Can't get my 3rd Party Sales Order to create the PO automatically...
I'm trying to get the 3rd Party Sales Order process to work and I would like it to create the PO automatically (it is already creating the requisition without issue). I have:
i) Set the Auto PO on the Item Category
ii) Set the ALE paramenters asociated with the Sales Org definition
iii) Set the Auto PO on the Vendor Master
iv) Set the Auto PO flag on the Purchasing tab of my NLAG material
v) Created a Vendor Info record
BUT I still don't get a PO being created automatically .... can anyone see where the problem may be?
Thanks.
Hi Dennis - I really appreciate the feedback but I started this thread with ....

BUT I still don't get a PO being created automatically .... can anyone see where the problem may be?
I have since confirmed that I can trigger a PO creation by running ME59N BUT the PO is not created automatically when I save the sales order despite what the help text on the item category implies.
I think I have already done every you have suggested and even a little more, or maybe I'm missing something? Do I need to do something with ALE - turn something on perhaps? Have you actiually seen this functionality working? I'd love to hear from someone who has.
Regards.

One line item delivery for 3rd party sales order
Hello Experts,
We have configured a 3rd party sales order process where the PR gets created. We are using scheduling agreement(PO) and creating Schedule line and doing a GR for partial line items. The stock is recieved as a Sales Order stock.
But when i create a Sales Delivery the delivery document copies all the line items (ieven for the ones which we don't have GR) from the sales order and we have to manually delete the line items from delivery doc.
Is there a way i can restrict the delivery document to only copy the line items from the sales order for which the sales order stock is available? If so how can we do that?
Appreicate your help.
Thanks
Arpita RaniHello All,
We have configured a 3rd party sales order process. The schedule line category is configured with account assignment categoory as "M". when we are creating GR the Moving average price of the material is not getting updated.
But if i replace with "E" it is getting updated, but the CO-PA is not getting generated for Profitability segment reporting.--we need profitability segment reportng.
Can some one tell me how we can update the moving average price using acc. asssignment category type "M" at the same time the Profitability segement information is updated.
THanks in advance
Appreciate your help

Arpita RaniHello Arpita
For 3rd party orders functionality you need to use account assignment category of X and not M. E and M are for individual Purchase orders. You should not use them for 3rd party.
Please see the following OSS notes and follow along:
210997 - Accnt assignment categories in third-party and indiv.PO
550388 - FAQ: Customizing of third-party and individual POs
Good luck. -
PR not created after creating 3rd Party Sales Order
Hi SAP,
We have 3rd Party Sales Order process. The Problem is, PR number is not generate after creating 3rd Party Sales Order.
the problem happen for particular customer only. I already check the credit limit and its okay.
need help,If the PR is not getting created, please click on the Incompletion log in the SO to check for any missing data.
If it is complete use VKM3 transaction to check if the SO needs a credit release., if needed relase the SO and the PR will get generated.
Check if the material is maintained for purchasing or not. -
Can we create two POs for the same 3rd party Sales Order?
Hi MM experts,
Issue: Can we create two POs for the same 3rd party Sales Order
In Third party purchase process, first sales order created with a spl. item category and it creates the PR automatically with the Sales order material and Qty and this PR converted PO.
They got a pur.req. for sale order on same item for same delevery date. They did not get any warning msg. saying that a PO was prviously placed against this sale order.
How it is possible that we were able to place another PO? concern is that second PO was palced against SO which was already used & completed. they were able to place 2 POs for the same customer same delevery date. How it is possible?
If anyone face the same issue, please let me know if you have any answer to this questions.
Thanks in advance.
Suresh.Suresh,
It is hard for me to give you a definitive answer since you have created a customized solution.
How it is possible that we were able to place another PO? concern is that second PO was palced against SO which was already used & completed. they were able to place 2 POs for the same customer same delevery date. How it is possible?
Normally, the system will not do this. A third party PR or PO will be 'account assigned' to the Sales order. SAP standard 3rd party will not create additional purchase reqs unless there has been manual intervention. Try searching for changes in the Sales order and changes in the original purchase order. They may give you a clue.
I believe the normal Item category for third party SO is TAS (I am working from memory here, I am not in front of a system). I don't know what ZTAG does. I confess I am not an SD expert. You might also want to post your question in an SD forum.
You mention two custom applications, ZMMPLAN and ZSTPMP. These somehow have functionality that is used to help you convert your PRs to POs. If I were in your position, I believe I would also look at these applications for clues to how they might be contributing to your problem. And please don't send me details about these apps. I will not comment on custom code in this forum.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

