Blanket Purchase Order and MRP

Gurus,
How MRP considers Blanket purchase Order - supplies..suppose i have a BPO for 100 Items/1 yr..that means roughly every qtr 25 numbers.But we are not asking the suppliers to supply the good until we ask him..this contract is to reduce lead time ..still buyer should be aware of the demand for this items..if BPO is not there..he will get requisitions..but now MRP will not recommond PR's as BPO is in place..pl advise..how to handly this case/
I couldnt find much documentation on BPO and MRP.
Rgds,

MRP does not consider BPO as supply. Only blanket releases are considered as a supply.
So in your case, MRP WILL recommend PR whenever it sees the demand. And the buyer will be able to convert the PR into a Blanket release.
Hope this answers your question

Blanket Purchase Order and the Framework Order

hi Gurus,
I wanted to know the following.
What is the difference between Blanket Purchase Order and the Framework Order.
Thanks.

Hi,
Framework order is also known as Blanket PO.....which we use for the procurement of Low value Material with Long term planning....It is used as Mini Contract....
Blanket Order:
Used for long validity period and with the provided value limit. By its name u201Cblanketu201D which covers to required long time? We use doc type FO(for long period) and item cat. B(for value limit).Goods receipts or the entry and acceptance of services performed are not necessary in the case of a blanket PO and limit items. The invoices are posted directly with reference to the purchase order, provided that the specified value limit is not exceeded. But manual entry of invoiced amount and invoiced quantity is required during LIV process.
Example: Procurement of stationary items.
Frame work order:
Framework order (FO) is a document type which is provided by the standerd SAP.
It can be used for the consumable material ( Which is having low value & where making GR is not of worth like C category item.) & called as blanket PO. Here we need to mntion the validity period & target value or quantity as a restriction as well as need to mention item category as a "b".
Also it can be used for the procurement of extarnal services (Item category "D" ). Here we need to do the entry of services which have been performed & need to accept the same whereas in blanket PO, GR is not required.
At the end i would tel u that Framework order is the document type which can be used as blanket Po & procurement of services.

KK

Blanket purchase order and Framework order?

Dear Gurus,
what are the main differences between Blanket purchase order and Framework order?
Thanks..

Framework order is also known as Blanket PO.....which we use for the procurement of Low value Material with Long term planning....It is used as Mini Contract....
For making Blanket PO....you have to choose Order type: FO in ME21N....with Item category "B"(Limit)
For creating Blanket PO... You need not have to maintain material master.....Maintaining Acc.assignment Category in PO is mandatory....also you have to maintain Validity Period in Blanket PO...
As per SAP Best Practice.....for Blanket PO, GR is not possible.....you can directly post multiple Invoices for One Blanket PO....The validity and total Value of these Invoices for Blanket PO during LIV can be controled by tollerance keys LA and LD.

Limit/Blanket Purchase Orders and CCM Catalogs

Hi,
Is it possible to put Limit/Blanket Purchase Order items into CCM Catalogs?
John

Hi
It is possible to put anything into a catalog - however that does not mean the catalog item will be interpreted or acceptable to the SRM_SERVER, when passing data from a catlaog, the provided information has to be sufficient to allow for successful creation of a procurement document (not a limit/blanket order), i.e. you need either Material Number or Description, based on which of these are passed you may also then require vendor/UOM/quantity, price etc, it is clearly defined in note [395312|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=395312].

Blanket purchase order and PR

i) Purchase requistion is not taking distrubtions from the purchase order release . how can it be resolved.
ii) for a blanket PO some inventory has been received at the store house, how can we know hom much the qty is recieved and ordered. is there any particular script.
regards
Arif

Purchase requistion is not taking distrubtions from the purchase order release . how can it be resolved.PR will not take distribution from the Blanket Release. A release will take distributions from the PR.
for a blanket PO some inventory has been received at the store house, how can we know hom much the qty is recieved and ordered. is there any particular script.
>
You will have to write a script. As Karthik suggested, you will have to join po_headers_all , po_releases_all and po_line_locations_all.
Use the Blanket# to get po_header_id from po_headers_all.
Use that and the release # to get the po_releasd_id from po_releases_all.
Use the po_release_id to get quantity details from po_line_locations_all.
Hope this answers your question

Blanket purchase orders

Hi,
What is the difference between Blanket purchase order and Frames work order and In what situations we create these PO's.?

