Purchase group in Purchase order from creator not from Material Master

Hi All,
Can you please help me with the next one?
Points rewarded.
In the materialmaster is purchase group 44B entered but
The default purchase group of the buyer is 55C. Is it possible
that the value 55C is automaticaly placed in the PO when
the buyer creates the Purchase order?
At this moment always the default value from Material
master is proposed.
Thank you in advance,
Eric.

Hi,
You have to look at the overall process.
The idea of the Purchasing Group is to indicate which buyer manages that material in that plant.
SO when the system (or a user) generates a requisition for that item at that plant, the system then knows who should convert it etc.
So my question to you would be, "why have you got a default P group in the material master record that is NOT the buyer who manages that item at that plant?"
If several buyers share a list of materials then just use one P group for the "group" of buyers, instead of separate P groups for each buyer.
The system doesn't have the option to automatically overwrite the P group on the requisition because this may be someone just "helping out" the buyer who is busy and so it does not mean that the requisition should be changed to be linked to this other P group.
You already have the field "created by" on the PO and so if you need to report on who created what, then simply use this field instead of P group.
But the P group on the material master (and therefore the requisition) shoudl ALWAYS be the P group that will convert reqs for this item plant combination.

  • Purchasing Group in Purchase Info Record

    Hello Gurus,
    The Purchasing Group in Purchasing Info Record is not read at Purchase Requisitions...
    My operation is as below;
    1. Create Purchasing Requisitions via MRP
    2. Assign Fixed Vendor at MD57 or via Source List ( when source list, Fixed Vendor will be assigned at MRP)
    3. Vendor and sometimes Purchase info rec # are assigned to Purchase Requirement
    But Purchasing Group is not assigned to Purchase Requisition.
    I understood that Price is not assigned at Purchase Requisitions, but nor Purchasing Group is not assigned although it is mandatory field in Purchase Info Record at SAP standard..
    Would you tell me how to read Purchasing Group from Purchasing Info Records into Purchase Requisitions?
    Best Regards,
    AK

    Hello,
    Hm, now it is like this;
    - Actually, One Purchase Organization is fixed for the Plant
    - But since we use the same purchase organization, the organization customization was set as below;
        --  Purchase Organization- Company Code: Blank for the Purchase Organization
        --  Plant - Purchase Organization: one Purchase Organization is set for all the Plants
        --  Plant - default Purchase Organization: blank since this seems to be effective only for consignment etc
    -> And the PR which was created via MRP, there is no Purchase Organization assigned....
    I do not know why...we have Plant in the PR but blank for Purchase Organization..
    And it seems that, if I could assign purchase organization to PR via MRP, Purchase Group should be read into PR..

  • Repeated purchasing groups across purchasing org

    Hi there,
    My client's setup requires the same set of purchasing groups across purchasing organizations. For example:
    Purchasing Org 1:
    PGRP1: SM1
    PGRP2: SM2
    Purchasing Org 2:
    PGRP1: SM1
    PGRP2: SM2
    Reason being this is how it is setup in our R/3 system where all organization shares the same purchasing group.
    How can I configure this in SRM?

    Yes.
    But, for one purchasing organization in SRM, you can have several purchasing groups (and not the reverse)

  • Satellite A105 boot up only from HDD not from Floppy or CD-ROM

    Even after C-MOS Set up, system is booting only from HDD not from Floppy or CD-ROM.
    Is there any sepcific setting to set these controls in Satellite A-105 Model ?

    Hi
    Do you mean an external floppy drive and external CD-ROM drive or a one which is built-in?
    If you want to boot from the internal CD-rom drive so you have 3 possibilities.
    1. Changing the booting order in the BIOS to CD drive
    2. pressing the C button immediately after notebook starting
    3. pressing the F12 button immediately after notebook starting and choosing the CD drive
    I think you should also be sure that you want to boot from the bootable CD.
    If the CD is not bootable you will be not able to boot from the drive.
    PS: If you want to boot from the floppy drive you can press instead of C button the U button

  • I want to reinstall an app fresh install from iTunes not from my iCloud, I go to manage storage I stop backup and delete app by turning green button off, but when I ask to download it again from iTunes it is only downloading it from my iCloud. help?

    I want to reinstall an app fresh install from iTunes not from my iCloud, I go to manage storage I stop backup and delete app by turning green button off, but when I ask to download it again from iTunes it is only downloading it from my iCloud.
    Please assist
    Thx

    You don't really delete app that way, that way to stop backup for that app in icloud.
    You need to delete it from your home screen and then while it still will look like download from icloud - app will start fresh.
    However if app uses any account sign in the stuff that is attached to sign in will come back, so if you do not want to you need to use
    fresh account as well.

