Prevent Duplicate Master creation

[Former Member]

Dear Experts

When we are trying to create customer masters we found that there is system prompt that "customer's found with same address".I want to know that system is prompting me if there is a similar/duplicate customer already existing , is there any specific configuration settings for masters or is it default setting in SAP.

Also is it applicable to vendor masters also or not?

Regards

Yes standard feature is that if you create duplicate customer record, it will give only a warning message. If you want to change this, run SM30, key in Table V_T100C, select Display or Maintain, set App area F2. Here you can change current settings.

configuration not working . it is not providing error for same address, name, pin-code. it require user exit.

Hi

As per Lakshmipathi sir you can check that in SM30, beside this I would also suggest that check the transaction OBMSG for application arae F2, where these messages are maintained and at this place you can convert the message from warniong to error.

Sanjeev,

This is a Standard feature of SAP be it customer, Vendor or material duplication masters are not allowed you need not go for configuration.

The moment you try to create a customer who is already existing, the SAP system will throw an error, that the customer is already existing.
