Alternate document type for MRP requisition
Our purchase scenario is that all MRP purchased items must have an approved contract to move to a purchase order. In 95% of the cases, this will be true, but there will be that 5% that, due to expiration of the contract or quantity/value exceeded, a valid, approved contract will not be available. However, the purchase must still proceed.
Our thought is to create an alternate requisition type that the buyer could change the MRP requisition document to. This new document type would then be subject to requisition release strategy.
However, using an MRP generated requisition (creation indicator B), the document does not allow change of the document type. The new document type is a complete copy of the NB document type used in MRP proposal planning, including the number range. The only difference is that the new document type is subject to requisition release.
Changing the document type at the MRP group level won't solve the problem as very few materials will actually require this change. It would be temporary until the existing contract could be extended and approved or a new one created and approved. Also, it seems that the MRP group setting affects only the purchase order and not the requisition.
Is there a way for us to make this process work more smoothly than to have to copy the items from the NB document type to the alternate document type manually?
Assuming you have a material master involved, why not try MRP Group in TCode OMDT. You can assign the group to the material and that group can determine the PR type that is created.

You can set different MRP doc.type: purchase requisitions for standard purchase order / purchase requisition for subcontracting / purchase requisition for subcontracting at MRP group level
Using transaction OPPR u2013 Select plant u2013 Select/create MRP group under External procurement screen click on Scheduling/doc type.
And make sure that in material master u2013MRP1 view you are maintaining this MRP grp.

For new document type for pur. requisition
Dear cons
We have created two series of purchase requisition i.e. - ph-1, ph-2 for project. For ph-1 pur Requisition we have created WBS element. Also for ph-2 we have created separate WBS element. When we create a pur. Requisition for ph-1 if we entered WBS element of ph-2 the system is accepting which is creating a problem. Our point is that system will only accept WBS element of the respective phase. That means for ph-1 pur. requisition the system will accept only ph-1 WBS element not ph-2 WBS element. So pl. give some idea so that we can solve the issue. So where can we make the setting so that the issue can be solved.

Separate Doc.Type for MRP generated PRs
Dear All
We are facing an issue with MRP process where we want to automate the process from MRP run to PO creation.
In source list we will add the existing contracts and make it relevant to MRP so that after MRP run we will get source (vendor defined in the contract) assigned purchase requisitions. After that, we will create a background job for ME59n in order to get the POs automatically after MRP run.
In this process we are facing issue with the auto PO generation through ME59n as funds management (FM) related parameters such as Fund and Fund center need to be enetered manually at the time of PO creation in our system. So in order to avoid this manual entry we want to define FM derivation which automatically populate the fund & fund center in the MRP generated PRs.
Further, we have two options for FM derivation one is valuation class and the second one is Document type. If we define the FM derivation based on the valuation class we cannot only restrict to MRP generated PRs. Second option is separate document type for MRP generated PRs.
Please provide pros and cons regarding the creation of new document type for MRP. Also, please provide your suggestions or any work arounds for the above discussed scenario. Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
PrabhasHi nagaraj
it makes sense . i will explore and tell you.
what about your source assignment standard program. hope it will assign source of supply if it is a valid unique source of supply else it will assign eprofile to your purcase request. check with technical resource how the satndard program behaves.
i will also explore my side again. check mm forum too on your purchase organisation assignment for your userexists.
one question to you.
when you create a PR for material and go to source of supply .why do we get many fixed vendors like contracts,info record if we have valid fixed vendors as sap ecc standard.but in my PR i may not have Purchase organisation information.

