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.

Mohan.

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,

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.

To change/update/delete partner function in Sales order before saving it...

Hi! All,
I am having a unique requirement to change the partner function( BIll to party and Ship to party) for standard sales order in the order save badi implemtation.
Please sugest a FM that will be appropriate for this functionality.
One more thing that i am able to do is that i am able to add one more BIll to party and Ship to party in the order but I am not able to delete the exsisting Bill to and ship to partner function from that order, SO if there is any Fm that will delete the exsisting ship to and bill to party my purpose would be solved.
Please provide your suggetionas how can I proceed further.
Thanks and regards,
Mayank

Hi,
use the CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN FM for changing the partners. Fill in the IT_PARNTER and the CT_INPUT_FIELDS parameters.
For how to fill in I advise you set a breakpoint in this FM and do a partner change in the Sales Order Document.
You can also find a lot of threads in the forums regarding the ORDER_MAINTAIN FM.

Creation of Multiple billing documents from a Single sales order

Hi Experts,
How can we create many billing documents from a Single sales order.
Will it be possible we create a Sales order with bigger quantity and then keep on creating partial billing documents based on the billing quantities and dates.
Request you all for a solution.
Thanks
Montee

Hi ,
1. If Qty is one number - based on value of the order - it is possible to create different billing doc.'s based on billing date and value using billing plan , again these are periodic billing or milestone billing
2. Using Contract process- create material /qty contract- release partial qty by creating release document and create billing document w.r.t to contract or release document (sales order)
thanks

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.

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.

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.

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 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 ?

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.

Clearing the the street,Postal code and city in partner tab at sales order

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement like in sales order header or Item, In partners tab, when they are selecting the particular partner function like CR and the customer number is 500, and if they press enter then automaticaly it fetches the name,street,postal code and city at the right side for that entry. My requirement is like for particular customer 700, they want to hide the customer address in that Partner tab while sales order creation VA01. If they select the partner function CR and customer 700, after pressing enter, it shouldn't fetch the automatic address of that customer. They just want the customer name and remaining fields like street,postal code,city should be blank.
Can you please let me know how to reach this requirement ate sales order creation or change level in partner function tab.
I test these exits EXIT_SAPLV09A_001 to EXIT_SAPLV09A_004 but no use. Let me know possible ways to achieve this?
Any idea on these?
Thanks in advance ,
Edited by: dolly B on Jan 18, 2010 11:36 AM

Hi,
This is happening because you have not maintained your data in sales order.
Billing document takes the reference of order and delivery document for taking the data.
Now if you donu2019t maintain your partner function in order nor in delivery then it wont be determine in billing document.
If you want ZZ to shown in billing document then you have to make that function visible in sales order.
While creating sales order it will take it from customer master data but when you are creating billing it wont search in customer master data it will search in sales order only.
You can do one thing make that function non modifiable in partner determination procedure.
So it cant be change in sales order.
But I want to know why you want that should not be visible in sales order.
Hope so I will be correct with my explanation.
Regards
Raj.

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
sreenivas peruru

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...
THanks,

Multiple Pricing Procedure in a single sales order

i have come across in a scenarion where i need to have multiple pricing procedures in a single sales order.
Does SAP support this functionality ?
actually i am using a free goods, so for the trade item i want it to be charged at "SALES GL-Code" and for free good item i want it be be charge at "BONUS GL-Code".
can anyone help me out that how can i handle this situation.

Hi,
Do not repeat the same question in different forums..
to answer your question:
No, not possible to have multilple pricing procedures to a single document.
For your scenario, the trade item will be charged as lets say PR00, and this will have an account key mapped to GL1
and for the free item, use the discount ctype R100 and map it to another GL--bonus GL and this should help you with your scenario.

Raghu.

Change of partner analyse in sales orders

Hello,
I changed the partner analyse for sales orders and added a new mandatory partnerrole.
In new documents the partner analyse works fine, but in the existed sales documents I cant´t see, that a mandotory role is missing.
How can I see that this role is missing in the exsting documents???
Thanks for info
Nicole

You can create a custom report but there is no standard way to do this.
When a document is created in SAP, it is a "snapshot" of that configuration, master data, and information as it exists when the document is created. On the SD side there are a few things you can influence, for example, SAP contains some standard tools for mass updating of pricing information. Most of the document exists in its unchanged state though.
You *may* be able to use VA05 and do this (although I doubt it, no system in front of me right now). Other than that transaction or a custom report there really aren't a lot of options.
If you are familiar enough with the tables, you can do a "quick view" or an ABAP Query to get the info. However the SAP partner table is recursive so to avoid getting lots and lots of duplicates you will either have to add some code to a full query, or do offline manipulation of the data.
If you're looking for soild SAP experience to help through some of these hurdles, please contact me.
