Material Group Link to Purchasing Group

Dears,
The client requirement is that they want to link material group to Purchasing group for materials without material master. Any idea how to do this?
Thanks,

Hi,
I dont think it would be possible in SAP MM through std configuration.
May be you have to maitaina z table and use it via exit during PR creation.
FYI.
The same functionality is possible through SAP SRM, where we map the material groups and the purchasing group
in SRM or structure.

is it possible to create a single PO for my case mentioned above.
I am using BADI BBP_BS_GROUP_BE for this but don't understand how to go about it.
Please help with your useful suggestions.

Hi
PO can be splitted based on Header Data
Company Code
Purchasing Organization,
Purchase Group

It also depends upon the backend customizing for assignmnet of plant to Purchasing Organization

Vendors per purchasing group

Hello
How can I get a list over vendors per purchasing group in SAP?
The solutions I've read about here in the past does not work.
regards
André

assignment of purchasing group to vendors is not best practice and never saw it anywhere
the field in LFM1 (vendor master purchasing data view) is only taken into account if you did not assign a purchasing group to the material master.
the process of procurement is starting with demand for a material, the requisition has already to go to a purchasing group before the purchasing group does the source determination.
It could only be different if you have fixed sources per material and purchasing groups in the vendor master instead of the material master, then the source determination could happen in the MRP run.
If you never maintained in purchasing group in a vendor master, then you can only analyze existing PO to find a link between purchasing group and vendor.
One way to analyze this in SAP would be transaction TAANA.
Just click the execute button in TAANA, enter EKKO table and click the multiple selection for the variant field. In next screen click the ad-hoc variant button.
In the next screen select the fields purchasing group and vendor number and purchasing group, then click continue and execute your selection.
You will get a list with any vendor/purchasing group combination you ever had in a PO

Vendor Responsibility for Purchasing Groups

Hi experts!
We should assign vendor responsibility for purchasing groups, what means depending on which vendor / source-of-supply is selected in the shopping cart the correct purchasing group is assigned.
Do you have any idea how to handle this in SAP standard?
Can we use a BADI to help out?
Many thanks for your ideas.
Best regards,
Corinne

Should Purchasing group be assigned to a purchasing organization.

Do we need to assign purchasing group to a Purchasing organization. If not then why.
Seems like silly question but please help me out conceptually.

Hi,
No need to assign purchase group to purchase organization.
Because if your are assigning purchase group to the perticular purchase organization, purchase group can raise Purchase order to that purchase organization only. He/She can't raise PO for the another organization.
That's why there is no assignment link for Purchase group to Purchase organization in the SPRO - Enterprise structure.
So, Any purchase group can raise PO for the any purchase org.

Hi All,
described problem in note 1092194 applies to situation we face. We implemented that note but problem still exists. Has anyone hints or experience in this?
My Testing results after implementing Note 1092194:

1)      chage PGrp from C01 to C02 in SRM-GOA
2)      distributing GOA from SRM to 2 ERP-Systems a) T01, b) T06
                           a) ECC 6.0 IS-H 600 (T01)

Only PGrp in a) is changed not in b)
Can any one give a hint or help?
Thanks, Isam
note 1092194
You create a GOA and all of the R/3 Contracts created
(ditributed) from the Global Outline Agreement of SRM have the same
purchasing group. This purchasing group is mapped to the first
purchasing group that has been created in the SRM system.

Change Default purchasing group in requisition

Hi,
I have a purhcasing group X populated from info record while creating the requisitions using ME51N.
When i try to overwrite the default purchasing group with new purchasing group, systme does not allow.
System doesnot allow to change the default purcasing group.
How can i get rid of this ??

I do not get any error . If in place of original purchasing group (which is defaulted from Info record) , i write new purchasing group then while saving system again changes it back to the original purchasing group.
I should be able to change the pur. group as i want. But system doens't allow that.
What can be the reason ??

Purchase group in Purchase order from creator not from Material Master

Hi All,
Can you please help me with the next one?
Points rewarded.
In the materialmaster is purchase group 44B entered but
The default purchase group of the buyer is 55C. Is it possible
that the value 55C is automaticaly placed in the PO when
the buyer creates the Purchase order?
At this moment always the default value from Material
master is proposed.
Thank you in advance,
Eric.

Hi,
You have to look at the overall process.
The idea of the Purchasing Group is to indicate which buyer manages that material in that plant.
SO when the system (or a user) generates a requisition for that item at that plant, the system then knows who should convert it etc.
So my question to you would be, "why have you got a default P group in the material master record that is NOT the buyer who manages that item at that plant?"
If several buyers share a list of materials then just use one P group for the "group" of buyers, instead of separate P groups for each buyer.
The system doesn't have the option to automatically overwrite the P group on the requisition because this may be someone just "helping out" the buyer who is busy and so it does not mean that the requisition should be changed to be linked to this other P group.
You already have the field "created by" on the PO and so if you need to report on who created what, then simply use this field instead of P group.
But the P group on the material master (and therefore the requisition) shoudl ALWAYS be the P group that will convert reqs for this item plant combination.

Restricting for creation or PO for material with other purchase group

Hi,
We have one requirement we want to restrict the user for creation of purchase order for the materials which is not in there purchasing group
on ME21N in order data we enter the Pur. Group e,g 101 and if user enter the material XYZ for which the purchasing group is 102 system should issue the error message for this, so what setting can be done for this
regards,
zafar

the purchasing group in material master is just a default for requisitions that are created via MRP.
user can enter whatever purchasing group they want in a requisition if they create one manually.
the buyer usually looks in his worklist e.g. in ME57 by selection all requisitions that are assigned to him.
However, if the buyer 101 is the holiday replacement to 102, then the general concept allows that buyer 101 can pull the requisitions of buyer 102 and change the purchasing group to 101 in the PO.
If you dont want that, then restrict authorization based on object M_BANF_EKG (purchasing group in requisition)

Purchasing Report: Plant, Purchasing group, material type, PO, GR No.

Hi,
Refer following reports;
