Purchase Order Copy Controls

How to copy Purchase Requisition Header Note to the Purchase Order Header Note?
No standard configuration available.
Please suggest how to do the configuration.
Thanks
SUNIL

Sorry, this functionality is not possible. The header note can only be entered and displayed in transaction ME51N. There is no customizing for this text and no copying rules to copy it
to other purchasing documents. The header note is new from release 4.6c on. It was never possible to
copy the requisition header note to a PO and it seems we won't do it in the future.
Of course it is possible for contracts header notes and so on, but not for requisitions.

Purchase Order: Copy of Deleted Positions not available for Goods Receipt

Hi SAP Gurus,
we've implemented an SRM extended classic scenario with the R/3 as the back end system.
When I create a purchase order with, for instance, 17 positions, if I delete one of them (for instance the number 16) and I copy it I get in my order two positions with the number 16: the first one is deleted and the second one is active. This doesn't happen for the very first positions: if I delete one position and I copy it I get the new one at the end of the list.
The problem is that when I have to create the Goods Receipt, the position copied from the deleted ones are not available!!!
Please, is in there anyone who can help me? Thank you very much!

Purchase order delivery control

Hi,
we have purchase order with 5 line items, system should allowe only full quantity deliveries each line item wise. we need to control partial deliveries each line item wise, so how can we control this. We should control with itemcategory wise(NLC and NLCC).
Rao

Dear Rao,
You can control this through customer master settings but I don't know about it will full fill your requirement or not.
Try this
Please go to the customer master data through VD02 transaction then go to Sales area data here you go to the Shipping tab here you can find the Partial delivery per item field under Partial deliveries. You maintain B Create only one delivery (also with quantity = 0) or C Only complete delivery allowed in the Partial delivery per item field then try.
I hope this will help you,

Purchase Order copying issue

Hi there,
I have a client who is having problems with their service purchase orders. When someone copies an approved service PO to an invoice/GRPO and they change the GL account on the line level the document loses the link to the PO. This then results in the PO being available to be copied again in the future. This could result in fraud because users can copy an order multiple times using the same approved order for many invoices.
Is there a way to stop this from being allowed in the system? If so, how?
Kind regards
Clayton.

Hi there,
The thing is they don't want any stand alone invoices or GRPO's. They all have to be copied from a PO so there is an audit trail. If someone can keep copying the same PO and just changing the account it posts to then this is going to cause major problems for them.
How can we stop this?
Regards
Clayton.

Purchase order confirmation control key issue

Hi,
We have an issue about vendor confirmation control key in transactions ME21N/ME22N
We have custom document types defined , ZNB - this is normal purchase order for external vendors and ZSTO - this is stock transfer orders between plants belonging to our corporation.
For ZNB we can introduce the confirmation control keys with no problem.
But when we try to introduce the confirmation control key for the ZSTO document type, the value is simply ignored and the field is reset to blank (NO error message)
My question what can be the reason for this , probably there is some customizing setup that creates this behaviour but I cannot find it.
Thanks
H.Z.

I put this succesive screen shots, first I select the confirmation key and after pressing enter the field is reset to blank .....
I was trying to find also user exista but with no success so far ....
Thanks

Purchase Order Table Control

Hi,
I am trying to change the columns in the table control of the purchase order screen (ME21N) but cant seem to able to do it,
To be more detailed I clicked on the "Configuration" button of the table control, clicked on "Administrator" and made the fields "plant/MEPO1211-WERKS" and "storage location/MEPO1211-RESLO" visible ( unchecked the fields ) but the table control does not change, I have activated the changes even created a new variant for the settings but no changes are seen, I have tried to make the other fields visible/invisible but no changes are seen.
Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Long text
Symptom
Using the table control configuration, you are unable to hide the
columns on the overview screens of the purchasing documents (purchase
requisition, purchase order, request for quotation, outline agreement).
Additional key words
ME21, ME51, ME41, ME31, ME31K, ME31L, ME21N, ME22N, ME23N, OMF4
Cause and prerequisites
The hiding of fields was and still is controlled by Customizing.Here,
you can - with the help of the field selection key - make fields
invisible (for example, for a particular document type). This setting
overrides the individual table control setting.
Solution
It is currently not possible to hide columns selectively for each user.
Instead, SAP recommends that you shift the columns you do not require in
the table control to the far right and save this setting.
If this was helpful, please award points accordingly . Thanks.

Invoice To Service Order - Copy Control

Hi All,
I have a business requirement where in as soon as invoice is generated for sold product, a service order should be created for installation and demo. I am using copy control option and for target trnsaction type i have checked the option complete reference without any routine. To copy certain fields i believe i need to write a routine but With options 'Copy Item number' and 'Complet reference' do i get item level details without mentioning in routine program.
Kindly guide how to creae follow from invoice using copy control.
Many Thanks in Advance !!
Regards,
Abhishek Sandhir

Hi Abhishek
I have few queries just to understand the process you are following
1. You are creating your sales order/ invoice in CRM or ECC?
2. Do you want serial number / Component/Ibase information on the service order? If yes then do you have this information on your sales order.

