Flag purchase requisition as closed automatically

Hi,
I'd like to flag a purchase requisition as closed automatically when it is created with reference of a purchase requisition. I'd like to know if there's any customizing point in which I can customize this action.
Thanks in advance,
Gerard

If you are using ME59N transaction to create the PO then you can automatically set the flag reqs closed.
On ME59N screen you will see the field called set reqs to closed.............here you can select your indicator and system will close the reqs which all are converted on POs

Set up purchase requistions "Closed" automatically after creation of PO

We have following requirement
Purchase requistions should be "Closed" automatically after creation of Purchase order. Purchase orders are created manually.
Is there any settings or config to achieve this?
Thanks in advance

Hello
The closed indicator (EBAN-EBAKZ) could only be set manually within the transaction ME52N or when converting the purchase requisition into a PO. via transaction ME21 or ME21N.
In the case you use transaction ME21 or ME21N to create the PO with reference to purchase requisition the 'closed' flag has to be set manually. In ME21 before you adopt the item, in ME21N the indicator to close the PReq in ME21N is in the delivery schedule tab of the item details at the far right end of the window.
In the change requisition transaction ME52N, set the close indicator.
In ME57, while creating a PO with reference to a requisition, set the close indicator on the item selection screen (SAPMM06E, 0125).
You are able to create multiple PO's from the same requisition; however, once the total quantity of the PReq has been assigned to PO's, your quantity of the PReq will be 0.
In other words, when you go to ME21N or ME21 and you create with reference to a previously fully assigned requisition, you will be prompted to make an entry in the quantity field, as there is nothing left on the requisition to pull from. This should be an alert to the user that there are no selectable quantities available for the item. This prevents double ordering.
If you want to prevent the requisition to be used again, you should set the closed indicator for the item in the requisition. The closed indicator is never set automatically. When creating a purchase order in reference to this requisition, you should select the 'open only' flag. If the closed indicator has been set for the requisition, you will receive a message that no data satisfying selection criteria exist
Thanks

Automatic purchase requisition created from routing needs to be have material no. information in it.

Hello Experts,
There are some operations in my routing where external service , from an outside vendor shall be required.
We are doing this by using a particular control key PP02, for this routing, so that purchase requisition is created automatically, when the production order is created.
Through customization, I have also been able to make the setting so that instead of single, collective requisition gets created for the entire order.The requisition that is getting created is a service requisition and can be later converted to a Purchase order.
Requirement :- I need to enter material information in this requisition automatically. By material, I mean the material no. and preferably qty of the material, which will have to be sent out to the external vendor for his services.
How can I achieve this, in SAP?
Regards
P.R

Hello Caetano,
Right now we are not considering best practices , so not considering BADI implementation as such.
So far I have done the following:
I created a subcontracting purchasing info record for the material and a vendor.
Then, I have created a routing for the material and the operation which expects to go for external processing, I have used control key YBP2 (tried with PP02) in it.
I have assigned the subcontracting PIR under the external processing section of this operation in the routing.
My Production version combines the BOM and routing in the material master.
Now ,,when I try to create the production order, I get the following errors in succession:
Control key YBP2: Maintain external processing data
Message no. CO558
Diagnosis
The control key specifies that the operation is processed externally. However, not all data relevant to external processing has been maintained.
respond by entering the material group where the cursor is.
Then I get the following error.
Material class differs from material class from info record
Message no. 06354
Diagnosis
The material class or material group of the info record differs from that of the item.
I checked in the material master and the material group there is same as the material group in the info record . Field name is MATKL.
What material class is it talking about?
I cannot get past this error and therefore cannot complete the order creation.

Automatic Purchase Requisition using Reorder Point without MRP Run

Dear Freinds,
My client wants Purchase Requisition should be automatically created as soon as the stock falls below reorder level without MRP run.
Is this possible? if possible then what are the settings required.
Thanks
Prashant Atri

Dear,
It is not possible in standard SAP.
What is the problem to take MRP run?
You can take the MRP run in background through MDBT so system will create automatic Purchase Requisition using Reorder Point.
Hope clear to you.

