Issue in Inforecord

Hi All,
I am facing a weird situation. Base Unit of measure for a material is "G" and Order Unit is "KG". These data are correctly updated in material master(Purchasing view). When I try to update the same in Info Record , I get the message" base unit of measure in Info Record and material master are different". On checking the info record I found that "Base Unit Of Measure" field is blank in the info record. I belive that this field should have got automatically populted from the material master. For all the other materials its correctly populated.I am unable to understand :
1. How inforecord got saved without "Required field" base unit of measure which is blank.
2. Is it program bug?Do we have any OSS Note.
Thanks ,
Tausif

Inforecord Net price issue JPY currency

Hi Experts
I am facing an issue in Inforecords Net price when net price is mainatined in JPY currency
The data maintained and as can be seen using ME13 for Net Price for example is 1 JPY
Where as when I fetch this data using EINE table the value is shOWNn as 0.01
( Same is the case when Net price is maintained as 232,687 JPY. In EINE table NET price field this is shown as 2326.87JPY
Please advice why the system behaviour is as mentioned above . Also how can we overcome this issue.
Thanks and Regards
Vikrant

This is because the field is technically defined as currency field with 2 decimals.
Please read OSS Note 53206 - Processing of currency fields.

Vendor consigment process combined goods issue to cusotmer

Hi, All,
I have some questions on the consignment process.
One Scenario: For the MM consgiment without delivery to customer. I listed some steps with my questions below:
1. Create Consigment info record. Is it necessary?
2. Create consignment purchase order Item category K. Is there any special setting?
3. Goods receipt against PO. What's the movement type here? What's the movement type 201 K and 231 K used for? If 101, is it goods receipt to own stock?
4. No invoice verification done, but settlement is done through MRKO transaction. Is it paid consigment fees to vendor by this t-code? What's the accounting happened?
Two Scenario: For the MM consgiment with delivery to customer. I listed some steps with my questions below:
1. Create Consigment info record. Is it necessary?
2. Create consignment purchase order Item category K. Is there any special setting?
3. Goods receipt against PO. Placed in own inventory with a stock category of K. What's the movement type here? what means stock category K?
4. Create normal sales order.
5. Must remove the K from the inventory before a batch can be selected on the delivery-
a. MB1B- 301 transaction is used to removed the K and to reference the delivery number
b. Depending on if location is inventory managed an LU04 may be necessary to complete the movement off of K .
Why movement type 301 is here?
5. Create delivery and PGI (The quantity is different when you do goods receipt for this material)
6. Invoice to customer
7. Payment for that Purchase Order thrgouth MRKO. The issue is only paid to vendor based on the quantity which sent to customer, not on goods receipt. How it can be achieved?
Three Scenario: Is there any process create MM consgiment with delivery directly to customer? What's the process, movement type and what's the difference?
Thank you very much in advance

Hi,
1. Create Consigment info record. Is it necessary?
           Yes, for consignment process, inofrecord is must, price will be picked only from inforecord, you can't enter price in PO.
2. Create consignment purchase order Item category K. Is there any special setting?
           Item category K is standard for consignment PO.
3. Goods receipt against PO. What's the movement type here? What's the movement type 201 K and 231 K used for? If 101, is it goods receipt to own stock?
Movement type is 101, 201k & 231k is for goods issue.
Its not good's receipt ot own stock, its goods receipt to unrestricted stock with stock indicator as K, later you can take to your own stock through 411k.
4. No invoice verification done, but settlement is done through MRKO transaction. Is it paid consigment fees to vendor by this t-code? What's the accounting happened?
For example If you manage material A of vendor X as consignment stock at a price of $ 10 /piece.
When 100 pieces are withdrawn for consumption, the system makes the following
postings when the withdrawal is settled:
During Withdrawal
Consumption account                               1000 +
Liabilities from consignment stores            1000 -
During Settlement
Liabilities from consignment stores   1000 +
Vendor account                                1000 -
For your scenario 2, follow the same steps as mentioned above and do the goods issue directly from consignment stock.
You can do the settlement to vendor only for the stocks that you consumed.

