Help purchasing org, plants & company codes

Hi Gurus,
I have the following scenario which need some advice and clarification from all of you.
Plant A is assigned to company code A
Plant B is assigned to company code B
*Note that company code A and company code B are using different currency
PO is to be raised out of company code A and deliver to plant B. That is the Bill to address is to company code A and delivery address will be plant B address.
I tried assigned both plants to the same purchasing org A, and input company code A in company code field and plant B in the plant field as PO data. And encounter the following error "Please only use plants with local currency XXX" where XXX currency is the currency used by company code A.
Is this method incorrect? If yes, can someone advise me the right approach to handle such purchasing scenario?
Thanks.

Hi Jürgen L,
the reason why they get company code A to pay for the plant B purchase is because company code A acts as a regional headquarters, sometimes it could be cheaper to procure in the country of company code A due to the tax issues. Hence, plant B is getting company code A to purchase on their behalf.

Purchasing Org.&Company Code fields how to hide,Reqd.entry,Opt. entry,Displ

hi, how to hide, reqd.entry, opt. entry and display these 2 fields(Reqd.entry Opt. entry Display) in PO

Hi,
You cannot create a PO without specifying POrg and Company Code. It is standard in SAP. Though you can make other fields as Optional, Required entry and Display through Define Screen Layout at Document Level in SPRO.
Can you please tell us why you want to Hide POrg and Company Code?
Thnx.

Purchasing org to company code

Hi gurus,
is it possible to assign differant pricing procedure to same vendor?

Hi,
One purchase organiztion can only have one Schema Group by "define schema group" in customizing ; and one Schema Group and one Schema Group Vendor can have one pricing procedure for standard purchase order. You define vendor by selecting purchase organization and schema group vendor so you can decide pricing procedure. The pricing procedure is very important to compute the actual price! And it is defined by "Define calculation schema" in customizing.
All the above is from "Define price determination process" in customization.

Hello AVI,
U can use the BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST.
In that there is one method Process_header.
From there u can do all the things that u need in the header part of the Purchase Order.
I think the Below User Exit can also be used :

Assignment of Purchase Organization with Company Code and Plant

Please give me solution to Assign Purchase Organization with Company Code and Plant. While creating a material in organization level plant and purchase organization should be assigned.
Please help me out.
Thanks

Hi,
I am not sure if i have really understood your query.
Material creation means creating master data, as far as creation and assignment of organization elements with other organizational elements are concern for eg : purchase org in you case is part of standard configuration.
You create Purchase org using t-code OX08 here you copy from and existing one and then chane the description of Pur org as per your requirement.
You assign Purchase Org using t-code OX01 to company code assignment, t- codeOX17 for plant assignment to Purchase Org.
Normally you do all your changes in Devlopment server save the changes in an transport request then move it to quality and production enviornment.
Hope this helps.

Contract from centralized purchase organization without company code

Hi Experts.
We have six company codes
And having one centralized purchase organization and it is not assigned to any company codes
While creating contracts all company code uses this centralized purchase organization.
My question is :-
I want to create contract with above centralized purchase organization without company codes in it so while converting above contract to po we can use any one company code in the po.
How to create contract with centralized purchase organization without company code? (Later this contract can be used to convert po from any the company codes )
Please helpu2026
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
What you need to do is:
In SPRO->Org.Structure->Definition->Materials Management->Maintain
Purch. Org. you need to "declare" all your Purch. Orgs.
In "SPRO->Org.Structure->Assignment->Materials Management->Assing
Purch. Org. to company code" you must NOT assign your corporal Purch.
Org to any company.
In the Plant assignment screen assign your corporal Purch. Org to all
the relevant Plants.
In this kind of hierarchy you make all the purchasing activities
(contracts, PO's etc.) for this purch org.
Thats all.
In the case that you have 2 level hierarchy: one corporal and many
company\plant assigned purch. orgs you need to do additional step.
After assigning a "small" purch. orgs to the plants and companies you
can assign them to "reference" Purch Org. (that not assigned itself to
any plant/company) in the ""SPRO->Org.Structure->Assignment->Materials
Management->Assing Purch. Org. to reference Purch. Org."
That kind of hierarchy allows you to make a contracts at the "reference"
org. level and use them in PO's by the lowest purch. orgs.
Hope that it will help.

Udaya.

