While Creating PO its saying account assignment mandatory for the material.

Dear All
I have created a material with Mechanical Engineering as Industry sector and ROH as Material Type.
For this material i created PR and PO both the time it said account assignment is mandatory.
Why this happens?
I don't want to enter any account assignment category.
Pls help.
Regards
Depin

Hi,
Normally purchasing ROH with PO needn't to assign the account assignment category, but if don't create accounting view for the ROH material or create the accounting view without valuation class assigned, system can't find the relevant stock account automatically, so will issue the message just like "Account assignment is mandatory".
So you should check the material master data, if it's fine, then you will not see the message any more!
Good luck

  • Error while creating  a PO with Account assignment

    HI MM Gurus
    In our case, we need to create the STO for account assignment cat `Unknown`.
    In SPRO I maintained combination of account assign cat and item cat.
    Now, while creating  a PO with Account assign U we get Error message -  ME069 :Unknown account assignment not defined for use here.
    Please advise how to resolve this issue.

    Hi
    When you are posting actuals, you need to give true account assignment object. With U (unknown), system cannot identify which account to be posted. Change account assignment in PO to another.
    In standard SAP Unknown account assignment is not allowed in PO's. Only exception is Blanket PO.
    Unknown is allowed only in PR and Blanket PO.
    The reason is logically you are releasing the PO to the external vendor or Plant in this case you must know the account assignment.

  • Account assignment mandatory for material

    Hi,
    While creating contract i am facing this warning message..i can ignore this message , but what is the root cause for it.
    Error is :
    "Account assignment mandatory for material 100000040 (enter acc. ***. cat.)
    Message no. ME062
    Diagnosis
    There is no provision for value-based inventory management for this material type in this plant. Account assignment is thus necessary.
    Procedure
    Please enter an account assignment category"
    I checked Qty and value update in OMS2 also.
    It is maintained.
    Then what is wrong?
    Uts

    Hi,
    Account assignment determination depend on the valuation class. When your account assinged category is mandatory in that case go and see the account modifier assigned in account assinged category. After that verify the G/L account in OBYC for key GBB and account modifier and respective valuation class assigned in material master.
    If the entery does not exist then system will give you an error message.

  • A/C assignment category mandatory for the material

    Hi Gurus,
    I am facing the error message"A/c assignment category mandatory for the material" while creating a PO. How to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Kumar

    hi,
    For PO you can make the account assignment optional from:
    SPRO --> MM -> Purchasing --> PO --> Define screen layout --> Here choose me21 --> see the details....check in the basic data, item details....
    For the material type of the material , the qty n value update setting is:
    SPRO--> Logistics general --> MM -> Material type -->Define attributes of material type --> in it see for individual material type...
    Hope it helps.

  • How to assign account assignment category for a material

    Hi All
    I am creating a Purchase order .using tr code /nME21N
    I filled in the columns for materials, qty,deliv date,net price and currency .
    Now it is throwing me an error  "Account Assignment mandatory for each of the materials" (enter accnt asst category) .........
    My question is how and where should i do ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT for each of the materials i want to include in my PO ?

    Hi,
    The problem you mentioned could be due to one of the two reasons mentioned below:
    1) Material Master you entered is not extended (created ) for the accounting data view in MM01 for the plant you used in the PO line item
    2) It could be a warning message.  This message when you receive, you may double click the message which gives you a pop-up with details.  You may see the message number.  This message number can be controlled to warning or error or information type.  If warning or information type, you can still go ahead and create PO still bypassing that message.   In such a case, even if you have already satisfied by doing step#1, you may encounter message....

  • Account assignment Mandatory for material (Enter acc.***.cat)

    Hi all,
    Currently i would like to configure to have material with quantity update and no value update. so i create a new material type with reference to the material type -UNBW and i assign the material to this material type.
    During the time i creating the PR with the material above, it not allow and forcing me to enter the account assignment category.
    Kindly advise me what i have missing on this.
    Thank you.
    Kah Fei

    Hi,
    Yes, it will ask acc.***.cat, because it is the character of UNBW material type and as you copy from UNBW material type and created New one.
    Consumable materials with a material master record must also have an account assignment.Non-valuated material [Material type UNBW, This type of { low in value }material is managed on a quantity basis, but not on a value basis] are coming under consumable material.
    Consumable materials are materials that are procured directly for an account assignment object.
    1. They are not managed on a value basis in Inventory Management.
    2. Examples of consumable material:
    Office material like pen, paper, text books – assigned to a cost center
    Computer systems, Water Purifier, Fire Alarm System – assigned to an asset
    3. The system automatically updates consumption for materials that have a material master record.
    Pl explore yourself on stock material and consumable material.
    Hope helpful and then reward.

  • How to maintain different account assignment group for a material

    One of our items in plant A was extended in B to use in an business scenario.
    Since the item was extended using the copy function every change
    made in A seems to affect our Item master in B . What governs this?
    Since the item is manufactured in A the Acct. assignment Group in
    Sales Org. 2 is set to 01 manufactured item, while for B it is a
    purchased item and so 03.
    Please let me know how to go a head with this.

    Hi
    As per standards and logics a material can be created only once in MM01
    In MM01 we create a material say pen under some organizational data and that includes plant, storage location,sales org,DC,warehouse etc
    If you are extending the same material to another plant the same can be done in MM01 with the new organizational data and after that if you hit enter you will get a message that the material is already created and extended to such and such data
    In that exept the basic data 1 and 2 many or most of the fields can be changed
    I have checked account assignment category in sales org data 2 can be changed
    Say for plant 1000 for material pen assignment category can be 01 and
    plant 1001 for the same  material pen assignment category can be 02  like that
    The extra keys for account assignment categories are defined in t code OVK5
    img-sd-basic functions-account assignment and costing-revenue account determination---check master data relevant for account assignment
    Relevant VKOA settings to be done
    Then based on plant (in sales order) diffrerent GL accounts will be picked
    So a same material with respect to the organizational data can have different account assignment categories

  • Purchase Requisition / Order: Account Assignment Category for material type

    Hi,
    When creating a PR or PO for one specific material I would like the system to propose a specific account assignment Category for this material. It shouldn't allow the user to change this account assignment category.
    Is it possible? How should I proceed?
    Thanks in advance.
    Luis.

    I dont think there is any standard procedure for doing this.
    My idea would be to use a user exit say EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 for PR and a similar exit for PO and code a Error message check for Material type and account assignment combination.
    For ex : EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 is a exit which is called during check in a PR . SO when the user enters a combination of Material type and Acc assignment u can check for the requirements.
