Purchasing group at info record

hi,
I maintain different  Pgroup  at  PIR for a same material  ( which is different from the PGroup at material master). I have two suppliers for a same materials  and dedicated buyer for each .
However when the MRP runs and splits the PR between vendors,  it still seems to be copying the PR from material master rather than PIR.  Am I missing something. 
Regards
Rav

How will we handle a same material being supplied by two vendors  and MRP determining one vendor based on Quota.  Now the buyer looks for  PRS under his group, he won't get it.  Does this means it will make sense only to use one PGroup for one material  ?  ( If so then PIR pgroup seems to be redendent  and still  not convinced that it can work only for PR/POs created directly?)
regards
Ravi

  • CK11n Costing Run does not pull purchasing price from info record.

    Hi,
    I have material which is a semi finished product (Material type: SEMI) and is purchased from a fixed vendor (specified in the source list).
    The costing run does not pick up the purchasing price from the purchasing info record but
    instead incorrectly picks up the standard price from the material master (Costing 2 view).
    Can you please help me solve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Ketan

    Execute OPL1
    or
    SPRo>>IMG>>Controlling>>Product Cost Controlling>>Cost Object Controlling>>Product Cost by Order>>manufacturing Order>>Check Costing Variants for Manufacturing Orders (PP)
    Select the costing variant in the table from "Change Costing Variant: Overview" Overview Screen
    Click Detail Button
    Click Valuation Variant Button in the Control Tab

    In Material Valuation Tab Set Price from Purchase Inforecord as Priority 1 if you want to use Price from Purchase Inforecord for semi-finished product during CK11N
    You can list down Priority 2 to 5 depending on your requirement
    This would solve your problem

  • Error material not maintained by purchasing when creating info record

    Hi Expert,
    I have an issue when creating info record, error says "Material ******* not maintained by purchasing". I've checked in MM03 purchasing view, all has been maintained and at the bottom there is message says "No plant-specific data exist". Accounting view also maintained. I've also checked in MARC table for this material and plant. It existed. I cannot see anything wrong on the material master setup but not sure why am i having this error...
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Error says "Material ******* not maintained by purchasing" & you checked purchasing view has been maintained.
    OK. Just cross check following optionS
    Option-1: You creating info- record for material with combination of plant & vendor....check did the material have purchasing view for same  plant-the info-record you are creating!
    Option-2: If no purchasing view for material with same plant , just extend in t.code MM50 for E     Purchasing
    Option-3: Check the material for same plant, did Procurement type F (External procurement) is there
    Option-4: Check Profit Center in Plantdata/ sto-2 view of material.

  • Info records pulling into purchase orders

    I have created an info record for a material group only (i.e. without material master as it is for a non-stock item).  It is my understanding that this creates a vendor-material group relationship.  When creating a purchase order for this unique combination of vendor & material group, the info record information only pulls in if I physically type the info record number within ME21 (or choose it from the drop down list).  I would have thought that given that there is only 1 info record for each vendor-material group relationship, that the info record info should pull in automatically.  Is there any way of doing this? 
    My ultimate aim is to automatically pull in a tax code when each purchase order is created.
    Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    you say ME21, is this a typo or do you really work with this old transaction?
    Is your PO just for a text material, or do you purchase a material that has a material number?
    If material with material number, then the info record for a material group will not come in, even the material group entered in the material is the same.
    usually my process starts with a requisition, and next step is assign vendor e.g. with ME57, this assignment brings the info record into the game.

  • Info records field in Purchase Order

    How can we make info-record field mandatory for selected purchasing organization when creating Purchase Order using ME21N.

    I can think of 3 options:
    1) Use field settings if you want it mandatory for all purchasing organizations.
    2) Another way would be to create 2 document types - one with info record mandatory and other with info record optional. People purchasing for the purchasing organizations where info record is required will be authorized only for the first document type (where info record is mandatory)
    3) Use user exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_002 (the one for PO Release). This can be activated even if PO release is not active.

  • A problem with Purchase info Record...

