Is it possible to create info record without material number

Hi all,
Is it possible to create infor record without material master and what is the importance of the field Info update in PO.
Thank you for the help.

Hi,
1.Yes you can create Info record without material no. but you have create it for material group.Go to ME11 and only enter vendor ,Purchasing organization , and Plant don't enter material no.. and again enter maitain material gruop and require data for Material group.
2.Info Update indicator -
Info record update
    Determines whether the prices and conditions of this purchase order ite
    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.
reward if helpful,

  • Info record without material (EINA-MATKL). Tax code

    Good morning
    We need to be able to automatically define in the Purchase Order the tax codes when we are purchasing a free text item (without material master record).
    We are trying to do it by means of the info record for the vendor and material group, without the material. However the system is not able to determine this value.
    Please if you can help us to determine how we can automatically determine this tax code in a purchase order based on the material group, we would appreciate it.
    Thank you in advance and best regards,

    Hi Steve
    Have a query here regarding Info record without material number (using material group).
    1) I understand we can create info record wihtout material number using material group . but doest it mean all the material comes under that material group and having same vendor will use single info record?
    2) What is Purpose of Sort Key while creating such a info record.
    3) As per my understanding for this type of info record system never update the price automatically using info record in fact for such PO we need to enter the info record number manually.? am i right? if yes then what is the purpose of creating a info record with material group if anyways we need to enter the info record manually.
    4) i am creating a PO but even after entering the info record number (which i have created for the ,material group and vendor combination) system is asking me to enter the price against PB00.

  • Purchasing Info record without material

    Hi All,
    How to create purchasing info record without material by Material group.
    What is the t.code used .Is there any config
    G.Ganesh Kumar

    you can create by using the same tcode ME11 without mentioning the material number and after entering the relevant data in the screen pleasepress enter and in the next screen enter the materail group.
    Do always mention the order unit as for the material group it is very necessary.
    The order unit and material group are used as a checking criteria.
    When you create Free Text Preq SYSTEM will suggest automatically the info record as a source of supply for the particular material group but it will not suggest automatically for the  free text PO.
    There you have to take the  searchhelp for material groups in the relevant field in the item overview screen where material group and order unit are taken into account for the checking criteria.

  • Error material not maintained by purchasing when creating info record

    Hi Expert,
    I have an issue when creating info record, error says "Material ******* not maintained by purchasing". I've checked in MM03 purchasing view, all has been maintained and at the bottom there is message says "No plant-specific data exist". Accounting view also maintained. I've also checked in MARC table for this material and plant. It existed. I cannot see anything wrong on the material master setup but not sure why am i having this error...
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Error says "Material ******* not maintained by purchasing" & you checked purchasing view has been maintained.
    OK. Just cross check following optionS
    Option-1: You creating info- record for material with combination of plant & vendor....check did the material have purchasing view for same  plant-the info-record you are creating!
    Option-2: If no purchasing view for material with same plant , just extend in t.code MM50 for E     Purchasing
    Option-3: Check the material for same plant, did Procurement type F (External procurement) is there
    Option-4: Check Profit Center in Plantdata/ sto-2 view of material.

  • IS IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE A PO WITHOUT PLANT

    HELLO EXPERTS,
    I have following business scenario,,
    for a material X , price for plant A is 20 rupees and for other plant 25 rupees.
    I have created one info record for that .
    PLANT SPECIFIC INFO RECORD (plant A) 20 rupees
    INFO RECORD (WITHOUT ANY PLANT )   25 rupees
    but when i going to make a PO it will ask for plant , and after i giving the plant name it will pick the plant specific value(20 rupees). So I cant able to do the 2nd scenario, i mean ..with 25 rupees.
    As I know that it is not possible to make a purchase order without PLANT.
    SO IS THERE ANY ALTERNATIVE WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
    again in my screen layout setting ( standard purchase order NB / NBF ). IN BASIC item PLANT HAS OPTIONAL ENTRY NOT REQUIRED ENTRY.Than why it is asking that plant is mandatory when i m making a standard PO.
    plz hepl me
    regards

    Hi,
    Without entering the Plant you cann't create the PO. Plant is mandatory.
    If your Materials is maintained in 2 Plant then the Price in both the plants is different (20 & 25)
    So in the same PO you can enter the 2 line items with the same material and enter the 2 plants respectiviely with the net price as 20 & 25 (or will pick from Info record)
    If you want same material is valuated in 2 price in single plant you can use the Split valuation method ( Val category & valuation type )

  • Copy/Create info records (ME_DIRECT_INPUT_INFORECORD)

    Hi all
    I would like to create a program that allows the users to takes an existing info record of a material and applies it to other materials. I have tried the FM 'ME_DIRECT_INPUT_INFORECORD' without success. SAP does not have a documentation on how to use this FM. Does anybody have a working example on how to create info records with this FM or any other for that matter? Any feedback would be appreciated.

  • Info record without Plant

    Hi,
    I have got standard inforecord created without plant  and with plant for a given material code and vendor code combination. I put tick mark in deletion indicator in condition tab for without plant as I want to use info record with plant only.
    But since I put deletion indicator in condition tab, its net price and effective price became zero.
    Now when I am trying to create PO, even though correct inforecord exists with required condition value with plant, system is finding inforecord without plant with zero effective price and giving error message "Maintain Pricing Condition In Info record".
    Kindly suggest how I can remove info record without plant and generate PO with info record with plant.
    Thanks & Regards
    Ratna

    Remove deletion flag in ME15,
    Extend info record for vendor,material,purchase orgn,plant using ME11,press enter,maintain price in condition tab.

  • .   Is it possible to create condition record in both CRM as well as in R/3

    hi,
    .   Is it possible to create condition record in both CRM as well as in R/3?  Explain in more details.
    Regards,
    babu

    Hi Babu,
    No. You cannot create condition records in CRM when back end is R/3.
    Condition records should be created in R/3 and replicated to CRM.
    You cannot extend condition records in CRM.

  • 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"

  • Is it possible to create a WBS without Company code

    Hello,
    I am a SAP CRM guy and I am creating a WBS in PS system from CRM Campaigns.
    My question is whether its possible to create a WBSE without having a Comapny code?
    The reason we need this is because we are planning campaigns at a very high level and later we want to procure for these cmapaings at multiple company codes and cost centers through SRM. So we do not want to restrict the WBSE to one comapny code.
    Regards,
    Vicky

    Hi Ammar,
    The reason this scenario does not seem to be feasible is we have a one to one relationship between campaigns and WBSEs. Creating multiple WBSEs would translate as creating multiple campaigns, which we want to avoid at the first place as this increases the amount of data entry for planning and planning will become based on the procurement we is not the right way.
    However, atleast I am sure now that I cannot have WBSE without company code.
    Abdul,
    Now I am thinking whether its possible to create a Project instead of WBSE and then procure wrt project?
    I need to check the possibility of creating project from a campaign, but from the procument perspective, do you know if its possible to procure wrt project?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Vicky
