Which of the following are prerequisites for flexible workflows for purchase order approval? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.

Create a class with flexible workflow characteristics for purchase orders

Define the recipients for the flexible workflow in the Manage W orkflows for Purchase Orders SAP Fiori app

Activate the flexible workflow for purchase orders in Customizing

Deactivate the classic release procedure for purchase orders in Customizing

Set up the preconditions for the flexible workflow in the Manage W orkflows for Purchase Orders SAP Fiori app

Explanation:

Flexible workflows for purchase order approval are a new way of defining and managing approval processes for purchase orders in SAP S/4HANA. Some prerequisites for using flexible workflows are:

• Define the recipients for the flexible workflow in the Manage Workflows for Purchase Orders SAP Fiori app, which allows you to specify who can approve or reject a purchase order based on various criteria such as amount, material group, or plant.
• Activate the flexible workflow for purchase orders in Customizing under Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Release Procedure for Purchase Orders -> Activate Flexible Workflow for Purchase Orders.
• Set up the preconditions for the flexible workflow in the Manage Workflows for Purchase Orders SAP Fiori app, which allows you to define the conditions that must be met before a purchase order is sent for approval. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4520, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

Which field can you use to prevent a discontinued material from being procured?

Material Status

Authorization Group

Control Code

Special Procurement Type

The field that you can use to prevent a discontinued material from being procured is Material Status. This field allows you to block or restrict certain functions for a material, such as purchasing, production, sales, etc. You can define different material statuses in Customizing and assign them to materials in the material master record. For example, you can define a material status that blocks purchasing and sales for a material and assign it to a discontinued material. This way, you can prevent any further procurement or sales of that material.

You have concluded a cleaning contract with a supplier for your operating facility. You aQreed on a monthly amount for which you want to automatically create a credit note every month. What do you usein this scenario?

Blanket purchase order

Scheduling agreement

Invoicing plan

Value contract

You use an invoicing plan in this scenario. An invoicing plan is a method of creating invoices automatically at predefined intervals or dates without referring to any service entry sheets or goods receipts. You can use an invoicing plan for blanket purchase orders or contracts that have a fixed amount and validity period. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4520, Unit 2, Lesson 1.

What does the account assignment category controling a purchase requisition or purchasing document item? Note; There are 2 correct answers to this question.

The type of account assignment object you must specify

The item categories you are allowed to use

Whether you can post a goods receipt

Whether you must enter a material in the purchase order

The account assignment category controls the following aspects of a purchase requisition or purchasing document item:

• The type of account assignment object you must specify, such as cost center, order, project, or asset.
• Whether you must enter a material in the purchase order or whether you can enter a short text and material group instead. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4520, Unit 3, Lesson 2.

What are some characteristics of a goods issue posting to a production order? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

Actual costs are allocated to the production order.

The goods issue can be posted as a backflush.

The reservation is deleted as a result of the goods issue

The goods issue can only be a planned goods issue.

A goods issue posting to a production order allocates actual costs to the production order and reduces the inventory of the issued materials. A goods issue can be posted as a backflush, which means that the system automatically issues the components that are required for production based on the bill of material (BOM) and the quantity produced. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4510, Unit 3, Lesson 1.

At what level do you maintain the purchasing value key in the material master?

Purchasing organization

Company code

You maintain the purchasing value key in the material master at plant level. The purchasing value key contains parameters that influence the purchasing process for a material, such as order unit, rounding value, minimum order quantity, and delivery tolerance. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4520, Unit 3, Lesson 2.

You want to set up the same account determination for raw materials (material type ROH) and operating supplies (material type HIBE). How can you group these material types?

Assign the same valuation class to the material types

Assign the same valuation grouping code to the material types

Assign the same account category reference to the material types

Assign the same account modification to the material types

The account category reference is a grouping of material types that have a similar account determination. By assigning the same account category reference to different material types, you can control that they use the same valuation class for account determination. The valuation class is a key factor that determines which general ledger accounts are posted during inventory transactions. Therefore, if you want to set up the same account determination for raw materials (material type ROH) and operating supplies (material type HIBE), you can group them by assigning the same account category reference to these material types. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Help Portal]

What can you control with a document type in purchasing? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.

