2 SKUs for same product in SNP

Hello.
My client is trying to close the following gap. Can anyone please suggest me or point in the right direction so as to solve this issue.
We have a situation where for the same product there is the SKU A produced in the plant A and distributed to DCs A1 and A2 (letu2019s say the SKU A is to cover the South region). And the SKU B produced in the plant B and distributed to DCs B1 and B2 (SKU B is to cover the North region).
      The gap is, letu2019s suppose that the plant A doesnu2019t have enough capacity to produce the SKU A, the plant A request to the plant B to produce the remain quantity with the SKU B.
    Plant B produce and transfer the SKU B to the plant A.
   Plant A transfer the SKU B to the DCs A1 and A2.
Question is here SKUB and SKUA correspond to the same product. So is it possible to have different SKUs for same product. We have to do this as it is a business call. They want to have 2 different SKUs for same product.  Is it possible to do this in SNP interchangeability concept..
Thank you very much,
Sai

Here's how I'd do it:
Extend SKU A to Plant B and extend SKU B to Plant A.  Create a BOM at both which is the same but with SKU A and B at their opposite plants having one extra layer (having their SKU counterparts as components of one another).  Then set up T-lanes for plant A to procure SKU A from plant B (and vice versa).  So plant A will have two sources of supply for SKU A - a t-lane to procure from plant B and a PDS/PPM at plant A.  Also, SKU A at plant A will have some dependent demand from any planned order on SKU B at plant A.  And once again, the same holds true for the reverse.
Downside here is of course there are more manual steps in the execution process for the production/process orders.  There are probably other gurus who have answers as to how to do this as well.

  • Releasing a portion of Forecast for SAME product to SNP and a portion to R3

    After running  DP forecasting, can a portion of the forecast for the SAME product be released to SNP and a portion transferred to R3 ?
    The requirement here is for a product, say Prod1, demand comes from 2 Business lines. Through Project System u2013 PS module, system differentiated the business lines
    From a DP phase 1 perspective, client want to do global forecasting for 2 business lines
    The challenge we r facing is demand coming from Business line 2 cannot be consumed in SNP as demand comes in the form of Automatic Reservations and CIF doesnt have the capability to CIF automatic reservations. Standard CIF only cifs manual reservations. So client wants the forecast for Business line 2 (Note that this is for the same product) to be transferred to R3.
    So can a portion of the forecast for the SAME product be released to SNP and a portion transferred to R3 ?
    TIA

    Hi Visu, thanks for the reply
    So if If I want to release the demand plan as a background job to both R/3 and SNP based on certain characteristic(Business Line), I  am thinking of doing the below things.
    Release to R3 -- >
    1. Create a Transfer Profile
    2 . Create an Activity using "MC8T- Define Activities for Mass Processing" and assign this transfer profile to the activity.
    3. Create a Planning Job by selecting a Selection ID( that has the demand separation characteristic)
    4. Schedule the Planning Job
    Release to SNP -- >
    1. Create a Release Profile
    2 . Create an Activity using "MC8T- Define Activities for Mass Processing" and assign this Release profile to the activity.
    3. Create a Planning Job by selecting a Selection ID( that has the demand separation characteristic)
    4. Schedule the Planning Job
    However, I am not sur eif I can do the follwoing.
    1. Can I create a SINGLE Planning job to release demand BOTH to R3 and SNP ?
    2. If I am using Different Key Figures in the planning area( per business line), do I have the need to maintain a separate characteristic value in the POS, as anyway I can load the data from cube to these separate key figures based on business line ?
    3. MOST IMPORTANTLY, if I use different planning jobs to release to R3 and SNP, I can have different selection ID's ( per business line) and select these in the planning job instead of maintaing TWO DIFFERENT Key figures. do you think this is feasible ? Any thoughts/advice ?
    TIA

  • Multiple tool for same product.

    Dear All,
                   please guide me for my scenario given below:
    how work center is to be decided whether machine wise or tool wise.because one macine can be load by four different tool at a time.
    Regards
    Deepak Sharma

    Hi Deepak sharma.
    since u have Number of workcenters for same product, create routing for each work center, and create prod versions equal  number of workcenters.
    u can select the prodution version manually, while cerating production order manaully.
    There should be a capacity planning  for your work center.
    Have i tried to understand ur problem,if not please come back with some examples.

  • How to make Different Price for same product in one Sale Order

    How can i customizing my system?
    I need to sale for different price same product A in one sale order. And price condition type cant be manually. i can separate them by position. for ex. in first position: product A is one price and in 2nd product A with discount. i tried to do it by changing a price group for 2nd position to determinate a discount condition but it generates invoice split.
    Someone have any suggestions?

    Hi
    you can have it automatically determined after some custo and using userexit_pricing_prepare_tkomp in MV45AFZZ and RV60AFZZ.
    The idea is to use ítem category field (PSTYV) as a part of pricing data to determine different prices for same material by changing manually ítem category when creating a sales order
    - you'll need to create a new ítem category copied from the one you´re using and do all assignments
    - add field PSTYV, if not there, to pricing field catalog. This thread has an example on how to and coding required for userexits
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/1693234
    - Adjust your pricing sequence as per new table
    - Maintain specific prices in new table for materials with this new ítem category
    Finally, when creating a sales order change, when required, default ítem category by new one to get specific price for material.

