ME57 - sort indicator 8 [by account assignment]

In ME57 we wish to use sort indicator as 8 [Sort by Account assignment] when executed
Its throwing an error dat 'Please enter valid sort indicator''
Is der any config around it, how we can fix this issue
Thanks

Hi Sasi,
This error is due to the coding and
also for note 205968, which is already applied in your system. It says,
that after its implementation, the indicator 8 is denied with an error
message. This has the effect that it can now be used in Transaction ME5K
only.
The reason why the indicator 8 is not used anymore in transaction ME57
is that the performance was bad, as it was necessary to read the table
EKBN many times.
You may use transaction ME5K with sort indicator 8 very well.

Partial invoice indicator for multiple account assignment case

In ECC, the partial invoice indicator field (TWRKZ) has to be set when there are multiple account assignments for an item. But this field is not available in SRM account assignment section. So in SRM, when a PO is created with multiple account assignments for an item and transferred to ECC, error ("06"/"437") would be displayed -
Distr. ind. and partial invoice ind. must be set for multi acct. assgt
Has anyone of you encountered such issue? Of course we can add this field in SRM PO Accounting as a custom field and map it later when transferring the PO to ECC, but it seems to be an obvious gap between SRM PO and ECC PO, wouldn't you think?
Thanks.

Hi! Thanks in advance!
Did you find the solution for this issue!!

PO Account Assignment Tab in ECC - with Split Accounting

Hello,
We currently are using Funds and WBS Elements within our SAP system. When both a fund and a WBS Element are used on one line item within the shopping cart, I am able to see all of the information (fund, wbs element, fund center, cost center, commitment item, etc). However, after the purchase order is created and transmitted to ECC the "Account Assignment Category" is marked as "X - All aux.acct.assgts." and the account assignment tab only has the following column headers:
- Sequential Number of Account Assignment
- Quantity
- Distribution Percentage in Case of Multiple Account Assgt
- Cost Center
- G/L Account Number
- Order Number
- Asset Subnumber
- WBS Element
- Sales and Distribution Document Number
- Sales Document Number
- Delivery Schedule Line Number
- Unloading Point
- Goods Recipient/Ship-to Party
- Deletion Indicator: Purchasing Document Account Assignment
I can see that the fund is within the EKKN table (Field: BP_GEBER) but for some reason ME23N does not have this field in the Account Assignment tab when the category is "X". How do I add "Fund" into the Account Assignment tab so that it will be visible within ME23N?
Thanks,
Katie

Dropship Process - Account assigned PO with Freight

Hi Experts
Scenario - We have a process defined for third-party drop ship with PO Account assigned to 'Y - 3rd Party W/O SN' and to a GL account based on this account assignment.
We have an automatic price determination for a condition type for 'Drop ship charges' - This is a charge client pays to the vendor for doing the drop shipment. This condition type is basically a copy of freight condition with accounting key to FRE.
Based on the account assignment there is no GR and thus an IR is done for the PO after the customer confirms that he has received the material.
We have activated 'Debit delivery costs separately' indicator in the account assignment for separating the drop ship charges.
Expectation - In the IR, the cost of the goods has to be accounted to the consumption account 500000 in the PO and the drop ship to be accounted to the GL assigned to FRE 501005.
What is happening - cost of goods as well as the drop-ship charges are getting accounted to the consumption account in the PO as shown in the MIRO screen,
Will appreciate if you can suggest a way to make this work as the expectation without doing a GR.
Thank you for reading the story

Hi,
any changes made in sales order will be updated in PR but not into PO. now if you have raised PO with less qty then change in the sales order and create a new line item while first line will have the qty equal to po qty. then you can go ahead with this.
this is actually a work around for the changes in PO to be incorporated in to sales order.

Multiple Account Assignment Distribution by Percentage in EBP

Hi Gurus,
We are in SRM 4 SP13 and ECC 4.6C ,Classic Scenario.The SC creates a PR in the backend and from that PO subsequently.
When we are creating a SC with Multiple Account Assignment and Distribution by Percentage to different cost centres   the PR created with
Distribution : Distribution by percentage and
Partial Invoice : Distribute in Sequence. This is for materials
But for Services it is created as
Distribution : Distribution by percentage and
Partial Invoice :Distribute Proportionally.
For services Partial Invoice is working fine and for materials it is Picking "Distribute in Sequence"
Is this a standard behaviour or any thing to be changed .Please let me know.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi there,
Standard SRM Hardcodes the partial invoice indicator to Progressive when
sending POs to SAP in the Classice Scenario:
SPOOL_PO_READ_BAPI_EXPORTS hard codes the value of po_items-part_inv
to 1 that is equivalent to "Progressive fill-up" in R/3 POs & REQ.
It is not possible to create from EBP to backend some PO-documents with
multiple account assignment and partial invoice indicator = 2 (which is
proportional distribution because there is no possibility to set this
indicator on the account assignment creen in EBP and theris no Badi
to do it so far. This is a missing functionality from SAP.
You still could use LIV with partial invoice indicator= 1 and then you
can change to partial invoice propotional in backend manually.
This is not comfortable but it is possible so far.
You can see in the following code from the mentioned Function how Service and material documents are treated differently
======================================
set distr. indicator only for the dummy item for services
for material items and the service lines
it is derived from distribution type in EBP
    IF next > 1.
      IF po_items-item_cat = '9' OR
         po_items-item_cat = '1' .
        po_items-distrib = '2'.    "prozentuale Verteilung
      ENDIF.
      po_items-part_inv = '1'.      <<<<       Hard Coded to "1"
      MODIFY po_items INDEX h_index.
    ELSE.
      CLEAR po_items-distrib.    "prozentuale Verteilung
      MODIFY po_items INDEX h_index.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
CHECK NOT po_items[] IS INITIAL.
======================================
Or possibly use Badi BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK
Hope this points you in the right direction.

