Novated Purchase orders cannot be changed error

Hi Experts,
while trying to edit the PO we are getting an error as " Novated Purchase orders cannot be changed" . I am confused that which field is used to differentiate the normal PO to that of novated PO at portal level. Please let us know why this error occurs and how can we solve the issue ?
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Aishwarya.M

Hello Aishwarya ,
A Novation is agreement of parties usually done in conjunction with an assignment where upon the assignment there is now a new agreement between the original party whose contract was assigned and the party to whom the contract was assigned that in effect extinguishes (cancels) the old agreement and relieves the assigning party of liability under the contract.
For example if A and B have a contract and there is an assignment and novation of that contract by B to C, the contract would now be between A and C and B would no longer be liable to A under the contract as the “novation” extinguishes their liability.
If you wanted to prevent a novation you might include something like the following:
“This contract shall be binding on the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except in the instance of an assignment or transfer by Buyer of all or any portion of this agreement, the assigning party shall remain liable for the performance of any assigned or transferred obligations hereunder.
The requirements for a novation may vary by jurisdiction. For example in New York for there to be a novation it must specifically say it is a novation. In assignment consent letters Suppliers may try to create a novation by the words they use where the language in affect would say that Buyer may only look to the new entity going forward. Please check with the PO which supplier is being used and also check is there any third party involvement in that PO.
Thanks

The purchase order cannot be created on Hold

Hello gurus,
I have a doubt, when I want to create a purchase order (transaction ME21N) adopting a purchase requisition, the button "Hold" dissapear.
Any reason why the button "Hold" is missing when adopt the purchase requisition to the purchase order?
I need to save the purchase order on Hold after the adopting, but, I cannot find the button.
Could you help me please a.s.a.p.?
Regards,
Sandra Palomo

See the info below:
Deactivate 'Hold' Function for Enjoy Purchase Order
Use
Application component: MM-PUR-PO-GUI
Function group: MEPO
The Business Add-In (BAdI) ME_HOLD_PO enables you to specify whether an
     Enjoy purchase order can be put on hold or whether this function is to be
     suppressed in accordance with your requirements.
In the standard system, this function is generally offered during the
     creation of an Enjoy purchase order (transaction ME21N) and when a PO
     that is on hold is changed (transaction ME22N).
Note
Enjoy purchase orders cannot be put on hold if any of the following
     criteria apply:
     o The PO contains service items
     o The PO contains "third-party" items
     o Commitment errors are involved
     o Subsequent (period-end volume rebate) settlement is involved
Standard settings
     o In the standard system the Business Add-In is not active.
     o The BAdI is not filter-dependent.
     o The BAdI cannot be used multiple times.
Example
You will find an example implementation under Goto -> Code Example.
In this example, the following behavior is defined:
In the case of stock transfers within a company code, the "Hold" function
     is generally inactive. If an application object contains an error of any
     kind, the function is likewise inactive.

"All items from purchase order cannot be invoiced"

Hello, 
 
I'm on a SRM 7.0 SP 5 system (ext-classic scenario). Here i try to create an invoice with reference to a Purchase Order, but none of my Purchase Orders can be used for reference. I get the following warning message 'All items from purchase order cannot be invoiced'. 
 
- Created via POWL (create with reference -> invoice/credit memo) i always get the warning message 'All items from purchase order cannot be invoiced'. And no items are converted / can be used for invoicing. Additionally when i use the search option 'find purchase order' within the create invoice transaction i can not find any purchase order to use, it shows 'There is no search result' while there are plenty purchase orders marked with 'invoice expected'. 
 
I am able to create invoices without reference. 
 
I tried vendors set up only for 'invoice expected' and 'GR', 'invoice expected' / 'GR' / 'GR-based-IV' and 'invoice expected' only none of them works, indicators set on vendor master are correctly used on the created purchase order. Outputting PO doesn't make any difference neither. 

I have not set up the following (do i need to?): 
- Deactivated the 'CRME' transaction type, no Credit Memo transaction type has been configured/is active. 
- I have not defined the 'INV' transaction type as a follow-on document for my ECPO transaction type within the define transaction type transaction. 
- Tollerances 
 
edit -> i've already searched thorougly for SAP notes but no note seems to cover this particular problem. 
 
Help is very much appreciated

Solved! Added SYS attribute for back-end system in organisational scheme.

Purchase Order Print Report Compilation Error

Couldn't find how to copy the PO layout over using copy express.
I did compare the RDOC fields for POR20002 in both databases and they are Identical.
In Crystal Reports, I did a formula search for N_Decimal_Places and it found nothing. Then I did a search for 'length' in all formulas and it finds length in N_Decimal_Places. When I double click on N_Decimal_Places it clears the screen and never shows the formula. This happens in both layouts for my test database and SBODemoUS.
Again, SBODemoUS works correctly and AAA_TEST give the error.

Purchase order IDoc PORDCH generation error

Hi all,
I have made all the settings in the partner profiles to trigger PORDCH IDoc when I create or change purchase order through output message type.
But the error it gives in WE05 is the following:
The segment E1EDK01 does not occur at the current level of the basic type PORDCR01 (extension ).
This error can have several reasons:
The segment E1EDK01 is assigned to a group whose header segment does not occur.
The segment E1EDK01 does not exist in the syntax description of the basic type PORDCR01 (extension ).
The sequence of segments in the group in which the segment appears is incorrect.
Previous errors ('mandatory' segment or group missing) may be due to this error.
Since the generated IDoc is of ORDERS05 structure this is giving an error.
Can anybody help me out with this.

