Automatic PO creation when neither from Contract or Inventory items.

Hi All,
    I have unique situation where PO were automatically created from Shopping cart upon approval when they did not have a Contract or for inventory items. The only difference noticed was it has preferred vendor assigned during SC. My thoughts is the SC documents should end up in Sourcing when there is no contracts found or not procured for invoentory.
We are in SRM 5.0 Extended Classic and SP 15.
I am not sure what might trigger these Shopping carts to be PO automatically upon approval. Please advise
Thanks
Rao

Hi Muthuraman,
    I understand inorder for SC to become PO, it needs to have a fixed Vendor. but my issue is the SC does not have a fixed vendor(no contract) but a preferred vendor was entered. Though preferred vendor is entered and Vendor is not fixed, PO was created after SC approval which should not be the case. My SPRO settings has 'Sourcing carried out for items without assgined source of supply'
Please advise.
Regards
Rao

  • Automatic PO creation when neither Contract or fixed vendor found

    Hi All,
        This is continuation of my previous thread. the issue has not been resolved and needs suggestions.
    SRM 5.0 ECS SP15. The issue happens sporadically when SRM SC is created without contract item (catalog/direct mat).
    So, when SC is created with above condition, instead of going to sourcing, system directly creates the PO. The only thing I noticed was the SC contained entry in preferred vendor field. there is no custom code on turning preferred vendor to fixed. And this does not happen often.
    Please advise
    Regards

    hello,
    the preferred vendor maintained is treated as a source of supply. below is the IMG documentation for Sourcing is carried out for items without a source of supply setting
    SAP Enterprise Buyer transfers all requirements that have multiple sources of supply, of which none are assigned, to the purchaser's sourcing application. Once you have selected a source of supply in the shopping cart, the item does not go to the sourcing application and a PO is created.
    as suggested by Ricardo, you may implement BBP_SRC_DETERMINE BAdI to overwrite this, i.e. Sourcing will not be carried out only when a contract is assigned to a shopping cart item.
    regards.

  • SES not pulling correct price when adopting from Contract

    When doing a service entry sheet against a Limit Purchase Order and
    adopting a service master from a contract the price that is being
    pulled into the SES appears to be from the last purchase document
    instead of the specific contract line item that is being adopted. When
    we adopt a service master line item from a contract for say $4.00 we
    are expecting $4.00 to be populated on the SES. Instead we are seeing
    a price of $3.00 which happens to be the price of the last purchase
    order where this service master was referenced. How can we get the
    system to pull in the service master from the contract with the
    contract pricing?
    Steps for Reconstruction    
    1. Select Contract from which to Adopt Service Master - the user is
    doing a service selection and choosing to adopt the pricing from
    Contract 5600000119, line item 2.
    2. Select Services to Adopt to SES - the user identifies which
    Service Masters they wish to adopt on the SES. Note the cost is $4.00
    for each of the first two service masters and $6.00 for the last one.
    3. Adopted Service Masters come in with incorrect pricing - once
    these Service Masters are adopted from the Contract to the SES they
    come in with incorrect pricing. $1.75, $3.00 and $1.75 instead of
    $4.00, $4.00 and $6.00.

    Hi,
    Can you confirm the following :
    1. What is the price maintained when creating teh service contract.
    2. was the service selection when creating services in limit PO done referencing the contract?

  • Is it possible to autocreate requisition from Projects for inventory items

    Is it possible to autocreate requisition from Projects for inventory items with destination type of inventory in a non-manufacturing organization?Also how ti budget for inventory items based on actual cost i.e. FIFO cost?
    Zeeshan

