Creating an SRM Purchase Order with a Return Line

Is it possible within standard SRM to create a purchase order with a 'Returns Item' line?
I know it's possible in R/3 but really need to create it via SRM.
Regards

We are using the Extended Classic Scenario of SRM (and the Sourcing Cockpit) which therefore means that we won't be creating requisitions within R/3.
In the R/3 PO you can create a line item as a 'Returns Line' (MEPO1211-RETPO)
The standard help text is as follows:
Logistics - General (LO)
The returned goods from a customer to an internal or external vendor.
Returns can be divided into the following types, according to vendor and recipient:
Customer returns
Returns to vendor
Returns for stock transfers
I know we can use a BADI to mark this flag in R/3 but for completeness really want to show this as a returns line in SRM too.

Purchase order with variable value line item

Hello experts,
In SRM 7.0 extended classic scenario after PO approval Is it possible to create a line item with such that even if we change the value(increase/decrease) it wont trigger approval workflow .We needed this because we don't know the exact value for transport such that if the value is modifiable it would help us.At the time of GR it is possible if value is below but if value is more than tolerance then we have to re order the PO then it will go through full approval cycle again we dont want that.Please tell is there any way to create such line item.
Thanks and Regards,
Shiva

Hello,
Are you integrating SUS also for the follow on processes after PO creation or you will be doing the same in ERP ?
If yes then you can achieve this with SRM - SUS integration scenario, by making use of the Limits items with transport as service, where the PO will be created with the certain limit value defined by the purchaser and later vendor can consume the same against the services like varying transport costs within that defined limit in the Purchase order response.
This will not trigger the Approval process again.

Problem creating Purchase Order with Bapi_po_create Return Message is ""

Hello everybody
When I get to create PO with bapi_po_create . I get this message in the return parameter :"Enter the PURCH_ORG".
I think that I have implemented it very well but I don´t get the results that I was expected : No PO was created.
Please see the following codes and let me know if something is wrong. Thanks .

Hi,
When we use BAPI_PO_CREATE1 to create service PO, following tables are populated at item level:
a) POITEM
b) POITEMX
c) POACCOUNT
d) POACCOUNTX
e) POSERVICES
f) POSRVACCESSVALUES
For service items: POITEM-PCKG_NO = u20180000000001u2019. (assign package no as a dummy number)
Set PCKG_NO flag in POITEMX table as u2018Xu2019.
Package No is the link that connect POITEM table to POACCOUNT table through tables POSERVICES and POSRVACCESSVALUES.
Set POACCOUNT-SERIAL_NO to u201801u2019.
Set same PCKG_NO to u20180000000001u2019 in POSERVICES table. Maintain two entries in POSERVICES table like this:
WA_POSERVICES-PCKG_NO = u20180000000001u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-LINE_NO = u20180000000001u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-OUTL_IND = u2018Xu2019.
WA_POSERVICES-SUBPCKG_NO = u20180000000003u2019. (Dummy No.)
WA_POSERVICES-QUANTITY = u2018100.000u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-BASE_UOM = u2018EAu2019.
WA_POSERVICES-PRICE_UNIT = u20181u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-GR_PRICE = u2018100.000u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-SHORT_TEXT = u2018SERVICE TESTu2019.
APPEND WA_POSERVICES TO IT_POSERVICES.
WA_POSERVICES- PCKG_NO = u20180000000003u2019.
WA_POSERVICES- LINE_NO = u20180000000002u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-QUANTITY = u201810.000u2019.
WA_POSERVICES- BASE_UOM = u2018EAu2019.
WA_POSERVICES--PRICE_UNIT = u20181u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-GR_PRICE = u2018100.000u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-SHORT_TEXT = u2018SERVICE 1u2019.
WA_POSERVICES-MATL_GROUP = u20180012u2019.
APPEND WA_POSERVICES TO IT_POSERVICES.
Set PCKG_NO as SUB_PCKG_NO in table POSRVACCESSVALUES this:
WA_POSRVACCESSVALUES-PCKG_NO = u20180000000003u2019.
WA_POSRVACCESSVALUES-LINE_NO = u20180000000002u2019.
WA_POSRVACCESSVALUES-SERNO_LINE = u201801u2019.
WA_POSRVACCESSVALUES-SERIAL_NO = u201801u2019.
WA_POSRVACCESSVALUES-QUANTITY = u201910.000u2019.
APPEND WA_POSRVACCESSVALUES TO IT_ POSRVACCESSVALUES.
This logic will work definitely and PO Service Items will be created.
Thanks & Regards.

Converting Multipule Reqs to a Purchase Order with Delivery Schedule Lines

Is it possible to convert a multiple Purchase Reqs for the same items to a PO that has one line but multipule deliver dates in the Schedule lines - Where the Purchase Reqs have been generated by MRP
Example
I have an SAP Contract 46***** that runs via MRP and creates 3 Reqs for item number 12345. All from the same vendor
             Req 1 delivery date 2/4/10 QTY 50
             Req 2 delivery date 6/4/10 QTY 20
             Req 3 delivery date 10/4/10 QTY 30
Aim is to have 1 PO with line 1 having a QTY 100 but the Delivery Schedule Tab to show the three seperate delivery needs
            date 2/4/10 QTY 50
            date 6/4/10 QTY 20
            date 10/4/10 QTY 30
Any Help?

When i try that the QTY in line one does not alwasy update to the total qty of the reqs and infact the qty on the req doesnt always appear in the schedule line....
This works for me perfect, I never encountred that the item quantity was not updated if I added a new requisition to the schedule.
ME59N should work, do not select per requistion and per delviery date in the New PO section in the selection screen. But set a flag into box create schedules.

