Hi,
Document types are created or used when your procurement processes are different to differentiate procurement process.
The item category determines whether the material defined in purchasing document
Requires a material number
Requires an account assignment
Is to be managed as a stock item
Requires a goods receipt (GR) and/or an invoice receipt (IR)
For you case in document Type NB item category B not allowed, just cross check(in following path) in other document Type, the item category B must be allowed.
SPRO->MM-> Purchasing -> Purchase Order->Define Document Types
(Allowed item category)

Hi ,
You can very well control this with the basis help.Pls inform to basis the role of a user which you want to restrict the access to transaction code.We can control this through the authorisation object concept with activities create/change/display/release etc.
Please don't use any exits for this,this is possible in standard SAP.

SAP Best Practice for Document Type./Item category/Acc assignment cat.

What is the Best Practice for the document Type & Item category
I want to use NB - Item category - B & K ( Blanket PO) , D ( Service) and T( Text) .
Is sap recommends to use FO Only for the Blanket Purchase Order.
We want to use service contract (with / without service entry sheet) for all our services.
We want to buy asset for our office equipments .
Which is the best one to use NB or FO ?
Please give me any OSS notes or reference for this
Thanks
Nick

Thank you very much for your response.
I hope I can provide some clarity on how the accounting needs to be handle per FERC Regulations. The G/L balance on the utility that is selling the assets will be in the following accounts (standard accounts across all FERC Regulated Utilities):
101 - Acquisition Value for the assets
108 - Accumulated Depreciation Value for the assets
For an example, there is Debit $60,000,000 in FERC Account 101 and a credit $30,000,000 in FERC Account 108. When the purchase occurs, the net book value for the asset will be on our G/L in FERC Account 102. Once we have FERC Approval to acquire the plant assets, we will need to enter the Acquisition Value and associated Accumulated Depreciation onto our G/L to FERC Account 101 and FERC Account 108 respectively with an offset to FERC Account 102.
The method that I came up with is to purchase the NBV of the assets to a clearing account. I then set up account assignments that will track the Acquisition Value and respective Accumulated Depreciation for each asset that is being purchased. I load the respective asset values using t-code AS91 and then make an entry to the 2 respective accounts with the offset against the clearing account using t-code OASV. Once my company receives FERC approval, I will transfer the asset to new assets that has the account assignments for FERC Account 101 and FERC Account 108 using t-code ABUMN or FB01.

Requirement for changing document type

Hello Gurus,
       when I want to change sales document type, there is a requirement as following :
" When you change the sales order type for a sales document that has already been saved, both sales document types must belong to the same number range."
my question is:
   1. can sales order type be changed ? most recommend to remove previouse sales order, and create new sales order with another sales order type.
   2. what does " the same number range" mean in the above quoted word ?
thanks very much

Different Order Type can share the same number range. In the case, if Sale Order Type is saved in Transaction, then it cannot be chaged.
The number range is controlled through Number Range Object, which is maintained in Sales Order Type (T.Code: VOV8).
Configuration steps are as under:
Normal Sales Order Cycle:-
Step 1: Sales Document Type
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
Sales Document Header:
1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
Sales Document Item:
1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category
Schedule Line:
1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.
Step 2:
IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >
1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.
Step 3:
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >
1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.
3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.
Note: Ensure that Copy Control settings are done
Sales Order to Sales Order (QT --> OR): VTAA
Sales Order to Delivery (OR --> LF): VTLA
Sales Order to Billing (OR --> F1): VTFA
Delivery to Billing(LF --> F2): VTFL
Billing to Sales Order (F2 --> RE): VTAF
The configuration differs from scenario to scenario & requirement of the client.

Looking for a function that returns the currently opened document type

Dear SAP gurus
I have a user exit for transaction VA02. In VA02, when I click on button (Item details-configuration),
it launches a URL in a browser. I am asked to add to the URL, values like Document Type, Document Number
and Line Item Number.
I can get Document Number and Line Item Number from the presently opened Sales Document by using the standard Function 'CUCB_GET_OWNER_OF_CFG'.
However, I am not able get the value of Document Type. Is there any function that will give me
the value of the Document type of the present document that is open.
Any feedback/Suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ram

If you're in a VA02 user exit, the document type should be in VBAK-AUART, if I remember the field name correctly. I would think that ANYWHERE in VA02, that field will be available to you.
If you want the text of the document type, forward navigate from vbak-auart data element to the domain and look at the values...there'll be a config (T) table (and you may need to add T to the end to get the associated text table) that describes the document type in your system's language, like:
E OR Order
or something like that... Sorry, in my installation, we don't use the logistics modules, so I'm writing from memory.

Document type restriction in GL posting.

