"order as direct material" indicator is not coming in Shopping Cart.

Hi Experts,
I am trying to perform the employee self service procurement for a direct material. I have performed the below config and attribute maintenance.
1. Defined a new transaction type and new number range for local PO in SRM Config
2. In R/3 Back-End, for the same document type, I have ensured that number range is present
3. For my Root Organization, I have added "DP_PROC_TY" for "Transaction Type: Create PO manually" maintained with my above transaction type defined
4. I have selected my local P Group and added 001 Product Category with R/3 Back-end system as source system in "Responsibility" tab
After that I have started created Shopping Cart expecting to find "Order as Direct Material" indicator in Shopping Cart details.
But I could not be able to see that indicator in Shopping Cart. What I see is Product Category 001 but different P Group is coming.
Is this the reason, what I am missing. Please help.
Thanks & Regards

Removing the button 'Order as Direct Material'

Hi,
I have to remove the button called 'Order as Direct Material' in shopping cart in item details of each material.
I used the BAdI BBP_UI_CONTROL_BADI. But when I am creating the shopping cart, the browser is not calling the badi. Can anyone tell me how to hide the field in SC?
Thanks in Advance.

Nowsath

Hi,
For 'Order as Direct Material' button to be disabled ,use the BADI "BBP_DP_PROD_CHK_BADI".
In method PRODUCT_CHECK, just clear EV_DP_FLAG.

Procure item for inventory in Shopping cart as Order as Direct Material

Hello Experts,
When i procure a an item for inventory click u201COrder as Direct Materialu201D and then the system would not ask for an account assignment,
1.) where i can do this setting
2.) the actual problem am facing is "SC is created but PO goes to status Saved and when i see PO i can see the error and this is "Backend error : enter account assignment category".
Please let me know on this....i hope this will also be a great learning for me towards a journey of become masters in SRM like all of you
Smriti

yes. for order as direct account assignment folder disappear.
Ordering a direct material means ordering a product that will be received into stock.
You have to press the Order as Direct Material button in the item detail view.
Selecting Order as Direct Material replaces the goods recipient with the plant you
are ordering for and removes the Account Assignment information. The plants and
storage locations are defined in the organizational structure in the extended attributes
Locations and Storage Locations. After ordering the material as a direct material, you
cannot change back to indirect; so, in case of a mistake, you have to delete this item.
If you have a valid and definite source of supply, such as a contract, this will be used.
Items without a source of supply will have to be completed by the purchaser in
sourcing transaction or in the worklist of incomplete purchase orders. The complete
purchase order will then be replicated to the back end system. Changes to the purchase
order is only possible in Enterprise Buyer, which is the leading system for this process.
Any changes made in Enterprise Buyer are transferred to the back end.

Disable 'Direct Material' Button

Hello SRM-gurus,
is there a way to disable the 'Order as direct material'-button which appears under 'Internal products / Services' --> basic settings in SRM shopping-cart transaction?
I found badi BBP_DP_PROD_CHK_BADI and Parameter EV_DP_FLAG, but can't set it inactive despite being in change-mode. The only thing I could do is delete the whole line, so that there's only the line IS_PRODUCT left.
It it possible to delete the whole entry EV_DP_FLAG to not get displayed the button any more or would this be fatal?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Henning

Hi,
What do you mean by "can't set it inactive despite being in change-mode"???You just need to create an active implementation of the badi BBP_DP_PROD_CHK_BADI in trascn SE19 and in the method PRODUCT_CHECK ,just write the foll line:
EV_DP_POSSIBLE = ' '.
Please take help of an ABAPER for implementing the BADI.You just need to implement this BADI to hide the ORDER AS DIRECT MATERIAL button!

Order as Direct Material Changes the Delivery Address

Hello,
We have encountered an odd behavior when the Order as Direct Material button is pressed. The delivery address that previously displayed is changed to the plant address.
Is this normal? Can it be de-activated so that is does not changes the address?
Regards, Dean

Muthu,
Thanks for the reply.. been busy...Is there a way to change this behavior with BADIs, etc? I think I can do it BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI. However, I thought there might be a more elegant way .

Why account assignment is not deleted when push "Order as Direct Material"?

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem with shopping carts (SC) of stock items:
1.- I add 5 items.
2.- I push "Order as Direct Material" button for 3 items only.
3.- I push "Hold" button to set SC with held status.
4.- I modify the SC and push "Order as Direct Material" button for 2 items missing.
5.- I order the SC.
One of the effects that it has the "Order as Direct Material" button is that it deletes the account assignment because the items will use to create a PO stock.
But for the last 2 items (number 4.-) the account assignment is not deleted.
This is causing that the PO's have error: "Invalid tax code".
Somebody can say to me why is not deleting the account assignment for items previously hold?
My systems are:
SRM 4.0 (SRM_SERVER 500) level 8
R/3 4.7 (SAP_APPL 470) level 24

check item data what is stored here DP ? if account assignment not cleared it could be a bug. but you need to convince them to get a correction note.

