Delivery date and approval procedure

Hello,
My customer has the next problem. He generate a purchase order after approval procedure was ended. sometimes he wants to update the delivery date field in the row of the purchase order, but he can't do so because approval procedure restrict any changes in row level.
what can be done to solve it.
thank you all

It is always very interesting how people seem to simply accept that the system can not perform basic functions.
In our company, we are facing some critical issues because of this problem. E.g: a purchase order has been approved and teh supplier rings to inform us of supply delays. The procurement officer can not update the delivery date on the purchase order to document the updated delivery day.
This is obviously causing some major drama at the warehouse as they rely on the delivery date of purchase orders to prepare the space required to receive goods.
This is also impacting the work of the procurement manager who will possibly ring the supplier to inform him of delays when relasticly, the company has already been informed.
The approval process in SAP Business One is lacking a basic function of "loop" or simply a system to identify non critical fields which can be updated once the document has been approved (like a date, some remarks etc.).
SAP, it is time to work on a few basic ERP things.

  • Delivery date and sales order creation date

    Dear all
    Can you please explain the relation between delivery date and sales order date. In my case i can create delivery with delivery date as before the sales order date... how it is possible that i can create delivery before the sales order date.??

    Warm Regards

    Hi,
    Sales order date: Date on which the customer officially places an order to your company.
    All the commitment and product allocation counting starts with reference to this date.
    e.g. customer says that the goods are required from 20 days of placing order, then from this date the calculation starts.
    Delivery date: Date on which after the system goes through material availability date, replenishment time, calculates the date on which physically the goods can be delivered to the customer.
    e.g. customer orders 100 qty of material X in 15 days, you will hve to check this delivery date through availability check which can be done in sales order and also delivery.
    payment date is based on this delivery date.
    regards,

  • SRM7 grouping items in RFx despite of multiple delivery date and locations

    Hi Gurus,
    I need to know for a proposal of SRM 7 implementation, WITHOUT  the newest E-sourcing component,  how to solve the following scenario:
    We are gonna use the SRM7 classic scenario where PO is created in ERP and Shopping cart  is created in SRM.
    In Plan-Driven Scenario for Third Party Sales Order, TPO will be created in ERP, Shopping carts, RFx and contract in SRM, PO will be triggered in SRM and created in ERP.
    1.       We have 8 main customers (Sold-To Party), 50 Items, 40 Ship-To (locations) 4 delivery dates for each item to each location.
    2.       Under Each Sold-To Party, there are several Ship-To party (Locations)
    3.       For each location, there could be multiple delivery dates. 
    4.       In the Third Party Sales order (TPO), each material could be repeated several times because of the multiple delivery dates and multiple locations;
    5.       After saving TPO, the system automatically generates Purchase Requisition (PR) in background.
    6.       For each delivery date in TPO, the system creates a separate line in PR. These lines will be converted into line items in shopping carts in SRM.
    7.        Total # of lines in PR would be:
    a.       8 (main customer) X 50 (items) X 40 (locations) X 4 (delivery dates) =  64000 lines in PRs è same number of lines will be created in SRM in Shopping carts (SC)
    8.       In sourcing, we have the option to convert these SCu2019s into RFx. This means we will send 64000 lines for the vendors to give their quotes while we actually have only 50 items.
    My questions:
    1.       In standard SRM, is there a way to create RFx for the total quantities for item? i.e. can the system read all SCu2019s and sum all the qty for each item, regardless, of the locations, customers, delivery dates and create one line item in the RFx. i.e RFx should be send for 50 items only?   If so, which functionality or work-around should I proposed to meet the req.?
    Regards
    Thanks

    Hi Ramki,
    According what you say I assume that this specific requirements in SRM7, without  E- sourcing , CANNOT  be executed in a standard way, it makes sense to me.  Can you firmly confirm it?
    My real worry is that, eventually, in this last version of SRM7 could be already covered, somehowu2026 that why my post. 
    Can you give me some more details when defining the u201CAggregator txnu201D please (u mean txn or txt? And why)? 
    I mean, If I understand good, must be a development which finally summarize the quantities for each material and create the SC/PR and related RFx.
    The PO, created from the RFx, will collect all the delivery date and location from a custom table.  The custom table is a pointer between TPO, delivery date, location and RFx. Am I correct?
    Thanks

  • Material, receipt date and approver

    hi
    material, receipt date and approver not available for fiap? we need to enhance these fields ? or any other possible solutions are there to get it?

