Agreement field in Source List-

Dear Experts,
What is the importance of agreement field in Source List?
How it works in combination with MRP parameter parameter in Source List?
I welcome any inputs on this.
Regards,
Shetty

the agreement is a source too for a specified period.
if you use contracts and source lists, then you have to enter the contracts in the source list to get this contract listed when converting a requisition to a PO.
Especially if you want that MRP autoassigns the contract as source for the requisitions, then you have to set the MRP indicator next to the contract line (keep in mind that each source list must only have one item with a MRP indicator)

Maintaining the scheduling agreement/ po number in the source list?

Hi,
What is the advantage of maintaining the scheduling agreement/ po number in the source list?
Thanks

This numbers will becomes mandatory if we go for "Optimized Purchasing".
If we run MRP, the system will creates PR / Automatic Schedule lines. For this purpose system will take the PO/Schedule Agreement Number from source list.

Agreement Field in Purchase Requisition

Hi Gurus,
The agreement field under source of supply tab in the purchase requisition is auto populated whenever there is a existing contract with the same material group details as the purchase requisition. May i know is there any config that could prevent the auto-populate of the agreement field. My purchase requisition was auto-created in the background through SRM. Whenever my purchaser opens the purchase requisition, this purchase requisition's agreement field is auto-populated. Any way to prevent this from happening?
Regards,
Wilson

Dear
Please set the some customizing setting
SPRO>>Material Management>> Purchase Requisition>>Define Screen Layout at Document Level>>Select Line ME51N and go to Detail icon then select Reference Data, Item there Outline Agreement remove to required field to Optional Fields.

Source list mandatory only for scheduling Agreement

Hi Gurus,
My client wants to make source list mandatory only for scheduling agreement. While creating scheduling agreement for a particular type and saving it should be mandatory. But for Purchase orders and contracts this is not required. If i do it through OME5 then it becomes mandatory for PO and SA both. Also if i set in material master it becomes mandatory for both.
Please let me know if there is way to do it.
Thanks and Regards,
Yuvaraj

It doesn't make too much sense, but... do you want to be sure (garantee) that the source list has been created and it is relevant to MRP when you have a schedule agreement? perhaps you can use a user exit when you save the schedule agreement to create the source list.
There is no standard functinality that's allow you to requirer the source list according the po type.

Hi
Source list means list of sources (vendors)available for a particular material to procure.
The purpose of source list is for a material how many source are there to supply.
Steps:
1. while creating MM01 (Material Master) in the purchasing View in other data TICK the SOURCE LIST which makes it mandatory.
While creating Scheduling agreement you have to maintain source list in ME01
The following data are entered.
It contains material, plant,pur org, vendors with validity period from & to so that whether you can procure from the vendor or not.
Following T/Code activities in Material Management module.
Maintain source list - ME01
Display source list - ME03
Display changes to source list - ME04
Analyze source list - ME06
Reorganize source list - ME07
Generate source list - ME05
Display source list for material- ME0M
you make the system settings that are necessary for purchasing operations carried out using source lists.
Source list requirement for materials, It may be necessary to include possible vendors of a material in the source list before the material can be ordered.
The Source list requirement field in the purchasing data of the material master record indicates whether a source list requirement exists for a material.
You can define the Source list requirement at plant level in IMG. Logistics -->Materials management --> Purchasing --> Source list.
Here you can see the plants for which a source list requirement exists.

How can I enable the Special Stock Indicator in the source list?

Hello Gurus,
How can I enable the Special Stock Indicator in the source list? This can be found in the Maintain source list detail screen, source group and beside the order unit. Even I am in the create or in change mode, still the indicator can't change
Thanks!

OSS note 668764 explains that the special stock indicator field is a display only field and cannot be changed in the source list. it is only taken over from a scheduling agreement.

How the source list is created automatically

Hi all,
Cud any one tell me is there any way to create the source list automatically. as per my knowledge we need to give the tick for the plants we want the source list should be made mandatory while creating the material master.
How can be make the Source list field for the Purchasing view mandatory while creating the material master .

