Your Question is Not Clear.....

Any way you can Create Purchasing Group in OME4 Trxn code. There is no Big Configuration for this. Only you need to Maintain Purchase Group Name, (If Mail Id, FaxNo, Tel No etc)

If you Have Created Purchase Group as One of the Charecteristic in CT04 in Release Procedure. Then You have to Maintain Purchase Group Values in Charecteristic Values CT04 and in Release Strategy - Classification / CL20N so that the PR / PO is Subject to Release.

Thank you Ragu, particulartly for saying thank you to everyone who answered. That was very kind of you, considering the whole thread, as a whole.

I also answer such questions sometimes but only to provoke the question by challenging it or the answers, normally ...

It is sad how few people are capabple of independent thought. It is perhaps good to help people think independently by frustrating them (if that is what you are doing), but sometimes they do not use it anyway...

We are waiting for your next question! Make it a good one

Hi,

Purchasing group is created for the responsible buyer who has to negotiate with the vendor for purchase of required material for the assigned plant which in turn is assigned to purchasing organisation who is responsible for vendor negotiation centrally.

Purchasing organisation must to be assigned to the company code which is 1:many i.e: one purchasing organisation to many company code which is having one chart of account (INT). Also one purchasing organisation has to assigned to one plant only i.e: 1:1 (One purchasing organisation to one plant)

In IMG:

[IMG - enterprice structure - definition - material management - maintain purchase organisation.] - through this path you have to maintain(define) Pur organisation which in trun you will have to assign to plant or to company code as follows.

Also

[IMG - enterprice structure - Assignment - material management - assign purchase organisation to company code / assign purchase organisation to plant.

Hope this will suffice your requirement.

Please try and reply back ASAP.

Thanks & Regards,

HI,

In the below link you can define purchaing groups.

Spro-MM-Purchasing-Create Purchasing Groups

For the release stratergy you have to create a characteristic for purchase groups with CEBAN-EKGRP

CEBAN as cumminication structure and EKGRP as a field.

This characteristic should be incorporated in the class and this class should be assigned in the release stratergy. In CL20N you can enter the values of the purchasing groups according to the stratergies.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

Purchasing group is defind in Purchasing but it is not assigned to any org elements.

To reflect purchase group in release stragety you have to create purchase group charateristic & assing it to class.

Then define that value of purchase group in CL20N.

When ever u create PO with that purchase group then release strategy will be picked based on that.

Dear Raju,

IN SAP Purchasing group is not assigned anywhere.

You have to mention this purchasing group in purchasing view of Material Master so that it will be picked up during PR , PO etc.

hi

purchase grp is key for a buyer or group of buyers responsible for certain purchasing activities.

The purchasing group is:

o Internally responsible for the procurement of a material or a class

of materials

o The principal channel for a company's dealings with its vendors

this key u cant assign to ur enterprise structure

it is logically to be use

u can authorise the users for use of perticular pur grp

hope it clears
