Auto PO creation from PR

Dear All,
I have done all process required for Auto PO creation from PR. With TCode Me59 i am able to create a PO also but some field in PO are blank like in header level Additional tab - Validity Start and Validity End, in Communication tab - Your Reference and Our Reference.
And while using ME59N, its shows error
"PO cannot be created
PO header data still faulty
Enter Our Reference
Enter Validity End
Enter Validity Start
Enter Your Reference
Requisition could not be converted"
How will i fill these field. Any link from info record or source list. These field are necessary in PO.
Please anybody help me to solve this issue.

Yes Sir. You have said the right thing. At first i have done the same that make these fields optional. but here as per our business these fields are mandatory for PO. Is there any other way that we forcefully enter data in these fields.
And one more thing i want to ask, i have created PR through MRP run, in this how could i maintain fixed vendor, valuation type, purch org, info record. These all things are necessary to create auto PO creation. Now what are we doing that we create PR through MRP run and then go to change PR enter all these thing and then run ME59N. After that the same problem some fields are blank in PO.
Please suggest me any other way to maintain this....

Hi,
Config setting.
Settings for Automatic PO creation is:
1. Select the Automatic PO check box/option in Purchasing view of material master
2. Select the Automatic PO option in the purchasing data view of Vendor master
3. Maintain Purchase info record
4. ME56- Assign the vendors to PR's
5. ME58- Create PO via assignment list(PR-> PO)
6. ME57- Assign and process PR's
7. ME59N - Create PO automatically via PR
Above step by step procedure is involved in the Automatic PO creation.

Auto Po creation from sales order.

Hi ,
I have a requirement to create a PO automatically from sales order.
We will be creating a third party sales order, corresponding to which system creates an purchase requisition. Now the requirement is that this Purchase requisition should be converted in to PO automatically.
For this in the item category config i have ticked the auto Po check box . Also the source of supply is unique so that purchase requisition is automatically assigned with source of supply.
But still the PO is not created automatically. What are all the configuration and workflow needs to be done for this.?
Kindly help me.

Hi
From SD settings i dont think a purchase order can be directly created based on sales order thro standards
You can trigger only purchase requestion
In VOV6 if you mention order type NB for your schedule line category then a Purchase requestion is only created up on saving your sales order
Item category in VOV6 should be 5 (third party)
Account assignment category should be X
This is third party sales settings
In MM01 also in the purchasing tab of that material create automatic PO check box is there
If you tick that also it generates purchase requestion only not purchase order
In VOV7 create automatic PO check box is there
If you tick that also it generates purchase requestion only not purchase order
Involve your MM people also for this requirement
In MM people can create automatically PO from PR and there are a lot of threads in MM forum regarding that
For automatic PO creation from PR, follow the steps. taken from MM forum
1) Material Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box
2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.(ME01)
4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.(ME11)
5) Create a Purchase Requisition.(ME51)
6) Use T .Code: ME59 & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
7) Note-1:
During creation of PR , select check box of Source Determination in the 1st screen of ME51
Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
If you have more than one vendor then fixes only one vendor in source list.

Auto PO creation from service PR(ME59N)

Hi All,
We have service PR's and need to convert to PO's automatically via ME59N.
I have followed below steps but unable to convert to Po's getting message no Pr's found while executeting ME59N
checked VMR and Automatic PO check box selected.
Step1: Creating PR for services
Step2: and assigned source to this PR through t.code: ME56 (contract existed for this vendor)
Step3:Run the ME59Nby giving PR Number, but PO is not created
what could be the reason..is any idea about auto PO creation for Service PR's
Incase of material i can successfully converts PR's PO's but services i can't.
Thanks in Advance,
Warm regards,

Hi venkat
it should create a PO if the contract is valid..
Note 733045 - Wrong Interface values passed to Services for ME59N
When transaction ME59N is used to convert service purchase requisition
(PR) to purchase order (PO),the program within the ME59N transaction
calls the service package with the wrong interface values.
The following example illustrates one such case :
A Service PR is created and an Outline agreement is assigned as a source of supply to the PR.
when the transation ME59N is executed using the PR's the system performs a mandatory check against the Tax code and tax code has to be entered against each service line to complete the transaction even though the tax code is maintained as a condition.
In the above situation,system behaves in a correct manner for the
transaction ME59 but fails for the transaction ME59N.
Other terms
MS_SERVICE_PACKAGE , ME59N , ME59 , WITHOUT_SCREEN , COPY_SERVICES
Reason and Prerequisites
The calling program of the transaction ME59N calls the function
MS_SERVICE_PACKAGE of services with the wrong interface values.
is it applicable for you?

