Alternate Payee AZ partner role in Vendor Master pop up in PO

Hi,
Can anybody help when multiple alternate payees are created in vendor master, when the same vendor is called in a PO, the system should pop up the multiple payees for user to select the required payee. This is coming for other partner roles OA& PI but not for AZ. Does anybody has a solution.
regards
Bala

Thanks for the reply.
AZ is not marked as unique. And we are able to enter multiple payees in permitted payees in vendor master. But when you get to PO it must propose the user for to select any one, right and that is not happening for only AZ. Let me know.

Partner roles in Vendor master record

Hi all
can some one explain me how to enter the partner roles in vendor master record
In sap help i didnt understood this point
"When working with partner roles, you must maintain the following settings:
Separate vendor master records must exist for all the partners of a vendor that are to be entered in that vendors master record."
what does it mean
suppose i am creating vendor master record 1234
Vendor master record:1234
LF 1234       /*vendor
BA1234       /*ordering address
i have to click 1234 in BA and select 'parner' at the top to enter the ordering adress right ...
what is the 'Separate vendor master records must exist for all the partners' mean
it has to be like this?
Vendor master record:1234
LF 1234       /*vendor
BA1235       /*ordering address
1235 vendor master record is created earlier and ordering address maintained ??
please help me in this record, any user manual or some screen shots to explain how to maintain partner roles in vendor master record
regards
Bhushan.N

Hi Sasi ,
What Ramkrishna explained is correct. I will try to illustrate it with the example.
Suppose you are creating a vendor 1234 which is Head office of the supplier where you need to place the order. But goods will be supplied from Pune plant so you should enter 1235 againts partner function GS , here 1235 is seperate vendor master record with Pune plant details & it must exist in the system so that you can use it as a partner function Hope this has cleared your doubts.
Similarly you vcan create other partner functions like payee,ordering party etc.

Account groups for Partner Roles in Vendor Master

1. Can we use same account group to create the vendor master for the different partner roles? for the partner roles like goods supplier, invoicing party, order party, etc do all these need to have different account groups , example one account group for goods supplier, one account group for invoicing party, etc , etc.
2. why we need the configuration for partner role in purchasing documents besides partner role settings for vendor account group. what is the logic behind to have partner role dependent settings for purchasing documents.
If we do not maintain for partner role settings for purchasing documents what effects it will cause?

> 1. We can have 1 account group represent all partner role or separate account group for each role.
1.If we use the same account group, the field selection control for fields will be applicable to partner roles also. If we have made vendor schema as mandatory in vendor master than we have to assign to partner vendor also. Example ordering address will not require company code data only purchase data, it will not require also pricing procedure as mandatory as no price determination will be required for ordering address.
I think we have to use combination of account group -same account group and different account group will defining vendors for partner function.
Do we require to assign vendor schema group to following vendors roles- goods suppliers, invoicing party and payee.
If we do not assign vendor schema group will these partner role determine price from the VN partner role. For example VN (vendor) has vendor schema group assigned, no vendor schema group assigned to invoicing party, then while doing MIRO the invoicing party will be defaulted. Do the price determined for VN role will be populated for invoicing party in MIRO?
> 2. we need partner role in purchasing doc because we can copy partner role from vendor master to purchasing document
It means we need to assign similar roles in schema for vendor account group and purchasing documents. If you see the schema in config for partner determination in IDES system, different roles exists in vendor schema and purchasing document schema.
This is creating confusion for me to understand.
Please clarify
2. we need partner role in purchasing doc because we can copy partner role from vendor master to purchasing document

Partner roles in vendor master

Dear All,
we have raised a PO to vendor 400035, goods are supplied from vendor 400036 and invoice is received from vendor 400037. we have defined partner roles for vendor 400035(account group COMP).
VN-400035
GS-400036
IP-400037.
These partner roles are assigned to account group:
GS-0001- GOODS SUPPLIER
IP-0002-INVOICING PARTY
Defined partner schema H1 under partner settings in vendor master record.
this schema is assigned to account group COMP( That have vendor 4500035) at POrg, VSR, Plant Level.
Partner schema for purchasing document is defined.
it is assigned to document type.
ISSUE
1.When we are raising a PO the schema is appearing in partner Tab. The different invoicing party 400037 is pulled from vendor master record into PO. when doing MIRO, it is not appearing subsequently as the default value when invoice is posted. in MIRO it is appearing as 400035 instead of 400037.
2.same is the case in MIGO, in partner TAB 400035 is appearing instead of 400036.
please help on both issues where invoicing party should appear autimatically in MIRO and goods supplier in MIGO.
QUESTIONS
1. Is it necessary to have VN in schema. is the partner role VN required in schema. if VN is removed output determination doesnot take place.
2. what is difference between assigning vendor role to account group and to a document type? why it is required ?
can be use only one of them.
regards

Hi,
There are just 4 mandatory steps:
1: Define partner role
2: Define permisssable partner roles per account group
3: Define Partner Schemas
4: Assign Partner Schemas to Account Groups
You have setup your partner determination on purchasing org level.
But you forgot that you create a purchase order on plant level, which is a lower (more detailed) level. If the higher level box is left blank in your partner determination setup, then SAP tries to find partner on plant level. As you don't have partner on plant level maintained in your vendor, SAP can't find the vendor.
IMG > Materials Management > Purchasing > Partner determination > Partner Settings in Purchasing Documents > Define Partner Schemas
select your partner schema and then double click Partner roles in schema on the left.
In the appearing screen you can see the colomn for higher level
Then create a fresh PO and check.

