dynamic product proposal

[Former Member]

i'm trying to use dynamic product proposal for a particular customer. but when i goto create sales order, under edit, display range, product proposal (active <>inactive) is suppressed, meaning i can't choose it. how would i activate this?

also, could someone guide me through dynamic product proposal step by step, i think i might be making a mistake somewhere.

thanks!

Have you activated Dynamic Product Proposal for your Document Type?

Follow this:

IMG - Sales and Distribution - Basic Functions - Dynamic Product Proposal - Assign Document Procedure for Product Proposal to Sales Document Types

Here maintain the Dynamic Product Proposal to your Sales Document Type.

Also you dont need any config setting if you are using SAP standard settings. Just activate the Dy. Product Proposal for your Document Type & it will work.

Hope this helsp...

Hello

In sale order go to Edit ->Propose item, Here you need to mention the item proposal number

Dear Friend,

Go to your Customer Code (XD02) - Sales Area View -

In the Feild "PP cust. proc." Etner - A (Product proposal)

This will solve your issue...

i did that already but it's suppressed. i enter sold to party and hit enter. then goto edit ---> display range ---> product proposal (active/inactive) but i can't choose it because it's suppressed, i can see it but can't select it.

Hello

In a sale order go to Edit --> Propose item & not the path which you are following.

When you click on the propose item, one pop up screen will come.

Please provied the Item proposal doc number.

You will be diplayed with the items & qty (if it is maintained)

thank you

the path you're telling me (propose item) is for item proposal not product proposal. item proposal can be maintained in va51, but i'm trying to explore the functionality of product proposal and the only place i see that is in edit ---> display range ---> prod prop.

anyone?

also, i have a feeling my prod proposal procedure is not entered correctly. could someone help me with this procedure?

prod prop is still greyed out.

okay i figured it out. i was editing the proc in "maintain proc deter (in background)", when i was suppose to do edit the proc in "maintain proc deter (online)". if that helps anyone, there you go.

but i have one issue now, right now when i create an order, as soon as i enter customer, it proposes a few line items for material based on order history. however, i don't want it to be based on history, i want it to be based on ONLY item proposal that i have maintained in va51. anyone know how i can do this? what do i need to change in the proc for prod prop???

okay, figured that out as well. basically, you go into the action seq that you're using and in function module you enter: SD_DPP_PRODUCT_PROPOSAL because this is the function module included in the standard system for item proposal. and for source key, enter C for item proposal. should work now.

thank you!
