Very imp purchase organisation and group

please provide me the exact differences between purchase organisation and purcahse group.
regards

Dear,
A purchasing group is a key for a buyer or a group of buyers who are responsible for purchasing activities. The purchasing group is not assigned to other units of the enterprise structure in SAP R/3.
Purchasing organization is an organizational unit within logistics that subdivides the enterprise according to the purchasing requirements.
A purchase organization procures materials or services, negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and assumes responsibility for these transactions.
You can incorporate purchasing into company structure by assigning the purchasing organization to a company code and to plants. This means you can take into account whether purchasing is organized on a centralized or decentralized basis in your company. You can have a combination of these two also.
You can assign several purchase organizations to one company code. However a certain purchase organization is belongs to only one company code.
You can decide not assign a purchase organizations to company code in case of cross-company purchasing.
You can assign several plants to a purchase organizations and one plant to several purchase organizations.
For plant specific purchases, a purchase organization is purchase materials to only one plant.
If a purchase organization is to procure materials or services for several plants in a company code, you can set up a cross-plant purchasing organization within the company code. To do so, you assign the purchase organization to company code and after this you assign the plants for which the purchase organizations are to be responsible.
If a purchase organizations is responsible for procurement for all plants of a company code, the above setting not enough, but you must always assign the plants to a purchasing organization that is to procure for them.
However, assignment of purchase organizations to a company code is not necessary.
If you want to assign cross-company code purchasing, you must not assign the purchasing organization to any company codes in customizing.

Syed Hussain.

I have to find the partner number of the Purchasing organisation and group to which a user is assigned. I have the partner number of the user.

I have found the purchasing group of the user using BBP_OM_STRUC_GET_ORG_FROM_USER( here I have to pass the user name which I found from the partner number of the user using BUP_PARTNER_TO_USER_CONVERT.)
Eventually, once I have the partner number of Purchasing org and grp I have to fetch the address details using BUPA_ADDRESS_GET_DETAIL(this requires the partner number.)

User assignment to purchasing organisation and purchasing groups

Dear Experts,
My issue is related to user assignment to purchasing organisation and purchasing groups.
According to the project requirement, we are using central purchasing organisation and we should create the purchasing organisations and purchasing groups locally. it is not reflected from the back end systems through RFC.
Also we have one more team working with indirect materials and they also use SRM. They have already created the organisation model. Two projects are inter-related and belongs to same department in the company, but main different is one uses direct and the other in-direct materials.
Now we should create our purchasing organisation and purchasing groups and assign the users to it.
If we create it separately means not uder the main root and assign the users, we are able to create shopping cart till the contract. But when i create the new purchasing organisation and purchasing groups under the main root which is created for other project which deals with in-direct materails, i am not able to create shopping cart with the user. I am getting the error
' Process scheme could not be found
Please let me know how to deal with this scenario. here i need to add the purchasing organisation and purchasing groups under main root because of the reason that in the other project, purchasing organisation and purchasing groups defined needs to be accessed by our users as well. I mean the users should be able to access all the purchasing organisation and purchasing groups created under root node which gets the purchasing organisation and purchasing groups from the back end systems and the purchasing organisation and purchasing groups we created manually since we cant get it from back end system since it is central purchasing organisation.
Please asvise
Best regards,
Srinath

Hello Masa,
Thanks very much for your time and solution.
Actually the problem was something else and was fixed.
The reason for getting error 'Process schema was not yet defined' is because of missing definition of process schedma for the workflow since the process based workflow setting has been activated.
So this has been resolved by copying the sap standard customizing BC set for SRM workflow using transaction SAPR20 and then process schema for workflow got configured or copied automatically from SAP BC set and the error was removed.
Also the reason for error with user was that no purchaser assignment was done to the purchasing organisation and now it has been done and the users can access the SRM and create shopping cart and the contract.

Srinath

Hi All,
In CRM, Tcode BP, In the Application Toolbar Objects like Person,Organisation and Group.
In that How to Deactive the Organistaion and Group.and the Person should be active only.
Please let me know it.

A simple solution would be:
Goto transaction 'BUSD' (transaction to maintain roles).
Select the role '000000'(Business Partner -General) -> Click on theDetails (CtrlShiftF2) in the tool-bar above. In the new screen showing the details of the role disable the Category 'GROUP' for thisrole. This would disable the 'Create Group' button in the 'BP'transaction.The role '000000' is the basic role for a partner. If the requirement is to disable the group button for all the roles -> Follow the same procedure for the remaining roles.

