Determination of Porg for MRP generated PRs
Hello All,
We have a requirement to transfer the PR into the SRM after ensuring that the Porg is also available so that
only the unsourced items are sent to the SRM for sourcing.
For certain MRP generated PRs wew finsd that the Porg is not available .
In order that the Porg (the standard Porg assigned to the plant) is to be detrmined in the PR
is there any user exit or a development may be required?If so what and where can we influence this pls?
We are working with SRM 5.0 and ECC 6.0 and R3 4.70 as a Back end systems

Hi nagaraj
it makes sense . i will explore and tell you.
what about your source assignment standard program. hope it will assign source of supply if it is a valid unique source of supply else it will assign eprofile to your purcase request. check with technical resource how the satndard program behaves.
i will also explore my side again. check mm forum too on your purchase organisation assignment for your userexists.
one question to you.
when you create a PR for material and go to source of supply .why do we get many fixed vendors like contracts,info record if we have valid fixed vendors as sap ecc standard.but in my PR i may not have Purchase organisation information.

Separate Doc.Type for MRP generated PRs
Dear All
We are facing an issue with MRP process where we want to automate the process from MRP run to PO creation.
In source list we will add the existing contracts and make it relevant to MRP so that after MRP run we will get source (vendor defined in the contract) assigned purchase requisitions. After that, we will create a background job for ME59n in order to get the POs automatically after MRP run.
In this process we are facing issue with the auto PO generation through ME59n as funds management (FM) related parameters such as Fund and Fund center need to be enetered manually at the time of PO creation in our system. So in order to avoid this manual entry we want to define FM derivation which automatically populate the fund & fund center in the MRP generated PRs.
Further, we have two options for FM derivation one is valuation class and the second one is Document type. If we define the FM derivation based on the valuation class we cannot only restrict to MRP generated PRs. Second option is separate document type for MRP generated PRs.
Please provide pros and cons regarding the creation of new document type for MRP. Also, please provide your suggestions or any work arounds for the above discussed scenario. Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Best practices for approval of MRP generated PRs
Hi, all. I'd very much like to route our MRP generated purchase requisitions directly to the Purchasing department without the need for additional approvals, regardless of $ amount.
PRs not generated by MRP (manual) will still need to pass through a release strategy.
What is the standard industry practice for processing MRP generated PRs?
What have you seen?
Thanks in advance.
SarahHi,
Well i haven't come across a situation which requires an approval of MRP generated PR's.
If the process of loading demands is controlled, then the output from MRP is by default controlled, unless there is some specific enhancements put in MRP calculation which does a change.
So if there is no such enahancements, then i do not see a need for the same.
So from a good practise perspective, i would look at controlling the demand & the manner in which it is entered into the system.

How to configure wokflow for MRP generated & manually created PR
Dear Gurus,
I have to customize SAP workflow for releasing Purchase requisitions. I will be using enhancement M06B0001 for my own role resolution.
I have some questions regarding workflow
1) How to configure workflow for MRP generated & manually created PR?What are the steps? what are the limitations in doing so?
2) Since we are facing the problem of insufficient user license ,How to send notifications to NON SAP users?(We have thought of creating a Z table for the same)
Looking forward to your reply,
Thanks in advance,
Best regards
Tushar
SAP MM ConsultantDear Mike,
Thanks for your reply, & sorry for not responding on time.
Here are my constraints:
1) Not a single component of HR module will be implemented.(Project management decision:-()
2) Number of user licenses are less, considering the workflow users.(Hence we have thought of creating Z table for employee nos. & EMAIL IDs ,& this table will be accessed by using M06B0001 user exit.(It is still in development phase. Truely speaking, dont know whether it will work or not).If this works out ,then I believe, record from SU01 will not be used (Please correct me here).
3)We have 2 instances on development server.(in short,2 separate installations on same server by creating additional instance). What are the implications of this particular system landscape on workflow? Whether workflow will work or not??:-(, :-(.
The reason I asked you 3rd question is , As soon as 2 nd instance was created on development server, Short Dumps are coming while running transactions of Workflow builder.(SWDD & PFTC).It is giving error" Table is unknown or does not exist". Description of error says"The current program"SAPLSWF3 had to be terminated because one of the statements could not be executed."
"An SAP Open SQL Statement contains a table that does not exist in the database or is not listed in the ABAP Data dictionary.The Table is "SWF_WFPDSC" or another table is accessed in the statement.
Program=SAPLSWF3
Include=LSWF3U05
Row=22
Module name=SWF_WFP_REPOSITORY_CONTENT_GET
The same dump is coming while accessing SWF_WFPVW table from SE16.
Request to Mike & all of you, help me in this regard.
Thanks in Advance,

