Dear SAP-cracks,
we are going to switch to business partner to pepare the system for S/4 HANA brown field conversion. We just loved the multiple adresses function in business partner and planned to consolidate customers into one business partner/customer since it was once only created because of different delivery and billing adresses (e.g.). Actually it is one legal entiy with the same tax id.
Now. I encounter the major problem, that these multiple adresses do not make any sense since I cant find out how to use these in my transaction like send order etc.
I found the very sad SAP Note 2528520 wich refers to Sales. Is this the most actual information? Can I use multiple adresses for MM transactions? How can I achive this?
This is what I set in our sandbox system so far. But I just cant find out, what to do now? How do i link my SAP tranaction like "create order" to the BP transaction "BBP000 - Send Order"?
I would really appreciate your help. Maybe I'm just stupid here and I just need one small hint. I really hope to solve this probleme because otherwise I just dont understand the whole adress determination tree for business partner. It wouldn't make any sense.
Thanx in advance,
regards,
Cora
Request clarification before answering.
Hi Sven,
at the end I learned, that using multiple adresses for one business partner is a CRM relic. For all logistic transactions such as creating an order the system still works with the "old" vendor objects/tables. So your stuck with the partner role logic ending up with multiple vendors (= multiple BPs).
As I mentioned within the other issue SAP promised to revise the whole business partner adress handling by the end of 2021. I cant wait to experience a solution to manage different locations of one legal entity withing one business partner. Obviously we have to be patient. 🙂
Don't hesitate and email me if you are interested in discussing some questions with me. Regards, Cora