Relation between a Purchase Organisation and Reference PORg

Hi ,
1) Can any one explain me what is the relation between a Purchase Organisation and Reference Purchase Organistion.
2) I have removed the assignment of Purchase organisation 1000 to the Reference POrg 6666 . I want to do the testing in development server after making the above configuation change. Can any one let me know how to do the testing to see that this configuration change is taken place?.
Thanks in advance.

hi
Ref. Pur Organisation is used when there is no centralized pur. organisation. You have to define 1 pur. organsation as refernce pur. organisation and link other pur orgnisations to this ref. pur. orgaisation. When you create a contract using this pur. organisation and this contract can be used by other pur orgasations which are linked to this ref. pur oganisation.
Ref. Pur Organisation is basically used for better negotiation.
Eg- You are having 2 plants (A & B) of 2 different company code(A & B).
1. Pur org A is assigned to company code A & plant A
2. Pur Orga B is assigned to company code B & plant B.
3. Ref pur organisation C is created and linked to Pur organisation A and B.
Scenario -
Vendor A can supply Material A 1000 qty at Rs. 100 whereas more than 1000 qty at Rs. 90.
But your requirement for Plant A is Rs. 800 and Plant B is Rs.700
If you create a contract on plant basis to the Vendor A then you have to pay Rs. 100.
But if you create a contract with ref pur organisation C for total requirement of Rs.1500 without plant basis then rate will be only Rs.90.
Then this contract can referred by both the plant and can be converted to P.O at Rs.90.

Very imp stock transfer and stock transport order

hi folks,
please explain me in detail the difference between stock transfer and stock transport order.
regards,meena

Hi:
Stock Transfer is the physical movement of material from one location to another location,stock transport order is one way of doing the stok transfer.
Stock can be transfer between plant to plant,company code to company code,storage location to storage location.
However there are different procedures for stock transfers:
1.Stock Transfer using one step procedure: Here Goods issue and Goods receipts happens in single step.
2.Stock Transfer using Two stage procedure:The two-step procedure allows you to monitor the stocks in transit. After the goods issue is posted at the issuing point, the stock appears "in stock transfer" at the receiving point and is managed as such in the system.
3.Stock Transport Order:
This is transfer of material from one plant to other plant or co.code to co.code via SD route.
Here a.receiving plant raise the stock transport order on issuing plant.
       b. Issiuing plant creates the outbounmd delivery against STO and PGI.IF it is in India,then excise
           invoice creation.
       c. Receiving plant post the goods receipt against outbound delivery and post the excise ivoice.
       d. Invoice verification.
The main advantage of Stock Transport order is you have a more control because you can have purchasing document behind itand you can check the PO history which would gives all the details for Delivery as well GR documents.
However ftor STO via SD you need to configure the set up stock transport order in MM>Purchasing>Purchase Order-->Set Up Stock Transoport order.
Also on a data maintanace side you need to maintain the custmor and vendor relations.
Hope this would helps you.
Cheers

Dif between normal purchase organisation,std pu org and ref pu org

hi
what is the dif between purchase organisation, standard purchase organisation and reference purchase organisation.

Let me add some more...
Normal P.org is to procure either for the plant/entire company code/cross company level based upon assignement settings in SPRO.
for Ref.P.org, it will be simply assigned to other normal P.orgs only but neither assigned to any plant or company code.This is useful to enjoy the corporate contracts and their price benifits.
regarding Std.P.org, it is simply to handle procurement of special stocks if i am not wrong.
Hope this gives straight understanding in simple words.

arun

Purchasing organisation

What is the difference between Reference Purchasing organisation and Central Purchasing organisation.

Vishal
See these examples
Reference Purchasing Organisation
A purchasing organization whose conditions or contracts other purchasing organizations linked to it may access and use.
A reference purchasing organization can make especially favorable conditions or contracts available to other purchasing organizations.
Example
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/0b/ecb237e29bc368e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Central Purchasing Organisation
Centralized/Distributed Purchasing
You can organize your purchasing function in the following ways:
Centralized purchasing, with just one purchasing organization
Distributed purchasing, with a number of different purchasing organizations each responsible for different plants
You could also look this configuration on How to maintain Purchase Organisation
Maintain purchasing organization
In this step, you set up your purchasing organizations.
From the Materials Management and Purchasing view, the purchasing organization is responsible for all purchasing activities (including the processing of requests for quotations and purchase orders, for example).
The purchasing organization is integrated within the organizational structure as follows:
A purchasing organization can be assigned to several company codes.
(= Corporate-group-wide purchasing).
A purchasing organization can be assigned to one company code.
(= Company-specific purchasing).
A purchasing organization can also exist without being assigned to a company code.
Since each plant must be assigned to a company code, the latter can be determined via the plant at the time of each procurement transaction even if the procuring purchasing organization has not been assigned to a company code.
A purchasing organization must be assigned to one or more plants.
(= Plant-specific purchasing).
A purchasing organization can be linked to one or more other purchasing organizations.
(= reference purchasing organization)
For more on this topic, refer to Assign Purchasing Organization to Reference Purchasing Organization.
A purchasing organization can be divided into several purchasing groups that are responsible for different operational areas.
Each purchasing organization has its own info records and conditions for pricing.
Each purchasing organization has its own vendor master data.
Each purchasing organization evaluates its own vendors using MM Vendor Evaluation.
Authorizations for processing purchasing transactions can be assigned to each purchasing organization.
All items of an external purchasing document, that is, request for quotation, purchase order, contract, or scheduling agreement, belong to a purchasing organization.
The purchasing organization is the highest level of aggregation (after the organizational unit "client") for purchasing statistics.
The purchasing organization serves as the selection criterion for lists of all purchasing documents.
Possible organizational forms
You can organize your purchasing function in the following ways:
Corporate-group-wide purchasing
Company-specific purchasing
Plant-specific purchasing
All of these forms can co-exist within a single client.
Corporate-group-wide purchasing:
A purchasing organization is responsible for the purchasing activities of different company codes.
In this case, you do not assign a company code to the purchasing organization, but specify the company code concerned for each individual purchasing transaction. You assign plants from different company codes to the purchasing organization.
Company-specific purchasing:
A purchasing organization is responsible for the purchasing activities of just one company code.
In this case, you assign a company code to the purchasing organization. The purchasing organization may procure only for this company code. You assign only plants of the company code concerned to the purchasing organization.
Plant-specific purchasing:
A purchasing organization is responsible for the purchasing activities of one plant.
In this case, you assign the plant and the company code of the plant to the purchasing organization. The purchasing organization may procure for this plant only.
Note
If you wish to work with a mixture of the above organizational forms, the reference purchasing organization is of significance to you.
It is possible to allow one purchasing organization to access the contracts and conditions of another - a so-called reference purchasing organization. This makes it possible for advantageous terms negotiated by one purchasing organization to also be used by other purchasing organizations.
Recommendation
Purchasing organization 0001 is already preset in all dependent tables.
SAP recommends that you retain this number if you require only one purchasing organization.
You will then have to customize only a few tables.
Hope this helps

