Purchasing Info record without material

Hi All,
How to create purchasing info record without material by Material group.
What is the t.code used .Is there any config
G.Ganesh Kumar

you can create by using the same tcode ME11 without mentioning the material number and after entering the relevant data in the screen pleasepress enter and in the next screen enter the materail group.
Do always mention the order unit as for the material group it is very necessary.
The order unit and material group are used as a checking criteria.
When you create Free Text Preq SYSTEM will suggest automatically the info record as a source of supply for the particular material group but it will not suggest automatically for the  free text PO.
There you have to take the  searchhelp for material groups in the relevant field in the item overview screen where material group and order unit are taken into account for the checking criteria.

  • Info record without material (EINA-MATKL). Tax code

    Good morning
    We need to be able to automatically define in the Purchase Order the tax codes when we are purchasing a free text item (without material master record).
    We are trying to do it by means of the info record for the vendor and material group, without the material. However the system is not able to determine this value.
    Please if you can help us to determine how we can automatically determine this tax code in a purchase order based on the material group, we would appreciate it.
    Thank you in advance and best regards,

    Hi Steve
    Have a query here regarding Info record without material number (using material group).
    1) I understand we can create info record wihtout material number using material group . but doest it mean all the material comes under that material group and having same vendor will use single info record?
    2) What is Purpose of Sort Key while creating such a info record.
    3) As per my understanding for this type of info record system never update the price automatically using info record in fact for such PO we need to enter the info record number manually.? am i right? if yes then what is the purpose of creating a info record with material group if anyways we need to enter the info record manually.
    4) i am creating a PO but even after entering the info record number (which i have created for the ,material group and vendor combination) system is asking me to enter the price against PB00.

  • Is it possible to create info record without material number

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to create infor record without material master and what is the importance of the field Info update in PO.
    Thank you for the help.

    Hi,
    1.Yes you can create Info record without material no. but you have create it for material group.Go to ME11 and only enter vendor ,Purchasing organization , and Plant don't enter material no.. and again enter maitain material gruop and require data for Material group.
    2.Info Update indicator -
    Info record update
        Determines whether the prices and conditions of this purchase order ite
        are suggested in future PO items.
    Use
        Selecting InfoUpdate causes one of the following situations to occur:
            -   If just one info record (with or without plant) exists, it is
                updated.
            -   If no info record exists and "plant condition requirement" was
                specified in Customizing, an info record with plant is created.
                Otherwise, an info record without plant is created.
            -   If two info records exist (that is, one info record with plant
                and one without plant) the info record with plant is updated.

  • 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,

  • Purchasing Info Records for Material-qty

    I have material no. base unit of measure at MM is in  PC with std price in RMB,
    Order unit at info record in CAR with gross price in USD.
    Question:
    When I did purchasing price simulation for 1 PC the calculated value is same with 2 PC
    When I did purchasing price simulation for 3 PC the calculated value is same with 4 PC
    why cost of 1pc is same as 2 pcs , 3 pc is same as 4pcs and so on? what is the root cause?
    anyone can help

    To explain:-
    When you at first execute 'Price Simulation', system will calculate for
    simulation quantity (based on standard quantity + base UoM).
    E.g. take 5 PC
    Info record price is 340 USD / CAR (which is 2000 PC for mat 1C11010937)Price of 0,17 USD is correctly calculated.
    Afterwards, when you execute the 2nd step 'Simulation', it will show net value of 1,02 USD
    This has following technical reason:
    During price simulation, quantity (simul-mglme) will be calculated in
    MENGE_UMRECHNEN_FLOAT to 0,003, this is already the rounding result
    and will be taken for price determination.
    5 / 2000 = 0,003 (-> should be 0,0025)
    0,003 multiplied by 340 USD will show the price of 1,02 USD.
    If you take 1 PC (as simulation quantity) the internal calculated
    quantity is 0,001, multiplied by 340 USD will show the price of 0,34 USD
    If you take 2 PC (as simulation quantity) the internal calculated
    quantity is still  0,001, multiplied by 340 USD will still show the price of 0,34 USD
    This behavior is directly related to large conversion factors and very
    low prices for 1 PC (price e.g. less than 0,5 USD / 1 PC)

  • 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).

