Purchase Order in Held status

Hi -
We are using extended classic scenario - PO created both in SRM and backend ECC. We configured one level approval for shooping cart. Shopping cart is getting created and approved by the next level approver. However after the shopping cart is approved, PO is created in SRM with held status and backend ECC PO is not created at all. We checked workflow settings and other configs etc. - everything looks great. Can someone throw some light on this issue ?
Thanks
SK

Hi
What is your source of supply ? how did you assign a vendor to the shopping card for creating purchase order?
can you tell me in bbp_pd what is the partner function existing .i think you may not have partner function 19. you may have 39 only.
are you using any BADI to change the partner function?
waht is the value of po existing in currency and item price and total value of PO?
can you create po for other sc ? are you facing this problem for only this po?
check any lock in sm12 t code/ sm58 any logs.
is anybody is holding the PO check via SM04 .
account assignment is active
for eg.cost center which you refered is inactive in the backend.

Purchase order with HELD status

Hi,
After approval of shopping cart all my purchase order are created with held status.
When controlling the purchase order i have the error message "Select a location to which a plant has been assigned"
Could anyone please give some explanation.
Thanks

Hi
Hope it would not allow to order a cart since you don thave a plant details?
check it up. If Po created check why plant details are not copied into your PO.

Purchase Order created in status expired

Hi,
we use SRM 7.0. After orderering a shopping cart and successful SC approval the purchase order is immediately displayed in status "expired". The PO can not be changed; there is no approval data. Event trace SWEL shows no entry /SAPSRM/CL_WF_PDO_PO READY_FOR_WORKFLOW.
Do you have any ideas on this behaviour?
Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank,
I do not think PO has a staus "Expired".
There might be some development done in your organization.
My guess is delivery date might have been expired and your project team might have developed to show that as "expired" (my wild guess...)
Pl verify.
Best regards,
Ramki

Purchase order in 'Archived' status

Hi All,
We are using SRM5.0 ECS.
After SC is created for 'Free text' requirement, PO is created. When looking at the Purchase order in 'Process Purchase orders',it is giving the message as 'Error while reading the PO in backend system, Inform system administration'. When looked into Item details it is showing the status of PO as 'Archived'.
This is happening only for random Purchase orders. Please let me know what could be the issue.
Regards
Krishna

Hello,
Run FM META_PO_GETDETAIL in SRM, specifying the ECC system ID and PO number which has been created there.
Check if there is any authorization message.
I have seen a similar issue which was related to authorization of RFC user, who was not able to check PO details in backend.
Kind regards,
Ricardo

Purchase order showing wrong status

Hi,
User is creating a purchase order and got approved.Eventhough approved the PO still shows awaiting approval. Please let me know how to change the same. Points will be rewarded for the useful answers.

Munavar

Hi Munavar,
There are some OSS notes available for this issue based on the Service Pack.
Please let us know which service pack you are on to help you further and suggest the correct OSS note.
Neverthless look out for your custom code whcih you had written if you are using N-Step approval BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI for triggering / approving the work flow.
In case the issue is urgent you can use Manual (forced)approval using SWO1 txn.
Enter BUS2201 as object type and click on Test button and then click on Instance button and provide the GUID of the P.O (Use BBP_PD to get GUID of P.O) and then under Methods execute Set Released.
The P.O gets approved after the execution of set released.
Hope this will help you in resolving your issue. Clarifications are welcome.
Award points for helpful answers.

Purchase Order with "Error in Process" status????

We are currently using SRM 4.0 in an extended classis setup. We have been live for appropriately 1 yr and half and I have noticed more and more Purchase Orders going into status "Error in Process" when a change (increase value, add line items, change name) has been performed on the PO and then the PO is approved. The PO will sometimes show up in the SRM Administration Tab occassionaly but more than less they don't and we have to search for failed PO to find all the "error in Process" PO's. I have had success with having the user just change something in the name of the PO and then re-order and the PO will then go into R3 but I was wondering is there something in the system other than having the user change the PO that I can do to push the PO into R3. When we have similar issues with confirmation I run tcode SWO1 and use the GUID ID and click transfer to push it to the backend. Is there anything I can do in the backend that will send the PO into R3 and update the status to Ordered giving there is no apparent error in the system?

Hello Robert,
We've been facing a similar issue (we are also in SRM 4.0 Extended Classic Scenario): Sometimes, when the user modifies a purchase order from SRM (for example, to add some new items), the purchase order replication to the backend failed.
In the Application monitor, we had the following backend error:
"Insert Cost Center for Item X"
but the Cost Center value was correct (other items from the same purchase order had the same account assignment).
We thought the problem was related to the function module in the backend which was changing the purchase order, so we put a SAP OSS Note.
In this OSS note, SAP recommended us to implement note 1005615, and the problem was solved.
Check if this note could be implemented in your backend.
Hope this helps you,
Regards.

