Purchasing group transacting for multiple purchasing organizations

Hi,
I have a requirement in which i have certain purchasers defined as purchasing groups in my organizational structure. However, these purchasing groups perform sourcing transactions (e.g., bid invitation, auction) for multiple purchasing organizations. In the organizational structure, these purchasing groups are created under an organizational unit that isn't defined as a purchasing organization. They appear "free-floating" since they are not assigned to a particular purchasing organization.
In sourcing transactions (e.g., bid invitation, auction), the list of purchasing groups from which I can choose from depends on the purchasing organization I select. Is there a way to include the "free floating" purchasing groups in the drop-down list?
Thanks and regards,
Joy

Hi Joy,
Its difficult to have a P.Grp with out a P.Org assignment.
My idea would be:
Assign this P.Grp to one of the P.Orgs (lets say POrg1). Add the entire root as the responsibility of this P.Grp.
When the Purchasers in this P.Grp create a Bid Invitation, the POrg1 will be defaulted always.
At the time of saving the Bid Invitation, use the "BBP_PGRP_ASSIGN_BADI" BADI to overwrite POrg1 value with any other POrg you desire.
You may test it out.
Cheers,
Akash

  • Creation of Material for multiple sales organizations

    Hello,
    is there a way to create a material for one sales organization and that this material can easily be copied
    to other sales organisations? Now it takes a lot of time to create the materials for different sales organizations with
    transaction MM01. Thanks in advance,
    Ivo

    is 5 seconds a lot of time?
    make use of copy from fields in MM01 initial screen, enter as copy from material the material number you want enhance with a new sales org view.
    At the organisation pop-up make sure you enter the copy from sales org and plant on the right.
    next step is just to go into the material and click save button.

  • Group number for multiple groups

    I have a report that has two groups. I would like to get the total number of groups in Group 2 under each group of Group 1. I know there is a Group Number field in the special fields but that will only give me the group number of Group 2 for the whole report. To clarify assuming Group 1=A and Group 2=B:
    A-1
         B-1
         B-2
         B-3
    A-2
         B-1
         B-2

    HI,
    If i understood exactly, You want to display Number of B groups  in group A's Footer. Like
    A-1
    B-1
    B-2
    B-3
    Total No Of B:3
    A-2
    B-1
    B-2
    Total No Of B:2
    Right?!!
    For this You need to write 3 formulas,
    1, First Formula,
    Shared numberVar Num:=0;
    Drag and drop this formula field into GroupA header. And Suppress it
    2,Second formula,
    Shared numberVar Num:=Num+1;
    Num
    Drag and drop this formula field into GroupB header. And Suppress it
    3,Third one,
    shared numberVar Num;
    Num;
    Drag and drop this formula field into GroupA Footer With Appropriate Label(Like "Total No Of B:"). This will give you the count of B's in GroupA footer.

  • Report to fetch assigned transactions for multiple role.

    Hi,
    I am looking for some report or the way, i can get the list of transaction assigned to multiple roles in one go.
    Actually i tried SUIM, but here i have to specify one role at a time and have the list of transactions assigned to it.
    My scenario is, i have around 100 composite roles. Now there is a requirment for a report, which gives information of transactions assigned to each role. If i do it one by one, i have to do it for 100 times.
    Please suggest the best and quickest way.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Pravin

    > Another way could be to look into the AGR_1251 table for object S_TCODE values. But, this will populate transactions that could possibly not have included intentionally (in the menu). For eg there are many transactions which need authroization for another tcode in the background which have to be inserted as an authroization value.
    Which is good, because those are the actual tcode rights, not only the intended ones......
    To do this for composites I disagree with Julius on using Excel or Acces
    Try the SAP query tools, they're there for you. If you go to the quickviewer (SQVI) you can easily join tables AGR_AGRS and AGR_1251 by AGRNAME. Now if you look for object S_TCODE you can see the relation between a tcode assignment and a composite role.

  • How to create group bom for multiple plants with different company codes

    In my current scenario we have 5 Company codes with a plant with each company.

  • Need to create a transaction for multiple select statements?

    Hello,
    I am a newbie and have a question about database transaction, e.g. whether/not to enclose multiple select statements (and select statements only) into a transaction.
    My database is set to transaction isolation level 2: REPEATABLE READ, where dirty read & non-repeatable read are not allowed, only phantom read is allowed.
    Now, in my code I have a number of methods that only contain select statements only. Since they are merely select statements, which don't do any modifications to the data, I am not sure if I am supposed to enclose them into a transaction.
    However, if I don't put them into a transaction will the transaction isolation level takes into effect automatically when another user is modifying the data that I am reading? In other words, I need to make sure the select statements will never do either dirty read or non-repeatable read. But I am not sure if it is necessary to enclose multiple select statements in a transaction, since I believe putting the select statements into a transaction will put some locks to the data being read which may reduce the concurrency of my application.
    Any help/advice would be very much appreciated.
    Duane

    You might want to try asking this on a forum that specific to your database. I suspect the answer can vary depending on the database and probably requires in depth knowledge of what the database does.

