Partner Determination; Partners such as the sold to party,
bill to party, payer, etc. are necessary in the majority of
document processing. Automatic partner determination
happens in the sales documents,delivery documents, and
billing documents, as well as in sales activities and the
customer master record.

PARTNER FUNCTION: are diffrent partner for which you are
creating customer master record in xd01 like Sold to party,
ship to party, bill to party, payer & special stock partner
(which is used for consignment business process).

PARTNER TYPE: could be customer or vendor or plant,
shipping point (for more information go to VOPA tcode)
ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT & PARTNER PROCEDURE: is to assign each
partner function to it role and and assign to account group
