Does Business Partner have one Contract Account per premise ?

[murtuza_chhatariya]

Hi,

Business Master Data

a) Business partner

b) Contract Account

c) Contract

Technical Master Data

a)Connection Object

b)Premise

c)Installation.

Relations:

One Business Partner will have multiple Contract Accounts

One Contract Account will have multiple Contracts( ex: Gas contract or Electricity contract or water contract)

One Contract will have one installation

One Connection Object will have multiple Premises.

One Premise will have will have multiple installations

Question:

Is it like one Contract Account can link to only one premise? Or does it depend on Company data model?

One Business partner has 2 properties at 2 different premises. And 2 contract at these 2 premises.

To manage this situation, Does BP need 2 different CA or only CA can have these 2 contract with different premises?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Murtuza

Murtuza:

The cardinality is as follows:

1 BP : n CA

1 CA : n Contracts

1 Contract : 1 Installation

1 Connection object : n Premises

1 Premise : n Installations

So a Bp can have 1 or several contract accounts, and an account can have 1 or more contracts, and the contracts for an account can be for any service locations - they are not limited [standard system behavior] to a specific location. Client data model and business rules may determine differently.

Long time after this has been posted but this has been the best explanation I have found. Is this a feature just in larger SAP rather than Business one? Looking to have the contract accounts in business one but option seems to be missing.
