In this step, you define the partner determination procedures and the partner functions that belong to them. You assign a partner determination procedure to an appropriation request by means of the appropriation request type. In the master record of the appropriation request, you can assign the persons involved with the appropriation request to appropriate partner functions (roles). In this way, you can manage the names and functions of people associated with the appropriation request.

Note

You should be aware that partner determination procedures also play a role in the approval process for appropriation requests. You have to assign a partner function, from the partner determination procedure being used, to each approval level. The person who holds the given partner function is responsible for the approval at that level (see defining approval levels).

Activities

  1. Define the partner functions that you want to use in connection with your appropriation requests. Make sure that a partner type is assigned to each partner function. The following partner types are allowed for appropriation requests:
    • US (user)
    • O (organizational unit)
    • A (work center)
    • S (position)
  2. You can define keys for the partner functions that are language-dependent on the log-on language.
  3. Define the partner determination procedures and enter the necessary partner functions there.
