BAPI for creating customer

Former Member — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 19:31:48 GMT

Hello experts,

I need to use a BAPI for creating a customer in a program. I went through BAPI_CUSTOMER_CHANGEFROMDATA1 but it does not have the provision to enter accounting information (eg Recon account etc). Is there a BAPI which has all the fields that I can use?.

You can use the program RFBIDE00 to upload the customer Data .

Read the Program Documentation of the program, how to use etc,..

Hi Veena,

BAPI BAPI_CUSTOMER_CHANGEFROMDATA1 does have provision to enter Reconciliation Account in General Ledger. Check field CONTROL_ACCOUNT of BAPIKNA105.

Hello Veena

Using BAPI_CUSTOMER_CHANGEFROMDATA1 you must provide a reference customer of which all the accouting data are copied to the new customer. While some see this as a serious restriction I used this BAPI about two years ago for a customer project where new customers could register themselves via Webservice. The data were forwared via SAP-XI to the BAPI which eventually created the new debitor (using a certain reference customer).
