MRP creating a Purchase Requisition

All,
I have a user that uses MD04 to create a planned order into a Purchase Requistion on a daily basis. However, my ser is telling me that they sometimes go into MD04 and the system has automatically created the Purchase Requisition even though the user did not convert the pan order. Can someone to explain to me what setting is allowing this to happen. This is an area I am unfamiliar with.
Thanks,
Sean

Dear
There are following reason why MRP generetes PR rather than Planned Order :
1.In MD03/MD02/MD01-You might have selected Create PR indicator as 1 along with other MRP parameters like NETCH .
2.In material master MRP2 view , you must be assinged F-External Procurement for material or X-both in-house /external
3.If you have assinge MRP Group in MRP1 view for External item , then check in OPPR-Deifne MRP group whether you have marked Create Perchase Req .
4.Basically , MRP processing parameter used by you for "Create Purchase Requisation" field in MRP run it may be "2", what this means is that after MRP run, it creates purchase requisitions within the opening period and planned orders outside the opening period.If you always want PR to be created then use parameter "1" but if you want Planned Order then keep 2 or 3
Just check the re-scheudling horizon and planning horizon if any in OPPQ and test the same in same.I think when it is out side the opening period , it will generate Planned order .

MRP creating additional purchase requisitions for the existing sales order

Hi,
We have scenario where we switch materials from POD material to ARP material. POD material is just like make to procurement which creates purchase requisition and purchase order upon saving the sales order. ARP (Auto replenishment) material creates purchase requisition based on sales order and re-order point while running MRP.
When the material is POD title, it created purchase requisition and purchase order (example: 4500000110) while saving the sales order (example: 1000000010) for the quantity 10. After some time this material is switched to ARP and it has open sales order (1000000010) and purchase order (4500000110).
We have special MRP run for ARP materials based on MRP type, which creates purchase requisition.. What is happening is when we run MRP; it is creating new purchase requisition for the old sales order (1000000010) for the quantity 10. But old sales order (1000000010) is already having purchase order (4500000110) to fulfill. So we donu2019t want to create new purchase requisition for the old sales orders. It should create purchase requisition only for new sales orders.
Please advise
Thanks in advance

Mangesh,
If the components are Inhouse production then you can think of using collective orders by assigning special procurement key 52. If raw material exists then your requirement cannot be met..as i think your scenario is of assembly processing. The idea of assembly processing is that component materials will always be available and only assembly will be done based on Sale Order.

Is there any way to create a Purchase Requisition without Purchase Inf Rec?

Hi,
i am dealing with the Preq creation for services when there is not any previous contract and i have noticed that the vendor and the net price are posible to populate them directly in the Purchase Requisition. if then i try to run the ME59 it is not possible to automatically convert it to a Purchase order because there is no PIR (when i assign the source of supply in the Preq then the PO is correctly created using ME59).
I have been reviewing customizing but there is not any point related to that.
Someone knows if it is possible to create a Preq for services without PIR?
thanks
ivan

Hi,
For Service auto- PO from PR, you need to activate Automatic Purchase order creation for Service requisitions in ML91 t.code.
Note:
For material :automatic PO creation from PR, follow the steps.
1) Material Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box
2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.(ME01)
4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.(ME11)
5) Create a Purchase Requisition.(ME51)
6) Use T.Code: ME59 & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
During creation of PR , select check box of Source Determination in the 1st screen of ME51
Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
If you have more than one vendor then fixes only one vendor in source list.

Error when creating a purchase requisition in reference to a contract.

Hello All,
My client have a requirement that , He wants to create a purchase requissition with Item catogery-B and account assignment-K
with reference to a contract.
when we are trying to create a purchase requisition with Item catogery-B and account assignment-K
with reference to a contract the system is throwing an error: "Item categories in agreement and requisition incompatible".
I had searched for the relating documents and tried all the conbinations but could not find the solution.
Could any body help in this regard.
thanks in advance.

Hi Gayathri
I thought so. So that means you are unable to create a contract with the combination of K and B which is why you are not able to adopt it in the PR with the same results.
As far as entering the limit goes, you would be making a value contract in which you would have to enter the value of contract that you need to create for vendor. Also, for the second error, once you have created a contract with the particular account assignment, u cannot change it. You would have to create a new contract with the desired account assignment category and then try creating a PR. Hope this helps!

