Missing in Automatic Document Update (PO's from Contract)

I need to run automatic PO update on open release orders after updating the contract. The 3 release orders do not have GR's against them or any other follow-on documents.
The CONDBI setting is made for the message updates. The automatic index indicator is on in the vendor master. Because I set the indicator after two of the documents were created, I am running MEI3 to get my index up to date and it is creating entries for the documents in the index.
My contract has two condition periods - one from today to 21.11.2010 for the current price; the second from the 22.11.2010 to infinity with the new price.
My release orders have delivery dates of 22.10.2010, 15.11.2010 and 15.12.2010. Two documents were created 8.9.2010, the third was created today. These documents are selected for the index.
When I run MEI1, SAP tells me the documents were processed successfully, but no changes are actually made. I would expect, with the delivery date of 15.12.2010, that the program would update the release order with the new price, since the delivery date falls after the price change.
If I run MEI4 on the same data, the system doesn't create a worklist, saying there are no changes.  No entries are created in WIND table, unless I make the price change effective immediately on the EKPO-NETPR field - even when using the pricing date field  to indicate the later change (the condition change is also not re-effecting my release strategy on the contract, but that's another problem).  The BD61 change pointer setting is on.
I'm not sure where to go from here to try to get this functionality working.

To automatically created Approved PO's you will need the following
1. To create Standard PO's a Requisition will have to use a Quotation. This quotation can be attached to an ASL to default while creating a req
The Workflow "PO Create Documents" should have automatic creation allowed set to yes
2. To create Releases a Blanket PO must be attached to an ASL . The Workflow "PO Create Documents" should have automatic creation allowed set to yes
Please let me know if you have any questions
Thanks

  • Automatic pricing in Purchase Order from contract

    Dear Experts,
    In a po if there is no contract available the pricing should be able to key in manually.
    is there any provisions to maintaining price list or any other method to get pricing automatically in to po?
    If there is contract exists, the pricing is coming automatically. But it is in changeable mode, our requirement is it should not be allowed to be changed manually.
    Is it possible?
    early answers is highly appreciated.
    Regards
    sai krishna

    hi,
    If thinking logically, then its bettwe to not to change the setting for displaying the price in the PO which will flow from contract..this is because thecontract is the internal doc while the PO is first external doc...In which all the req. changes like qty, value etc shd be possible ....because if it goes wrong, then whole process may get affected, so its suggested taht you don't change the setting...
    Secondly, If you don't use the contract then its better to go for Purcahse info record, which contains price of vendor material combination and which will also flow...
    Regards

  • Error 'Express document "update was terminated" from the author'.

    Dear All,
      I have created a delivery doc(PGI) with ref to sales doc, it gave the
      del doc no. while creating billing do with ref to this del doc I am getting
      an error " update was terminated". when I cheched Vlo2n it says that the doc does not exist.
      Even I have done PGI the stock is not deducted( MMBE).
       Please help me to rectify this error.
       Thanx and Regards
        Narender.N

    Check if number range is maintained for accounting document to be generated at PGI level. You will have to consult an FI consultant for the same.
    Also check the document flow & there is high possibility that PGI is not saved, but number range utilized during the transaction.

  • Automatic PO creation when neither from Contract or Inventory items.

    Hi All,
        I have unique situation where PO were automatically created from Shopping cart upon approval when they did not have a Contract or for inventory items. The only difference noticed was it has preferred vendor assigned during SC. My thoughts is the SC documents should end up in Sourcing when there is no contracts found or not procured for invoentory.
    We are in SRM 5.0 Extended Classic and SP 15.
    I am not sure what might trigger these Shopping carts to be PO automatically upon approval. Please advise
    Thanks
    Rao

    Hi Muthuraman,
        I understand inorder for SC to become PO, it needs to have a fixed Vendor. but my issue is the SC does not have a fixed vendor(no contract) but a preferred vendor was entered. Though preferred vendor is entered and Vendor is not fixed, PO was created after SC approval which should not be the case. My SPRO settings has 'Sourcing carried out for items without assgined source of supply'
    Please advise.
    Regards
    Rao

  • Update info-record from contract

    Hi there,
    I created a contract with info update indicator set to A. When i created the contract the inforecord did not exist, i think with these settings the inforecord should really get upated when i change the price conditions in contract.
    Any help appreciated,
    Cheers,
    Olivier

    Price will not change in the info record
    when you create contract first time that time info record will be created but info record pricing will not update
    that you have to maintian manually.

  • How to suppress the popup 'Express document "update was terminated" ?

    Hi,
    I am calling few BAPIs in UPDATE TASK Function Module.
    Whenever any of the BAPI returns any Error message  I get a popup for 'Express document "update was terminated" from the author'.
    I know that my SAP Inbox has the Update Terminated Message triggered by the system.
    Is there any way to suppress this popup, even if BAPI returns any error message?
    I am storing the error messages sent by BAPI in an internal table and those error messages are enough for the user.
    But the popup is misguiding to the user thats the reason we dont need the popup for 'Express document "update was terminated" from the author'.

