Regarding PO Creation for a new plant

Dear MM expets,
In IDES Version I have created a new company code, plant and done the necessary configuaration settings and assignments.
When I am trying to raise a PO, It is showing Earror message
"Account assignment mandatory for material XXXX"
Earror message no: ME062
Diagnosis:
" There is no provision for value based inventory management for this material type in this plant. Account assignment is thus necessary"
Please explain me, why im getting this message,
thanks in advance,

Hello Mr.Sairm,
Thanks alot for your answer, My problem got solved,
I have checked the customization checking for the material types,
In Quantity/Value updating field,
"By valuation area" is selected as default selection for both quanity and value,
Now I have selected "By valueation areas" for both quantity and value
Now my PO accepting me to raise a po for standard NB document type, without
asking any account assingment category.
Can u expalin me what exactly the difference between default setting and my present setting.
Any way once again thanks alot,
Can you give me your contact number?
Bye,

Creation of a new plant

Hi Gurus,
While creating a new plant in real time, is advisable to copy a standard plant or define a new plant ? Please give reasons.
When a plant is copied what are the various parameters that are copied to the target plant ?
Thanks & regards,
Surender

Surender,
SAP recommends creation of plant by copying. Generally when a new plant is created it should be copied from any of the existing plant which functions similar to the new plant.
The reason for this is when creating we may miss to update all the required configuration and all the configuration tables with links would not get updated. This also reduces time of setting plant as you need to just change/add configuration where ever required in the new plant.
But if you are a fresher trying to test in your test system... create it in create method so that you will understand in the hardway as what all needs to be configured, it will be a good learning which you will not forget. Please dont try this when you are working with a client system as this make give you lot of trouble and need lot time to resolve issues.

Customization step for in New Plant in production planning.

Dear Experts,
Thanks for your continues support from SCN.
My company having one of the production process unit.
Already some plants (1000 ) are assign the process order customization. But currently include one additional plant ( 1001) for process manufacturing.
Basically create order type, production scheduler, production scheduling profile these are all the main thing, other wise what are all the assignment to be ensure , create and followed.Kindly send me the customization step for each assignment in our new plant.
( order creation to end of the account settlement itself)
I am waiting for your valuable feedback.

Hi Anil,
if all master data configuration is over in the new plant, you can proceed to crteate the required cofiguration for new plant.
if your production process is similar across all plants then you can simply copy all the required things from your old plants, or if the process is different in the new plant you have to configure the required settings.
as you asked what are required settings apart from Basically create order type, production scheduler, production scheduling profile these are all the main thing,
apart from above things. actually the configuration is depends on your Production process which you Follow in your business. as standard process starts from Configuration od SOP And Transfering Demand To MRP and Running MRP then executing the results of mrp in this case we need to configure SOP And MRP Settings First then remaining Production process configuration.
can you give the details of your PRoduction process then we can discuss the sequence of required configuration.
Thanks&Regards,
Venkat.

Reg:T-CODE for open and close period for materials(new plant).

hi sap guru's
T-code for following process
can anybody send me , how to create calendar to new plant . and what is the T-code to be use for open and close period of materials for new plant.
thanks
sakthi..

Hi Sakthi,
I am assuming that you are asking about the factory calendars which are assigned while difing the plant.
Factory calendars are created through transaction "SCAL".
Opening and closing of MM periods can be done through transaction MMPV.This is based on the company code.Before using MMPV ,you can look the last opened period in the transaction MMRV.
Reward points if it helps.

Automating album creation for a new project?

I have several projects (such as specific event shoots) with the same basic set of albums for that project (some regular albums, some smart albums). I'll have albums for specific subsets of the events (for my sports shots, there's Individuals, Action, Team, etc.).
I'd like to automate the creation of these albums, as it gets a bit tedious having to create a bunch of albums manually for each new project I create. I looked at Aperture's automator actions, but couldn't find anything related to album creation. Is there such a thing?
Thanks...
David

I'm pretty sure this is scriptable using AppleScript. I haven't really had the need to script Aperture so I can't tell you the exact syntax without looking it up myself, but it shouldn't be too hard if you've ever used AppleScript. Just open Script Editor, go to File > Open Dictionary... > Aperture and you'll get a list of the scriptable actions Aperture has available.

Pricing Procedure For A New Plant

Dear Experts,
I Have a Requirement For Pricing Procedure.
My client has all-ready Defined Pricing Procedure.
One new plant will be go- live next week.
How can i assign existing Pricing Procedure To New Plant.
Please Give Input ASAP.
Answer will be rewarded.
Cheers.

Hi,
Please note pricing procedure will be based on client or vendor or Purchasing organization.
If the pricing procedure is based on purchase organization then as per your query it seems you have just created a new plant then no problem the pricing procedure which is assigned to your purchasing organization will be triggered automatically no need to assign any where.
If it is based on vendor then you have to maintain the vendor schema and assign in the vendor master purchase view in the field schema group vendor.
Please let me know if have any further query.

