ASP/VBS Date as Serial Number

Hi,
Can anyone help in converting a date as a serial number (as a
number in
Excel) and convert it the other way?
Thanks,
Sanj

Sanj
Not quite clear what you are asking. If you want to build a
serial number
out of a date field you can use the DatePart functions to
break it into
pieces which you could then reassemble with any additional
code you want.

Stock data of serial number not suitable for movement

We have a situation where we have had to put some serialized parts on a rework production order. When we are trying to bring them back into stock, we're getting a message that says "Stock data of serial number not suitable for movement." I'm guessing that this is because this serial number had existed in stock before (since this is a rework of an existing material/serial number.) We need to receive this back into stock using this same serial number. How is that possible?
Thanks in advance for your help.

IO231: Stock data of serial number &1 not suitable for movement

Hi experts,
I have unique problem with serialized material posting.We are having serialized managed materials which are posted to quality inspection stock.The user was able to post partial quantity to unrestricted after usage decision but when tried to post remainig quantity it is giving error 'IO231: Stock data of serial number &1 not suitable for movement".I checked serial number history in iq02 & it shows that same serial numbers were used for some order in the past which is already delivered.I am not able to understand how it allowed to post same serial numbers again for the same material and if it is normal why it is giving above error when we try to post remaining quantity?
I tried by changing serial profile in the material master with all optional fields and without stock check and equipment and try to post but its not working.
I want to somehow post material to unrestricted use from quality inspection with or without serial numbers.
I am working on 4.7 system
Can u guys help me.
Thanks & Regards,
Sachin.

MDM suitable to manage "discreet device" data, like serial number, EPC code

We are exploring MDM as a replacement (and enhancement) for homegrown device master, but it's unclear to us from documentation whether MDM looks at "product" strictly in its logical definition (all physical products of same type has one set of data), or if it can have data structures to support unique device data, meaning each physically unique product, and its associated data being different. Best example is probably storing serial number data for warranty purposes. Ranges of serial numbers tied to a part # is not sufficient enough. Obviously this means pulling Customer and Product master data together. Any pointers would be appreciated.

In MDM you can classify your products based on Taxonomy.
Each Category in the Taxonomy can have attributes attached to it.
Ex: You could have two categories called "Digital Cameras" and "Photograhpic Films".
The attributes of these two categories may be different.
Ex: For digital Cameras, you could have attributes like "Resolution in Mega Pixels".
So when you create a product in the MDM, and assign this product to "Digital Cameras" category, then you can maintain the value for this attribute - Resolution in Mega Pixels.
In the Data Model in MDM, you can have fields and attributes.
Fields are information which you would want irrespective of the Category.
Ex: Every Product should have a Product Number, Product Description.
These are modeled as Fields.
Information which are Category specific are created as Attributes and these attributes are linked to the Category.
The attributes are category specific.
As far as possible, try not to maintain any transactional data at all in MDM.
Is Serial Number really a Master Data?
Ex: If I am manufacturing Transmissions of Model-Trucks, then the serial numbers are more transactional.
A customer could have bought more than one transmissions from you. You have to maintain the Serial Numbers for each of the transmission for Warrenty purpose.
This is more transactional. Else you will end up storing all Serial Numbers of all Customer Sales Orders in MDM.
Avoid treating MDM as a transactional system.
This is just a thought.

Just do trhe same thing you did here. Assign the value of the object.
Go back to you schoolbook and reread how to use variables. Once you learn and understand what variables are the answer to your question will be obvious.

27" Imac Order date vs Manufactured date - unrecognized serial number

I received my 27" Imac I3 ordered February 24, 2011 shipped next day Fedex on February 25, 2011. The Apple weight sticker is dated 9/22/2010! There is another weight sticker under it which I can not read and I don't want to peel off the top one. The serial number matches that week (QP038.....). It was "assembled in USA" and shipped from Mira Loma, CA. The only deviation from the 'standard configuration' was the substitution of the wired numeric keyboard in place of the wireless.
This was a replacement machine courtesy of Applecare for a 24" Imac that had 2 unsuccessful LCD panel replacements. I just got 'lucky' in getting 2 bad LCD panels in a row! Applecare was first class about it and I am impressed.
First, is this unusual to receive a 5+ month old machine?
Second, there is a little problem in that the senior tech I'm dealing with stated that the serial number cannot be found in the system and it will require a bit of special work contacting a few departments to get it registered. He had me match the foot serial number with the box serial number and when I set it up and fire it up on Friday (I waited to talk to him before opening the box given the 5 month old issue) we will see if the serial number matches the foot and box and if it is the machine it is supposed to be. When I punched the serial number into the warranty search page it was not recognized as valid!
Has anybody experienced and/or heard of anything like this?
My intuition isn't giving me good feelings about this!

What color box was this in? Since this is a replacement machine, I'd guess that it is a refurb (which possibly was manufactured originally in 09/2010). Usually refurbs are assigned a new serial number; that could also happen if the logic board is replaced.
So, as long as you can register the new serial number and the warranty period shows correctly (probably ending 2/24 or 2/25, 2012), you should be fine. Apple does reserve the right to replace with refurbs per the warranty language.
So, open it, set it up, and check the serial number for registration. Did you tell the person you spoke with that this was an Applecare replacement machine?

