How to load the customers in MDG (not created as BP in ECC - reuse mode)

Hi

I have a unique situation and need suggestion.

We are creating BP from MDG which is implemented on top of ecc (not a hub) BP's are created for specific account group from MDG and transferred to CRM (through PI - SOA activated) - working fine.

Prior to MDG implementation, for a specific account group, the customers were created as normal customers and not as BP in ECC, hence can't view it or change it from MDG.

The requirement is to create the data in MDG for those specific account groups and move it to CRM. I can create one by one records in MDG and data is transferred to CRM without any issue but there are many such records which we want to move it to MDG from ECC. Don't want to create it manually one by one.

Any idea whether this is feasible? If yes how? Can we use Import option and create customers for those specific account groups?

Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Kiran

You should be able to use transaction MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT to create those missing customers from existing BP's (or vice versa).

Thanks Abdullah.

If I use this cockpit, whether I will able to load the specific data in MDG reuse tables? We want to load specific account group data which is available in ECC tables as customers and not as BP.

Hi Kiran

You need to create BP's in ECC with synchornization of customers first in ECC(For which BP s not created) Then upload these customers in MDG reuse tables.Without creating BP in ECC in add on mode it is not possible to load only customers into MDG reuse tables.

Thanks a lot Sanjay. Is it possible to change the normal customers to BP? Which program you can use it and what would be the impact with the current customers?

Hi Kiran

It is possible to sync normal customers with BP;s in ECC with above transaction and there is no impact on normal customers in this case.

Hello Sanjay

One more query. What about number range? Whether there will be duplicate record or the customers will get updated with new number?

Dear Kiran,

the number generated will depend on the way you are doing the CVI intergation is done.

you can refer to the below link to understrand how the numnber range behave in different cases.

Thanks Sankar. Data is already there in ECC and now we want to change it as BP. Just wanted to know what would happen to the customer number?

E.g Customer - Number 1000000 converted as BP. What would be the number for this new entry? Is it same or different?

First, you need to create missing BP's. In order to do that, you need to use transaction MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT. For that to work, you need to set up CVI from direction Customer --> BP. This will dictate the number range status depending on what Customer Account Group is mapped to what BP Grouping and whether the BP Grouping number range is internal or external. If external, the numbers should be harmonized (customer and BP have the same number). Again, it is up to you set this up.

Once the missing BP's are created, you need to switch CVI for MDG to work. The CVI direction should be BP --> Customer. Again, the same concept as far as number range is concerned apply here.

Hi Kiran

Youi need to define CVI img first like nodes Define BP Role for Direction Customer to BP and number range in Define Number Assignment for Direction Customer to BP and create all BPs first in ECC may be by LSMW and then import it in MDG tables.

Hello Sanjay

Thanks. Data is already created in ECC before MDG implementation but its without BP. Now we want that data in MDG. How to do that?