Many Purchasing Organisation assigned to 1 Plant?

Hi all
This is going to be an easy question for all the expert here.
While I did some reference for Purchasing Organisation and Plant assignment, I realise that PLANT and P.Org has this M:N relationship.
I interpretate M:N as
(a) 1 PLANT to many P.Org or
(b) 1 P.Org to many PLANT
Questions
1. Does my Intepreation of M:N as above correct?
2. I do not think PLANT and P.Org has this M:N means Many to Many relationship as we cannot do so in SPRO. Please comment.
3. I have been seeing this 1 P.Org to many PLANT in the reference book but there is no actual business examples given to explain and also, I cannot find any such possible assignment in Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Materials Management -< Assign P.Org to Plant. Please advise the actual business example of this case and the SPRO path for this.
Thanks.

Hi Krishna
Thanks for clearing it up. Centralised P. Org is at the Company Level instead of the Company Code Level:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/75/ee0a9555c811d189900000e8322d00/Image191.gif]
Here is the summary:
1. Centralised P. Org = 1 single P. Org responsible for the purchasing of several CoCd. It can be seen in Cross-CoCd-P.Org
scenario. No assignment between CoCd and P.Org is required but the value of CoCd will be prompted for input during the
procurement activity.
2. Cross Plant P.Org (terms used in SAP Certification) is also known as Company-specific P.Org.
Questions:
1. I found out in the SAP Certification Material for the scenario of Plant Specific P. Org assignment with 2 Plants under 2 P. Org respectively, we are asked to "Assign just one plant of the company code to this purchasing organization under Assignment u2192 Materials Management u2192 Assign purchasing organization to plant."
Can't we assign all the plants used (under 1 Company Code) to the individual pairing P.Org 1 by 1? Is this SAP standard config feature to ease consultant?

User and group security

Not sure if this fits here, but here goes...
I have a subportal folder, with a community in side. Inside the community, I have groups. If I give one group the admin level authority, is it just for that community and all of its content, or is it the whole portal. The admin docs are very granular on user and group security throughout the various ways of applying it. WHat I am trying to do is give a group admin control over a singel community as well as full admin control of all groups in the communities admin folder. BUT just those things.
thanks

If I recall correctly, there is no inheritance of user and group rights in PT, at least not in 5.x. If you give some rights on a specific object/folder to a specific group, then it will be for that object only and none of its children.
You do have a choice of propagating of user rights down the ownership tree however. I.e., if you select a community and set some rights for yourself, it will prompt you if you want to propagate the same permissions down the chain, to all of its children. If you say yes, it will replacepermissions on all its children by creating copies. If you say no, you'll have to go and apply different permissions on each child individually.

Service group for particular document type or Purchase Organisation

Dear Gurus,
I want to add service group as like Material group. but my objective is to restrict those service group for particular document type or Purchase Organisation??
Is it possible, if so please advice me the SPRO Settings
Thanks
RS

Hi,
Basically, this task (both customized table activation via SE11 transaction and user exit activation via SE37 transaction) will be done by ABAPer. All you should do is to prepare the functional specs document in which you require -
1)   A generation and activation of the customized table which consists of at least four columns -
     a)   Purchasing Organization;
     b)   Purchasing Document Type;
     c)   Material group/service group
     d)   Purchasing Document Creation Date
2)   A coding and activation of the related function module (You can use SMOD transaction to view the enhancement MM06E005 to view related user exit).
Cheers,
