purchase order without material master

[Former Member]

I wanna create purchase order for a material that does not have a material master record.

is it possible to create it without entering account assignment? because i wanna buy it for an storage location and an sloc does not have any G/L account

Hi

You need to show purchase cost in some GL account. System recognises GL account through material master or material group with account assignment combination. Without these two you cannot identify to which account postings should happen. Assign a valuation class to a material group in OMWQ and assign a GL account to valuation class in GBB - VBR for automatic picking of GL account in purchase order. However you can overwrite this GL account as per the requirement.

Dear Daniel,

Account Assigment or material number is mandatory for any PO.

Its general thing that ur purchase must hit any G/L Account through which u r going to book ur material.

Hi,

Its possible to create PR, PO without material master.Buyer can give the details of item in short text. So he can procure services or material. You may have to give material group too.

In this case, it will be must to give account assignment category.

No there is no possiblity for creating PO or PR without material master and Account Assignment Cat.

One is mandatory.