  • Vendor replication to multiple purchasing organizations in SRM

    In R/3 we have extended vednors to multiple purchasing organizations. In SRM we want to keep the same structure. However, when we replicate vendors from R/3 to SRM, the vendor is only connected to one purchasing organization in SRM. Due to the amout of vendors we have, we do not want to extend vendors manually in SRM. Running BBP_GETVD for a second time does not work either. Has anybody any suggestions how to deal with this?
    Ed Muhlradt

    Hi
    <u>Refer to Web page transactions - Manage Business Partners ( or Instead of BBPSTART or BBPSC01, type the transaction - BBPMAININT ) in the SRM web page.
    There, you can associate multiple purchase organizations to the same vendor.</u>

  • Questions: Vendor Account Group and Purchasing Organization

    Dear SAP experts,
    I'm just a novice user and would like to have your advice on the following questions:
    1. How to change Vendor Account Group
    Vendor has been created already with wrong account group. Can we change account group??
    2. How to add Purchasing Organization
    Vendors have been created without purchasing organization. When we try to raise contract, error msg. mentioned that "There is no purchasing organization for this vendor number"
    Can we add purchasing organization to that vendors?? If so, could you pls let me know the procedure.
    Thanks with rgds,
    Su

    Hello,
    Changing Vendor Account Group is not possible. Block the wrongly created vendor (FK05) & create a new vendor under correct group (FK01). Transfer all the balances from wrong vendor to new vendor code.
    Use Transaction code XK01 to extend the Vendor to purchasing organization. XK01 would allow to enter purchasing view of the vendor.

  • Same Purchasing group assigment to multiple Purchasing Org

    Dear all,
    I am facing an issue in SRM 5.0 in Classic Scenario.
    In R/3 the freedom exist to assign independently the Purchasing Organization and the Purchasing Group to a PREQ or PO.
    Then the following lists have been created:
    <u>PurchORG</u>:
    - PORG1: Porg of country 1
    - PORG2: Porg of country 2
    <u>and PurchGROUP</u>
    - PGRP1: Pgrp Office sup
    - PGRP2: Pgrp IT
    and then I want to be able to use all the following combinations:
    PORG1-PGRP1
    PORG1-PGRP2
    PORG2-PGRP1
    PORG2-PGRP2
    To do that I create in my Organization Plan the following:
    - PORG1
         -PGRP11
         -PGRP12
    - PORG2
         -PGRP21
         -PGRP22
    However as I am in Classical Scenario I need to link the OrgPlan Pgrp to the coresponding in R/3
    - PORG1
         -PGRP11 >PGRP1
         -PGRP12 >PGRP2
    - PORG2
         -PGRP21 >PGRP1 : Error Purchasing group ... in system ... already assigned to ... (message BBP_ATTR 030)
         -PGRP22
    1) I have read somewhere but I can not find it anymore that the system messages can be updated to avoid this error and to allow that functionality. Has somebody done it? Where is it? I am correct?
    2) Otherwise do you have an option to do it? 
    How must I create my Org Plan as I suppose all Porg and PGrp must exist once in Org Plan.
    Then must I use the BADI BBP_PGRP_FIND with Determine Responsible Purchasing Group(s) BADI BBP_PGRP_FIND.  Can you explain how, or provide piece of code.
    I looked in doculentation but I don't see clearly the difference between the 2 exit objects (they seem duplicate for me):
    - ES_PURCH_DATA - This output structure should contain the object type and the object ID of the default purchasing group and the higher-level purchasing organization. If you are dealing with a backend purchasing group (purchasing organization), then you must also define the corresponding backend IDs.
    - ET_PURCH_DATA - This output table passes the list of all responsible purchasing groups and their higher-level purchasing organizations. A table line is formed corresponding to structure ES_PURCH_DATA.
    Thanks in advance

    Re: Purchasing group from external requirements
    Re: BAdI BBP_PGRP_FIND
    Re: Purchasing group from external requirements
    Re: Sample code for BADI implementation
    Every purchaser will be assigned to the relevant purchasing groups in Organization structure and purchasing groups have the product responsibility (product category) and person/organization responsiblility assigned in the 'Responsibility' tab. I think this should be sufficient to get the linkage.
    Re: "Proc_Group" assignment to shopping cart  from transferred requisitions
    Using BAdI BBP_PGRP_FIND for purch.group determination
    Use Function Module -> BBP_OM_READ_PURCH_ORG_ID
    Give Logical system and Purchasing group to this FM.
    It will give you
    ES_PURCH_ORG-OT
    ES_PURCH_ORG-OBJID
    Use this info in table HRP1000(Infotype 1000 DB Table) to get the value of text.
    Function module - BBP_OM_DETERMINE_RESP_PGRP
    The purchaing groups are responsible for product catrgories (material group) and not material numbers. If you use "describe requirement" to create a shopping cart, the purchasing group will default from this responsibilty of product categorty and not material number.
    Also the purchasing group can default on other criterias like the organizational responsibility and so on....
    Inorder to determine the reponsible purchase organization for creating shopping carts for all product categories, this task can be accomplished by implemeting the badi BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI. here you have to write some logic to change the purchasing organization based on product category. In the purchasing cycle Purchase Organization is not responsible to procure the product, Purchase Group is responsible for the same. In the Organization structure after defining Purchasing organization, you might have define Purchase Group also in the purcase group RESPONSIBLE TAB you have to define the PRODUCT CATAGORY to be procure by this Purchase group.
    Do let me know.

  • How I restrict Scheduling agreement type for specific Purchase organization.

    Hello Experts,
    I have created Scheduling agreement type (ZLT). I want to restrict this agreement type for specific purchasing organization.
    I have search many threads but I didn't get solution.
    Is it possible through Configuration or user exit.
    Kindly give me solution in details.
    Thanks,

    hi,
    I don't think that there is standard configuration to restrict Purchasing document type for purchasing group. you can restrict this trough user authorization or you can make user exit development.
