Hi

Yes, you can have multiple PAYER for one Sold-to-party (only in the Customer master).

This Partner relationship is maintained in two places. They are,

> Customer master ( sales area data > partner function tab )

> Sales documents (at Header level and Item level)

In Customer master data, you can have multiple partners ( e.g, multiple Payers) for one Partner function( e.g, SH,BP,PY).

But in Sales document, you can have only one Partner for one Partner function.

So, you can have only in Customer master data multiple pertners. So, first create the different Payers through XD01 ,choosing Account group "Payer".

Then assign all those PAYERS in the master data of the Sold-to-party by going in the change mode XD02 and save it.

When you create the Billing document, system will give a pop-up of those list of Payers and you have to choose one . You can have only one Payer in one Billing document.

Dear Suresh

Yes you can certainly have multiple Payers for one Sold to Party.

To achieve this, you have to create those multiple Payers in XD01 and make a note of the customer codes which system would be displaying at the bottom screen upon saving the customer master. Now go to XD02, input sold to party customer code and execute. There select Partner Functions tab under Sales Area Data and assign the above customer codes with Partner Function PY.

Now while creating sale order for this sold to party, since you have maintained multiple Payers, system would propose all Payers and you can choose any one. But please note that one invoice can have only one Payer.

thanks

Hi Suresh,

Yes,you can have multiple payers for one sold-to-party.

For this you have to create payer by using the Account group "Payer" by using XD01 T.code.

After this while creating the customer by using XD01 T.Code using "sold-to-party" account group.

Goto Sales area data-->Partners.Add the Previously created payer here.By default the same customer will be one payer and it will be the second one.

Dear Suresh,

Yes it is possible to have multiple payers for one sold to party.

But You need to do this before process the sales cycle.(sales order>Delivery>billing)

-->You create payers master data seperatly with Payer account group through XD01 transaction.

-->Now assign these payers in the sold to party master data >sales area data>Partner functions tab.

I hope this will help you,

Regards,
