Confirmations for Limit Orders in ECS

In extended classic scenario when creating a limit order, there is an error in process in the local PO related to the follow-on documents for goods receipt with the following error message:
'Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services'
It is only possible to create the order in the backend if the Invoice Only option is selected in the Limit Order, but then this means it is not possible to create a confirmation for Limit Orders!
Has anyone else come across this problem in ECS for limit orders? As far as I am aware the functionality should work with GR-based invoice verification. In the backend PO it is possible to create the same order without any errors!

Monica,
My analysis till now is:
1) It is true that limit oders are not going with "Confirmation & Invoice" flag. We need to raise OSS.
(There is one additional problem with this is "The vendor master flags don't get transferred to PO" for this you will have to implement the OSS notes 956083.)
Now after applying this notes you see the standard functionality:
2) If we are creating PO with "Invoice Only" flag then there are follwoing options:
a) If the "GR based invoice" flag in vendor master is checked then the POs goes into D item category and you can enter a service sheet for them.
b) If the "GR based invoice" flag in vendor master is NOT checked then the POs goes into B item category and you can enter invoice just after PO.
I made change in V_T163Y for B item category and checked the flag for GR but then too I am not able to enter GR for item category B.
Please assign points for useful answer as applicable.

Confirmation for Limit PO

Hi,
While posting a confirmation for limit PO, if I tried to add items from a catalog then I I am getting the error "Incorrect transfer of limit data from calling application". Are there any specific OCI settings required for this?
In the link https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/011000358700005436392003E.pdf ...I could see that there is a presentation for "Access to catalog via OCI during confirmation" at the top of page 4. But not sure where can I find that PPT in service.sap.com.
Could you please help me in this?
thanks,
Arun

Gil,
We found that, only service items can be added to limit confirmation as in backend R/3 service POs will get created which will accomodate only service items.
You need to create contract and catalog with service items. Then only it will get added to limit confirmation.
Hope this would help you.
Thanks,
Arun

Progress confirmation for process order

Hello to all,
I want to use the progress confirmation functionality for process order. I know that it is possible for production orders, but I couldn't find respective transaction for process order. Do you know if it is possible to use progress confirmation for process orders.
BR,
Nikolay

Thanks for your inputs, but they are not useful!
COR6 - it cannot be used once the order is confirmed at phase level;
COOISPI - it's a report
COR6N -it is the standard transaction for process order confirmation
I want to do so-called "unplanned milestone" for process orders, something similar to CO1F for production orders.

Good Receipt for Limit orders/Framework orders

Hello Guruz,
Is it possible to have GR for Limit orders/Framework orders?
Regards

Hello,
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 Account 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 controlled by tolerance keys LA and LD in the T.Code:OMR6 for your Company Code.
In SAP, Blanket Purchase Orders 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.
no Goods Receipt (GR) will take place, the GR indicator is switched off when the item category B is selected.

Production confirmations for Production order

Hi all
I am using ECC 6.0 and Production orders. When I do a final confirmation to the order the order is in a 'CNF' status. Now after it is in a CNF status if I try to perform another confirmation using a CO15 then it allows me to do a confirmation with a 'warning'. If I am using a CO11 or CO11N then its a hard error. Is there a way I can get a warning message on a already Final confirmed order in tcode CO11 or CO11N?
thanks

Hi John,
You want the system to allow to confirm operation wise even though you have already confirmed with respect to order
I dont think its possible,because if you see logically -once we do the confirmation for the order system will complete the confirmation for operations too ie it will book the time,cost to the respective cost center
So logically it will not be possible to confirm the operations which are already confirmed when doing the order confirmation
If you want to do order wise confirmation then you have to cancel the order confirmation & then you will be able to do operation wise confirmation
Hope the above explantion is understandable
Revert back if you have further query
Reward points if useful

