Work center partner function

hei all,
if you see in partner function configuration, there's partner type A (work center) and partner function PA (work center).
i want to use it in sales order, but it couldn't. there's an error said
"Partner type PA is not permitted
Message no. VPD007"
can anyone explain about this error?
best regard,
Hendry

How to work with Partner Function Categ. - Person Responsible vs. Employee

Hi together,
I have a question regarding partner processing (we are using Web Client UI):
Our customers are served by one Sales Rep. who is travelling and additionaly by an Account Manager who is working inhouse (he is assigned to & supporting up to 5 sales reps). In our R/3 System we are using two different z-(customer)partner roles - let's say SR and AM. When we create new customers and sales documents the AM is determined out of the assignment to the SR (SR has to be typed in by user). So the Sales Rep is the leading employee in the relationship to the customer, while the AM is the SAP power-user.
How should I use these Roles in CRM? Both employees have to be assigned to our Customer-BUPAs and to every sales document.
The first thought was using the CRM-partner-function 0012 Sales Rep.(category employee) for the SR and 0014 Employee Resp. (category person responsible) for AM.
My problem is that I don't know what the difference between the two partner function categories person responsible(0008) and employee(0005) is.
Because the SalesRep is the leading employee I think it would be better to use him as the responsible person? Another point is that the responsible person is available on all the Web Client Views on the first detail block and the other employees are only visible in the "parties involved" block. But the SalesRep doesn't use the system very often.
What do you think is the best way?
Best Regards
Stefan

Hi,
I think it makes logical sense to assign SR as employee responsible.

how can i solve this exception and continue to complete my work?

Hi,
I fear that it is not possible to customize the Runtime WorkCenter. This link will always be there. However, it is possible for you to implement your own work center by using the GP Public API.
Administrator, Owner and Overseer are runtime concepts and cannot apply for browsing the Gallery. It is possible to define DT Permissions for each object. To do this, open a process/block/action and click on the tab "Permissions". There you can search for Role, Group or User and grant them special rights.
For more information, you can have a look at <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/8e/7f55429c0fab53e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm">Granting for permissions for GP Objects on help.sap.com</a>
Hope this helps.

How can I relate an equipment with the PP Work center & functional location

Hi,
I'm trying to relate equipments with their PP work centers (field ITOBATTR-ARBPL listed in the Location tab of the equipment) and the functional location (field ITOB-TPLNR listed in the Structure tab of the equipment) through SQVI.
The workcenter is in a structure and the functional location relation in table ITOB gives me thousands of results with different functional locations per equipment so I can't tell which one is the propper one.
Additionally I would like to filter the equipments flagged for deletion, but I also can't find the field of thet flag).
In resume I need to create a query that gives me all equipments not flagged for deletion with their corresponding PP Work center and functional location.
Thanks in advance
JV

Please check table EQUZ or view V_EQUI.
In table EQUZ (GEWRK is the work center object number ) -> Use this go to table CRHD and find ARBPL for the correct time slot.
For fucntional location in EQUZ (ILOAN is the location assignment ) -> go to table ILOA with the ILOAN and fetch TPLNR.
Please ensure you fetch records which are currently valid from EQUZ (Use the valid to date field compare . Valid to date must be greater than or equal to current date).

Partner Functions

Dear All,
Iam Using the partner function in Customer master as VE=Sales Employee.
I have logged in Chinese and went to XD02 then In the Partners it is Showing PE instead of VE and It is saying Partner VE is not exists in TPAR.
But Where in the case of English it is fine and comming VE only.
I went to SE16 and seen TPAR(With English Log in), there i have found the entry and where PARVW=VE and NRAPT=PE,
Again I loged in Chinese and went to SE16 there i found TWO Entries as mentioed below.
1.PARVW=VE and NRAPT=PE then i came back again I have Given Input as where PARVW=PE and seen the Output, there it is showing PARVW=AF and NRAPT=AP.
I'm facing this problem only for Customer master and Sales Order is fine.
Please Guide me on the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Vinay

hello, friend.
i presume you are looking for VE or PE which is sales personnel?
in IMG, partner determination, try going to the Partners Conversion and see if there is an equivalent entry for VE. if this does not help, post again.
this interests me because i have experienced many strange things working with partner functions in SAP. i guess this is another one of those.

