Vendor Material No (IDNLF) is blank in PRequest and PO.

Experts:
I updated the vendor Material No for a material in the info records for a vendor.
When I try to create a Purchase Requisition or PO for that particular Material / Vendor, the field Vendor Material No is coming blank.
(In PO when I manually add the Vendor Material No and select the check box 'Info Update' and save, then onwards for that material I am able to see IDNLF getting displayed in PO screen and also in the PO Output.) I am not sure from where PReq and PO reads the IDNLF field.
I checked the following code 1) LMEGUICI5 2)LMEPOF5W - Form MEPO_ITEM_FILL_IDNLF, but I could not find any clues.
Kindly let me know if you know the reason why IDNLF is coming blank.
Thanks

Hi,
First of all, why do you want Vendor Batch no & material no while doing receipt against process order. You can enter the same while doing a GR against Purchase order & same can be tracked using some reports.
As you said, since you are doing a receipt against the Process order, vendor doesn't come in picture. Hence the vendor batch no: or vendor material no: wont be populated as per Std.SAP. You can check for some enhancements/BAdi's in MIGO transaction to populate the same.
Thanks & Regards,

During PO creation vendor material no field should be populated using BADI

Hi,
I have created on PR and using PR I am trying to create PO. But one field vendor material no remains blank when giving vendor at the top vendor field.
So my requirement is the vendor material no field in item overview should be populated regardless filling vendor field at the top.
So this functionality can be achieved by BADI or User exit.
So any one give the proper suggestion to get the value in the vendor material no field while creating PO.
Waiting for quick response.
Best Regards,
Bansi

Hi,
use the badi ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST in that method PROCESS_ITEM....
use GET_DATA method like im_item->get_data.
and modify the value anduse set_data ...
Thanks,

Update vendor material no. from info record to contract

Hello
I'm trying to update the vendor material no. (IDNLF) in the contract from the info record.
I have an updating job of vendor material no. for info records and I want it to update the number also in the contract automatically. (copy from EINA_IDNLF to EKPO_IDNLF)
Is there a way to do it??
Both the info record and the contract already exist.
Thanks

If the info record is already exist and then you are creating contract than it will automatically copy the Ven mat number

Update vendor material no. from inforecord to contract

Hello
I'm trying to update the vendor material no. (IDNLF) in the contract from the info record.
I have an updating job of vendor material no. for info records and I want it to update the number also in the contract automatically. (copy from EINA_IDNLF to EKPO_IDNLF)

Hi
Could you explain waht you mean by updating job do you mean vendor details.
Generally vendor details are global details so once you update vendor master record when you are creating contract or changing contract then it automatically directs to update vendor master record.
hope it helps.

Vendor material number in purchase order

Hello,
I have the following problem :
When i create a purchase order (transaction ME21N), the vendor material number (field IDNLF) will be suggested from the purchasing info record.
It isn't the case, the vendor material number is empty.
I don't understand why.
Do you have an idea ?
Thank you

Hello,
Vendor Material Number; Material number used by the vendor, Usually we saw this field in Info records.
We can see the same field in ME21N in Material data tab ( Item level of the PO), If Vendor and Material combination have correct info record and if suppose user has maintained Vendor Material number field, then while creation of PO for the combination of particular material and vendor system will get Inforecord price in PO and system will populated Vendor Material number in Material data tab of the PO in item level.
Thanks and Regards

Stock analysis based on vendor material number

Hi
Is there any report which can show the total stock of a material with split on vendor material number (I am entering different vendor material numbers upon goods receipt) or any query I can write to get the above result?
The requirement is as follows: I will order an item with name say X and vendor supplies the item with different name say Y. So I am maintaining vendor specific name in vendor material number. Now I want to see the stock X with what quantity of it is Y.
Thanks

