Hi,
In case of Item Category B, there is not GR in this case. And in case of Item Category D, you have to create Service Entry Sheet (it is must), which creates a GR document in the background.
Refer Following links for the above;

Order type, Invoice type and Item categories for Nota Fiscal Brazil

Hi eveyone,
we have a company in Brazil implemented in SAP using a different SD Order type, Invoice Type and Item categories
as our mother company in Switzerland. Reason of that is because of the nota fiscal customization for Brazilian legal requirements.
We startet with a Project worldwide to rollout a global template within sales and distribution and are facing now exactly
the problem with those different order type, item categories and Invoice type.
Our local SAP partner in Brazil told as based on best practise we should have different types.
I checked the customization and it seems I can't use e.g.: the same Order type for Brazil and Switzerland because
the activation flag for nota fiscal is linked to the order type and no sales organization can be setted to slplitt the different processes.
Someone knows if there are some possibilities (maybe trough user exits or badi's) to use globally the same dovument types, item categoreis... globally?
Thanks in advance
Gaspare Guttadauro

Hi Gaspare Guttadauro,
I would strongly recommend to use the different document types and item categories as suggested by SAP. Since Brazil do have one of the complex taxation process in place hence to determine correct pricing the different document type will be required. Also functionalities like CFOP determination and nota fiscal relevance can be maintained.
Please feel free to revert the forum in case of any doubts.

What is Framework order and blanket PO

dear gurus,
kindly focus on what is Framework order and blanket PO ?
regards,
snb

Hi SNB,
Framework order (FO) is a document type which is provided by the standerd SAP.
It can be used for the consumable material ( Which is having low value & where making GR is not of worth like C category item.) & called as blanket PO. Here we need to mntion the validity period & target value or quantity as a restriction as well as need to mention item category as a "b".
Also it can be used for the procurement of extarnal services (Item category "D" ). Here we need to do the entry of services which have been performed & need to accept the same whereas in blanket PO, GR is not required.
At the end i would tel u that Framework order is the document type which can be used as blanket Po & procurement of services.
Reward if useful.

Split Charging for PO-Framework Order with Item category B- Blank Item

Hi,
how can i make the system split the qty percentage/charging for Framework Order ,Charge to Project and Item Category of B- Blank item during PO creation/change. This functionality is behaving normal for a standard PO charge to P and item category is standard.
we are using ecc6 and we dont use any material master..
Thanks in advance..
She

Hi,
This can be controlled through account assignment category,
In SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Account Assignment > Maintain Account Assignment Categories > Double click on account asignment category > Fill the field distribution according to your requirement.
During PO creation, in item details, account assignment tab, you can give the split.

Blanket POs as a framework order and contracts

Hello,
In 6.0, could some tell me the difference between using a framework order (in ME21N ) and invoice planning to create a blanket PO the same thing as using a contract...?

Framework order is also known as Blanket PO.....which we use for the procurement of Low value Material with Long term planning....It is used as Mini Contract....
For making Blanket PO....you have to choose Order type: FO in ME21N....with Item category "B"(Limit)
For creating Blanket PO... You need not have to maintain material master.....Maintaining Acc.assignment Category in PO is mandatory....also you have to maintain Validity Period in Blanket PO...
As per SAP Best Practice.....for Blanket PO, GR is not possible.....you can directly post multiple Invoices for One Blanket PO....The validity and total Value of these Invoices for Blanket PO during LIV can be controled by tollerance keys LA and LD.

Order and item status in sales order

We had multiple items in the sales order
for one of the item, the quantity was 5, but user cretaed a delivery of 8. but she only post goods issue for 5.
the delivery and order was open
at this stage the archival of delivery took place.
we changed the status in tables vbuk and vbup to complete.
but in the display of status in sales order, it still shows being processed.
What can we do now to set the order status and item status to COMPLETE.
Thank you for your reply

Hi,
This order status will not be complete unless the delivered quantity is equal to the order quantity. You have 2 options. 1. Change the order quantity to 8 and delliver the rest 3 and the order status will be set to COMPLETE. 2. Otherwise, reverse the PGI in VL09n and delete the delivery and create the delivery again for 5 qty. This will set the order status as COMPLETE.

PO GR Defaults based on Account *** Cat and Item Categories

Hi Guys,
Using the following SPRO path it is possible to set defaults such as if GR is ticked or not, and if it can be changed in the PO based on the account assignment selected in the PO.
MM - Purchasing - Account Assignment - Maintain Account Assignment Categories
Using the following SPRO path it is possible to set similar settings based on the item category selected in the PO;
MM - Purchasing - Account Assignment - Define External Representation of item Categories.
How do these settings interact.
What happens if a combination of Acc Assignment Category and item category have conflicting settings for GR NonVal Firm
Which ones will SAP use

Hi,
   For defaulting the GR and IR indicators based on account assignment category, you may use the configuration in OME9 as shown below:
   The item category configuration is not changeable.
   If item category and account assignment category exists, the item category config has the higher priority, as of my knowledge. You may test the same.

