Direct Procurement to own stock

Hi,
I have a material which has been directly procured to a production order. The production order is no longer valid and the material has to be transferred to own stock.
How can I do that? Which movement type do I use?
Please help me out with this issue.
Sincerely,
Puja

Hi Rahim,
I do not see an option in movement type 411 to transfer from direct procurement (production order) to own stock.
These are the following options that I see for movement 411
411          Transfer posting storage location (one-step)
411     E     Transfer posting sales order to own
411     K     Transfer posting consignment to own
411     Q     Transfer posting project to own
Can you please let me know how can I do it using movement 411?
Thanks,
Puja

Which movement type to show Directly Procured material in stock?

Hi All
Is there another movement type that I can use to reverse from a network, Directly Procured material in to stock?
Our issue is that we plan and have delivered directly procured material to out production plant (Plant A) and the PO has an account assignment of 'N'. The production team then decide (due to unforseen issues) that they do not need it anymore for that network/WBS and want to send it to our central warehouse (Plant B)
In order to recover the cost from the network, we process MB1A mvt 222 with reference to the WBS in Plant A and then stock transfer to our central warehouse, Plant B
My question is....can we use another movement type to remove the cost from the project/network/WBS and return the material in to stock?
I don't want to reverse the PO but can i use that as a reference?
Your help is appreciated
Regards
Darren

MB1A transaction is a goods issue
goods issues are valuated with the material master valuation price.
in goods issues you cannot reference purchase orders (this is only possible in receipts)
there is no goods receipt transaction for material which was already received against a PO.
You credit the network with the leading price from material master, there is no value flow in the opposite direction. But you can control the valuation if you allow external value entry in the movement, which is usually not liked by auditors, especially as such movements are executed by warehouse personnel

Directly procured materials in stock help

To All
We currently have a problem when dealing with directly procured materials.
Following a completed build of our product we have a surplus of directly proceured materials that have been ordered in error or are a result of specification changes.
We want to re-use them for future demand. Therefore, we return them from a network and put into our warehouse and in a bin. The problem arises when the planners create a new demand because the material master data will order the part as a directly procured part and will 'not see' the one we are showing in stock.
Therefore, my questions is, can a part be set up to look for stock initially and if no stock then order part as a directly procured part?
Thanks in advance
Darren

Saleel
The material IS in stock showing in the same Plant, Sloc and Warehouse that the planners use to plan the completed product.
The material is in stock as it has been returned from the network (MB1A mvt 222) However, the material is planned in a BoM as a directly procured part as per the material master settings. When a new demand is loaded in the system, according to the material master settings it will order a directly procured part and not utilise the stock in the warehouse.
I am looking for help that when a demand is loaded, SAP will reserve the stock of a directly procured part and not order externally.
Movement 561 is an initial stock load movement type and is not recommended at any other time due to the lack of financial documents albeit a very easy way to load inventory. We use LICC/LX16 to adjust inventory in accordance with auditing rules.
Thanks you for your response

Direct Procurement in Classic Scenario

Hi Experts,
We are on SRM 7 Ehp1, ECC 6 Ehp4.
Classic Scenario.
1. I have read in the forums , that in Classic Scenario, direct procurement is possible but the system behaves like Extended Classic and creates a Local PO. Just want to confirm this and if yes , does this happen as a standard or do we need to implement any BADI or anything to achieve this.
2. Also , in Classic Scenario, PDP scenario , can we transfer stock items(Direct Materials) PR's into SRM system or are there any limitations.
Thanks
Aditya

Hi Aditya,
You are right. Classic system behaves as extended classic for Direct procurement scenario. Your PO will be created in SRM itself and a copy of this will be sent to ECC. This happens as a standard and no BADIs need to be implemented for this.
Also in your classic system, you can transfer stock PRs into SRM. These will be available as shopping carts in the sourcing cockpit.

Rounding value for direct procurement

Hi,
I an sourcing the same material from another plant within the same client. The materiale is some times purchased as a standard material using rounding value and going to stock. But, in some cases the material is procured as direct procurement. When purchasing for direct procurement will it then be possible not to use the rounding value but just order the exact quantity?
thanks,
Anders

Hi Andres,
I think, you do not need to take any action on this requirement. SAP works the way you wanted, by standard. For example, you have a setup with a vendor (may be via info record or material master itself may have rounding qty etc)...not a problem. The parameters you use in material master will control for procurement process either triggered from planning (or production ) or manual purchases. When you create a SO# and if it triggers a purchase requisition, it sends exact quantity required only, into the preqs. By standard SAP config, the message about rounding rules is just warning. I don't think you will be stuck with this message when you try to convert the 3rd party Preq to PO. Even if there is a message, it must just warning.
Let me know with these inputs, if you test both types of PO#s, how it goes.
Regards

Procurement of non stock items without using material master?

Hi Experts
My company follows third party scenerio with non stock items . The procurement process starts from creating a PR thru network by entering a material master and other purchasing information in component overview. I have come to know from some sources that in case of non stock items we may process the same by not using the material master and just entering a material description and other purchase related information. So, my questions is:
Is it possible to follow the procurement process for non stock items without using material master? And if it is Yes, then how will i maintain the tax coditions which i generally do for material and vendor combinations.
Thanks

Hi Chandra,
It is mostly used in projects where you are directly procuring materials for projects and no need to track the inventory.
But i think it is better to create to material Master and use that Material with item cat L so that at any point of time we can track inventory .

Direct procurment indicator in production order

hi
I found in a production order, there is a "1" maintained under "direct procurment indicator " which means "external procurment" for an item, and a purchase requisition is generated for it. And in CO02 I just can't remove it.
I wanna know where does this come from and what should I do if I wanna delete it, thanks.

