Change PO number/document type

Hi,
we are using SRM 5.0, extended classic scenario.
We have defined three document(transaction) types for PO in srm.
One of them is a Dummy type-when this one is selected i need to change the type (and a number because of number ranges) of this PO depending on some conditions for items. I need to do this change propably when the PO should be stored in the backend. How can i do it? should i use outbound badi and change the number of PO? how can i get the next "free" number of PO with specified type? but i think that i will loose connection between srm PO and backend PO-so how should i update SRM PO?
thanks
JJ

You can probably do the changes already when saving the PO. I think what you can do best is to use BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI with filter BUS2201 (for PO). Do a check on sy-ucomm to decide whether the save button has been pressed or not. Here you have most of your item data available. Sometimes however some of your item data is not present in the BADI (quite annoying really), use FM BBP_PO_MEMORY_GET to get the order that is stored in memory (all screen changes are already reflected in the return data. Check the FM in
The reason I advice to use DOC_CHANGE is because you have all data available you need. In the other BADI that comes to mind BBP_DOC_SAVE_BADI you have to call several FMs to get an updated PO.
I don't know if the correct number is retrieved then, just see if it does. If so, great, if not, you can probably do something with FM GET_NEXT_NUMBER (or any variation of those words as I don't have access to a system right now).

Hi,
One thing please note that once you select the document type and draft the PR and save the PR, you will get the doc number.
Once you get the document number you cannot change the PR document type .
The reason is document type is linked with number range so it cannot be changed because different seriers of document number is assined to differentdocument type.
And moreover document type is linked with the screen settings also. So I would request you to check the settings for each doc. type

Change the reverse document type for RE.

Hi,
We want to change the reverse document type for document type RE, can any one sugget the possible negative impact.

hi
kindly note that if you are creating a new document type to be assigned as the reversal document type for RE then you need to assign the appropriate number range interval for the year.
if you are going to assign an existing document type as the reversal document type for RE then you will not be able to distingush the past and the new documents generated as both of them shall belong to the same document type.

Change of clearing document type

Hello,
Whenever I make a clearing through F-44 t-code for a down payment the document type generated is the standard AB. What should I do in order to change this document type for the same as the original one? I mean that if the document I want to clear is doc.-type DT, I want the clearing document to be DT type too.
Kind regards,

Hy,
I have just tested if change the document type for vendor in OBXH, then i posted invoice (FB60 )of Rs. 60,000 and then credit memo (FB65) Rs. 60,000, the type of invoice is KR and Credit memo is KG. After this I run clearing by F-44, and posted the clearing document and checked that system automatically took the document type defined in OBXH.
I have tested it for vendor, customers and GLs as well.
Please change the document types for GL, vendor, customer in OBXH and test it once again, I hope this will work.
Thanks

Thanks,
vatchan

Hey vatchan,
Here should be slight change to the earlie posted version.
1. Materials Management - > Purchasing -> Purchase Requisition -> Define Screen Layout at Document Level
2. select the Screen layout ME52N & copy this to new 'Felid selection group' (Say ZZZZ) and check Quantity field to be 'display' check box. (It is usually not advisable to make changes to standard 'Felid selection group')
3. Then, Materials Management - > Purchasing -> Purchase Requisition -> Define Document Types
4. define the screen layout in Field Selection Key created (ZZZZ) against the document type 'NB' and your ME52N should restrict 'quantity' field as 'Display' while other document types can still show 'Quantity' field as editable.

Kik.

Changing the material document type.

Hi All,
While creating a GR using the FM "BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE", is there any way we can set the document type (WE or WN) depending upon the company code.
Thanks in Advance
Someswara

Hi,
The short answer is no, the document types are not, and should not be, company code specific, they relate to the movement taking place rather than the company involved.
Why would you want to use a different document type?
I would imagine that it was to segregate the different company codes but surely the company code is part of the data anyway and can be used for this purpose?

PO - Document Type FO and Item Category B - Can they be transferred to SUS?

