Vendor Number not coming in partner functions in vendor master

Hi,
I am facing a peculiar issue with the vendor master.
I am creating a vendor having a account group z001 to which the number range is assigned as internal (only) and in the Partner Schema the vendor VN is defined as mandatory and checked for higher level.
When entering the data on reaching the partner function tab the first line item where we enter ahve the vendor details of VN it is coming blank in the non-editable mode where we have the vendor number cell. I noticed as I number range is internal till the vendor is saved the number is not assigned so in the partner tab in the first line item the number is blank.
On saving and going back to vendor in change mode I am finding the partner VN line item in non-editable mode and the vendor number is blank and I am not able to enter the number also.
How to overcome this issue.
Please guide me..
Thanks,
Vengal Rao.

Hi Diwakar,
Thanks for the response. As it is mandatory it is coming , but as it is defined as internal number, the number is assigned to vendor after saving only.
So if I got back to same vendor and see what is the partner no appearing in the first row, I see the number as blank, when I try to add the same number in change mode it is not allowing as the realted line ie first line is in non-editable mode. Here VN , and description VENDOR is coming but number not coming, and I am not able to add the number also.
This is my issue.
Thanks,
Vengal Rao.

Hi,
During defining the partner Schema, please follow the process:
a.Create partner Schema
b.After creation of partner Schema, select your partner Schema and click u201Cpartner roles in schemau201D and you will have next screen
Now for Partner function like VN,OA,PI and GS as you required and select the check box of mandatory
and save.
Now try creating Vendor and you will have Partner function like VN,OA,PI and GS in vendor master.
Note: The following configuration steps for Vendor master are:
1. Create Vendor Account Group.OBD3
2. Maintain Number Ranges from Vendor account Group:XKN1,
3.Assignment of Number ranges to Account Group,OBAS
4.Partner Function: SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination-> partner roles->Permissible partner role sper account group

SAP Vendor Number and MDG Business Partner mapping table name

Hello Expert,
We are using MDG for Materials and Suppliers, while using we found some times error on vendore number and business partner mis-matching.
Could you please tell me which table I should check where I can see ECC vendor number with MDG business partner number.
It will help us to validate the wrong mis-matched one to correct in one go.
Regards,
Vijay Mittal

Hello Vijay,
You can find the Vendors in table LFA1. Your Business Partners are in table BUT000.
The number ranges transactions are as follows: Vendors - XKN1, Business Parners - BUCF
You should check the NR Status and make sure your value is greater than the last created LFA1 record, so your PPO does not fail (that's in case you're going the direction BP -> Vendor and don't have the "Same flag" active in view V_TBC001). If you are trying to synch up from Vendor to BP, you'll have to check the view CVIV_VEND_TO_BP1 instead.
Hope that helps,
Boris

Partner function in vendor sub-range

in vendor master data, we can maintain different partner function for each sub-range, but if to create PO, the partner is at header leavel, and vendor sub-range is at item level, then how the system copy partner in sub-range to PO? in header level, it always using partner function from main vendor. if the sub-range partner function can not copied to PO, then what this partner function used for?

make sure you have the small box "higher level " checked in customizing of partner determination.

Partner Function in Vendor master

Hi,
I want to know what is partner functions in Vendor master , what configuration settings required for it and is it necessary to maintain what can be the problem or why it use .
regards,
zafar

Hi Zafar,
Basically Vendor partner functions allowed you to define the rights and responsibilities of business partner in a business transaction. The R/3 standard partner functions are :
AZ     Alternative payee
OA     Ordering address
VN     Vendor
CR     Carrier
PI     Invoice presented by
CA     Contract address
GS     Goods supplier
DP     Delivering site
Accordingly the vendor is first the ordering address, then the supplier of good and after that Invoicing party and finally the Payee. You can determine which of the partner roles are optional and which are mandatory in the customization. If no roles have been maintained, the data of the vendor role applies
Now the Vendor partner function will work after few Setting in Customization :
1) Maintain seprate vendor master record for each partner
2) Activate partner function by ASsign Partner Schema to Account Groups
SPRO ; Material Management > Purchasing > partner Determination > partner Settings in Vendor Master REcord > here choose and account Group to active partner Function and from Field PS EKORG Select L1
3)Define Permissible Partner Roles Per Account Group
In this step, you can specify for each account group of the vendor which roles the vendor may assume.
I.e. you can specify that certain vendors may only serve as an ordering address, not as an invoicing party.
Maintain Partner roles, which is to be used in Account Group
GS - DIMP
PI-DIMP
OA-DIMP
4) Maintain partner function - Now in the Vendor master record you can maintain Vendor partner function .
or can assign partner at the Time of PO Creation ME21n, When GR will be done you can See partner Details.

