Use
In this IMG activity, you change the settings of the business partner overview (BP overview). This allows you to adapt the standard pre-configured business partner overview to your requirements.
You can assign a configuration of the BP overview to individual users by defining an entry in user maintenance for the parameter COV_CFG . If you want to assign a configuration to all users, do not define any user-specific settings, set the standard indicator for this configuration. If no configuration has been defined in the user profile and none has been defined as the standard, the BP overview pre-configured by SAP is automatically displayed.
You can adjust the following settings for the business partner overview:
Header Data for Business Partner, Contract Account and Contract Object
Additional information on the master record selected is display in the master data screen area of the BP overview. You can enter the business partner in the top line of this subscreen and the system adjusts the information in the following three lines depending on the master record selected. If you double click on the key or name of a master record within the tree structure of the navigation area, you switch from the information on the business partner to the information on the contract account or contract object assigned to it.
If you want information on the business partner, contract account, or contract object different to that in the standard SAP display, you have to create a configuration with your own programs and subscreens. The subscreen has space for three lines each with 80 characters. In your own programs, you have to call up function module FMCA_COV_SUBSCR_DATA_GET for event PBO in order to enter the business partner, contract account and contract object data.
Settings for Account Balance Display
You can define your own specific settings per configuration in the fields List Type and Sort Variant provided that you want to define an account balance display different to the standard. If you do not make an entry in the field List Type, the settings delivered by SAP are used. Entries in the field Sort Variant are optional. You define customer-specific list types and sort variants in Customizing for the account balance display under Define List Types and Maintain Sort Variant.
Sequence of Tab Pages
Seven tab pages are available, you can define the order under Tab. Note that a position must be defined for all tab pages.
A tab page is automatically hidden in the BP overview if there are no database entries. You can also define in Customizing that individual tab pages are always hidden. The database entries are not read for the transaction data of these hidden tab pages. This can have a positive effect on the performance of the BP overview. SAP therefore recommends that you hide transaction data that is not required.
Additional Functions of the Business Partner Overview
You can navigate to the maintenance functions from the BP overview. These transaction calls are displayed as additional functions in the BP overview. Up to 20 additional functions are supported. The first seven are available as pushbuttons in the application toolbar. All other additional functions can be executed in the menu under Environment -> Other Functions.
Under List of Additional Functions, you define which additional functions should be available as pushbuttons in the BP overview or in the menu Environment. You define the additional functions to be displayed in F4 in the IMG activity Maintain Additional Functions of Business Partner Overview.
Data Transfer in the Business Partner Overview
The data transfer of the BP overview is carried out for events P120 - P128. SAP delivers standard function modules in which the data transfer for these events is preset. For example, the inbound correspondence of the last 365 days is determined and displayed in the BP overview using the standard function module for the event P121. If you want to define other settings for data transfer, you have to replace the standard function modules delivered by SAP with customer-defined function modules.
Standard Function Modules for the BP Overview:
FMCA_SAMPLE_P120 Reading of Correspondence History
FMCA_SAMPLE_P121 Reading of Inbound Correspondence History
FMCA_SAMPLE_P122 Reading of Payment List
FMCA_SAMPLE_P123 Reading of Business Partner Roles
FMCA_SAMPLE_P124 Descriptions in Navigation Area
FMCA_SAMPLE_P125 Reading of Account Balances
FMCA_SAMPLE_P126 Reading of Contract Accounts
FMCA_SAMPLE_P127 Reading of Customer Contacts
