SRM7.0 Transfer Header/item level attachments

Hi
Can somebody confirm me whether the Header/item level attachment transfer is supported in SRM7.0( for ERP EHP4 to SRM7.0)
Is there any SAP note explanining about the issue.
Pls confirm.
Regards
Ckumar

Hi Masa
Thanks for your support before.
I have few more questions..can you please confirm.
Since Header level GOS attachment transfer is not possible without addon development effort, we need to confirm whether atleast item level attachment can be transferred from ERP to SRM7.0 in standard customizing.
I heard its not possible to transer item level also from ERP(PR) to SRM(SC) using DMS.
Can you please confirm if this possible or not.
does CPPR functionality have option to transer both Header level & item level transfer from ERP(PR) to SRM(SC).
any past experience says its possible>
pls share your experieince...
Regards
Ckumar

Exclude foreign data in delivery & billing at header & item level

Dear all,
I want to stop foreign data check from my export sales scenario in delivery or in billing document, I have not done any configuration for the same. Even by deselecting check in delivery or in billing at both level Header & Item level, my billing accounting document is not getting post due to foreign data incompletion. My requriement is system should not ask to maintian any foreign data to maintain in delivery & in billing document so that my billing doc will get posted directly to accounts even when I am selling goods to abroad.
How to solve this issue, can anybody suggest in this matter.
Thanks

Savi

If the shipping point country is different than ship-to party country, then foreign trade is activated. If you still want to switch off, then refer OSS 1459330 - Error Message: VF072 Foreign Trade Data Incomplete.

Item level attachments in confirmation sent from SUS in EBP-SUS scenario

Dear colleagues,
I am in SRM 5.0
In an EBP-SUS scenario, I have created a Confirmation for a Purchase Order with an attachment added at header level of confirmation as well as item level of confirmation and sent to EBP.
The XML that reaches EBP has both the attachments but effectively the confirmation that gets created in EBP has attachment only in header level and the item level attachment is missing.
Could any of you with your experience let me know whether it is a limitation or is it possible to send attachments in item level to EBP?
Many thanks.
Best regards,

vatsa,
if the xml message has both the attachments , then it is a problem.
please debug the inbound of xml , it is very easy to find out whether both the attachments are considered in the creation of the document.
use transaction sxi_support and the inbound xml for debugging.

Traffic lights both in header&item level in REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY

Hi all,
I am using 'REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY'. I need to display traffic lights both in header and item level. here is the piece of code I used.
DATA : e_alvly TYPE slis_layout_alv.
    e_alvly-expand_fieldname = 'LIGHT'.
    e_alvly-lights_fieldname = 'LIGHT'.
    e_alvly-lights_tabname   = 'TS_HEADER_DETAILS'.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
      i_callback_program = w_prog
      is_layout          = e_alvly
      it_fieldcat        = it_fieldcat
      it_events          = ts_events
      i_tabname_header   = c_ts_header_details
      i_tabname_item     = c_ts_item_details
      is_keyinfo         = key
    TABLES
      t_outtab_header    = ts_header_details
      t_outtab_item      = ts_item_details.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE 'Error in ALV ' TYPE 'I'.
ENDIF.
Using this I could get traffic lights only at header level. if I replace 'TS_HEADER_DETAILS' with 'TS_ITEM_DETAILS' , i can see lights only at item level.
Insummary I can get lights eithere in Header or item level, but I need at both the levels.
Please suggest some solution to overcome this problem..
Thanks in Advance,
Vishal..

H,
Have you tried this,
e_alvly-expand_fieldname = 'LIGHT'.
e_alvly-lights_fieldname = 'LIGHT'.
e_alvly-lights_tabname = 'TS_HEADER_DETAILS'.
append e_alvly-lights_tabname.
e_alvly-expand_fieldname = 'LIGHT'.
e_alvly-lights_fieldname = 'LIGHT'.
e_alvly-lights_tabname = 'TS_ITEM_DETAILS'.
append e_alvly-lights_tabname.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY'
EXPORTING
i_callback_program = w_prog
is_layout = e_alvly
it_fieldcat = it_fieldcat
it_events = ts_events
i_tabname_header = c_ts_header_details
i_tabname_item = c_ts_item_details
is_keyinfo = key
TABLES
t_outtab_header = ts_header_details
t_outtab_item = ts_item_details.
IF sy-subrc 0.

Sales order condition change for Header and Item level..

