Assigning a bunch of order to a technician very quickly

Hello Experts,
We have 200-300 Orders generated for preventive maintenance every day in our plant.
So it makes the Supervisor's life really difficult to assign those Orders to the Technicians in the order header - user responsible field on by one.
We know there is a possibility of defaulting partner assignment to equipment master. However when we have multiple partners (technicians work in shift round the clock) assigned in the same equipment, system picks up the one whose name comes alphabetically 1st.
Is there a way to have the auto-assignment of orders to technicians based on the rotational shift basis???
Thanks in advance!!!

Create abap program for updating the person responsible in multiple orders and ask the supervisors to run by entering technician id. Choose the list of work orders in abap code or loaded in form input file.
Regards,
Tehsin

  • How to make default account assignment category in planned order?

    Scneario Description:
    1. Sales order for a configurable parent item is created in ERP & order BOM is changed & transferred to APO. In APO MRP run takes place for that parent item, which creates a planned order with account assignment category "M" (M:Individual Customer w/o KD-CO.
    2. Now based on the dependant requirement generated for parent item, MRP takes place for one of the child item in ERP & purchase requisition gets created for child item.
    Question:
    1. Can anybody help me how i can make default account assignment as "F" (F:Order) in the planned order of parent item?
    2. PR created for child item also has default account assignment category as "M". we wish to change that to "F".
    Thanks & best regards

    Hi V. Suresh,
    The account assignment category maintained in the requirement class for parent item is 'M'.
    No account assignment category maintained has been maintained in the requirement class Semi-finished component (this component is sent for subcontracting).
    The business process is as follows:
    1. Create Sales Order for Parent say ME_PARENT.
    2. Order BOM for ME_PARENT is created and subsequently cifed to APO.
    3. PP/DS heuristic is run for ME_PARENT.
    4. MRP for component ME_COMP is run in ERP.
    It can be seen that purchase requistion for ME_COMP has a/c assgn category as 'M'. It seems that the ME_COMP has inherited 'M' from ME_PARENT.
    We would like to have no a/c assgn category for ME_COMP.
    Any pointers?
    Regards,
    Sandeep

  • You cannot make an assignment to make-to-order stock - Message no. CO684

    Hi,
    During conversion of planned order to production order in variant configuration scenario I am getting following error message....
    You cannot make an assignment to make-to-order stock
    Message no. CO684
    Diagnosis
    The component cannot be allocated to an individual stock because make-to-order production and engineer-to-order production cannot be executed with this order.
    A possible cause is that you are trying to create an order with reference to a sales-order/project, where an account assignment to a sales order/project is not allowed in the settlement profile that is assigned to the chosen order type. This is inconsistent.
    System response
    The following responses are possible:
    Order processing is canceled.
    The system resets the special stock indicator back to the original value.
    Procedure
    Choose another order type.
    Any ideas or suggestions to correct this issue..

    Hi Pavan,
    This is one of the most common problem comes during MTO execution.And the real problem is massage no itself because you will get the same massage no. for many reason and that's it becomes more difficult to find out root cause.
    Check below threads and settings,
    - Order type for MTO is not maintain in Production scheduling Profile.Go OPKP or CORY and maintain Order type for MTO to it.

  • Message " You cannot make an assignment to make-to-order stock"

    Hi,
    i'm trying to create a production order for a specific material, but I get this error message:
    "The component cannot be allocated to an individual stock because make-to-order production and engineer-to-order production cannot be executed with this order.
    A possible cause is that you are trying to create an order with reference to a sales-order/project, where an account assignment to a sales order/project is not allowed in the settlement profile that is assigned to the chosen order type. This is inconsistant."
    I have checked the settlement profile and valid receivers: "G/L account" and "sales order" are set to 1 "Settlement Optional".
    Which can be the problem?
    Thanks in advance,
    Luis.

    Hi,
    in the allocation structure assigned in the settlement rule, is there an assignment for receiver category "SDI" (Sales Order Item) maintained? If not  thats the reason.

  • Return Order Changed/Re-assigned to Diff Sales Order

    Hi All SD gurus,
    I have a very weird case here and am wondering whether anyone can gives me some leads here.
    A return order ( customized ) was created with reference to a Sales Order. A subsequent return delivery and Post Goods Receipt was performed. Looking at the doc flow, let say Return Order <i>ABC</i> is attached to Sales Order 9-001. After awhile, upon rechecking, Return Order ABC was now assigned to another Sales Order 9-003 and Sales Order 9-001 is now assigned to a new Return Order <i>BCD</i>. Sales Order 9-001 also has subsequent Credit memo Request, Credit memo and Purchase Order.
    What could be the possibility of this happenning. I have checked on the change history for return order <i>ABC</i> but there's no indication of deletion or re-assignment. I am totally puzzled by this case. I have tried checking in OSS but seems like i can't find the relevant raised issue.
    This case is indeed very weird and my apology for posting it in the first place but I'm running out of ideas on how this can be happenning. Any leads will be very very much appreciated here.
    Warmest Regards and Thanks in advance,
    Edie O

