Partner Function - Sales Employee & Employee as Customer

[Former Member]

Dear Gurus,

My doubt is:

1. Sales Employee- who brings the sales

2. Employee as Customer- Employee in the same company and also purchases some products from the same company.

In the above 2 cases what are the total settings required?

HR module also being implemented here.

Pl elaborate for both the cases separately.

Regards,

hello, friend.

if the employee is created as a customer, you use t-code XD01 or VD01. the default partner function would be SP (sold-to party) or an equivalent partner function as a result of the account group used. the result is that a customer number (SD generated) is assigned.

as employee can also be a sales employee with partner function VE or SE, and you use t-code VPE1 for this. the employee number (HR generated) is then assigned.

both can work for you, but each has its own advantages. for example, you can track sales employee link to SD transactions in SIS if you use the employee number (HR). if you want to track employee purchases, then the customer number (SD) will be relevant.

regards.
