SALES ORDER AND CUSTOMER INDEPENDENT REQUIREMENT

What is the difference between sales order and customer independent requirement?
Where these are used?

Hi Sachin,
If you get an order from your customer you create a sales order in your system. Refering to this SO you can create (e.g.) delivery document and issue your goods from your stock.
In case of PIR (planned independent requirements) you don't know who your customer is. You can use these requirements e.g. for forecasts, MTS environment.
In MTO environment SO will generate PrdOrd, and after the confirmation your goods will get to SO-special stocks from where you can ship them out. You won't produce in this environment independently from SO.
In MTS environmnet you can use both SO and PIR. E.g. in case of planning startegy 11 MRP doesn't calculate with your SO, only PIRs are considered. This strategy is very simple: you input your production plan as PIRs. These PIRs will generate PldOrd, then production orders will be issued and after confirmation your PIRs will disappear. It doesn't matter how many SOs you have, it doen't matter how high your stock levels are...MRP displays them only for information purpose.
In strategy 40 (MTS) both PIRs and SOs (and stock levels) are considered, and (one) purpose of PIRs is to level your production (you will produce even thiough your slaes figure are low > later you can fulfill high demands from stock and you won't have to increase your production quantities). SOs will consume PIRs based on the rules you define.

  • MRP Generated production orders greys out Sales Order and Customer fields

    Hi there,
    The MRP generated production orders greys out the Sales Order and Customer fields for some reasons. These fields are really important as they link the production order to the sales order and the customer's purchase order. Could the SAP team please fix this or advise alternative way of getting the sales order and customer info on production order? Thanks.

    Hello
    MRP only poulated this fields in case the material master has been set up with a strategy group hich is make to order (normally 20). Otherwise MRP summarizes all the requirements from different Customer orders and creates a production order

  • MRP - Sales order and customer fields grey-out

    Hi there,
    The Sales order and customer fields are grey-out for all MRP generated production orders. Can the SAP programmers please get this fixed? It should either read in the sales order number and the customer number or allow user to type in the sales order, just like the manually created production order.
    cheers

    Hello Gordon,
    If production is make-to-order rather than make-to-stock, the MRP should read in the sales order number and the customer, since it is specific to the sales order. Even for make-to-stock production, where it cannot read in the specific sales order number, it should at least not grey out the field, don't you think so? By greying out the field, users are not allowed to type in the sales order number even when the production order directly relates to a particular sales order. As such, we are not able to link it back to the sales order where other info such as customer's purchase order, etc... can be found.
    Could you please advise alternative way of linking MRP generated production orders to the sales orders? thanks

  • Table For Open Sales Order And Customer Invoices

    Dear Gurus,
    Are there any table to know open Sales orders and pending invoices for Customers?
    Wishes,
    Abhishek

    Hi,
    Go to T code VA05 and select open sales order radio button. Put other input parameters like date range or sold to . Execute you shal get list of all open sales order.
    For pending invoices go to T code VL04 and you get list of all billing not yet created even though GI is done.
    These are standard SAP functionality and can be used rather than looking in a table level.

  • Purchase order to create sales order and delivery

    Hello all,
    I am planning to create sales order and since i require customer Purchase order to create sales order, i am also planning to create purchase order.
    My question is who should i mention as vendor or who would be the vendor when i create a purchase order that would be used to create sales order.
    should it be the customer who orders the material or should it be the plant from which the material is going to be supplied.
    and also in the line item for the field "plant", should i enter the supplying plant or should i enter the ship to plant.
    Thanks,
    Maxx

    The moment you mention 'Vendor', the SAP synonym for it is 'Supplier' hence it would be the supplier (and not customer), that is the plant from which the marerial is supplied. Hence your vendor in customer PO will be the supplying plant.
    The 'Plant' in the line item in case of PO will be the receiving plant (the customer's Plant).
    I hope this answers your doubt.

  • Customer Master Definable Attributes to Sales Order and Pricing

    Hello,
    I have a requirement to set a customer master flag using freely definable attributes.  I am planning to use KNA1-KATR10 from the GENERAL Customer Master data.  We do not want the flag to be sales area specific.  The flag will be on the ship to customer.   
    I need to determine how to copy this flag into the sales order and then also to ensure that this field is available for evaluation in a pricing requirement routine. 
    How do i accomplish this?  An alternative would be to use the Customer Grp fields , KNVV-KVGR1 but i am guessing the process would be similar. 
    Best Regards

    If you want to save Katr10 to the order, you will have to
    1. Append new fiield to VBAK within an append structure like zzvbak.
    2. Retrieve Katr10 and move to VBAK in MV45afzz form userexit_move_field_to_vbak.
    3. Append new field Katr10 to pricing communication structure komk in include komkaz.
    4. If you retained Katr10 as field name then you are done since there is a move corresponding from vbak to komk, if not you need to move this to komk in MV45afzz form userexit_pricing_prepare_tkomk.
    The field will now be populated and available in your pricing requirement routine. Hope this helps.

  • Text copy from customer master to Sales order and invoice

    Dear friends,
    when i maintain the text in the customer master ther needs to copy to sales order and from sales order to invoice.
    Can you please guide me how to do this config
    Thanks
    Raju.

    Dear Raju,
    First you need to do the Text determination for all areas(i.e Customer Sales and distribution,Sales order header,delivery header and billing header) through VOTXN transaction.
    -->Create the Customer text ID under Object KNVV
    Maintain the text for Text ID in the customer master >sales area data>Extras-> Text
    To copy the customer text to the sales order you need to keep KNVV table as Text object in the sales order text access sequence for the text ID.
    If you want to copy the sales order header text to the invoice header first you need to copy the sales order header text to the delivery header from delivery you can copy to invoice.
    When you want to copy the Text from Sales order to delivery the Access sequence will place a role
    If you want to copy the sales order text to the delivery document The Text Object should be VBBK in the delivery Header Text determination access sequence for that Text ID
    Again you can copy the text from delivery to Billing document through checking the Delivery Text field in the billing document detail screen (Top most bottom of the screen).
    Go to VOFA transaction select your billing document type then go in to the details here you can find the Delivery Text field you just check that check box.
    Now system will copy the sales order header text to the delivery header then it will copy to the invoice header.
    I hope this will help you,
    Regards,
    Murali.