Relerence to purchase requisitions

Confirmation control

Number range

Allowed account assignment categories

Item number interval

A document type in purchasing is a classification of purchasing documents (such as purchase orders, contracts, requests for quotation, etc.) that defines some basic characteristics and controls for each document. Some of the aspects that you can control with a document type are:

• Reference to purchase requisitions, which means that you can specify whether a purchasing document can be created with reference to a purchase requisition or not.
• Number range, which means that you can define the number interval and the number assignment (internal or external) for each purchasing document.
• Item number interval, which means that you can define the increment and the length of the item numbers for each purchasing document. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Help Portal]

Which of the following apply when using centrally agreed contracts? Note; There are 2 correct answers to this question.

You can maintain plant-specific conditions in centrally agreed contracts

You can use centrally agreed contracts in a procurement hub scenario.

You CANNOT specify plants in centrally agreed contracts.

You can use centrally agreed contracts without restrictions for any purchasing organization.

Centrally agreed contracts are contracts that are created by a central purchasing organization and can be used by multiple purchasing organizations within a company. Some of the characteristics of centrally agreed contracts are:

• You can use centrally agreed contracts in a procurement hub scenario, which means that you can leverage the central purchasing organization’s negotiation power and expertise to procure materials or services for other purchasing organizations.
• You cannot specify plants in centrally agreed contracts, which means that the contracts are not plant-specific and can be used by any plant that belongs to the purchasing organizations that are assigned to the central purchasing organization. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Help Portal]

Which organization assignment must NOT be maintained when setting up a cross-company-code purchasing organization?

Plant - purchasing organization

Reference purchasing organisation - purchasing organization

Plant_purchasing group

Company code purchasing organization

When setting up a cross-company-code purchasing organization, you do not need to maintain the assignment of plant to purchasing group. A purchasing group is an organizational unit that is responsible for the day-to-day purchasing activities for one or more materials or services. A purchasing group can be assigned to one or more plants, but it is not mandatory. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4500, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

Which of the following steps can be part of a subcontracting process? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question

Post subsequent adjustment of component consumption

Create a sales order for components to be provided

Invoice the subcontractor for consumed components

Create an outbound delivery for components to be provided

Purchase components for direct delivery to the subcontractor

A subcontracting process involves sending components to a vendor who provides a service and returns an assembled or processed product. Some steps that can be part of this process are:

• Post subsequent adjustment of component consumption, which means that you can correct the actual quantity of components consumed by the vendor after receiving the finished product.
• Create an outbound delivery for components to be provided, which means that you can ship the components from your plant to the vendor’s location using the shipping functionality.
• Purchase components for direct delivery to the subcontractor, which means that you can order components from another vendor and have them delivered directly to the subcontractor without storing them in your own plant. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4520, Unit 4, Lesson 1.

Spirt the quantity received to multiple storage locations.

Post partial order quantity.

Maintain a valuation price.

When you post a goods receipt to stock with reference to a purchase order, you can perform the following actions:

• Split the quantity received to multiple storage locations, which means that you can distribute the goods receipt quantity among different places where materials are physically stored within a plant.
• Post partial order quantity, which means that you can receive multiple partial deliveries for the same purchase order item. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4510, Unit 2, Lesson 1.

Exchange a card with another card accessed by the same CDS view

Filter the contents of all cards according to a specific supplier

Use your user settings to define which cards to show and hide

Use the drag-and-drop functionality to rearrange cards

Define your own layout and save it as a tile on the SAP Fiori launchpad

The Procurement Overview app is a SAP Fiori app that provides an overview of the procurement activities and key performance indicators. You can personalize the app by using the following options:

• Filter the contents of all cards according to a specific supplier, which means you can narrow down the information displayed on the cards based on a supplier name or number.
• Use your user settings to define which cards to show and hide, which means you can customize the app layout by selecting or deselecting the cards that are relevant for you.
• Use the drag-and-drop functionality to rearrange cards, which means you can change the order and position of the cards by dragging and dropping them on the app screen. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Help Portal]

What are some key features of the SAP Smart Business key performance

indicator (KPI) tiles used for purchasing analytics? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this

Insight to Action provides drilldown capabilities and appropr iate actions.

When a tile is changed, the database is updated in real time.

Smart controls such as smart filter and smart charts are available.

Smart alert thresholds can be set to update the tile display at different intervals.

The SAP Smart Business key performance indicator (KPI) tiles are interactive dashboards that provide real-time insights and analytics for purchasing processes. Some of the key features of these tiles are:

• Insight to Action: This feature allows the user to drill down into the details of the KPI and perform appropriate actions based on the analysis. For example, the user can view the purchase requisitions that are overdue and create purchase orders for them directly from the tile.
• Smart alert thresholds: This feature allows the user to set different thresholds for the KPI values and change the color or icon of the tile accordingly. For example, the user can set a red alert if the purchase requisition-to-order cycle time exceeds a certain limit. The tile will display a red icon and notify the user of the critical situation.

