We have a group of customers that exist as sold-to / bill-to / payer partners in our system. Invoices for these customers go to a central, third party partner that pays the invoices on behalf of the sold-to's.
The third party wants to receive an EDI invoice list from us on a monthly schedule. Standard functionality calls for making the third party a payer partner to the sold-to's, and generating an INVOIC output of an invoice-list document.
The problem with standard functionality lies in accounting. When we put the 3rd party as a payer partner on the SD invoices, the accounting documents show up in the payer's account, and not the sold-to's account. The business wants the invoice activity to be in the sold-to's account, as this is the customer with legal obligation to pay.
So my question: is there a way to generate an invoice list document for a partner that is not the SAP standard payer? I can create a custom partner function to act like payer, but the invoice list functionality seems to be limited to the standard partner function for payer.
Thanks and Regards,
Ken
