Hello,
We have a scenario where we procure materials in different packaging size (25kg bag, 50 kgs etc) from different vendor.
Different packaging size has different rates. Presently while creating PO's we enter the rates manually and change the description of the material in PO.
Please suggest is there any functionality in SAP wherein we can select required packaging size and system picks up the respective price in the PO.
Waiting for a reply.
Thanks in advance.
Request clarification before answering.
Hi,
If you can maintain different order UOM for 25 kg, 50 kg etc, it will be easy. You may go to CUNI transaction and create new order unit for 25kg bag (say 25K) and new order unit for 50 kg bag (say 50K). Now, in material master - purchasing view, you can maintain order unit as any of the newly created order unit and maintain the variable order unit as 2 (Active with its own price).
Now, go to the info record in ME11 / ME12. Maintain the variable order unit as 2 and then click on conditions tab. Now, system will ask you the order price unit. Thus, you can maintain the order price based on this unit and the same will be reflected in PO. If you want different order unit in PO, maintain the corresponding order unit in info record or change it in PO manually. In both cases, price will be defaulted, if its maintained in info record correctly.

Hi AKPT MM,
Thanks for your reply. I think this would be a good option.
I tried replicating this scenario with existing UOM in system.
I maintained the material master for Var.Or.Unit as "2"
Maintained the Info record as "2" and maintained the different rates in the conditions for different Order unit
But while creating PO rate is being picked from the Order Unit in Info record. If i change the Unit manually in the PO it does not pick the new rate.
Please help.
It will work.
Check the info record correctly..
Can you see the both unit of measure in Info record, when you click on Condition tab..
Suppose you are using BAG and KG,
You can see the two OUM when you click on the condition tab.
Click on one by one and maintain the price for condition type PB00.
1st double click on BAG, then maintain the price
Then press back and click again on condition and maintain the price for KG
Also check the validity period.
It will change in PO, which you have maintained in info record.
Hi Dev Patra.
I have checked and all the above you mentioned have been correctly maintained.
But while creating PO, system by default take the rates of Order unit maintained in the General Data tab. Once changing the Order unit in PO, the respective rates do not pick. Is there anymore settings required ?
Hi Shailesh,
How about making material batch managed; attaching a Variant class (300)?
Keep the base unit in KG (or TO).
Then maintain info-record for each vendor (as you said, each vendor will supply different sizes, so basically you are maintaining a size wise info-record).
While creating PO, the purchaser will input size as batch number (for e.g., "25KG" / "50KG" etc) in PO itself.
GR will be posted with same batch as PO:
you can obtain Stock (and all other reports) batch-wise:
Just give this a thought...

Please check the blog, and maintain the price as it is maintained in this blog.
FYI
Hi Shailesh,
As per my understanding you will be receiveing the item in bags of different weights ( in KGs ) if I am not wrong. If it is the requirement, could you please test the scenario by maintaing Scales with unit of measure as KG?
for example:
1-25KG = X price
26 - 50KG = Y price..and so on..
Just an idea..hope it might be helpful...

When you entered the all information in PO, Is the price for default order unit is coming as your info record?
Like I can see you have used KG as default order unit, When you create PO, then the order unit will be KG,
Is the price comes automatically for order unit KG with regards to info record?
Just do one test, change the order unit in info record, then create a new PO.
Hi,
Go to MEK3 transaction and insert the condition type PB00 and press enter. Select the key combination and press enter. Now, enter the vendor, material, purchase org and plant and execute. Check whether both the prices are displayed there with order unit.
Please check whether the price is maintained correctly along with correct validity date. Please check the same.
Now, create a new PO for the material and plant and vendor combination. The order unit maintained in material master - purchasing view (as shown below) will be defaulted in PO along with the price maintained in info record for the order unit.
Change the unit manually to any other alternate unit. Now, the system will bring the price in PO as maintained in info record (and as shown in MEK3).
Please check and revert back.
Regards,
AKPT
Hi Shailesh,
Just a small question. As you said that you have changed Order unit, but still the problem exists. While creating PO if you change the order unit in PO, are the prices picking correctly as per the info record? I have run the scenario with another example and it seems to be clear for me.
Regards
Sesha.
