Integration Stock Material settings

[Former Member]

We are currently on ECC 6.0 and would like to clarify the integration settings.

Based on SAP help Link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_pserv472/helpdata/EN/f0/ca5716260211d28a430000e829fbbd/frameset.htm]

There was a scenario for Concept 4 where the scenario was

Concept 4

Warehouse funds center: Additional budget assignments in goods issue to other funds centers

When you post purchase requisitions and purchase orders, the assigned values in the warehouse funds center are updated automatically like in concept 3.

When the goods are issued, the funds assignments remain in the warehouse funds center - meaning that the budget is not returned. The assigned values are updated for the funds center (consuming) entered in the goods issue expenditure item. The budget for the warehouse funds center is being used up in "parallel" to the responsibility areas.

The attached is the config settings:-

Customizing Settings

->Update profile 100

Path:- Funds Management Government IMG, under Actual and Commitment Update/Integration ® General Settings ® Assign Update Profile to FM Area.

->GR/IR updating: MM invoice receipt

->Controlling purchase orders/requisitions not assigned to an account:u201Dwarehouse funds centeru201D

->Controlling goods issue: "Stock allocation statistical"

Path:-Funds Management Government IMG, under Actual and Commitment Update/Integration ® General Settings ® Make Other Settings.

At the this part I can find this path but I cannot find the options to set :-GR/IR updating: MM invoice receipt and the rest of the options

->Transaction type budget relevant? X

-> Transaction type goods issue? X

In the IMG of Funds Management Government, under Actual and Commitment Update/Integration ® Integration ® Inventory Management Integration ® Select transaction types

At the this part I cannot find this path neither can I find the options to set

Hello,

These settings were made obsolete in ECC 5.0 (the help you link to in your message is from 4.7). Reading the release notes for ECC5.0 (http://service.sap.com/releasenotes ) it looks like this is all managed through the derivation rules with the option of assigning account assignments directly on a purchase order. Here is an extract from the release notes on how the process works from ECC 5.0 onwards (apologies for bad formatting):

30.1.6.9 Redesign of Funds Management Warehouse Concept (Changed)

Use

The main changes are as follows:

- The warehouse funds center and any other account assignment can be derived using the

derivation tool.

- The statistical indicator must be triggered using a statistical commitment item.

Effects on Customizing

The following customizing is now obsolete:

- The settings "Unassigned Purchase Orders" and "Goods Issue" in Funds Management

Updating Control (Transaction OFUP)

- The setting "Assign Warehouse Funds Center" (Transaction FMLF)

- The setting "Select Transaction Types" (Transaction OFBW)

To ensure full compatibility with the old functionality the derivation tool provids three additional

flags :

- FLG_INVNTRY_PSTNG : Indicates that the current posting is an inventory posting

- VAL_CLASS: Valuation Class

- MOVE_TYPE: Movement Type (Inventory Management)

The new concept must be installed as part of an upgrade project.

Some futher (possibly useful) of the release notes are:

30.1.6.3 Reference Funds Reservation from PR/PO Going Into Stock (New)

Use

You can now reference a funds reservation from a purchase requsition or a purchase order,

even if these documents use account assignment category space, meaning that the order is not

for direct consumption, but for inventory stock.

Effects on Customizing

You must customize the new field status for the object types 07 (stock purchase requisition)

or/and 08 (stock purchase order)

30.1.6.4 Field Status for PRs/POs Without Account Assignment Categories

(New)

Use

It is now possible to customize the Funds Management (FM) account assignment elements (and

funds reservations) for purchase orders (POs) and purchase requisitions (PRs) with account

assignment category space, meaning items that are not ordered for consumption, but which go

into stock.

This feature is only supported in the new transactions (ME2N and ME5N).

Effects on Customizing

This is optional. If you do not carry out this customizing and FM is active, all the available

fields are displayed as optional.
