"Contact Person" partner function in Customer Master

[Former Member]

Hi,

The "Contact Person CP" Partner Function is NOT assigned to Account Group, however, it is assigned to Partner Determination Procedure (PDP) and which in turn has been assigned to Account Group (the "Mandatory" & "Non Modifiable" check boxes are NOT set.

Now, when we create Customer master with that particular "Account Group", the normal four Partner Functions show up automatically (SoldTo, ShipTO, Payer, BillTo) and when we add "Contact Person", manually, the system DOES NOT error out. Any explanation for this ? Normally if the the partner function is not assigned to account group(step 5 of partner determination) (even if it is assigned to PDP), the system would error out while adding that PF, how come it did not while adding the contact person?

Any input ....?

Thx

Hi

In your partner determination procedure for the CP partner function as you have not checked Mandatory & Non Modifiable that is the reason system in not throwing any error while creation of CMR. So Just check Not Modifiable for the CP partner function , In your partner determination procedure then the partner function will come .But you need to assign the Contact person number , because while saving CMR system will throw error again.

Hello,

The partner fucntion contact person coems from the General Tab of the customer master. In that you can enter any individual as contact person from customer side

there is no seperate partner fucntion determined for the same.

therfero when you enter the same in sales order partner fucntion, it does not give you any error although it is not defined in procedure

hope this helps

Thanks

Hi

As once the Partner function CP gets assigned then automatically that CP data gets copied in the General data->contact person tab also.So system will check and that is the reason system wont throw any error.