    If the fields are available in Extractor, we need to enhance the extractor. This would resolve issue.
    If you want to extract fields from different tables, then you need to build the logic in exits.

  • Planned Delivery Date and Actual Delivery date.

    Hi,
    Is there a report in SAP which shows the delivery date of a PO line item and actual GR posting date from PO history in one report?
    I need to display the planned delivery date and actual delivery date in one report, preferably in columns next to each other.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    To my knowledge there is no such report. You will have to develop this report through ABAP help. You need to pick the planned delivery date from the PO and GR posting date from material document. Both this fields (EEIND & BUDAT) can be viewed in the PO history.
    However, challenge will be when you have multiple delivery dates and receipt posting dates are for part quantities.

  • Req. delivery date and plan order finish date relationship

    Dear Experts,
    I have a question on setting the req. delivery date and plan order finish date relationship. Now, I want the plan order finish date is one day before the req. delivery date, is it possible to set it in configuration? Please advised! Many thanks!
    Regards,
    Matt Yim

    Matt,
    Please use a schedule margin key(SMK) in the material master MPR2 view which has float after production defined as 1day.
    If there are no SMK with that defination then you can define you own in customisation and assign the same in the material master. (SPRO--->Production ->MRP->Planning ->Scheduling and Capacity Parameters->Define Floats).
    Regards,

  • Doubts in statistic Delivery Date and Commited Date in STO PO

    Hi,
    I would like to know statistic delivery date and Commited Delivery date in STO PO.
    2 different type of date is displaying STO PO like;
    1. We are getting statistic delivery as "09.02.9999" and Commited Date as "09.02.2011"
    2. 1. We are getting statistic delivery as "09.02.9999" and Commited Date as "09.02.9999"
    Could you explain, where we are maintiang those date and how it is displaying in PO Delivery schedule line?
    Thanks.
    Dhanush.

    When you create a PO, then the statistical delivery date is set equally to the delivery date.
    the statistical delivery date is automatically changed if you change the delivery date before you have outputted the PO.
    After you outputted the PO, the statistical delivery date has to be changed manually by the user if he changes the delivery date.
    the idea behind this is because of the vendor evaluation, the vendor evaluation is done with the statistical delivery date.
    as long you have not printed/faxed/mailed the PO to your vendor, then the statistical delivery date is changed automatically with a delivery date change.
    But after a transmission you always have to ask yourself, who is responsible for the change in the delivery date.
    If it is you, then you have to change the statistical delivery date to the new delivery date manually, to avoid that the vendor gets valuated against the wrong delivery date. But if it is because the vendor cannot meet the delivery date, then you change the delivery date to have an accuracy for planning, but you keep the old date in the statistical delivery date to valuate the vendor against it.

  • Statistics-relevant delivery date and Committed date in Stock Transport Ord

    Dear Friends,
    Kindly tell me how the System Calculate  the Statistics-relevant delivery date and Committed date in Stock Transport Order.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Jürgen,
    in the Include MM06EFET_ETT_FUELLEN there is following coding:
    IF NOT im_sd_scheduling IS INITIAL.
            PERFORM ett_sd_scheduling USING 'X' 'X' eket *eket
                                      CHANGING eketdata_sd.
    In the FORM ETT_SD_SCHEDULING
    there is the following coding:
    Datum oder Uhrzeit geändert --> Versandterminierungsdaten zurücksetzen
      CLEAR c_eketdata_sd.
    Lieferdatum und Uhrzeit setzen
      c_eketdata_sd-eindt = i_eketn-eindt.
      c_eketdata_sd-uzeit = i_eketn-uzeit.
    So the internal table c_eketdata_sd is cleared and only the delivery date and time are updated, but not the statistc relevant date.
    It seems to me like standard behaviour of SAP.
    Best regards
    Georg

  • SC item: Delivery date and Time Frame

    Hi
    Would like to know how the Delivery Date and TimeFrame fields are defaulted in a SC.
    When a service item is selected from the catalogue the time frame is activated by default. But when i use "Describe Requirement" and assign a service Product category to it I do not get the option for a time frame. Would like to know from where this defualted or if there is any settings for the same.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks!!

    Hi Sheetal,
    in SRM 5.0 the delivery date is defaulted for the non catalog SC in the include LBBP_SC_APPF33 (in our system at the line 66):
    cs_global-deliv_date = sy-datlo.
    cs_global-del_datcat = gc_deliv_day.
    however you have the possibility to override this default date via the BAdI BBP_CHANGE_DEFAULT.
    I hope I could help you with this information.
    Regards,
    Peter
