Duplicate Vendor master check

[kapil_mehta]

Hi FI Gurus

I want to configure system to ensure warning/error message is given while creating vendor/customer master data if it already exists with same VAT registration number.

I want to use "Change Message Control" functionality in SAP, but I do not see relevant message in OBA5.

I think there are standard SAP message 273/272 for this requirement. In system these are seen in SM31 -> T100S. But when I go to "Change message control", message is not seen.

1.) How can I use these existing standard SAP message ?

2.) What are alternative in standard SAP to meet above requirement ? <We do not want to use user exit>

3.) Is there a standard SAP message available for PAN based check ?

Thanks for feedback.

Regards

Hello Kapil

Did you use application area as F2 in OBA5, i could see message 272 and 273 in OBA5 when application area is selected as F2. Please find below screenshot.

Hello Kapil

In display view you will not able to see messages, as you need to add message 272 and 273 please select change view (Development system) and select new entries options, select application area as F2 then  messages 272 and 273 will be available for selection.

Hi Kapil

The solution proposed by should work perfectly. You also need to set up these messages in OBMSG as well in addition to OBA5.

For PAN No validation, there is no standard validation, but you have to use an user exit. The below link will help you for the same:

Hi Sanil

I am able to see message in OBMSG but I do not see them in OBA5.

Issue persists as I am unable to use these messages for validation.

Hi,

please check this note 305201.  Also please check when the  documents are created in FI side then this table BSIP should contain the entry for that document so that next time if similar document is getting created then it will display the error or warning message based on the setting.

Note: In the vendor master data  'Double invoice check' field should be marked Payment transaction accounting tab.  More over you can debugg this function module FI_DUPLICATE_INVOICE_CHECK

to find the reason why duplicate invoice is not working. This shold solves the issue.

Best regards,

Hi

I believe the query was on the master data creation and not on invoice posting duplicate check.
