Converting field NAME1 to fields NAME_LAST and NAME_FIRST

[Former Member]

Hi to all of you,

I have a question concerning to the next issue:

When we run transaction JUCDCM (Convert customer and vendor masters to SAP Business Partner), the information contained in field NAME1 from customer/vendor master is migrated to field NAME_LAST of Business Partner. The issue here is that Business Partner has <i>two</i> fields to fill the first name and last name of the customer/vendor, these fields are: NAME_LAST and NAME_FIRST. So, after running transaction JUCDCM, we have the <i>complete</i> name of customer/vendor only in field NAME_LAST, and field NAME_FIRST remains empty.

Do you know a report or something that we can use to cut the information from field NAME1 and distribute it into fields NAME_LAST and NAME_FIRST??

Thanks in advanced for your help.

Regards,

Miyuki Quiroz.

Hi Miyuki,

the conversion calls the standard function module for the mapping of an organizational address (which the customer master has) to a personal address in case the business partner will be created as a person.

In this mapping the field name2 is mapped to name_first.

So either change your customer master to have the first name in the second name field or you have to change the report.

There is no BADI here´.

Carsten
