Custom object in MDM

[Former Member]

for the customer object in the MDM. When we use an idoc through XI to create the customer in SAP. How does SAP recommend we get the SAP Customer Number that was created back in the MDM? Is there capability to handle that through XI, or is there an interface that would have to send that back to MDM from SAP?

Hi,

Well, I understand the issue you are facing. There is concept in SAP R/3 system Internal Number generation.

If you want, get back Customer Number to MDM using IDoc through XI using IDoc adapter you cannot.

However, there are ways to get back Customer Number, which is created by SAP R/3.

<b>Using RFC adapter</b> --> create RFM/ BAPI for the same IDoc structure fields in RFM and you must have a Customer number filed (KUNNR)in export parameter.

<b>Using ABAP Proxy</b> -->ABAP Proxy, you can directly manipulate the inbound Interface in SAP R/3 system

itself.

Then you can get back Customer Number to MDM.

If your are satisfied, give the rating as points.

Sincerely,
