Problem in creating Info record for vendor -AFFI account group

Hi experts,
I am trying to create a info record for a material for a vendor -1000 which is of AFFI account group.
system in giving me an error saying that the material is not maintain in the plant 1000. However the plant i am working is for 2000 and the master data is maintained. I dont know why the system is giving a weird message taking the vendor code as the plant and giving the message " Material is not maintained in the plant"
I have created an info record for this same material with another vendor code of the same AFFI account group. I think i am missing something in the master data of the vendor.
Can anybody throw some lights on this.
regards
DP

I got the solution. Thread closed.

Problem with Creating Info Record

Hello Gurus,
I've problem with Creating Info Record
i tried to create info record for Plant Specific/Purchase Org
The first Screen General Data is OK
i entered all the data in the next screen ie
Purchase Organization Data screen but i'm getting error
<b>Make an entry in all required fields</b>
but there is Mandatory Textbox ie "VALID TO" which im unable to select Bcos its Disabled
pls help me regarding this
thanks in advance

Hi
Have u given the net price. <b>VALID TO</b> is the date until which the price shown in the info record is valid.
If there is no price that is valid on the current date, the last-valid price is displayed and the date field contains the day before the start of the next validity period (this may be 12.31.9999 if there is no further validity date). If all validit periods lie beyond the current date, the price of the next period is displayed. The date field then contains the end date of this period.
These validity periods we will maintain Purchse data CONDITIONS while creating info record. Check the validity period for the conditions.
Hope this will helps u

Purchasing info record for vendor's material number ONLY?

Hello gurus,
we have materials that must be ordered with refernce to a contract. We purchase these materials only from one vendor and exclusively using that contract (only one source of supply). We do need purchasing info records to store the vendor's material number.
Now, the problem is that if we have one contract and a purchasing info record, the system interprets the PIR as a second dource of supply. So, when I create a new PO, the price is automatically taken from the PIR and not from the contract.
Is it possible to create PIR's for the vendor's material number without creating a second soucre of supply?
Thanks in advance
Alicia
PS: I do know that i can use order lists but that does not solve the problem when manually creating a new PO...

why dont you maintain the vendors material number already in the contract item?
why do you create an info record that has a different price than the contract?

Subcontracting Info record for Same Vendor which is used in Purchasing vendor

Hi Gurus,
When we want to create info record for both standard and sub contract with one single vendor., system is not creating a separate info record.
It is considering the same Info record for all the options. This triggers error - Info record price does not match.
Reg,
Suresh

Yes.. That's correct. System will just update the same info record number.. But you should not face any problem for price fetching...
System will work properly for standard PO and subcontracting PO..
System will compare the item category of info record and PO line item, as per this comparison, system will pick the price from info record..
You can see in the above screen shot the value 3 indicates that it is for subcontracting PO.
Standard PO :
I am just changing the item category from blank to L.
Subcontracting PO:

such as in Material Master.
Can any one help me regarding this....

Error material not maintained by purchasing when creating info record

Hi Expert,
I have an issue when creating info record, error says "Material ******* not maintained by purchasing". I've checked in MM03 purchasing view, all has been maintained and at the bottom there is message says "No plant-specific data exist". Accounting view also maintained. I've also checked in MARC table for this material and plant. It existed. I cannot see anything wrong on the material master setup but not sure why am i having this error...
Please help.
Thanks,

Hi,
Error says "Material ******* not maintained by purchasing" & you checked purchasing view has been maintained.
OK. Just cross check following optionS
Option-1: You creating info- record for material with combination of plant & vendor....check did the material have purchasing view for same plant-the info-record you are creating!
Option-2: If no purchasing view for material with same plant , just extend in t.code MM50 for E Purchasing
Option-3: Check the material for same plant, did Procurement type F (External procurement) is there
Option-4: Check Profit Center in Plantdata/ sto-2 view of material.

Creating a Standard Info Record for multiple plants

We did some clean up in info records the other day and marked some old/incomplete info records for deletion down at the PO organizational data level (EINE). This went fine; however, now when we go to create another info record using the same info record number (because material and vendor is the same), but for a different plant (will be a separate entry in the EINE table), SAP automatically marks it for deletion because the previous entry is marked for deletion.
The one consistent thing I have noticed is that the old incomplete info record originally marked for deletion had a purchasing document attached to it. The document along with document date carried through the additional info records we tried to create for different plants.
Can someone tell me the reason this happens? Also, what can we do to prevent this? I would think you could have an info record marked for deletion in plant 1, and have a valid one for plant 2??

