3.2.3.1 Assigning Sales Areas to Customer Hierarchy Types

area uses its own customer hierarchies or shares one with another sales area.

Procedure

3.2.3.2 Allowed Account Group Assignments for Customer
Hierarchies

Use
This activity assigns the possible high-level account groups to the account groups permitted for
each customer hierarchy type. Therefore, both the valid account groups for each hierarchy type
are defined and the high-level account groups of the valid account groups. This prevents the
system assigning a ship-to party above a sold-to party.

Procedure
