Issue in Partner Function

Hi all,
I have an issue. I have created a customer say 'A' and a ship to party say 'B' and 'C'.
In customer master of 'A', I have assigned ship to party 'B'. At the time of order creation for 'A', system shows me 'B' as possible option for ship to party. I manually enter ship to party C there and system does not give any error. I want that system should accept only those ship to parties that are maintained in customer master at the time of sales order creation.
Any idea for that?
Many Thanks
Best Regards,
AI.

Dear AI,
Try this:
IMG - Sales and Distribution - Basic Functions - Partner Determination - Set Up Partner Determination - Set Up Partner Determination for Sales Document Header -
Select TA - Standard Order &  then select Partner FUnctions in Procedure (from Left side).
Here for the required Partner Functions (SP, SH, BP & PY) in Origin (Table) maintain "C"
C - stands for - Partner function from customer master (table KNVP).
This will ensure that partner Functions are taken only from Customer Master.
Hope this helps...
Thanks,

  • Partner Function

    ISSUE:  1   Partner Functionality - After entering a line item in PO, PI partner disappers and needs to be re-entered again.
    Account Group Z001 using VN and PI partners.  This is the purchasing vendor.  If Accounting needs to have a different Remit To Address from their Order From Address, a Z004 Account Group Partner is set up and linked to the Z001 VN vendor.  During Purchase Order Entry, when you enter a vendor, the remit to and invoicing partner functionality comes in.  To verify, look at the partner tab in the header BEFORE adding any item detail.  Once, you enter one line, go back and check the partner tab.  Only the VN partner role is there.  The PI role is no longer there.  You need to manually add the PI role and vendor number associated with the PI role.  After that, everything works.  The problem is with the PI role disappearing after one line item is added to the PO.

    Hi otto,

    We have to  maintain partner function at plant level then only it will appear in PO.

  • Change default value of Partner Function in VA02

    Hi all,
    Can anyone please help me solve the following issues with Partner Functions in VA02:
    1. How do I change the screen property (make it modifiable) of the Partner in the Partners tab for an auto-generated Free goods line item?
    2. How can I change the default value (auto-pulled from KNVP) of the Partner Function Ship-To party for a Free Goods line item? Where do I apply the ABAP code?
    We tried to modify thru userexit USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION and USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP in MV45AFZZ but we can't seem to make it work. Also, the table control of the partners tab exists in SAPLV09C and not SAPMV45A.
    Where do we apply the changes?
    Points will be rewarded.
    Thanks for any help in advance!
    Kat

    Hi !! KT,
    For your auto generated line of free goods item note down what is the item catergory determined. Next use t.code VOPAN, click on radio button 'Sales Document Item' and click on change tab.
    Now from the left hand margin options click on 'Partner determination Procedure Assignment', from 'position' go to the item catergory noted down, now note down the partner determination procedure assigned to it.(entry just next to your item category).
    Next, from the left hand margin double click on 'Partner determination procedures'. Select the partner determination procedure just noted down, from the left hand margin now click on 'Partner functions in procedure'. Scroll down exactly to the partner function you want to work upon, here unselect the tick under 'Non modifiable'. This way you can now modify the partner.
    For changing the default value after doing the above mentioned exercise you can overwrite default value.
    Provide your feedback.

  • 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.

  • Replication of Partner Function from CRM 5 to ECC6 Issue

    Hi experts
    Is someone able to assist with pointing me in the correct direction to resolve a partner function replication issue please. We create all entities/BPs in CRM, and replicate them to ECC.
    We have a custom partner function, ZF, that is held against Payer and Sold-to in ECC. This is a separate entity in CRM, but is sent according to relationship assignment to ECC. We have noticed that this partner function is not being updated correctly.
    Scenarios:
    Ending a relationship between Account/Customer (Payer/sold-to in ECC) and the Farm (ZF partner function) - the ZF partner function is removed in ECC. This is correct behaviour.
    New Account or Customer creation in ECC with ZF relationship assigned, ZF partner function is being created in ECC. This is correct behaviour.
    HOWEVER, when adding a new ZF relationship in CRM to an existing Payer/Sold-to, the ZF partner function does not get created in ECC. This is incorrect behaviour - new valid relationship should trigger ZF partner function in ECC.
    Also, name changes to the ZF maintained in CRM, is not being updated in ECC for existing relationships. Instead, the Partner Function tab, ZF type, displays the old name for the Farm.
    BUPAREL bdocs are being created and sent to ECC, however something is happening on the receiver end. How do we trace this, and does anyone have any ideas on where to start to find out what is happening here?
    Many thanks