  • Sales order and delivery requirement

    Hi,
    I have never worked real time on TOR and availibility check. I need help on clarification on the concept.
    1) The sales order transfers the requirement to MRP. So in the sap system there is a standard  requirement type/class 41 for the same. I need to know why there is a requirement type/class for sales order related delivery (011- delivery req type/class) ?
    In sales order related delivery, only availibility check is controlled(thru delivery item category) since the requirements are already transferred from sales order. so why the 011 delivery requirement ?
    2)The requirement type is determined through sales order item categoryMRP type.for the same combination of item categorymrp type, do one has to assign both the sales order and delivery requirment. I.e. suppose sales item category is ZTOR and mrp type is PD. so do one has to necessarity configure the follwoing
    ZTOR+PD=041(SALES ORDER REQ TYP) and 041 assigned to 041 req class
    ZTOR+PD=011 (DELIVERY REQ TYPE) and 011 assigned to 011 req class

  • Sales office authorization check in  customer master,Sale order and billing

    Hello Experts
    We need to restrict authorization for customer master, sale order and billing based on sales office.
    Can somebody guide me how to activate this ?  Has anyone of you have successfully done that?
    Regards
    kumarlib

    Hello Kumar,
    User authorization is within Basis expertise, but if you want to get some feel for what authorization objects are take a look at trans SUIM.  But basically how it works is for a given transaction the level of check is specified -- in this case Sales Office.  Based on values stored in that field the user is allowed or not allowed transaction access. 
    So you determine whatever the needed matrix is for authorization restriction (i.e. user A can access Sales Office xxx, user B can access Sales Office yyy & so on).  Also give Basis the transaction codes to restrict, along w/the technical table/field for each (like from customer master - KNVV-VKBUR, from sales doc level VBAK-VKBUR). Basis sets up the authorization object w/assignments to the users accordingly.
    This is standard SAP & your Basis support should be familiar with it.  Good luck.

  • How to assign version in sales order and transfer to PP module

    Hi all
    Users say that customer will require to produce/deliver old goods (we active revision level. The newest material version is D. But customer want version B). How to assign version in sales order and let PP user know the version customer want (MRP run and production order must use version B's BOM)?
    Regards,
    Rita

    Hi,
    i have a query if you have implimented ECM this will serve the purpose but it also depends on how good the planning is, in ur client site ( out of SAP ) where planner will plan according to the customer requirement as to which version to be kept active for a date range.The ECO analysts(functional) or consultants will make the ECO changes for those dates.
    In general for those type of customers (who needs old version) a different SO created under different document type which will create a production orders with specific order type depending on the assignment of requirement type and requirement class.
    those specific production ordertypes can be inturn assigned to either different plant where your old version BOM's will be active.
    You need to look into the custom settings in SAP to design the larchitecture to allign with other requirements.What i explained u is common methodology used.
    Hope this is clear..

  • Creation of u201CHeader Textu201D in sales Order and Invoice

    Dear friends,
            Can any one guide me the complete configuration settings that are required for creation of u201CHeader Textu201D in sales Order and Invoice. Please help me to overcome this issue.
    Regards,
    Bhanu.

    Hello Bhanu...
    Hope you are aware of the configurations you need to maintain for the Text determination.Anyway, herewith are the steps that may help you to accomplish your requirement.
    Text Determination procedure for sales document header:
    Text can be determined at sales document header level or it can be imported from customer master. The process is...
    Define Text types:Path: Imgsales and distributionbasic functionstext controldefine text types
    Select sales document header. Click on text types go to new entries and define text types. For Eg:Z1
    Define Access sequence:
    Select sales document header
    Click on change icon
    Click on access sequence control button under dialog structure
    Go to new entries and define access sequence number with description.Ex: 55
    Save it and exit
    Define text determination procedure:
    Go to new entries
    Define text determination procedure.Ex: ZX save it and exit
    Assign text id's to text determination procedure:
    Select your text determination procedure(ZX)
    click on text id's in text procedure control button under dialog structure
    go to new entries and maintain entries. Text id:assign text id (Z1) that we defined in the previous step
    Specify sequence No-10
    Check Reference: this indicator specify that the text is reference or copies from preceding object
    Text in obligatory: text will be displayed during copying. the value of this field specifies whether text is obligatory or not and if it is obligatory the how it is to be displayed
    Apart from this... you also have to maintain the text in the Customer master as mentioned in the previous mail..
    For this you have to maintain the customer text.Do the following steps.
    1. Go to Customer master, Choose from the Menu Extras --> Text and mention the text
    2. Then in a sales order automatically wehn you are entering that sold to party..the header message will be appearing..
    In a nutshell i would request you to check weather you have maintained the Sales-Customer text KNVV and also that you have maintained all the required customizing settings for the text procedure, access sequence etc were completed....?
    Also make sure that the text type is also inclueded in the text determination procedure of the sales document header...
    Note: If all the settings of text determination exists and still if the text is not appearing then In sales document Header Text procedure, select sales header procedure, then select Texts in procedure. Check for the Header note, No. box is checked. This check mark ensures text is to be displayed when it is copied..
    Its should be working if all the requried setting are made....
    Reward if this helps..
    Thanks,
    Safeer Rahman
