Sold-to-party cannot be changed

I have created a sales order with SP ...0001 now i want to change the SP to 0002
.both 0001 and 0002have different sales area.It doesnot allow 001 to be changed
Why a sales area for a sold-to-party is not redetermined?
What factors restrict it?

Hi Nikhil,
If I have correctly understood your question, then you mean to ask why the Sales Area is not redetermined in the Sales Order, when you try enter the different Sold to party.
Firstly, as soon as you save the Sales Order, the Sold to Party field becomes greyed out ( Non ediatable).
Secondly, the sales area is mandatory data at the Initial selection screen while creating the Sales Order. The Sales area is not determined from the Sold to party. It is the other way round. The Sold to party is checked, whether it is of the same Sales Area, as you have entered in the initial screen.
I hope this input will help you understand the logic better.
Regards,

  • Can sold to party can be changed in billing

    hi
    can sold to party can be changed in billing doc . how?
    thanks&regards.

    Hi,
    Fortunately this is not possible in standard SAP otherwise the whole process will go for a toss.
    Also logicaly speaking it should not be done otherwise there will no link between the Sales order and Billing document from customer point of view.This will have serious effects on reports and accounts as well.
    Reward points if useful.

  • Change the Sold to Party(SP) in sales order in change mode

    Hi,
    Is it possible to change the Sold to Party(SP) in sales order in change mode?
    If yes then How??
    Regards
    Somnath

    Hi somnath,
    It is very much possible to change the sold-to-party in the change mode of Sales order(VA02).
    Goto VA02-->enter the sale order number.
    Press enter.
    In the overview screen if you change the sold-to-party then every thing will be redetermined(Taxes and pricing procedure etc...).These will be determined from CMr etc.
    You cannot change the sold-to-party at the partners tab that is present in the Header details.
    It will be greyed out.
    If you change the sold-to-party at the overview screen as suggested earlier it will not apply to the item.
    You are also going to see this message while changing.
    And finally save the document.

  • Change sold-to party BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to change partner function AG (sold-to-party) in a sales order header from within ABAP code ?
    I'm using BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE function module to change partner functions. It works well for all other partner functions, but for the AG ("sold-to-party") function it yields a message saying that changing AG function is impossible.
    Although changing "sold-to-party" partner function is disabled in user interface (VA02 transaction -> order header details), but the user DOES have the possibility to change "sold-to-party": he can change field KUNNR in main screen of transaction VA02 (this field is mapped to VBAK-KUNNR) - after changing it, the AG partner function in header details changes to the value set in it. Does anyone have an idea how to achieve the same from ABAP code ?

  • Regarding Sold to party

    Hi Friends
    Can we change sold to party to ship to party
    or
    Ship to party to Sold to party
    If possible what is the procedure
    Plz reply me

    Hi,
    Changes to the account group and the accompanying partner functions can only be made from a lower level to a higher level.
    For example, this means that a sold-to party cannot be assigned the function of a payer as fields which have already been maintained for this sold-to party would have to be masked. However, you can assign the sold-to party function to a payer.
    You can change the account group for the following partner functions:
    Ship-to party, Bill-to party, Payer.
    So a ship-to-party can be changed to Sold-to using  XD07.

    Hi,
    Is it possible,
    Go to SE16N >>> put table TPAER (Tickmark to maintain entries - just put &sap_edit  and enter tick mark will appear)>>> Put partner determination procedure as -TA & execute
    Now select your SP and remove X from no change column & save it
    Note : if any body run t-code VOPA, then this indicator reset automatically, so block partner determination.

  • Change sold to party in sales order

    hi all.
    can anyone help me out in changing the sold to party in sales order where can we change
    Thanks
    sridhar

    Dear sridhar
    If no subsequent document is generated, you can change the sold to party in VA02.  If delivery or invoice is generated, then you cannot change the sold to party in sales order.  Either you have to reverse / cancel those subsequent documents or create a fresh order
    thanks

  • Change order type based on sold to party

    Hi all,
    Is there any user exit to change the order type based on Sold to party.
    Eg: if any user select some sold to party during sales order creation then using sold to party the order type is changed.
    Any suggestions welcome.
    Regards,

    Hi Navadeep,
    Please try with these
    The program MV45AFZB   
    USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAK                                                     
    This user exit can be used to carry out additional checks (e.g. for     
    completion) in the document header. The system could, for example,      
    check whether certain shipping conditions are allowed for a             
    particular customer group.     
    The program MV45AFZZ                                                                               
    USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION                                        
    This user exit can be used to modify the attributes of the screen  
    fields.                                                            
    To do this, the screen fields are allocated to so-called           
    modification groups 1 - 4 and can be edited together during a      
    modification in ABAP. If a field has no field name, it cannot be   
    allocated to a group.                                              
    The usage of the field groups (modification group 1-4) is as       
    follows:                                                                               
    -   Modification group 1:   Automatic modification with transaction
        MFAW                                                                               
    -   Modification group 2:   It contains 'LOO' for step loop fields 
    -   Modification group 3:   For modifications which depend on check
        tables or on other fixed information                                                                               
    -   Modification group 4:   is not used                            
    The FORM routine is called up for every field of a screen. If you require changes to be made, you must make them in this user exit.         
    This FORM routine is called up by the module FELDAUSWAHL.                 
    See the Screen Painter manual for further information on structuring      
    the interface.                                                                               
    USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT                                                     
    Use this user exit to fill user-specific statistics update tables.         
    The user exit is called up by the FORM routine BELEG-SICHERN before        
    the COMMIT command.                                                        
    Note                                                                       
    If a standard field is changed, the field r185d-dataloss is set to         
    X. The system queries this indicator at the beginning of the safety        
    routine. This is why this indicator must also be set during the            
    maintenance of user-specific tables that are also to be saved.                                                                               
    USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE                                             
    Use this user exit to make certain changes or checks immediately           
    before saving a document. It is the last possibility for changing or       
    checking a document before posting.                                        
    The user exit is carried out at the beginning of the FORM routine          
    BELEG_SICHERN.  
    I hope it will help you,
    Regards,
    Murali.

