Sales Order - Using Item Category 'TAB' - Individual Purchase Order

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 configuration guide specific for this process? I have found the 'third party' document/best practice, but nothing so far on "individual purchase order from sales order'.
Is there a way to default Purchase Order Type "UB" stock transfer from the Purchase Requisition NB? I thought this could be done based on the schedule line "CB" configuration, changing the 'item category' to 7 stock transfer, then 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' 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.
When I perform the post Goods Issue 601 of Special Stock "E" - to the customer (once the stock has been received into the right plant), the system is not creating an Accounting/FI Document to relieve the inventory and charge cost of goods sold. I have reviewed automatic account assignment entries and these appear correct for 601 E. Are there special settings for special stock "E" that I need to consider.
If you cannot answer all of these questions, but can answer one of them, I am most interested in teh last question above.
Regards,
Sandra Miner

Hi Reazuddin,
What I don't understand is why:
if I don't create PO --> I can create Outobund Delivery in Individual Purchase Order but if I create PO (not MIGO) I cannot create OBD in IPO. (Note: in both cases I agree PGI is not possible)
The flowchart is: Sale Order (IPO) --> Purchase Requisition --> Purchase Order (PO) --> MIGO (inbound delivery) --> MIRO (Vendor invoice verification) --> Outbound delivery ( delivery [OBD] + picking + posting[PGI]) --> Sales Invoice
As per your comments:
System will not stop you to create delivery, though you customize delivery item cat: as Check min qtty "0" - error message. because system checks for PGI qtty, but not the delivery qtty.
But then in the case I create Sale order (IPO) + PO (without MIGO) --> the system should not stop me executing Outbound Delivery. It should stop me only if I execute Posting goods issue. But actually in this case, the system is stopping me at outbound delivery.
I agree with Posting Goods Issue behaviour. It is logical in the following cases:
Only Sale order (IPO) created --> PGI is not possible
Sale Order (IPO) created + PO created --> PGI is not possible
Sale Order (IPO) created + PO created + MIGO executed (inbound) --> PGI is possible.
Thank you very much for your feedback.

Item category control the release strategy?

Hi,
Currently the purchase of a material needs to be released.
My issue is that as soon as I change the item category in the sales order,
the material does not need to be released.
How does item category control the release strategy?
Sincerely,
Ketan

Hi Ketan,
You can set item category in the characteristic of a release strategy.
In your case, I guess the item category characteristic is already created. So you can just add the desire value into the characteristic.
Go to SPRO > IMG > Material Management > Purchasing > Purchase Requisition > Release Procedure > Procedure With Classification > Set Up Procedure With Classification > Release Strategies
Select the related release strategy, double click to view the detail. You will see there are 4 buttons in the bottom of the screen. Choose 'Classification' and enter you value of item category.
Thanks & regards,

Change Item Quantity in the Billing Document ( Proforma Invoice )

Hi,
There is a requirement from the client to change the quantity at item level in the billing document ( Order based Proforma Invoice ) after it is saved.
As SAP does not allow to change in the VF02 transaction, Please let me how to change quantity at the item level of the billing document.
Please let us know if we need to use any user exit or any other system modification.
Regards
V R Reddy

Hi Venkat Rama Reddy
First of all Welcome to SDN forum
Now coming to your query , your requirement cannot be fulfilled as standard SAP doesn't .Because ,First of all at billing level you cant change the item quantity , then in VF02 it is not possible.But if your clients requirement is to change the item quantity in VF02 , then first of all do VF11->VL09->VL02N and here you can change the picking quantity and then do the billing ,as once if you change the picking quantity then at billing item level also the item quantity will change
Check with the following user-exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE. Here with the help of the Technical consultant include the requirement that after saving the billing document we can change the item quantity
But it is not suggestible to change the item quantity at billing level . As once you save the billing document , an accounting document will be getting created.

Srinath

Set as default value the Item Category in the Maintenance Order

Hello everyone,
We are trying to find a user exit in order to set as default value the item category in the Maintenance Order once the Material has been introduced (Tag Components).
SAP Customizing let the user set the Item Category automatically per Material Type, but we need to set different Item Categories to materials belonging to the same material type.
We would really appreciate any help relating this issue.
Thank you very much,
Víctor Liedo

Dear Paul,
Thank you very much for your response.
I had already tried customizing mentioned by Pithan, but it did not work because we need to set different Item Categories for Materials with same Material Type.
We have been searching for exits which may let us set Item Category in the Maintenance Order, but it does not seem to be possible.
What you say about adding some custom validation through user exit, not to set item category as default value, but to check if the one entered is valid, sounds the best way of achieving our commitments.
I have tried to look for CNEX0037 & CNEX0038, by using transactions SE37 and SE38, search for programs and functions modules, but it did not work. Could you please tell us what kind of objects are?
Thank you very much in advance.

