Alternative item selection at the time of confirmation.

Hi, please suggest how to maintain alternative items and also how to choose alt items at the time of confirmation of specific material.

Hi,
Alternative item has to be maintained in respective BOMs.
Give the same item no in the BOM for the alternates.
Double click on one of the alternate item, the header data for the item will appear.
In the basic data Tab, enter the ALTITEM GRP value it can be any number or character.
CLick on the arrow button that will appear after entering the alternate item.
Give the Priority, Strategy & usage probability. BAsed on these values the alternate item is selected during BOM explosion.
The alternate item group value should be same for both the alternate items.
For further details refer

Alternative items to be selected at the time of confirmation

I maintain alternative items by using alt group in the bom.But while confirmation of parent material,the material which has the first priority is coming.but if i want to choose different material then what should i do?
first thing:
I dont want to touch bom as user dont have authorization for the same.
second thing:
can it is possible alt materials will be selected on the basis of stock avl in sto loc

I know that on the basis of priority ,i can select the required component for confirmation but please tell me how i can select material on the basis of stock available.because suppose in bom i maintained 110022 material as first prioriry and i want to select 110023 at the time of confirmation .
I know user can change the component 110022 to 110023 on confirmation screen manually .
also if we dont want user to change this manually .
Is there any solution that all alt items will appear on the screen and user can choose as per requirement.

Alternative item sel on the basis of stock -2 items at a time by automatic

we r dealing presently with alternative item selection at the time of confirmation screen MFBF.we are thinking to make alt group in the bom by automatic sel with strategy 2 for all items so that on the basis of stock availability component will get selected.but my question is suppose we have below alt items for 1 perticular bom and at the time of confirmation we required 20 or more quantity ?how i can do automatic confirmation?
because by maintaining strategy 2 for auto alt sel only one component will get selected at a time.
220229-10 kg
220222-10 kg
220870-10 kg
220901-10 kg

Dear,
With stg 2, system will selcet as per the priority and usage probability. If you use 100% usage probility, then system will check only first item to satisfy all 100% requirement, and other line items will not be considered, this is what i told in the first communication. Hence you need to change the probability in order change material overview screen after running availability check, system will show as below in CO02 component details screen
Item -1 usage probability -100
Requrement qty --10
Committed qty----7
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
10em 1
Item -2 usage probability -0
Requrement qty --10
Committed qty----2
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
10
Item -3 usage probability -0
Requrement qty --10
Committed qty----3
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
10em 1
Item -4 usage probability -0
Requrement qty --10
Committed qty----4
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
10
Since you know the commitment qty now, You change it to
Item -1 usage probability -100
Requrement qty --10
Committed qty----7
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
7
Item -2 usage probability -100
Requrement qty --2
Committed qty----2
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
2
Item -3 usage probability -100
Requrement qty --1
Committed qty----3
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
1
Item -4 usage probability -0
Requrement qty --10
Committed qty----4
Issue qty----
0
Original qty----
10
Now if you do the confirmation...system will show the requirement qty as below
item 1 req qty = 7
item 2 req qty = 2
item 3 req qty = 1
item 4 req qty = 0
Now it need not be corrected during confirmation.
I hope you got the point. If not please give example as i have given so that we can understand...any other automation I think not possible

BOM selection at the time of confirmtion

Dear Experts,
My client has requirement that BOM should be selected at the time of confirmation if there are multiple BOM's are available for the same material.Is it possible ??.
Edited by: manjit_pune on Mar 7, 2012 10:07 AM

Hello Manjit,
As a SAP fucntion, BOM should be selected/exploded at the time of MRP so that SAP would be in position to plan the components accordingly. What the reason or benefit of selecting relevant BOM at the time of confirmation ??
In any case, this function is not possible in standard SAP.

Alternative BOM picking at the time of creating sales order.

Dear All,
I have on requirment and it is as follows.
I have 3 alternative BOMS for one material in same plant.Now sales order is created for this materila which alternatibe BOM will system pick.
If there any possibility to customise alternative BOM picking at the time of creating sales order.Please let me know what settings do I need to configure for this.
Thanks for your support and time.
With Rgds,
Babu

hi,
this is to inform you that,
1. since you have 3 alternative BOM's. so by default system will pick up that BOM which is first according to hirearchy level at the plant level.
alternatively if the same material is going to be used for different purpose (PRODUCTION OR PLANNING), SECOND ALTRENATIVE bom will be picked.
2. you will have to assign the BOM which you want to pick add it to the picking list (ASSEMBLY OF THE PRODUCTS/COMPONENTS).
in CO27 - maintain the range of components at component level with plant as same for which you have already created a BOM.
create a sales order according - that alternative BOM will be directly assigned to the sales order.
please check and confirm.

