Vendor hierarchy / Vendor parentage

Dear all.
I am doing an intership and I am starting some research on vendor hierarchy (different hierarchy, level,..) but I did not find info on the web.
Could you help me finding information/background/documentation around the topic "vendor hierarchy"/"vendor parentage", also called supplier hierarchy or vendor parent-child relationship ???
Thank you all in advance for your help and collaboration.
Regards
Justin

hi prafulla,
Vendor hierarchies are used during purchase order processing and billing for determining pricing, including rebates. Vendor hierarchies may be useful for your organization if you trade with vendors who have complex, external structures that you need to take into account for pricing. For example, you trade with major retail chains or large concerns that are organized in hierarchies with numerous levels.
Here is the link gives more details on Vender Hierarchy.

Standard SAP report for vendor hierarchy

Hi Gurus,
Does SAP have standard report for vendor hierarchy? We want to use vendor hierarchy to capture all the expense to a list of vendors and wondering if we can utilize some standard report to see the total supply or we should develop custom reports to handle them?
Thanks a lot

Extractor for Vendor Classification as hierarchy

Hello,
The standard don't extract more than one value for the classifcation. Then, I want to extract this data as a hiearchy.
Example R/3:
Vendor Classification
V1 G1
V1 G2
V2 G3
V3 G1
V3 G3
Then, the datasource should create this hierarchy:
G1
...V1
...V3
G2
...V1
G3
...V2
...V3
...V1
¿Could you give me an ABAP code to do this and to create the DataSource? ¿More ideas?

Hello Syed,
Classification data for objects like material or vendor needs to pulled through classification data sources which needs to created specifically through transaction CTBW.
I am not sure whak kind of information you are looking for...but if it is the information about classification then it has to be created.
You can just make a search on classification data sources as there are numerous threads about it.
If its just classification characteristics like vendor type then you can look for master data sources for these objects.
Thanks

Vendor Hierarchy with Pricing from Info Record

Hi All,
We are currently exploring configuration options available to use a 'Vendor Hierarchy' for price determination during Purchase Order processing - R/3 46C
We also have a specific business requirement that requires our Vendor Hierarchy node prices be maintained in an Info Record (using a 'PB00' type condition type) rather than the 'LH01' and 'LH02' condition types used to maintain price conditions directly in the Vendor Hierarchy.
Does anyone know if it is possible to combine a Vendor Hierarchy with pricing that is sourced from Info Record rather than the standard 'LH01' and 'LH02' Vendor Hierarchy pricing conditions in the standard system?
Thanks,
Ravelle

How to use Vendor Hierarchy in Vendor Rebate Agreements

Hi Friends,
I need to use vendor hierarchy in vendor rebates agreements.
Here are some inputs from my end so far I have done:
Customizing Settings for vendor hierarchy and rebate agreement (agreement type 3000 and condition types A003/ A004) have been done.
While creating the PO after creating rebate agreement (MEB1) I am able to see all higher partner functions (2A,2B,2C,2D) at header level in PO under partners.
I have (say ) 3 vendors V1, V2, V3 (V1 being highest) set up in vendor hierarchy (MKH1).
My requirement is; if my company make any rebate agreement with vendor at any node below the highest in the vendor hierarchy then that business volume should be taken in consideration for rebate purpose with the vendor at higher level while making any agreement with him.
I request you to please let me know how to set up this.

Hi lvshaolong,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I believe I have not misunderstood the business scenario.
But may I request you to tell me the process steps for the senario you told which is "Normally , you define condition with highest node in hierachy and then you can refer to it when you do biz with the lower nodes". How vendor rebate process takes place this scenarion (I mean process flow).
This might help me to find some solution further.
More input from my end:
When I am creating the PO against a vendor included in the vendor hierarchy(after agreement), rabate condiion A003 or A004 is not appearing in pricing and hence during BV comparison,system does not find any data to update.

