Error in Creating Purchase Order (ME21N)

Dear Experts,
A pleasant day to all of you!
I would like to ask help because when I try to save Purchase Order, error messages "There is an error in the specifications for area 04 in co. code XXXX".
Message no. AC391
Diagnosis
You specified for depreciation area 04 that asset values are to be automatically posted online, and that this area is to take over book values from another area. This specification is not correct. An area that allows for online automatic posting cannot take over values from another area.
Procedure
Correct the specifications for area 04.
We really need to resolve this issue as soon as possible as it blocking activities on three company codes.
It would be a great for me if you could help undertand the cause of the error.
Points will be rewarded. Thank you!

Hello,
This problem is more of a customizing problem but you could try the
following:
The message AC359 states in its help text, that you are using currency
types, which indicates the usage of parallel currency. This is only
possible by transferring a given value from area 01 into the other area.
It is not possible to change the value by another valuation.
As your Company Code manages parallel currencies in Asset Accounting,
you must define exactly one dependent area for each area that is
supposed to post automatically online to reconciliation accounts.
You have to define this area to take over identical values and
parameters, and use the currency type xxx, and currency xxx.
The xxx denotes your parameters. In addition please look at your
Company Code in FI Customizing(TA OB22). In Asset Management
you have to define a depreciation area for every Parallel currency you
use in FI. This depreciation area(s) must be defined as areas for
Parallel curriencies(Asset Balance Online as Parallel currency)
The currency of this depreciation area must be the same as the
Parallel currency in the FI.
Also check whether the IMG follow menu path is activated:
Financial Accounting->Asset Accounting->Valuation->Depreciation Areas->
Definition>. Under the Takeover Rules->Takeover From: W/out ability to
change the box under "Depreciation Rules" is activated.
Hope this will help you.

Hi,
Go to SPRO-Materials Management-Purchasing-Purchase Order-Define Document Types..
Select your doc type which you are selcting at the time of PO creation..
Say for e.g. NB.
Now you have to maintain " Item Number Interval" as 10 in front of your doc type.
This option is just after "Document Type Description".
Now save and check.

Error when creating purchase order

Hello all,
when we create a purchase order in SAP and hit the SAVE button to create it, an error screen comes up and says:
Syntax error in program "SAPLECP_PDF"
What happened?
The following syntax error occurred in the program SAPLECP_PDF:
"The TYPE-POOL "ALVT" is unknown"
Error in ABAP applicatio program.
The current ABAP program "SAPLXM06" had to be terminated because one of the statements could not be excuted.
What can I do to fix that?
Thanks
Anne

SAPLECP_PDF is pretty small (open it in SE38)
3 statements are includes for user-defined files....
Of course it interacts with the form and customizing settings and may retrieve faulty entries from there that cause finally a syntax error. But I have not seen any SAP program that got shipped with a syntax error.
sorry had overlooked this hint TYPE-POOL "ALVT" .
Now i guess that the transport from your developement system to system you get teh error was not complete.

Dear Raghu,
Thanks for your help.
Please find the below detailed error:
"There is an error in the specifications for area 04 in co. code RO10"
Message no. AC391
Diagnosis
You specified for depreciation area 04 that asset values are to be automatically posted online, and that this area is to take over book values from another area. This specification is not correct. An area that allows for online automatic posting cannot take over values from another area.
Procedure
Correct the specifications for area 04.
I have searched an OSS message for this and found note 14990 but unfortunately SAP advised me that the said note is related to our release.

HI,
check in T-code OBBS currency type "M" the exchange relation EUR/INR and the column at the right side "Alt. ERT" (means alternative exchange rate).

