Create Partner function: VE Sales Employee / structural authorizations

Hi,
We are running SAP on ERP2005.
We are using structural authorizations to limit managers access to HR data - only own employees.
Now I want a department in our copany who maintain sales orders in VA02 to be able assign a Partner function: VE Sales Employee.
The System read the employee name from HR infotypes.
That is ok for the group members in the department if they are given access via authorisation object P_ORGIN.
The problen is the Manager for the group who have structurel authorizations. She will only be able to assign persons form her own department
Can anybody help me to sove this problem?
Thanks,
c¨,) Finn

What is the need of creating partner functions for sales document type.

Hi SAP (SD-GURUS),
Actually we create partner functions before creating customer ex: sold to party, ship to party, bill to party, and payer.
These partner functions are going to be copied into sales order while processing sales order.
Again what is the need of creating partner functions for sales document type.
Thanks&Regards

There are some Partners you could enter at Sales ORder Level. E.g. Sales Person, Employee Responsible, Forwarding Agent, Broker, etc.
Thus these partner Determination need to be carried out at Sales Order Level & not at Customer Master level.
So we have to configure partner Determination for various levels e.g. Customer Master, Sales Order, Delivery level etc...
Hope this helps...

Replicating partner function (VE=sales employee) from CRM to ECC

Hello, we managed to replicate the ECC customers and contact persons to SAP CRM.
Now we also want to replicate to CRM the partner functions (VE = sales employee) of ECC that are linked to the customer in the sales view. When I replicate the object customer_rel they are not synchronised to CRM. I have maintainted the 'distribution of partner functions from SAP ECC into CRM and vice versa in SPRO.
What are the different steps that I need to do? What am I missing?
Should we be alble to see those relationships on BP in CRM once synchronised? If yes, in which relationship? Since the employee responsible is already filled manually for another function.
Thanks for your help on replicating partner functions from CRM to ECC?
Kr, Anouck

Hi Anouck.
If I've understood correctly, for that you must pass the employees from ECC to CRM first.
You can do this by running report RHALEINI at ECC side, but you must configure some things first (like creating a CRM grouping to indicate the number range for employees, and to activate at CRM side this integration)

How to include a new Z Partner Function in Sales order header drop down lis

Hello SAP experts,
We have come up with a new requirement to include a custom Partner Function-ZI in dropdown of SO header-Partners field.
Current scenario- Presently we are maintaining this partner function ( Say ZI- Institute ) in customer master data-Sales area tab.There could be more than one partners under this PF in master data. While entering sales Order, all partners associated are displayed in Header- partners tab, where only SP, SH, BP, PY partner functions are displayed.
Requirement- 1. Is to provide Drop down of this ZI-Institute partner function (which I did not find presently) in SO header-partners field and user should be able to provide one of partner function as available in Customer master ( as there are more than one partners that can be set in Customer master data but user need to be able to provide ONE of this ZI partner fucntion in DROPDOWN of PF tab in SO header ).
2. In addition, How can I link this new partner function in related sales reports against that particulat order and invoice?
Kindly suggest your valuable inputs as what should be the procedure to get this.
Many thanks in advance.

Go to partner determination by VOPA

Multiple bill to partner function in sales order

How can a partner function be setup that it can appear more than once in a sales order ?
Need to make a sales orders with more than one "bill to partner". When I add the same partner function with another customer in the header of the sales order I get error message VPD012 : "partner function ZX can only occur 1 times in procedure ZEXP (sales document header) .
I searched OSS, and debugged for a while to try to find where that "1" is coming from.
In function SD_PCHECK_PARVW_COUNT_OK, a counter is set to "1" based on the field TPAER-PAREI (line 86). Allthough the flag "unique" is not set in partner function ZX, I get this error.
Some further in the function, there is the comment :
102 * currently uniqueness of a partner is mandatory in sales docs, so
103 * if no CAS-Doc, partner has to be unique if not AA or AW
Perhaps, in sales orders it is not at all possible to use multiple partners with the same partner function in sales orders ?
Anyone having experience with this ?
Thanks,

Hi Dries,
Even after you created your order you can maintain different bill to party.
Go to VA02 screen
Enter your order number.Enter.
Goto item details Partners tab:
Now all the details are in editable mode.enter your bill to party.Make sure your bill to party is in same sales area and company code as of sold to party.After entering the taxes will be redetermined message will come.
Enter.
Save.
Now You do the same for all other items.

