Hi Venu,

I maintained partners SP,BP,SH,PY
In source field for BP i maintained SP

Your configuration makes the BP to be defaulted from the SP master record (BP partner in the SP master record).

When you create a sales order for this SP....Which BP is defaulted when you do not have the above config and which BP is defaulted after doing the above config change? Did you observe any difference?

System, by default determines the partner functions from SP....and why do you want to again tell the system to copy BP from the SP master record?

Ravi,

Good, careful reading

May be it is a typing mistake!

Please read the business requirement:

that is if i selected ship to party in sales order automatically bill to party should papulate

Venu,

As per your requirement, BP should be field "Source" as SH. (not SP)

Your sequence should be 1 (depends upon sequence number in partner function SH), in the partner procedure assigned to the Sales document header.

Hi Venu,

As you said, System is accepting what ever you mentioned partner functions in the customer master, those partners will reflect on sales order. You can not create order without SP So, maintain SP in XD02 than you can create order.

Venu,

 in xd02 i changed SP TO BP system is accepting 
but when i create sales order with SP system is not allowing BP Automatically 

Please explain the above clearer with an example.

Furthermore, if you want BP to populate according to SH, then

In CMR of SH put BP e.g.

SP = 5000

SH = 1000

BP = 1111

I.e. business requirement is in a sales order, when SH = 1000, then BP = 1111 should automatically populate.

In SP customer master record, in XD02, in button Sales Area Data, in Tab Partners:

SP 5000

SH 5000

BP 5000

PY 5000

In SH 1000 customer master record, in XD02, in button Sales Area Data, in Tab Partners:

have:

SH 1000

BP 1111

Now in VA01, give SP = 5000, manually give SH = 1000;

then the BP 1111 shall populate in the sales order.
