Problem during Auto PO Creation

Hi
   Im using a user exit for Auto PO functinality ..
   I have following conditions for creation of Auto PO
   1) For PR with source of supply as Info record will not be converted in PO automatiocally as Info record contains historical prices..
   PR can be assigned source from Source list, contract or quota arrangment for converting it in PO automatically.
    I have maintained all settings require din VM and MM for Auto PO creation..
   Still these PR which satisfies above criterion are not converted in PO automatically..
   when i tried to convert these PR in PO using me21n , i get the message as conditions not mainined so i have to maintain conditions and net price manually..
then PO can be created manually..
so what im missing for Auto PO functionality..
Thanks..

Hi,
I would recommend that you add your contract data to the source list for the material, then you will see it proposed as a possible source for this material.
The problem with source lists are that if you do not have one the system will propose all existing sources for you to choose from. If you DO have a source list the system will ONLY propose sources from that source list.
One option is to use the auto generation transaction ME05 as a regular batch job to keep the sources up to date.
But if you want the outline agreement to be the proposed source when there are others to choose from then select this as the default in the source list.
So I think that your problem is that your agreements are not in the source lists that you have.

Problem during automatic PO creation

Hi,
I have run MRP for a certain material using MD03 .Message shows MRP run successfully.Then I checked the status of this by using transactions MD04 and it shows the PR no for that material.But when I want to create automatic PO through ME59n using that PR no , message shows no suitable PR exist.I have also set the Automatic PO indicator in Material master Purchasing view.
What is the reason behimd it.

Hi,
For automatic PO creation follow the below points.
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.
4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.
5) Create a Purchase Requisition.
6) Use T.Code: ME59N & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
If you have more than one vendor then fixe only one vendor in source list.
Did you set source determination during PR creation

Problem during material variant creation

Hi Guys,
I am trying to create material variant in MM01. I entered configurable material let's say DESKTOP. nOw i have partial variant scenario so instead of entering all 30 characteristics i need to enter only 3 characteristics.These 3 charcteristics based on which partial matching will happen in sale document.
My requirement is as out of 30 , TEN chars. are maintained as required entry. So system is asking me to enter all 10 required chars. in material master which my scnario don't want.But the same is required in Sales document.
How to remove this required entry in case of material master creation and keep required entry in sales order or quotation?
Regds

Hi,
You can decide whether it is mandatory to assign a value to a characteristic on the basis of transaction code.
You must use [selection condition|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/92/58d455417011d189ec0000e81ddfac/frameset.htm] which calls the [user-defined function|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/92/58d455417011d189ec0000e81ddfac/frameset.htm]. In function you need to analyze sy-tcode and raise the predefined exception FAIL for those when you don't want to assign a value to a characteristic (e.g. mm01, mm02). Contact your ABAP team to create such a function.
Don't tick the characteristic as required entry in class definition but assign this selection condition to this characteristic in class.

Problem during Process Order creation

Hi,
I have problem while creating Process Order.
I have maintained all the basic data required to create the process order.
When I Release the order, I am able to create the control recipe also, but PI sheet is not generated along with it. System gives the message "No PI maintained in customising for CRD for which control recipe is to be generated "
If I maintain the same, then system is unable to create the control recipe.
What may be the problem here? What i can do to rectify this situation?
Pavan

Hi Pavan,
1. Maintain PI in SPRO of process management
2. Assign this PI to one of phse in master recipe
3. Plz check wheather ur created Control receipe destination or not.
4. if not then maitain the same in Spro.
5.Check the ordre type dependent parameter i.e COR4 from SPRO
see the Control recipe gerated in REL phse else maintai the asme in production scheduling profile.
if possible plz send the sctren shot fir the same to
[email protected]

Batch number format setup and auto batch creation during first GR

Dear all,
This is a batch question.
I know that both the master batch and the stock data for the batch are created automatically during the first goods receipt. Thus, I do not need to create this data manually.
My question are following:
1 - what is the machnism that trigger this auto-batch creation in the system during the first goods receipt? is it from some kind of configuration?
2 - If I want my batch number to appear in certain format, for example, first four digit is customer code, middle two code is country code (i.e. US, UK), and the remaining as goods receipt date. How do I setup this in the SAP system.
3 - If batch classification is active, one can assign characteristic values to the batch when entering the goods receipt. HOwever, normally when I perform a goods receipt in MIGO, after putting in the production date and the batch number, I will hits the checkbox and if no problem, I will post the 101 document. WHERE in the MIGO screen I can assign the characteristic value to the batch?
Thanks.

