Draw back of Automatic PO creation

Dear Friends,
What are all the draw backs will come if i cxreate PO automatically once GR posted.
Kindly explain me.
Rgds,
Sankar.D

Prerequisits.
a) Movement type has to be selected for automatic creation of PO in customizing (IM - GR - Create PO automatically)
b)Assign Std. Purchasing Org. to plant (Enterprise structure - Assignment - MM)
c)Define default values for PO document type depending on T-Code MB01
d)Material should be valuated material with material master
e)Valid price should be there in Purchasing Info. record.
There are no drawbacks as such , but you can only procure valuated materials, PO of consumable materials is ruled out .
Check the possibilities and let us know what is your specific requirement.

  • How to automate the creation of Function Module & Class Object (SE24)

    Experts,
    I have the requirement to automate the creation of any type of programs: ie function module (like how we normally create in SE37 together with the parameters), class object (like how we normally create in SE24 together with attribute & method), normal report (like how we did in SE38), module pool and so on.
    For example. I backuped my program into a flat file (the entire source code in txt formal or HTML) through a download program and I need to upload back this flat file into another installation of SAP.
    Does SAP provide any predefined FM to cater for the above cases or better still, does anyone know of any upload program which I can use for the above requirement.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Kris, I can't use the transport system as these are 2 separate SAP installation in a different place. The requirement came in the form of creation of program to be able to generate FM/Class/Report on the go.

  • Automatic Batch Creation at  the time of GR for Customer Returns

    Hi All,
    We are using batch management with functionality of automatic batch creation for variuos movement type 101/103/105/561 etc. with updation of classification in foreground. 
    We are even using automatic batch creation for Inbound delivery. By configuring IMG object "Batch creation Control for Inbound"
    Now we have a new requirement of automatic Batch creation for GR of Customer Return against Customer Return SO (Movement type 651). And updation of classification in foreground.
    I have tried a lot but couldn't find how to configure the same.
    Can I create GR custmor returns 651 thru transaction MIGO?
    Any suggestion how to achieve this.
    Thanks
    Sanjay

    Hi,
    What Sairam said is correct, the idea of automatic batch creation is so that when you manaufacture or create an item you can allocate the characteristics to that batch and give it a number.
    You then sell that batch to a customer.
    When the customer returns the item the system should NOT automatically allocate a new batch number to it because this is breaking a VERY important audit trail.
    In batch management (in some inductries more than  others) it is VITAL to have a full audit trail of a bathc so that any problems concerning that batch can be traced back to their origin. What you are trying to do is to break that audit trail (although I can fully understand what you are trying to do).
    I would leave the batch allocation for returns as manual and then when you transafer the item from returns to unrestricted (or quality etc.) tyou can then input the new characteristics.

  • RMAN Automatic Datafile Creation

    Hi,
    Could anyone please explain me RMAN Automatic Datafile Creation in oracle 10g with example.
    Thanks in advance
    regards,
    Shaan

    Hi,
    Automatic Datafile Creation - RMAN will automatically create missing datafiles in two circumstances. First, when the backup controlfile contains a reference to a datafile, but no backup of the datafile is present. Second, when a backup of the datafile is present, but there is no reference in the controlfile as it was not backed up after the datafile addition.

  • Automatic PO creation of free text PR

    Hi!
    We have all our PRs in free text since we are not yet using material master. One of our purchase organization will only order from one vendor and they will enter that vendor and price in the PR. Is it possible to create a PO automatically from that PR without a material or source list?
    Sincerely
    Anders

    Hi
    Thank you very much. Is it possible to restrict the automatic creation to a certain purchase organization?
    If I understand you right:
    1) Create PR with item category D Service
    2) Activate automatic PO creation in ML91
    That will create POs for all PRs created as a service?
    Sincerely
    Anders

  • Problem during automatic PO creation

    Hi,
                I have run MRP for a certain material using MD03 .Message shows MRP run successfully.Then I checked the status of this by using transactions MD04 and it shows the PR no for that material.But when I want to create automatic PO through ME59n using that PR no , message shows no suitable PR exist.I have also set the Automatic PO indicator in Material master Purchasing view.
                 What is the reason behimd it.

    Hi,
    For automatic PO creation follow the below points.
    1) Material Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box
    2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
    3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.
    4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.
    5) Create a Purchase Requisition.
    6) Use T.Code: ME59N & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
    Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
    If you have more than one vendor then fixe only one vendor in source list.
    Did you set source determination during PR creation

  • Error during automatic po creation ME59N

    Dear All,
    Following errors has been shown after automatic po creation by ME59N:-
    Message text Message Class Message Number
    PO could not be created
    PO header data still faulty MEPO 2
    Enter Validity End ME 83
    Enter Latest GR Date ME 83
    Can delivery date be met? ME 40
    Requisition could not be converted
    Please suggest how to solve above .
    with regards,
    Pradeep Bhardwaj

    Hi
    From the messages it seems that system is expecting a Validity end date at PO header & Latest GR date at item level.
    Do you have these two fields as required in the PO??
    If these are required fields then you need to have process to populate them automatically (Programatically) to resolve the error.
    Thanx

  • SRM Classic - Automatic PO creation in R/3 only for PReqs based on catalogs

    Dear Experts,
    in SRM 7.0 Classic Scenario, i am facing the following question w.r.t. automatic PO creation on the R/3 side:
    Is it possible to have automatic PO creation in R/3 only for those purchase requisition items, that are based on shopping cart items from a third party punch out catalog?
    The idea is, that the requisitioner on the SRM EBP side shops in a catalog. Once the the SC is approved and the purchase requisition is created in the R/3 system, automatically a PO should be created based on that PReq. This would save the time for the buyer, who do not need to pay attention to this document, because the purchase from the catalog guarantees the buyer, that the already pre-agreed conditions are getting applied.
    But PReqs that are based on Free Text shopping cart EBP items must not be taken into account for the automatic PO creation.
    Is there a way to distinguish between the catalo-based and the non-catalog based PReq positions?
    Thank you.