How to create a new document type for PO and Requisition
Hi All
Can you please help me with the steps of creating a new document type for PO and PR. Also the steps that need to be update for the procure pay cycle to work properly.
Once the document type is been created. I want to create the PO referecing the new PR and PO document type.I am new in MM.
Thanks, RosHi,
1. You can create new PR and PO docu types at the following path:
For PR docu type:
First you need to create number range for docu type or you can use existing number range also. The path for creation of no. range is
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Number Ranges
Then create PR docu type at below path and assign no. range to PR docu type here only
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types
For PO docu type:
Follow same procedure as mentioned for PR docu type. Path is
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Order->Define Number Ranges
SPRO>Materials Management>Purchasing->Purchase Order->Define Document Types
If you want to create PO referencing new PR docu type, link the PR docu type to PO docu type at below path:
SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types--> Link purchase requisition - document type

In order to create a document type for a purchase requisition use the path
spro-materials management - purchasing--purchase requisitions --define document type
in that screen you select the document type you want to copy to create your document type and perform the action.
if you want to change the screen/field selection for your document type select the field selection key (if you select the document type as NBB the field selection key will be NBB.,and go to the screen and change the field status.
Hope this will be suffient for your requirement.

PO document type for third party PO...?
Hello friends,
My client's requirement is that third party PO should have different document type, say ZTRD?
I tried to configure the same with PR and PO doc types. I created new PO type ZTRD. I maintained the combination of PR doc type NB with item cat S to PO doc type ZTRD with item cat S. I also deleted the standard config i.e. combination PR doc type NB with item cat S to PO doc type NB with item cat S.
I created third party SO which created third party PR (doc type NB). But when I tried to convert this PR into PO, still with above config, I am getting error - Doc. type/item cat. NB/S (requisition) <-> NB/S (purch. order) error.
Please help me to configure the Z doc type for third party PO.
Thanks in Advance,
Pat.Hi
Please try the following, do not delete the standard settings
1) Create Z document type for PR and assign this document type to relevant Schedule line Category ( CS for example) in SD
2) Create Z document type for PO and keep only Item category S & Z document type for the Item category S created for PR.
Hope it helps.

Cahnges Alternate Document type
Hi Friends,
I have maintained an alternate document type ZMMF in OR10 Sales Order. In Sales order it is showing both options i.e. ZMMF and OR10. But when I am going to change this, system is prompting an error as below:
Changes to sales document type are not possible (item category of item 000010)
Message no. V1847
Diagnosis
You cannot enter any values for the item category for item 000010. This means that you cannot change the sales document type.
Procedure
Change the sales document type back to the previous value.
I request you to pls help me in sorting out this issue.
Regards Krishan RahejaHi Krish. I'm having the same problem. What I investigated is that, for same reason I ignored, it is not possible to alternate documents with a configurable item category (VBAP-STRUM must be empty or 'E').
So if you have configure your system to work with sales order stock, it is not possible to alternate document using the standard system.
I've checked some notes and I couldn't find the reason nor the solution.
Hope will be useful for future references. -
MRP-Exclude STO document type from MRP Run
Hi,
I want to exclude STO document type from MRP run, so that STO Open qty will not be considered as open qty while doing MRP.
I have checked below settings but didn't worked.
1. In OMI8 - I have unchecked "Stock in Transfer"
2. SPRO->Materials Management->Consumption-based Planning->Planning->Define torage Location MRP per plant
Here I have excluded ONE storage location from MRP and same storage location has been used in the STO.
Can anyone know how to resolve this ?
Regards,
RakeshRakesh,
Yes, they will not be relevant for MRP. Neither will anything else in that storage location. However, the setting is not in configuration, but in the material master (MRP4 tab).
The configuration setting you mentioned has no impact on existing material masters, it is only used to determine the default settings for newly created storage location entries for a material/plant..
You can set a particular material/plant/stlocn to be irrelevant for MRP. This relevancy is irrespective of document type, it can be a STO, a purchase req, a sales order, a production order, or it could be stock (inventory) - all supply and demand in this material/plant/stlocn are excluded from MRP processing.
MRP relevancy of storage location is set at the material/plant/storage location level in the material master.
If you do not wish to exclude a storage location from MRP, then you will have to find another way to make your STOs Irrelevant for MRP. As I said earlier, STOs (like any other Purchase orders that are configured to process stock ), are generally considered to be relevant for MRP.
If you were a client, I would suggest that you rethink your business model that drives this requirement.
If the business model cannot be altered, and the storage location solution is unacceptable, then you will be stuck with a customized solution.

DB49
