Material Substitution during Sales Process
We produce one material, production posting in one material number AAAA, but when people sale because of different grade acid, they sale in several different material number, ie. BBBB and CCCC, then inventory becomes negative for these material number BBBB and CCCC . At month end, people have to do manually move stock from AAAA to BBBB and CCCC.
Is their any way we can config to let this automatically happen? Which means if we sale BBBB and CCCC, it will deduct inventory from AAAA?
Hi,
Have you tried material determination in sales so that when you ordered BBBB, it is substituted with AAAAAA ?
Why doesn't it work ?

Different schedule in terms of payment during sales process
Dear experts,
One of our international customer is having one requirement for having "Various schedule in different terms of payment". Meaning, they want to collect the advance (Down payment) from customers in various schedules during sales process itself. If customer doesn't pay the advance amount then, system should not allow the further sales process like delivery creation, picking and packing.
Example, client wants to receive the advance amount from customer in following schedules
1. During sales order creation - 30%
2. During production order process - 25%
3. then, during delivery creation stage - 25%
4. And as regular after creation of invoice remaining amount 20% client wants to collect from customer.
Is it possible to set this setting with block of sales process. I need experts opinion.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Warm Regards,
VELHi,
You can achieve it through billing plan,

OR ELSE
You can achieve it through payment terms

Material Substitution by Sales Group?
We will be trying to rollout a new product in place of another, but we want to do it in "waves" -- like by different groups of customers. Is anyone aware of any functionality within SAP that would support doing this? What we are thinking is that we may have to do some kind of batch program that would update sales orders, but we are looking for a better way of doing this.
Thank you very much!Hi,
Have you tried material determination in sales so that when you ordered BBBB, it is substituted with AAAAAA ?

Change ivoice doc type during sales process flow.
Hi all!
I have encountered a problem:
AS IS:
1. sales order document type is configured in spro field: <b>Dlv-rel.billing type</b> F2 Invoice
2. after delivery I get invoice of type F2
AS SHOULD BE:
1. I need to have a different invoice type created after delivery on a condition based on customer master data.
Is it possible to program it or change copying requirements so that I would get what I need?
I am not interested in new sales order doc type creation.
Best regards,
MichalMichal,
Your second requirement is standard,
Coming to your second requirement.. Are you expecting to create the billing document through the Billing due list VF04 and get the doc created with specific billing doc type for a particular customer?
If So , I don't think you can achive this. I feel you should come up with a Custom billing program or (Customized VF04) where in you can check the Billing due list for a particular period, or delivery range or customers...and based on the customer you can select the target billing type from the Z tables and do a BDC Code for VF01 by entering the target billing type in the screen. Before this you need do to the necessary copy controls for the bililng types you are going to use
This is my opinion. Lets see any one proposes any User-Exit to achive this.. Even though I say its not possible, I will wait for our Genious SDN'ers response.

