Significance of account assigned purchase order

Dear Gurus,
I would like to know the significance of account assigned purchase order in detail. Also kindly explain the difference between account assigned po and standard po.Thank you.

Hi,
Normally we will use account assigned PO's for Procuring Non-stock & Non-valuated materials.
For ex: consumable materials such as stationary items, spares etc.. we wont take into stock rather we will directly issue to the cost centers since these are low value items.
There are different kind of account assignments such as Consumables (K-Cost Center), Assets - A, Order - F(internal Order) etc.
By using above account assignments value of the materials will be directly posted to the respective G/L in the account assignment.
Whereas Standard PO's are one created for materials which we will take into stock & valuation will be done @ plant level
Thanks & Regards,

Inventory receipt against account assigned Purchase order

Hi,
When we do the MIGO-GR against a normal purchase order, we debit the inventory and credit the GR/IR clearing account. I would like to know whether we can post the same entry while doing the MIGO-GR against an account assigned purchase order.
If there is any work around please let me know.
appreciate any inputs on this.

Hi Kishore Kumar
When you have an account assigned PO, the GR entry cannot be
Inventory A/C Dr and GR/IR A/c Cr
It can be either debit to Consumption Account or any exps A\c and credit
to GR/IR

GTS 7.2 - Error with account assigned purchase order without material

All,
I am creating an account assigned purchase order without any material master in the feeder system (ECC 5.0) and it a standard SAP functionality.
I am getting the following GTS related pop up message and documents are posted to technically incomplete documents in GTS 7.2.
"Legal Control: Custs Prod. Mast. Required
Material "
Any ideas on how get rid of this error message
Edited by: James Puzon on Oct 3, 2008 9:32 PM

James,
Even though material numbers are not mandatory on POs in the feeder system (ie in ECC) they ARE mandatory in SAP-GTS.
This means that every line item (PO, SO, delivery) that is sent to GTS for compliance screening or Customs processing MUST have a material number in the feeder system. You have a couple of options to resolve this:
1. Always use a material number on all transactions that you enter in your feeder system if they are exports or imports (ie relevant for GTS). You can create service materials or "dummy" materials in ECC for items such as user manuals, warranties or installation services that are part of a particular shipment.
2. You can add logic in the interface for GTS to always transfer a particular material number to GTS if the material number is blank on the line item of the feeder system document. Ideally you would want to link this custom logic to a custom maintenance table in ECC so that you can easily change the material number that is sent to GTS without having to change the code.
3. Override the error message by changing the message type to a warning or informational message (not recommended because this would require a small code modification because I don't think the message type is configurable for this error). Even if you did make this code change you would likely run into more issues in GTS because license determination and other GTS services need a material number to function properly.
Hope this helps.

Acct determination for Account-assigned purchase order with keys not define

Hi,
I'm trying to post an IDOC of type BBPIV through XI to an R/3 system.
The posted idoc in R/3 is in status 51 (Application document not posted) with the error message "Acct determination for Account-assigned purchase order with keys not defined in chart of acts WP2P"
As per my understanding this is something related to FI.
Long text of the error is "The system cannot generate an automatic posting because there is no account determination defined for Account-assigned purchase order with keys in chart of accounts WP2P.
Correct the account determination for Account-assigned purchase order"
Please help me how to solve this.
Regards,
Rashmi

Hiya,
This looks like its a MM posting / transaction.
You need to go to OBYC and maintain the account assignment. If you provide the business scenario (GR into Stock, Subcontracting, etc.) for the process, I may be able to help.
VKOA is for SD account assignment and I don't believe you can use that here.
Cheers.

Account-assigned purchase order KBS is not activated

Hi Friends,
please expalin me maintain FI configuration; automatic postings procedures Account-assigned purchase order KBS transction account detemination is not activated.
Thanks
E.vasu

Hi,
KBS only define posting key (to which account the postings to happaen).In any account assign purchase order, system prompted to enter GL account (and CO object), which defined the account posting. Ex: Check in OMJJ - For mvt type 101 - update control - GR for acct. assgt. (consumption indicator V with quantity and value updation) - system defines postings as KBS and WRX, KBS refers to the consumption GL account.
KBS key doesnt require any additional settings in OBYC. It only looks for account specification in PO (say K /C/P) and GL account and can be assigned in OKB9 T.code.When we do GR for PO with account assign {KBS (consumption)}, it will debit the given GL account (assigned in OKB9 t.code) and credit GR/IR account (which define in OBYC).