Create service purchase order with negative value

Hello,
we created a service purchase order using the specific item category (value D) and with the service number details. We posted the entry service sheet with the transatcion code ML81N and we did the invoice verification.
Now we need to reverse this document flow: in particular our requirement is to create a new purchase order (like a return order for goods) and then to post an entry service sheet with the opposite sign (both cost center and G/L account).
Do you know whick document type I can use or how i can meet this requirement? Please consider that I cannot reverse the original document but I need to create new ones.
Thanks in advance,
Alessandro

ME21N Create Purchase Order with reference to previous Purchase Order

Hello Expert,
Previously have been using Purchase Info Records for reference when creating Purchase Orders using ME21N. We then have deleted the Pricing Condition in the Purchase Info Record using ME12. Now when we are trying to create a new Purchase Order with the same values (Vendor, Material, Plant and Storage Location), the transaction code ME21N automatically fetches the previous values of the Pricing Condition as if it was cached. I remember of studying this in the MM academy but I am not sure how to disable it.
This error only happens when we are creating the first Purchase Order after the deletion, for the second Purchase Order, error will be prompted to the user saying that the Pricing Condition could not be found.
I would like to ask where in configuration can I delete this cache behaviour or is that any work around for this.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Antony,
I found the "Update Prices" function in the Conditions Tab of the Item Details helps to refresh the data and fetch the new information from the Purchase Info Record. I would like to ask is there anyway to provoke this function automatically everytime when a user runs the transaction ME21N.
Thanks in advance again.

Validity start & end, in Purchase Order with limit

Hi All,
We are using a model of SAP with one type of Purchase Order: we have created a new type of purchase order (ZFOA), that we use for all purchase orders.
Now we want to use ZFOA also for Blanket Purchase Order, instead of the standard type proposed for this scope by SAP (FO).
We have inserted Validity Start & Validiti End as Optional Entry in Customizing.
( IMG - MM - Purchasing - Purchase Ordrer - Define Screen Layout at Document Level).
We have inserted them as Optional Entries, and not as Required Entries, because they are Required only for Blanket Purchase Order. (and we use ZFOA for all ours types of Purchase Order)
So i want to know if it's possible to connect the obligatory requirement of these two entries to:
- ZFOA (type of Purchase Order)
- B (Item category in Purchase Order)
In this way:
1) when i create a PO (ZFOA) without item category B --> Validity date & Validity End are not obligatory fields
2) when i create a PO (ZFOA) with item category B ---> Validity date & Validity End are obligatory !!
Have you got any Solutions??
Best regards
Alba

Thanks very much!
Now i found in MM SAP Manual (SCM 520, Purchasing) a similar example, and it could seem possible:
When creating a standard purchase order with the standard item category, the following field selection key is determined for the Material group field:
Field selection key ME21N (Create/Change Purchase Order transaction):
The Material Group field is an optional field.
Field selection key AKTH(Create activity category):
The Material Group field is an optional field.
Field selection key NBF (purchasing document type NB):
The Material Group field is an optional field.
Field selection key PT0F (item category Standard):
The Material Group field is a mandatory (required-entry) field.
The combination of field selection keys ME21N, AKTH and NBF means that the field is an optional field. Because the Material Group field is defined as a mandatory field in the field selection key PT0F however, this means that the field requires an entry when a purchase order is being created.
I have the same problem for Validity start field, but why if i do all of this things, the field remain not mandatory?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
ALba

Service purchase order with quantity

Hi all,
Is it possible to create a service purchase order with quantity ?
Our client is using sap b1 2005b pl39.
Expecting you all valuable reply.
Jeyakanthan

Hi, Jeyakanthan,
I guess there are 2 ways out for this:
1. Define the Service as an item ...i.e. create aitem master for it.Then you can define the quantities for it.
2. Use a UDF in the service type document as quantity and put a FMS to calculate the qty.

SRM Local Purchase Order with both a standard line item and limit item...

In SRM is it standard that you can create a local purchase order from the sourcing cockpit that contains a mix of limit items and standard items?
I know this can be done in R/3.

Paul,
I am a functional/business person, and we are running SRM550 in extended classic, linking to ERP backed.
From our business point of view it makes little sense to mix a limit item with one or more standard catalog item. SAP standard SRM 550 actually stops our users from doing this.
For those who are not aware of the differences I will elaborate.
A standard item is either from a Free Text entry process with the process being completed by a professional purchaser or a catalog item either internal to SRM, or maybe from an external website.
Limit orders are value based and are mostly used for the payment of Utility bills, or for services. We don't use services at all.
In our business we use limit orders for an Electricity Bill for example.
When the user confirms a limit order the quantity should always be 1 and the user enters the value of the item.
The Invoice entry team then needs to match the Invoice to the GR line. It's at this point that if you have Limit items and standard items mixed our invoice entry team could run into problems.
We are aware that it is not recommended practice for Limit orders to have GR and if you can avoid this step then you should. Unfortunately our operating model insist on everything being confirmed and in the case of limit orders this can cause us invoice blocking issues.
Limit orders are normally set up to run for a full FY so the addition of standard catalog items to a limit order makes little or no business sense.
If a user added two limit items to a shopping cart for the same supplier our system would produce two PO's for the supplier to use.
We actually avoid transmitting Limit order details to our suppliers as this would indicate the maxiumum value they could invoice us for, businesses just don't do that. We just send them the PO number and description of the item. This provides them with a PO Ref number to puton their invoices.
As we are still running SRM 550 maybe someone with SRM 7 knowledge would care to expand on this analysis?
Hope this helps?
Allen
PS We don't use the Sourcing Cockpit, just read your earlier response
