Planning in EC-PCA with material number

We have a requirement to enter Revenue plan data in PCA by using Profit Center & Account number & Material number. However, I do not see 'material' as a characteristic that can be added to the plan layout. The only available field is 'Representative Material', which we do not want to use. Does anybody know how to add the characteristic Material to a PCA Plan Layout? Thank you.

We have a similar requirement & found no way to plan utilising the material field MATNR. As you indicated, representative material is offered. We have elected to set up a 1:1 relationship of material to representative material for those materials we intend to plan and set the derivation rules as such. This seems to be the only way to accomplish this in PCA.

Billing plan reference joined to a material number

Hello to all
We have to join material number with a billing plan reference before the creation of the sales order.
The issue is that you can join a billing plan reference(with the distribution of the amount between the different dates in a percent) with different material numbers. So when you create a new sales order and you put a material number, the sistem will fill the billing plan.
In the standard system you can create a billing plan reference only in customising and joined to a billing type plan.
Is it any standard o development so I can have this relationship?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi Tonnetti
Billing plans are controlled by item category. In Customizing for Sales, you can specify that individual item categories are relevant for order-related billing by means of a billing plan. You can also specify a billing plan type for each item category.

REPORT WITH MATERIAL NUMBER

Hello Everyone,
I have successfully brought in data from multiple datasources into a multi provider. All 4 datasources have a common field and that is MATERIAL. The data in the multi provider is obviously not cleansed.
What I would like to do is merge all data that corresponds to Material A combined in the query. All data for Material B combined so on and so forth.
In simple words I want data by material number when i execute the query. So it will have to fetch all records for Material A and combine in one line or row. How can I do that?
Thank you much
Dave

Hi Dave,
Create a query on Multiprovider if you are sure that all the necessary data is retrieved into multiprovider and create a variable on Material if it is a characteristic. When you execute the query, Material variable values will be displayed and based on the selection of the material, you can have the necessary data. In the query, you need to take the order of the fields as mentioned below.
Rows:
--> Material
--> Field1
--> Field2...........
Columns:
--> KF1
--> KF2............
Hope this helps u...

Problem with material number

I created a material 20070730a1 using mm01 tcode. But in my program when i am trying to retrieve info for that material the select statement is unsuccessfully. But when i go for that material in mm03 i am able to view info for that material. Even i am using CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT FM to convert my materal number and i am using the return value from this function in my select statement. But still the select statement fails.
code is as follows:
FORM conversion_exit USING pv_matnr       TYPE matnr
                   CHANGING pr_temp_matnr TYPE char18.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT'
    EXPORTING
      input        = pv_matnr
    IMPORTING
      output       = pr_temp_matnr
    EXCEPTIONS                                              "#EC *

      OTHERS       = 2.
ENDFORM.                    " conversion_exit
pr_temp-matnr is send to an internal table i_cabn from there it used in select statement.

     WHERE matnr             = i_cabn-old_matnr
       AND   lvorm             <> c_x.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.

Material number suffixing with ! for some material in material master

Hi Friends,
We have uploaded material master data with BDC . but for some of materials contain ! sign at the end of the material number. Means , at the 18th charecter ! is appearing. but it does not appear in mm03 while displaying. and even while finding it from MARA if we put material number without ! sign then we can possible to get that material. and it does not allow us to crate material with same material number withought ! sign.
But if while creating material if we put material with ! at the 18th charecter it creates material with ! sign but while searchig from MARA if you dont put ! sign with material number we can not get that material as output and if we create other material without ! sign it allows to create the material.
Please can you tell me what is the reson why ! is getting added at the end of material number ... do any1 of you have faced the same kind of situation and found for what reason it is coming....
Thanks & Regards.
Praja.

Hi,
This is due to config. In our case whenever we enter 8 digit number for Eg:
12345678 material will be created as 1234.5678 a dot will appear after every 4 digits.
But when we actually look at mara we wont find the dot (.) .
We can do this by config by setting perfix and sufix to the material number. actually these characters will not be stored in DB.
It will be shown in output when the function module CONV_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT runs.
check config in OMSL transaction.
In TMCNV table check field TEMPLATE it will have the template how the material number should be in our case its ____.____
Your case might be ________________!

Material Number Truncated in ALV to Excel Download

Hi Guru,
I have a ALV program report. It has about 18 columns, but for some strange reason, when we download this report to an ALV the 3rd column which host the material number as the last digit missing/truncated.
For example if we have a material number in SAP ALV Grid as 1234567, when we download this the excel, what we get in excel is 123456. with the last number missing.
What is the best solution to fix this issue.
Thanks for you help in advance.

Hi Keshav,
Previously I faced the same situation, like in ALV grid I was displaying the material nos with output length as 15. Since in the Grid display you can readjust the columns, So after displaying we just expanded in the grid and try to download the same in excel. But at that time the ALV was downloading with material number field length as 15 ( What I set in my field catalog). Even when I saw the print priview I saw only the length it is showing as 15. After changing the output length as 18 in field cat I got the correct download.
(Here I am assuming that the question is raised for ALV grid display since no where it is mentioned the type of ALV).
Sorry it was mentioned in the question itself
Regards

Have to maintain a specific number apart from material number in MMR

HI All,
We have a specific number(X) for some materials that we want to enter in a material master, and when we create a sales order that number(X) along with material number should populate in sales order.
is there any field provided by sap to fulfill this requirement.

