System messages for purchasing documents

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We've a requirement that a particular system message should be set as an 'Error Message' for a particular purchasing organization.

In SPRO>SAP Reference IMG>Materials Management>Purchasing>Environment Data>Define Attributes of System Messages>System Messages

For example, the requirement is to set the message 06 418 Can delivery date be met? (Realistic delivery date: &) as an Error message for a particular Purchasing Organization.

Is there a way to address this requirement?

Hi Ellen,

Attribute/System messages didn't have organizational level limitation. It will apply to all.

If you want to add the limitation based on purchasing organization, better to use BADI or EXIT, you mau consult with you ABAPER.

Supposed to be it is not to difficult tho.

Hi Ellen,

Your requirement of having the control of a message at a P.Org level should have to handled using BADI's/Exits depending on the purchasing document you are dealing with - it is because the message control in SAP as far as I know would not be specific to an Org element.

Yes, you are absolutely right, it cannot be set specific to an Org element. But I am looking for the option to fulfill this requirement.

By the way, this message is to be set particularly for purchase requisition/purchasing organization. Is there any BADI or Exit available?

Check if the following BADI is useful:

ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST

In standard, you can set a message as warning for one user and the same message can be error for another user . This is controlled by message version and user parameter MSV.

But there are no option for purchase organization. You can use badi ME_PROCESS_RFQ_CUST for requisition.
