CIF: ECC Material without plant assignment

Hi Experts,
i have a question regarding to CIF'ing of ECC materials to APO.
Is it possible to CIF ECC materials to APO without an assignment of a plant to this material? If yes, how is this possible?
We have several materials without such an assignment maintained in ECC (material group packiging material) and they are needed in APO.
Kind regards
Jens

Jens,
When I say 'planning system', I am not talking about predictabiity. I am talking about the generic term concerning the management of supply and demand (which is mostly what APO does).
In ECC, a packaging material is not normally treated as a resource. It is a material. It is unclear to me how you are using packaging materials to represent resources.
A Product master can exist in APO without locations assigned. Therefore, I suspect that using enhancements, it might be possible to CIF across only MARA data and not MARC data, but I have never tried it. Perhaps one of the other Gurus can offer additional insights.
Best Regards,

Bills of material without plant.

Hi,
what is the impact to create a Bill of Material without Plant ?
Best regards

Hi,
Special features of group BOMS:
A plant check is not carried out for the materials in a
group BOM.
A group BOM is not exploded in material requirements
planning and in the production order.
Group bills of material are mainly created in the design
phase and then later assigned to one or more plants for
production.
A collection of bills of material that lets you describe a
product or a number of similar products.
The following bills of material comprise a BOM group:

Marco Antonio Trois Endres

Hi ,
This seems to be a Material Management configuration question, I dont know if this will answer it
You will have to configure the Characteristics of your Material from a task list and transfer/Copy it to your Certificate profile,
there has to be a feature to enter the desired selection Criteria based on your question
Work with the security team if your MM_G and MM_S class objects can help open or close certain authroization objects to achieve your goal.
in one of the google search it states that
"This can be done from Extras Characteristics from your task list.
A dialog box appears for entering the selection criteria for the task list"
Will Need more security related information to help you on this.

Material PR transfer from ECC to SRM without Account Assignment

Hello,
When a material PR without account assignment is transferred to SRM. The scenario is determined as direct procurement and system will behave in extended classic scenario.
I would need the PO to be posted in backend ie Classic scenario.
We are in SRM 7.0 using SOA PR transfer from ECC EHP 4 system.
I believe there is consulting note available for this scenario. If any body has the note number please share it.
Thanks,
Rohith

Symptom
While running Materials Replenishment Planning (MRP) purchase requisitions (PR) will be created in SAP ERP (e.g. after creating a Planned Order in MD10).
Before SAP SRM 7.0 these requisition got the field EPROFILE assigned which enabled the system to extract the PR document to SAP SRM by using report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER. As of SAP SRM 7.0 and SAP ERP 6.04 you configured Business Add-In ME_REQ_SOURCING_CUST to trigger SOA message PurchaseRequestERPSourcingRequest_Out.
After running MRP you notice that no sourcing request SOA message got generated.
Other terms
SOA, MRP, Sourcing, external sourcing,
BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER, EPROFILE
MD10, MD14, MD04
Reason and Prerequisites
Program error.
Solution
Due to complexity it is not possible to provide a SAP core correction. However PP-MRP application provides a BAdI interface that gives the possiblity to trigger this functionality of external sourcing.
If you need to use the external sourcing with SAP MRP create a new implementation for BAdI MD_PURREQ_POST and inherite from the class provided in attached correction instruction.

1263876 - SAP SRM: Configuration of Procure-to-Pay Scenario
Note 1504247 - ME54/ME55 does not trigger sourcing SOA message

PR: Procurement w/o material from vendor with plant assignment not defined

Hi,
Getting the error message: 06806 - Procurement w/o material from vendor with plant assignment not defined
while creating the PR with account assingment (P- project) & without material no. instead entering the short text in the PR.
this issue (Error message) is getting to only one user.
question-1: Is it possible to set the Error messages to the user specific. Because other users are able to create the PR with the above inputs, but the one user is not able to create instead getting the above E- Msg.
question-2: Is it possible to set the messages to Plant specific instead quesiton -1 or both
Or else, please let me know how to deactivate the above E-msg to the specific user.
Please do the needful asap.
Regards,
Sapsrin

