Inactive External Procurement Relationship on a Trans Lane

Hello Experts,
I have a situation were a PIR record in ECC has been flagged for deletion for a particular Material/Vendor/Plant/Purch Org. combination. The problem appears in APO. After the PIR changes are processed through the CIF, the External Procurement Relationship on the Transportation Lane for all same Plant/same Vendor/same Material/different Purch Org. are marked as inactive.
Example. Vendor 123, Plant ABC, Material a1b2c3, Puchasing Org. 1000 is inactive in ECC (PIR marked for deletion) and APO.
Vendor 123, Plant ABC, Material a1b2c3, Purchasing Org, 2000 is also inactive in APO and should not be.
Is this situation were all the Plant/Vendor/Material/Purch Org. records are marked as inactive standard delivered functinality? This issue is preventing Work Orders from getting created in SNC.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Jeff Hnatiak

Hi Jeff
Which version of SCM are you using?  I am not sure about the specific behaviour in this case, but would tend to believe that this is not a standard one. Please try to do an intial transfer of the IM using RIMODINI and also share the selction for IM in CFM1.
Thanks,

  • Quota for External Procurement

    Hi,
    Can any One please tell me how to create quota arrangement for external procurement relationships using BAPI.
    Thanks In advance.
    Thank you..

    You can always use BAPI BAPI_QTASRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2
    Go to SE37 and test out the BAPI. Ensure there are T Lanes and mode for creating the inbound QA for external Proc.

  • Quota between inhouse Manufactured & external procured materials in APO

    Hello All,
    Scenario is like this:
    I have semi-finished material. Suppose it is 'AX'. Now this 'AX' material I am manufacturing & procuring from external sources also. Material 'X' is APO material(MRP Type='X0'). Now I transferred MM scheduling agreement of same part in APO also through Integration Model, to get schedule lines as well as manufacturing orders after Heuristic run. When I checked in APO, MM scheduling agreement was transferred to APO but the Quota  which I maintained in R/3 in MEQ1(% between in-house production & external procurement) was not in APO. Now in this case if I do the Heuristic run I got only Planned Orders(manufacturing orders), not any schedule lines against the MM Sch. Agreement. Now at this moment I was able to convert any planned order into MM Schedule line.
    After this I created the quota in APO itself. After creating the quota I was able to get the planned orders as well as MM schedule lines based on maintained quota.
    Regarding the above scenario I have some doubts. Please answer:
    1. Is it a correct practice, what i did ?
    2. I was very confused that when we maintains each Master Data of APO materials in R/3 why we need to create the same quota in APO also.
    3. Is there any way to transfer this quota from R/3 to APO ? If yes please tell me the steps. This will save a lot of my stuff. 
    Thanks in Advance !

    Hi,
    1. Yes, as per the scenario mentioned and since the planning is taking place in APO, quota is needed to be maintained in APO itself.
    2. This is because planning needs to input like proporational planning to to find out the right sources using quota and transportation lanes. But its master data intensive.
    3. In other way, I would see no need of maintaining the quota in R3, instead you maintain the quota only on APO. (if I understand requirement correctly).
    there is one way, you can avoid quota maintenance in APO. Here you need to use CIF user exit (APO outbound, C5) to modify the the procurement proposals of APO while getting transferred frm APO to R3 based on the quota maintained in the R3 side. This seems to be bit complex.
    Hope this helps

  • Purchase Requisition are not getting generated for External Procured Materi

    Hello PP Guru,
    The is a issue which the client is facing.
    The requirement is as follows
    There is material which is externally procured.
    They do the MRP run by using MDBT.
    Now the problem is Planned orders are getiing generated instead of Purchase requisition.
    It should always generate PR instead of planned Order.
    When the check in ME57 the PR is not reflecting, but when the check in MD16 the planned orders are getting reflected.
    Every time they have to convert the Planned order to Purchase Requisition in MD16.
    So can you please let me know as to why is this problem.
    Thanks & Regards
    Nilesh

    In the variant which you use in MDBT, modify the value for Create purchase req. to 1. Now if you execute MRP with the new / modified variant system will always trigger PR irrespective of the opening period.
    But if you want PR within opening period & outside of it should be planned orders, then maintain 2.

