Default Text in Purchase Info Record

Hi All,
I am facing one problem during the PIR maintainance.
While creating PIR for some plants in the Purchase Order Text some default value is coming.
Is there any way to check where we are maintaining the default value for plant specific.
Regards
Sangram

Please check the copy rule of text in customization setting.
txn OLME >Purchasing Info Record >Texts for Purchasing Info Records >Define Copying Rules
and check the sources from which text is coming.
If text is not in maintained in any of the source of object, then this can be due to inconsistent text in EINA table. See note 496577 .

How to retrieve the long texts from purchase Info record (ME13)

Hi,
How do I retrieve the long texts data from the tab, Texts of the Purchase Info record(ME13). I want to retrieve the current long texts data(long text1, long text2 long text3, long text4) for a given purchase info record. These long texts points to the structure BRM06I.
So, now how do I fetch the data from the structure BRM06I. Is there any function module for the same..
Thanks.

Hello,
Texts are stored in tables STXH & STXL (header and item). You can search these tables by selecting Text object = EINA and Text name = Info Rec #. The text ID's you will see are the ID for various texts maintained.
Cheers !

Condition text in purchase info record

Hi,
How to maintain text for condition in purchase info record.
Business users would like to maintain the reason/details for price change of condition record in info record.
I am refering to the in the PIR condition screen, there is a Text check box besides scales check box.
Please let me know the steps to maintain condition text in PIR.
Thanks in advance
Raj.

Hello Raj,
I may have faced the same problem.
-Go to VOTXN.
-Select Radio B : pricing cond --> condition / change
Choose application M
-Design a text procedure: in standard you may have some
Go to Text procedure assignement
You need to affect the:
Text determination procedure (standard example 01) T685A-TXTGR and
Text ID for text edit control (standard example 0001) T685A-TDID_TEC
to the Basic price off you info record (standard PB00)
If your basic price is no longer PB00 you may identify with this:
T685A-KNTYP = H and T685A-KALSM = pricing procedure for additionnal condition type present in you FIR.
If you affect the text procedure to a additionnal condition instead off the Basic price, this will not work.

Mass change of text in purchase info record.

Hi All,
For purchasing info record, we have maintained copying rules to adopt text from material master. In copying rule for info record, we have maintained Fixed indicator for material master text "Purchase Order Text." The texts copied to info records from material master is having status fixed.
The problem is, since text is having fixed indicator it is not copying to PO unless we make change or adopt it. Now we do not know how many info record is having the text as fixed since in most PO's text is not getting copied.
Is there any way where we can make a mass change so that fixed indicator is removed. If LSMW, how can we know how many info records are having text as fixed indicator "*". Or is there is some other way.
Thanks

Hi Alex
You can change/ remove the "No material text' check box either by using a
mass maintenance - transaction MASS,
object type: BUS3003
table: EINE
give the Info record number/Pur org/info-category/ plant
or using the batch input recording using LSMW.
You can find the number entries of info-records having 'No Material text' using transaction SE16/SE16N with table EINE
and select the 'NO Material text' with 'X: and hit number of entries..you will find it
Thanks

Table for the Purchase Info Record:Text

Dear All
As the Purchase Info Record data is saved in the tables like EINA/EINE/EIPA
In which table can i find the "Info Record:Text"
Please help me guys

Hi,
It is important to realize that all Text records are not stored transparently in tables like other data. Text records are stored within clusters in SAP.
You can access these texts in SAP when you create a include text node in your SmartForm. Once created you begin by selecting the Text Type: Include Text.
The Text Key for an include text is made up of the following parts.
You can use the ABAP function module u201CREAD_TEXTu201D to access Text records by passing the correct header information. You can see the text in the TDLINE.
If you go to SE37 u2013 ABAP Function Modules and enter READ_TEXT you can press the Test/Execute button and enter real data into the import parameters and validate that your text can be accessed using this function module. You can then incorporate it into your ABAP program to access any SAP text that you need.
This is essentially what is done automatically for you in SmartForms when using the Text Type: Include Text.
Finding Header Information for Info Record Texts
You can find the header information for text records using the following steps.
1.Click on the Text tab for either header or item texts
2.Double-click on any header or item text in the Purchase Order
3.Go to any existing text
4.Use menu path Edit u2013> Text u2013> Long Text
5.Select menu option Goto u2013> Header
The header information will be displayed and will contain the following field values
Text Name: Info Record Number 53000128641 090
Language: EN
Text ID: BT (Purchase order text)
Text Object: EINE (Texts, pur. info. pur.org.data).
For more clarity please check the below link.