  • Partner Function Issue

    Dear all,
    I have an issue wherin the system is allowing me to change the Ship To in the sales order and this Ship to is not a part of the Partner to sold to and the order is allowing me to enter any SHip To and getting Saved. Can you pls let me know where is the setting for this and not to allow any other ship to's to be manually entered in the SO.
    Thanks
    Srikkanth

    Dear Srikkanth,
    There are two issue in your qestion:
    1. Not allow any other **** to party then the one mentioned in Sold to party
    2. Do not allow to change the Ship to party.
    Now the solutions to the above issues are as follows:
    1. IMG - Sales and Distribution - Basic Functions - Partner Determination - Set Up Partner Determination - Set Up Partner Determination for Sales Document Header - Select TA - Standard Order & click on " Partner Functions in Procedure" on the left hand side.
    Here for combination of TA & SH (Ship to party) Maintain "SP" in the source feild.
    2. In the same menu path mentioned above - Put Tick mark in the check box of Not Modifiable so that user cannot change the Ship to party proposed by the system from the Sold to party.
    Hope this solves...
    Thanks,

  • Partner function issues while creating SA using LSMW

    Hi,
    I am opening a new thread (though similar question has been put by Vihaan in below thread)
    Tax code in SA - LSMW
    We are creating SAs via LSMW IDOC method (Message Type - PURSAG_CREATE and Basic Type - PURSAG_CREATE01), all our SAs being created w r to Contract and Contract has multiple OA and PI partner functions. So while creating SA we are passing unique OA and PI value (from list of valid OA/PI avaialble in contract) in LSMW structures - E1BPMEOUTPARTNER and E1BPMEOUTPARTNERX.
    Values passed are mentioned below:
    E1BPMEOUTPARTNER               Partner Information for Outline Agreement
        Fields
            PARTN_ROLE                   Partner Function
                                Rule :   Constant
                                Code:    E1BPMEOUTPARTNER-PARTN_ROLE = 'BA'.
            PLANT                        Plant
            SUBRANGE_TX                  Description of Vendor Subrange
            LANGU                        Language Key
            LANGU_ISO                    Language according to ISO 639
            PARTNR                       Reference to other vendor
                                Rule :   Constant
                                Code:    E1BPMEOUTPARTNER-PARTNR = '1XXXXXXXX9'.
            DEF_PARTNR                   Default Partner
                                Rule :   Constant
                                Code:    E1BPMEOUTPARTNER-DEF_PARTNR = 'X'.
            DELETE_IND                   Deletion Indicator in Purchasing Document
    E1BPMEOUTPARTNERX              Change Parameter Partner Data (Outline Agreement)
        Fields
            PARTN_ROLE                   Partner Function
                                Rule :   Constant
                                Code:    E1BPMEOUTPARTNERX-PARTN_ROLE = 'BA'.
            PLANT                        Plant
            SUBRANGE_TX                  Description of Vendor Subrange
            LANGU                        Updated information in related user data field
            LANGU_ISO                    Updated information in related user data field
            PARTNR                       Updated information in related user data field
                                Rule :   Constant
                                Code:    E1BPMEOUTPARTNERX-PARTNR = 'X'.
            DEF_PARTNR                   Updated information in related user data field
                                Rule :   Constant
                                Code:    E1BPMEOUTPARTNERX-DEF_PARTNR = 'X'.
            DELETE_IND                   Updated information in related user data field
    Now issue is SAP is not recognizing above mentioned partner value and throwing error as Following mandatory roles missing in partner maintenance: OA
    If the reffered contract has single OA and PI LSMW is running fine and creating SA successfully but issue is coming only when we have multiple OA/PI.
    Has anybody faced similar issue or aware if any OSS note which resolves this issue, please advise.
    Thanks,
    Yogesh

    Hi Jurgen,
    I have created a separate source structure for passing partner function and now have below source structure:
    Source Structures
           HEADER_SA            Header Structure
               PARTNER_SA          PARTNER STRUCTURE (Lower level to Header)
               ITEM_SA              Item Structure (Lower level to Header but at the same level as Partner)
    Then created a separate file for partner having both OA and PI value as shown below (ID is common field between all three structures Header, item and Partner):
    ID     PARVW     LIFN2     DEFPA
    1     BA     1XXXXXXX9     X
    1     RS     1XXXXXXX7     X
    Now after convert data step it considers above values for partner role but still LSMW fails with same error "Mandatory PF missing, OA, PI"
    Also, one more info wanted to share- if in my contract I put a tick mark against one of the partner OA/PI in DEFAULT BOX, it works fine but that does not make any sense as the whole pupose of having multiple OA/PI is to give option to business of selecting one of the avaialble OA/PI.
    FYI - I have opened a customer message to SAP, let see what they suggest.
    Thanks,
    Yogesh

