Purchase Order / Requisition Line Item Approval

Hi
Just wondering if Purchase Order / Purchase Requisition LINE ITEM approval is an option for workflow?
Would the better solution be to use SRM line item approval on a shopping cart and create the Purchase Order from this?

Purchase Orders - Updating Line Items After a Portion Has Been Received

Is there any way to make a line item editable on a purchase order if only a portion of it has been received?
Basically, our company will create a Purchase Order in SAP, which goes to our office in Hong Kong to arrange shipment. These Purchase orders will, many times, have multiple items listed at, let's say, 10,000 pieces each. Each of the items may ship on different dates due to our request for different dates or due to limited container space. So really...each item on the Purchase Order is like a "mini purchase order"... as I like to call it.
So, when we have a situation where only 5,000 of a specified item has been sent, we create a Goods Receipt for that amount...making that line item un-editable on the Purchase Order.
I would like for it to be editable so that I can add/change the the "Status Update" column I created (this is for our sales reps to be able to determine when product should be arriving).
The only solution I can think of is readjusting the quantities right when we know they will be split...so by the time they arrive (usually a month after they are shipped from Hong Kong), the quantities are already separated out in the system.
Only thing is, I have to be REALLY careful not to mess up the original order...or confuse things.
Any suggestions??

There is a good reason that a line item will become non-editable on a purchase order if a portion of it has been received.
Do not fight with system. If possible, change the order to small one from the beginning. That would be much better.
Thanks,
Gordon

Blocking a Requisition Line Item if A Purchase order exists

Hi All,
We are looking at a way to block a purchase requisition (not allow the end user to make changes) if a Purchase Order Exists for that purchase requisition line item. Is there a way of doing this without having to use a user exit?
We do have release strategies on requisitions so we can control the filed status there but this is not really going to solve the 'problem'
Your help will appreciated.
Kind Regards,
GA

Hi,
Thanks for your help. The end user are mostly changing the value, quantity and adding specification in the text fields. But the procurement department do not pick these changes up as the PO is already with the Vendor.

GA

Unable to delete the Purchase Requisition line item

Hello MM sapperu2019s,
I am unable to delete one of the line item in Purchase Requisition. Please let me know how to delete this Purchase Requisition line item.
When I tried to delete the line item in ME52N the delete button is gryed out hence I could not able to do it.
The purchase requirement has reference of network in the account assignment.
Please let me know if you need more clarification.
Cheers,
Kumar.S

Hi,
You are experiencing the stnadrad behavior
When the Preq is automatically created from either
a production, plant maintenance, or network, order, what you can change
in the PReq is very limited.
This is to ensure no conflicts arises between the PReq and the source
application of the PReq (be it PP, PM/CS or PS).
The technical explanation is due to the recorded value in EBAN-ESTKZ
(Creation indicator). The value stored here (automatically by the
system) controls what you can or can't change in ME52/N.
We cannot delete the line item in this case
regards,
Lalita

MM: Purchase requisition line Items - How many line items can we use

Hi all,
1. Purchase requisition Line items (How many line items can we use?), is there any restrictions.
2. While creating PO with only one tax code for the related PR to input Tax code (without selecting line Items).

BOM in standard PURCHASE order/requisition

I would like to use BOM as a specification of a "group" of materials procured many times in the same or similar configuration.(eg. servers with specific configuration listing all parts).
Is it possible, to use material BOM in standard purchase order (NEITHER SUBCONTRACTING NOR PRODUCTION ORDERS) as a kind of "recipe" for eg. server configuration.
What I would like to achive is to reduce ammount of work in document entry. Instead of entering 30-50 position for each purchase requisition/order, I would like to use for this material BOM.
Is it possible?
If not, what other object can serve for preparing a list of materials to procure?
How the buttons "BOM Explosion" and "Components" can be turned on on standard purchase order/requisition?
Thanks in advance for help.
Best regards,
Wojciech

Hi,
To the best of my knowledge - BOM's are used in the context of value addition say - a manufacturing or processing involved in converting the inputs to the final prodcut.
While configurable items are used in a scenario where in a simple putting together / packaging in to a kit kind of activity is involved.In this scenario the final product is packaged to the requirements from picking the items of choice from the available prodcut list.
As it seemed the requirement as indicated in the question are in line with this concept I had suggested this solution of usage of Configurable materials.
I have not come accross a scenario of BOM and BOM explosion in Procurement excepet for Sub contracting.
How ever , I appreciate if any one can share information on BOM & Explosion in Purchase order.
Hope this information helps.
Thanks & regards

Purchase order for KIT item

Hi,
my requirement is to raise Purchase order for KIT item.For Example--
For 1 Kit item A, including 1 table and 4 chairs. Define components (table and chair) for item A by using Bills of Material screen. In Order Management, when user orders 100 item A, system will generate automatically 100 tables and 400 chairs and Ship to customer. Item A does not have Onhand, only its components have Onhand.
will the oracle purchasing support this KIT purchase concept.
pl give me suggestions.
Thanks in Advance,
regards,
venkat

Venkat
I'm thinking that your requisition from OM will be automatically converted to internal requisition for 100 tables and 400 chairs, based on your setup.
Would you still need to have 'KIT' setup in procurement?
The other thing I can think of is, you can use Requisition Templates to help in ordering items on a repetitive basis.
Let us know what you think.

How to link asset with purchase order and PO Item.

Hello,
I have to generate a report which contains columns
Asset No , po no(ebeln) ,PO Item(ebelp),Material no etc
My query is how to link asset with purchase order and PO Item.
I am selecting asset and po no. from anla but how to get
po item no(ebelp)?
po line item is important in this report because every line item has differrent asset and material no.
i tried to match asset no in mseg table but i am not getting asset no in mseg .
how should i proceed ?

Thanks Thomas & Srimanta for the quick response.
When I checked EKKN table by entering PO there is no asset no. in anln1 field.
Also I would like to add that, In me23n for a PO, account assignment category we are entering 'F' for internal order settlement.
Where can i find the link between asset and po no(ebeln) and po item(ebelp)?

Rachel

Reject a customer order and purchase order requisition

Hi alltogether,
I have to give a recommendation for the following case:
user created a customer order with one item and item cat. TAB!
user created a po with ME57/ME21N and ordered the parts
user received the parts (with or w/o MIGO, doesn't matter)
Now the customer rings and does not want the parts anymore.
User wants to keep the po with the specific number 45xxxxxxxx, because he will receive a supplier invoice with relation to that po number. He also wants to keep the ordered parts in his own stock, means he doesn't want to return to supplier.
How can we reject the customer order and change the po so that we can post the stock to unrestricted use?
Thx a lot
Wolfi.

Hi,
Still same Error-Message: "Delete purchase order 45xxx and item 000010 first"
There is one workaround:
1.) delete po item (garbage icon)
2.) reject order item
3.) change account assignment category in po item to BLANK (was set to M, because of the TAB item in cust. order)
4.) clear Purch.req and req. item reference in po item line
5.) save po
6.) undo deletion of po item (unlock icon)
Too complicate, isn't it?
Any other idea?
Regards
Wolfi
