Authorization role - Purchase Order by Material Groups

Hello experts,
I would like to create an authorization role where he could limit the creation of purchase orders by material groups. However, I checked all the authorization and noticed that at the level of purchases there is no authorization that allows me to such behavior. Is there any way to limit the creation of purchase orders for material group, that is, I have two material groups, and intend to have a function that only allows me to create purchase orders with materials of material group X and another function that only allow me to create purchase orders with materials of material group Y.
To limit the creation of material master by material group I used authorization:
Materials Management: Master Data MM_G
Material Master: Material Groups M_MATE_WGR
There exist any authorization to use for Materials Management: Purchasing - MM_E that allows me to limit the purchase orders by materials group?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
José Pereira

Hi,
There is not such Authorisation Object in Standard SAP which will control the PO creation/change/display based on Material Groups.
You need to create a Z-Authorisation object in T-code SU21 under Object Class MM_E and then same to be added for T-Codes ME21N/ME22N/ME23N.
And then you need to call user exit or BAdi (ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST) and call this object with help of ABAPer.

Report showing vendors for particular material groups

I am trying to perform an analysis to determine vendors which have procured items for specific material groups. I have 64 different material groups which represent indirect materials and I want to be able to determine what vendors have been procuring these materials. I have run transaction ME2C to examine purchasing documents, however there is way too much information and the system cannot generate the list.
I was curious if there was some aggregate report that I could use in the Logistics Information System. I know the Purchasing Information System has Standard Analysis for Material Groups, however I have to drill down to each Material Group and change the breakdown by Vendor to get the list and this can be somewhat time consuming considering I will have to do this 64 times.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Don

use transaction MC$<
execute the selection
in the report choose from menu settings > characteristics display
and select either Key or Key and description
then choose from menu Material group analysis > Export > transfer to XXL

Material groups-valuation classes combination

Hello,
I have material groups which are created for services, and they don't have a material code. When I purchase these materials, I enter the cost center as account assignment type, and the service I'm purchasing and the material group I mentioned for these services.
Below, it asks the GL account. In order to avoid entering this GL account every time I purchase services, I want to combine these material groups to the valuation classes. And then those valuation classes and GL accounts will be combined in T030 table.
Where could I do this combination through customizing this matching of valuation classes and the material groups?
Thanks in advance
Irem

Hello forum!
I customized a specific material group with a valuation class (transaction omqw).
During a PO creation, the GL account is displayed by default when i enter a blank material and the material group that i previously customized.
However, if I enter a material code with the specific material group, the field of the GL account is empty.
Do you have any suggestions in order to have a default GL account at PO in the case that the material has a code but it has no valuation class?

Mass Creation of Material Group Purchase info record

Dear All
Currently we are developing a custom transaction in SAP to mass upload Purchase Info records from a flat file (excel)
We are using the standard Function Module ME_POST_INFORECORD to create the PIR s
We use two different number ranges for Material and Material Group PIR s. This is set up already in SPRO>MM>PIR>Define Number Ranges
Purchasing info record for stock material (Group - IL ) have a number range X
Purchasing info record for material group (non-stock mat.)(Grpup -IN) have number range Y
So when we create a Material PIR manually in SAP it picks X number range and Y number range for Material Group PIR
But when we create Material Groups PIR via the new custom transaction it creates PIR s with Number range X.
Upon checking understood that the standard FM ME_POST_INFORECORD is always defaulting the Number Range Group as IL internally . Seems like a harcoding done by SAP
Wanted to know
- Is there any another FM we should consider while creating Material Group PIR s. Any other Function module provided by SAP for that ?
- Or what can be other way to resolve this ?
Please let me know your views on this.
Regards
Shyam

Hi,
For mass upload from flat files you can consider LSMW with different options e.g. IDoc:
Message Type INFREC
Basic Type INFRECMASS01
or simply via recording of transaction (this should be using exactly the same NR as you have when doing this manually).

Std. Sales analysis - By material-material group

Hi all,
I am executing std. material analysis(t-code MCTC)
Unnder menu VIEW >> SAP hie. drildown or hiel drildow >> Material group or prduct hierarchie
is not active, I am unable to see it by material groupwise, how to activate this as I am unable to locate IMG configue for this.
Kapil

Hi
As you are using the Standard Sales analysis for Material "MCTC" the characteristics which are database key fields are limited.
If the Material group is required you can copy the standard info structure and include the required characteristics .Take precautionary steps and with relevant SIS skills you can achieve it as below:
MC21. Create Info structure
MC22. Change Info structure
MC23. Display Info structure
MCSI. Standard Analysis of Sales (here you can see the user-defined info structures)

How can to retrieve this value from purchase order?
Some idea for it?
Many Thanks,

Hi Nishant,
I will obtain the material group, but I need pass to workflow the value for each item and compare it with another values obtained from Z table (this part is implemented).
I would need something similar to BO BUS2121 attribute "MaterialGroup".
Many Thanks.

Purchase info record for material groups

Hi all,
We have purchase info records for material groups, not material specific. When I create and activate integration model for these info records, no info record is sent to APO. Is there a way to create Transportaiton Lanes automatically in APO?
Regards,
Jenny

Hi,
In APOPurchase info record is transfered as external procurement relationship.
Generally Transportation lanes are created automatically for plant to plant transfer when you define special procurement key in MRP view of material master accordingly.
In case of T. lane for vendor, automatic generation may not work. Still you may try using correct special procurement key + material specific vendor info record..
Thanks,

Service purchase requisition/order with Material group optional

Is it possible to create a purchase requisition/order with item category D (services) without entering any material group?
We would like to enter only the G/L account but not the material group.

Hi,
It is not possible to create PR/PO without material / Service group & Item catagory D.
Better create service groups like material group which will help you for reports also.

Purchase Group to be selected based on Material Group

Dear Gurus,
I would like the system to automatically suggest the purchase group based on the material group mentioned in the purchase requisition.
Is there any way this can be done?
Regards
Veronica

There is no standard config to achieve this requirement.
You can create one Z table to maintain the relation between PGrp and Mat.Grp and use exit to populate the corresponding PGrp for the line item

Could you restrict purchase orders based upon Vendor / Material Group?

Hey everyone - I've got a general "could this be done" kind of question.
We would like to add on to the vendor purchasing view to include "valid" material groups. This would then have what material groups could be purchased for which company code for that vendor. Then in the purchase order creation / modification we would like to be able to validate this purchase order against this vendor / company code / material group combination.
Obviously with enough custom code this could be done. My question is whether it could be done without out introducing too much custom code - how would you construct such a solution to this problem?
We are a SAP 4.7 shop.
Thanks!   Ken Little

By include "valid" material groups i think it means you are introducing a new field or some value in already existing field in vendor master.
1) Now to restrict PO based upon material group a small custom code is needed.
    Use BAdI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST....here write a code with help of your ABAP person that system will first select the
    LIFNR (vendor code) entered in the PO...then it will check the same LIFNR in LFM1 table...here it will check the material
    group in the customized field & if found that it is within the list of previous listed material group then it will allow to process
    further or otherwise give a customized error message.
or
2) Use the field Group in OMSF...here maintain a common group against the material groups you want to do the purchase cycle.Now ask your BASIS person to use this group in carry out a specific activity, the user must have authorization for the combination of the activity and the authorization group.

Indranil
