  • FIELD SELECTION KEY

    Hi,
           I have a query regarding Field Selection Key.
    I want to know the difference between Field Selection Keys AKTH, ME21, and ME21N.
    I have observed during Testing that, AKTH and ME21N are almost the same.
    But, I like to know the difference.
    Which is to be used when?
    Please give suitable suggestions in this regard.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,
    Go through following information.
    Field selection key: -
    You should not delete the field selection keys listed below, which the dialog program uses for control purposes, otherwise the dialog may terminate during processing:
    1. Field selection key: transaction
    The field selection key that corresponds to the transaction code: for example, field selection key ME22 for the transaction "Change Purchase Order". For the Enjoy Purchase Order transactions (creating, changing, displaying), there is only field selection key ME21N.
    2. Field selection key: activity type
    Is set from the activity type as follows:
    AKTH    In creation mode
    AKTV    In change mode
    AKTA    In display mode
    AKTE    With PO extension
    You should note that you can also add items in change mode (for example, transaction ME22). Field selection key AKTH would be used for this item.
    3. Field selection key: purchasing document type
    The field selection key that you have assigned to the document type for the purchasing document. For example, field selection key UBF is assigned to document type UB, which is used for stock transfer orders (within a company code). In this key, the fields Price and Price unit are suppressed.
    4. Field selection key: item category/document category
    This is determined from the item and document categories as follows: The first two characters consist of the letters 'PT', the third character of the item category (internal representation), and the fourth of the document category:
    A   for RFQs,
    B   for purchase requisitions
    F   for purchase orders
    K   for contracts
    L   for scheduling agreements
    Accordingly, field selection key PT3F would be used for a subcontracting item in a purchase order.
    Field selection key: function authorization/release status
    Purchasing documents: Used for authorization control. If the user parameter EFB (function authorizations in Purchasing) has been assigned and a field selection key has been assigned to the relevant value, this field selection key is used. Otherwise, field selection key $$$$ is used if the user has insufficient authorization to display prices.
    Purchase requisitions: If the purchase requisition is subject to a release strategy and a field selection key has been assigned to the current release indicator, this field selection key is used.
    Field selection key: subitem/creation indicator
    Purchasing documents: Is only used in the case of subitems. The field selection key is put together in the same way as for the item categories (field selection key 4), with the string 'UP', the subitem category, and the document type.
    Purchase requisitions: the field selection key that is derived from the creation indicator in the purchase requisition, that is, ESTV, ESTF, or ESTD, is used in the case of purchase requisitions generated from within Sales and Distribution, from a production order, or through direct procurement.
    5. Field selection key: purchase requisition
    In addition to the available field selection keys, you can define a field selection key at function authorization level to influence the input characteristics of fields in the Enjoy Purchase Requisition.
    You can use this field selection key to set up groups of users that have certain restrictions when editing purchase requisitions.
    SAP Recommendation: -
    SAP recommends that you accept the settings defined in the standard system. In this case, no action is required on your part.

  • Field Selection Key In Release Indicator For PR

    Hi,
    Can you explain what is the use of Field Selection Key in Release indicator for PR on what basis to select this value.
    regards,
      zafar

    Hi
    Field selection key   directs which  values can be changed after the relevant release indicators have been set
    Eg suppose you want to supress the field for PR after first release indicator has been set you have to assign the relevant field selection key to Release indicator
    you can assign the same to the release indicators in
    spro-mm-Purchasing -PR-Procedure with classification-set up Procedure with classification-release indicators
    you can set the field selection key in
    spro-mm-purchasing -PR- define screen layout at document level

  • Free PO indicator in field selection key/group

    Hi all,
    I would like to make Free PO indicator as mandatory field in PO thru specific document type field selection reference key. When I search for the field, it is not available for existing field selection key (Field selection group).
    How can I add the Free PO indicator into this field selection key/group or Does it represented in different name.
    Kindly clarify.
    With regards
    Suddy

    Hi,
    "Free Indicator" doesn't exist in field selection. If you wanto to have Free Indicator ON for a specific PO Document Type then you need to do ABAP Development for this.
    Use BAdi --> ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST
    Interface --> PROCESS_ITEM (Processing of Item Data)
    Below is the Sample Code for your reference;
    If w_bsart EQ 'ZPOD'.
        wa_item3-repos = ' '.
      ELSE.
      ENDIF.

  • Field Selection Keys related to Purchase Order

    Hi,
           I have a query regarding Field Selection Key.
    When we go to Field Selection Screen connected to Purchase Order, we can find so many Field Selection Keys viz., $$$$, $$$2, AKTH, ME21N, etc.
    How to judge which is to be used when?
    I like to know how these Field Selection Keys are linked to Purchase Order Screen in the background.
    Please guide me in this regard by giving proper suggestions in this regard.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Karthik,
                        Thanks for your valuable information.
    I like to know few more things.
    1) Is it possible to create our own Field Selection Key?
    2) If you observe the list of Field Selection Keys related to Purchase Order Screen, you can see that there are Field Selection Keys by name ME21N, ME21, AKTH, etc.
    If the Field Selection Keys are predefined by SAP, it is OK. But, if there is an option to create our own Field Selection Key, then what is the procedure to do the same?
    It seems that ME21N, ME21, and AKTH are used for Create Purchase Order Screen.
    There are also keys ME22N and ME23N used for Change Purchase Order Screen and Display Order Screen.
    I am little bit confused about this.
    We are linking the Field Selection Keys to the Document Types.
    But, I think it is only for create Purchase Order Screen. Please correct, if I am wrong.
    Also, I like to know how we are linking the Field Selection Keys related to Change Purchase Order Screen and Display Purchase Order Screen?
    Please clarify all my doubts by giving proper suggestions.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Use of field selection Key.