FM to copy order and items

Hello,
I have a requirement where i need to copy one existing order with all the items and create new one, since it would be mass creation i need some FM/class. Could anyone provide me with some sample code or correct approach.
Thanks,
Lisha

Hi Lisha,
You can use crm_order_maintain to create a new order with line items followed by crm_order_save and commit. And to copy the already exiting order with its line items,use crm_order_read.
Make sure for header_guid and for all line item guids, use GUID_CREATE fm to generate new guid ,in case of existing order header guid and line item guids.
You can check by placing a break point in crm_order_maintain and copy any order manually.

How are GL Accounts assigned with item categories in Sales Order

Please advise;
- how and where GL accounts are assigned with item categories appearing in the sales order?
Points confirmed.
regardss

We have number of sales document types and item categories. The sales order numbers are also different for hardware and software categories, so is the sales organization, plant and company code.
Usually, the hardware orders contain line items for software but the item category used is for hardware and therefore, it gets posted to the incorrect (hardware) GL account. Is this happening due to MATERIAL TYPE/CODES.
We are using separate GL accounts for both.
Where and what controls could be developed to prevent this?
Please let me know if you need further information.

Framework Order After Goods Receipt

Hi,
I have a framework order which GR Non Valuated is checked and GR Bsd IV is unchecked. When goods receipt is performed, under PO history in the framework order, the value of the of the GR is shown as 0.
Is this standard in SAP? Am I right to say that this is the case because GR Non Valuated is checked? Amount will only be shown at IR instead.

Hi
Pl. Note that,As per SAP Best Practice,
For Framework Order with Item Category "B"....."GR Not Possible"
Only IR is possible.....
This details you can see in OLME ---> Define External Representation of Item Categories and go into details....

Credit Check while creation of Sales Order for Item Category Purchase Req

Hi Experts,
We are creating Sales Order using an Order Type ABCD for a material 1000. While creating Sales Order, we use Item categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP and ZOBO).
Credit Check settings are there at Order Type ABCD as well as all the Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP and ZOBO). We are trying to test a scenario where a customer does not have enough credit limit while creating a sales order.
When we create a sales order for Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP), credit check fails because our customer does not have enough credit limit, so that Sales Order gets created and Delivery does not get created (This is what we want), then we go into VKM1 manually and relase the sales order and then if we go to VA02 and check the status of the Sales Order, it says sales order status is complete. My Sales Team is saying here also Purchase Requisition is getting created.
When we create a sales order for Item category ZOBO, it is going into Purchase Requisition screen. Once we give another plant in the create purchase requisition screen and save it we are getting a message that cannot create Purchase Requisiton because of Credit Block.
The settings were same for all the Item categories.
1) What made difference to complete Purchase Requisition for Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP) and not for Item Category ZOBO when my customer is not having enough credit Limit.
2) Why Purchase Requisition screen is not coming for us when we create an Sales Order for Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP). We only get Create Purchase Requisiton Screen for Item Category ZOBO.
Thanks

Hi,
None of the Item Categories has Create PO Automatically.

CRMD_ORDER and Item Status

Hello Frds,
I want to find a way to be able to change the Item status in a sales order dynamically.
My users are corrently changing Item status manually but for replication its mandatory to have all line items to One status. So somestatus i can not change abck. Can you please advice me if there is anyway to change the Item stats to intitial status? or to which ever the status we want?
thanks and regards,
Lata.

Hi,
From my understanding your problem is to change the Status to Initial manually. You can achieve this by changing the Status profile that has been assigned to the Transaction Types and Item Categories.
In the Status profile you need to change the Lowest Status and Highest Status possible. In the lowest status possible you need to put the lowest status number. Then you can make the status change from the lowest range to the highest range.
Have a look at this link for status management.

Framework Orders - Overall Limit

Hi SAP Experts!
I have an issue with Framework Orders and more specific on the Fields
"Expected Value" and "Overall Limit".
Below is an example of the issue:
I have an FO where the Expected Value is R$200.000,00 and the Overall
Limit is 1.510.100,00.
When it was released, the approval were done using the Expected Value and
not the Overall Limit. If the approval was defined using Overall Limit it
should be set up a diferent release strategy.
I would like to know if there is any way to put an blockage on Overall
Limit that does not accept value different of Expected Value. Both
values must be the same.
Could you please help me with that?
Kind Regards,
Tâmara Oliveira.

Logically if both expected and overall limit need to be same, then we dont need to have two different fields. Both fields have different purpose and it doesn't a best practise to make the system to equal overall limit and expected limit.
Is it not a best way to change your release to pick the overall limit instead of expected value?
