Hi.

Is there any module to create vendor not in dialog mode?

to my best knowledge: there is no such FM, but this time I would be happy, if I'd proove to be wrong

Hi Marat

You can try BAPI: BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE to create vendors for accounts payable.

Thanks

It is difficult to prove Eric wrong Anytime. :).

Sorry mate, there is no such FM actually. There is a BAPI to create online only.

Marat,

You can create a vendor using the BAPI, 'BAPI_BUSINESS_PARTNER_CREATE'.

Which version are you in? Because this is not available in ECC 6.0

Hello,

We are in ECC 5.0 (4.6 C0 and it is available. I cannot comment on ECC6.0 but I dont think SAP will discontinue the BAPI unless for a valid reason.

I checked our systems (4.7 5.0 and 6.0), the BAPI was avaliable until 4.7. On 5.0 it does not exist at all. It was in function group BUBA, but the whole function group is marked as obsolate on 4.7 already. On the toher hand the FM was suitable to create business partner (as the name indicates also), not vendor.

In reply to ERIC,

You are right, the FM which I have mentioned is obselete. But SAP has replaced it with a new FM

BAPI_BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA . Now vendor is also a business partner in the SAP system. So

Ideally you should be able to use the above FM. I have not tried it by myself.
