Mandatory fields during PO creation - but optional in the customizing

Hi all,
If i create or change a PO, some fields are mandatory (ex: plant, account assignment category, purchasing group). However, in the customizing, theses fields are optional. I checked the customizing in tcode OMF4/field selection keys NBF, AKTA, AKTH, ME21N, ME22N, PT0F (we use standard item category). In all these field selection keys, the fields are optional.
Does anyone have any idea?
Thanks for your help.
Regards

The above mentioned by Manish is the correct way to check.
But sometimes it happens that you have copied some document type and created your own, then also changing in your new document type will not change the field setting. You have to change the setting in SAP default document type then only changes is reflected.
Eg: In PR document type which is generated from order standard SAP does not allow you to change Purchasing group, even if you copy this document type and create your own then also it will not allow. You have to change in the standard then only its results are reflected on the screen.
I hope this will help you
Enjoyyyyyyyyyyy

Hi Anis,
In the Account group , if you check the one-time customer then while creating the sales order itself it will appear to change the address for that customer.
By the time you can enter your required fields.
I think you mentioned as

How to make mandatory field in f-02 to optional field

hi. SAP Gurus
In t-code f-02 Company code and currency these two fields header data are required fields...Is it possible to make them optional fields in SPRO....If possible then please let me what is the path and T-code????

Hi,
Company Code and Currency are mandatory fields for entering any FI posting. If Company Code is left blank in which company code should post the transaction. Similarly, without indicating the currency how will the system know in which currency the transaction is to be posted.
One option is through authorizations, we can restrict to which Company codes an end user can post the transactions.
Thanks

Preventing entry into the Cost Center field during PO creation

I need to ensure that the Cost Center assigned in a PR (with Account Assignment) cannot be changed when creating a PO with reference to the PR. Can anyone tell me how to restrict the Cost Center field in the PO document type to 'display' only?
Thanks
Akin

I think it can be acheived making the Cost center display in the paticular movement type using program RM07CUFA ( in Tcode SE38 )

Why doesn't the customer support menu-driven system offer an "opt-out" option for cases where none of the available options meets the customer's need?

I have called customer support several times to get problems with my service plan corrected. None of the menu-driven options meets my needs, but the system does not offer a way to connect to a live rep. The only way to get to a live rep is to hit the "invalid selection" O key several times. Good customer service would include an "opt-out" choice.

I'm sorry to learn that our phone system does not include an option for your specific concerns Windy1040! I can address all Verizon Wireless issues! How can I help you?

BADI for changing fields during Creation of BP in CRM

Hello to everyone,
I need to find a BADI (or other way) to default several fields during BP creation in CRM (4.0 SR1 SP9). The fields I will like to set are TAX TYPE, TAX NUMBER, TAX CATEGORY, etc.. I have found the BADI BUPA_TAX_UPDATE but i dont see any suitable parameters (structures) to changes these fields. Please advice and thanks in advance.

Hi
If you use function BUPA_NUMBERS_GET then your BP number will already be buffered and you can avoid a DB read. It may also be that the BP is not in the DB yet anyway.
You can only pass one GUID in at a time - loop through IT_CHANGED_INSTANCES into a variable of type BU_PARTNER_GUID and pass that into the function as input parameter IV_PARTNER_GUID.

Automatic Partner Determination Std Contact Person during Activity Creation

Hi ,
There is a requirement in my project where the Standard Contact Person of the Sold to Party should be automatically determined during Activity Creation .I have completed the Partner Function configurations and now the Standard Contact Person is being successfully determined as the Partner.
However, there is a problem in a scenario where in another Contact Person other than the Standard Contact Person is to be determined during Activity Creation . In that case, the option to select the other Person is not being offered through a pop up window, but the System automatically populates the next Contact Person based on the BP Id ( Next on the Number Range )
Is there any way , so that the normal procedure of selecting one Contact Person from a list in the Pop Window can be incorporated , once the standard Contact Person is being removed from the Contact Person field in the Business Transaction .
<< Moderator message - Please do not promise points >>
Regards,
Maroof
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Jan 5, 2011 5:06 PM

Hello Maroof,
you should check first the standard relationship flag of the account. Means check the account and go to the
relationship contact person.
There you will find the standard Relationship Flag, which is relevant for the system to determine the main CP.
Furthermore please check the partner procedure:
For each partner function you can enter a value in field Maximum and Selection Limit. Please consider the F1 help
for the field Selection Limit where you can find the explanation when and how the selection popup is triggered:
Example 1
You enter 3 in this field.
When the system finds three or more partners who could fulfill this partner function, it displays a selection list.
You choose from the list which partners to enter in the transaction.
Example 2
You do not mark this field, but enter 5 as the Maximum for this partner function.
When the system finds six or more appropriate partners it displays a selection list.
Hopefully this information helps you.
Regards
Rene

Restricted WBS during PO Creation : Department wise WBS to be allowed for PO Creation

Dear SAP PS Members
as per the SAP Standard anyone can choose the account assignment checked WBS for PR/PO Creation, however we are facing issues with this as end user may choose other department WBS out of understanding.which leads to reporting inconsistencies showing wrong picture of cost and assigned values.
is there any way by which we can allow each department to use only their department WBS for Procurement (materials and services).
that means SAP system shall control and avoid any transaction or postings on non relevant WBS's for the respective Department. ( other Dept. WBS)
please provide the ideas or workable logic !
Many Thanks
Avinash Shelke

How you are specifying that XXX-XX-X WBS is relevant to ABC department and so on? Are you using any custom field like 'Owner code' etc. to specify it?
Through std. customizing its not possible but through development it can be done as follows:
If you are maintaining department/owner code field n project structure for wbs then use this department-WBS field combination to validate it during PO, you need to maintain 'Department' field as a mandatory field in PO master (check whether it's custom field or std. in PO,i think it would be a custom one).
Once department field appears in PO that validate it from 'department-WBS' combination of project structure (use these fields from table PRPS) and pop-up warning/error message accordingly. You would require stand. user-exit for it in PO search for it in MM forum.
And if, you are not maintaining department/owner code field in WBS master then maintain it in a separate table (WBS->department) and validate in the same way as explained above.
Thanks.

Mandatory fields in dynpro

Hi!
I have some mandatory fields in my dynpro, but i also have a option to fill data in the dynpro after filling 2 fields and clickin a button.
The problem is that if I click the button, it says that I have to fill the mandatory fields. Is there a way to stop the control-function only for this button-click?
i tried it with exit-commands, but so i don´t get the data from the 2 filled fields, because it only transports the user-command.
thank you in advance!
Andreas

Hii Andreas..
This is the Solution for u..
You are using the Module AT EXIT-COMMAND to avoid the Mandatory field checks. But in this module the Screen fields are not Copied to Program Variables.
Only the OK_CODE(SY-UCOMM) will be copied.
But you can read the Values of the SCREEN FIELDS by Calling the FM
<b>DYNP_VALUES_READ</b>
(This Fm reads the Screen field values even before they are transported to program)
EG:
CALL FUNCTION 'DYNP_VALUES_READ'
EXPORTING
dyname = sy-cprog
dynumb = sy-dynnr
TABLES
dynpfields = h_dynpfields
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
Let me know if there are any issues.
