Desired vendor modified in po

Hello All,
i am facing a issue.
if you set a "Desired Vendor" in the PR, this can be copied as default value in the PO Vendor field when dragging & dropping the PR item in the Shopping Cart icon of transasction ME21N.
Such default value can be modified, provided that you leave the Purchase organization field empty in the Purchase requisition (see below)
Otherwise, if purchase org is filled in, you cannot edit the Vendor in the PO anymore.
But i am facing Vendor in the PO could be modified regardless the content of field Purchase organizaiton.
Now my question to all u would be the following: is the copy function configurable somehow or is this a standard SAP behaviour ?
please explain in details with an example
Thanks and regards,
Sathiya

thanks for your reply, you mean to say standard functionality even though u filled the purchased organization in PR with desired vendor. standard system we can modify the vendor in po? is it allowed in sap
Please clarify .

sathiya

Hi
vedor must assigned to P.Org...
Check once that You are copying existing PR to a PO (having fixed vendor in PR)?
And also check PO doc type settings whether vendor field is mentioned as optional/required.

Copying of the desired vendor from PR to Partners Tab in PO

I need to know how we can get the desired vendor from PR copied to the PARTNERS tab in PO while auto creation of PO from PR (ME59N).
The Odering adress comes from the Vendor master partner functions which is marked as default in PO, i want that Odering adress always = Desired Vendor and this is during the auto PO generation in ME59N.
How can I get this done.
Thanks,
RAshmi.

hi,
please check for the following points:
1. check in ME21N, are referncing properly or not...
You have to reference it via using the document overview ON or directly entering the PR as source document for the PO...
2. check whether is getting properly saved in the table EBAN/EBKN...check it in SE16...you can check as per the document number...
3. If nothing is helping you from the above two points check with the ABAP and BASIS consultant...

Updating desired vendor field in EBAN

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement like i have to change the Desired vendor field in EBAN while creating a sales order in VA01.
In VA01 while creating an order i will give the vendor number. and this vendor number have to store in EBAN-LIFNR.
Can any one suggest how to do this. Is any BAPI available.
Thanks and Regards,
Anil.

Hi,
While creating sales order the PR will be created automatically. and if we see that particular PR using ME53N its not displaying the vendor which i have given while creating sales order using VA01. Now my requirement is to update that EBAN-LIFNR field with the contents of vendor at the time of creating the sales order.
Thanks and Regards,

Desirable Vendor not populating in backend (R/3)

Key Words: Desirable Vendor, Vendor Replication
System: SRM 5.0, SAP R/3 4.6
Scenario: Classic
We replicate vendors for the backend R/3 via BBPGETVD. However, when ran BBPGETVD we had some errors so we had to select <i>If R/3 Number Assignment is not Possible. Internal Number Assignment</i>.
We have set-up EBP and are able to create requisitions (PR) in the backend from the SCs. However, the PR that is created in the backend (R/3) the Preferred Vendor is not being populated even if we select a vendor in the Source of Supply section of the SC. The vendor number of the Vendor that is selected is not the vendor number is in the backend.
Could my problem of the Preferred Vendor not being populated because the vendor number does not match? i.e. the vendor number in EBP does not exist in R/3
If this is the case, what do I need to do to the vendor number in EBP so they match the vendors number in the backend.
I know that view BBPV_BUPA_VENMAP shows the mapping of the replicated vendor s in EBP to the vendors in R/3.
Any help, suggestions, etc. will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Derek,
I ran BBPMAININT and made the changes.
You have to run the transaction in a new session
1) frist do /n in the Command field
2) then enter TCODE: BBPMAININT
3) then Manage Busines Partners will show
4) enter the serach for the BP and edit
5) screen to edid/amin the BP will appear
6) change to edite mode and make your changes and fill in all the required information. You will ahve to scroll down to find all the fields
7) scroll to the bottom and click on 'Vendor Data'. A new screen will appear....SCROLL to the bottom
8) near the bottom there is a tabel where you enter the Logical System, Vendor number (the R/3 vendor #)
hope that helps.

Hi,
Vendor gets picked based on Source List, Purchase info Records is miantained. So in that case the Vendor maintained in these records will have a priority.
Also The 'desired vendor' field is where the end user maintains their preferable vendor which should be taken into consideration by the purchaser once he/she converts this PR into PO. However, this field will not be regarded by SAP in case of automatic creation of PO via Transaction ME59.
The 'fixed vendor' field, on the other hand, is the field which SAP will automatically assign the possible source of supply in case the 'source determination' checkbox is flagged. In this case, if you have set the fixed vendor in the source list, then this vendor will be automatically defaulted in this field. Otheriwse, the system will pop up the list of possible vendors for your selection. Again in case this fixed vendor field is entered, this vendor will be automatically defaulted in the PO during automatic conversion of PR into PO via ME59 transaction.
Hope this Clarifies!
thanks,
Prashant Rathore.

PR-vendor error

please let me any configrtion needs to be done,

Ravi

what is special with your PR
What item category do you use, what account assignement category?
I am asking because I just tested it in my system with account assignment K and I did not get any error.
Maybe this message is called from a user exit, because 00 398 is a generic message without own content, it just has 4 vaiables whose content is filled from the program that issues the message.

PO created instead posting block set & vendor not extended to company code!

