Hi All,
We are working on Supplier MDG scenario and using standard data model 'BP' and all the standard UI & its related configurations as provided by SAP.
The MDG & ECC 6 system are residing on the same system.
After WF completion & successful data replication to base ECC system, we are able to see data reaching BUT000 & LFA1 tables but we are NOT seeing data reaching the LFB1 & LFM1 tables.
Appreciate your valuable suggestions in trouble shooting this matter.
Thanks & regards,
Vinayak Kale
Hello Vinayak,
Did you get any solution to this issue? Please share if there is any miss in config.

Hi Vinayak:
I'm facing the same problem with the LFB1 and LFM1 tables. How do you solve this?
Best Regards!!

Hi Vinayak,
We faced the same issue. Please set BP Role Category for Direction BP to Vendor. Please go through configuring CVI integration part where setting the roles is explained in the below link
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-24654.
Also please check the roles and authorizations to LFB1 and LFA1. When creating a new supplier, please fill the company code and purchase organization data with a role. Also Check whether you have assigned agents to approve the data for LFA1 and LFB1 data.
Regards

Hi Goutham Thanks for your reply in this reference, appreciate! The configuration for CVI integration has alredy been followed as per the link specified. Thanks for providing the link though. We are being able to update data to BUT000 & LFA1 tables, but NOT able to update data to LFB1 & LFM1 active tables. The user-id has all the authorization (except the Basis role), so just hoping that the roles and authorizations should not be an issue here. While creating a vendor, we are entering much of the CoCode/PurOrg related data along with the role (CVI: FI Vendor). Also the agent (US-user) assignment (Demo system - same user creates & approves) is done appropriately and we are able to see the workflow completetion successfully. I am personally debugging the ABAP for t-code 'SWO1' since last 2 weeks but its being an Object Oriented programming, hard to find what I am doing wrong here. Can you please help a bit further since we are near completion of our demo and only this item is troubling us a lot. Very much appreciate your help in this matter. Thanks a lot! Best regards, Vinayak
Hi Goutham,
Thanks for the suggestion. Even I was having similar thought on this point so today I have tried as much combination as possible but it hasn't helped much.
Below are some of the options that I used today as a part of the permutation combination in this reference.
Business Partner Grouping | Roles | Account Group |
External Number Assignment | CVI: FI Vendor | Goods Supplier |
Internal Number Assignment | Contract Partner | One-time Vend. (int.no.assgnmt) |
SRM | Insurance Tracking Vendor | One-time Venders |
Synchron. BP w Vendor | Landlord w. Vendor Account | Special Vendor |
Manager w. Vendor Account | Suppliers (training) | |
Partner w. Vendor Account | Vendors | |
Plant | Vendors Training | |
Purchasing Firm | ||
Vendor |
In some cases, it just updated the table BUT000 and in other cases it also updated the table LFA1 along with BUT000. But as of now, I could not update the LFB1 & LFM1 tables even though all the supplier created were having significant test data in Company Code & Purchasing Organizations tabs.
Just a question - Ref: MDGIMG under Process Modeling -> Workflow -> Configure Workflow Task. When we click 'Activate event linking' under 'CA-MDG-APP-SUP', we see only the event 'LFA1 CREATED Activated' under the WS54600005. Should we also see similar links here for LFB1 / LFM1? Is this possible? We tried to do this as well but it does not appear a feasible option.
I feel like, some other customization is missing which is resulting in no updates to LFB1 / LFM1 tables. Can you please let me know if any other thoughts that may come to your mind that shall be helpful in resolving this issue.
Since you have already done good amount of work in this domain, am just hopeful of getting some valuable suggestion to crack this tough nut. Please let me know if any further points so as to resolve this issue.
Thanks for your help in this reference.
Best regards,
Vinayak
Hi Vinayak,
it's hardly possible to analyze the issue w/o having access to the system. Maybe you should contact SAP directly via OSS.
Regarding the issue description it is not clear in which system you actually miss the data? Is it stored correctly in the MDG hub and not transferred correctly to the base ECC? Or is the data not stored at all in MDG hub? How do you send the data from MDG to base ECC? Via service or ALE? Did you already check if the data is in the message (e.g. via SXMB_MONI for service or WE02 for ALE)?
Best regards
Michael

Hi Michael !
Thanks much for the reply. Would like to clarify the queries in the below email.
Knowing the constraint that such issue can not be resolved without actual access to the system, appreciate some hints that would help resolve this issue based on the prior experience in this domain.
The system is MDG EhP5 ECC6 system. MDG & ECC both are on the same system. The complete vendor master data appears correctly in the staging tables as expected. We are trying to replicate the master data into the base ECC6 system and hence would be happy to see the data in the base ECC6 Vendor (BUT000, LFA1, LFB1, LFM1) tables. The master data replication is happening but its only getting partially replicated to the base ECC system i.e. we are able to see the vendor master data in tables BUT000 & LFA1 but not in LFB1 & LFM1.
SAP-PI / idocs are not being used for the replication since its just being replicated to the base ECC system (though via ALE) itself. All the SAP standard workflows are been used as specified in the below link:-
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/70/47f6938f70420f801be80a0df9fc30/frameset.htm.
Thanks again for the reply.
best regards,
Vinayak
Hi Vinayak,
OK, thanks for adding further information. According to your system description, this is how it should work:
Now you can compare the standard process with your one. Check the setup of your MDG system. Check how the data flow is currently working in your system. Check where the data is lost. e.g:
Try to identify the place where the data gets lost. Then we could try to find out why it's happening.
Best regards
Michael
The system details are - MDG EhP5 ECC6.
