Hi,

BAPI BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1 should serve your purpuose. You will have to write a program that will do the following:

Uplaod the File from Prenetation server--->Pass the Data to the BAPI Structure> Call the BAPI-->Do a Commit if Sucessful.

See: http://abap.wikiprog.com/wiki/BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1

Another way is via LSMW and also via BDC.

Hi srinu,

i think you want to create customer master creation using bapi . right?. i am providing the information pls chk it out.

use bapi 'BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATE' to create customer and bapi

'BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE' to create vendor.

For customer and vendor master data there are also direct input programs you

can use.(RFBIDE00 and RFBIKR00) Check out transaction SXDA (data Transfer

workbench).

see this link

Hi Guru's...

i am unable to go forward...

can you please help me out in this customer master creation....

what are the fileds i am using while creating in XD01 (account group,name,country)then i am able create and the customer number is autogenerated.

using same field values i am trying to test the BAPI initially but i am unable to execute the BAPI BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFORMDATA1.

in this one draw back is when compare to the XD01 peocess is account group.

account group is mandataory in XD01 process and in BAPI test there i sno field for giving this account group field value.....may be this is one reason....(if it is mandatory where i have to provide in BAPI test..)

and i tried in BAPI test using customer reference ID also....

please guide me....

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I don't know the BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1, but maybe it can only get the account group from the customer you have to pass as a reference.

We use the SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL to create customers and it works just fine for the moment. You can fill the account group in the i_kna1 structure.

Btw, if you don't manage to program the logic around the bapi to process your input file and execute it multiple times, and if the volume of data is not that high... maybe you can use a recording/lsmw as explained in http://www.saptechnical.com/Tutorials/LSMW/Recording/Recording.htm ?

Kind regards,

HI Srinivas,

Its correct that you could use LSMW recording to create the customer master, and you could use this LSMW to upload the file containing the n number of customers, thereby ther LSMW creates a BDC session wherein you could run the session in background.

I do not find any problem in this, if that is not please clear us the requirement you have.
