Mixed Vendor and Customer

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

I have a scenario within a local authority whereby a social services client e.g. a care home individual is both a source of expense and income i.e. the council may pay a care home on behalf of this individual but the council also receives a client contribution (from their family) towards this care home expense.

My question, how do we set up these vendors where multiple such individuals live in the same carehome and is paid for by the council. Secondly, how do we set up the account of these individuals whereby we can check both the expenses incurred on their behalf as well as the income received on their behalf?

Your help is much appreciated. Happy to assign points.

Thanks,

Akhtar

Hello Akhtar - there are no points any more; I recommend searching. This also depends which version you are using.

Newer is using business partners - see the SAP Help https://help.sap.com/doc/2425c55368511d4be10000000a174cb4/3.6/en-US/771dc753b1081d4be10000000a174cb4...

Thanks, this is very useful. The only question this did not resolve is can we have multiple vendors set linked up to a customer and vice versa. I presume that is the case?