Split the quantity received to multiple storage locations

Post the quantity received to quality inspection stock

• Post a goods receipt for part of the order quantity, which means that you can receive multiple partial deliveries for the same purchase order item.
• Post the quantity received to quality inspection stock, which means that the materials are subject to a quality inspection before they can be used or sold. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4510, Unit 2, Lesson 1.

How can you completely block a material for procurement in a plant? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

Create an entry in the source list with a blocking indicator and NO supplier

Create a quota arrangement entry with a quantity of zero

Use a relevant plant-specific material status in the material master

Create a blocking entry in the supplier master record

To completely block a material for procurement in a plant, you can use the following methods:

• Create an entry in the source list with a blocking indicator and NO supplier, which means that you prevent the system from finding any valid source of supply for the material in the plant.
• Use a relevant plant-specific material status in the material master, which means that you restrict the procurement transactions that are allowed for the material in the plant. For example, you can use material status 01 (Procurement blocked) to block all procurement transactions. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4520, Unit 3, Lesson 2.

Which field controls the creation of a scheduling agreement with release documentation?

You can use agreement type LP (Scheduling agreement with release documentation) to indicate that you want to create a scheduling agreement with release documentation. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4520, Unit 5, Lesson 1.

Your MRP run detects a shortage of 2000 pieces for a material with an active quota arrangement. Each of your two suppliers can only supply 1000 pieces at once. What must you maintain to have MRP generate a procurement proposal for 1000 pieces for each supplier? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

Set a maximum lot size in the quota arrangement item and activate the lx checkbox

Assign a rounding profile in the material master record of the planned material

Set a maximum quota quantity in the quota arrangement item for each supplier

Assign the indicator for quota splitting to the lot-sizing procedure being used

To have MRP generate a procurement proposal for 1000 pieces for each supplier, you must maintain the following:

• Set a maximum lot size in the quota arrangement item and activate the lx checkbox, which means that MRP will split the total requirement quantity according to the quota allocation and create one procurement proposal per quota arrangement item.
• Set a maximum quota quantity in the quota arrangement item for each supplier, which limits the total quantity that can be procured from each supplier within a validity period. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4525, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

What are some key features of purchase-orde r-based invoice verification? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

The system proposes the total delivered quantity as the quantity to be invoiced.

The system proposes the quantity to be invoiced as the difference between the total delivered quantity and the total quantity already invoiced.

Partial deliveries for a purchase order item show up as individual items in the invoice document.

Partial deliveries for a purchase order item are NOT flagged as individual invoice items.

Purchase-order-based invoice verification is a process of verifying and posting an invoice with reference to a purchase order. Some key features of this process are:

• The system proposes the quantity to be invoiced as the difference between the total delivered quantity and the total quantity already invoiced. This ensures that you do not pay more than what you have received.
• Partial deliveries for a purchase order item are NOT flagged as individual invoice items. This means that you can post one invoice for multiple partial deliveries of the same purchase order item. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4515, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

When creating an invoice with purchase order reference, which options are available for the automatic posting of unplanned delivery costs? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

The costs can be distributed among the invoice items.

The system determines a freight clearing account for posting the costs.

The costs can be posted to a separate account.

The costs are posted automatically in a separate invoice .

When creating an invoice with purchase order reference, unplanned delivery costs can occur if the invoice amount exceeds the order amount. These costs can be posted automatically by selecting one of two options in Customizing: distribute costs or post to separate account. If distribute costs is selected, the costs are distributed proportionally among the invoice items according to their net value. If post to separate account is selected, the costs are posted to a separate general ledger account that is determined by account determination. The other options are not available for automatic posting of unplanned delivery costs. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Community]

Which field in the material type controls whether a material is used in the lean service process?

External Purchase Orders

Field Reference

Item Category Group

Product Type Group

The product type group in the material type controls whether a material is used in the lean service process. The lean service process is a simplified procurement process for services that do not require a service entry sheet or an invoice receipt. You can use product type group 3 (Lean Services) to indicate that a material is used for this process. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4520, Unit 4, Lesson 1.

What data does the system require to determine the safety stock during automatic reorder point planning? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.

