Entering Different Partners at Item Level

Use

The following example of a customer order shows how you can name a partner at item level, that is different from the partner in the document header.

Customer 101 is generally the sold-to party as well as the ship-to party. He would only like the delivery to go directly to warehouse L1 outside of the town for materials with a specific volume .

Customer 101 divides an order with two items: The first item should be delivered to customer 101, the second position must be delivered to L1 because of its size.

Prerequisites

You have planned the partner function ship-to party in the partner determination procedure in Customizing for sales document items and have defined this as changeable.

Procedures

Create a customer sales order as usual.

The system copies the partner from the customer master into the document header and then from the document header into the items.

Select the item, that should receive a deviating partner.

Choose Goto ® Item ® Partners.

The partner screen for the item appears. Here you can overwrite the changeable partner functions.
