SIMG_CFMENUORFBOBB3 - Check Search Fields for (Vendor) Matchcodes

In this activity you can decide which search fields in the vendor master record will be used in matchcode IDs.

Since the search fields for a vendor's name (NAME1) and city (ORT01) require proper capitalization, substitute fields are created for these fields. All entries in search fields for which substitute fields exist are converted into capital letters in the substitute fields. Because of this, you do not have to use exact capitalization when you enter a vendor's name or city during a matchcode selection.

NAME1, NAME2, and ORT01 are entered as search fields in the standard SAP software.

In the standard matchcode IDs, substitute field MCOD1 is entered instead of NAME1, and substitute field MCOD3 is entered instead of ORT01.

The NAME02 field is not used in the matchcode IDs provided with the standard software. Therefore you can set up another search field in this step instead of NAME02. For example, you can you can use STRAS instead of NAME2 if you need the street address as a search field. To do this, you must enter field STRAS instead of NAME2.

If possible do not make changes to the standard software. If you do need to change the standard NAME1 or ORT01 search fields, you also have to then update the standard matchcode IDs. If you need additional search fields which are not included in the standard software, you can also make use of the NAME2 field.

For further information see the documentation in the Maintain matchcodes for vendors activity.
