Master Data Maintainess.

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

In our system we maintained customer master data centrally (xd01) where we have not any place where we can input different address for same Company. One of our customer has 4 Units against same name. Now customer wants us to bill as per their Unit's address which not possible presently because we maintain only one address for them they one different invoices for their different units.

So, would you pls suggest us how can we maintain multiple addresses for a single company & how we show the same in the output.

Thanks in advance for kind suggestion.

Best Regards.

HI,

You can enter what ever address you want to send output during the sales order. Though some perminant address you have maintained in CMR, while creating the sales order by default same address flows, then goto header - Partners tab- double click on relavant partner function. Then POP UP will be thrown where you can change the address and save the document.

To take output with same address , ask abaper to make changes in concerned samrt form accordingly , address has to be taken from sales order changed address not from Customer master data.

Hi,

You can easily handle you requirement using "Partner Functions" in SAP.

This is what you have to do.

As per my understanding, though he has 4 addresses to send the bill, payment will come form one place? Am I right? If that's the case, You have ONE Payer for the customer. and 4 Bill to Parties.

Let's say Customer name is XYZ. and he has 4 address as A, B C and D. Payment always comes from A.

So what you have to do is, create customer master record (Tx: XD01) using Account Group "Sold To" for customer XYZ.

Then create 4 customer master records (Tx: XD01) using Account Group "Bill to Party" for customer addresses A, B C and D.

Then go to XD02 transaction for customer XYZ and assign those A, B C and D partners to him under Partner Functions tab.

Now when you create a sales order, once you enter your sold to party and press enter key, system will pop up Bill to parties A, B C and D for you to choose. select relevant one. That's for the sales order header level. Same will copied to line items as well. But you can have different Bill to Parties for each line item as well.

When you do your billing, that will always be for the Payer partner, which is XYZ. Then get the print out put and see. It has to be for relevant bill to party. If it's not the case, ask your ABAP guy to pick the bill to party partner for that name area from the billing document.

Thanks and best regards,
