Parent business partnerThe parent business partner links the various business-partners with different roles in a distributed business partner organization. To process a sales order from a sold-to business partner, send an invoice to an invoice-to business partner, and to register the receipt of an invoice amount from a pay-by business partner, one of the following must be true:
The ship-to business partner does not need to be related to the sold-to business partner by means of a parent business partner. The same rules apply to the combination of buy-from, ship-from, invoice-from, and pay-to business partners. You can select the parent business partner in the Business Partner (tccom4100s000) session. If you leave the Parent Business Partner field empty, the business partner is considered to be its own parent.
