Pur req line item wise block

Hi Gurus,
Is there a way to achieve this specific scenario. Let us say we have five line items on the Pur req.We have setup our approval system in such a way that if the dollar amount is $1000 or more then only the release startegy kicks off. Below 1000 there is no release strategy. So now out of the 5 lines lets say we have the first four line items less than 1000 and the fifth line item is $2000. we want to put a block on the PR so that unless the 5th line item gets approved, the remaining 4 line items which are less than 1000 should not be converted to a PO. How can this be achieved?
Thanks
ANusha

hi,
> Make settings for charatceristics in such a way that the total value should not be greater or equal to 1000$...Now when you set up this, system will auto check the PR doc...and as the avg. for all item will be imbalanced due to one line item, it'll not release the whole PR doc...
> But if you wanna check per item wise and even then don't wanna release the other items, then give the auorisation to the special person who can check the document for all item and when ok then will release it...

Credit Check while creation of Sales Order for Item Category Purchase Req

Hi Experts,
We are creating Sales Order using an Order Type ABCD for a material 1000. While creating Sales Order, we use Item categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP and ZOBO).
Credit Check settings are there at Order Type ABCD as well as all the Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP and ZOBO). We are trying to test a scenario where a customer does not have enough credit limit while creating a sales order.
When we create a sales order for Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP), credit check fails because our customer does not have enough credit limit, so that Sales Order gets created and Delivery does not get created (This is what we want), then we go into VKM1 manually and relase the sales order and then if we go to VA02 and check the status of the Sales Order, it says sales order status is complete. My Sales Team is saying here also Purchase Requisition is getting created.
When we create a sales order for Item category ZOBO, it is going into Purchase Requisition screen. Once we give another plant in the create purchase requisition screen and save it we are getting a message that cannot create Purchase Requisiton because of Credit Block.
The settings were same for all the Item categories.
1) What made difference to complete Purchase Requisition for Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP) and not for Item Category ZOBO when my customer is not having enough credit Limit.
2) Why Purchase Requisition screen is not coming for us when we create an Sales Order for Item Categories (ZOVD, ZOVB,ZOST,ZOVP). We only get Create Purchase Requisiton Screen for Item Category ZOBO.

Hi,

No PReq Item Category for 3rd Party Order

Hello,
I am trying to set up the 3rd party process but having a problem with the item category in the generated purchase requisition.
I know that my sales order item has a schedule line category of CS. This should create a purchase requisition item with an item category of 5.
However, my requisition item is getting " ". I have checked the config and it looks ok.
Does anybody have any idea why the item category in my schedule line is not being picked up? The requisition item is getting the correct account assignment category.

Stuart, I don't have an answer to your question but am wondering if you could help me... I too am trying to set up 3rd party ordering.
Did you set up your material as a non-inventoried (DEIN) material? How did you handle the account assignment cat value in the purchase req? Mine is defaulting to "X"... do I have the option to change that?
Thanks in advance,
Deirdre

Set res/PR indicator in PM refurb order based on item category

Hi,
We are loading components of a refurbishment order from the bill of material of the header material. Actually the operations and components are defined in a general maintenance task list and the task list is included in the order. The components have both item categories L (stock item), E (also stock item) and Z (non-stock item). We have set the res/PR indicator as 'Immediately' in SPRO (Define Change Docs, Collective Purc. Req. Indicator, Operation no. interval) for that refurbishment order type.
Our requirement is that we want to set the Res/PR indicator as 'Immediately' for components with item category L and 'Never' for components with item category E in the general data of the individual component. We found one enhancement point where this can be done but this does not seem to work. How can we implement this functionality?
This is required as client wants to selectively pick components with item category E from warehouse, as part of closed loop refurbishment process where the components are inspected and replaced with working components (item cat E) from the warehouse. If we implement the above functionality then we can uncheck the movement allowed indicator in the component general data for those components with item category E which are not required to be picked.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Abhijit

Abhijit,
I understand that they may not be BULK Material,But i was requesting to see if you consider treating the items with "E" item category like bulk materials.
Have a look at form AUDISP_FROM_NO_DISP in program LCOMKFZV,You should be able use the implicit enhancement functionality to adjust the reservation indicator based on the item category, at the end of the form.As with any implicit enhancement functionality, make sure to test this thoroughly and document the same properly.

