Is it possible to use IQS1 for purchase orders without material master?

Hello,
We are currently trying to come up with a way to send a notification on purchase orders which have GR's posted against them so that the purchasing team/requestor know that products have been shipped. We have an office in Qatar where we would like to ship products to (which we are purchasing out of a catalog based in the US) and we need a way to track the shipment. We are currently using T-Code IQS1 for any items which have been created as material master and are in stock within Qatar however we would like to utilize this t-code for products which are pulled in from a supplier catalog, which are not part of the material master.
Is there a way to use IQS1 for non-material master products?
Thanks,
Katie

Worked with my development team to locate the resolution.

To send IDOC to vendor from SAP for purchasing order

I want to setpu an EDI for send the outbound & inbound idocs to vendor for purchasing order from SAP and below are the message type I am using:
Outbound message type :
ORDERS
Inbound message type :
ORDRSP
INVOIC
I know how to set up the link, making the partner profiles attaching the process code, assigning the ports but I want to know the below customize set up:
1) Which transaction I need to used for customize this sceranio
2) Could you provide me any documentation which specifies the steps for configuration
And other details which I am suppose to know.
Please reply me as soon as possible as I am urgently in need of this.
Regards,
Sagar

Hi Sagar
For the Confirmation you need to do the customizing for confirmation control, like what would you like to do after the confirmation. Confirmation is an inbound process.
For Invoice you need to complete the customizing under LIV in SPRO- for Invoices received via EDI.
Please go throught the help link for further details.

Debugging EDI output (IDOC creation) for purchase order...

Hi,
We have a EDI output type defined for Purchase order. When I go to Messages tab in ME22N transaction and repeat the EDI output and save it, it creates a IDOC which I can see using transaction WE02.
Now the problem is there is a user exit which I know gets triggered, when the IDOC is created for this PO. When we do some changes in this user exit, I see those changes are reflected when new IDOC is created. But if I put breakpoint, and do repeat output -> save, the debugger does not stop there.
Is there is some technique I can see the breakpoint stoppage in user exit for IDOC creation during EDI output for Purchase order ?
Regards,
Rajesh

Hi
Youc can set the output Peridoically (After Giving the output type, set the furthere data as periodic).
Save.
Set the break point in your user exit.
Go to se 38 -> Run RSNAST00,
Give the object id (Your PO #)
Give the output type and execute, the control will stop at break point.

Baburaj

Problem in using output type for purchase order

Hi experts,
I am using output type for first time so may be i have done wrong configuration for po output type.The steps i have done are :-
1) Going to tcode NACE->Selected the row u201CEF Purchase Orderu201D and clicked on u201CProcedures".
2) In procedures there are 2 procedures for the application EF (Purchase Order). To proceed further, we would need to find out the procedure that is currently active.Gone to transaction SPRO. In this, navigate as Materials management -> Purchasing ->Messages -> Output control -> Message Determination Schemas ->Define Message Schema for Purchase Order
3) Clicking on u201CAssign Schema to Purchase Orderu201D. So, the procedure RMBEF1 is active for EF (Purchase Order) .
4) Go back to transaction NACE. Select u2018EFu2019 and click on u201COutput typesu201D.
5) Let us use the output type u201CNEU name purchase orderu201D for this purpose. Double-click on NEU.
6) Ensured that the checkboxes u201CAccess to conditionsu201D and u201Cmultiple issuingu201D are checked and the access sequence is 0001(DocType/PurchOrg/Vendor).Only 0001 and 0002 is available in f4 help for this.
7) Now clicked on u201CProcessing Routinesu201D on the left hand side. Ensured that there is an entry for Medium u2018Au2019 (Distribution ALE).
8) After that going back to the main screen of NACE. Select EF (Purchase Order) and clicked on u201CCondition Recordsu201D.
Select NEU and clicked on u201CCondition recordsu201D. The pop-up box appears that gives three radio button option :-
1) Purchasing output determination :purchasing org / vendor for EDI
2) Purchasing output determination :doc. type / purchasing org /vendor
3) Purchasing output determination :document type
but it is not having option only for purchasing organisation through which we can send idoc for changes or creation of PO in that particular pur.org now if i choose 2) i have to give doc type and purchasing org both bcoz they are mandatory fields and value for vendor.
9) Also i have done the necessary ALE configuration (not covered in this document). In the partner profiles, use the message type u201CORDERSu201D and the IDOC type u201CORDERS05u201D.In the tab u201CMessage Controlu201D, used the process codes u201CME10u201D and u201CME11u201D for u201CPO Createu201D and u201CPO Changeu201D respectively.
but the idoc is not generated many times when po is changed and when once it is generated it is giving error
Please suggest solution.
Thanks in advance
nehavt

In me22n in messages tab after looking into processing log it is giving->No recipient found for message type ORDCHG in the
ALE model ,next time giving error as no idoc items belonging to purchasing document found,when i changed message type to ORDCHG the status is green in messages tab it is giving-> error occured while idoc xyz is sent and in WE02 status is red 02
error passing data to port(could not find code page for receiving system)

