Subcontracting PR, PO, query.

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am facing one issue as

1) Subcontracting Info Record is created for X plant and Y P.Org, Material Z and Vendor W.

2) Source List For Vendor W and material Y is Ticked for Fix vendor and type 1 for MRP.

3) Material master MRP view updated with Procurement type F and special procurement key 30.

4) After Sales order creation MRP run is not creating Subcontracting PR. so the next steps PO and GR are not done with Subcon process...

As per my understanding i have missed some configuration settings.

Please suggest how PR with Item Cat L is not getting created automatically.

Thank you

Possibly you might have missing item category link which is required for auto creation of PR from sales order.

Hi,

Please brief me. where I need to link sales order item cat with Subcontracting PR ?

As presently say suppose i am having 100 materials in system, ZXX Itm Cat used in Sales order common for all, but still only 90 materials shows Subcontracting PR and 10 materials are not showing Subcontracting PR.

For all materials I compared the master data one by one for difference in them, but i found nothing.

Thank you

Hi,

Sales order stock has item category E and subcon has item category L its not possible to map both item categories (i.e. special stock categories ) in one go

Thanks

Sales order stock has account assignment category E and not item category as E. Subcontracting for sales order stock that is account assignment E is very well possible.

Yes Diwarkar, but i have not commented on a third party scenario but about subcontracting with sales order stock which is possible.

Quoted from SAP help

Subcontracting is also possible in conjunction with sales order stocks and project stocks. The subcontracting orders are account-assigned to a sales order or a WBS element. Thus, the components are not transferred (using a transfer posting) to the "stock of material provided to vendor" but are directly withdrawn from the sales order stock or the project stock at the time of the goods receipt. The material manufactured is also posted to the sales order stock or to the project stock. The cost of subcontracting is then debited to the sales order or WBS element.

Not sure if this is relevant but check if you have BOM created for Parent item?

Hi,

Thanks for your query.

But BOM is already maintained correctly..

For few other materials its creating correct PR with Item Cat L.

please suggest more.
