Hello all,
Perhaps, you have faced or still face the same problems as described
below and can tell me how you resolved it:
Our distribution center can be used by multiple purchasing depts.
working with the same materials, but different stock categories.
Hereby, the purchasing org. is (normally) the same, but they use
different purchasing groups.
MRP does generate individually pur.requisitions for each stock
category. However, the pur.group gets defaulted from the material
master (see LJ3AMF8M, FORM versorgen_eban) and is therefore the same
for all PRs per plant/material combination.
Consequently, we face difficulties to control access and daily
operation (e.g. selection) with these PRs as we have to give all
pur.depts. authorization for the pur.group of the material master.
Hereby, we can not prevent that a pur.dept. does process PRs they are
not responsible for.
As far as I know there is neither a BADI at MRP nor at PR creation
available to change the pur.group or control authorization on stock
category level.
Right now, I am thinking about a modification of the FORM-routine
above.
It would be great if I can get feedback from the group
1) if you have faced the same problem and how you have resolved it or
2) if you still face this problem so that we can address this to the
AFS team for a cont. improvement.
Many thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Klaus Leisgang

Hello All,
short update:
I got great help from the AFS dev. team by creating a new SAP note 1563920
providing a BADI at AFS MRP.
Perhaps, this info is useful for you as well.
Kind regards,
Klaus
