see in P.O user had given mat code & also the acct assign catog. so i need to know that in this case mat code & acct assign catog both are given so i think that to post the expenses only one thing should be there either mat code OR only acct assign catog . pl reply.
no it is ot awnsered yet as till now the user is not able to post MIGO.i also want to tell u that earlier user had made a Import P.O for this Mat code , then he had deleted this P.O & again created an Non CG indiginous P.O for this mat , so as i looked in P.R , here in status tab both P.O number are displayed , so is this old deleted P.O is creating problem in MIGO posting.
in item tab in P.O in confirmation tab user had selected confimation , but no any detail are maintainin confirmation, can u pl tell me tnhat when in which situation this confirmaion is selected, as i had similated in dev server i had removed this confirmation from P.O , so now Sysetm is allowing to do MIGO.
In procurement, it is quite normal that once a purchaser sends a Purchase Order to Vendor then he needs a response from vendor expecting some of the information as follows:
Receipt of purchase order by vendor
Acceptance of all the terms and conditions mentioned in purchase order by vendor
Expected date of delivery the goods
Expected date of goods dispatched from the vendor end
Transport confirmation and the shipping notification
And many more
So vendor confirmation is nothing but dispatching of this information to the recipient about the status of the purchase order. Once he has received this then there is a requirement of updating the respective purchase order.
This updating helps the planner to plan the materials more precisely because between the purchase order and planned delivery date, more reliable information has become available.
In Standard SAP, the term "confirmation" (short for "vendor confirmation") has been defined as an umbrella term for various types of information provided by a vendor to a customer, including order acknowledgments, loading or transport confirmations and shipping notifications.
For updating this information in PO, the consultant has to make the following setting in SPRO under the node Set up Confirmation Control:
To define confirmation categories, choose External Confirmation Categories or Internal Confirmation Categories
To define confirmation control keys, choose Confirmation Control Keys
To define the confirmation sequence, choose Confirmation Sequence
Once these settings have been done in SPRO, we have to assign the confirmation control key at item level in the purchase order under the tab page Confirmation. If we are not assigning this we may face error while creating inbound delivery on receipt of shipping notification. Apart from this, reference document for goods receipt will also be decided on these settings.
If there are more than one confirmation categories, then for all confirmation categories, consultant can also specify whether they are for information only or whether they are to constitute a basis for goods receiving and materials planning activities.
Hope this will help you in Understanding Confirmations.
