Why do we have different partners KU?

[Former Member]

HI Guys

It might sound like a dumb question but I am trying to understand why do we have different partner profiles for KU type.

I understand they are different customers and hence different but...

My scenario is we are posting ORDERS (IDOCS) for 6 different customers. Currently we have 6 KU profiles. However suggested approach is since all of them are only doing ORDERS and same IDOC (version etc) to make them all as only 1 KU.

I hope that clarifies why I am asking the above question. I am trying to establish the pro's and con's of each approach.

Dear Mimranacc,

You maintain partner profile for each partner and maintain inbound and outbound parameters. Receiver partner number will be different for each partner in the IDoc data. Also, you would maintain outbound parameters. Here you will specify where to send data.
