Creating a Customer Master Record Centrally
Use
You wish to create a customer master record for both Financial Accounting (FI-AR) and Sales and Distribution (SD) at the same time.
Prerequisites
You must have installed and configured the Sales and Distribution (SD) application component.
Procedure
The initial screen for creating a customer appears.
Depending on the type of number assignment (internal or external) used for the account group, you also enter an account number.
- A company code for maintaining the FI data (accounting data)
- A sales area for maintaining sales data
When you create a customer master record for which the general data has already been created, the first screen for the company code data or the sales data appears.
The title of the tab page tells you which data area you are in.
Result
You have created a customer master record centrally. The system returns to the initial screen and displays a message to confirm that the master record has been created.
