Procedure documentation Creating a Purch. Requisition - w/o Master Record Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Prerequisites

If the requested material has no master record and is to be ordered for direct usage or consumption, you can specify which consumption account is to be charged. This process is termed account assignment.

For example, you can assign the purchase costs associated with a requisition to your own cost center or to a sales order. The account assignment category indicates the category of the account to be charged (for example, cost center or sales order).

You can specify the account assignment category in the requisition or in the purchase order (see Account Assignment).

Procedure

  1. Choose Requisition ® Create.

The initial screen is displayed.

  1. Enter the relevant data or change the existing values, if necessary.
  2. Note

    You can specify that Purchasing is to enter into a longer-term purchase agreement with a vendor (these are referred to in the SAP System as "outline agreements") on the basis of the purchase requisition. If you do so, Purchasing cannot issue a purchase order against the requisition: it can only set up such an agreement (either a "contract" or a "scheduling agreement").

    In this case, enter rv (for "outline agreement") in the field Document type.

  3. Press ENTER. The item overview appears.
  4. Enter the following information:
  5. – Material short text (short description)

    – Key for the purchasing group (buyer group) responsible for ordering the material (in column Pgp.),

    – Account assignment category (in column A),

    – Requested quantity and unit of measure,

    – Delivery date,
    (If Purchasing is to set up an outline agreement, you will not be able to specify a delivery date.)

    – Material group

    – Number of the receiving plant (Plant column) and the storage location (if known).

    – Currency (local or foreign)

  6. Choose Goto ® Details to enter the valuation price for the material on the item details screen.
  7. The price should reflect the value based on the order unit.

  8. If you entered an account assignment category other than u (unknown), press ENTER in order to enter additional account assignment data (for example, the G/L account number).
  9. Save the purchase requisition.
