I am working as a technical consultant in a reputed company.Now my client requirement is whenever we approve PO there will be check box Email.If we click on email button then PO soft copy will be sent to the client.But instead of the default copy they want to send a purchase order report (.rdf) through mail.Can anyone suggest me how it is possible.
Thanks in advance.

We had achieved it using a custom mailing program running on schedule which had folowing logic
1) Find out the request id of the Purchase order Report concurrenet program
2) Insert the request id in a marking table so that same po will not be mailed againa and again
3) pick up output of purchase order reports stored in $APPLCSF/out with the help of request id
4) use generic mailing program , which we had written in unix (you can write in pl sql) also to take this file as an attachment and mail it

Regarding Purchase Order Screen - Copy From

Hi friends,
In purchase order screen <b>Copy From</b> Button was in disable mode.i want to enable that button . i am using SAP Business One 2005 A(6.80.317) SP:01 version.
expecting reply soon ......
Thanks & Regards
SARAN

Hi,
You cannot enable the Copy From button on the purchase order window. This is because there is no originating document for a purchase order (which is the first document in the chain on the purchasing side).
Perhaps if you explain your reasons for needing this functionality someone can come up with a suitable workaround.

Purchase order pdf copy to requestor

Hi,
In SRM the once the PO is released, the PO will be sent to vendor as PDF file.
In my requirement, the copy of the PO has to sent also to Requestor as a PDF file.
Can anyone help me on this ?

I just want to make sure you mean the shopping cart requester. If so, you need enhancement for this. Go to transaction SPRO, follow the path SRM server >> cross application basic settings >> set output actions and output format >> define actions for document output. Highlight BBP_PD_PO and double click on Action Definition. Then double click on Processing Types. Highlight "Smart Forms Mail" and press Enter. In the bottom subscreen, you would see Processing Class and Processing Method. Go to the method implementation and toward the bottom of the method is the portion to determine recipients of the email. You would have to enhance this so that it includes the requester.

AP Credit Memo and Purchase Order

Hi,
can anyone tell me if it's possible to link a AP Credit Memo to a purchase order like an invoice can joined to ?
thanks

Dear GEORGES COURONNE,
No, it is not possible to link Purchase order to Credit memo. Because, Credit memo is used to cancle the Accounting transaction done (like invoice), but in purchase order there is no such transaction.
You can close the purchase order to copy it to Invoice or GRPO, and or by manual close choosing Data close.

A purchase order needs to be created, and the vendor is known
Business Process Description Overview
A purchase order is a legal document issued by the buyer to the vendor to supply materials or service at the agreed price, terms and conditions. The Purchase Order forms the basis for all follow-on activities like Goods Receipt, Invoice Verification, etc. The Purchase Orders can be created directly by entering all the required data, copying already created purchase order, with reference to an RFQ/Contract or with reference to a PR.
Purchase Order creation is possible only if sufficient budget allocation is there for the Fund Centers. It is not possible to create Purchase Orders for a Vendor who is blocked for procurement or not maintained in source list for that item. Also it is not possible to create PO for Quantity more than the PR quantity.
All the price components which are to be paid to vendors and requires to be inventoried has to be included in PO.It is possible to add different vendors for delivery costs. The tax codes should be correctly maintained in PO for the purpose of Cenvat availment etc.
The payment term defaulted from Vendor Master or RFQ has to be verified and changed if required.
The incomplete Purchase Orders can be saved as HOLD document and later completed and saved thru Change PO menu

Purchase Order Text in Vendor Master

Hello. Does anyone have information on how to use the Purchase Order Text field in the vendor master? Everything I have read so far is in reference to SRM. We are currently running ECC6.0. I entered information into the PO Text field of the Purchasing screen on the vendor master, but cannot figure out how to get it to input to the PO header text. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

In customizing ->material management -> purchasing -> purchase order -> texts for purchase orders -> define copying rules for header texts, choose "header text" and click on text linkages. Here you can enter for source object "vendor master", and for source text choose vendor master header text.
This will copy text from vendor master to PO header text.

Incoterms in purchase order should appear only in header.

Hi All,
When the inter company purchase order is created with reference to purchase requistion, in some scenarios the header and item level incoterms are copied in the purchase order.
1. Incoterms in the header level of purchase order are copied from vendor master.
2. Incoterms in the item level of purchase order are copied from customer master.
One of the observation made my by me is that - when we create a purchase order with reference to purchase requisition and prior to copying and adopting the purchase requisition if we leave the purchase organization field blank then system will copy the incoterm at the item level of purchase order.
Our requirment is 1.how we can avoid copying the icoterms at the item level of purchase order 2. In what situations the incoterms are copied in the item level of purchase order.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
To have VAT to appear in the PO print clearly ,1st heck FORM or PDF/SmartForm Form used for your PO out put type for application EF in NACE t.code. Check SmartForm in t.code: SMARTFORMS and see condition types VAT is there or not. Just check with ABAPer about condition type of VAT inclusion in SmartForm.
VAT can be inventoried or can be used for Set-Off (you can say as non-deductable or
Deductable) based on business process requirement or material behaves to purchasing document. For VAT can be inventoried , you should have a condition type with assigning of NVV key and For Set-Off VAT , you should have another condition type and assigning to an accounting key { For example: ZAV ( new one)not NVV key certainly} in tax procedure in OBYZ t.code & in t.code: OB40 , ZAV should assign to G/L account. You should have two tax codes , one for VAT - inventoried and another one for VAT- Set-Off and maintain condition record for each condition type with respective tax code.
For VAT can be inventoried, it will affect on accounting in MIGO transaction adding VAT amount to Inventory Account. For Set-Off VAT, it will affect in MIRO transaction.

Hi
Some of the Purcahse order texts can be Copied from the Vendor master, Material master & Inforecords.
If you are using a contract as a reference for the Purchase order then if you maintain them in the Contrcat the same would get copied into the Purchase Order.
In SPRO-> IMG-> Materials Management-> Purchasing-> Purchase Order-> Texts for Purchase Orders-> Define Copying Rules for Header Texts & Define Copying Rules for Item Texts
Here you can maintain the Copying texts from the Source application .
