Hi Debra,
To accomplish mass maintainence of Info Records in TCode MEMASSIN. ** Please proceed with caution as you're about to change a considerable number of database records at once.

Select your particular field and in the next screen, do a multiple selection (button with a yellow arrow) and carefully select the vendor materials you want to do the mass maintainence for the appropriate info records.
Let me know if this helpled

Mass Delete Purchasing Info Records

Is there a way to flag a standard info record EINA-LOEKZ in mass maintenance MEMASSIN
for several materials across several different vendors?
I can select EINA-LOEKZ in MEMASSIN then choose selection fields and pull down the material and vendor. But I dont see an option for purchasing org., or plant?

Hi,
Use this transaction to delete a Purchasing Information Record. An information record contains information tying a specific vendor to a material or material group.
Menu Path
From the SAP R/3 Screen, select the path:
Logistics >> Materials management >> Purchasing >>
(new menu) Master data >> Info record >> Flag for deletion
Or use the transaction code --> ME15

Update purchase info records

Hi!
I have to upload purchase inforecords from a flat file into SAP.
Is there a BAPI or function module or class existing?
Or do I have to use the ancient batch input method
have fun
Flo

Hi folks!
for sure I know BAPI_INFORECORD_GETLIST.
But I do not want to generate a list of inforecords.
I want to create new inforecords from a flat file, and I want, if possible, NOT use BTCI programs (like RM06IBI*).

Mass Creation of Material Group Purchase info record

Dear All
Currently we are developing a custom transaction in SAP to mass upload Purchase Info records from a flat file (excel)
We are using the standard Function Module ME_POST_INFORECORD to create the PIR s
We use two different number ranges for Material and Material Group PIR s. This is set up already in SPRO>MM>PIR>Define Number Ranges
Purchasing info record for stock material (Group - IL ) have a number range X
Purchasing info record for material group (non-stock mat.)(Grpup -IN) have number range Y
So when we create a Material PIR manually in SAP it picks X number range and Y number range for Material Group PIR
But when we create Material Groups PIR via the new custom transaction it creates PIR s with Number range X.
Upon checking understood that the standard FM ME_POST_INFORECORD is always defaulting the Number Range Group as IL internally . Seems like a harcoding done by SAP
Wanted to know
- Is there any another FM we should consider while creating Material Group PIR s. Any other Function module provided by SAP for that ?
- Or what can be other way to resolve this ?
Please let me know your views on this.
Regards
Shyam

Hi,
For mass upload from flat files you can consider LSMW with different options e.g. IDoc:
Message Type INFREC
Basic Type INFRECMASS01
or simply via recording of transaction (this should be using exactly the same NR as you have when doing this manually).

Create Purchase info record using LSMW idoc method

Hello Friends,
I am trying to update Purchase Info records using LSMW Standard program RM06IBI0.
But it is not updating the condition price details and scale Quantity.
For that the form suggessted LSMW IDOC method. with : Message Type         COND_A / COND_A02.
But i dont know is the info record created earlier to this step or else we can create both using this method
at a time ? Does anybody please suggest.
( Actually Purchase Info record created using transaction ME11 ).
Regards,
Phaneendra

you first create the info record and subsequently you load the conditions.
become familiar with the condition tables and its key first. Check How table A017 and A018 are maintained.
Intresting is the field VAKEY which is actually the link to your info record.
This is a combination of vendor, material, purchasing org, plant , and info record indicator.
data: begin of ZZVARKEYA,
        ZLIFNR like LFM1-LIFNR,
        ZMATNR like MARc-MATNR,
        ZEKORG like LFM1-EKORG,
        ZWERKS like MARC-WERKS,
        ZINFTYP like EINE-ESOKZ,
        end of zzvarkeyA.

How can the PO know that the price in the info record is not current?
have you checked how a price condition in an info record looks like?
if is usually valid from the date of entry to end of year 2999 (or similar)
if you add a new condition with a shorter validy, then the original condition is broken into 2 parts: it ends with the start date of your new condition, and starts again with a start date equal to the end date of your new condition.
So you have a valid price all the time.
...and your PO cannot know that the price is current or not.

Purchasing Info Record

Dear Group Members
1. How Purchase info is created automatically?
Purchase info record is not updated when we use ordering measure in PR
(followed the instruction as per sap help)
I donu2019t want to change Purchase info
details as followed from SAP HELP DOCUMENT
Message No : ME898
UNIT H is not intentend as an order unit
System Response:
The system check whether the order unit you entered is allowed for this purchase order by comparing the order unit you entered with the order unit that the system determined
The system check the potential source of the order unit in the given sequence. if a source is not available (if the purchase order is not referenced to a preceding document for example ) then the system checks the next possible source ( such as purchase requisition ):
1 If you create a PO with reference to a proceeding document (PO, Contract or request for quotation), the system copies the order unit from the preceding document. The Var. OUn (variable order unit) indicator must not be selected in the Purchase info record
2 If you create a po with reference to PR and the var, OUn indicator is selected in the purchasing info record, the system copies the order unit from purchase requisition.
In Enjoy PR ( ME51N)you can maintain the order unit on the item detail screen on the sorce of supply tab. in the normal PR (ME51)you can maintain the order unit on the item details screen
3 When the Purchasing info record for the combination of vendor and material exists, the system copies the order unit from the purchasing info record
4 IF you create a purchase order with reference to PR and VAr .OUn is not selected in the purchasing info record, the system copies the order unit from the purchasing requisition
5 If you create a purchase order with reference to a pr and their is no existing purchase info record for the combination of vendor & material , then the system copies the unit of measure from the PR item in the item overview.
6 If you create a normal purchase order the system copies the order unit the material master
7 When you create a stock transport order the system copies the unit of measure from material master
8 If order unit and the unit of measure were not defined in the material master the system copies the material master base unit of measure
You people guide me how can i update Purchase info record?
I have Query to be solved .
Regards
Shamulheq

