SAP Customer/Vendor Integration (CVI)
Customer Vendor Integration
CVI is separated into 2 part.
1. CVI Configuration in S4/HANA system
2. CVI Synchronization
CVI Configuration
In S4/HANA, If we want to make it Business Partner as a Leading Object to maintain Customer or Vendor then we must do CVI Configuration.
Limitation of Customer/Vendor objects without CVI
-> Only single address we can maintain for each customer or vendor.
-> No relation supports between customer and vendor
-> No time dependency data we can have
-> In S4/HANA we have single business objects as ‘BP’.
-> BP is capable of centrally managing master data of BP, Customer, Vendor
Customer
· Customer is a BP to which we sell our Goods or Services.
· Some customer information is specific to a company (Company code data) or sales unit (Sales area data).
Vendor
· Vendor is a BP from which we buy goods or services.
· Some vendor information is specific to a company (Company code data) or purchasing unit (Purchase area data).
