Query about Manual Reservation for Maintenance Order Category 30

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a problem. Generally from Maintenance Order type PM01 under Order Category 30, when we give some materials requirement, SAP automatically generate reservation for those materials and take the GL as Consumable Item.

But in my case, that GL has to be changed depending on what perpose we are using the material. But Manual reservation is not allowed for the order category 30 and no GL can be changed for automatic reservation.

Can anybody suggest any way-out so that we can give our desired GL No. for the reservation for Maintenance order (say Order type PM01 under category 30 which is SAP internal).

Thanks in advance,

Satadal

To the best of my knowledge this is possible. To the best of my knowledge G/L account determination for every material happens after a series of checks are done internally by SAP. By checks I mean the sequence of steps as customized by the consultant in the configuration. Now at the end of the sequence if SAP has not succeeded in identifying a G/L account it will open up a tab in which u can manually enter the G/L account. For non-stock item you can anyway enter it.

I would suggest that you post this query in the MM forum also.

thanks

Thanks for your help. I checked that the account is determined from OBYC transaction with a combination of GBB (A/c Key) and VBR (A/c Modifier).

But problem is even if I delete the account in the determination place, the system is unable to determine the G/L account but not providing the place for manual entry.

Can you suggest something more on it.

Thanks