Auto PO Creation from GR Posting

Dear all,
I setup PO creation automatically when GR w/o PO using movement type 101. All data is fine but PO number can't be assigned by internal number assigned. It displayed "Please specify an external number range" Message no NR753.
Please kindly help~~
Thanks a lot!!

You cannot remove number ranges once they are used. You need to create new number range without external check and assign that range to your PO document type and it should work.

Automatically creation of Purchase Order from MRP

Material type = ROH (raw material)
In MRP1 I have mentioned
1. RP type =VB ( manual reorder point planning)
2.Reorder point = 1000
3.Lot size =FX (fixed order quantity)
4. Fixed lot size = 300
In purchasing I have checked the automatic P.O. option
I have created a source list for the material and fixed the vendor for the material
Quantiy of the material in stock = 0
But Purchase Order is nor automatically generated during the MRP run ( MD03)
IS there any step missing ? please suggest if any .
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
As others suggested standrad SAP will not create PO as output of MRP.
You need to check why you need AUTO FUNCTION.however you can use T code ME59n to create auto PO from Preqs.
About AUTO PO
One example is that while taking delivery of the raw materials which are delivered by trucks and since it is not possible to capture the actual receipted quantity at the time of PO creation.
To create AUTO PO
Check in customizing whether you have maintained creation of automatic PO during good receipt.
Menu path : MM -> Inventory Management -> Goods Receipt -> Create Purchase order Automatically -> Activate Auto PO creation for Mvt type and then activate Auto PO creation in vendor master.
Hope this helps.

Problem during Auto PO Creation

Hi
   Im using a user exit for Auto PO functinality ..
   I have following conditions for creation of Auto PO
   1) For PR with source of supply as Info record will not be converted in PO automatiocally as Info record contains historical prices..
   PR can be assigned source from Source list, contract or quota arrangment for converting it in PO automatically.
    I have maintained all settings require din VM and MM for Auto PO creation..
   Still these PR which satisfies above criterion are not converted in PO automatically..
   when i tried to convert these PR in PO using me21n , i get the message as conditions not mainined so i have to maintain conditions and net price manually..
then PO can be created manually..
so what im missing for Auto PO functionality..
Thanks..

Hi,
I would recommend that you add your contract data to the source list for the material, then you will see it proposed as a possible source for this material.
The problem with source lists are that if you do not have one the system will propose all existing sources for you to choose from. If you DO have a source list the system will ONLY propose sources from that source list.
One option is to use the auto generation transaction ME05 as a regular batch job to keep the sources up to date.
But if you want the outline agreement to be the proposed source when there are others to choose from then select this as the default in the source list.
So I think that your problem is that your agreements are not in the source lists that you have.

Auto PO creation using purchase requisition

Hi,
I have tried the following steps for auto PO creation using purchase requisition.
i. Maintain Auto PO in Material master Purchasing view
ii. Select Automatic purchase order in Vendor master- Purchase data
iii. Maintain info-record
iv. Create PR through ME51
v. enable source determination during creation of PR
vi. Execute using ME59N
But Auto PO is creating with the same document type (e.g NB) which is used while creating purchase requisition (e.g NB). Following steps have done in SPRO.
1. SPRO - MM - Purchasing - purchase requisition - define document type
a. NB- PR document type LINK TO DI01- PO document type
2. SPRO - MM - Purchasing - Purchase order - Define document type
a. DI01- PO document type LINK TO NB- PR document type
3. There is no linking from NB - NB & DI01 - DI01 but still it is creating auto PO with document type NB iif requisition has been created with document type NB.
Please suggest on this . waiting for ur quick response.
Thanks...