Jwalith
It seems, you are using wrong Process Code/Inbound Function Module .... Create new process code or modify your Z-Process Code to link it to function module IDOC_INPUT_PORDCH, which is valid for Message Type PORDCH.
This should solve the problem.

Purchase order cannot be created

Hi friends...
I am new to SRM and now in learning problem. I am trying to observer and study a case and I need opinions from experts out there.
I appreciate the value u spend in responding me.
Here is the problem :
Purchaser A tried to create purchase order with SC xxxxx, he received error message "Enter exactly one partner of type Vendor " . SC has 2 lines, both have the same vendors but the message is displayed only for item 1.
What I should I do to avoid/solve this problem.

Hi,
it seems that a vendor was added twice to the document. It is possible that a vendor is added within the CHANGE BAdI (BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI).
Ask the user to hold the SC.
Check the cart with transaction BBP_PD. Enter the SC no. in field object_id and click on the header data in the output list.
Check the partner entries if there is more than 1 vendor assigned.
Regards
Dennis

Purchase order discount per row error

Dear all,
I have a client who gets the following error when trying to post an Purchase order:
"[Discount % per row] [Line 3], You are not permitted to perform this action"
The purchase order is a service order and no accounts have been selected. Also the discount field is not visible or active on the purchase order. The user is not authorized to add discounts but he has not done so in the first place. What could the problem be?
Regards,
Anthony Njagi

Hai!
Even if Discount field is not active in Row Level, for service Type Documents when i change Total value more than once that is calculating the difference to Discount.
Example:
First i entered Total as INR1000
I found that is wrong and changed to INR1200
The Difference between INR1000 and INR1200 will go to Discount.
To avoid this, ask user to type the amount in Unit Price Column instead of Total Column.

Purchase Order - Release Startegies; Inconsistency error

Dear all,
I am changing our release startegy for the purchase orders. Therfore I added two characteristics:
- Plant (Table EKKO and Field WERKS)
- Material Number
The problem is that I get the following error message:
"Inconsistent characteristic value assignment"
I only added the plant value so I do not understand why I get an inconsistency?!
In the next step I also want to integrate the characteristic "materialnumber". Is it possible to define the value somehting like all values without 950*?
Can anybody help me with this?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Markus Sigl

Dear Sasi,
I checked the database and all parts of the strategy. There should be no inconsitency (all the codes. I still could not solve this problem, groups and so on should be ok).
Have you got another idea?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Markus
Hi
I think this may be because of inconsistency caused with tables. Kindly check all the tables related to release strategy and the entries.tables T16FK, T16FV, T16FS, T16FC and T16FG
If you change any release strategy with fout following the sequence, the inconsistency in table will be created.
Follow the sequence below for deletion or changes
1. Delete the release strategies
2. Delete the release indicators
3. Delete the release codes
4. Delete the release group
5. Delete the class
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sasi

Purchase order shipping data change exit in ME59N

Hi Experts,
While creating Purchase Order from purchase requisition I need to change the value in field unloading point in shipping tab of Purchase order item. I am coding in exit 'EXIT_SAPMM06E_013' and changing the value of XEKPV-ABLAD. Still the value is not updated in the Purchase Order. Please advise.

Hi,
You can update the delivery date , by an customer program in back ground.
This should be triggered for every PGI done with count in PO delivery date.
This delivery date should be changed before the shipment is triggered.
Ask your ABAPER to develop an custom program , based on input logic how to change the delivery date in PO.
He will develop the program as per your input given to him.

Unable to Delete PO (Purchase Order) due to changed Invoiced value. Helppp.

If you create a service entry sheet, process the service entry
approval,post an invoice for an amount greater than the Service entry
then, cancel
the entry sheet and add a new service specification (i.e. same entry
sheet), the following problem occur:
1. You can no longer cancel the invoice if the services of the entry
sheet are deleted.
2. After changing the entry sheet and renewed acceptance of services
performed, a posting takes place where the value differs from the
value of the entry sheet.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Service Purchase Order of $2,000.00
2. Create a Service Entry against the Purchase Order for $2,000.00
3. Approve Service Entry against the Purchase Order for $2,000.00
a/c postings Dr Expense $2,000.00
                     Cr GR/IR $2,000.00
4. Create an Invoice against the Service Purchase Order for $5,000.00
a/c postings Dr Expense $3,000.00
                    Dr GR/IR $2,000.00
                    Cr Vendor $5,000.00
5. Revoke the Service Entry
a/c postings Dr GR/IR $5,000.00
                    Cr Expense $5,000.00
I am expecting the Reversal of the Service Entry figure is $2,000.00, but instead, the Reversal of the Service Entry figure is $5,000.00. Why is that so? I need to be able to Reverse/Delete the PO.

Purchase order creation : internal pricing error

Hi,
While creating a purchase order, i am getting an error 'internal pricing error'. Message type : V1806
This is basically for creating an Invoicing plan !
Let me know in case of any clue.

Hi
is it this error
Internal pricing error
Message no. V1 806
Diagnosis
The program link between tables KOMT1 and XKOMV using the XKOMV-IX_KOMT1 field no longer works in the pricing program SAPLV61A. This could be because the PRICING_REFRESH function module has been called up from another function module, even though you did not require it.
