Partner not appearing in CMR Partner Function tab

Hi,

When i create a CMR, i get the SP, SH, BP, Payer by default as Partner Functions. I want to add Vendor in this default. Vendor should also come on its own like the others do.

In the Partner Determination:

Partner Detrn Proced AG is defined

AG has VN as Partner Function in it. I have ticked VN as Mandatory

AG is assigned to account group 0001 (SP)

Partner Function VN is assigned to Partner type LI

Partner Function VN is assigned to Account Group 0001 (SP)

VN is maintained in VOPA

All the above has been done, still when i create a new SP, i dont see "Vendor" with the others which are SP, SH, BP, PY. Is there a certain sequence in which its to be done?

Please let me know your ideas and suggestions.

SAP,

Partner Function VN is assigned to Account Group 0001 (SP)

This is the key setting! (for partner to populate automatically in the cmr)

Make VN mandatory in the partner procedure AG. Then create a new CMR, check what is the error message. That might give you some clue.

Also, probably the number range could be an issue. Vendor assigned to....Account gr and the account group has a number range (not so sure about this, check internet)

I tested in XD02, by including a VN (different from the CMR #) and I could save the CMR with the vendor number.

Hi TW

For the Partner Function VN (Vendor) to work properly, a vendor must exist in the system. I was wrong here. I was expecting the Vendor to take the same number as the other PFs do.

Is it cause of the Partner type? As the other PFs are of the Partner Type KU!! only this is LI !!

Thanks for your help. Marked your answer as one, too.

Closing the thread.
