Question: Hello.
I would like to know all the steps needed for updating a sales info structure (S003).
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Luisa Delgado
Answer:
S003 is SAP standard info structure.
You need to ensure that statistical value field in Customer Master & Material Master is properly update. Since I don't have SAP system now hence can not give exact field name.

Answer:
Customer Statistics Group on Sales tab of customer master
Material Statistics Group on Sales Org 2 tab of material master
Question: Hi,
When I save a delivery note, the number generated and then the message("Update was terminated") is poped up, which means the delivery note did not been saved in database successfully.
the detailed information is:
Update was terminated

Error info... B2 001: Local logical system is not defined
Answer:
Hi,
This implies to me that you have an EDI output type assigned to the delivery and that the client on which you are processing the transaction has no logical system assigned to it. You can see the local logical system by viewing the client settings in transaction SCC4.
If you do have an EDI output type, try temporarily deleting the condition record and raising the delivery again - this will at least confirm/eliminate this possibility.
Hope this helps,

Question: When create a delivery by transaction VL01 from a standard order, the delivery was successfully assigned a number. But after refresh, received a message "update was terminated". So actually, there is no delivery created.
In SM13, the error shows as below:
Function module OUTBOUND_CALL_00501015_E
Status Update was terminated
Report
Line
Error text
B2 001: Local logical system is not defined
When can I do to fix this error?
Answer:
The most probable reasons could be:
1) Number range clash with other doucment which is having same number. this could be because of changing assigmnment of no. range object which is assigned to other doc types.
2) (wrong)Changes in customization for statistical updates
Check for above two
Regards
Answer:
Most probably this is the number range problem...check for the latest FI document range .....or material document number range.
Answer:
Hi there:
Don't think it is number range problem. Error message is point to RFC destinations. If CRM is involved, see OSS note 441352 and see if it is applicable.

Question: Dear experts,
We had a problem when we do goods issue, the message pop up by the system "Express document "Update was terminated" received from author" .. a document number is issued but no actual database update, please help , we are thinking if there's any problem with number range issue, thanks.

Answer:
Hello,
Take a look at transaction SM13. That will give you a better indication of what went wrong.
Trust this helps.
Regards,
Jan Pel
Answer:
You can also look at the output that you have specified for delivery. If you specify that a delivery note must print this will normally take place when you post goods issue. If the output cannot process this will give you an update error

hi,
I too came across the similar sort of problem while saving the sales order after deleting the second line item and addinng other item instead..
But system didn't let us saving the order by popping up the express doc. saying that duplication is not allowed
we got rid of this problem by entering the item giving no 30 manually.
I belive system stored the item number 20 eventhough it was deleted.
It's quiet strange.
Question: Dear sapfans,
In SIS, Tcode: MCTA.-table S001.
Why system update S001..- according to "created date"in SO..not "document date"?
Is it possible to change the setting that system update S001 according to "document date?
I need your hints.
Many thanz.
Wong
Answer:
Hello,
Unfortunately: you are not able to make any changes related to SAP delivered InfoStructures. The only thing I can suggest (and which is done in a lot of cases) to copy S001 to a custom InfoStructure (e.g. S501) (including the update groups) and then make the required changes.
Please keep in mind, that if you follow the above suggestion you will need to load the newly created InfoStructure with the current data and that can take some preparation and time. And lost of time if you have a fairly large operation.
And depending on the release and the status of your support packages you might have to apply a number of OSS notes to ensure that the (re)load is working as intended.
Question: Dear gurus,
Currently I'd like to update two/more entries in a SIS for one event. (e.g. when Sales Order is created, the incoming order will be update. I'd like to distribute a portion of the incoming order to another customer based on my own logic) Is it possible? I think i can't make use of creating another update rule as I don't know how many target customers I should distribute the amount to. I tried to look at the user exits but it seems not useful in this case. Any ideas
Thanks a lot.
Answer:
hmmm... base on what you mention, I can't see a way to get it done. Just for benefit of doubt, do you mind giving some examples for your scenario?
Question: I have created a new pricing table in SD, and am trying to populate that table. I am unable to figure it out how to add data to that table.
I even tried creating a new pricing record for a condition (VK11), and saved it. But the table (calling it A914) is not getting updated, assuming it were to be updated by transactional data.
Answer:
You are follwoing the correct procedure. Pricing tables are updated by creating condition records against it. It seems you are missing a setting. Make sure that in VK11 you are accessing table A914. You need to review all your config.

