Purchasing Documents

1) EKKO contains information about the type of the document, the vendor/
supplying plant and other informations valid for all items of the document;

2) EKPO contains information about what is ordered to which price; you can
order material (with or without material number!) or services; a document
contains between 1 and 99999 items;

3) In EKET we find the desired delivery date and the quantity we‘ve ordered
for each delivery date; for each item we can maintain between 1 and 9999
schedule lines;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 7


Purchasing Documents

4) In EKKN account assignment datas are stored (G/L account, cost center,
order,...); we need account assignment data every time, the material will not
be posted to stock; then the data are directly used at time of goods receipt
and invoice receipt to generate the financial document; it is possible to
enter between 1 and 99 account assignments for one item; if you‘ve more
than one account assignment the goods receipt can‘t be posted valuated,
means that then no financial document can be created;
sap customers are able to add own account assignment fields to EKKN
and other structures via customizing (IMG);
you‘ll find entries in table EKKN every time when EKPO-KNTTP ne space and
EKPO-KZVBR ne U;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 8


Purchasing Documents

5) Normally every document needs an output message record to send the information
to the vendor; the determination of output message records is customizable; there
are processes where you don‘t need information flow (e.g. stock transport order);

6)7) Regullarly the goods we order are not free and we‘ve to pay for them. In these
cases the item contains conditions; we can identify such items by the following fields:
- EKPO-REPOS ne space or EKPO-XCONDITIONS ne space (4.6C)
The following items can contain conditions (e.g. delivery costs):
- EKPO-REPOS eq space and EKPO-PSTYP eq 7 (stock transport order)

For the difference between document and time dependent conditions please
have a look at paper ‚CONDITIONS and PRICING‘; if possible to switch, this is
ruled by EKKO-STAKO which is filled from T161-STAKO (document type); the
document conditions are linked to the purchasing document through EKKO-KNUMV,
time dependent conditions through various Axxx condition table entries

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 9


Purchasing Documents

8) Partners are used to store information about sender of the invoice, supplier of the
goods or another address where the po should be sent to; the determination of partners
and the options for maintaining them in the doucment is ruled by a partner scheme
stored in T161 (document type); for more information please read the paper ‚partners
in purchasing‘
9) Whether an item contains service data or not is ruled by the item category
(EKPO-PSTYP); service data and limits are necessary when EKPO-PSTYP = 1
(blanket po) or EKPO-PSTYP = 9 (service); the service data are linked to the po item
through EKPO-PACKNO, this is the key for the service database tables; for more
information please have a look at paper ‚services‘

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 10


Purchasing Documents

10) Import data are necessary if the vendor belongs to another country than the
receiving plant; depending to the company code you can decide whether the
import data screens should be processed never, ever, for every import or only
if it is an import inside the EU (T001-IMPDA); the import data are linked to the
purchasing data through field EKKO-EXNUM which is the key of tables EIKP and
EIPO
11) Subcontracting components are necessary when item is of category ‚subcontracting‘
(EKPO-PSTYP = 3); there are different components stored for each schedule line;
RESB linked with EKET through field EKET-RSNUM; relinked via RESB-EBELN,
RESB-EBELP, RESB-ETENR;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 11


Purchasing Documents

12) Texts are possible on header and item level; texts are stored in database tables
STXH and STXL; header texts with TDOBJECT = EKKO, item texts with
TDOBJECT = EKPO; the possible text id‘s are customized (see various transactions
in menue OLME);

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 12


Purchasing Documents

13) Changedocuments are written if you create or change a document; there are different
types of changedocuments:
 Insert or delete a record (e.g. item, schedule line, account assignment data)
 Change a record  for each field of the record which is changed and the appropriate flag
in the data element of the field is switched on in DDIC one changedocument item is written
containing the old and the new value of the field
Note: not for all database tables in purchasing we do have changedocuments (KONV,
RESB,...)
Changedocuments are stored in tables CDHDR and CDPOS;
You will find all changedocuments for one document searching with
OBJECTCLAS = EINKBELEG and OBJECTID = EKKO-EBELN;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 13


Purchasing Documents

14) EKPV and VETVG are written for all items which need a delivery through LES
application; this is the case in stock transport orders (EKKO-RESWK ne space) and
return items (EKPO-RETPO ne space and EKPO-LFRET ne space); LES shipping is
only possible if the item has an material master;
most of the data of EKPV are derived via function module
SD_TRANSFERDATA_DETERMINE; EKPV-LEDAT is filled with the lowest shipping
date of all open schedule lines; a schedule line is open in that mind when
EKET-MENGE GT EKET-GLMNG; shipping date is determined through function
module ME_CALCULATE_LEDAT (beginning with 4.5);
VETVG is used from LES to create the deliveries; VETVG-LEDAT is calculated
as the minimum of EKPV-LEDAT of all items of the document; if VETVG-LEDAT
is 0 the record will be deleted;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 14


Purchasing Documents

15) EKUB is stored for stock transport orders (EKKO-RESWK ne space); the index is
used in MRP to display and calculate the requirements in the delivering plant
(EKKO-RESWK); if an item is no more open EKUB will be deleted (regullarly) to save
performance in ATP checks;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 15


Purchasing Documents

16) One EKBE record is written for every goods receipt (GR), invoice receipt (IR), delivery,
goods issue, service entry or down payment posted against a po or delivery plan item;
EKBE is used every time we need information about how many we‘ve received until
now, how many is invoiced, what is the open quantity of the item;

17) One EKBZ record is written for every delivery cost condition at time of goods and
invoice receipt; for delivery costs you have to maintain an additional invoice item;

To save performance there is the option to comprimize EKBE and EKBZ and to store
The original data in other data base tables EKBEH and EKBZH. This is used often for
Delivery plans because customer‘s are working with the same delivery plan over some
Years.

