Hi,

Try using Framework order (FO) for blanket PO.

You can see it above the header condition.

For standard PO, document type NB is used.

Hi,

Try this way -

Check the configuration of U- unknown account assignment cateogry for its settings, if some one has changed...

Materials Management>Purchasing->>Account Assignment>Maintain Account Assignment Categories

compare the validity of the options active in the above configuration, with that of Item Cateogry B-Blanket Item. You can not change anything in Item category configuration but, the config for Account assignment category should be valid for the settings of B.

In my system, it doesn't give error as you mentioned and U has the config details as below:

X-Account Assignment Changeable Consumption posting U Distribution -Blank

X - AA changeable at IR ID Account assignment screen 1

X - Goods Receipt X - Invoice REceipt...

Remaining all blanks...

If you see any different config for U in your system, try to set this way and post your feedback.

The configuration of U-Unknown is same as your mention.

And still got the same error, I use IDES 4.7, company 1000,

it's standard from SAP, I did not change anything.

any suggestion ?

Thank you.

Hi,

Account assignment category U cannot be used in Purchase order or scheduling agmt. You can use account assignment categoy U in contracts and Purchase requisitions.

This is SAP standard.

I believe account assign U is working in PO,

I have ever tried it at my friend system, and it worked perfectly.

I just look at spro " define external represenattion of item categories",

i found that ,for item category B, under IR conrtol field, IR indicator is checked for 'Firm in PO' and for invocie recipt field , PO item linked is unchecked.

I think it should be check, but I am unable to change it.

any body know what is the file / table name for item category,

I tried to see the help and technical but it show only the data structure but

not transparan data.

Please help !

Thank again.

Hi,

Account assignment category U can be used in PO for services procurement D. It is working fine for me and my system in ECC 5 and is regular working system not IDES. Interesting!

In delivery tab in item details of your PO, what are the check boxes you see selected?

on Delivery tab-page :

only 2 field as check box

goods receipt and GR non-valuated

none of then was check / nothing was check.

another file :

Reminder1, remander2, remander3, no.reminders, plnd dely time,

latest GR date, QA control key and Incoterms

all of those field blank except no.reminders 0.

Hi

For Blanket PO with item category , there is no requirement of giving the material,

This is the process for creating Blanket Po.

Document type FO (if Validity is required ) or NB

Give the vendor & organisation details.

Enter the Acct asignment category U, Item category B

Material short text, Material group if doc type NB.

Overall limit & expected limit & then save the PO

Invoice recipt indicator is in display only.

Thanks & Regards,

I did exactly the same that you said.

I use standard PO, no material, just material short text, give vendor,

organisation, Assignment U, item category B

Overall limit, expected limit, invoice receipt indicator is display only,

when hit save button or check button give me an error

Indicator for invoice receipt used not allowed

How do I know document type FO or NB ?

(I use standard PO).

any idea ?

Thank you

hi

enter the matarial, the header details.press enter. then go to the item details and remove the invoice receipt indicator.then enter the account assignment and the item category.

u wont get the maggage.

else u can go to the matarial master and remove the indicator for invoice verification for that matarial.then the indicator wont be defaulted.

Thank you sir,

I did the header and detail, but couldn't change invoice receipt indicator since it is display only, item category 006, and this is item category B, with account assignment U,

so I don't have material master, this this limit or blanket purchase order,

Would you guide me further ?

thank you again.
