Business Partner for Customer(own plant) created as a person

[Former Member]

Hi

I have created a customer master that is representing my own plant. Shipping data for plant is maintained under STO customizing.

I have CIFed the customer master, but it has got created as a PERSON  and not the organization.

I have also CIFed the vendor master(representing the same plant), it has got created correctly as Orgnization.

Can anyboy explain me what happened wrong with my customer master.

Thanks

Hi Santosh

Create customer as company in ERP and then cif. not as Mr or Ms .

Also like without company code data just general and sorg data.

HI Suraj,

I checked in ERP.  the customer was created with Title: company only.

Also there was no data for this customer under companycode, except. terms of payment.

I blocked this customer using XD05 for the particular company code.  then again I CIFed it..

but still it's not changed.  Not sure what went wrong. any other clue?

Thanks

If I am not able to change this to Organization, will it affect anyway in general EWM scenarios..

Hi Santosh

Create customer with account group organization and cif. Possible when you are creating customer in ECC creating with non organizational account group. As account group ar assigned to classification in CRM/EWM.

the system which I am using, has a customer already created by someone else with the same account group 0120 : branch with incompany billing.  That customer had got created as organization in the EWM.  My customer has got created as person.  So i suppose there is no issue with account group.  I have below account groups in the system. All Std ones. what is the ideal account group that should be used for the customer which represents the Own plant.

I have created general customers with account group KUNA, still the issue is same. I have CIFed all general customers which have got created as PERSON in EWM. If possible, I can do screensharing, where I request you check the system issue.  Thanks in advance.

Hi  Santosh

In one of the book I read if your plant organization is vendor and customer.  In that case where you assign CRM011 at same BP you assign CRM004 - vendor  and CRM002 - Customer and id no with client ID.