Prabu

Issue in returns PO process- Third party

Hi All,
We have an issue in returns PO process -Third party
Customer Forward Processp flow as below
OR (US Sales Order) -> US Purchase Requisition (NB) -> US Purchase Order (NB) -> MIGO (Mvt 101) -> MIRO (Vendor Invoice) -> F2 (Customer Invoice)
Customer Return Process:as below
ZREP (with US customer) -> US Purchase Requisition (NB) -> US Purchase Order Return (NB) -> MIGO (Mvt 161) -> MIRO (Vendor Credit Memo) -> ZRE (Customer Credit Memo)
When the user raises Return purchase order , it is taking the price from Inforecord for current validity date.
But ,Our user wants , it should select the same price from the initial purchase order( as in forward process) even though the price changed in Inforecord for the current validity date when the Return purchase order raises .
Please advise how to achevie this reqmt. Any user exits available.
Regards,
Amara.
Edited by: AMARA LAKSHMANA RAO on Dec 3, 2008 4:01 AM

Hi ,
Thank you for the answer . Actually the user wants to capture the same price from the initial PO (forward cycle) into the returns PO(return cylce) .
For example initial PO (forward cycle) raised on 01.11.2008 at price $100 , then Inforecord changed at price from $100 to $200 on 20.11.2008.
User raised the returns PO(return cylce) on 21.11.2008 , then price is taking as $200 . But the user wants to capture the old price ($100) from the initial PO in to the return PO .
How it can acheived.

Amara

Inforecord value not picking in po

Dear friends,
this is chandra shekar , here i have a problem with inforecord that in inforecord the price is 100 for that discount is 2 % that means the mat price is 98 rupees ok but when i'm creating po the system is picking only 100 rupees instead of 98 rupees plz give me the solution for this .
regards
chandu

Hi Chandra,
check for the access sequence of the discount condition in ur info record. If access seq is not filled then enter the acc seq of the price condition for the discount condition also.
Also make sure that the corresponding discount condition is used in ur pricing procedure with automatic entry as the priority in it.
Even though the discount condition is entered in inforecord it should b used in the pricing procedure with acc seq to fetch the value from inforecord.
In a nutshell it works similar to ur automatic price condition P000.
hope it clears ur issue

Tax code update in inforecord.

Hi,
Inforecord was created automatically and the tax code was updated as in PO, By setting info update indicator in PO,
Now As per tax calculation was changed and new tax code was created. But every time when we enter the tax code in PO, It was not updating in inforecord.
we want to update the new tax code rather than by manual changing, Because this is not for one info record.
Could anybody suggest the best way to handle this.
Thanks in advance.

Tax management on Inforecord for Pipeline in USA

Dear experts,
For the pipeline management in USA I inserted the tax code U1 on the inforecord.
During the automatic consumption from Process order confirmation (Movement 261 P) the system calculates the cost without tax amount. For example Eletricity price for KWH=2 Quantity withdrawed= 100   Net value eletricity= 200. In account document the value for account GR/IR is 200
During the invoice (MRKO) the value for account GR/IR is 42, 40. Net value 40 + tax amount 2,40.
Is it possible add the tax amount to the net value also during the consumption?. How I can manage this issue?
Regards
Mario Forte
Edited by: Mario FORTE on Feb 16, 2010 10:47 AM

I have checked in my system and if the tax code in inforecord is non deducatable than tax value in getting added and the consumption is showed as net value + tax
eg info record have value 720 and tax code have 16 % non deductable (very important is the tahe condition type should have the cltky as NVV )
do check in FTXP the tax code u are using have the ACCt key as NVV
acco doc for 261 p or 201 p would be
169900     Accounts Payable - c     835,20-     EUR
400000     Consumptn, raw mat.1     835,20     EUR
720+ 16% tax = 835,20
can u check again in ur PO that the tax amount is added in the net value at the time of GR only and GRIR is having the value net price + tax
hope this helps

INFORECORD VALIDITY EXPIRES TO BE CONTROLED IN PO

Sir,
ply help me if the validity of inforecord expires in a po.i want to control in a po.
the issue is i have already made all fields grey in a po so price will automatically willbe taken from inforecord
but in case validity expires without intimation it will be taken from last po which i dont want...
ply help me for the solution
regards
amey

Hi,
As you mention validity period of info record get expire then system will pick the price from last PO ,it is standard procedure.
As po is time independent document, so it can't store the conditions for a valid time period.If system does not have the valid inforecord then system searches for the other documents like contract, quotation etc or schedule agreement depending on the document type settings and then referece it in the PO.If system didn't find anything then price will be populated from Last PO.
To avoid to do so :
Please extend the validity period of Info record.
You can create new condition record for the same.