Partner roler in vendor master

Hi,
A vendor is providing me some services. The amount of service tax is calculated using the tax code.
My issue is I have to pay the amount of service to the vendor and the tax calculated I have to deposit to government on his behalf.
Amount of service = 100 (paid to vendor)
Tax @12.5%= 12.5 (to be deposited to government)
How this can be achieved during miro?
this is the case of transporter where i pay him the amount after deducting TDS and where I deduct the service tax and then i deposit to govt on his behalf. this case arise as in india most of the transporters donot compile with the service tax norms or are not registered
This is the case of somewhat similar to 2 different invoicing parties where some amount is to be credited to one vendor and some to the other vendor?
regards

Hi,
As per standard sap you can distribute the costs to differrant account assignments rather gl accounts. i don't feel we can distribute to differrant vendors, if we treat that the government as vendor for tax.
During miro process the the taxes will be posted to claring account ffor tax account.
you can ask your fi guys to set a bank account for government taxes so that during their payment programme they can see that the taxes are routed to this account and the tax account gets cleared.

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.

Hi,
Before vendor creation, you have following configuration steps:
1. Create Vendor Account Group.OBD3
2. Maintain Number Ranges from Vendor account Group:XKN1,
3.Assignment of Number ranges to Account Group,OBAS
4.Partner Function: SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination-> partner roles->Permissible partner role sper account group
5.Partner Schema:
SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Define partner Schema
6.Assgin partner schema to accont Group

& then after above steps, you can create vendor with XK01 t.code by entering company Code,Vendor account group and purchase organisation.
Note:what is partner role:Generally during in your business transaction process we are specifying the roles involved by vendor i.e..... vendor act as a Goods Suplier, Ordering Address, Invoice Processing. Here all these functional activities by vendor we termed as partner functions (GS,IP, OA) in partner determination Process. SAP has standard Partner role and its 2 characters.
Example: A company supplying goods/material having plant in Hyderabad, south India branch office is in bangalore and head office is in Delhi.So hyderabad plant is your"GS",banglaore office is your"OA" and Delhi office is "IP"where you pay to Vendor. for the procurred material/goods.

Using Business Partner versus Customer/Vendor master

What could be the business scenarios in ERP2005, when Business Partner (BP) functionality should be used rather (or addition) than older Customer/Vendor master?
I know that in CRM the BP is mandatory, but still CRM can interact with ERP's customer master using middleware replication. I also know that some ERP industry solutions like IS-U uses BP instead of customer master.
I know that when maintaining a partner with tcode BP, also the customer master tables (KNA*) gets updated if partner has a Sales role. Thus system automatically updates both BP and customer master data. But does it work other way round?
But if no CRM nor ERP industry solutions are within current solution landscape are there any other business scenarios why BP should be chosen instead of customer/vendor master?
In a virgin ERP2005 project, is it a good practise to start with BP already from the beginning even if benefits of it are not yet recognized?
I know that many ERP2005 projects are live without BP, so a it cannot be a "must" at least.
best regards,
Kim

Hi,
Just to check, try running from the synchronization cockpit for your scenario from the master data reconcillation. Give your BP number and try running BP -- Customer sync. In this you can check the PPO logs and check where the error is. It will show the exact error you are getting.
For BP, you can also try creating it in FI customer role, which will have all the customer master data.

Ravi

Partner Functions in Vendor Master

Hi,
We have a requirement to use different Remit to address in many of the vendors. So I created a vendor with account group 0004 (Invoice presented by) and attached to main vendor LIFE ( Main vendor). I need some understanding on below points -
1. what is difference between Invoice present by and Alternate Payee? Which we need to use for Remit to address?
2. If we have remit to address, then still does it need to give Reconciliation account for main Vendor?
3. In case of different remit to address which account group we need to use for creating main vendor between 0001 and LIFE?
4. In general (Not with remit to address) which account group will be better to use for creating main vendors between 0001 and LIFE or KRED?
Thanks for your valuable inputs.
Best Regards

Vendor Number not coming in partner functions in vendor master

Hi,
I am facing a peculiar issue with the vendor master.
I am creating a vendor having a account group z001 to which the number range is assigned as internal (only) and in the Partner Schema the vendor VN is defined as mandatory and checked for higher level.
When entering the data on reaching the partner function tab the first line item where we enter ahve the vendor details of VN it is coming blank in the non-editable mode where we have the vendor number cell. I noticed as I number range is internal till the vendor is saved the number is not assigned so in the partner tab in the first line item the number is blank.
On saving and going back to vendor in change mode I am finding the partner VN line item in non-editable mode and the vendor number is blank and I am not able to enter the number also.
How to overcome this issue.
Please guide me..
Thanks,
Vengal Rao.

Hi Diwakar,
Thanks for the response. As it is mandatory it is coming , but as it is defined as internal number, the number is assigned to vendor after saving only.
So if I got back to same vendor and see what is the partner no appearing in the first row, I see the number as blank, when I try to add the same number in change mode it is not allowing as the realted line ie first line is in non-editable mode. Here VN , and description VENDOR is coming but number not coming, and I am not able to add the number also.
This is my issue.
Thanks,
Vengal Rao.

In this you need to pass the combination values of

Reconciliation account role in vendor master

Please provide the detail about role of reconciliation a/c in vendor master

Reconciliation account in typical accounting terms would " Control account ".
Means the creditors account in which you want to show the outstanding .
like Creditors for Materials or Creditors for services or Creditors for other purchase etc.
So let say you are posting any invoice of expense then system would pass the entry like this :
Expense A/c Dr. 100
To, Creditors materials A/c 100 .
So in sundry creditors it would show as Rs 100 outstanding and in subledger that is vendor account you will see that 100 Rs. as open item .
Cheers ,
Dewang
