Manage Purchase requisitions

hi
To manage Purchase requisitions and to effect a stock transfer from DC (texas) to customer location (florida) what are the config setting I do in SNP
That is florida customer is purchasing directly from texas.
Using /SAPAPO/TL I can create a transportation lane.using source and destination fileds.that much I know ,what should I do in SNP1 and SNP2 tab in MAT1.? And what should I do in product location screen ,there I find a procurement tab there ..what config should I do there.if you have tried a similar SNP task before please share with me.I will try at my end according to my scenario.basically a stock transfer should be effected from texas to florida for a price.that is the crux of the matter
thnaks

that is i am using SNP hiuristics ...rite...now when i run SNP hiuristics it should create a procurement type of category stock transfer...and that stock transfer has to moved to a location at lower cost (cost settting has already been made by previous implementor...now it is a re-implementation project) in the SNP hiuristics screen we have one tab called "network " the client says once i press that SNP hiuristic network label ....ST should occur automatically...ie there should be zero manual intervention ..all automatic...once MC90 release happens to SNP..SNP hiuristic should take care of everything....demand is FC demand and customer demand .....SNP should handle customer demand seperately and FC demand seperately....i agree my question is broad..it is best you please suggest some links that carries screen shots....that would be a grt help to me mani

Agreement Field in Purchase Requisition

Hi Gurus,
The agreement field under source of supply tab in the purchase requisition is auto populated whenever there is a existing contract with the same material group details as the purchase requisition. May i know is there any config that could prevent the auto-populate of the agreement field. My purchase requisition was auto-created in the background through SRM. Whenever my purchaser opens the purchase requisition, this purchase requisition's agreement field is auto-populated. Any way to prevent this from happening?
Regards,
Wilson

Purchase requisition is not being displayed in FM area, CJIA

Hi
Project cash management is activated in our system, when creating purchase requisition from project builder with account assignment 'Q' system does not generating any document in FM area (CJIA). Contradicting to this, system generating document in FM area when creating purchase requisition through ME51N transaction with account assignment Q and setting project WBS to account assignment object.
Later, comparing both purchase requisitions using ME5J, field committed item showing different values (default layout do not display this field, need to added from change layout settings). Can any one help us to find the settings which derives the committed item field in purchase requisition?
Screen shots are attached for detailed understanding.
Thanks

Sanjeev,
In EBAN table both records are present with special stock indicator Q. But these documents are not available in second table COOI.
In customizing, KOAB for order category 20 (network) don't have indicator commitment management, whereas different order category having this indicator. Possibly, this would be causing the issue?? if so please help us in this direction. One more point that component with item category L (non-stock) are displayed in CJIA report.
Checked OPSV and found both the check boxes are ticked for order category 20.
Thanks

Release strategy for purchase requisition does not kick in

Hi Gurus!
I've been struggling with this issue for some weeks now.
I have set up the release strategy configuration for purchase requisitions with classifications.
However, if I create a purchase requisition the release functionality is not taken into account by the system.
See below some more information regarding my configuration:
1. I've created a new characteristic "REL_PR_GROUP". Status: released, Multiple values, Number of Chars 3, 7 values (TR1, TR2, TR3....TR7), Table name: CEBAN, Field name: EKGRP, Procedure for value assignment set to not ready for input.
2. I've created a new class: "REL_PR_ANPC". Class type 032, Status: released, Same classification: do not check, Char: "REL_PR_GROUP"
3. I have one release group "T1", Rel. object 1, OverReqRel is marked, Class: "REL_PR_ANPC"
4. I have 5 release codes. Grp: T1, Code: 01....05
5. I have 2 release indicators:
"R = Released", Rel. for ordering is marked, Changeabil: 4, Value chgs. 100,0
"X = Blocked", Changeabil: 4, Value chgs. 100,0
6. I have 1 release strategy:
"T1 with Grp T1"
- one release group, 01 Manager
- release prerequisites not applicable because of only one release group
- release status, nothing marked = blocked, 01 marked = released
- classification, purchasing group is TR1 or TR2 or TR3 or TR4 or TR5 or TR6 or TR7
I intentionally kept the configuration as simple as possible so I can try to get it working first.
Now if I create a purchase requisition for an item with release group T1, I would expect the release strategy to be activated. However, this is not the case. I don't see the "release status" tab in the PR, and if I try to relase via ME54 the system says the PR is not relevant for release.
Could you please assist in getting this working?

