Assign Business Partners to iBase Components

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have created Solution for my Satellite systems in Solution Manager , I followed below path to Create and Assign the Component Systems as iBase .

1) DSWP> I have Selected a Solution and went to EDIT tab>Initial Data Transfer for IBase.

I got message IBASE generated Successfully.

<u>After that I am trying to Assign Business Partners to iBase Components</u>

2) T code : ib52 >Installed Ibase : 01 and I have selected component then went to Goto Tab> Partner , there

I have Function , Partner , Main Partner , Address fields

Under function I have Sold-to-party , Reported by , System Administrator functions.

Now my question is

If I select 1) Reported by function what is the corresponding partner i have to select.I have created 200 keys users.

Like that for Sold-to-Party and System adminstartor functions what partner I have to assign.

Pls help me , i got stuck up here.

Thanks in advance

Dear Rajani,

Normally you need to assign the following business partners to the IBASE components :

Administrator --> Person who is the administrator of the System.

Key User --> Who is responsible for the system like an Module Lead.

Sold-to Party --> Oraganization which is responsible for the System.

So let's say in my organization Amit.inc i have the following systems :

System A --> Administrator A --> Person responsible C

System B --> Administrator B --> Person responsible D

I would have the following assignments of BP's

System A :

Administrator --> BP for A

Key User --> BP for C

Sold-to Party --> BP for Amit.inc

I hope that the example is clear enough.

Hi Amit,

Thanks alot for response. I have a question like

1) I am using SM 4.0 , I have Reported by function , don't have key user function ..both are same?

2) What is the use of this functions?

3) Can I use function Support team also? Is it useful?

Thanks in advance.

Dear Rajani,

Not all partner functions are to be used via IB52. Reported by means the person reporting the issue. You can leave this field as it will be filled by the BP of the satellite user.

Secondly there is no need of filling in the Support Team if you are using the Automatic Team Determination rule.

I hope this helps. Looking at the queries that you have I would suggest you to kindly read the configuration guide and the RKT's for an better understanding of the scenario.
