Effect of Changes in the Customer Master

When you change a master record after having used it to create documents (orders, deliveries, billing documents, …), the changes do not affect the documents already created. However, the address in the customer master is an exception. Therefore, if it was necessary, you would have to change the data in the documents manually, except for the address.

Data From Master Records

When you create a sales document without referring to a preceding document, the system copies the following data from the master records:

• Data about the sold-to party and other partners (for example, ship-to party or payer) from the customer master records
• Item data from the material master record
• Data from any relevant customer-material information records
