Classic Scenario PO has multiple OA Partner Functions for Vendor

Hi,
I have a 'design' issue. My R/3 Vendor has many OA Partner Functions for the different Branches they have and the PO needs to be Faxed to the OA Partner Function number, but the PO needs to be created against the VN Partner Function.
So, how do i do this in SRM? I was going to have a seperate Catalog link for each OA Partner function, but this is not creating the R/3 PO with VN Partner Function of the 'core' Vendor number.
Does anyone have any advice for this?
regards Adam
Using SRM 5.0 (Server 5.5) SP 8 and R/3 4.6C in Classic Scenario - my catalogs are external vendor.

Order Partner Functions for VENDORs

Hi All,
We are using CRM 5.0 and ECC 6.0. We successfully replicated all the VENDORs from ECC to CRM BPs with BBP000-VENDOR role as this features is supported from CRM 5.0.
We are now trying to get the VENDOR Partner functions replicate from ECC sales order to the Partner Functions for the CRM ORDERS. Looks like SAP doesn't support this feature yet. I am getting the Partner Functions (say Z1 - Freight Carrier ) but the partner data is BLANK. So i am working on a workaround.
My Issue I am using ORDER_SAVE BADI to enter a BP from CRM to this Partner Function that is coming empty to CRM. For some reason my code is not working. Below is my code

Hi ROshan,
Open customer master in XD02 sales view and save it then check in XD03 it should display the partner functions.
As you said the account group has been changed I think the records needs to be saved again.

Partner Function for Vendor through IDOC

Hi All,
I have a requirement in which I need to create the vendor master through IDOC. I am using CREMAS basic type for that. In its functionality, I need to assign different partner functons to it. I identified the segment as E1WYT3M in it at hierarchy level 3. I passed the partner function like OA or PI in the PARVW field of it and provided the vendor number which I want to assign as partner function in the LIFN2 field.
Vendor is getting created but Partnering details are not getting updated when I am seeing in the XK03 Txn. Am I missing something.
Please help me on this.
Thanks
Natasha

Hi All,
Moving further, I got another issue in changing the partner details of a vendor. Changing includes assigning another partner function to an existing vendor or deleting any already assigned partner function. I am doing this through IDOC. I am getting an error message 'Deletion of mandatory partner function 'VN' is not possible.'
I tried changing the msgfn also.
How should I proceed here.
Thanks

Partner func for vendor/cust. in inventory mangment

hi,
for partner function for vendor /customer in inventory management ,i found one note: SAP Note 193250
the note details
Summary
Symptom
In inventory management, the partner functions of vendors or customers are
not taken into account for goods movements.
Additional key words
MB01, MB1A, MB1C, MB1B, output determination
Cause and prerequisites
This function is not supported. The inventory management does not work in
the standard system with vendor or customer partner functions.
Solution
You can look up the partner roles of the vendor master record or customer
master record in the user exit routine USER_EXIT_KOMPBME_PARTNER (program
RVCOMFZ2) and fill table COM_PART. You can find the vendor or customer
number in structure COM_MSEG.
I found user exit USER_EXIT_KOMPBME_PARTNER in Program RVCOMFZ2,
FORM USEREXIT_KOMPBME_PARTNER.
COM_PART-PARVW =
COM_PART-PARNO =
APPEND COM_PART.
ENDFORM.
what changes i have to in this program ,please give the solution
Thanks and regards
Vijay.

Hi,
You wont be able to access COM_MSEG using SE11.
It actually fetches values from MSEG if you check the function module - KOMPBME_FILL, you can see COM_MSEG is like MSEG hence it will act like a internal table.
Hence you will get the values in COM_MSEG dynamically from MSEG.
Hope it helps.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
You can make use of this Tgt Structure BWYT3,
BWYT3 - Vendor Master Record: Partner Functions (Batch Input)
In this you need to pass the combination values of
PARVW Partner function
PARNR Number of contact person (batch input only),
In field mapping you need use Conversion exit for both.

Partner Function in Vendor master

Hi,
I want to know what is partner functions in Vendor master , what configuration settings required for it and is it necessary to maintain what can be the problem or why it use .
regards,
zafar

Hi Zafar,
Basically Vendor partner functions allowed you to define the rights and responsibilities of business partner in a business transaction. The R/3 standard partner functions are :
AZ     Alternative payee
OA     Ordering address
VN     Vendor
CR     Carrier
PI     Invoice presented by
CA     Contract address
GS     Goods supplier
DP     Delivering site
Accordingly the vendor is first the ordering address, then the supplier of good and after that Invoicing party and finally the Payee. You can determine which of the partner roles are optional and which are mandatory in the customization. If no roles have been maintained, the data of the vendor role applies
Now the Vendor partner function will work after few Setting in Customization :
1) Maintain seprate vendor master record for each partner
2) Activate partner function by ASsign Partner Schema to Account Groups
SPRO ; Material Management > Purchasing > partner Determination > partner Settings in Vendor Master REcord > here choose and account Group to active partner Function and from Field PS EKORG Select L1
3)Define Permissible Partner Roles Per Account Group
In this step, you can specify for each account group of the vendor which roles the vendor may assume.
I.e. you can specify that certain vendors may only serve as an ordering address, not as an invoicing party.
Maintain Partner roles, which is to be used in Account Group
GS - DIMP
PI-DIMP
OA-DIMP
4) Maintain partner function - Now in the Vendor master record you can maintain Vendor partner function .
or can assign partner at the Time of PO Creation ME21n, When GR will be done you can See partner Details.

Vraj

Error "You cannot enter a partner function for output NEU"

Hi Experts,
I'm having these error "You cannot enter a partner function for output NEU" (message VN041) when I tried to assign a partner function (e.g OA) in the conditions records for application "EV" (Purchase outline agreement). The system do not allow me to do this for any doc type (LP, LPA, MK, OA, etc). I'm using t-code NACE or MN08.
I want to assign partner for key combination "Document Type". The conditions is already there but with no value, so I want to assign partner function "OA" or "VR".
I already check all the configuration and looks fine. For example, define possible partner functions for output type "NEU" for application "EV" (Purc outline agree).
Hope you can help me to find the problem.
Thanks,
Mairo.

I have the error in NACE or using tcode MN08.
As soon I executed those transaction the system shows the condition records created for varios Doc Type (e.g LP, LPA, MK, etc) but with no partner function assigned. For example:
Doc. Type / Name                     /             Funct /   Partner     /            Medium / Date/time /   Language
LP        /       Scheduling Agreement     / blank / blank /                                          2      /          3   /              EN
LPA      /      Scheduling Agreement                              / blank    / blank   /                1        /       3         /        EN
For example, I try to assign function "OA" for Doc. Type "LP", choose value from quickpick. Then when I press enter, the system give me the error "You cannot enter a partner function for output NEU", message no. VN041. Do not allow me to continue, so I have to leave this field blank, with no change.
Thanks,

Partner functions for a specific customer not seen in XD03 but appears in XD02

Hello SAP Gurus,
I have a situation where a partner functions for a specific customer not seen in XD03 but appears in XD02, In XD03 only one partner function (Ship to) appears but in XD02 (Sold to, Ship to, Bill to and payer appears), from the customer master I can see that account group for this customer has been changes to Sold to (Z001) from Ship to (Z002).
I checked in settings for OB20 transaction for display customer centrally, it is in Display mode as required and not suprresed would like your inputs as to why this is happening and what can be done to fix this.
Thanks and Regards
Mohammed Roshan

Hi ROshan,
Open customer master in XD02 sales view and save it then check in XD03 it should display the partner functions.
As you said the account group has been changed I think the records needs to be saved again.
