  • Any Idoc for "storage location for a material" ?

    Hi Everyone,
    Does anybody know if there is an IDoc type to insert storage location for a material (Table MARD).
    BDC is also an option but IDoc should be a better choice.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ankur

    Hi Ankur,
    Storage location view of a material can be created with
    MATMAS message type ( Segment E1MARDM )  . You can also use program RMDATIND with relevant data to add the storage location view.
    Cheers.

  • Open a storage location for a material

    Hi,
    how can I open a storage location for a material ?
    Is also possible to do it automatically ?
    Regards

    A storage location is customizing, this is in general open to take any material.
    depending on the customizing setting for Auto.create storage location you allow SAP to add the storage location view to your material master automatically with the first movement of a material to a storage location or not.
    if you dont allow that, then you have to maintain the storage location view in material master manually for each storage location before you can post a movement for this material in a certain storage location.

  • Block Storage location for particular material

    Hi,
    We gave defined storage location for finished product as follows>
    1050 - 2-8°
    1040 - RT
    When I have created one material, wrongly i have created it in 1050 instead of 1040.
    Then i have extend that material to 1040. Now that material is showing both storage locations.
    Is it possible to block storage location 1050 for this material only?
    Because of both SLOC thre are chaces of wrong receipt in 1050.
    Pl. help me to solve this problem.

  • Multiple storage bin for single material

    Hi,
    We wanted to assign multiple storage bins in the material master as the material is stored in mutilple storage bin in the same storage location. We are not using WM.
    We want to resolve the issue without implementing WM.
    Please advice where and how do we maintain the same.
    In plant data / stor 1 view there is a provision for maintaining only one storage bin.
    Thanks,
    Reddy

    it is not possible without WM.
    As workaround :
    You either create for each storage bin a storage location,
    or
    you active batch management and let the batch work as bin.

  • Blocking storage location for particular material

    All SAP Gurus,
    Can we block the storege location for particular material.
    Regards,

    Block Storage Location from further posting
       You can block the storage location of a material without affecting the rest of the location using the same material.
        Create a Physical Inventory document for the storage location with transaction MI01
        Select the Posting Block checkbox.
        This would prevent transactions from occuring until you either post or delete the physical inventory document.
        (There are no impact, unless you do a post difference for the physical inventory document.)

  • Maintain new storage location for existing material codes

    Dear,
    We want to extend material master to more storage locations. Currently we have coding starting from 910000 for finish material and is configured for storage location FG01, now we want to extend all the codes with 91 series to storage location PR06 & QC01
    The same needs to be done for many other material codes with different series.
    Kindly give suggestions/solutions
    Thanks
    Vikram Sanghvi.

    Hi,
    You can use extend the material from Plant to plant or from Storage location to storage location.
    or 2nd is that Go to SE16 to get all material from MARD Table. then
    export in Excel and go to Mass mainteince in material master to extend the material.
    try this one

  • Automatic storage location for a material

    Hi,
    Can anybody help on following issue-
    Could we set up by Material number  for each plant, which Default storage location ( and/or shipping point ) will automatically show up in order entry.
    Pls. guide.
    Regards

    Hello,
    Your requirements are standard & can be met.
    Automatic/default Shipping Point:
    Go to IMG - logistics execution - shipping - basic shipping functions - Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination - Define Shipping Conditions.
    You enter the shipping conditions in the customer master - sales area data - shipping screen. Also in the sales document type configuration in VOV8, you can enter the shipping point. If you enter the shipping point in the sales document then this entry will overwrite the entry of the customer master.
    Go to IMG - logistics execution - shipping - basic shipping functions - Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination - Define Loading Groups.
    You enter the loading group in the material master - sales: general/plant data screen.
    Go to IMG - logistics execution - shipping - basic shipping functions - Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination - Assign Shipping Points.
    Here you will find as under:
    Shipping conditions + Loading group + Plant = Shipping Point.
    Default Storage location:
    Go to IMG - logistics execution - shipping - picking - Determine Picking Location - Define Storage Conditions.
    Here you define the storage conditions which you enter in the material master - General Plant Data / Storage screen.
    Now go to IMG - logistics execution - shipping - picking - Determine Picking Location - Assign Picking Locations.
    Here you will find as under:
    Shipping Point + Plantb + Storage conditions = Storage location.
    Maintain the data in the customer as well as material master correctly & the assignments should be as per the data maintained. Then whenever you will create a sales order, the system will determine the default shipping point & the storage location.
    Reward points if solution helps.
    With best regards,

  • Use of PIR consumption for advance material order (MTO prototype)