    Hi Dina,
    Hope you are fine and enjoyed the weekend.
    Thanks for your help, yes there was an error in the Material Transactions form, i have corrected and PA_TRANSACTIONS interface got updated. I issued the stock to Project and there was'nt any transaction transferred to Projects.
    I just want to confirm one more thing, we are using FIFO costing method, if i procure same item for 2 different projects like Qty 1 with Rate 10 for Project 123 on 1st Jan 2010 and then i receive same item Qty 1 Rate 20 for Project 124 on 10 Jan 2010. Then everything will be transferred to Projects and Projects Expediture will be updated with the receiving Transactions.
    Now what if, the stock is being issued in the reverse order than it was received. Like I enter Miscellaneous issue for Project 124 first, then as per FIFO rules system will pick Issue rate of 10 because it was received first......Due to this, dont you think its wrong from the system's point of view. Infact it should pick issue rate of 20 because it was received at 20.....
    One more thing, While doing Miscellaneous Transaction with Projects enabled, do the Locator Project Number and Source Project Number needs to be same. If No then whats the control that stock received for one project should be issued against that project only.
    Your thoughts on this scenario.

  • Automatic pricing in Purchase Order from contract

    Dear Experts,
    In a po if there is no contract available the pricing should be able to key in manually.
    is there any provisions to maintaining price list or any other method to get pricing automatically in to po?
    If there is contract exists, the pricing is coming automatically. But it is in changeable mode, our requirement is it should not be allowed to be changed manually.
    Is it possible?
    early answers is highly appreciated.
    Regards
    sai krishna

    hi,
    If thinking logically, then its bettwe to not to change the setting for displaying the price in the PO which will flow from contract..this is because thecontract is the internal doc while the PO is first external doc...In which all the req. changes like qty, value etc shd be possible ....because if it goes wrong, then whole process may get affected, so its suggested taht you don't change the setting...
    Secondly, If you don't use the contract then its better to go for Purcahse info record, which contains price of vendor material combination and which will also flow...

  • Reg: Creation of delivery from Contract

    Hi,
    I want to create a delivery type LF directly from Contract QC without creating a sales order.
    I have copied the copy control setting also, tried copying the item category as TAN for QC .
    Everything is failed.
    Please help me in doing this.
    Regards,
    Kumar

    Dear  kumar,
    Contracts do not have schedulines .The requested delivery dates will not be fixed for the contract documents.
    Therefor you can't create the delivery with reference to the contracts.
    I hope for your requirement you can use the scheduling agreements.
    Let me know if yo have further clarifications

  • Item number to be regenerated when copying from contract to sales order

    Hi,
    I am copying items from contract to sales order, say there are 10 items in contract. I copy all items leaving 5th & 7th item in contract. The numbers in sales order has to be in sequence (regenerated leaving the 5th & 7th line item) rather than it is copying the line item number as in the contract. Can any one kindly suggest me how to handle this in sales order.

  • Missing in Automatic Document Update (PO's from Contract)

    I need to run automatic PO update on open release orders after updating the contract. The 3 release orders do not have GR's against them or any other follow-on documents.
    The CONDBI setting is made for the message updates. The automatic index indicator is on in the vendor master. Because I set the indicator after two of the documents were created, I am running MEI3 to get my index up to date and it is creating entries for the documents in the index.
    My contract has two condition periods - one from today to 21.11.2010 for the current price; the second from the 22.11.2010 to infinity with the new price.
    My release orders have delivery dates of 22.10.2010, 15.11.2010 and 15.12.2010. Two documents were created 8.9.2010, the third was created today. These documents are selected for the index.
    When I run MEI1, SAP tells me the documents were processed successfully, but no changes are actually made. I would expect, with the delivery date of 15.12.2010, that the program would update the release order with the new price, since the delivery date falls after the price change.
    If I run MEI4 on the same data, the system doesn't create a worklist, saying there are no changes.  No entries are created in WIND table, unless I make the price change effective immediately on the EKPO-NETPR field - even when using the pricing date field  to indicate the later change (the condition change is also not re-effecting my release strategy on the contract, but that's another problem).  The BD61 change pointer setting is on.
    I'm not sure where to go from here to try to get this functionality working.

    To automatically created Approved PO's you will need the following
    1. To create Standard PO's a Requisition will have to use a Quotation. This quotation can be attached to an ASL to default while creating a req
    The Workflow "PO Create Documents" should have automatic creation allowed set to yes
    2. To create Releases a Blanket PO must be attached to an ASL . The Workflow "PO Create Documents" should have automatic creation allowed set to yes
    Please let me know if you have any questions
    Thanks

  • How do I turn off automatic bookmark creation when combining multiple PDFs into one?

