ALE Distribution for alternate BOM environment
Currently the ALE framework does not support distribution of alternate BOMS between SAP r/3 systems. Does anyone know if there is a workaround for this issue?
Please provide any input.
Thanks.
Hi Stacey,
Have you looked this program <b>RBDSEBOM</b> or t/code <b>BD30</b> for alternate BOM distribution?
Hope this will help.

ALE Distribution for Message Type FIDCC2
Dear all,
I would like to confirm my steps below in setting up the ALE distribution of message type FIDCC2, to ensure that I did not do anyhting that impact other company code that already live in the system :-
1. Use tcode OB87 to add the Global Company Code, XBJ01.
2. Use tcode OBV7 to link a dummy (non-existence in sending system)
Chart of Account to the Global Company code XBJ01.
3. Use tcode OBB5 to assign the Global Company Code, XBJ01, setup in step 1. to the an existing company code BJ01.
4. Use tcode BD64 to setup a distribution with message type FIDCC2, and
filter with value XBJ01.
5. Create an FI document using tcode FB01 with company code BJ01.
6. IDOC is created successfully with message type FIDCC2.
Is there above steps correct? As there are times I receive an error message when trying to do a PGI with company code other than BJ01 "F1302 No cross-system company code is defined for company code TR01".
Another question is, with setting up of FIDCC2 with ALE distribution, any transaction in SAP that will generate a FI document will have IDOC created, right?
Thank you.
Best Regards
Chee HeanI don't know if you still have this problem but my team and I faced a similar issue in production. Due to a project we're handling, a tool that we are executing requested us to create a Distribution Model based on FIDCC2. This stuck hundreds of thousands of FI Document. Actually, for any FI document the system generated an FIDCC2 and it's not possible to reuse those IDocs because the FIDCC2 Message Type has a structure completely different from FIDCMT (the original message that the system should generate). We identified all the IDoc that should be generated and re-create the Idocs in the target system and the Idocs we posted correctly. We change the FIDCC2 IDocs status to 62 or 32 (depending if inbound system or outbound system). I recommend to investigate about this message type before use it. This Message Type is stronger than any other message type so it must be filter perfectly otherwise, for sure, problems will appear.

Production order for alternate BOM and Routing
Hi All,
In my business(Discrete) scenario I have alternate bom and routing has group counters. some times i should use first BOM and First group counter. Then next Bom and next group counter. But lotsize is same( prodcution version how to assign).
When creating production order i should select which ever i need.

Hi,
For your requirement you can define your Order Type Dependent parameters OPL8 as:
Production Version : 1 Manual Selection of production Version.
In this case every time when you creat your Production order System will ask for the Production version to be selected. You need to select the PV manually then only you can proceed further.
This setting is applicable only when the Production Order is Created.
It will not effect the Planned Oredr creation via. MRP Run..
Hope this helps..

ALE Distribution of Alternative BOM
Does any one know is there a way to distribute alternative BOM between SAP R/3 system ?
Any input will be appreciated.Hello Ted,
First of all for this you need to set up an ALE connection between the two concerned R/3 systems. Assign any or all of the following message types according to your requirement:
Message Type Description
BOMDOC BOMs: Document structure
BOMMAT BOMs: Material BOM
BOMORD BOMs: sales order BOM
I think BOMMAT is the one you are concerned about.
Once this is done then you can activate change pointers for BOMMAT through transaction BD50. After this create a variant for this message type in report RBDMIDOC. And then you need to schedule a periodic job for the report and the variant. This job will only distribute the changes that have been made between two consecutive runs of the job.
However you may check with your basis team if a job is already running for this report. Then they need to modify that job by adding a step for this new variant.
For manual distribution you can make use of POIM.
Please let me know if this solution helped you out and award points according to help it did.
With Regards.

ALE Distribution for custom HR infotypes.
Hi All,
We have a scenario where we have to distibute custom infotypes. Here is the process i am following.
Create Infotype 9004.
Created segment type Z1P9004 with all the fields in infotype 9004.
Attached Z1P9004 to custom infotype 9004 in table T777D.
Exteded the basic type ZHRMD_A and added the segment Z1P9004.
In we20 for partner profile HRMD_A, specified the extension ZHRMD_A.
Now, when i run PFAL, all other standard infotypes are getting populated and idoc getting created success fully. But even after entering records for 9004 infotype, i could not see it in my idoc.
I know i may be missing things for doing this. I have searched help.sap.com and sdn.sap.com .... but could not find any precise documentation.
Last but not least....I am bit new to this HRMD_A.
I would really appriciate if some one can guid me on this.
Thanks very much in advance.
Krishna MI have used exit EXIT_SAPLRHA0_004.
IF f_idoc_control-mestyp = 'HRMD_A'.
f_idoc_control-cimtyp = 'ZHRMD_A'.
ENDIF.
This will take care of every thing, i dont even need to populate/fill any segments, every thing is taken care by SAP.
The above change makes the custom segment as if another standard segment.
Thanks for all the replys...