Goods receipt is automatically created at the time of confirming the transf

Hi,

Then i am confirming the transfer order through LT12, when i am confirming the transfer order the goods receipt is automatically created without manuallyy doing a PGR in inbound delivery.
Can any one let meknow how to avoid the creation of the auto GR at the time of confirming the putaway TO

In LT0F check in the initial screen -->control data -->weather the adopt put away quantity field value is 4. If it is 4 then the GR will be posted automatically.

Goods receipt at the time of confirmation

Dear all,
At the time of confirmation only i want to do goods receipt in the goods movement screen. So please suggest me the configuration setting by which i can do GR at the time of order confirmation.
Thanks,
Aravind.

Hi,
As others have mentioned, auto GR can be done in the below listed manner:
1. Maintain control key with auto GR. If you want only auto GR in last operation then create a new control key for which only auto GR is checked in SPRO T. Code: OP00
2. If you want auto GR only for few order types then for the respective order type create a production scheduling profile and assign that order type in production scheduling profile and in work scheduling view of material master maintain this production scheduling profile with auto GR checked in SPRO t. Code: OPKP.
Hope it will help you.

Janardhan,
1. Check whether the operation is assigned with Costing Relevancy Indicator and has a control key relevant for costing.
2. Check whether in the routing the activity type is seen and it has some standard values maintained.

Restrict user to delete item in good movement at the time of confirmation

Hi ,
I have one requirement i.e. When user confirming the partial confirmation and if he selected the goods movement button i have to restrict the user not to change the material quantities in the goodsmovement screen.How i can do it .Is there any user-exits to do so, if any plz give me more info .
Regards,
Anand

Hi
Try any of the below enhancements
CONFPP01
With this customer enhancement you can determine your own default values
(ones that deviate from SAP logic) for a confirmation. The confirmation
can be changed in the customer enhancement.
The following are copied to the interface: the operation in the order
(AFVGD), the order header (CAUFVD) and the confirmation (AFRUD) as well
as the confirmation parameters (TCORU). The confirmation is copied back
from the customer enhancement to the SAP standard program.
CONFPP02
With this customer enhancement you can make your own checks of the
confirmation after the SAP checks have taken place. The confirmation
cannot be changed.
The following are copied to the interface: the operation in the order
(AFVGD), the complete order header (CAUFVD) and the confirmation
(AFRUD).
CONFPP03
With this customer enhancement you can make your own checks once an
operation has been selected for confirmation. The data cannot be
changed.
The following are copied to the interface: the operation in the order
(AFVGD) and the complete order header (CAUFVD).
CONFPP04
With this customer enhancement you can carry out your own checks on the
confirmation. The confirmation can for example be changed depending on
the user's entries.
The following are copied to the interface: the operation in the order
(AFVGD), the complete order header (CAUFVD) and the confirmation
(AFRUD). The confirmation is copied back from the customer enhancement
to the SAP standard program.
CONFPP05
With this customer enhancement you can update your own data once you
have saved the confirmation. You cannot change the confirmations.
In this customer enhancement it is strictly FORBIDDEN to send error
messages or other messages because otherwise there is the danger that
data will be inconsistent. SAP takes no responsibility for this !!!
The following are copied to the interface: a table with all the
confirmations (AFRUD) created in this transaction and a table with the
order headers (CAUFVD) that belong to it.
CONFPP06
With this enhancement you can determine which data from a manually
entered confirmation is transferred to the automatically created
confirmations, for example, when a confirmation is entered for a
milestone operation.
In addition to the order data (IS_CAUFVD) and operation data (IS_AFVGD),
the confirmation type (I_CONF_TYPE) is also transferred. The data from
the manually entered confirmation is imported via the structure
IS_AFRUD_MAIN and the data determined by the system for the
automatically created confirmation is imported via the structure
IS_ACT_DATA.
The data from the automatically created confirmation can then be
modified and exported via the structure ES_ACT_DATA.
CONFPP07
With this enhancement you can define your own detail areas (screens)
that can be issued for the single screen entry of time ticket
confirmations.
Two function modules are available to implement the flow control for the
customer-defined screens. While the function module EXIT_SAPLCORU_S_100
transmits the data from the confirmation, order, operation and work
center, the entered confirmation data can be exported using the function
module EXIT_SAPLCORU_S_101 and the structure ES_AFRUD.

