Plant-independent Rounding Profiles not selectable in Quota arrangement

[Former Member]

Hi all

We need to assign static Rounding Profiles to Quota Arrangement records so they apply in the MRP run; rounding purchase requisition quantities depending on the vendor assigned according to the quota.

We have customized plant-independent static Rounding Profiles (where RDPR-WERKS = ' ')

Problem is: SAP is not letting us choose plant-independent Rounding Profiles in the Quota Arrangement (Quotas are plant-dependent)

The Plant field is auto populated by the system and is not editable in the help dialog / match code of the rounding profile field in the Quota Arrangement transaction MEQ1

If we enter a plant-independent static Rounding Profiles manually, the system issues the Message no. 00 058:

Entry &1 &2 does not exist in RDPR - check your entry

     &1: Plant

     &2: Entered Rounding profile

Shouldn't plant-independent Rounding Profiles be valid for all plants?

Please, help.

A possible workaround would be creating rounding profiles and then extending them to every plant, but this would be difficult to maintain.

Thank you.

Pablo

You can't use plant independent rounding profile in quota arrangement. Quota arrangement is purely plant dependent, hence system will search for the rounding profile for the specific plant only in RDPR table.
You can use the plant independent rounding profile in info record as well but not in quota arrangement.

Thank you for your input Dibyendu.

The question would be: why is the rounding profile plant-independent in some situations and not in others.

I found that the rounding profile search in info records was fixed with this note: 1467449 - Rounding profile is checked incorrectly

Personally, I consider this to be an incident.

The rounding profiles created without specifying a plant, should apply to Quota Arrangement , besides info records.