Hi
Actually Blanket purchase orders has to create the document type as Frame work order.
Balnket PO can be used to purchase material or services upto certain predefined maximum value (value limit) from a vendor.
Nature of materials or services are the purchase of office supplies and minor services required during course of the year.
Blanket PO have the document tyupe FO, instead of specific delivery date in a normal PO here we need to enter the specific valid period.
For a balnket PO no need of goods receipt, only invoice can be done.
Account assignment needs only at the time of invoice verification only.
Hope this will give you an idea......

Blanket Purchase Order

i created blanket purchase order with item category B and account assignment as K
PO created
and i am trying to enter invoice
can any one tell me how to do this..i failed several times
finally in material tab of invoice receipt i entered material number and PO quantity and then i am able to post the invoice..
please explain i did it correctly or tell me the right format
thank you

Hi,
In Blanket PO refer to the business process where you have a Purchase Order with a validity period (start / end date) and a limit on the item. No Goods Receipt takes place. Payment is triggered by Invoice., select document type as FO and item category B and Account Assignment category K & provide the limits to the validity periods and the value limits in the PO.
Multiple invoices can be processed in miro. One thing is that invoices must be processed within the validity period specified in PO. The total value of invoices must also not exceed the limit specified in PO item. The validity period is specified on PO Header Level, while the Limit is on Item level
process :
1. Make the Blanket PO. with doc type FO and item cat B and Account Assignment category K, with GL A/c and costcenter.
2. Because no Goods Receipt (GR) will take place, the GR indicator is switched off when the item category is selected
3. Based on the PO dates, we directly make the Invoice and pay to the vendor

Creation of purchase order in MRP

Hi All,
Is it possible to create purchase order as an output of MRP? If yes, then how?
regards,
Mohit

Hi Mohit,
SAP has not provided such facility of directly creating the Purchase Order in MRP run, intentionally, so as to
1. Provide an Authorization Level over the P.O. creation
2. Provide a chance to change the Planned order or Purchase requizition before PO creation
3. As this is a procurement proposal that is directly linked with the vendor, quantity and Price, it has to be created very carefully.
I hope you got it.
with regards,
gnk

Sequencing of Purchase order and Good Issue acc. to Production order date

Hello ,
We are using Direct procurement scenario ,During MRP run we generate a Plan order(which have dates); which converted into Production order later.For these production order material is needed (components). And for procuring components we need to create purchase order.
Assumption :- Each component have same Procurement lead time
Our requirement is Purchase order and GI in Production order should be done sequentially, means Based on Production order date ,FIFO based Purchase orders are created and GI done in Production order. Production order with earlier production date have purchase orders earlier and we do GI in production order accordingly.
Kindly suggest

Hello Dario
Thanks for your reply. Our requirement is to put a check on system that GI for production order should be done FIFO wise
means as MRP generate 3 production order of same material each at different date , we want issance of components to be done on FIFO wise in production order

Rajeev

Link between Purchase Order and Production Order

Hi,
Could some one tell me how i could get a relation ship between Purchase order and Production Order after a Good receipt is done. Coz after a GR is done I am not able to see the production order for a particular material in MD04 transaction.
Thanks,
Arul.

Hi Arul ,
i think u may not get the LINK b/w Production Order and PO , Bcos--->
check the process --->
RUN MRP , here System will generate the Production Plan and PRs( based on the avail.of that Raw Material).So PO will be generated by PRs.So I think there is no link b/w Production and Purchase .
this is based on the my system settings and my knowledge.

Prabhu