Departure country determination for 3rd party sales order
Hello,
We are creating a 3rd party sales order and using dummy plants and dummy shillping point. we do not have plants abroad activated.
While creating the intercompany billing doc the departure country is not picked up correctly since we have dummy plant and shipping point.
We want the departure country to be same as suppliers country. and we do not know the supplier details at the point of sales order creation.
what can we do to get the correct departure country during intercompany billing?
Regards,
ShilpaYou can go through OSS Note 308989 - Consulting note for cross-company transactions, which provides details on cross-company with 3rd party sales process. Make sure that the delivery plant added in the sales order is assigned to the cross company code.

Changes Allowed on the 3rd Party Sales Order when PO is created
Hello,
We have a requirement to change the Sales Order even if the PO is already created for teh 3rd party order. I am not sure which fields and what changes can we do if the PO is already created for the 3rd Party sales order.
Can you please guide me in pointing to the configuration or any user exit that we can control the field changes on the 3rd party sales order when teh PO is already created.
Thank you!
ChandrakantVenu,
FIRST ANSWER THE BELOW TWO QUESTIONS.
1. Did you understand what Shiva has mentioned?
He has clearly mentioned that you can change the PO qty and in standard it self the same PO changed qty will be reflected in Sales order schduline lines qty, and he also mentioned that if this is not happening then advised to refer the Note 1361281.
2. Did you read the note?
It says that It will occur if the sales order line item is part of the delivery group or if you have set the complete delivery indicator for the sales order. And it also advised to apply the program code to over come the issue.
Please note: before commenting others just check once in system then talk, don't just blindly through the ball, it will not have good results.
Before also mentioned the same, but you still repeating the same.
Sorry Moderators that i have mentioned some lines in the Note here.
thanks,

3rd party sales order (GL posting)
I have posted this thread in Sales forum but did not receive answer. need help urgently.
i have configured 3rd party sales order where when user enter item category as TAB, PR will automatically be created and GR goes into sales order stock in MMBE.
however, user wants the COGS during GI for this 3rd party sales goes to a separate GL account.
where can i maintain the GL account?
i have tried using obyc and simulate it in omwb however, it affects even the normal sales order since it follows the standard key combination. i'd like to know where to maintain the GL account when the stock is issued from the sales order stock in mmbe.
when i simulate through omwb, and enter the movement type 601, there seems to be 1 option for sales order (GD delivery sls.ord.) however not sure where to maintain the GL for this option.
many thanks.Hi,
As per MM scenario While creating the Purchase Requisition manual or automatic system need to select Account assignment " 1 " Third-party" after Purchase order will generate based on PO receiving the good but in this scenario the material will dispatch in customer direct so inventory will not update
please cross check the config setting in this area SPRO->Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Account Assignment/Costing -> Revenue Account Determination -

This is basically MM job (search in MMforum you will get plenty of inputs)
Automatic Conversion of PR to PO
In an effort for you to successfully use the Transaction Code ME59 to automatically convert the current PR into PO, then the following criteria should be met:
1) In the Purchasing View of the material master data, the "Autom. PO" field must be clicked;
2) In the Purchasing View of the Vendor Master Data, the "Automatic Purchase Order" field must be clicked;
3) The Outline Agreement or Purchasing Info Record shall be maintained which will allow the automatic copying of unit price and other conditions into PO;
4) The Source List shall be maintained for the nominated vendor which was shown in either the Outline Agreement or Purchasing Info Record.
or
it might be PR subject to release strategy and not yet released or
If you're not using a source list or automatic creation of PO, you may need to assign the requisition to a purchase information record using transaction ME56. Then it should appear in ME58.
For automatic PO creation from PR, follow the steps.
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.
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.

