Ship to party & Sold to Party partner functions anamoly

Hi all,
I was just thinking why a Ship to party cannot be a Sold to party?
Say, if an enterprise.say, XYZ Pvt. Ltd. sales Steel almirahs.XYZ Pvt Ltd places the order of steel almirahs and then the same XYZ Pvt Ltd. itself receives the order for his business. Then here XYZ being a ship to party also places the order and hence is a sold to party!!
It is quite possible that same client can be ship to party as well as sold to party then?
Then why it is written in SAP manuals that a ship to party can't be a sold party as well?

Hi,
Sold to party and Ship to party can be same and in many cases depending on the business scenario, they will be the same.
The perspective in which the relationship between them is quoted is as follows.
We will have 2 different account groups for sold to party and ship to party.
If a customer is created with the account group of the sold to party, the same customer number can also be used as Ship to party. However if a customer is created with the acc.group of ship to party, this customer can be used only as ship to party and not as Sold to party. This is what is explained in all SD manuals.
Coming to our case, if you want a customer to be both sold to party and ship to party, you have to create this customer master using the account group of the sold to party (not using the account group of the ship to party). If this is done, the same customer can be used as both sold to party and ship to party.
Hope this clears ur doubt. If you have any qns, pls let us know.

Configuring Ship to party,Sold to party and Payer

Hi Experts ,
Subject:- Ship to Party, Sold to Party and payer
In the customized invoice the client requires the above mentioned addresses to be displayed.
Because all these three Partners are Different.
How to configure the same in sap. Only after configuring in sap the same will be reflected in the invoice
Guide me in this regard.
Thanks and Regards,
Anand

Hi,
In General Only the Payer and the Ship to address will print on the invoice. As it is a client requirement to print three addresses on the Invoice, first you should talk to ABAPER to identity the window for the three addresses
Now you can get the Address from VBPA which is the partner table.
Pick the Sales docment number which is VBELN and then goto VBPA table and get the numbers for the customer (payer and ship to and sold to) with the input key as PARVW . The Address wil be different for each partner function,
Then pick the ADRNR number and goto ADRC table
There u can find the fields in which the address will be stored and print on the printer using smartform and program.

Hi all,

Thanks in advance,
Praveena

Hi SRI
The table VBPA ( partner table) stores data about all parties of each document.
Give the document key here, and give PARVW = SH and you will get ship to party for that doc.
Hope this helps.
Note : The value SH is internally stored as WE. There is a conversion exit. But in queries you can give SH.

Sales Order-Shipping Conditions from Sold-to-Party

Hi Guys
When sales order created, shipping conditions copied from Sold-to-Party. At that time, in SP, shipping conditions maintained wrongly.
After creating Sales Order, shipping conditions modified in SP, but system not allowing to modify shipping conditions in sales order. Because of this, shipping point has not been determined. Could not change manually also.
Please suggest on this.
Regards
Uma

Dear Uma
On your comments
"Because of this, shipping point has not been determined",
I dont think, it could be bcoz of shipping condition.
If Shipping Point is not flowing in sale order, then you need to check in OVL2 where you have to maintain the shipping point for the combination of Shipping Condition from Customer Master, Loading Group from Material Master and Plant. So check whether you maintained this.
Meanwhile, with regard to the field Shipping Condition which you could not make change, please note that even if subsequent documents are generated, this field will be in editable mode only and if you try to change, system will give you a message
- Shipping Conditions were changed, Redetermine Routes and shipping of all items
and if you click "Redetermine", the new shipping condition will take place.
So, can you please let me know whether your sale document type is copied from standard OR where the screen controls are there.
thanks

Ship to party partner function

HI,
A customer having 10 nos of ship to party location,please give me the solution how to define in customer master partner function & during delivery how to choose right ship to party location.
Thanks,
Miku.

Hi,
Customer Master
- First create your Sold to Party in Tx; XD01 using Account Group "Sold to" (Eg: 001)
- Then create those 10 ship to parties in Tx: XD01 using Account Group "Ship to" (Eg: 0002)
- Go to XD02 transaction and call your sold to party number.
- Go to sales area data and go to partner function tab.
- Enter all those 10 ship to parties there under partner function "SH"
- Save
Sales Order
Now go to VA01 to create the sales order.
- When you press enter after entering the sold to party, system will give a pop up with those 10 ship to parties. Select relevant one for the sales order header.
- When create new line items, same ship to party (From the header) will get copied as well.
- You can change the ship to party (one out from those 10) in the line item level partner tab. (Delete the ship to party number appear under partner functions "SH" and enter relevant number there)
In that manner you can have one sales order with multiple ship to parties in different line items.
Delivery
In delivery creation, you have to give the sales order line item. (In other words, delivery is for one ship to party in that line item)
- If you have to do combine deliveries (For multiple sales order line items in one delivery), all those line items should have same ship to party.

Thanks a
Basavaraj

Hi,
This is what you needs to do.
Create your Sold to Party "A" using the Account Group "Sold to Party" from Tx: XD01
Then Create your Ship to Party "B" using the Account Group "Ship to Party" from Tx: XD01
Then go to you Sold to Party using Tx: XD02
Go to Sales area data / Partner tab
Add your Ship to Party "B" there with Partner Function "Ship to Party"
Save
Now create a sales order from Sold to Party "A"
Enter Sold to Party "A" and press enter
You will get a pop up to select relevant Ship to Party for the Sales Order Header level with "A" or "B"
Select relevant one at there.
If you select "B" at the header, same will get copied to all line items later. Else you can select "A" and then change only the relevant line item partner to Ship to "B" at Item level as well.
When you create delivery, relevant Ship to will be picked form the line item level.
You can do same for Bill to Party and Payer as well.
Best regards,
Anupa