Deleting or Closing Purchase Requisitions

Dear All,
I need to know as to how we could delete or close purchase requisitions.
Ideally we use ME52 recording and delete bulk purchase requisitions, is there any other way we could do it via standard SAP.
SAP has recommended to use ME57, i tried but i am not sure as to how to delete using transaction ME57.
Please advice how it could be done
In the meantime, what is the difference between deleting a purchase requisition and closing a purchase requisition.And if i need to close a purchase requisition how can i do the same. In standard ME52 there are no fields to activiate the close, but i noticed in a BAPI there is a way of closing the open purchase requisitions.
Shall await eapert advice
Thanks & Regards

Hi All,
I have the same requirement to delete MRP generated PRs. But the issue is our MRP transfers to SRM sourcing was not functioning until recently. Only the PRs in the EPRTRANS table were transferred to SRM. But the Buyer deleted the PRs that came to Sourcing(since they were old ones). So what happens to the PRs that are still open in ECC that were created by MRP ? How do I get rid of them.
Please advise.
Thank you

Archiving purchase requisition

Hello Expert,
We are into support project. We have a requirement for compltely deleting the purchase requistion in system. The purchase requisition is created automatically thru MRP run. Hence we are not able to set mark for deletion for the line items in ME52N. Now we want to completly delete the PR from system, we tried using SARA to delete it.
Since PR is not marked for deletion, system is not creating any file to delete the PR in SARA.
Could you please guide me how to completly delete the PR from the system?
Thanks in advance for your reply..
With Regards
Bala

you can only archive closed business cases. a requisition is considered as closed if the requested quantity is completly ordered, no matter if the deletion indicator is there or not.
it has nothing to do with MRP run if you can set a deletion indicator manually or not.
It is has to do with the object to which the PR belongs.
e.g. if it is a PR from a work order, then you have to close the PR in the workorder itself.

Purchase Requisition for Third party direct

Hi Experts,
When I am creating a third party direct sales order, a purchase requisition will be automatically triggered from it.
I can see the purchase requisition number in the item details (schedule lines) of sales order.
Please tell me how can I change the source of supply. For me it is defualt as purchase info record but I want to use Contracts instaed of infor records.
Can anybody tell Is there any customizing settings for it ?
Thanks.
Nishant.

You shouldn't have to do any config settings. This is standard. So create your contract and release it. In the source list add the vendor and enter the contract number in the agreement field and subject it to MRP as well as fixing the vendor and blocking the other vendor in the source list. Re run MRP and the purchase reqs will reference the contracts. Make sure the validity date of both the contract the the line item in the source list are long enough to capture all reqs.

Link tables of Sales Order and Purchase Requisition

Hi,
thru which tables we can get the data of purchase requistion for a sales order.
regards,
balu

Dear Balu,
the fields VBEP-BANFN and VBEP-BNFPO are filled in the third-party process only. It means that there is 1:1 connection between the schedule line of the sales order and the purchase requisition. In the third-party process during saving the sales order the purchase requisition is created automatically and is linked to the order.
If the fields are empty, it means, you have no third-party process and no 1:1 connection between the sales order and the purchase requisition. Probably the sales order created normal requirements, which generate purchase requisition(s) after MRP run. In this case you cannot see the purchase requisition from the sales order as there is no 1:1 connection. You have no chance to get the data from sales order to the purchase requisition.
The only possibility which you (may be, it depends on the process) have, is to find sales order numbers from the purchase requisition: so to develop the process backwards. These data are stored in the database table EBKN: Purchase Requisition Account Assignment.
Please use the following fields:
EBKN-BANFN - Purchase requisition number (key field)
EBKN-BNFPO - Item number of purchase requisition (key field)
EBKN-LOEKZ - Deletion indicator in purchasing document (key field, can be helpful)
The corresponding sales orders are stored in:
EBKN-VBELN - Sales Document Number
EBKN-VBELP - Sales Document Item
EBKN-VETEN - Schedule line number
I hope, this information will help you further and will solve your problem.