Hi Gurus,
My requirement is as below..
Business wants to create new sales order from reference.. While creating slaes order fron reference , need to populate header/Item level condition tab data from originally paid by the invoice for that refence sales order not from refence sales order condition price.
I would like to how to bring this one, any user exit or copy control and any VOFm routine need to populate this kind of requirement.
Any one have any idea please let me know.. It very urgent, give reward points for right solution..
thanks,

Hi,
Here are the answers to your question
> Is it possible to add/change condition types on the sales order (header and item level) for which invoice has been created already?
I mean is it possible to add some surcharge condition to already invoiced order and than as result debit memo?
The answer is No. You cannot add or change the condition once it is invoiced.
> And one more question : Are there some time restrictions when debit/credit memo can be created? (I believe not, but I would like to have this confirmed, as I am not SD expert.)
The answer is No again. There is no time restriction and you can create debit or credit memo immediately when the invoice is released to accounting.
Hope this helps
Thanks

How to copy header/item text from Quotation to sales order?

Dear All,
On ECC 6, I am trying to get text copied from the quotation to the sales order (when the order is created with reference to the quote).
As of now, the order creation is fine with all the right items & partners etc. in it, but the text is missing.
The same text IDs have been assigned to both documents (at header & item levels).
Is the text content supposed to be copied by standard SAP? Is there any customizing needed for this? Please guide me on how I can achieve this.
Please help.
Thanks
Best regards,

Hi Rohit,
Pls check this e.g.
Text Determination Procedure
You can define text for
Customer
Sales document
Delivery
Billing
1) Create new text types
(Menu Path: SPRO-IMG-Sales and distribution- Basic function-Text Control-Define text type). You can define new text type in this menu for your requirement for different objects (Customer, Sales document, Delivery and billing document). T-code: VOTXN
2) Assign the new text ID in the text determination procedure
(Menu Path: SPRO-IMG-Sales and distribution-Basic function- Text Control-Define text type). Click on change on application tool bar. Select text procedure created and double click on Text ID' s in text Procedure. Assign new text Id to Text determination procedure
3) Define and Assign an access sequence to the new text ID
(Menu Path: SPRO-IMG-Sales and distribution-Basic function-Text Control-Define access sequence for determining text).Access sequence can be defined only for sales document not for customer master. Select text procedure and double click on text id's in text procedure folder. Select text id and double click on access sequence and create new access sequence here.
4) Assign the Text determination procedure with the sales document type.
(Menu Path: SPRO-IMG-Sales and distribution-Basic function-Text Control-Define and assign text determination procedure) In this menu path you can assign text determination procedure to sales document type.

Sales BOM : Header item stock and cost

Hello gurus,
I'm very new for sales BOM and have one questions.
We have material A and B (purchased from vendor).
They will be assembled by 3PL company as C.
Then we will sell C to the our customer.
I want to set price/cost at the header item level.
because we will sell material B free of charge.
I've set C like below
1. Item category group. : ERLA
   Item category : TAQ
   Setting of A and B
    Item category group. : NORM
   Item category : TAE
2. Then make BOM in tcode CS01 with C
    Material : C
    Plant: XXXX
    BOM Usage :5
    subitem : A, B
    Item category : N(Non-stock item)
After then I tried to make a sales order
with material C.
I can get sub-items(A,B) successfully
however system said there is no atp stock for C.
How can I get stock of C from stock of A and B?
And How can I set the cost of C with value of A+B?
And How can I set the condition of C to calculate cost of C in header level?
or can I set like
price is determined in header level and cost is calculated in item level?
Or please recommend nicer solution.
Thank you very much.
J.K.

Hi Azam,
It seems to me that you want to use Delivery Group for Sales BOM where If Mat A = Mat B + Mat C and Mat B Availability date is 20/07/2014 (DD/MM/YYYY) and Mat C availability is 25/07/2014 then Main line item should be confirmed with 25/07/2014.
If any one sub Item is not available, then Any of the item from the Grouping should not be dispatched.
If this is the requirement then, In Item Category (VOV7) for main Item update Create Delivery Group field with X and your requirement will be fulfilled.
Do let us know the result after testing.

MJ.