  • Price valuation with standard price in case of external procurement

    Dear All,
    I have the following scenario with my client.
    All the materials will be valuated with price control S, whether procurement type is E or F. We don't have any problem if procurement type is E. But where as if procurement type is F and price control indicator is S, the system calculating the moving average price and as well as standard price is also updating for some materials. For some materials there are not moving average prices.
    1. Can any one tell me when SAP calculates both moving average price and standard price? is there any setting to be done.(procurement type F and price control S)
    2. there are differences between moving average price and standard price, ofcourse there may be a difference, but in some cases the difference is more and higher than the standard price, this may cause financial loss to the company. How can solve this.
    full marks will be awarded.
    thanks & regards,
    Ramesh Balivada

    Hi
    Moving average is updated for External purchases although price control is standard price in all cases where there are movements in materials i.e., when they are purchases...
    Check for the materials where there are no updation of moving average and externally procured materials, there might not be any purchases..
    There would be no losses as even though it is calculating mov avg price, the stock, consumption is calculated with std price only.
    Check both the cases where there are std prices and check for cases where there are both prices getting updated.

  • External Procurement with a Valuated Sales Order Stock

    Hi Experts,
    I read the following in SAP Help,
    For external procurement with a Valuated Sales Order Stock, system generates a purchase requisition from the sales order.
    If you are using a valuated sales order stock, the externally procured material is assigned to inventory at the time of the goods receipt. If the sales order item is flagged as carrying costs and revenues, then when the goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place, the sales order item is debited with the costs of the externally procured material.
    My question is - it says costs of external procurement is debited to sales order item when " goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place"
           - but in my case, when I made the GR for purchase order (created automatically by sales order), system directly posted the procurement cost as actual costs to the sales order item. There is no delivery for sales order done still.
    So actually, when should the external procurement cost be debited to sales order item -- when GR for purchase order is done (or) when  goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place?
    Thanks,
    GAN

    Hi Rafi,
    Thanks for your reply. I understand the problem now.
    Material which comes from prod order is posted statistically (value type 11) to sales order when GR for prod order is done.
    Here, the issue is about a GR for purchase order (assigned to sales order). This material purchased is not used in any production process. Its a material which is supplied to customer along with main material produced in house.
    In purchase order, I have given the consumption account (which is cost element 1). Entry was Consumption Dr and GR/IR Cr. So, this posted as actual cost to sales order.
    I should have given inventory account in purchase order (with cost element 90).
    Its a mistake of using consumption account in purchase order.
    Thanks.
    GAN.

  • Set up std. price for proc.type F parts (External Procurement)

    Experts,
    what is the comon way to set up Std. price for materials with Proc.Type F (External procurement). Current I am using KKPAN and set cost out of PIR and material burden as seperate line.
    Looking for a way to have the material burden as fixed value in the system which I can use as base for calculation.
    Thanks in advance
    Jörg

    Dear ,
    For any FG material you should have Standard Price (S)  in Cost2 view  getting updated thrugh CK24 after ck11n done during production process .
    For any Externally procured item , you should have MAP or Planned price with Valdidty .Generally duing planned cost estimaiton , planned price will be considered  while you will do good issue agianst production order , systm will consider  the MAP to calcualte the cost of the material .
    Now to update the price you should carry out MR21 with new price for company code , validdity date , price control indicator  and valution variant .
    Generally in project scinario , you can use MAP for FG material .

  • Kanban - External procurement with multiple vendor

    Hi Gurus,
    We are working on implementation of Kanban for external procurement (Scheduling agreement) in my organisation. As per the business requirement, some of the components are supplied by more than one vendor. As per the standard process, Kanban supports automated processfor single vendor only & not multiple vendors
    Has anybody come across this issue? Could you plese share your experiene & any possible workaround or solution to this isuue
    Thanks
    Kariya

    Hi,
    This is how KANBAN works. Since sourcing is automatic.
    You could do a couple of things; first, have more than one control cycle, one for each vendor. Drawback is that you also need to have separate kanban containers for each cycle/vendor. But in the case where you have more that one supply area for a material this is not so bad.
    Another way could be working with internal demand area, in such a way that Kanban creates a stock transfer reservation. Then you need to process the requirements with MRP, and issue orders to multiple vendors (maybe using quota arrangement).
    To ilustrate the solution: your supply area is geting replenishment from the main warehouse, not directly from the vendor. These are two different storage location or plants...

  • MRP Net Requirements calculation in External procurement Vs STO

    Hi gurus,
    Lets say I have a FG 1234 which has raw component 9999.
    Case1:
    Setting for 9999 is externally procured.
    I have a stock of 50 pc for 9999.
    I got order for 60 pc for FG 1234.
    so system will only create purchase reks for 10 pc of 9999 as it already sees 50 pc in stock.
    Case 2:
    Setting for 9999 is externally procured but from one of our own plant (Using SPK 40)
    I have a stock of 50 pc for 9999.
    I got order for 60 pc for FG 1234.
    will system create STR for 10 pc of 9999 as it already sees 50 pc in stock? or will it create STR for 60 pc without checking stock in the ordering plant?

