NB Purchase Order instead of STO

We'd like to use a NB purchase order with vendor in order move finished goods from one plant in a company code to another plant under a different company, we need to use the NB PO with a vendor to record the dollars and charge. The only item I'm stuck on is auto assigning a specific plant and storage location to the material on the PO that carries over to the NLCC delivery, so far the storage location is plant when I create the NLCC delivery. Can somebody clue me in on where to maintain the vendor/plant/storage location data, when I use vendor 300XXX I want it to fill from a particular plant and storage location.
Many thanks!

Basic settings for STO process:
1.Maintain the shipping data for plants
>Materials Management - Purchasing - Purchase Order - Set Up Stock Transport Order - Define Shipping Data for Plants
>Here you maintain the customer number of the receiving plant (XD01). This customer number is used in SD shipping processing to identify the GR (ship-to party) if provision has been made in Customizing for a stock transfer to be carried out with an SD delivery.
>Assign Sales Area to the plant.
2.Specify whether an SD delivery is to be created in the case of a PO
>Materials Management - Purchasing - Purchase Order - Set Up Stock Transport Order - Assign Delivery Type and Checking Rule
3.Assign Doc type to supp. and recv. plants
>Materials Management - Purchasing - Purchase Order - Set Up Stock Transport Order - Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance

Creation of Purchase Order Instead of Purchase Requisition

Dear Gurus,
In Extended Classic Scenario we are using SRM 5.0 and ECC 6.0. we need to create only Purchase Order rather then Purchase Requisition. this is given as the development enhancement. can anyone of you tell me the procedure to go about this requirement.
In the following step : " Go to SRM --> SRM Server --> Cross Application Settings --> Define Objects in Backend System --> go to external procurement and select the function from the drop down box", it says "purchase order if item data is complete, otherwise Purchase Requsition.
So i am not sure that this will fulfill my requirement. need some help from you guys.
Thanks in Advance,
Mohit.

Hi Mohit,
I have gone through your query. It says you are working in Extended classic scenario.
If you want to create a P.O directly after creating a shopping cart in SRM, maintain the following settings
SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > SOURCING > Define sourcing for product categories
In that maintain category I.D, Source system and Sourcing never carried out in sourcing tab.
After maintaining these settings, once you create a shopping cart and assign a vendor in the shopping cart it will directly create a P.O instead of going to sourcing **** pit.
In case if you don't assign any vendor in Shopping cart it will still create a P.O but kept in held status. The P.O gets released once you assign a vendor.
In case you require further calrification feel free to ask.
Also reward points for suitable answers.

Purchase order UOM in STO

Hi,
When i create PO, the order UOM is Rolll automatically. It is correct scenario. However, when I create STO with the same material, the order UOM is M. How can I make it as Roll which is not require to change manually. Pls advice. Thanks
Order unit = Roll
Bace unit = M

Hi,
Create a info record in the receiving plant for material and vendor(supplying plant)
Maintain the order unit as Roll in the info record.Then when you are creating a purchase order with the supllying plant and material, system will automatically copy the order unit from the info record.

Miro Material documents instead of purchase orders

Hi,
I'm working with SAP/R3 release 4.7.
I have this problem: in previous releases i had possibility to use transaction MIRO specifing document materials in details screen.
Now I have the only possibility to specify purchase orders instead of material documents. I need to specify materials documents.
I tried to use enhancement LFDCB001 but it looks not good to solve my issue.
Have anybody any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Stefano Manetti.

Hi,
Procurement Key for raw material should be = F (External procurement) at MRP view of Raw material. But if you have put as E (Internal Production) for raw material. That is the reason system generates the planned order instead of Pur Requisition.
Note: I hope for your materuila Procurement Key would F would be grayed out so if you want to change it already our Expert Mr.Brakhmkar has replied to this queery.
Request you to search in forum before you raise a query.

Validity start & end, in Purchase Order with limit

Hi All,
We are using a model of SAP with one type of Purchase Order: we have created a new type of purchase order (ZFOA), that we use for all purchase orders.
Now we want to use ZFOA also for Blanket Purchase Order, instead of the standard type proposed for this scope by SAP (FO).
We have inserted Validity Start & Validiti End as Optional Entry in Customizing.
( IMG - MM - Purchasing - Purchase Ordrer - Define Screen Layout at Document Level).
We have inserted them as Optional Entries, and not as Required Entries, because they are Required only for Blanket Purchase Order. (and we use ZFOA for all ours types of Purchase Order)
So i want to know if it's possible to connect the obligatory requirement of these two entries to:
- ZFOA (type of Purchase Order)
- B (Item category in Purchase Order)
In this way:
1) when i create a PO (ZFOA) without item category B --> Validity date & Validity End are not obligatory fields
2) when i create a PO (ZFOA) with item category B ---> Validity date & Validity End are obligatory !!
Have you got any Solutions??
Best regards
Alba