  • SAP MM:Purchase info record

    Hi experts,
                      Can anyone tell me the complete process of purchase info record (ME11).Complete screen steps what are the tabs are there in ME11.I want screenshots of ME11
    Hope for good answer from experts
    Regards
    sandhya

    Hi Sandya,
    If you want to create it manually you can do so by using the SAP transaction code ME11. At the initials screen the following are the input values:
    Vendor Number
    Material Number
    Purchasing Organization
    Plant
    Info Category
    After key in these values at the initial screen you can maintain rest of the information related to material and vendor in the subsequent screen. These information can be group as follows:
    Purchasing Organization Data
    Conditions
    Texts
    As per the business requirement you can make some of the fields (information) as mandatory by customizing. You can also restrict the end user from modifying these information once saved in the system.
    In the standard SAP purchasing info record is maintained as a source of information for Purchasing.
    It contains some of the information from material master and some of the information related to its supplier/vendor.
    Hence Material and Vendor Master is pre-requisite for a purchasing info record. You can also maintain the
    purchasing information record without material master record if your material is for direct consumption.
    Here you can use material group instead of material master. You can have more than one purchasing information
    record for a single material if it is being supplied by more suppliers, one for each supplier. Information maintained
    in purchasing information records is used as default data in documents such as purchase orders.
    In standard SAP Info record stands for information record which contains concise information about a vendor and a material that Purchasing already procures from that vendor. An info record thus represents a material-vendor relationship. Following are some of the information maintained in Info record:
    Units of measure in which materials are ordered from the vendor
    The applicable reminder levels
    Prices and Conditions with validity period (Present and Future)
    Applicable Tax Code
    Planned Delivery Time
    Standard & Maximum Quantity
    Tolerance limits for over-deliveries and under-deliveries
    Number of Last Purchase Order or Quotation
    Text
    Vendor evaluation data
    An indicator for showing vendor as regular vendor for the material
    The vendor sub-range to which the material belongs
    The availability period during which the vendor can supply the material

  • Minimum price for purchase info record

    Hi
    For some supplier, we need to set up a minimum price in purchase info record condition as show in example.
    Price / pce : 50.00 CHF / 100 pce
    Minimum price : 200.00 CHF
    So price for PO should be for X quantity : Min(200, X * 50 / 100)
    Is it possible to do that? Our internal competence center says us that it's not possible, but i would like your opinion.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi,
    If you want to scale up your price as per quantity in PO, it can be done. for example for 60 quantity price is $100 and for 70 quantity it is $95.
    Go to Transaction M/06 and select the base condition PB00. Make sure the 'Group Condition' indicator and 'Rounding Difference Comparison' indicator should be activated and the 'Group Condition Routine' field should be entered with '1' (Overall Document).
    2) Maintain your purchasing info record for Material A where the Condition Group should be set (ABC, for instance). Select the base condition PB00 and then set up the scaled pricing value (Y, for instance).
    3) Maintain the PO for Material A . Upon completion of maintenance, click on 'Check' icon to activate the Pricing Determination. You will see that the pricing Y is applicable to Materials A.

  • Consignment purchase info record - no tax code found

    Dear all
    I have faced one problem regarding the consignment purchase info records' tax code. When I go to create the consignment pur info record we couldn't find any values existed in the field tax code. However, if I go to change another plant, the tax code information can be selected. (the plant - BP04  country HK is not worked, the plant BP06 country AU is fine). If we created the purchase info record without tax code, we would see a error when we are doing MRKO. Why ??? I have already double checked the configurations, it seems fine. Please see below. Could you help me to solve this ?? thanks  a lot.
    1. define procedure OBQ3
    Step 1,condition type BASB
    Step 2,condition type MWVS (input tax),from 1 to 1, account key VST.
    Step 3,condition type MWAS (output tax),from 1 to 1, account key MWS (out put tax)
    2. Assign country to calculation procedure in OBBG
    3. Define tax codes for sale and purchase in TC FTXP
    input tax indicates V
    output tax indicates A
    4.Assign tax code for non taxble transactional OBCL
    5.Define tax accounts OB40.

