Functional acknowledgement posting to PO confirmation tab

Hi Gurus,
Can anbybody please  throw some light on the followin scenario.
is it possible to have the functional acknowledgement posted to the confirmation tab of the PO. If so what kind of confirmation control key has to be used and other settings that will make it such that i can see the functional acknowldegement show up on the PO confimations tab.
Thee way we envision to do this is,
1) we send the PO to the vendor
2) vendor sends us back 997 - now this message should some how get posted to PO confriamtion and not just stop at we05 tcode level.
3) next is our order confirmation - which is the 855 frpom the vendor (ORDRSP)
4) then next we will have ASN or 856 etc etc.
steps number 3 and 4 we do not have any problem. we are fine.
we want to have step 2 done .
so at the end of the day when i look at he po confirmations tab, i should see three confirmation control keys.
first one for 997, second one for 855 and third one for 856. please help
Thanks
Anusha

OK. thanks for the reply. here is where we need to go more in detail. This is how i cuurently have assigned.
in external confirmation category node of the menu path in config, i have
AB -order acknowledgement
LA - Inbound delivery.
now in the internal confirmation category node of the menu path, i have assigned
order acknowledgement - AB - order acknowledgement
Shipping notification - LA - inbound delivery.
now in the node of setup confirmation control i have specified AB as the first sequence and LA as  the second sequence.
Now the question is if i want to receive 997 updated on the confirmation tab of the PO, shouldn't i define another key like AB, which is for 997 and then place it first in the sequence of confirmation category. Now what should be the key that i should define or create in external confirmation categories node of the menu path such that it will act like 997.
The business wants 997 updated onthe PO becuase they do not want to rely on the van provider to dtermine that the document was trasnimitted and received succseffully by the vneodr
Thanks

  • Purchase Order-Confirmations Tab-Acknowledgement required

    Hai Friends,
    When ever i create a  P.O,  by default the check box  "CONFIRMATION REQUIRED" is checked  in the confirmations tab in the item details view. I want the check box "unchecked" by default.
    I unchecked the 'Acknowledgement required ' check boxes in Material Master and Vendor Master for which i want to create a P.O
    Still it is coming 'checked' by default in the P.O
    How to fix this issue?
    Thanks

    Please could you check in ME21N
    Personal setting->Default values ->PO item->'Acknowledgment Rwqd' is not ticked and also the 'Always
    Propose' is not SET
    Hope this helps you.

  • Vendor confirmation tab update using idoc ORDERS02

    Hi all,
    This is the first time i am working on idocs.
    I have a requirement where i have to update the vendor confirmation tab in ME22n(Purchase order), I am using IDOC type ORDERS02. and i am using segment E1EDP20 to update quantity,date and reference no. This is working fine.
    Now i need to update 2 more fields in the tab i.e confirmation category(EKES-EBTYP) and Date category of delivery date in vendor confirmation(EKES-LPEIN).But i dint find these fields in segment E1EDP20.
    My question is whether these 2 fields are available in any other segment?
    or should i extend the segment  E1EDP20 ?is it the correct segment to be extended...
    Please provide the inputs....<removed by moderator>

    Hi,
    I have a questions for you and that will help me provide better solution .
    a) Is vendor providing you the Confirmation category or are you expecting to get this information from Vendor ?
    There are many points at which this information can be entered in ME22N.
    1. When the Vendor Acknowledege your PO(If the Acknowledgment required is selected) .
    2. When the Vendor request a change in schedule due to his own priorities .
    3. When the Vendor actually does a goods issue and you are ready to do a Goods receipt.
    In all these cases you update the system with confirmation category .In most cases this is the last phase of PO processing where you do the goods receipt and simultaneoulsy update the confirmation category. You are geting the quantity and the date updated from your schedule lines currently and since Schedules lines does not contain the confirmation category you are not getting it in E1EDP20.Confirmation category in most business scenarios is a mere stastical data rather than concrete data like schedule lines.
    Depending on 1/2/3 you should be approching the solution. 1.If you want to update the confirmation category during the Order acknowledgment Use BAPI_PO_CHANGE and call it from the PI or middleware  or(3) if during the Goods receipt then call the Exit of MIGO to get the PO populated if not exit then write a custom program to see all the Goods receipt and update the PO confirmation category accordingly (Remember this is a statstical data ). Although i highly doubt that the confirmation category will be provided by vendor it is the Buyer who will be determining it and that is why it is not there in the Standard Idoc.I shall not prefer the IDOC extension.
    You can have a discussion with your Functional/Customer to figure out the best approcah. Word of Caution : Analyze before you extend an Idoc .
    Thanks,
    Anjaneya .

  • What is the use of confirmation tab in Purchase order ?

    what is the use of confirmation tab in Purchase order?