Dear friends,
I have a vendor created for a purchasing organisation in a company code. there are two problems that i am facing.
1) I have blocked a particular vendor completely. Even then system is allowing to create the PO using this vendor.
2) This vendor has been created for a particular company code & has not been extended to another company code. Even then it is allowing to create the PO using the vendor centrally blocked for creating purchase order in another company code.
There is a service PR specifying this vendor as desired vendor & the vendor is ticked for auto PO. Could this be a problem? but i think even then it should not allow to create PO that too for a different company code.
Thanks & Regards
Tasleem Arif

1) I have blocked a particular vendor completely. Even then system is allowing to create the PO using this vendor.
Answer: While creation Purchase order, purchase orgnization mandatory for vendor, if vendor blocked at company code level means system will not check Company code at the time of PO creation. here in PO creation use of company code is to recognise Currency of the company code.
2) This vendor has been created for a particular company code & has not been extended to another company code. Even then it is allowing to create the PO using the vendor centrally blocked for creating purchase order in another company code.
Answer: While creation of Purchase order, Comapny code is used for only currency recognisation , system will not check vendor is created for comapny code or not? but vendor should at Purchase org level.
If vendor is not defined at company code , then it will give an error at the time of invoice only. not at PO level.
At PO level Purchase orgnisation is very important

How to select the vendor from the source list in the PO(me21n) screen ??

Hi
How to select the vendor from the source list in the PO(me21n) screen.
Is there any Sources of Supply tab in the PO just like we have in the PR.
I don't want a PO raised from a PR which has got the Vendor assigned to it already.
Or the SAP doesnot provide the option of Source list/Assign source/Sources of Supply .....in the PO.
Kindly reply

There is not any facility available for Source Determination in PO. Only you can select the line item and click Menu Environment > Source List and view the list of sources available for the material but you can not chooss and assign. If you wan to assign the vendor then change the vendor already entered in PO and put the desired vendor.

'Preferred Vendor' and 'Vendor' in Purchase Order Partner Overview screen

Hello All,
Please can you provide me with some assistance to the following issue we have on our SRM 5.0 system......here goes.....
In 'Define Sourcing for Product Categories config' , we have set the value to 'Sourcing is never carried out'. Now, when we manually assign a Supplier to the Cart and have it automatically converted to a Purchase Order, the Purchase Order is created but only in Held Status as only the 'Preferred Vendor' in the PO Partner Overview screen is populated with the other 'Vendor' field remaining blank and requiring manual intervention by our users
Please can someone explain how we are able make the system to always have the 'Vendor' field populated, therefore not needing any manual intervention.
Your help would be appreciated,
Thanks

Hi
Implement the following method , in which you will force prefer vendor
to fixed vendor for all applicable sc.
IF_EX_BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI~BBP_SC_change.
You will have to work with partner function 00000039 which is the
prefered vendor to move into the partner function 00000019.
In the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI we provide the business partner data
through the IT_PARTNER interface table. the prefered vendor or desired
vendor has partner type 39, the regular supplier will have partner
type 19. a switch from 39 to 19 should create a po instead of
incomplete po.

F110 - clear debits in one vendor with credits in another vendor

Hi Experts
We have a scenario where there are two vendor accounts created in SAP for two different business processes done with same vendor.
For example -
Vendor A created in SAP for all finished goods purchases from XYZ ltd
Vendor B created in SAP for all raw materials purchased from XYZ ltd
Both Vendor A & Vendor B have same payment details using the concept of alternate payee.
So it is possible some times that Vendor A has debit balance and Vendor B has credit balance.
In such circumstances, we want to net off Vendor A balance with Vendor B and make only the net payment to XYZ limited.
We want to achieve these through F110 as we need to reflect these details on payment remittance sent to vendor.
We do not want to use F.13 functionality by setting up OB74 configuration.
Please let me know if it is possible. Any inputs on this will be helpful.
Regards,
Santosh

Hi
Thanks for your reply. Alternate payee will work only to ensure that payments are made to the desired vendor. However it does not help clearing in credit and debits in different vendor accounts though they have same alternate payee. It consider each vendor as different and makes payment individual even though they have same alternate payee. Could you please suggest if there are any other work around.
Regards,
Santosh

Vendor and material assignment

Hi all,
Is there any possibility to assign vendor to materials or material to vendor? our user wants that while taking drop down for vendor in ME21N screen, only vendors who sales materials, mentioned in purchase order, will be listed down.
Any idea to do this?
Best Regards,
AI.

Hi Al,
Let me first clear that, vendor and material is possible through the Source List only in case of purchase requisitions i.e. ME51N and not in case of ME21N.
Still it can be achieved through minor ABAP developement. We can add IF statement in the BADI related to ME21N and give the selection criteria as you desired vendor and material combination, so that same material get copied to PO once you use the particular vendor. As its almost like hard coding, this is not very advisable, but if the requirement is stringent then this is one of the possible solution.
Moreover Vendor to material combintation is only possible and not material to vendor. As according to transaction flow one need to enter org data and vendor first before proceeding to the further data entry.
come back in case you need to know more.

Field fixed vendor for purchase requisition (component of project)

Dear all,
Could you please indicate us how we can automatic fill the field "Fixed Vendor" (FLIEF) in a purchase requisition comming from a component of an activity (of a project)?
The field "Desired Vendor" (LIFNR) is filled automatic in the purchase requisition, based on the vendor given on the activity (field: RESBD-LIFNR)...
We want that both fields (fixed and desired vendor) are filled automatic in the purchase order...
Thank you.
Best regards,
Thomas

If you have maintained source list(ME01) and "info record"(ME11) for the desired vendor and material combination. It will default as "fixed vendor" in PR. Of course when you copy PR into PO, it is going ot copy the same.

Mahendra