Hi all,
can anybody tell me what is ALE Distribution Lock ...
regards
sreedhar rusumaHere is the documentation for ALE distribution lock
You determine whether you want an object, for example, a document, to be distributed via ALE into other systems by setting the status, for example, document status.
The indicator Distribution lock prevents an object, for example, a document, from being transported into an ALE system.
A change pointer is always set for the distribution lock during distribution even when sending within the ID PDM Solution. The system automatically creates a change indicator and a Master IDoc for distribution when you change a distribution relevant field, for example, status, for a message type, such as DOCMAS for documents.
It is possible to ignore the distribution lock when you send objects manually. In this case, the entire object is transported into the ALE system according to the distribution model.
Manual distribution is only of importance for change master records within the ID PDM system.
See also:
Change Master Record : IDoc Type ECMMAS01
Objects
You can control the ALE distribution for the following objects within ID PDM via the status:
Material
Characteristic
Class
BOM (material BOM, document structure)
Document
Object dependencies
Change master record
Activities
You can process the status for the desired objects.
1. Select in Customizing Cross Applications Components --> Distribution (ALE) -->Standard ALE Business Processes --> Logistics --> Master Data Distribution --> Integrated Distributed PDM Solution (ID PDM) --> Object status (for example, Define BOM status).
2. Process the indicator Distribution lock -
Alternate BOM Text from sales order
Hi ,In My report I need alternate BOM Text.
The scenatrio is : when we create Sales order it will ask for Alternate BOM ( 1 or 2 or 3 ).
Based on selection it will assign the BOM and Sales order will be saved.
I want how to link the sales order doc no with Alternate BOM.
I have tried so many tables : MAST,VBAP,VBAP.STPO,STKO,STAS etc but not getting the Link.
Can anybody suggest me ?
Thanks
KumarHello Kumar ,
you need to Link VBAP-STLNR -->STPO-STLNR.

Alternate BOM in Sales BOm Costing
Hi,
When we create sales order with alternate sales BOM we face a problem.I am using Alternate BOM 5 in sales order .But Costing is happening for Alternate BOM 1.By default Costing is taking Alternate BOM1 irrespective of alternate BOM i am using in sales order.
At the time of sales BOM costing system should take alternate BOM5 .how to do this?
Regards,
Guru
Edited by: kumaraguru v on Jan 22, 2010 7:24 AMYou can use Mixed Costing for this. Maintain Procurement alternative by CK91 & Mixing Ratio CK94 for the version you want to cost

Alternate BOM in Sales order?
HI Dears,
I am in a Pharma Company and i have one product with same raw material but in a diff. pack means i have a material said A with raw material AA & Packing Material BB and second one said A with raw material AA & Packing Material GG. {The product is same but in different pack (For Exam. : Paracetamol Tablet in 10x10 pack and 1000's pack)}
By useing Alternate BOM i creat the both products. But When i creat sales order (VA01) their are no any indication for alternate BOM (BOM version).
Please solve my problem as soon as .
Thanks
Sameer Kumar PradhanHi,
You cannot create alternate BOMs if your working with Order BOM in MTO scenario.
If you have created alternate BOMs in MTO scenario and wants to select this automatically from MRP then define prod version or selection criteria of BOMs in MRP4 view in Material master and please remember that 'Dont create any Order BOM from CS61".
If there is no order BOM created then MRP (MD50) selects the available Material BOMs. If order BOM is created then this only will be exploded from MRP.

