Conversion of Communication Data 

Use

If you have created a business partner with address-independent communication data only and you then enter an address for this business partner, you have the option of converting the address-independent communication data into address-dependent communication data.

In the same way you can convert address-dependent communication data into address-independent communication data. This is necessary, for example, if several addresses have been entered for a business partner, and the mobile phone number of the business partner should apply to both addresses.

Prerequisites

If you want to convert address-independent communication data into address-dependent communication data, you need to have created at least one address and have made one or more entries in the address-independent communication data of the required business partner.

In order to convert address-dependent communication data into address-independent communication data, you need to have made one or more entries in the address-dependent communication data.

You can preset a country key so that you do not have to enter the country key for each entry that you make for the address-independent communication data. To do this, choose System ® User Profile ® Own Data in the menu, and enter the parameter ID LND on the tab page Parameters and a valid country key as a value.
