EFB parameter

Hi,
We have a requirement that service order (SV document class) can not be create with a purchase requisition but in PO (NB document class) is mandatory. In SPRO we set the EFB parameters for selection field NBF (is used for PO, not for service order), and for service order we created SVF as selection field but we don’t set any configuration for EFB parameters. When user (who have the EFB parameters in SU01) create a service order in me21n an error message for restriction appears, this message is about authorisation settings.
I want to know why me21n shows this message if settings for selection field SVF in SPRO don’t exist.
Thanks,
Lili.

Hi Lili,
Paramater EFB is Function Authorization for Purchase Orders.
Use OMET you create your Function Auth and assign it to users against parameter EFB. That's why you are getting this error for authorisation.
If you dont want this error message , remove the parameter EFB using SU01 or SU3

  • Price Not Copied from PR to PO with EFB parameter (Function Authorization)

    Dear All,
    We are doing upgrade of our system from SAP 4.7 to ERP 6.0 system.
    I am using the configuration at following path to copy price from PR to PO.
    SPRO: Materials Management > Purchasing > Authorization Management > Define Function Authorizations for Buyers > Function Authorizations: Purchase Order > I have created Function Authorization > Tab > General Parameters > Adopt PO Price.
    Well, the same functionality works in SAP 4.7 system, but it doesnot work in ERP 6.0 system.
    Can you please help me?
    Kind Regards,

    If you have implmented the functionality as given in OSS note: 393337. Then the price is copied from PR to PO.
    I am referring to below functionality:
    Contents form OSS note: 393337.
    Customizing was not set to be able to adopt the price.
    Field EBAN-BPUEB is therefore equal value ' ' at the time the purchase
    requisition is used to generate a Purchase Order.
    Solution
    Change customizing accordingly:
    Function Authorizations are set up up in the IMG:
    Material Management -> Purchasing -> Authorization management ->
    Define Function Authorization for Buyers.
    In here choose: "Function Authorizations: Purchase order"
    In here you may specify a number of Function Authorization keys.
    For each key, you may set rights for the key.
    The field in question is "Order price adoption" (T160D-EBPUEB) which
    must be ticked.
    Then back out and now choose "Maintain Users".
    In here choose tab "Parameters" and enter parameter ID "EFB" along
    with the value equal to the key you just maintained.
    (Remember to use Capitals when entering the key value)
    In ME51N in the item detail screen, tab "Valuation", the field
    "PO price" will now be visible and can be maintained via a dropdown.
    The field will have following possible values:
    - "Do not adopt"
    SAP Note Nr. 393367 01.04.2009 Page 1
    - "As gross price" and
    - "As net price"
    equivalent to the values ' ', '1' and '2' in field EBAN-BPUEB.
    When '1' or '2' a price will be transferred to the Purchase Order when
    the purchase requisition is referenced.
    Can you please me?
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Purchasing - Alternate to EFB parameter for authority chec

    Hi Folks,
    I need to restrict the user from entering Purchasing conditions via Me22n. Normally this is achieved by maintaining user parameter EFB in SU3, but this can be deleted by the user. Please suggest an alternate solution if you have done this before.
    Thank you for your time.

  • Restricting users from removing EFB paramter

    Dear all,
    We have defined user parameter EFB in OMET to ensure users have reference documents when creating a PO. This EFB parameter is then added to the user profile via SU3's parameter tab.
    However, all users have access to SU3 to define their own set of parameters. With that, we run into the risk of users removing the assigned EFB parameter themselves, thus allowing creation of PO without reference.
    Is there anyway that we can restrict users from removing this parameter or are there any alternatives?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Sorry, but there´s no option to prevent the change if the user parameters.
    I could find the answer from a developer:
    "the maintenance of PIDs is designed without any authorization check. The background is that every user should have the possibility to fit his/her own PIDs for daily work.".

  • Delivery completion indicator on the Delivery tab

    Gurus,
    The delivery completion indicator doesen't show on the PO even though i have maintained the field selection as optional in the field selection for screenlayout at document level. i have maintained it for NBF ME21N and PT0F. Please let me know how can i get that field displayed on my PO.
    Thanks in advance,
    MV

    First make sure that the NBF is assigned to your document type or somthing else
    Go to
    SPRO-MM-Purchasing- Authorization management-Define Function Authorizations for Buyers
    click on 01 and/or 02
    here check the field sel - has some value
    If you find some value here then go to SU3 transaction and click onthe Parameter tab
    and look for EFB parameter id.
    if this is set that menas for your user id that's the field selection is active
    so make the changes for that field selection in SPRO
    hope this will resolve your  issue.

  • Control over delivery in service master

    Hi,
    we have purchasing value key which is assigned in material master.the value set in this key help to control the over delivery in the PO. is it possible to restrict unlimited receipt for service PO.
    Regards,
    Anjali

    Hi Anjali Kumari ;
    I think that you do not want to maintain in service master data. Also , you can procure with or without service master, it is possible.
    I recommend ;
    1- Create a screen layout - required fields : delivery tolerances - tcode OMF4
    2- Maintain EFB parameter , add this layout Z01 type. Assign it users.
    3- After that this users create PO when they have to fill this area in po.

