Availability Check Changed on the Material Master Update Existing Orders

I need to know if there is a way to update existing orders once changes have been made to the material. Currently the only way that I know of is to go into individual orders change the plant save then change it back to the original plant on the order then the changes take effect. How can I achieve this without touching every order individually. Is there something to mass update existing orders to take a new snapshot of the material master settings for a material.

Try with t.code VA05 - Open sales order list.
Execute this list. In the output, sort the data by plant. Then go to menu Edit -> mass change -> new plant. Change the plant for group of sales orders that have similar plants. Then again do the same thing to bring the previous plant in the sales orders.
This can help reduce the time instead of going one by one.
Regards,

Re: Changes in the material master.

Hi guru's,
The vendor supplies the material 1 box which consists of 20 pieces, we known that in the material master the unit of measure for alternate UoM is maintained as 10 pieces (in additional data tab). If I make changes as the receipt from vendor as 20 pieces instead of 10 pieces already maintained, what are the consequences I face. its ur pl.
thanks

Hi,
Once you make changes in material master ( from 10 to 20) then when you make the GR then system will make GR for 20 quantities (After makeing changes in MM you have to again change the conversion in PO in quantities tab).
So after making GR, quantities & stock value will be updated as per data mentoned in PO conversion.
If you make any new PO then system will pick bydefaut the conversion in PO from the material master.(i.e. 20 qty for 1 pc)

Tracking changes in the material master

Hi All,
I have a material master 123456.
In this I have batch_class 023 type. I have a characteristic COLOUR which is assigned to the batch_class.
For this characteristic there are 2 options RED and BLACK.
When I created the material master I had assigned RED colour. I did some transaction also.
After 2 days when I went inside the material master, I found BLACK insteadof RED.
I want to know who did this changes? I am not able to track this from the mm03--material master changes.
How do i track the changes?
Regards,
Narendra Bora

in MM04 i think you may not be able to find the classification changes.
i wouls suggest you to activate change logs on AUSP table a prerequisite of change logs is activating multi object assignments. This entails running program RCCLUKA2 which converts KSSK and AUSP to internal number (more information on the program/procedure can be found in the documentation of the program).
this can help you to find the change log on the classificaiton values.

How to include field Internal order in the material master for SD orders

Hello,
I would like to know how I can bring the field "Internal Order" to the material master, so I can create materials with assignments to internal orders.
We want to create Sales Orders where when we enter on order item with a material, the internal order is derived automatically from the material master.
Thank you in advance!
Jose Eximeno

Hello,
I am not familiar with the field "product attributes" in relation with entering the field "internal order"...
Could you be a little more specific on how product attributes can be used to enter the internal order number in the material master?
Best regards,
Jose

Units of Measures found in the material master.

Hi,
What is significance of different Units of Measures found in the material master.
Ajay

Hi,
Order unit
Unit of measure in which a material is ordered. It is the default unit in purchasing functions.
Order price unit
Unit in which the vendor invoices you. The order price unit is defined in the purchase order or in the purchasing info record. If you have defined an order price unit in the PO, the goods receipt will be recorded in both the order unit and the order price unit.
Sales unit
Unit of measure in which a material is sold. It automatically appears as the default in a sales order and can be changed there.
Unit of issue
Unit of measure in which a material is issued from the warehouse/stores. You can use this unit of measure in conjunction with goods issues and physical inventory activities.
Any quantities that you specify in a unit of measure other than the base unit are automatically converted into the base unit by the system. To make this possible, you must enter the ratio for conversions between alternative units and the base unit (the conversion factor) in the material master record. You can enter this information when specifying the alternative unit of measure

Availability check for Make to stock and Make to Order

Dear All,
Client is selling Make to stock and make to Order material.
How and what settings need to do for Avaialbility check.or we can use standard one.
I hope in case of Make to Order availability check may not happen.
Please correct me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Shrikant

