Account Assignment on PO (K category)

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are implementing EDI for PO's.  Currently we use account assignment, category K (cost centers) to enter surcharges such as freight, fuel, etc.

My question is, is there an EDI PO segment for Account Assignments, or do you have to use condition types?

We're thinking we have to use condition types, but I'd like to confirm that.

Thanks and regards,

Judy Ortscheid

Hi Judy,

E.g. the standard IDoc types PORDCR1xx (message type PORDCR1) have the account assignment information.

Thanks Raf.

This is exactly what I was looking for.

It gives us another option besides condition types.

Hi Dibyendu,

We will be sending our Purchase Orders to our vendors via EDI/IDocs.

We will also be receiving the invoice via EDI.

The surcharges must be on the PO and GR for the 3 way match when the invoice gets posted.

Thanks for the MM Pricing Procedure that you referred to.  It is very useful.

My question has been answered by Raf, but again, thanks for your response,

Sincerely,

Judy

Oh! So it is outbound you are talking about! Then I doubt there's standard program to generate PORDCR1. There's only inbound routine for this message type.

You will have to develop yourself the routine that populates all the segments that you need. Maybe the BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL can be of some help.

Hi Raf,

Yes, we will be sending the PO's to the vendors and receiving the Invoice back (eventually).

We were told about two user exits: EXIT_SAPLMRMH_014 and EXIT_SAPLMRMH_015.  I believe that the second one is used for posting to the GL Tab in MIRO.

We'll take a look at the BAPI you suggested and see if that would be helpful.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Judy

Electronic Data Interchange - EDI is used in invoice verification process.

It is nothing related to enter surcharges in purchase order.

Account Assignment is used to specify the object which will be charged in the case of material direct consumption.

If you explain your scenario little more, then it will be much better to suggest anything.

If you want to enter surcharges in purchase order, then simply use condition types in pricing procedure. Checkout the blog post
