Documentation

Definition

This indicator tells you that a vendor exists in the company code for a particular partner.

There is no automatic link between the vendor and the business partner. You must therefore create the vendor in FI before you can assign the vendor to a business partner in the General role data view (tab Control, section Account control). If the vendor assigned to the business partner has been created in a company code, the system automatically sets the Vendor indicator on the Control tab in the Company code data view.
