SAP software offers features that simplify your SME’s operations. Every week, we share tips that highlight how these features can benefit your business.
This week, we talk about how SAP Business One now allows you to assign multiple Business Partners to a single Equipment Card, making it easier to manage equipment shared between companies. With this feature, you can also configure the automatic addition of partners to equipment cards from new documents, making the process more efficient.
Many pieces of equipment are used by more than just one person or company. Imagine, for example, a coffee machine that serves two different companies in the same building.
To reflect this reality, SAP Business One now allows you to associate several Business Partners with a single Equipment Card:

When selected, a browsing button appears next to the Business Partner Code field in the Equipment Card, enabling you to assign multiple business partners and set the default one to be displayed in the field:

If you select also the option “Automatically Add Business Partners from New Documents to Existing Equipment Cards”, business partners from newly created documents where the given equipment card appears, will be added to that equipment card automatically. Note that this option is available only when automatic creation of equipment card is activated.
Available in SAP Business One 10.0 PL02 and SAP Business One 10.0, version for SAP HANA PL02.
