Function documentationVendor Fund Master Data

 

The vendor fund master data can be used to manage vendor fund information, such as a discount offered on products by a vendor to a retailer.

Demand Data Foundation (DDF) uses an inbound interface (function module/DMF/OPIF_VENDOR_FUND_INBOUND) to receive the vendor fund master data through a Remote Function Call (RFC). For more information, see the function module documentation (transaction SE37).

Integration

DDF can receive the vendor fund data from an SAP ERP application or a non-SAP application. For more information, see Integration Information.

Note that the received data cannot be changed in DDF; it must be changed in the source system and reimported to DDF.
