ABC Indicator sap PM

Hi PM gurus
I have a problem. I change a ABC Indicator value of Functional Locations to A via transaction IL02. However, when i get a report with transaction IW38, I dont see A value in ABC Indicator field in some of the Functional Locations. I am sure I have changed and saved the value of that field. What may be the reason? Do you have any idea? Thanks in advance

check the change history, maybe someone else has changed it again.

Vendor report for ABC indicator field

Hi All,
My client uses field ABC indicator in the purchasing data view of the vendor master. They want to have reports based on this field.
Are there any standard reports in SAP which can give total purchased value and quantity for a vendor with specific value of ABC indicator?

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

ABC Indicator field in PM MODULE

Hi gurus,
I have a problem. I change a ABC Indicator value of Functional Locations to A via transaction IL02. However, when i get a report with transaction IW38, I dont see A value in ABC Indicator field in some of the Functional Locations. I am sure I have changed and saved the value of that field. What may be the reason? Do you have any idea? Thanks in advance....

Hi,
The value shown on IW38 will be the ABC Indicator as recorded on the order. When the order was created this value would have defaulted from the functional location. If you later change the functional location value, that is not updated on existing orders.
You can change the ABC Indicator value directly on the orders location tab (provided it is not completed).

Inside the report you will be seeing the list of materials with their old as well as new ABC indicators .Now select the material and click on the double-line item .Here u can see the consumption quantity and value for the input period
Regards
Sandeep

Regarding ABC indicator

Hi,
In our organization if material consumption is more than 1000Qty it will be considered as A category and if it is between 500 to 1000 then B category and less than 500 is C category. Where we can define this in SAP.
Thanks and Regards

Updating abc indicator

how to the system updates the ABC indicator in the material master data.....on what basis......is there any program we should run ..
Please explain

Tcode is MC40
ABC Analysis is a key concept by which large quantities of organizational data can be classified depending upon its importance. Such data can relate to material or processes. ABC analysis is mostly associated with inventoy ABC analysis. However, in SAP the ABC analysis functionality can not only be used for inventory analysis, but also for other processes such as S & D, plant maintenance, production, purchasing etc.
ABC analysis is available in SAP, however, companies need to follow a certain set of steps through which they can perform ABC analysis. Listed below are the steps required for ABC analysis in SAP.
1. ABC Analysis Goal - Before doing ABC analysis, companies need to know what the goal of such ABC analysis will be, goal setting is the first step in ABC analysis.
2. Analysis Area - Determining the area to be analyzed is the next step in the process. Companies need to identify thearea for which ABC analysis will be done such as inventory, purchasing, plant maintenance etc.
3. Data Basis - The third step is calculation of the data basis. This ensures consistency of the data to be analyzed. Data basis may consist of characteristics such as inventory number, key figure, consumption, production, spending on plant maintenance etc.
4. ABC Strategy - In this step, the ABC strategy and class boundaries are defined based on which the actual analysis would be done. In the ABC strategy, segment sizes need to be defined for example inventory value A category - 70%, B category - 20%, and C category - 10%.
5. Assigning Classes - This is last step in which one defines the class limits and assigns such classes. Note that one can define both the upper and lower limits of the classes. When such class assignment is complete, SAP calculates rank or material as a total percentage of total inventory value.

Customize ABC Indicator (MAABC)?

Hello,
Is it possible to change the existing values in the field MAABC (ABC Indicator) in Material Master (screen MRP1). Or enter additional entries?
Thanks in advance

Hi Kristin,
I'd tested in ECC 6.0, now I have verified this issue in 46C, and unfortunately, after more checks on this issue I have to say, that there is no way in SAP standard system to include additional values (e.g.:D) for MARC-MAABC in your release (there is no "check table" for the field MARC-MAABC in SE11 and hence it's not configurable).
Kindly note that as this is a standard R/3 Domain, it does not allow any changes to be made to it. As a workaround You could consider creating a copy of this domain and may be add additional values to the value range. However this would
clearly be a modification to the standard SAP system and will not be supported by SAP. (check carefully it)

Mauro

Updation of ABC indicator in Material Master

Hi,
For ABC analysis, I carried out it according to T_code MC40(Usage value). I got the category of material. For eg "A".But how the ABC indicator updates in Material master.Because I couldnt get indicator in MRP1 view.
Whats the right way? Pls guide me.
Thanks,
Goraksh.