Dear Lauliu,
1.For all non-stock items which are represented with item category N as BOM items,this is the standard SAP behaviour(system
will be setting value 1 in direct procurement in the production order).
2.Only by making that particular item as a stockable item(to be represented as item category L) this can be met.But I would
suggest you not to make that change because generally the pipe line materials or any component that will be required for
specific header material's order will be generally maintained as non-stock item and the purchasing data can be maintained there
itself.
for what business requirement do you want to change this?
check and revert back.

Planning Horizon & Direct procurement

Hi, how touse the tabs planning horizon & direct procurement in oppr screen while running mrp?

Hi Yadav
The Settings of
1) Planning Horizon in OPPR is meant for using Processing key - -NETPL (Net change for planning horizon) during MRP run : If u maintain the data say 100 days in this field that mean only those materials are planned in the planning run that have a change relevant to MRP within the period (in work days).The length of the planning horizon should at least include the following:
period in which customer orders enter
delivery times
complete material processing time
This setting is useful to restrict u r planning Horizon length to defined no of days say 100 days
2) Direct Procurement : The setting controls whether direct procurement is initiated by the planning run or by the production order.Using this indicator, you can procure non-stock items directly for an order, bypassing the warehouse.Direct procurement for "parts to be provided" is not supported in subcontracting.
U have to use Special Procurement key in Material master

Direct procurement and Indirect Procurement in SAP AFS

Hi,
Can you diffrentiate between Direct procurement and Indirect Procurement in SAP AFS.
thanks
Aki

Hi Aki,
Direct Procurement
Raw Material and Production Goods
Order Qty: Large
Value: Industry specific (Like shirt in apparel industry)
Direct procurement supports the conversion of planned requirements to purchase orders.
Primary Processes-Direct Procurement
1. Determination of the materials and services required.
2. Create requisition.
3. Request for the quotation.
4. Quotation Management.
5. Vendor selection.
6. Create Purchase Order.
7. Goods Receipt and Invoice Receipt.
8. Invoice Verification/ Vendor Payment.
Indirect Procurement
Maintenance, Repair and Operating (MRO) Supplies
Order Qty: Low
Value: Generic (Machine Spare Parts in any industry)
Indirect procurement supports the purchasing of indirect materials and subcontracting.
This process can be dealt with using standard functions such as material requirements planning, purchase requisition, stock transport order, transportation planning and the handling of internal deliveries.
The cross-plant, internal procurement of materials can be carried out within one company code (intercompany) or by using several company codes (cross company).
Primary Processes-Indirect Procurement
1. Requisitioning
2. Purchase Order Management
3. Receiving
4. Financial Settlement
Hope it helps.

Direct Procurement and Direct Production

Dear all,
Can you please explain to me what is "Direct Procurement", and "Direct Production" base on the following points:
1 - What is the process about?
2 - How and when business requirement will bump into and using these two processes?
3 - Example
Please don't copy and paste the SAP help portal explanation as I have read the SAP help-portal and am NOT understand
thanks very much
tuffy

Dear Tuffy,
Direct Production:
1.The components for which individual production orders are created in a collective order concept are called as directly
produced component.
2.In my understanding these components are identified with the value 52 set for special procurement key in MRP2 view of the
material master.
3.Direct production cannot be set for the components that have any one of the indicator set for - by product, co-
product,alternative item with usage probablity 0 or alternative item with strategy 2,discontinued material,follow up material,intra
material.
4.This concept atleast helps in understanding the cost breakup than the phantom assembly concept.
5. Example:
You want to produce a pump. The BOM for the pump contains a pressure regulating valve and a spiral casing. You want to
enter these two components in separate production orders, but you do not want them to be posted to stock.
You set the special procurement type to direct production in the material master record for the pressure regulating valve and
the spiral casing, so that production occurs using a collective order.
When you create a production order for the pump, a collective order is automatically created, which contains subordinate
production orders for the pressure regulating valve and the spiral casing.
Direct Procurement:__
1.Direct Procurement is generally used for non-stock items that is defined with item category N or defined using special
procurement key for direct procurement.
2.This is widely used in the case of Make ot order or Engineer to Order production where the stock of such materials are not
inventory managed.

MRP element direct procurement

Hi
For the FG used strategy 10 no special procurement key..MRP type:PD
For the RM MRP type PD, MRP4 view Ind/collective indicator 2 maintained.
After running MRP for rawmaterials Purchase requisation are creating with out consideraing the stock as "Direct procurement" MRP element.
I checked in OPPQ maintained indicator as 3.
What are the possible reasons. we dont want to create PR as per direct procuremet we want collective.
Regards,
srihari.M

Hi,
Check the BOM for the FG material if any SPK is maintained in BOM. IN MD04 put the cursor on PR generated and click on Pegged Requiremnt Button, this will give you the osurce from where the direct requirement has been generated and analyse further from that point.
Check and Revert,

Purchase order directly procured

Hello all, I am working in SRM 7.0
I know that when I create a purchase requisition with direct procurement shopping cart, default account assignment is U. But for example if shopping cart has all data complete and generate a purchase order, which account assignment put as default?
Thanks in advance
Rosa Rodríguez

Hello Muthu, yes, I know that. But I am refering to purchase order that is created when you create a shopping cart as direct.
If you create a shopping cart as direct and it generates a purchase requisition in SRM, then purchase requisition has as account assignment category U.
In this case, I want to create a shopping cart as direct, but it generates a purchase order in SRM. Which account assignment category put?
Thanks in advance
