hi experts!

What should i do when i want to know the function or business scenario of certain field but there is only the defination of this field in SAP HELP???

eg.

What shou i do when i want to know the fuction or effact of the field "vendor" in customer master,general data,control tabpage.

In other words, i want to know what will happened to the customer master if i entry a vendor number in the field "vendor".

The HELP is just tell me about the field "vendor"'s defination.

I've tried using SE11 to verify "where-used list" of the field "vendor", however, there is only the list but any fruther information about how it works and the business scenario it is used.

please help me, I have been puzzled for a long time.

thank you so much!

Hi,

This is in fact related to functional knowledge which can be mapped via SAP, which means if you are able to visualize the scenarios in your domain then only you can understand the logic of every field in SAP... not only in the customer master. But as of now I can give you some idea about the Vendor filed in the customer master. This means this customer can act like as a vendor for your company.
