Default Material Group based on PO Doc Type

Dear Experts,
Is there any standard configuration available to default Material Group in PO based on Document Type. I checked the forum, one of the earlier posts is suggesting Enhancement, but I am looking for Configuration.
I cannot use IMG--> Materials Management --> External Services Management --> Source Determination and Default Values --> for Purchasing Organizations, since it is already used by Freight team.
Please advise.
Manish

Hello Manish,
As already mentioned by all members that this is not possible by using Standard Configuration. What you can do is if this material group is going to be used everytime by the Purchase Department users, then you can ask them to make this default in their personal settings in ME21 Tcode. Every time they will execute the transaction system will default this material Group. The same can be done for doc type also.

  • Defaulting material group in Purchase requisition

    Hi experts,
    I need to default material group of a purchase requisition as '6HA' if the asset assignment category is 'A' . Doing this by the personal settings option in ME51n is not what I require. Could you please suggest me of an appropriate BADI or exit to achieve the same where in I can perform my required validations as well.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Puja

    Hi,
    Did you copy the class manually?
    How did you implement this badi?
    This BADI should be called while creating the PR/before saving the PR.
    Enahncements are not assigned in SPRO.
    The link between the transaction and badi would exists already, and when you write some code in any interface of this badi, and activate the implementation.....it should be called automatically during the transaction processing, provided it meets the criteria.
    You can check whether your PR is reaching this implementation or not by putting breakpoint in the badi implementation.

  • How to stop G/L from defaulting material group in work orders

    Whenever we create a work order, the material group is pulled from the material master. But, if we have a component on a work order and don't enter in a material number, the material group defaults to electric supplies. From my research, it looks like it is doing this defaulting based upon the default G/L account assigned to components of work orders. Does anyone know how to stop this defaulting?
    I might be completely off and it's not related to G/L which in that case this is not the correct forum, so if someone is knowledgeable about this let me know and I can switch the forum areas.
    Thanks,

  • MM-SRV: Adopt Material Group from Service Master instead of default in SPRO

    At my current client we are encountering a problem when creating requisitions for services.  When the system was originally configured years ago, a default value for material group was entered in the IMG under:
    Logistics > Materials Management > External Services Management > Source Determination and Default Values > For Client
    Field is "Default material group at item level" (V_T165-MATKL)
    Up to now this singular default value was fine because they only had one material group for services.  They are now wanting to further stratify their services spend, so there are now several additional values for Material Group that can (and are) used among their service master records.  Having a single default value for Material Group is resulting in incorrect reporting of spend per Material Group.
    I removed the default value in the config node stated above, but now the problem is that when creating a requisition line for services (item category D) in ME51N, no value for Material Group comes in at all, resulting in an error because Material Group is a mandatory field.  Making the field optional on the Field Selection Groups is not a valid solution, as they need Material Group for spend reporting.
    What we really need is for the Material Group to be automatically copied over from the service master data, in the same manner that this takes place for the material group contained in a material master.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jason

    Hi,
    Hi,
    1) If service master is used in the PO item, then the system will take the                    
    material group from the service master (AC01). 
    2) If no service master is maintained then the system will take the                 
    material group from the table T023. To be able to change this material group on services level - if you want a different material group on services level, you must set the field ESLL-MATKL for visible in the table control settings, and the change of the service group must be carried out manually.
    Please be advised that it is the standard behaviour that the material               
    group on service level is not updated automatically after you have                  
    changed the material group on purchasing level. The material group on               
    service level must be adjusted manually.                         
    3) By default for service lines the system will consider the material              
    group which is entered at the Item level.                                                                               
    Services can have different material groups, therefore you can change               
    the material group at service level. The material group in service line             
    can be different and always takes higher priority from the material                 
    group at the item level.

  • Goods-receipt-based invoice verification default for material group

    Hello experts,
    I put by default the option Goods-receipt-based invoice verification when creating a purchase order by tcode ME21N. Now, I would like if possible to only insert the option Goods-receipt-based invoice verification by default for some material group. Is this possible? This behaviour needs to be automatic.
    How can I achieve this behaviour?
    Thanks in advance,
    Best Regards,
    JP
    Edited by: Jeyakanthan A on Nov 20, 2011 11:11 PM

    Dear JP,
    In standard system this is not possible to default this indicator based on Material Group. This can be defaulted from Vendor Master record or Purchasing Info Record or Ticked Manually PO Item Details.
    If you look to enhance you system to do this, I would not advisable you to go with this default option because there can be situation that you order some material without Material Master Record (Like a frame work Order) in that case you will not be able to do GR and there can be conflict.
    You can create Material Group Info. record and default it from there, but again this for scenario where Material Master Record does not exists(Non Stock).
    Hope you find this useful.

  • PO release strategy based on Material Group (CEKKO - MAKTL)

    Hi Experts,
    I have configure the Rel strategy based CEKKO-MATKL (material group) for purchase order, but when i raise the PO Rel strategy is not affecting, Can any body tell me why.
    Regards,
    Kumar

    You can set Release strategy based on Material group & other Line item specific fields..
    You better follow a suitable and hinder less process..
    For PR use Material group & Account Assignment based Release process..
    then for PO use a Release Process based on Header level fields like Doc type, Amount, pur Group etc..
    So that the approved PR line can be converted into PR and then the PO also subjected to Release before sending it to External Vendor..
    Even if you want you can make that the PO can not be created without referencing PR for SOme users or All users..
    based on your business requirement..
