Configuring the communication types as per Account groups in Vendor Master
By Madhavi
Background of the requirement:
1. Go to transaction XK02
2. Enter the vendor number and the company code. Select the “Address” check box from the “General Data” and press ENTER.
3. Click on “Other communication..” 
4. Following communication methods are displayed in a pop-up box.
5. Our requirement here is to have “Internet email address” as a communication method and also we are not interested in communication type “Teletax”. So we need to add “internet email” and remove “teletex”.
Following is the procedure to achieve the same:
1. Go to SPRO à Financial Accounting àAccounts Receivable and Accounts Payable à Vendor Accounts à Master Records à Preparations for Creating Vendor Master Records à Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Vendors) 
2. Double click on your “Vendor Account Group”.
3. Double-click on “General data”.
2. Select “Communication”
3. Now in this screen, you can select the communication types you want to suppress, make an optional entry, required entry or display. 
4. Since the “Internet mail address” is suppressed, this did not appear in our vendor master change transaction. Now let us make “Internet mail address” as optional and “Teletex” as suppressed. 
5. Save and close this transaction.
Now execute “Vendor Master” change transaction again. This time you would observe that the internet email is appearing in your list and Teletex has disappeared.
