Assignment of sales organization to purchasing organization

Hi experts,
I saw one diagram that shows a sales organization can be assigned to purchasing organization. Can you please tell me how to assign this? Here's the statement from a book.
In SAP Retail, a sales organization can be assigned to a purchasing organization. This
means that the hierarchy creation that is displayed in the figure may be enforced. For
statistical purposes, this may be of interest. In some cases, both terms are identical.
Thanks for the help

Hi,
here's the menu path in IMG: Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Sales and Distribution -> Define... sales organization
But please note: this is definitely an optional task, it's only for statistical purposes. For reporting purposes you should still be able to get all your analyses based on the organizational assignments of the sites (site master) and also in the business documents (e.g. in purchase order header data) Anyhow, there's one restriction: if you do this, then the purchasing organization in question has to be assigned as standard purchasing organization to those sites, that have the sales organization assigned (further purchasing organizations could still be assigned then).
From a business process point of view the sales organization - purchasing organization assignment is of no relevance.
There might be one aspect related to Retail Pricing: if you forgot to assign a reference site for pricing (you should do this though! - Logistics General -> Retail Pricing -> Sales Price Calculation -> Assign Pricing Type/Reference Site to Organizational Level), the system could use that purchasing organization for supply source determination.

Plant and purchasing organization

Hi all,
I have two questions. Hope anybody can help me out.
1. Do we assign a plant to a purchasing organization or assign a purchasing organization to a plant?
2. Can I assign a plant to multiple purchasing organizations?
thx

Hi,
1) go to IMG>Enterprise structure>Definition> logistics general> define plant
Define Purchase organisation in MM
IMG> Enterprise structure>Assignment> Materials Management> assign Purchase organisation to plant OX17
2)Assign purchasing organization to plant
In this IMG activity, you assign purchasing organizations to the plants for which they are responsible.
You have the following options:
One purchasing organization procures for one plant.
This is plant-specific purchasing.
One purchasing organization procures for several plants.
Several purchasing organizations procure for one plant.
Depending on the form you have chosen, assign your purchasing organization(s) to the respective plant(s).
Rewards welcome

Reference Purchase Organization?

Dear Gurus,
What is the use of reference purchase organization.
In which case, we can assign our plant to reference purchase organization?
Pls clarify my doubts..

Ref. Pur Organisation is used when there is no centralized pur. organisation. You have to define 1 pur. organsation as refernce pur. organisation and link other pur orgnisations to this ref. pur. orgaisation. When you create a contract using this pur. organisation and this contract can be used by other pur orgasations which are linked to this ref. pur oganisation.
Ref. Pur Organisation is basically used for better negotiation.
Eg- You are having 2 plants (A & B) of 2 different company code(A & B).
1. Pur org A is assigned to company code A & plant A
2. Pur Orga B is assigned to company code B & plant B.
3. Ref pur organisation C is created and linked to Pur organisation A and B.
Scenario -
Vendor A can supply Material A 1000 qty at Rs. 100 whereas more than 1000 qty at Rs. 90.
But your requirement for Plant A is Rs. 800 and Plant B is Rs.700
If you create a contract on plant basis to the Vendor A then you have to pay Rs. 100.
But if you create a contract with ref pur organisation C for total requirement of Rs.1500 without plant basis then rate will be only Rs.90.
Then this contract can referred by both the plant and can be converted to P.O at Rs.90.
Hope this helps you.

Assignment of vendor to purchasing organization

Hi All,
We are on SRM 5.0, classic scenario. In our test system, I replicated vendors some time ago. Now the backend has changed and I replicated some new vendors.
Now, during shopping cart creation when when I try to assign source of supply, only few vendors are displayed. Can you tell me how can I check/assign vendors to proper purchasing organization?
I will reward with points usefull answers.
kind regards,
Robert

e.g.
your earlier backend had a vendor code 10000
this vendor you replicated to SRM
when the replication took place SRM created a external BP for this vendor say 1000
then you changed the backend
in your new backend the new vendor code is 10001
this also you replicated to SRM
SRM created an external BO 1001 for the same
Now in your SRM both the BPs i.e. 1000 & 1001 will be available.
But you can not create follow-on with BP 1000 since the related vendor 10000 is not
available in current backend

Assign Purchasing Organization to Plant

Hi All,
When assigning Purchasing Organization to Plant, the field "Status" retrieves the following information:
"Company code of plant/purchasing organization are not identical"
Where can I solve this?
Kind Regards,
Miguel

HI Miguel,
After Creating a Plant in Spro ,by the Copy of as plant it will creting all the remaing in the background it self.
But to make plant as a valuation ,we have check at what level you are doing the valution
Go to OX14 and Check your valution level it should be plant.
Know Comming to the Usage og OMWD.
THis Trasaction is used to Group the valuation area for the accounting determination
in MOre clearly ,if we have three plants ,all the three plants can be linked to to a single Valuation group code or different .
it should be assigned in such a way ,how you want to hit your financials .
it has Link of your Plant and comapany code and the chat of accouts( check with your FI guy) and the Grouping Code( As per your Logic Z001)
After Maintaing the same ,we can use this Valuation group code in OBYC, for accounting determination
if you check BSX trsansaction key --used for inventory Posting
And it that if you Check the rules ,it has Valiation MOdif ,which is nothing but the Valuation grouping code.so they both are one and same.
the other combinations are Valuation class ( Maintained in OMSK) and GL Account ( Maintainted in FS00)
Hope so it help

Assign purchase organization to more than one co codes??

