GRN without material code

[Former Member]

Hi,

Our client has created a PO without material code.

In account assignment category,K is given and corresponding GL account and cost center given.

When we try to make GR,system accepts and posted the value to that partcular account.

(As far i know,if no material code is there ,we have to give D in item category for services, so that service entry sheet can be made)

Please advice.

Hi

If you want to create a PO without a material then you need to specify acct assignment category (say K, P,N etc) and short text for identifying the procurement, material group for defaulting the cost element (say GL account). When you do GR, system accepts.

Check default settings for material group to GL account in OMQW and consumption assignments in OBYC - GBB - VBR.

The process is correct.

Thanks

Thanks for ur reply.

We are giving K in account assignment category and in OMQW without assigning the Valuation class to material group too system accepts the GRN in the GL account which is assigned in PO.

Is this correct?

Please reply

Hi

Assigning of valuation class to material group in OMQW makes default GL account assignment in PO if we use a material group. If we do not maintain the settings, then you have to input GL account manually in PO. Hope you maintained WRX setting. Also check GBB - VBR assignment.

Thanks

Hi

Yes that is correct. For transaction KBS(for accnt.assigned POs) it happens even if valuation class is not assigned to material group .

grn will be done wrt po, if po is made without material code than gr will be done. see basically it works depending upon the combination b/w account assignment category and item category u defined in the custmization. hope this will help u.

Dear Friend

If account assignment category is K that is for Cost centre, so we can do the GR for that material.

please check is there any Item category, it can be "A" for asset.

when we do the GR system will pick the material as Assets, this you can check in item detail pane--> excise item tab. check the material type like Raw Material, Finished Goods or Assets.

System will allow you to make the GR.

and if we select as "D" category system will not allow you to do the GR, you have to do the service entry sheet.

Thanks

Hi Venkat,

For account ass cat K (Cost center), there will be material code or material description to be mandatory..

Either one of them you can enter for consumable items.

Same applies for external service also.

Hope it clears.

hi,

The above scenerio is ok in itself...

If you have to go for the services, then you have to provide the item catagory as "Services"...so that yes the system makes the path for the futher doc called SES service entry sheet...

If you don't want to go for the services, then there is no need to mention any item catagory...

Also if you use the material type DIEN then it can procured as per the normal material...

The G/L account will be either taken into account as per you enter in the G/L account field or from the material group linkage with the valuation class...and then this valuation class is used futher used for auto account determination...

Anything else revert back..

Regards
