Hi,

When you will define Zsales order type ,Zdelivery typeand Zbillibg type with Zitem category ,then you have to define partner function for customer master as well as sales docment header and itemand delivery header and billing like that.

When you create a sales document without referring to a preceding document, the system copies the following data from the master records:

u2022 Data about the sold-to party and other partners (for example, ship-to party or payer) from the customer master records

u2022 Item data from the material master record

u2022 Data from any relevant customer-material information records

The following graphic shows some of the data that is either transferred to the sales document or determined in the sales document.

Data From the Customer Master Record

Among other things, the name of the sold-to party as well as agreements for complete deliveries and order combinations are copied from the customer master record into the document. You can change this data for each transaction.

The document contains data that can be entered in the header and in the items. The header data here normally applies to the items as well. For example, payment terms, Incoterms, partner functions, and the delivering plant are copied from the customer master records of the business partner into the document and the items. You can change the data in each item.

Deviating Item and Header Data

A sales document may include items where some of the business data differs from the business data in the header. You can review items where the data varies with the header data by selecting Edit Display criteria Own business data from the Overview screen. You reach an overview screen that contains only the items for which the data is defined. If you enter general business data for an item which deviates from the data in the document, subsequent changes to the data in the document header have no effect on this item.

Data From Different Business Partners

Sometimes the customer master record specifies different partners for the various partner functions. For example, you may define several ship-to parties for a single sold-to party. In addition, you can define different partners for receiving and paying invoices. Each partner has its own customer master record and, during sales order processing, the system automatically copies data from the customer master record of the relevant partner into the sales order. For example, for each different ship-to party, the system copies the appropriate delivery and shipping data from the customer master record into the document.

The following graphic shows an example in which the sold-to party, ship-to party, and payers are all different. The payment terms are copied from the customer master record of the payer, while the destination address is copied from the customer master record of the ship-to party.
