Account Assignment in Purchase Requistion/Order

Hi All,
Could you please help us where to configure error message if account assignment in purchase requisition or order does not align with the configuration of G/L field status group?
Scenario during PR/PO creation:
1. Account assignment is F(CC and IO required) and G/L field status group is CC required only - the system trigger an error message which is correct.
2. But if account assignment is K(CC required only) and G/L field status group is CC and IO required - the system does not trigger any error message.
Is there a way so PR/PO creation won't proceed if account assignment is incorrect vs G/L FSG?
Thank you.
Jesielle

Jesielle,
The system does trigger a message in both PO and PR based on the field status group in the GL account. The only thing you need to do is change the status of the field in OME9 to anything other than 'hidden'.
Please see the screenshots below, maybe they'll help you:

Purchase order creation - Account assignment group C (Sales Order)

Hello Gurus
During the purchase order creation in Me21N, account assignment category C (sales order) is available. In which scenario we will use it. When I assign C system is asking for a GL account. Why system needs a GL account, and how the posting will be at the time of goods receipt. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,
Creation of Purchase Order with t.code: ME21N with account assignment category C (sales order) is used for Time and Material Expenses with third party scenario and you need to enter sales order number and respective G/L account . In this scenario 1st a sales order is created with a material( material created DIEN material type) & then purchase order created with respect to sales order.
Here you provide service to your customer and this service you procure from your vendor, you just play middle role for providing and getting service.Standard DIEN material type designed for Sales usage only, so you create sales order for service material.Service master is used to get service from vendor with item category D with proper account assignment category as C
Example:
Material type DIEN is used for when you offer "SERVICE" to your customer.( The steps are (VA01,VF01,VF04,F-28), If u used HR module( you can used with sales order with t.codes are: CAT2,CATS_APPR_LITE,CAT7,PR05,PRRW,PRFI)
Service Master records(AC01)ESM is used when you procure "SERVICE" from your vendor.( Steps are: ME21N with Item Cat. "D" with Acc. ***. Cat. "C", ML81N,MIRO & F-53).

How to make default account assignment category in planned order?

Scneario Description:
1. Sales order for a configurable parent item is created in ERP & order BOM is changed & transferred to APO. In APO MRP run takes place for that parent item, which creates a planned order with account assignment category "M" (M:Individual Customer w/o KD-CO.
2. Now based on the dependant requirement generated for parent item, MRP takes place for one of the child item in ERP & purchase requisition gets created for child item.
Question:
1. Can anybody help me how i can make default account assignment as "F" (F:Order) in the planned order of parent item?
2. PR created for child item also has default account assignment category as "M". we wish to change that to "F".
Thanks & best regards
Hemchandra & Sandeep Mandhana

Hi V. Suresh,
The account assignment category maintained in the requirement class for parent item is 'M'.
No account assignment category maintained has been maintained in the requirement class Semi-finished component (this component is sent for subcontracting).
The business process is as follows:
1. Create Sales Order for Parent say ME_PARENT.
2. Order BOM for ME_PARENT is created and subsequently cifed to APO.
3. PP/DS heuristic is run for ME_PARENT.
4. MRP for component ME_COMP is run in ERP.
It can be seen that purchase requistion for ME_COMP has a/c assgn category as 'M'. It seems that the ME_COMP has inherited 'M' from ME_PARENT.
We would like to have no a/c assgn category for ME_COMP.
Any pointers?
Regards,
Sandeep

About account assignment group in Sales Order.

Hi gurus,
I am working in SD for the first time and I am facing below problem
1. Material code was created with account assignment group (MVKE-KTGRM) as blank (Sales Org 2 view)
2. Later this material was entered in Sales Order.
3. Subsequently Sales Order BOM and Production Order were made against this material.
4. We maintained account assignment group in material master after creation of Sales order but account assignment group was not updated in Sales Order.
5. Now the field is gray out or non-editable is there any way by which we can maintain account assignment group in the sales order.
6. As the field is non editable we are unable to do Invoice by VF01.
Is there any way by which we can maintain account assignment group in Sales Order??
Edited by: Deepak Kulkarni on Mar 6, 2012 2:09 PM

Hi
As you have mentioned that you have maintained the acct assignment grp in the material master after the order was created, it will not appear in the sales order item already created and it will only reflect in new orders and changes to existing orders for that material.
Proposed solution:
If it is order related billing that you are doing, then goto VA02 and delete and re-enter the item with same material and qty.
The account assignment group will appear.
If the item is delivery related and if the delivery has already been created but PGi not done, then delete the delivery and then delete the item in the sales order and re-enter the item as told above. If PGI also done, then reverse the PGI, delete the delivery and re-enter as suggestd in above scenarios.
The account assignment group will appear in the billing document document tab in item level.

