G/L account no in purchase requisition/order

Dear all,
I have a little problem. During the creation of a purchase order a wrong G/L account is automatically assigned. With the account assignment category "Q", SAP determines automatically the G/L account 30000 and disables this field. However the account 60000 should be determined. This account is yet determined in the purchase requisition and copied to the purchase order.
I've been searching for a while and in my view, it has something to do with the account assignment. I tried the transaction OBYC, but I don't think I can change the account there.
Could someone guide me through this problem?
Kind regards,
Samuel

Dear Pankaj Singh,
In OBYC transaction GBB I retrieved following information:
0001/VBR/3000/609000/609000.
The material has valuation class 3000.
If I understand well, SAP should assign 609000 in the purchase order? But why assigns the system 3000000?
What do you mean with the valuation modifier VKP?
Kind Regards,
Samuel

Service purchase requisition/order with Material group optional

Is it possible to create a purchase requisition/order with item category D (services) without entering any material group?
We would like to enter only the G/L account but not the material group.

Hi,
It is not possible to create PR/PO without material / Service group & Item catagory D.
Better create service groups like material group which will help you for reports also.

Account Assignment in Purchase Requistion/Order

Hi All,
Could you please help us where to configure error message if account assignment in purchase requisition or order does not align with the configuration of G/L field status group?
Scenario during PR/PO creation:
1. Account assignment is F(CC and IO required) and G/L field status group is CC required only - the system trigger an error message which is correct.
2. But if account assignment is K(CC required only) and G/L field status group is CC and IO required - the system does not trigger any error message.
Is there a way so PR/PO creation won't proceed if account assignment is incorrect vs G/L FSG?
Thank you.
Jesielle

Jesielle,
The system does trigger a message in both PO and PR based on the field status group in the GL account. The only thing you need to do is change the status of the field in OME9 to anything other than 'hidden'.
Please see the screenshots below, maybe they'll help you:

OME9 for K:

Balance Sheet account in a Purchase Requisition

Can I use a Balance Sheet account on a Purchase Requisition? We currently do that and would like to be able to keep doing it. However, no matter what BS account I try to use it says "GL Account XXX cannot be used".
Also/Or what Account Assignment Category should I be using? I'm trying T.

That post is particularly hard to follow. It seems to say you can do it and you can't do it in the same thread.
In the end, I can't get it to work and need to know if it's not possible or if I just need to change some data and/or configuration. If I check the flag "Post Automatic Only" on the GL account, and try to use it on a Requisition, I get the error "No direct postings can be made to GL account xxxxx in Company Code YYY."
If I uncheck the flag "Post Automatic Only" I get the error, "GL Account XXXX cannot be used (please correct)."
These are definitely errors and not warnings. Either way it will not let me do it.
If SAP allows it, then I still need to change something.

Creating Purchase Requisition/Order from a CRM Service Order

Hello,
My client is using CRM 4.0 with Service Industry add-on.
I am trying to kick out a purchase requisition from a service order, but does not go through.
The Service Order is released in CRM and an internal order does get created in R/3. The material that I am using is a service product (defined in R/3 and used in CRM) and I trying to procure External services.
All the requisite configuration in CRM and R/3 have been done.
I get an error message E06 436 (In case of account assignment, please enter account assignment data for Item).
Would appreciate any feedback in this regard.

Hi,
I am working on the some scenario. Based on the limited documentation, it appears that you have to create a service master in R/3 that is than replicated to CRM (object SERVICE_MASTER). I did this, and this works. However, I am facing the issue that there is no sales data assigned to the service product in CRM, while you do need this (service order is not complete).
I hope that I will have an answer for this, and then I think that it should work.
The PO that is created in R/3 will contain an item with item category D and account assignment F (in our case, as we work with internal orders as account assignment object).
The receipt of the service provided will then be posted by means of a service entry sheet in R/3.

Purchase Requisition / Order: Account Assignment Category for material type

Hi,
When creating a PR or PO for one specific material I would like the system to propose a specific account assignment Category for this material. It shouldn't allow the user to change this account assignment category.
Is it possible? How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance.
Luis.

I dont think there is any standard procedure for doing this.
My idea would be to use a user exit say EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 for PR and a similar exit for PO and code a Error message check for Material type and account assignment combination.
For ex : EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 is a exit which is called during check in a PR . SO when the user enters a combination of Material type and Acc assignment u can check for the requirements.

Rejection of a purchase order or purchase requisition.