Answer:
Hi, winkintune,
Are you sure your pricing table is called A914? From what I've seen you can create pricing tables only from three digits and no numbers.

Sabir.
Answer:
When you create the condition table in IMG you enter only the digits, but the system automatically adds an A in the beginning of the name for all pricing tables.
/Kumachan
Answer:
Thanks for the resposnes.
I figured out the problem. The condition table is tied to the access sequences, and then these access sequences are tied to the Pricing conditions.
My custom table was not tied to any of the access sequence, and hence the VK11 transaction was not updating the table.
Now, my concern is that when I did map the condition table to the access sequence, I am getting an error message - Select a Doc field for
When I create the condition table, it lets me select the fields from the field catalog, but at the time of the access seq definition, I get this error. Why?
Question: Hi Gurus,
Happy New Year!!!
Can anyone advice me why when i do a MIRO for a third party sales order, the system will update the billing date in my sales order with the date that i use to post the MIRO if the billing date in the SO and the MIRO posting date is different. Is this standard behaviour? How can i control it?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Sud.
Answer:
For your information, I've implemented a third party process in my company and I haven't heared anything so far concerning this kind of issue. May be your problem is coming from the way you are entering infromation in MIRO....

Answer:
Hi Sud,
Thsi might happen if the billing relevance indicator is set to "F". The billed qty is also based on the GR qty and not based on the sales order qty.

Question: We are using a user defined LIS structure.
We have added a new -
Statistics update sequence ' Document header ' over view - transaction code OVRO to include a new sales area. So far documents pertaining to this sales area were not getting picked up because of the settings.
We would like to update the structure with old sales orders now into this Structure. These documents are already available in the system. Now after modifying the update sequence we want to pick up the old sales orders into this LIS structure.
I have tried transaction OLI7 but the same do not get uploaded. But when I create a new sales order its get updated in the structure.
Have I missed out on something.
Thanks
Answer:
Please do not use URGENT in your topic title.
If it's really urgent, open an OSS message at SAP with priority VERY HIGH. They will answer you within 30 minutes... or they will tell you like me that your problem is not urgent!
is your production server down?
will someone die if you don't fix this problem?
Next time, please read Basic rules...

Question: Just curious if there is anyone out there that uses the credit control area update group 000018 and SAP payment card functionality. We switched our update group from 000012 to 000018 about a year ago and have encountered several issues tied to payment cards specifically. I have not found anything specifically from SAP that states that you should be using 000012 if you are using payment cards but they have not addressed our issues and state that everything is WAD (working as designed). Thanks for listening.
Answer:
I have not found anything specifically from SAP that states that you should be using 000012 if you are using payment cards but they have not addressed our issues and state that everything is WAD (working as designed). Thanks for listening.
John,
I tracked this down once and found that unless the Update Group is set to 000012 then SAP will never propose an authorization amount (other than the $1 preauth if you have that configured in your checking group) during order creation.
The same is true for order change UNLESS there are subsequent documents (deliveries or invoices) that are then referenced to update the credit amounts that drive the logic that determines the authorization amounts.
The only real documentation I've ever found is when you hit F1 on the Update field in the Credit Control configuration where the following is given:
Credit update for open order/delivery/billing document value
The credit update controls when the values of open sales orders, deliveries, and billing documents are updated.
Note
The open order value is only updated for schedule lines that are relevant for delivery.
Use
You can specify the following update groups for updating credit-related statistics:
Update group 000012
Sales order
-Increases open order value from delivery-relevant schedule lines
Delivery
- Reduces open order value from delivery-relevant schedule lines
- Increases open delivery value
Billing document
- Reduces open delivery value
- Increases open billing document value
Financial accounting document
- Reduces open billing document value
- Increases open items
Update group 000015
Delivery
- Increases open delivery value
- Increases open billing document value
Financial accounting document
- Reduces open billing document value
- Increases open items
Update group 000018
Sales order
- Increases open delivery value
Billing document
- Reduces open delivery value
- Increases open billing document value
Financial accounting document
- Reduces open billing document value
- Increases open items
Note
If a document cannot be processed with the update group you specify, the system determines the next possible update it can carry out. For example, you select Update group 000012 which, at delivery, reduces the open order value and increases the open delivery value. Assume that one item in the order is not relevant for delivery. In this case, the system automatically determines Update group 000018 for this item. Update group 000018 increases the open delivery value for the order item. The system uses the confirmed quantity of delivery-relevant schedule lines to update the order value.
Because SAP is using the OPEN VALUES logic to calculate the amount to request for authorization the choice of Update Group directly impacts that calculation.
If you'd like to debug it place breakpoints on all the forms in INCLUDE RMCCSS132 and you'll be able to watch SAP build the lines that eventually end up in table OPEN_VALUES which is calculated during the call to FORM OFFENE_WERTE_ERMITTELN in INCLUDE MV45AF0Z_ZAHLUNGSKARTEN_AUTHOR.
The OPEN_VALUES table is eventually used in function module SD_CCARD_PERFORM_AUTHORIZATION to help build the authorization request line.