Error in new plant creation

Hi,
I have created one new plant by copying a standard plant. I copied this plant by coping all the tables from standard plant only. While creating PR for that new plant I am getting the following error u201C Valuation Area not definedu201D. Here the valuation area is maintained at plant level only. If I check in Account determination(Table T001k) the valuation area for that new plant not updated.
If I check plant tables getting error " Error in foreign key dependencies.
How to solve this issue? If any one face this kind of issue please let me know.

Hi,
Please check at spro log- mm valuation, wheather the plant is defined as valuation area or the company code.
if not please aagain copy the tables to the plant by copying function and check.

Need clarification on Legal implication for creating a new plant in SAP

Dear all,
    My customer is having two manufacturing plant in India.
    One is DTA for domestic business and the other is EOU, 100 % Export oriented. In both plant they are manufacturing fridges.
    SAP implementation gone live on last july.
    Now they are starting Washing machine manufacturing inside the DTA plant for domestic business. But they want to go for a new plant to be created in SAP, they are not going to register that plant with government.
   They want that plant only for reporting purpose. I want to know will it create any leagel implecation while posting excise invoice or with Register maintanence.'
   Need your advice.
With Regards
R.S.Mani

I think you were asking from SAP point of view but I would prefer to answer the practice what should be followed from manufacturer's angle.
If you treat any place as a separate plant, the first and foremost criteria which you should look into is excise part.
From excise point of view, you need to get concurrence from the authorities to do business with the same excise group assuming that the address is same of the existing plant.
If address is different, then you should treat it as a separate excise group and accordingly, you need to have a separate excise group and series group and therefore, excise registers and sales tax registers will be a separate one.
Though your question should be answered in a lengthy way, better ask the client with their range office who will be the deciding authorities.

New plant created, how to create/configure personnel area & sub area for it

Hi Gurus,
I am very new to SAP HR, our clinet has plans to open a new plant for their organization.
Now we need to create a personnel area and personnel sub area.
Can you please explain how to configure the Personnel area and sub area through SPRO for the new plant?
Also, is it neccessary to assign the newly created PA and PSA to already present employee subgroups?
Thanks in advance.
Akash.

Hi,
You can create PA & PSA thru
spro : Enterprise structure - Definition - HRM - PA & PSA
spro : Enterprise structure - Assignemnt - HRM - PA to CC.
There is no direct relationship between a plant and PA&PSA info.
You can either create PAs inline with your plants or not.
It depends on your firms's enterprise structure.
There is no assignemnt between PA & PSA and employee groups.
You need to only assign newly created PA to company code.

Dilek

New Plant creation - Urgent

Hi all,
I have created a new plant 5500 and did all required changes in SPRO. I have created a sample material and tested mm configurations by creating its PR. while saving the PR, system throws an error that
"Account assignment mandatory for material VS_TEST_1 (enter acc. ***. cat.)". when i enter any thing in account assignment, this error resolves and system asks me a gl account.
we have also other plants in the system and no other material for other plants asks for account assignment category. What configurations should I do so that system does not ask for any account assignment??
Please respond.
Regards,
AI

Hi,
use t.Code: OMS2 and select ur mat. type and click quantity /value updating TAB, system will take to new screen and now for your new plant select check box of quantity & value updating and save.
Now try creating PR.

Config for new plant

Hi,
Scenario: We already have the entire config details for a certain plant (xyz). now the company has come up with a new
additionl plant wherein all the PM related configurations has to be the same has the exixting plant.
How do we do this? Is their an option for copying the entire set of config data
Thanks
Arun

Hi Arun,
If you have already done the PM configuration for the other plants then in that case, you have to first assign the new plant to the company code under which the new plant should be. This process will be exactly the same as the way the MM Organisational Structure is created SPRO-> Enterise Structure-> Definition-> Logistics General->Define Copy Check plant. This way you can define a new plant. Next if you need this plant as the maintenance plant then in that case you will have to Maintain the maintenance planning plant , which will be to create a same maintenance plant as the plant you created. Got to SPRO-> Enterprise Structure-> Definition-> Plant Maintenance- > Maintain Maintenance Plant. In the next screen press new entries and select the plant you created from the drop down in the first field called planning plant. This way you will create a maintenance planning plant. This will be followed by the assignmnt of the plant to company code SPRO-> Enterise Structure-> Assignement-> Logistics General->Assign plant to Company code. Next you will have to assign the maintenance plannign plant to Plannign plant which is done by SPRO-> Enterise Structure-> Assignement-> Plant maintenance and Assign Maintenance plannign plant to mainetnance plant.
This will complete the organisational structure for the new plant, this can be followed by all other setting and configuration which you must have already done for other plant.
I hope this was helpful.
Regards
Anoop
