Hi JO,

In our last project also we have same req requirement.

U only u have assign forwarding agent as partner function in partner determination procedure.

This should activate Ur partner function for forwarding agent in Ur customer's account.

Hi,

Go to t code VOPA click on partner procedure.

Double click on the required procedure and include a Partner function FA or LA accordingly for forwarding agent.

Save and come back. Go to Partner procedure and assign FA or LA again to the procedure and yes in partner function please activate the FA by ticking it.

This should activate ur partner function for forwarding agent in ur customer's account.

regards,

Siddharth.

go easy access, select SD then seledt master data >then select the forwarding agent

Forwarding agent is nothing but service provider ( vendor).

So create in XK01.

maintain the partner function type:CR in Customer/sales item Partner determination.

maintain in Customer master or else enter manually at the time of order creation.

while creating-

company code: XXXX ( Created in FI)

Purchase Org: XXXX ( created in MM)

acct group: 0001 ( if u want to use sap defined)

Define acct group for vendor: OMSG

assign number ranges to acct group: OMSJ

enter relevant fields and save.

maintian the same number as forwarding agent in CMR or SO.

hope it clears.

Hi,

Forwarding agent partner function is avialable in MM not in SD. From XK01 -select the partner function as 'Forwarding Agent'.

In SD we don't have a defualt partner function called

'Forwarding Agent'.

The forwanding agent is a vendor so it is created in MM.

The partner function type for forwarding agent is assigned to a partner type "vendor"