Hi,
As you noticed, note 856962 has changed the system behaviour
when you are working with procurement w/o material from vendor with
plant assignment.
Items without a material master record can only be ordered from vendors
without a plant assignment.
This note will stop your users from creating service purchase orders
for a vendor who has a Plant assigned in the vendor master, issuing
the error message 06 806.
you can check the below code:-
LMEPOF23
IF ekpo-ematn IS INITIAL AND
      ( aktyp EQ hin OR ekko-reswk NE oekko-reswk OR      "856962
     ( aktyp EQ hin OR NOT ekko-reswk IS INITIAL OR        "856962
        ekko-bsakz NE oekko-bsakz OR
        gf_extended_check NE space ).
    PERFORM enaco_2(sapfmmex) USING '06' '806'.

Assigning material to Plant

Hi,
Iam trying to create a purchase order. For that after selecting the material. It is showing an error that "material xyz not maintained in plant abc". For this I want to know how to assign a material to a plant. In addition to that, I would like to know before assigning a material to plant,what all is needed to be done. please give reply in detail as Iam totally new to it...
Regards,
Kaushik Sreeram

Hi Kaushik
I have been seeing your posts since y'day, I think you have just started learning SAP and at each step you are stucking and taking gudence from forum. But I didnt find that you have not given rewards to anyone.
please reward to each useful answer as way to say thanks.
coming to your question, since you have created PO with account assignment (otherwise valuation area is not checked for quantity and value updating in OMS2 transaction code), system is asking to assign correct GL account and cost cetre.
what is material type you are using? first of all let us know do you want create purchase order for account assignment or for stock? if it is for accunt assignment, you need to choose correct cost centre, If it is for stock , first go to OMS2 and chose material type and click on quantity and value updating.
chose valuation area (plant), check quantity updating and value updating and save,
Then you can create PO, it wont ask account assignment.
Good luck

Acct Assign of material without material master

Dear all:
Here's the scenario
In IMG setting, I assigned my own accout modification (CIP) to my own account assignment category (0)
and I made configuration in auto posting OBYC to assign GBB/CIP to G/L account for no specific valuation class.
And when I create a PO to purchase a material without mateirla master with accout assignment category (0) and material group.
The system only auto assign G/L account to material group which no valuation class was assigned in OME9 (Entry aids without material master in MM IMG setting)
But I read the PA material it says "If you do not want to differentiate according to valuation classes you do not have to maintain a valuation class for a transaction."
Yes, I don't want to differentiate according to valuation classes, but the system result is not what I expected.
Any response might be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Hi Utsav
Hope you are aware of the field G/L account in Account assignment tab in PO.
G/L account will be automatically populated here based on the Material grp you use for the PO without Material master.
System will check the valuation class assigned to material grp ( Tcode OMQW) then the system will look for the G/l account in OBYC
Transaction event key GBB/Genral modifier/Valuationcls/Gl acc..
If there is an entry with Genral modifier ( from account assignment category) and valuation class ( from material grp) then the system will pick this G/L and
populate it in PO account assignment tab.
This G/L account will be used for further postings
Hope it is clear
Thanks/karthik

Profit center for purchase order without account assignment

I've requirement to include profit centers in purchase orders without account assignment category.
The trouble is when there is no profit center maintained in material master.
Is there a way to determine profit center in purchase order for such cases?

Dear Abinash,
Define substitution in GGB1 at line item level as shown below:
Prerequisite : BSEG-WERKS = Maintain plant
Substitution : BSEG-PRCTR = maintain profit centre as constant value
After define it, assign to the co.code.

