HI Dawood,

Without configuration of Partner Determination we can use PS without any issues. it's necessary for SD module i assume.

Example:-

PS = Position in your system could be abbreviated. in PS module with type of partner no. S=position (which recommend by standard sap)

SH = Ship-to party in your system could be abbreviated. in SD module with type of partner no. KU=Customer (which recommend by standard sap).

Rest wait for expert comment.

Hi Mohammed,

Following path is used in Project system for configuration of Partner determination.

1.     SPRO -> Project System -> Structures -> Operative. Structures -> Work Breakdown Structure

        (WBS) -> Define Partner determination Procedures and Roles

2.     Select - Define Partner Role

        Here You can create required Partner roles if the same is not in Standard Part. roles

3.    Select - Define Partner Determination Procedures and Partner Roles

       New entries. Enter the Partner Schema Code & description

4.    Select the Partner schema & click on Partner functions & procedure
       Go to New Entries & Select the partner function from list under Function tab in side

       screen as per your requirement and Save.

5.   Go to t code OPSA i.e. Maintain project profile
      Assign the Partner schema to project profile in Control tab at Partner det proc.
      Once you assign this profile to project definition in WBS you will get a Tab named

      as Partner