Header/Item extractor data modelling question

Hi,
I have installed the Business Content for CRM Activities. In the Business Content they have a separate extractor and cube for header and item level.
However, for our reporting requirements we would like to use one cube. We don't consider a multicube as a valid solution since the item/header cubes have ofcourse not all fields in common what will lead to the famous not-assigned behaviour in Bex.
Therefore I'm trying to enrich each item line with all header fields. I don't want to write a user-exit to enhance the item extractor on datasource side since this will be a lot of work and also not sure this would be delta-compatible. I have bad experiences with this on a previous project.
So I would like to find a solution on BW (data modelling) side but at the moment I don't see any good alternatives. The only thing that I can think of is to build one ODS/master data object (transaction number) that contains all header information and to read this ODS/Master data object while loading the item lines from the ODS to the cube. This way I can copy all header fields to the item line. But this will force me to do FULL loads between the item ODS and the "global" cube and ofcourse I would like to avoid this. (if a header fields changes I want this to be changed in all item lines as well ofcourse)
Does anyone have better solutions ?
Thanks

What I finally did is the following :
1) Create a new cube with all characteristics and keyfigures from header/item level.
2) Load Header ODS to new cube
3) Load Item ODS to new cube but via a startroutine that enriches the item datasources with all header characteristics that are not yet available on item level.
4) Make a query and put constant selection on a restricted keyfigure that contains the following :
a) Product (item level) ==> CONSTANT SELECTION enabled
b) Nr. of activities (header level)
In Bex everything looks now fine with the nr. of activities header keyfigure, even when I do a filtering on material that still only exists on item level thanks to the constant selection but my result row is acting a little bit dissapointing. I hope that can be solved.
Let me give an example : (i'm even excluding the header line in this query)
1) all fine
   Transaction nr ; Nr. Of activities
   6000           ; 1
   ====================================
Resultrow           1
2) drilldown to material
   Transaction nr ; Material ; Nr of activities
   6000           ; 12D      ; 1
   6000           ; 13D      ; 1
=====================================================
Resultrow                      2
==> As you can see the resultrow changes to 2 after doing the drill-down.
Note that I am using "calculate result as summation". If I use "nothing defined" the result will be fine in this case but then it is not correct in the case where I do filterings on e.g. a material number. It will then show the number of activities for the WHOLE query.
Is there anything I can do to get the resultrow right in all circumstances using constant selection ?
Thanks

2) After Sales order replication from CRM to ECC i should be able to see that Attachment in ECC.
Please give your valuable inputs.
Thanks in Advance.

We have been trying to do this for about 6 months now. I am told that you can not replcate an attachment from CRM to ECC, the best you can do is send an email from CRM with the document attached.

Delivery address appearing at Item level and not at Header level in PO

Hello Experts,
We are facing an issue as described below:-
We are in SRM 7.0 using classic scenario.
After approval of multi line Shopping Cart in SRM ,PR's are getting
automatically created in backend R/3 system.After converting PR's into
POs in backend R/3,we are observing that the delivery address for these
PO'are getting printed at Item level and not at the Header Level
inspite of the delivery address being same for all the Item level.
As desired,the delivery address in the PO's should have the delivery
address at the header level if the the delivery address is identical
for all the Item Levels.
However,if we create a PR directly in R/3 system and then convert these
PR's into PO's in the backend R/3 system,we find that the deliver
address are getting printed at the Header Level if the delivery address
is same for all the item level(which is as desired)
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
RKS

HI Paul,
Thank you for your response.In our case even if all the Line/items level have same Plant and storage location still the delivery address is getting printed at Item level and not at Header Level and this is happening only for PO's created from PR's orginating from SRM7.0.
However if we create PR's directly in R/3 and then convert them into PO's,the delivery address is getting printed at the Header level if the delivery address is same for all the Item level.
Can you plz some insite into this?
Your help will be highly appreciated.

Any questions on Order Management Header and Item level?

Hi,
If you are interviewing somebody...And the position he wants is SD consultant.
What kind of questions will you raise on OM header level and item level??
Order management--Questions on Header level
Questions on item level
Thanks, would be better if you could also attach the answer.
Thanks!!

