Role partners automatically copied to PO and contract from vendor master data

[former_member397513]

We have created some new business partner (SI MF) assigned to vendor master data and to be used in contracts and purchase orders. we need the new business partners to do NOT be copied in the new contracts/purchasing documents created. Is there a way to do that in customizing?

it is the opposite of note 1802012 - ME58, ME2*N - Partners are not determined / Saved to PO.
we need the business partner MF and SI to do NOT be copied in the documents.

Thanks

Try removing Higher Lvl indicator from Partner Schema. See this post https://answers.sap.com/questions/269053/partner-function-not-copied-from-vendor-master-int.html

If it doesn't work, then try removing those partner function from Partner determination procedure for Purchasing document.

Hi

I have not set Higher Lvl indicator in the partner schema.

Could you please help me understand where I can "try removing those partner function from Partner determination procedure for Purchasing document".

Thanks,

Stefania

Go to OLME-Partner Determination-Partner Settings in Purchasing Documents-Define Partner Schemas, then select Standard PO then double click Partner Functions in Procedure, then remove the partner function.

Hi,

I need to be able to add the new business partner manually in the contract. If I remove the partner function from the procedure then I cannot add manually.

We need the users to be able to add manually the business partner when necessary instead of having the same copied automaticcally from the vendor master data.

Thanks