Hello,
I know this is a question that was asked many times before, but nobody was able to give a clear answer to it.
The objects purchase order(BUS2012) and purchase requisition(BUS2105) do not have between their methods, the rejection. But they contain the event REJECTED(rejection start).
Let's say i create a purchase requisition in me51n. If i want to approve it in an Abap program, I can use the function BAPI_REQUISITION_RELEASE_GEN. But what if i want to reject the requisition?
PS: I know that i can use workflow, but this is not the case.
Thank you,
Efren

Hello,
I think you are are right, but i have a question.
If you create a purchase requisition in me51n, then it will appear in me55( it can be released or rejected in me55). Iif i do not approve the requisition, it is clear that i am rejecting it...but it will remain in me55,no?
And one more question. I think you know that if you create a workflow where you send a workitem with the release of a purchase requisition/order, the receiver can reject it. Clicking the reject button really does nothing? It is just for design?
Thanks,
Efren

Unloading point and Goods recipient in Purchase Requisition

Hi,
I have a requirement to update Good Recipient and Unloading point in Purchase requisition.
I am using BAdI ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST and PROCESS_ACCOUNT Method.
in PROCESS_ACCOUNT method I am using IM_ACCOUNT_REF and GET_DATA and SET_DATA methods. and this is working fine for me.
I need your help in resolving below problem.
If Purchase already planned with some Materials by an individual, is now added more Materials by another individual, the system should assign the values of the Goods Recipient and Unloading Point of the second individual to the Material items in the document. The Goods Recipient and Unloading Point values of the existing Material items in the document should remain unchanged, unless these values are specifically changed by the user editing the document or the Material number of the original item has been changed by the user, following which the Goods Recipient and Unloading Point values of the current user should be adopted instead, overwriting the existing values.
GET_DATA and SET_DATA methods does not have the inforamtion Material number filed.
I have also checked GET_PERSISTANT_DATA and GET_PREVIOUS_DATA.
Please let me know which BAdI and method i can use to cater this requirement. or any Enhancement points.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Reason for not getting populated these fields from PR to PO
through ME59N or ME21N is because in general, in case of service
environment, these are not available as explained in attached
note 118008. Their role is taken by the so-called user fields
since release 4.0 which are declared as text fields and play
a purely informative role only....
These two fields have never been included into the standard
functionalities due to the basic business process which does not
include these fields for service transactions/functionalities.
The fields "unloading point" and "Goods recipient" are not available
for services in R/3.
>>The same functionality exists for blanket pos.<<<
One reason for this is that the account-assignment screen is filled
by the user on sub-item level. The system aggregates this information
to item level. This is not possible for the unloading point and goods
recipient, because there can be several unloading points / goods re-
cipients for one purchase/requisition order item.
This functionality won't be available in standard R/3.

Restricting purchase requisition specific to WBS

Hi All,
My requirement is as follows:
I have a material say M1, assigned to network activities in 3 projects.
Now when I am procuring M1 in Project 1 system should not allow to link WBS/Network as account assignment in Purchase Requisition for that particular material.
Actually my objective is that I should procure that material collectively (without account assigned) for project 1 & other than project requirement. Stock is kept in unrestricted use after goods receipt. P
Points for Consideration
- Same Material (M1) should be allowed with account assignment category (Q/N/P) for other 2 projects (Projects other than Project 1)
- Purchase Requisition for Project 1 will be created manually & should not triggered from Project. Then it will be issued to project through reservation.
Regards,
Manish

Hi Ahmed,
Thanks for quick reply.
But still I can make purchase requisition for the material with account assignment WBS/Network of Project 1. System will not stop me in creating such requisition & then at the time of goods receipt stock is tagged to Project.
I want that system should control that purchase requisition is not created for Material 1 in reference to Project 1.
Regards
Manish

No Account Assignment when I created Planned Order to Purchase Requisition

Hi ,
No Account Assignment when I created Planned Order to Purchase Requisition from Funds Management , where as If i change ( eq : PR item qty is 10 , i just changed to 0 , enter then replace back that 10 ) any thing in the PR , Account Assingment is populated and list of accountin documents are attached to PR.
Please suggest me , what might be the problem .
Thanks in adv