Error while creating a Purchase Requisition T Code ME52N

Dear Freinds,
The users are trying to create the Purchase Requisition, however the system gives the error message that the GL Account xxxxxx cannot be used, as the comparison of the field selection strings are not comparable with the Account Assignment Category E. Message no. is ME045. How could we resolve this?
Thanks for the help.
Regards

Dear,
check the FSG for the GL Account 200010 and go to TCcode OBC4 and check the status of field 'Asset number / subnumber' and then go to TCode OME9 and select A and check the field status for field 'Asset number / subnumber'. Status at both areas are different hence system is not accpting. Make status identical.

Best Practice while creating Contract, Purchase Requisition, Purchase Order

Hi
What is the best practice with respect to Contract & Purchase Requisition?
IN T Code ME31K, there is a button Reference to PReq, meaning that we can create contract with using Purchase Requisition. (We have done the same)
While creating the Purchase Order using Contract, we could find Purchase Requisition reference in the Purchase Order; similarly when we created the Purchase Order using Purchase Requisition, we could find Contract reference in the Purchase Order.
I have done the following:
1. Create a Contract.
2. Create a Purchase Requisition
3. Assign Requisition and Create Purchase Order using T Code ME57.
4. Create Purchase Order
Here in this case we could find references of both Contract & Purchase Requisition.
I just want to know what Practice should we adopt / advise while creating Contract, Purchase Requisition. & Purchase Order?
Regards,

Hi,
In ME51N Screen, enter Contract number in the "AGREEMENT" TAB and if more items in the contract, you can mention the item number in the next TAB to the AGREEMENT TAB and then proceed with creating PR by entering other details. This TAB you can find in the 4th column from extreme right end of PR screen.

How to create a Purchase Requisition for a material component in WBS or NW?

Hello All,
I have created a project with the following structure:
Project Defination (Construction of Sub station)
      Main WBS
               Level 1 WBS
                         Level 2 WBS
                                   Network for level 2 WBS
                                                  Activity (Procuring Material)
                                                             Material Component - MATXXX (Stock Item)
Now in the above structure i have a activity where in i am procuring all the materails required to construct a Substation.
So under this activity i have assigned all the materials which are needed to build Substaion.
After i change the status of the project to release, there a reservation created for the quantity of the material which i have mentioned in the material component under the activity.
Now my querey is, how should i create a Purchase requisition for the reserved materail quantity in order to bring in the stock against the WBS / network / Project ?
Awaiting your reply.
Thanks and Regards,
Sudarshan.

Hi Sudarshan,
In your case you can run Me5J to check the list of PR created against your project.
Then Create PO and similarly you can check list of PO in Me2J.
Then followed by GR and check if any GR release exist in MIGO. Then once after doing GR you can check the Material in Stock which will move material from Unrestricted stock to Project Stock which you can check it in MMBE.
Then you can do the Good Issue in MIGO itself and run MIRO to complete the cycle.

Heuristic run @ destination location is creating the purchase requisition without source plant

Hello All,
Trust you are doing well.
Believe this is the good time to connect with you all get some advice on the below mentioned scenario:
Material (XXXXXX) is discontinued at source location (Plant specific material status: 90) but the same material
(XXXXXX) is still used in destination location (plant specific material status: 60). Here heuristic run @ destination location is creating the purchase requisition without source plant.
Here the customer expectation is that “SNP should not create the order, since the material is discontinued in source plant”
Could you please advise?
Regards,
Prabin

Hi Prabin,
You can change the SNP profile to NO PLANNING automatically and exclude the target location from the SNP run. Maybe you can try using Badi: SMOD_APOCF005.
This is what I would do:
1- Do not exclude the status 90 in the iModel.
2- Then when you change the status in order to discontinue a material at the source location you will be changing the status from 60 to 90 and you will CIF this modification to APO. At this time, I would use the BAdI: SMOD_APOCF005 to identify this situation. You will need to add a code in order to identify what are the possible target plants of your source plant and you will need to change the SNP Profile at the target location.. look for a BAPI for this...
Take a look of this document to see an example code of SMOD_APOCF005:
APO SNP - Master Data Automation

So the stock of B is zero and we don't have material B for MO 1. I don't know why SAP does't have keep B and good issue only 4 for CO department. I wonder that why MRP generate one PR for component B instead of two PR.

Dear Hoai,
What is the strategy maintained for header materials, i guess it is MTO ( make to order )
If the strategy is MTO then go to MRP - 4 view for all components and make it as 1
Then check the result

Enter short text error when creating a purchase requisition using ME51

Hello
I would be grateful if someone can help. I am currently trying to raise a purchase req using ME51. The purchase req is for one item so i enter details of this item on line 1.
