Creating a Vendor Master Record for a Company Code 

Create a master record for accounting only as follows:

  1. From the Accounts Payable menu, choose Master records ® Create.
  2. The initial screen for creating the vendor appears.

  3. If you use external number assignment , enter the vendor's account number.
  4. If you use internal number assignment , the system assigns a number when you save the master data.

  5. Enter the company code and the account group and select ENTER .
  6. The first screen for entering master data appears.

  7. Enter your vendor data and then select ENTER to reach the next entry screen.
  8. Save your master data by choosing Vendor ® Save.

The system displays the initial screen again and a message that confirms that the data is saved.

If you have created master records in one company code and require exactly the same master records in another company code, you can distribute the newly created master records to other company codes via the following menu path in the Financial Accounting Configuration screen: Tools ® Data distribution ® Accounts payable ® Send.
