Procure-to-Pay Scenario. Create Purchase Order

Hello Experts: I have a question regarding the Procure-to-Pay scenario and the Create PO functionality.
we are in SRM 7.0, Classic Scenario and we try to implement the Procure-to-Pay functionality as it is described in OSS note 1263876 "SAP SRM: Configuration of Procure-to-Pay Scenario".
Our idea is to transfer Purchase Requisitions from ECC6 to SRM using the CPPR application. But we will also take advantage of the integration with MM provided with this scenario.
If you are familiar with this, you will already know that, using the harmonized role for operational purchaser (ERP/SRM) an end user can create Purchase Orders in the backend. Our question is related to this functionality.
Using this role, the buyer can select Purchasing Documents under the detailed navigation area and, from there, he will have access to create Shopping carts, Purchase requisitions, Purchase Orders and Purchase order responses.
If we select Create Purchase Order, the application "Purchase Order: New" gets opened. Here we have to select the system where we want to create the new PO: either SRM or ECC6. Our first question is: As we are running a Classic scenario, why are we asked to select between SRM and ECC6?. It should be only ECC6, shouldn't be?
In any case, the SRM systems gets selected by default when we open "Purchase Order: New" appl. and bellow this field, you can see the PO types customized in SRM. If we change the system to ECC6 we see the following: "Number of purchase order types: 0" . So, no PO types are available. this is the second question: why do we have 0 PO types to be created when we select the ECC6 system? is there a missing customizing where we have to define which document types are vaialable to create POs in ECC6 from SRM Portal?.
To summarize: only ECC6 should be proposed as system to create POs (as we are running a Classic Scenario) and there should be ECC6 PO types available to create such POs in the ECC6.
Can you please tell us what is still missing in our configuration? Any help will be more than welcome
Many thanks in advance for your valuable help
Best regards
Valentí

The purpose of MRP run is to make sure that you always have enough stock.
An order to cost center will not increase stock.
Means: MRP is not able to create requisitions for cost center consumption. If you change a requisition created by MRP to be ordered to a cost center, then the next MRP run will create a new requisition to stock.

Deleated Valuation Type --Need Error Message while creating Purchase Order

Hi,
In our scenario , i need a message should flash , if enduser by mistake select the deleated valuation type while creating Purchase Order.
In current configuration , it's not there.
Await your expert opinion.
Regards
Shyam Kogta

I investigated this recently in our company and gave this answer:
A deletion flag does not restrict anything. It is just an indicator to tell SAP that you want this record to be deleted with the next archiving run.
The archiving run then checks if a deletion is possible or not.
So you can set such deletion flags long time in advance, even at a moment where you still have inventory.
To block materials from beeing used in business transactions, usually the material and sales status are used. But these statuses can only be set at overall, plant and sales organisation level.
In some transactions SAP issues warning messages if a material has a deletion flag. This messages could be customized to be an error and prevent any business. However, this type of restriction is not designed for our machine, as we use the material and sales status.
Anyhow, there is no message for valuation types that have a deletion flag in procurement area.
There is one for goods receipts (but only for a certain industry solution that is not used by us)
There is one for deliveries ( VL 211 ).
The valuation types are defaulted from customizing to the transaction e.g. purchase order. Or from info record to the PO. So a standard purchase order gets valuation type ABC , while an internal order (production) gets the DEF. Usually there should not be a need to change this valuation type manually.
So the only solution is to archive the material master at valuation type level.
But I guess, you already have POs with that wrong valuation type, which means you have to archive the POs first. It you have already batches with wrong valuation type, then thy have to be archived as well before a material can be archived.
And finally if you had stock in current year, then you can archive your material in year after next year, as SAP archives only materials that have no stock in current and previous year.

