Hi SAP Experts,

In Goods Receipt based on Purchase Order, standard document type used is "WE."  Can we use another document type for Goods Receipt based on Purchase Order aside from doc type WE? 

Thanks,

Matt

Hi,

Yes, but depends on business needs!

With one t.code not possible to do Goods Receipt based on Purchase Order with two different document types!

You can create new document type ZE for goods receipt in t.code: OBA7.

Have separate number ranges for ZE and WE  in t.code: OMBT

Use t.code: OMBA and  assign  t.codes to document type.

Assign t.codes :MIGO and MIGO _ GR to WE document type and t.code: MB01 to ZE document type and save.

The new document type ZE you can use for Goods Receipt based on Purchase Order  with t.code: MB01 ONLY.

Hi Bijay Kumar Barik,

Thanks for your quick response.  We have already created a new document type, number ranges, and have assigned the tcode MB01 to the new document type.  However, we need to assign a GL account for the Goods Receipt of the new document type.  We have created a new GL account already but when we accessed the transaction key WRX in Configure Automatic Postings (OBMW), it won't allow us to add a new GL Account. 

May we know how we can connect the GL account to the new document type Goods Receipt?

Thanks,

Matt

Hi,

The answer given to post Goods Receipt to new document type ZE based on Purchase Order aside from doc type WE.The above process is used very rarely,when there is a special business needs and later revert back to original setting with one Goods Receipt document type which is universal.

But now why do you want to post different G/L account and restrict a new G/L account to new document type?


What is your real business requirement?


Is your FI/CO team aware of what your doing and what about business team!

If you want to post separate G/L account posting based on plant to single tranaction key, then use diffrent valuation grouping codes based on plant.

Better explore about account determination process instead of confusing!

pl check exit LMR1M002

as seen from the documentation

"This customer.specific function module is called by function module MR_ACCOUNT_ASSIGNMENT. This is used for:

  • Posting a goods receipt for a purchase order
  • Posting an invoice in conventional Invoice Verification using transaction MR01
  • Posting an invoice in Logistics Invoice Verification using transaction MR1M

You use this function module to determine the GR/IR clearing account to be posted to, depending on the purchase order data.

The function module has the purchase order number (exit_ebeln) and the purchase order item (exit_ebelp) as the import parameters. The account grouping code is returned."

pl check whether a different GL can be posted to based on document type using this exit.

Hi Biju K,

We tried to simulate the settings that you shared with us:

""You can create new document type ZE for goods receipt in t.code: OBA7.

Have separate number ranges for ZE and WE  in t.code: OMBT

Use t.code: OMBA and  assign  t.codes to document type.

Assign t.codes :MIGO and MIGO _ GR to WE document type and t.code: MB01 to ZE document type and save.

The new document type ZE you can use for Goods Receipt based on Purchase Order  with t.code: MB01 ONLY.""

When we made a goods receipt for a Purchase Order, when we checked the Purchase Order tab under Item Detail, the short text column (leftmost part) has a doc type of WE and not "ZE" which is what we defined in OMBA.

Please help.

Thanks,

Matt

Hi,

Assign ZE to t.code: MB01 and WE to t.codes: MIGO and MIGO _ GR  by using TCODE: OMBA , click "Goods Receipt Document type" and save.


So now, when do goods receipt with t.code: MB01, the posting will be with ZE document type  and all other goods receipt in t.code: MIGO will have WE document type.