    Hello Ashutosh,
    thank you very much for that idea!
    I would have the following question w.r.t. to such configuration:
    If i configure that the PO creation for complete SC should happen for a certain purchasing group, would it be somehow possible to arrange that when a Catalog item is put into the shopping cart, that only that certain purchasing group gets defaultet? (the idea behind this is, to leave the free text shopping carts to already known purchasing groups and to keep the purchase requisition as the backend object for this configuration. And additionally to create new purchasing groups, that should be linked to the catalog purchases and to POs as the backend objects).
    Thanks again for the help!

    Hello,
      to check the errors issued I suggest to try to create the PO converting the PR from transaction ME21N.
    I guess that some fields, mandatory for the PO creation, were not filled in the Purchase Request and could not be determined in any different way. If you can't maintain them on the PR you should set them as optional, if possible, in the customizing for Screen lay-out of transaction ME59N, under "Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Define Screen Layout at Document Level".
    Hope to be useful.
    Best regards,

  • Automatic PO creation from SC

    Hi Experts,
    I am using SRM 7.0 with extended classic scenario and I have issue in the automatic po creation. For some Shopping Carts the PO is not automatically created. The SC is having Source of Supply Assigned and all the approves have completely approved the SC.  The latest status is  I1111          Item in Transfer Process.
    I checked in RZ20, ST22 and could not find any error or dumps.
    For the SC item under BBP_PDBEI the BE_OBJECT_TYPE is BUS2201 and BE_OBJECT_ID 1, once I trigger the PO creation manually the PO object id is reflected here.
    For such SC I am running the report BBP_ALERT_SB_NOTTRANSFERED manually which puts the SC in I1112 Error in Transmission Status and later I can trigger the SC creation from the alert monitor.
    For POs created in this manner the PO is created in Held Status without any line items, is this normal?
    I have two questions which I want to understand, how is the automatic po creation from SC setup, is there any customizing involved for the po creation from SC to happen automatically?
    What else should I check to find the reason why the the SC was stuck in I1111 status and PO was not created?

    You need to configure the Purchasing group and this will take care of automatic transfer of Doc to sourcing cockpit. Make sure you also maintain the customization for sourcing always carried out for Prod categories.

  • Automatic Po creation With MB01 i am getting Error

    Hi ,
    While doing goods receipt for  Automatic Po creation i am getting error
    MM activated Automatic Po
    VM activated Automatic Po
    101 Mov Type is also activated
    Item 00010 of purchasing document 9999999999 does not exist
    Message no. ME706
    Diagnosis
    Purchase order 00010 with item 9999999999 was not found.
    Procedure
    Enter a different purchase order.
    i given  the Vendor and quantity  after entering error is coming
    Please help
    Manjunath

    HI,
    Pls ceck the points mentioned below.
    Define one of the purchase organizations as Standard Purchase Organization
    Assign your plant to Standard Purchase Organization
    Maintain purchasing information record with price
    Maintain the indicator for movement types 101 & 161
    Define Default Values (MB01) for Document Type
    Now you can enter a goods receipt without entering the purchase order number, a purchase order will be created automatically when you post the goods receipt. All such goods receipt will be valuated at the price maintained in the purchasing information record.
    First you can try this with T. Code MB01 if it is working then try with T. Code MIGO, if you face any error or functionality is not working check with your basis consultant some authorization or some patches may be missing. Ask him to apply all relevant patches.
    Thanks

  • Automatic PO creation (ME59)

    Hi,
    1) source list and purchase info records both are mandatory for automatic PO creation ? with missing data in either of one, can I proceed ME59
    2) if i have mentioned one material for two or more vendors in ME01 and ME11, which vendor will be assigned to PO
    regards

    Hi,
    Just to add make sure your material master IS TICKED for automatic PO creation and vendor record is also ticked.
    You should have a valid info record that consist of valid conditions.
    Thanks

    Dear Vasant,
    For automatic PO at the time of GR following are the prerequisites:
    1) In Customizing
    a) Auto PO generation must be activated in Mov. Type 101 & 161
    b) the plant for which GR is entered must be assigned to standard Pur. Org.
    c) Default Document type for PO must be specified in GR ( MB 01)
    2) Application - Front end side
    a) material must be valuated material
    b) Purchasing Info record must exist for vendor , material & standard Pur Org.
    c) Conditions in Info Records must be valid.
    d) Applicable for stock items & not consumable items
    e) you cannot enter any movement in GR block stock
    f) Material Master & vendor master records must.
    If you ensure all above settings then it is possible to have auto PO during GR.
    Please try,

    Thank you.

    Auto PO transaction ME59N comes with huge selection crieteria. If you can distinguish between catelog vs non catalog requisition then it very easy to set up variant to filter non catalog based requistion. you can also think about ehnacement of polulating text fields like Requisitioner or Requirement tracking number  with unque idetifier  in case of non catalog based PR then you can set variant to filter out those requistions..
