When deals are signed following a customer recommendation, or a new lead or customer are added to your database based on a reference from existing customer, you can document it in your records in the Business Partner Master Data as follows:

Step 1: In Customer or Lead master data, enter the referring customer code into the “BP Channel Code” field.

Note: Only business partners of type “Customer” can be used.

Step 2: When creating a sales document for the given customer or lead, the “BP Channel Name” and “BP Channel Contact” are automatically populated in the respective fields.
