Business Partner = User

Hello,

At the moment I try to understand the need of a business partner. Is there somewhere documentation about the general use of business partner?

In addition I found a lot of documentation where an automatic creation of business partners is mentioned. But without a clear “HowTo”.

Best Practice:

Is it wise to create for each Solution Manager User a Business Partner with the same ID as the user? Is there a procedure available to create a business partner at the same time as a user is created? Maybe in combination with the central user management in a complete sap framework?