Hi ! Jason M.
I checked the below configuration
SPRO - MM - Purchasing - Purchase order - Define screen layout at doc.level - Select ME21N - details - administrative data, item - Info update (optional or required).
In my configuration screen Info update is optional
Even though info records are not updated
My Query
PR Unit of measure is created in each, PO had created in each in the month of June & info records are in each fo the vendor
Now the Purchase group realize that the PO should be in Days
We made the changes in Material master ordering unit of Measure in days DAY
A) If we Crete PO system will not allow to save PO in days but only allows to save in Unit of measure as EA
B) If PO created by removing the info record PO is saved in unit of measure as days with the same info record
But info records are not updating Pleas provide some solution solve this

Mass Change Of Vendor Code in Purchasing Info Records

Hi All,
I have one query and I already search a lot for it but didn't find any specific solutions.
I want to change a vendor code in around 1000 Purchasing Info Record, I had already tried for Mass Maintenance Through T. Code - MEMASSIN, But I found Vendor field in New Values as Grey Field.
Is there any other way to mass change of Vendor in Purchasing Info Records.
Why vendor field is showing me as a grey Field?
Thanks In advance
With Regards,
Patanjali Bhagat

Hi Govardhan,
Pl correct me if i am wrong....EINA-RELIF field is to check and uncheck for regular vendor...It will not change the vendor ID...
EINA-LIFNR...is the field to change vendor no.., but i can not see this field name is not there in the table...
Still i think that we can not change the vendor id's once it is created for Info record...
Pl correct me if am wrong.

Mass change of text in purchase info record.

Hi All,
For purchasing info record, we have maintained copying rules to adopt text from material master. In copying rule for info record, we have maintained Fixed indicator for material master text "Purchase Order Text." The texts copied to info records from material master is having status fixed.
The problem is, since text is having fixed indicator it is not copying to PO unless we make change or adopt it. Now we do not know how many info record is having the text as fixed since in most PO's text is not getting copied.
Is there any way where we can make a mass change so that fixed indicator is removed. If LSMW, how can we know how many info records are having text as fixed indicator "*". Or is there is some other way.
Thanks

Hi Alex
You can change/ remove the "No material text' check box either by using a
mass maintenance - transaction MASS,
object type: BUS3003
table: EINE
give the Info record number/Pur org/info-category/ plant
or using the batch input recording using LSMW.
You can find the number entries of info-records having 'No Material text' using transaction SE16/SE16N with table EINE
and select the 'NO Material text' with 'X: and hit number of entries..you will find it
Thanks

Mass Creation of Purchasing Info Records

Hi all,
we want to change the vendor for a certain amount of articles (old vendor e.g. 102, new vendor e.g. 768).
To order the articles (maybe approx. 1000) by the new vendor, we need to create new Purchasing Info Record (for vendor 768) for every article bought by vendor 102.
Is there a standard transaction to handle this? MASS_EINE doesn't seem to fit to my problem.
Regards,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,
You need to go for creating new Inforecord for Article, Vendor, Porg and Site Combination .
You should not go for Mass Maintanace for changing vendor.
Go for Uploading by LSMW or BDC for ME11 tcode.

Selvakumar. M

Item text in Purchase Order getting updated with info. record Purchase Order Text

Hello All,
I am working in a roll out project and facing issue in text repeating twice for the line item in the Purchase Order for the new company code for which rollout is happening
Issue:
Item text in Purchase Order getting updated with info. record Purchase Order Text
01) PO Text is maintained in the material master under "Purchase Order Text" tab
02) The PO text that is maintained in material master is getting updated in the Purchase Info. Record
03) When Purchase Order is created, the "Item Text" gets updated in the Purchase Order automatically only for the new company code for which rollout is happening. when printed, this results in the text getting duplicated twice
03.1) this behavior is not observed in the Plants/ Company code that is already Live
Configurations in the system:
The copying rules for the "Texts for Purchase Orders" is
Source Object = "Info Record", Source Text="Purchase Order Text", Fix="*"
We have modified the Purchase Order form to print one of the condition types maintained for calculating the tax. Other than this there is no change to the plants that are already live.
I could not locate any "Purchase Organization" / "Company Code" / "Plant specific configuration.
Am I missing any configuration or where can I look in what is causing this error.
Request help from the experts in the forum.
with Regards,
Dhandapani R

There is no company/purchasing/plant specific customizing for purchase order text.
The customizing copying rules for the "Texts for Purchase Orders" affects all equally .
If the text in the purchase order in ME23N is already filled different to other plants, then you either have a modification in place, or the texts are differently maintained in the referenced data (vendor, material, info record, contract)

PURCHASE INFO RECORD TAX CODE UPDATION THROUGH PO

In Purchase info record tax code is alredy exist for one vendor and material.
while making new Purchase order for same vendor and material but tax code is differant then can tax code will not update automatic in purchase info record.
How to do automatic updation in purchase info record?

Hi,
The Tax code will be updated from the PO at the first time Info record created from the PO as per the Info update setting.
In your case as already with tax code an Info record exist as per standard the new tax code willn't get updated in to the existing info record. You have to change the new tax code in the info recordfrom the transaction ME12.
