3 way match and value-based material only

Hi guys,
we have some problems with implementing 3-way matching in SAP for only-value based material type WERT. Problem is when we create a MIGO-posting for a WERT-material we get the error-message "Document doesn't contain any items" (M7061).
What has to be maintained additionally? Or what could be a better way to solve?
The reason why we need value-based materials is that we receive orders from separate legacy-systems and mirror them in SAP to be able to have 3-way matching within Logistic invoice verification. But the whole inventory management has to be still in the legacy system and only values should be posted in SAP.
Hope that you have an idea how to solve that big issue we have.
Thanks for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Tobias

If you don't need any inventory management on SAP but only procurement I would also consider the account assignment category to avoid having to deal with any value and material master in SAP. I can have accounting setup balance sheet inventory account for the legacy inventory then use PO with account assignment 'X' using account assignment to the balance sheet account. this way, the value from the 3-way matech will post to the legacy inventroy G/L account. Accounting can then post journal entry at month end to adjust this value based on the legacy systems inventory valuation. Now, I would carefully consider the division of duty between the legacy inventory system and SAP procurement not to mirror too much since it will create a complex interface.

Any function module to get Stock and value of material on a given date?

Hi Friends
Is there any function module available to get Stock/and value of material on a given date?
Thanks
Harish

Sorry I didn't elaborate the requirement.
I am asked to develop a custom report for inventory management. For range of materials it is required to display stock and value on particular date and GRs GIs for the range.
I need function module to use in Zreport.

3 way match and the gross amount (IR + sales tax )

Can we configure the system so that when it does 3 way match it includes gross amount ( sales tax + IR amount ) . How can I accomplish this?
Currently in our system it is not considering sales tax when doing 3 way match. Is this standard SAP?
What steps do I need to configure so that it takes gross amount to do 3 way match.
Thanks,
Kavita

The standard invoice block is determined based on the repsecive tolerance key for block or we have to set manually in the payment tab (header).
if required You can set the manual payment block on the vendor master records and this will cause all invoices to be blocked for payment.
Request you to go thru below SAP help for better understanding:
===============================================================================
Payment Block Key
Use
     Specifies why a document is blocked for payment.
     The following payment blocks exist:
     o   Manual payment block
         If you manually select a payment block from the list field to block
         an invoice for payment, the payment block field in the header of the
         invoice document is marked with the appropriate indicator.
     o   Blocked due to differences
         If invoices are to be blocked automatically due to differences in
         the invoice items, the system enters the payment block R in the
         vendor line of the Accounting document. The field in the header of
         the invoice document remains empty.
     o   Random payment block
Invoices that do not show any other blocking reason, can be blocked
in accordance with the random principle. In Customizing for the
Logistics invoice verification, you can set the probability for the
block. The indicator for the logistical payment block is entered in
the header of the invoice document.
Dependencies
    If you have set a manual payment block, and an invoice is blocked
    automatically due to differences in the invoice items, the system enters
    the manual payment block in the vendor line of the Accounting document.

Value based auditing

Hi,
what is the best way to implement value based auditing? Usually you have to use triggers, but can I also do it with data changed captue?
Peter

Hi,
thx for the link. I already know this page. But I need all the values that have been changed.
On the page you gave me you can find:
"The audit trail does not store information about any data values that might be involved in the audited statement.
For example, old and new data values of updated rows are not stored when an UPDATE statement is audited.
However, this specialized type of auditing can be performed on DML statements involving tables by using database triggers. "
I don't want to use triggers. My question is - do I get eather OLD or NEW - valus with data change capture?

Three way matching: the ultimate solution

All,
I've been looking for the ultimate solution and answer with regard to three way matching and how to make sure that it is always in place.
Up to now I used to rely on the GR based IV flag in the PO in combination with tolerance limits and MRBR for MIRO.
Lately the option if the GR and the IR indicator in the PO popped up but this leaves me with a couple of questions:
How do we know for sure that the goods receipt are always linked to the PO? (otherwise this will leave me a bunch of invoices I won't be paying)
How do we know for sure that all the invoices are linked to the PO? (Since MIRO provides me other options as well)
How do I know for sure that the invoice are blocked based on the right propositions? (I guess the tolerance limits but I really want to be sure this time)
How do I know for sure that the unblocking is done timely and is valid?
What's the impact of the document types in this story and how can I manage these best?
What it basically comes down to is that I'm more than happy to believe that setting the GR and the IR indicator in the PO is sufficient in combination with tolerance limits but I would appreciate it when somebody is able to talk me through the three way matching logic in SAP and the configuration impact.
Hopefully somebody can help me out.
Regs,
Paul