Automatic goods movement at the time of confirmation in IW42

Hey gurus,
In a maintenance order i ve reserved some materials to be issued from the stores. Now i am not issuing the reserved materials from the stores and going to iw42 for confirming the operations of the order. If i select the item overview of the operation line against which we have booked the material, in the goods movement section i can see my reserved material which hasn't been issued from the stores. Now when i'm saving the confirmation, goods movement of the unissued material is automatically taking place and the cost of the material is getting booked in the order. How do i stop this automatic posting of material?

Abhishek

Batch selection at the time of GR for Process Order

HI experts,
I have the following problem -
I have got a process order of 51, at the time of order creation I have assigned/created 2 batches for the process order using some development and making use of user field. Now at the time of GR after final confirmation, I want to select the batch number for the required quantity, i.e I want to do the GR for both batches, and I want to select the specific batch from the assigned 2 batches. I am facing a problem that , the GR by default selects the first batch of the order and the batch number field greys out. I am not able to select the second batch if I go for second GR of the same process order.
How can I make the field selectable , such that I can select the required batch at the time of GR.

There is a possibility to use batch split- kindly check if you are able to do this

House Bank selection at the time of Payment run

Hello All,
At the time of automatic payment program, The user has to select the house bank for the payment irrespective of ranking order maintained in the FBZP. And I dont want to give the house bank in all the line item at the time of posting or reallocate at the time of payment run.
Is there any option to maintain the house bank in a single place before the payment run, so that for that particular payment run picks the house bank.
Hope the question is clear.
Raja.A

Hi,
the user should use the "available amounts" in bank selection and put zero in the bank he doesn't want to use, and put an amount in the bank he wants tu use.
The available amounts may be changed from the F110 transaction, environment menu, maintain config, bank determination.

Recording of temperature, power and speed at the time of confirmation

Hi experts,
My client requires to record the temperature,power and speed of the equipment while doing the phase wise confirmation. I'm planning to put inspection characteristics for the operations. I'm not going to use PI sheet.
Is this inspection characteristics assignment to record the parameters is correct?
Any other option to do this apart from PI sheet.
Anybody help me.
Naren

Dear ,
It will be better to capature those parametres as Inspection Characterstic before confirmation posting .
However , if you want to capture as activity through certail formula key and activity price , then you can identify them as Satndard Values as like Labour , Machine and Setup .
Go-to : OP7B "Parameters Overview"
Define your requirements Eg. For Power u2013 say ZELECT like that
(Short Key work/Keyword u2013 Electricity, Dimension " Energy", Std. Value Unit u2013 KWH)
Then Go-to : OP19 " Standard Value Key Formula : Overview "
Select SAP1 u2013 Normal Production and Copy as (F6) and Create new Activity Type Say eg. ZELE
Then Assign this new Parameter ZELECT and save (handle the transport request)
For Formula Definition :
Go-to : OP54 "Formula Definition"
Select SAP002 u2013 Prod.: Machine Time and Copy as (F6) and Create ur new Formula Say Eg. ZELECT
And replace SAP_02 with your Parameter u2013 ZELECT
Then itu2019ll look some thing like "ZELECT * SAP_09 / SAP_08 / SAP_11"
Assign The Standard Value Key " ZELE" to your Work Center-Basic Data Screen
Now Go-to Costing Tab Page assign your formula to your Predefined Activity Type for Power.
(Otherwise u2013 First Create Secondary Cost Element (T.Code KA06), Assign this Sec. Cost Element to your new Activity Type, then KP26 " Change Activity / Price Planning"
Assign Activity Type in Work Center Costing Tab & Assign Your Formula)
You can assign max. 6 Standard Values to your WC, I.e If you want to capture Power & Fuel Consumption for an Operation you can have both parameters set as per above procedure

Manual BOM selection at the time of order creation

Dear Experts,
Could you help me to understand if there is any provision to select BOM by user at the time of order creation without the help of production version.Is there any configuration required to make BOM selected manually.
Regards,
Krishna Mohan

Hi karishna,
Please go to T-code OPL8 and in production version use( 1 )Manual selection of production version. Then user can select manually instead of automatic selection.
