Use

In the standard system the business partner is automatically copied from the customer master when creating sales documents and sales activities. Here the system takes the sold-to party from the customer master.

If you wish that the business partners are not taken from the sold-to party master record but that another partner function is taken from the customer master record, you can set this up in Customizing.

Activities

You can fmake these settings in the implementation guide (IMG) for sales and distribution under Basic functions ® Partner Determination ® Define and assign partner determination procedures. There you will further information in the documentation.

Example

In the different regions you work together with fixed vendors. Therefore you want the forwarding agent in the sales document to be determined in relation to the ship-to party and not the sold-to party.

Ensure in Customizing first of all that the ship-to party is determined from the sold-to party master record. Then the system goes into the ship-to party master record to determine the forwarding agent.