Dear All,
How can i restrict a GL account to have only one specific document type documents. I mean only one document type should be posted to that GL.
It should not contain any other document type other than specified one.
I know this is possible through validation. But it is not checking if i write validation in OB28. If possible can any one guide me in writing the validationIs there any other way to restrict
a GL for only one document type.
Please reply...thanks in advance.
sapuser.

Hi,
To make the GL account specific to a particular document type, you can write the validation as below:-
Step 1:-
Create a message ID via transaction code SE91 for message class /EACC/MSG/ACC_COMP as you want to display to user.
Step 2:-
Go to transaction GGB0 and create the validation step at complete document level in Financial Accounting as below:-
Pre Requisits:-
BKPF-BLART = 'KR'. (example KR doument type)
Check:-
BSEG-HKONT <> '1234567890' (the account no. you want to get posted only with the document type given above.)
Message:-
Message created in step 1 as error message.
Step 3:-
Please also check that this validation has active status (Status=1) at line line item level (level 2) for your company code in transaction OB28.

Gaurav

Hi Alex,
For Character devices, you have to use SAPConsole.
For GUI devices if you want to use online, it should be ITSMobile(Earlier this was WebSAPConsole).
Thanks.

Oracle B2B not picking up Document type and document version from JMS msg

Hi,
We have developed guideline and schema for a custom positional flat file using Oracle B2B Document Editor. We were able to creat and deploy the agreement. But when we drop a message on a Queue being listened by Oracle B2B. The document type and version values were empty. We got the following error,
Error Code B2B-50083
Error Description Machine Info: (xxxxx) Description: Document protocol identification error.
Error Level ERROR_LEVEL_COLLABORATION
Error Severity ERROR
Error Text Document protocol identification error.
This is our Java code for testing that drops the message, and I can see the JMS header with these values.
message.setText(messageText);
message.setStringProperty("FROM_PARTY", "CT-Sender");
//message.setStringProperty("FROM_PARTY", "RemoteTP");
message.setStringProperty("TO_PARTY", "MyCompany");
message.setStringProperty("DOCTYPE_NAMEe", "CT");
message.setStringProperty("DOCTYPE_REVISION", "CT-AES");
We were able to test a 850 document successful through different document and agreement ....
Thanks

Order type & Item Category

Dear SAPers,
i used to work with the standard Order Type and Item Category. Now i decided to copy and change them. By raising the sales order (with my order type 9OR) i don't get the item category 9TAN that i created. How can i solve that.
Thanks

Hi
Go to (VOV4) and do the Item category Determination for your Sales Document Type, Item Category Group & Default Item category. if this assignment is done, then once u raise the sales order then u can find your item category.
Hope this will help.
Thanks & Regards

PO - Document Type FO and Item Category B - Can they be transferred to SUS?

Hi SDN
We are using R/3 4.7 with SRM 5.0 - Classic Scenario and XI 4.0. We are just about to launch an SUS project to put our PO's on SUS for our suppliers. Our organization is dealing with PO's for both Goods and Services. As we know that there are no problems about putting the GR-Type PO's (NB type) on SUS but I would like to know if it is possible to transfer PO's that would be from the Document Type FO and Item Category B (Blanket PO) to SUS and ensure that our suppliers can do the entire PO Acknowledgement, PO Change and post the Invoice via SUS. If not, what are the options for our R/3 - SUS installation?
Thanks!

SD - Two message category for an invoice document type

Good morning all,
I use InterCompany biling in SD with standard invoice document type 'IV' and message category 'RD04' (which enables vendor invoice creation).
My customer asks to be able to print a form for the intercompany bills.
For the non intercompany bills this is actually performed by using a specific message category.
So my question is : is there any way to have TWO message category ('RD04' + specific message for form) automatically attached to an intercompany bill (customizing, user-exit,...) ?
Best regards.
Didier GOBLET.

Hi Didier
Assign the logic to the RD04 output type smartform.Then it is possible,In the smartform include the logic that it should automatically attach to the intercompany billing.

Change Purchase Requisition Document Type when item category is D

Hi experts,
i have problem, when i put servis number in to the servis line i havent change Purchase Requisition Document Type. Account
Assignment Category is K and Item Category is D. It is standard of Purchase Requisition? When i set that i can change document type when item category is D.
When i putting only material i can change Purchase Requisition Document.
Thx for your answer.
Laco

Hi,
One thing please note that once you select the document type and draft the PR and save the PR, you will get the doc number.
Once you get the document number you cannot change the PR document type .
The reason is document type is linked with number range so it cannot be changed because different seriers of document number is assined to differentdocument type.
And moreover document type is linked with the screen settings also. So I would request you to check the settings for each doc. type
