A question popped up during my learning process asking " How would you proceed if an existing supplier would now also become a customer" to which the answer " SImply maintain the BP role in Sales and Financial Accounting" was provided. 

My question is, will the different BP roles (Vendor and Customer) not cause a conflict through the extension of the role? At what point in a transaction is SAP able to differentiate and apply a specific role?

Hi - great question!  Chances are for the sales side, you will create a sales organization/area while for the finance side you have company codes.  Organizational elements will determine the differences.
