Third Party with item cat group NORM

[Former Member]

Hi!

I've created a material X with item cat gr NORM. Now I'm creating a standard order with type OR. I don't have the material X in my plant and want to go through third party process.

I've done the following-

Maintained Purchasing and MRP views

OR + NORM + TAN + TAS

Could someone please guide me further as to how to create a third party order.

I'm getting the error "Material X not maintained by purchasing" Mesg no. ME046

Thanx

Sunny

HI,

I Think you are trying to do third party Manually , Do the procedure as below

- Create a material with Purchasing View , Keep item category Group as NORM .

- In VOV4 assign TAS as Manual item category .

- Raise the sales order with material you have created and quantity , Replace the item category TAN with TAS and Save the Sales Order and go to VA02 .

- In VA02 go to schedule lines and copy the Purchase Requisition number and Raise the P.O .

Thank You,

hi

We can do third party sales Item category group with BANS as well as NORM.

we need to Maintain Purchase group in Puchasing view in Material master.

Do item Category Determination in VOV4.

OR-NORM-TAN-TAS, Here TAS as Manual Item Category. So we Can Change the Item Category in Sales Order as Manually then It'l Prapose the CS as schedule line

From Schedule line(CS) the System will Prapose Purch Req in Sales Order, Schedule lines.

If we do not want to change the Item Category in Sales Order then the Schedule prapose became Standard.

OR-TAN -CP or CN. Here by Chage Schedule Line Controls also Purchase Order as NB and by removing movement type also we may get Purch Req. But it is not Right Practice.

Set up Copying Cintrols inbetween

Hi suryaz ,

--I think you have not selected the purchasing view option for your material.

--Go to MM01 & select the purchasing view for the material which you want to do the Third Party process.

--In purchasing view give the purchasing group.

--Change the item category group as BANS in Sales Org2 tab & save it in MM01

--Do the item category determination in VOV4

Sales docItem category groupDefault Item category

ORBANSTAS

--Now raise the sales order VA01 & enter the material default the item category will be TAS.

Let me know if your problem is solved.

Hi,

I hope you have maintained or Created Material withu2013 Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".

In addition Item category is u201CTASu201D, and Schedule line category is u201CCSu201D

Please check the Item category determination. Then compare your process if the flow is on par with the link below or not.

If you have maintained as per the above information. I am sure you would not come across any problem.

Maintain item category group BANS it will populate TAS automatically and extended your material in purchase view in MM01 transaction.

Extend the material master for purchasing views (using MM01) and check again.