  • Change the sold to party

    Hi expert,
                     Can i change " Sold to party code"  after the creation of the sales order.
    Regard
    Shashi

    Hi
    After the sales order say order no 10000 saved for sold to party as X you cannot change the sold to party in VA02 transaction as Y for order no 10000
    That means if the order is created and saved then you cannot change the Sold to party for that order
    But while processing it self before saving in VA01 transaction itself it is possible to change the SP
    after the creation of the sales order.
    Not possible
    You cannot touch SP in VA02 transaction irrespective of subsequent document is there or not and the
    img settings said under partner determination for sales document types  say TA for standard order there also i dont think you can change the standard settings as the SP is mandatory and not modifiable
    You cannot  remove the tick in non modifiable for  SP for TA the standard sales doc type partner determination and make it
    modifiable

  • Account Group change from Bill to Party to Sold To Party

    Hi Friends,
    I cannot change the Account group from BP( Bill to party to Sp (sold to party which I need to do) from TC XD07, but giving error msg  "The planned change is not allowed as the following field groups would be masked by the new account group".
    Can anybody tell me how I can do this.
    Thanks N Regards,
    Siddhartha

    hello, friend.
    the reason for this is that the configuration/settings for the fields between the account groups 0001 (sold-to) and 0002 (ship-to) are not the same.
    you need to go to IMG > Log General > Business Partners > Customers, go to the account group 0002 and make the field settings the same with 0001 before you can change account groups for customers.
    just be sure to revert back to the default 0002 settings after account has been changed.
    regards.

    Hi,
    Why don't you try to make the Partner Function for Sold to Party as Modifible (Don't select Non Modifible) for the Sales Order Header in partner determination determintaion setting in customizing.
    You have to check with the partner determination procedure assigned to your sales order type and check accordingly.

  • Not able to change the value in 'sold to party' once disabled.

    Hi,
    I am validating the Business partner entered in the 'sold to party' field while creating a sales order in webclient UI.
    The error message pop up as expected but the field becomes disabled. I tried changing the field to editable by setting  rv_disabled = 'FALSE' in method GET_I_SOLDTO_NAME.
    Now the field is editable but it does not take the new value which i enter. it takes the old value only.
    How do i make the field to accept new values?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Shanthi.

    Hi Shanthi,
    Just check small config in your Partner determination profile if it helps you:
    Path: SPRO->CRM->Partner Processing->Define Partner Determination Procedure-
    Open you Partner determination Profile and go in details Sold-to-party partner and Mark Check box Changable to allow to make changes in partner.

  • Sold-to Party change

    Hello Friends,
    I recall that we can only change the sold-to party in a sales order if its copied with reference and the copy requirement uses different header customer.
    If I use a default sold to party for creating an order and before I safe the order will  the system  allow me to change the sold to party? If so what will not be redetermined :
    Prices
    Sales Area
    Customer material info record
    Plant and shipping point
    Availability and product allocation
    Regards
    Tom

    Dear 4 Minutes Tom
    In the list mentioned by you,
    ONLY CMIR will NOT be redetermined. (doesn't make sense)
    Hope I've answered your question to the exact point.

    Dear Gurus
    I want to change the sold to party in Sales Order created with reference to contract.
    When I create a Sales order with reference to contract the system copies all the partner functions- Sold to, Ship to, Bill to and Payer alongwith other data.
    However Sold to is marked as "Grey" and not changable, rest of the partners can be changed.
    There is no subsiquent document created with reference to this Sales Order.
    Please advice.
    Thanks a lot.

  • How to change sold to party description

    Hi all,
    I want to change sold to party description to customer in VA11/ VA21/VA01 (sold to party).
    Is there any possibility to change it?
    Please give me solution if it is possible............
    Thanks in advance
    Babu

    Dear Babu,
    There are two ways to change the description of Sold to party:
    1. XD02 / VD02 - Change the Customer description, which would be Master Data change & would effect all Documents.
    2. At time of Sales Order processing (which is what you want): VA01 / VA02 - Double click on Sold-to-party code & you will go to Header - Partner Data - Here once again click on Customer Code of required partner (Sold-to-Party in your case) & make the necessary changes.
    There changes would be applicable only for the particular Sales Order & the Master Data would not be changed.
    Hope this helps...
    Thanks,