  • How to assign version in sales order and transfer to PP module

    Hi all
    Users say that customer will require to produce/deliver old goods (we active revision level. The newest material version is D. But customer want version B). How to assign version in sales order and let PP user know the version customer want (MRP run and production order must use version B's BOM)?
    Regards,
    Rita

    Hi,
    i have a query if you have implimented ECM this will serve the purpose but it also depends on how good the planning is, in ur client site ( out of SAP ) where planner will plan according to the customer requirement as to which version to be kept active for a date range.The ECO analysts(functional) or consultants will make the ECO changes for those dates.
    In general for those type of customers (who needs old version) a different SO created under different document type which will create a production orders with specific order type depending on the assignment of requirement type and requirement class.
    those specific production ordertypes can be inturn assigned to either different plant where your old version BOM's will be active.
    You need to look into the custom settings in SAP to design the larchitecture to allign with other requirements.What i explained u is common methodology used.
    Hope this is clear..

  • About account assignment group in Sales Order.

    Hi gurus,
    I am working in SD for the first time and I am facing below problem
    1. Material code was created  with account assignment group (MVKE-KTGRM)  as blank (Sales Org 2 view)
    2. Later this material was entered in Sales Order.
    3. Subsequently Sales Order BOM and Production Order were made against this material.
    4. We maintained account assignment group in material master after creation of Sales order but account assignment group was not updated in Sales Order.
    5. Now the field is gray out or non-editable is there any way by which we can maintain account assignment group in the sales order.
    6. As the field is non editable we are unable to do Invoice by VF01.
    Is there any way by which we can maintain account assignment group in Sales Order??
    Edited by: Deepak Kulkarni on Mar 6, 2012 2:09 PM

    Hi
    As you have mentioned that you have maintained the acct assignment grp in the material master after the order was created, it will not appear in the sales order item already created and it will only reflect in new orders and changes to existing orders for that material.
    Proposed solution:
    If it is order related billing that you are doing, then goto VA02 and delete and re-enter the item with same material and qty.
    The account assignment group will appear.
    If the item is delivery related and if the delivery has already been created but PGi not done, then delete the delivery and then delete the item in the sales order and re-enter the item as told above. If PGI also done, then reverse the PGI, delete the delivery and re-enter as suggestd in above scenarios.
    The account assignment group will appear in the billing document document tab in item level.

  • Purchase order creation - Account assignment group C (Sales Order)

    Hello Gurus
      During the purchase order creation in Me21N, account assignment category C (sales order) is available. In which scenario we will use it. When I assign C system is asking for a GL account. Why system needs a GL account, and how the posting will be at the time of goods receipt. Thanks for your help in advance.

    Hi,
    Creation of Purchase Order with t.code: ME21N  with account assignment category C (sales order) is used for Time and Material Expenses with third party scenario and you need to enter sales order number and respective G/L account . In this scenario 1st a  sales order is created with a material( material created DIEN material type) & then purchase order created with respect to sales order.
    Here you provide service to your customer and this service you procure from your vendor, you just play middle role  for providing and getting service.Standard DIEN material type designed for Sales usage only, so you create sales order  for service material.Service master is used to get service from vendor with item category D with proper account assignment category as C
    Example:
    Material type DIEN is used for when you offer "SERVICE" to your customer.( The steps are (VA01,VF01,VF04,F-28), If u used HR module( you can used with sales order with t.codes are: CAT2,CATS_APPR_LITE,CAT7,PR05,PRRW,PRFI)
    Service Master records(AC01)ESM is used when you procure "SERVICE" from your vendor.( Steps are: ME21N with Item Cat. "D" with Acc. ***. Cat. "C", ML81N,MIRO & F-53).

  • Assigning more than 1000 orders in one WBS

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement of assigning more than 1000 Orders to one WBS element. As per SAP note, a maximum of 1000 Orders can be asssigned to one WBS otherwise system performance may get affected. But as per the client requirement, either I should allow more than 1000 Orders or System should give an error message when the assignment crosses this limit... I checked for User exits (for Orders) and could not find any for this... any experience / suggestions ?
    Thanks
    Bala

    Hi,
    If more than 1000 orders has been assigned under one WBS then the system performance will get slow.Whenever you are retriving some data or reports for that WBS the system response will be slow.
    If the client requirement is like that then you can create more than 1000 orders,
    orelse you can break the WBS in SUb WBS & create many orders under different head.
    You can cretae more than 1000 orders under one WBS.The system wont give any error message.