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 16


Purchasing Documents

18) In EKES we store the information about confirmations and shipping notifications;
both are documents from the vendor to confirm that or at which time he can deliver the
ordered material and in what quantity; main purpose of EKES is that ATP/MRP can
calculate using the most actual knowledge about material flow; EKES is more actual
than EKET is;

19) One EKAB record is written every time you create an po or delivery plan item against
a contract item; EKAB is used every time you need information about the open quantity
of a contract item;

 SAP AG 2001 SAPNET/mmint (Thomas Klemm) / 17


Purchasing Documents

X1) In ME21N it is possible to park a po without any items


X2) There is a solution implemented for IS-Retail to allow schedule lines in contracts
ruled by T161-KOETT (which is NOT maintainable in IMG)
X3) Schedule lines are the main part of a delivery plan; nevertheless you can‘t
maintain schedule lines when you create/change a delivery plan; you can
maintain schedule lines in a separate transaction (ME38) afterwards;
to save performance there is the option to comprimize EKET records and save the
original ones in another database table EKETH; this option is necessary only for
delivery plans;
X4) We don‘t store account assignment information in the rfq, even though the
rfq is created with reference to a requisition with account assignment information;
the account assignment data are copied lateron from requisition to po when the rfq
is converted into a po

- Material master provides a lot of descriptive (short text, long text, weights, units of
measurement) and ruling (responsible purchasing group, planned delivery time, type of
procurement -> internal/external) data; some of the data are stored in document item because
they are needed in followon functions (base unit of measurement, conversion factors, weights);
- We‘ve 2 fields for the material number; normally both are filled with the same value; in MPN
(manufacturer part number) case they are filled differently; MATNR is the stock keeping material
(e.g. spark-plug), EMATN is the more specific material from a specific manufacturar (e.g. spark-
plug from BOSCH); on the item overview screen you enter the EMATN;
there is an important data base index on EKPO-MATNR (no one on EKPO-EMATN); this index
is used in MRP as well as in reports to list all purchasing document for one material;

EKPO (7)

- MATKL material group


- If you don‘t order a material with material master you‘ve to enter a material group (otherwise

are identical; the quantity can be rounded by the system (rounding profile EKPO-RDPRF);
- EKPO-MEINS is defaulted from inforecord or material master; in case of contract reference the
order unit can‘t be different from order unit of contract; otherwise the order unit can be chosen
when it is allowed for the material or inforecord; in the old transactions you‘ve to chose the order
unit when entering the item; the order unit is only changeable afterwards in the new enjoy
transaction; in stock transport orders the order unit is defaulted with the issue unit of material
master segment of the delivering plant;

- NETPR/WAERS/PEINH/BPRME price per unit 10 USD / 1000 PC

from the item category (T163) (e.g. WEPOS, REPOS, whether account assignment category is
forbidden, allowed or obligatory, see following slides);
Internal external (on the screen, language dependent)
0 normal
1 blanket item B
2 Consignment K
3 Subcontracting L
5 third-party S

material valuated stock has to be enabled;
- If EKPO-KNTTP is not space then you‘ve to maintain the accounting data which are transfered to
FI/CO at time of goods or invoice receipt;
- The different account assignment categories allows the user to enter different fields (e.g. for K
you‘ve to enter a cost center, for P you‘ve to enter a WBS element (project));
- Very often some of the accounting data are derived automatically by the system so that the user
don‘t have to enter many data manually (they are FI data -> critical);
- In customizing T163A it is clearly decided which account assignment categories are allowed for
which item category;

EKPO (11)

- WEPOS inidicator for goods receipt (GR)


- X item with goods receipt
- For some item categories GR is mandatory (consignment, stock transport),
for others it is optional (third-party), for some it depends on the account assignment indicator
(normal with account assignment indicator blank -> mandatory,
normal with account assignment indicator filled -> optional);

- WEUNB indicator for unvaluated goods receipt


- X goods receipt will happen without financial document

because of delivery costs);

WEBRE indicator for GR-related invoice verification


X item with GR-related invoice verification
If this indicator is set to X then you‘ve to maintain for each GR a seperate invoice item; to
Link GR and IR the fields LFBNR, LFPOS, LFGJA in table EKBE is used;

EKET (4)

Status data

WEMNG, WAMNG and GLMNG are calculated in program SAPLEINU. The EKBE record
is transfered to SAPLEINU and then the appropriate field is en- or decreased. For correction
purposes a correction report is available via oss note.
All three fields are not necessary for purchasing purposes, because this is handled by the
EKBE records (what quantity is open? ...). The fields are only needed for MRP/ATP purposes