I hope this will clear your issue. Thanking you.

Purchase Info Record Texts Upload

Hello all,
I am using the standard upload program RM06IBI0 for data migration of PIRs. I have a seperate file that has PO texts.
When I upload the texts I use the structure BRM06I --> BLINES to transport the text.
However, there seems to be no way of forcing the text to go into the right PIR text. I only have PO texts to upload but no matter what data I place in the BRM06I structure the LSMW always places the text into the Info Record Note text.
Can anyone help?

Hi
I have encountered the same problem with material BOM creation.
The reason you get this message is probably because you didn't define correctly the identification field in the source structures.
In step 'Maintain source fields' you should define the first field of every structure as identification field by creating char field of length 1. Then from the tree view of source fields, double click this field (in change mode) and give appropriate value in field 'Identifying Field Content', meaning 1 for header structure, 2 for items structure etc.
This should fix the problem.
Best regards

SAP MM:Purchase info record

Hi experts,
Can anyone tell me the complete process of purchase info record (ME11).Complete screen steps what are the tabs are there in ME11.I want screenshots of ME11
Hope for good answer from experts
Regards
sandhya

Hi Sandya,
If you want to create it manually you can do so by using the SAP transaction code ME11. At the initials screen the following are the input values:
Vendor Number
Material Number
Purchasing Organization
Plant
Info Category
After key in these values at the initial screen you can maintain rest of the information related to material and vendor in the subsequent screen. These information can be group as follows:
Purchasing Organization Data
Conditions
Texts
As per the business requirement you can make some of the fields (information) as mandatory by customizing. You can also restrict the end user from modifying these information once saved in the system.
In the standard SAP purchasing info record is maintained as a source of information for Purchasing.
It contains some of the information from material master and some of the information related to its supplier/vendor.
Hence Material and Vendor Master is pre-requisite for a purchasing info record. You can also maintain the
purchasing information record without material master record if your material is for direct consumption.
Here you can use material group instead of material master. You can have more than one purchasing information
record for a single material if it is being supplied by more suppliers, one for each supplier. Information maintained
in purchasing information records is used as default data in documents such as purchase orders.
In standard SAP Info record stands for information record which contains concise information about a vendor and a material that Purchasing already procures from that vendor. An info record thus represents a material-vendor relationship. Following are some of the information maintained in Info record:
Units of measure in which materials are ordered from the vendor
The applicable reminder levels
Prices and Conditions with validity period (Present and Future)
Applicable Tax Code
Planned Delivery Time
Standard & Maximum Quantity
Tolerance limits for over-deliveries and under-deliveries
Number of Last Purchase Order or Quotation
Text
Vendor evaluation data
An indicator for showing vendor as regular vendor for the material
The vendor sub-range to which the material belongs
The availability period during which the vendor can supply the material

Mass Creation of Material Group Purchase info record

Dear All
Currently we are developing a custom transaction in SAP to mass upload Purchase Info records from a flat file (excel)
We are using the standard Function Module ME_POST_INFORECORD to create the PIR s
We use two different number ranges for Material and Material Group PIR s. This is set up already in SPRO>MM>PIR>Define Number Ranges
Purchasing info record for stock material (Group - IL ) have a number range X
Purchasing info record for material group (non-stock mat.)(Grpup -IN) have number range Y
So when we create a Material PIR manually in SAP it picks X number range and Y number range for Material Group PIR
But when we create Material Groups PIR via the new custom transaction it creates PIR s with Number range X.
Upon checking understood that the standard FM ME_POST_INFORECORD is always defaulting the Number Range Group as IL internally . Seems like a harcoding done by SAP
Wanted to know
- Is there any another FM we should consider while creating Material Group PIR s. Any other Function module provided by SAP for that ?
- Or what can be other way to resolve this ?
Please let me know your views on this.
Regards
Shyam

Hi,
For mass upload from flat files you can consider LSMW with different options e.g. IDoc:
Message Type INFREC
Basic Type INFRECMASS01
or simply via recording of transaction (this should be using exactly the same NR as you have when doing this manually).