How to do a 3rd party sales process
How to do 3rd party sales process.....
plz reply me with the full configuration.....THIRD PARTY SCENARIO
in third-party order processing, your company does not deliver the items requested by a customer. Instead, you pass the order along to a third-party vendor who then ships the goods directly to the customer and bills you. A sales order may consist partly or wholly of third-party items. Occasionally, you may need to let a vendor deliver items you would normally deliver yourself.
Process Flow
the processing of third-party orders is controlled via material types. Material types define whether a material is produced only internally can be ordered only from third-party vendors, or whether both are possible. For example, a material that is defined as a trading good can only be ordered from a third-party vendor. However, if you manufacture your own finished products, you may also want, from time to time, to be able to order the same type of product from other vendors.
Processing Third-Party Orders in Sales
Third-party items can be created automatically by the system, depending on how your system is set. However, you can also change a standard item to a third-party item during sales processing manually.
Automatic third-party order processing:-
if a material is always delivered from one or more third-party vendors, you can specify in the material master that the material is a third-party item. During subsequent sales order processing, the system automatically determines the appropriate item category for a third-party item: TAS. To specify a material as a third-party item, enter BANS in the Item category group field in the Sales 2 screen of the material master record.
Manual third-party order processing
In the case of a material that you normally deliver yourself but occasionally need to order from a third-party vendor, you can overwrite the item category during sales order processing. For a material that you normally deliver yourself, you specify the item category group NORM in the material master.
If, as an exception, you use a third-party material, change the entry TAN to TAS in the ItCa field when processing the sales document. The item is then processed as third-party item.
If address data for the ship-to party is changed in the sales order in third-party business transactions, the changed data will automatically be passed on to purchase requisition and also to the purchase order ,if one already exists. In the purchase order, you can display the address data for the ship-to party in the attributes for the item.
You can only change the address data for the ship-to party in the sales order for third-party business transactions, and not in the purchase order.
Processing Third-Party Orders in Purchasing
when you save a sales order that contains one or more third-party items, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition in Purchasing. Each third-party item in a sales order automatically generates a corresponding purchase requisition item. During creation of the requisition, the system automatically determines a vendor for each requisition item. If a sales order item has more than one schedule line, the system creates a purchase requisition item for each schedule line.
Purchase orders are created from purchase requisitions in the usual way. For more information about creating purchase orders, see the Purchasing documentation. During creation of the purchase order, the system automatically copies the delivery address of your customer from the corresponding sales order. In a sales order, you can enter purchase order texts for each third-party item. When you create the corresponding purchase order, the texts are automatically copied into the purchase order. The number of the purchase order appears in the document flow information of the sales order.
All changes made in the purchase order are automatically made in the sales order as well. For example, if the vendor confirms quantities and delivery dates different from those you request and enters them in the purchase order, the revised data is automatically copied into the sales order
you process third-party items by creating a normal sales order. In overview for the order, you can then overwrite the default item category (TAN in the standard system) with the special item category for third-party items: TAS
Billing Third-Party Orders
If relevance for billing indicator for the item category has been set to B (relevant for order-related billing on the basis of the order quantity) in Customizing, the system includes the order in the billing due list immediately. If, however, the indicator has been set to F (relevant to order-related billing on the basis of the invoice quantity), the system does not include the order in the billing due list until an invoice from the vendor has been received and processed by the purchasing department. In the standard system, item category TAS (third-party order processing) has been given billing-relevance indicator F.
In the first case, the third-party order is considered to be completely billed only when the invoiced quantity equals the order quantity of the sales order item. In the second case, each time a vendor invoice is received, a customer invoice is created for the quantity in the vendor invoice and the order is considered to be fully invoiced until the next vendor invoice is received.
If you have activated billing-relevance indicator F for item categories in Customizing, billing can refer to the goods receipt quantity instead of the incoming invoice quantity.
You can control whether the invoice receipt quantity or the quantity of goods received is relevant for billing in Customizing for copying control for billing at item level.
FOR YOUR PROCESS Individual Purchase Orders WELL GIVE THE RIGHT SOLUTION
Individual purchase orders are used when your customer orders goods from you that are not in stock and must be ordered from one or more external vendors.
Process Flow
During sales order entry, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition item. The purchasing department creates a purchase order based on the requisition and the vendor ships the goods directly to you (unlike third party order processing, where the vendor ships directly to your customer). You then ship the goods to your customer. While the goods are part of your inventory, you manage them as part of the sales order stock. Sales order stock consists of stock that is assigned to specific sales orders and cannot be used for other purposes.
Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales
Customize the third party sales in summary:
Prerequisites for 3rd party sales,
Purchasing org,
purchasing group,
assign the Purchase org to company code
assign Purchase org to plant,
should not maintain the stock in material, it should be trading goods,
1. Create Vendor XK01
2. Create Material Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".
3. Assign Item Category TAS to Order type that you are going to use.
4. A sale order is created and when saved a PR is generated at the background
5. With reference to SO a PO is created (ME21N). The company raises PO to the vendor.
6. Vendor delivers the goods and raises bill to company. MM receives the invoice MIRO
7. Goods receipt MIGO
8. Goods issue
9. The item cat TAS or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and, therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.

Accounting substitution during MIRO
Hello Experts,
I need to define substitution during MIRO
Process is :
When material is received from foreign vendor, exchange rate used is as on the date of mat receipt. But the requirement is to valuate the inventory
with exchange rate prevailing on invoice date (ex rate declaration date)
Currently, system takes difference between invoice date's ex rate and mat receipt date's ex rate to exchange gain/loss.
During MIRO such exchange gain/ loss is posted to, say, account 611400 account
I need to define substitution rule wherein system posts such gain/loss to different GL account,say, 520430. So that exchange gain/loss on only such transaction is readily available for reporting requirement.
How such substitution rule can be defined.
Thanks in advance.
RegardsHi