Need a user exit to add custom partner function in sales order @ item level

Hi,
Need a user exit to add custom partner function in sales order at item level. Goto --> Item --> Partner.
Thanks,
Thiyagi

HI Leo
To add a condition price for a condition type, this has to be assigned in the pricing procedure. For each condition type in a pricing procedure, we will have access sequences. If we follow this approch, the price is automatically extracted basing on the access sequences when condition records are maintained. For this, no coding is required and everything can be done by configuration by Functional consultant.
Naren is right to point out on the same.
If you need to change the price for a particular condition which already exists, you can go by pricing routines. Go through transaction VOFM for the same.
I advice you to discuss with your functional consultant and understand the requirement and then go for modifying accordingly.
Kind Regards

Partner function for sales contract

Hi
I have to extract Sales related data from SAP R/3 to BW.
Facing issue if someone just changes partner function for Sales contract as they are not captured in any of the standard extractors.
If there is change in partner function for Sales order then it gets captured in 11 vascl but if its for contract then it doesnt get capture.
Any solution ?
Regards,
monika

Hi ! Ivy
I guess there is a option.
Try this out. Use the menu path IMG> Sales & Distribution> Sales> Lists> Set updating of partner index
In the resulting screen, click on 'New Entries' make entries 0 - for sales orders and 4 - for contracts as transaction group. Under the column 'partner function' ener the partner function for which you want the report and save your entries.
Now when you go for executing your report, click on the push button 'Partner functions' ( Say in VA05) , you will have the option for selecting the new partner functions , select and execute your report.
Provide your feedback.

Partner function relationship customer - employee not replicated

Hi Gurus,
We are working on the HR-CRM scenario and we are replicating employees from ECC to CRM. For our purposes we created in ECC 3 custom partner functions.
In CRM we have created and mapped these partner functions, in particular in CRM we have:
u2022Created the relevant custom Relationship categories
u2022Defined the 3 partner functions
u2022Made the mapping for the distribution from ECC to CRM and viceversa
After this we have proceeded as follows:
u2022Replication of the employees from HR to CRM: it works properly
u2022Re - launched the BUPA_REL object in order to update the CRM system
We have used one of these custom partner functions for one customer and as for now these partner functions are not replicated from ECC to CRM.
For instance, in ECC we have a customer with the custom relationship u201CHas the Sales Manageru201D to the employee 90000003.
That employee has been replicated in CRM but the relationship between him and the customer has not been updated in CRM.
Is this the normal behavior? Or there is something missing/wrong in the configuration done?
Thanks a lot.
BR,
Stefano

Hi Dinesh

For that you go to>SPRO>SD>Basic Function> Set UP Partner Determination --> Set up Partner determination for Customer master Data, there you need to do the configuration . For details configuration Please search the forum.
Hope it is helpful for you

Can we view SH's partner functions in Sales Order?

Hi All,
SP has a different SH and FA is assigned to SH in master record. When we create order we can see all the partner functions of SP but we can't see partner functions of SH. User wants to see which FA is assigned to SH. We can only view partner functions of SH in delivery document. Is it possible to view partner functions of SH in sales order as well? Please suggest the ways to configure this setting.
Thanks!!

Hi,
Yes, you can view . Check the Partner determination procedure, include the partner function SH to your partner determination procedure assigned for your sales order.

Mandatory partner function at sales order item level

Hi all,
I'm customizing partner schema at item level for sales order. I have created a custom partner function, I put it in a new sales order item partner procedure and i set this partner function as mandatory (I want that system show me a message if this function is missing at item level in sales order). This partner function is defined only at sales order item level (not at header level or customer master).
If i create and save a sales order with an item type that use the item partner procedure I have created, system don't show me any message for the item custom partner function missing, else if it is set as mandatory in sales order item partner procedure.
I have read some posts in these forums about this functionality, but it seems a different situation.
Someone had a similar type of problem?
Thank you in advance for any possible suggestion.
Regards
Gianpaolo

Hi,
First you have to create a new partner function.
Then assign that partner function to the account group.
Then assign that partner function to partner determination procedure for the item category.
Over here click on the mandatory button also.
Then assign that partner determination procedure to item category.
Then to XD02 and give your customer number and in the partner tab maintain the data for that partner function.
Now go to VA01 and create your sales order you will see you partner function.
If you wont have maintained it in the customer master then it will prompt an error.