Hi,
a) When you convert the PldOrd into PurReq it disappears from table PLAF, it ceases to exist. There will be no PldOrd-reference in PurReq (you will not find such field in EBAN). (if you check field RSNUM in PLAF before converting the PldOrd and you check field RSNUM in EBAN after converting the PldOrd into PurReq, you wlll find the same number)
b) It's not easy to say. You can check PLAF-PSTMP and PLAF-PUSER and compare these with data you get from trx STAD. But this is also not an exact methode since these field are in connection with the last date of change.
Firming indicator cannot help also since you can remove it manually... - even though the PldOrd was changed manually, no firming indicator will be seen...
(Of course, generally firming indicator helps if the user doesn't remove it intenionally)

Csaba

Purchase requisition with reference to blocked sales order

Hello,
we are creating purchase requisitions (PR) manually with reference to a sales order (account assignment Z). When this sales order is blocked, we still can issue the purchase requistion.
What can we do to avoid this? I think in 2 solutions:
- use enhancement MEREQ001 to show error message when SO is blocked, so PR is not created. Is this possible?
- create a release strategy for PR created in that plant (tr. OME6). The problem is that release strategy refers to an amount in the PO, and not to other factor, like SO blocked. Maybe in the former enhancement we can set the field EBAN-GSFRG to 'X'?
Thanks for your help.

Many thanks for your answer. It help me to solve the issue.
So applying note 738171, with transaction OVB5 (or VOFM, requirements->subsequent functions->Purch.requisitions) we create one new requirement, ie RV07A900, and then we apply the rule that if we have delivery or billing block, that is, VBAK-LIFSK or VBAK-FAKSK not empty, then we set an error with a code similar to this:
            da_sy-msgid = 'Z1'.    (message class)
            da_sy-msgno = '001'. (message number)
            error_exception = true.
and then the PR is not created.
Regards.

Purchase requisition creation (STO) from Sales order

Hi Gurus,
Read the following scenario:
Sales order is created with delivery plant A. No stock on plant A.
Purchase requisition is created from plant B to plant A (intra-company flow or stock transfer order).
Problem is that the purchase requisition needs a price. It is not logical because intra-company flow (stock transfer in same company flow) is like a stock transfer without purchasing. So in my mind, I don't have to maintain price.
Also if I use ME27 to create manually STO between both plants, price is not asked.
Other question is: is it possible to create directly a purchase order when sales order creation (and not purchase requisition, newt convert into PO)?
Many thanks.
Stéphane

Hi Stéphane Vituret, Did you manage to find a solution for this. I have a similar problem as well.
Please find the scenario below.
Cusotmer places order of Mat-XX to Company A. The Company A creates PO to Company B. Company B delivers to Company A and then invoices Company A. Company A receives the goods into own stocks. Now the Company A delivers to the customer from its own stocks and then invoices Customer.
I decide to go ahead with the Individual Purchase order solution and since the Company A is buying from Comapny B, I decided to integrate the Cross Company STO flow in the procurement part. Hence the flow in SAP is like;
Cusotmer placese order to Company A
Comapny A creates a Individual Purchase order type Sales order. So the Item category is TAB.
This sales order generates a PR. PR is conveted into a CC_STO as thenvendor is Plant B in this case . Now this STO appears in the delivery due list of plant B.
Now I genreate the delivery to move stocks from plant B(of co.cd B) to Plant A(of co.cd A).
Here is the problem. I am not able to do PGI as the system checks for "sales order" stock at plant B and throws error
"Sales order stock 36637 000010 does not exist". This should not be the case as the stocks should get attached to the sales order only when recieved into Plant A. Hence system should not check for "sales order stock" at plantB while trying to deliver from Plant B to Plant A.
Lets take a normal IPO scenario.
CusotmerA places order of Mat-A to Company A. This sales order generates a PR. The Company A converts the PR into a std.PO to external vendor. The PO from the sales order will have a account assignment "M- Ind. cust. w/o KD-CO". The stocks will be received into Plant with spl indicator "E" while GR (MIGO). Now the system ensures that this stock can only be delivered against the particular sales order. Thus the stock procured for the customerA is delivered to customerA and not consumed by anybody else. In this case there is only one delivery involved, in SAP, which is 601 mvmt type from the Plant A.
However if the vendor becomes another Plant (Plant B) belonging to another company code then there are two deliveries involved in the SAP system one with mvmt type 643, from Plant B to Pant A, and the second with 601 from Plant A to the customer. Hence the system should check if the stocks are attached with a spl indicator only during the second delivery of 601 mvmt type. I am facing a problem because the system does it for the first delivery itself. If you know the answer please do let me know. I really appreciate it. Thanks a lot in advance.
