MDM 3.0: error when deleting a Standard Address

[Former Member]

Hi,

when loading delections in MDM 3.0, the function module BUPA_ADDRESS_REMOVE can't delete addresses if in the table BUT021_FS the field XDFADU is = 'X'.

This means that I can't delete a Standard Address.

Do you know how can I by-pass this problem?

I need to delete those addresses.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Fabrizio,

first of all this is a correct behaviour of the SAP Business Partner (BP). The address handling is designed in a way, that you cannot delete a default address if a BP already had one. The question is what do you want to do with the addresses? Do you want to delete all addresses of a BP? Then the answer is that this is not possible (at least it is not possible without modifying SAP code). If you want to replace the standard address, the sollution is to import the new standard address first, change the "is standard address" flag and then delete the old one.

Kind regards

Michael
