4 Default contact
5 Email address and other communication data

General

Contact persons can be created, changed and deleted on SAP side and created, changed and deactivated on FSM side.

Title

When creating a contact person with a title in FSM, use one of the titles maintained in transaction SA03 (and marked as relevant for Person):

Otherwise, inbound idocs will fail. In case of idoc failure, create the missing title in SA03 and then reprocess the idoc.

Deactivation

Deactivation is reflected in SAP only in case when BP transaction is used for customer/vendor handling. Contacts deactivated in FSM are populated in SAP with dummy Vaild From date (31.12.9999) as on the example below:

Default contact

(S4) PACG 200 SP10 It is possible to add default contact person for Business Partner from SAP FSM.

Email address and other communication data

(S4) PACG 200 SP12 Email address and other communication data are determined based on the customizing transaction https://proaxia-prod-doc.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PFCC/pages/2049998849.

With Service Pack (S4) PACG 200 SP11 and older, determination of such data was hard-coded. In (S4) PACG 200 SP11 , if business partners are used on a system (see the flag ‘BP used’ in https://proaxia-prod-doc.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PFCC/pages/31952515) and relationships between customers and contact persons are maintained, the email from relationship is retrieved first and has priority over the email from contact person's main data. Only if no relationship email is maintained would the main mail be used as contact person’s email in FSM. In (S4) PACG 200 SP10 and older, relationship email is not considered, only the email from contact person’s main data.
