This customizing transaction is used to customize address determination and storage for BP-based customers and vendors:

• specify how address sent to SAP FSM will be determined - including source and address type

• specify how address created in FSM will be stored in SAP ECC/S4

...

• BP Addresses - Business Partner addresses are sent to FSM

...

Use the tab ‘BP Address Types’ to specify which address types are allowed for FSM and which FSM address types they should be assigned to (bill-to, ship-to, other). ‘Standard’ addresses are sent as ‘default’ to FSM.  

...

Address created in FSM

You can decide whether addresses created for Business Partners in FSM should be stored in SAP ECC/S4 by adjusting the ‘Address from FSM’ setting in the ‘Address Detemination Settings’ tab:

...

• Store - inbound addresses will be saved in SAP ECC/S4

  • When Business Partners are enabled (see the field ‘Business Partner functionality enabled’ in https://proaxia-prod-doc.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PFCC/pages/31952515), the addresses will be stored as BP addresses, based on the mapping provided in the ‘BP Address Types’ tab.

    • If more than one relevant entry is found, the first found one is used. If none found, an error is thrown.  

    • ‘Default’ addresses are saved as ‘standard’ in SAP.  

    • If only one address of a given type is allowed in SAP, then the validity date of the former one ends and the new address becomes the only valid one

  • When Business Partners are disabled:

    • Addresses for Vendors will be stored only in a dedicated table - /PACG/ECM_BPOADR. Data from this table can be used by custom implementation of address storing.

    • Addresses for Customers will be stored in a new customer created during inbound processing of an address. The customer is then linked to the original customer via a partner role. If customer creation fails, the address is stored in the /PACG/ECM_BPOADR table.