Incorrect message type in IDOC for Purchase order change

Hi Gurus.
Please advise on below.
We have several purchase orders that are configured to trigger IDOC upon change. But accidentally, someone has deactiveted the automatic proposal of EDI message type for these Purchase orders which resulted to not transmitting purchase order change documents automatically.
As a workaround, we have proposed to create EDI message manually during Purchase order change. But upon checking in tcode WE09, message type is ORDERS which is PO create instead if ORDCHG for purchase order change.
Please kindly advice on why it is behaving like this for purchase orders with EDI message previously deactivated.
Thanks in advance.
Acel.
To simulate.
Create PO. go to messages, select EDI message then deactivate permanently. Save PO. Release PO if needed. Change PO. go to messages, EDI is not automatically proposed. create EDI message mamanually. Save PO. Release PO id needed. check tcode WE09, for PO create, no IDOC since it was deactivated permanently. For PO change, IDOC was triggered but with incorrect message type ORDERS instead of ORDCHG.

Hi Acel,
You will need to check the settings in transaction WE20 - You will be using a Partner Profile to determine the outbound message, either for each vendor or a generic one.
on the outbound parameters, you will need to ensure that ORDCHG is set up as a message type. If not, add it, ensuring that you use the message ORDCHG, the basic type (or extension) that you are using, usually ORDERS05 and make sure that in message control, you have process code ME02 set up. This should enable the correct message type to be determined.

Rob

Idoc for purchasing order

can any1 explain the steps needed to send a purchase order through ALE/IDOCS
pls explain it with reference to PURCHASE ORDER

Hi,
cehck the same...
This method is used for distributing transaction data like purchase order, sales order etc.
In this method the extra transaction code that we use is we41 (outbound process code) and we use this in the message control tab in the partner profiles.
The transaction codes that are required for this method are
We81
We30
We31
We82
We21
We20
Bd64
Nace
Me22n (purchase order), va02 (sales order) etc.
Ex: purchase order.
Message type: ORDERS
Idoc type: ORDERS05
Outbound process code for purchase order: me10
The steps that are to be followed are:
Check for the message type in the transaction in we81.
check for the idoc type in the transaction we30.
check we82 in which the link between message type and idoc type is there.
create the port in we21.
Configure the partner profiles in we20.
Click on the + button outbound parameters and give the message type, receiver port
Idoc type.
Now press on the message control tab, this is the place where u give the outbound process code. The message type in the message control is the output type that is used in the nace transaction.
Create a distribution model in bd64.
Go to purchase order transaction (me22n).and press the messages tab
In the messages tab give the output type and the distribution medium as distribution-ale and then save it.
Reward if helpful.

Nagaraj

What Message type and Process Code to use for Purchase Order Change in 4.6C

I like to implement in SAP R/3 4.6C a scenario for Purchase Order Change, via inbound IDoc.
I have been searching, but could not find what Message Type, Idoc Basic Type and Process Code to use.
I can not imagine this functionality does not exist in 4.6C.
Any suggestions for my problem are welcome.

Hello,
In this case you should use the message PORDCH and BAPI method BAPI_PO_CHANGE but only exist as of release 4.7.
Function module    BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1
Idoc Type              PORDCH01
Message Type      PORDCH
So check carefully the following OSS notes:
[Notes 589066 - BAPI_PO_CHANGE: Incorrect account assignment to network |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/589066] (not be fooled by the description)
[ Notes 197958 - BAPIs for purchase orders - Missing Functions|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/197958]

Please let me know the names of IDOC Type, Process Codes, message type... and all the other required information...
Thanks in Advance,
Kumar.

Hello Ferry,
Thanks again for the IDOC Types. I have another question. Can we use those IDOC types for creating/changing/deletion of Purchase orders or Vendor Master or Goods Receipt happens? I mean can we configure in such a way that when ever there is a change or deletion of PO or VM or GR happens?
I have got to know about the IDOC PORDCH01 which can be used for Purchase Order. Can u suggest me which can be used for PO's?

Use of SAVE_TEXT in customer exits / BADI for purchase order

Hi All,
I am trying to save some long text by using SAVE_TEXT function module in a badi implementation for purchase order header text. The same is working fine if i try to update the PO header text via a report. But if i try using badi (the code is written in a PAI event for the BADI), then though the text transfer and save is successful during the code excution, but for the first time when i add any text its not visible in ME22N tcode. Since its an online event. But when i double click on that editor and the sap script editor gets opened. then i press back button, the text is appearing on the same small screen edtor . after this any number of time i edit or delete text, the save_text function module works fine.
My issue is why for the first time always i have to double click on the editor to open the sap script editor. I have also included commit_text in this case after save_text FM.
the requirement here goes like this. in one tab for PO header the user will enter some number (This is a customizing screen implemented through badi.) and the corresponsing discription should appear when user clicks on text tab in po header screen (me21n / me22n).
Kindly help.
Thanks
