Business Partner transfer from Feeder System Error

Former Member

Hi Guys We have an issue where we are trying to transfer a Vendor from ECC to GTS. Now there is an issue with the Vendor, its missing 'the other city with the other PO code'

This makes the Vendor incomplete. Hence when we try via 'Intial Transfer of Master Data' it doesnt get replicated to GTS as a result of the above error.

Question here is. Since the Master Data is in production we cannot change that, is there anyway we can create the same BP in GTS, and help GTS recognize this as a transferred one.

Example - If i create a PO with the Vendor, we get a Customs Partner missing error even if the BP is created in GTS.

This is due to the cause the BP is assigned to GTS Logical system group, can this be changed to the Feeder system, so that it can recognize this and not throw a block at the PO level.

Thanks

Carl

Hi Carl,

As suggested above, looks like you have 2 options to fix it nicely or 1 messy & difficult option :

1) Relax the requirement for BP adress data in GTS. This should be possible in general SPRO netweaver settings. Then retransfer the vendor.

2) Fill this 'missing' data during transfer from ECC in a user exit. If its only 1 or 2 BPs filling this information in debugger would be even quicker.

3) Change the pointer table to link your manually created BPs to ECC logical system vendors. I`d also strongly discourage you from attempting this unless you have complete knowledge of the master data distribution model.

This issue is due to some of restrictions have been defined for BP on GTS, here PO code is mandatory when creating business partner.

The workaround posted by you cannot work correctly, we don't recommend it except you completely know the relevant mechanism of BP mapping.

Hi Carl,

You don't say WHY you can't change the data in the feeder system.  If it is incomplete, then why should anyone object to it being corrected??

Anyway, the course of action you're suggesting would require considerable technical assistance, and I can't recommend it.  With considerably less skilled technical assistance, you should be able to transfer the vendor using the standard program (in the GTS cockpit) in "debug" mode, either (preferably) adding the missing data, or skipping the check error.

But then consider the impact of any future changes to that vendor in the feeder system - they won't be transferred unless those changes include completion of the missing information.
