ABC Analysis [Update Item Assignment Window]

Hello Friends
I am working on Inventory Cycle count in EBS R12. I am facing a problem.
I create an ABC Analysis for ##FGI sub inventory in M1 Organization on Vision Instance. Then i checked 22 items in my
On-Hand Availability Window. But when i checked Update Item Assignment window, it shows me 20 items. can you please tell me that
where my rest of 2 items are missing ? What are the reason or what organization parameter or what item attribute missing ? Do i need to do any special setup for rest of those two items?
Can you please please further told me that what is the back end process of Compiling ABC analysis ?
Best Regards

Hi,
Did you tried to re-initialize your ABC ..
I think it can be an issue that you might have defined 2 items later after defining all your ABC compile ,assignments etc.
And since your ABC compile is working on previous item it might not pick these newly defined items.
Thanks

ABC Analysis-Reports

Hi gurus,
In some reports output i found the button ABC analysis button.
What are the featurs of this button, can anybody explain it.
Cheers,
Sumith

Hi Sumith,
ABC analysis is used to classify characteristic values in order of importance for particular key figures.
Examples: ABC Analysis
An ABC analysis divides items into three categories:
A: Important
B: Less important
C: Relatively unimportant
Following are some of the examples of ABC analysis being used for different reports.
Purchasing Information System:
You can use the ABC analysis to classify vendors in terms of the key figure invoiced amount.
Sales Information System:
You can use the ABC analysis to classify sales organizations with regard to the key figure incoming order or material or the key figure invoiced sales.
Inventory Controlling:
You can use the ABC analysis to classify materials according to the key figure usage value.
Shop Floor Information System:
You can use the ABC analysis to classify work centers in terms of the key figure scrap quantityu2019.
Plant Maintenance Information System:
You can use the ABC analysis to classify object classes with regard to the key figure breakdown duration.
Quality Management Information System:
You can use the ABC analysis to classify vendors according to the key figure number of lots not in order.
Hope this helps you.

ABC-analysis in Open Items report

Good day, dear experts!
I got a task from my chief to find out how to use menu path "Go to - ABC analysis" in Open Items report FBL1N/FBL5N.
Everything I've found is a message "ABC analysis not possible here", Message no. 0K076, and old-old note for this message 414907.
Do someone use ABC-analysis for open items?
I think it's useless, but maybe I don't understand something...
Irina

Hi,
Nope, it is useful.
Execute FBL1N and select line items (Edit > Select All).
Then click on any amount column.
Then click on Goto > ABC Analysis
You will get the options to classify the line items in the A, B, C categories based on the % creteria etc. on that screen.

Gaurav

ABC analysis and cyclic inventory

What is the relAtion between ABC indicators and CC indicators?Why do we need to run ABC analysis for cyclic inventory?Cant we randomly assign the CC indicators in MM02?

