Urgent,please help me!

I checked the system message type.And I detected there is no 06 249 set in the system.I also tried to insert a new system message "00 06 249",and set the category to "W".But it doesn't work.I wonder if there is a good way to solve such problem.
Thanks in advance

Answer:
Hi,

This problem could be related to the field Closed ( EBAN-EBAKZ ). You can find this field by double clicking on the PO item. in the MRP data.

The help on the field is as under :

Purchase Requisition Closed
Flags a purchase requisition as closed, that means that no further purchase orders are to be created for this purchase requisition.

Use
You can:

Set this indicator manually
In change mode for a purchase requisition on the item detail screen
When you create a purchase order with reference to a purchase requisition
Have the system set the indicator when automatically creating purchase orders from purchase requisitions
You can use the indicator Set reqs to "closed" to specify that the purchase requisition is considered closed once the associated purchase order has been created, even if the complete requisition quantity has not been ordered.

Hope this helps ..

Thank you.
But now,
1. I can not detect the indicator in the MRP view.Which view can I see in the material master.
2. I checked the purchasing requisition and detected the "close" indicator was not selected and graied out.Hence I could not change the indicator.

Could anyone tell me how to solve?

But I can not change the "closed" status since it graied out.Also,I checked the table EBAN and detected the field was not set to "closed"?
Is there any other reason?

Answer:
Hi,

Could you please tell me the origin of the purchase requisition.

Select the item in question and go to statistics general. Here you will see Creation ind. ( EBAN-ESTKZ ). Can you please let me know what this is ? Is this by any chance "V" - Sales and distribution document ? or in other words how is the PR created ?

Hi,

Could you please tell me the origin of the purchase requisition.


The P.R. is created according to SO. The PO and P.R. item account assignment category are both "E Ind.Cust. w. KD-CD".
Users create PO with reference of this type of P.R. This type of P.R. has corresponding SO No. ,G/L account no. and CO area in the account assignment tab of the item detail
In the material master record the lot size is "Ex",MRP type is "PD" and the planning strategy group for MRP is "Make-to-order / no assembly order".
When users create PO with the reference of this P.R., they received such an error message: "Materials for PReq 10570780, item 00130, already partially ordered".

Answer:
Hi,

I am 100 % sure of this but I think, this error message is hard-coded in SAP. If you are on 4.6C, then have a look at MM06EF0B_BANF_SELEKTION

coding for

CASE retco.

.........
.........

WHEN 'V'.
MESSAGE e249 WITH eket-banfn eket-bnfpo.
..........


The retco is set to V in PERFORM bat_aufbauen, in cases where there is direct link between the PR and SO and if the PR is converted to PO ( even if partially.).

If this is a one of case in your system, I would suggest you to do the following.

Go to the Sales order, and change the SO quantity to match the PR. Then add a line to SO for the remaining quantity. This will create additional PR. Convert this PR to PO.

Alternatively, you can raise this to SAP as this looks like a bug.
Request you to keep me posted....

Answer:
Alternatively, you set the deletion flag in PO and then convert the whole PR to PO...

YDP123, Thank you very very much!
I have understand what you mean.In the past,I've asked the end-user to close the So quantity and create a new So.Then the system will create a new P.R. and the old P.R. will disappear.Alternatively,we can update the quantity and add a new item in the same sales order.
It's very kind of you.Thanks,YDP123
