Error in ALE Service While Creation of Vendor Master

[Former Member]

hi,

I am using a scenario where a third party system is sending vendor master data to a R/3 system The file is picked up by the file adapter(sender) and mapped to IDOC format, using Idoc adapter (receiver). A Vendor is then created by posting the CREMAS03 IDOC into the R/3 system.

Everything goes fine till the Idoc comes into the R/3 system. There in BD87(Idoc Status Monitor), getting the "Error in ALE Service" error. When expanded further the specific error is that of "Cross-system company code xxxx does not exist". What is generally the cause of this error and how would I resolve it?

For those of you who have attended TBIT 40, this scenario is Example 1 - Creation of Vendor Master Data.

Any help would be appreciated?

regards,

SK

Hi,

Using some IDOcs you need to create a Cross-Company Code.

Please check your entries in table T001O ( Sale -->Modelling and implementing Business Processes --> Cross-Application Settings --> Global Organization Units --> Cross System Company Codes). You hace o create an entry for every Company toy want to create vendors.

Good Luck.

Hi,

have you tried filling segment E1LFB1M

with another company code (BUKRS)?

one more thing

if you want to be sure that you're using the right data

try to set your system to send the vendor data out

first - send it from BD14

and then you'll know which fields do you need

if you do that take a look at segment E1LFB1M

and check for BURKS

Michal,

Tried BD14 transaction as well and no luck so far. Basically the CompCode (BUKRS) that is being specified while doing message mapping is a valid CC which is present in the R/3 system.
