Functionality
You use this function module to create a business partner, whereby youcan also create an address with related communication types. The dataentered in the interface is checked for consistency and for Customizingsettings. If this check reveals one or more errors, the errors arelogged in the RETURN table, and the business partner is not created.
If the appropriate settings have been made in the system, a duplicatecheck is carried out during creation. If a record that is to be createdis recognized as already existing in the system, the addresses that aresimilar to this record are stated in the table ADDRESSDUPLICATES. Ifthe tool used for the duplicate check offers the possibility, theprobability of the current record being a duplicate is stated in thetable ADDRESSDUPLICATES.
It is possible, via the table parameters stated above, to createaddress-independent communication data for the business partner. Incontrast to the address-dependent communication data, no otherinformation from the structure ADRESSDATA is necessary here forcreating the communication data. It is possible to maintain bothaddress-dependent communication data and address-independentcommunication data for a business partner. The data for theaddress-independent communication data is checked, possible errors arelogged and output in the RETURN table.
