In this IMG activity you define distribution channels in your company or edit distribution channels that already exist. In order to adapt the functional scope of a distribution channel to the organization in your company, you should process the following check list:

  • You allocate a distribution channel to one or more sales organizations.
  • You allocate one or more plants to a distribution channel.
  • Within a distribution channel, you can define your own master data for customers or materials as well as your own conditions and pricing.
  • You can create master data for a representative distribution channel which is then also used in other distribution channels. To do this, you have to additionally create the allocation of the representative distribution channel to the other distribution channels.
  • For a distribution channel, you can determine your own sales document types.
  • You can determine sales offices for a distribution channel.
  • All items of a sales document belong to a distribution channel. The entire sales document is therefore entered for a distribution channel.
  • The items of a delivery can belong to different distribution channels.
  • All items of a billing document belong to a distribution channel.
  • The distribution channel can be used as a selection criterion in lists.
  • You can determine the printer destination for messages differently for every distribution channel on the basis of the sales and billing documents.

A distribution channel does not fulfill the following criteria:

  • A distribution channel does not have its own address.
  • You cannot allocate your own employees to a distribution channel.

You specify the representative distribution channels in the menu option "Define common distribution channels ".

Recommendation

  • Please use the sales division "01" as "general sales division" if you do not differentiate between different sales divisions in your company.
  • If you enter the value 01 as a parameter in the user master record, the user does not need to make further specifications.
  • Define the master data for a representative sales division if you do not need to differentiate master data by sales division. The data can then be used in several sales divisions.

Activities

  1. Select the type of processing:
    • To define a distribution channel, specify a two character alphanumeric key and a description.
    • Copy, delete or check the settings for a distribution channel.
  2. Use the project IMG view to process data that has been changed automatically.

If you specify the value as a parameter (VTW) in the user master record, the user will not need to make any further entries.
