Send PO to Vendor by EDI

Dear All,
We have to implement a scenario wherein we can send PO to Vendor by EDI.
What are the system prerequisites for this at our end & vendor end?Does the vendor require SAP for this?
Also what are configurations to be done & what are the transactional steps to be followed to implement this scenarion successfully.
Regards,
Nandan.

Hello,
This thread I found on google, herewith I am pasting for you.
You can send purchase order via e-mail in SAP system, there are some configurations and pre-requisites to do as follow:
1. You must maintain an e-mail address in the address in the vendor master.
2. The same applies to your own user master. You also have to specify an e-mail address there in order to identify the sender.
Note that it is not possible to change the e-mail address of the vendor via the SAP purchase order transaction (ME21N, ME22N, and so on). The system only uses the e-mail address of the vendor that is maintained in the vendor master!
3. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail. You can find the definition of the communication strategy in the Customizing via the following path: (SPRO -> IMG -> SAP Web Application Server -> Basic Services -> Message Control -> Define Communication Strategy). As a default, communication strategy CS01 is delivered. This already contains the necessary entry for the external communication. Bear in mind that without a suitable communication strategy it is not possible to communicate with a partner via Medium 5 (external sending).
4. Use the standard SAP environment (program 'SAPFM06P', FORM routine 'ENTRY_NEU' and form 'MEDRUCK') as the processing routines.
5. In the condition records for the output type (for example, Transaction MN04), use medium '5' (External send).
6. You can use Transaction SCOT to trigger the output manually. The prerequisite for a correct sending is that the node is set correctly. This is not described here, but it must have already been carried out.
7. To be able to display, for example, the e-mail in Outlook, enter PDF as the format in the node.
For more details, check out the OSS note :191470

  • Sending PO to vendor without EDI

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to send PO details to Vendor as a flat file or XML file (Any format other than IDOC and PDF) without using EDI. The reason is these are small level vendors and they don't have EDI set up and they want to receive PO in a user friendly format from which they can simply copy, paste the data or upload directly into their system. I have come up with the following options according to my knowledge.
    Trigger options:
    1.       Instant trigger using output control - Creating a new output type and assigning a custom program to the processing routine, which will be used to create a file.
    2.       Overnight Job - Collective - Program which can be scheduled in background and check for the POs created on a given day and extract all of them in a single file and send to vendor in one go.
    Formatting options:
    1.       Flat file (Word document, Excel or Text pad)
    2.       XML
    Sending options:
    1.       FTP
    2.       EMAIL
    3.       Middle ware (Webmethod) - Again 2 options in this, one placing the flat file in SAP application directory and Middleware application picking up the file and sending to Vendor. Option 2 is sending an IDOC to middleware and middleware converting the IDOC to XML format and dispatching to vendor.
    Please let me know which will be the most suitable option for the given scenario. Also let me know your views on the options whether these are workable and the difficulties in achieving them technically.
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions...

    Hi,
    There are some points needs to considered while designing the system:
    1) Volume of POs that needs to be sent to vendor.
    2) Frequency of the transmission.
    3) How do you want to handle the changes done to POs(I am sure there will be changes to PO).
    4) Future expansion to other vendors.
    As you mentioned option of overnight job will be easier. You can capture the POs created in to a z-table via
    user exit and write a program which runs daily pulls the POs in the z-table. Then you can FTP the file to vendor.
    Hope this helps.

  • New business scenario for reapir from customer and sending them to vendor.

    Hello team,
                          We have a scenario where we need to configure in the system -
    We  recieve a material from my customer for repair.We need to send this to my vendor who will repair  it and send them back to Us. On this we  recieve revenue from the customer and pay i pay half amount my vendor for the service.
    We are following above scenario in SAP as
    In the first step
    The production team create a serviece order in IW31 for the material that need to send to the vendor, which was recieved from the customer. When service order is created in the back end a Purchase requisition is created.
    In next step we  created a  PO w.r.f to the above PR and  we need to send this  to vendor on subcontracting so that we can track the material from him after the repair.
    The problem is --- When PR is created automatically during serviece order creation (iw31) we are unable to create Po with Item category L (subcontracting) because PR is not created with L.We are even unable to change L in  PR since it is created automatically at the background.We ried to change the field at document type in spro. But no luck.
    Pls let us know is there any other business process where we can handle this situation or any technical help to change the PR.

