PO partner function

[Former Member]

Dear All,

Can someone so kind to help me in the below issue.

We have a vendor having partner function 'VN - vendor, GS- Goods Supplier, IP- invoicing Party & different vendor are maintained for each partner function. For example:

For a vendor master - 100

VN - 100

GS - 200

IP - 300

The above partner are appearing in the PO partner Tab while creating a PO against vendor -100.

However while creating invoice, the invoice is generated aginst 100, not aginst 300.Idle the invoice should be generated against the invoicing party that is aginst 300.

Please note I have maintained all the customization for partner function i.e partner schema etc.

Is there any other setting is need to set so that invoice will created aginst the invoice party if a vendor vendor have partner function 'invoice party' exist.

your input will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi,

The procedure for setting partner functions:

Step 1

Vendor Account Group

IMG->LOGISTICS GENERAL->BUSINESS PARTNER->VENDOR->CONTROL ->DEFINE

ACCOUNT GROUPS AND FIELD SELECTION

Step 2

Defining Partner Schemas

IMG->MATERIALS MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER -> DETERMINATION -

>PARNER SETTINGS IN VENDOR MASTER RECORD

->DEFINE PARTNER SCHEMAS

Step 3

Assign Partner Schema

IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER DETERMINATION->PARTNER

SETTINGS IN VENDOR MASTER RECORD->DEFINE PARTNER SCHEMA

„« THEN ASSIGN PARTNER SCHEMA

Step 4

Define Permissible Partner Role Per Account Group

IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER DETERMINATION -

>PARTNER ROLES ->DEFINE PERMISSION PARTNER ROLES

If you want a partner schema for your own document type then define your partner schema and assign to document type using the below mentioned path.

IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER ->DETERMINATION -

>PARTNER SETTINGS IN PURCHASING DOCUMENTS ->DEFINE PERMISSION

PARTNER SCHEMAS

And then

ASSIGN PARTNER SCHEMAS TO DOCUMENT TYPE

Once you have this configuration then you change your vendor in easy access menu (XK02-select partner function) define the partner roles.

Follow the above steps for setting up the Partner function, If you struck up with any problem, plz revert back.

If this solves your problem, plz reward.

Dear Raju,

As mentioned in my first mail, I have already configured done the above step. By problem is that, invoice is not creating against invoice pary. It created with the main vendor.

the invoice should post against the invocie presented partner.

If that is not the case, then check if the partner was in the PO right from the beginning or if it was entered later.

If later, check if the invoice was posted prior to the date the partner was added.

Are you sure that nobody changed the vendor number manually while doing MIRO?