Item Category N (non-stock item) in BOM creation - Preq Generation

Hi All
I have a material component that is planned in APO and not in ECC6. We would like to keep the one BOM for the finished good. Problem is that when we perform the backflush in ECC6, the system wants to backflush the material and causes errors due to missing stock.
So I assigned the material as a non stock item in the BOM but the system will auto generate a purchase requisitions for Non stock bom components (item category N) when the process order is created. It is possible to turn off the auto creation of the purchase req for non stock bom components?
I have tried the following:
- Explosion type in item data, created new key with 'Switch off planning' indicator set in system configuration
- created new 'Z' item category with inventory management de-selected
Both approaches causes system error: Puchase data of material in not maintained
I also tried leaving as a stock item with the bulk material indicator selected in the item data. This does not work as the cif will then exclude the component when data is transferred to APO
Funny enough, the system does not generate a purchase req for non stock bom items when using Repetitive Manufacturing. Any help will be greatly appreciated
kind regards
Grant brockelbank

Hello Vivek
Thank you for your response
The item is a non stock item. I do not want this item to be backflushed at all. This can be achieved using the 'N' non stock item category but the problem is that the system will attempt to generate a purchase requisition when the process order is created.
I do not want the system to generate a purchase req in ECC6 as this item is a planning material that is planned in APO (used for medium to long term planning in a simulation version). We are hoping to use the one Bom for ECC6 and APO planning. The generation of the purchase reqs is a bit of a waste as we will never convert them and there is potential to cause issues for purchasing.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks again for your help
kind regards

MRP background job generating Plnd Ord instead of Pur Req

Hi Gurus,
There is a variant created for background job of MRP, which is running once in a day. In this varaint, I have control parameters set in such a way in that , it should create purchase requisition ( Purchase requisitions in opening period = 3 ) . But its creating planned order only.
When I am running in foreground, it is generating Pur Req as expected but not generating Pur Req when running in background.
Please help me creating purchase requisitions instead of planned order.
Regards,
Om
Edited by: Om.P.Singh on Nov 24, 2011 5:12 PM

Dear Om.P.Singh,
As per your settings (Setting value 3 for Create Purchase Req paremeter) it will create only planned orders for the externally
procured items.
If you have set the value as 1 then it creates only purchase req's for all the externally procured materials.
If you have set the value as 2,then it creates PR in the opening period(mentioned in the scheduling margin key) and planned
orders for the remaining period.
This parameter setting works only for the externally procured items.
Check and revert back.

Sales Order - Using Item Category "TAB Individual PO" / convert PReq to PO

All,
I am configuring for the first time utilizing Sales Document Item category "TAB" - Individual Purchase Order. I have a few questions:
Is there a best practice/baseline package configuration guide specific for this process? I have found the 'third party' baseline package J54, but nothing so far on "individual purchase order from sales order'.
During Purchase Order Create from the Purchase Req. is there a way to default Purchase Order Type "UB" stock transfer from the Purchase Requisition type NB? Currently in my system, the PO type defaulting is NB and it needs to be UB. I thought this could be done based on the schedule line "CB" configuration (spro/SD/Sales/Sales Docs/Schedule Lines/Define Schedule Lines), changing the 'item category' to 7 stock transfer. Then, for the configuration setting spro/MM/Purchasig/Purchase Req/ Define Document Types, this would carry into the mapping for purchase requisition type NB/item category stock transfer to purchase order type UB/item category stock transfer. However, when I set '7' on the schedule line CB, I then receive a hard error when creating my purchase req to set the supplying plant. I have more than one supplying plant, so I'm not sure if setting the '7' for schedule line CB is the right setting for this process. From what I've been able to find for documentation, the item category of the schedule line should be set to '0' standard. My plan is to convert the PReq's into PO's in background, but I need to default the correct PO Type. Any help would be useful.

Sandra Miner

Item Category in Stock transfer requisiton.

Hi,
I have created an stock trnasfer requisition thrrough MRP.
Even though supplying plant belongs to Different compnay code, purchase req. is created with Item category U.
is there any setting which triggeres item category U in PR when created through MRP.
No special procurement key assigned in material master and procurement type is F
When i try to create STR manually, it is created with correct item category.
We have same document type for both intercompany purchase and intracompany transfer.