Goods receipt MB01 with serial number problem

Dear MM Experts,
Iam a PM Consultant and this problem faced me while doing goods receipt from external maintenance order so i will appreciate any help regarding this issue,
In serial number profiles i did the stock check indicator to give an error message if there were incosistinces in stock data,
now this is the scenario:
after doing an external maintenance order and creating a PO with reference to the maintenance order PR, and also entering the specified serial number in the PO:
1) Goods Issuing: i used MB1B with movement type 541 and as the serial number already exist and not wrong so it didnt show any error messages and by checking the stock data in MMBE the material was in stock provided to vendor.
2) Goods Receipt: when using MB01 with movement type 101 and when entering the serial number of the material it gives an error message ALTHOUGH it is the same serial number issued and the same serial number in the PO
This is the error message :
Stock data of serial number G081 not suitable for movement
Message no. IO231
Diagnosis
The current stock information for the serial number G081 contradicts the stock information of the movement to be posted. The following stock information is valid for the document and the serial number: Batch Number Stock data Serial data C2
Only the first different field for the stock data/serial data is assigned. However, further data may also be inconsistent. To determine whether this is the case, you can start an analysis.
System Response
Two system responses are possible (set using Customizing): If the case of an error occurring, the assignment of the serial number to this posting procedure is not possible. In the case of a warning, you can, if necessary, transfer the notification.
Procedure
Assign a serial number which corresponds in your stock information to the stock data of the posting. You can display the serial numbers which can be used using Select serial numbers.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks in advance

Hello,
A possibility to fix serial number status is by running the report RISTEQ07 in SE38 transaction. Please run this report as mentioned in the SAP Note 316868 (point 2).
While running the report please consider following points:
The report does not set any locks on the records to be corrected, in other words, the report should only then be executed in the correction mode if the master records (within the client) are not being used in another (changing) access.
During the search for inconsistent serial numbers, the system assumes that the stock segment is correct and the existence indicator might be incorrect.
In the correction mode, the existence indicator is adjusted (depending on the existence of the stock segment).
The report provides a test option (LP_TEST); if this option is active, the system only checks whether inconsistencies exist. Corrections are only carried out if the test mode is deactivated. Option LP_EXTD for the enhanced check should remain deactivated for the first run. In particular, if no inconsistency is recognized, the run should be repeated with the activated option.
Another possibility is to create/post a physical inventory document for the affected material and serial number.
Determine which material serial number is really on stock (physically on stock). You can do this, by either analyzing the history of each Serial Number or by carrying out a physical inventory.
Before posting the Physical Inventory the stock validation of the serial number profile of the material has to be switched off in OIS2 transaction (if it is switched on).
When you do this, you will get a Pop-up, please read the long text and execute the report RISERNR9 which is mentioned there.
After executing this report the inventory can be posted. When this is done please switch stock validation on again and execute report RISERNR9 again.
Perform this inconsistency correction only when you are sure that no one else is working on the system otherwise it could lead to more inconsistencies while the stock validation is switched off. Check SAP Note 612132 for further details.
In another words, you have to:
Create a physical inventory in MI01 transaction;
Enter a counted quantity in MI04 transaction;
Define each serial number to each qty on stock.
I hope this information helps you.
Good luck,
Fábio Almeida

Subcontracting Process with Serial Number

We activated BADI for MRO Process. As per the sap help the MRO Process will support subcontract serialized and NON -Serialized rework parts.
The Process is fine with NON -Serialized works. But GR for the subcontract is getting error on using the same serial number .it is accepting if we assign different serial number. We want to assign the serial number to the subcontract purchase order item along with the material number and expect to be returned by the subcontractor with the same material and same serial number.
But we are getting the message like this Stock data of serial number 0988900 not suitable for movement. How to get rid of this error? 0988900 is the serial number assigned Original to the equipment.
Thanks

Serial Number Not Found

Hello all.
I've purchased a MacBook Pro Aluminium at Fry's Electornics Palo Alto, CA on June 2009. When I try to apply for a Snow Leopard Upgrade (up-to-date), my serial number is not recognized. What may be happening? Is it possible that I come across any problems if I need to use warranty?
Thanks in advance.
< Edited by Host >

Because I got first hand experience with registering not found serials. I called Apple and they had no record of me buying my book, so they registered the serial to my name and Apple account without any proof of purchase, on the phone and all.
Sure it would most likely be resolved if someone would have done this to his serial they found here, but it would be extra hassle.