Purchasing Organization to Company code relationship question

My client is running EEC 6.0 in production. When the original configuration was done, the purchasing organization was incorrectly assigned to the company code (table V_T024E_Assign; menu path: IMG > Enterprise Structure > Assignment > Materials Management > Assign Purchasing Organization to company code). This should have been left blank since we wanted the purchasing organization to serve multiple company codes. I know that I can blank out the company code and assign each plant ( e.g. plants for company code 1 and plants for company code 2) to the purchasing organization.
The question that I have is: What impact would this change have on any of the existing purchasing related transactions currently in the system (e.g. purchase orders, invoices, receipts, issues)? Would it cause any problems?
Any assistance is answer this would be appreciated. If you need more information, please let me know.

(1) You can assign a purchasing organization to one company code. This is company-specific purchasing.
(2) You can assign a purchasing organization to no company code but to plants.
This purchasing organization can then procure for all plants assigned to it, irrespective of the company code to which the plant belongs.
Since each plant must be assigned to a company code, the company code can be determined via the plant in each procurement transaction, even if the procuring purchasing organization is not assigned to a company code.
A purchasing organization must be assigned to one or more plants. This is plant-specific purchasing.
When you will delete the realtion of P.Org and Company code. It will shift to the second situation where P.Org is assigned to Plant and since Plants are assigned to company code so it will refer to the respective company code.

Workflow for approval Plant/Company code wise

Dear Gurus,
I am new to work-flow I want to change my work-flow according to company/plant wise .
Right now we have made a workflow with two release levels one for purchase and second for Finance.
We have got two companies under one client and same controlling area. But both companies have different company codes.
When Po is sent for approval the alert mail is given in SAP-inbox of approving authorities according to category like Spare,Raw material etc.
But due to same workflow the mail goes to both companies authorized persons so what happens person from one company is giving approvals for another company. So we want to sent mails to SAP inbox according to their company codes or if this is not possible than plant wise.
Thanks in advance
Himanshu

Hi,
As per requirement i think your workflow is working fine in particular plant, if yes means in your workflow container is there any company code is available please confirm the company code in workflow container
if company code is available means then you all just want to do is you need to bind the company code to your business rules and your open sql query should be based on company code also, then your agent assignment will automatically work for different plant.
Hope this helps,

Default SC Plant Company code and Storage location Based on Position

Hi All,
We are on version SRM 7.02.
We are using SAP ECC R/3 EHP7 based system as a back end FI and HR system.
Org structure in SRM is replicated fromm HR system.
We have case of concurrent employment in the HR org structure , which means one USER can be assigned to multiple Positions in an org structure.
We have a user A , who is created in Two different org units say O1 , O2 occupying positions P1 and P2, belonging to company code C1 and C2.
Whenever a SC is created a custom enhancement shows all the user positions to him and he has to choose one from the list of positions.
Now based on the selected position(P1) , i have to default plant(PL1), storage location(SL1) and Company code(C1).
Even after defaulting attributes based on the position, user gets an error "company code C1 is not valid for user"
This error (Message class : /SAPSRM/CLL ; # 135) is thrown from method : /SAPSRM/CL_CH_WD_DODM_SC_I_BD /SAPSRM/IF_CLL_MAPPER~UPDATE
after getting user's Company code using following method.
/sapsrm/cl_pdo_shared_user=>/sapsrm/if_pdo_shared_user~get_company_code
This gets Company code as C2 ; Based on Users Attributes and not based on User Position attributes.
If i overwrite values fetched by this method in Implicit enhancement, then plant(PL1), storage location(SL1) are not getting fetched.
Does anyone have any solution for this problem?
Regards,
Ashish Shah

Creation of Sales org and company code

Hello Folks,
Am i right to say that sales org is assigned to company code but the creation of sales org is not dependent on the existence of the company code is will be assigned to?
regards
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
You are right. You can create either company code first or sales organisation first. You can first create everything you need (sales organisation, plant, d.channel, division, company code, credit control area....anything) in any order, the order really doesnt matter here.
Once you start assigning,, the assignment elements shoudl be there. Thats all. If the assignment elements are there, you can assign them, as long as they are there in the system.

ME54 - Restrict by purchase org and release code

Hi All,
We have a requirement that wants to allow one user to have multiple plants and for one for each one a different release code. Well release codes are controlled by auth M_EINK_FRG and plant is controlled by M_BANF_WRK. Because plant and release code is not in the same auth if I give multiple plants it will allow the greatest release code for all plants using M_EINK_FRG. Has anyone every figured out how to restrict different plants to unique release codes within one user. Did you use some sort of custom auth or user exit?
Our ideal situation would be able to restrict by purchase org but unfortunately it appears that the tcode ME54 does not call the auth M_BANF_EKO so we cannot restrict by purchase orgs. Has anyone thought of a way to get around this.
Thanks,
Mary

I believe what you want to achieve may be done through the PO release strategy - since PO releases are based upon the release code and the strategy. A PO for a certain purchase org could be defined for a certain set of release codes.