Hey gurus...
Can somebody tell me to how can we assign same purchase organization to more than one company code?
Ganesh.....

You cannot assign one purchase organization to multiple company codes, but you can assign and use one purchase organization to multiple plants belongs to different company codes.
This cross company code purchase organization is useful for better negotiations at corporate level. You can get header level discounts (applicable on total PO Value) across multiple company codes. If you use cross company code purchase organization, you cannot manually enter company code at header level in the PO. The company code is derived from the plant at GR level.

Should Purchasing group be assigned to a purchasing organization.

Do we need to assign purchasing group to a Purchasing organization. If not then why.
Seems like silly question but please help me out conceptually.

Hi,
No need to assign purchase group to purchase organization.
Because if your are assigning purchase group to the perticular purchase organization, purchase group can raise Purchase order to that purchase organization only. He/She can't raise PO for the another organization.
That's why there is no assignment link for Purchase group to Purchase organization in the SPRO - Enterprise structure.
So, Any purchase group can raise PO for the any purchase org.

Assignment of Purchase Organization with Company Code and Plant

Please give me solution to Assign Purchase Organization with Company Code and Plant. While creating a material in organization level plant and purchase organization should be assigned.
Please help me out.
Thanks

Hi,
I am not sure if i have really understood your query.
Material creation means creating master data, as far as creation and assignment of organization elements with other organizational elements are concern for eg : purchase org in you case is part of standard configuration.
You create Purchase org using t-code OX08 here you copy from and existing one and then chane the description of Pur org as per your requirement.
You assign Purchase Org using t-code OX01 to company code assignment, t- codeOX17 for plant assignment to Purchase Org.
Normally you do all your changes in Devlopment server save the changes in an transport request then move it to quality and production enviornment.
Hope this helps.

Assign Purchase organization to plant

Hi,
I have created the reference purchase organization 2000 and assigned it to Purchase Organization 1000 as a reference P.Org.
P.Org 1000 is assigned to plant 1000 .
When creating a PO for P.org 2000 and Plant 1000. I get this message:
<b>Purchasing organization 2000 not responsible for plant 1000.</b>
Does the reference P.org have to be assigned to the plant?
If I read <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/0b/ecb237e29bc368e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/0b/ecb237e29bc368e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm</a>
it says "The reference purchasing organization RORG can be maintained with or without a company code and plant(s)."
but do I have to assign the reference P.org to the plant anyway?
/Anders

Hi Anders
It seems there is some confusion..will try to explain you once again..
Suppose you have two pur organization(One refernce and other belongs to a plant)in your case 2000 and 1000 respectively.
steps are:
1) Both purchasing organizations(2000 and 1000) are maintained in Customizing for the Enterprise Structure under Definition-Materials-Management- Maintain Purchasing Organization.
2)The reference purchasing organization 2000 can be maintained with or without a company code and plant(s).
3)The purchasing organization 1000 is assigned to plant 1000.
4)Purchasing organization 2000 is maintained as the reference purchasing organization for the purchasing organization 1000 in Customizing for the Enterprise Structure .
Now suppose a vendor X is maintained for both purchasing organizations.
material M is maintained for the plant 1000.
Now A centrally agreed contract has been created without a plant by the reference purchasing organization 2000.
An employee belonging to the purchasing organization 1000 creates a purchase requisition for the plant 1000.
The purchasing department(1000) processes the requisition and carries out a source determination procedure.
The contract of the reference purchasing organization(2000) is determined as a valid source.
SO it is the contract which will be used by pur org 1000 (contract belongs to 2000).
if you want to raise a PO using ref pur org 2000 and plant 1000 then you have to assign 1000 plant to 2000.
i hope it is clear now.
regards
Yogesh

Why have you copied your new plant from the existing plant? Ther is no such need.
you may define your plant seperately and maintain seperate assignments to it.

Hi Hong,
The error shows that the P.Group (50000018) is not responsible for P.Org (50000019).
It shows the P.Group (5/18) is a local P.Group and is not linked to the back end (R/3) P.Group. You can check this in the Function tab of the P.Group. Also in the responsibility tab of the P.Group you should mention the responsible P.Org (Org. I.D).
After checking these settings and making the necessary changes try to create and transfer the P.R. Also ensure the queues should be clear before transferring the P.R to SRM.
Let me know the outcome for further help.
Any Claraifications are welcome.
Awad points for suitable answers.

Purchase info record does not exists in purchase organization 1000

Hi experts,
          I have created a new enterprise structure in SAP. when i am creating a PO its picking the correct info record, but when i am doing GR, its giving the error as 'purchase info record does not exists in purchase organization 1000". I have maintained everything perfect. the only thing i have changed is I have moved the open and close period from 11-2002 to 12-2008 in MMPV.
         Please give me some suggestions, where it can go wrong.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Guys,
          Thanks for all yours responses, Actually what deepak said was right, but in my IDES system i am not able to create new entries in assign plant to std purchase org. I found the database view for that, V_001W_E its for table T001W. So i looked into that table i found that std purchase org was given as 1000. i made direct entries in that table, i thought the reason for this may be due to , that i copied plant from 1000. After making entries , i did not got the error message that was i am previously getting.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi.