Change in account assignment for Limit Order SRM not replicated to backend

User has made in SRM (5.0 Ext Classic scenario) a limit shopping cart with Invoice and Confirmation and Acc. assigment 'Known' . This resulted in a PO with has been replicated to backend . In MM PO with Imtem category 'D' has been created.
The user know reports that he has made wrong account assignment and asks for change so that the new cost assigment appears in his Confirmations as proposal.
Normally I am able to do this through Tx 'process purchase order' (BBP_POC) in SRM and it is properly replicated to backend - meaning PO in MM is updated with new cost assigment
However for this limit order the changes I have made in BBP_POC seems not to be replicated into backend and hence on goods receipt it still shows the old assigment.
Anyone an idea of cause for this?
Thanks in advance for any reply or help

Hello,
1) Are you seeing any errors in rz20.
2) You may consider transferring the PO again to the backed using the function module BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC.
3) If you see any account assignment errors , check the account assignment in SRM and ERP PO are the same or as mapped in the table BBP_C_ACC

Confirmation for Service Order

Hi Gurus,
How to create follow-up document of Confirmation for a service order in IC Agent role
Thanks,Sarat

You could use the left navigation bar to go to service confirmation tab and just click create on service confirmations, the prerequisite is you must be on the service order from which u want to create Confirmation, this will link up all the transactions your interaction record
Second way of doing it, is click on followup document from service order to create service confirmation prerequisite here is that you must have the configuration ready for creating follow up documents
Thanks

Generating Inbound delivery based on Vendor Confirmation for Purchase order

Is there a way to create Inbound deliveries based on Vendor confirmation for a purchase order.
Here is the complete scenario.
Buyer Creates the PO for qty 100 and Date August 29
Vendor Confirms that he can supply a qty of 50 for August 29 and remaining 50 for Sep15th
Based on vendor confirmation, Buyer creates 2 vendor confirmations (AB) to match with the data received from Buyer, without modifing the PO.
Requirement:
Inbound deliveries should get created based on the vendor confirmation.
As MRP looks at Inbound delivery for Planning purposes once they are available, Inbound delivery should match with vendor confirmation data.
Is it possible to get this requirement met with standard config available in SAP.

could you eventually get the answer from the docu Set Up Confirmation Control

Goods Receipt after Completion Confirmation for Service Order

Hi,
We have a scenario in which a Notification is used to create a Sales Order & a Service Order using the action button.
The Sales Order has a old/used product as a line item which we will consume along with some other new parts(added in the components tab in Service Order) to make a remanufactured product which we will obtain after using IW42 for Completion Confirmation. (The Service order is to carry the cost of refabrication/refurburishment & additional parts as well)
We need to do Goods receipt of this remanufactured product to bring it into stock so that we can deliver the same using the same sales order.
Is this possible? We have tried using Refurbishment order both CS/PM but have not been successful in inwarding the remanufactured product using IW8W.
Kindly do suggest possibility of using a Service Order(created through a notification) with a GR feature for the above process of inwarding. Any alternate suggestions would also be very helpful.
If this functionality can be achieved with some enhancement(custom exit, BADI etc) & some amongst you have worked on something similar , please do share your valuable inputs
Thanks & Best Wishes
Vishal

Hi
I dont think you will be able to do Goods receipt against prodcution order using inbound delivery VL31N. Inbound deliveries are normally created for Purchase orders and then GR can be posted wrt to the inbound delivery.
Prod order is normally within warehouse only so you can use MB31 and post GR directly against Prod order.
If you can explain more about your scenario hope we may help
Please let us know
thanks

EDI Confirmation for Purchase Order

Hi All,
Scenario : Our vendor is located abroad. The Purchase order is transmitted to the vendor via EDI. The vendor sends a confirmation for the PO as an IDOC via EDI. The suitation we have is that there are instances where there is a miss match( Requested item doesn't match the confirmed item) between the item in the PO and the IDOC received from the vendor as confirmation. But the PO is still confirmed. Is there a method where we identify when there is a miss match in the item.
Any input on the above would be appreciated.
Thanks
Nigel

Hi Nigel,
You could control this via customizing purchasing->Confimrations->Setup confirmation using SPRO.
here ,you can specify the tolerance for price quantity and material.
The tolerances you define apply to all vendors. Using the enhancement MM06E001 provided by SAP, you can specify that the tolerances do not apply to certain vendors.
If the acknowledged quantities, prices, and dates vary from those set out in the PO or purchase agreement, the system issues a warning message. In this case, the purchasing document is not updated.

Karuna
