Purchase Req without Plant

Hi !
Is it possible to create a Purchase Requisition without specifying the Plant?
In the Screen Layout NBB I have set Plant as optional, but the system still makes it mandatory.
Thanks!
Anisha.

MRP- purchase req. without price

Hi gurus.
I have materials with stock transfer as special procurement (MARC-SOSBL) from other Plant.
When I run MRP, PR is created without price despite that material has price in supplying Plant.
However if I create PR manually with the same data, PR is created WITH price.
I really appreciate your comments.

Question: how to move purchase req without firming

Hi SAP folks,
I've overcome this purchase req that is always showing after MPS run even the actual coverage is not so close to target (i.e. actual coverage=160, target coverage=30), i just want to know if there are possibilities that a purchase req can move in another date without firming it? i've tried removing PIRs but they still show up in the same period. Deleting it also not help as it again generated after closing.
Thanks and waiting for all your replies

Hi,
Not sure what you're trying to achieve as the question is not quite clear, but based on what i understand, a procurement proposal is generated by mrp / mps run when the available stock is not able to meet the demand.
If the need date shifts to a later date, the mrp / mps run will automatically reschedule the procurement proposal to a later date if the same is not firmed. So from your side ensure that the PR is not firmed, then system will automatically reschedule the proposals.
A PR will be firmed if you manually edit it or manually create it or if MRP / MPS run firms the PR when it falls within the planning time fence.
Hope the above clarifies your query.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE A PO WITHOUT PLANT

HELLO EXPERTS,
I have following business scenario,,
for a material X , price for plant A is 20 rupees and for other plant 25 rupees.
I have created one info record for that .
PLANT SPECIFIC INFO RECORD (plant A) 20 rupees
INFO RECORD (WITHOUT ANY PLANT ) 25 rupees
but when i going to make a PO it will ask for plant , and after i giving the plant name it will pick the plant specific value(20 rupees). So I cant able to do the 2nd scenario, i mean ..with 25 rupees.
As I know that it is not possible to make a purchase order without PLANT.
SO IS THERE ANY ALTERNATIVE WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
again in my screen layout setting ( standard purchase order NB / NBF ). IN BASIC item PLANT HAS OPTIONAL ENTRY NOT REQUIRED ENTRY.Than why it is asking that plant is mandatory when i m making a standard PO.
plz hepl me
regards

Hi,
Without entering the Plant you cann't create the PO. Plant is mandatory.
If your Materials is maintained in 2 Plant then the Price in both the plants is different (20 & 25)
So in the same PO you can enter the 2 line items with the same material and enter the 2 plants respectiviely with the net price as 20 & 25 (or will pick from Info record)
If you want same material is valuated in 2 price in single plant you can use the Split valuation method ( Val category & valuation type )

Heuristic run @ destination location is creating the purchase requisition without source plant

Hello All,
Trust you are doing well.
Believe this is the good time to connect with you all get some advice on the below mentioned scenario:
Material (XXXXXX) is discontinued at source location (Plant specific material status: 90) but the same material
(XXXXXX) is still used in destination location (plant specific material status: 60). Here heuristic run @ destination location is creating the purchase requisition without source plant.
Here the customer expectation is that “SNP should not create the order, since the material is discontinued in source plant”
Could you please advise?
Regards,
Prabin

Hi Prabin,
You can change the SNP profile to NO PLANNING automatically and exclude the target location from the SNP run. Maybe you can try using Badi: SMOD_APOCF005.
This is what I would do:
1- Do not exclude the status 90 in the iModel.
2- Then when you change the status in order to discontinue a material at the source location you will be changing the status from 60 to 90 and you will CIF this modification to APO. At this time, I would use the BAdI: SMOD_APOCF005 to identify this situation. You will need to add a code in order to identify what are the possible target plants of your source plant and you will need to change the SNP Profile at the target location.. look for a BAPI for this...
Take a look of this document to see an example code of SMOD_APOCF005:
APO SNP - Master Data Automation

Transfer to satisfy demand without raising purchase reqs to buy

Dear Guru's,
I have two issues in my project anyone plz give me suggestion
One thing in particular that I am interested in is somehow identifying excess stock which exists in project segments so that we have it readily identified to transfer to satisfy demand without raising purchase reqs to buy more.
Another thing I'm interested in is running a report to tell me all the demand available by p/n. We can do this currently as a whole report for all projects and stock items, but not individually.
Thanks and Regards,
Deethya.