Please see the below note
What is A, B, C and D Indicator for a material for cyclic count?
All the material may not be important for cyclic count purpose, it may be required to count
some items frequently and some items rarely.
A cyclic count indicator A or B or C or D is allocated to material in the material master
based on either consumption value (consumption X rate) or forecast value
(forecast quantity X rate).
The item with more consumption value are classified as A, and with minimum as D.
u201CAu201D indicator items will be counted frequently (say every month), D will be less frequently
(say every 6 months or every one year). Daily a number of items will be taken for count, some
may be with A indicator, some with B and so on.
Mark all materials that are to be included in cycle counting with a cycle counting indicator
in the material master record (storage data). The cycle counting indicator is used to group
the materials together into various cycle counting categories (for example, A, B, C, and D).
There is an option in SAP to have a fixed indicator for a material say A for a material which
does not have a high consumption value but it is important to count it every month, then the
material can be marked as A indicator in material master with indicator u201Cfixedu201D
In Customizing OMCO, for Inventory Management, you can define for each category the time
intervals at which the materials are to be counted.
Fields : No. of phys. inventories per fiscal year for cycle counting
For e.g. A - 12, B - 6, C - 3, D - 1
Specifies how often during the fiscal year a physical inventory is to be carried out for a
material subject to cycle counting.
The system uses this specification to convert the count interval into workdays.
Fields : Physical inventory interval (in workdays) for cycle counting
For e.g. A = 12 times per year and your Total Factory Calendar days = 300
The interval will be calculated as 300 / 12 = 25 days
Specifies after how many workdays following the last inventory count another physical
inventory has to be carried out for a given material.
The count interval is determined automatically on the basis of the number of physical
inventories specified for the fiscal year.
Fields : Float time (in workdays) for cycle counting
For e.g. A - 10, B - 20, C - 30, D - 0
Indicates the number of workdays by which the planned count date may vary from the current
date.
For examples :-
For the plant, the float time is five days.
A physical inventory has been planned for a material belonging to category C for June, 1.
On expiration of the float time (after June, 6), the physical inventory has not yet been
carried out.
Irrespective of the category, the material is parked for the next cycle counting run.
Fields :- Percentage of performance measure for cycle counting ind.
Specifies the percentage allocation of the materials to the individual cycle counting
categories.
The percentage value is used for automatic assignment of the cycle counting indicator.
For example :-
In the given plant, 200 materials are subject to the cycle counting physical inventory
procedure.
In Customizing for Inventory Management, the following percentage allocation has been defined
for the plant:
A materials: 50%
B materials: 25%
C materials: 15%
D materials: 10%
            100%
In the cycle counting analysis, the materials are sorted by consumption. After completion
of the analysis, the cycle counting indicator is assigned as follows:
The first 3 materials (sorted in descending order according to consumption) represent 50% of
the consumption and have the indicator A.
The next 12 materials represent 25% of the consumption and have the indicator B.
The next 49 materials represent 15% of the consumption and have the indicator C.
The remaining 136 materials represent the rest (10%) of the consumption and have the
indicator D.
Marking Materials for Cycle Counting
This step is only required if you perform cycle counting for the first time or if you want
to update the cycle counting indicators.
In the material master record (storage data), maintain the cycle counting indicator for all
the materials that are to be included in cycle counting.
You can set the indicator in one of the following two ways:
1. manually in the material master record. To do this, choose
   Material -> Change from the Material Master menu.
2. automatically using ABC analysis To do this, choose
   Special procedures -> Cycle counting -> Set CC indicator from the Physical Inventory menu.

ABC analysis and MC40

hi-
Environment : ECC6.0
We use the standard MIBC-ABC analysis which changes the ABCD indicators based on the turnover or u can say consumption.
Scenario:
We have low cost value components (say Bolts) but have a high usage/consumption. So based on ABC indicators, they come up for counting very ofter. We dont want to count them every month due to their low value but would like to make them available in standard SAP ABC analysis.
And NO, we dont want to fix the CC indicators for these bolts.
My question as per following?
(1) How can i achieve a situation that when the ABC analysis runs and provides a report that Bolts are A ( high consumption indicator-monthly), i am able to change the CC indicators subsequently for the Bolts to D ( once a year) so that i dont do the inventory count for them. ( I dont want to use MM17)
(2) Can i run MIBC analysis and then execute MC 40 for bolts (if this T-code will assist me since i dont know much about this T-code)?
(3) Can i just run MC40 or is there another T-code which will assist me?
(4) Is there a process in Standard SAP which will be enble me to achieve my requriement.
Looking for any information you all can share.
Thanks

Thanks for the response.
MICN is the only one that can update the indicator used for cycle counting.
Once MICN updates the Cycle count indicators, can i then go into MC40 or similar T-code, select the range of materials or material types for the BOLTS in the input screen and make a change on the CC indicators manually to D ( annual count)?
However, pretty often the cycle count indicators are precalculated by MICN based on consumption, but then individual items are changed to get a different indicator for specific reasons.
You may have a low value item, which is very important for your processes.
Based on consumption values it may get indicator C, but if you have differences on that item then it is a critical factor for your business, hence you want count it more often, thus you would manually change it to B or even A. (which can be done directly from the MICN report)
My requirement is : I have low value materials in high qty which show in Monthly inventory count due to high consumption. This is my target group to change the CC indicatos to C or D.
When you indicate i can manually change in MICN report, does it mean that i need to run MICN report twice, first to get the actual ABC analysis and then second time, select the materials (BOLT), generate a report and change the CC indicators.
I do see an option to input materials in the input screen of MICN but i dont see the option to input or provide the required CC indicators as a manual input.
If you could provide more information on the sequence of steps, it is appreciated.
Appreciate your support.