hi,
yes for make to order we dont have AvChk. for make to stock items u need to follow the
below configuration.
Availability check
1. Availability check is an integral part of the business process that determines if the required delivery quantity can be met on a required delivery date. For this purpose the system takes into account pre-delivery activities such as scheduling for picking or packing times and the time taken to produce or obtain the material. It also performs several background functions such as Backorder processing, rescheduling and ATP quantities.
2. Backorder processing: processing of a sales order that has not been fully confirmed or not confirmed at a certain delivery date.
3. Rescheduling: is a proposal of how u2013 confirmed quantities already assigned to a sales order can be reassigned to other sales orders that have a higher priority.
4. Available to promise (ATP): is a process of checking the available quantities of a material. The ATP quantity consists of warehouse stock + planned receipts (incoming stock) u2013 planned issues (outgoing stock). to examine stock on hand (CO09) proceed to logistics u2013 sales & distribution u2013 sales u2013 environment u2013 availability overview.
5. Replenishment lead time (RLT): is the time taken for the material to become available either internally (in house production) or externally (from a vendor). The most important things to consider during an external procurement are purchasing and MRP 2 (procurement) views of MMR where the processing time for purchasing, planned delivery time and goods receipt processing time are taken into account. On the other hand internal procurement is based on in house production time (MRP 2 view) goods receipt processing time or alternatively RLT time, which is found on MRP 3 view.
6. RLT (Replenishment Lead Time) is the time taken for the material to become available. RLT is only used when doing an ATP check (Available To Promise). The value of RLT for a material is specified on material master record.
7. There are three types of availability checks u2013
Check on basis of ATP quantities.
Check against product allocation.
Check against planning.
Configuring Availability check through Checking Groups u2013
1. The checking group + checking rule determine how the availability check is to be performed.
2. The checking group determines whether and how the system checks the stock availability and generates requirements for material planning. The checking group defines what type of requirements will be passed on i.e. summarized requirements (daily/weekly) or individual requirements for each sales order.
3. The checking rule applies to how the availability check is to be carried out at the transaction level. Note that you must define checking rules for each individual application such as for production orders for example. In Sales and Distribution, the checking rule is specified internally within the system and cannot be changed.
4. The checking rule, in conjunction with the checking group, determines the scope of the availability check for every business operation; that is, which stocks, receipts and issues are to be included in the availability check and whether the check is to be carried out with or without the replenishment lead time.
5. Briefly explaining the above u2013 checking group determines which type of requirement to be passed on to MRP whether it be individual or summarized and checking rule which is at the transaction level and can be configured independently for each application module, determines which stocks, receipts and issues to be taken into account. For performing an availability check checking group has to work in conjunction with checking rule.
6. Advantages of individual processing over summarized processing u2013
Backorder processing is possible.
You can access (MD04) order, line and schedule line individually which gives a greater control on available stock and requirements placed on stock.
The system automatically uses individual requirements in case of special stock items.
7. Required data for the Availability check to be carried out u2013
The Availability check must be switched on at the requirement class level.
The Availability check must be set at the schedule line level.
A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found.
A plant must be defined in the sales order for each schedule line item (in other words plant must be defined for every material in MMR).
A checking group must be defined in the material master record in the MRP3 screen in the availability check field.
8. Configuring Availability check and defining Checking Groups u2013
Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
SAP standard checking groups are 01 u2013 summarized requirements and 02 u2013 individual requirements or you can create your own by copying the standard ones.
Total sales and total deliveries columns are there to configure a checking rule to sum up requirements to post to MRP either individually or by day or week.
Block quantity required can be set if you want several users to be able to process the material simultaneously in different transactions without blocking each other.
The no check indicator is CHECKED when you DO NOT want the system to carry out ATP check.
9. Defining material block for other users u2013 the block check box is an indicator that enables you to block material master records of a particular material during the availability check and restrict other users from accessing same master record and reserve the material. If the block is not set, two users can confirm the same material at the same time for two different orders, not knowing if the stock is available or not. If you select this field, the material is blocked during the availability check and other users cannot: a) Make changes in the material master record. b) Create purchase orders for the material. C) Create orders for the material.
10. Defining default values for checking groups - Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
However if there is no entry present in the material master record for the checking group, a default value can be set here, depending on material type and plant.
This default value will be used by the system depending on the material type mentioned in MMR and plant in sales order.
If an entry exists, this default value is over written by MMR.
11. Controlling Availability Check u2013 in this section, you tell the system what stock on hand and what inward and outward movements of stock it must take into account when performing the availability check in addition to whether or not to consider the replenishment lead time.
12. These settings are based on the checking group that is assigned to the material master record and the checking rule that is predefined and assigned to the sales and distribution transaction.
13. These settings carry out control both for sales order and delivery as well. This is due to the fact that you may want to include specific stock or incoming stock for the sales order, yet at the time of the delivery only include physical stock on hand waiting to be shipped.
14. It is possible to indicate to the system that you would like the availability check NOT TO CHECK the stock at the storage location level. This indicator is used to set the scope of the availability check.
15. It is used to switch off the check at storage location level. You create a reservation for a particular storage location. However, the scope of the availability check is set in such a way as to exclude the storage location. In this case, the system carries out the check at plant level only and does not take the storage location into account that is specified in the reservation.
16. Should you not want the system to automatically check RLT, you may indicate so here. RLT is the time taken for a material to become available. It is only used when doing an ATP check and is taken from MMR.
17. Defining the elements in the availability check entirely depends on the business needs, but a few tips are given under u2013
When controlling the Availability check at the time of the sales order, a purchase requisition does not necessarily indicate by it is going to come into the plant.
A shipping notification on the other hand - a confirmed purchase order u2013 is a good indicator of receiving stock on a specified date.
It is always recommended not to select the shipping notifications for the delivery requirements type as you may not actually receive the stock into plant or warehouse for which you are creating a delivery.

