3772306 - payment reason set in manage business partner (company code) not visible in maintain business partner (supplier general data)

Payment Reason maintained in the Manage Business Partner app under the Company Code tab does not appear in the Maintain Business Partner app under Supplier: General Data; the field is blank.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. In the Manage Business Partner app, open a supplier and set the Payment Reason in the Company Code tab (for example, “TCP”).
2. In the Maintain Business Partner app, open the same supplier and check Supplier: General Data; the Payment Reason field is blank.

The two apps display Payment Reason at different data levels: Manage Business Partner shows the Company Code-level field (LFB1-PAYTRSN), while Maintain Business Partner > Supplier: General Data shows the General-level field (LFA1-PAYTRSN). If only the Company Code-level value is maintained, the General-level field remains blank.

1. Decide which level you need the Payment Reason to be maintained at (General vs. Company Code).
2. To display the Payment Reason in Maintain Business Partner > Supplier: General Data, maintain the General-level Payment Reason (LFA1-PAYTRSN) for the supplier.
3. To display the Payment Reason in Manage Business Partner > Company Code tab, maintain the Company Code-level Payment Reason (LFB1-PAYTRSN) for the relevant company code.
4. If you require the same value to appear in both apps, maintain both General (LFA1-PAYTRSN) and Company Code (LFB1-PAYTRSN) accordingly.
5. For custom logic or integrations, ensure you read the correct field based on the required level: LFA1-PAYTRSN (General) or LFB1-PAYTRSN (Company Code).
