How to default source of supply in PR generated from PM order and having MPN associated?

[sunil_mundhe3]

Hell All,

we are planning to have MPN and wanted to default source of supply for PR's generated from PM order.

For Non stock item (also MPN is created) user will put requirement in PM order against Material and on release system generates PR, Now PR generated is not having source of supply and user need to click on button source of supply in PR change mode, can we default or automate determination process?

if yes how?

Thanks

Sunil

Dear,

User can assign the source of supply in PM order it self in "component details Purchasing data screen". This vendor will be populated in P.R.To populate automatically here,

if you maintain "Info record" system will pull the same vendor in PM order pop up screen of "component details Purchasing data screen".

Dear Pardhu,

1. Info Record cann't be created for own material. Inv. Managed material.

2. Source list cannot be created for MPN Material.

hence when PR generated from PM order having information like Vendor & Info Record will not have MPN & Fixed Vendor.

which we are looking to achieve if you have any Clue please let us know.

Thanks

Hi Pradhu,

while creating info record Getting this message -

Not possible to maintain info rec. for firm's own inv.-managed material xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Message no. MPN002

Diagnosis

Working with manufacturer parts has been set up in Customizing for Purchasing in such a way that only info records for the MPN material can be maintained.

However, you entered your firm's own inventory-managed material xxxxxxxxxxxx.

Procedure

Maintain the info record for the MPN material.

Procedure (system administration)

Maintain the info record for the MPN material or change the settings for the manufacturer part profile in Customizing for Purchasing if necessary.

about second part of your question - Non stock

- Material is stock item just wanted to procure one time by changing item category "L" to "N".

Thanks

Dear,

I got your point, but even for non stock item, which is actually stock item but for this maintenance order , if you want to procure as account assigned as F , still use Info record to pull the vendor.

For MPN materials,Kindly refer below links of SAP Help

Manufacturer Part Number: Functions - Purchasing (MM-PUR) - SAP Library

Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) - Purchasing (MM-PUR) - SAP Library

I have already gone through these links, problem here is when we configure Manufacture Part profile w/o info record check box ticked system does not allow to maintain different prices for MPN.

my only requirement is to get source of supply automatic and avoid click button assign source of supply in PR.
