Creating a PO - Reference to InfoUpdate field

I would like to know what the SAP best practices are in relationship to having the InfoUpdate button automatically turned on when creating a PO?
I am not very familiar with this function; however, it is causing problems at my company because info records are being automatically created when one isn't found for a vendor and part number. These info records do not contain a plant (I do know how to fix that) and they do not have a condition price and the tax code is missing. This causes problems down the road, when something occurs and you have to try and update the info records.
Could this just be a training issue? I honestly don't believe the purchasing department knows they are creating these info records when they create a purchase order.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi,
This option can be switched off or on based on a user parameter that can be different by buyer.
You are also able to switch this off for example for PO's as for PO's the info record history is only updated and leave the function active for quotation as via quotation the info record conditions are updated from a quotation.
To create these settings goto SPRO>Material management>purchasing-->environment data -->Define default values for buyers
In the user profile you can add parameter ID "EVO" and then add the value for the default value for purchasing ID

Create Object References for Key field

Hi Experts,
Question 1- Do we have any standard task that create BOR object reference using key field?
Question 2 - If not, i have created a task with key field as import parameter and BOR type as return object reference. No i am just using macro "SWC_CREATE_OBJECT OBJREF_ARD 'AssetRequestDocument' ASSETREQUESTID." where ASSETREQUESTID is key field. OBJREF_ARD is object ref type.
Problem comes here - Its not getting instantiated, i debugged an saw it checks for logical system in the FM OWN_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_GET, i guess since SWO_CREATE is remote enabled FM it is checking for OWN_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_GET function. In our system for the client there is no logical system defined and i dont have any idea how to customize table T000 for logical system.
Note - There is nothing related to communication between two system.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks in Advance,
Pritam Kunal

Hello,
It's a method. You make a task which calls that method and passes in the BOR type and its key.
It instantiates an instance of the BOR and passes it back out.
So, no, it's not a generic BOR!

I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this?

I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this? I have 4 blocks of Single Choice fields in order for the summary page to give me each day in the final report. But, I need the user to be able to make a selection of any day and time and that apointment to no longer be available to future users when they log in. Plus, when the user clicks on the time, they are unable to change their mind and choose another time. Here's the link if you want to see what I'm talking about: 2015-2016 Workload Apportionment Review

I'm afraid not. It's not rocket science but you need to do some coding.
You'll need to find a script (php) and save it to your local site folder. Then reference the script in your form's action attribute like so.
<form action="path/form-to-email-script.php" >
The input fields in your HTML form need to exactly match the script variables.
I'm assuming you're hosted on a Linux server which uses PHP code. Linux servers are also case sensitive, so upper case names are not the same as lower case names. It's usually best to use all lower case names in your form and script to avoid confusion.

Reference Key 3 Field in Accounting Document Question

Hi Experts,
I have a problem regarding the Reference Key 3 Field (BSEG-XREF3) to be maintained for Vehicle Number Values in Accounting Documents.
My Requirement is when creating Journal Vouchers (tcode FB50): this Reference Key 3 will be filled according to the vehicle number. Example, they have JVs for Tyres (non-stock), they will put in the G/L Account and the Item Description like 'Tyre Treatment (replenishment) the quantity 2(pc), amount 40dollars and the vehicle number in the Reference Key 3 field. Then SAVE.
But I want this requirement also in the MIGO transaction during Goods Receipt. But when Goods Receipt has been made, the value of the Reference Key 3 of the accounting document is set to the YearMaterial Document CreatedLine Item.
Is it safe to change the value of Reference Key 3 during the creation of GR/GI? What is the impact to other transactions? Because I know there is a clearing tcode F.12/F.13 where it uses XREF3 for Clearing Documents.
Please Help me clarify. Thanks!

Hi SDNFI,
How is the Reference Key 3 Field being configured as making the value to the Accounting Document from posting GR in MIGO? Please indicate the configuration. Else, if there are no configuration or no way to stop the system to fill the XREF3, can I just do substitution exit for MIGO to change the Reference Key 3 Field (XREF3)?
Thanks a lot!