Dear Hoo,
ORDER MANAGEMENT & SALES
1.Briefly describe the types and structure of the sales document and give examples of data
that you find on the different levels.
Sales*related business transactions are recorded in the system as sales documents. There are, broadly
speaking, four different groupings of sales documents:
Sales queries, such as inquiries and quotations
Sales orders
Outline agreements, such as contracts and scheduling agreements
Customer problems and complaints, such as free of charge deliveries and credit memo requests.
Header Data
The general data that is valid for the entire document is recorded in the document header. This data
includes the:
number of the sold*to party
number of the ship*to party and the payer
document currency and exchange rate
pricing elements for the entire document
delivery date and shipping point
Item Data
Whereas data in the document header applies to all items in the document, some data applies only to
specific items. This data is stored at item level and includes the:
material number
target quantity for outline agreements
number of the shipto party and the payer (an alternative shipto party or payer can be defined for a
particular item)
plant and storage location specifications
pricing elements for the individual items
Schedule Line Data
An item consists of one or more schedule lines. The schedule line contains all the data that is needed
for a delivery. For example, a customer orders 20 pieces of a material and you enter this as an item in
the sales order. However, you can only deliver 10 pieces now and the remaining 10 pieces next month.
In other words, you need to schedule two deliveries. The data for these deliveries (dates, confirmed
quantities) are stored in two separate schedule lines. In sales documents where delivery data is not
relevant *for example: contracts, credit and debit memo requests * the system does not create any
schedule lines.
Data recorded in the schedule lines includes the:
schedule line quantity
delivery date
confirmed quantity
2.What is the difference between an inquiry and quotation ?
. Inquiry: Request made to a vendor for a quotation for required materials or services.
No availability check is done for inquiry.
. Quotation: Offer from a vendor to a purchasing organization regarding the supply of materials
or performance of services subject to predefined terms and conditions.
A quotation consists of a number of items, in which the total quantity and delivery date of an
offered material or service are specified.
The total quantity can be subdivided into several partial quantities with different delivery dates in the
lines of a delivery schedule.
3.Do you always have to have a material master record number when you enter an item on a
sales document (inquiry and quote)? If not what would you have to use to be able to enter
information at item level?
No. Customer Material Information or Material Description.
4.If a customer doesn't place an order with you after you have sent him a quotation, what happens to
the quotation document?
Remains active till the end of validity period.
5.Can you have alternative items in a sales order?
Yes.
6.If you reference an inquiry when creating a quotation ,would the inquiry be updated?
Yes.
7.Can you copy one inquiry to many quotations ?
No.
8.Can you copy several previous documents into one sales order?
Yes.
9.Do you always have to copy the entire quantities at item level when you reference a
previous document?
No.
10.Can you make sure that business data in a sales order is only possible to maintain at header
level?
Yes.
11.From where is the delivering plant transferred into the sales order?
Customer Master, Material Master.
12.Which partner function is relevant for the delivering plant? The soldtoparty ,
billtoparty, payer, carrier or the ship* to* party?
Ship*to party.
13.Can you manually change the delivering plant in the sales order once it was defaulted from
the master data?
Yes.
14.For what or why do you use the incompletion log?
To have a complete document so that it doesnu2019t affect subsequent processes.
15.Can you have different incompletion logs for different item categories? Schedule line
categories?
Yes.
16.If a document is incomplete can you still save the document?
Yes.
17.Which reference status can a document have at item level? Which statuses at header level?
Item level: Partial, Full.
Header level: Full.
18.What's the advantage of using text as a reference instead of duplicating it?
Can be modified if needed.
19.What three sources provide data for the creation of a sales document?
Material Master, Customer Master, Previous referenced documents.
20.Can you change addresses of partners manually in the sales document?
Yes.
21.Name several input tools that make order entry faster and give a definition of them?
Customer Material Information, Product Proposal , Referencing Documents.
22.In which business environment would you use only the single*line entry screen to create
and save the order?
Telephone Sales, Simple Business.
23.If you do not specify the delivering plant in the sales order, what could the system then not
do?
Delivery Scheduling.
24.For what would you use the fast change function in sales entry?
Alternate Plants, Delivery or Billing Blocks
25.Name two ways to control that customers can receive only certain materials?
Material Listing, Exclusion.
26.What does the item category control?
General Data
. Should pricing be carried out for the item?
. When should an item be regarded as completed? A quotation item, for example, can only be
regarded as completed if the entire quantity has been copied into a sales order.
. Is it an item that refers to a material or is it a text item?
. Are schedule lines allowed for the item?
. May general business data, for example, the terms of payment at the item level, deviate from
those at the header level?
. Should a system message appear if the item cannot be fully delivered?
. Which fields are relevant for the incompletion log?
. Which partner functions are allowed at the item level and which are mandatory?
. Which output (for example, an order confirmation) is allowed for the business transaction and
which output determination procedure is used?
Shipping Data
. Is an item relevant for delivery?
. Should the weight and the volume of an item be determined?
Billing Data
. Is an item relevant for billing?
. Should the cost of the item be determined?
. Is it a statistical item? Pricing is carried out for statistical items. However, they are not added
to the value of the order, that is, the customer is not charged for them.
. Should a billing block be set automatically for an item? For example, this may be important for
items whose prices have to be clarified before billing
. Is it a returns item?
. Name the influencing factors for determining the item category in the sales document?
. Sales Document type, Item Category Group, Higher Level Item, Item Usage.
. Name the influencing factors for determining the scehdule line category in the sales document?
. Item Category, MRP Type.
. What does the sales document type control?
General Data
. Can the document be entered only with reference to a preceding document?
. Should the existing customer
. material info record be taken into consideration?
. Should the delivery date be proposed?
. Must a customer number be entered when creating a document? For example, product
proposals can be entered without reference to a particular customer.
. Which order probability is defined?
. Should the division be taken from the material master record for every item or should an
