Hi Habib

Why are you interested to know all partner functions in SAP ?

There are many, more than 100 defined in standard system and you can create your new Partner Functions also.

All those partner functions are not used in SD.

In SD, we use Partner Functions like

SP (Sold-to-paty = who gives order)

SH (Ship-to-party = who receives the goods )

PY (Payer = who makes the payment )

BP (Bill-to-party = who receives the bill )

These 4 partner functions are MANDATORY partner functions.

If any of these partner function is missing then you can not complete a sales process, that is why they called mandatory partner functions.

Beside those,we use other partner functions like SE, AA, AW etc as per the requirement.

If you are looking for some other answer then , please revert back.

Hi,

there are basic 4 PF.

sold to party

Ship to party

bill to party

payer

When u create a sales order these 4 PF will u called up automatically.

u set up PF in spro. it is as follows

define partner function- define partner detremination proc- maintain partner function in that- assign partner detremination proc to account group if u wanted in customer master. - maintain account group & PF assignment.

if u want PF at sales doc header assign it to doc type

if u want PF at sales doc item assign it to item category