Hi,
Update of consumption is based on movement type, and you can decide which movement types should have or have not consumption updating.
Check in transaction OMJJ if the movement types in question have indicator "Consumption posting" (field V_156_VC-KZVBU) as marked.
If it is the case, consumption is updated, opposite for un-ticked.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.

ABC indicator removal

Hi
Having some clarification cycle count indicator...
1) How to mass remove the ABC indicator set for the material master ?
ie, mass change from a indicator specified to blank field.
I believe this is kind of basic qsnts, really appreciated your support.
Thanks
MM

Hi,
Just tested this out in my system and it works. Here's what I did.
1) Execute MM17
2) Choose Fields Tab --> Search for MARC-ABCIN and then highlight and execute
3) Enter Material and Plant then execute
4) At the new values line, leave it blank then, click on carry out mass change button
5) Save
Even with CC Fixed indicator checked, I am still able to change the value to blank.
Hope this helps

ABC indicator in Material Master

Hi experts,
Could you please let me know if the ABC indicator field used in MRP1 view is Plant dependant or Plant independant?
We have 2 plants. So should we set this ABC indicator seperately for Plant 1 & Plant 2?
Thanks,
Pri

ABC INDICATOR:
Indicator that classifies a material as an A, B, or C part according to
its consumption value. This classification process is known as the ABC
analysis.
The three indicators have the following meanings:
o   A - important part, high consumption value
o   B - less important part, medium consumption value
o   C - relatively unimportant part, low consumption value
So we can say that this information in Material master is plant specific (Plant dependent)
Logically if we think the material which is of high importance and have high consumption in one plant need not have to be important with same level of consumption in another plant.
Rerward if it is helpful
Regards
Pavan
So when doing the bifercation of the materials based on their importance it is plant which is of utmost importance

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

Mandatory check for ABC Indicator- MRP1 view

Dear All,
I want to make ABC Indicator mandatory for ROH material type and to the particular plant. How can I achieve this?
I tried to change in customization (Change 'Field selection for data screens' ), but its effecting other fields also. because in the field selection group 51 has so many other fields.
Should I have to create new field section group & field reference Or any other way? Need your valuable guidance.
Thanks.

hi Vijay,
if you want to control it thru configuration then you have to create a new field selection group and then you can make the ABC indicator mandatory.
you can also use the user exit in material master which will throw an error message at the time of saving of material master if the ABC indicator field is blank.

Equipment ABC indicator mapping

Hi PM Gurus
Need some help I need to fill up three fields in technical object master data which is existing.
1.     Technical object type u2013 ( like rotating , fabricated , instruments etc..)
2.     Catalog profile u2013 ( sub classification based on identified object type like pump in a rotating object type)
3.     ABC indicator u2013 ( should be identified based on established parameters like frequency of failure and repair cost)
For 1&2. Technical object type - i had used the EQUI - long text field and if any match found like pump then it was identified as rotating equipment and pump catalog profile fileds are filled up . (Any best practices for mapping similar to this approach)
Any best practices / Mapping of fields to obtain the frequency of failure (like <1 year, 1-3 year , 3-10 year) & Repair cost of technical object ( based on this ranking of ABC indicator is to be carried out)
Thanks

HI
A, B, C indicators are used to classify technical objects according certain criteria such as importance from production point of view say A- denoting those objects failure of which causes production loss & critical to the process & multiple implications in process
B - causes partial production loss
C-causes no production loss (have standby)
This indicator has to be assigned to technical object prior to transactions & you will get the failure analysis once you do transactions over a period of time. After wards you will come to know about the failure frequency & it will not follow any pattern. Hence failure to be analysed based on object class/object type/damage/cause/object part & also location & manufacturer etc.
