Procurment type of a Co product

Dear All
What should be the procurment type of Co product. Does standard SAP say, it should be E or is the just a configuration--co product can be of any procurement type?
1-- I want have declared an item as co product to the main item. But this co product item is not having BOM and recipe of its own. SO what should be the procrurement type of this co product-- if i keep F, the co product tick box does not appear, and if i keep it as E, in the costing run..system asks for BOM and receipe.
Kindly suggest

Dear Balwinder,
In my understanding the co-product will be having a procurement type E,and also click on the Joint production to define the
apportionment structures(Cost apportionment to Co-products) in the MRP2 view of the material master.

Procurement type u201CE (In-house production) u201D & u201CXu201D (Both procurement types)

Hi SAP Gurus,
What is the Deference between Procurement type u201CE (In-house production) u201D & u201CXu201D (Both procurement types)
Cause after MRP run in Both cases I come across same options.
With This Procurement type we can get plan order as well a Purchase requisition & all other option then what is the difference between E & X ?
Best Regards,
Parag.

Dear Parag,
This is flexibility given by SAP, suppose you have material which is produced in-house and procured from vendor also. In these cases the procurement type is kept X. The MRP will give planned order in case of X and you have liberty to create Production order and purchase requisition also. This you can verify in MD04 for X procured material.

Procurement Type X , and not using mix product costing.

Hi,
Does anyone know if I set the procurement type X in the material master and not planning to do mix costing, is it possible to configure product costing to either internal or external cost estimate with procurement type X?

Hi Alice,
You can configure product costing even though you have not maintained costing view in the material master. I guess this is what you want to know.
Please confirm.

Procurement type X in SAP R/3

Hello Gurus,
We have an FG with Proc type X because it may be procured in both ways. (Repetitive manufacturing)
Scenario if today is Jan 27th and we hv Matl "A' with procurement type X, an MRP relevant Source list whose validity ends on Feb 15th . A production version whose validity begins from Feb 16th . MRP is run with ..NETCH ,3,3,1,1,3
Requirement situation is 10pcs on Jan 31st and 20 pcs on feb 19th. Stock is ZERO
Expectation is that If I run MRP today system should create Schedule lines for the Jan 31st requirement and create a Planned order for Jan 19th requiremnt............Which is not happening.
Instead system is creating planned orders for both requiremnts . No schedule lines were created for Jan 31st requirement.
Gurus, Is there any customizing setting to allow system to behave as an F and E type simultaneosly based on the SOurce list Valid-To date and production version Valid from date

Which table in APO has the SPECIAL PROCUREMENT TYPE field?

Hi All,
I have to enhance the CIF by creating two additional T-Lane on the basis of Special procurement type of the product. For which table in APO can i get this field.
Also Is there any table in APO containing the value of material type in ECC
Please Help.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Gaurav ,
When you have special procurment key settings in R/3 for a material such that location B gets stock from location A (A---> B) , when you CIF the material to APO , a transportation lane gets created with source location = A and destination location = B. This source - destination combination is stored in table /sapapo/TR . If you want to get all products that are available in a particular transportaion lane you have to query table /sapapo/trprod. Means of transport is stored in table /sapapo/trm.
Also i dont think material type is available in APO (not very sure ). Material group is available and it is stored in table /sapapo/matkey.
Thanks

Material procurement types

hi friends,
can any one tell me material procurement types

Hello
Check this document on Material Type:
Use
When the system determines the procurement element, it first asks whether procurement should take place via in-house production or external procurement.
Prerequisites
You have defined whether in-house production, external procurement or both are allowed for the material, in the material master record, in the Procurement type field. The procurement type is preset by the material type in Customizing for the material master.
If necessary, you have defined more precisely how the in-house production or external procurement is to be carried out, in the material master (MRP 2 view), in the Special procurement field.
You define special procurement keys in Customizing for MRP in the IMG activity Define special procurement type.
Features
Procurement Type
If both in-house production and external procurement are defined for the material via the material type (indicator X in Procurement type field), then you can set the procurement type as follows:
By overwriting the indicator in the material master
By converting the planned order either into a production order or a purchase requisition
By using quota arrangements, in that you define that a certain percentage of the material is to be procured via in-house production and the rest via external procurement (see Quota Arrangements).
If you leave the indicator X for both procurement types in the material master record, and you have not maintained any quota arrangements, the system automatically switches to in-house production. The planned order therefore firstly creates planned orders, which you can then convert into production orders or purchase requisitions.
Special Procurement Type
The special procurement type is used to precisely define how in-house production and external procurement is to be carried out.
Special Procurement for In-House Production
For a phantom assembly
Production in alternative plant
Withdrawal from an alternative plant
Direct production
Special Procurement for External Procurement
Consignment
Subcontracting
Stock transfer
Direct Procurement
Reg
assign points if useful

