ABC indicator for project stock

Is there a way to run MIBC and assign abc indicator to project stock that is not valuated or even for the part numbers to show up on this list? What needs to be done in order for this to show up on the report? IS there a way to make it valuated and but not company own stock valuation?

Hello Kimberly,
MIBC report will show the list of material based on the Consumption or Requirement and it will suggest ABC indicator considering the both factor.
The Project stock can be managed as valuated project stock or nonvaluated project stock.
For more details, please have a look on the following link

Hope this helps.

I am trying to post goods receipt for a Purchase Order which is created for project stock.
When I am enter P.O. no. in MIGO and press enter, i receive following message.
"Purchase order 8000009614 has no items"
"Message no. M7033"
Is there anything which is missing in project system. are any thing else.
Kindly help
Regards

Hi
Check
1. You are choosing correct options in MIGO screen (some times plant field will pop up next to PO number which may be different from that used in PO)
2. Check GR indicator has been ticked under delivery
3. Also check PO has been released and no version has been generated then after.
4. Check PO is already goods receipted. Check the status tab in header.

Account determination for project stock delivery (for movement type 281Q)

Hello
We are trying to carry out delivery for project stock (CNS0) using movement type 281Q.
We notice that there is no account modifier availalbe for this scenario resulting in error during PGI. However, we can do PGI after changing the config of account determination without account modifier.
Since working without an account modifier is not acceptable for various business reasons, we must have an account modifier defined. We are wondering why SAP has not provided a standard solution for dealing with project stock delivery.
Can any one please suggest how to deal this situation.
Thanks and warm regards,
Jagadeeesh

We have business requirement as stated below:
We need to procure materials for specific Projects but also want to track the stock for the Project by value in the invnetory. In other words, the encumbrance of the procurement needs to take place against the Project but we want to be able to take it into inventory as a valuated stock and issue to the WBS whenever it is required.
Is this possible? What we know is that as soon as we give reference of the WBS for the Procurement, it gets expensed to the Project and we cannot value manage in inventory.
The reason for this requirement is there is a long time between when the item is procured and when it is used for the project. Till such time we have to track the Project items in the inventory as any other stock but its still tagged for the project and encumbrance would need to have happened
Any ideas on how to deal with this will be appreciated
Thanks

Manual reservation for Project Stock / wbs element

Dear Gueus,
In Project base Industry,
For Production order confirmation I want to transfer Project stock of raw Materials from Main Storage stock to Production WIP stock, from this WIP Stock, I will consume raw mtl at the time of Order confirmation.
Now at the time of Manual Reservation in MB21 system is not allowing 311 Q Mvt type for Project stock reservation.
Is there any other procedure / t- code to reserve project stock.
Pl guide me for the same.
Thanks
Umesh

Hi,
A word of caution, before processing any mass transactions such as COHV etc, its always better to double check the data. Reason is because the program performs mass update & any reversal would be a time consuming process.
Now for mass confirmations of orders via COHV
1. Execute COHV, in the first screen, select Order Headers, specify the order numbers in the field. If you have saved the list as a text file, then click on multiple selection & click the green icon at the bottom right corner, specify the file & the orders will be read.
2. In the tab - Mass Processing, select confirmation for the field Function & if you want to execute immediately, then select the same in execute function. Depending on your rqmt, you can have the log & also output the logs.
3. Click execute or F8, then select all the orders & then click on the mass processing drop down icon & click execute. The processing begins in foreground. Once the processing is done, system puts out a log showing the once which were confirmed & the once which were not able to be processed & the reason for the same. (For background processing, select the same in mass processing tab in the selection screen).
Please note, for order confirmation to take place the status has to be REL, also if any user status is active, check if the same allows confirmation.
I would strongly suggest, first try in your sandbox server & once you're familiar with its processing, then proceed to use in production system.
Hope the above helps.

Vivek

Moving Average Price does not get updated for Project Stock

Hello Experts
We have an Engineer-to-Order implementation for our client. Accordingly procurement is done per project. Each Project issues its PRs which are then converted to POs and recieved into Project Stock.
While assigning the material to the Network activity in Project (using material component) the system uses the price found in the material master (MAP or STD) as a planned cost appended to the project.
Problem:
while procuring the material, when we receive it into Project Stock (Mvt 101 Q + ) the Moving Average Price in the material master does not get updated. this way all newly created material master will never have a moving average price, thus whenever we try to assign them to the project we receive an error message (Cost for Material Component ###Mat.Num### cannot be determined.
Question:
How can I get the system to update moving average price (for all types of stock) based on procurement for project stock.???
Your help is kindly appreciated.

I'm sorry for the confusion
Case:
The T-code is CJ20N Project Builder in PS module
we are assigning material components to network activities under a certain WBS element in the project.
there is a function in the Project Builder to calculate the cost of a network. it uses the costing variant assigned to the network which is PS02 (We get the error here)
The costing variant has a valuation variant which lists a series of strategies to get the material price. Planned 1 if not then STD if not then MAP. (you can choose between many options via a drop down menu) you can choose 5 consequent options.
The MAP that the valuation variant is coded to get is the Plant Stock MAP -- Or the Project Stock MAP but only Per WBS element.
The MAP that the Actual postings update is the Project Stock MAP only Per WBS element.
This means that if you use a material component to purchase material 123 Acc.As. Q for WBS X for 10 $ then you try to assign a new material component with the same material 123 to WBS Y, the system will not get a MAP. because it's stored in QBEW per WBS element.
This way the system will never get the MAP right.
However, we don't always use project stock to procure for projects, for some requirements we can assign and use plant stock as well for Projects. that way we need the MAP from plant stock.
In the Valuation Variant you can use a User Exit Strategy. The user exit's name is COPCP005
My Suggestion is:
Use the User Exit COPCP005 to calculate the { Total value / the total quantity (MAP) from QBEW + Total value / total quantity (MAP) from MBEW } / 2
which is the MAP for both plant and project stock together, since that we are going to use both.
Q: Is this correct !?