    >
    dorian661 wrote:
    SPK 70 will not create an STR. Stock of 9999 will be checked in supplying plant. In case there is a shortage, a procurement proposal will be created against the dependent requirement here. Stock is not checked in ordering plant. You will notice that dependent requirements for 9999 will be seen in the supplying plant.
    Dorian,
    Thanks for the reply. so are you saying that in SPK70
    In ordering plant - MRP will not look at the stock situation for that material
    In supplying plant - system will check stock requirement and create dependent requirement for the shortage amount
    and in spk70 case, against what element is the delivery done to the ordering plant? in spk40 delivery is done against STO.
    Thx

  • Kanban process for external procurement

    We want to use the external procurement process for replenishment of stock with Kanbans. So if we turn on the external procurement, it makes us create a scheduling agreement and link it to the kanban. The process is that when you scan the kanban EMPTY it creates a PR and then you can convert the PR to a PO.
    However, the users want to make this process less cumbersome. They want to have an external kanban but have a blanket PO. So when the kanban is set to EMPTY they want an output to generate to the vendor to replenish stock. And once stock is received (101 movement) against that PO they want the kanban to automatically change to FULL. Or they want it so that once they receive the stock manually, they go to scan the kanban FULL and it receives the PO for them (101 movement).
    I read the SAP documentation and it appears I can have a PO against this external kanban but I canu2019t figure out how to set this up.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I am not getting clearly.Please explain the requirement in detail
    Actually the external procurement cycle works as
    1) in the control select the replenishment strategy like
       A)Working with purchase orders.
       B)Working with purchase Requisition.
       C)Working with scheduling agreements.
    Select as per the customer requirement.
    2) Then once you make bin EMPTY then system automatically creates PO or PR or schedule line.
    3) Once you do the GR against the PO or schedule line manually then bin status changes to FULL automatically or make
       manually bin FULL then GR against the PO happens automatically. It's Vice versa .
    Explain your problem in details.

  • External Procurement with MRP based on sales demand w/o Production unit.

    Dear Friends,
    Plant AAAA is a central warehouse (Distribution center),from where materials are dispatched to other storage locations.
    AAAA is non manufacturing unit and is dealing only with FG's.
    Sales demand will come from different storage locations,based on which external procurement of FG's will be started.
    1.,how the sales demand can be turned into external procurement through MRP?.
    2.Please provide the customization settings to achieve the same.
    Regards,
    Venkatesh

    Hi Venkat,
    Try to use the functinality SOP, where you can maintain the demand in the system by T-code MD61 after getting all the sales demand from various locations,
    When you run the MRP, this demand will be considered & accordingly procurement proposal will be generated by the MRP run.
    Also you can go through below links sublinks for understanding about SOP,

  • Capacity Planning for External Procurement Material

    Hi, I have the following requirements.
    MRP Scheduling is getting executed material level (material no, plant) with scheduling type 2 which means lead time scheduling using MD02 Transaction Code. This is works fine for the Inhouse Product. In order to achieve lead time the functional team has maintained the necessary routing/workcenter configs.
    The business needs the same functionality "Capacity requirements calculation" for the external procurement material. Business is willing to maintain routing/workcenter config.
    Currently standard program (MD02) is not considering the Capacity planning for the external Procurement material.
    Could you please suggest is it can be controlled through programming.
    Kindly suggest the function modules for Capacity Planning - materialwise, plantwise.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks
    Giri

    Hi Giri
        I think the requirement is not mentioned clearly. Capacity is required only if the material is assembled/produced in house.
    Anyway try this. Set the Procurement type to X in the MRP views in material master. You might have to define your custom material type so that it does not force the procurement type to F. Try the feature called "Quota arrangement". The idea is to define the material in such a way that it can be procured externally or produced in house. With quota arrangement you can say what % has to be bought and what % to be produced in house. If it is produced in house then you can have capacity requirements.

  • MRP planning for external procurement

    Dear all,
    How do i make my system, upon MRP, trigger a purchasing requisition for external procurement of a external 3rd-party vendor?
    How to setup this in the system and master data?
    thanks,
    tuffy

    Dear Tuffy,
    For all the externally procured items,maintain the procurement type as F in MRP2 view.
    Maintain Purchase Info record for the material and vendor combination in ME11 and then assign the vendor for the material,plant
    combination in the source list in ME01.
    In this case the Purchase Info Record should be created for standard Info Record.
    In the case of sub-contracting assign the procurement type as F and special procurement value as 30 in the MRP 2 view of the
    material master and create Subc-ntracting Purchase Info Record in ME11 and assign the vendor in source list in ME01and source
    list usage as 2 in both the cases.
    The above sub-contracting is assembly sub-contracting process.
    Check and revert
