Hey Guys,
I have this scenario wherein we have to restrict the creation of customers according to the sales area and account group. Here is an example.
Suppose I have a domestic customer say D01. Account group that I am using for this domestic customer is D001. Sales area is say D001/D1/D1. Now for exports I have E01 as customer. Account group is E001. Sales area is E001/E1/E1.
Scenario is
I should be able to create D01 only with account group D001 and in sales area D001/D1/D1. Customer D01 should not get created in account group E001 and sales area E001/E1/E1. Now to differentiate export and domestic customers we are using 'D' as a prefix for domestic customers and 'E' for export customers.
Same thing applies for Exports. Customer E01 should only get created with account group E001 and sales area E001/E1/E1.
Please advise on the same.
Appreciate a quick response.
Thanks in advance.

You can setup a different number range for your domestic and international customers.
In this way, Number ranges will go with your Account Group nomenclature.
IMG>Financial Accounting->Account Receivable and Accounts Payable>Customer Accounts>Master Data>Preparations for creating customer master data-->Create Number Ranges for Customer Account Groups/Assign Number Ranges for Customer Account Groups.
Hope this helps.

Vivek

Thanks everyone for your responses. But my issue still remains unresolved. I want to restrict customers from being created. I have already configured the no. range assignment accordingly. But cant figure out how to restrict the creation of customers.