Goods Receipt for Account-assigned Purchase Orders

Hello,
We want to make Goods Receipt for Account-assigned Purchase Orders. When we try, SAP gives the error 'Account determination for entry PCOA KBS 0001 not possible'. According to SAP online help, account assignment is adopted from the purchase orders for the transaction/event 'KBS' and we cannot assign transaction key 'KBS' to an account using transaction OBYC. How do you make it work? Any solution pointers will be appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks,

Multiple G/Ls for account assigned Purchase orders

Hi all,
We are having a service order dependent PO wherein the account assignment category is service order and is automatically generated..
Now when we are going GR(MIGO), system is posting to only one G/L which is linked to the service order. I have created one more condition in the PO (handling charges) and it should go to a different G/L. How do I configure this. Please treat this as most urgent.
Whatever is configured in automatic posting (OBYC, OMWB ) etc. is not applicable for account assigned PO. What to do?
Thanx in advance,
Vijaya

Account assignment - purchase orders

Hi,
What could be the circumstances under which purchase orders are assigned to internal orders and profit centers? could anyone give example scenarios for these.
Thanks and regards
Aparna

Hi
Take a example of the project, the various operational structures -- WBS element, network header and network -- are assigned separately to profit centers.The assignment is not therefore performed in the project definition, but in the various assignable structures: work breakdown structure element (WBS element), network header and network activity.
By assigning project structures to a profit center, you can observe all costs and revenues posted to the structures in the corresponding profit centers.
Assignment also serves to transfer the work in progress found for the projects to Profit Center Accounting.
Internal orders can be used
.Monitoring the costs of short-term jobs
.Monitoring the costs and revenues of a specific service
.Ongoing cost control
Orders used only for monitoring objects in Cost Accounting (such as, advertising or trade fair orders\
Productive orders that are value-added, that is, orders that can be capitalized (such as in-house construction of an assembly line).

GL account in Purchase order with account assignmt cat F

Hi,
I am creating a PO with account asignment category F (Internal Order) and entered the Internal Order in account assignemnt category.
but at that time, system is asking for currecny.
We dont want to enter the GL manually so can anyone help me from where this GL will be defaulted.
Thanks,
Sudha

Hi Sudha,
Usually PO of the nature F(internal Order) & K(cost center) are meant to book for services or items/material for which master data doen't exist & they are directly charged to expense. So at the time of creating PO, details of GL, cost center/internal order are entered manually in usual scenario.
However, if you still want to expore the automatic assignment then you can check in Tcode OBYC, transaction type "Account-assigned purchase order - KBS". You have to activate the same & then maintain.

Hi Kirti,
yes, if you create the PO using transaction ME21N, or ME21, then you should be able to change it. Unless the PO has already been closed, or deleted, or the goods received has been carried out for the PO. Then you cannot change it.
You can check the PO status, if the gr has been carried out, there should be a PO history tab in the item level.
If the PO is closed, or deleted, there should be a trash bin icon next to the item in the overview.
If the PO is created with reference to order (F), then in account assignment tab, there should be an order number. In this case, then you need to trace back to the RF, delete it, then change the data in the order, create another RF, then you account assignment in PO will be corrected.
Hope this helps.

How account assignment category determains G/L account in purchase order

Expert,
when i place an order with account assignment category for example F, a label named "account assingment" will appears with default G/L account in item detail area. what i wonder is how account assignment category determains it and where to configure?
best regards,
David

Hi ,
While doing PO for account assignment,system first checks account modification given for item category.
You can see this account modification in the given path:-
SPRO-MM-Purchasing-account assignment-Maintain account assgt categories.
In this see in "Detailed information" and"Account Modification".
Then system checks in OBYC for this account modification.Like:-
VBR for cost center and network.Against this acct modification system picks G/L acct assigned to this in OBYC.
Hope this will clears you,

G/L Account in Purchase Order

Hello,
when creating a new position in a purchase order with account assignment category K "Cost Center", the G/L Account No. is always filled with a default account.
Where and how can I define, what account is used as default GL Account?
Thanx in advance.

Hi Markus,
It is defined under controlling -- cost center accounting -- actual postings -- derivations/substitution. For each cost center we can assign a G/L account. Whenever you enter cost center in the PO, then automatically system will pick up the G/L assigned to that cost center.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Hi Antonio,
Standard PO layout does not support your requirement i think, but you can do that with a BADI.
Check OLME - Purchasing - Business Add-Ins for Purchasing - BAdI: Customer's Own Screens in Enjoy Purchase Order .
Must take the help of Abaper to do this, hope he can guide you in better way.

Changed G/L Account in Purchase Order

Hi folks,
Why is it, that I can change the G/L Account in my purchase order AFTER I have booked a goods or invoice receipt?
Can I prevent that from happening? I don't want to have the g/l account changed after I already have booked an goods/invoice receipt.
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
You can make it as a display field by selecting the field selections at the transactional level under the Materials Management > Purchasing > Define Field selection for document types.( Make it as display for ME22N and ME23N )