With regards to GR, if you are doing a 101 movement type Goods Receipt, it requires either a PO or a Production order to receive against. Receipts without a PO, 501's, 561's,etc should be restricted in the system. In most SAP implementations, the receiving department can usually just use the 101 (receipt against a PO) or a 102 (reversal) and 122 (return to vendor). So you should be pretty secure the receipts (if being done) are done against a PO.
I do not remember the table, but there was a table (at least in 4.7) that restricted the ability to do 2-way match (not allowed). You can also set the fields on the PO as required "GR-based IV"(WEBRE) and "IR Required" (REPOS field) to make sure it is required to have an IR and GR-based IV. GR Required indicator (WEBRE) should also be required if 3-way is ALWAYS happening.
I hope this helps?

Purchase Orders - Invoice Matching Option=PO with 4 way matching

Hi
i am new to AP and would like to clarify the following
what does the following combination mean ?
Invoice matching option = PO and 4 way matching.
Does it mean: invoice is matched against PO with out giving consideration for inspection and Delivery quantites ? because with 4 way matching, inspection, delivery are also matched, isnt it ?
kindly can someone clarify this confusion ?
Thanks in Advance

Hi ,
4 way matching should be with Receipt only , not with PO.
pl.refer following link to clear your doubts.

LIV- payment block- 3 way match

We are using 3 way matching and I have following questions
1- Can we post invoice document and system can apply auto. payment block- when the invoice is received before Goods receipt? ( GR is checked on PO)
2- Can the blocked documents be posted automatically when blocking reason is cleared e.g. completed GR?
3 - If we must park the document in above case, is there a standard report which shows GR completed on which documents?
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
If you have marked 'GR based IV' then system will not allow you to post invoice before you have posted GR. Even if this tick is not there, system will allow you to post invoice, but it will be posted to blocked invoice. When the GR is made, system will remove the blocking status of the invoice, which is then to be processed manually.

AWM 10.2.0.1 - I can not choosing Value Based hierarchy

I have Oracle client 10.2.0.1 software with AWM 10.2.0.1 . I want to build a dimension with value-based hierarchy . In AWM I have hierarchy editor with the two radio buttons for choosing type of hierachy : Level Based hierarchy and Value Based hierarchy . But the secod one (Value Based hierarchy) is disabled - I can not choosing this type of hierarchy . Why this?
Thanks in advance,
Aurel

Hi there,
I really would not recommend that you work with the 10.2.0.1 version of AWM. This version is fairly old now and there have been a number of important bug fixes added to more recent releases.
What version of the Oracle database are you running? And on what operating system?
I suggest that you consult the following link and ensure that you are working with the versions of BOTH database and AWM that are recommended by Oracle:

Three way match for Service PO

Is it possible to do 3-way match on Invoices for Service PO.
I am able to do 3 way match on Invoice for goods PO, but when I create Invoice for Service PO it does not check the Service confirmation.
Example for Service PO of 100$ when Service confirmation is done for 40$, I am able to process Invoice in R/3 for 100$ instead of 40$ for which confirmation has been done.
I am SRM 4.00 ECC 5.0 with ECS.
Thanks
Venkatesh

Hi Venkatesh,
We are also having a similar requirement. We need 3 way match for service PO's in R/3 in Extended Classic scenario.
I have couple of questions for you
1. Are you able to trigger service entry sheet in SAP backend from the Service confirmation in SRM?Is this happening in standard automatically when you create and save the confirmation?
2. When the service entry sheet is created in backend (replicated from SRM), does the GR also get created automatically?
3. Were you able to fix your issue with 3 way match and able to do ERS for Service PO's?

