Q info record without revision level

Hi
I found out that if the materials is manage by revision level, if the q info record is not maintain by revision level, it will not take effect. This meaning, that the q info record now need to be maintain by revision level as well, additional work.
Anyone come across that it is possible not to maintain the revision level in q info record and it is still working even though materials is manage by revision level and PO is created with revision level.
care to share?

Dear Danny
Yes if the material is maintained with revision level , then quality info record has to be maintained accordingly
I think you can try with this BADI and create with one quality info record applicable for all the revision of the material
QB_Q_INFO_RECORD.
The four reference fields in the Q-info record - material, plant, revision level, and vendor - can be changed using this BADI.This enables a reduction in the number of Q-info records. A single Q-info record can refer to different combinations of the fields mentioned above

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,
Alejandra

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.

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 Plant

Hi,
I have got standard inforecord created without plant and with plant for a given material code and vendor code combination. I put tick mark in deletion indicator in condition tab for without plant as I want to use info record with plant only.
But since I put deletion indicator in condition tab, its net price and effective price became zero.
Now when I am trying to create PO, even though correct inforecord exists with required condition value with plant, system is finding inforecord without plant with zero effective price and giving error message "Maintain Pricing Condition In Info record".
Kindly suggest how I can remove info record without plant and generate PO with info record with plant.
Thanks & Regards
Ratna

Remove deletion flag in ME15,
Extend info record for vendor,material,purchase orgn,plant using ME11,press enter,maintain price in condition tab.

PO update to info record without FRB1 condition

Scenario:
There is an info record for a vendor/material combination that is purchase org only (not plant specific).
A PO is create. A price for the material is pulled into the PO along with a FRB1 value. Where is it getting this information. There isn't a value for the material or the FRB1 record in the info record. Where does it pull this value?
Thanks!

If not info record exist than it may pull from previous PO
check the following config
Go to OMFI tcode and check the price adoption tab
if the always copy field is checked means it is copying from previous PO
To avoid that
copy the existing defualt value to somthing else wihout defualt values key (only descrioption)
that means it will be the first in this table now
go the price adoption tab and select do not copy and save
now system will not copy

Automatic creation of purchase info record

Hi friends
I could not find check box in RFQ (ME41!N)or in Quotation (ME47N) for updating/automatic creation of purchase info record.
Thanks
Sunny

Hi,
you can maintain the info update for the required quotation through ME47.choose the required line item and click on the "item detail" icon and put the necessary value for info update:
1-     No update
2-A     Update with or without plant
3-B     Update with plant (if no plant ban)
4-C     Update without plant (if no plant requirement)
Indicator: Update Info Record
Determines whether:
The purchasing info record for this vendor and material is to refer to this PO item, and
The item is to be valid for the entire purchasing organization or just for the plant.
Use
The indicator determines which prices and conditions are suggested in future PO items.
Prices and conditions can apply to an entire purchasing organization or to a single plant within a purchasing organization.
For example, if you create a purchase order for a plant for which an info record has been defined at plant level, the purchase order is based on the conditions in the plant info record and not on the conditions that apply to the purchasing organization.
Procedure
Enter the relevant plant key:
A
Updating of the document number is effected at plant level as long as there is a purchasing info record at plant level. Otherwise the document number is updated at purchasing organization level.
B
Updating is effected at plant level if plant conditions are allowed for the plant.
C
Updating is effected without plant data if plant conditions are not necessary for the plant.
Dependencies
The level at which updating of the document number may be effected is defined for each plant.
Hope this will clarify your query.

Info record and pro

How does Info Record tie in the procurement cycle, or how does it integrates with the purchase cycle
Thanks
Ganga