  • Different batches for same product in one HU

    Dear SAP Gurus:
    I have a couple of questions:
    1. Can you have multiple batches for the same product on one HU?
    2. If the answer is YES, what do I need to do because right now when we try to scan the product ID which includes the batch the system does not saves the scanned batch on the HU but it leaves the one that the "Delivery Document" already had. We tried deleting the batch (leaving it blank) on the "Delivery Doc." but still it does not saves the scanned batch.
    Thank You in advance for your help.

    Mario,
    Be sure you can pack multiple batches in one HU in standard system. What's more, you can pack several different materials and HUs in one HU.
    I'm not familiar with RF but you can check this link and you can also ask HU experts on LE forum:
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/76/ea7c38b5e211d391cf0008c7d94f4b/frameset.htm
    You can use this transaction to pick and pack material in one step. This can be useful, for example, if you need to pick several materials to be packed into one handling unit (HU). You can select an existing handling unit or create a new one. Identify the materials to be picked and packed by the delivery number.

  • Reg..selling price for same product by sea and air

    Hi
    i have a basic question pl explain me
    my client selling the product to customer two ways by sea and air.if they sell the product by sea that is one cost(say Rs 12).If they sell by sea that's is one cost (say Rs 10),for same customer, how we define in SAP.
    Are we create two customer code for same customer or any other setting is there?
    Thanks&Regards
    Selva

    Hi Selva,
          This is can be configure easily,by selecting field in you condition table (V/03),here you need to select your org elements (Ex: sales org,Disb channel,Customer ) and also shipping type (VSART), and maintain the access sequence and condition type.In VK11 maintain condition record for that and finally you need to specify the shipping type in your sales order shipping tab (Air,Sea) according to that the price will pick form record.
             You may not find VSART (Shipping type) in standard field catalog it should be add from Conditions: Allowed fields,once you add it will come to filed catalog.
    Thanks

    Hi Experts,
    I am having a requirment for MTO Subcontracting order.The customer issues raw material for the production for the FG product. Now I want that the system should do the Planning for the FG by MRP & also to calculate the the raw material required. The system should also be able to created purchase requisition for the deficit raw material. The raw material should not have any financial implication i.e. they are are only relevent for stock posting & not for any valuation purpose.

    Please advise.

  • Multiple KMS keys for same product (i.e. Office 2013)

    So on this domain I support, they have a KMS host which is set up correctly for Office 2013 and there is no problem with it, but recently additional licenses for Office 2013 were purchased.
    On the volume licensing website, it shows Office 2013 and the number of licenses has increased as a result of the new purchase, so that is correct as well.  Under license keys though there is another MAK and KMS key.
    What do I do with the new KMS key?  Anything?  Clearly Microsoft have got the correct licensing total.  Never been in a situation before where licenses were purchased incrementally like this.

    "slmgr.vbs /dlv all" can also be used, this will display all product keys
    At a guess, MS have issued a new set of VL keys for the new/additional purchase, which I'd agree is a little unexpected/unnecessary, given you already have these products in your agreement.
    It's probably some kind of automatic action that doesn't take into account a previous purchase in the same agreement period.
    Yes, KMS is fiddly, especially the bolt-on aspects of Office. MS have tackled that, with the new ADBA approach, which makes things a lot simpler to manage via a builtin GUI in WS2012.

  • Can we generate two invoice  for same product in two different currency

    dear all gurus,
    actually we are in export sales
    so we are generating export invoice.
    my client is asking for another invoice in INR too this is called comercila invoice
    with this i ve to generate the ARE form
    so how to do this three things
    1.export invoice in foreign currency
    2.commercial invoice in INR
    3.ARE form with referance to this export sales
    with regards
    subrat

    Hi Subrat,
    I really dont know how this scenario can be handled.
    2invoices for the same order is not allowed legally also. So if the user is asking for it, may be first they need to discuss this with their legal department.
    If they say ok, then you may think of only an output, where you can change the values with a standard exchange etc. But having 2invoices in the system of different currencies for a single sales order will lead to lot of problems in reporting.
    Can somebody throw some light on this, on how to enable this without any problems.

  • Multiple users on same Computer - Licensing for this product.....

    We are using a Mac Pro with Creative Suite 4 - Design Premium and have 2 active users on the computer. We recently discovered that if user "A" has an Adobe Program running and user "B" attempts to run an Adobe Program at the same time we get an error code "150:30 - The licensing for this product has stopped working and needs to restart." We are then forced to re-start the whole computer.
    This is super annoying! Does anyone know what is going on? We would like to be able to seemlessly switch between users without having to close what the other one was working on.

    It is as simple as going to File>New Catalog and fill in the name for the your daughter's catalog ... then navigate to where you woulke to save the catalog ... I believe the default location is in the logged in user's Pictures folder ...

  • How can you block production for a specific product in SNP planning book

    Hi All,
    Looking for a way to manually indicate a decision to prevent production in a specific cell for a product in the SNP planning book utilizing the supply planning and capacity leveling heuristics.  For this requirement the resource would have available capacity during that time period.  It also could plan other products in that time period.  The requirement is for a planner to manually go into the planning book to somehow indicate that the heuristic should not consider that time period as available for a specific product, while still leaving the resource available for other products.
    Has anyone run into this before?  Any experience on how to stop a heurisitc from considering a specific time bucket  for a specific product as available for orders?
    Thanks
    -Mike

    Hello Mike,
    I haven't tried it yet myself but I kow that there is the option in the Planning Book to manually fix several periods for a specific location product. This will prevent the heuristic from planning these periods for the specified product. For details please have a look in the Online Help for SNP under key word "Order Fixing".
    regards