Profit center for purchase order without account assignment

I've requirement to include profit centers in purchase orders without account assignment category.
The trouble is when there is no profit center maintained in material master.
Is there a way to determine profit center in purchase order for such cases?

Dear Abinash,
Define substitution in GGB1 at line item level as shown below:
Prerequisite : BSEG-WERKS = Maintain plant
Substitution : BSEG-PRCTR = maintain profit centre as constant value
After define it, assign to the co.code.

Pur Req via Plant maintenance order

Hi,
When Non stock item is assigned to a Plant Maintenance order, A purchase requisition is created automatically for that item.
During the creation of purchase requision it is required to enter goods recipient and unloading point( few fields are made mandatory)
Issue: At this stage we are giving planne delivery time and GR processing time.
But when we check the Purchase req for that item, Only GR processing time is considered not Planned delivery time.
Please provide your suggestion, why planned delivery time is not considered for scheduling of purchase req.
Thanks and regards,
Nataraj

Hi!,
I think you should check the operation control key you are using. Whether that key allows 1. Externally processed opearation 2. allows the scheduling of externally processed operation. If both are true then it will take the standard values defined for that opearation for scheduling. if 2nd is not true then it will schedule as per planned delivery time.
I think this will solve your problem.

Purchase req type after MRP Run

Ca we control the type of Purchase req after MRP Run.
Now for every material it is creating "NB" type purchase req.

Goto -OPPR-Enter Plant Code and Maintain MRP Group -0000( as SAP Standrad for External Procurement ) -Select Scheduling /Doc Type tab -Here you can assing the PR type as per your requirement so the while MRP run , it will selct the PR documents types based on OPPR .At the same time , assing this MRP group in MRP1 view of the material .

Purchase Req to Purchase Order

Is there a transaction in SAP where a user can both release a purchase requisition AND create a purchase order from that same req without having to leave that transaction and go into another?

Hi,
A suggestion:
Create a Z program for combining both the needs by using the below BAPI's
BAPI_REQUISITION_RELEASE - Release Purchase Requisition Item by Item
BAPI_REQUISITION_RELEASE_GEN - Release Entire Purchase Requisition
BAPI_PO_CREATE - Create Purchase Order
BAPI_PO_CREATE1 - Create Purchase Order
I am not aware of a BAPI or FM which can create a PO w.r.t a PR, but maybe one of the above BAPI on PO create can be used.
Check with your abaper if there a FM which can create a PO from PR, then you use it.
There is one FM - OIJ_EL_DOCG_CREATE_PO_PR, check if this can be used.

Vivek

Info Record and Purchase Req

I created a purchase Req and when and I have following doubts in this.
1. Once I entered plant itu2019s automatically populating storage location. Material maintained for different storage locations but I am not sure how it's populating specific one.
2. One I click on source of supply it shows me different info record and I selected one of the info record for assigning the source. How this process is different from mE57.To me both look same.
3. I created the PO and I entered different price then info record and my info update was checked but still it didn't update info record with new price. Any suggestion why?
Thanks

hi,
1. You would be maintaining the MRP view of the MMR....Never forget the possible assignment for the Plant to the storage location is provided in the SPRO enterprise structure for the MM....
2. Yes the process is merely same...Also never forget that there may be many inforecords for the vendor material, based on the different organisatinal levels provided and for its combinations...
3. THe price never gets updated in the info record, but always the PO price history gets updated...you can see the PO price history in transaction ME1P...