Procurement type 'X"

Hi,
I have a scenario for which i need your suggestions,
For a material i have maintained the Procurement type as 'X" and special procument key 'xx' for Stock transfer in the material master. Now when i run the MRP for the material, I got a planned order and when i am trying to convert it system is proposing only the option of converting to Purchase Requisition.
But Ideally for the procurement type X it should provide both conversion to production order or purchase requisition.
Kindly suggest what settings need to be done....
Regards,
Nsv0808

Hi Kumar,
My scenario is like this,
I have got a material XYZ which can be produced in two plants A and B. The requirement is to Produce in plant A.
But for any reasons plant A decides to offload partial or in full to plant B for the production of the same and deliver it to plant A.
Kindly suggest the process and also what settings need to be done
Hope u r clear with the requirement.

Nsv0808

Procurement Type 'X' and Special Procurement Type

Hello all,
Need some advice over this topic.
Material with procurement type 'X' can either be procured externally or manufactured in-house. The problem is :
#1. If a special procurement type that corresponds to external procurement say for example '30' is set in Material master. I don't find an option to have this converted into a process/production order.
#2. Whereas If a special procurement type that corresponds to in-house production say for example '52' is set in the Material Master. I have almost every possible function's visible.
How do i get to the view process/production order for case 1 in the 'Additional Data for MRP Element' screen of MD04 ?
Please do help out.
Regards,
Rahul

Rahul,
Please re-read the SAP help related to special procurement key.
I know for sure the answer lies in there!
Here is what the F1 help says:
Use
You use special procurement when you want to be able to override the procurement type in the material master or define the procurement type more precisely.
If the procurement type is in-house, you can nevertheless force the system to ignore the BOM and routing, and process the material as if it were externally procured, by specifying the special procurement as external.
Now please check OMD9 configuration for the SP Keys that you are testing, it will be clear.
Good luck!

Hi Vivek,
I should be able to procure material between these three plants.
Current Config is
                Supplying Plants
A               B
B               A
C               A
Required
A               B
B               A

In short any plant can procure from any plant
I hope, I have explained your question.

Special procurement type in Matrl Master?

Hello All,
Could someone please explain the significance of the field pecial procurement type in the material master?
We are working on a subcontracting scenario wherein the parent matrl is sometimes manufactured inhouse and sometimes sent to a subcontractor. I maintained the procurement type as X for this reason. Now should I maintain the special procurement type as 30 (Subcontracting)?
What exactly is the functionality of this field?What purpose does it serve? I have read the F1 help but have not understood it properly.Would really appreciate if someone could explain with a live example.
Regards,
V S

Hi,
Through Procurement type you define whether the procurement will be in-house production or extranal or both.
Sometimes this information isn't enough to describe the process, generally in the following cases :
Special Procurement for In-House Production
+ For a phantom assembly+
+ Production in alternative plant+
+ Withdrawal from an alternative plant+
Direct production
Special Procurement for External Procurement
+ Consignment+
+ Subcontracting+
+ Stock transfer+
+ Direct Procurement+
for the above cases, to carry out this information into system we use the "special procurement type field"
the most commun situation are: phantom assembly : we use in general indicator 50
Subcontracting : we use in general indicator 30

SPECIAL PROCUREMENT TYPE

Dear all,
In my company scenario we have..... in-house production, external procurement, and stock transfers .
My question is " what should be mentioned for...(OMD9) SPECIAL PROCUREMENT TYPE IN SPRO ?"
thanks and regards,

Hi ali,
Special procurement type Allows you to define the procurement type more exactly. The system determines the procurement type from the material type.
You use special procurement when you want to be able to override the procurement type in the material master or define the procurement type more precisely.
Plant,                Special procurement type & Description,   Procurement type,        special procurement
xxxx,                20    External procuremet,                         F   ,                                  K   ,
xxxx,                52    Inhouse production ,                          E ,                                   E,

