Use

In this IMG activity you can define which BP role categories enable customer integration in the direction from the business partner to the customer. You can determine how the system creates a corresponding customer in Financial Accounting when you process a business partner.

The BP role categories entered in this IMG activity are customer-based, this means that the system has to consider customer integration when it processes business partners with a corresponding BP role. In the IMG activity you can define whether the business partner role assigned to the BP role category is a mandatory or optional customer business partner role.

In the case of mandatory customer business partner roles the system automatically creates corresponding customers. In the case of optional customer business partner roles you can determine whether you want to create a corresponding customer during business partner processing.

Requirements

You have made settings for the BP roles and BP role categories needed in the Customizing for the SAP Business Partner in the IMG activity Define BP Roles.

Standard settings

Activities

If you want to enable customer integration for a BP role category, carry out the following steps:

  1. Choose the business partner role category in which you want to permit customer integration.
  2. Make settings for the BP role category for customer integration:
    • If you set the Mandatory for Customer indicator, you determine that when you process the business partner in this role category or in the assigned BP role, the corresponding customer is automatically processed.
    • If you set the Optional for Customer indicator, you determine that when you process the business partner in this role category or in the assigned BP role, you can decide whether the corresponding customer is created.
      • You can enter the customer to be created on the tab page Customer: General Data when you process the business partner.
    • If you enter a suitable function module (such as BPOB_TRD001_DEB_ROLLE, for example) in the field Role Control Settings, this function module makes the required customer integration settings for the corresponding business partner role category. The system enters suitable function modules only for optional customer role control settings.
      • For loan contracts, for example, this enables you to determine at which point in time a customer is created for a business partner, dependent on the contract status and the company code.
    • If you enter a suitable function module (such as BPOB_TRD001_VORBEL_DEB, for example) in the field Default Settings, the function module enters the default values for the customer to be created. You can enter default values for the following data:
      • - Customer Master (General Data)
      - Customer Master (Company Code)
      - Customer Master (Dunning Data)
      These default values are used when you create a customer or a company code, for example.
