Query: Source of partner function

Dear All,
I have a basic question in partner determination.
I have configured partner determination such that all the required partner functions
appear when the customer master is created.
But how does the system know the source?
I mean, how does the system automatically populate the customer numbers for the partner functions?
Thanks,
nsp.

By default when u select the account group 0001 - when using XD01 to create the customer , th emoment u create sold to party, automatically the system will assign the same number to SH, BP and PY. This depends on the mandatory check mark on sh bp and py in the partner determination.
How the system does this - then you will have to look at the user exit/programs which gets triggered when saving the customer creation screen. By debugging the transaction XD01 during customer creation and when u save it/ if u assign break points to the specific customer creation user exit involved you can see that code.

Partner Function ORG

Could anybody advise what is the purpose of the Partner Function Org field when looking at 'Assign Partner Schema to Transaction Type'

Hi,
One simple way to achieve u r req. is to maintain (BP) relationship for all Representative with Manager (Many to One) in Reps BP maintain relation with manager using Rel category as (FBUR011) Has the Responsible Business Partner.
Next step is to use Access sequence for u r partner function Manager as CRM_PARTNER_C Business Partner Relationships in Details on the source in Partner Function assign u r Representative Partner function.
Do this practice for 50 managers and 500 users i.e. (Each 10 reps=1 manager) revert if any query regarding this.

What is the use of Source Partner function

Dear Experts,
Can you please explain me the exact use of Source Partner Function in Partner Functions in procedures in Customizing.
Is it used to propose only sold to party partner function or any partner function from the master data of particular partner function.
I read SAP standard help but I got confused because of its example. It is as below.
Source partner function
Partner function which serves as an alternative source for determining the sold-to party.
Procedure
If you don't want the system to propose a partner from the sold-to party master record, enter another partner function here. The system will then propose the sold-to party from the master record of your partner function.
Example
If you enter WE (ship-to party) in this field for the function VE (sales employee), when you create the sales document, it determines the sold-to party from the VE partner function in the ship-to party's master document.
kindly reply. thanks in advance

Dear Sagar,
While determining the partner functions you can define that particular partner should be determined from the source partner functions master data.
For example you want to determine the Freight forwarder and you want to make sure that this partner function should be proposed as per the ship to party then in customizing for freight forwarder partner function you will maintain the source as ship to party. Due to this customization when you will be creating the sales order for sold to party x and assume that for x you are having two different ship to party at two distinct locations. For these two locations you have different freight forwarder providing the services(one for each location). So to determine the right freight forwarder the above mentioned customizing will be required. Otherwise system will propose this partner function as per sold to and that will be same for all ship to.
Hope this example will help you to understand the usage of source in partner determination.
Thanks and regards,

Query in Partner Function

Hi all,
I have a query as follows;
The Partner functions are added at the Header level of an order.
How to make these partner functions available at the Item Level also.
Please note that there is not Partner Tab at the Item level.
Regards,
Vijay

Hi,
Check the irem category for that transaction and check the partner function assgned to that. If nothing is there then create a partner determination procedure for that item category and assign the partner functions to that PDP. Then assign that PDP to that item category.
By the way could you please let us know the transaction you r creating?
Thanx

Partner functionality in release order

Dear Gurus,
I have created a contract with partner functionality.
I created a Purchase Requisition referring contract (Using source of supply). I need to create Po in ME21N by adopting PR. System copies all the other details but not partner details. I need to enter partner details manually in PO.
But When I create a PO in ME21N by adopting the same contract, partner details are automatically copied from contract.
Please suggest me what should I do If my PO should copy partner details of contract (while creating PO adopting PR)
Regards,
Sastry

SO check the which details u are updating manually, the same as its maintained in master data or not.
IF not maintain it in vendor master .

PO and partner functions of a contract

Hello,
We have the following problem:
In our system, we maintain partner functions in the partner functions of the vendor.
And for this vendor we have a contract. However, we don't maintain partner functions in the contract.
But when we create a PO for the vendor and the contract, the system looks for partner function in the contract and doesn't look any more for the partner functions in the vendor. but, as we have no partner functions in the contract....partner functions in PO are empty.
I can't find customizing point to indicate that we don't want to look partners functions in contract. Is it possible?
Thanks,

the data is always taken from the most specific source, which is the contract in your case. it is not possible to use contracts and omit at the same time the partners (or not available partners) from the contract.

Partner functions missing in the replicated order

Hi Experts,
I Have created an order in ECC which has replicated to CRM with some errors partner functions are missing. could help me how to solve this problem in below link you can see the detail analysis of the error.

Thanks & Regards
V.Srinivas

Hi V.srinivas,
For Order Replication from ECC system to CRM system your Configurations for both the system must be Coinciding.
Hope your Partner Function Determination in ECC and CRM are also maintained the Same way,else check for the Determination of Sub-Partner Function determination (Ship to Party,Bill to Party..) in ECC and CRM the way its maintained.
The Main Problem arising in your Order is after replication from ECC System your Sub-Partner Functions aren't getting Determined,
Check for the Partner Determination Procedure in CRM for the Sub-Partners and try to Determine them from your Main Partner Function e.g. Sold to Party.
Hope it Solves your Query..

