The following role categories are delivered by SAP:

Do not modify these settings.

You should modify these entries only if, for example, you

  • Want to use a completely different screen sequence
  • Need additional screen sequences for your own role categories
  • Have defined your own processes that should be programmed on role categories.

Attention

You should not, in particular, modify the role categories delivered by SAP because SAP programs may access them directly.

Activities

First make the following settings for the business partner role:

  1. Attributes of the Role
    1. Enter an alphanumeric, six-character key for the BP role.
    2. Enter a title as the short form and a description as the long form for the role's text.
    3. Set the Hide flag if the role should not appear in the dropdown list box of the role selection in the dialog.
  2. Attributes of the Role Category
    1. Select a role category if the role should serve as a basis for programming.
      2. Several roles can be assigned to a role category. The assigned roles are displayed in the overview. You can navigate to the respective role by double clicking.
    2. Determine which role should be assigned as the standard role.
      3. The indicator is set automatically when a new role is created, provided the role category in question has not already had other roles assigned to it.
      The indicator ensures that only one role can be read when the role category is used as a basis for programming.

      Assigning a role category allows you to ensure that the role is updated in the table for the roles (BUT100).

  3. Settings for the Interface Control
    1. Assign a BP view.
      2. Define the BP view in the area menu of the Business Partner in the SAP Easy Access Menu under Business Partner -> Control -> Divisibility -> BP View (transaction BUSD).
      If a BP view is not assigned, the settings for the BP view 000000 (General BP) are used in the dialog.
    2. Enter the position in which the role should appear in the dropdown box of the role selection in the dialog.
      3. If you do not make an entry for the roles, they are sorted in alphabetical order.
  4. Save the data.

Define your own role categories, if necessary:

  1. Enter a six-character key for the role category in the customer namespace (Y* und ZÜ*).
  2. Enter a title as the short form and a description as the long form for the text of the role category.
  3. Enter a differentiation type (required entry).
  4. Specify for which business partner categories the role category can apply.
  5. Assign a business transaction to the role category, if necessary, and establish the influence on the transaction.