This is a program bug, please see OSS Note 742405 - Creating purchasing info record with deletion indicator

Import multiple info records for 1 material item in repository

Hi Guys,
I have got sort of a puzzle I can not solve at the moment, maybe some one can help me to solve it. The situation in our system landscape is as follows:
Systems:
SRM 5.0 (Classic implementation scenario)
ECC 6.0
SRM-MDM 2.0
PI 2005
Material master is maintained in R/3 and the materials are replicated to SRM. From SRM we replicate all materials to the catalog repository in SRM-MDM.
As the material master in R/3 is vendor independent, the materials replicated to SRM also have no vendor attached. For the first initial material replication from SRM to the catalog SRM-MDM this also means that the products in the main table of the repository, u2018catalog positionsu2019, will not have a vendor or vendor number attached (i.e. no reference to a source of supply).
To assign a source of supply in the repository to a product (record) we will use info records which are replicated from R/3 to SRM-MDM. The mapping for this in the Import Manager can only be based on the product number. As this is the only unique value available which can map a info record to a already existing (but vendor less) ptoduct item in the catalog.
As long as every item in the repository has only one unique info record, meaning one source of supply with a specific price, there is no issue in the above scenario. Based on the product-id, the info record data will be matched with the material item in the catalog.
The issue for me arises when multiple info records exists for the same material. The info records can heave different vendors and different prices. All possible vendors should be available in the catalog for the same material (at least this is the requirement ).
At this point the product-id will no longer be an unique value. Importing the info records will cause problems, as only one material record is available in the repository for the specific product-id (remember that when doing a initial replication of the material master to the catalog, no vendor data is replicated).
Does anyone had this issue before, and knows a solution? Is it for example possible during the import of the info records in the Import manager, to duplicate material records in the destination data, based on the number of info records available in the source data for the same product-id. Or is there an other solution that I am missing?
Your help would be appreciated!
Regards,
Skander

Hi Shai & Ravi,
Thanks for your answers. The MDM version which we are using is 5.5 - currently on SP6
@ Shai: you are right; the standard SRM-MDM 2.0 catalog repository has a qualified lookup table u2018priceu2019, in which itu2019s possible to store the info record data. The standard fields in this sub-table are: Purchase Org, Amount, Currency Lower B, PIR-ID, price based quantity and Price based quantity UoM.
I added some extra fields (non qualified), to accompany the remaining info record data (product no. u2013 vendor id u2013 product category) which is exported/imported, via the standard extraction program in R/3: Tcode MECCM
I tried the solution Ravi proposed. This scenario works fine when, for example you want to maintain multiple info records for one specific material record in the main table (all info records related to the same source of supply, i.e. vendor). But as I described, the info records we import for one product can have different vendors.
The source of supply (vendor) in the shopping cart of SRM is determined via the u2018supplieru2019 field in the main repository table (which is in itself a flat lookup table ). What happens now is that all related info records are added to the u2018price informationu2019 field of the specific product record in the main table. Thus info records which have different suppliers are attached to a record in the main table which will have one specific supplier in the u2018supplieru2019 field. So from my point of view this will not work.
I am still stuck with the situation that the material master import will only import one record for every distinct product, which can have multiple info records. The info records can/will have different vendors. As the supplier field in the main table determines the source of supply in the shopping cartu2026. Iu2019am seeking for a solution which will duplicate the material records in the main table, based on the amount of imported info records for that specific material record, that have distinct vendors.
Shai, if you have some useful info on how you accomplished this requirement on a previous version of SRM-MDM, it would be greatly appreciated if you can share it..
Thx.

Purchasing info records for PO-items without material master

Hi gurus,
I would like to have the system automatically determine certain settings (e.g. reminder/urging data).
For PO-items with material master there is no problem, because all information can be stored in the purchasing info record, and are automatically found when I enter the material number.
For items without material number/master I tried to generate a info record for the material group. When I enter the no. of the info record, everything works fine. But the info record is not automatically found, if I only enter the material group no.
Is there any way to make the system find the info record by itself?
Thanks
Alicia

Thanks to both of you!
Priyanka:
How can you create a source list for a material group? I thought this was possible for materials only!?
Of course, you cannot have more than one info record at a time for a material group. But one would be enough for me...
Dhruba:
Thanks for the advice, but I know how to manually select a info record. The point is, I'd like to have the system determine it according to the material group I enter.
Any other ideas?
Alicia

Purchase info record for material groups

Hi all,
We have purchase info records for material groups, not material specific. When I create and activate integration model for these info records, no info record is sent to APO. Is there a way to create Transportaiton Lanes automatically in APO?
Regards,
Jenny

Hi,
In APOPurchase info record is transfered as external procurement relationship.
Generally Transportation lanes are created automatically for plant to plant transfer when you define special procurement key in MRP view of material master accordingly.
In case of T. lane for vendor, automatic generation may not work. Still you may try using correct special procurement key + material specific vendor info record..

Info records for valuation types

Hi, Is it possible to have different info records for two valuation types of a particular valuation category with respect to different vendors?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi there
you can create the info record for the header material ( Valuation category level) since when you create the infor record,, It will ask you the material, Vendor, Plant and P organ,,
So it is simply asking as a material,,, not at valuation type level,, so automatically it is taking the header material(valuation category) it is a STD behaviour,,
Hope it clears,,
Thanks
