> When you save such PO, it is indirectly saved as PR only(internally), so there is no such difference physically....It not send to any of the vendor untill the PO is entered with the required vendor and send and saved as PO...
What is the process cycle if we use a PO with vendor unknown . I know the process cycle with Vendor known .
When you make such PO the system will ask you while saving with the tab " Save as PR" or PO with no vendor defined.....you need to click on it and save the PO as PR...

Purchase Order with Vendor Hierarchy

Hello,
I created a PO to a vendor that is in a vendor hierarchy and I wanted that the pricing conditions considered were the pricing conditions of the top level vendor.
The pricing conditions that are being considered are the conditions from the vendor for what I've created the PO.
Can anyone help me in this thing?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Nelson Ribeiro.

The functionality is available on the following link:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/12/0845cd470311d1894a0000e8323352/frameset.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/12/0845cd470311d1894a0000e8323352/frameset.htm</a>
The requirment is when we are creating a PO for a vendor that is one a lower level of the hierarchy the pricing conditions to be carried out are the ones associated with the vendor that is on the top level.
I hope I was able to clarify you with my doubt.

Purchase order and vendor declaration work list problem

Now, I'm testing GTS 8.0 for FTA related things.
In the proceeding the test, I stuck in a problem.
After making purchase order with order type NB, the system should make the worklist for the long-vendor declaration.
But it dosen't make the worklist after creating of PO.
But it make the worklist after Goods Receipts.
I made related configurations with it.
1. Activate Transfer of Purchasing Documents ( MM0A ).
2. Configure Control Setting for Document Transfer.
In the second transaction, I selected the Application Level MM0A and make document type FNB(Standard PO).
And I checked all the check boxes including Generate Worklist of Vendor-Based Long-Term Vendor Declarations.
I did the same configurations with MM0C.
I searched in every direction, but I fail to get the reason.
Thank you for the reading.
Best Regards,
Jong Hwan.

I have checked I have already assigned the Partner Scheme to the PO type.
And, In the first transaction you wrote above(/SAPSLL/PREF_AGR_R3), I got a message.
Please check the following items:.
check activity 03 of legal regulation , "Preference tariff processing"
Simulation Run - No Database Changes
And in the second transaction, No data was found for the selection creteria.
Thank you.

Purchase Order with Invoice Plan

Hi,
I need to understand working with Invoicing plans for a Purchase Order. Especially the service PO for the rents and other related services.
How the PO is linked to the Invoice Plan and how the process happens in SAP?
Thanks in advance!

