Vendor No#  is not in Company Code, but SAP allow to create PO ?

Hi All,
In the Purchasing Order (PO) header, we create Purchasing Org, Purchasing Group and Company Code "A" .
However, users input incorrect Company Code "B" in the PO and the vendor do not exist in Company Code "B" . PO created is successfully, but error out when user input invoice against the PO.
Anybody know how to prevent user input incorrect company code in PO when vendor do not exist in the company ?
Thank you
Alex

from FAQ note 491789
Why can I still change the company code  at header level of the purchase order although follow-on documents (goods receipt, invoice receipt ...) already exist?
Answer:
In the purchase order there is a company code at header level (field EKKO-BUKRS) and a company code at item level (field EKPO-BUKRS). The company code at item level is relevant for the update of the FI and CO documents. This company code is always derived from the plant and therefore you can no longer change it.
What significance does the company code have at header level of the purchase order?
Answer:
The local currency and the corresponding conversion factors are determined from the company code on header level, as well as the VAT registration number (VAT reg.no.).
for PO creation the vendor does not need to have the  company code data views maintained. This speeds up the process, you can already order while Accounting has not finished the data maintenance. CC data is first time  needed when you like to process goods receipt and invoice receipt.

  • Vendor is not extended to a Co Code but still able to create a PO

    Hi Guys
    I got an issue here. A Vendor "X "is not extended to a Company code 'Y" but still able to create a PO without any error or warning message. ( Normally system wont allow and throws a error message saying Vendor not extended to a Company Code) But its not happening here!! 
    Do we need to maintain any configuration so that SAP wont allow to use a vendor which is not extended to a particular Company Code. Or is it a Master Data Issue?
    Please help
    Thanks

  • PO vendor not in company code

    Hi,
    We have two company code in SAP, these two company codes share the same purchasing org. For one vendor exist in company code:A, not exist in company code:B, it is still successful of using this vendor to create a PO of company code:B.
    It is stranger, is this a SAP standard behaviour? Any customizing to stop this?
    Thanks

    Yes, because at the time of PO creation, it just checks the purchasing organization data in vendor master.
    In your case, same purchsing organization is responsible for both the company code, so PO creation allows for both company code
    If you want to restrict the PO creaion for other Company code then create a seperate Purchasing Organization for other company code.

  • Risks when locking Prod in SCC4, but not setting Company Code to productive

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out the risks related to not setting Company Codes to productive... even though the Production system is locked in SCC4. Will the lock in SCC4 mitigate the risk of not setting Company Codes to productive?
    To my understanding, setting Company Codes to non-productive in the Production system would result in a risk for deleting financial data. I therefore wonder if defining the lock in SCC4 would compensate for this risk.
    Regards
    IT-auditor

    I asked myself the same question.
    The F1-help in SCC4 says the following:
    "This field should be maintained by the customer for documentary purposes."
    But also:
    "- Production clients and SAP reference clients are protected from the client copy tools, including "Copy by Transport Request" (transaction SCC1).
    - There is corresponding protection from the automatic Customizing Distribution and other tools.
    - In a production client, customizing settings that can be maintained as "current settings" are excluded from a client lock or transport connection; this means current settings (e.g. exchange rates, posting periods) can always be maintained in a productive client without recording changes. Other clients usually require a transport request."
    So, i think that the client role option is more a documentation thing. But also disables some client copy and automatic transport functionality. In my opinion it should be "production" on a production system because if not there are several functions activated that shouldn´t be for security reasons. 
    That´s what i think. Maybe someone can correct me or give more information to this thread.

  • PO creation-ME21n-Why SAP does not check company code and Plant relation

    Hi All,
    Does someone know, why SAP does not check Plant and company code relation at the time of PO creation or how can we put validation between plant and company code at the time of PO creation.
    <b>Example:</b> Suppose i have a company 0001 which is assinged to Plant 0001. when i am creating a PO with another company code 0002(Entering at header level-Org, data) and using Plant 0001 at line item level. SAP does not do this validation.
    How can we put this check in place?
    Thanks in advance.
    Deepak

    Hello Deepak,
    There are three types of purchasing
    - Company code specific :You need to assign company code to Pur organization
    - Plant specific : You must assign plant to pur organization
    - Cross company purchasing: No assignment between company code and pur organization.
    In the case 3, the system will not check company code and plant relationship, but it will check plant and pur organization specific.
    The following is the copy of sap help text:
    You can assign a purchasing organization to one company code. This is company-specific purchasing.
    You can assign a purchasing organization to no company code. This purchasing organization can then procure for all plants assigned to it, irrespective of the company code to which the plant belongs.
    Since each plant must be assigned to a company code, the company code can be determined via the plant in each procurement transaction, even if the procuring purchasing organization is not assigned to a company code.
    A purchasing organization must be assigned to one or more plants. This is plant-specific purchasing.
    Now, check your company-code and purchase organization assignment.
    Hope this helps.