  • Vi01 - Issue in conversion of partner function data in VTPA table

    Dear All,
    In VI01 tcode while creating shipment cost document, system gives error message as see log.
    "Item not created because service agent CR not in reference document".
    When debug, it is found that system is not converting data of table VTPA from PARVW (SP) to CR in following FM.
    SD_SCD_ITEM_INITIALIZE
    at line no. 55
    * determine relevant partner
      READ TABLE I_REFOBJ-VBPA INTO L_VBPA_WA
                               WITH KEY POSNR = I_TSNUM
                                        PARVW = I_TVFT-PARVW   BINARY SEARCH.
    please help if anyone has idea of this type of error.
    Thanks in advance,
    Rajesh Vasudeva

    In general I would focus on the message "Item not created because service agent CR not in reference document"
    Do you have any proof that a CR partner is in the reference document? screen shots from document or table?
    You probably know that a partner function key is a German abbreviation SP = Spediteur
    And in customizing you actually maintain that SP is e.g. CR for carrier in english
    Looking at your document you should then see a partner CR, looking into the table you would  see a SP  if the conversion exit is not active in your SE16, or you see a CR if the conversion is activated.
    So far the coding does not tell much.
    But the message says that a CR partner is missing.
    I would suggest you check your customizing to find the relation from the original key to your CR.
    then check the reference documents if you have a partner for this role.

  • SPL partner function issue

    Hi,
    I have setup partner function LF(vendor) in SPL screening in GTS system.
    I have created a vendor and sent to GTS and got screened and no SPL block.
    But when I pass PO created using this vendor it says blocked for SPL.
    I see following 2 messages in spl log
    1.SPL screening for partner 46, partner role LF
    - partner address not found in any SPL list
    My comments - this is green and partner 46 exists and clear
    2.SPL screening for partner LF, partner role LF
    - partner address is identified in the boycott list.
    My comments - this is red and and there is no partner # LF, so why this entry being created. where this partner LF came from?
    Please advice

    hi,
    check also the applications log. That is, checkt the document within GTS again and analyse the detailes results. Are you using any kind of userexit during document transfer? Any idea from where the system could get LF as partner number? Check the document again. How did you set up LF for SPL? What exacty have you done there?

  • Customer Master Partner Functions - Load issue

    As part of Main Customer loads (Soldd-to), we loaded all the Customers. Partner Functions - pointing to same Customer Number - were created for all the Customers.
    Our second step was to create Partners for the sold-to. When we load Partners, they are being 'added' to the existing default Partners but not replacing.
    We used the standard SAP RFBIDE00 in LSMW for this.
    Apart from the 'recording' method, is there any way we can achieve this?
    Best Regards,
    Ram

    Shalom Maya,
    Normally, the fastest way to look for a datasource is to search help.sap.com.
    In this case if seems like for KNVP there is no standard extraction, so might need to create your own generic extractor.
    Take a look at the following posting (It might help you achieve your requirement):

  • 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.

  • Partner function not working when creating PO with ref to PReq

    Partner function is not working when creating a Purchase Order with ref to a Purchase Requistion, Partner functions maintained in the vendor master are VN, OA & PI.
    But OA & PI are not appearing in the PO header partner tab when created with ref to PR.
    however it works when i create the PO directly ( without the PR ref )
    I am using the same material & Plant for both manual PO & PR to PO.
    Any idea what could be wrong .
    I have maintained the settings for schema groups for vendor master & purchasing doc in the partner determination.
    Thanks
    Dkmurthy

    Hi,
    I have also an issue that seems similar to one you are discussing.
    When we use ME59N and create a PO with ref. from a PR (created from a sales order), the message determination works well, it reads the condition set in MN04 (condition records for messages), and creates a message (with output type for EDI , medium: 6, and partner function LS: Logical system). Message is created and idoc is sent.
    When we try with ME21N, ME21 and we create the PO with ref. to the same PR, either by entering manually the PR in the document overview of ME21N or by selecting the PR (without entering the PR number), i.e with date, the message is not created in the PO.
    Company code is assigned to purchase organization, and so is purchase organization to plant.
    Any idea why there is no automatic message determination in the case of the transaction: ME21N
    Note: If I try ME21N, and enter the output type and partner, manually, I receive a warning message
    VN006 (Partner XXXX does not exist for partner function LS). If I accept this warning message, then message is saved- idoc is sent. However I can not overcome the warning message, if it plays any role, because I can not assign partner function LS to the vendor.Then I receive message CZ 327 (Can not use this partner role).
    Any input is wellcome.
