Info Record and Purchase Req

I created a purchase Req and when and I have following doubts in this.
1. Once I entered plant itu2019s automatically populating storage location. Material maintained for different storage locations but I am not sure how it's populating specific one.
2. One I click on source of supply it shows me different info record and I selected one of the info record for assigning the source. How this process is different from mE57.To me both look same.
3. I created the PO and I entered different price then info record and my info update was checked but still it didn't update info record with new price. Any suggestion why?
Thanks

hi,
1. You would be maintaining the MRP view of the MMR....Never forget the possible assignment for the Plant to the storage location is provided in the SPRO enterprise structure for the MM....
2. Yes the process is merely same...Also never forget that there may be many inforecords for the vendor material, based on the different organisatinal levels provided and for its combinations...
3. THe price never gets updated in the info record, but always the PO price history gets updated...you can see the PO price history in transaction ME1P...

Linking document info record and purchase order

Hi all,
I hope that someone can help me because I'm having a problem with creating links between document info records and purchase orders.
By default in SAP I can create links between document info record and purchase order ITEMS! When I create that link, I can see it in document info record under Object links tab, but when I double click on the number of purchase order nothing happens (I expected that this purchase order will open).
Why is that so?
Why can't I access purchase order from document info record even though the link exists?
The other question is about creating object links to purchase orders, not purchase order items! Is it possible to link document info record with purchase order?
I would appreciate quick answer because we're in the middle of a project and we're stuck with that problem.
Thanks!

Hi Karlo,
As you mentioned, object links could be linked to Purchase order items. In customisation you maintain these entries under the node SPRO > Cross Application Components> Document Management--> Control Data --> Define Document Types --> Define Object Links.
There are many links in the standard system (possible entries).
The system automatically determines the screen number (dialog box) where the key data for the object is maintained for document maintenance.
You can check the screens when the screen entry is missing or contains errors by doing the following:
Start the Object Navigator and display the objects for the development class CV.
Expand the function group 130. The structure nodescreens lista all screens that can be used for object links.
You can make an object link to SAP objects that are not shown in the possible entries list. To do this, proceed as follows:
In the standard system, there are already two special screens for the module pools SAPLCV130 and SAPLCV140 for the linked SAP object.
You must create two new screens with the same number for the module pools SAPLCV130 and SAPLCV140 .
The processing logic must follow that of screen 1204 in program SAPLVC130.
Create function module OBJECT_CHECK_XXXX (XXXX = object name)
If the object can be classified, this function module already exists .
Otherwise copy the function module for linking equipment DOCUMENT_CHECK_EQUI and change it as required for the new object.
Hope the above instruction helps in solving your problem,

Purchase info record and Contract are not reflected in SC

Hi...
while i am creating a shopping cart in SRM for a particular product... i am not able to find the Purchase info record or Contract in SC - Source of supply tab...
I maintained the Purchase info record and Contract for the particular material in Backend(4.7n).
Plz throw some lights on this...
thx....

check info records/contracts are existed in backend for your product in srm?
is your cart is special request(describe requirement ) or internal goods and services?
if you are in ecs mode. it is not possible to see your inforecord/ backend contract in srm sos window

Material Group in the Info Record and PO

We have the scenario of an info record that is "standard" and "sub-contracting". When you display the info record for either category using ME13, it has the value for material group in the general data screen. Technical Assistance tells me this value is found in EINA-MATKL. However, when I do an extract for the info record from EINA, the field is blank.
My two info records (standard and sub-contracting) in EINE were created differently. The standard one was created using ME11 and a plant was entered. Because a plant was entered, the material group value was not required. The sub-contracting info record was automatically created when the PO was created (InfoUpdate button is on). In the PO, the material group was also entered; however, a plant was not added to the info record because we do not have EVO set up to include the plant when the info record is automatically created. (This is something I can change).
This is very confusing when we are looking at these info records and it appears data should be there but it is not. This most noticeably happens with the ones that are getting created automatically and then a different category is created using ME11. Are we are missing some addl requirements in configuration when these records are being created automatically????
Can someone please explain???? I need to come up with a solution to this problem.

If you want to enter diff ordre unit than in the PIR
In this case in the material master purchasing screen you have to activate the var order unit
enter 2 here
now go to your info record and on general data screen you will see the field var ordre unit
here enter 2
than click on conditon from menu
system will popup the order unit screen
here keep cursor on box and click choose
now it will allow you to maintain the box price also
once you do this than it will automatically defult in the Po upon selection.

How to make the price in PO to adopt from info-record and not changeable?

Hi Xperts,
Can somebody explain to me how to set the PO price to be adopted from the info-record and is NOT CHANGEABLE at the creation and change of PO screen. I know that i can configure the field selection for the PO type to be "price as display" only. Any other solution?
Thanks.

Hi!
tick the check box info-update at the item detail under master data tab in a PO.
its significance is as follows:-
Info record update
    Determines whether the prices and conditions of this purchase order item
    are suggested in future PO items.
Use
    Selecting InfoUpdate causes one of the following situations to occur:
        -   If just one info record (with or without plant) exists, it is
            updated.
        -   If no info record exists and "plant condition requirement" was
            specified in Customizing, an info record with plant is created.
            Otherwise, an info record without plant is created.
        -   If two info records exist (that is, one info record with plant
            and one without plant) the info record with plant is updated.
Dependencies
     You can specify that prices and conditions in purchasing info records
     are only allowed at plant level in the Purchasing IMG, under Conditions
     -> Define Condition Control at Plant Level.
Hope this helps you,
Regards,
Archit.