Hi,
Purchasing Info Records serves as a source of information for Purchasing. The purchasing info record (also referred to in abbreviated form as the "info record") contains information on a specific material and a vendor supplying the material. For example, the vendor's current pricing is stored in the info record.
The info record allows buyers to quickly determine:
Which materials have been previously offered or supplied by a specific vendor
Which vendors have offered or supplied a specific material structure.
Content of an Info Record:
The info record contains:
Data such as prices and conditions that you can store for the relevant purchasing organization or plant.
The number of the last purchase order.
Tolerance limits for overdeliveries and underdeliveries.
The planned delivery time (lead time required by the vendor to deliver the material).
Vendor evaluation data.
An indicator showing whether the vendor counts as the 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.
The info record contains quotation and ordering data. The data in the info record (prices for example) is also used as default data for purchase orders.
For instance, you can store the current and future quotation conditions (discounts, fixed costs etc.) in the info record, in order to be able to copy them into Pos. You can also maintain the vendoru2019s conditions directly in the info record.
Organizational Levels:
An info record can apply to the following organizational levels:
Purchasing organization
Plant
Procurement Types in Info Records:
Standard
A standard info record contains information for standard purchase orders. The info records can be created for materials and services with and without master records.
Subcontracting
A subcontractor info record contains ordering information for subcontract orders. For example, if you subcontract the assembly of a component, the subcontractor info record would include the vendor's (subcontractoru2019s) price for assembling the component.
Pipeline
A pipeline info record contains information on a vendoru2019s commodity that is supplied through a pipeline or pipes (for example, oil or water) or by similar means (for example, electricity through the mains). The info record contains the vendoru2019s price for the consumption of such commodities by the buyer ("pipeline withdrawals"). You can store withdrawal/usage prices for different validity periods.
Consignment
A consignment info record contains information on a material that vendors keep available at their own cost on the ordereru2019s premises. The info record contains the vendoru2019s price for withdrawals by the orderer from consignment stock. As in the case of the pipeline info record, you can store prices for different validity periods.
Order Price History
The purchase order price history logs the various prices charged for a material by a vendor.
Texts in the Info Record
The info record contains the following text types:
Info record memo
An internal note or comment that is adopted in the PO item. The info record memo is not printed out.
PO text in info record
This text serves to describe the order item and corresponds to the PO text in the material master record. It is adopted in the PO item and included in the printout.
Short text
For material that has a material master record, the short text (short description) is adopted directly from the material master record in the PO or the outline purchase agreement.
PO Text in Info Record Versus PO Text in Material Master Record
For an info record linked to a material master record, you can specify for each purchasing organization whether:
Only the info record PO text is to be displayed and printed in purchasing documents (To do so, set the indicator No m. text in the purchasing organization data of the info record)
or
Both the info record PO text and the material master record PO text are to be displayed and printed in purchasing documents
Both texts are displayed and printed if the indicator No m. text is not set.
Reward if useful.

Info Record update indicator on PO

Hello All
The InfoUpdate check box on the Material Data tab of a PO, gets checked automatically. How do we control this? Is this driven by a vendor, material or plant or anything else. Do we set this up some where in customizing.
Also, if the infoupdate box is checked, does the info record gets updated with the new vendor material number?
Any help with this will ge greatly appreciated and rewarded
Thanks
Vijay

HI,
The values of the InfoUpdate indicator vary according to the type of purchasing document in question.
In quotations, contracts, scheduling agreements, and in the conventional purchase order (transactions ME21, ME22, and ME23), the InfoUpdate indicator can have one of four different values:
' ' The info record is not updated.
'A' If an info record exists at plant level, it is updated. Otherwise an info record at purchasing organization level is updated.
'B' If plant conditions are allowed for the plant, an info record at plant level is updated.
'C' If plant conditions are not necessary for the plant, an info record at purchasing organization level is updated.
In the Enjoy purchase order (SAP transactions ME21N, ME22N, and ME23N), the InfoUpdate indicator has only two possible values. Here it determines whether an info record is updated or newly created.
If the indicator is selected, the following cases are possible:
If just one info record (with or without a plant) exists, the record is updated.
If no info record exists and "Plant condition requirement" has been specified in Customizing, an info record with a plant is created. Otherwise an info record without a plant is created.
If two info records exist, one record with a plant and one without a plant, the info record with the plant is updated.
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran

Query of info record

hi experts
As I know, there is a type of info record without material master,just need to input the material group.
I create such info record under a vendor and a purchase organization.but when I create a po.input the
relevant vendor,purchase organization and material group. but system ask me to input the price,I think
since I had create the info record,the po can capture the price from info record automatically. but acctually seems it is not working,.can anyone give some suggestion? thank you

hi Mark,
When you create the plant dependent PIR doc, that means it can be used only for that particular plant only, but when you create the POrg dependent, then it can be used for all the plant attached to that Porg...
Now, when you reference the PIR document, check whether you are providing the Inforecord number at the item level(or item overview level) as a reference...after entering the number press enter and then check details for Price...
Also, please confirm that the puchase group and unit of measure is maintained same as PIR document or not??
Also please confirm you PIR formation procedure from the below link:
[PIR w/o Material master|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/75/ee107055c811d189900000e8322d00/frameset.htm]

Regarding the info record

HI All,
I have not maintained Info record for a material and vendor and plant combination.
        If one MM cycle till PO is completed with Tick mark of Info update indicator in Material data in item details purchase order.
            Weather the material info record is created automatically
     But in SAP it has given as
         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.
         Suggest me

Even If you have not maintained Info record for a material, vendor and plant combination.
And PO is Created with Tick mark in Info update indicator in Material data in item details purchase order.
The material info record is created automatically
This is the Case, If NO INFO RECORD EXISTS.
And Based on the Customizing, In SPRO>Matereials mangment>purchasing>conditions>define conditon control at plant level.
Case 1: if you select W/O Plant, then Info record is created with Purchasing organization,
case 2: with plant, then plant specific info record will be automatically created
Based on INFO UPDATE indicator.
