Delivery tolerances for goods receipt

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have SRM 4.0 extended classic scenario. I am trying to goods receipt a PO for more than the quantity ordered on the PO and it won't let me. I have set up the CF, PM, PR and PZ tolerances in SRM and I have set up the B1 tolerance in R/3. However I still get error message saying something like

"PU: quantity exceeded by X"

Can anyone shed any light on the reason for this?

Thanks,

Paula.

Hi Paula,

Did you set-up SRM tolerance key in PPOMA_bbp attribute ?

Can you confirm that the backend tolerance is less restrictive or equal to the SRM one ?

Kind regards,

Hi Yann

Yes I've set up the TOG attribute and the backend tolerance is the same as the SRM one... Have you got your system set up to allow for over delivery?

Thanks,

Paula.

Hi Paula,

Yes i have configured it in my system :

1- define DQ key in SRM (for example 50% overdelivery)

2- define purchasing key value in ECC

3- attached purchasing value in material master (purchasing view) or info record (material or material group)

4- create SC in SRM

5- ECC PO (classic scenario in my case) created.

If you go to delivery tab, the overdelivery % is filled from your material master or info record. (example 50%)

6- Create GR in SRM and test different quantity with check button : everything is ok

Hope this helps,

Kind regards

PS : i do not use the inventory management tolerance key B1...

Hi Paula,

I didn't test it so far but will try to avoid maintaining Info record in ECC.

I would like to just send from SRM the SRM key to ECC PO.

Should maybe feasible using badi in SRM to fill BAPI (OVER_DLV_TOL field)

If anybody can confirm this scenario...

Kind regards,

Yann

Hi Yann,

So if I am not using either material master or info record, the only way to fill the tolerances in R/3 PO is using a BAPI?

Thanks,

Paula.

Hi Paula,

Well right now, i do not know other solution.

Maybe someone has an alternative ?

Hi Yann,

Thanks for the info. We are currently using SRM contracts as a way to allow for delivery tolerances. I was hoping there was an easier solution.

Thanks,

you do not need to be using material masters.

i'll refine the steps mentioned by Yann:

1- define DQ key in SRM (for example 50% overdelivery)

2- define purchasing key value in ECC

<b>3- Assign purchasing value key to material group in ECC configuration</b>

4. assign TOG attribute

it should work then

Hi Suby,

how do you assign purchasing value key to material group in ECC configuration ?

Kind regards,
