    So S4 HANA come up with new technology which have:

     User Experience.
     Simplicity
     Cloud based tech

    It is very difficult to meet the requirement of customer now a days as things around us changing rigorously. Customer need most optimised solution for
    their business.

    The S4 HANA (SAP Business Suite For HANA) is solution for all the challenges Business are facing now a day.

    This blog attempts to give the information on configuration on Customer/Vendor Integration process.

    1. What is Business partner?

    A Business Partner can be a person, organization, group of people, or a group of organizations, in which a company has a business interest. It is the
    single point of entry to create, edit, and display the master data for business partners, customers and vendors. A Business Partner consists of general
    data like name, address, bank information, etc. as well as role specific information i.e. customer/vendor/employee data.

    2. Why Business Partner?


    1. Data Redundancy: A person can be a Vendor as well as customer, in traditional ERP we have to create two objects. With business partner
    single object is only required.
    2. Multiple Transactions: To create vendor or customer we have to go to different transactions. With Business Partner single transaction
    “BP” is required both objects.
    3. Centrally managing master data for business partners, customers, and vendors.
    3. Customer and Vendor Integration to Business Partner:
    1. Customer
    2. Vendor
    3. Business partner

    In Traditional ERP, we have Customer and Vendor as different object.

    For Customer, we have following views:

     General
     Finance
     Sales

    For Vendor, we have following views:

     General
     Finance
     Purchasing

    For creating there objects we need different Transaction code:

    Customer: XD01, FD01, VD01

    Vendor: XK01, FK01,MK01


    In S4 HANA both customer and vendor get created with Transaction BP.
