Hi,

try with the following

BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA or you see following business object KNA1 through SWo1 transaction.

If there is no suitable BAPI, you can consider using function module ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION.

This is a remote enabled fm that can call any transaction in SAP. The input data is passed in tables parameter Using_Tab. This tables parameter has a structure like BDCDATA.

May be you can use this fm first with minimum data to create the customer and then use change BAPI to create additional data for the created customer.

BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEDATA1 or BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEDATA is only for use with SAP Online Store or SAP Internet Sales . If you have access to OSS please read note 390045. You should try ALE/ batch input .

If you still want to use BAPI , just read the FM documentation and you will see what data is copied from reference customer , so you can create one reference customer for each account group and use it while calling the BAPI.

Cheers.

Hi,

Can you try the BAPI funciton module BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1 for creating customer.

If you need know how to fill the BAPI structure, please check the where used list and use this.

Thanks,

Hi,

Abhishek

Please Use this bapi

SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL

I don't think it will ask  for any reference customer number.

If this Bapi is not helpful to you then u can use Bapi

BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1.

Thanks
