Quizz Unit 1- The Procurement Process: Basics

Question 1

Which procurement process(es) end as a rule with the goods receipt and not with the invoice date?

A- Procurement by another plants in company using a stock transfer order.
B- Stock transfer of materials by means of subcontracting.
C- Normal purchase of materials from a vendor without provision of components.
D- Procurement of material by means of consignment.

Answer 1

A, D

With stock transfer using a stock transfer order, there is no invoice date as a rule if the receiving and issuing plant are assigned to a company code.
With vendor consignment a liability only arises when a withdrawal is made from consignment stock but not when the goods in the consignment are delivered.

Question 2

A plant can be assigned to several company codes?

Answer 2

False
A plant can be assigned to only one company code. At the same time, this
assignment is essential.

Question 3

A purchasing organization can act for several plants.?

Answer 3

True
The plants for which a P.Org acts can belong to one company code or different company codes. If the P.Org is assigned to a company code, then it can only apply to plants from this company code.

Question 4

A purchasing group must always be assigned to a purchasing organization?

Answer 4

False
There is no link between a purchasing group and a purchasing organization
in the system. There is no assignment of purchasing groups to purchasing
organizations.

Question 5

A purchasing organization must always be assigned to a company code?

Answer 5

False
The assignment of a purchasing organization to a company code is optional
and not mandatory.

Question 6

You can create a purchase order with reference to a purchase requisition?

Answer 6

True
You can create a purchase order with reference to a purchase requisition in the
same way as you can refer to an RFQ, a contract or another purchase order.

Question 7

Which organization levels do you have to indicate when entering a purchase order?
A Client
B Company code
C Plant
D Storage location
E Purchasing organization
F Purchasing group

Answer 7

B, C, E, F
Because you select the client when you log on to the SAP system, you do not
need to enter the client in the purchase order. In the organizational data in
the purchase order header, you must enter the purchasing organization, the
purchasing group, and the company code. At item level, enter the plant. You
can enter the storage location but it is not required.

Question 8

What are the effects of the entry of a goods receipt against a purchase order
in the SAP system?
A- The purchase order is deleted.
B- An accounting document can be generated.
C- A material document is generated for each item.
D- The PO history is updated for each item of the purchase order.
E- A material document is generated.
F- A credit memo is automatically generated for the vendor for the amount of the delivery value.

Answer 8

B, D, E

Question 9

Which of the following can you enter using the transaction MIRO?
A Subsequent delivery
B Subsequent debit
C Invoice
D Subsequent adjustment
E Credit memo

Answer 9

B, C, E
You can enter invoices, credit memos, and subsequent debits and credits
using transaction MIRO. Subsequent adjustment is an inventory management
transaction that occurs in connection with the special procurement type
“subcontracting”. Subsequent delivery also counts as a goods movement.
