Will MIM (Merchandize and inventory management) work with SAP AFS / SAP POS

We are implementing SAP AFS ERP at the head office and SAP POS at the retail stores.
We want to implement the MIM module for inventory management at retail store level. Does MIM work in conjunction with SAP AFS. A consultant was suggesting that MIM works only with SAP Retail and no other vertical SAP solution.
Can someone please clarify?
Regards
paddy

MIM is linked to IS Retail, not to AFS.
Nevertheless, you can always link and AFS and a Retail system. SAP provides a very convincing ALE scheme for this.

MM configurations for SAP AFS System

Hi,
        I'm working in MM configuration for SAP AFS production system, After uploading AFS Materials successfully and also created Purchase order to make a stock for that material, but PO created successfully but not able to do Goods receipts for created PO.
       Errors : Purchase order xxxxx has no items,
Once created sales order for the same material again we got the error while GR but error is different.
      GR is not possible for this PO number.
But material type is ROH , and its external procurement only.
Please let me know when we will get this type of errors.
Thanks and regards
Nisar.

Hi Nasir;
Some possible causes are;
1.     Defining inbound delivery (Or kind of a confirmation) in the PO LI level and not maintaining the document subsequently
2.     Not releasing the PO before the GRN
3.     Creating the PO with a material with Grids (AFS Basic Data Screen) and not maintaining the grid value at item detail level of the PO

Hi,
Your configuration will only be applicable for the documents you are creating in future. It will not be applicable for the documents you have created in the past.
If any such open sales orders exist with third party I.C., then just delete them or put rejection codes, and then start creating new orders for them
If invoiced cases are there, you really have to analyse the implications and then take the corrective measures.

SAP AFS Upgrade from version 5.0 to 6.4

Hi Experts,
I wanted to know if someone here was familiar with the SAP AFS upgrade from 5.0 to 6.4. I wanted to know how exactly they improved the areas listed below. (obtained from SAP Course). Your help would be greatly appreciated
http://www.sap.com/services/education/catalog/globaltabbedcourse.epx?context=%5b%5b|wdedaf||1||de|%5d%5d|
1) Improvements in the areas of planned independent requirements, seasonal concept, value add services, Combined order, productionu2013 warehouse interface
2) Production Planning Basic Data - Enhancements of AFS Bill of Material (AFS BOM), SKU Group Based Routing
3) Manufacturing Execution u2013 Collective Planned Order Conversion, Combined Order Confirmations
4) Batch Determination/Classification for SAP Apparel and Footwear
5) Handling Unit Management for AFS
Thanks,

Hi Ronny,
Thanks for the reply!
These patches you speak of, is it for the types of issues I mentioned in my first post or do they cover the entire AFS functionality? I assume it still requires complex configurations but are there a lot of complications with going from AFS 5.0 to 6.4, compared to a new AFS 6.4 implementation? Specifically with the grids, categories and BOMs?
/Cheers

Hi,
Please refer to the link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_afs50/helpdata/en/b2/53ae56cda511d2aca20000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
It will help you to learn more about SAP.
AFS Process will be as follows:
1. Sale Order Creation : TCode :VA01
    At the time of sale order creation - ATP will allocate the stock to the sale order temporarily.
    (In the transaction - /AFS/MD04 - after sale order creation - the stock will be temporarily assigned)
2. ARun : TCode : J3AT
    Actual assignment of Stocks to the requirement takes place by using ARun.
    (After ARun - in the sale order - Allocation Status will be changed to Fully allocated)
    (In /AFS/MD04 - the status will be changed to F - Fixed assignment)
3. Delivery Creation: VL01N and do PGI. - Create delivery.

SAP AFS-Retail Financial Accounting Integration

Dear all,
we have a scenario where the same company that manufactures garments, sells them through its own stores. The company is planning to implement SAP AFS for the manufacturing part, and SAP Retail for the retail operation. Both operations are part of the same financial unit, meaning financial accounting needs to be managed integrated for both operations; the same company is used for manufacturing and for retail (only one company code needs to be created).
Any experience with this scenario? is it possible to centralize financial accounting in one of the systems?
Regards,
Andres G.

Dear Andres,
There is an integration between AFS and IS-Retail. Please check this with your implementation partner. They will be able to help you with this.

Cross-company in SAP AFS...

hi all,
we are using SAP AFS. we did the all required customization for cross-company. There is no problem while using process for the materials that don't have grid. But for the materials with grid, in vl10b, we can't create delivery. Error is : No stock available for stock transp. & material & (Message code: 8W 356). But in stock lists, stock seems available. Is there extra customization step for cross-company process in AFS?

Hi, the AFS Cross Company Sales Scenario is based on the buildingblock J62.This scenario enhances the Standard Cross Company Sales Order Processing to process AFS materials and AFS Specific settings.

Grid value( Field J_3ASIZE ) in the report MB5T in SAP-AFS

Hi
How can i bring the Grid value ( Field J_3ASIZE ) in the report MB5T for particular STO in SAP-AFS industry solution.
I tried in the layout but there are no such fields to bring in !!
Help me out swiftly.
cheers
Maruthi
Edited by: MARUTHI RAM on Apr 15, 2009 1:53 AM

Dear Maruthi,
MB5T will not give grid details but ME2W will give grid details. Please enable AFS details for the scope of list in customizing for ME2W scope of lost
MM --> ME2W
You can create consolidated report using the 2 reports MB5T and Me2W. MB5T give PO with in transit stock and ME2W will give PO with grid details.
I hope this clarifies.

Direct procurement and Indirect Procurement in SAP AFS

Hi,
Can you diffrentiate between Direct procurement and Indirect Procurement in SAP AFS.
thanks
Aki

Hi Aki,
Direct Procurement
Raw Material and Production Goods
Order Qty: Large
Value: Industry specific (Like shirt in apparel industry)
Direct procurement supports the conversion of planned requirements to purchase orders.
Primary Processes-Direct Procurement
1. Determination of the materials and services required.
2. Create requisition.
3. Request for the quotation.
4. Quotation Management.
5. Vendor selection.
6. Create Purchase Order.
7. Goods Receipt and Invoice Receipt.
8. Invoice Verification/ Vendor Payment.
Indirect Procurement
Maintenance, Repair and Operating (MRO) Supplies
Order Qty: Low
Value: Generic (Machine Spare Parts in any industry)
Indirect procurement supports the purchasing of indirect materials and subcontracting.
This process can be dealt with using standard functions such as material requirements planning, purchase requisition, stock transport order, transportation planning and the handling of internal deliveries.
The cross-plant, internal procurement of materials can be carried out within one company code (intercompany) or by using several company codes (cross company).
Primary Processes-Indirect Procurement
1. Requisitioning
2. Purchase Order Management
3. Receiving
4. Financial Settlement
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Anirban Roy