Special procurement type for BOM item

Hi Experts
I am creating BOM using BAPI : CAD_CREATE_BOM_WITH_SUB_ITEMS
There is no field to update Special procurement type for BOM item in this BAPI.
Could you please suggest some way to update this.
Thanks in Advance

hi Janardhan,
phantom assembly is the assembly which is not kept in stock rather it consumes directly.
Use of phantom assemblies are as below
Phantom assemblies are assemblies that have their own product structure, but whose assembly does not actually physically exist. The components of the phantom assembly are incorporated directly in the superordinate product. The product structure of the superordinate product contains a reference to the phantom assembly.
example - A car with music system.
During backflush, only the goods movement for the phantom assembly components are posted. The phantom assembly is marked as backflushed but does not trigger any goods movement.
Experts pl correct me if i'm wrong.

Anil

Special procurement type- STPO

Hi all,
For a material in plant 'X', I have maintained special procurement type , 40 - stock transfer from plant 'Y'.
with procurement type- F, Spl. Pro. type- U, and in have mentioned the plant 'Y'.
But when i create a PIR for the material in plant X it triggers pur.req in plant X not an stock transfer order. (it also triggers release order for stock transfer purchase req).
I need planned orders to be triggerd.
What is the way to trigger STPO during MRP.
Thanks,
JK

Hi,
In std , this is the flow of stock transfer with spk 40.
After MRP run ,
1.You will get PReq (Stock Transport Req) for the component in Plant X and PreqRel (Release order for stock transp req)
for the same component in plant Y.
2. Now , you convert the stock transport req into Stock transport order ie PR to PO in Plant X, by a double click on the element in MD04. With this stock transport order , material is procured from Plant Y.
3. At the same time in Plant Y , the release order (PReqRel) is also converted to a Purchase order (ConRel).
4. With reference to this PO , do a GI in MIGO with 351 Movmt type (Transfer posting to stock in transit) in Plant Y.
After this you can see the issued Qty in MB5T.
5.Now in Plant X , take a GR with reference to the PO ( PO no will be same in both plants) with 101 movmt type. stock will be raised.
Hope this is clear.
If you want planned orders in Plant X , then in MRP initial screen - Create Pur Req indicator - put 3- Planned orders and run.
Now you convert Planned orders to PR and then PO.
If you want Planned order in Plant Y , its not possible.based on this Stock transport order (PO) only , Planned orders will be generated for production.(if stock is not available)
pls get back for further clarifications...............
Regards,
Sheik

Special Procurement Type(SPT) u0096 Cross Plant Costing

Hi,
I am reviewing PC config as part of a post implementation analysis. Is there a report the shows the cross plant costing relationships? I am concerned that a MFG to hub relationship was not followed. For example I have materials in MFG plant 1234 with a SPT from MFG plant 5678. I also have materials in plant 5678 with SPT from plant 1234. I am worried about a circular reference during product costing not real sure which plant to cost first. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill
The SPT for Cost are the same as used on the MRP screens.
The costing program looks to the field of Spec Procurment type fof Costing FIRST, if it is populated it follows the rules. If not populated then it looks to Spec Procurment type on MRP, if not populated, rules in the costing variants are followed.
Our product cost specialist maintains the field via CATT/and custom programs.
Our specific issue was:
Part A is manufactured in Denmark at Std price control
USA plant acquires it from Denmark and uses as a component in equipment.
The SPT on MRP drove both events.
Processes changed and all parts made Denmark were store in the Belgium warehouse at moving average.
The definition of the SPT was changed and suddenly Cost was coming from a moving average in Belgium.
Not what we wanted.
So we created an SPT for Cost and populated Costing 1.
Now cost comes from Denmark and material comes from Belgium.
Hope this helps

Sap pp-Procurement type u2018Xu2019

What is use of Procurement type u2018Xu2019 in MRP2 screen, & how system plans if we enter this key and how it is affected or related
with MRP?

Hi Niranjan,
Procurement type "X" is used when the material can be produced in house as well as procured form outside source.
The system allows you to create production/process orders as well as the purchase order for this material. This come to use when you have to take a make or buy decision based on the economic quantity for inhouse production.
Also, cases where production capacity is limited and the demand is more you could go in for external procurement. Such materials need to have the flexibility of both inhoude production and external procurement.
Hope this answers your question.
Regards,
Pradeep.