BBP_PDIGP-GROSS_PRICE zero in SRM purchase order

Hello All,
We are using extended classic scenarion SRM 5.0 (Server 5.5) with backend ECC 6.0
When creating a shopping cart for product (NOT direct material) on account assignment F = Order with a quantity smaller 1 the SRM purchase order hasn't got a gross price and net value in the item basic tab but has got the correct prices in the 'Prices' tab.
As there is no price in the basic tab (BBP_PDIGP-GROSS_PRICE = 0) the generated SRM purchase order is in status 'Held'.
This happens only if the quantity is less than 1. The SC has got a price maintained (from info record).
Any ideas out there?
Thanks,
Franz

Franz,
To release the PO the user has to uncheck the Invoice expected indicator in the Follow on documents tab for the item with zero price. Also they should uncheck the GR indicator or they could input a confirmation for the zero priced item and this can lead to further complications.
Hope this helps

Error in process when creating Purchase Order against WBS

Hi!
We are creating a purchase order (BBP_POC) against a WBS. But when trying to purchase for more than what the project budget is set to the purchase order gets the status "Error in process". We do not want the purchase order to be replicated to ECC but dont want it to be created in SRM as well. Is there a way to get an error message when trying to create the Purchase order? We do not want to end up with alot of purchase orders with "errror in process".
When doing the exact same thins in sourcing cockpit it is not possible to create the purchase order. Then we receive the error message (or warning) stopping us from creating a PO in SRM.
How to get the error and warning in BBP_POC?
Sincerely
Anders Öhrling

The budget check should work in the following cases
    1. When you create and change a shopping cart (e.g. after it has been held)
    2. When you create and change a purchase order (purchasing cockpit)
    3. When you create a purchase order from within the sourcing cockpit (as of SRM 2.0)
    4. With the approval of shopping carts and purchase orders
Unfortunately nr 2 is not working.
BBP_BUDGET_CHECK is not implemented.
Sincerely
Anders Öhrling

Grey out out ESLL=TBTWR in Service purchase order

Hi I need to grey out out ESLL=TBTWR in Service purchase order when the status is released 'S'?
I Tried Include LV69AFZZ - form userfield modification -it works for conditions tab but not for service tab.
I need to grey out only for released PO , others cases allow user to edit.
Kindly Suggest.

everything there in snap,
Go to function group MLSP,
Screen 0400->PBO Module MODIFY_SCREEN_ROW ->PERFORM MODIFY_SCREEN_ROW
->PERFORM FELDAUSWAHL.
Here you have to do Implicit enhancement.
Remember to add, If sy-tcode = 'ME22N'.

Greying out MEPO1211-NETPR in purchase order?

Hi
I need to grey out out MEPO1211-NETPR in purchase order when the status is released 'S'?
I have used BADI - ME_ACTV_CANCEL_PO - method check activity
field-symbols:<fs> type any table,
 <ls> type any,
 <lr_screen> type screen.
assign ('(SAPLMEGUI)TC_1211-COLS') to <fs>.
if sy-subrc is initial.
loop at <fs> assigning <ls>.
 clear lv_inx.
 assign component 'SCREEN' of structure <ls> to <lr_screen>.
if <lr_screen>-name = 'MEPO1211-NETPR'.
 <lr_screen>-input = 0.
 endif.
endif.
endif.
BUT still the field is input enabled in the screen
Kindly suggest how to acheive desired.

Hi Arun -
Check the previous post - http://scn.sap.com/thread/3474357
check the function module - MEPOBADI_FS_ITEM is getting triggered or not.
If yes, you can put an implicit enhancement at the end of this function module.
Create a implit enahcnement at the end of this function module MEPOBADI_FS_ITEM (just before ENDFUNCTION). Let me know if you need help on implicit enhancemnt.
1. declare data
 DATA: , w_header TYPE mepoheader,
 w_item TYPE mepoitem ,
 w_fieldselection TYPE mmpur_fs.
 CONSTANTS: c_61 TYPE mmpur_metafield VALUE '61',
2 . check header data
 IF im_header IS NOT INITIAL.
 CALL METHOD im_header->get_data
 RECEIVING
 re_data = w_header.
 ENDIF.
Here you can take the document type from w_header
3. . check if im_item is not inintial. then take the item data
 CALL METHOD im_item->get_data
 RECEIVING
 re_data = w_item.
Here you can check plant from w_item.
if your condition match.
4. LOOP AT ch_fieldselection INTO w_fieldselection
 WHERE metafield = c_61.
 w_fieldselection-fieldstatus = '*' .
 MODIFY ch_fieldselection FROM w_fieldselection.
 CLEAR w_fieldselection.
 ENDLOOP.

Purchase order with decimal values in held status.

Hello, i have a SC. The quantity is decimal for the line item.When it was approved, the PO got a 'held' status.How do i release the PO and what can i do in order to accept decimal values in my SC ?

Hello,
Are you sure this is not a workflow issue? If it is held, someone either placed it in hold status or something like that. Since, there was nothing to suspect an application error, I don't think the decimals is your issue. If you feel that it is, have you checked OSS.
More information would be helpful....
Regards, Dean.