  • Error in ASKB "Asset 1-177 0 not in company code LX01'

    Hi Experts,
    Until Jan. 2009, only 1 depreciation area is activated for company code LX01 (01). For some assets, we had retirements/write-up postings. Came Feb. 2009, dep.area 10 was activated.
    With 2009 year-end closing AJAB, the process found an error ' Transactions not periodically posted'. This error upon analysing was due to those assets posted with retirements/write-ups (Jan. 09) and mentioned that ASKB needs to be executed for these assets for deparea 10. It's logical that there are no postings on these new accounts for January and the system should not ask them. For example there also are no depreciation postings in area 10 for January and this does not generate any problem. Then, why in ERP, the ASKB for deparea 10 is needed for those related assets?
    Also, I tried to process ASKB for deparea 10 to complete, but another error prompted: Message AA001 'Asset 1-177 0 not in company code LX01'. With this error message, I changed the 'Deactivation on' field in the masterdata and tried to rerun ASKB, but still this error exists. Would you know why or how this error could be eliminated?
    Kindly help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ravi,
    Controlling area and Company code details are proper. I have to check the SAP Notes which you have provided. What are the conditions to receive this message?
    I have created many assets before in the same company. Yesterday when i was using transaction AS03 to see one asset, system displayed the error message that particular asset was locked by me eventhough I was not doing anything with that Asset. So I used transaction SM12 to delete the lock entries. Later on I checked the transaction AS03 to see the asset, strangely system displaying the error message that particular asset is not availble in the Company code. I have created another asset aswell for testing, the same error message is continuing for this asset also. System is not displaying any error messagewhile creating the asset and displaying error message while display and change mode.
    Please advice me.

  • Multiple Financial Accounting Company Codes but only 1 Legal Entity

    Hi all,
    We are implementing various countries payrolls, which includes posting to general ledger.
    We have a situation whereby there are many company codes for financial accounting purpose (local term calls them company code / sector). These separate company codes need to be differentiated in posting documents.
    For most countries we are able to have many company codes but 1 legal entity (for e.g 1 tax reference number, and company details for statutory reporting for various company codes). But for Malaysia, this is not allowed.
    I understand that commonly that Company Code in SAP should be legal entity. But there are many companies who practises different external financial reporting that have 1 legal entity separated in different sector for GL / financial reporting purpose.
    My question is:
    1. How can we set multiple company codes, but with 1 legal entity details (e.g. Tax Reference Number, Legal Entity Company Name and Address for Statutory reporting) for Malaysia?
    2. If this is not possibe, how can we split up the GL file (or at least have different separation in the same file to show the different company codes)? It does't seem that Personnel Area or Personnel Area is picked up by PC00_M99_CIPE (payroll posting). Where can we store this besides Business Area field for individual employees (as this field is already used to distinguish another internal GL reporting, e.g. for Indirect / Direct Employee).
    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    A client can either be valid for a company code at the smallest level, or the entire
    corporate group.
    The company code is defined in financial accounting. The balance
    sheet and profit and loss statements are drawn up at the company code level.
    The personnel area, which is only used in Personnel Administration, is unique in each
    client. You must assign each personnel area to a company code.
    You also use the personnel subarea only in Personnel Administration and it is the smallest element of
    the enterprise structure. You link the groupings that define the entries to be used for
    employees of a particular company code/personnel area to the personnel subarea.
    I understand your question ,
    question 1 is belong to FICO quesion , as a HR counsultant you have only way:
    one way  set  your multiple company as HR personnel area level ,then make those personnel area belong to the company that with 1 legal entity details ,
    another way is set  your multiple company as a company have company code at SAP , then posting to each company ,then let FICO department to  adjust subsequent account.
    hope can help you

  • Asset not in company code

    Dear all
    I am entering a purchase order referncing from requisition, its standard purchase order  while procesing it  system is giving an error  "Asset 0 not in company code"
    Thanks
    Rashid

    If you are not wanting to make an assets purchase order, you will have to remove the account assignment category "A" from the line item of the purchase order.
    If you have entered any account assignment category then you might notice a new tab in the item detail where it asks you for the asset number.

  • Timewrite across company codes using SAP CATS.

    Hi Experts,

    Thanks,

    Hello,
    You surely can.
    When the employee enter his time there will be the respective field to identify the cost center or the one you want to assign.
    If you are using the Worklist, bear in mind to correctly have those codes assigned and I would mention to filter the worklist via CATS0001 user-exit to show only the correct ones (which are relevant for that employee).
