Documentation
Definition
Customer/Vendor Indicator (C or V). Owners (business associates) are created in the system as either customers or vendors, depending on the function that they have in Ownership. The reason is that when a business associate it created, a link is created to a Core vendor or customer record master record in the core SAP Logistics module. The business associate can then use the Core record's attributes.
In almost every situation in PRA Ownership, you will set up owners (business associates) as VENDORS. In rare occasions, you can set up an owner as a customer. The only cases of that are when you are creating transporters and purchasers, which you define as customers.
Business associate types are used in the system in Revenue Distribution, in owner-level allocations.
