Optional material group for services in purchase order

Hello to everyone,
does anybody know how can I put material group as optional instead of mandatory in purchase order for services?
Regards

Hi,
Can be done screen layout at document level in following path
SPRO->: MM -> Purchasing -> Purchase order -> Define screen layout at document level.
Click ME21N and then double/ click basic data/item and select check box of material group as optional entry and save.
Note: In t.code ML91, you can make  Material Group as default for  Service  PO.

  • Service entry sheet error.with new material group for services

    Dear Experts
    We need to create material group for  roll shop spare parts service,we created a new material group.
    when we are creating PR/PO with item category as D and a/c assignment K( entered cost center here).its giving error message
    as RC= 3M8 47 Account determination for entry JSL KBS J001 not possible(while making service entry sheet)
    after that i changed PR/PO and gave cost center and G/l account.now the service entry sheet is accepted.
    is it necessary give G/L account manually,if user chose wrong G/L account how to avoid this problem.
    please clarify me,
    do we need to assign valuation class for material group for services?(where to assign)
    or
    should assign G/L account manually to cost center while creating PR/PO
    Please clarify me

    Hi,
    Option-1:-- >
    Without creating material group and you can use your other service material group(existing service material group) and  create a service master  in AC03 as spareservice. Create a Service PO with text as roll shop spare parts service with other details as required like quantity of service, cost center & G/L account etc. After service being completed you can do SES in t.code: ML81N
    Option-2:-- >
    If you want report at the end based on different material/service group level, you can create a material/service group in OMSF for roll shop spare parts service and then you can assign to valuation class to material group in OMQW t.code. Then carry out regular process service order, SES etc.
    Based on requirement, you can enter G/L account manually or can set default G/L account in purchasing document with help of t.codes: OMSK, OMQW, OME9, OMGO & OBYC
    For error u201CAccount determination for entry JSL KBS J001 not possibleu201D, you cannot assign KBS transaction/event key to an account in OBYC t.code. Only you can assign G/L account to cost center with your CompanyCode in OKB9 t.code. Check the SAP note: 364570 & 106981

  • Material group for services

    Hello to everyone,
    does anybody know why it is necessary to fill up the material group field at item level when you create a purchase requisition for services with item category "D". Because when you create a purchase requisition for services, you include services items with their own services group, then I don't know why it is necessary to include the material group, too.
    Kind Regards.

    Dear Ignaciohsg,
    Please kindly check if your customizing have set this field as optional or required.
    SPRO:MM-PUR-PR-Define screen layout for PR.
    The issue might be that the 'Material Group' is a required entry at item
    level, as per your customizing .
    Field selection key PT9F -> Basic data, item.

  • GL account against Material group- For service procurement

    Hi,
    I have created a Service master, and assigned some material group. At entry aids settings in customization i have linked this material group with a Valuation class.
    At OBYC settings I linked this valuation class for GBB VBR combination to GL accounts, with an impression that system picks GL account automatically when ever we create PO for this Service.
    But this is not happening. Can any one please guide me how to achieve this?
    Regards,
    Sattuj

    Hi Sattuj,
    Follow the following steps
    1. Create Service Master (maintain valuation Class and Material Group)
    2.In OBYC, select WRX and enter chart of account and your GR/IR account in Debit and Credit tabs
    3.Create PO: Enter cost object( according to ur requirement ex..Cost Center"K" or  sales Order "C" or Project "P") and Item category "D" Service. Do not material here, just enter short text of service, material group and plant. Finally in item details enter activity number or service master you created in service  master , quantity and gross price.
    4.After entering above , again u will have a pop-up screen, you have to enter your G/L account here( created in as.....exm........Cost element for cost center or G/L for sales Order)
    Hope the above solve ur problems.

  • Where do I find list of material group for service material

    Hi,
    please any one tell , where do i find list of material group used for service materials?
    regards,

    Hi,
    What is the criteria u are using to find out material groups?? If it is on the basis of material type DIEN (services) then go for T code MM60 put material type and u will get all the materials with material groups which has material type as DIEN.
    Also u can directly go to SE16 and in T023 table find all the material groups.