Lightroom 3 asks for serial number launching in non-admin account

The following information was provided by Carey Burgess (Adobe Employee):
Does Lightroom 3 launch and work fine in an admin account, but when you launch the application in a standard (i.e. non-admin) account it asks for a serial number?
If so, then it is likely due to a file permissions issue either in the original (admin) account or with the standard account.
(Although you need administrator access to install Lightroom, and you do need proper access permissions to your photos, you should be able to run Lightroom without issue in a standard user account.)
Lightroom 3 stores registration data (the serial number) in a file called Lightroom 3.0 Registration, which is stored by default in one of these locations:
    * Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom
    * Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom
    * Windows 7/Vista: C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Lightroom
- Check for the registration file in the appropriate location for your system.
If the file does not exist in that location, then ensure you are logged in with the admin account (the one where Lightroom doesn't prompt for a serial number) and check the user-specific location instead:
    * Mac OS: /Users/YOUR USER NAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom
    * Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom
    * Windows 7/Vista: C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom
If the file exists in the user-specific location instead, then I would suggest that you ensure that you have quit Lightroom, and then move the registration file from the user location to the default system-wide location. Lightroom should now no longer prompt for serial number when you open it from a non-admin account.
If the registration file did (or now does) exist in the default system-wide location, but you are still being prompted to enter a serial number when opening Lightroom in a standard user account, then that account does not have sufficient access permission to the registration file.
To resolve this aspect, there are two possible solutions (the first being the recommended solution):
1. Change the access permissions on the Lightroom folder that contains the registration file to grant "Read" access for the standard user account. (You can do this for each account individually, or you can use a broader group like Everyone.)
For more information about changing permissions, see one of these articles:
    * Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308419#4
    * Windows Vista/Windows 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/What-are-permissions
    * Mac OS: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8342.html
2. Copy the registration file from the system-wide location to the user-specific location for the standard user account. (You would need to repeat this step for each standard user that needs access to Lightroom.)
Reply here if these steps do not resolve your issue, or if you have any questions.

Months ago, I had a routine clearout of old software boxes etc and chucked out my Lightroom 1.0 box. A couple of weeks ago I reinstalled Lion on my mac to find that I cannot register Lightroom. I have the 3.0 upgrade serial, the 2.0 upgrade serial, but the 1.0 was on the box..
I followed the instructions above to find the files in crashplan form before the fomat that hold the registration details. I have tried placing them in the location described, but it doesn't seem to work.
The serials (or something) are in the file, but given in the string that is difficult to decipher - and doesn't work in the registration screen, wrong size and a mix of letters and numbers rather than just numbers as my 3.0 serial is.
Any suggestions for what I could do? Could I send the strings in to Adobe to be deciphered? Perhaps move files around a bit more?
Thanks in advance,
Rog.

Can the Apple store verify my purchase and warranty by serial number

Can the Apple store verify my purchase and warranty period by serial number ??

Serial number from device could mean it's been sitting in the warehouse for a year before he purchased it can't it?
It could, but all authorized dealers are required to report the sale date and serial number to Apple. That's how Apple knows when a device was sold to set the warranty date; the warranty starts on the day the authorized dealer sells the device to the user, not when the dealer receives the device from Apple.
How would they know his serial number from his device without registering it because I know all the serial numbers show up on my devices but like I said how would the serial number prove that he didn't purchase the device 6 months - 1 year after it left the warehouse or place of purchase.
See my previous response.
Says on website Apple may require a proof of purchase and to keep your receipt.
They may, though usually they don't. But again, the user is not required to register the device with Apple to validate the warranty. In fact, in many countries it is illegal for any manufacturer to require registration before a warranty is honored. The proof of purchase is all that would ever be needed, and again if the device is take directly to Apple that's almost never required.
Regards.

Serial Number in Subcontracting Scenario: ECC 5.0

Hello Experts,
System Landscape: ECC 5.0
Company code=1000, Plant 1000
Company code=2000, Plant 2000
Sending material for rework (component and material is same)
At Plant 1000:
Scenario: Subcontracting of serialized material- A subcontracting purchase order is created from company code 1000 to the vendor (here the vendor is company code 2000). A material is sent to subcontractor which is having a serial number - Mvt. 541. Now it shows as stock at subcontractor.
When I try to receive the material through MIGO w.r.t po, I am getting the error Message no. IO231 - Stock data of serial number 090907-3 not suitable for movement.
At Plant 2000:
Here they want to receive the same material with the same serial number with movement type 501 in order to track the material. Now when I try to receive the material the system throws error: Message no. IO231 - Stock data of serial number 090907-3 not suitable for movement. The same material is already extended to the plant 2000.
Looking forward for your kind help.

Dear Suresh,
I am also facing the same problem. Have you found the solution for this

Item Manage by Serial Number

hello all,
related to my question Service Module, Can i use the Service Module?
what should i do if my item master data has an Onhand qty. and it is not manage by Serial Number, now i want to manage this item master data by Serial Number,but SBO Prompt me w/ the ff. message (You can modify the "Manage item by" setting only when the available quantiry is zero and there are no serial or batch numbers available).
please advice what is the best practice and workaround for this scenario
thanks ang best regards,
Fidel

Hi,
You can't change the item master data manage by batch to manage by serial no.
There are two solutions to solving it i.e.:
A. First solution
1. Good issue all the quantities of item manage by batch
2. Change to manage by serial number after item stock on hand is zero
if step A.2. is failed, use step B:
1. Create new item code manage by serial
2. Good issue all quantities of item manage by batch
3. set on hold for item manage by batch
