Study Notes

Material Management

Assign the same account category reference, valuation class, valuation grouping code, and account modification to material types.

Spend Analysis

Off-contract spend is a key performance indicator (KPI) that provides information on purchase orders without a contract reference, despite an existing contract being available.

Situation Handling

Situation templates exist for a supplier confirmation pending and a contract ready as a source of supply.

Production Planning and Product Costing

Organizational level for stock valuation is controlling area, business area, company code, or plant.

Contracts and Invoicing

Automatic credit notes can be created using the SAP Fiori launchpad for a cleaning contract with a supplier.

Purchase Orders and Messaging

Automatic account determination is critical for transactions such as transfer posting between stock types, stock transfer between company codes, goods receipt into blocked stock, purchasing info record price change, and material price change.
The condition technique for message determination requires the Price and Quantity fields, dispatch time set to 1, and the New Message Determination Process for Change Messages indicator flagged in Customizing.

Purchasing Info Record

Conditions in an already created purchasing info record can be updated automatically using an invoicing plan.

Stock Transport Order

Advantages of a stock transport order compared to a stock transfer posting between two plants include issuing from inspection stock, creating stock transport requisitions via MRP, planning delivery costs, posting goods receipt in consignment, and posting goods receipt to consumption.

Invoice Verification

Blocking reason Quality may be set for an item in an invoice if goods-receipt-based invoice verification is not used and no usage decision has been made for any inspection lot, or if goods-receipt-based invoice verification is used and no goods receipt has been posted for the item.

Blanket Purchase Order

A blanket purchase order requires entering specific data, and authorized users can be configured using system messages and user parameters.

Material Ledger

Characteristics of the material ledger include activation per controlling area, valuation of materials in different currencies, calculation of the standard price, and optional use in SAP S/4HANA.

Delivery Reminders

Prerequisites for issuing delivery reminders for a purchase order include delivery note, bill of lading, inbound delivery, and goods receipt.

MRP Live Planning

Procurement proposals that can be created during an MRP Live planning run for externally procured materials include planned order and purchase requisition.

Material Blocking

A material can be completely blocked for procurement in a plant by creating a blocking entry in the supplier master record, using a relevant plant-specific material status in the material master, or creating an entry in the source list with a blocking indicator and no supplier.

Goods Receipt

Actions supported when posting a goods receipt to stock with reference to a purchase order include posting a goods receipt for part of the order quantity, posting the quantity received to quality inspection stock, splitting the quantity received to multiple storage locations, adjusting the purchase order quantity to the goods receipt quantity, and entering a value for the quantity received.
