Purchase Requisition / Order: Account Assignment Category for material type

Hi,
When creating a PR or PO for one specific material I would like the system to propose a specific account assignment Category for this material. It shouldn't allow the user to change this account assignment category.
Is it possible? How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance.
Luis.

I dont think there is any standard procedure for doing this.
My idea would be to use a user exit say EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 for PR and a similar exit for PO and code a Error message check for Material type and account assignment combination.
For ex : EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 is a exit which is called during check in a PR . SO when the user enters a combination of Material type and Acc assignment u can check for the requirements.

  • A/c assignment category for material type

    Hi Gurus,
    1) Can I fix a/c assignmnet category for a material type? For example, I want a/c assignment category K for NLAG materials. If while creating PO for a NLAG material, somebody forgets to enter A/c assignment category, it should give an error msg "A/c assignment category is manadatory for the material type"?
    2) If Gr-based IV is not checked in ERS PO, then while running MRRL statement, what type of error should come and what will be the remedy at that stage?
    Thanks,
    Kumar

    You Cannot Fix account assignment Category for a Material type.

    GR Based IV is an Optional. If you Activated this in Vendor MAster and PO then System wont allow to Post IR before GR.

  • Account assignment category for Packaging mterial

    When I create purchase order for a packaging materials , it is asking for a account assignment category. We dont want to create accounting documents as well as we dont want to use account assignment category. Is there any way to suppress the error message - account assignment mantory for material type?

    Hi,
    For Packing materials which material type you used. I think you have created in Non stock materials/Non Valuated Materials material type.
    If you use NLAG material type then you need to enter the A/c assignment category.
    So always for Packing Materials you should use VERP Material type. As Packing materials are Inventory items so you don't need to enter the Account assignment category in PO.
    Hope you got it.

  • Where can I define Account assignment category for order settlement rules

    Dear Gurus,
        When I used Tcode: CO07 to create a rework order for parent order. But I cann't find the Account assignment category = Ord (Order) in the maintain Settlement rule overview.
      Where can I define Account assignment category for order settlement rules?
      Please help me. Thanks!
    Regards
    Paul.

    I've resolved this question.
        Firstly, run OPJH - Define Order Types, we should assign settlement profile for the order type.
        Secondly, Run OKO7-Maintain Settlement Profile, find and mailtain the settlement profile. In 'Valid Receivers' we should set the field 'Order' = 1-(Settlement Optional).
        Thirdly, run CO07 - Create Order without material. We can find account assignment catetory 'ORD' in maintaining Settlement rule.

  • Account assignment category for cost centre and statistical internal order

    When issuing purchase order, we use account assignment category u2018Fu2019 for (PM) order, and u2018Ku2019 for cost centre.  What account assignment category to use, when issuing purchase order, if we want to charge to both cost centre (as mandatory) and statistical internal order (as optional entry field)?
    Do you create custom account assignment category for that purposes? 
    I reviewed Note 305385 but do not think it's relevant to us.

    Hi Stacy
    you can create a custom acct assgn category (AAC) in OME9... COPY the K to Z and make changes in it
    However, I feel the Std AAC K should serve your purpose if you want to have Cost Ctr as mandatory and Order as Optional

  • Account Assignment Category for third party process.

    Hi ,
              I would like to use different account assignment category for third party process. This account assignment cat must be assigned at the sales order itself. Is there any config for this.
    Kindly help me.
    Ram.

    You can create new account assignment category for 3rd party process  by copying existing std one 2 in configuration under MM - Purchasing - Account assignment - maintain account assignment category
    You can assign your own set of control for account assignment based on requirement.
    SAP use TAS item catgory in 3rd Sales order which is linked to Pur Req account assignment catgory 2.If you are defining own account assignment catgory than you need to config set-up with TAS sales order item catgory.
    Hope above details will help to move further...sanjay karkun

  • PO: Default Account assignment category per material?

    Hello,
    The requierement of my company is that some materials are purchased for stock and some others for Cost center. But at some point they want to move some of the materials of "cost center" into "stock". So materials will be  "looking" the same in questions of views created, etc.
    So it would be good if there is a way to default the account assignement category by material. Any idea? User-exit?...any possibility totally standard of doing this (withouth enhancemnet/user-exit)?
    Release 4.6c

    Hi,
    It can be done by having two doc. types in the PO one for the stock and the other one for the consumption.No need for the two material types.
    In doc type xy -account assignment is disabled, in the other doc type XZ the account assignment is enabled.
    Also using the user exit ME_PROCESS_CUST, you can define the condition against the doc type.

  • Account assignment mandatory for material

    I checked Qty and value update in OMS2 also.

    Then what is wrong?

    Hi,
    Account assignment determination depend on the valuation class. When your account assinged category is mandatory in that case go and see the account modifier assigned in account assinged category. After that verify the G/L account in OBYC for key GBB and account modifier and respective valuation class assigned in material master.
    If the entery does not exist then system will give you an error message.

  • Defalting Account assignment category for PRs

    Hi,
    How do I configure to have automatically default a u201CAccount assignment categoryu201D depending on PR document type, so the user cannot change/enter Account assignment categoryu201D .
    For example if the PR type is u201CService PRu201D, all line items must have the u201CAccount assignment categoryu201D as u2018Ku2019 and if the PR type is u201CCapital PRu201D the   u201CAccount assignment categoryu201D must always be u2018Au2019

    Hi there,
    There is no direct way to link document type and account assignment category.
    But you can try this which is close.
    --> One is through Personal setting in PO screen.
    Can be done at Personal Setting TAB in application toolbar( extreme right side) in the PO (ME21N) screen.
    Click default value
    PO header , enter your PO document type &
    PO item, enter acc. ***. Cat. K
    & Save.
    The other way is controlling through the item category, maintain only one account assignment category for your item category in SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Account Assignment > Define combination of item category/account assignment category.

  • New account assignment category for GR Non Valuated

    Hi Friends,
    I want to make a New account assignment category for GR Non Valuated. I created the same in SPROMMPurchasingAccount assignmentMaintain account assignment categories.
    I selected followig:
    AA Changeable at IR - X
    Consumption account -V
    Acct modification- VBR
    ID: AcctAssgt Scrn- 1
    Distribution - 1
    Partial invoice- 2
    GR- Non Valuated - X
    GR non Valuated. Frim - X
    After this When I am trying to create a PO with above made Account assgn cat. it is giving a Error that
    "With non-valuated GR, please also enter GR indicator"
    When I am clicking on GR indicator in Delivery tab, it also selects GR-Based IV in Invoice tab.
    I want to have GR to be selected automatically in Delivery tab & GR- Based IV not to select in Invoice tab.
    How to do this ?
    Regards,
    Sai Krishna

    Hi ,
    In this case you may not enter the account modifier VBR . See as there is no GR posting you don't need it . But it is useful to determine the account in PO. For example if you maintain account modifier in your account assignment category you need not to enter the G/L account at the time of creating PO in account assignmnet Tab. If will be automatically picked . But if you are not maintaining the account modifier in account assignmnet category then you have to enter the account manually .
    So choice is yours whether you need an account modifier or not depending on your scenario.

    Anupam
