Documentation

Definition

The partner role counter allows you to distinguish between the assignments for a business partner in a role for the sales document.

The partner role counter is always a three-digit value, which is assigned according to the following rules:

• The partner role counter always begins with '9' for the roles Payer and Bill-To Party. The last two digits stand for the advertiser assignment number. For example, the payer who belongs to the second advertiser for the item is assigned the partner role counter '902' and the bill-to party for the first advertiser is assigned the partner role counter '901'.
• The first digit in the partner role counter for the role Voucher Copy Recipient is '4'. The partner role counter increases in the same order in which you create voucher copy recipient assignments for the order for all items.
  For example, if you first assign voucher copy recipient VC1 to the second item in an order, followed by voucher copy recipient VC2, each with a voucher copy that is subject to charge, these assignments are given the partner role counters '401' and '402'. If you then assign the voucher copy recipient VC3 at header level, this assignment is given the partner role counter '403'. If you then assign voucher copy recipient VC1 to the second item again with a free voucher copy, this assignment is given the partner role counter '404'.
  When assignments are passed down to lower order levels, the partner role counter remains the same; this means that all assignments at item and schedule line level that originate from the assignment of voucher copy recipient VC3 at header level also have the partner role counter '403'.
• The first two digits of the partner role counter for the role Box Number Recipient are '88'. The partner role counter counts the box number recipients for each item. Since only one box number recipient can be assigned per item, the partner role counter for box number recipients is always '881'.
• If you assign further partners in roles you have defined yourself, the partner role counter increases for all roles in the order of the assignments for each item, starting from '001'.
  For example, if you assign the business partner BP1 to the first item in the role R1, the system assigns the partner role counter '001'. If you then assign the business partner BP2 in the role R2, the value for the partner role counter becomes '002'. If you also assign BP2 to the second item in the role R2, the partner role counter '001' is assigned.