Error in Order as direct material with PPS activated

Hi,
Using SRM 7.0, EHP-1 activated PPS. Before activating PPS direct material scenario worked fine. After activating the PPS I getting the following error.
No account assignment exists; enter an account assignment.
Created new account assignment category and assigned that in u201CSet Default Account Assignment Category for Direct Materialu201D. Even after that also I am getting the above error. Please suggest where I am doing mistake. Only for down payments purposes we activated the PPS. Now SRM system is only working for purchase orders with account assignment and getting the above error immediately after pressing on order as direct material. I am not able to transfer Purchase requisitions also. In SLG1 getting the above error.
Please suggest what to do.

Order as Direct material Tab activation

Hi Guys,
I select some materials from catalog and transfer them to SRM system and some materials I find a tab with ORDER AS DIRECT material. where as for some material I do not find, when I click on the Order as direct material this goes into a stock item.
So in order to activate this for some Vendor catalogues what are specific settings I need to follow.
Please suggest.
This is extended classic scenario and Version 5.0
Thanks for your replies
Regards
Srujank

Hi Srujank,
"order as direct material' will be available only for Product of type 'Material'. It is not available in case of product type 'Service'. Please, check if your product is of type material or not.

Order as Direct material with result of reservation document

Hi All,
Currently, the client requirement is to active the "Direct Material" button during the shopping cart creation to differentiate between Direct and Indirect material purchase.
As I understand to active the button, we need to active "Extended Classic Scenario" to have "Direct Material" button. But they would like to have reservation document to be created after Shopping cart is approved and this is conflict with setting as only classic scenario to allow reservation document to be created.
Please share your idea.
This is my thought.
(1) Ext Classic with "Direct Material" button and use badi to change the document to reservation? Which Badi?
(2) Stay with Classic and control certain product category to have always resevervation document.
Rgds,
Paul

The 'order as direct material' is active by default only.
You don't need to activate ECS for this.
You can control the same by BBP_DP_PROD_CHK_BADI.
Only thing whenever you will create a SC for direct matl,
SRM will try to create the follow-on locally only & not in ECC.
So creating reservation via SC direct matl line item will not be easy.
May be you can try to control the follow field
BBP_PDIGP-SUBTYPE
in BBP_DOC_SAVE_BADI
& then use BADI BBP_CREATE_BE_RQ_NEW
2. this option would be easy if business allows you reservarion for certain matl grps

Functionality "Order as Direct Material"

Hi All,
What exactly is the business need for the check box "Order as Direct Material"? (A check box in ?Shopping Cart and in PO of Item details)
I know that when you order as a direct material in SRM EBP, the account assignments disappear and
the system asks for Storage location and plant (and the product behaves as an extend classic scenario product)
But my doubt is for what product category you use this check box "O A D M"? If the material / prod category I enter in SC or in PO is already a direct material, then there is no point in flagging the check box. If I am ordering a indirect material, there is no need to order it as a direct material.
It will be very helpful if you could give the circumstances to use this check box and a business scenario
will help to clarify that.
Also I am keen to know how the R/3 sytem picks up the data from SRM and goes for the posting of the material.
Thanks in advance.
Vardhan

Hi,
I agree with David.
When we click this order as direct material it will create a PO for stocks. In other words, it is like creating a PO in the backend for a material with material master. The accounting takes place by the material master valuation class. Only difference here is the document type which is not changeable in R3 backend.
When we procure without this then, it is like creating the same PO with the account assignment K in the backend for which it is mandatory to give a cost centre and hence the G/L account. So final accounting is not routed through material master any more and you can have stocks or you can skip based on the material type you use in this case.
In simple classic scenario we have the flexibility of either procuring for costcenter without clicking on the OADM button or for stocks by clicking this(in this case the R3 PO is not changeable)
So the business requirement if a client want to procure for stocks from SRM then this is useful, as he can do GR and IR in the backend just like R3 scenario. They can differentiate this by the document type.
Best regards,
Sridhar.

Order as direct material

Hi All,
During shopping cart creation in SRM I checked the "order as direct material" checkbox , and all the data from account information is disappeared. Is there is any way to retain same default account information even after checking this checkbox?.
Please guide me in this regard.
Thank you,
Krishna

thats is standard.
when you order as direct PO will be created in SRM and account assignment will be cleared .
during GR and Invoice accounts will be posted in inventory GL account upon the material master account view
when you not order as direct , it post cost center expensive GL account upon the configuration.
PPS SCENARIO
Note 1293572 - Account assignment is cleared in case of direct material
When a material in purchase order is ordered as direct material, then default account assignement is cleared even though the customizing for accounting is maintained for the direct material in case of government procurement.

Order as direct material in catalog, with contract

Hi,
We are using SRM 5.5 and we have an issue concerning direct materials in a SC.
In the shopping cart via a catalog, when you choose "Order as direct material" function for an item on the 'Basic data' detail screen, the information about the contract assigned to that item disapear.
This situation doen't happen when we do a SC with reference to a contract, but without being in catalog.
Do you have any idea about the reason of this behaviour?
Many thanks,
Andreia Nascimento