Creating an Invoicing Plan
The following procedure describes how to create an invoicing plan with the pre-Enjoy ordering transactions (ME21, ME22, ME23).
The procedure described is also applicable u2013 with certain restrictions u2013 to the Enjoy purchase order (ME21N, ME22N, ME23N).
If you are using the Enjoy purchase order, you will find:
·         The Invoicing Plan button and the indicators for GR-based invoice verification (GR-Based IV), service-based invoice verification (Srv.-Based IV), evaluated receipt settlement (ERS), and invoice receipt (Inv. Receipt) among the item details on the Invoice tab page.
·         The account assignment among the item details on the Account Assignment tab page
·         The Goods Receipt and GR Non-Valuatedindicators among the item details on the Delivery tab page
Prerequisites
Vendor Master Record
Before you can use the invoicing plan with automatic settlement, the Evaluated Receipt Settlement Delivery indicator must be set on the Purchasing Data screen in the vendor master record.
(If you wish to enter invoicing dates manually, this is not necessary.)
Purchase Order
●     We recommend using a framework order (that is a purchase order with a validity period and a reason for rejection). The invoicing plan can adopt the validity period specified in the PO header.
●     PO items for which you wish to use an invoicing plan must have account assignment irrespective of whether a material with a master record, a material described by a short text, or an external service is involved.
●     The GR/IR control facility must be set up in such a way that no goods receipt (or, in the case of services, no service entry) is expected - only an incoming invoice. If you wish to have automatic settlement, you must also set the Evaluated Receipt Settlement indicator.
If you nevertheless wish to allow service entry sheets for the item (e.g. for information purposes only), you must set the GR Non-Val. indicator.
Customizing
Under Purchase Order à Invoicing Plan in Customizing for Purchasing, you can maintain data such as the desired invoicing plan types, date categories, and date descriptions.
Procedure
       1.      Create a purchase order with account assignment (framework order).
Click to access the item overview (or the overview of service lines if you chose item category D for services).
       2.      Enter the desired material or service, the quantity, and the price.
       3.      Select the desired item and click Account Assignments to access the account assignment screen. Enter the account assignment for this item.
       4.      Click to access the item detail screen. Check that the GR/IR control indicators are set correctly on the item detail screen.
○     The GR and GR-Based Invoice Verification or Service-Based Invoice Verification indicators must not be set.
○     IR must be set.
○     You must set ERS if you wish to have Evaluated Receipt Settlement.
○     If you wish to have service entry sheets purely for information, for example, allow non-valuated goods receipt (i.e. select the GR Non-Val and GR indicators).
       5.      Choose Item ® Invoicing Plan. A window appears, in which the invoicing plan types predefined in Customizing are suggested. Choose the desired invoicing plan type and click Continue.
You can use the following invoicing plan types:
○     Periodic Invoicing Plan
■      You use the periodic invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in each period.
■      The system creates the invoicing dates automatically on the basis of the settings in Customizing.
■      The invoicing date and the amount to be invoiced are shown for each settlement period (e.g. month). In the case of the periodic invoicing plan, the amount represents the total value of the PO item.
■      You can change the suggested dates and block individual dates for automatic invoicing if necessary.
■      You can enter the start and end dates for the invoicing plan.
■      With the Dates from and Dates to fields, you can determine that an invoicing plan does not contain invoicing dates extending over the entire validity period of the purchase order but only for a certain period within that validity period. (E.g. within a validity period from 1.1. to 12.31, only dates within the period 1.1. to 06.30.)
■      With the Horizon field, you control how far into the future dates can be created. If you enter a date rule that adds six months to the current date here, invoicing dates will be created for just half a year in advance in each case.
The system automatically creates new dates if you change the invoicing plan or when you invoke the transaction for Updating Periodic Invoicing Plans. See Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
■      The In Advance indicator allows you to specify whether the invoice is to be created with regard to a prior or subsequent period. (E.g. at the beginning of February, either in advance for the month of February or in arrears for the month of January).
■      In addition, fields with information on the existing invoicing plan are displayed (e.g. the calendar upon which the date determination process is based).
○     Partial Invoicing Plan
■      You use the partial invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in several partial amounts.
■      You get an empty date overview in which you can manually enter the desired dates.
■      If you work with a reference invoicing plan, the system automatically generates dates in accordance with the reference plan.
You have the following options:
●      You create a reference invoicing plan in Customizing for the invoicing plan type.
●      You enter an existing invoicing plan as reference plan directly in the invoicing plan for the PO item.
■      You can flag a date in field B (Billing/Invoicing Rule) as follows:
●      As a down payment (percentage or value)
●      As an invoicing date (percentage or value)
●      As a final invoice
       6.      Click to return to the item overview.
       7.      Click to save the purchase order item with the invoicing plan.
You can then start the automatic invoice creation process during invoice verification.
For more information, refer to the section Settlement of Amounts Due Under Invoicing Plans.
Once assigned to an item, the invoicing plan type (e.g. partial invoicing plan) cannot be changed. If you wish to assign a different invoicing plan type, you must delete the item and create a new one.
Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
If you have assigned a periodic invoicing plan to a PO item but have not initially defined invoicing dates covering the entire validity period of the purchase order, you can generate further dates in due course.
You have created a PO item with a periodic invoicing plan for a certain planned procurement. The purchase order is valid from 1.1. to 12.31. When creating the invoicing plan, you specified one invoicing date per month for the first half of the year. You have not yet planned any dates for the second half of the year because you do not wish information from the invoicing plan to be passed on to purchase order commitments at this stage, for example.
By mid-June, it is clear that the PO is to proceed as envisaged, and you therefore wish to schedule invoicing dates for the remainder of its validity period.
Procedure
To schedule further invoicing dates, proceed as follows:
Choose Purchase order ® Follow-on functions ® Period. invoicing plan
Specify the purchase orders for which invoicing dates are to be generated in the invoicing plan and perform the function.
A log can be created if desired.
Result
The system adds further dates on the basis of information such as the validity period or horizon from Customizing, the purchase order, and the invoicing plan.

indranil

Replacement order with vendor

Hi experts
I have a question on if SAP supports an replacement order with vendor.
The scenario is the client could do a return PO with their vendor and then create another replacement order just to exchange the physical goods, there is no cost incurred for the replacement.
The thing is if we handle such scenario with one return PO + new PO, there would definitely by financial impact as in invoice creation, LIV, etc.
Therefore, would like to see if there is any SAP best practice / standard functions that we can make use of.
Thanks and BR
Dom

Purchase order with quantity range value

Hi All,
I want to have PO price to be taken from vendor info with quantity based values.
For ex: The vendor has fixed a rate for 500 qty with X rate. and above 500 qty Y rate.
My scenario is i want to raise the PO with this rate. How can i do this?
Note: If i do first PO with 300 qty, then rate it is taking is X*300
Now if i do second purchase order, with 300 qty, then the first 200 qty should go with X rate and remaining 100 should go with Y rate. ie, this purchase order will have combination of X & Y rate.
Please give the solution for this.