Benefits of using vendor partner function

Hello Experts:
I understand the general use of vendor partner function. But what are the benefits of using vendor partner function? Is it for ease of reporting? Is there a functionality down the line that will not be possible if a vendor partner function is not used?
The reasoning for this question is, I am at a client that has the general association of vendor and remit to addresses. However, they also have a scenario where they have one main vendor, but there are 30+ remit to addresses. These remit to addresses are dependent on the plant that placed the order. As an example, the vendor is AT&T, but the plant that uses the service in Caifornia sends the check to a remit to address in Calif. The plant in Arizona, sends their check to another AT&T remit to address in AZ.
My current solution is, for the client to create the partner function that are more straight forward, one main vendor and one remit to address. As for the vendors that have multiple remit to addresses, i am opting out not to create the partner function. Which is why I am asking if there is an issue not using vendor partner function.
Thanks in advance for your help!!

It is certainly possible to work without partner functions in SAP.
It is almost impossible to work without partner functions in SAP if you do business with global players and need some comfort for your processes.
It is impossible to work without partner functions if oyu have to do Intrastat reporting with SAP and your goods supplier is located in a different EU country than your vendor.
In your special case with AT&T without partner functions, you would enter the invoice to your main vendor, the payment run then creates a cheque to your main vendor (and you then use Microsoft word to create a lable with the remit to address that you stick over the SAP printed address on the cheque ..... how does Finance department know that it has to create this lable?.....how will you be able to trace who got the cheque? ..........this is not a good practice)
Especially in this case the partner funtions gives the real benefit.
partner funtions are not for ease of reporting, as You cannot run analyses for any of the other partner roles supplied in the standard system.
if you use invoicing party, then the invoicing partyu2019s account will be charged instead of the vendoru2019s.

Parties involved work center and partner functions in SAP WEBUI

Dear Experts,
Here is the situation
I have sales rep, quote admin1, quote admin2 and quote admin3 positions in my org model. Each level has approval process. All of these three types of users will create quotes directly without a previous document/follow-up document.
When a sales rep or anybody other than quote admin logon to create quote, parties involved <> quote admin should be admin1. When admin 1 logon, it should default to admin1. Admin 2 logs in only after admin1 so, it should display admin1 and admin2. When admin 3 logson, it should show admin1, 2 and three. They need to be able to see howmany quote admins already there in the quote. How can I get this?? Please help me..

Hi Sri,
You can use Partner Determination Procedure for the first time to create a Quotation automatically which will be triggered by the system. For the next time, based on your requirement you can probably need to use something else which will trigger the partner determination and will select the partner function and the business partner. You can check the badi - COM_PARTNER_BADI which is used for the Partner Procedure Determination.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Samantak.

Partner function not working when creating PO with ref to PReq

Partner function is not working when creating a Purchase Order with ref to a Purchase Requistion, Partner functions maintained in the vendor master are VN, OA & PI.
But OA & PI are not appearing in the PO header partner tab when created with ref to PR.
however it works when i create the PO directly ( without the PR ref )
I am using the same material & Plant for both manual PO & PR to PO.
Any idea what could be wrong .
I have maintained the settings for schema groups for vendor master & purchasing doc in the partner determination.
Thanks
Dkmurthy

Hi,
I have also an issue that seems similar to one you are discussing.
When we use ME59N and create a PO with ref. from a PR (created from a sales order), the message determination works well, it reads the condition set in MN04 (condition records for messages), and creates a message (with output type for EDI , medium: 6, and partner function LS: Logical system). Message is created and idoc is sent.
When we try with ME21N, ME21 and we create the PO with ref. to the same PR, either by entering manually the PR in the document overview of ME21N or by selecting the PR (without entering the PR number), i.e with date, the message is not created in the PO.
Company code is assigned to purchase organization, and so is purchase organization to plant.
Any idea why there is no automatic message determination in the case of the transaction: ME21N
Note: If I try ME21N, and enter the output type and partner, manually, I receive a warning message
VN006 (Partner XXXX does not exist for partner function LS). If I accept this warning message, then message is saved- idoc is sent. However I can not overcome the warning message, if it plays any role, because I can not assign partner function LS to the vendor.Then I receive message CZ 327 (Can not use this partner role).
Any input is wellcome.

