vendor

[Former Member]

Hi,

i have one query like this.

Vendor name is taken from lfa1-name1.so,If vendor is OTA(one time vendor) then override that lfa1-name1 with BSEC-NAME1.

However vendor is one time vendor based on account group LFA1-KTOKK = 'OTBD' .

What is one time vendor means that?

any one can help me.

HI Kan,

Please go through the following,

Your company does business with some business partners for a long time. For example, you have special price agreements with long-term customers and their deliveries get preferential treatment. At the end of the fiscal year, you can honor the loyalty of these customers with rebate payments. In other cases, you have only one contact with a business partner. For example, you order merchandise from a different vendor once, because your preferred vendor cannot deliver. You can therefore distinguish between:

1.Customers and vendors

You create a master record and assign partner functions for each business partner.

2.One-time customers and one-time vendors

Business partners who have a business transaction with you only once are called one-time customers and one-time vendors. You do not have to create a master record for one-time customers or one-time vendors because you do not need this master record after the business transaction, and it uses space. You create collective master records for one-time customers and one-time vendors.

Hope this will clear your question.
