Functional Overview
Foreign Trade Organization(FTO) and Legal Units(LU) are the organizational elements in GTS. These organizational elements are required to comply with the legal and customs requirements to allow execution of the respective country's import and export processes. Foreign Trade Organization (FTO) is the top level organizational unit in SAP GTS and it corresponds to the company code in the feeder system. Legal unit(LU) corresponds to the plant in the feeder system. FTO and LU are created as business partner in SAP GTS system with different roles. The objective of this application job is to automate the creation of the FTO and LU business partner in GTS by executing the report in the feeder S/4 HANA system.
Scope and Objectives
Foreign Trade Organization and Legal unit business partners are created manually in SAP GTS. Due to the huge volume of these organizational elements in Syensqo, creation of FTO and LU
business partner data is to be automated. Mapping of company code is 1: 1 and mapping of plants is also 1: 1. For every company code in feeder, only one FTO will be created in GTS. Similarly for every plant in feeder, only one legal unit will be created.

Special Requirements
Design Rationale
Functional Requirements
Existing process of creating the organizational elements FTO and LU is manual. In BP transaction , FTO and LU will be created one by one by referring to the data from the S/4 feeder.
Going forward, as part of this enhancement execution, company codes and plants will be replicated as business partners in GTS. For FTOs, the naming convention will be FTO_XXXX where XXXX will be the company code from S/4 feeder. For LUs, the naming convention will be LU_XXXX where XXXX is the plant from S/4 feeder.
For FTO, it should be created in 3 different BP roles -000000 Business Partner (General), SLLFTO(Foreign Trade Org) and FS0000(Financial Services BP).
For LU, it should be created in 3 different BP roles- 000000 Business Partner (General), SLLSIT(Legal Unit) and FS0000(Financial Services BP).