Hello All,
I am facing a issue where in the partner profit center/profit center billing (VBAP-PCTRF) filed at item level in sales order is not getting filled during inter-company sales process.
I have maintained profit center in material master for both selling and supplying company code.
In addition to this when I generate a invoice "F2" system posts to the delivering company code's profit center.
Note: profit center 9999 assigned to both company codes.
Selling company code's material master screen shot:
Supplying company code's material master screen shot:
As per my analysis:
1. The profit center field (VBAP-PRCTR) is filled in with the data maintained in material master for delivering/supplying company code and when inter-company invoice IV is created, system is posting to this profit center, which is correct as per my understanding.
2. If I maintain some substitution rule using 0KEM, and if the requirements are fulfilled system fills in the partner profit center (VBAP-PCTRF).
3. If i create a order (non-inter company) in delivering company code then correct profit center (VBAP-PRCTR) is flowing from material master.
Please help me in understanding why the data in partner profit center (VBAP-PCTRF) is not flowing in during inter-company sales.
Thanks & Regards

SAP R/3 to External System RFC issue during Sales Order Processing
Hi Experts,
We have one Peculiar issue in our SAP R/3. Request you to help me in resolving this.
Order Processing:
During Sales Orders Processing, for every line item a RFC is being initiated from SAP R/3 to an external system called Trilogy Pricer to get the Pricing data.
Trilogy Pricer sends the Pricing data to SAP R/3 and the respective Orders are being processed in SAP R/3.
Current Issue:
The issue we are facing is that, once the Pricing data is sent to SAP R/3, Trilogy Pricer expects an acknowledgement (RFC_OK) from SAP R/3 in order to release the RFC connection. Intermittently, Trilogy Pricer is not receiving this or any kind of acknowledgement from SAP R/3 causing the connection to hang which is causing several problems.
For example:
On every business day, there will be 50,000 Sales orders.
So, 5 or 10 sales orders are getting hanged every day.
We tried to simulate this issue in Dev and Stage environments by processing 30,000 to 40,000 sales orders.
But we were unsuccessful, which means all the RFC connections were being closed as the external system is able to get the acknowledgements for all those orders from SAP R/3.
We are having this problem only in Prod.
Any thoughts to solve this issue is highly appreciated.
Advance thanks for your great help.
Thanks and Regards,

Sales Process for Packaging material (VERP)
Hi All,
I have a business requirement to set up the sales process for Packaging materials and the material type is VERP.
But system will not allow me to create Sales order using the same material because material category VERP needs to be added for the Order type OR.
VERP materials not authorized to create sales orders. I think we need toset up new process.
Pls help me if you have any idea about to set up the nbew process.
Kindly help me..
Regards,
SKas mentioned earlier,
1. See to it that the material with Material type VERP has tabs Sales org 1, Sales org 2, Sales:General/ Plant.
This can be configured in OMS2. Maybe already there in standard configuration
2. In VOV4, assign the item category to your Sales doc type and It cat. gr. VERP
Then in VA01, test by creating a sales order. -

PROCESS AND STEPS OF CONFIG FOR IMPORT MATERIAL RECEIVED AND SALE TO CUSTOM
Hi,
We have plan to develop new process is import the material at plant then repack the material in different size and sale
the material to customer.
I am not fully aware of entire process of MM/FI/SD integration part and process steps.
Can anybady help me to provide Entire process and steps of transaction and config process ?
Thanks in advance
Regards
TarunkumarYou are asking almost the entire configuration of MM/SD/FI which is not possible. Please describe your process where you need to answer for the following:-
a) whether the import material would be sold to domestic customer
b) whether the import material would further be processed in a plant
c) whether the import material would be cleared at domestic customs
For each and every above question, you need to follow a different configuration in SAP. Also first search the forum based on your current scenario and wherever you are unable to proceed further, please post that issue only instead asking for entire configuration.

Material substitution program for sales order
Hi,
I need to do a program with these requirements:
<<The substitution program (single process) must run for all sales orders as soon as Delivery block is set to VA and also when delivery block is removed.
Advice : Trigger program using an output type determined in the sales order>>
I need to know how to trigger this single process using "output".
Has any of u done this before? I've no idea where to start! Can anyone help me?
Tarick.Hi ajit
In VA05 itself you can see Ordered qty, Open order qty and confirmed quantity , Delivered qty , Delivered date .Even Laxmipathi also said same thing and i also agree with his words.