Hi,
You can have the system generate a source list for a material automatically. The system offers you the possibility of quickly entering or updating all source list records for a given source list.
With this procedure, a source list record can be created for each info record and/or each outline agreement item for one or more materials.
You can create the source list for several materials (collective procedure) or a single material (individual procedure).
Prerequisites
Before you create source list records, consider the following:
For which materials/plants are the source list records to be generated?
Are only outline agreement items, only info records, or both be taken into account? (Decision only in the case of the collective procedure.)
What is the validity period of the source list records to be generated?
Do source list records already exist for the materials for which you want to create source list records? If so, you must decide whether the old records:
May not be changed
Are to be deleted
Are to be excluded from the validity period of the generated source list records
Activities
Collective Procedure
With this procedure, you generate the source list for several materials.
Choose Master data Source list Follow-on functions Generate.
Enter the necessary data.
Create the source list.
A list of the source records to be generated is displayed. Already-existing source list records whose validity periods are thus changed are also listed.
Select the source list records you want to include in the source list.
Fixed or blocked source list records: You can mark a source list record as "fixed" or block it. A "fixed" source represents the preferred source of supply, whereas a "blocked" source is one from which you are not allowed to order. Select the desired source list record. Then choose Edit Fix, or Edit Block.
Choose to store the selected source list records for the displayed material in the source list.
Exception messages are displayed by the system. Press ENTER to continue the saving process.
Individual Procedure
With this procedure, you generate the source list for a single material.
Choose Master data Source list Maintain. The initial screen for the source list appears.
Enter the material and plant number. Then press ENTER to display the overview screen.
Choose Edit Generate records.
In the dialog box which appears, enter the validity period of the source list records to be created.
First determine how existing source list records are to be treated if their validity periods overlap with the one specified. To do so, set the appropriate indicator in the dialog box. Press ENTER . The source list is created.
Click to save the source list.

BRFplus and creation of info record and source list

Hi there.
I would like to use BRFplus to fill out MM values and after that automaticly create info record and source list for this MM record. The first step is ok, but creating IR and Sourcelist I am not sure. What is the best way to do so?
-> Calling FM? If so how should I use the Result Data Object and Dispatcher field in BRFplus?
Thanks in advance.
Per Zanchetta

Hi,
Yes could call FM using BRF+ Procedure Call-Function Module. And map the exporting parameter (results of FM) to BRF+ ruleset parameter and do the further processing.
When you assign FM name then in below container UI you can add all required parameters using "Add Parameter" button.

System not checking the source list while creating Scheduling Aggrement

Dear Gurus,
when i create a PO for a material(XYZ) which is not having a vendor(100) in the source list the system throws me a error message sayin that the vendor(100) is not maintained i the Source list.
but the same is not happenin when i create a Scheduling aggrement.
Can you please advice me which setting i am missin here?
Thanks...
Kumar

Hi,
Are you trying to create the Scheduimg agreement for the same plant as that of the Purchase order?
As "Source list mandatoty" check box is in the plant specific view of Material master,it is possible that it is not ticked in case both the plants are different.
Please check & advise.
Thanks & regards,

How to compare two fields from different list sharepoint designer?

hi All,
I need to add a value to a field using SharePoint designer workflow. The value is from another column.
for example list A has the field has loginID, and another list B has loginID amd another column called Desig.
i need to compare both and get the Desig field and store it to a column. how do i do that in sharePoint Designer workflow.

Hi,
you can create a workflow variable ex.Test. and add an action set Workflow variable. Then you have to set this variable value using lookUps. something like(in look up window)
Data source: Choose List B
Field from source: Choose Desig
Then under find the list item
Field: Choose login Id
Value :(Again open lookup window by clicking "fx") and in this window choose
data Source: List A
field from source :LoginId
and click ok.
attached is the image for your reference. (I am using other lists,you can change appropriately )

Should/can the install script included in source=() list?

Hi,
It is a good thing that the sources needed to build a package are md5summed for integrity, but in most packages the install script is not. I was thinking why this might be - the PKGBUILD can be expected to modify the script?
So to try, in one of my packages I added the install script to the source=() list. The package builds of course just fine. Then, however, if I want to upload it to AUR, I try to make a source-only package with "makepkg --source", which brakes with something like this:
ln: creating symbolic link `/tmp/foo/srclinks.YjYgQ8XlE/foo/foo.install': File exists
This is because makepkg tries to create a 2 symbolic links with the same filename: one link for the "foo.install" in the source=() list and also for the install=() list....
Is this deliberate, or a bug? Looks more like a bug to me, but thought I better ask first....
Cheers,
Greg