Release strategy for MRP generated PR.
Dear friends,
Can we have release strategy for MRP generated purchase requisitions.....
What are the steps required if yes.....
Plz. suggest....
Thanks in advance
NavinHI,
IF you want to characteris MRP genrated PR then you have to define different document type other than the standrad one.
For this MRP define the release stratergy has usual procedure.
In case if ou dont have a different document type also the standard release procedure which you have conffigured will hold good.
Thanks & Regards,

Release Strategy not working for MRP generated PR
I have one qurey. Currently we are release strategy for normal PR.Now client want to activate release strategy for MRP generated PR.
current Release Strategy for normal PR configured as following.
Purchase requisition document RV
Purchase requisition document ZADV
Purchase requisition document ZIMP
Purchase requisition document ZSER
Purchase requisition document ZSTD
Purchase requisition document ZSTR
Purchasing group A01
Total value of requisition for > 1.00 INR
Creation indicator (purchase r Realtime (manual)
Overall release of purchase re Yes
For MRP generated PR I add creation indicator B - Material requirements Planning.Even after add creation indicator release strategy is not triggering for PR.
To trigger PR any setting need to do other than add creation indicator.
Regards
SathishHi
You don't have to include creation indicator as parameter. Check in what documnet type MRP PR is generated. You can see it in t.code OMDT. At document type level also you can manage it. You need to include creation indicator only if a seperate person approves MRP generated PR.
To know how to configure release procedure see the below link

Document type selection for MRP generated Purchase Requisition
Hi,
when I run MRP ,for externlal procurement items system is creating Purchase Requisition with Document type NB.How to make system to take different Document type automatically with MRP.
Thanks and Regards
Raghavendra PaiDear,
Go to SPRO-Materials Management--Purchasing Purchase RequisitionDefine Document types
Copy the NB and create and New Document type
You can default the document type from the MRP group.
Customizing is done in OPPZ transaction.
Once you have entered the MRP group to your material master MRP view, then next MRP run will create the requistions using the document types maintained to the MRP group.
Please refer the OSS Notes- 46919 and this thread,
Purchase req doc type in MRP

PO Release Strategy - Only for Non MRP generated materials
Hello,
I have a requirement in which any material which was generated via MRP (via PR) should not go through a release strategy at the PO level, but a non MRP generated PR should...
Is this possible at all? I know its possible at the PR level, but not sure at the PO... Would this be a case where we would need to added a field to the CEKKO structure thats for MRP generated PRs ?
ThanksHi,
By business any PO created, should follow release procedure as PO a committed document which will further send to vendor.
If you are sure about your requirement, PO created from MRP PR should not follow release strategy, then no need to go for any User Exit.
Just create separate document type for PR (ZMNB) , create separate document type MRP PO( ZMNB) and link MRP PO document type ( ZMNB) with MRP PR document type( ZMNB) in flowing path:
SPRO>MM>Purchasing>Purchase Order>Define Document Types
Now select your ZMNB B Purchase Order Document type and click link purchase requisition document type in Dialog Structure, enter ZMNB Purchase Requisition Document type with a new entry & save.
As you created release characteristics of document type (CEKKO with BSART), then do not keep Value u201CMRP PO document type (ZMNB) u201Cin the release characteristics of document type and design your release strategies.
Now create your PO with MRP PO document type (ZMNB) and see no release strategy triggered.

Item Number in MRP generated PR missing
Hi all
I am encountering a little problem in my MRP Run. All of the MRP generated PRs I have do not have the item number in the PRs. This creates a problem in the ABAP report that we are using.
What causes this and how do I solve it?
Please helpHi Obie,
Can you just elebarate little more about your problem. Is the item number tab displayed in the PR? If displayed and its blank then apart from OMDV also check PR document type settings with the help of your MM consultant or follow the below mentioned path for it.
IMG->Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types.
And if its not displayed in the PR screen then just check the Layout for PR.
Regards,
Hiren
