Vendor Integration to ECC - Financial data

[natalia_goyenechea]

Hi Colleagues,

When replicating a Vendor from Sourcing to ECC all the mapped data is enough to create the vendor record.

But all the Financial data of the vendor, that is needed in ECC to be able to transact financially with the vendor, is not replicated.

The most important field is the "Company Code", wich exists in Sourcing, but is not part of the vendor record and is not sent to ECC.

As this information is very important for customer, what would be the approach in this case?

Would we need to create an enhancement to map all that data?

Thanks

Hi Picu,

the financial data like company code are not part of the standard interface definition because they are typically not relevant for Sourcing processes. E.g. you can create a purchasing contract in ERP even if vendor is blocked or not created for a company code. For some of our customers however the company code information is considered important enough to be at least visible in SAP Sourcing. The enhancement options described in the Configuration Guide for ERP Integration with SAP Sourcing should be able to satisfy such requirements. Typical activities are enhancements to the standard PI mapping and creation of extension fields in SAP Sourcing. If you make sure that the extension ID that you use on the Supplier object matches the field name that you use in the xsd definition, the system will transfer the values automatically during imports.

Hope this is helpful.
