Definition

The sending company code is the company code that is known to the business partner.

Use

When making cross-company code payments, you can specify the sending company code as well as the paying company code for each company code. If the sending company code is different from the paying company code, the system notes the sending company code in the payment transfer medium or payment advice. This note is information for the business partner.

Furthermore, the sending company code affects how the system groups items from different company codes into one payment. Items are only grouped into one payment for company codes with the same paying company code and the same sending company code.

If the sending company code is not specified, the system automatically regards the paying company code as the sending company code.

Procedure

Specify the sending company code if you want to pay using a cross-company code transaction but do not want to pay the items of all participating company codes together.

Examples

Example 1:
Company code 0001 pays its own items and the items of company codes 0002 and 0003. All items are grouped into one payment.

Company code    Paying company code    Sending company code

0001     0001     0001
0002     0001     0001
0003     0001     0001

Example 2:
Company code 0001 pays its own items and the items of company codes 0002 and 0003. However, a separate payment is created for each company code.

Company code    Paying company code    Sending company code

0001     0001     0001
0002     0001     0002
0003     0001     0003