Pricing Type D to work for sales order to sales order copy controls

Hi,
Issue: Pricing type D does not work while creating a debit memo request in reference to the credit memo request.
Credit memo request and debit memo request have identical pricing procedures.
But in this case, the credit memo was created with reference to a billing document which had a different pricing procedure and the pricing procedure components of the billing document was copied entirely into the credit memo request with pricing type D in the copy control.
But when this credit memo request is referenced to create a debit memo request with the pricing type D in the copy control, the price is re-determined in the debit memo request. But the scenario requires, the pricing elements to be copied completely from the credit memo request.
Please advise for the corrections or on the changes to be made to the requirement.
Thanks and Regards,
Gopinath

This is due to the Coopy Routine in Billing to Sales Doc.
In the Copy control routine of the Item , you find the routine being used, Inside this Routine , you will find a statement like
MOVE-CORROSPONDING CVBRK to VBAP
This statement is actually transfering all feilds from billing document to the Order with the Billing Pricing Procedure.
Just add one line before this statement " LOCAL CVBRK-KALSM
or
CVBRK-KALSM = VBAK-KALSM
This will give you the new Determined Pricing Procedure.
this is a change in code of the Routine , may be you need to copy and create a new routine to add this line.

Returns Order Copy Control

Dear Auto wizards,
We are using the standard returns sales order in the VMS. The std copy control for the returns doc (sales order) is based on the (forward) sales order and as per the settings in R3 copy control for the sales order to order.
The error we are facing is expplained as follows:
If multiple vehicles say A & B are selected in a forward order and the returns order is made for the vehicle B then the returns order is picking up the value / pricing details for vehicle A. I tried several instances and realise that the returns ordr is NOT checking the 'item' or its "batch no" at the sr nos in the fwd order but simply copying the pricing values of the fwd order in the SAME sequence and not of relating to the sequence as per the returns order or in other words not picking up the pricing of B which was actually at sr no 2 in the fwd order.
When the vehicles and / or the prices are different, the returns order gives errors.
Any advise on ways to eliminate this would be highly rewarded!!!
Thanks and Regards,
Tariq

Hi S Navaneetha K,
I do agree and understand that there is a possible flaw in the copy control. But I beg to differ that my process could be incorrect. Do review the same, as I elaborate it further.
I would choose 2 units...i.e. 2 batch nos (int veh nos), hence 2 VINs, hence "could be" 2 different vehicles for the SAME customer..OF the SAME sales area. As the order would be one, hence the sales areas would be required to be same. From all this, I am intending to make a sales order of two units / Batch nos to one customer. What could be wrong in this process. the customer CAN buy more than one vehicle at one time and could insist for one single document. So in my opinion the process is not wrong.
The handling of this by SAP is wrong and if you give me a moment to elaborate further, I would say it in this manner:
If we had a similar case in R3 where we would have made an order for the similar vehicles and invoiced. We would be doing a rversal based on the billing document. And the basic difference starts here: in R3 when we initiate a reversal, we choose the DOCUMENT..the reversal / return sales order to be created...copied from?...the forward billing doc..ALL the items get copied into the return sales order based on the copy control..correct? then IF we have partial have reversals, we go fwd and 'delete those line items' which are NOT required to be reversed. By this time the item values, sequencing everything has been copied..and after deletion we are (consciously) keeping only those required, hence the sequencing doesnt change and all is ok.
Whereas inVMS we start from the WHICH vehicle?...meaning which batch no. to be reversed..and THEN we choose the return sales order creation action.....so we have 'already' chosen the item(s) to be reversed THEN we make the document and THEN the copy control works...unlike the R3 scenario.
Based on this how can the functional process be wronged.? Hence the system has to be corrected rather than the process. Please do enlighten if you think otherwise.

Disable Document Flow in Sales Order copy control

Hello,
We have a request where the customer doesn't want the docflow to appear when you copy a sales order to another sales order? I know that you can disable the flag for the item categories however, when you do this, there is still a link between a sales order when it's created by referencing another. Is there a way to create a sales order via "copy with reference" and to not have them linked in the docflow? Possibly one of the configuation settings in the copying control? We are on 6.0.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi,
I think It is not possible through configuration.
Pl try screen exit
or
change in standard program,which is not advisable.
Thanks,

Authorization Object for Purchase order Message control

Hi ,
Is there any stadard authoriztion object to control the print and print preview options for Message control .
I am requied to control the print and print preview options for purchase order messages for certain users depeding on there authorizaion.
Thanks in advane.

Hi,
When you click on the 'print preview' button on ME22N/ME23N the system
makes an authority check on transaction ME9F activity 04. The current
logic forces the print preview functionality to be accessed ONLY by the
users who print. Therefore, only users that have authorization to use
ME9F are authorized to use the Print Preview button in ME22N/ME23N.
Kindly try the authorization objects M_BEST_EKG, M_BEST_BSA and
M_BEST_EKO = 04.
You can
also have a look the user exit
EXIT_SAPLMEDRUCK_001 in enhancement LMEDR001 for print program
SAPLMEDRUCK.
INCLUDE ZXM01U04
you can create own coding for all possible AUTHORITY-CHECK.