Hi akkshaya,
In standard system, for both intra and inter company STOs, item category is U, with NB doc types of requisitions. You are saying that no special proc key is assigned on MM so how is MRP creating these reqs? Check the creation indicator on the req to see who created the requisition.
Le me know if you would have any questions

Change Partners for item category - TAB

Hi All,
Why it is not possible to have different ship-to-party at item level for TAB orders.
For item category TAB, the partner functions is maintained as "T" which is "No item Partner". Can you help me understand why SAP has maintained like this.
Please provide me a quick response.

HI,
TAB item category is used for Make to Order senario, thats why its do not have Multiple Ship to party or Partner determination for Item category..
2nd Make to Order is a Order contaning Customer Specific requirements like ur preparing a proto type for customer requirement (Like new development).So they break down the sales order into diff -diff parts U know (we call it BOM) & we get the delivery date s & quanties for that Make to order from Production Order because here Sub items are related to main item like...
Computer ordered with entena....
In make to order system brekdown the req.into...
1Monitor
2 CPU
3. entena
4.TV card etc...But all these belongs to 1 single material (even though they are also a individual material)
thats why we dont have a provision of partner function for item category TAB....
I hope i am able to explain u.......Pls. ask me if nathing is not clear to you......
NOTE: You can always have a diff. Ship to Party at Header level.......

Item category doubts

Hi Everyone,
I would like to confirm the following understanding is correct, pls:
1. Transfer of Requirement is set in the SPRO for item category . But I could not find where is this setting, Kindly advise where to turn on this setting.
2. Item categories for BOM (main and sub-items) are configured the same way as normal items or materials, in SPRO.
Have a nice day...
John

hi
for TOR first check requirement class r assigned to requirement type
in req class switched on tor
if not activate in schedule line category relevant for tor
for BOM
We have to maintain material wt item category group ERLA
than go to vov 4 & maintain
main items ORERLA-+-= TAQ
Sub items ORNORM-+TAQ=TAP
TAQ = relevant for pricing
TAP=price not relevant,
check it out

Item Category field

Hello to everyone,
is it possible to hide non used values from Item Category field in a purchase requisition?
Regards

What do you want to do?
If you want to hide a Item category column than you can do but i don't understand the non used value of item category field.
to hide the item category column
spro-mm-purchaisng-PR- Define Screen Layout at Document Level
here select the filed selection for ME51n and/or ME52N and remove the selection of item category field than it will not be avalible for these transaciton.
but it is not advisable becuase you might need to create reqs with item category

Defaut Item Category 'U' coming in Purchase Requisition.

Hi,
I am trying to create a Stock PO from Purchase Requisition through MD04.
The purchase requisition has Item category "U" by default.
Hence, whenever I try to create a Stock PO it is giving an error. I can only create a STO for those purchase requisition.
Immediate help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Sonal Sase.

Dear
Create MRP group in OPPR , In the MRP group go External procurement option - Scheduling/document type - Mention your stock PO type in Doc Type SPO column.
Now assign these MRP group to the material master (raw materials) in MRP-1 view. Now you run the MRP, convert the purchase req. to Purchase order, system will prompt the correct stock PO type.

Item Category TAB recognise unrestricted stock

Folks,
we have item category TAB on our back to back sales orders and will create an individual pourchase order.
However, there are occassion when there is stock and we want the ATP check to consider and not necessarily create a purchase req.
is there any way to achieve this?
Or because TAB has Special stock indicator "E" type it is standard SAP and will always not consider stock?
Thanks

Hi Milton,
Normally in such scenario the process followed is different.
When you have stock of the material with you then its no longer a individual requirement. It will be a normal sales process. For that you have to have item category TAN.
so, during sales order creation you have 'tan' and if availablity check runs and finds stock not available, then the user will manually change the item category to 'TAB'. and then the individual requirement will start.
For this the item category TAB should be assigned at the 'manual' column in Item cat determination
This is normal std process.
In standard TAB is used for materials with General item category ' BANC'. for such material, there is not availablity check activated, so it wont look at stock.
IF this does not answer your question, then give more detail about your business scenario.
Regards
Jobi
