CVI: Settings for Customer Vendor Integration
You use Customer Vendor Integration (CVI) to synchronize "synchronization objects" in the ERP system. In leasing, you use the synchronization objects: SAP General
Business Partner (BP), Customer Master, and Vendor Master.
You make the settings for Customer Vendor Integration in the ERP system only.
Procedure
1. Check that the following entries have been made for synchronization objects (transaction SM30, view MDSV_CTRL_OBJ):
Synchronization Object Synchronization Mode *) Extractor Class Description Platform Block Size
BP 1 CVI_BP_EXTRACTOR Business Partner X 50
CUSTOMER 1 CMD_EI_API_EXTRACT Customer 50
VENDOR 1 VMD_EI_API_EXTRACT Vendor 50
*) Synchronization mode:
1= For synchronous comparison and mass data loads
2= For synchronous comparison only
3= For mass data loads only
2. Create synchronization options as follows (transaction SM30, view MDSV_CTRL_OPT).
A synchronization option is a combination of source synchronization object and target synchronization object. It shows which source synchronization object is to be
synchronized with which target synchronization object.
Source Object Target Object Strategy Implementation Queue Name
BP CUSTOMER CVI_STRATEGY_BP_CUSTOMER MDS_BUPA_CUST
BP VENDOR CVI_STRATEGY_BP_VENDOR MDS_BUPA_VEND
CUSTOMER BP CVI_STRATEGY_CUSTOMER_BP MDS_CUST_BUPA
VENDOR BP CVI_STRATEGY_VENDOR_BP MDS_VEND_BUPA
3. Activate the synchronization options (transaction SM30, view MDSV_CTRL_OPT_A).

4. Synchronize the SAP General Business Partner (BP) with the customer (CUSTOMER).
Note
The entries in the table PIDE are not relevant here, do not make any changes to this table.
In Number Assignment for Direction BP to Customer (transaction SM30, view V_TBD001), assign the business partner grouping to a customer account group. If you
set the Same Numbers indicator, identical numbers are used in ERP system for the SAP General Business Partner (BP) and the customer (CUSTOMER).

The following table contains example entries. For your settings, use the business partner groupings and account groups that you require.
Example
Grouping Short Name Account Group Name Same Numbers
0001 Internal DEBI Customer (general)
0002 External KUNA Customer (external number assignment) X
0003 CVI Int./Ext. KUNA Customer (external number assignment)
In Set BP Role Category for Direction BP to Customer (transaction SM30, view V_TBD002), check whether the following entries required for the synchronization of
customers have been made:
Role Category Description

FLCU01 Business Partner Customer (FS: BP)
Note
Make sure that the required entry fields and entries are the same for the SAP General Business Partner (BP) and the customer/vendor. If this is not the case, the
system terminates synchronization.