Thanks very much!
Now i found in MM SAP Manual (SCM 520, Purchasing) a similar example, and it could seem possible:
When creating a standard purchase order with the standard item category, the following field selection key is determined for the Material group field:
Field selection key ME21N (Create/Change Purchase Order transaction):
The Material Group field is an optional field.
Field selection key AKTH(Create activity category):
The Material Group field is an optional field.
Field selection key NBF (purchasing document type NB):
The Material Group field is an optional field.
Field selection key PT0F (item category Standard):
The Material Group field is a mandatory (required-entry) field.
The combination of field selection keys ME21N, AKTH and NBF means that the field is an optional field. Because the Material Group field is defined as a mandatory field in the field selection key PT0F however, this means that the field requires an entry when a purchase order is being created.
I have the same problem for Validity start field, but why if i do all of this things, the field remain not mandatory?
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Status in purchase order

1.Where do i see the workflow for a purchase order.
2. There are 6 status in purchase order, can someone give me the link or document about the status?
Regards
Sudharshan

1. Workflow for a PO can be seen from the navigation given below.
Purchasning > Purchase Orders > Purchase Order Summary > Inquire (M) > View Approval through workflow.
2. Use the Control Documents window to control requisitions and requisition lines as well as purchase orders, purchase order lines, releases, and shipments. For requisitions, the only available actions are Cancel and Finally Close. Only control options appropriate for the selected requisition or purchase order are displayed in the Actions field. The following control actions are available in this window:
Cancel - If you use on-line requisitions, and you cancel a purchase order you did not receive or pay at all, Purchasing cancels the requisition lines associated with the purchase order if the Cancel Requisitions check box is selected. If the Cancel Requisitions check box is not selected, the requisition lines are not cancelled and are returned to the pool of available requisitions. You can then assign these requisition lines to new purchase orders to fulfill your requestors' needs. See: Defining Control Options.
If you use on-line requisitions with quantity or amount based line types, and you cancel a partially received purchase order line, Purchasing recreates requisition lines for the remainder of the maximum of the billed or received quantity you have not received. You can assign these requisition lines to a new purchase order line to fulfill the requestor's needs. See: Autocreate Document Options. If you have implemented Oracle Services Procurement and use on-line requisitions with rate or fixed price line types, no requisition lines are recreated.
If you are using encumbrance or budgetary control, Purchasing automatically creates negative debit entries in your general ledger system to cancel the encumbrance that corresponds to the purchase order header, lines, or shipments you are cancelling, using the action date you specify in Action Date. Purchasing recreates requisition encumbrances for the requisition lines you used to create the purchase order if the Cancel Requisitions check box is not selected. Purchasing uses the distributions from your cancelled purchase order to recreate the encumbrance for your requisition. See: Budgetary Control and Online Funds Checking.
After you partially or completely cancel a purchase order, you need to inform your supplier of the cancellation. You can communicate purchase orders or releases you partially or completely cancelled. Purchasing automatically inserts a cancellation message on the purchase order, purchase order line, purchase order shipment, or release you cancelled.
You can source a requisition line from a line in the Prior Purchases region of the Supplier Item Catalog window. (A line in the Prior Purchases region corresponds to a purchase order line.) However, Purchasing does not automatically update the corresponding sourcing information if you cancel a blanket agreement or agreement line with which you source requisition lines. If you cancel a blanket agreement or agreement line, be sure to update the corresponding information in the Requisition Templates or the Sourcing Rules window. See: Defining Requisition Templates. See: Automatic Sourcing.
Close - You can close at the header, release, line, and shipment levels.
Close for Invoicing - You can close for invoicing at the header, release, line, and shipment levels. Note that if you close for invoicing a purchase order header that is currently open, Purchasing sets the status of all purchase order shipments to Closed for Invoicing, but the purchase order lines and header remain open. This status will not prevent you from matching an invoice to the purchase order or to the receipt.
Close for Receiving - You can close for receiving at the header, release, line, and shipment levels. Note that if you close for receiving a purchase order header that is currently open, Purchasing sets the status of all purchase order shipments to Closed for Receiving, but the purchase order lines and header remain open.
Finally Close - You can final close at the header, release, line, and shipment levels. Purchasing automatically closes fully billed and received purchase orders. However, to prevent further actions on the purchase order, you should use this window to final close purchase orders. Finally Close prevents modifications to the purchase order. Also, if you are using encumbrance or budgetary control, Finally Close automatically creates credit encumbrance journal entries in your general ledger system to reverse the encumbrance that corresponds to the purchase order header, lines, or shipments you are closing, using the action date you specify in Action Date. See: Budgetary Control and Online Funds Checking.
Freeze - You can freeze only at the header and release level. You freeze a purchase order when you want to prevent any future modifications to the purchase order. When you freeze a purchase order, you can still receive and pay for goods you already ordered. If you want to prevent future receipt or matching invoices against this purchase order, cancel or final close the purchase order instead.
On Hold - You can place a purchase order on hold only at the header level. This unapproves the purchase order while preventing printing, receiving, invoicing, and future approval until you remove the hold.
Open - You can open at the header, line, and shipment levels.
Open for Invoicing - You can reopen for invoicing at the header, line, and shipment level.
Open for Receiving - You can reopen for receiving at the header, line, and shipment level.
Release Hold - You can release a hold only at the header level.
Unfreeze - You can unfreeze only at the header and release levels.