    Hello
    I am implementing  the release strategy for the Purchase requisition. can anyone please tell me what is the significance of "Field selection key" and "Value change" under the release indicator.
    Regards

    Dear,
    In the standard system, SAP will not allow changes to the quantity, unit of measure, or price when an approver is executing the release
    transaction. If you require that other fields, such as delivery date, plant, etc., not be modified via the release transaction, this field selection key is useful.
    Field selection key: If you want to allow certain fields to be changed during or after a release, you can modify the Field Selection Key. To modify the Field Selection Key, follow the menu path in the IMG: Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Requisition >
    Define Screen Layout at Document level. Once you have created a custom field selection key, you should create a custom release indicator by maintaining a new entry in the u201CCreate Release Indicatorsu201D screen.
    It is also possible to configure the release to not be restarted if the amounts have only changed a specified percentage. To do this, enter u201C4 - Changeable, new release in case of new strategy or valueu201D and a percentage in the u201CValue chgsu201D field.

  • Where do you assign the Applicant Acknowledgement letter in E-Recruiting?

    Hi All,
    Where do you go to assign the applicant acknowledgement email correspondent letter in E-Recruiting?  I want to be able to choose which applicant acknowledgment letter I wish to send to an applicant when they apply to a job.
    Additionally, what if you had two applicant acknowledgement letters you wanted to choose between sending when an applicant applies?  i.e. one for applicants wanting to become employees and another for say interns where the working in the letter may be different.
    Thanks!

  • Where to find "Define field selection for Individual approval view" in ECC5

    Hi,
    I'm trying to find where I can configure the columns for the managers approval view in the backend in ECC5.
    Time sheet>Setting for all user interfaces>Approval procedure>Approve working times> Define field selection for Individual approval view, doesn't appear to exist.
    Any help appreciated.
    Rob

    Rob,
    Try this:
    IMG->Integration with Other mySAP.Com Components->Business Packages/Functional Packages->Manager Self-Service (mySAP ERP)->Working Time->Approve Working Time->Define Field Selection from Individual Approval View
    Alternatively use SM34 and go to view cluster VC_PT_FIELD_SELECTION and enter the screen area as CTS.
    Hope this helps. Good luck.

  • Where do you create a Selection Criteria TOKEN? (Crystal Reports, SAP B1)

    I have downloaded "How to Work with Crystal Reports in SAP Business One" and read where it mentions "tokens" (starting on page 19).  I followed the directions and created a New Parameter in a Crystal Report with the name of
    BPCode@Select distinct CardCode from OCRD where CardType = "C"
    as directed on page 21 as an example of a token.  OK, so now I have a parameter with a very long name that doesn't do anything when I run the report in standalone Crystal Reports connected to our SAP B1 application.
    At what place in the "Create New Parameter" dialog box in Crystal Reports do you actually enter this information?  Nothing in that dialog box seems appropriate for SQL expressions.  Reading through SCN threads, I could not find anything that addressed this simple question.  What am I missing?
    NOTE: I do NOT have the CR Add-In available to me in SAP B1.  I cannot get it to install.  All of my work is done in standalone Crystal Reports and all reports are then imported from there.  I am a CR developer with less than 1 month experience with SAP B1.
    Thanks.

    OK, so I imported an .rpt file as a "report" instead of as a layout and placed it in a known module location (though the options were extremely limited).  I had no idea where to go to run the report, but under "Modules", "Reports", and the location I just imported to, I found and chose the report.
    The next step was a dialog box with two blank prompts and a third blank prompt asking for a particular field value from a table in the report.  The actual Crystal report has only two parameters (good ol' DocKey@ and ObjectID@).  I have to actually look at a known document in B1 and enter the values for the parameters before I get an actual result.
    Now, more questions...
    If there is a token in this report process, where is it?
    Why would I run a report this way when it's going to ask me the DocEntry and ObjectId numbers which are not known to me unless I do research (Actually, what you don't know is that all of the reports I've created are revisions to marketing documents, so I haven't created anything new or unique to B1 that would involve complex analysis).
    I spend almost two hours a day scouring the SCN to figure this stuff out and am still lost.  I haven't read anything anywhere that describes this process in an adequate fashion.  If SAP makes BOTH B1 and Crystal Reports, why not make the connection between them seamless and user-friendly?
    Gordon, if you're listening, you'd probably do well writing another book on this subject!!

  • Where do you find your license key for software that I get from the cloud?

    I am trying to upload some presets for lr 5 and I can't without the license key. Before when you bought tangible product this key would be on the back. However since I got it from the cloud, i don't know where to find it. Any help

    You mean, LR is asking for it's own licence # when you try to upload some presets?
    It sounds strange to me...
    Open LR, then from the software preferences, go to the "Presets" tab and click on the "Show Lightroom Presets folder...".
    Copy and paste your preset there and restart LR... it should be do it.

  • Where do you find the license keys?

    Hello,
    I need to find the license keys for Dreamweaver installed on my users computers. Can you point me in the right direction? I looked in help- About Dreamweaver. I retrieved the credit list.
    These are CS6 licenses not Creative Cloud.
    Thanks,
    Tammy

    I logged in and viewed all registered products. We've uninstalled these license as employees have left and installed them on new employee work stations. I am trying to find out if we can see the license key on the end user's work station. It's a reconciliation project as we need to track the license keys more closely.
    Any other thoughts?
    Thanks!
