Generate Source List - Including Info Records

Hi!
I am generating source lists. Does anyone have an understanding of the "Including Info Records" check box on that screen. I was told not to check it, but I can't help be curious as to what happens if I do or don't check it.
Regards,
Judi

Hi,
the system will check for info records and if it finds one, the source will be added to the source list.
It is normally flagged because this is exactly what you want to do. (i.e. generate the source lists on the basis of the info records athat are there)
If you leave it unflagged then only outline agreements etc. will be added to the source list.

Difference between source list and info records

Dear All,
What is the difference between Source List and Info Records?
Thanks N Regards
Anandasiva

Hi,
The source list is the list which shows the sources from which you can procure the material. If you have ticked the source list requirement in the material master, then you can procure the material only from the vendors mentioned in the source list.
In Inf Record, you maintain the data for a material supplied by a vendor. e.g. Material price, tax code, other conditions,, buyer code, delivery & payment terms.
Hope your requirement is fulfilled.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.

Generate Source List - " No mesage record could be found ....

Hello,
I am generating source lists for OA's. In the process I am getting the following message when I save them:
"No message record could be found for output of message. Save anyway?"
I've not seen this before. Is anyone familiar with it and what it means and/or does if I do or don't save them.
Regards,
Judi

Hi,
this is the standard message that the system issues when it is trying to output (print) a document such as a PO or contract.
What MAY be happening is that you may be updating a contract or VSA somehow and the message is simply saying that it cannot reprint the document.
Save the document anyway, it just means you wont get an automatic printout.

Source list without info record

Dear.
Can I create a source list (ME01 trx.) without the info record ?
Thanks.

In what system are you? still in SAP ECC6 or in an earlier release?
How do you maintain the source list, copying or manual entry?
is your source just an external vendor, or is it a vendor with plant assignment, or do you just enter a plant number as source?
Can it be that you set the indicator for fixed source or MRP relevant? in this case you have to have an info record, as a source assignment will be done from MRP run and can be used for auto PO creation.

I have 2 laptops both with iTunes installed but on one my source list includes 'Movies' and the other 'films' does anyone know why this would be?

Source of supply (info record) in Shopping cart-extended classic

Hi experts,
We are on SRM 7.0.
We have changes from classic scenario to extended classic scenario, and after this a problem has come up?
When I create s a shopping cart for a product number, I have to allocate the vendor manually. If I activate the source of supply tab, I can't se the info record for the product number, which are created in the back-end.
I the classic scenarion is was working as this:
1. Create a shopping cart
2. Go to the tab 'source of supply'
3. Choose the vendor from different info records created in the back-end.
4. order the shopping cart
In the extended classic it is working as this:
1. Create a shopping cart
2. Go to the tab 'source of supply'
3. There are NO info record to choose from, even though I have created different info records in the back-end. I have to search for the vendor, and can't se any info record number. By this I can't get the right vendor assigned to the shopping cart???

Hi

Missing Source List and Info Pane??

Since upgrading to iPhoto 5 I have just had a page of photos from left to right of the iPhoto window.
I used to have my albums listed down the lefthand side in 4.
I now see that this should still be there along with an 'information/ calendar/ keyword pane' at the bottom.
I've searched high and low and I'm sure it's something simple but where on earth is the setting to add these panes??
Thanks...I'm at a loss.

haha, hey this is the one for the source pane so you can copy and paste the link! Actually this is my whole copy/paste post I make
Sometimes people can't get that source window open, even when they try to move the dot to the right.
First try to drag the button to show the column as show here
If that doesn't work, then you need to delete the Preference file. That info (size of the source window) is kept in the iPhoto Preference file.
Quit iPhoto
Open your User folder, then open the Library in your user folder, then open the Preferences in the Library folder.
In the Preference folder is a file called com.apple.iPhoto.plist
For now, drag that file to the desktop. Launch iPhoto and see if the source window is there or if you can open the source window. If you can, that means that Preference file you dragged to the desktop was corrupt. Put it in the trash.
IPhoto made a new one when it was launched. Open iPhoto Preferences and set your preferences again and you are good to go.

Quality info records: how to handle same supplier with different sourcing

hi all
I have material which comes from same supplier but different sourcings: as in I have one vendor supplying it but it can come from different sites; as some sites might be approved and others not, how can I differentiate that?
thanks
Alisa

You need to use the MPN profile functionality that is a standard part of SAP.
In Config under the purchasing define the MPN profile. There are several options you can turn on/off including info records.
You assign the MPN profile to your material. It now is considered by SAP to be an internal material number.
You then create a HERS material type for each separate manufacturer material number you have. You only need the purchasing view for these materials. You can also create purchasing text views, classification and some others if you wish.
In the SAP approved vendors list (AVL), you then assign each manufacturer vendor(s) with the HERS material created.
You create a Q-info record for each manufacturer/HERS material combination.
Now, when you specify the internal material number in a PO, the system will tell you to order the MPN material. When you do the drop down for the material now, it will show you the approved manufacturers allowed in the AVL for the ordering plant.
When the 01 inspection lot is created you will have a vendor number as well as a manufacturer's number in the inspection lot. The DMR can be done by the manufacturer or the vendor depending on how you set up the inspection plan. Q-info record will be used accordingly.
Take a look at it and research it. It's not hard to set up.

How the source list is created automatically

Hi all,
Cud any one tell me is there any way to create the source list automatically. as per my knowledge we need to give the tick for the plants we want the source list should be made mandatory while creating the material master.
How can be make the Source list field for the Purchasing view mandatory while creating the material master .