  • MM-SRV: Adopt Material Group from Service Master instead of default in SPRO

    At my current client we are encountering a problem when creating requisitions for services.  When the system was originally configured years ago, a default value for material group was entered in the IMG under:
    Logistics > Materials Management > External Services Management > Source Determination and Default Values > For Client
    Field is "Default material group at item level" (V_T165-MATKL)
    Up to now this singular default value was fine because they only had one material group for services.  They are now wanting to further stratify their services spend, so there are now several additional values for Material Group that can (and are) used among their service master records.  Having a single default value for Material Group is resulting in incorrect reporting of spend per Material Group.
    I removed the default value in the config node stated above, but now the problem is that when creating a requisition line for services (item category D) in ME51N, no value for Material Group comes in at all, resulting in an error because Material Group is a mandatory field.  Making the field optional on the Field Selection Groups is not a valid solution, as they need Material Group for spend reporting.
    What we really need is for the Material Group to be automatically copied over from the service master data, in the same manner that this takes place for the material group contained in a material master.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jason

    Hi,
    Hi,
    1) If service master is used in the PO item, then the system will take the                    
    material group from the service master (AC01). 
    2) If no service master is maintained then the system will take the                 
    material group from the table T023. To be able to change this material group on services level - if you want a different material group on services level, you must set the field ESLL-MATKL for visible in the table control settings, and the change of the service group must be carried out manually.
    Please be advised that it is the standard behaviour that the material               
    group on service level is not updated automatically after you have                  
    changed the material group on purchasing level. The material group on               
    service level must be adjusted manually.                         
    3) By default for service lines the system will consider the material              
    group which is entered at the Item level.                                                                               
    Services can have different material groups, therefore you can change               
    the material group at service level. The material group in service line             
    can be different and always takes higher priority from the material                 
    group at the item level.

  • Change material group for an existing material

    Hi all,
    What is the steps to change a material group for an existing material?
    Is there any impact on the reports if I were to change the material group of an existing material?
    Thanks and regards,
    JT

    Yes, You can change in MM02 and also while changing you will get the folloeing Warning message..
    You are changing material group, but material already used by purchasing
         Message no. M3531
    Procedure
         When changing the material group of a material that is already being
         used by the purchasing department, you should note that:
         o   The purchasing statistics show how much of a material group has
             already been ordered. Unitl the change is made, the material is
             managed under the old material group and therefore the old material
             group statistics are updated. From the moment the change is made,
             the new material group's statistics are updated.
         o   Some purchase orders may derive from contracts with item categories
             referring to material groups. If this is the case, the material
             cannot be used after the change has been made.
         o   Every purchase requisition is allocated to a release strategy that
             can depend on the material group. A new release strategy may apply
             to a new material group. Purchase requisitions that were created
             before the change are subject to the old strategy; purchase
             requisitions that were created after the change are subject to the
             new strategy.

    e.g. If the total value for the Purchase Order exceeds 10,000, release strategy 01 is assigned to the Purchase Order. There is only one characteristic created in this example. For controlling the Purchase Order type, create characteristic for CEKKO-BSTYP and the value NB.

  • Goods receipt through Inbound delivery for Sub-Contracting Purchase order

    Hi
    I am trying to do goods receipt for the inbound delivery /shipping notification created for a sub -contracting Purchase order. The Finished product and the component part are batch managed, When I try to perform PGR in VL32N , I am getting a blank screen as error message and Goods receipt is not getting triggered . I checked for OSS note and found 645119 close to my issue but not an exact match . We are in ECC 6.0 with EHP 4. Can some one clarify whether it is possible to post GR through inbound delivery for a Subcon Purchase order .
    Thanks in advance for your immediate response.
    with regards,
    Joseph Anand B

    Hi, The issue may be due to this - the component is batch managed but the batch data is blank in the component list of the Purchase Order Item. Or a batch is maintained in the PO item component list but the stock for the same batch is not available with Vendor, i.e. stock with some other batch may be available.
    In a receipt for Sub-cont PO, 101 happens for FG and 543 happens for component. But there is no option to provide the component details in a delivery. So in standard system, when 101 happens via a delivery, 543 will be posted in the background. So any error in posting 543 will result in a blank screen without any error message.
    You can fix this by maintaining correct batch in the PO component list.
    But there is another issue - you cannot do 'cancel posting' and 'return delivery' for this receipt. Only you can reverse the inbound delivery and you should know that the  recevied stock shouldn't have been processed to do reversal of inbound delivery.
