Hi

Follow the path

IMG > SD > Basic function > Partner determination > Partner determination procedure for Customer master > Define Partner functions

First, define "Partner functions". You may create new or can take the existing ones (SP,SH,BP,PY are manadatory, choose other partner functions if you require.). Donnot forget to specify the Partner type for the respective Partner functions if you are creating new.

Second, define a "Partner determination Procedure" by choosing new entries.

Third, assign the "Partner functions" in the "Partner determination procedure".In the procedure , you can mark Partner functions SP,SH,BP and PY are mandatory. Also you can mark which of these you want to make "not changeable".

Fourth,Create a new "Account group" or you can take existing one (0001-sold-to-party).

Fifth,assign the "Partner functions" to the "Account group".

Sixth, assign the "Procedure" to the "Account group".

Preferably, assign an internal number range to the Account group.

Now, go to XD01 and create your customer by specifying your Sale area, Company code and Account group.

Check all the above assignment correctly and proceed.

Hi Mukesh,

If you created new Account group you need to assign all Partner functions (SP,SH,BP,PY) to account group.

of if u created new partner function you need to assign the partner function to Account group which you use to created Customer (in XD01).

Thanks.
