Assigning Buying Segment Codes to Customers

To assign a buying segment to a customer or change the code that you have assigned, use the Customer Master program (P03013). This program enables you to define invoice information, credit information, billing information, tax information, and more for a customer.

After you assign a buying segment to a customer, the system stores the information in the Customer Master by Line of Business table (F03012). When you enter an order for the customer to which you assigned a buying segment code, the system stores the information in these tables:

  • Customer Master by Line of Business (F03012).

  • Sales Order Header File (F4201).

  • Sales Order Header History File (F42019).

  • S.O. Detail Ledger File (F42199).

  • Sales Order Detail File (F4211).

  • Sales Order History File (F42119).

The system displays the buying segment code on the following forms in the Sales Order Entry program (P4210):

  • Sales Order Entry (SOE) - Additional Info 1 tab (additional information 1 tab).

  • Sales Order Header - Additional Header Information.