Hi,
Have you checked in CL30/CL30N if your release strategy is derived successfully?
See section 3 of Note 365604. A small section of it:
You can use transaction CL30 search for an object using the data
of the purchase requisition/purchase order. Here, it is important
that the object search determines exactly one strategy. If this
is not the case, this indicates that there are overlapping
strategies in the system or that the release strategies in
Customizing do not correspond with those from transaction CL24.
See the previous point. If the object search returns more than
one result, the system subsequently determines an incorrect
release strategy or no release strategy at all.
If it is derived successfully, next, check the user exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_001 as per Note 371667:
The following assignment statement has to exist within activated SAP
enhancements M06B0002 (include zxm06u13) and M06B0005 (include zxm06u31)
for purchase requisitions:
E_CEBAN = I_CEBAN.

How to copy sales order item text in to purchase requisition

Hi Experts,
We enter text for the sales order items in the sales order item details.
we have done settings for the purchase requision to copy text from sales order into purchase requisition and this works for purchase requisitions automatically created from sales order.
we need to get text from sales order to be copied in purchase requisitions which are created by converting the planned order.
we have tried SPRO settings SPRO->Materials Management>purchasing--->text for purchase requisition.
but this settings does not works for Pur Req. created by converting the planned order.
is this because planned order does not have segment for text like sales order and purchase requisition?
Please let me know if it is possible through standard SAP or with the lease development, any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Anand

Hi Rajesha,
Thanks for your reply, some of the items in sales order are procured externally by us and our customer maintains text related to price and specification in the item details of the sales order, MRP creates planned order for these materials and these planned orders are always converted in pur requisition, we want that text from the sales order item details should be copied in to the purchase requisitions converted from planned orders.
is there any user exit which can be called at the time of saving a purchase req or user exit for converting planned order in to pur req.?
if there is any such exit available, then I think I can read the pegged requirement of the planned order where sales order item will be found then read the text in the item then copy this text in pur req then save pur req may work.
but this will be a bulky development, please let me know if we can shorten the development.
Thanks again
Anand

PO creation with reference to Purchase Requisition

Hello,
Is anyone aware of a control in SAP that allows for a warning message when you create one or more PO's form the same requisition and the total quantity on the PO(s) is over the quantity on the original purchase requisition?
Also can BAPI be used to check the same?
For example if I am creating PO using BAPI_PO_CREATE1 with reference to Requisition created.
Can I check for errors using BAPI for PO creation in TESTRUN mode for quantity exceeded, different REQ types mixed in one PO and delivery date in PO match REQ?
Any thoughts here would be appreciated.

Create purchasing requisition or purchase order from service order

Hello experts,
we are facing the following problem:
We are implementing Customer Service module and out of the notification we create a service order. In the service order (components tab) the technician declares the spare parts he has to order from the vendor. We do not keep stock of the spare parts so all of them have to be ordered from the vendors.
We have managed so far to create a reservation for the stock material and a purchase requisition for the non-stock materials of the service order according to the standard sap documentation. What we need is to create a purchase requisition or a purchase order for the stock items using standard logic.
Thanks
George

Purchase requisition creation (STO) from Sales order

Hi Gurus,
Read the following scenario:
Sales order is created with delivery plant A. No stock on plant A.
Purchase requisition is created from plant B to plant A (intra-company flow or stock transfer order).
Problem is that the purchase requisition needs a price. It is not logical because intra-company flow (stock transfer in same company flow) is like a stock transfer without purchasing. So in my mind, I don't have to maintain price.
Also if I use ME27 to create manually STO between both plants, price is not asked.
Other question is: is it possible to create directly a purchase order when sales order creation (and not purchase requisition, newt convert into PO)?
Many thanks.
Stéphane