Multiple Partner Functions for a Sales document Item

Hi,
Can you please advise on modeling scenario for showing multiple partner functions for a given sales document in BI Report ..
Because Key figure values should not be distributed for multiple records just becos of multiple partner functions but users want to see them in the reports along with sales doc and key figure
I am explaining bit more clearly...
I can achieve above requirement by having below model ..
SDOC ITEM PF1 PF2 PF3 AMOUNT
1000 10 AB CD EF 50000
PF : Partner Function
but as I feel it is a complicated task to add more and more columns fro partner functions as and when new partner functions have been added or requested to show by users at sales doc level...
So Can you please advise a better solution to meet the same requirement.
Thanks & Regards,
BRK
Please advise me on this scenario
Thanks & Regards,

SalesDoc______Item_______PartnerFunction________Amount
80000_________10_____________A1_______________$1000
80000_________10_____________A2_______________$1000
80000_________10_____________A3_______________$1000
This will be the normal display in the cube if there is only one Partner Function.
But what we need is
SalesDoc______Item_______PartnerFunction________Amount
80000_________10_____________A1_______________$1000
80000_________10_____________A2_________________' '
80000_________10_____________A3_________________' '
The Amount (KF) should be populated only for the first record for a SalesDoc / Item combo.
You load data from source to the ODS, say delta.
Suppose that the below record is already available in the ODS.
SalesDoc______Item_______PartnerFunction________Amount
80000_________10_____________A1_______________$1000
And you get the following data as DELTA in the Data_Package from the source.
SalesDoc______Item_______PartnerFunction________Amount
80000_________10_____________A2_______________$1000
80000_________10_____________A3_______________$1000
If you populate the Amount again for these 2 records, then the total would sum to $3000, which is wrong.
So what we do is,
Write a Select stmt for ALL ENTRIES in Data_Package and fetch the records from the target ODS. Have it in an Internal table, say t_ODS1
Take the SalesDoc / Item from the Data_Package and chk if it is present in the internal table t_ODS1.
If it is present, then populate the Amount as ' ' (Blank)
Else populate the Amount as $1000.
Say, you are getting 3 new records, which is not present in the ODS1.
In that case, your internal table t_ODS1 will be blank.
Now again, we need to populate the Amount only for the first record among the 3 records.
So, here comes the "Flag".
Set the Flag as X, when we populate the Amount.
Everytime chk the Flag <> X.
Only if it is <> X, populate the Amount.
Else Leave it Balnk.
Hope I have explained in detail

Mail to multiple Partner function

Hi,
We are in process of implementing SOLMAN CHARMS .
i have a requirement where i need to send mail to multiple partner function.
I have created a z action , however it gives option to select only one Partner function.
Is there any way to send mail to multiple Partner function or any workaround for this?
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Sangvir Singh

Hello Sangvir,
As stated, you can create multiple actions (if you do that, don't forget to properly tune the action merging). This is the best option, because involves only configuration.
You can also add a few ABAP code in a new implementation of the standard send mail method and add multiple mail destinations in the "To" or "CC" fields. This is simpler than sounds to be. Ask for an ABAPper to analyze the method source code and he/she will adapt it for you in a question of hours.

A new partner function is been defined for a particular customer in r/3?

Hi All,
There is a new partner functions been defined for a customer apart from soldto,shipto,payer,billtoparty partner functions.
The new partner functions is Sales head.
And how to i bring the sales head information from the customer master from r/3 to bw?
Do i need to create a new zobject nor enhance the customer master ? nor simply create an sales head object in bw and define the characteristics as Reference characteristics??
pls help me !!
Thanks
Pooja

Hi,
You should enhance the standard Data source 0customer_attr with that additional partner function (sales head) as per the proper logic and replicate the same . if it is 3.5 that same object( related to that field length and data type) same object can be added as attribute at info object level and do the transfer rules and activate that and try to the load.

Vendor partner functions

Hi SAP gurus,
I have 3 scenarios of Vendor partner function.
So please help me to configure this.
In scenarios 1 & 2 procurement is made from overseas source and supplier, in scenario 1 source & suppliers are different; In scenario two source & supplier are same. In scenario three material is procured locally with possibility of cash purchase or is done under barter scheme.
Waiting for reply.
Points will be rewarded for helpful answer.
Regards,
Ravi.

In scenario 1 source & suppliers are different
How they are differnt if the ordering address is different then use "OA" partner function in the vendor master record
If invoicing party is different then maintain "PI" partner function in the vendor master record.
In scenario two source & supplier are same
No need to maintain partner function.Since same vendor is playing all the roles.

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,
Jignesh Mehta.

Query for getting all function and procedure inside the packages

hi All
Please provide me Query for getting all function and procedure inside the packages
thanks

As Todd said, you can use user_arguments data dictionary or you can join user_objects and user_procedures like below to get the name of the packaged function and procedure names.
If you are looking for the packaged procedures and functions source then use user_source data dictionary
select a.object_name,a.procedure_name from user_procedures a,
user_objects b
where a.object_name is not null
and a.procedure_name is not null
and b.object_type='PACKAGE'
and a.object_name=b.object_name
