Alternstive UOM in Purchase Requisition

We are maintaining two different UOM as Basic UOM and Purchase Order UOM. How can we populate Purcahse Order UOM in Purchase requisition also. As of now by default it is taking Basic UOM.

OSS Note 20847 - ME51(N): Base unit of measure in purchase requisition:
If you create a purchase requisition (Transaction ME51, ME51N), the base unit of measure will always be copied in the quantity unit field of the item (EBAN-MEINS) for an item with material number, even if you have maintained an order unit for the material in question in the material master.
Reason and Prerequisites
It is programmed this way (and not an error). The base unit of measure field from the material master (which is in MT06E-MEINS) is transferred to EBAN-MEINS.
Solution
There is none. This functionality has not been planned and will not be implemented in later releases either.

Reqmt qty of variable size item in purchase requisition

Hello All
I am having a FG "A" & components "B" & "C" out of these two components "B" is variable size item with Base UOM as M, I have given two sizes of "B" as 3M & 2M in the BOM., i.e. material "B" is added two times as a component with variable size item.
For 1SQM of A" require 3M & 2M of "B" & 1KG of "C". When am having a reqmt of 10SQM of "A" the sys calculates the dependent reqmt correctly as 30M, 20M of "B" & 10KG of "C", but the purchase requisition of "B" is coming as of 50M.
My problem here is that how the user would come to know how many qty of "B" is reqd of 3M & 2M length.
Please throw some light on this behavior of the system. Looking forward to your valuable inputs & guidance.
Regards,
J K Tharwani

jitendra,
as i post in my earlier reply ,
there is one work around which will work for you is that , use lead time offset ( with positive + or negative quantity of day ) in component detail screen for one of the position of B in the BOM so in that case you will have 2 different purchase requisition for B.
Check it out and revert back , i am sure it will work for you.
Only problem is the date will be delayed by one day or prepone by one day for the second position where B is assigned.
other wise there for getting this information in PO , you need to go for Z development.
for it you need to keep a check on specific plant , what are the purchase requisition that have material which are being used as variabble size item category in BOM and for this material you need to Pull values from Variable size field of Item, details screen.
ROM1 and ROM2 and publish it in text of PR and PO.
Check and revert back.

Printing purchase requisition

Hi All,
As per my knowledge, Purchase requision is a internal document and hence printing option is not available in standard SAP. However due to some legal and complice requirement, my client want to print all the purchase requisition. I know, we need some development for PR printing.
Can some one give some idea how to achive PR printing ?
Thanks,
sp sahu

Hi,
First of all you will have to create a report, in order to select PR you would like to print.
Here is an example of Selection Screen:
Purchase Requisition (EBAN-BANFN) - This selection field can be mandatory
Purchase Requisition Type (EBAN-BSART)
Werks (EBAN-WERKS)
Applicant (EBAN-AFNAM)
Purchase Requisition creation data, and so on
Ok, based on selection screen System should give you an ALV report
So you can define which Fields will be shown on your Report:
Line item, Material Number, Short Text, Quantity, UOM, and so on.
You can get all this information from EBAN table and if you need show accounting class. you can use table EBKN
User should select which PR he would like to print and run
Well, you will need develop ABAP Smart Form in order to print information you need.
Here is an example:
Purchase Requisition Number:
Creation Data:
Item Cont. Clas Item Categ Material Short Text Quantity UOM Price Del. Date Werks
This is a simple example.
I hope it helps you.
If you need more information, please, let me know.
Best Regards,
Natan

Purchase Requisition for asset services

Hello,
I have a task to modify a purchase requisition (tcode:me51n) with item category (service) and account assignment (asset services) for filing automatically the asset field (ESKN-ANLN1) based on specific service-activity number (ESLL-SRVPOS). These fields are at items details screen and asset number at account assignment tab.
Until now I have achieved to link an asset with specific service in service master through classification. This information is stored at AUSP. Also, I am taking the activity number using a field symbol and asset number with select from AUSP. The problem is that the asset value doesn’t have an export at screen. I have tried user exits EXIT_SAPLMLSK_001 from enhancement SRVESLL, exits from enhancement mereq001 and the exit EXIT_SAPLKACB_002 from ACCOBL01 and also the badi ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST, but I couldn’t achieve to pass the asset number as export to screen .
Could any expert help me to this ?
Thanks a lot