Service level

The storage costs code

Mean absolute deviation

Minimum and maximum stock levels

Replenishment lead time

To determine the safety stock during automatic reorder point planning, the system requires the following data:

• Service level, which is the probability of avoiding a stockout situation during the replenishment lead time.
• Mean absolute deviation, which is a measure of the forecast accuracy based on the historical consumption data.
• Replenishment lead time, which is the time required to procure or produce a material. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4525, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

You use quota arrangements. You include a new supplier in an existing quota system. How can you ensure that the new supplier is considered as if they had been part of the quota arrangement from the beginning?

Manually update the quota

Manually update the quota-allocated quantity

Manually update the source list

Manually update the quota base quantity

The quota base quantity is the total quantity of a material that is to be procured over a certain period of time from various sources of supply. The quota arrangement specifies how this quantity is to be distributed among the sources of supply. If a new supplier is added to an existing quota arrangement, the quota base quantity must be updated to reflect the new situation. This way, the new supplier will be considered as if they had been part of the quota arrangement from the beginning. The other options do not ensure this, as they only affect the existing sources of supply or the source list. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Community]

You enter a supplier invoice for a purchase order that has already been delivered.

Apart from the purchase order itself, what can you use as a reference?

Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

Delivery note

Goods receipt

Bill of lading

Inbound delivery

When you enter a supplier invoice for a purchase order that has already been delivered, you can use the following documents as a reference:

• Delivery note, which is a document issued by the vendor that confirms the delivery of goods and contains information such as delivery date, quantity, and weight.
• Goods receipt, which is a document posted by you that records the receipt of goods from a vendor and updates the stock and inventory data. References: SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning, Course S4515, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

Where can you enter a rounding profile? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

Source list

Lot-sizing procedure

Purchasing info record

Material master

What can you create to plan materials differently within a plant?

Vendor consignment info records

Production supply areas

Storage bins

You can create MRP areas to plan materials differently within a plant. An MRP area is an organizational unit that represents a separate area of material requirements planning within a plant. You can use MRP areas to plan materials according to different criteria such as storage location, subcontractor, or sales area. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4525, Unit 1, Lesson 1.

Which of the following prerequisites must be met for the system to check the shelf life of materials at goods receipt? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

The purchase order item contains the remaining shelf life.

The total shelf life is maintained in the purchasing info record.

The shelf life expiration date check is activated for the material type in Customizing.

The shelf life expiration date check is activated for the movement type in Customizing.

To enable the system to check the shelf life of materials at goods receipt, you must meet the following prerequisites:

• The purchase order item contains the remaining shelf life, which is the minimum number of days that a material must be usable after goods receipt.
• The shelf life expiration date check is activated for the movement type in Customizing, which means that the system will compare the remaining shelf life in the purchase order with the total shelf life in the material master and reject the goods receipt if it does not meet the requirement.

There are multiple company codes and plants in your SAP S/4HANA system.You have set the valuation area to plant level. How can you reduce the effort to configure account determination?

You can use the valuation grouping code to group together plants assigned to company codes ^ with the same chart of accounts.

You can use the valuation grouping code to group together plants assigned to company codes ^ with different charts of accounts.

You can use the account grouping code to group together plants assigned to company codes ^ with the same chart of accounts.

You can use the account grouping code to group together plants assigned to company codes with different charts of accounts.

You can use the valuation grouping code to group together plants assigned to company codes with the same chart of accounts. This reduces the effort to configure account determination because you only need to maintain one set of valuation classes and account assignments for each valuation grouping code instead of each plant.

Account assignment in SAP Purchasing (MM) – FAQ

This note provides answers to frequently asked questions regarding account assignment in purchasing documents. This post is based on Snote 496082.

Table of Contents

FAQ: Account Assignement in SAP Purchasing

Account assignement : g/l account for a sales order.

Question: Why is the G/L account for a sales order with nonvaluated individual sales order stock different from the account with valuated indivi dual sales order stock?

Answer: See Note 458270.

Multiple Account Assignment in Purchasing

Question: Can you create several assets at the same time in the new purchasing transactions?

Answer: You can create several assets at the same time. However, you must first ensure that at least as many account assignment lines have bee n created as the number of assets that you want to create. You can do this very easily using the copy function.

G/L Account is not saved if switch to a material group

Question: You create a purchase order with account assignment using transaction ME22. You enter a material group, from which a G/L account is de termined using the valuation class. If you then switch to a material group that does not determine a G/L account via the valuation class, the system deletes the previous G/L account and prompts you to enter a G/L account. If you cancel the account assignment screen and change the material group back on the item detail screen, the previously determined G/L account is not determined again. Why is this ?