Dear All,

I Purchase some material to my x vendor. when he send the material , he charge freight amount on it. now please suggest me how to create a purchase order with freight value & I want to take freight effect on every material. vendor is not divide freight amount on every material. now what will i do. If i take this effect only one material than My material map get change. How to take this effect on every material.
Regards
Vimal

Hi,
When vendor send material , vendor send firght value invoicce, means at the time of PO you don't know it,so it can be consider as unplanned delivery cost in SAP and you can post this cost in MIRO ,on details tab in unplanned delivery field.
In following path you can decide where this value should add in material cost or G/l account in following path
In SPRO ,Maintain settings as shown MM---> Logistic Invoice Verification -->Incoming Invoice --> Configure How unplanned delivery costs are posted

ME21N Create Purchase Order with reference to previous Purchase Order

Hello Expert,
Previously have been using Purchase Info Records for reference when creating Purchase Orders using ME21N. We then have deleted the Pricing Condition in the Purchase Info Record using ME12. Now when we are trying to create a new Purchase Order with the same values (Vendor, Material, Plant and Storage Location), the transaction code ME21N automatically fetches the previous values of the Pricing Condition as if it was cached. I remember of studying this in the MM academy but I am not sure how to disable it.
This error only happens when we are creating the first Purchase Order after the deletion, for the second Purchase Order, error will be prompted to the user saying that the Pricing Condition could not be found.
I would like to ask where in configuration can I delete this cache behaviour or is that any work around for this.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Antony,
I found the "Update Prices" function in the Conditions Tab of the Item Details helps to refresh the data and fetch the new information from the Purchase Info Record. I would like to ask is there anyway to provoke this function automatically everytime when a user runs the transaction ME21N.
Thanks in advance again.

Email Purchase Order with mail body

Hi, ALL,
I would like to email purchase order to vendors with customized email subject and body. I did configuration in IMG according to note 191470. I also set up title and text in IMG. Now I can email PO with subject (title). But there is no mail body ( the text? ) . Is there anybody know how to do it? Thanks a lot!
Jack

Hi,
In standard you can send purchase order by mail with subject line (title) only and you can not send mail body text.
Check the link:
Send PO External email with attachement and Body text

Partners are not automatically flowing in to UB Purchase Orders from Vendor

Hi Gurus,
We have an issue where in even though we have maintained the partners in vendor master, the same is not flowing in to Purchase Orders with UB document type Purchase Orders. User has to select the partners manually from the drop down. This is not the case with NB document type Purchase Orders.
Please advise as soon possible.
Thanks,
Shashidhar

Hi There
Seems you have not assigned the Partner schemas to document types,,

Purchase order with ref to central contract

we have created centrallly agreed contract with one vendor , but client wants to create purchase order using that contract but with different vendor.(vendor field only ) (not through partner roles and vendor sub range)pl suggest if there is way.

>

Is your problem related to contract and support (in terms of "SAP contract and support"), or are you rather talking about relations between different data objects / tables inside your application? If the latter, being a little more verbose (and, especially, posting table definitions) surely would help.

If yours is a Free Goods Scenario. Then Mark the Free Item Tab ( Next to Returns) in the Purchase Order detail tab.
Now you can create a Purchase order with Zero Price. By the time GR thru. 511 Mov. Type (Material receipt with out charge) you can receive the material.

Rewards Welcome.

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Hi,
There are two scenarios where the purchase order is created with zero value.
1. Standard Purchase order with Free tick indicator.
Whenever we expect a material with free of cost from vendor, we use to put the free indicator in item overview. This means the material is valuated at zero price irrespective of price control in material master. Quanitiy is updated while receipts.
Conditions tab in item detail doesnt appear.
2. Consignment PO.
While creating a purchase order for consignment, the system doesnt ask us the price and the condition tab doesnt appear in item detail.
An info record for consignment must be maintained before making the GR.
Hope i have clarified. If you want any further clarification. please do reply.