Payment terms in Vendor Master data and purchasing info record

Hi, all, I met one trouble. While I create Purchase Order. In the header item, payment terms is automatically pop up from the data maintaining the vendor master data or purchasing info record if there is difference payment terms between in vendor master data and in purchasing info record. What happend?
Sometimes, When you create purchase order, payment terms is not automatically pop up even you maintained in the vendor master data or purchasing info record. Why? Is it meaning that I can manually to input payment terms while create each purchase order which can be difference data with vendor master data or purchase info record?
Thank you very much in advance,

Hi,
The payment terms is usually defaulted from either vendor master or purchasing master data record such as contract/outline agreement. Unless it is set through configuration that the payment terms be set as mandatory, any failure to maintain payment terms won't stop you from posting your PO as this information will only be useful during invoice receipt maintenance. Having said that if you are setting up your system with discount condition type as part of your PO pricing schema then it is necessary that the payment terms shall be maintained during PO creation.
Cheers,

Purchase info record numbering

Hi,
I need to create purchase info record for a meterial. for that i have done the following.
1. Created purchase infor record numbering range and group.
2. But at the time of creating the purchase info record the number which displaying is not related to
number i have created.
Please let me know where purchase info record group is assigned for numbering.
regards
Suresh S

Hi Suresh,
I undersatand your requirement.
SAP has provided only Two standard document Types for Pur. Info Records.
IL for Stock Material ( with matl No.)
IN For material Group (w/o MMR).
By default, if you enter Matl No. in the initial screen, system automatically picks the doc. type IL and the no. range assigned to it.
If you're not entered matl. no. in the initial screen, and proceed the Transaction further, system picks the doc. type IN and prompts you to enter Matl Group.
In the second case, the system picks up the no. range as per assignment.
Here in your case, you want create a new no. range and assign to your IL/ IN.
For this, you go to the transaction Define No. Ranges in Inforecord, from menu bar, choose Group-> maintain. Here you maintain your new no. range with a name. Now your new group is created with your required no. range.
Then select your new group ( Check box), select, IL, and click assign button and save.. Your IL is assigned to your new group and system picks the new No. Range when you are creating a Inforecord with Mat No. Similarly, you can change No. range for IN also.
or one more option you have.
In the first screen of No. Ranges Transaction, select change intervals tab button, you'll be goto intervals screen. There, from Menu bar, choose Interval-> change current No. Then you reset your current no. to Zero, save it. The again choose Change Interval, then in that screen, change the Interval with your new no. range.
Here in the second case, u need not maintain new groups. Just changing the Interval for the existing group.
You can adopt any one of these options.

Delete Purchase Info Records

Hi,
I have done some modification in the Pricing condition type.
When I create PO the condition type is appearing correctly
But, if there is info records existing for this Vendor Material combination, then the condition types from Last PO are fetched.
This should not happen.
It is difficult to explain to large number of usre to delete the PIR while cretion of Purchase Order OR to carry out new pricing.
I am thinking of deleting all the Purchase Info records to resolve this issue.
Is it the only solution..?what will be the Implications of deleting PIRs.
Rajesh

Hi,
If the requirement is to prevent the picking of the condition from the last PO for the info record maintained for vendor-material combination, you can as well go to SPRO --> MM --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Environment Data --> Define Default Value for Buyers --> Settings for Default Value
Proce Adoption tab --> Select Do not copy conditions from last PO.
assign the default value to the paramter tab for the user in the SU02 transaction.

Pricing schema for purchase info records

hi guys!
does anyone knows either SAP standard got function to define pricing schema for PIR? if yes, can you please tell me how to set it up step by step?
Thanks a lot,
crystal.

Hi,
there is no separate pricing schema for reading info records.
When creating PO, the system first searches for a purchasing
info record with the combination of vendor/material at purchasing
organization/plant level. If there is no such info record, the system
then search at purchasing organization level. If there is no such
info record here either, you must enter it manually.
If the purchasing info record exist, then valid conditions have
priority during price determination. If an info record does not
contain any conditions or invalid conditions, the system read from
last purchasing document in the info record and then suggest the price
from here. The price determined in this way are default values that
can be changed by the buyer if necessary.
You can save useful quotation data for a material in purchasing
info record. The info record can be created automatically by
setting the info update indicator during quotation maintenance
in the item detail.
Please first check is there any valid info record exist for this
material/vendor. You can always create/change/view it manually
via Ta ME11/ME12/Me13.
Please read also the notes 392988, 456691.

