Documentation

Definition

Determines whether the business partner named as the location in the main relationship is represented by the customer or the vendor in account statements.

Use

The role of location in statement is used in the following areas:

  1. Statement creation
    Here, it determines whether the business partner named as the location in the main relationship represents the customer or the vendor in account statements. It also determines the use of the +/- sign with regard to the posted quantities.
  2. Inbound processing of account statements
    On receipt of a statement, the system uses the combination of customer and vendor relationship and returnable packaging to detemine the account to which the statement belongs. The system must calculate which partner (customer or vendor) is the location in this context and which is the exchange partner (customer or vendor). To do this, it refers to the "role of location in statement" that is specified in the account master data.
  3. Account matching
    Here, it determines the use of the +/- sign with regard to the posted quantities (see Normalization of the +/- sign).
