Hi,

Material price in PR picks from material master. Info record used for as souce on information on purchasing.From Info record, you can find last PO price & last PO{ME1L & ME1P} and material vendor relation.

Hi,

Info records are created specific to a vendor.But Purchase requisitions are created for internal purpose and not meant to be sent to vendors. So the price is taken from the material master.

And the PIR comes into picture on creating purchase orders.

Hi,

The price in purchase requisitions is not defaulted from the info records,

but from the material master records instead.

Also, you coul check the F1-on-line help of the field 'Valuation price'

(EBAN-PREIS) regarding this matter:

".- If a material master record exists for the requested material, the

price is automatically taken from the valuation price field.

.- If no material master record exists, you must enter a price when

creating the purchase requisition."

I hope this helps.

Hi

First thing is PR is an internal document and it only pick MMR price. Info record is for external document only

Hi Kalyan,

The PR will start taking the Price automatically (in Valuation Tab) once a PO is created in the system.While making a PO if you have info record check in Material Tab of Item details it will update every-time there would be a change in price as the Price is updated in the Material Master, provided you have maintained Moving Average Price as "V" and the Material is valuated for Stock.

Purchase Info Record is a combination of Vendor + Material and is maintained at Plant / Purchase Organization level.

Hope it helps,
