Change the bu_group using VMD_EI_API

Former Member — Tue, 25 Sep 2018 12:52:48 GMT

Hello, i'm using the class VMD_EI_API to create a BP and extend it to Vendor, using the roles FLVN00 and FLVN01, but i'm facing a problem, i cant change the BU_GROUP and use a Z, because the class doesnt have a corresponding parameter for BU_GROUP. So default is 0002, the interval for this group is A - ZZZZ, but my BP and Vendor number is external and a only number interval, and then, it doesnt create the BP, only the vendor.

How can i solve this problem? is it possible to create the vendor and bp with a external LIFNR using only numbers?

Already found it, its a configuration.

Go to SPRO

Cross-Application Components -> Master Data Synchronization -> Customer/Vendor Integration -> Business partner settings -> Settings for vendor integration -> Field Assignment for Vendor Integration ->Assign Keys -> Define Number Assignment for Direction Vendor to BP.

There you can set the BU_GROUP that will be defined when creating a vendor through VMD_EI_API, this class creates the vendor and the BP at the same time.