Matthew

GR and GR Non Val indicator in R/3 PO for multiple account assigned SC's

Hi,
We are on SRM 3.0(EBP 4.0) and R/3 4.7.
We have implemented the BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK badi for setting or clearing the GR and IR indicators under certian conditions.
But for Multiple account assigned SC's we get an error message "06181 With non-valuated GR, please also enter GR i ndicator ".
We have tried implementing note# 872000, but this has not solved the issue.
The PO's get created only if we force the GR indicator when transferring the data into R/3.
It seems clear that while creating the PO the system is encountering the GR Non Val indicator but not the GR indicator, so its throwing the error message (we get the same error message when we create the PO from R/3 with GRnon val indicator checked and GR ind unchecked).
The proposed solution is that in the same BADI, along with clearing the GR indicator, we will also clear the GR non val indicator.
This can solve the issue if the indicators are transferred as it is from EBP.
But can anyone tell me if these indicators are also checked/changed in any FM/program in R/3 before the PO is created?
Is there any customizing setting which is affecting this particular behaviour?
Regards,
Srivatsan

Hi Srivatsan ?
In ECC, you have a configuration point :
Materials Management->Account Assignment->Maintain Account Assignment Categories
Here you can untick the indicator you want by account assignment category;
Kind regards,

Set deletion indicator in purchase requisition account assignment

Hi Guys,
Can you please help we with the solution to set deletion indicator in purchase requisition account assignment or close purchase requisition. A purchase requisition of $3.600.000,00 was created through Project system Network-External Processing and it has 2 duplicate network activities and $2.246.577,20 was converted to purchase order then $1,353,423 became the network remaining order plan. A purchase order service entry sheet was accepted and the invoice was created. Now Iu2019m experiencing problem when Iu2019m trying to change WBS element and Network system status to TECO in order to remove the remaining order plan of $1,353,423. Iu2019m getting error message number:06411 the procedure I have follow to correct the error is to reduce quantities in the account assignment item and delete superfluous account assignment by setting deletion in each case but I cannot do that because the fields are grey
Regards
Sandile

Hi,
please check first if the report ZMO_CORRECT_EBKN from note 739004 can correct the problem.
I would like to recommend you to check also the note 796973 whether the correction is avalilable in your coding, it should solve the issue.
In case the problem still persists, please open a ticket to get help from the primary support in area MM-SRV.

GR non-valuated indicator controlled by the Account Assignment Category

Dear Gurus,
In standard customizing, is it possible to do a configuration so that the GR non-valuated indicator in the PO is controlled by the Account Assignment Category. For example:
1. For Acct Assignment Category = A (Asset), the GR non-valuated indicator is disabled (grey out)
2. All other Acct Assignment Categories, the GR non-valuated indicator is enabled (not grey out)
Appreciate your kind feedback.

Which checkbox or radio button specifically ?
It's not the 'GR non-valuated' checkbox or the 'GR non-val binding' checkbox right ?
I can't find any radio button for 'GR non-valuated' so that I can set it to 'display' or 'hide' either.
Perhaps I should elaborate a bit more:
Disabled = Box is grey out = Non Modifiable = Cannot tick even if you wanted to, Cannot untick even if you wanted to
Enabled = Box not grey out = Modifiable = Can tick if you wanted to, Can untick if you wanted to

Account assignment indicator cannot be removed (Error: CJ056)

Dear Experts,
I hope somebody can help me:
I want to assign a network activity to a wbs element - but I don't want that the wbs-element is an account assignment indicator.
I first thought that I could control that by the paramter "Control key" in the networt activity - but I still get message/error above (CJ056).
In this case I want to use the network acitivty only for Scheduling not for any "Cost-Activities".
I hope somebody can help me.
kind regards
nexus

I just created a new project to check if the status is the source of my problem.
But even with a new Project without any posted costs, it's not possible to remove the flag.
the error cj056 relats to the following check:
"The following assignments are checked:
network
network activity
Aufträge zum Projekt (Fertigungsauftrag, Innenauftrag, Instandhaltung)
Planauftrag"
Is it such a mandatory requirement that the flag is sent, when you assign a network acitivity to a wbs-element?
even when you use the network activity just for scheduling?

