Default Procurement Type for a Material Type

Hello everybody,
Is it possible to assign a default procurement type (for example: F) to a Material Type?
If yes, can you explain me where (which transaction)?
If no, can you explain me an alternative to do so?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help...
Regards,
Rudy

You can do this by configuring material type.
Follow the path
IMG->Logistic general->material master->Basic Settings>Material types-->Define attributes of the material type
Select the material type and click detail button
In the External/Internal Purchase order Subscreen---Set the following details
Ext. Putchase Order should be 2 (external purchase order allowed)
Int. Purchase Order should be 0 (No internal purchase order allowed)
If u save the setting
then when u create material master, Procure type would be F in MRP 2 screen and you cant change this value becuase the field is greyed out it will be only displayed

G/L account not defaulting in PO for UNBW material.

Hi,
Customer requirement is to populate a G/L account for a non-valuated material (Mat type:UNBW) in PO for account assignment category K (Cost center). There is no accounting view for the material we used in PO.
Following steps were done :
1) Valuation class is maintained for the material group in SPRO
2) OBYC settings are done .i.e. Under GBB-> VBR -> Valuation class is assigned to a G/L account
Account assigned PO is created for that material. Account assignment category is K and Material group is also given in PO for which valuation class is already assigned.
Even though all the settings were made, G/L account is not picked in the PO. Could you please help us

Hi Raja/ Friends,
Thanks for the reply. G/L account is getting defaulted even without accounting View in Material master for UNBW material (even with material master data). There was a valuation grouping code mismatch ealier, which we fixed and then the G/L account started defaulting. But there is a new problem now. G/L account is defaulting only in the Development client. This is not appearing in the test client. We checked the configurations, transports etcc and everything appears to be okie and configurations are very similar as that in the development client. Is there anything that we need to specifically check or do while transporting this ?

Mandatory default account assignment for HIBE material

Hi,
For stock transfer PO we need account assignment Mandatory with default value "K" while creating the stock transfer PO.
How we can do this?
With Best Regards,
Rajkumar

Thanks for the reply.
We want the same functionality as described by you.
The requirement is that, when the stock transfer PO will be created the account assignment for line item of HIBE type (only) should be displayed as "K" i.e. Acct. assig. is mandatory and default equal to "K". With this restriction the user creating the Stock transfer PO for HIBE material will be prompted to enter cost center and GL account. And when goods receipt will be made for the PO, the HIBE material will get consumed for cost center.
So, can we made such restrictions while creating stock transfer PO?

Wrong procurement type showing in the material master

Hi,
I am creating a material Procurement type is comming as E in the MRP2 view, To where it is comming?
I have checked the material type setting in the tcode OMS2 and it below are showing there:
Ext. purchase orders 2
Int. purchase orders 2
Hence it's allowed int. and ext. proc. then why in the material master procurement type is comming E not X.
How can I change it?

Check to see if you have assigned an MRP Profile which has defaulted Procurement Type. If this is the case, you will have to remove the MRP Profile before you can change the entry. Or you can maintain the MRP Profile by deselecting "Write-protected in material maintenance" and selecting "Only default value in material maintenance" for Procurement Type. The Transaction is MMD2.

Report showing vendors for particular material groups

I am trying to perform an analysis to determine vendors which have procured items for specific material groups. I have 64 different material groups which represent indirect materials and I want to be able to determine what vendors have been procuring these materials. I have run transaction ME2C to examine purchasing documents, however there is way too much information and the system cannot generate the list.
I was curious if there was some aggregate report that I could use in the Logistics Information System. I know the Purchasing Information System has Standard Analysis for Material Groups, however I have to drill down to each Material Group and change the breakdown by Vendor to get the list and this can be somewhat time consuming considering I will have to do this 64 times.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Don

use transaction MC$<
execute the selection
in the report choose from menu settings > characteristics display
and select either Key or Key and description
then choose from menu Material group analysis > Export > transfer to XXL

Proper Prty (Procurement Type) setting in SO for a HAWA BANC Material

Hello Gurus,
We're finally making our way through several issues we've had with our 3rd Party item (Individual Order) setup. We have Material type HAWA w/ item category group BANC (for individual purchase order) so that the SO will generate the PR to be converted to PO. However, when we go to address the PR, the system wants the Pr Ty field addressed under the 'Procurement' tab of the SO. The 2 choices are: KEB and KSV.
My question is: Are there MRP settings that would have this data defaulted in the SO if populated in MRP01/02/03/04 tabs? If so, what should it be set for for Material Type HAWA Item cat BANC?
What should my MRP Type (under MRP1) be set to? I currently have it at ND (no planning).
Must there be a Special Procurment type value set (MRP2)? Currently none.
Must there be a Strategy Group value set (MRP3)? Currently none.
Ultimately, we do not want the Order Entry person (putting in the SO) do have to determine anything here...and, we want to ensure the proper settings for this HAWA/BANC type of material.
Regards,
SP

Hello - Please let me know if my question is inappropriate, not asked properly or I've done something improper. I have not received any responses and want to make sure I'm doing what is expected on my side as to not cause problems.
Your guidance is greatly appreciated because I want to use the forum properly!