Change of price control from "s" to "v" in the material master

Dear All,
Due to business requirement, we would like to change the price control for FERT items in the material master from "S-Standard Cost" to "V-Moving Average Price". This change we would like to do only at sales plants (Non-Manufacturing Locations). Very few materilas are having the stock on the date of the price control change
I would like to know is there any SAP Note / Any of you are having such experience? Please arrange the same.
Regards
Anilkumar

Hi,
i am not sure about any program but through MR21 you can change tthe Price in material master.
If stock is available system will hit to closing stock of the material for price change in case stock is not available it will hit price difference gl account.

Update of cost in the material master

Hi all,
From the purchasing point of view,In the normal process Cost in the Material master gets updated from purchasing documnents automatically.In this case,manually if the cost is changed in the purchase order affects the cost in the material master.My requirement is this should be done automatically after receiving the vendors confirmation of list of material costs.There may be chance of change in the cost of the materials.so the costs of the materials which were changed should get updated in the material master automatically(VPRS).
Ie changing of the costs of the materials in the purchase order should be reduced .How this will done??
If we have more than 2000 line items in the purchase order,it will be quite little bit difficult to update each material cost in the purchase order .
Thanks in advance..
Regards...VM

Hi,
Normally material will be valuated with two types of price controls S -standard price and V-moving avaerage price.
A std price as its name indicated it is std and will not chnage.
A moving average price will chnage accordingly with the change in the material price.
Normally it will be better create a info record for the material and vendor combination for the plant or purchase organisation with a info update indicator in the purchase order will serve your pupose .
With the proper settings at SPRO system creates info record during creation of PO if it does not exist or updates the existing record if it has one with the latest price details in the form of last purchasing document so that these details get defaulted during creation of PO.
However you can create a outline aggrement so that a PO can be created with reference to that.
Or you can create a condition record for the price for your combination so that it can get defaulted.
The price which is there in PO will not be defaulted to material master.
Or time to time you can review the prices and maintain via MR21.

Change Excise Duty Group on the Material Master

What are the steps to change the excise duty group in the Material Master (MARC- OITAXGRP)? I am getting a message 'Excise duty tax group cannot be changed due to posted stock'.
We realised some of materials have been setup with incorrect excise duty group at a few plants and there have been a lot material movements posted (101s, 301s). But is the best way to fix this?
Do we have to reverse all the documents or is it good if we zero the inventory and then it will allow us to change?
Is a direct table update of the table an option?
Please advice.
Thanks in advance
Srini

you can't change the excise duty group if there is a stock for the material.
there is a steps that you need to follow if you inisist to change:
- zerorize the stock in the current period (all stock types)
- zerorise the stock in previous period (all stock types)
- then only you can change the excise duty group.
these steps can only be carried out when the two posting period are still open, so normally you should do it at month end.

"Conditions" button at the material master - Change the related condition

There is "Conditions" button at the material master ("Sales: sales org. 1" tab). We can make condition record of PR00 by this button but at our system the condition for the material price is different (it isZPR0 at our system). How can I change the related condition type as ZPR0 for this button?
Thanks in advance for the answers....

Check program LMGMMF0Q and FUNCTION SD_COND_GET_DEFAULT_CONDITION for details.
It looks it is hard coded, but they also mention that Via a user exit (business transaction event), the
default KSCHL and KOTABNR can be set.

If so in transaction MMD2 for MRP profile, choose the special procurement type field & change the selection from display mode.
Now in transaction mm02 the spl procurement field can be entered/changed.