  • Purchase Info Record (time independent condition)

    Hi all,
    I am having a Purchaisng Info record for Material X, vendor A, Plant 1000, Pur Org: POR1
    last PO price history is Rs.10/-
    now requirement is:
    created a new Plant 2000, Pur Org:POR2,,
    want to create a manual purchasing info record for Material X, Vendor A, Plant 2000, Pur Org:POR2, wherein i want to insert price as Rs.10/- (time independent condition), so that while creating a new PO, it should capture this value Rs.10/-
    how this can be done?
    thanks & regards,
    urendra

    Hi,
    I think here you have two solutions here.
    1) Create a new inforecord with the new palnt and purchasig organisation
    Or
    Create a new purchase order with the new plant and purchase organisation first time you need enter the net price then save the purchase order
    After saving purchasr order system will create a new time independent info record for the combination of Material, Vendor, Plant, purchasing organisationa and infocategory.
    I hope this would resolve the problem. If it helps award me the points
    Cheers

  • Document type for Purchasing Info Records

    I want to know where do we define the document type( IL, IN ) for Purchasing Info Records in Customizing(SPRO).
    Are these standards or can we define new document types?

    Hi
    There are 4 categories of info records.
    Standard
    Subcontract
    Consignment
    Pipeline
    There are two types of Info records maintenance:
    1) Cross-plant (where you can maintain your info record at the purchasing organization level); or
    2) Plant specific (where the specific plant must be maintained).
    Besides, there are two document types of info records being <b>hardcoded</b> in SAP -
    1) Purchasing Info Record for stock materials (Document Type IL); and
    2) Purchasing Info Record for Material Group (Document Type IN).

  • Pricing not updated in Purchase Info Record using INFREC01. is it possible?

    Hi Gurus,
    I am using IDoc INFREC01 to create Purchase info record for material, but when I see in ME13 that PIR is created successfully but price is never updated, though I have populated field NETPR and EFFPR hence condition PB00 (basic pricing condition) not created.
    Is it possible to update only single pricing (basic price PB00) condition through INFREC01 ??? or should I use another BAPI or some standard report ...??.
    I am extending Pricing Conditions for Purchase inforec through seprate IDOC: COND_A01, but it could only do that if there is basic pricing condition i.e. PB00.
    Please advice.
    Thanks in advance.
    Robin

    HI,
    You can update pricing field for conditon type PB00, please use correct validity period.
    Even there are no basic Price condition PB00, you can add new condition types with existing types.
    Price vaue can depend on the pricing conditions that you have maintained.
    Thanks....

  • Purchasing info records for PO-items without material master

    Hi gurus,
    I would like to have the system automatically determine certain settings (e.g. reminder/urging data).
    For PO-items with material master there is no problem, because all information can be stored in the purchasing info record, and are automatically found when I enter the material number.
    For items without material number/master I tried to generate a info record for the material group. When I enter the no. of the info record, everything works fine. But the info record is not automatically found, if I only enter the material group no.
    Is there any way to make the system find the info record by itself?
    Thanks
    Alicia

    Thanks to both of you!
    Priyanka:
    How can you create a source list for a material group? I thought this was possible for materials only!?
    Of course, you cannot have more than one info record at a time for a material group. But one would be enough for me...
    Dhruba:
    Thanks for the advice, but I know how to manually select a info record. The point is, I'd like to have the system determine it according to the material group I enter.
    Any other ideas?

  • Purchasing info record for vendor's material number ONLY?

    Hello gurus,
    we have materials that must be ordered with refernce to a contract. We purchase these materials only from one vendor and exclusively using that contract (only one source of supply). We do need purchasing info records to store the vendor's material number.
    Now, the problem is that if we have one contract and a purchasing info record, the system interprets the PIR as a second dource of supply. So, when I create a new PO, the price is automatically taken from the PIR and not from the contract.
    Is it possible to create PIR's for the vendor's material number without creating a second soucre of supply?
    Thanks in advance
    Alicia
    PS: I do know that i can use order lists but that does not solve the problem when manually creating a new PO...

    why dont you maintain the vendors material number already in the contract item?
    why do you create an info record that has a different price than the contract?