    Hi all,
      Am a basis person with no experience on MM... so ill like to ask you MM geeks this....It will be best if i narrate my ordeal....I am try to investigate some things....I have a PO which was created on 8.12.2009 and a purchase info record related to this PO created on the 30.09.2009...and created by(Info Rec) a person who has the authorization to created POs but not info records.
    Now my questions Are this.
    1. Is it possible to have an info record created before its PO.
    2. Are info records created automatically? if yes, when do this occur...

    Hi Phemmy,
    PO is a purchasing document. Info record is a master data that has a material-vendor relation set.  SAP recommends to create Info record before PO as it is a master data and the conditions ( net price & effective price) are adopted from it.
    1. Po can be created before Info Recod. It is not mandatory the otherway round but recommended.
    2. Info record is created automatically when a Po is created if the Infoupdate indicator is set in Po (Item details --> Material Data Tab).
    3. Uncheck the Infoupdate indicator if the info record need not be created.

  • Purchasing info record: country of origin copied from Basic Data View

    How/where can I make sure that the Country of Origin from the Material Mastewr Data is ALWAYS copied into a purchasing info record for that same material?

    Hi,
       As of my knowledge, the country of origin will be copied to po from  material master and the same is copied from po to invoice. So in your case, in invoice, it will be copied from po only, that is DE will come in invoice.
      Please check the following note for better understanding:
    Note 481600 - FAQ: Import data in purchasing
    Note 418707 - Info record: Country of origin automatically filled
    Please check the link too: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/8b/2ae341bd955f24e10000000a1550b0/content.htm

  • Changing purchasing groups

    Dear All,
    I have recently created two new purchasing groups, this has been tested and looks o.k.
    I'm just about to add the new purchasing groups to the relevant material masters and info records, I'm going to use a mass update transaction.
    My question is : Can anyone think of any pittfalls in changing these groups on info records or materials masters, or are the groups used for reporting purposes.
    Kind Regards
    Mark.
    Edited by: Tony Lannon on Feb 5, 2008 5:17 PM

    The functionality of Pruchase group is reporting as well as authorization purpose and it can be used in Release strategy
    you can change it in the info record and or material master there won't be any transactional dependancy except the reporting.
    The purchasing organization is further subdivided into purchasing groups (buyer groups), which are responsible for day-to-day buying activities.
    A purchasing group can also act for several purchasing organizations.
    Hope this will help you

    I have already made Message No: 06 136 No info record exists for item & as an error message, but still it is showing error messge saying "Net price should be greater than 0"
    Kindly suggest me.

    Dear Mahesh,
    It is from SCM team they will create info record.
    Purchase dept will raise PO. 
    While creating PO by purchase dept & if Info record is not created then it should throw an error message saying info record is not existing for the item so that they can tell to SCM to create info record.
    But currently sytem is saying an error saying that NET PRICE IS GREATER THAN 0 ONLY, as I told earlier in PO they can't enter price manually.
    Hence error message during creation of PO should come as NO INFO RECORD EXIST.
    I have made following settings:  IN SPRO SETTINGS FOR SCREEN LAYOUT MADE INFO RECORD AS MANDATORY.
    MADE 06 136 AS AN ERROR MESSAGE.
    After all this process still it is showing as NET PRICE IS GREATER THAN 0 ONLY

  • Info record created in automatic?

    Hello gúrus,
    I need your help again.
    In the part of the customizign "Default values for Purchasing" the field "Info record updated" to the purchase order is in blank, because of we don't want to create the info record in automatic.
    But, when we are creating a purchase order, the info record is created in automatic.
    Do you know in which part of the customizing we need to inactive something in order to not create the info record in automatic?
    Thanks in advance and I will wait your answer a.s.a.p.
    Regards,
    Sandra Palomo

    even if system is using the info update indicator to create info record then u should not worry about that because  actually system is not genrating the info record it is just storing the price of po as .......price of last purcahsing document
    what i mean to say is as the po conditions are time independent conditions  
    and in info record anly time dependent conditions are stored
    now to cross check what i have said u create a po (for whch u have not created the info record manually using me11)
    now as u r saying system is creating a ino record automatically . now go to me12 and give vendor ,material plant,purch.org.   and see in condition page what is the price
    i will say it will be  0 (zero)      so ultimatliy there is no info record and it will not affect any business scenerio of yours
    if u do not agree with my point then please let me know
