For customers whom you only supply once or rarely, you can create a special customer master record, the master record for "one-time accounts". In contrast to other master records, no data specific to a single customer is stored in the one-time master record, since this account is used for more than one customer. The customer-specific entries such as address and bank details are not entered until the document for the transaction is entered into the system.

You invoice a customer who purchased goods from you because his main vendor could not supply them. In this case, you post the invoice to a one-time vendor account instead of creating a separate master record.

Hi,

One time Vendor as the name suggest is used for procurement from occaisional vendors.Here in general data there is no provision for mantaining detail address which is mantained at the time of creation of PO/Invoicing etc.

But you can mantain Accounting Information like withholding tax ,Payment transaction and purchasing data etc.

Hi,

One time vendors can only be used for specific vendor account groups. Their is a flag for each account group in configuation for this. If one does not exist you will have to create a new vendor account group.

To create a One Time Vendor use XK01 and select the OTV account group.

When creating say a PO use your OTV account the transaction will prompt you for name, address etc (unlike a normal vendor).