Hi SDN
We are using R/3 4.7 with SRM 5.0 - Classic Scenario and XI 4.0. We are just about to launch an SUS project to put our PO's on SUS for our suppliers. Our organization is dealing with PO's for both Goods and Services. As we know that there are no problems about putting the GR-Type PO's (NB type) on SUS but I would like to know if it is possible to transfer PO's that would be from the Document Type FO and Item Category B (Blanket PO) to SUS and ensure that our suppliers can do the entire PO Acknowledgement, PO Change and post the Invoice via SUS. If not, what are the options for our R/3 - SUS installation?
Thanks!

Change PO document type

Dear All,
At one of my client we are able to change the PO document type for some PO's and for some PO's we are not.
generally we can not chnage the PO document type once PO is saved. But this is happening, how it is happening and why it is allowed for some PO.
If anybody has idea please let me know.
Thanks in advance

Umesh

Check the Filed Selection for ME22N Tcode at
Spro>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Order>Define Screen Layout at Document Level
If You set the Document type filed as Optional then you can Edit,
If the Number ranges are Same for the Document type then only System will allow you to change.
Otherwise even the Document type is in Edit mode Still It will not accept other Document with Different Number range

Changing PO Document type layout programatically

Hii,
My requirement is to change the PO Document type layout programetically. We have customized the standard PO Print report and for that we have created one customized style sheet. We have done the same for 4 types of document types : standard, Contract etc. Now while moving our code into another instance we need to set out custom stylesheet template to the corresponding Document type. Any one have any idea how can we do that from backend? We don't want to update the standard tables as Oracle does not support it.
This is very urgent.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Change document type within transaction ABSO

Current situation :

To be :
Change the document type to AF.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks,

Hello Mukthar,
Thank you for your quick response.
Do you mean when I make a repeat run of AFAB or AFAR it will create a AF document ?
But then why is it showing the amount 0 on the movement type but on the unplanned depreciation field the correct amount ?
Is there something need to be done ?

Sanjay

Change document type (BKPF-BLART)

Hello,
I have the following problem:
One of our customers has established a new process. for an invoice which was posted with MIRO he wants to change the accounting document type (bkpf-blart) depending on the purchase order type.
My first idea was to use the <i>BTE 00001120 DOCUMENT POSTING: Field substitution header/items</i>.
There I have acces to all fields I need for my condition check. Unfortunately I have detect, that the strucutre for the substitutable fields (BKPF_SUBST) doesn't contain the field BLART.
Is there another way to change the document type?
Regards,
Sven

Hi Sven,
You can actually create your own substitutable fields by fiddling with table GB01. If there is a record already existing for BLART you have to make the field BEXCLUDE blank. If not add the record with BLART (you can check some other substitutable field as reference). Use SE16 or create a Z program. Once this is done it can be substituted.
Note however there is an SAP note stating that the customer is responsible for such changes. However I have seen companies use this for BLART (and sometimes even HKONT!) and there has been no problems.

Alternate document type for MRP requisition

Our purchase scenario is that all MRP purchased items must have an approved contract to move to a purchase order. In 95% of the cases, this will be true, but there will be that 5% that, due to expiration of the contract or quantity/value exceeded, a valid, approved contract will not be available. However, the purchase must still proceed.
Our thought is to create an alternate requisition type that the buyer could change the MRP requisition document to. This new document type would then be subject to requisition release strategy.
However, using an MRP generated requisition (creation indicator B), the document does not allow change of the document type. The new document type is a complete copy of the NB document type used in MRP proposal planning, including the number range. The only difference is that the new document type is subject to requisition release.
Changing the document type at the MRP group level won't solve the problem as very few materials will actually require this change. It would be temporary until the existing contract could be extended and approved or a new one created and approved. Also, it seems that the MRP group setting affects only the purchase order and not the requisition.
Is there a way for us to make this process work more smoothly than to have to copy the items from the NB document type to the alternate document type manually?

Assuming you have a material master involved, why not try MRP Group in TCode OMDT. You can assign the group to the material and that group can determine the PR type that is created.