Dear Praveen
You could use the following;
Input and Output Conversion of Material Numbers
Use
Like every other part in the SAP system, an inventory-managed manufacturer part has an SAP-specific material number that uniquely identifies it. If this material number is uncommon or unknown to the vendor, you should consider the following (especially in the purchasing process):
·        You can enter a part with its Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) and its External Manufacturer, and not just with its material number. This is possible because of the input conversion of material numbers.
·        The system displays this part with its Manufacturer Part Number and the External Manufacturer in lists and screens. This is possible because of the output conversion of material numbers.
You have to increase the maximum field length for input and output values in the Output Length for Material Numbers field to enter and display the MPN and the manufacturer code in one field
Prerequisites
You have made the following settings in Customizing:
·        You have activated the conversion exit for material numbers.
·        You have maintained a delimiter. The delimiter separates the MPN and the external manufacturer when they are entered or displayed in one field.
·        You have specified a maximum output length for material numbers. This means that the fields for the long material number are scrollable, and the output columns for lists are wider.
You configure and activate the conversion exit for material numbers in Customizing by choosing Logistics - General ® Interchangeability of Parts ® Set Up Conversion Exit for Material Numbers.
Features
Input Conversion
If you have activated the conversion exit, you can enter the relevant MPN instead of the material number in the relevant input fields.
If the MPN is not unique, you enter the external manufacturer in the same field, separating the MPN and the external manufacturer by the delimiter defined in Customizing.
You have defined: as the delimiter.
Enter 45L700W:36121 (Manufacturer Part Number, Delimiter,and External Manufacturer) for the part, instead of material number 1011. If the MPN is unique, you only have to enter 45L700W (the Manufacturer Part Number).
You can now scroll the input field for the material number. This allows you to enter the maximum output length for material numbers, which has also been defined in Customizing.
Input conversion gives you an alternate and additional input option. You can still enter the ERP material number to identify a part.
The system determines the correct material number from your input, and passes it to the program logic. The system handles your input as follows:
·        If your entry contains the delimiter, the system splits the entry at the delimiter, interprets both parts of the entry as the Manufacturer Part Number and the External Manufacturer respectively, and searches for a part corresponding to these entries
·        If your entry does not contain a delimiter, the system interprets your entry as an (ERP) material number, and searches for the corresponding part in the material master. If this is unsuccessful, the system interprets your entry as an MPN, and searches for the corresponding part.
If the system cannot determine a part clearly, or the search is unsuccessful, it issues an error message.
Value Range for MPN on the Selection Screen
The system converts the MPN into a material number internally.
To ensure that the system correctly interprets the value range for an MPN that is entered as selection criteria, when the conversion exit is activated, the system provides both the material number and the MPN as selection criteria in the selection screen.
Output Conversion
If the conversion exit is activated, the output conversion ensures that the system displays the MPN and the external manufacturer on screens and in lists, separated by the delimiter in the field or column that usually displays the ERP material number.
If the Output Length for Material Numbers field in Customizing is not long enough to display both the MPN and the external manufacturer, the system displays the MPN, if it is unique.
If the MPN is not unique or the output length too short, the system displays the ERP material number.
The system displays parts with the output length defined in Customizing. In addition:
·        You can scroll the output field for the material number on screens.
·        The system adjusts the layout of lists to the output length.
List Formatting
If you use the inventory-managed MPN, you have to change the list formatting as follows:
·        Variable length of the material number in reports
In cases of the automatic conversion of the material number into an MPN and external manufacturer, the system takes account of the Output Length for Material Numbers field (defined in Customizing) when it structures the lists for selected reports. This ensures that columns are aligned, line breaks are correct, and the lists can be read.
·        Adding a field for the external manufacturer
The external manufacturer should also be displayed in lists because the MPN, into which the material number is automatically converted, is not always unique.
In Customizing, you have defined whether the external manufacturer should be displayed with the MPN. The system adds the field for the external manufacturer immediately after the field for the MPN in lists and on the screen.
You can display the external manufacturer with or without an active conversion exit.
·        Sorting by MPN, not by material number
You can sort some lists by material number.
You can sort by MPN in cases where the MPN is displayed instead of the material number.
with kind regards
Sundar

While creating po, the vendor material no should updated in PIR.

hi all,
i am facing one issue
the issue is, while creating po, we can search the material no according to vendor material no, but when we change the vendor material no in po item details in material tab and save the PO, that is updated in the PIR, if we tick the box(info update), that means the new no is update in PIR,
but suppose i entered the wrong no, so i want to edit that field again. but the new assigned no is not updating the PIR though i have checked the check box(info update)
that means, PIR is updating once but not second time. what is the possible solution.
regards,
susanta

One vendor is providing service & material to the same Pur Org
Is it anyway to handle with only one vendor code for service & material procurement in same vendor account group with only one pricing procedure(calculation schema)?

Yes, you can do it. There shouldn't be any issue

Hi,
Yes its possible.
you can use the same calculation schema for both so that with one vendor you can handle both material as well as service purchase.
Please revert if you face any difficulties.

Payment Term in PO based on Vendor / Material / Plant Combination

Hi,
The payment terms in Purchase Order are defaulted from the payment terms maintained in Vendor Master. Hence, if we order any material on vendor, then also, the same payment term gets copied to Purchase Order.
We have set different Payment Terms with Vendor based on the material which we purchase from him. For example - For some materials, we have set payment terms as 30 Days Credit & for other materials, we have set payment terms as 60 Days Credit.
Presently the concerned buyers are changing the conditions manually while creating the purchase order. We would like to have this defaulted in the purchase order based on Vendor / Material / Plant combination.
Can we use 'Condition Group' in Purchasing Info Record for this purpose?
If yes, how can we default the payment term from Purchasing Info Record to Purchase Order?
Regards,
Prashant Kolhatkar

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
In this case -
1) I create the info record manually for vendor / material / plant combination.
2) Create PO for this combination.
3) After PO is created, then the payment term can be maintained in Info Record.
Is this correct?
If so, then where can we maintain this Payment Term in Purchasing Info Record?
If maintained, then for further POs, should this get copied from the Info Record instead of Vendor Master?

Prashant

Vendor/Material report

Hi, All,
In SAP, does the Vendor/Material have any attribute field that would allow us to report on a characteristic/value? If there is a marketing program that is linked with a vendor/material, is there a way to classify that within the vendor/material info record?
Thanks

Hello,
You may look at the transactions ME1M and ME1L which will suit your requirements.
