Confirmation Control Work Flow in Purchase Order

Hi Gurus,
   Can anyone explain me about the Confirmation Control Tab Work Flow in Purchase Order.
   If i select the Conf. Control in Purchase Order, next what process has to follow?
   Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Prabhakaran M

Hi Prabhakaran
The Confirmation Control tab has a field for selecting the COnfirmaiton control Key for the PO Item. This key Determines which confirmation categories are expected for a PO item (e.g. order acknowledgment, shipping notification).
There are four categories delivered in the standard system, which decides whether you need only a ASN for a PO Item, or ASN with a rough GR, or Rough GR only etc.
Once you have this key set up, system expects you to create that document for this item before you process the GR or Invoice.
You can also set up automatic ASN creation if you have EDI Integration with the vendor.
Benefit of ASN is that you ve the confirmed delivery dates and quantities well in advance and warehouse/Inventory team can plan their operations accordingly in advance...
I hope this clarifies your questions

Work flow for Purchase requisition

HI EXPERTS,
   I am new for MM workflow, my client asked me to overall purchase requisition approval through work flow,i did configuration like
    BUS 2105 -OBJ TYPE
    WS20000077-RECIVER TYPE
    RELEASESTEPCREATED-EVENT TYPE
    AND ASSIGN AGENT ALSO.....
   its working fine,and i get messages but my problem is i didnt release pr from inbox,
   again i used me 54n for release .is there any chance to release pr from in box,,,
   and also how to change time in time stamp column,i am getting wrong time please help me...
   Thanks in advance
Thanks,
siva

You need to verify that there is a teminating event. A terminating event works so that if you perform the action outside of the workflow inbox, the linked work item is "logically deleted" from the user inbox.

Work flow for Sales Order

Dear All,
How a Work flow in SD to be configured .
I need is to create a workflow in SD .whenever a Sales Order is created by some user.First the workflow will check if the sales order value is greater than Rs.50,000 or not.If yes it will go for the first level of approval to authority1
By logging into the workflow the authority1 should know he has to approve that sales order.
if not it simply sales order should be ready for Delivery otherwise itshould be blocked.
If the sales order value is between Rs.50000 & Rs.100000 the approval has to go to authority2 approval in the workflow.
Can anyone worked on the similar lines.
I am waiting for the reply on this
Regards
AK

Hi,
Create a new "Z" table for storing the values with the below fields.
Process Code
Credit control area
Customer Credit Group
Customer Credit Group
Credit Levels
Net Value of the Sales Order in Document Currency(From)
Net Value of the Sales Order in Document Currency(To)
Position
Position
Position
E-Mail Address
E-Mail Address
Credit Levels
Billing block has to be assigned automatically once the order has been generated.
The positions will be created by HR team.If the Sales order values falls with in this range,then a workflow will be triggered to three approvers whose values will be maintained in the table.A workflow will be triggered for these members.
You can create value range for the credit levels.
A Z program will be required for this requirement.

Krishna.

Regarding work flow for credit block release in sales order

Dear Experts,
Kindly help me with work flow-
my scenario is if customers credit limit of 5000$ exceeds in sales order it should be blocked and notification should go to authorize person through simple mail to release this block.
for this i have done settings in out control i have used output type krml and determined partner as employee responsible to release block in customer master but mail is not triggered to authorized person for credit block and how i can create work flow for this so that authorized person should get notify for credit block as well he releases block also.
Regards
Supriya

Dear supriyaparimal,
Please find the below points to fix your issue.
1. Configure the out put determination by using the condition type KRML.(Hope oyu have done it already).
2.Maintain the condition records in VV11 for condition type "KRML"
3.Then select the condition record and click the communication tab .
4. If you want to give any information you can use "Note for recipient".
5. If the information has to be sent to relevant person you recipient name in the recipient column.
Save the documnet.
If you raise the sales order and if it is blocked then system automatically send the information to respective person.
You can get this in formation in ""SBWP" transaction code.
Check the in box, the information what you have mentioned in the condition records will be appeared.
Please let me know if you have any clarifications
Thanks&Regards

Use of SAVE_TEXT in customer exits / BADI for purchase order

Hi All,
I am trying to save some long text by using SAVE_TEXT function module in a badi implementation for purchase order header text. The same is working fine if i try to update the PO header text via a report. But if i try using badi (the code is written in a PAI event for the BADI), then though the text transfer and save is successful during the code excution, but for the first time when i add any text its not visible in ME22N tcode. Since its an online event. But when i double click on that editor and the sap script editor gets opened. then i press back button, the text is appearing on the same small screen edtor . after this any number of time i edit or delete text, the save_text function module works fine.
My issue is why for the first time always i have to double click on the editor to open the sap script editor. I have also included commit_text in this case after save_text FM.
the requirement here goes like this. in one tab for PO header the user will enter some number (This is a customizing screen implemented through badi.) and the corresponsing discription should appear when user clicks on text tab in po header screen (me21n / me22n).
Kindly help.
Thanks

My guess, is that this material is not really maintained in the Plant '1001', to be on the safer side, get the exact values from EKPO itself, also check if this material exists in the table MARC for the plant and storage location.
MOVE '1001' TO gm_item-plant.   "<< Hard coded
MOVE '' TO gm_item-stge_loc.
Replace the above hardcodes to something like this to get the actual value from EKPO.
select werks lgort into (gm_item-plant, gm_item-stge_loc) from ekpo
   where ebeln = gm_item-po_number
        and ebelp = gm_item-po_item.

Hi
If you use Shipping notification then you have to create inbound delivery VL31n and do the PGR in inbound delivery VL32N itself.
Incase of scheduling agreement schedule lines you have to make sure the following
1) Schedule line delivery date shoud be todays date or in the past
2) Schedule must be released by using message type based on the type of schedule ( Normal, JIT or forecast)
Hope it helps
Thanks/Karthik

No goods receipt possible for purchase order 4000010123 00001

Hi Experts,
I created PO with 100 Qty then create GR with 20 Qty with mvt type '101' .
then I am doing Return PO with 20 then I am creating GR with Reference to return PO with 161 movement type through BAPI 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'.but it giving error as 'No goods receipt possible for purchase order 4000010123 00001'.
but manual it is working fine and creating GR.Please let me the reason.
I am unable post GR for first time with fresh return po.but second time after manual posting.i am able to do it.

Hi,
have you compare the data you send to bapi with data recorded in GR (mkpf/mseg) tables by the system after manual document posting?
I would check it first - here usualy is the diference between manual and bapi document creating that causes problems.
hope it helps