How to create PO with reference to Pr through BAPI

Hi everybody
I wanted to create PO with reference to PR through BAPI_PO_CREATE (4.6c), but i found there is no field to set PR info in the parameter. Is the bapi right for this case, or there are other functions?
THANKS FOR ANY ADVICE!
Best regards,
Egg

Hi abappers!
I'm using bapi BAPI_PO_CREATE1 to create PO with reference to one or more PR. I have a problem with document date:
If the delivery date of the PR is lower than creation date of PR, the document date of the PO is the delivery date (lower than sy-datum).
If the delivery date of the PR is the same or higher than creation date of PR, the document date of the PO is the creation date of PR (sy-datum or high).
I'm trying to change this date in poheader-doc_date, but the system ignores me. I'm sure this is the correct variable, because I use it to create other PO's without reference.
Another thing confuses me is that if I create the PO with reference to the same PR from ME21N, the system doesn't allow me to indicate a document date lower than sy-datum.
Thanks in advance,
Jorge

SO IDOC inbound create SO with reference to INV or SO #

Hi all,
I have a situation where I will get the inbound SO IDOC, through IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS and create a sales order with reference to a invoice number or another sales order (eg: consignment pick up and consignment fill up).
Except modifying the standard formed BDC in the FM, by adding additional screen code into the BDC, is there any other way to do so?
(eg: assign value into certain field in IDOC? Using another IDOC FM?)
Please advice.
Thanks.
Best Regards,
JL

Hi ,
At a high level, the IDOC processing executes in the following manner:
1.     Interpret IDOC header segments and captures organizational, customer master and purchase
                order header details. Performs user exits for each segment to process customizations to data
                processing.
2.     Interprets item level segments and captures item level details like material information. Again, it
               performs user exits for each segment.
3.     Sums up the order data and determines the posting criterion viz. creating order with reference
              etc.
4.     Builds up batch data communication sequence (BDC) with respect to the required screen
                sequence of posting a sales order.
5.     While building up the BDC data, system performs user exit to process customizations to BDC
                  data.
6.     Calls transactions VA01 using the BDC data.
7.     If the processing fails, an appropriate workitem is generated for workflow processing.
User Exit - ZXVEDU03
This user exit will be performed after each segment read in the IDOC processing function module. Exit is called during the perform interpret_idoc_orders in the idoc processing function module. The exit is executed before the BDC data building process and it is here where the invoice number would be retrieved into a variable from segment E1EDK02.
IF SEGMENT-SEGNAM = 'E1EDK02'.
    IF SEGMENT-SDATA(3) = 'Z43'.
       Save the you Number XXXXXXXXXX into a temporary variable.
    Endif.
Endif.
User Exit - ZXVEDU04
In the function module IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS, form call_va01_new_orders is performed wherein BDC data is built up for every screen required to post a sales order. User Exit ZXVEDU04 is performed at various stages during the built up of BDC data. It is here in this user exit that a coding needs to be performed to insert BDC data for assigning sales order to the invoice
The BDC data for assign to invoice should be added soon after the BDC data for purchase order type is generated. The following BDC data logic should be coded in the user exit to facilitate assign to invoice
if you give me brief i can help you out more.
if helpful REWARD points
Thank you .

ClearQuest v.7.0.0.1 and using reference (or reference_list) fields on report

Post Author: adhiann
CA Forum: General
Hi,
I am trying to create a report using CR11 based on one of my ClearQuest records (recA). This record is has 2 reference fields, each pointing to 2 other record types (Rec B and Rec C). At any given time, only one or the other field will be populated.
TO create a report on RecA, I select the fields I want from the field list of RecA. I can also select recB and RecC's fields as the record types are associated and their fields show up as drill downs on the association fields on RecA.
since RecA can only be associated to either RecB or RecC at any given time, I wish to add field labels on the report format and then for the data use formula that if field 1 is not null, then use recB's headline value else use RecC;s headline value etc..
However, I am encountering blank reports when I use both recb and recC's association fields. I ran several tests with different combinations of using the reference fields and determined that if I add fields from both the reference fields (recB.headline, recB.description and recC.Headline and recC.Description), the report is blank. However, if I only have either recB's fields or recC's fields, the report returns data.
The query I am associating with this report doesn't have any reference field values as filters, its pretty simple and returns a decent amount of results. so I know the problem is with Crystal reports handling reference fields.
Is it not possible to use more than one reference (or reference_list) field on a report? If it is possible, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Nandita

and therefore in this forum with minor chances to get an answer.