Account Assignment Changeable Indicator - OME9

Hi ,
Can someone explain what is the use of Account assignment changebale indicator in OME9 configuration.
I hav tried with material and service PO...if i chk or unchk this indicator in OME9 .....i dont see any difference during PO change.
Regards
Ratha

Hi
Account assignment changeable can be useful at time of invoice verification.
Ex: You did non-valuated GRN and expense was not yet booked to account assignment used in PO. Now at time of invoice posting, actual expense posting happens..now here you can change the account assignment category and can use true account for posting.
Thanks

Consuming document with different account assignment from Earmarked Funds

Hi,
We have implemented Public Sector FM functionality in version ECC 6.0 and we are using Earmarked Funds (Funds Reservation).
The system is allowing to post consuming documents with different account assignment from that in the
Funds reservation document nevertheless we donu2019t have set the indicator 'Acct.asst.changeable' in the Funds Reservation document.
I don't need the fields Fund Center and Commitment Item to be transfered from earmarked funds document (Define Rules for Account Assignment Transfer). Instead, if consuming document have a different account assignment, the user should get the error message no. RE603 'Account assignment differs from document XX 001'.
In version 4.6C it worked this way. In our case the Fund Center is delivered from Cost Center and Commitment Item is delivered from Cost Element (SAP - Derivation Strategy for FM Object Assignment).
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance,
Rodrigo

Hi,
You get the error message RE603 when you make the settings below:
1. Spro > ... > Earmarked funds and funds transfer > Account assignment transfer > Define rules for account assignment transfer; you flag the 'Active' boxes for account assignment (sort of conterintuitive).
2. Spro > ... > Earmarked funds and funds transfer > Change message control; change RE603 to 'E'.
3. In Earmarked fund document, flag the 'Acct.asst. changeable' box (totally conterintuitive).
Please give it a try and let us know the outcome.

Purchase order and Account assignement category- Change

hi.,
We are trying to receive the Purchase order of High value components into INVENTORY.
However, most of these Purchase Orders were created with account assignments.
Because of that, if we receives these POs, they will be consumed against the object identified in the account assignment.
Additionally, some of these have been invoiced already and would need to be backed out from the finance side.
Question: How can we receive these STO Purchase orders and then make changes through Movement type ( or any other way ) so that the HIgh Value Components that are consumed against that AC assignment can be subsequently moved into Invenotory.
Also, what are the other options ( FI will not open Previous period) so that the PO's which have been invoiced can be reversed against that AC assignment.
Thanks All

hi Rajesh.,
As mentioned earlier, these Purchase orders are STO's which have been already created and we are waiting to do the GR for the same. Items in the STO PO are of High value which we need to bring into INVENTORY.
But, because these STO PO's were created with account assignments, if we do GR now, they will be consumed against the object identified in the account assignment.
Some of these STO PO's have been invoiced already and FI has indicated that they could cancel the invoices for those STO PO's in previous posting period.
Question again : How can we receive these STO Purchase orders and then make changes through Movement type ( or any other way ) so that the HIgh Value Components that are consumed against that AC assignment can be subsequently moved into Inventory and not to a cost Center (202)
Step (1) Can we cancel the Invoiced items> reverse the GR for invoiced Items>reverse STO for PO ?
Step (2) Can we reverse the STO for PO for which GR has not been done? then
Step (3) Change the PO through ME22N, remove the Account assignment category?
Or how do we correct this situation for
(1) PO's already invoiced.
(2) PO for which GR has not been made. How can we receive them into Stock and not Cost center.
Anticipating a reply
Thanks

No error message when incorrect account assignment type K in PO

Hello,
When creating a PO with any raw materials, I can either enter K in the account assignment type, either let the field blank.
If there is no assignment the system will use key EIN to make the posting, if there is an assignment K (compulsory for services for instance), the system will use key VBR.
In this case (raw material), I do not want the users to be able to save their PO if the account assignment has been entered in the item (only blank account assignment type for materials dealt with in stock and value).
Does anyone have a solution?
Best regards,
Ronan

Hi,
This means ERS is active in your system.
What this means is that when you do a GRN, an ERS flag is activated in the PO header. The ERS is then settled using the PO data in SRM.
If you have not settled this (at least this is what is indicated from the message), then uncheck this flag in the PO header and then try and archive.
Cheers.

Service PO Account assignment Error

Hello All
We have created Service PO with 10 line items ( Cost centre K ) & Deleted all the line & again restored the same but in service line deletion indicator is still there in each line.
During removal of deletion indicator it is giving error Please specify valid account assignment, for all the line items account assignment is there & cost centre & GL account is given
Please suugest
Regards
Rajesh

Hi,
a service line can be never saved WITHOUT the account assignment details (except acc. ***. category U in in the PO item).
In case the table ESLL will have entry but the accounting tables eskl has got no entry or has entries with deletion flag, it would be an inconsistent situation.
You can set on the screen SAPLMLSK 0200 the deletion flag (ESKL-LOEKZ) for your service account assignment, but without entering a new account assignment information the system would not allow you to leave this screen. When you set the deletion flag for service line in the account assignment detail screen, you must enter right afterwards a new account assignment information in order to leave the screen without the error message 06 408.