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple. We won't know what terms that iTunes Support think that you violated, but the most common reason is probably trying to use another country's store - you are in the same country as you have listed on your iTunes account ?

  • Default Purchasing Group in Purchase Order from user parameters of an user

    Hi Team,
    I have an issue in defaulting the Purchasing Group in PO.
    The Purchase Order is capturing the Purchasing Group of the Contract when the PO is created with reference to a Purchase Requisition which in turn is created with reference to a contract.
    The Customer says he has default Purchasing Group in his user profile - parameter tab which would always overwrite any other Purchasing Group. But now, he is getting the Purchasing Group of the contract in the Purchase Order.
    Team,
    Request you to post your comments/ suggestions for this.

    Dear,
    System is behaving in the correct manner..
    If at all P GRP is maintained in contract....It will be defaulted in the PO.
    If there is no P grp data in the ref doc, then system will check the default parameters maintained in the User profiles.
    Regards

  • Change the purchasing group of shopping cart created in SRM from PR in ECC

    Dear All,
    When a PR is created in ECC and transferred to SRM using program BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER, the purchasing group does not get assigned correctly in the SC created in SRM.
    I tried implementing Badi BBP_BADI_EXTREQ_OUT to resolve the same.
    But it is not working.
    I've passed the value 'O' to the field PROC_GROUP_OT and the puchasing group value to the field PROC_GROUP_ID of the parameter ORG_IMP. But I'm not sure wat value has to be passed to the field PARENT_GUID of the same parameter and  tried passing the PR number once and the item number once to it.
    But none of it is found to be giving the expected results.
    The purchasing group found in the SC in SRM is different from that given in the PR in ECC.
    The code that i've written in the Badi implementation is as follows.
    move transtab_imp to ls_transtab.
    ls_org_imp-PROC_GROUP_OT = 'O'.
    ls_org_imp-proc_group_id = ls_transtab-eban-ekgrp.
    read table item_imp into ls_item_imp with key item_number = ls_transtab-eban-bnfpo.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    ls_org_imp-parent_guid = ls_item_imp-item_guid.
    endif.
    APPEND ls_org_imp to org_imp.
    Can anyone help me to resolve the issue??
    Thanks,

  • Not allow order unit in INFO record if it is not in material master

    Hello there!
    In standar SAP any user can introduce any order unit in the info record, even if it is not maintained in the material master alternative units of meassure. We need to block this...
    The conversion factor is not a problem for us, as we can set it only for display in the customizing, so that the systems brings it automatically from material master
    The idea is to allow as order units only those units of meassure that exist in material master.
    We have been checking if it is possible, but no success...
    Any idea on how to get it? Error messages, user exists, or so on...
    Thanks!!

  • Price should pick from PO not from Contract while doing GR

    Hi All,
    Quantity Contract is created as 1000 with net price Rs 1/-

    GR and Invoice is done against PO.
    Here, GR is happen agains Contract Price as Rs 1/- not PO price.
    Please help me where is the settings to control either PO or Contract Price while posting Goods Receipt.
    Regards,

    Hi Sudhakar,
       During GRN, the price will be taken from material master accounting view.
    Material : Standard Price
    material master price: rs.1
    po price : rs.10
    GRN for 100 quantity : rs.100 in bsx and rs.900 in prd (price difference)
    Material : Moving Average Price
    material master price: rs.1
    po price : rs.10
    GRN for 100 quantity : rs.1000 in BSX and in material master, mov.avg.price will be rs.10

  • Import from DVD (Not copywright material)

    Some of my older work is on dvd and I no longer have it on my hard drive. Is there a way to import video segments (not copywright material) into Final Cut?

    These must be new additions then. I evaluated all three of them last year and only DVDxDV allowed the use of different codecs.
    Now that I think of it, I think Cinimatize might have used the Apple mpeg-2 decoder, which was resizing the horizontal resolution from 720 to 640. That was also a problem I was having trying to convert, and only DVDxDV did it right.
    I guess a few things really do get better with time.

  • DTD lookup from jar, not from web

    I need to have DTD lookup from jar file, as most DTD's are already in the jars, but also do not have internet access to look up dtd.
    I have seen this done once, but cannot replicate it. In a jboss-profiler.jar, when deployed, its log file shows the following:
    Using alternate DTD lookup location : file:///path to jarIf any one knows how to force DTD lookup from the jar, and not Web, that would be great.
    Thanks.

    implement your own EntityResolver that would load the DTDs from your JARs and not from the web.