Update was terminated while creating purchase order from ME21N

Hi Experts,
We are getting this dump when try to create purchase order from ME21N;
Our system ECC 6.0 and IS-AFS (Apparel & Footwear Solution) V600 component has installed,
How can we prevent this error,
Regards
Here is the dump and sm21 log,
Runtime Errors         LOAD_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND
Exception              CX_SY_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND
Date and Time          10.10.2008 10:22:03
Short text
     Program "RMCMS431 " not found.
What happened?
     There are several possibilities:
     Error in the ABAP Application Program
     The current ABAP program "SAPLMCS4" had to be terminated because it has
     come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
     or
     Error in the SAP kernel.
     The current ABAP "SAPLMCS4" program had to be terminated because the
     ABAP processor detected an internal system error.
What can you do?
     Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
     To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
     administrator.
    Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
    at and manage termination messages, and you can also
    keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND', was not
     caught in
    procedure "TMC2F_FROUT_CALL" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    On account of a branch in the program
    (CALL FUNCTION/DIALOG, external PERFORM, SUBMIT)
    or a transaction call, another ABAP/4 program
    is to be loaded, namely "RMCMS431 ".
    However, program "RMCMS431 " does not exist in the library.
    Possible reasons:
    a) Wrong program name specified in an external PERFORM or
       SUBMIT or, when defining a new transaction, a new
       dialog module or a new function module.
    b) Transport error
How to correct the error
    Check the last transports to the R/3 System.
    Are changes currently being made to the program "SAPLMCS4"?
    Has the correct program been entered in table TSTC for Transaction "ME21N "?
    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
    find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:
    "LOAD_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND" "CX_SY_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND"
    "SAPLMCS4" or "LMCS4F10"
    "TMC2F_FROUT_CALL"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
    notification to SAP, include the following information:
    1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
       To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
    (Unconverted)".
    2. Corresponding system log
       Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
       Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
    after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
    (Unconverted)".
    3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
    program: The source code of the program
       In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
    Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
    4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
    actions and input led to the error.
    The exception must either be prevented, caught within proedure
    "TMC2F_FROUT_CALL" "(FORM)", or its possible occurrence must be declared in the
    RAISING clause of the procedure.
    To prevent the exception, note the following:

ME21N Create Purchase Order with reference to previous Purchase Order

Hello Expert,
Previously have been using Purchase Info Records for reference when creating Purchase Orders using ME21N. We then have deleted the Pricing Condition in the Purchase Info Record using ME12. Now when we are trying to create a new Purchase Order with the same values (Vendor, Material, Plant and Storage Location), the transaction code ME21N automatically fetches the previous values of the Pricing Condition as if it was cached. I remember of studying this in the MM academy but I am not sure how to disable it.
This error only happens when we are creating the first Purchase Order after the deletion, for the second Purchase Order, error will be prompted to the user saying that the Pricing Condition could not be found.
I would like to ask where in configuration can I delete this cache behaviour or is that any work around for this.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Antony,
I found the "Update Prices" function in the Conditions Tab of the Item Details helps to refresh the data and fetch the new information from the Purchase Info Record. I would like to ask is there anyway to provoke this function automatically everytime when a user runs the transaction ME21N.
Thanks in advance again.

Any ideas???

Deleated Valuation Type --Need Error Message while creating Purchase Order

Hi,
In our scenario , i need a message should flash , if enduser by mistake select the deleated valuation type while creating Purchase Order.
In current configuration , it's not there.
Await your expert opinion.
Regards
Shyam Kogta

I investigated this recently in our company and gave this answer:
A deletion flag does not restrict anything. It is just an indicator to tell SAP that you want this record to be deleted with the next archiving run.
The archiving run then checks if a deletion is possible or not.
So you can set such deletion flags long time in advance, even at a moment where you still have inventory.
To block materials from beeing used in business transactions, usually the material and sales status are used. But these statuses can only be set at overall, plant and sales organisation level.
In some transactions SAP issues warning messages if a material has a deletion flag. This messages could be customized to be an error and prevent any business. However, this type of restriction is not designed for our machine, as we use the material and sales status.
Anyhow, there is no message for valuation types that have a deletion flag in procurement area.
There is one for goods receipts (but only for a certain industry solution that is not used by us)
There is one for deliveries ( VL 211 ).
The valuation types are defaulted from customizing to the transaction e.g. purchase order. Or from info record to the PO. So a standard purchase order gets valuation type ABC , while an internal order (production) gets the DEF. Usually there should not be a need to change this valuation type manually.
So the only solution is to archive the material master at valuation type level.
But I guess, you already have POs with that wrong valuation type, which means you have to archive the POs first. It you have already batches with wrong valuation type, then thy have to be archived as well before a material can be archived.
And finally if you had stock in current year, then you can archive your material in year after next year, as SAP archives only materials that have no stock in current and previous year.