alternative division specified in the header take precedence over the item specifications?
. How should the system respond if the division entered in the header deviates from the division
in the items?
. Should a credit limit check be made?
. From which number range should the document number for internal or external number
assignment come?
. Which fields are relevant for the incompletion log? The validity period, for example, is
important for contracts and must therefore be specified in the document.
. Can an incomplete document be saved or must all data be complete?
. Which partner functions are allowed and which ones are mandatory?
Shipping Data
. Which delivery type should the delivery resulting from the order have?
. Should delivery scheduling be carried out?
. Should transportation scheduling be carried out?
. Should a delivery block be set automatically for a specific reason? For example, a delivery
block may be appropriate for a freeofcharge delivery.
. You can define shipping conditions for a sales document type. These are copied into the
document regardless of what is defined in the customer master record.
Billing Data
-->Which billing type should the invoice resulting from the order or the delivery have?
Should a billing block be set automatically for a specific reason? For example, a billing block may be
appropriate if a credit memo request should first be checked before it is used as the basis for a credit
memo.
-->Can the sales document type be determined by the system?
No.
-->In R/3, can you automatically substitute one product for another? How? What would you
have to create?
Yes. Product Selection / Material Determination.
-->Give a definition of replenishment lead time?
Total time for the inhouse production or for the external procurement of a product. In inhouse
production the replenishment lead time is determined to cover all BOM levels.
What's the difference between checking availability with or without replenishment lead time (RLT)?
With RLT : Availability check is done only upto end of RLT. If material is not available the date on
which RLT ends is displayed as Material Availability Date.
Without RLT : Availability check is unrestricted. Displays Delivery Dates as on which partial deliveries
can be made with available stock.
-->Name at least three item categories?
Standard Items : AFN, AGN, TAN.
Free of charge Items: AFNN, AGNN, TANN.
Non*stock Items : AFX, AGX, TAX.
Text Items : AFTX, AGTX, TATX.
-->Why would you use different item and schedule line categories?
Item categories are defined to provide additional control functions for the sales documents and thus
meet the demands resulting from the different business transactions.
The items in a sales document are divided into one or more schedule lines. These schedule lines differ
from each other with respect to date and quantity. For some schedule lines, material requirements
planning is not carried out; for other schedule lines, it is carried out. Also goods receipt, not goods
issue, is posted for a schedule line defined in a returns document.
-->Can you change existing standard item categories?
Yes.
-->Can you create new sales order types?
Yes.
-->Different dates will be calculated in order entry scheduling . Can you name the lead time
variables that will be taken into account?
Transportation lead time, Pick/pack time, Loading time, Transit time .
If you run out of stock in a specific plant can you check if there are quantities available in other plants?
Yes.
-->When you carry out availability check, which quantities or movements can the system take
into consideration?
The following elements can be included in the availability check:
Stocks : safety stock, stock in transfer, stock in quality inspection, blocked stock.
Inward and outward movements : purchase orders, purchase requisitions, planned orders, production
orders, reservations, dependent reservations, dependent requirements, sales requirements, delivery
requirements.
-->Give some examples of sales document types (description, not necessary the short code)
that already set up in the standard system?
Indicator used to control the processing of the various sales documents which are defined in the
system. E.g., OR, SO, BV, KR. Document types allow the system to process different kinds of business
transactions, such as standard orders and credit memo requests, in different ways.
-->Can you maintain texts for a specific customer and store them in the system? If yes, where?
Yes. Customer Material Information.
-->When the system checks availability which scheduling would it use first?
Backward Scheduling.
-->Name the influencing factors for the determination of the availability date?
The following data is required for determining this date:
Route from the shipping point to the ship*to party location
Shipping point from which the goods are issued
Loading group from the material master record
Weight group determined from the order using the order quantity.
-->Name the three delivery possibilities when there is not enough stock available?
One Time Delivery, Complete Delivery, Partial Deliveries.
-->Can you think of an example why you would have to create a text for a customer and copy it
to the sales order?
Customer specific instructions.
-->What is the function of item category group?
The item category group determines how a material is processed in the sales order. It defines, for
example, that pricing does not take place for a free of charge item, such as a business gift; or that
inventory management is not carried out for a service. When processing sales and distribution
documents, the system uses the item category group to determine the item category. The system
determines the item category based on the item category group of the material and the current
business transaction, and proposes it in the respective document.
When creating the material types non*stock material and services, DIEN is proposed in both cases for
the item category group, because the order processing for both material types is identical: for
example, pricing is carried out for both, but no availability check.
-->On sales order, when the system confirms 20 pieces to be available at a certain date, would
these 20 pieces still be available for other new sales order coming in later?
No.
-->What is a delivery group and why would you use it?
The complete delivery and delivery group functions enable you to combine some or all of the items in a
sales order so that they are delivered to the customer together. The system determines automatically
the latest delivery date possible for the delivery group and adjusts the schedule lines accordingly.
Corresponding requirements for material requirements planning (MRP) are changed or re*determined.
-->What is backorder processing?
The backorder processing functions enable you to list relevant sales documents for specific materials
and process them from the point of view of availability. You can assign available to promise (ATP)
stock to outstanding order quantities. In addition, you can withdraw already confirmed quantities and
reassign them to different items.
Backorder processing is only available for materials with individual requirements.
-->Can you link items in a sales order? If yes, when would you do that?
Yes. Promotional Items.
-->For what would you use BOMu2019S in sales? What two methods of BOM processing do you have
in sales order entry? How can you control if the system should/should not explode a BOM in
the sales order.
A bill of material (BOM) describes the different components that together create a product. A BOM for