Vendor Hierarchy in MDG

Hello experts,
I have a requirement for making a replication of Vendor Hierarchy, how it is on ECC, i need to produce the name results in MDG Supplier/Vendor.
I do know that MDG works on Business Partner functionality, which is different.
My question is, do we design from scratch Vendor Hierarchy or extend it.
Also some inputs from MDG BP perspective, why is it different

Purchase Order with Vendor Hierarchy

Hello,
I created a PO to a vendor that is in a vendor hierarchy and I wanted that the pricing conditions considered were the pricing conditions of the top level vendor.
The pricing conditions that are being considered are the conditions from the vendor for what I've created the PO.
Can anyone help me in this thing?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Nelson Ribeiro.

The functionality is available on the following link:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/12/0845cd470311d1894a0000e8323352/frameset.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/12/0845cd470311d1894a0000e8323352/frameset.htm</a>
The requirment is when we are creating a PO for a vendor that is one a lower level of the hierarchy the pricing conditions to be carried out are the ones associated with the vendor that is on the top level.
I hope I was able to clarify you with my doubt.

Nelson Ribeiro.

Vendor hierarchy

Hi,
I am using ECC 6.0.
I would like to create vendor hierarchy in ECC just to enable reporting on vendor group.
A vendor group contains several vendor belonging to the same group.
I do not want to drive any price or address determination.
Could someone drive me in this process ?
Thanks,
Kind regards,
Yann

Hi Yann,
No not exactly : I meant to use this exit to validate the entries in the group field that you were going to use to make sure that the entry in that group field was indeed a valid vendor number.
But since we don't have a field yet, there is nothing to validate.
You can explore via SE11 some more possible fields in LFA1, LFB1, LFM1, LFM2 etc..because not all fields are visible on screen for all account groups.
If you don't find any suitable candidate, you either use standard hierarchies or add a Z-field to one of the standard tables ( via append structure : upgrade safe ) and put it on the screen. I'm nearly sure there are also screen exits for this ( certainly on the customer master side ),

Vendor Hierarchy Validity Dates

Hi
I have a scenario where we need o create Vendor Hierarchy with past validity dates to support rebate aggrements, SAP standard will only allow you to create Vendor Hierarchy with validity date as current date.
What is the alternative approach for this, is there any way we can maintain vendor hierarchy with historic past date as validity date.
Appreciate your inputs on this.
Regards
Vickey

Hi venkat,
I have worked in Territory but never encounter any mass update issue. I dont think that there is any standard API to do so. You would have to write a program/API to do so.
Why mass update of validity dates for Territories ? I am interested to know the current Territory model at your site. When you create any terriotry then its Valid to date remains as 31.12.9999 by dafualt. As per your requirement you can create more valdiity period within this period. Had you delimit the valid to date during Terriotry creation ?

Pricing and vendor hierarchy

Hi Gurus,
Can you pls explain that how pricing workings with vendor hierarchy. I set up a vendor hierarchy and would like to have an outline agreement with the parent and the children should be able to inherit the agreement price. Can this work? Or Vendor Hierarchy for reporting purpose only? thank you so much!!!

Hi,
Use following condition tables for pricing; (M/05)
107 Vendor Hierarchy
108 Vendor Hierarchy / Material
109 Vendor hierarchy: vendor sub-range
Access Sequences used are; (M/07)
0011 Vendor hierarchy
0012 Vendor Hierarchy Material
M/06 - Create Condition Types for Discount on Vendor hierarchy basis and assign Access Sequences 0011 or 0012 as per requirement
M/08 - Insert these condition types in MM Pricing
MEK1 - Maintain condition record for the condition type and check in Purchasing Document, it will reflect

Vendor Hierarchy and purchase orders

Hi,
We have activated the vendor hierarchy and it's working in purchase order, but we want to control the same. for Example, we have assigned X and Y as goods suppliers in Vendor Master of A in partner function.
and system shows the same when we create purchase order but we can skip it or change the name of goods supplier in purchase order which we don't want to do,
So pls help us how can we control the same, we want in purchase order, we can assign only a goods supplier which will be either X or Y not beyond that.
Pls advice.
Thanks
Sandeep

Go to IMG - Material management - Purchasing - Partner determination - Partner setting in Purchasing document - Define Partner schema..
Here make a partner schema with GS (Goods supplier) as No Change...
Then go to the next step i.e. Assign partner schema to Document type..
Here assign the schema created it the previous step to the document type u want (for eg. NB - standard PO... Assign the schema created)
This will not allow you to change supplier field in standard PO.

Mayank