Dear,
we can maintained below combination of account assignment and item category as per the business requirement and as per the selected combination of account assignment and item category PO document type gets differs.
Account assignment- Blank and Item category -Blank - PO type will be standard PO (for Domestic Vendor)
Account assignment- Blank and Item category -Blank - PO type will be Import PO (for Foreign Vendor)
Account assignment- F (Internal Order) and Item category -Blank - PO type will be standard PO
Account assignment- F (Internal Order) and Item category -D(Service) - PO type will be Service PO
Account assignment- A(Asset) and Item category -Blank - PO type will be capital PO
Account assignment- A (Internal Order) and Item category -D(Service) - PO type will be Capital PO / Service PO
Account assignment- K(Cost Center) and Item category -Blank - PO type will be standard PO
Account assignment- K(Cost Center) and Item category -D(Service) - PO type will be Service PO
In all account assignment ,G/L account will be mandatory field along with selected account assignements in PR/PO.
create services from AC01 (similar as Material Master) to keep unique records in system . and then select these service codes while creating PR.
Use below steps:
1 ) Select account assignment
2) Select Item Category
3) Enter Short text as service specification ( same as material description) ( Example - Main Service specification - Floor Cleaning)
4) Qty is always 1
5) Select UOM
6) Select Service Material Group
7) Fill up all mandatory details
8) Under Service Tab , you need to now provide all service specifcations one by one. ( Example- sub services 1st Floor Cleaning ,2nd Floor)
9) then you have to provide Price
10) Required Qty ( In case of you giving salary to workers for month ,then Qty will be 30/31 as per month ,and UOM will be Day)
Hope this will clear to you.

Unit of measure in a purchase requisition

I want to create a purchase order using a material with two unit of measure, base unit of measure and Order unit.
I want use the Order unit in the purchase requisition but the system deletes this unit of mesure and sets the Base unit of measure.
Anybody knows what can I try to use the Order unit of material in a purchase requisition?
Thank you,

Hi Ana,
The Purchase Requisition always uses the 'Base Unit of Measure' maintained for a material in the Item Overview section.
If you want to use an alternative 'Unit of Measure' you can specify this in the 'Source of Supply' tab in Item detail. This will be the 'Unit of Measure' that is adopted into the PO when the PReq is converted. You have to also make sure that you maintain conversion factors between your UOM's.
Hope this helps,
Ravelle

Now when I am trying to create a Purchase requisition , system is not allowing to change the base unit of measure (case ) . its greyed out .
Can anyone suggest me the fix .

Hi Deepa,
Plz follow the below steps to make sure alternative UOM to work:
1. In the material master record, maintain the alternative UOM that you wish to
    use, with conversion factor, in Units of Measure tab under additional
    data.
2. Then, in the purchasing view, maintain the indicator 1 - Active for the field,
    Var. OUnit,
3 .Maintain the UOM conversion and and also activate the variable order unit in
    the corresponding inforecord.
Let me know if you have any issue.

Unit in purchase requisition

Hi all,
When I create a purchase requisition, the unit taken is unit of measure. I can not modify it, and use the order unit.
When I do the purchase order based on this PR, the unit is the order unit. The order unit is well define in MM03 (display material) and ME13 (info record).
I want to use the order unit in the PR. Is it possible and how ?
Thanks for your help
Regards.
Mathieu

Hi
PR is an Internal Document....Ie) The users or User Department in your company are requisting the Purchase Department to arrange or Procure material or service for their purpose....that they will ask in UOM only.....they wont bother about or many cases not aware of the Order unit...
So as per SAP Best Practice, the PR will have only UOM...not Order unit...
reward if useful

SNP purchase requisitions quantities generated with Decimals

HI Gurus,
When we run the location heuristics in SNP the purchase requisitions are (Distribution Receipts Planned ) are created without decimals.But when these are published to ECC the purchase requisitions are generated with decimals.For Example the SNP PR value is 15 and the ECC Pr is 15.200.How can i restrict this because i want the same quantity which is generated by SNP heuristics .Are there any settings in UOM(Unit of measure).I checked in the planning area for the key figure everthing is fine.
What are the settings to be made.
Dhanunjay.