Name the several steps in consignment processing.
Consignment fillup, Consignment issue, Consignment pickup, Consignment return.
Whatu2019s the difference between consignment pick*up and consignment return?
In consignment pick*up, customer returns consignment stock. When goods issue is posted, the
relevant quantity is deducted from the customer's special stock and is added back to regular stock at
the plant where the goods are returned. Total valuated stock remains the same since the returned
stock was regarded as part of inventory even while it was at the customer's premises.This transaction
is not relevant for billing.
In consignment return, customer wishes to claim on consignment goods which have already been
issued. When goods issue is posted, the relevant quantity is added to the customer's special stock at
the plant where the goods are returned. Since the ownership of the goods is passed from the customer
back to the company, the transaction is relevant for billing. In this case, the customer receives a credit
memo for the returned goods.

Header data not getting updated in line item level

Hi,
We are trying to update Pricing date at header level but it is not gettting copied to item level.
getting an message "The header business data does not apply to item xxxx"
i have checked the item category and "business item" field is checked. and for the same sales order previously we were able to change the pricing date at header level and it got applied to item level but this time is is not getting applied.
kindly suggest.

If there are multiple line items which are having different data; in your case, Pricing Date, then in that case, when you try to change at header level, system will pop up this message.
You can also have a look at the following note:-
Note 336660 - Message V1403 in sales order with article order no

PO number prints only if it is at header level not for item level

Hi All,
I am not able to print the PO number in my order acknowledgement and COA printout when I enter the PO number in the sales order at item level of only. It prints fine when it is at the header level.
Please assist.
Thank you,
Shanu Jain

Hi,
BSTKD Field in the VBKD is dependent on two things . IF the Header PO Number is same as the Item number if u change at Header level it will be changed at all items level also. If both are diff then if u change the PO Number at Header level it will change PO numbers of the Items which is having same value as Header Po Number otherwise it wont change the Item PO Number .
Ex " Order Number 1000 is having PO Number at Header Level is PO1. And the sales order is having Item 010 and 020.
IF Item 010 and 020 is having PO1 at item level if u change the value of PO1 at header Level if will be applicable to items 010 and 020.
If Item 010 is having Po Number PO1 and 020 is having PO2, if i change value of PO number at header to PO3 then it will change Item 010 PO Number to PO3 and Item 020 PO Number will be same as PO2.
Try to Take The VBKD - BSTKD where Item Number POSNR is blank that means Header PO Number .
IF u want Item Po Number then pass the item number in POSNR and get it.

Srinivas.