Missing connection of Material in Plant to Material Ledger

Hi,
We encountered an error when doing GR for PO without Account assignment.
Error: Missing connection of Material in plant to the material ledger.
Issue: Not able to post goods receipt for materials for particular Plant D059 with HIBE material type for purchase order without account assignment.
Materials were setup before value update selected for HIBE material type for plant X and hence price determination was blank in Material master.
client was unable to create purchase requisition for these materials andfound value update was not selected for this material type for this plant.
Later when value update was selected for HIBE for Plant X, Goods receipt cannot be posted with reference to PO without account assignment. But able to do MIGO-GR for account assigned Purchase orders.
After value updating for this material type for this plant X, purchase requisitions and orders were created but unable to do goods receipt for PO without account assignment. Goods receipt can be posted
for Purchase orders with account assignment.
Now we are unable to do change price determination for material attachedto HIBE material type.
Please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Thanks and regards, Muthuvel

Hi Bharat,
Again Thanks for the immediate reply.
As I have mentioned earlier, when the stock update was done for this material type, the material was created and it didnt have any value in ML Act and Price determination.
Material ledger was activated to production.
when the client found they were not able to create PR with account assignment, then value update was selected for this material type.
Now there is a problem in Goods receipt for PO without account assignment.
Whereas there is no problem in GR for PO with account assignment.
I cannot do now CKMM also since the present price determination is a mandatory field and blank is no accepted.
Please help.
Regards, Muthuvel

Material without material master record

Dear All,
i want material without material master record by using account assignment category k. how can i do that. item category should be standard. i will use another material group with a different valuation class.
regards,
qsm sap

Hi,
In ME21N, In case of w/o material master purchases (Text Purchases), do not enter material code in PO, Enter following details;
Account Assignment Category (For e.g. K - Cost Center),
Item Category - Blank
Short Text,
Quantity,
UoM,
Material Group,
Plant,
Gross Price, etc...
Then Save it.
2. MIGO - GR w.r.t. PO
It will Debit Expense A/c and Credit GR/IR Clearing A/c.
3. MIRO - LIV w.r.t. PO
It will Credit Vendor A/c and Debit GR/IR Clearing A/c.
And if you want account determination on the basis of material group then do following config.
SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Material master > Entry Aids for Items without an material master > here assign different valuation classes to different material groups as per your Accounting requirement.
And then do necessary account determination in OBYC for the Valuation classes, T/E Key "GBB" and Val. modifier "VBR"

Is it possible to activate Batch Management for a material without Class?

Dear Experts,
Is it possible to activate Batch Management for a material without having Class & Characteristics maintained. As my requirement is to procure Fuels in Batches only with external no. assignment without any parameters to be checked at the time of Goods Receipt? Batches are needed for Accountability purpose.

Please check this answered link:
Batch-classification view
If you want classify a batch, then you should have maintained the batch classification in material master which is either class 022 or class 023 (depends on your batch level set in cusotmizing). The material class 001 has no impact on the batch classifcition, it is what it is: a classification for the material.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE A PO WITHOUT PLANT

HELLO EXPERTS,
I have following business scenario,,
for a material X , price for plant A is 20 rupees and for other plant 25 rupees.
I have created one info record for that .
PLANT SPECIFIC INFO RECORD (plant A) 20 rupees
INFO RECORD (WITHOUT ANY PLANT ) 25 rupees
but when i going to make a PO it will ask for plant , and after i giving the plant name it will pick the plant specific value(20 rupees). So I cant able to do the 2nd scenario, i mean ..with 25 rupees.
As I know that it is not possible to make a purchase order without PLANT.
SO IS THERE ANY ALTERNATIVE WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
again in my screen layout setting ( standard purchase order NB / NBF ). IN BASIC item PLANT HAS OPTIONAL ENTRY NOT REQUIRED ENTRY.Than why it is asking that plant is mandatory when i m making a standard PO.
plz hepl me
regards

Hi,
Without entering the Plant you cann't create the PO. Plant is mandatory.
If your Materials is maintained in 2 Plant then the Price in both the plants is different (20 & 25)
So in the same PO you can enter the 2 line items with the same material and enter the 2 plants respectiviely with the net price as 20 & 25 (or will pick from Info record)
If you want same material is valuated in 2 price in single plant you can use the Split valuation method ( Val category & valuation type )
