Hi,

The grouping key represents a rule according to which the open items of Vendor accounts
are to be grouped together for payment/ Dunning. For creation of Grouping key for
dunning, T code is OBAQ and for payment grouping T code is OBAP. By these T codes
you can create the Grouping Keys and assign these keys at the time of creation of Vendor
Master. So while running the report for payment/ dunning, you can extract the report by
Grouping Keys.

You can get the vendor line item reports by Grouping Keys.

Thanks,

Regards,

Ramnath.

If for example you have

Reliance Industries Ltd

Reliance Energy Ltd and

Reliance Petroleum as your customer.

You can create a grouping key REL and assing it in all the
above customers.

This will help you to run various reports and transactions using
Grouping key to know balance of the entire group together.