    Hello Balaji
    In Purchasing, the term Confirmation is an umbrella term for various kinds of information provided by a vendor to a customer with regard to ordered goods.
    Possible types of confirmation include the following:
    Order acknowledgments
    Loading or transport confirmations
    Shipping notifications. (Note that shipping notifications may also be referred to by a number of other names, including "advice (note)", "advice of dispatch", "ship notice", and "advance(d) shipping notice" ("ASN").)
    A further form of confirmation frequently used in Purchasing is the Inbound Delivery, which is created on the basis of an incoming shipping notification. The shipping notification represents a vendor’s confirmation to a purchasing organization of a delivery date for a certain quantity of ordered materials (or the date of performance of ordered services).
    You can enter incoming vendor confirmations manually. Alternatively, you can receive them via EDI and have them processed automatically.
    When working with vendor confirmations, you have the following options:
    You can enter the order acknowledgment number if you simply wish to provide a basis for monitoring the receipt or non-receipt of acknowledgments.
    You should enter the confirmed quantities and delivery dates if you wish to provide more detailed information in support of the purchasing, inventory management, and materials planning/control functions within your enterprise.

  • Indicator 'M" in the Confirmations Tab of the PO Line item level

    Hello
    I just wanted to know the relevance of the Indicator " M" available in the confirmations tab of the Purchase Order line item level  after the Inbound delivery is posted in the system?
    Whats the impact of this indicator ?
    How is it set auto ?
    Whats the relevance config to set this or not to set this indicator on ?
    How does it Determines whether or not the information from this confirmation category is to be taken into account by materials planning and control. ?

    Hi,
    Indicator: Confirmation is relevant to materials planning: - Determines whether or not the information from this confirmation category is to be taken into account by materials planning and control.
    Examples: - If you mark inbound deliveries as MRP-relevant, but not loading confirmations, quantities and dates from the former will be taken into account in the materials planning process, whereas the latter will only serve as information for the purchasing department.
    In Short, you can see the Inbound Delivery No in MD04 screen if it is marked as MRP relevant.
    This can be configured in SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Confirmations > Set Up Confirmation Control, here select the confirmation control key and double click on "Confirmation sequence" in dialog structure and activate indicator "MRP-relevant"

  • Inbound delivery duplicate in ME23N confirmation tab

    Hi guys,
    I am using ECC6 and SCM/EWM
    When I create an inbound delivery in ECC6 using VL31N and when  material is batch managed If I don't enter a batch number I
    got an incompleteness error message (batch number required) this is normal.  Then I enter a batch number and save.
    In this case the inbound delivery is show twice in ME23N this create a big issue for me because the quantity shown is double and
    it prevents me to reveive remaining quantities.
    Thanks for you help.

    Hi
    In confirmation tab of purchase order, you can see two confirmation , because one is order ackowledgement which needs to be entered manually. The other confirmations comes automatically when inbound delivery is created and transfer orders are confirmed, with goods reciept.
    Now order acknowledgement is enterd manaully, which says that your vendor has recieved purchase order and he will committ you delivery dat on which goods will be delivered.
    Shipping notification confirmation cmoes automatically while doing Goods reciept.
    You can also check that goods reciept is done for all the materials only once in  MMBE transaction.
    I hope this helps

  • Functional acknowledgement by B2B

    Hi
    When I am setting Operational capabilities for remote TP
    I have seen following options
    i) Functional acknowledgement required
    ii) Is acknowledgement handled by Integration B2B
    Can anybody tell how above both differs...?
    Aren't they same...?

    Hi
    I am using "Custom Document Over Internet" business protocol
    In the tutorial I read as
    "Is Functional acknowledgement required ? feature is applicable only for Business protocols that include the EDI X12 or EDI EDIFACT document protocol. It does not apply to business protocols using the Custom Document protocol like UCCnet even though you set to YES."
    so if the above statement is correct then "Is Functional acknowledgement required " optioin is irrelevant to my case
    so obviously according to your update "Is ACK handled by B2B" is relevant only if
    "Is Functional acknowledgement required ? " set to "Yes"
    So in that case I dont need to worry about these options for my business protocol
    Custom Document Over Internet"
    Am I right ?
    Please confirm...

    IN that BAPI , there is no such option to fill the vendor confirmation details.
    Thanks
    Jana.G

    Hi,
    In the FM, BAPI_PO_CREATE, go to export parameters tab, here you will find a parameter name:
    PURCHASEORDER  Like BAPIEKKOC-PO_NUMBER (purchase order number).
    Here you will find the PO confirmation details, as soon as your PO is created , a PO number will be generated.
    In your program,
    IF purchaseorder IS INITIAL.
    CALL FUNCTION 'ME_STATISTICS_TABLES_REFRESH'
      EXPORTING
        i_ebeln = purchaseorder. (Confirm PO Generation).
      EXCEPTIONS
        OTHERS  = 1.
    If your purchase order is initial , then PO number will not be generated.

  • Handling Functional Acknowledgement only in case of transaction exception

    Hi ,
    We have requirement to acknowledge client with only exception transactions. How can we handle this with B2B?
    I have used the Functional Acknowledge concept wherein for Acknowledging EDI transactions, we are using Control D3 message format and moving the acknowledgement message to another JMS Queue.
    But the acknowledgements/Control EDI messages are getting generated for both success as well as error cases and there is no way to distinguish between them. How can I restrict this to only Error cases.
    Basically flow is like EDI Message Format --> JMS Queue --> B2B
    --> (in success case) XML generated in B2B_IN_Queue (no ack required)
    --> (in error case) generate CONTRL D3 message and send it to another JMS Queue.
    Pls help.