I just wanted to expand on this for the sake of others who may need a bit more detail, having just resolved my similar problem.
In Oracle Enterprise Manager, in the left-hand tree view, expand Security then Users inside the relevant Databases entry.
Then select the name of the user/schema which needs to be able to perform the required task (in my case, create a spatial index from within a stored procedure).
On the System tab in the right-hand pane, highlight
Create Any Table
Create Any Sequence
Create Any Index
(depending on the task that needs to be performed)
Click the arrow to move these items into the "Granted" area. Click apply and your prayers have been answered. Mine were, anyway!

Problem during creation of shipment document and shipment cost document

Hi
My client facing problem during creation of shipment document and shipment cost document at the time of Batch Job
Delivery no 897654: goods issue on 30.11 at 13:22. Shipment on 30.11 (VT01N).
Shipment costs on 1.12 (VI01).
the problem is the shipment document get created on 30.11.2010 but the shipment cost document get created on 1.12.2010
pleas advice.

Hi,
Please check the batch job processing log.
As per my understanding, business requires to generate the Shipment & Shipment cost documents immediatley.
However there is some time between the documents creation time. I dont see any issue in the data or problem in the delivery docs Because system will not generate the shipment docs after 1 or 2 days if there is an issue with the data . There must be problem in the Batch Job.
Analyse the batch jobs and timing of the job process.
Let us know your feedback...

Hi,
Config setting.
Settings for Automatic PO creation is:
1. Select the Automatic PO check box/option in Purchasing view of material master
2. Select the Automatic PO option in the purchasing data view of Vendor master
3. Maintain Purchase info record
4. ME56- Assign the vendors to PR's
5. ME58- Create PO via assignment list(PR-> PO)
6. ME57- Assign and process PR's
7. ME59N - Create PO automatically via PR
Above step by step procedure is involved in the Automatic PO creation.

Update VEKP-EXIDV2 during automatic HU creation from outbound delivery

Hi All,
I need your suggestion / input on following scenario.
When I create an outbound delivery and save it, an automatic Transfer Order is created and at the same time an HU is created for delivery.
Now, I want to populate the field VEKP-EXIDV2 ( HU header -- Handling Unit's 2nd External Identification) with a specific logic.
Can anyone suggest a suitable EXIT or BADI or Enhancement point where I can populate the field VEKP-EXIDV2 ?
Note: I have tried using EXIT_SAPLV51S_001 and also BADI_HU_MAIN, but it is not helping in my case.
Because it is called only when Transfer Order is created manually (LT03), but is not triggered when TO is created automatically after saving the outbound delivery.
Thanks & Regards,
Devendra

Hi Ankur,
I am not going into HU creation screen in VL02N. There is some setting on functional side to create the automatic TO and HU during outbound delivery creation.
When I save the delivery, an entry in HU header table (VEKP) gets created automatically. I want to populate the field VEKP-EXIDV2. But, the EXIT or BADI as mentioned in my previous post is not helping in this case.
I would appreciate if you can throw some light in resolving this problem.
Thanks.
Devendra

Item Category Determination during Sales Order Creation

Dear All,
This is Chee Wee, i'm new to SD, i would like to seek for an advice for the topic related to Item Category in Sales Order.
We have a material "Mat005" define as "Stocked" Item category in MM03,
*Stocked means our MM team will always keep stock for the material.
The document Item category assigned to this "Stocked" are "NoPo" --> No Auto Po creation and "AuPO" --> AutoPo creation.
During the SO creation for Mat005 with Qty50 and warehouse stock availale for 60, i'm wondering when i select the itemCat "AuPO", the system automatic changed to "NoPO", but when i change the order qty to 70, then i'm able to changed the itemcat to "AuPo"!!
Can any Guru advice me what is the actual setting or configuration behind to determine which are the correct Item Category that i can choose?
Thank you very much,
Regards,
Chee Wee