Proposal of partner function and related master record in sales order

Hi Gurus,
As we know, a partner determination procedure is used to propose partner functions and the master data tied to them in the sales order.
I need to confirm the following if understanding is correct:
1. 1st a customer master record is entered with all the partner functions, say, SP SH PY BP and 9E (PE partner type).
The respective master record values like who is the SP SH PY BP and 9E are specified in the partner function tab also.
This customer master is assigned to a account group.
2. a Partner determination procedure is created and the same partner functions assigned to it.
Next, this procedure is assigned to the account group.
3. When I create an order for this customer, the sales order's partner function tab should automatically be populated with the partner functions and the respective master data value as defined in the customer master record.
Questions:
1. What if the partner determination procedure was not defined with 9E Partner function but the customer master record is?
2. What if the customer master record was not defined with 9E but the partner procedure is?
3. Why the partner procedure need to define the partner functions if its assigned to account group to which the customer master is assigned to already?
4. If the partner function 9E is not proposed in the sales order, can user manually enter this partner function and the respective master record value in the sales order partner function tab?
Have a great day!
regards
M Russo

Hi,
1. What if the partner determination procedure was not defined with 9E Partner function but the customer master record is?
If the partner determination procedure is not defiend you can not maintain same in customer master the system will through you error message PE is missing.
2. What if the customer master record was not defined with 9E but the partner procedure is?
It depends how you want propose the same,
According the function it behaves, you can make this field is mandatory if you want the same is to customer master
3. Why the partner procedure need to define the partner functions if its assigned to account group to which the customer master is assigned to already?
normally the standard partner procedure follows as it is SP SH BL PY Still if you want add some other partners(agent,employee,contact person...etc.) you can define the same in the procedure.
4. If the partner function 9E is not proposed in the sales order, can user manually enter this partner function and the respective master record value in the sales order partner function tab?
As you can refer the second point if you set as optional you can enter the same in customer master partner function tab.
Hope this can helps,
Thanks and Best Regards,

Partner Number for Partner function in Vendor master definition

Dear Gurus,
I need to define a new vendor through Tcode: Xk01 / Mk01, but while defining particular screen know an partner functions, in this its asking partner number in lookup where no data ia avalibale to select and subsequently not able to save the vendor.
Please help.
Regards,
Prashanth Pai

Hi,
Before vendor creation, you have following configuration steps:
1. Create Vendor Account Group.OBD3
2. Maintain Number Ranges from Vendor account Group:XKN1,
3.Assignment of Number ranges to Account Group,OBAS
4.Partner Function: SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination-> partner roles->Permissible partner role sper account group
5.Partner Schema:
SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Define partner Schema
6.Assgin partner schema to accont Group
SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Assgin partner schema to account Group.
& then after above steps, you can create vendor with XK01 t.code by entering company Code,Vendor account group and purchase organisation.
Note:what is partner role:Generally during in your business transaction process we are specifying the roles involved by vendor i.e..... vendor act as a Goods Suplier, Ordering Address, Invoice Processing. Here all these functional activities by vendor we termed as partner functions (GS,IP, OA) in partner determination Process. SAP has standard Partner role and its 2 characters.
Example: A company supplying goods/material having plant in Hyderabad, south India branch office is in bangalore and head office is in Delhi.So hyderabad plant is your"GS",banglaore office is your"OA" and Delhi office is "IP"where you pay to Vendor. for the procurred material/goods.

Partner functions of vendors not appearing in PO (EC scenario)

Hi
We are using SRM4.0 extended classic scenario, The vendor master in R/3 has been maintined with all the required partners like VN, PI, OP,GS. But when we create a PO in SRM and after its replication to R/3 in ME23n header data the PO doesnt not show other partner details. Its showing only the vendor 'VN'. But i could observe for some POs its dispalying both VN and PI.
Request somebody can clarify under what situations this can happen and what needs to be done so as to get the partner details in PO.
Thanks & Regards
Kiran

Hi. We have had an couple of issues that could be similar.
Look at notes 879361 & 904881, they fixed 1 of the problems on our SRM 4 issue.
If those do not help, another thing it could be is down to your country.
Are you implementing in India? I think SRM calls a different BAPI for India than most countries. Something to do with tax juristiction or something. If you ask SAP via a customer message they might be able to help you.

Dave.

Classic Scenario PO has multiple OA Partner Functions for Vendor

Hi,
I have a 'design' issue. My R/3 Vendor has many OA Partner Functions for the different Branches they have and the PO needs to be Faxed to the OA Partner Function number, but the PO needs to be created against the VN Partner Function.
So, how do i do this in SRM? I was going to have a seperate Catalog link for each OA Partner function, but this is not creating the R/3 PO with VN Partner Function of the 'core' Vendor number.
Does anyone have any advice for this?
regards Adam
Using SRM 5.0 (Server 5.5) SP 8 and R/3 4.6C in Classic Scenario - my catalogs are external vendor.