It might be completely internal to the pacman but defines actions taken on the system - thus whatever is in .install has effects just like the rest of the files, maybe even more: the other files are just copied, the .install is executed.
And while it might never get installed on the system, it's internals are - how else one could define a "post_uninstall()" if it wasn't stored? Being pacman developer you know much more about this than I do, can you give a bit of info on that?
Right it is installed to pacman database, but again, it is pacman doing all that.
Fair enough.... The detail, however, that is not installed does not preempt checksumming. Eg. patches are also: 1) used for the package, 2) not installed, and 3) still in the checksum....
shining wrote:
All I'm trying to get to, is there any serious reason (technical, not philosophical) NOT to checksum the install script as well? Because I'm yet to see any valid arguments against it, and there are loads for it....
Taking your example from kernel26 :
-i $startdir/kernel26.install
-i ${pkgdir}/etc/mkinitcpio.d/${pkgname}.preset
Note that the scriptlet edited is the original one in $startdir , because that's the only place where it needs to be, from the packager pov.
While for the preset file, it needs to be copied to $pkgdir and it is edited there.
If you had a checksum for the scriptlet, it would also mean that makepkg -g output could be altered after running makepkg. Very weird..
Ok, this is indeed the case. But if you look at real packages, it seems that after the package is compiled, many times they update the PKGBUILD with the new md5sum values. Again: core/kernel26.
That .install update section in the PKGBUILD is then relegated to a "helper function" role that keep the information in sync when there's a new release, but as the PKGBUILD is distributed, it won't change anything in the .install anymore...
Thus, again, there's no real difference between the .install files and other files used as source.
shining wrote:Btw the whole scriptlet file could be created entirely from the pkgbuild build function.
Sure, and that's a great thing! I actually wondered why so many packages have separate .install when it can be done in the PKGBUILD. Thought it might be some convention, but probably just habit.... I prefer doing it in the PKGBUILD as well, whenever possible...
shining wrote:There might be ways to fix that, though I don't even see any good ones. But why bother ? You said there are loads of valid arguments to have it , but you didn't even give one !
On the other hand, I'm yet to find any of your rebuttals that are not rebutted here again...
shining wrote:What are you worried about here ? Security ? If you think adding a checksum for the install file is going to give you any security, you are badly fooling yourself. If someone is distributing a malicious pkgbuild, it can contain the md5sum of the malicious scriptlet which is shipped with it.
I think you misunderstood me. I'm not complaining, but inquiring. The PKGBUILD system is awesome, and it makes me search out programs that I use but not in the repo/AUR so that I can make a new package. But also, I'm interested in the "how" and "why", and hope to improve things if possible. Now, to me it seems theres an unreasonable distinction to checksum some files needed for a package but not all of them. And thus I set out to ask the elders here on the Forum to see whether someone can shed light on the reasons of the current state. Not trying to piss of anybody, but being interested.
Of course the md5sum is not security, it's a help, nothing more.
As an example: some time ago, there was a package in the community (thus managed by TUs) that had an update. I wanted to check out something in the package, got the PKGBUILD and tried to make it myself - md5sum says that the sources are incorrect.... Obviously something must have gone very bad, because the md5sum field was updated according to the SVN, the package is available on pacman thus it had to build, and the sources used in the package have not been changed for a while so that cannot be a problem....
I've got a package from a trusted source and it is broken, the md5sum told me. So the breakage can be the very same way in the install script, why is the md5sum not allowed to tell me that?
shining wrote:The only security for pkgbuilds is yourself. When you get one from a strange place, you MUST read the pkgbuild/install files.
Of course, never argued against it. But there are different layers of verbosity....
Anyway....

Fixed vendor in source list not recognized by MRP

Hi
I have a source list (ME01) with a listed info record for a particular plant/purch.orgvendor/material combo.
I have ticked the fixed vendor tick and flagged it as MRP relevant (MRP=1).
When I run the MRP the purchase requisition is created but the vendor field in the purchase requistion is empty. Somehow the MRP does not recognize the source list settings. No fixed vendor is allocated to the purchase requisition.
Validity period of source list is checked.
I have checked the User exit LMEQR001, but nothing is implemented.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Lars

Hello Lars,
Please check the following settings in cutomization;
SPRO>>Materials Management>>Purchasing>>Environment Data>>Define Default Values for Buyers.
Select : Double Click: Settings for Default Values.
Now select the group and go to Source determination Tab.
In tab under pre-setting of automatic source dtermination indicator.
Tick the check boxes Create purchase requistion and create purchase order vendor unknown.
Note: In ME01, if your vendor is external then you have maiantain thye vendor in vendor fileld. If vendor is internal (say plant to plant transfer) then vendor needs to be maintained under ppl field.

Vendor change - info record/source list

Hi,
I need help with the following please: Lets say a vendor goes out of business, is there a quick way to have all of their material directed to another vendor? Or must I create new inforecords and change sourcelists?
Thanks,
Rob

hi,
If you have any of the reference docuements made for the current vendor, then yes ofcourse you have to make the changes in it:
You have to make changes in:
1. Doc like schedule agreement, contract, PR, PIR etc....you can have to change your vendor here....
2. change the source list as per the new vendor....
And then generate the PO....
OR
You can have the Partner functions:
So that you can deliver the materials to the other one....and you can can pay on the given bank account...
ie. you can change the bank account in VMR....
But this is possible if you can have the same vendor name.....
Hope it helps...