    When I combine multiple PDFs into one, I need Adobe to use the CUSTOM bookmarks I created in the original PDFs. I do NOT want the additional PDF name as a bookmark in this instance. Is there a way to turn this option OFF in Acrobat Professional? I have version 9.

    You can not automatically turn off this action nor can you remove the 'file_name.pdf' heading, but you could add a button or menuitem to remove the 'file_name.pdf' from the bookamarks. Yes, it is one more step to perform when combining PDFs, but is you want until you have all of the PDFs combined you only need do it once.
    Removing filename bookmarks created by Acrobat by Sean Stewart
    From the above article:
    "With the release of Acrobat 6 came the ability to create a composite (binder) document from multiple files, (i.e. File > Create PDF > From Multiple Files.) When this is done, Acrobat automatically inserts a new top level bookmark at the start of each new file. The bookmark title will correspond to the source filename of the source file. While this level of separation can be helpful, it is counterproductive when the user wants the bookmark tree in the merged document to be continuous.
    "Here's a sample JavaScript to remove the top level bookmarks from the bookmark tree. This script will look for a ".pdf" extension to decide whether to remove the bookmark."
    With some additional coding you can add menu item or toolbar button.

  • Automatic DIR creation when mailed with Subject

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    We Have a requirement where an user sends a Mail with the subject line as the DIR No (particularly the Document folder No in EDMS) with some document files attached to it,
    The requirement is, based on the mail sent the system should create a DIR in DMS with the attached files placed inside the DIR automatically with out any manual interventions.
    So we can have a list of DIRs created under one folder in DMS.
    Please Explain in detail like how this requirement could be met, if it is an development also throw some light on the methord to be followed.
    There are some scanner interfaces available in the market but we are not sure to go for any third party integration for getting this single requirement fullfilled.
    Points awaiting for usefull suggestions
    Thanks and regards

    The TDMC(Technical Document Management Connectivity) offering allows a customer to connect to their SAP Document Management System (DMS) via MS Outlook. This is achieved using a MS Outlook Plug-in that was developed in C#, which you can modify at the customer's site to include customer-specific information. The second part of this offering is the usage of SAP Enterprise Services (ES), which are standard as of ERP 2005. This offering uses a specific ES called DocumentBulkCreate. The final part of this tool is the SAP DMS itself.
    This tool enables the following:
    - From MS Outlook, the user has a context menu option to work with SAP DMS.
    - By selecting this option, the user is prompted to add additional information about the e-mail (for the
      standard offering the user is prompted for the project number but this can be tailored to the customer
      needs via the C# program).
    - After confirmation, the tool then checks this e-mail into SAP DMS via the ES.
    - This creates a new Document Info Record (DIR) in which:
        1) Information about the e-mail along with any entered information via the prompt is automatically
           placed into the classification of this DIR.
        2) The body of the e-mail is saved as an original within the DIR as a *.txt file.
        3) Any/all attachments are stored as originals separately within the DIR in their original file format 
           (such as *.ppt, *.xls, *.docu2026).
    Within this document, you can expect to find step-by-step instructions on how to implement this toolset using the standard developed version. Some aspects of this implementation can be adapted to support customer-specific needs. Where applicable, the document attempts to point out whether customization of the offering is advised.
    Please refer SAP Document, "Enterprise Services End-to-End Implementation Guide Using SAP® ERP 2005, ECC-SE SP3" from SAP Service marketplace.
    Hope this helps.

  • Sales order from contract: all the items completed but still open

    Hi all,
    I have a problema with several sales orders created with
    reference to the same contract. Most of them have several
    items, all completed but still open. An example: there's an
    order with three items, two of which with complete delivery e the third marked for cancellation ( code S1 ). Why does the
    system show the first two items as not complete, despite the
    fact that both have complete delivery? Can the problem refer
    to any characteristic of the related contract? Can anyone help me on this topic?
    Thanks in advance.