  • When I send PO to vendor, Attachements also to be sent along with that mail

    Hi Guys,
    Right now, when I release a PO or issue 'mail output' in message types and save it, it sends PO priview to vendor thru email.
    I think its happening with config part which is done in NACE (custom message types...driver program...form routine).
    Now the requirement is when PO sends to vendor, the documents which are attached to PO item also to be sent as attchments with that mail.
    I have logic with me to get the documents of PO and to send them to vendor thru a seperate mail. But per requiremnt, it should happen only at the time of PO release.
    Can somebody guide me how & where to place my logic in order to work it as mentioned above?
    Points awaiting...

    Hi,
    If the email should be sent to vendor only when the PO is released, the simplest way to accomplish this would be using a simple workflow which sends an e-mail to vendor with the PO attachment for the event 'released' of the business object BUS2012.
    Hope this helps.

    Dear,
    This scenario you can handle by Subcontracting process.....
    Create Subcontracting PO in Tcode ME21N with Item category as "L".
    Enter material in BOM as same as your main material....
    Now transfer stock to Subcontracting  vendor in MB1B Tcode , use MVT 541...
    Now go to MMBE , see you will see the stock provided to Subcontracting  vendor in seperate line.
    Now do the GRN in tcode MIGO wrt PO with MVT 101.

    It would be much appreciated if someone can provide the configuration procedure, thanks so much in advance.
    Cheers & Best Regards
    Ray

    Hi Sama,
    Thanks for your post, here I just share some of my idea.
    The following step is to configure the payment advice.
    In OBVU (payment methods in cpy code) I entered my payment advice form
    In OBVU (payment methods in cpy code)  set  "Always pyt advice"
    In OBVCU (payment method by country)  leave the payment medium program (RFFOD__T)
    For the email sending program, should develp some customized program to realize that, Thanks.
    Cheers & Best Regards

  • Possible ways to send po to vendors

    Hi Experts,
        I have created a purchase order. I would like to send it to vendors now. In which way i can send it? What are the possible ways to send purchase order to vendors ? and what are the configurations we need to send in that way ?
    kindly explain me clearly please.
    Regards,
    Prasath

    hi,
    You can send in many ways ie. via email, fax etc....check the settings at MN04/MN05 to make changes/MN06 to view...
    By this settings only, when you do output, system will show defaults from here only...
    Other settings you can check at NACE...Specially the output type settings...
    EXAMPLE: TO MAIL THE PO...
    Goto NACE .
    u2022 Select EF and click on OUTPUT TYPES.
    u2022 Then select Output Type NEU and click on processing routines .
    u2022 In that you have to add a new entry - medium 5 .
    u2022 Then you need to assign a program, form routine and form.
    u2022 You can use the standard program i.e. SAPFM06P, FORM routine is always ENTRY_NEU and standard MEDRUCK.
    u2022 Then in PARTNER FUNCTION you need to add a new entry : medium - 5 and function - VN .
    u2022 For subject of the mail goto Mail Title and Texts. In title give PO No. &EKKO-EBELN& .
    u2022 Under General data -> Replacement of text symbols give programm as SAPMM06E and Form Routine as TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE .
    u2022 Now the subject will be PO No. 1800004202.
    u2022 You need to maintain your email id in tcode SU01 and also the vendor's email id.
    u2022 Now while creating a new purchase order , change the medium to External Send .
    u2022 Then goto Communication Method and select CS01 . ALSO make sure that the Cover Page Text has value PO No. &EKKO-EBELN& .
    u2022 Goto tcode ME9F .
    u2022 Execute.
    u2022 Select the checkbox and click on Output Message.
    u2022 You will get a message MAII 00000000000001 generated.

    Hi Sagar
    For the Confirmation you need to do the customizing for confirmation control, like what would you like to do after the confirmation. Confirmation is an inbound process.
    For Invoice you need to complete the customizing under LIV in SPRO- for Invoices received via EDI.
    Please go throught the help link for further details.