Dear Chee Wee,
Basically tem category will determine based on these key combination
Item category group(Material master)+Sales document type(We enter doc type in the creation initial screen)--->Item category
For Example NORM+OR--->TAN.
As per your explanation
I hope In your case stock availability also one of the factor in the item category determination.This might have done some enhancement.
There are two item categories in your process one is "NoPo" --> No Auto Po creation and second one is "AuPO" --> AutoPo creation.
the system automatic changed to "NoPO", but when i change the order qty to 70, then i'm able to changed the itemcat to "AuPo"!!
60 Qty Stock available, you have created sales order for 50 Qt here requirement is less than stock availability so system will not allow you to enter AuPo item category Because there no need of auto PO creation for stock.
When you created sales order for 70 Qty, stock available only 60 so there is shortage of 10 Qty.now system needs to allow to create Auto PO to procure the shortage stock of 10 Qty, so system is allowing you to enter Yaupon item category.
There might be some work around kind take help of ABAPer to get the more details about your item category determination.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Problem during recording of CJ01 transaction for BDC

Hello All,
I am facing a problem during the recording of CJ01(Creation of projects) for creation of BDC program.
The problem is during recoding after entering the the first WBS element with level 1 and i press the '+' button to create one more WBS element with Level 2,the first WBS element with level 1 goes to the bottom of the line item table and now if try to create the WBS element with Level 2 in the first line it wont allow because of the fact that the first WBS element with level 1 is below it.
But if i enter the first WBS elemnt with level 1 in the first line and come to the next line and enter the second WBS element with level 2 it will create since Level 2 WBS is below the Level 1.But this approach cannot be used for doing a recording for BDC.
Can anyone help in this regard
Thanks in Advance
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
NW is right. It is not proper to use BDC for CJ01. You can get more control and better if you use the following function module,
1. Use BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN to create project definition and WBS Structure in one go. see the documentation in the BAPI on how to use this. Post the resut in this forum if you face any problem

How will i fill these field. Any link from info record or source list. These field are necessary in PO.
Please anybody help me to solve this issue.

Yes Sir. You have said the right thing. At first i have done the same that make these fields optional. but here as per our business these fields are mandatory for PO. Is there any other way that we forcefully enter data in these fields.
And one more thing i want to ask, i have created PR through MRP run, in this how could i maintain fixed vendor, valuation type, purch org, info record. These all things are necessary to create auto PO creation. Now what are we doing that we create PR through MRP run and then go to change PR enter all these thing and then run ME59N. After that the same problem some fields are blank in PO.
Please suggest me any other way to maintain this....

Auto PO creation using purchase requisition

Hi,
I have tried the following steps for auto PO creation using purchase requisition.
i. Maintain Auto PO in Material master Purchasing view
ii. Select Automatic purchase order in Vendor master- Purchase data
iii. Maintain info-record
iv. Create PR through ME51
v. enable source determination during creation of PR
vi. Execute using ME59N
But Auto PO is creating with the same document type (e.g NB) which is used while creating purchase requisition (e.g NB). Following steps have done in SPRO.
1. SPRO - MM - Purchasing - purchase requisition - define document type
a. NB- PR document type LINK TO DI01- PO document type
2. SPRO - MM - Purchasing - Purchase order - Define document type
a. DI01- PO document type LINK TO NB- PR document type
3. There is no linking from NB - NB & DI01 - DI01 but still it is creating auto PO with document type NB iif requisition has been created with document type NB.
Please suggest on this . waiting for ur quick response.
Thanks...
ARATI.

2. Auto PO check for Vendor
3. Sourse list / Info-record

Guru's
Apologies if this is the wrong place to post.
My user is facing a problem during creation/release of PR. He does the valuation of required quantities by rupees 1/- and once he moves to save it , the system gives error budget exceeded and when we go through the process we see that the system is valuating the required quantity by rupees 222/- automatically.
there is enough available budget already in the WBS/Project.
