Uploading Customer Master Extended Address Using BAPI Method

This document discusses uploading customer master extended address data to SAP using BAPI methods via LSMW. It describes creating an LSMW object to migrate address data using the business object BUS4001 and method SAVEREPLICA. The key steps include creating an LSMW project and object, defining source and target structures that match the file format, mapping source fields to target fields, and executing to generate IDocs for posting addresses to SAP.

Uploading Customer Master Extended Address using BAPI method


By Ansumesh Kumar Samal, IBM

Readers of this post can refer to my earlier post Uploading Customer Master Data using Direct Input Method for detailed level of explanation of each LSMW steps. Customer Master Data is the key object in all Order-To-Cash related operations for an organization. It consists of several category/types of data among which Customer Address data is one. Almost all type of customer master data can be migrated to SAP using Standard Batch/Direct Input Method (Using program: RFBIDE00). Even Customer Address can also be migrated using program standard program RFBIDE00.However there are few specific reasons which lead us to use different approach for uploading Customer Master Extended Address Data, Reason There are many additional address fields which are not available in the structure of standard program RFBIDE00.In an alternative approach we created one more LSMW object using BAPI method available under LSMW and used Business Object BUS4001 & Method SAVEREPLICA for address migration. All detailed steps with screen-shots are given below. Source System: Target System: Prerequisite Data cleansing is performed Customers are already created in the system through customer master load LSMW for all account groups All configuration data should be available in the system. Users executing conversion should have access to XD01/VD01/FD32 transaction File from Presentation Server SAP ECC.

Doing Customer address load using BAPI method will generate IDOC, and by generated IDOC data will be posted/migrated to SAP. Below shown configuration is required for doing this LSMW object. One port needs to be created. Destination system details (Partner and Partner Type) needs to be provided as shown below

LSMW Details Step by Step. LSMW : Initial Screen Create One project ZDEMO_O2C and a sub-project OTC under that in t-code LSMW Create a LSMW object 2_CUSTOM_ADDRESS under sub-project OTC

Click on Execute button which will display initial screen with all the available steps for all techniques. However after first step based on the techniques used for the LSMW, few steps will be removed. STEP 1: Maintain Object Attributes

Based on the LSMW techniques the below are the final steps which we need to execute for ADDRESS load.

STEP 2: Maintain Source Structures Create source structure name as CUSTOMER_ ADDRESS for Structure of Legacy data customer address respectively.

STEP 3: Maintain Source Fields Created all source fields under above Source Structure. And one important point here i.e. field sequence under the source structure should be created in the same sequence what it is given by the customer in the flat file. Click here for the file format. Before uploading we saved the XLS file into TXT format and then passed to the LSMW object.