ABC Analysis report

Hii all,
i am using MC40 and MIBC for ABC Analysis report.
few materials, we are using very frequently, even in report its showing ZERO as a total value n total stock value.
please suggest me, why this report is coming wrong for few materials.
Thanks
nisha

I think you are mixing a couple things here and loosing the focus for your initial problem,
OMJJ settings of movement types are general settings. I really wonder why you have different values there in standard movements 101 and 201 than the the predefined values given by SAP. I never had to change that in the systems I have worked with.
a 101 is by design a planned movement (unplanned receipts are made with 501) hence the consumption control has a G to control the consumption update (which a tab in additional data of material master). G means always update planned consumption.
But this is only done if the movement is made agains an order with account assignment, otherwise it will post to stock (which is not a consumption)
The second consumption indicator in OMJJ folder "update control" defines to which consumption account the posting is made. the 101 movement takes the decision from the account assignment category, hence you find an indicator for each accounting type there.
a 201 movement is by design a consumption movement. the general consumption is set to R, which decides that it posts to planned consumption in case you reference a reservation, or to unplanned consumption in all other cases.
you always consume from stock and you enter manually account and cost center, so there is no need to for a consumption by account assignment. (which you dont have in case of 201, as you dont do a 201 in reference to a purchase order)
you did nowhere explain the movements that you had for the materials that did not show up in the ABC analysis.
you did not explain what selection you made, by default it looks just at the last 90 days. Are you certain that you had consumption postings in MB51 in that period?

Items assigned using EGO_ITEM_PUB.ASSIGN_ITEM_TO_ORG does not appear in GUI

I used the EGO_ITEM_PUB.ASSIGN_ITEM_TO_ORG API to assign multiple items (one by one) from one organization to another.I had created test items through the inventory responsibility using master item window and then assign them to another organization.
After completion, I checked into the database and the items were assigned to the organization i wanted to. However, these items were not appearing in any of the windows when i searched through GUI (Item information window or item search window) under the new organization that i assigned them too.
I tried changing few values that appeared to be abnormal (E.g: last update time was '-1' probably because i used API and not GUI using my user id and password).
Why are not the items appearing in GUI?Is there a step other than executing the EGO_ITEM_PUB.ASSIGN_ITEM_TO_ORG API correctly that I am missing? Please help.

Hi Stephen,
What version of MS Office are you using?
Are you facing the issue similar to that mentioned here: Acrobat/Reader: Attach to Email button not working for PDFs referenced from long URLs
Open Acrobat. Use the click-path Edit - Preferences - select the Category "Email Accounts". In the dialog there is the "Add Account" drop-down. Select "Add Other".

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information using Update Item action

I got error "The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information "I found out the cause is Update Item action
I need to update item in another List call Customer Report ,the field call "Issues" with data type "Choice" to yes
then the error arise . please help..

Thanks for the quick response Nikhil.
Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.
Site Lists
Engagements = 4456 (Errors on this list, primary list for activity)
Tasks = 7711 (All workflow tasks from all site lists)
Clients = 4396 (Lookup from Engagements, Tslips, etc)
Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.

HT1926 Have the same problem as many other users: tried to update iTunes on Windows 7 today; first message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 1

I have the same problem as many other users: updated iTunes on Windows 7 on Jan 26, 2014 and iTunes does not open. First message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 126)". When will Apple fix this? Don’t feel like uninstalling all Apple software and then re-installing it as suggested, as I am on a terribly slow internet connection while travelling in the DR Congo.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Patches did not update to client Windows 7

Hi
We have 2 domain controllers installed on Windows server 2003 STD. Also Group policy management installed with the these servers. We have installed WSUS server on the another server that installed Windows server 2008 STD. When WSUS server shows thelist
of updates, I have deployed the updates to the clients(Windows 7 Professional). When I checked the clients, it seems that it could not find the patches update that I have deployed. So, I go back to check GPO that I created to deployed update to clients(Computer
Configuration-->Administrative Templates-->Windows Update). I double click one item to see the detail, I saw it's said that supported on: Windows Server 2003,XP SP1, 2000 SP3. I thought that 's why I could not deploy the update patches to Windows 7.
Then I have installed Group Policy Management on the same server 2008 that I have installed WSUS server. Then I have create new GPO, linked, enforced it. But it's still not work. I cannot deploy the update patches to client. Kindly request any suggestions
for this help to deploy the update.

