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.

Mass Delete Purchasing Info Records

Is there a way to flag a standard info record EINA-LOEKZ in mass maintenance MEMASSIN
for several materials across several different vendors?
I can select EINA-LOEKZ in MEMASSIN then choose selection fields and pull down the material and vendor. But I dont see an option for purchasing org., or plant?

Hi,
Use this transaction to delete a Purchasing Information Record. An information record contains information tying a specific vendor to a material or material group.
Menu Path
From the SAP R/3 Screen, select the path:
Logistics >> Materials management >> Purchasing >>
(new menu) Master data >> Info record >> Flag for deletion
Or use the transaction code --> ME15

Purchasing Info Record last document references deleted PO

We created a PO line with a material which updated the purchasing info record. Subsequently we marked the PO line for deletion. However when I use ME12 to look at the PIR, under the Environment/Last document menu option the deleted PO line is still referenced. How can I reset the last document for a PO line once the PO line has been deleted?

the field just says last PO, it does not say last undeleted PO.
The next PO will update this field.

Purchasing info record 5300000013 flagged for deletion

Hi,
While changing the Purchasing info record , we get the following message:
Purchasing info record 5300000013 flagged for deletion as a warning
We want to convert this message as error. For that we changed the System message category, purchasing as "E" in Materials Management-> Purchasing-> Environment Data-> Define Attributes of System Messages, but after that also the System gives a warning message in T Code ME12.
Where do I need to change to get the error message? As per understanding, the system should always warning message so that we can change the deletion flag, if required in future.
Please guide.
Regards,
PK

hi,
Try to understand the importance of the message. PIR document is not must to make or create any PO...
but in case if req. or for copying few parameters from old/latest PIR, we use it...
Its always better to have the PIR for the PO, which may be made before or after the generation PO...as it stores the PO price history, conditions etc...which may get updated and pulled whenever required...
So, due to such reasons system has made this message as warning message...because you can use it just for record maintainance, but it will be of no use if thinking practically...
Normally we make these settings at SPRO >> IMG>>MM Purchasing>>Environment data>> Define attributes of system messages...

Purchasing Info Record marked for deletion

Hi experts,
I need some explanation on Purchasing Info Records and more precisely on the deleted ones.
Could you tell me why a Purch. Info Record that is marked for deletion is still set when a PO is created?
In ME13 I have the following warning message : 06-718 (Purchasing info record & & & & flagged for deletion).
In ME21N the same message is displayed as warning and users are able to save the PO with the deleted Info Record.
I don't understand why SAP still retrieves Info Records that are marked for deletion...
Is there a way to prevent SAP from using deleted info records?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Philippe

Hi Philippe,
The message 06718 can be set as an error or warning in customising.
If message 06718 is set as error then system will not allow to save
the document with that info record.
The deletion indicator is the reservation to delete this record. But
this is not comparable with the deletion of the record from the database
This has to be done within the archiving run for the object MM_EINA.
Untill this inforecord is not archived the data is taken as usual."
Online documentation provides the following information
"You cannot delete obsolete info records immediately. You can
only flag them for subsequent deletion. Info records earmarked for
deletion in this way are not actually deleted until the archiving
program is run. This is done at regular intervals by your system
administrator. You can flag an individual info record for deletion,
or create a list of deletion proposals and choose the relevant records
that are to be deleted from this list."
Kind regards,
Lorraine

Error in CIF for Purchase Info Records

Hi,
I am trying to CIF Purchase Info record from R/3 to APO but its getting stuck during activation "generating delta Model".
Can anyone please help in this regards, I have already read the link related to BD22 but which message type do we need to delete. Also what can be the other reason.
I have CIFed Plant, material, vendor in the same sequence also I have extended material to vendor manually in APO.
I have one more issue the vendor code 1000000 in R/3 is getting create as 0001000000 in APO can this cause a problem
Thanks,
sanjog

Hi Sanjog ,
Iam not sure why you are looking at tcode BD22. It is not relevant to PIR transfer .
Also to CIF the PIR for a material from R/3 to APO, it is not necessary that the material should exist in the vendor location in APO. (You need to create the material at vendor location only if it is required specifically for your business scenario).
Now , to identify what is causing the problem , you have to check the inbound queue in APO and outbound queue in R/3. The tcodes are SMQ2 and SMQ1. You can also use the queue manager /n/sapapo/cq in APO . Check what the error message is and correct the master data in R/3 accordingly. Then delete all blocked queue entries (/sapapo/cq can be used ) and then run the PIR CIF activation again.
Thanks

Purchase Info record error

hi SAP,
In purchase info record in deletion flag i tick the check delete info record. if i do this values from info record will not come when i create purchase order.
What are the other ways the values are coming to my purchase order if the info record for that particular material is deleted .

karan

Hello,
Check On the analysis button on the condition tab of the purchase order line item.
here you will find the pricing procedure system is picking up. Also you will get all the condition type there.
Check the first condition type PB00.
Click on the arrow mark before PB00 and drop down you will see all the acess sequence for that condition type new see agaist which acess sequence you can find arrow mark. From there you can analyze and will come to know system is picking up price from which aces sequence.
Outline agreement
Contract or Inforecord.
IIf you give deletion flag to Inforecord then also system will picking up price from info record. But if you keep the condtion record validity period as yesterdays date in ME12 or MEk2 transaction then system will not pickup from inforecord but it will pick up last PO price.
So if you dont want Info record price to pick up then change the condtion type validity perid as past dates.

