Partner Determination at various levels....

[Former Member]

Hi,

Partner Determination is possible at Customer Master level, Sales Document level , Item level etc....

During the sales order creation, the partner functions are taken from the Customer master... if yes, then what is the necessity of sales document level, item level partner determination....??? Also, if partner determination can be made possible at all levels then which takes the priority???

My second query is:

In customizing it is possible to determine the Ship to party based on the Sold party and also based on the Ship to party, the Forwarding Agent is determined....Where exactly the setting is done...????

Third query:

An analysis function is provided for tracing automatic automatic determination of business partners in sales documents..... Where is it possible ????

Regards

Hi,

your first question:

partner determination assignment vary as per your requirement. in general you assign it to account groups for customer master. for others like sales order/dlivery/billing, you only need to assign these if your requirement varies on delv/billing creation. take the exapmple of value contracts, here in general you assign the PD process KAB) to sales document type(WK1).

second:

this can be done, as you have already maintained the same. like take the example of order creation. if you just put SH data without putting the SP, the system will take the SP from the SH' master record (if you have maintained these for that SH)

Third:

as far as i know there is no analysis function for partner determination in sales document, like we have for material determination, listing/exclusion/freegoods and output.
