Editing Waste Management Business Partner Assignments

Use

The waste management business partners involved are automatically assigned to a waste approval via automatic partner assignment. This procedure describes how you manually assign additional waste management business partners and how you enter additional data for the waste management business partners assigned.

Procedure

Proceed as follows if you want to manually assign waste management business partners to a waste approval and enter additional data:

In the Waste Management menu, choose Master data ® Overview.

In the overview tree, double-click a waste management business partner that is assigned to the waste approval for which you want to change the partner assignment. If you do not know any of the assigned waste management business partners, proceed as follows:

Enter the waste approval for which you want to change the partner assignment on the Partner tab page or enter search criteria for the waste approval on the Waste approval tab page.
Choose .
Double-click the waste approval for which you want to change the partner assignment.

Choose the Waste Approval tab page.

Caution

Do not select any data records on the other tab pages before you choose the Waste Approval tab page. Otherwise a data filter is set, which may mean that some of the waste approvals are no longer displayed.

Select the waste approval for which you want to change the partner assignment and choose Partners.

Enter data as required. Note the following:

A waste management business partner can only be assigned once to a waste approval.

In order for you to be able to release a waste approval, you must have assigned at least one disposal document-relevant waste generator and waste disposer, in other words you must set the Disp. doc. rlvt indicator for at least one assigned waste generator and waste disposer. At least one assigned disposal document-relevant waste generator and waste disposer must also each have a transregional authority-assigned number.

The licenses and exceptions that you specify for an assigned waste management business partner are used for waste life-cycle analyses. If you only want to enter a license or exception for information purposes, specify it in the master data for the waste management business partner (see Assigning Licenses and Exceptions).

For the individual data records, in other words for the waste management business partners assigned, enter only the data that applies to the assigned waste management business partner in each case.

Example

If you want to enter the waste approval processing with an authority for a waste generator, proceed as follows:

When you access the overview tree, double-click the waste generator.
On the Waste Approval tab page, select the waste approval and choose Partners.

The waste generator is displayed in the first data record in the table.

Create a data record for the authority by entering the authority in the Partner field.
Enter the following data for this data record and save your entries:

In the Sent field, specify when the waste generator sent the waste approval documents to the authority.
In the Receipt confrmd field, specify when the waste generator received the confirmation of receipt of the waste approval documents from the authority.
In the Licensed field, specify when the waste generator received the confirmation or license for the waste approval.
In the Signatory and Reference fields, specify the authority’s signatory and reference.

If you want to specify purchasing documents or sales documents for an assigned waste management business partner, proceed as follows:

Select the waste management business partner and choose Agreements.
Enter data as required.

Note

The system automatically uses a purchasing document of category K ( contract), which you specified for a waste disposer, under certain conditions when you create a purchase order for the disposal from the SAP disposal processing component via the purchase order or clear function and at the same time specify the waste disposer (see Determination of a Valid Contract from the Master Data). However, the system does not check whether it is appropriate to assign a contract to a waste disposer here in the master data. You should therefore read the Notes on Assigning Contracts.

Save your entries.

Proceed as follows if you want to assign a waste management business partner to a waste approval, starting from the editing of this waste management business partner:

Choose the Waste Approval tab page.

Caution

Do not select any data records on the other tab pages before you choose the Waste Approval tab page unless you want to assign a disposal channel to the waste approval (see Creating Waste Approvals section in Editing Waste Approvals).

Enter the waste approval to which you want to assign the waste management business partner.

The waste approval data is displayed and the waste management business partner is assigned to the waste approval.

If required, enter additional data as described and save your entries.

Result

The addresses of the assigned waste management business partners are determined and displayed as follows:

If an address has been entered in the master data for the waste management business partner, this address is used and displayed.
If an integration object, but not an address, has been entered in the master data for the waste management business partner, the address of this integration object is used and displayed provided that an address has been entered for the integration object.

Caution

Data that you enter elsewhere for a waste management business partner after this partner has been assigned manually or automatically to a waste approval is not read during the assignment and is therefore not taken into account. This means that if you later enter an authority-assigned number or an address, for example, to a waste management business partner, it is not read during partner assignment. If you want data that has been entered later to be taken into account, you must delete the existing partner assignment and reassign the waste management business partner to the waste approval after you have entered the required data.