Shailesh

Purchase Info record

In purchase info record in deletion flag i tick the check delete info record. if i do this values from info record will not come when i create purchase order.
What are the other ways values are coming to my purchase order if the info record for that particular material is deleted ??????

Hi Venky,
Whenever you create a PO, System source the purchasing relevent information from all the possible Master Records on priority basis like..
1. Purchasing info records -
> !st Priority
2. Vendor master Records -
> 2nd priority
3. Material master records- -
> priority
Here if you delete info records, then
1. Vendor related information system will pick up from vendor master Records.
2. Material related information system will pick up from Material master records.
I hope this piece of information will solve your problem..
Cheers

Archiving Purchase Info Records

Hi,
Can you please let me know what are the prerequsites that need to be completed before archiving a Purchase Info Record?
do we need to check for any other dependency/flag other than the Mark for deletion (table field LOEKZ 'X')
Please any one of you sugest me the solution for the above questions;
Thanks,
Jeevan.

Hi Jeevan,
In order to be able to delete an info record, you have to mark the Info Records for deletion.
To do so, use transaction ME15 and flag record for deletion. After you have deleted all info records, use archiving program RM06IW30 or follow the menu path Logistics - Materials Management u2013Purchasing - Master Data - Info Record - Follow on Functions - Archive.
Make sure that you only archive Records Marked for deletion as all records may be deleted!
Create Archive File: Info Record:
a) Select Action: Archive and enter a new Variant, for example: Z_EINA_ARCH_ 01, press 'Maintain'
b) On selection screen enter the data range (Vendor, Material, etc.) you want to archive.
c) Deselect the 'Test' flag if you don't want to test first.
d) Press green back-arrow and enter the description of this new variantt on the screen which follows.
e) Save the variantt which brings you again to the selection screen. Press green back arrow again.
f) To start archiving process (batch-job), press the 'Start Date' button and select the time when you want to start this process. Select 'Immediate' for instant processing and press the 'Save' button on the bottom of the Start Time' window.
g) Select the 'Spool Parameter' button and save entries. Eventually enter a valid printer to have the result outputted.
h) You are ready now to start the process. Press the 'Start' button and monitor the success with the 'Job Overview' button You can also go the 'fast path' by using transaction SE38, program RM06IW30 to archive info records. For large data archiving, use the background jobs and run those during off-peak times. If you run the program online, you will see a confirmation on the status bar telling 'New Archive file created:.... ' Delete Archived Records: Info Record
a) Follow the menu path: Tools - Administration - Administration - Archiving
b) Select the Object Name MM_EINA for info records
c) Select the menu button 'Delete'
d) Select the menu button: 'Archive Selection'
e) Click the archive created in previous step

Archive Purchase Info Record MM_EINA : problem with CDHDR

Hello,
I have notice that when i archive an Info Record, Only CDPOS is deleted and not CDHDR.
In the customizing, Object Class CHANGEDOCU is set.
Can someone explain why datas in CDHDR are not deleted ?
Thank you,
Cipriano

Yes, I agree with Jurgen. You should open a message with SAP. As, the CDHDR records should be archived along with the CDPOS records. That is how it works when I archive purchase info records with MM_EINA.

Purchase info record(PIR).

Hi Folks,
I have some questions regarding the archiving of purchase info records.
1. what are the functional dependencies that we need to check for before Archiving a PIR.
2.bold I was unable to Archive some Purchase info records even after it is marked as complete (LOEKZ = 'X') is there any other things that need to be cheked for deletion or there is any other dependencies??
Please let me know the possibilities to resolve the issue..

Hi
Purchase info record is a condition record which facilitates in defualting the Conditions & some Vendor & Plant Specific Data.
If you have already marked them from deletion, that means they are not in use.
That means you can archive them.
Inforecords with category Consignment, pipeline need to be checked , as from these inforecords only the prices are picked.
If these donot exits then you will not be able to create the PO's,Please ensure that.
apart from that you can archive the PIR's flagged for deletion
Thanks & Regards
Kishore

Purchase info record does not exists in purchase organization 1000

Hi experts,
          I have created a new enterprise structure in SAP. when i am creating a PO its picking the correct info record, but when i am doing GR, its giving the error as 'purchase info record does not exists in purchase organization 1000". I have maintained everything perfect. the only thing i have changed is I have moved the open and close period from 11-2002 to 12-2008 in MMPV.
         Please give me some suggestions, where it can go wrong.
Thanks & Regards,
Poorna.

Hi Guys,
          Thanks for all yours responses, Actually what deepak said was right, but in my IDES system i am not able to create new entries in assign plant to std purchase org. I found the database view for that, V_001W_E its for table T001W. So i looked into that table i found that std purchase org was given as 1000. i made direct entries in that table, i thought the reason for this may be due to , that i copied plant from 1000. After making entries , i did not got the error message that was i am previously getting.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi.

Report for Materials expired with price on Purchase Info Record

Hi Experts,
Can anyone of you advice a report in SAP that can identify the materials where the price has expired on Purchase Info Record.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nagarjun

HI,
ME1P will be used to monitor the changes in terms of pricing conditions you made to your info record via Transaction MEKP.
In case of SA, you will have to build up your simple query by joining two tables A016 and KONP.