Consignment Inforecord

Hi All,
I have certain doubts in Consignemnt inforecord as I am new to it.
Our scenario is like, we do GR for vendor consignment. And after the time of validity only, we need to issue it to company's own stock.
1. My doubt is , this validity period we need to maintain in inforecord, right?? In inforecord, in which field we maintain this validity period??
2. This validity period is nothing but an agreement with vendor right?
3. After this validity period, what will happen in the system?? if we didnt issue the materials to company's own stock even after validity period? will it automatically throw an error?? if it throws an error, in which situaion?
4. This validity period counts from the date of PO or from the date of GR??
Please reply.
Thanks in advance.
Rosh

If there's no valid price condition record for the date you consume / take the stock from vendor consignment, system will give message M7234:
Pipeline/consignment movement posted without value
Message no. M7234
Diagnosis
The system has determined a consignment/pipeline price of 0.00.
Possible reasons:
The system could not find any valid condition for the posting date in the consignment/pipeline info record.
A price of 0.00 was defined in the info record.
System Response
Depending on how the system is configured, the message can be either a warning or an error message.
A withdrawal from this consignment stock or from the pipeline will not create vendor liabilities. For materials with moving average price control, withdrawals are posted without value. For materials with standard price control, a price difference posting is carried out.
The message is also issued when materials are received into consignment stock, as the system must check whether a consignment price of zero is required.
Procedure
If you have authorization, check whether the conditions or the price has been defined correctly in the info record, if necessary. If there is a condition with a price other than zero, check whether the posting date of the movement lies within the condition's validity period.
Proceed
You can configure the message (e.g. as error or warning) in transaction OMCQ. Based on the message type you will be able or won't be able to execute the goods movement.

How to disable text can be adopted from inforecord (PO text)

Hi,
I have a issue in PO output, when I try to create a PO through ME21N transaction, the inforecord PO text is not printing in PO output.
It is printing only when I click on the option text can be adopted from inforecord (PO text).
This option is there in item details text tab.
Please let me know how to disable this option, because when I create PO automatically, it is not printing inforecord PO text.
Here we almost all PO's create through automatically, so we should not have any restriction to print this.
When we create PO, automatically the text should print.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Sandhya

Article UoM conversion differs from Inforecord UoM conversion

Hi experts,
While creating article through MM41(ALE), in basic data, we have maintained base UoM as KG and another UoM 1 CAR = 12 KG. The article is gettting created properly.
But the issue is the conversion for CAR is not reflecting correctly in the info record, it is 1 CAR = 1 KG in inforecord. In Purchasing view, We have maintained CAR as order unit. and variable order unit as 2 (active with own price).
The conversion in inforecord should be as same as the article UoM conversion. Can you please throw some light on why is this happening?
Many thanks,
Maniraj

Hi,
I have checked inforecord log, there is no change log.
If the UoM measure has not been transferred to inforecord, the ideal conversion should be 1 KG = 1 KG, but in my case its 1 CAR = 1 KG, the order unit is getting transferred, why not the conversion value (1 CAR = 12 KG).
When i create directly throught MM41, all the details in the Note applies, and everything is fine.
Thanks,
Maniraj

Some urgent issues

Hai I have issues on the following:-
1) The PVC materials in the Supplier's Invoice differs from our P.O rate, Price list for those materials is recd by our Pur.Dept from the supplier and then it is recd by accts dept and the rate in the Invoice is checked with the rate in the price list and if found correct, The RATE is MANUALLY entered while accounting the Invoice.Hw in SAP?
2) If there is any special excise duty in the Invoice(at the time of imports in procurement) it is entered Manually.
3) For the Excisable Invoices If Cenvat Credit not taken,the system showsa message" CREDIT NOT TAKEN".Is this done? hw?I think so some validation is created for capturing excise invoices.Means at the time of MIGO if excise invoice is not captured thne system should prompt the user that excie invoice not captured"CENVAt Not Taken".
4)Suppose there is a price variation in po and invoicewhat we have to do?for the materials like copper and other materials which have variation in prices day to day?Hw to tackle this scenario at the time of MM integration.
Regards
Raghavendra.M
SAP-Practice

SAP maintains inforecord (ME13) with reference to the supplier and the material. When a new PO is created, the rates automatically flow from the inforecord. If the rates are revised in the PO, the same gets reflected back in the inforecord.
Now when the invoice is recieved from the supplier it is recorded through invoice verification process. At that time if the invoice amout variance is beyond the set tolerance limit, you can still account the invoice, but the invoice gets blocked for payment. This needs appropriate release procedure to be followed subsequently.
Whatever is recoreded in SAP needs to be appropriately supported by a physical document. If the rates are high, a debit memo may be raised on the supplier, who in turn when accepted gives a credit memo.