There is no standard SAP fields provided to handle your requirements in the material master.
You may need to use any of the unused fields in the material master. Following options I could think of;
1) Use of Old material number field (MARA-BISMT). But this field will not flow into sales order. You may go with an enhancement to add this field in the sales order -> item level.
2) Use of basic text or sales text from the material master. You need to add addtiional text type in sales order -> item text level in t.code VOTXN. By this way, when a number is maintained in the material master text field, this will automatically gets copied into sales orders.
3) Use of EAN/UPC field (MEAN-EAN11) field. I am not in favor of using this field as this may be needed in other purposes like electronic transmission of data with government entites. If this field is not used in your business, you can think of this also.
Using any of the above may eventually need development of customized report for your final reporting requirement. I am not sure whether any standard report will provide the details on what you are looking for.

WIP GL Account with Material details

Hi,
Can anybody suggest the table from which i can get the data of WIP amount with the GL account with Material number details. I have the WIP GL Account and i want to extract the data with material number. BSIS Table givnes me the amount and other details, but i am not able to extract the materail details.
Reg...
Shree...

Hi
As Per my knowledge there is No Table where you can get all the details "(WIP amount with the GL account with Material number details ). To get the above details as a work around you can add two Table MSPR & BSIS Tables. MSPR -Project stock , in this table you will get Material Number ,Plant wise ,stor.location wise and the WBS Element details. in BSIS You would get WBS Element Details and GL Account,
in SQVI Take WBS Element as a common Field in two tables. by this you will get the details as required by you ..
Hope this wil hlep you .

Service PO with material

HI MM Gurus,
I have a requirement where i need to create the service PO with material. I want to know the full cycle for service procurement with material number??? what are the settings required for this? and what are the steps require to complete this cycle.
Also tell me the accounting entries for this.
Please advice me for the same.
Points will be awarded.

1) Instead of material number you create Service master record( AC03)(you create Service condition record for the service master record ML45)
2) Service PO with K and D (ME21N)(here you do not enter Material number instead you enter Short text and in item level in Service tab you enter the service recird number and you can also maintain limits for the service..in Limit tab
3) Service entry sheet (ML81N),it should be released and than saved
4) MIRO
FI document created during ML81N once it is released,saved and Mat Doc created.

Validation on Material number

Hi , I am retrieving material numbers from a excel sheet into an internal table. Now I want to check this internal table against MARA table to see if the entered material numbers are valid or not. How to achieve this ? I mean what is the most efficient way.
Also , if I enter a value in a screen input field how can I check its validity with material number sin MARA
Thank you .

Hello Krish,
How you know which material number is wrong one unless if you use error log table.
See the below logic :
You can write simple logic :
Assume that your internal table is itab.
error log internal table
data : begin of itab1 occurs 0,
          matnr(18) type c,
          text(50) type c,
         end of itab1.
loop at itab.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT'
EXPORTING
INPUT = ITAB-MATNR
IMPORTING
OUTPUT = ITAB-MATNR
EXCEPTIONS
LENGTH_ERROR = 1
OTHERS = 2.
select single * from mara into mara
                                 where matnr = itab-matnr.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
itab1-matnr = itab-matnr.
itab1-text = 'Material does not exits'.
append itab1
clear itab1.
endif.
endloop.
Thanks

ERP - SD Sales orders with billing plan (material number change appear)

Sales and Distribution.
Regarding sales orders with billing plan.
We create the sales order and create billing plan at header or item level.
We issue down payment request(s) upon receipt of sales order.
Often during the life time of the sales order one or more of the material numbers are changed after the down payment request(s) has been issued and paid by the client.
Our issue is that prior to changing the material number in the sales order we have to reverse the payment(s), reverse the down payment request(s) and after the material number change re-issue the down payment request(s) and register the payment again.
We wish to find a solution avoiding all the reversals.
If you have a similar situation please inform how to handle material number change in the sales orders with billing plan.
Best regards
Lise

Dear Consultor SD ,
There is no setting to create the invoice based on schedule line.
What you can possibly do is create multiple deliveries based on the schedule line and
then invoice the individual deliveries.
If you want system to split the deliveries based on schedule line, then you will have to include Schedule line also
in the COMBINATION REQUIREMENT in VTLA.
Thanks & Regards,

Re: Material number with leading zeros (40 char long)

Hello Experts,
I am working on SAP ME 6.1.4.15.
I am having a problem with the material number appearing in production order / planned order request document in MEINT and failing there since the material it is looking for is with leading zeros (for example 1291 appearing as 0000000000000000000000000000000000001291) - a total of 40 char long.
But this material exists in ME as 1291 only. Can any one throw any light on this as to what could be the reason and how to solve it?
Thanks
Srinivas

Dear Srinivas,
SAP Note 1799009 - 'Presence of leading zeros is inconsistent over IDOC thus SAP MEINT cannot handle all inbound IDOC consistently' should help to resolve the problem.

Alex.