Create a foreign key from a field that is part of a mulitple primary key

Hi,
i had a table named T_A, with a double primary key : (A,B)
Then i created a table named T_B with a field : C.
I want this field T_B.C to take only values that already exist in field T_A.A.
So i tried to create a foreign key on my field T_B.C, pointing on the field T_A.A : an error message appeared "not possible to create a foreign key on a field that is not a primary key".
How can i solve this....? If U have any idea, please mail me !!
THANX very much.

Add column A as foreign key into the table T_BHow?
(was the question from the original poster. Adding a column to table T_B that happen to have same name as the corresponding column in table T_A would not allow you to add the foreign key).

Automatically creating PIRs by reference material forecast

Hello All,
I want to ask you about automatically created Planned Independent Requirement. I have a material number (A).
When I do "execute forecast" in MM02 for material A, the forecast values are created.
Then I run MRP from MD02 for material A.
When I looked at MD04, I saw the planned independent requirement quantites are the same as forecast values. How could it be? Can the system automatically created PIRs by reference material forecast?
For doing this, which field is need to fill in MM02?
Thank you for your support...

Hi,
can you please say which type of mrp you are using?
It is possible to use information from the sales forecast, the Sales Information System, or
other planning tools to plan production quantities.
You can use the material forecast to determine planned independent requirement quantities. You
must maintain the following data in the forecast screens in the material master record:
Number of the required forecast values
Forecast periodicity
Thanks

Is it possible to create a form with multiple form fields on a single line?

Is it possible to create a form with multiple form fields on a single line? I can't find anything in the documentation or a template that does this.
I am trying to create a "documents received" checklist with a check box on the left margin, a date-received field to the right of the check box and and a description of the document (Formatted Text) on the far right.
In the past I have entered the Fixed Text with a word processor, published it to a PDF file, then added the check box and date fields with the Acrobat Forms editor. I would prefer to use FormsCentral if it is possible.

We now support multiple fields on one line. This post provides a brief overview.
Give it a try and send us your feedback.
Sorry it took so long.

Error while creating web service reference

Hi,
I have very limited knowledge of web services. we have a BPEL implementation and I have been handed location to 3 wsdl files for which I am trying to create a web service reference(under shared component->logic) in apex(3.1.1). I am successfully able to create for 1 wsdl but for other two i get the below error.
"1 error has occurred
The WSDL document contains multiple SOAP bindings. Application Express only supports WSDL's with one SOAP binding. Click Create Web Service Reference Manually to continue creating a reference for this service."
looking at the working and not working wsdls, i see the following difference. i collapsed all the xml tags in the wsdl file and found that the one that is not working and giving above error has the below two tags twice with data in it.
<wsdl:portType name=
<wsdl:binding name=
any help to parse this wsdl in APEX be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
khan

I have just read that " APEX does not support multiple binding web services currently" at http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/category/apex/
..still reading it. though the post is dated back in 2008, I wonder why this functionality wasn't added to Apex.

Goto SPRO>CRM>Transaction>Settings for Complaints>Integration>Trnsaction Referencing>Define Object types for Transaction reference
2. Assign Business Object Types to Transaction Types
Goto SPRO>CRM>Transaction>Settings for Complaints>Integration>Trnsaction Referencing>Assign Business Object Types to Transaction Types

Reference document number field on Invoice line item

Can anyone please tell me , where in customization , do i define what should get copied in the reference document number field on the line item of an invoice.
Currently in our system, credit memo request number is getting populated for a credit memo.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi,
If you are talking about line item level, then it is called Allocation Number. At the header level, it is called Reference number.
This is controlled using the copy control for billing - at the header level control.
The reference number & allocation number once maintained in the configuration, will show up in the Accounting doc - header level & item level, respectively.
For example - if the customer payment always refers to his PO number, then it really helps to use the allocation number for the accounting doc line items - which helps in clearing incoming payment faster. In this case, the reference number could be our delivery number. This is one of the examples for using both Ref & allocation #'s.
Hope, this helps!