  • PR mandatory for PO creation

    Hi
    Can any one tell me
    To create a PO , PR is mandatory and also It should not Accepted manual creation of PO

    Hi,
    I am not sure if I understood your question.
    If you are asking how you can control if a user can only create a PO if they are converting it from a requisition and at the same time allow other users to create POs without a requisition.
    This is controlled by the EFB parameter.
    Go to SPRO - MM > Purchasing > Authorisation management > Define Function Authorisations for buyers.
    You will see all of the various flags available. Select one of the entries and add it as a parameter ID to the users you want to control (or create a new entry and add that if you can't find one with the correct flags).
    This should work for you

  • Diference between Price Purchase Order and Order Request

    We are Working with ME51N  to Create purchase requisition , for example for items as "Cost freight", in USS Currency , the value it 's for example USS 1200
    We Create Purchase Order with ME21N in USS too, and we are refering the Number of Requisition and position from (Orders Request), so the record is loaded and the price that shows us is 1227,81.. we can´t understand why its the cause of this difference, our Country Currency is ARS, but the operation it´s in USS
    I hope your recomendation, about the mains records to review in SAP to solve this problem
    Thaks for help us
    Regars

    The Solution Was create the EFB parameter to user assing with the document type of Purchase Requisition
    and Then in my case , assing proposed value to field BPUEB 'Net Price'
    So the Purchase order take the line value from Purchase Requisition.

  • Purchase Order Message!

    Brother!
    I'm creating the purchase order by transaction ME21n. As I entered "Account Assignment Category" (A , K or any).
    system give me the following erroe message.
    "You have no authorization to create without reference to another document
    Message no. MEPO063"
    I'm unable to save the PO because of above erroe.

    Hi,
    This is caused by your EFB parameter.
    Go to your user settings (System > user profile > own data > parameters tab)
    The EFB paramneter controls this.
    Either delete this entry or change this entry to another that will let you raise the PO.
    BUT !!!!
    This is an important authorisation setting and so do not try this in your "live" system because these parameters are meant to control what users can do and only your authorisation team should be changing these parameters.

  • PO  with reference to Purchase requisition

    Hi Friends
    Good Morning, could you please help me out on one issue.My Client requirement is that Purchase order should be created only with reference to Purchase requisition.How can this be done please help ASAP.
    Regards
    VS

    Hi
    Do u mean to say PR mandatory for Po creation then do as follows
    SPRO --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Authorization Management --> Define Function Authorizations for Buyers
    Also make sure that
    In OMET in <b>details</b> of function Authorization>Possible ref. objects>Tick only <b>Ref. to purchase requisition</b> and not anything else
    Create Function Authorization for buyers as "PO only with PR" ,
    assign this to Buyer authorization profile in SU01
    for assignment of  Function Authorisation do as follow
    Go to SU01>enter user ID> Go to Parameters-->assign that parameter value against EFB parameter( If EFB parameter ID is not there Add it and assign parameter value i.e.Function Authorisation value there e.g..<b>01</b>
    Revert for any clarification

  • Price change in PO

    Hello!
    I have faced following requirement:
    Price should be adapted from condition record for material. Purchasing Price in purchase order can't be changed. To ensure this I have set in condition record field Manual Entries -D - Not possible to process manually. But still i can change price in PO item. When I make settings in screen layout for PO (making price field "Display"), the field is not available for changes, but in this case it is not possible to set/change price for all PO types, but in case of return PO I need to have possibility set particular price from particular batch, not taking price from condition record.
    Is there a way to set screen layout control on PO document type level?
    Is there other way to forbid price change in PO without closing field on screen layout level?
    Thanx in advance!
    Brucke

    You can set up separate field selections for different purchasing documents depending
    on the document type and document category. For this purpose, you assign a field
    selection key to the document type for which the field attributes are defined.
    Other options are using
    Field selection key based on Item category.
    In addition, you can also control the field selection depending on the user parameter
    EFB (for purchasing function authorization). You can assign a Function Authorization
    (EFB) field selection key to the different keys for this parameter. This field selection
    key is for controlling the authorization for the price display or entry in the purchasing
    documents (purchase orders, outline agreements). If the user parameter EFB (function authorization in purchasing) has been assigned to a user, this field selection key is also
    used. If the authorization for the price display is removed using the EFB parameter
    without an additional field selection key having been defined, then the field selection
    key $$$$ is used. In addition, this user parameter can be used to assign an additional
    field selection key especially for the field selection of the single-screen transactions
    for maintaining the purchase requisitions.
    Hope it helps.
    Best Regards

    Hi,
    No need to apologise, that is why we are here, you are certainly NOT asking for too much. You are being very helpfula and providing more detail as we need it.
    We enjoy helping people to get the most out of SAP and so your question is a good one.
    One thing that you can do in an SAP purchase order is to move the columns around. So firstly get the user to check to see if the required columns are there but perhaps they ahve to scroll to the right to see them.
    Each user can save there own format for these columns and so this user may have saved different settings to yours.
    So let me know if they have found the columns futher to the rioght of the screen and we can help you to get them to the left so that they are visible straight away (basically you click once on the column header and then click and hold the button down, you can then drag the columns left and right and let go when they are where you want them. The the user clicks on the icon in the right hand corner of the item "window" (it looks a bit like a spreadsheet) and then saves this as their default.
    I would suggest that you play with this a bit first, it does take practice to get it right.
    (also try clicking on the dividing line between the Qty and the next field in case the user has reduced the column width to zero (in the same way that you would do this in excel)
    If this is not the problem then let us know and we can try other options.
    It could be that the user has an EFB parameter in their userid that is preventing the display of pricing info.
    Thanks for your thanks by the way, they are a strong motivation.