MRP uses special procurement type L for material .ME174

Hi All:
   1 .When I tried to create PO for non-valued material using ME21N,SAP displayed message "MRP uses special procurement type L for material"- .ME174.
    (Non-vaued material is customized material type which has no accouting view and is supplyed by suupplyer for free.)
   2.I checked the material setting in MM03 finding that the Procurement type has been set as 'F' and the Special procurement has been set as '30'.
   3.I checked the SPRO finding that the setting as following path finding that Special procurement has been set as L.
    IMG > MM > Consumption-Based Planning > Master Data > Define Special Procurement Types
   So what other problem is with my setting or configuration for the creating PO?
Thanks.

Hi,
You may want to double check the customization entry for special procurement type 30. Do ensure you are checking for the correct plant and you have "L" maintained against special procurement in the details section.
If this doesn't help, a post in the MM forum - SAP ERP - Logistics Materials Management (SAP MM) could help.

Planned order for Procurement type X

Hi Gurus,
I am working on REM.
Planned order generated through MRP for REM material with Proc Type "X" is not convertible into Purchase requisition or Production order.
This option I am not getting.
Any one can help me out.
Srini

Hi,
Eventhough the Procurement type is "X", by default system will consider the Inhouse Production.
Hence check your Planned Order Type : It should be PE.
For your Procurement Type; "X" to Work, you should have Quota Arrangement and Source List defined for your Material and Vendor also.
You need to mention the Quota arrangement all the Parameters like %, source, Inhouse or External Procement etc..
Then during MRP Run system will create the Planned Orders and PurReq for your Material.
Hope this helps..

Select your field and group it under a seperate group. And make it as editable in Field slection for transaction mm02.

Material procurement types

hi friends,
can any one tell me material procurement types

Hello
Check this document on Material Type:
Use
When the system determines the procurement element, it first asks whether procurement should take place via in-house production or external procurement.
Prerequisites
You have defined whether in-house production, external procurement or both are allowed for the material, in the material master record, in the Procurement type field. The procurement type is preset by the material type in Customizing for the material master.
If necessary, you have defined more precisely how the in-house production or external procurement is to be carried out, in the material master (MRP 2 view), in the Special procurement field.
You define special procurement keys in Customizing for MRP in the IMG activity Define special procurement type.
Features
Procurement Type
If both in-house production and external procurement are defined for the material via the material type (indicator X in Procurement type field), then you can set the procurement type as follows:
By overwriting the indicator in the material master
By converting the planned order either into a production order or a purchase requisition
By using quota arrangements, in that you define that a certain percentage of the material is to be procured via in-house production and the rest via external procurement (see Quota Arrangements).
If you leave the indicator X for both procurement types in the material master record, and you have not maintained any quota arrangements, the system automatically switches to in-house production. The planned order therefore firstly creates planned orders, which you can then convert into production orders or purchase requisitions.
Special Procurement Type
The special procurement type is used to precisely define how in-house production and external procurement is to be carried out.
Special Procurement for In-House Production
For a phantom assembly
Production in alternative plant
Withdrawal from an alternative plant
Direct production
Special Procurement for External Procurement
Consignment
Subcontracting
Stock transfer
Direct Procurement
Reg

Default Purchasing organisation for Purcashing Document type

Dear Gurus,
I need to make default Purchasing organisation for Purcashing Document type. How to configue this. Please advice me.
Thanks
RS

Hi,
You can do it with Personal Setting option which is available in purchase order header level.
Click on this button, Go in Defaults Values.
Enter material type, purchasing org. and other required detail.
Then always at the time of purchase order creation you got same material type and purchasing org.
Note: You can do it for only one material type and purchasing org.

Default PR type for MRP (planned order -- PR)

Hi Expert,
Is there any posibility to set default PR type for planned order - PR conversion from MRP?
in SAP standard, PR type is NB, we have configured specific PR type, let say PRM. The purpose is we do not need to change NB to PRM while converting the planned order into PR.
Pls help.Thanks
Rgds,

Hi Gurus,
This is my first post in this forum. Have been trying to search this forum for my case all day and found some answers but when i implemented it in my SAP , the answers didn't work.
The case is:
When i try to convert Planned Order to PR through tcode MD15/MD16, the system will propose PR Document Type NB as default. In my company we don't use that NB PR type. We have another 10 customized PR Type and one of them is for Replenishment. I'd like to set this ZR09(Replenishment) PR Type as default and it's not possible to choose another PR Type.
I have read several answers and implemented them, for example:
1. OPPR with MRP Group 000, and I found no indicator except Scheduling/Doc Type. I typed ZR09 in field Doc Type SPO but in MD15/MD16 other PR Types still appear with NB as default.
2. SPRO-MM- Consumption based planning u2013Procurement Proposal u2013 Define Order Profile or SPRO-PRoduction - MRP- Procurement Proposal - Planned Order - Define order Profile, when creating new entries with Object Type Planned Order/PR still canu2019t find my customize PR Type in field Order Type. Field Order Type only consist of 2 digits order type such as NB,LA,RS,KD,KB,PE,PR,VP. No place to choose PR Type ZR09 or other customized PR Type.
Can anyone help my case?
Thanks and regards,
IC BUMA

Default lot size for MRP type

Hi,
Can we set default Lot size for MRP type ?
Regards
Karthik

Dear,
Yes you can do it by creating material master with MRP Pofile.
First you need to create MRP Pofile in MMD1 where you need to define the LOT SIZE and MRP TYPE which you want then make these value as Fix Value.
Then Create material master MM01 with this MRP Profile and check your result.
