Use

Inbound processing (from SAP):

This field must contain a description of the sender, e.g. customer ('KU') or vendor ('LI').

SNDPFC, SNDPRN and SNDPRT serve as a unique ID for the sender. They are assigned to the corresponding key fields of the (inbound) partner profile, which is used to determine the process code, and therefore the internal SAP processing. The external system must maintain the field with the value as entered in the inbound partner profiles.

Outbound processing:

The sender is the SAP system. The field should contain the value 'LS' ('logical system').