"elecronic signature" in the purchasing document

hi
I want to add "elecronic signature" in the purchasing document
what are the conf steps .......or how can I do this

Sara

Hi
R u speaking of disgital signatures
To use a digital signature in R/3, you must install an external security
product which is certified by SAP for the SSF interface ("Secure Store &
Forward").
1. For the digital signature, you can use an external security product
    that is certified by SAP for the SSF interface. A list of the
    certified security products is available under
    "http://service.sap.com", "Quick Links", "/security", "Certified
    Security Partners", "Partner for secure store and forward, digital
    signatures (SSF)"
2. You will also find the installation guideline for SSF on the same
    page under
    "Security in Detail"   > "Secure Collaboration"   > "SSF User's
    Guide"

Item category determination during Purchase Requisition creation from APO

Im creating a SNP Purchase Requisition in APO and when it is published to R/3, a Purchase Requisition document is created in R/3.
When this PR is created in R/3, I want the Item Category to be determined based on the Material master Special Procurement Type. ( eg: Id like the Item category to be L if the Material master Special Procurement Type = 30 (Subcontracting) ). But by standard, this field is coming as Blank and this field could only be populated during the creation from APO.
I found a user exit ( CIFPUR02 : Enhancement of Purchase Order Interface (Inbound) ) on R/3 where I tried to populate the Item Category, but when I do this, all the purchase order related data is getting deleted and hence no PRs are getting created in R/3.
Could anyone please tell me if this could be resolved using configuration and if not any tips to do this technically would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Harsha

Hi Karun,
This is the code i'm using...
select single * from marc into lit_marc
where matnr = c_eban-matnr
and    werks = c_eban-werks.
append lit_marc.
read table lit_marc with key matnr = c_eban-matnr
                             werks = c_eban-werks
                             sobsl = 30.
if sy-subrc = 0.
c_eban-pstyp = '3'.
endif.
Here sobsl = 30 is the Special procurement type
But when i try to populate c_eban-pstyp = '3', during the creation of Purchase Requisitions in R/3, in the program SAPLEMPI -> LMEPIF01
this condition is encountered which deletes all the data in the tables that is used to create Purchase requisitions.
<i>* get rsnum in the case of subcontracting
      IF XEBAN-PSTYP EQ PSTYP-LOHN AND                      "RB240999
         EXITFLAG_ORDID IS INITIAL.                         "RB240999
refresh all component tables
        CALL FUNCTION 'ME_COMPONENTS_REFRESH'
             EXCEPTIONS
                  OTHERS = 1.</i>
Could you please suggest me anything to get around this.
Thanks,
Harsha

Urgent - How to change Item category for Open Purchase Order

Hi Team,
Lil bit tricky issue.
My client has asked us to change the existing Item Category values, Combinations, Category Set etc. Its been changed and uploaded successfully.
The question here is how we need to handle the category for Open Purchase Order. How to update the same.
Do we need to do manually or any other way ?
Please advice
Regarads,
John

Hi John,
This is reallly a tricky issue!
I guess you cannot change the category of an existing PO's.
This field will be greyed out once we save the form...there were no profiles/other setups to enable this field.
For all new PO's since you have changed the new category value that should not be a issue.
Lets wait for some of our colleuges opinion.
I guess PO cancel should be the final option if we dont hear any new work arounds.
Thanks

Batch Split Items appearing in the billing document

Dear Friends,
Batch determination is active in our system. In the delivery there are two main items. 10 and 20 and each has Batch split and the sub items are 90001 and 90002 respectively.
Now in the billing document there appears are four items with item nos and qty as follows.
item 10 qty 1 - main item having pricing etc
item 20 qty 0 - batch split item no qty n no pricing
item 30 qty 1 - main item having pricing etc
item 40 qty 0 - batch split item no qty n no pricing
The requirement is that there should not be any sub items with zero qty. Only main items to appear in the Billing document.
One important observation I would like to share with you is that in the delivery document both main items and it's sub items have item category as TAN.
Your help is appreciated.
Regards,
Vishi
Edited by: Vishi19 on Apr 27, 2009 2:48 PM

Dear US,
Thanks for replying.
What i would like to know here is if appearance of sub items with 0 qty n 0 price does not affect in the billing document then how come VPRS cost coming only in the item conditions of the sub items. I dont see the cost in the main items.
What I want to knlow here is that does in any way these sub items affect the billing document? i mean in the accounting or data flow to CO-PA or something like that..?

Vishi.

How to read the text from the item text of the purchase order

i want to extract the text which is maintained in the purchase order item text. i used the function module read_text but it reads only the header text. can anyone help.

u have to chek the following parameters
ID: this textid
language:language u maintained the text,this also important
   name: The no in which text-id is maintained
         Usually we make mistake here,the no is          combination of purchase order no and item no.
Example:420000210000010(Puchase orderno:4200002100 item no:00010)
    Object:it change based on the text-id so u can check it the document no.
    CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

              not_found               = 4

Want to change item category at the time of order creation

Hi Gurus,
Client require to implement individual PO scenario.
I was configured the same and working fine.
I am facing problem at the time of item category determination.
User using same material and order type and they are not ready to accept to create new order type.
Now My order type is OR and item category group is NORM and right now system determine item category TAN.
User not want to change manually at the time of order creation.
I have specific condition on which i want to apply this logic.
Now i want to determine TAB item category through some user exits or enhancement.
Can anyone suggest exact in which user exit or enhancement i have to change.
Thanks & Regards,
Chirag

1. Use TCode 0VVW for creating a Z Item Usage, say, ZPO1
2. Do an item Cat determination in VOV4, as
Sales Doc type
Item Cat Group
Usage
Item Category
OR -
NORM -
ZPO1 -
TAB
3. Maintain Customer Materials Info Record by using VD51.
In item screen for Cust-Mat combination maintain Item usage
