"Partner function Z9 cannot be used for partner procedures"

I cannot find the answer in google. please help.

hi,

please check the *TYPE OF PARTNER NUMBER* given to your partner function Z9 while defining.

Path is: Investment management-appropriate requests-master data-control data-define partner determination and partner functions-define partner functions.

if your partner function Z9 is for customer master, assign KU for the type of partner number.

then your problem will be solved.

pl inform if it is solved

Hi Anwar,

Please check the parner function-account group and partner determination procedure-account groups are assigned properly or not from

SD >> basic functions >> partner determination >> set up partner determination >> Set Up Partner Determination for Customer Master,sales doc. header etc. which type partner determination you want to maintain if you want to maintain them for customer.

In that screen, you need to maintain (Z9) to the partner procedure (ZAG) after doing Partner Determination Procedure Assignment and Account Groups - Function Assignment.

I hope these will solve your problem.

Hi Anwar,

How have you created your PF Z9.....have you copied it from SP and created it or created it manually.

Generally if you are creating a new PF , it is recommended that you copy it from any existing PF's like SP,SH,PY and BP.

If you copy and create the PF you will not be getting these errors.