Error creating Purchase Order

Hi Gurus,
I've this issue. I'm using SRM 5.0.
I've configured a product category mentioning it needs to go to sourcing only when the vendor is not mentioned. Otherwise it should bypass sourcing and after the last approval the PO has to be created in backend automatically. We are using Classic Scenario. Now i've this issue. When I create a shopping cart without vendor it goes to sourcing cockpit and from there when I fill the vendor information and create purchase order, purchase order gets created in backend. BUT when I provide vendor information in the shopping cart and Order it after all approvals, it doesn't create PO in backend. Instead I see an error in the error logs of Shopping cart mentioning.
<b>"Shopping cart 0040000365: Error creating the follow-on document"
</b>
I see this under <b> Application Monitors > Shopping cart > Local Errors </b>
Could someone please help me if there knows the solution for this or any note available for this.
Regards,
Sam K

Hi Sam,
Check your settings for when Sourcing is carried out. I assume you have setting in
place always external procurement for every product category in place, why every
SC goes to sourcing cockpit. Adjust that setting. You need to work with product
categories to seperate things out or implement BADI for sorting out to individual
needs. In parallel check the settings for the doc type, number range and the follow
on doc to be created from SC.
Cheers,
Claudia

Change/Create purchase order with customer BSART via CIF

Hi,
we create Purchase Orders in SCM SNP. Those POs are passed via CIF to R/3, but the Purchase orders should be created with a customer BSART.
In SCM the POs currently use the standard ATPCategories. I found an exit in CIF_PO_INBOUND where you can change BSART, but at this point there is no access to the data from APO.
Has anybody already implemented such a scenario?

Hi Michael,
I used CIF outbound user exit from APO , for filtering purchase requisions going to SAP R/3.
You are creating purchase oders in SCM APO and transferring the same to SAP R/3 / ECC through CIF.
We may have two options : Change the data before publishing to SAP R/3 from APO. This happens in APO , outbound .
Otherwise we can change the data in the PO before it is created in SAP R/3 , for this we use user exit inbound SAP R/3.
You have option of changing or enahancing purchase order data inbound in SAP R/3, before the PO is created in SAP R/3.
The enhancement is CIFPUR02.
With this enhancement, you can change purchase order data from your APO system before a purchase requisition or purchase order is created in the ERP system
The enhancement contains the following components:
EXIT_SAPLCPUR_001
You can use this enhancement to change purchasing data (purchase requisitions, purchase orders) in ERP inbound. To do this, you can change the existing transfer data or include additional customer-specific data in your own tables.
Other enhancements in the same
EXIT_SAPLMEPI_004
With this enhancement, you can change the header data of a purchase order before it is created in the ERP system.
The following data can be changed:
Document type (parameter CP_BSART)
EXIT_SAPLMEPI_007
You can use this enhancement to specify the document type of a purchase requisition or purchase order when they are created in the ERP system (parameter CP_BSART).
There are other ehancements which I have not listed.
I assume you can create an enhancemnet projects for incorporating the above enhancements in CMOD / SMOD transactions.
I hope this helps you.
Please confirm.

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Hi,
There are two scenarios where the purchase order is created with zero value.
1. Standard Purchase order with Free tick indicator.
Whenever we expect a material with free of cost from vendor, we use to put the free indicator in item overview. This means the material is valuated at zero price irrespective of price control in material master. Quanitiy is updated while receipts.
Conditions tab in item detail doesnt appear.
2. Consignment PO.
While creating a purchase order for consignment, the system doesnt ask us the price and the condition tab doesnt appear in item detail.
An info record for consignment must be maintained before making the GR.
Hope i have clarified. If you want any further clarification. please do reply.

Inputs requried to create purchase order report from flat file

inputs requried to create purchase order report from flat file

At a guess, I'd say purchase order data.
If you don't give us a clue what you are actually trying to do we can't really help you too much.
Do you want to call a BAPI? Do a BDC? Use an IDOC? Or just generally muck up the system by doing inserts into the purchasing tables?
No doubt if you tell us, you'll get lots and lots of suggestions.

[Request] Special user-exit we need during creating purchase order

Hi, Gurus!
We need to make specific User-Exit during creating Purchase order.
When user creates/change a PO document (ME21N/22N), SAP has to check the u2018CUSTOMERu2019 filed whether it is BLANK or NOT in Delivery Address tab at ITEM LEVEL.
If there is no value in that field, system will automatically input right value with useru2019s business logic.
Thatu2019s what we want to implement in the future.
If you have any solution or recommendation for this, Please help us.
I really appreciate your help in advance.
Best Rgds;
Ian

For checking user exit - SMOD, you need to activate this exit via CMOD
For Badi - SE18 to check & SE19 to implement
Take the help of your abaper, give him / her your logic.
Hope the above answers your query.

Vivek
