Field Selection Key in Purchase order

Hi Friends
We have defined two different ZFK1, ZFK2 Custom Field selection keys for payterms & GR/IR Indicators in Purchase order .
ZFK1 is used across all(most of the ) company codes and document types as defined in config .
But our requiremnt is that ZFK1 must be replaced with ZFK2 for certain compnay code and document types combination dynamically in ABAP without chnaging the config in SPRO.
Please help me out if any body knows how this can be achieved and what are the user-exits should be used .
Thanks in advance ,
Siva.

Field Selection Keys related to Purchase Order

Hi,
I have a query regarding Field Selection Key.
When we go to Field Selection Screen connected to Purchase Order, we can find so many Field Selection Keys viz., $$$$, $$$2, AKTH, ME21N, etc.
How to judge which is to be used when?
I like to know how these Field Selection Keys are linked to Purchase Order Screen in the background.
Please guide me in this regard by giving proper suggestions in this regard.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Karthik,
Thanks for your valuable information.
I like to know few more things.
1) Is it possible to create our own Field Selection Key?
2) If you observe the list of Field Selection Keys related to Purchase Order Screen, you can see that there are Field Selection Keys by name ME21N, ME21, AKTH, etc.
If the Field Selection Keys are predefined by SAP, it is OK. But, if there is an option to create our own Field Selection Key, then what is the procedure to do the same?
It seems that ME21N, ME21, and AKTH are used for Create Purchase Order Screen.
There are also keys ME22N and ME23N used for Change Purchase Order Screen and Display Order Screen.
I am little bit confused about this.
We are linking the Field Selection Keys to the Document Types.
But, I think it is only for create Purchase Order Screen. Please correct, if I am wrong.
Also, I like to know how we are linking the Field Selection Keys related to Change Purchase Order Screen and Display Purchase Order Screen?
Please clarify all my doubts by giving proper suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

FIELD SELECTION KEY

Hi,
       I have a query regarding Field Selection Key.
I want to know the difference between Field Selection Keys AKTH, ME21, and ME21N.
I have observed during Testing that, AKTH and ME21N are almost the same.
But, I like to know the difference.
Which is to be used when?
Please give suitable suggestions in this regard.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Go through following information.
Field selection key: -
You should not delete the field selection keys listed below, which the dialog program uses for control purposes, otherwise the dialog may terminate during processing:
1. Field selection key: transaction
The field selection key that corresponds to the transaction code: for example, field selection key ME22 for the transaction "Change Purchase Order". For the Enjoy Purchase Order transactions (creating, changing, displaying), there is only field selection key ME21N.
2. Field selection key: activity type
Is set from the activity type as follows:
AKTH    In creation mode
AKTV    In change mode
AKTA    In display mode
AKTE    With PO extension
You should note that you can also add items in change mode (for example, transaction ME22). Field selection key AKTH would be used for this item.
3. Field selection key: purchasing document type
The field selection key that you have assigned to the document type for the purchasing document. For example, field selection key UBF is assigned to document type UB, which is used for stock transfer orders (within a company code). In this key, the fields Price and Price unit are suppressed.
4. Field selection key: item category/document category
This is determined from the item and document categories as follows: The first two characters consist of the letters 'PT', the third character of the item category (internal representation), and the fourth of the document category:
A   for RFQs,
B   for purchase requisitions
F   for purchase orders
K   for contracts
L   for scheduling agreements
Accordingly, field selection key PT3F would be used for a subcontracting item in a purchase order.
Field selection key: function authorization/release status
Purchasing documents: Used for authorization control. If the user parameter EFB (function authorizations in Purchasing) has been assigned and a field selection key has been assigned to the relevant value, this field selection key is used. Otherwise, field selection key $$$$ is used if the user has insufficient authorization to display prices.
Purchase requisitions: If the purchase requisition is subject to a release strategy and a field selection key has been assigned to the current release indicator, this field selection key is used.
Field selection key: subitem/creation indicator
Purchasing documents: Is only used in the case of subitems. The field selection key is put together in the same way as for the item categories (field selection key 4), with the string 'UP', the subitem category, and the document type.
Purchase requisitions: the field selection key that is derived from the creation indicator in the purchase requisition, that is, ESTV, ESTF, or ESTD, is used in the case of purchase requisitions generated from within Sales and Distribution, from a production order, or through direct procurement.
5. Field selection key: purchase requisition
In addition to the available field selection keys, you can define a field selection key at function authorization level to influence the input characteristics of fields in the Enjoy Purchase Requisition.
You can use this field selection key to set up groups of users that have certain restrictions when editing purchase requisitions.
SAP Recommendation: -
SAP recommends that you accept the settings defined in the standard system. In this case, no action is required on your part.

Use of field selection Key.

Hello
I am implementing the release strategy for the Purchase requisition. can anyone please tell me what is the significance of "Field selection key" and "Value change" under the release indicator.
Regards

Dear,
In the standard system, SAP will not allow changes to the quantity, unit of measure, or price when an approver is executing the release
transaction. If you require that other fields, such as delivery date, plant, etc., not be modified via the release transaction, this field selection key is useful.
Field selection key: If you want to allow certain fields to be changed during or after a release, you can modify the Field Selection Key. To modify the Field Selection Key, follow the menu path in the IMG: Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Requisition >
Define Screen Layout at Document level. Once you have created a custom field selection key, you should create a custom release indicator by maintaining a new entry in the u201CCreate Release Indicatorsu201D screen.
It is also possible to configure the release to not be restarted if the amounts have only changed a specified percentage. To do this, enter u201C4 - Changeable, new release in case of new strategy or valueu201D and a percentage in the u201CValue chgsu201D field.

