Non-Stock Info Record

Hello,
I want to create a non-stock info record for a vendor to specify information like days for reminder, to get this into my POs.
I created an info record for a vendor without a material, entered the material group and specified the data.
When I create a PO this data is not pulled out of the info record, unless I enter the info record number manually. Why does SAP not determine the info record automatically?
Another problem is that I have to populate some mandatory fields like order unit or planned delivery time in the info record. This data should not come from the info record.
Thanks for any help.
Tobias

Thank you for your help.
I want to store 'reminder days' for vendors which supply us with materials we do not have a material master for (mainly MRO material). This data should be pulled into each new PO so I do not have to enter it manually each time.
When I create such an info record I have to enter the material group. I thought SAP uses the vendor/material group combination to determine the info record.
Maybe there is another way to do this.
P.S. I tried it again with the correct purchasing group but it does not work...

Non stock material info record

Hi SAPERS,
Please let me know the difference between the stock material and non stock material info records, Is there any difference in creation of both records.
Thanks in Advance,
D Prasad

Hi,
When the IDoc for purchasing info records of a stock material is posted, if the purchasing info record for the material and the appropriate supplier does not already exist in the receiver system, the number of the purchasing info record is copied from the central system. Otherwise, the existing purchasing info record is updated.
· For purchasing info records for non-stock materials, the purchasing info record number is always copied from the central system. If a purchasing info record with the same number already exists, the system checks whether it has the same supplier and material group as the info record from the central system.

None approval process for Purchasing Info Record

Hi,
Are there some approval process in SAP for Purchasing Info Record?
Now, we use ME11 to creat Purchasing Info Record. And use ME12 to modify Purchasing Info Record. I feel it is very dangerous. Becase if someone make a mistake. Nobody know.
If the price is lower than actual price, vendor must ask us modify it. If the price is higher than actual price, I am not very sure what will happen.
So, we are seeking for an approval process in SAP system.

There is no approval process in standard,Since it serves as master.
Better provide authorization for ME11 & ME12 to restrict it.
Raise quotation to maintain vendor prices.

Calculation for subcontracting item of type N (non stock) as it for type L(Stock)

Hi Gurus,
I have a Requirement for calculating the cost for Subcontracting Non stock items N as it is getting calculated in standard functionality for subcontracting items of Type L.
This will be done in CK11n ( used to calculate the standard cost estimate of the product) for header as well as component materials.
please suggest the user exit or Badi where i can change.
Please refer the below logic-
BOM for the material 2000500 as Header and 1LPL0835298AB as a component and this component has an assembly with 7008508 as a component and this component is an Sub contracted item and this has an assembly with component 1LBA182151-3.
Price calculation for the material 7008508 (Item Category as N). Since this is sub contracted item the price will picked from field EINE-NETPR.
In EINA, pass the material (MATNR=7008508) to fetch the list of info records (INFNR) created for that material.
Then it has to input those info records to EINE table along with Purchasing organization (EINE-EKORG=PT02).
From the output of EINE table, it should compare the price (EINE-NETPR) of the PIR and should take the least price from those PIR`s.
If the currency is other than PLN, then it should be converted to PLN based on conversion charges.
For Material (MATNR=1LBA182151-3), it should pass the material number to table MBEW along with valuation area (BWKEY = WERKS).
From the output, it should check the Price control (VPRSV) ‘V’ or ‘S’
If ‘V’ the price will be picked from the field “VERPR”
If ‘S’ the price will be picked from the field “STPRS”
Also from the output, it should check the Price unit (PEINH) ‘1’ or other than ‘1’. If it is other than ‘1’ it should divide the VERPR or STPRS by PEINH. Then this is the price of the Material “1LBA182151-3”.
The material (MATNR=1LBA182151-3) should be passed to table “MARA” and will take the Base unit of measure from that table “MEINS”.

Mass Creation of Material Group Purchase info record

Dear All
Currently we are developing a custom transaction in SAP to mass upload Purchase Info records from a flat file (excel)
We are using the standard Function Module ME_POST_INFORECORD to create the PIR s
We use two different number ranges for Material and Material Group PIR s. This is set up already in SPRO>MM>PIR>Define Number Ranges
Purchasing info record for stock material (Group - IL ) have a number range X
Purchasing info record for material group (non-stock mat.)(Grpup -IN) have number range Y
So when we create a Material PIR manually in SAP it picks X number range and Y number range for Material Group PIR
But when we create Material Groups PIR via the new custom transaction it creates PIR s with Number range X.
Upon checking understood that the standard FM ME_POST_INFORECORD is always defaulting the Number Range Group as IL internally . Seems like a harcoding done by SAP
Wanted to know
- Is there any another FM we should consider while creating Material Group PIR s. Any other Function module provided by SAP for that ?
- Or what can be other way to resolve this ?
Please let me know your views on this.
Regards
Shyam

Hi,
For mass upload from flat files you can consider LSMW with different options e.g. IDoc:
Message Type INFREC
Basic Type INFRECMASS01
or simply via recording of transaction (this should be using exactly the same NR as you have when doing this manually).