Account assignment in Purchase Order

Hi,
In my project Purchase orders are having account assignment N network. This is going to be implemented. Previously my client used budgeting scenario with Internal Order but now Investment Program will be used with WBS budgeting.
The problem is for a particular PO document type "Capital PO" when I am assigning N as Ac *** Type then it is automatically changed to F by default and asking for Internal order which is a mandatory field.
To remove this problem in SPRO I changed the mandatory field CO/PP order to OPTIONAL for Acc *** Category F and then the problem got partially resolved. I can now assign a Network activity to the PO. But before saving the N which was entered as the acc *** type in the line items are automatically changing to F.
I have tried out several ways but not found a problem. Somebody may have an idea of why its happening?
Is there some user exit for this particular document type is this issue to be solved with the help of an ABAP er. Please guide me.
Suman

Hi Suman,
Please maintain the standard settings :
1.Account Assgmt Gen N
2.AcctAsstCat Projects Q.
a)So while assigning the material component to Network Activity for stock Item (L) System will create a PR on the basis of following :
Acctasstcat Q
Special stock Q
Valuation M
Consumption P
Movement type 281.
b)While assiging Nonstock item to activity the following will be the case:
Acctasstcat N
Consumtion V
Movement type 281
So system will create PR in both cases but while receiving goods in MIGO ,for nonstock the activity will be debited and in case of stock inventory will be debited and stock will be received as project stock Q.

Muzamil

Multiple Account Assignment In Purchase Order

I've found something about multiple account assingment. If i have multiple assignment i can't have valued receipt, but if i desable the flag i have no message. Can I set a material to force to enable GR indicator and force to disable GR indicator?

When you are having the multiple account assignment, then the system will force you to have GR-non valuated indicator being flagged which results in the fact there is not any FI document at GR posting stage and this is the standard feature of SAP.
As for second part No, not at all. The disability of GR indicator can be set in OME9 with account assignment category.

Account Assignment category in Limit order confirmations in SRM 4.0

Hello
We are using SRM 4.0 in extended classic scenario.
When entering the confirmations for limit orders in SRM, users add the limit/ service items.
After SP14 recently, the " account assignment category" is not set in the added lines , same as the
PO .
Rather the account assignment category is the first one from the available list.
Any suggestions / notes for this issue?
Regards
Kedar

Hi,
1. In customising (SPRO) in R/3 you need to create the corrpesponding account assignment category with the relevant fields specified.
2. In customising (SPRO) in SRM you need to create the new account assignment category and specify it as active plus the backend system reference. You can then assign the cost assignment types that are applicable and those that are mandatory.
I haven't got access to a system at the minute so can't give you the menu paths in customising but for R/3 it is under Materials Management > Purchasing and then look for Account Assignment. For SRM it is in Cross Application Components and then look for Account Assignment.

Invalid account assignment category for Service order

Hi Experts,
We upgrade in ECC. I suppose this topic is linked to this one. See more detail below.
On a repairing flow, central alerts by a complaint from customer. Operator creates a Repair request, next receive the broken machine (VRRE + VL02N). A inspection lot is automatically generated. When operator takes Usage decision, customizing allow to create a Service order according to the right UD code.
My issue is on this place. When operator take the usage decision, SAP displays the error message "Invalid account assignment category".
Data in standard customizing are missing in "Define account assignment cat. and document type for purchase requisitions". Only "Acct. Assgmnt Cat. Gen." is filled with "F" value (Order). 3 other are blank. If I tryed to save, SAP rejected and asked for values.
If I check in SAP help, SAP indicates that we don't have to change these values if new types of categorie are not customized. Also SAP detailled the right values. What is strange is that the flow is running without these values in production. Test in development environnement block the flow and the creation of the Service order.
Have you already heard some strange behavior like this one ?
Moreover if you have more detail on the impact on this customizing, I'm very interesting, and also the good way to solve this issue will be great.
Thanks a lot for your precious help.

G/L account no in purchase requisition/order

Dear all,
I have a little problem. During the creation of a purchase order a wrong G/L account is automatically assigned. With the account assignment category "Q", SAP determines automatically the G/L account 30000 and disables this field. However the account 60000 should be determined. This account is yet determined in the purchase requisition and copied to the purchase order.
I've been searching for a while and in my view, it has something to do with the account assignment. I tried the transaction OBYC, but I don't think I can change the account there.
Could someone guide me through this problem?
Kind regards,
Samuel

Dear Pankaj Singh,
In OBYC transaction GBB I retrieved following information:
0001/VBR/3000/609000/609000.
The material has valuation class 3000.
If I understand well, SAP should assign 609000 in the purchase order? But why assigns the system 3000000?
What do you mean with the valuation modifier VKP?
Kind Regards,
Samuel

An incorrect default value of account assignment group in sales order

I created a new sales order; however, the default value for account assignment group is not the same value maintained in customer master.
Any idea how could this happen?

have you checked user exit MV45AFZZ? Maybe there is a coding inside, changing the default value when creating a new sales order.