Moving avergae price updation in material master for project stock

Dear All,
My query is pertaining to updation of MAP( moving average price) for project specific procurement ( as project stock) for valuated project stock.
As definelty the cost of procurement gets consumed by project .but i want to know does the project stock procurement still updates the moving avergae price or not.
Ex:-Suppose MAP in material master is 10 USD ( with qty 1)and i procure the same material ( qty 1)for project with account assignment Q for 9 USD . now will the MAP in material master becomes 9.5 USD or it remains 10 usd.?
Please reply urgently
Regards
Amit

Hi Amit,
If your Project Stock is valuated, then, the valuation data for it is stored in a different table: QBEW.
The normal, anonymus warehouse stock (the unrestricted use stock which is not assigned to any project or to any sales order) has its valuation data stored in MBEW.
The "Accounting 1" view in the Material Master MM03 ONLY displays the data of MBEW.
In the material master you will never see the valuation data of the valuated project stock (table QBEW) or the valuated sales order stock (valuation indicator "M" - table EBEW).
The valuation data for the tables QBEW and EBEW can be seen in SE16 or in the transaction MBBS.
Also note that these valuated special stocks are managed independently of the normal stock. If, for example, you change the Moving Average Price of your normal stock in MBEW, this will not have any influence on your project stock, as the data is under a totally diferent table QBEW.
I hope this helps you,
Esther.

Slow moving items report for project stock

Hi ALL,
We are using project stock to manage all of our inventory. As the standard slow moving items report (MC46) does not contain project stock (special stock Q), we would like to develop a report then. "Slow moving" should be identified by material, plant, storage location and WBS.
Has any had this experience? What's the main data logic for this report?
Thanks a lot!!

Dear,
Do One thing.. First goto MB5B - stocks on posting date and select to display only special stock indicator Q (Project). By this you can abstract all Project materials. Save the output into Excel. (The main aim is first abstract the project stock materials into a list with a suitable transactions - MB5B or MB52).
Then run MC50 or MC46 using these materials saved in excel file.
Try this.

Syed Hussain.

Problem with updating ABC indicator for Material

Hi, You need to have an history of at least several months of movements in order to do this analysis. You need also to flag "all articles held in stock" in order to select articles without ABC indicator. Rgds, Philippe

Report for Project Stock Balances as on a previous Date

Hi PS Gurus !!
We need to have a Report that gives the Project Stock Balances and Values as on a Past Date. The system gives a Current Status Report, but is there a Report that gives the Values for Past Date. This is a report for the Auditor's Interest.

Thanx !!

ABC Indicator for Equipment & Functional Location Same or Different

Hi All,
We can find ABC indicators in both Equipment & Functional Location (FL) master data.
Q. Please tell me....whether these fields are different for Equipment & FL or same??
Problem is that I could see the same field name ABCKZ for both Equipment & FL in tables V_EQUI & ILOA respectively.
Sundar

Hi Sunder
*The ABC indicator can be entered in equipment as well as functional locations.*
An indicator that is assigned by the procedure of ABC analysis.
The following ABC indicators are possible:
A - Important
B - Less important
C - Relatively unimportant
According to these criteria, "A" materials are those materials that are of greatest importance for the production operations of a company.
Examples of use for ABC indicators are vendor master records, material master records, and master records of *technical objects.*
So ABC indicator is same for equipments and Functional LocationBUT value may be diferent

Subcontracting multiple BoM levels for Project Stock

Hi,
We are an engineer / make-to-order manufacturer, so we use a lot of "individual" type materials (instead of collective). We are trying to subcontract several BoM levels of work to different vendors, and we are seeing many false requirements.
So we have something like this (this is all in project / wbs element stock):
Make hereSubcontract Requisition
Make hereRaw material
Subcontract Purchase OrderMake here
Raw material
Raw material
Make hereRaw material
The subcontracting items are driving additional false MRP requirements (planned orders and purchase requisitions) for all the raw materials under them.
I figured out how to fix the subcontract on level 3 by transferring the HALB material from project stock to unrestricted stock (411Q), then transferring it to subcontract stock (541) (Is there a better way to do this? Now I can't see my project-specific stock line for that item). But, while that purchase order is still open, there's nothing I can transfer to make the extra, false requirements disappear. Also, I am getting an MRP exception telling me to cancel the PO because it doesn't see the dependent requirement for the subcontract requisition above it.
Does this question make sense? How can we fix it? I need to get that subcontract requisition to see that its material will come from the subcontract purchase order.
Thanks!
Timothy

Hi All,
Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks very much,

EXCLUDE PROJECT STOCK MRP

DEAR GURU
MY QUESTION IS I WANT TO EXCLUDE PROJECT STOCK WITH INDICATOR Q FROM MRP.
SHOULD I TRY THE STORAGE LOCATION METHOD BY EXCLUDING A PARTICULAR LOCATION FROM MRP?
OR
IS THERE ANY WAT TO DO SO....PLEASE SUGGEST

Hi ,
Just my 2 cent idea ,
For PS MRP run MD51, system checks the available quantity of PS stock against specific WBS.
Please note that the special stock indicator Q for project stock will not consider existing stock.
Goto Run MD51 and then take MRP run again in MD02 and check the result.
I would suggest you use Master Data Level to excluded because is easier to control but depend on your business scenario.
As if you using Storage location , you need to have specific location only for PS and you need to involve Material transfer among.
TQ.
