hi sri

hope this would help u..i found t n sdn Procedure

1. Review the number ranges that have been created: The number ranges for the business partner in the Best Practices are defined as follows:

IMG u2192 Cross Application Components u2192 SAP Business Partner u2192 Business Partner u2192 Basic Settings u2192 Number Ranges and Groupings u2192 Define Number Ranges

01: The Regular business partner uses this number range: 2100000000 to 2199999999 and 03: 7100000000 to 7199999999 is used in the setting above for the ship-to party. Both are internal number ranges.

XX is the external number assignment used to create the SD reference customer.

2. The account group DEBI must temporarily be assigned to this external number assignment for the creation of this business partner:

IMG u2192 Financial Accounting u2192 Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable u2192 Customer Accounts u2192 Master Data u2192 Preparations for creation customer master data u2192 Assign Number Ranges to Customer Account Groups:

Set account group: DEBI to external number range XX for the Business Partner creation step.

3. Create an SD customer:

Call transaction XD01: Easy Access u2192 Logistics u2192 Sales and Distribution u2192 Master Data u2192 Business Partner u2192 Customer u2192 Create u2192 Complete

Hi,

if you follow the direction prince already mentioned - that will help. Additionally you could also prepopulate the reference customer field for e.g. FPP1 by using the customizing of table TEKND (e.g. via SM30).