Hi Stéphane Vituret, Did you manage to find a solution for this. I have a similar problem as well.
Please find the scenario below.
Cusotmer places order of Mat-XX to Company A. The Company A creates PO to Company B. Company B delivers to Company A and then invoices Company A. Company A receives the goods into own stocks. Now the Company A delivers to the customer from its own stocks and then invoices Customer.
I decide to go ahead with the Individual Purchase order solution and since the Company A is buying from Comapny B, I decided to integrate the Cross Company STO flow in the procurement part. Hence the flow in SAP is like;
Cusotmer placese order to Company A
Comapny A creates a Individual Purchase order type Sales order. So the Item category is TAB.
This sales order generates a PR. PR is conveted into a CC_STO as thenvendor is Plant B in this case . Now this STO appears in the delivery due list of plant B.
Now I genreate the delivery to move stocks from plant B(of co.cd B) to Plant A(of co.cd A).
Here is the problem. I am not able to do PGI as the system checks for "sales order" stock at plant B and throws error
"Sales order stock 36637 000010 does not exist". This should not be the case as the stocks should get attached to the sales order only when recieved into Plant A. Hence system should not check for "sales order stock" at plantB while trying to deliver from Plant B to Plant A.
Lets take a normal IPO scenario.
CusotmerA places order of Mat-A to Company A. This sales order generates a PR. The Company A converts the PR into a std.PO to external vendor. The PO from the sales order will have a account assignment "M- Ind. cust. w/o KD-CO". The stocks will be received into Plant with spl indicator "E" while GR (MIGO). Now the system ensures that this stock can only be delivered against the particular sales order. Thus the stock procured for the customerA is delivered to customerA and not consumed by anybody else. In this case there is only one delivery involved, in SAP, which is 601 mvmt type from the Plant A.
However if the vendor becomes another Plant (Plant B) belonging to another company code then there are two deliveries involved in the SAP system one with mvmt type 643, from Plant B to Pant A, and the second with 601 from Plant A to the customer. Hence the system should check if the stocks are attached with a spl indicator only during the second delivery of 601 mvmt type. I am facing a problem because the system does it for the first delivery itself. If you know the answer please do let me know. I really appreciate it. Thanks a lot in advance.

MRP is not generating purchase requisitions consistently for MRP type VB

Issue: When executing consumption based MRP in ECC 6.0 using the following parameters; purchase requisitions are not created for all material with stocks below max stock levels. In other words requisitions are created incase of some materials and requisitions are not created for others.
u2022     MRP type VB ( manual reorder point) with reorder point qty
u2022     Lot size HB with Max stock level
u2022     Procurement type F (external procurement).
Additional info: Some of these materials are batch managed and results are inconsistence whether it is batch managed or not.
Regards
Sai

I checked that and planning file entry is created.
Example 1: MRP is not working.
MRP type = VB
Lot size =HB
Procurement type= F
Material # = 1200045
Reorder point =30
Max stock level = 300
Available qty = 139
No PRs are existing before MRP.
MRP is expected to create PR for qty 161 (300-139= 161)
Example 2 : MRP is working.
MRP type = VB
Lot size =HB
Procurement type= F
Material # = 1200052
Reorder point =100
Max stock level = 1000
Available qty = 87
MRP created PR qty of 913 and results are as expected.
MRP is expected to create PR for qty 161 (1000-87= 913
NOTE: I am directly creating Purchase requisitions by selecting creation Purchase Requisitions Indicator =1 during MD01/MD02 trxs . Not creating any planned orders.

