MDM to PI to ECC for vendor creation

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus',

I am having a scenario that I am working using PI and ECC.

Scenario:- Vendors are getting created in MDM with MDM Global ID. MDM sends it to ECC via PI for vendors to be created in ECC. MDM will not send the vendor numbers, and vendor numbers are created in ECC and then synch back.

What we are doing:-

1) We have configured in PI to pick the file based on the interval.

2) PI will call the BAPI to get the next vendor number from ECC and pass it to the IDOC with the vendor number.(We are locking any vendor creation via XK01, so no direct vendors are getting created)

3) We have enhanced the LFA1 table with the z-GLBMDM field to persist that data.

Problem:-

I am able to post the IDOC but I am not able to post this z-field using this IDOC. IDOC has been extended.

Can any help me in telling which is the user exit and BADI where I need to code for this zfield population into LFA1.

Thanks a lot in advance,

Mahesh

Thanks Michal Krawczyk.

Thing is this note doesn't talk about z fields in LFA1 table, but still would help me. I need the exact BADI or user exit which would help getting this done.
