Partner Determination

Posted: Sep 22, 2008 2:02 PM Edit E-mail this message Reply

Hi all,

I am configuring partner determination procedure.I am not copying anything.I create everything new.even the partner functions A1, A2.... instead of SP, BP.

After creating the Sold to party master record If I put the sold to party in sales order it gives an error that "No customer master exist for the sold to party xxx"

If I dont touch the partner determination config and just create the customer by using the Acc group 0001 this error is not coming

Can anyone let me know Where exactly I am doing the mistake

Thanks in advance

Regards

Dear Ranjan

Considering u have done all the settings in Partner Determination for Customer Master, check once again whether the partner functions created are assigned to standard Partner Types i.e. KU for Customer.

Again, check the settings in the Partner Determination for Sales Document Header, whether your partner functions are assigned to Part Det Proced which again to be assigned to the Sales Document Type.

Hope this helps u.

Hi,

Assign your partners to Account Group

And create the Cust. master data using the same account group

Hi,

I believe you have missed out couple of things out here as below:

1. You have missed to assing your newly created partner functions A1, A2.. to the account group 0001 which is manadatory...

2. You have created the master record wihtout putting the approriate account group initially...

Check above pointers and let me know...

Dear Mano.

Go to partner determination in the VOPA.

There you have to Assign the Partner Function (SP/BP/SH) to the account group.

Then try creating the sales order.

Please revert in case your problem is not resolved.

Please check the following points:

1. Partner procedures : Such as AG

In Procedure details

There you have to assign the A1/A2/A3/A4 in the AG

Just overwrite the BP with A1/A2 assign it with AG .

The System will prompt message on saving manully transport the table entries.

2. GO to procedure assignment : Assigh the Partner procedure AG to Account group.

3. Next again go to VOPA.

Partner Function:

go to enviorment : account group assignment.

There assign the A1/A2/A3/A4 to the Customer account group.

Hope your problem will be solved.

Hi,

Partner procedure AG is standard one.I have created my own procedure.Under that i have assigned A1,A2, A3, A4.

The above partner functions have been assigned to acc group also.

By any chance should I use standards in any of the steps.

Hi

1. If you have created new Partner Functions, then ensure you have assigned the "Partner Type" appropriately.

Here you should assign Partner Type "KU".

2. Second, assign the Partner Functions (A1/A2/A3/A4) to your Account Group.

3. Assign the Partner Functions (A1/A2/A3/A4) to your Procedure.

4. Assign the Procedure to your Account Group.

5. Create the Customer master using the Account Group.

Now there should not be any problem.
