Info record and source list mandatory for PO creation?

Hi Gurus,
Client wants to make Info record and source list mandatory for PO creation?
If Inforec and source list not available for that material, then user can't able to create PO.
How can I achieve this requirement?
Any user exit available?
pls help..

Hi ,
SproMM-Purchasing -Source ListDefine Source List Requirement at Plant Level
If u mark the indicator then the Source list is mandatory for all the materials procured.
If u want for a speciic material , mark it in purchasing view of Material Master.
Inorder to create a source list , inforecord is mandatory -- this is by default Standard SAP .

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.

Info record and source list

Hi
We have two info records for one material and source list is not being maintained.
What will be the implications in this scenario??
Regards
Chitra

Hi,
If two info. record exists and none of them are marked a fixed vendor, then at the time of PR creation you will be offered two sources for the material and you will have to manually choose one source.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Thanks,

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.

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

Source list mandatory for RFQ.

Dear Gurus
Please let me know the how to do the source list mandatory for RFQ?
Regards
srinivas.

Hi
RFQ is vendor selection process where you are requesting the suppliers to send their quotation for a particular requirement based on the quotation received you will select the vendor by comparing the price & terms, conditions etc.
Once the vendor is confirmed as source os supply source list will be maintained to assist the external procurement.
Source list is to maintain the source of supply ( vendor ) for a particular Material & Plant after the vendor selection is carried out.
For example if you want to create a PR thru MRP the vendor will be picked from Source list automatically to the PR based on the settings in source list.
Hope you understood.
Thanks/Karthik

Info Recs and Source List

Hi Experts
I want to be able create a Source List for a small number of non valuated Material Masters which will be available when creating a P Req. The P Req will be priced by the creator and the P Req prices should flow through to the P Ord when adopted without being overwritten by an info rec price or previous P Ord price. Do you have any thoughts on this ?
Thanks in anticipation
Digidick

I doubt if standard SAP supports your required process, because SAP always give a first preference to Price Conditions from Info Record to fetch into PO..
If the Info record is available, SAP will not fetch the price from PR into PO.
However, you can look for any BAPI or OSS note

Info Record n Src list

Hi SAP Experts,
Cud u tell me the individual significance of
Info records and source list.
Regards
Ashok

Hi
Info record consists of all the information which is discussed with the vendor on a verbal basis
All this information is captured and stored in the info record. It captures information for a particular material wrt t oa particualr vendor
These are again 4 types
1) Standard -cpntains information for std PO created for materials and services which have/do not have master records
2) consignment: contains infomration about thematerial which are kept at orders premises at vendors own cost.it conatins the vendor with drawl price by the orderer from the consignment stock
3) Subcontracting: mainly consisits of ordering information for subcontract orders.contains info aobut the vendors subcontracting pricve for assembling the component
4) Pipeline: contains inf oabout vendors commodity that is supplied through pipes like water ,oil etc
This also has information additionla info like reminder days ,planned dwelivery time etc
And all these are discussed with the vendor well in advance,. These are entered into Iinfo record so tht there would be less of manual entry during procurement process
Source list :
source list mainly contains the infromation about the list of vendors who are available for that particular material
It captures atheinformation about al the vendors who have an agreement with that particualar Porg
i hope this gives you a fair idea
Award if useful

Inforecord and source list

hi all,,
Can some tel me how to configure Inforecord and source list for my company code and plant ??
Thnaks

Hi All
I have a question in relation to this, (thank you Maniraj for the helpful comment)
If i want to maintain a source list, is it neccessary to _only_ maintain through ME01 and the Material Master (Purchasing Tab)
Or will the MM update from ME01 ?
I have also heard, (and need to clarify) Source List needs to activated / configured via SPRO >> Purchasing >> Source LIst >> Define... etc.
Is this correct, and if not done, will changes in ME01 and MM still function
Further, if SPRO... is activated, do Source Lists become mandatory for all materials across the plant.
See below
Mauiraj, your comment "Source list requirement indicates whether you want to make 'maintaining the source list' mandatory for a plant." By not activating this, will source lists still be maintained, only not "Mandatory".
thanks for your help
regards

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.

Source list mandatory only for scheduling Agreement

Hi Gurus,
My client wants to make source list mandatory only for scheduling agreement. While creating scheduling agreement for a particular type and saving it should be mandatory. But for Purchase orders and contracts this is not required. If i do it through OME5 then it becomes mandatory for PO and SA both. Also if i set in material master it becomes mandatory for both.
Please let me know if there is way to do it.
Thanks and Regards,
Yuvaraj

It doesn't make too much sense, but... do you want to be sure (garantee) that the source list has been created and it is relevant to MRP when you have a schedule agreement? perhaps you can use a user exit when you save the schedule agreement to create the source list.
There is no standard functinality that's allow you to requirer the source list according the po type.

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,
Sojan
