Dear Friend,

The Unique Indicator for a particular Partner Function is set at many levels, e.g.

1. Customer Master level.

2. Sales Document Header Level

3. Sales Document Item Level, etc...

Please check & remove this Unique indicator at the level at which you are getting the error.

Hope this helps...

Thanks,

Jignesh Mehta

all checks for uniques are unchecked at each of those levels.

Even when there is no check on unique I am facing the problem of using the PF one time only.

Solution is that it is not possible in standard SAP.

Hi

It is standard SAP behaviour.

I am trying to clarify you little bit.

We can maintain Partner relationship in two places, they are

i. Customer master data > Sales Area data > Partner Function tab, and in

ii. Sales document (Header and Item level).

The one important difference between these two are that,

In the Customer master data, you can have multiple Partners for one Partner Functions.

That means, you can have C1, C2, C3 for one Partner function SH.

So, in the Customer master, you use/add the same Partner Function (e,g. SH) multiple times.

But, it is not possible in sales document, in SAP.

In Sales document (Header or Item level), you can have only one Partner for one particular Partner Function.

You can not add same Partner Function (e,g. SH) more than once.

As beacuse you are trying to add the Partner Function "ZM " more than once at Item level, hence the error.