Credit Blocked 3rd Party Sales Order confirm quantity change discrepancy
Hi,
I am facing the below 3rd party SO qty change issue. Please check and advise me.
Step 1:
Created one 3rd Party SO for item A - 10 qty.
Step 2:
PO is created with reference of PR number (item A- 10 qty).
Setp 3:
Again I am changing the SO item A qty from 10 to 20 (i.e. SO value is increased).
Due Sales order value increase the credit check performed and due to customer credit
limit the system shown Static Credit Block message (SO blocked for Credit approval).
Setp 4:
I have saved the SO with the Credit Block message (still SO Credit Blocked).
Issue :
I have not released the Credit block in SO, Even the system has updated the SO confirmation qty as 20
and subsequent PR and PO also changed from 10 to 20 qty.
Regards
BaskarSee, the Credit Management System is designed to work in the SD side & not on the MM side.
Once PR is created, it is updated every time Tird party Sales Order changed which is basic requirement.
Once PR is created / updated, system (Credit Management) cannot the creation of PO & subsequent documents. This is becaus Credit Management is desinged to block creation of Sales Order, Delivery Document & PGI & nothing more.
That is why I suggested you to go to Z-Development & apply a User Exit.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks,

How can we remove an unwanted # in sales order texts created using a bapiFM
Hi,
i've written the following code which splits the record fetched from apllication server and moves it into a workarea.
CONSTANTS:c_sep VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab, "for separation
SPLIT wa_tab1-rec1 AT c_sep INTO wa_inf_itm-inf_vbeln
wa_inf_itm-itm_number
wa_inf_itm-material
wa_inf_itm-req_qty
wa_inf_itm-uom
wa_inf_itm-amount_pr00
wa_inf_itm-amount_pi02
wa_inf_itm-amount_mwst
wa_inf_itm-amount_vprs
wa_inf_itm-currency
wa_inf_itm-text.
Here c_sep will have a value '#' instead of 'space' in Flatfile from application server.
The field 'wa_inf_itm-text' though it doesnot contain any value in debugging, when the sales order is created using FM 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATE_FROM_DAT2' the item texts are having a # character at the end of the text if it has any text(when checked in va03--sales order item text) or if it doesnot contain any text ,then also # character is seen in texts.
Thanks & Regards,
Prasad Reddy.hi
use
Replace all occurrence of '#' with space from .......
I think it will solve ur problem.

Shipping Papers (BOL, Packing List) needed for 3rd Party Sales Order
The Process followed is as follows:
Plant "A" enters Sales Orders for a Customer.
Sales Orders generate the material requirement on Plant "A"
The material req gets turned into a Purchase order on External Vendor.
Vendor provides the shipment information and a goods receipt is done on Plant "A"
Once the goods receipt is entered, it closes the Sales Order and the customer invoice prints.
The goods receipt, however, does NOT produce inventory, it basically passes through directly to the Sales Order.
Now incase of a export order, need to find a way to configure so that Export Documentation can be trigeered in the form of an Output Type, in short a Delivery needs to be created.Hi Kaustubh
The answer lies in how the sales order is closed and invoice is printed when the GR is done.
Please check if it is possible to update the invoice with the information you want to be printed on the Export doc and Packing slip.If this can be acheived then you print the information out of the invoice without using the delivery.
Hope this helps.

How can I get more detail information ( Sales Order ) of Reduction of PIR??
Hi Experts,
In our company,our customer want to see more information about the reduction process for the planned independent requirements.
That means for example:
First we create 150 pc planned independent requirement for material "ABC".Then we create a sales order for material "ABC" for 20 pc.After that we do the delivery for this sales order,post the goods issue. So after the outbound delivery, the planned independent requirement for material "ABC" will reduced to 130 pc.
Although in TCODE:OMP4,we have active history is updated when planned independent requirements are reduced by a goods movement. So in MD73 we can see the withdrawal quantity 20 pc for this planned independent requirements.And in md63 we also can see the withdrawal quantity (20 pc) for this schedule lines.
But we can not see the detail information about the withdrawal quantity!!
We can not directly know this withdrawal quantity is caused by which sales order???The sales order number???
So I want to ask how can I directly see the detail information about the reduction of planned independent requirements??
That means how can I directly know this withdrawal quantity is caused by which sales order???The sales order number???
Thanks for any reply!!!Dear Liu,
check the material document posted in T Code MB51 for 601 movement.
Here you can get the details regarding the customer,and check for the same material,customer combination in T Code VA05.
Check and revert back.

Hi Folks
I have created a sales order and saved it , but it did not created a PO number after i saved and also it should not be asking the Availibility check , can anyone suggest what i might have done wrong...
Regardshi
this is to inform you that
please chec whether the item category group for the material should be BANS item category of the material in sales order will be TAS and corresponding schedule line will be CS.
if you are mising this sequence then you are missing some thing.
even though if the above are coming with Availability Chec - then chec the settings on SPRO.
because if in CS the settings will not be there for requriment/TOR/product allocation there might be in SPRO Availability Chec
please chec and revert bac.
normally it should not happen