Answer: Unfortunately, this system behavior cannot be changed. First, enter any G/L account, so that the item is valid. If you then switch to the old material group again, the system also determines the correct G/L account again.

Entering the same account assignments for different items

Question: Is there an easy way of entering the same account assignments for different items in the new EnjoySAP transactions?

Answer: Ensure that Note 315676 has been implemented in your system and follow the procedure described there

Repeat account assignment function not work in the new EnjoySAP

Question: Why does the repeat acc. assignment function not work in the new EnjoySAP transactions when you create new account assignments in multiple acc. assign. ?

Solution: Use the copy function in multiple acc. assignment to create identical account assignment lines. You can use the repeat account assi gnment function to create similar account assignments for different items with the same account assignment category. To do this, proce ed as described in the answer to question 4.

Issue message KI 161 “Cost center &/& does n ot exist on &

Question: When you change the account assignment of an existing purchase order, why does the system issue message KI 161 “Cost center &/& does n ot exist on &” ? The same phenomenon occurs for other account assignment objects (for example, profit center).

Solution: Refer to Note 193371.

Can you create assets from the single account assignment screen?

Solution: Assets can only be created from the multiple account assignment screen (“Account assignment” tab). You can switch between single account assignment and multiple account assignment on the “Account assignment” tab page by clicking the icon above on the left.

Why does the system not display an account assignment tab page even though you have entered an account assignment category?

Solution: After you have implemented Note 520149, the account assignment tab is not displayed until all the required information is available, for example, the company code.

Why are account assignment objects derived in some situations, even though the relevant field on the account assignment tab page is hidden?

Solution: Refer to Note 619203.

ME 453 “Changing consump. or spec. stock indicator not allowed

You create a purchase order with reference to a subcontracting purchase requisition. This purchase requisition was created with an unknown account assignment, that is, account assignment category “U”. When you change the account assignment category in the purchase order, the system issues error message ME 453 “Changing consump. or spec. stock indicator not allowed (subcontracting)”.

Solution: See Note 205597

Select a valuated goods receipt together with multiple account assignment

Why can you not select a valuated goods receipt together with multiple account assignment in a purchase order or purchase requisition?

Solution: See Note 204252.

EBAN-FISTL, -GEBER, -KBLNR, -GRANT and -FKBER (as in table EKPO) empty

Funds Management is active. Why are the fields EBAN-FISTL, -GEBER, -KBLNR, -GRANT and -FKBER (as in table EKPO) empty? Solution: These fields are only filled if the account assignment category is set to “blank”. If you maintain an account assignment category in t he purchasing document, the system adds the information from these fields to the EBKN table (as in EKKN).

AA 334 “You cannot post to this asset (Asset & & blocked for acquisitions)

You try to change a purchase order item with acc. assignment category “A”, which contains a locked asset. The system issues error message AA 334 “You cannot post to this asset (Asset & & blocked for acquisitions)”. Solution: This is the standard system design. To make changes to this purchase order item, you have the following two options:

a) If you no longer require the purchase order item with the blocked asset, delete the purchase order item. b) Otherwise, you must activate the asset, make the required changes to the purchase order item, and then block the asset again.

The indicator for the account assignment screen

Question: What is the meaning of the indicator for the account assign. screen that you can set in Customizing for single account assignment/m ultiple account assignment? Solution: The indicator determines which account assignment screen is used by default for maintaining the account assign. for a purchase orde r item. For the EnjoySAP transactions, this value is simply a proposal that you can change in the purchasing document. For the old transactions, this value is the only one that you can use.

Question: Is there an unknown account assign. for standard purchase orders?

Solution: This is generally not allowed, and the system issues message ME 069 “Unknown account assignment not defined for use here”. There is an exception in the case of service items that are created with item category D (service) or B (limit).

Acc. Assignment check is not performed when Purchase Order is updated

Question: You change data in a purchase order item (for example, purchase order value, delivery date, and so on). Why does the system not perform another acc. assignment check?

Solution: This is the standard system design. When you created the purchase order item, if the system already checked the acc. assignment and there were no errors, another acc.?assignment check only takes place if you change a field that is relevant to account assign.?(for example, quantity, material number, and so on). If this system response does not meet your requirements, implement the account assignment check in the BAdI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. The BA dI is called each time the purchase order is changed.

