Hi,

You need to try with t.code ME21N itself.

Use t.code: ME21N- Click Document overview on and then click  Selection variant  -now select Contract and next screen enter contract number

Hi Team

1. I tried out all the 3 options already. Just would like know why the Create with Reference was not appearing under Purchase Order tab. Wanted to understand whether any setting is required for the same.

2. When I create the PO against the contract with all the three options, the price field is enabled, and system is accepting even if we change the price.

3. My requirement is I created two P Org (STER, SMPR), and assigned STER as ref pur org for SMPR. and also assigned plants to Ref Pur Org. And when i created a contract with Ref P Org (STER), the system asked for co code, I entered one of the co code here.

4. Now I wanted to release a PO for one of the plant through normal P Org -SMPR. And when I create the PO through Contract, the data from the contract are adopted, but the price field is not locked. also when i change the P Org to Normal P Org, the system overwrites the price from InfoRecord. Pl suggest.

Hi,

You have multiple questions here

1.What and where you wanted reference- the screen shows you are already created PO from contract where in PO you can find contract number appearing

2. Yes when your are creating PO from contract , the price will pick from contract to PO but in your case- if you are able to change price in PO which is in the settings of condition type PB00. You can cross check with t.code M/06 for condition type PB00 where price change allowed check box selected. If you do not want- you can remove check box

3. While copied all data should copy- just try again.

4. Contract created for a purchase organization and while creating PO from contract- why should you change the purchase organization?

For overwrite prices from info record in purchasing document- you need deactivate info record effect in purchasing document with t.codes OMET, OMFI and SU01. Refer how to deactivate

Hi Bk

1. Yes, I created on PO against this order already during checking.

2. I checked the condition type PB00, (attached the screen shot of the m/06 setting). (even now the net price in PO is appearing in editable mode)

3. Since contract was made in Ref Pur Org, release order to be processed by the normal Pur Org, that is the reason why I changed the P Org.

pl guide

Hi,

   There is no such option to create with reference to contract as of my knowledge. Regarding the price change in release orders, please check in SCN, there are lots of discussion!

Hi Biju

I have done the changes in teh PB00, but still Net Price field is in editable mode, and if I change the price, the condition PB00 price is also getting changed in the condition tab.

Attached the screen shot for your ref.

Hi,

   One option would be to make the net price field as non editable in the field selection for document type and then maintain the condition type PB00 as "not possible to process manually". In this case, you can not change the price in any case where PB00 is triggered.

   Also refer the thread:

   We had a similar requirement for service contract and it was achieved in standard with the method explained in the doc: - You may check whether the concept can be adopted in your case as well.

Dear Willington,

You can make the field price not editable in the PO with steps below:

-Ta: SPRO:

MM-> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Define Screen Layout At Document level

Let say choose: '$DE1' as Field selection key

Field Selection Group:Choose Quantity and Price

Field Label: Set 'Price and price unit' to display

-Then in transaction OMET, Unchecked the 'Indicator: Enter/change conditions' check box and fill

in the Field selection key as set previously($DE1).

-Assign the parameter EFB with transaction SU3 to the user profile which use to create the PO.

Dear

Are you using ME21N tecode for this, Please use u will get the below mentioned screen.

See the mentioned below screen shot in this regards

Hi,

   There is no such option as of my knowledge. You may check the below options:

1. Use the search for reference documents from the document over view screen as shown below:

2. Other option would be from contract display. Go to ME33K - open the contract and go to menu - Contract - Follow on functions - create contract release order.

3. Another option would be to enter the contract number and item number in the PO - item - Outline Agreement field.