STPO(Stock Transfer Purchase Order) urgent

Hi,
I am working on a report about open STPO. I need pick up the PO data both in header and items level. Such as PO No., doc. date, item No.,delivery schedule (item detail infomation), DN No., DN Qty etc.
if one item has one schedule line, there is no problem to get the DN data(even more than one DN), but if there're two or more schedule lines within one item, I can't find the link between the schedule lines and DNs. I can't decide which DNs generated by schedule line1 and which DNs generated by schedule line2
I get some data of item schedule lines from table EKET. and pick some data from tables EKBE,LIPSi don't know how to link up these two parts of data? Can anyone do me a favour?
what should i do? is there any table or function with the relation of them? THS

Check your STO settings as per below

2. Assign this vendor to Delivering plant
Go to XK02 >Purchasing view>Extras>Add. Purchasing data>Plant

Assign the document type NB to supplying plant and receiving plant
10. Maintain both Purchasing & Sales view for the material
11. After all settings , Create the STO using T-Code:ME21N and maintain pricing conditions of freight and Save.

Copy Pricing COnditions from Shipment Cost do to Purchase Order

Hi:
How can I copy all freight conditions on shipment cost document to the Purchase order created.
e.g. In shipment cost document a\I have following pricing conditions.
ZFRT - Freight - $250.00
ZFCL-Fuel Chrg - $25
ZCLN-Cleaning Chrg - $30
Total = $305 on shipment cost
When Purchase order is generated automatically.
I want same conditions on Purchase order instead of gross amt PB00 of $305.
How can we copy conditions from Shipment cost doc to the Purchase order??

Hi,
First of all I don't think that it is possible in the standard system. SAP only transfers the total cost of shipment to MM as you already found out.
Actually, if I remember well, the cost condition is transfered to a service entry sheet assigned to the purchase order item for the service agent.
From SAP help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/93/74413b546011d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
Purchase Order Determination
Transfer and creation of the relevant documents in FI
Transferring Shipment Costs to Accounting
Transferring of shipment costs in order to create accruals comprises two functions:
Procedure
   1. In the shipment cost document, go to the detail screen of a shipment cost item, for which costing and account assignment has already been carried out and which you want to transfer to FI.
   2. Select the Transfer indicator. ...
   3. Save the shipment cost document.
When you save, the system creates a service entry sheet with reference to the purchase order determined, an accounting document for creation of accruals and further documents in FI.
IMHO it is good enough to transfer the total cost of shipment. It is the amount needed for accrual, and used afterwards for logistics invoice verification based on the automatically generated service entry sheet.
Why do you want more details in MM if you already have the detailed data in the Shipment cost document?
It is not the answer you want, but I hope it helps anyway.

Purchase Order Quantity appear as 1 instead of 0.222 in PO print preview

Hello MM Enthusiasts,
I have a PO with acct assgt – P (Network) where Purchase order quantity updated as 0.222 but if I click on PO print preview the quantity appear as 1 instead of 0.222.
Please let me know what has gone wrong in my case.
PS: When I look at my Output type by click on message in ME23N the traffic light was green and no issues observed here.
Cheers,
Kumar S

Hello ALL,
Thanks for the response.
This is a REAL issue.
The purchase order has been created manually by user with reference to purchase requisition.
When I look at Purchase requisition in transaction ME53N it has been created for 0.222 quantity. Further to inform you that Purchase requisition has been created via network which is having the same quantity – 0.222.This I can verify it by executing transaction CJ20N.
In this case Purchase order which has been created user manually and initially quantity has been entered as 0,224 later on date - 23.03.2014 another user has changed it to 0.222 which is as similar to Purchase requisition quantity.
Please let us know via transaction OLME what needs to be checked.
Hope now issue is clear and expecting your valuable input to proceed further.
Cheers,
Kumar.S