3 way match & ERS

could someone give examples for 3 way match and ERS

Hello ,
2-Way Match
1.PO & invoice should match
2.Quantity Billed <= Quantity Ordered
3.No Receipt required
3-way Match
1.Receipt, PO & invoice should match
2.Quantity Billed <= Quantity Received
3.Receipt required
If the invoice is matched to the goods receipt ,the price is matched to the purchase order and the variance is within predefined tolerances, then the invoice is cleared for payment. If the invoice exceeds the predefined tolerances, the invoice will be posted and blocked for payment.
ERS
ERS allows settlement of a goods receipt without receiving the actual invoice from the Vendor. The system can generate the corresponding invoices and post them. A vendor invoice is no longer required

Value based hierarchies and Period dimension should only contain 2 monthl

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what is value based hierarchies. And also can anyone let me know to filter the records in AWm because in Period dimension should only contain 2 monthly values (Oct. 2008 ( 200810) and Sep. 2008 ( 200809)) it is urgent.
Thanks
vel

The following definition of a value hierarchy comes from the OLAP Developers guide
"A hierarchy defined only by the parent-child relationships among dimension members. The dimension members at a particular distance from the base level do not form a meaningful group for analysis, so the levels are not named. For example, an employee dimension might have a parent-child relation that identifies each employee's supervisor. However, levels that group together first-, second-, and third-level supervisors and so forth may not be meaningful for analysis."
Typically this means that the source table has two columns, VALUE and PARENT, where PARENT has a (logical) foreign key relationship to VALUE. An example may be EMPLOYEE, MANAGER, where MANAGERs are also EMPLOYEEs.
The simplest way to restrict the values loaded into the AW is to define a SQL view over the source table with an appropriate WHERE condition. You then use AWM to map the dimension to your new view. E.g.
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW RESTRICTED_TIME AS
SELECT *
FROM TIME
WHERE MONTH IN (200810, 200809)

How to get ATINN value based on material number and Class Type ?

I have below SELECT stmt code which gives the correct value of atwrt based on materil no and ATINN.
However in quality system, it is failing because in quality system "atinn" value is not 0000000381. It is different.
So how can I get ATINN(Internal characteristic) value based on material number and Class Type?
-Obtain the batch characterstic value for the Material******************
SELECT atwrt
    UP TO 1 ROWS
    INTO v_charvalue
    FROM ausp
   WHERE objek = mcha-matnr
     AND atinn = '0000000381'   " 'US80_FRENCH_ON_LABEL'
     AND klart = '001'.
THANKS N ADVANCE.

Hi SAm,
use the Below function module to get the Atinn for Atwrt for thr Class and MAterial combination..
CALL FUNCTION 'CLAF_CLASSIFICATION_OF_OBJECTS'
      EXPORTING
        classtype          = '023'       "Class type
        object             = w_object "Material number with Leading zeros
        no_value_descript = 'X'      "Default X
        objecttable        = 'MCH1'    "Table name Mara or MCH1 or MARC
      TABLES
        t_class            = t_class   "It return the Batch class available for the above combination
        t_objectdata       = t_char "Return Batch characteristics(ATWRT) and their value ATINN in this table
      EXCEPTIONS
        no_classification = 1
        no_classtypes      = 2
        invalid_class_type = 3
        OTHERS             = 4.

1 ) GR/ IR account as a P & L OR Balance Sheet account ?
2 ) Reconciliation with material ? ( On control data tab in FS00 ! )
3 ) Line item ticked ? and Open Item ticked ?
4 ) Whether to define as cost element or not ?
and anything configuration point which I have missed can have guidance over that will be helpful.
Regards,
Sharvari Joshi.

Hi,
Material Account - Hope this is a stock A/c
1 ) Material as a P & L OR Balance Sheet account - B/S A/c
2 ) Reconciliation with material ? ( On control data tab in FS00 ! ) - No reconciliation type
3 ) Line item ticked ? and Open Item ticked ? - Only line item display
4 ) Whether to define as cost element or not ? - Not a cost element
GR/IR Account
1 ) GR/ IR account as a P & L OR Balance Sheet account ? - B/S
2 ) Reconciliation with material ? ( On control data tab in FS00 ! ) - No reconciliation type
3 ) Line item ticked ? and Open Item ticked ? - activate both
4 ) Whether to define as cost element or not ? - Not a cost element
You might need to check the config in OMR6.
