Mass update contract account : EMIGALL or BAPI

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are migrating  dunning procedure to dunning strategy in ECC6.

So we have to clear dunning procedure for all contract account (5 000 000) and update dunning strategy on the same time (only 1 strategy).

We think to use :

- specific program which call bapi_isuaccount_change in parallel mode

- or EMIGALL

Do you know what is the best way to mass update contract account ?

Thanks

Mathieu

Mathieu:

Program RFKK_UPDATE_MASTERDATA is provided for that purpose.

Hi William an thanks,

Could you explain what the program do ?

I read that we can use event ISU_SAMPLE_1044 to change dunning strategy.

Is it faster than a parallel program ?

Thanks,

Mathieu

Mathieu:

The program calls the events for master data changes with collections - so event 1044 is already used in the program.  It would operate based on your logic and your config in the posting areas.

You could copy it and adjust the selection parameters to make it more useful with parallel processing.  I would not expect a long runtime though.

Hi and thanks for your answers.

But RFKK_UPDATE_MASTERDATA is used for Grouping Contract Account :

And in my project we won't use Groups.

We want dunning by strategy for each contract account.

So, we will use bapi_isuaccount_change in parallel mode to update procedure & strategy.

With EMIGALL we can't update strategy (FKKVP-STRAT) because it is not an updatable field.

Mathieu:

Just some clarification - the program does update both group and strategy.  There is no application requirement for the dunning procedure to be cleared either - it is simply ignored once strategy is in place - so there is not a mechanism for removing it.