Workflow for MM purchase Requisition steps required

Dear all,
        I am trying to configure purchase requisition Workflow.
        I am working with Work flow, WS 00000038
        I have assigned agents to TS 20000162
        Now how to proceed further, do i need to maintain some more settings
        or i should try to test system.
        Regards,
        Gaurav sood

Under the assumption that things have not changed much since 4.70, here's quick introduction:
The workflow is started only when a relevant release strategy is found, so customizing of release strategies is a very important (first) step here.
In the Implementation Guide you find the customizing in the following path:
Materials Management
-- Purchasing
-- -- Purchase Requisition
-- -- -- Release Procedure
-- -- -- -- Procedure with Classification
Only the procedures with classification are relevant if you want to use workflow to notify about requisitions waiting for release.
First you must set up a classification class if that has not already been done. Derive your characteristics from the structure CEBAN. The online help is not too bad, I had never set up classifications before and managed to get it working.
If you need data that are not available in CEBAN, or you want to modify them for the purpose of determining the release strategy there is an enhancement you can implement, and there are customer fields you can use. The enhancement definition's name is M06B0002.
As an example of what you can do, I have used it to set the company code in one of the customer fields, and to change the account assignment type. However, whether you need this enhancement or not depends strongly on what data you use to determine your release procedures (a step in customizing you will get to later).
When that is done you define release groups and release codes. Release codes are defined within each release group. Whether you should use one group or several groups is often a matter of choice.
I myself prefer using several groups even if I don't have to, so long as it doesn't lead to having to define duplicate release strategies (which you will soon get to). So, if there is some characteristic that clearly separates your release strategies, e.g. the highest amount that does NOT require release etc, you can define one group for each value (group) of this characteristic.
For instance, if some company codes require release for everything worth more than 100EUR while the default is to require release from 10.000EUR you could create to release groups. None of your release strategies will be duplicates since the value from which release is required will be different and you thus need to have that as a characteristic.
You then check that the set-up of release indicators is OK, and then you are ready to start defining the strategies. Release stragies are defined within each release group, and use one or more release codes (two or more release indicators).
It is fairly self-explanatory once you get into the screens. The thing to be observant about is to not define overlapping strategies, as this will prevent the solution from working.
When you are done, and have tested the solution in DEV it is time to transport it to the QA system. That's when I got a rather unpleasant surprise. The classification data are not transported, so both the characteristics and class, as well as the classification data in each release strategy had to be redefined. And in roughly two hours I have to do it again in production.
It is possible to transport classification information, it is described in SAP OSS Notes (different solutions for different versions).

Passing text information from sales order to purchase requisition

Hi
My requirement is in third party processing. I want to pass line time text in sales order to the purchase requisition created in a third party processing.
My question : is it possible in standard config setting?
If not, Is there any user exit to address this
please send us valuable inputs
Thanks
Sriram.

Dear Sriram,
Try this,
Go through this IMG path do the required settings
SPRO>IMG>Material Management>Purchasing>Purchase Requisition-->Texts for Purchase Requisitions.
-->Define Text Types here you can define the Text type same as sales order Text type for Purchage requesition .
-->Define Copying Rules -->Here you select the Text type(Newly defined) to which text type you want to copy the sales order text then click on Text Linkage -->New Entries in the New entries screen you enter
Sequence
Source Object as Sales order
Source Text
Fix as blank -Text automatically adopted in target object
Finally save the settings.
Now you create third party sales order system will copy the sales order text to the Purchase requesition
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Copy text from PM order to Purchase Requisition

Hello
In our current set-up we have configured so that PM Order component item text is copied to requisition item text.
But we also have a need to fill in requisition item note directly from the PM Order.
We see that there is a possibility to copy transaction text from PM order.
What is transaction text?
Any other proposals?
Best regards
Tom

Greetings Tom Saga,
The Transaction text is in fact the Operation Long Text that may be copied to the PR Item-level text. To have it automatically copied, in SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Requsition > Texts for Purchase Requisitions > Define Copying Rules
Please define for the Text Type "Item text" the Text Linkage to Source Object "Order/network" and Source Text "Transaction text". Then the externally processed Operation Long Text will automatically be copied to the PR Item Text
Greetings Pushpa,
Apologies for attaching to an old thread, but could you elaborate on copying the Work Order Header Long Text into a PR Long Text? I have a requirement to copy into the PR Header Note, but can't find the Text types at the header level in the copying rules. Is that possible without development?