Purchase Requisition with mat-nr and without mat-nr

Hi,
if I create a Purchase Requisition with a material number it will be transfered into the EPRTRANS,
but if I create a Purchase Requisition without a materialnumber (only with account assignment)
then it will be not transfered into EPRTRANS .
Do you have an idea why this strange behaivour happens.
Maybe there must be made some changes in Function Module BBP_EPRTRANS_MAINTAIN ?
Regards
ilhan

in order to perform a Purchase Requisition-Upload from R/3 Backend system into another system there
are several steps necessary.
When I am creating a Purchase Requisition at the Backend regarding a valid material-number,
the Purchase Requisition will be automatically inserted into the table EPRTRANS.
But not in case of if you create a Purchase Requisition without a Material-Numnber.
e.g. Purchase Requisition with free text and account assignment.
Function Module BBP_EPRTRANS_MAINTAIN is reposible for transfering of Purchase Requisition
into table EPRTRANS.
I need these PR in the EPRTRANS in order to perform the report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER finally.
It trnasfers all Purchase Requisition from EPRTTANS to the external system.
I hope it clarifys some of the confusion .

Change Item Description in Purchase Requisition

Hi,
Purchase requisition is created automatically from the maintenance order in IW31.
Here the requirement is to change the item description (Short Text) in the purchase requisition.
In ME52N when I tried to manually change, the item text is greyed out.If at all we have to change the item description what is the procedure.
Please suggest.
Regards
Kishore

Hi,
You cant change this Text in ME52N, for this you need to change the description of operation in IW32. PR take default text form IW32 component tab page so you can change this text same will reflected to you PR.

Subcontract Production order generates wrong Purchase requisition

Hi,
My users are creating subcon Production Orders with the CO01 t-code, and they reported to me that the Purchase requisition generated by the production order is of a different number range, thus they are unable to convert these PR into Purchase orders.
My company uses different document types and different number ranges for each of their different subsidiaries.
May i know where can i go to assign or change the Production order to pick the correct PR document type and number range?
Thank you.

Hi all,
Apparently I'm unable to amend the setting at OPJP because the change will affect the Production Order and Purchase requisition from another plant.
Is there a manual method for production order to generate purchase requisition instead of automatic generation?
Perhaps by the manual way, the users are able to choose which PR document type to generate from the production order?
Please advise.
Thank you very much.

Purchase requisition without sales order

Hi experts,
I'm facing with a very strange problem. In our system, purchase requisition are created automatically when sales order are created. Problem is that some purchase requisition does not contain linkage to sales order (does not have any linkage in account assignment). From this strange behaviour, when i want to create purchase order (ME58), sap gives me error: Enter sales order.
Does anyone know where is the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Dear,
Please check following config,
Step 1)
If you are always followwing a third party process for a material then you have to create the material using item category group BANS in Material Master.
The procument type should be marked as External procurement (F) in MRP 2 view of the material master record. if you are not always allowing third party order processing then u can create a material master record with item category group as NORM and the procurement type should be marked as ( X) meaning both types of procurment ( in house manufacturing and external procurement).
step 2)
the item category in the order should be manually changed as TAS.
For that you need to confugure the item category determination
Ord type + item cat grp + usge + Hiv level = Item cat + Manual item cat
OR + NORM + + = TAN . + TAS
OR + BANS + + = TAS
Step 3)
make sure that during the item category configuration for TAS you need to mark relevnat for billing indicator as F
step 4)
The schedule line cateogry for this type should be CS.
make sure that you mark subsequent type as NB - purchase requisition in this schedule line category as this will trigger the purchase requision order immediately after the creation of the sales order and the PO to vendor is created against this purchase requiesion.
