I’m facing an issue while trying to replicate the above steps.

While doing below customization i’m getting an error. Could you please help me out.

Cross-Application Components >Master Data Synchronization >Synchronization Control


>Synchronization Control > Activate PPO Requests for Platform Objects in the Dialog

Error Message.
***********************************************
Object type ‘CUSTOMER’ is not a platform object,and thus cannot be entered
here
Message no. MDS_CTRL_CONTROLLER009

Hello Jain,

For the above error, please check in the config path


Step 3 above
Cross-Application Components >Master Data Synchronization >Synchronization Control >
SynchronizationControl >Synchronization Objects whether the customer has been checked as platform.

If this setting is not there then you need to maintain this.

Let me know if this solved your error.

Regards,
Jyoti

Hi guys – does any of you have experience in setting up the customer to BP sync when the
number range for customers is created as Internal and the same number range for BPs is
already in use and created as External?
Hope to hear from you
Thanks

Hello Jyoti,
I have a bit different scenario. I have business partners are created in MDG system. And in
S/4 system I want to extend their local information. Means Customer – KNA1 is created and
distributed to S/4 and using that business partner now I want to Customer Sales View -
KNVV & company code view-KNB1. Is is possible to do this by IDoc DEBMAS? What other
option do I have?

Thanks @Former Member
Nice blog.
One question : Which version of S/4HANA used in this BLOG ? Any changes wrt S/4HANA
1709 settings ?
One Suggestion :
You may want to add following pre-steps to the BLOG :
o STEP 0 : Need of and How to CREATE Customer A/C GROUP (Group which needs to be
assigned the number-range)
o The SPRO path which I found for Create Customer A/C Group is below : SPRO > Financial
Supply Chain Management > Cash and Liquidity Management > Cash Management >
Settings for FF7AN and FF7BN > Customer Control > Maintain Customer Account Group
What do you say ?