Hi,
You can have the system generate a source list for a material automatically. The system offers you the possibility of quickly entering or updating all source list records for a given source list.
With this procedure, a source list record can be created for each info record and/or each outline agreement item for one or more materials.
You can create the source list for several materials (collective procedure) or a single material (individual procedure).
Prerequisites
Before you create source list records, consider the following:
For which materials/plants are the source list records to be generated?
Are only outline agreement items, only info records, or both be taken into account? (Decision only in the case of the collective procedure.)
What is the validity period of the source list records to be generated?
Do source list records already exist for the materials for which you want to create source list records? If so, you must decide whether the old records:
May not be changed
Are to be deleted
Are to be excluded from the validity period of the generated source list records
Activities
Collective Procedure
With this procedure, you generate the source list for several materials.
Choose Master data Source list Follow-on functions Generate.
Enter the necessary data.
Create the source list.
A list of the source records to be generated is displayed. Already-existing source list records whose validity periods are thus changed are also listed.
Select the source list records you want to include in the source list.
Fixed or blocked source list records: You can mark a source list record as "fixed" or block it. A "fixed" source represents the preferred source of supply, whereas a "blocked" source is one from which you are not allowed to order. Select the desired source list record. Then choose Edit Fix, or Edit Block.
Choose to store the selected source list records for the displayed material in the source list.
Exception messages are displayed by the system. Press ENTER to continue the saving process.
Individual Procedure
With this procedure, you generate the source list for a single material.
Choose Master data Source list Maintain. The initial screen for the source list appears.
Enter the material and plant number. Then press ENTER to display the overview screen.
Choose Edit Generate records.
In the dialog box which appears, enter the validity period of the source list records to be created.
First determine how existing source list records are to be treated if their validity periods overlap with the one specified. To do so, set the appropriate indicator in the dialog box. Press ENTER . The source list is created.
Click to save the source list.

Customizing the Enjoy PO document overview for Purchase Info Records (PIR)

Greetings!
I am looking to use purchase info records to store material pricing information but we donu2019t want to lose the document overview functionality that SAP delivers with the enjoy PO screens (ME21n, ME22n, ME23n).
Has anyone had success implementing user exit MEQUERY1 to customize the document overview so that a purchase info record query can be added to the document overview & the attributes of the purchase info record can be copied over to the PO?
Iu2019d be curious to know what solutions other SAP shops came up with.
Thanks.
Richard Wortmann

Nick,
Thanks for the reply. We will have the source list generated for the purchase info records (PIRs) however the gap I'm looking to solve for is mainly for non-MRP material buys.
Our current business situation allows material handlers to run a query in the document overview to ID specific materials on a purchasing contract (aka outline agreement) and drag those materials to the shopping cart on the PO. This provides a very easy process for the buyer to ID materials & supplier relationships.
Since we are moving away from purchasing contracts we want to continue with the same drag and drop process but only allow PIR's to be selected in the query.
Looks like in OSS note 377180 SAP provides a user exit to implement this functionality (via MEQUERY1)- I'm just wondering if anyone has had success adding a PIR query to the document overview and creating POu2019s with reference to that query.
Thanks.
Rich Wortmann

how is work s.list?

( pls dont give any link)

Hi
Source list means list of sources (vendors)available for a particular material to procure.
The purpose of source list is for a material how many source are there to supply.
Steps:
1. while creating MM01 (Material Master) in the purchasing View in other data TICK the SOURCE LIST which makes it mandatory.
While creating Scheduling agreement you have to maintain source list in ME01
The following data are entered.
It contains material, plant,pur org, vendors with validity period from & to so that whether you can procure from the vendor or not.
Following T/Code activities in Material Management module.
Maintain source list - ME01
Display source list - ME03
Display changes to source list - ME04
Analyze source list - ME06
Reorganize source list - ME07
Generate source list - ME05
Display source list for material- ME0M
you make the system settings that are necessary for purchasing operations carried out using source lists.
Source list requirement for materials, It may be necessary to include possible vendors of a material in the source list before the material can be ordered.
The Source list requirement field in the purchasing data of the material master record indicates whether a source list requirement exists for a material.
You can define the Source list requirement at plant level in IMG. Logistics -->Materials management --> Purchasing --> Source list.
Here you can see the plants for which a source list requirement exists.

ME05 - source list, missing Net Price

Looking at ME05 - Generate source list, I would like to see NETPRICE when analzying the list. However this field is not available in the selection. Perhaps this is not the right transaction or there is anther way to analyze source lists and view the netprice without drilling into each selection.
Input would be appreciated

the source list does not deal with prices
The source list is more or less just a filter to the right sources, e.g. contracts and info records.
ME1M may give you the price information per material

Source list mass blocking of vendor

dear all,
ply give me transaction code for source list in which i can block vendors.
i have created an LSMW tool also but it creates an double entry in the transaction ME01.
we have even crated BDC but there also same error is occuring.
so is there any other ways for doing mass changes
regards
amey

One option is thru ME05 transaction, which is generate source list.
You get a list, there you can filter (e.g. by vendor) and then set block indicator.
Alternative, if you just want block the vendor, then use MK05 and block this vendor for procurement,
And about your LSMW and BDC, you are just not hitting the existing source list records, hence you create new ones. You probably have to enhance the key. Lookup table EORD to see what you may need to hit an existing record.
