how to delete a customer master record

[Former Member]

Hi

I have tried deleting customer master record by using transaction code xd06 and obr2

But after following all the steps it is still showing me the customer number in table kna1 and during F4 help

I want that the customer should not be shown in F4 help at all

Please suggest me a solution

Thanks and Regards

hi,

this is to inform you that,

you will be seeing in the customer master data and it will be deleted after archiving run only.

up to that time it will show in master data records with "MARKED FOR DELETION".

so dont worry on teh same.

it will be deleted on the next archiving run.

OR

you can run this report SAPF056D in the test run and delete it then.

First run the program SAPF047 in SE38 with background. While running this program, you have to ensure that no data is running for this customer. Next try with OBR2. Better try in development client and if you found okay, then execute in production client.

Hi Sunil,

As per my consideration, when we delete any customer master data, system only assign deletion flag to that data. reason behind it is that previous transactional data might me present in the system for this customer. It will always seen in F4 as it will present in the KNA1 but we can not use it further in any transaction.
