getting Internal error: Refe. customer does not exist in master record

[Former Member]

Hi ,

I am using SOAP<>PI7.1<>RFC (BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1)

I am always getting back getting Internal error: Refe. customer does not exist in master record in the bAPI response.I have done the following to checkl the mappings:

(1) Used mapping test editor to see if the data is getting populated ok from SOAP request to RFC request

(2) Using the same data to load customer into Backend using ABAP testing tool(Which works well)

I have also checked the RFC adaptor connection properties which matches with the correct SAP backend

So what may be getting wrong?

I have done the following:

(1) Previously I was using a DIALOG user in the usid/pwd section of the receiver RFC adaptor,now I have created a communication user.

(2) The data present in the above instance is being successfully inserted when testing thru the test tool in SAP 6 backend

Do I have to do anything additonal?

Hi All,

I am still getting the same error(Its able to get data back from RFC,but unable to find the correct data).What userid and password should I provide in the receiver RFC adaptor.I am using my GUI userid and password.The training document says to use "Communication User Id and password".I dont get ant authorization errors though.Was wondering if the userid has anything to do with executing the BAPI.

Hi KK,

I checked the logs and the fields are getting mapped correctly.I am populating the below elements:

PI_COPYREFERENCE

PI_CREDIT_CONTROL_FLAG

PI_PERSONALDATA

Not sure what I am doing erong here.

make sure u don't have special or extra char (like space, case sensitive) in the data to BAPI parameters

You can switch on logging for synchronous calls in PI ( I am assuming the QOS is BE in your case) and see if the request payload to the RFC adapter is getting framed correctly.
