Hi Team,
We have a business scenario and need your advice.
Client is Industrial Equipment Manufacturing company.
Suppliers (vendors) also like big concerns with various divisions and manufacturing units at different locations.
The existing legacy system setup is one parent vendor and multiple child vendors and they have some cross reference table to map the parent and child vendor relationships. (One parent vendor can have multiple child vendors)
They wont order / create PO for parent vendor. Parent vendors are only for reporting purpose to see how much they ordered as over all group of all child vendors for a time period. They order / create PO only for child vendor.
Some times one child vendor is ordering address, goods supplier and remit to like all functions.
But, Some times one child vendor is ordering address and the goods supplier and remit to is different child vendor under the parent vendor.
The couple of options which we are thinking is SAP Vendor Master Corporate Group field under control data, SAP Partner Function, SAP Vendor and Vendor Subrange setup.
How to handle this?
Thanks
RS
