Limit items in SC

Hi,
What are limit items and can we create a shopping cart for limit item in SRM.
I guess Po can be created for the same.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Manu

Hi,
Limit items are similar to blanket PO, we can create shopping cart with limit item and it will convert to the corresponding PO.
Limit items useful to procure low value items like small parts,office items etc
contains valid limit and predefined period.
shop with limit creates a different type of PO depending on 'confirmation and invoice ' or 'only invoice '
if u choose ' invoice only ' back end PO created with item category with 'B'
If u choose 'confirmation and invoice ' back end PO created wtith item category with 'D'
Limit PO has no quanity and no goods receipts.
Thanks

SRM 7.0 - Unconfirmed PO limit items not showing up when creating Invoice

Hi Guys,
For PO standard items, when creating an invoice and is unconfirmed, these items still show up in the invoice screen and the invoice gets created with the status 'Waiting for preceding document'. For unconfirmed limit items, these items do not show up at all in the creation of the invoice and displays an error. My question is how will I make the unconfirmed limit items scenario work just like the standard items scenario whereby instead of the unconfirmed limit items not showing up and generating an error, they will show up and have the invoice created with the status 'Waiting for preceding document'?
Thanks in advance!

Is this thread still valid? If not, please close the thread.

Unable to hide feilds for a limit item at PO level in SRM 7.0

Hi,
Currently we are working in SRM 7.0. extended classic scenario. While creating a limit item at PO level we are unable to control the custom feilds in general data tab.
We have created some custom fields. And we are trying to control (Visible,Enable & Required) these custom fields from IMG settings (Customer Metadata for item fields in Normal entries) for LIMIT items at PO Level. But we are unable to control.
Where this is working fine at Shopping cart level.
Can anybody help me in this regard.
Thanks.

Contract Release value is not updated with Limit item value

We have SRM 4.0 with ECS scenario.
Contract are created in SRM and replicated to ERP.
If we create PO with Service line and Limit line using contract in both of these line items, contract Release value is getting updated only with Service line item value.
But the contract Total value is the addition of Service and Limit value of PO.
Why Contract Release value is not getting updated with Limit item value. Please help as early as possible.

Hi Sandeep
Yes. there are various reasons .upon your contract incorrect status and linkage not establised / or more attachment in SRM GOA.
what type of contract are you using? GOA or CCTR
If it is GOA - which version of SRM and service pack ?are you in ?
If it is a GOA , BLAREL idoc might failed to post the release value in the SRM .
How contracts are created material / mat group ?
to fix or understand the issue, you need to recreate the issue.
what is the ERROR in BLAREL in SRM idoc monitoring ?

Deleting Limit Items on PO even though follow on documents exist

Dear SRM Experts
I am hoping someone can explain the below behaviour:
Where PO's have follows on documents i.e. confirmation and /or invoice you cannot delete PO's items on a PO. This makes sense.
However we also have PO's with Limit items(created via limit type shopping carts) and even though the PO's have been confirmed and invoiced we can still delete the items on the PO. Is this standard behavior or a bug?
Why then can you not delete normal items but can delete limit type items where follow on documents have been posted for a PO?
Thanks
Nishad.

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?
Incase of Limit Items, it is a bug.
We have raised a similar issue with SAP some time back and still waiting for SAP to get back on this.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

Thanks

BAPI_PO_CREATE1 to create PO with limit item (item category = B)

Hello,
I want to create a PO with a limit item (category = B). What are the important parameters/tables which have to be filled.
Currently I'm filling the following:
POHEADER + POHEADERX
POITEM + POITEMX
POSCHEDULE + POSCHEDULEX
POACCOUNT + POACCOUNTX
POSRVACCESVALUES
POLIMITS
The package number in the item matches with the one which is used in POSRVACCESSVALUES and POLIMITS. When I debugg the function module everything looks fine to me and a PO is also created BUT it does not contain any item with category = B.
Does anyone of you have an idea what is missing?
Kind regards,
Thomas

Goods Recipts for Limit item SC

Hi,
When we create shopping cart with limit item and choose the "confirmation and invoice option" during the Limit SC creation the backend PO is created with item category 'D'. The service PO is created, but there is no data updated in service tab at the item level, there is only line item created in item overview with the expected value as the net price and Qty as 1 PU. But without the line item in service tab at the item level we cannot do the planned service entry sheet.
Now with the current scenario when i try to do the confirmation in EBP, i have add description, QTY and value details and then i am able to post the document.The staus shows as document posted in backend but when i click to view the document, there is no document to be displalyed. The confirmation data is not getting updated in the follow on documents or in the purchase order history in R/3.
In R/3 i am not able to enter the service entry sheet for the corresponding PO, it says no line items in the PO. Thats because there is no line item in the service tab. I am not able to post the invoice since the GR based IV is checked in PO.
Now my question is whether this is the standard behaviour, cant we do service entry sheet for these kind of PO. How to get the line item detail in the service tab in item level. What is the advantage of this function in SRM if we cannot post service entry sheet.
Please suggest how to overcome this issue.
Regards
GGL

JPY Currency issue in SRM 5 Limit Items

Hi
We are having an issue JPY Currency issue in SRM Limit Items (550 SP 13).
Basically the currencies like JPY, KWR where there are no decimals causes value to be multiplied by 100.
There are lot of notes and threads on JPY currency issues.
But I have not found one that helps fix SRM Limit Items.
Let me know if there is a note or thread that talks about it.
We are on SRM 550 SP 13.
Thank You

Default Document Ctrl when creating limit item

Hi!
When I create a limit item using "Process purchase order" the check box "Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt" in Follow-on document is checked by default when I have entered the Vendor. Is there a way so that only the check box "Invoice Expected" is checked by default?
Using Extended Classic and SRM 550
Sincerely
Anders Öhrling

Hi. Not 100% sure this will all work, but when you press the button to "add a limit item" a certain SY-UCOMM will be set, "ITMSEL_LIMIT".
You could use the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI to set the flag only when SY-UCOMM = ITMSEL_LIMIT.
This way it should set it as default for new items but not change it for old items.

Dave.

Invoice not updated for Service and limit items

Hi All,
For service and limit we are not able to see the invoice document in the "Related Documents" tab in the Purchase order.
For material I am able to find the entry in the tab but the invoice statistics data is not getting updated for service POu2019s and also for limit item POu2019s.
Found a note for the same : 1462644 - Empty statistics in PO in case of Extended Classic Scenario but it works only for material line items only.
Please let me know if any config change need to be made else if there is any SAP note that would resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Catherine
