Business Partner FAQs

What is the difference between business partner, customer and vendor in SAP S/4HANA?

Business partner:

A central master data object in SAP S/4HANA that combines customers, vendors and other roles (e.g. employees) in a standardized structure. Roles such as customer or vendor are assigned to the business partner, simplifying data maintenance and integration. Basic data such as name, address, contact details etc. are maintained centrally for the business partner.

Debtor and customer (roles FLCU00, FLCU01):

A person or organization that purchases products or services and makes payments. In SAP, it represents the customer role.
FLCU00 - contains specific data for the respective company code from an accounting perspective that is linked to this customer (company code, reconciliation accounts, tax codes, terms of payment)
FLCU01 Sales view with customer-related data such as payment agreements, discounts, etc.


Vendor and supplier (roles FLVN00, FLVN01):

A person or organization that supplies goods or services and issues invoices. In SAP, it represents the vendor role.
FLVN00 - contains specific data for the respective company code from an accounting perspective that is linked to this vendor (reconciliation accounts, terms of payment, invoice verification)
FLVN01 - purchasing view with supplier-related data such as terms of delivery, purchasing information, payment targets

How do I migrate existing customer and supplier data to Business Partner data?

After preparing the master data (checking and cleansing) using SAP conversion tools such as CVI (Customer Vendor Integration). This involves migrating the general data to the business partner object and ensuring integration and synchronization with the customer and vendor objects.
Good planning and coordination between the IT and specialist departments is crucial to the successful implementation of data migration.

What challenges arise when introducing the business partner concept in SAP S/4HANA?

Old customer and vendor data must be cleansed and harmonized. The number range must be changed, and new role management may also be necessary. Employees need to understand and embrace the new concept, so training is essential. A gradual introduction, regular tests and close cooperation with SAP experts or implementation partners can help to overcome these challenges.

How can duplicates in the Business Partner data be effectively avoided?

Avoiding duplicates in business partner data is crucial for data quality and efficiency in business processes. Automated duplicate check, clear rules for data entry and continuous monitoring/cleansing can significantly improve quality.

Which roles can be assigned to a business partner and what effects do they have?

Roles such as debtor (mapping of processes such as invoicing and payment transactions), customer (orders and conditions from partners), vendor (payments and invoice verification to partners) and supplier (orders and goods receipt for the company's own value-added processes) can be assigned.
