Where to enter supplying plant during auto PO in migo

[Former Member]

hello,

I am creating automatic PO in migo with mvmt type 101. Auto PO indicator had been checked in MMR, VMR, PIR.

In migo with reference to PO, for non ordered items, i want to create auto PO.

But during final check, system is asking to enter ' supplying plant ' .

Can anybody tell where to enter Supplying plant. I am not using any STO.

Hi Diptanshu

Check the following path in SPRO... Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Define Default Values for Document Type

What document type is assigned to transaction MB01?

Hello Robyn,

That was it. UB ( STO ) was assigned. I changed it to NB ( PO ).

Now i removed the plant in vendor master. Still was able to post the document and automatic PO was generated.

Moderator message: I removed the "correct answer" for 2 reasons. This discussion is not yet closed as you continue to ask questions for clarity in this thread. Further you said initially ". I am not using any STO" hence making an assignment of vendor to plant cannot be the correct answer to the given parameters in the question.

You are of course allowed to mark the same answer with correct question, but then I would like to see an explanation so that future readers could understand this.

I agree with your opinion. I was also having the same doubt that how supplying plant can be assigned to a vendor if no STO is their.

Hi Diptanshu,

Apart from checking Auto PO indicator in Material Master, Vendor Master and Info \Record, you need to do the following :

Assign your plant to a standard Pur Org using OMKI transaction (this is must)

Activate Auto PO for your requireed movement type using transaction code OBJJ (in this case, 101)

Maintain Source List, Inforecord and Inforecord condition records for the material

During MIGO, you need to put vendor code  This would create the PO in background.

After completion of the process, the PO number would be displayed .

I am trying in MB01 also. Same error showing.

[former_member183424]

Is it the message number 06 098 ?

Can you test the same in other client or by changing some data like as material or plant or vendor..

[raviraj_sharma]

Is the Vendor "vendor1" assigned to a  Plant?   you can check this in  LFA1-WERKS   or  in Vendor master "Additional Purchasing Data" .

hello,

Yes. It is the same error. I had tried different vendors and material combination but still getting same error.

If you know the debug process, then please debug the program and check the root causes of the error message.

Also you will find if there are any custom development causes the error message.

May I ask , why you are still using MB01  and not MIGO?

There are several  Notes and documents on getting Auto PO through MIGO  .  one note 324517.

Hi Diptangshu,

In order to add plant to vendor, go to Purch Org Data in Vendor Master (XK02) -> Extras -> Add Purch Data. You would get the option of adding plant.

[raviraj_sharma]

Please do NOT assign the Plant!   I only asked my question to check if the plant was assigned  as it could be the reason  MB01 was asking for supplying plant assuming this to be some kind of Inter/intra company.

He cannot see it in his system, coz his account group has it hitten in field selection.

I had done it in MIGO also.

Just for testing purpose doing it in mb01

Plant field was suppressed. In OBD3, I made it optional and then made the entry.

Now SUPPLYING PLANT error is solved. But now I am getting another error. ENTER PRICE.

where to enter the price in MIGO ?

[Former Member]

Diptanshu,

I think that you need a valid info record, giving a price for the combination of vendor and material.

[Former Member]

This is the price mentioned in the info record.

Diptanshu,

Hmm...  I see that the info record is at the plant level.  Does that match the plant of the GR?

- Jeff

[Former Member]

Jeff,

Yes, the plant and material in info record is same used during MIGO.

I checked the settings.

All the automatic account postings are set properly. these entries already exist.

The Info record is created for the Standard Purchasing Org  which is assigned to the Plant in customizing right?

The  Info record must be for the  material +Vendor +Standard Purchasing Organization Combination. Conditions of the info record must within valid dates.