During creation of NON stock material PO from where system will pick price

Hello All,
While creating PO for non stock material from where system will pick the price?
If info record is there from where it will pick, if info record is not there then from where it will pick like that...
If existing PO is there or not
if existing contract is there or not
For non stock material should we maintain the material master or ?
Please advise me
Thanks in advance

Its upto you if you want maintain material master record or not for non valuated material. With material master you have a material code to input in the field of PO, without material master you put in short text.

Info records pulling into purchase orders

I have created an info record for a material group only (i.e. without material master as it is for a non-stock item). It is my understanding that this creates a vendor-material group relationship. When creating a purchase order for this unique combination of vendor & material group, the info record information only pulls in if I physically type the info record number within ME21 (or choose it from the drop down list). I would have thought that given that there is only 1 info record for each vendor-material group relationship, that the info record info should pull in automatically. Is there any way of doing this?
My ultimate aim is to automatically pull in a tax code when each purchase order is created.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

you say ME21, is this a typo or do you really work with this old transaction?
Is your PO just for a text material, or do you purchase a material that has a material number?
If material with material number, then the info record for a material group will not come in, even the material group entered in the material is the same.
usually my process starts with a requisition, and next step is assign vendor e.g. with ME57, this assignment brings the info record into the game.

How to correct the net price of Purchase info record

Hi
When I create the purchase info record, I input the wrong net price.
And when I use ME12 to change the purchase info record, i find the net price cannot be modify.
How to resolve it?
Thanks a lot.

MR21 and MR22 are used to modify the value of the stock for the material.
I understand that you want to change the price in the info record and the field appears as non modifiable.
In order to modify this value, you should use ME12 and press F8 or the button Conditions and input a new price. Please note that you can also fix a time fence for validity of this data.
Hope it will help.

Number Ranges for Purchasing Info Record

Dear Guru's
Number range interval for Purchase info record can be created and assign to group and there are two group for Stock and Non Stock materials.
Now my query is how the system pick the number range ??? Since we don't have any assignment like PR,PO
My requirement is we have 3 company code - I need to have different number ranges for purchase Info record for each company . Guide me to achieve ...
Thanks in advance
Regards
Anand

SAP has provided only Two standard document Types for Pur. Info Records.
IL for Stock Material ( with matl No.)
IN For material Group (w/o MMR).
By default, if you enter Matl No. in the initial screen, system automatically picks the doc. type IL and the no. range assigned to it.
If you're not entered matl. no. in the initial screen, and proceed the Transaction further, system picks the doc. type IN and prompts you to enter Matl Group.
In the second case, the system picks up the no. range as per assignment.
Here in your case, you want create a new no. range and assign to your IL/ IN.
For this, you go to the transaction Define No. Ranges in Inforecord, from menu bar, choose Group-> maintain. Here you maintain your new no. range with a name. Now your new group is created with your required no. range.
Then select your new group ( Check box), select, IL, and click assign button and save.. Your IL is assigned to your new group and system picks the new No. Range when you are creating a Inforecord with Mat No. Similarly, you can change No. range for IN also.
or one more option you have.
In the first screen of No. Ranges Transaction, select change intervals tab button, you'll be goto intervals screen. There, from Menu bar, choose Interval-> change current No. Then you reset your current no. to Zero, save it. The again choose Change Interval, then in that screen, change the Interval with your new no. range.
Here in the second case, u need not maintain new groups. Just changing the Interval for the existing group.
You can adopt any one of these options.

Inspection for non stock parts

Hello guys,
I have the problem in inspecting the non stock parts. when the prod order has some non stock components attached to it....it generates the PR and I have convert it to PO to buy the non stock part.
When I receive it....it directly issuing to the prod order as PR generated from Prod order.But I wanted to come to inspection first and then issue to the prod order. and also it is not mandatory that all the non stock parts has to be inspected.they do inspection based by vendor.
Please note...we do inspection outside of SAP.No quality set up has been maintained.
how to handle this issue ? pls revert asap.
Akash.
Edited by: chidprakash on Jun 10, 2009 3:46 PM

Option 1:
Maintain 01 inspection type in material master
maintain info record with material vendor combination, if inspection not required for vendor then just select "No inspection" option in info record.
If you don't want to do inspection in SAP then create blank inspection plan, here no need to maintain MIC in plan. SO once system create lot then do UD of lot with stock posting.
Option 2:
Maintain 89 inspection type & create manual lot when required.
For this create blank IP with usage 9.
Hope this give you some idea.
Thanks!!!