BADI_LE_SHIPMENT creating Partner function record?

Hi All,
When creating a shipment from VT01N I am trying to update the partner function field values
PARTNER TYPE (PARVW) and PARTNER under the Partner tab from BADI - BADI_LE_SHIPMENT in SAVE method.
So I am passing
        ls_new_vbpa-kunnr = partner
        ls_new_vbpa-parvw = partner type
and updating/entering new record with these values to into   CHA_SHIPMENTS_AT_SAVE-NEW_VBPA.
But some reason BADI is not updating values in the table (not creating record in table VTPA)
Can anyone tell me the reason? Thanks for your time.
Thanks.

Hi Murali, the solution is when you fill the data in the structure cha_shipments_at_save-new_vbpa[].
Make sure to fill the field UPDKZ with an 'I' or 'U' before appending the information.
                                                             "insert or update flag
w_vbpa-mandt = sy-mandt.            " Client
w_vbpa-vbeln = fp_w_vttk-tknum. " Shipment
w_vbpa-parvw = l_c_char_sp.       " Partner
w_vbpa-lifnr = fp_w_vttk-tdlnr.      " Fordwaring Agent      (in my case)
w_vbpa-updkz = l_c_i.                 " Insert entry in table.
APPEND w_vbpa TO cha_shipments_at_save-new_vbpa[].
Best regards.

Copy partner function from sales order to WBS element

Hello
Does someone know if it is possible to copy the partner function and its assignment from the sales order to the WBS element?
In our project, we create sales order with article having a strategy group (85) view MRP3. Thanks to that a network and a WBS element is created in background based on template. In the template a partner determination procedure is maintained => partner tab in the WBS element is displayed (CJ20N) but the partners maintained in the sales order are not populated.
Is something missing in the customizing?
Is it possible to do it in standard?
Kind regards
Chris

Hello Tison.
I guess you have the Project created with a BAPI in your system in background. As far as I have seen I'd try the following in ABAP to create Partners in the Project Definition: BAPI_BUS2001_PARTNER_CREATE_M or the corresponding method ProjectDefinitionPI.PartnerCreateMultiple. This should happen in background when the Project is created also.
Best regards.

Making Mandatory of Partner functions in Sales Order

Hi All,
My requirement is as follows:
While creating configenment Issue with ref to Fillup, In Sales Order Header(Issue) Bank Partner function should be mandatory.
For that I have tried:
In Partner function i have made the Partner as mandatory( I have ticked on Check box(M)).But still it is solving the purpose.In fact in the Bank Partner customer Number is getting copied.
Please advice for the same
Regards,
Vinay

Hi Vinay,
If you set field "Mandatory function" in partner determination procedure for bank Partner function,
then the document is incomplete when the partner is missing.
However, bank partner function couldn't be the only one mandatory function, because sold-to, ship-to, bill-to and payer are also mandatory according to standard design. Please refer to note 381062.

Issue while uploading Partner Function in Sales Order through LSMW

Dear All,
I have to make change some partner function at item level in existing sales order. I have created the LSMW for changing the partner function at item level. But while recording the system field (Field Name ) will maintained as beow:
GVS_TC_DATA-REC-PARTNER(08)
GVS_TC_DATA-REC-PARTNER(09)
It will run successully when at line item the Partners which i have to change are availble at 08 & 09 level. But in some cases the partners are available on differnet position, in that case my LSMW will not work.
Is there any solution for the same.
Thanks in advance.
PM
Edited by: PM on Mar 7, 2012 6:47 AM

Hi,
This is the most common drawback while using LSMW. The position should be the same for all records to update the partner function. Else, think of of writing a BDC or manually updating it.