Error occured while creating purchase info record in mm

sir,
while creating purchase info record an error occured while inserting net price. it said
NOT POSSIBLE TO DETERMINE A CONDITION TYPE FOR A PRICE
when it attempted to generate the time dependent condition for the price you entered the systeem was unable to determine a condition type, price determination is therefore not possible.
please inform me how to solve this problem.
thankyou

I think you are not using the stdard pricing becuse of that it is thrwing error
Ok First check your pricing procedure which your using for PO
than in that pricing procedure if you are using PB00 fro Gross price than you will have antoher pricing procedure attached to this condition.
check in M/06 for your gross price conditon
now did you assign the pricing procedure to vendor?
bottom line is somthing missing in your config.
Check all the config as below
Pricing Procedure:
In MM module, pricing procedure is used during RFQ and PO creation. Total value of material based on all addition and subtraction like discount, surcharge, tax, freight, etc. In this we are defining pricing procedure and linking to vendor and purchase department through the virtual schemas.
Following steps for pricing procedure as,
1. Define conditions.
2. Define pricing procedure.
3. Define virtual purchase organization and vendor.
4. Info Record.
Customization for Pricing Procedure :
1. Definition of Conditions :
/NMEK0-condition typeu2026condition types- definition (define for basic price, net price, discount, surcharge, tax etc.)
2. Defining pricing procedure :
/NMEK0- calculation schema-calculation schemasu2014New entries (Define procedure and put the conditions like formula so that final price will be net price / total value as per company requirement)
3. Linking pricing procedure to independent condition types.
/NMEK0-condition typeu2026condition types- definition for position for defined conditions (Enter the defined pricing procedure in the each independent conditions u201CPricing Procedureu201D box)
4. Defining Schema group for Vendor :
/NMEK0- calculation schema-schema groupsu2014vendoru2014New Entries.
5. Defining Schema group for Purchase Organization--- New entries.
/NMEK0- calculation schema- schema groups---- purchasing organization--- new entries.
6. Linking Virtual Purchase Organization to actual Purchase Organization.
/NMEK0- calculation schema- schema groups----- Assign P.Org. (in actual P.Org, enter virtual P.Org)
7. Linking Pricing procedure to virtual P.Org and virtual vendor :
/NMEK0- calculation schema- Determine Schema--- -Standard --- New entries (Enter virtual schema and P.Org. along with pricing procedure)
8. Linking virtual vendor to actual vendor-- /NXK02 then enter schema group vendor in Purchasing Data )
9. Info Records (/NME11)---- click on u201CPurch. Org. data1u201D and enter condition types and pricing procedure
What are the steps in pricing determination in MM? Condition, Access sequence and schema.
In the SAP MM Pricing is more important. Just yesterday I have completed the Pricing as I am doing the SAPMM now. I can give some light on this Topic, not 100%. After 2 days definitely some more I can share.
The Basic thing is Condition Technique. In which there are
1. Access Sequence 2. Condition Record 3. Condition Type 4. Condition Table.
A Access Sequence access a Condition Record of a Condition Type in a Condition Table is a Condition Technique.This is a simple logic
Here the Condition Type is very important like PB00, PBXX,RA01 etc.
In the background every Condition Type has its own defition means the purpose of the Condition Type like, is it for Pricing or Percentage, Quntity base, Accrual Feilds etc is to be defined to work this functions.
Normally we use the existing ones without any risk. But some cases, we have to Create a New Condition Types as per the organisation requirement.
The Pricing Schema is useful to minimise condition types while mention prices for Vendor on the basis of Pricing Schema which we defined according to organisation requirement.
The Pricing Schema means the calculations procedure of Condition Type.
Ex. RA01 - Discoount % is caclulated on PB00 - Gross Price means
RA01 is based on PB00 like that we have to define in the Pricing Schema
which makes easy to use in realtime.
Here PB00 has the Access Sequence - 0002.
But RA01 does not have the Access Sequence.Why because it is a dependent on PB00. But both are Condition Types.
In the system, by default some standard Scheme will be there at Vendor Schema Group in the Vendor Master Screen means the standard one is assigned which is very lengthy which may fullfil our requirement. But some cases which may not fullfil our requirement, in such we have to define.
For the configuration, I may not able to explain properly through here but will give some Idea.
Configuration: SPRO-IMG-Material Management- Purchasing- Conditions-Define Price Deternmination Process
1. Define Access Sequence
2. Define Condition Type
3. Defince Calculation Schema:- Here you have to define the Schema
Define Schema group
1. Define Schema Group vendor
2. Define Pricing Schema group
3. Schema group for Purchase Organisation
4. Assign Schema group to Purchase Organisation
Define Schema determination
1.define calculation schema for Standard purchase organisation
After completion of the Schema Group, we have to assign it to Vendors.
Then whenever we use any transaction with this Vendor, the concerned Schema will work as configured by us.
I think this will help you. Actually the Pricing is a vast. Becuase each Condition have its own importance and each Access Sequence have its own importance. So you need not bother about this. First you learn how to define the Calculation Schema through the above.
Here we can create many Calculation Schemas which can assign one schema to Local vendors
another schema to out side vendor one more schema to foreign vendors like that we can classify.