    Hi planing Gurus,
    I am investigating the possibility to use PIR to trigger replenishement long lead time sub level mfg or purchase products in the context of building MTO prototype. I believe I could use planning strategy 70/consumption mode VSFB to handle eventual actual requirements that will be created at higher levels.
    Q1. The parameters Fwd and Bwd consumption in MRP 3 are limitted. For instance, if I set 7 days each the system will only consider actual demand in this timeframe. I am not too in favor to set large value there to manage the fact that actual demand may not occur exactly as planned by the PIR. Is there any way the consumption can be iterative (eg. bwd 7, fwd 7, bwd 14, fwd 14)?
    Q2. Is there another mean to trigger replenishment of long lead time mfg part/purch part in the contexte of MTO prototype and manage consumption.
    Your help is greatly appreciate and speed up my curve to learn SAP PP architecture (I have experience with other mfg systems).
    Francois Paquet

    You had another question
    Q2. Is there another mean to trigger replenishment of long lead time mfg part/purch part in the contexte of MTO prototype and manage consumption.
    FOr this I would suggest even looking at Planning strategy (PS) = 50.
    This strategy are probably the most widely-used strategies in a make-to-order environment.
    Procurement of the long lead items (components) is planned by means of planned independent requirements entered at the finished product level. The system creates special planned orders at the finished product level for these planned independent requirements. These orders are only relevant for production once a sales order for the finished product exists.
    The assemblies are, however, produced or procured before the sales order is entered. Production is carried out up to one level before the finished product level, and the assemblies and components required for producing the finished product are placed in stock to await the incoming sales order.
    Final assembly is triggered once a sales order has been entered.
    Hope this helps you take a good decision.
    Thanks,
    Ram

  • Get Batches at a Storage location for the Material

    I want to get a list of all batches at a sloc for a matnr.I want to get special stock,sales order stock etc just like MMBE.I've debugged,searched the forum but couldn't find anything.I'm looking for a FM.Or joins is the only way out?
    Right now I'm looking at MKOL and MSKA are there any other tables I need to look at?
    Thanks a lot..

    You will have to read the batches of a given material from MCHA(if batches are maintained at a plant level) or MCH1(cross-site batches), then get the stocks of each of the batches by calling MB_READ_MATERIAL_STOCKS. You will have to fill in the MTCOM parameter.

    if a Material is maintained in more than one bin,what stock placement strategy will be be better,normally the client uses Fixed bin but some materials are  placed in more than one bin.

    Hi
    If u r using chemical sort of thing, fixed bin will be better.

    example ;
    material ; 5000

    we want to block sloc-0002, how to block sloc, pl help if any solution available.
    thanx in advance
    regards
    srihari

    Hi,
    You can block the material completely for any movement type by checking <b>X Plant matl status</b> in Basic data view of material master.Or if you want to block specific movement type it will have to done thro authorisation but will apply to all materials .Here the authorisation object  M_MSEG_LGO    can be worked to remove the movement type or storage loaction .

    Have you looked FM <b>CONSUMPTION_READ_FOR_MM</b>?
    Here are the parameters.
    - Material Number MATNR
    - Plant WERKS
    - Period Indicator PERKZ (M= Monthly, W=Weekly, T=Daily, P = Fiscal Year)
    - Fiscal year variant PERIV (if PERKZ = P)

  • Multiple Posting change notice created for one material document

    Hi All,
    The scenario is that the user needs to transfer material from unrestricted to quality stock type. while doing so the storage type is different than the actual storage type for the material. Meaning if the material is normally stored in high rack storage type, when it is found that the material is damaged or expired it need to be moved to the quality storage type. For this the user will first create  material document in IM with movement type 322 transferring material from unrestricted stock to qualtiy stock. A PCN will be created in back ground which will in turn be converted manually by the user to a TO. while doing so the user will pick the quant manually from the required storage type and select the destination storage type as the quality or quanranntine area.
    The issue here is that system creates one PCN for each material document line item. The requirement is that the system should create only one PCN with multiple lines for one Material document.
    The setting in the movememnt type clearly says that it will behave as it is behaving.
    Is there any other way or setting by which we can create one PCN with multiple line items for a material document.
    Would look forward to your replies.
    Regards,
    Jeetendra

    Thanks and Sorry for the delayed reply. We have now convinced the users that the system behaviour is standard and we cannot change the same.
    To your question about the need to have one PCN with multiple lines please note that the setup is such that when material document is created for transferring material from unrestricted to quality and vice versa this document is created with multiple materials in one go. Now when the PCN is to be converted to TO then the user ends up in creating number of TO's equal to the number of lines in the Material Document. We wanted to avoid this and hence this was posted in SDN.