Hi Experts,
Please Suggest ur Valuable inputs.
1) Created a Material

Now after raising the Purchase Order for the first time without Maintaining Info-Record and With Info Update Tick in Purchase Order screen in Material Tab, For the Next time when i raise the P.O with respect to Same Vendor the Previous Price will be Picked up.
But where i can see this Price ?

It will get updated in the menu details of Inforecord. Goto Inforecord Purchasing data > In menu details go to environment > There you can find the order price history.
Note: PO price will never update the conditions in inforecord.

Differences between info records and conditions

In pricing of purchasing, I have found using both info records and conditions. Also in the menu path <b><i>Logistics->Material Management->Purchasing->Master data</i></b> have both 'Info record' and 'condition' menu folder.
I want to know the differences between info record and condition and where to use them respectively. Anyone can help me?
Thanks a lot!
--Alex

Hi ,
Condition enables you to store pricing stipulations agreed with the vendor (such as applicable discounts or surcharges, or stipulations regarding the payment of freight costs) in the system. You can enter these conditions in quotations, outline purchase agreements, and info records. You also have the option of entering general conditions at vendor level, for example. The system then applies the conditions in determining the price in purchase orders (POs). You can enter further conditions in the PO itself.
Simply put - Info-record is a type of condition record.
Purpose of Condition Records for S&D
Condition records allow you to store and retrieve pricing data in the system. All the pricing elements of your daily business - the prices, discounts, and surcharges for freight and taxes - that you want to use for automatic pricing must be stored in the system as condition records. You can define as many condition records as you want for the different pricing elements for any validity period.
You create condition records for all the pricing elements that the system takes into account during automatic pricing. During document processing, the system transfers data from the condition records and determines the amounts for individual pricing elements (prices, discounts and surcharges) and the final amount for the sales document.
For MM and S&D related condition information refer to the following URL :

BRFplus and creation of info record and source list

Hi there.
I would like to use BRFplus to fill out MM values and after that automaticly create info record and source list for this MM record. The first step is ok, but creating IR and Sourcelist I am not sure. What is the best way to do so?
-> Calling FM? If so how should I use the Result Data Object and Dispatcher field in BRFplus?
Thanks in advance.
Per Zanchetta

Hi,
Yes could call FM using BRF+ Procedure Call-Function Module. And map the exporting parameter (results of FM) to BRF+ ruleset parameter and do the further processing.
When you assign FM name then in below container UI you can add all required parameters using "Add Parameter" button.

Distinguish b/w Automatically created Info Record and created thru ME11

Hi,
How can we distinguish between Automatically created Info Record and manually created Info Record (By User through ME11 transaction).
Where we can see the difference???
Plz guide...

Hi,
In case of Automatically created Info record, Net price and Effective price fields will be blank where as in case of manual info record, you maintain the price under "conditions" manually and which gets updated in net price and effective price fields.
Also Run Reports ME1M and ME1L, Info records with "Condition No Price Found" are automaically created. And manual info records will have have "Condition XXX Amount"

Purchasing Info Record and Source list

Hi all,
I am using purchasing info record along with a price for the vendor and material. This would get the net price into the Purchase order. Do i really need to create source list ? What will source list do for me ? Wouldn't having info record be sufficient ?
Looking forward to hear your suggestions.
Thank you.
Joyce

Hi Joyce,
If you have not maintained valid conditions in your Pur info record then price is picked from last purchase order through purchase order price history if customizing settings allow so (In your case if customizing settings allow and the net price 100 in the info record is not from valid conditions, price picked will be 250).
In the price determination process in PO system always first looks for pur info records with valid conditions if not found then it looks for last PO price.
There is also a parameter for default values for buyers called EVO. If you make settings in customizing for this parameter and tick the Chkbox for picking the last purchase order price in it and you attach this parameter to your user ID in the user-own data with PI value, then last PO price is picked as default value in the net price.
You can refer the following link

Source List -
The source list is used in the administration of sources of supply. It specifies the allowed (and disallowed) sources of a material for a certain plant within a predefined period. Each source is defined by means of a source list record.
The source list serves:
To define a source of supply as "fixed". Such sources count as preferred sources over a certain period of time.(For example, the fixed vendor for material 1 is X for the first quarter and Yfor the second quarter of the year.)
To define a source of supply as "blocked".(This means, for example, that contract 123 may not be used for a certain period of time.)
As an aid in selecting the preferred source during the source determination process.(For example, the vendor A is determined as the source for an item of a requisition dated 15th June relating to material 1.)
To block the external procurement of a material

Rahul.

Vendor info record and pricing procedure

Hi,
      When we create PO,
1.How the system will determine info record in that PO?
2.What is the need and role of this info record in PO?
3.What are the factors determines pricing procedure in PO?
   Plz send me detailed information.

1.How the system will determine info record in that PO?
Info record is an information record between Material & Vendor..
the Info record will have the combination of
Vendor, Material,Purchasing Org & Plant
If you raise any PO basing on this combination the info record will trigger automatically
2.What is the need and role of this info record in PO?
   The details maintained in MMD are Valuation purpose only,
for procurement the info record is used to get the details automatically,
Like Basic Price, Discount, Purchase Value Key,Scales etc...
3.What are the factors determines pricing procedure in PO?
   Price determination is based on Vendor Schema & Purchase Org Schema..
   basing on the above combination Pricing procedure will be determined.
But where to pick up the price of Pricing procedure depends upon the Access Sequence.
In the access sequence we will define where to search first & next etc..
