• SAP Tcode: VD05 - Block customer (sales)

  
  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code VD05 is used to block a customer from making sales orders. This is a useful tool for companies to prevent customers from making orders if they have not paid their outstanding invoices or if they have violated the terms of the contract. 
  
  Functionality: 
  The VD05 transaction code allows users to block a customer from making sales orders. This can be done by entering the customer number and selecting the “Block” option. The customer will then be blocked from making any further sales orders until the block is removed. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter the transaction code VD05 in the command field. 
  2. Enter the customer number in the “Customer” field. 
  3. Select the “Block” option in the “Action” field. 
  4. Click “Save” to confirm the changes. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is important to note that blocking a customer will also prevent them from viewing their account information, such as invoices and payment history. Therefore, it is recommended that users inform customers before blocking them so that they are aware of the consequences of their actions. Additionally, users should ensure that they have all necessary information before blocking a customer, such as their account number and contact details, so that they can be contacted if needed.