The SNP might be generating 15.2 based on your lot sizing settings.
Most probably the reason you see 15( with no decimals) in SNP Planning book is because for your keyfigure, you have 0 decimals.
Go to Design mode for the plannning book, select the keyfigure and change the decimal places from 0 to 3(or any higher number)
Now you should be able to see 15.2 as stated in your example even in the plannning book
One other way to check would be in the product view(RRP3) or as someone already suggested( RRP2)
Thanks

FI MM integration with purchase requisition

Hi,
For FI MM integration - acquire asset through MM - the process is -
1) create asset master
2) Purchase requisition
3) PO
4) Assign asset master to PO
5)Goods receipt
It is difficult to create an asset master in advance, so the solution is to create purchase requisition without account assignment.
I would like to know whether this is possible. because once we select Account assignment category "A" system does not allow us to save the Purchase requisition.
Can someone pl. help me understand how to achieve this.
Thank you
- Vedavatee

Hi vedavatee,
You need to assign Asset Number since PR when you are using Account Assignment A.

Error in new purchase requisitions, for already deliverd materials

Dear all,
I have a problem with newly created purchase requisitions, although material was partially delivered and no delivery is expected anymore.
For example I have ordered 1767kg of oil and a total sum of 1766.2kg was deliverd. This means only a minor amount of material was not deliverd and only 80gramm are missing. The purchase value key allows a 5% over and under delivery.
Usually I would expect, that because of the purchasing value key of 5 % over and under deliverance allowence this situation should not occur anymore. Additionally at the time of goods receipt the key of final delivery was set and the purchase order is updated correctly.
But when I run the MRP again I will have another purchase requisition. The dependend requiement of the material above still existis as production is not finished yet or this is still a planned order.
What keys do I need to set in total for allowing a "partial delivery"?
- Purchaseing value key in the material master
- Delivery completed at the time of goods receipt
Maybe this question is to basic as I cannot find any questions / answers related to this issue here in the forum.
In some points, I found that I need to set up the vendor accordingly to set up partial deliveries. But I cannot find the right setting to allow the vendor to do so. I use MK02 for the change of the vendor settings.
Thank you very much for your support!
With best greetings,
Bjoern

Hello Jürgen,
yes after thinking about this issue again, I think this might not be an appropriate solution. Now I am thinking about other possibilities.
1) Automatically change the value in the production order at the time of saving MIGO - will not create any more missing material messages and no new purchase requisitions .
2) Errror message, that for this positions no more postings are possible as the purchase order still remains "open"
3) I need to find the customizing of the indicator "delivery completed". At the moment I just dont see, the influence of this indicator.
Sorry for my "stupid" questions, but I am quiete new to these MM topics. Up to now I was always doing only PP and QM but our collegue for MM has left the team and there are some open issues which now belong to me. Lucky me.
I have created a new posting at:

Error in creation of purchase requisition

Hello Sap Guru,
When we are trying to create a purchase requisition under t.code ME51N, we are getting error message "enter valuation price"?
If anyone can please explain the reason & solution of this error.
Thanks In advance
Deepak Garg

{code)When we are trying to create a purchase requisition under t.code ME51N, we are getting error message "enter valuation price"?{code)
Hi,
it is sap standard process when you create PR and if material master record exist the price is automatically taken from the valuation price field. if record not exist enter lum sum price of requested material price.
When purchase guy create po with reference to Pr they can change valuation price also.
In custommization for Purchasing under Purchase Requisition -> Define Screen Layout at Document Level, you can set price and price unit. The Valuation price field can be set as a mandatory or optional input field.