Creation of MRP Batch job

Hello PP Sapperu2019s
I need to create a MRP batchjob for one of my plant u2013 9030.I need to know the below highlighted details,
Job name : MRP Plant 9030
*Programname : *
*Variant: *
Frequency : Daily
Timing : 01.00 (during the night)
Step user :
Please help me to proceed with creation of MRP batchjob.
My requirement is to run MRP every night that reschedule the purchase order and create new purchase requestion in Total Horizon.
Need any further input please let me know.
PS:I also refer MDBT for the MRP jobs whihc already created for some other plants but seems to be different from the above requirement.
Cheers,
Kumar.S

For the job which you refer to, go to the spool & study the section 'Runtime statistics'. It will let you know which section took how much time & based on that you would be able to infer what has caused the delay & thereby take suitable actions.
Also note, there is no generic rules as such, each case has to be analyzed if there is a delay. But in general it is better to ensure your planning file entries are consistent, processing key - NETPL or NETCH & planning mode is 1.
I guess this thread has gone way beyond the initial posting, so for any further analysis on this MRP job I would strongly suggest that you sit down with the MRP controller & analyze the same. I am quite sure it shouldn't be difficult in interpreting the results.
Good luck.

PR Creation from Main Order based on Material Availability Check

Hi Experts.
I have activated material check for maintenance order, and system is checking material availability. But system is not generating purchase requisition if material not available.
PR creation from main order is feasible in case I will select item category as Non Stock - N; but system is not creating PR for stock item IC - L.
Can u further guid me, how system will generate PR for material assign in maintenace order, but required stock not available.
Thanks in advance....
Rgds,
Dipen

Hi,
As Venu told, for the Item Category L, system will create the reservation. While running MRP for that item, system will check the stock qty & required qty, then it will create the PR for the unavailable qty.
Only for item category N, from maintenance order, PR will be created.
Maintain the MRP type in Material Master.

Purchase Requisition Creation From Release

Dear PM Gurus,
For Manual material availability Check to work before release, the Purchase Requisition check is to be set to Immediately in SPRO-> Define Change Docs and Collective PR or Activating Pr from Now On from Maintenance Order. The issue is that I want to restrict the creation of Purchase Requisition to Release of Maintenance Order but what is happening is upon saving the Maintenance Order, the PRs for all non stock materials are created and I also want the manual availability check to work before release.
Simplifying above details:
I want Manual material availability check to work and PR generation from release both in my Maintenance Order to work..
Regards..

Hi DP Singh,
I had seen the configuration settings that you are telling me but you see the Problem is:
If in Define Change Docs, Collective Purc. Req. Indicator, Operation No. Interval, you define the Res/PReq Indicator as Immediately, then the Manual Material Availability Check would work accurately but upon saving the Order, System would generate the Purchase Requisition.
and If in Define Change Docs, Collective Purc. Req. Indicator, Operation No. Interval, you define the Res/Preq Indicator as From Release, then the Manual Material Availability Check would not work as no material is as such MRP relevant till the time of releasing the Order but the Purchase Requisition would be created only when the Order is released.
Now What I want is both the Manual Availability Check to work and Purchase Requisition Creation From Release, but this is not possible according to the Standard SAP System. A workaround could be that I configure the automatic material availability upon release and configure the Res/Preq indicator as From Release, that way the material availability would be checked when the order is released and Purchase Requisitions would also be created from Release but still the Manual Availability Check would not work.
The Ideal Solution should have been configuring the Res/Purchase Requisition Indicator for all Non Stock Materials to be From Release and the Res/ Purchase Requisition Indicator for all Stock Materials to be Immediately. This way your manual availability Check would work for all Stock Materials and Purchase Requisition for all Non Stock materials would only be created upon Release. But this But still this is an ideal solution not the actual solution for standard SAP does not give you the flexibility to do such a setting in customizing or using Enhancement.
The Work Around Solution given by SAP is as follows: The system provides the following workaround:
After you change the indicator for materials planning-relevance to
"immediately" you can execute the availability check as required. You must
not save the order or network.

SARFRAZ

Hi
first you need to do seeting for Automatic PO creation from PR
1.You need to check the Auto POcheck box in Purchasing view of the material master
2.You need check the Autoamic PO check box in Vendor master in Purchasing org data
3.You need to maintai the source list with one of the vendor as fixed vendor
4.Purchasing info record for Vendor and material
Then you need to schedule the batch job for ME59N with the variant (Required input selection parameters) with the time intervals.
One third party order created, PR will be generated automatically based on the item category defined in the sales order and source will be assigned in PR.Based o time interval schduled for batch job, the PRs will be automatically converted into PO.
