Partner Determination

In the following menu options, you define the rules according to which

automatic partner determination is to be carried out.

When creating a customer master record, the SAP System proposes the

allowed partner functions to be maintained. According to the rules

defined here, the partners are adopted from the customer master records

of the sold-to parties into the sales and distribution documents.

You have to edit the following points for the function "Partner

determination":

o Partner function

You define with the help of the partner function which functions

exist for the partners (customers, vendors, employees, and so on) in

your system.

o Partners allowed for each account group

You allocate the permitted partner functions to every account group

customer.

o Function conversion

You can define the key of the partner functions according to the

language.

o Partner object

Partners are possible in the customer master record and the

so-called partner objects in the sales and distribution documents.

Select a partner object and define the rules for partner

determination for this object.

o Partner determination procedures

You define partner determination procedures which contain all the

allowed partner functions for every partner object.

o Procedure allocation

You allocate each partner determination procedure to an actual

partner object using a key, for example, to an account group

customer or a sales document type.

Partners are contained both in the customer master records and in the

sales and distribution documents. You define partner determination for

each of these objects individually.

The following partner objects exist:

o customer master record

o sales document

- header

- item

o delivery

- header

o billing document

- header

- item

o sales activity

After defining the partner functions, select one partner object after

the other and define the partner determination procedures for the

selected object.

Only when you have checked and, if necessary, changed the partner

determination for all the partner objects is the function "Partner

determination" completed.

Thanks

Hi Prashant

In the partner procedure you can determine whether partner functions can or should occur in a partner object (customer master, sales document, item category etc.).

For each object, in whixh partner functiions can be created, you can define partner procedures. That means

for the customer master

for sales documents

for sales documents and billing documents: for items

By assigning a procedure you determine for which account groups (for the customer master), which sales document types (for sales documents) and for which item categories this procedure is valid.

Features

In the partner determination procedure you can determine for each partner function:

whether the partner function is an obligatory partner function

whether the partner function may be changed in the document

For sales documents and sales activities you can also enter in the partner procedure that the corresponding partner function should be occupied by another other than the sold-to party master record (source control).

Activities

In Customizing there are pre-defined partner procedures available, which contain frequently used partner functions with the necessary characteristics. These partner procedures can be modified if necessary or you can create new partner procedures.

You can find further information in the implementation guide (IMG) for sales and distribution under Basic functions ® Partner Determination ® Define and assign partner determination procedures.

Example

You can create a partner determination procedure for billling documents in which the sold-to party, bill-to party and the payer are obligatory but the ship-to party is not. (For billing it is more important to know who orders and pays for the goods rather than who receives them)
