hi,

pls tell me in third party how do system knows tht material is third party and why PR generate....and why we do PGI....

System know its a third party material by the item category TAS. We can do it by assigning BANS as the item category group for the material or we can manual item categories for regular items also. so that at the order level we can change say from TAN to TAS.

the schedule line is determined as you would know on the basis item category + MRP type.

So for TAS, the schedule line generated would be configured to generate a PR. We can also configure even an automatic purchase order for this PR or can also be done manually.

On the MM side,we can even assign an output type to the purchase order wihic triggers a copy at the vendors place and he can deliver the product to our customer.

And we dont do PGI in 3rd party just because its the vendor who is supplying the goods.

Thanks

i didnt get sir

we cannot and should not do PGR in 3rd party because the stocks are just not coming into the plant at all. Otherwise the goods posted would update the plant stock and valuation which is incorrect. They are going from vendor to the customer directly.

But just incase we want we can do a statistical MIGO.

thanks

hi rahul,

How system know its thirdparty material...

....item category group in material master record...BANS

item categeroy determination OR BANS -

---

TAS

Even we can change the std item as third party item in sales order manually by changeing item category as TAS from TAN.

for this we have to enter the TAS as the manual item category in item category determination

OR NORM -

TAN TAS

..In scheduleline category we enter Purchage order type from there Purchase requisition is created automativcally.

As we r not delivering the goods to the customer.. no need or PGI.

reward if helpful

Hi ,

Suppose if x ordered material to Y and Y is not having stock of material than y orders to Z.

In this case Z is the third party.

X and Y having some agreement in the supplying of material but Y is not having the material. Than Y orders thirdparty it means some other plant.

HI

The item cat <b>TAS </b>or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and, therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.

Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".

AND In item category we can set "automatic PO" so that PO and PR will automatically generate after saving the order.
