Sold-to Block as Ship-To in VA01

[Private_Member_149907]

Hi All,

We have situation where we have a sold-to created with multiple ship-to's. Our issue is, the users can enter the sold-to as a ship-to in the sales order which we do not want them to do. In our system the sold-to automatically gets created as a SP, BP, PY, and SH when the customer master is created. We deleted the SH from the customer master, but it continues to let the sold-to be used as a shipto.

Have any of you ran into this issue before, and do you have a solution.

Thanks in advance,

Mark

Your aim is to not allow Sold to to be enter to ship to right?

At first place, you must remove automatic determination of having SH upon creating SP.

While having SP-BP-PY-SH creating Ship to party.

Configured it in:

Check Set Up Partner Determination for Customer Master

Define new Partner Function

SPRO > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Partner Determination > Set Up Partner Determination

or

Sales and Distribution > Master Data > Business Partners > Customers > Customer Hierarchy > Set Partner Determination For Hierarchy Categories

Otherwise use user exit in VA01 via ABAP.

Check your account group for sold to party. Delete that automatic partner determination in the configuration of having SH on it.

You can try this. Go to t.code VOPA->Sales document header->partner procedure button->select procedure and click on procedure details button. Against the sold-to party row, maintain SP and value C under Source column and save. Create a new sales order and test.

We tried configuring VOPA, but are getting the following error.

Origin C is not permitted for partner function SH. We got the same error for partner function SP.

We see where this is going and like the idea. We believe if you do not have the SH partner function on customer master it would not allow it on the sales order. Any suggestions to get by this error?

Thanks,

Mark
