Hi Vag

Did External check box selected for CVI interface?

Hi Sanjay ,

The Number range is defined in the normal SPRO and not in the CVI , correct me if i'm wrong here .

Do let me know where exactly in the CVI .

The Number range is defined as Exnternal and the same has been assigned to the grouping / account group .

Hi Sanjay,

I am using Vendor Like UI so my direction should be Vendor to BP , correct me if i am wrong here .

More over the path you have specified here , when i select the Same Number check box, it gives an error saying the number range is different.

Hi

No direction should be BP to Vendor as you are creating BP first.

Yes this is issue I Guess.

Can you reconfirm and post screen shot for XKN1?

Which BP Group is assigned to Vendor Account? It should have same number range defined MDGIMG

[former_member226173 · Accepted solution]

Can you let me know the T code for that ??

You can compare number ranges in XKN1 for Vendor account group and BUCF for BP Grouping

Hi Sanjay ,

Have a look at the below link , Below is the exact scenario that i was facing .

The bottom line is that no matter what combination of External BP -> Internal Vendor or Internal BP -> External Vendor the number range should be same to make the MDG field enabled in the Vendor Like UI , else it will not work.

PS : Works fine if you are using the standard BP UI.

Hi Vag

Is below sentence followed by you?

The way I configured our system is to have both BP and Vendor number ranges external and I have the flag "Same" ticked for both directions. That worked for me.

Hi Sanjay,

If you see the first comment for Michael on the other link it states what are the combinations that the External Number range works for Vendor Like UI .

Only if the combination has the same Number range then the Like UI works , Else it does not .

You will need to configure the corresponding BP Grouping number range assignment to be external. Please post a screenshot of the configurations you performed for the BP and Vendor to help us understand your problem.