Question: Hi Sapfans
In OB45 , we use Update Group 15- because we didn't want to update
sales order value to open order value in Sales Value [FD32].
We found in FD32-sales value --is different compare with RVKRED88.
In FD32-sales value is bigger then sales Value RVKRED88.
How come?..is there any reason that make the value wrongly updated?.
We can run RVKRED77 to fix the value, but we also need to find the
reason..
We have checked OMO1 -- the table S067 - update group 15 --status is New[not active]..is this a reason?.
Do we need to active it?..how?.

Answer:
Is it so that the unit of measure in which the product is kept in stock is different from the unit of measure in the delivery? In that case the conversion factor in the master data of the article is not filled.

i think you have to enter the factor in the sales view 1 of the material master MM01/02 for the conversion of base to sales UOM...
Question: The delivered qty is basically updated on order that the delivery made
from. It supposes to update on ref inquiry that the order created from
as well but we found that it doesn't although the copy control settings
between enquire document type and order document type is in place.
Answer:
I got feedback from OSS that is the standard design of the system. The delivery quantity is reflected to sales order, but not to Inquiry or Quotation.
Well, my doubt is why the 'delivered qty' field appears on inquiry schedule screen and SIS standard event 'VG' also contains the field available to conduct the value. There must be a reason to keep it on the screen both for inquiry and quotation.
I believe that an agreeable solution will be found upon this issue.
Question: Hi,
when i make a partial confirmation of Transfer Order i would like that the partial confirmation will update the delivery Quantity, it is standard?
Thank's
Answer:
Hello,
Yes indeed,
This is a standard setting. You can maintain it at the delivery item category level.
Hope this helps.

Oops!
I missed one thing,
You need to maintain in customizing when you want the delivery to be updated. The path for customizing is Interfaces -> Shipping -> Define Shipping Control -> Shipping Control per Warehouse Number
You can refer to SAP note 664316 for further information on this.
Question: SD masters,
I've noticed that after change in customer master data (like street, name, etc.) this data is also changes in existing sales order for this customer, even if those sales orders are completed.
Any idea why ? SAP should have created new address record and keep also the previous one... surprising ...
Any suggestions how to avoid this issue ?
Thanks,
Shai E.
Answer:
Please ignore, issue resolved
Answer:
Thanks you to Shai for the following explanation!
SAP maintains addresses in table ADRC by address number (ADRNR).
Each customer master (KNA1-KUNNR) has single unique ADRNR created automatically by the system (number range 1XX…XXX).
During creation of sales order the business partners, which includes the customer' are maintained in VBPA. SAP stores there the customer actual address number, or in other words, a pointer.
If you change the customer address and VD02, then it'll reflect all sales order which refer to that ADRNR, even completed sales order.
If you change the customer address within the sales order (VA02), the system creates temporary ADRNR per sales order (number range 9XX…XXX) and do not influence the customer ADRNR.
I expected SAP to maintain address number with validity dates but such simply doesn't exist.
Therefore:
1. Update customer master address (VD02) only in cases where the customer address has actually changed.
2. Otherwise, update the address in the sales order business partner.
3. Consider using ship-to parties as required.
Developing & integrating address number with validity dates is simply not worthwhile. If you persist, consider SAP OSS – there's a relative note.