  • Adding Assignment Block to Sales Order Screen

    Hi
    We enhanced the SAP GUI CRMD_ORDER screen to have a new tab and added custom fields to it. This was done using easy enhancement workbench.
    Now we want to do the same thing to the Sales Order Screen in Webclient UI.
    I have  seen a lot of discussions in the forums, but for a beginner like me it is confusing.
    Can someone please guide me on how to do it?
    I have set up webclient UI and everything is working fine but I am not aware on how to create new assignment blockand add fields to it since the building block does not have it listed.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards
    Jimmy

    Hi Stephen
    What we did in EEWB was we created a new tab on Sales Order Item Details called 'Customer Fields' and added some new custom fields there.
    We want to change our Webclient UI Sales Order Item Details screen (BT131I_SLS) to add a new assignment block (Customer Fields) and insert the custom fields in it.
    I am trying to figure out how to do it. I saw the link to the blog that you had sent but before I can add new fields I have to figure out how to add a new assignment block on Sales Order Item details.
    Like when we click on item on sales order screen we get assignment blocks shipping,shipping transactions,Billing.......I want to create a new one called 'Customer Fields' and some custom fields there.
    Your help is appreciated.

  • Re: assign profit center to order type

    hi gurus,
    good morning to everybody,
    i have a question i have 1000 materials in my organization using by 5 company codes in that few material i need to assign profit center so i went to mm change and assigned the profit center for sales:general/plant and plant data/stor.2, if i want to assign profit center to order type how can i assign, if i cannot assign in order type i need to assign profit center in mm change for 500 materials, so if i change manually in mm change for 500 materials is it going to effect for the other company code when they post the transactions please give me your opinions.
    thanks in advance and points will be assign for useful answers.
    kumar.

    Dear Kumar
    Go to VA02, input the sale order reference and execute.  There double click on the line item and select the tab "Account Assignment".   There you can see the field "Profit Center". 
    As I said in your other thread, if you have generated subsequent documents like delivery or billing, you cannot change this for that line item.  You have to close this line item by assigning "Reason for Rejection",  and create a new line item but then, b4 doing this, you should have changed the profit center in material master.
    Alternatively, if you want to update in bulk, go to T.Code MASS, input "BUS2032"  in Object Type and execute.  There select "Sales Order Item Data" and click on "Fields". 
    Select the field name "MASSVBAP-PRCTR" and execute.  Either you can input the sale order references for which you would like to change or just execute.
    Now you will have a screen "New Values" on top and below the existing sale orders listed.  Give the new profit center against the field "New Values" and execute.
    thanks

  • Assign equipment to work order operations

    What configuration is needed to be able to assign a equipment to work order operation ?
    I already have few equipments assigned to a work order (displayed on the objects tab) but I need to assign some equipments to certain operations.

    Sveinn,
      You would need to be in ECC6.0 to be able to do this. This should be available through SPRO under PM> Maintenace and service processing > Functions and setting for order types > Define notification and order integration.Within this you would need to enable the assignment of operations to object list for specific order types.
    Hope it helps.

  • Account assignment category in production order

    Hi all,
    When I create a production order, the account assignment category coming is OIT - Order Item where as it should be MAT because in order type dependent parameters - distribution rule - Production Mat.Full settlement, is maintained.  Is there any setting missing from production side if any?
    Regards,
    Yogesh

    Hi,
    If you are using a nonvaluated sales order stock, you can only use full settlement for the manufacturing orders assigned to a sales order item. At the end of the period, the costs are settled from the manufacturing orders assigned to the sales document item.The inventory values are calculated on the sales document item when you perform results analysis. You then settle the inventory values calculated in results analysis to Financial Accounting and Profit Center Accounting.
    Please check strategy group of the material and settlement profile.

  • FM/BAPI to update requirements assignment on a PM order

    Hello,
    I am working on a project which involves building interfaces between a client's SAP ECC system and a third party scheduling system. The orders are created in SAP, interfaced to the third party, where they assign resources and schedule appointments. Hence we need to build is inbound to SAP, to update the "requirements assignment" tab of PM order operations - transaction IW32.
    I have looked at BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN, but this doesn't provide this specific functionality.
    Does anyone know if there is any other type of function module which enables this to be created/updated?
    The data appears to be stored in table KBED - capacity requirements.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Peter

    Hi Balaji,
    After lots of search and trials, I have gave up on the function group CY_BT*.
    I eventually used direct update on the database tables of the Requirements Assignment.
    Using SQL Trace and Runtime Analysis of the transaction IW31/32, I have been able to imitate the standard SAP process for creation, update and deletion and the effect of every scenario on the database tables:
    KBED     Capacity Requirements Records
    KBEZ      Add. data for table KBED (for indiv. capacities/splits)
    KBKO     Header Record for Capacity Requirements
    Combine that with locking mechanism, you will get your results.
    Just build a Z-'BAPI'. The best cost-benefit balance, as far as I am concerned.
    Good luck,
    Kamal.