“In case of account assignment, please enter acc. assignment data for item”

Question: If you delete all the account assign?lines that were entered in the account assignment screen, the system exits the account assign. tab page and goes to the material data. In addition, the system issues the error message “In case of account assignment, please enter acc. assignment data for item”.

Answer: In the current system design, if you delete all the account assignment lines, the system assumes that you do not want to maintain any account assignment data. This conflicts with the account assignment category and the system issues error message 06 436. You can then remove the account assignment indicator. Procedure: If you want to delete all the account assignment data that was entered, see the answer to question 24.

Third-party order processing (CS) and individual purchase order processing (CB)

Question: Which account assignment categories should you enter in schedule line categories for third-party order processing (CS) and individual purchase order processing (CB)? Solution: See Note 210997.

G/L Account is not transfered from Valuation class

Question: In a blanket purchase order or blanket purchase requisition with account assignment, you subsequently change the material group. Even though the new material group is assigned to another G/L account via the valuation class, the system does not redetermine the account assignment for the relevant item. The old G/L account remains.

Solution: See Note 449216.

Customizing Account assignment fields as required entry, optional entry, or display fields

Question: In Customizing, you can set the, or as completely hidden fields, depending on the account assignment category. These settings also determine whether the system deletes or retains the values for the account assignment fields when you change the account assignment category in a purchase order item.

Answer: In Customizing for materials management (MM), when you maintain account assignment categories (IMG: Materials Management-> Purchasing -> Account Assignment-> Maintain Account Assignment Categories), you can control the different account assignment fields as follows: Required entry: You must make an entry in the field, otherwise the system issues error message ME 083.

• Optional entry: Entry in this field is optional.
• Display: The field is displayed, but it is not ready for input.
• Hidden: The field is hidden. Example:

The acc. assignment category is K, the cost center is an optional entry field and it is filled with the value 1000. You change the acc. assignment category to P. Subject to the field settings for the cost center for the acc. assignment category P, the system response is as follows: The cost center is a required entry or an optional entry field: The system transfers the value 1000 for the cos t center.The cost center is a display field: First, the value 1000 for the cost center is deleted. If the system can determine a value again after you enter the changed acc. assignment category, this value is transferred. The cost center is a hidden field: The system deletes the value 1000 for the cost center.

System ignores the acc. assignment data of the purchase requisition for the second schedule line.

Question: You create a purchase order item assigned to an account with reference to a purchase requisition. For this purchase order item, you create a second schedule line with reference to another purchase requisition. The system ignores the acc. assignment data of the purchase requisition for the second schedule line. Solution: This is the standard system design. The system does not generate multiple acc. assignment in the purchase order item, even if the t wo referenced purchase requisitions are assigned to different CO objects. Refer to Note 47150 for the old transactions and to Notes 422609 and 771045 for the EnjoySAP transactions.

Undelete an item in a purchase requisition if assignment data is no longer valid

Question: Why can you undelete an item in a purchase requisition if the corresponding acc. assignment data is no longer valid? Solution: When you undelete an item in a purchase requisition, the system does not perform a new acc. assignment check. Therefore, the accoun t assignment data is not checked again. Nevertheless, errors occur if you try to create a purchase order with reference to this purchase requisition. When you undelete an item in a purchase order, however, the system does perform another acc. assignment check.

Transfer of Acc. Assign. with Reference Document

Question: You create a purchasing document with reference to a reference document. What account assig. data is transferred? Solution: The acc. assignment data is derived from the reference document. If you delete the acc.?assignment category and enter it again, a new automatic general ledger account determination takes place.

Question What is the correct procedure for changing acc. assignment data?

– If, for example, you want to change the acc. assignment category: Note that you MUST first delete all existing acc. assignment data for the relevant item. You can do this by initializing (deleting) the acc. assignment category and confirming by choosing ENTER. Following this, you can enter the new acc. assignment category and the relevant acc. assignment data.

– If you want to change acc. assignment data for the relevant item: For example, you want to change the main acc. assignment objects such as cost center, G/L account, sales order, network, or WBS ele ment, and so on. Here also, we recommend deleting all existing acc. assignment data by initializing (deleting) the account assignme nt category and confirming by choosing ENTER.If you are working with contracts, you must delete the acc. assignment line on the acc. assignment screen and enter a new line t o ensure that the data is derived correctly again. You MUST NOT change the current settings. For example, in some circumstances, the requirements type (OVZH) or the valuation of the requirements class (OVZG) is changed after th e purchasing document is created. This can cause errors in a valuation of goods movements (goods receipt, for example) and MUST BE AVOIDED.
