Hi,

It can be achieved, if you have a specific access sequence is defined for the combination:

Material/Vendor/plant/Freight vendor

In the following path:

SPRO --> IMG --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Conditions --> Define Price Determination Process --> Define Access Sequence

And then assign the sequence to the condition type:

SPRO --> IMG --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Conditions --> Define Price Determination Process --> Define Condition Type

But remember, if you need the condition to be picked only from MEK1, then you will have the set following indicator as shown:

The Manual entries indicator will block users from manually entering the data in the Purchasing Documents for this condition type. Hence this is required as a mandatory entry.

And then assign it to the Calculation schema.

Hi Narendra,

Freight vendor is not there in the condition table because it need to be entered during creation of PO. It is not possible to trigger a condition type on the basis of freight vendor. The reason is, first freight/insurance condition type will trigger based on the condition records and then freight vendor is need to be maintained for the triggered condition type.

I think, you want that freight vendor (different to supplying vendor) should be automatically get assigned to the freight and insurance condition types.

No need to create any new access sequence as this can be achieved in the existing condition records.

Go to MEK1 and create condition record for material/plant/vendor combination. In the condition record creation screen, select the condition type and click on tab. This will take you to the details. Here maintain the 'Freight Vendor' in the vendor field and save the condition record.

Now, create PO and you will find the 'Freight Vendor' (which is maintained in the condition record details) is automatically defaulted in the freight condition type. If required user can change this defaulted freight vendor during creation of PO as this is more practical.

Hi,

Better maintain condition record Material/Plant/Vendor combination in t.code: MEK1,so that all condition types with respective condition value will be  defaulted during purchase order creation.But regarding freight vendor which is same vendor code for some scenario as main vendor but some other scenario vendor code of freight vendor is different from main vendor, so you need to select respective freight condition type---- go to details----and enter freight vendor ( but at the same time , you should have condition category :delivery cost  for freight condition type in t.code: M/06).Refer below how to enter freight vendor in during purchase order creation.
