Default Pruchasing Group in PO from Material Master

Hello!
How can we default the Purchasing group in PO ( ME21N ) from the purchasing group in material master record??
Regards

Hi,
If a perticular buyer is responsible for a set of materials procurement activity ,Normally these materials will be provided with that purchase group. Hence is it possble for you to divide the materials accordingly and assign purchase group ?Then if a MRP run for this material, you can fetch the requisions created and covert them into POs on the Purcgase Group name.
Regards,

Purchase group in Purchase order from creator not from Material Master

Hi All,
Can you please help me with the next one?
Points rewarded.
In the materialmaster is purchase group 44B entered but
The default purchase group of the buyer is 55C. Is it possible
that the value 55C is automaticaly placed in the PO when
the buyer creates the Purchase order?
At this moment always the default value from Material
master is proposed.
Thank you in advance,
Eric.

Hi,
You have to look at the overall process.
The idea of the Purchasing Group is to indicate which buyer manages that material in that plant.
SO when the system (or a user) generates a requisition for that item at that plant, the system then knows who should convert it etc.
So my question to you would be, "why have you got a default P group in the material master record that is NOT the buyer who manages that item at that plant?"
If several buyers share a list of materials then just use one P group for the "group" of buyers, instead of separate P groups for each buyer.
The system doesn't have the option to automatically overwrite the P group on the requisition because this may be someone just "helping out" the buyer who is busy and so it does not mean that the requisition should be changed to be linked to this other P group.
You already have the field "created by" on the PO and so if you need to report on who created what, then simply use this field instead of P group.
But the P group on the material master (and therefore the requisition) shoudl ALWAYS be the P group that will convert reqs for this item plant combination.

Account assignment group is different in Intercompany Billing from Material Master

Hello,
Account assignment group is different in Intercompany Billing from Material Master.
Account assignment group in Billing and Intercompany Billing is feched from Material Master.
In Material Master, account assignment group is assigned as 12.
In Billing, account assignment group is 12 but in Intercompany Billing, account assignment group is 13.
Please help me to understand why in Intercompany Billing, account assignment group is 13.
Best Regards,
Debashri Dutta

Check the table MVKE for the values maintained for field KTGRM. You can see the sales org-DC combinations for which the AAG is maintained as 13 for this material. This may give you clues for investigation.

Storeage location from material master in PO

I have maintained a store location of each material in Material master in view of "General Plant Data / Storage 1". Now my requirement is that whenever I create a PR or PO without PR with material, system will not take by default my store location since I have already maintained in the material master. Even the requirement is same while creating a reservation.. Can any one ans to this please.. Since it is general issue.. It should come from material master as this SAP is such good ERP package why it is not coming by default. It is a really challenging question?

SAP designed its programs the way it is, they have a field storage location EP to default a storage location to a PO. it just does not make sense for SAP (for perfromance reasons in big companies) to check first if there is only a single storage location maintained together with the auto storage location disabled.
storage location EP field is just located in MRP views.
But with customizing you can move this field to any other view, e.g. purchasing view.
It is probably in the MRP views, as you usually have MRP views only for materials that are stock managed, and only for quantity managed materials you need a storage location, while purchasisg view need to be there even for materials that are not stock managed. So a proposal for storage location EP makes more sense in the MRP views, especailly while the planner defines where the materials are needed, rather the the buyer. And with distributed material master maintenance it makes then again more sense to have it in MRP views.
But if you company does it different, then customize your material master views to your need.

Inter company PO is not pulling the valuation price from Material Master

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario, Inter-company PO with pricing procedure which pulls Material Price from Material Master (Std Price), similar to intra company PO
Even after maintaining the std price in the supplying plant , system is not pulling the Valuation price from Material master only for a particular Material
I checked the Plant level attributes ( for ex: Plant Mat status, client level status and everything looks fine )
Could you guys please mention what would be the issue ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Profit Center is not taken from Material Master

Dear all,
When we post material-related items from SD or MM with link to material/plant (as additional account assginment) then Profit Center is taken from Material Master. But when I manually (FB01 or even FBR2) post similar item with link to material/plant (as additional account assginment) then Profit Center is not taken from Material Master.
Why this happen? How to fix it? We need to derive Profit Centers from Material Master for items that have links to material and posted via FI.

List of material number with PO text from material master

I want to get a list of materials number with PO text from material master. Can anybody help ?

The purchase order texts maintained in the material master are stored
as SAPScript text files in tables STXH (header) and STXL (lines). For
material master records:
Field TDOBJECT = 'MATERIAL'
Field TDNAME = material number (MARA-MATNR).
So you should be able to write a small report to extract the data.

Hello All,
Can you advice on how to Print the DMS Document as a smartforms from Material master ?

Hi Arvind,
You have mentioned two different terminologies here.
DMS
Material Master
From DMS, you need to download the attachment and the same attachment can be converted using the FM CONVERT_TO_OTF then try displaying the same into your smartform.
I'm not aware of Material Master Document attachment.
Will reply soon with that solution also.

Purchase Order from Material Master Price

Hi All,
Can I customise the system in such a way without any development in which I want that while creating PO the system should take the Price from Material Master if no Info record is maintained.
Thanks,
Lekhram

If you are using the requisition to create the PO then it is possible other wise not.
If you use PR
the do the follosing setting in OMET trasnction, select the adopt PO price
the go to SU3 and enter the parameter id = EFB and value = Function authorization code (e.g 01)
now when you create the PR
on valuation tab you can see the field PO price
select the price as gross or net price
this will copy the Mateiral price (PR price) to the PO

Subcontracting PR picking value from material master.

Hi!
We require that the subcontracting pr should pick the value from info record not from material master ,how can we do this ?
thanks and regards,
Suranjana

Hi ,
as per std SAP
price in Pr will always be picked from material master
for materials without material master - it has to be entered manually
It cannot be picked from info records
the valuation price in PR is used only to effect a release, if any
