account and the payment methods for automatic payment transactions. This is

Partner Roles - Vendor Master
The vendor can have various functions in its interaction with your company.
During the procurement transaction the vendor is the order recipient,
then the supplier of goods,
the invoicing party,
And finally, the payee.
By maintaining partner roles in the vendor master record, you can distribute one or more of
these roles among different vendor master records.

with whom you do not regularly do business.
If an RFQ or a PO is sent to a one-time vendor, you must enter the vendor data manually.

Vendor Master can be created in two ways:
1st method:
All Purchase related data can be created with transaction code MK01. With this transaction
code, user cannot create data relevant to Finance.
All finance related data can be created with transaction code FK01. If this method is adopted
in the Company, there should be regular communication between Purchase and Finance
departments on all the changes made in Vendor Master.
2nd method:
Complete data, Purchase related data and finance related data can be created centrally with
transaction code XK01.
In this manual process of creating Vendor Master centrally is described.