ALE: how do I use dependent distribution for customer and vendor addresses?
Hello SDN'ers
Hopefully someone can help me with an ALE question.
We have two ERP systems connected with ERP - Retail and AFS.
Customers and Vendors may be created in Retail, and are distributed to AFS using DEBMAS, CREMAS and ADRMAS messages.
Not all customers and vendors are required in AFS, so we have various filters set up in the Retail distribution model (BD64).
However with the filters in place, addresses were still being distributed for customers and vendors that had been filtered out.
To try and avoid this for vendors, we created a filter group for AddressOrg.SaveReplica in receiver determination. In the filter group we selected Dependent Distribution for CREMAS (Address owner object).
This works perfectly for vendors - vendor addresses are now only distributed if the vendor itself is distributed.
However I've now discovered it is preventing any customer addresses from being sent! I was surprised about this: I expected CREMAS dependency to only affect vendor addresses. Can someone tell me:
- is this how dependent distribution is designed to work? In which case can anyone offer any suffestions to achieve the filtering some other way?
- or are we doing something wrong to be getting this result?
Thanks for any help!
regards, RogerHi all,
as Robert suggested, I've written an exit to get round this, although I'm surprised I should need to!
What I did was to code an enhancement in function group BDBF, at the start of subroutine COMPUTE_LOGIC_EXPRESSION.
* In the case of addresses, dependencies should only be applied for the appropriate type of address
data: lwa_tbd14 type tbd14.
if P_MODEL_DATA-FTYPE = C_FTYPE_DEPENDENCY_FROM_MESTYP.
* Dependency from Message Type.
* Read the Address Object type
READ TABLE P_FILTER_VALUES
WITH KEY OBJTYPE = 'AD_OBJTYPE'
BINARY SEARCH.
if sy-subrc = 0.
* Check if the Message Type is linked to the Address Owner Object Type
* (Table is buffered on DB)
select single *
from TBD14
into lwa_tbd14
where MESTYP = P_MODEL_DATA-FMESTYP
and OBJTYP = P_FILTER_VALUES-OBJVALUE.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
* Wrong type of address for this dependency - stop here
P_REPLICATE = c_true.
exit.
else.
* Correct address type. Standard processing continues, checking any
* filter values set up against the Address Owner Object Type.
endif.
else.
* It isn't an address - continue with standard processing
endif.
endif.
Let me know if this helps you, or if you know of a better way to achieve the same result.

Lot size in BOM as well as for alternate material
how can we define the Lot size and validity period for a BOM means we want to define that 1 to 100 qty are to be produced with alternate 1 and 101 to 1000 for alternate 2. How the same can be defined in the master BOM.
There is one component in the BOM and there is a alternate material is also, Users want to define that while issuing the material , system allow to issue only say qty " 50" and then alternate material for next lot.
Is there any possibility to define the BOM as per the above requirement.
thanks
harishDear Harish,
if u have alternative BOM's, then creat production versions
1) creat BOM with two alternatives (say alt 1 1to 100 & alt 2 101 to 200)
2) creat multiple Routings with two group counters
3) creat production version in MM02 in MRP 4 view or work scheduling view
4) in BOM slection in MRP 4 view maitain the prameter as 3 or 4
Then MRP takes care of lot sizes difined in PV & BOM and creat procurment proposals

SUB CONTRACTING PO FOR MATERIAL HAVING ALTERNATE BOM
Hi,
we are having following scenario for subcontracting process.
FIN1 material can be produced either from RAW1 or RAW2.
In PO for FIN1, in BOM assignment , BOM for FIN1 with RAW2 as sub component is assigned. But when thay want to make FIN1 from RAW1, system allows to issue RAW1 to subcontractor as it is maintained as subcomponent in alternate BOM of FIN1(not in PO) but while doing GR it gives message of " DEFICIT OF STOCK W. VENDOR UNR. 10 EA : RAW2 1000 O"
I thot that this msg is arrising as component RAW2 is not provided to vendor ( as it is maintained in PO a subcomponent for FIN1). So what I did , I added another item as FIN1 in same PO with sub component as RAW1, and then carried out the process, so it worked. But this makes confussion to user as there are severel items in PO, and to judge against which item he will hav to make GR.
So my question is, is there any setting or scenario in SAP to solve this issue?
Regards1. You will definitely create two subcontracting info records for two raw materials say RAW1 and RAW2.
2. There will be two seperate production versions for these two materials.
3. Update respective production versions in respective subcontracting info-records.
4. This will help to upload the alternate BOM even you changed the material from PO

Message type US for ALE distribution
I want to create an outbound IDOC using ALE distribution.
I have to assign Partner type as 'US' - user. Can anyone give me some input. I got the error when trying to do the same
" No partner profiles (message control) maintained
Message no. B1127 Diagnosis No IDOC partner profiles have been created for the message control for
for application EF, condition key ZNBR and change message '' with
partner type 'LS' and partner role ' '.
Procedure Please create the partner profiles for the logical system that should
contain the IDOC. You can either generate them from the ALE model or
create them manually.
Step by step will be helpfull.
ThanksHi Preethi,
You can use this program <b>RBDCUS15</b> to generate outbound partner profile.
Also you use distribution model (t/code BD64) as well.
Hope this will help.

Can anyone tell me how they are handling software distribution for the iPad in an enterprise environment?
The new Business Volume Purchase Program is pretty interesting...it can be used to centrally purchase and distribute paid ( not free) items from the AppStore. We are getting setup to use it. You can keep an eye on licenses etc. You can also use a single centralized form of payment.