Hi Lawrence,
The problem is I deployed the update via WSUS 3.0 to install patch on those Windows 7 clients. But it seems that it those clients could get the update from WSUS server. From WSUS server, it saw the clients machine. I checked Group Policy that running on
Windows server 2003 domain controller((Computer Configuration-->Administrative
Templates-->Windows Update). Then I opened one item here. Suppose I open item "Configure Automatic Update". It has the message in the bottom of this message here said that "Supported on: Windows Server 2003, XP SP1, 2000 SP3".
So I was thinking is it possible that the updates could not deploy to those clients because the group policy still running on Domain Controller Windows server 2003?
When I built the new server that running Windows server 2008 STD and add the component Group Policy Management on that server. It will has the same policy from domain controller Windows server 2003. But when
I looked in the settings in Windows Update. Suppose I opened the item "Configure Automatic Update". It said that "Supported on: At least Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 or Windows XP". Then I not sure is it need to be upgrade Domain Controller
from Windows server 2003 to Windows Server 2008? When I checked the Resultant Set of policy from the client, it get the policy from Group policy domain controller, but I check Group policy on the clients. It didn't shows the policy that I set on the domain
controller. Kindly you advise me how to let the policy deploy to clients running Windows 7.
Thank you very much.

ABC Analysis report -Inventory

HI
Has anyone created this kind of report in B1 . I came to know that this report is kind of standard report in most ERP.
Can you please let me know how can i created that kind of report .I need to create that report as soon as possible so i need some help from you experts .
Thank you
Bishal

In general, two types of ABC analysis are available in inventory management:
1) classifying items based on their value of consumption or sells
Inventory Calss
% of Sale Value
(sale/consumption Qty*unit price)
A
70 - 80
B
15 - 30
C
5 - 10
2) classifying items based on their value of stock.
Inventory Calss
% of Inventory Value
(stock qty*unit price)
A
70 - 80
B
15 - 30
C
5 - 10
The first query can be limited based on sales documents or inventory documents (related to company nature).

ABC Analysis - Report Requirement

Hello Experts,
There is a requirement for report on ABC analysis like this:
I)ABC analysis on STOCK VALUE:
1)Report should provide the total stock value
2)Stock values of individual A class, B class & C class items
3)Number of items of A class, B class & C class materials individually
Also we need the above information, based on CONSUMPTION VALUE also...
Is there any way in standard, we can get these information in some form or the other OR even by using multiple standard reports.
Regards

How to use "Reference Structure" setting in analysis grid item

Hello expert,
in Bex analyzer, how to use "Reference Structure" setting in analysis grid item by example?
Many thanks,

The variable needs assigned a value, that's why you're getting prompted. When you execute the statement, it's not executing the variable and exec lines.
Having script output available in a grid would be an enhancement request.

File dates not updated in finder window (Mozilla only)

OK, folks - here's a real puzzler for you. I'm using Mozilla 1.7.12 to maintain a simple set of web pages. When I save an HTML file with Mozilla composer, the file's modify date in the Finder window does not update consistently. (The window is in list view.)
The date does not update as long as that finder window remains in the background. Selecting the window sometimes updates one file date (but not others if I've modified multiple files). Switching to icon view sometimes updates the file dates, sometimes not. Only logging out and back in (i.e., starting a new Finder) guarantees that all dates are current. This only happens with Mozilla composer - saving files with other software results in the date in the finder window updating immediately. It seems to me this behavior is new since I updated to OSX 10.4.3, but I can't be positive.
Any bright ideas? - Andy
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Is this causing any problems, or is it just a quirky behavior? For example, if you change to list view and sort by date, does it still get the dates wrong?
I'm thinking this is probably a really marginal bug, where Composer isn't telling the Finder to refresh the date as most applications do, but then, Mozilla does a lot of unMaclike things. Eventually the Finder figures out that the files have been updated though. There are probably a host of ways you can force it to update, as you've already discovered. You can also force it to update with a simple AppleScript:
tell application "Finder"
update every item of window 1
end tell
This tells the Finder to update everything in the frontmost window to match what's on the disk.

Answers: Multiple sorts for different rsum (multiple ABC-Analysis in one)

Hello
I want to do an ABC-Analysis i.e. on my ProducLines. I am doing it by using something like:
CASE WHEN
RSUM(Sales / SUM(Sales by) * 100) < 75 then 'A'
WHEN ... THEN 'B'
ELSE 'C'
END
This works fine so far but I need to take the column "Sales" into my request and order the request on that. (to get the "big ones" at the beginning)
Details on this can be found here: http://blog.trivadis.com/blogs/andreasnobbmann/archive/2009/09/18/abc-analysis-in-obiee.aspx
My Problem now:
I would like to do this ABC-Analysis Sales and SalesPreviousMonth and SalesYTD all three in one and the same request.
I did not find out how I can do different "order by" for my three different Formula-columns. I tried with UNION ALL but did not really get it until now (only the final result can be sorted, but I would need sort column in the subrequests to get correct A,B,C-Values).
Did anyone already have a similar requirement? How did you solve it?
Thanks for any hints.
