Customize Data Cleansing

[Former Member]

Hi Everybody,

today I've started to customize Data Cleansing in our CRM System to get rid of all the Duplicate Accounts we have. I have two main problems:

1. I create a cleannsing case in Trasaction BP by marking two Business Partners and right-click to get the context menu and choose "create data cleansing case". The cleansing case is sucessfully created.

Now I start Transaction BUPA_CLEAR and open this case. In a popup I'm asked for "No Referencing Objects Are Registered for the Current Case. Should Determination Now Take Place Online? (All Changes to the Last Processed Case Are Saved)" I choose yes. Now a divided window appears which shows me both partners. What I expect now from the transaction is to show me also the Business Transactions related to the Business Partner. I've checked in TA CRMD_BUS2000126 that there are Transaction for that partner, but they don't appear.

What must I do in the customizing? The documentation at <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40/helpdata/en/35/16dc2c1f9911d6b1d200508b5d5211/frameset.htm">Data Cleansing</a> and in SPRO does not rearly help.

2. When I leave BUPA_CLEAR after I've opened a cleansing case I get the info message "Customizing is missing (table TBZ5*)" two times. What could be the case for that?

HI Gregor.

Did you eventually find the solution? I think I have the same problem and I think I did what was to be done in customizing.

One thing about which I'm not sure are the tresholds.

the F1 says:

If the duplicate check is not called in dialog (e.g.BAPIs, Batch Input or direct input),

no dataset is created if a duplicate is found with a higher percentage match than the specified threshold.

but I don't see any difference if I put 99 instead 0.

The main problem is that in fact I can compare nothing.

There are no subtrees to expand.

Could you please take a quick look at customizing I did for it and its results?

I put some screenshots on my website: http://www.lucasdippel.vel.pl/

Any comment would be appreciated.

Hello Lucas,

I've main this values:

Table  Field   Thershold Index Active
BUT000 PARTNER 19,0      x

Have you tried the cleansing with Organizations? I think you've used Persons.

Gregor, thank You for reply.

Actually I didn't understand what You menan with "cleansing with Organizations? I think you've used Persons"...

Anyway I discovered what it was, but it didn't solve the problem I had.

I need to compare the basic address data and data dependent to this addsess. But I can't.

Do You think It is possible?

What should I configure?

I changed the screenshots, so you can see what I'm talking about on http://www.lucasdippel.vel.pl/

Thank You, Lucas

Hello Gregor,

right now i am in the same situation as you were in Aug. 4th (want to bring Data Cleansing to run and get exactly the same messages).

Maybe you have already found the solution for the problem in the meantime.

If this is the case, it would be great when you publish the solution here !

Best regards and thanks in advance

Hi Arno,

I've opened also an OSS Message. They pointed me to Note 436465. But this was not applicable because we are on SP 7. But they also told me that in Transaction BUSWU02 you have to enshure that all Folders without description are deleted.

If you want to move Contact Persons from one Organization to another you have to look on Note 830239.

Gregor