Function Module to get a work center's capacity requirements (load) within a given period

Hi all experts,
Currently I’m doing a capacity summary report similar to CM01, but with a summarized capacity availability and loading for a period.
Selection Parameters: Work center range from and to, Period from and to
List Format: Work Center, Avail Capacity, Loaded Capacity, Free Capacity, Load %
I have found a standard function module (FM) to get work center's available capacity for a period, but still facing the challenge to find a FM to get a work center’s capacity requirements (load) in a period.
I have read through all the related threads from the web, and tested the recommended FMs, but still cannot get a right result.
Please help to provide some leads for a FM or the logic.
Best Regards
Philip

Hello Philip
The following function modules should be useful:
   - CY_PRIMARY_SELECTION            - Function module for selection of orders for the work center
   - CY_SECONDARY_SELECTION          - Check for additional criteria
   - CR_CAPACITY_AVAILABLE_PERIODS   - Reads the available capacity from work center
   - HR_PERSON_READ_TIME_INFO        - Reads the available capacity from person (modification)
   - CY_GET_PART_CAPACITY            - used only for the first period to read backlog
   - CY_LOAD_DISTRIBUTION            - Distribution key
Please observe that these are simple function modules, not BAPIs, That means, they were developed to be used on the SAP internal programs and they are not supported by SAP when used in custom programs.

Partner functions for FV11 conditions are not working for MIRO

Hi,
We have a business process wherein PO Ordering vendor and invoicing vendor are different.
We have defined FV11 tax conditions ( VAT and Excise)for PO vendor .
We have not defined FV11 tax conditions ( VAT and Excise) for Invoicing vendor.
So while we are doing MIRO for such PO, we are getting an error that VAT tax code say G1 is not maintained in TAXXINN proceedure.
When we defined TAX conditions for Invoicing vendor also , system allowed MIRO for such PO.
We are using TAXINN proceedure.
Guide me whether :
1. Definining VAT and Excise conditions for Invoicing vendor is a must ..?
OR
2. We can do some configuration in Partner functions sothat whatever Tax conditions defined for PO vendor will be defaulted and can be used sothat at the time of MIRO there will not any error for VAT and Excise conditions defined only in PO.
Thanks in advance !
Thanks & Regds,
Kasi.

Hi Kishore,
Thanks a lot for quick response .
As you said we have defined FV condition records were defined to key combination specific to Vendor. Given the scenario, can we change partner functions from PI or VN or other related , will System allow defualt these conditions to invoicing partner..? Iam not very much sure how partner functions work..? can please throw some light on this or guide me a link where can I get information on partner functions?
ALternatively , instead of defining FV11conditions for key combination with vendor, if we define FV 11 conditions for other combination such as at material group level- will it work?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regds,
Kasi.

JoinFieldValue function is not working for 'Partner'

Hi All,
I'm trying to get value from Partner in workflow, but there is an error message mentioned "<Partner>" is invalid, and then I'm looking for the online help, I found there is no referred record type for 'Partner', is JoinFieldValue function not working for 'Partner'?
Does anyone know about it?
Thanks in advance

Using the Copy function link on a new Web Link Filed, you can pass parameters from one Object to another.
1 - hit the "Copy" button on a CO Detail Page and grab the URL (This is the Destination Object, i'e I will pass information from Contact (Source) to this CO (Destination))
Ex: https://secure-rmsomxxxx.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/CustomObject5.New?CustomObject5.NewForm.Id=XXXXXXX&OMRET1=CustomObject5.Detail%3fOMTGT%3dCustomObject5.Detail%26OMTHD%3dCustomObject5DetailNav%26CustomObject5.Detail.Id%3dXXXXXXX%26ocTitleField%3dName%26ocTitle%3dXXXXXXXXX%26ocEdit%3dY&OMTGT=CustomObject5.NewForm&OMTHD=CustomObject5PreCopyNav&OMRET0=CustomObject5.HomePage&OCTYPE=
You would need only a small part from the above:
https://secure-rmsomxxxx.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/CustomObject5.New?CustomObject5.NewForm.[Field you want to Copy]
2 - Create a Weblink field on Contact and Expose it on the layout your role can see.
3 - In the Weblink URL use the below
https://secure-rmsomxxxx.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/CustomObject5.New?CustomObject5.NewForm.Description=%%%First_Name%%%
Save your changes and you're done! you can now see that when you click the link you can pass the Contact First Name in the CO.
Good Luck!

I need a FM that export the requirement capacity of a Work center.

an example for my needs is as followed:
Function: CAPACITY_REQUIREMENT_FOR_WORK_CENTER

                        1. Work Center = MG1602