Field selection key directs which values can be changed after the relevant release indicators have been set
Eg suppose you want to supress the field for PR after first release indicator has been set you have to assign the relevant field selection key to Release indicator
you can assign the same to the release indicators in
spro-mm-Purchasing -PR-Procedure with classification-set up Procedure with classification-release indicators
you can set the field selection key in
spro-mm-purchasing -PR- define screen layout at document level

Free PO indicator in field selection key/group

Hi all,
I would like to make Free PO indicator as mandatory field in PO thru specific document type field selection reference key. When I search for the field, it is not available for existing field selection key (Field selection group).
How can I add the Free PO indicator into this field selection key/group or Does it represented in different name.
Kindly clarify.
With regards
Suddy

Hi,
"Free Indicator" doesn't exist in field selection. If you wanto to have Free Indicator ON for a specific PO Document Type then you need to do ABAP Development for this.
Use BAdi --> ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST
Interface --> PROCESS_ITEM (Processing of Item Data)
Below is the Sample Code for your reference;
If w_bsart EQ 'ZPOD'.
wa_item3-repos = ' '.
ELSE.
ENDIF.

Sort Key 0014 (Purchase Order) not updated in Assignment Field

Hi SDN experts,
I assigned Sory Key 0014 to one of my vendors, after which I tried to post a PO, GR and eventually the IR.
However, upon checking the FBL1N report, system does not populate it with the Purchase Order Number.
Any step I missed out?
Also, the Purchasing Document number is empty. Shouldn't this be populated by the invoice document? (MIRO)
Regards

Hi
In FBL1N, PO will not be displayed in the Assignment field just by giving Sort Key as Assignment Field. You need to implement BTE 1650 in FIBF and write your code to populate it. The logic why sort key of PO will not populate it , because from Version 4 onwards, R/3 aqllows, single Invoice Verification against Multiple PO. Even in the BTE Implementation, you will be able to populate only the First PO Line Item No only, if you do a single invoice verification against multiple PO of the Vendor.

PURCHASING GROUP FIELD IN THE CREATE PURCHASE ORDER SCREEN

Hi Guys,
I am facing a special kind of problem while creating a Purchase Order.
Once I type the T-Code ME21N and press the Enter Key, the Screen for creating the Purchase Order opens. But, the thing is that, the Purchasing Group Field is not displayed under the Org. Data Tab at the Header Level of the Purchase Order Screen ME21N. Only, Purchasing Organization and Company Code are displayed.
But, when you try with ME22N and ME23N, this problem is not there.
I think, this problem has started from yesterday afternoon.
I checked some of the Settings. But, I could not make out the actual problem.
This problem I am facing in IDES Server.
But, it is fine with the Clients' Servers.
Please guide me in resolving this issue.
Waiting for the fast and positive response.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
Follow the steps
1. Go to "Personal Setting" Tab in PO
2. Select "Default Values" menu
3. In the PO Header section Select the Default Purchasing Group e.g. 000 initial
Remember if the Purchasing group field is blank here then the Purchasing Group field will not appear in me21n transaction instead it will appear after you put relevant details like Material number and Plant. The purchasing group field is defaulted from Purchase Info record in such case. But you can always change it

Fields for Payment against Purchase Order

Hi Everyone,
Kindly guide me what are fields where the payment amount against any purchase order gets stored.
Please also guide me about the transaction code information where we can see the Payment against any Purchase Order (Functional Screen).
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I'm not sure whether the "payment fields" you mentioned are payment key/Discount Days/Cash Discount Percentage 1? If yes, you can check them in table EKKO.
There's no payment amount in purchase order, you will need to check payment amount in
corresponding invoice documents.
Thanks and regards,
Polly

PTP - Change to stock type field status configuration in Purchase Order

When creating or changing a PO for direct material - or even during goods receipt, the stock type field which by default is "X - Quality Inspection" can be changed to "Unrestricted Use" by the purchasing personnel. This is not in line with QA requirements where the change from QI to Unrestricted use can only be done by QA personnel.
Need to configure the system not to allow purchasing personnel to change the status.
Please tell me where i need to configure the above requirement.
Regards
Sreekanth

HI,
You will need to change screen layout at document level in ME21N and ME22N. Follow below steps
SPRO -> Mateial Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Define Screen Layout at Document levle -> ME21N -> Look for Quality Inspection (I believe this is the field, I did not test it) and make it Display only. By default it comes as Optional entry.

Additional field(company code) in purchase order screen layout

Hi All experts,
I have a requirement to set the company code in Purchase order as display field during PO creation or change.
I have checked in IMG under screen layout for purchase order but there is no company code field available.
How can I add the additional field into the screen layout.
Any inout will be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Lost.

Hi Chee Wan Ng,
<b>Where</b> exactly you want to set the Company Code field in the Purchase order? Actually this field is already available under <b>Org.data</b> tab in the Purchase Order Creation transaction (ME21N), so you may not require to set the Company Code again.
Which version of SAP R/3 you are using?
Hope this helps you, if not, then give us more details to help you better.
Good luck.