Purchase Req: workflow

Scenario:
A - Creates the PR
B - Approves and workitem goes to C, if it's above certain amount.
C - Rejects the PR and work item goes back to A
Currently when the work item is updated, after rejectionby A it goes back to C instead of going through the workflow to B again.
We are using WS20000077 and have done the configurations. Is it possible to change the workflow to make sure that when A updates the rejected document it goes through the workflow again, ie first to B and then to C without bypassing B ?

Creating Roles for Purchase Req. release strategy with classification

Hi friends,
Since I have created Purchase req rel strategy where I have four release strategy
1. For Plant 1 When value <= 5000 (Officer) will release , release code 01 release release strategy r1 and rel code L1
2 For Plant 1 When value >= 5000 (Manager) will release , release code 01 release release strategy r2and rel code L2
Now the manager will have 2 release code,if officer is absent he could release the requisition.
Same has to be done for plant 2
The release Group and code needs to be assigned to the Roles , could anybody tell me where i could know about roles and will be able to create roles and assign authorisation objects to the Roles , and release group and code to the enduser.
though its a basis job , since I have no idea , I mean I have never worked with Roles ,as now I have created the Release strategy with classification I need to assign authorisation objects to the Roles as I have four release strategy
1. For Plant 1 lower value of requisition 1 codeL1(Officer)
2 For higher value of requisition 2 code say Li and L2(Manager)
Manager should have 2 codes if officer is absent he could release
Same has to be done for Plant 2
Thanks N Regards
Siddhartha

Hii,
Steps:
1) Create a Role
2) Add the authorization Object M_EINK_FRG by taking the manual option
3) Assign Release Code and Release Grp
4) Assign the Role to the User ID which has the authorization of the Release Code and Grp.

Contract from centralized purchase organization without company code

Hi Experts.
We have six company codes
And having one centralized purchase organization and it is not assigned to any company codes
While creating contracts all company code uses this centralized purchase organization.
My question is :-
I want to create contract with above centralized purchase organization without company codes in it so while converting above contract to po we can use any one company code in the po.
How to create contract with centralized purchase organization without company code? (Later this contract can be used to convert po from any the company codes )
Please helpu2026
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
What you need to do is:
In SPRO->Org.Structure->Definition->Materials Management->Maintain
Purch. Org. you need to "declare" all your Purch. Orgs.
In "SPRO->Org.Structure->Assignment->Materials Management->Assing
Purch. Org. to company code" you must NOT assign your corporal Purch.
Org to any company.
In the Plant assignment screen assign your corporal Purch. Org to all
the relevant Plants.
In this kind of hierarchy you make all the purchasing activities
(contracts, PO's etc.) for this purch org.
Thats all.
In the case that you have 2 level hierarchy: one corporal and many
company\plant assigned purch. orgs you need to do additional step.
After assigning a "small" purch. orgs to the plants and companies you
can assign them to "reference" Purch Org. (that not assigned itself to
any plant/company) in the ""SPRO->Org.Structure->Assignment->Materials
Management->Assing Purch. Org. to reference Purch. Org."
That kind of hierarchy allows you to make a contracts at the "reference"
org. level and use them in PO's by the lowest purch. orgs.
Hope that it will help.
Regards,
Udaya.

Force buyers to create Purchase Order with ref. to a Pur. Req., Quotation or Pur. Ord.
Transaction OMET
Create a new entry, give it a name and tick :-
Ref. to PReq
Ref. to P.O.
Ref. to quotation
Next, you've got to associate via SU01
Click Parameters, insert a new parameter id EFB to the authorization code.
Type in Parameters value you want e.g. XX
You have to assign the control for ALL the SAP buyers via thier SAP users id.
Logoff and login again. Then try to create a Purchase Order without a reference.