    Hi,
    Its not possible to suppress the express termination message popup. I hope document could not have been saved to database.
    Just try to find out the route cause of the error.
    Error messages are not allowed in FMs called in UPDATE TASK.
    One work around i can suggest is, try to run the BAPI in test mode before calling the update task FM. If the test mode call is error free then only call the UPDATE TASK fm.
    Hope this solves your issue.
    Thanks,
    Vinod.

  • Cutover from manual document type to automatic document type

    Hi, has anyone ever cut over from manual to automatic document type?
    (I have seen the opposite, where an automatic document type becomes manual. It was successful)
    Eg in a data migration, to populate some interunit elimination history data (but avoiding runnnig tasks on history), we could post intrerunit via PL20 flexible upload to a 'manual' document type.
    Then before first use of BCS tasks in the system, change the document type from manual to automatic.
    i can't see any reason why it would not work, will need to be tested of course.
    Any experience or comments out there?

    Thanks guys, I've been too busy to test this but I'm very sure it does work and I also checked with SAP and they agreed.
    So closing the message - I'll only update this message if it does NOT work as expected.

  • Express document "Update was terminated" received from author

    HI experts,
               while creating commercial invoice(F2) i am getting an error Express document "Update was terminated" received from author  i checked in SM13,  Error Updating Table J_1IPART2 this is the error i am getting, one more error iam getting while creating commercial invoice Excise invoice created for Billing document xxxxxxxx, and one more thing i didn't tick in excise group excise invoice during billing and i maintained dispatch number ranges for part2 also,
    Thanks
    seshu

    HI
    while creating invoice(F2) i am getting Excise invoice created for billing document,
    I think you have given the Check the option "Excise Invoice during billing " in excise group " that is the reason excise invoice is generating automatically
    1. My invoice is saving but not updating in document flow
      Excise Invoice number we can't see in  document flow in  the standard SAP
    2. after saving i am getting this error Express document "Update was terminated" received from author
    Ask your ABAPer debug the program based the error and find where you are getting the error exactly i think its number ranges issue
    3. one more thing i can create invoice again with same delivery number and invoice number range is updating, i checked accounting number range also, all those are fine
    Once invoice is done for full qty of delivery we can't create one more invoice
    4. I checked in SM13 Error updating table J_1IPART2
    5. I maintained J_1IINTPR2 number rangers for dispatch
    what is you mentioned in the point 4 & 5 table names are different make sure that which table you are maintained
    if i am wrong please correct me
    Regards,
    Prasanna

  • Acrobat 10 not Scanning all Pages from ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)

    Acrobat 10 does not scan all of the pages from the Automatic Document Feeder from an attached scanner, and only scans some of the pages. The ADF works fine with the built-in Windows 7 Scan and Fax, as well as with HP's software, but it just won't work with Adobe Acrobat for whatever reason. The scanners that we are using are brand new, and the model is: LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276mw. The issue has been duplicated on four computers and two scanners, in a Windows 7 x64 Enterprise environment. A video of the exact problem can be found here: http://uncoolcat.com/work/LaserJet_Pro_200_Color_M276.mp4
    Would somebody be able to help us resolve this issue?

    Hi Varinder,
    Thank you for the suggestion! We wound up figuring out a way to make their "full feature" software (which does include the TWAIN drivers) install mostly silently, and install only if they've connected the device locally to their computer, as noted in the other post that was submitted a few minutes ago. I really appreciate all of the help that you’ve given us!
    In order to duplicate the WIA driver issue, use only the “HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M276 PCL6 Print Driver (no installer)” (LJ-Pro-200-color-MFP-M276-driver-only-13170.exe) driver package. This driver only package doesn’t appear to have any of the files you mentioned in your previous post in the Scan_App folder for the TWAIN functionality (but those files are available in the “full feature” setup). We copied the entire “driver-only” folder to our plug and play driver folder, and the drivers automatically install. Once they get installed, there isn’t a TWAIN option anywhere to be found in any scanning application, just the WIA driver as far as I can tell. Adobe Acrobat 10 when using the ADF then skips some pages when scanning.
    However, now that you’ve found the install files for the TWAIN driver for the scanner, this should be a non-issue for people as they can just install those and use TWAIN instead, so thank you!
    Also, I find it rather amusing that you were able to help us with what appears to be an HP issue far better and faster than HP did or could. We spoke with seven people at HP, and not a single one of them pointed us in any useful direction or provide us with any useful information on the matter; had we followed any of their advice we would have lost countless hours (one person suggested taking the scanners apart and thoroughly cleaning the rollers, even though it was clearly stated they work fine from a hardware perspective with the full feature software installed and that they are brand new). So anyway, thank you. If you require anything else from us, let me know.

    This type of express document may cause due to over lap of number ranges and if the same transaction is run by diff users at same time...........................
    In your case there is change in number range assignment in current number.....
    Check the last consumed number in the system and assign the coming number range in current number...
    Hope this may help you.
