Autocreate item number within a number range

A newbie question:
Can SBO auto generate an item number when the user adds a new item via the Item Master Data screen? Is it possible to define this number within a number range?

As Harold says, with formatted search you can do many nice things...
Also take a look at the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/tsqlref/ts_aa-az_3ied.asp">Trans-SQL reference</a> (if you are using SQL server as a database server), here you can find loads of information about the Trans-SQL language of SQL server...

External number range for service items?

I want to create Purchase order with services using BAPI. Is it possible to set external number range for the extrow / introw, so that if I need to change a service line item, I will be able to find out which service item needs to be changed.

It depends on whether you have a service master or not.
1. If you have service master, then there will be a service number (just like a material number). You can use that identify which one has to be deleted.
2. If NOT, then they would still send the text for the Service lines (I guess this will be unique for each line item). So, you will have to identify the line to be deleted by that.
Makes sense?
A question - You are saying you will get information to update the PO, but how does the system know which PO to be updated, how are you going to identify which PO needs to be changed?

Ravi

Documents manually posted within dep.doc.number range

Hi All,
I am running the AFAB and this error message is displayed.
"Documents manually posted within dep.doc.number range"
I am using the document type AF with the external number range
AF 2008 1120000000 1129999999
Do you have any idea what is happening?
Thanks in advance,
Miguel.

Hi,
I experience the same thing and I'm using ver 4.6C. I've tried to insert the additional number range in FBN1 but I have to remove the extenal number indicator first before I can enter the number.
But when I want to run the depreciation, I've got another error i.e. please create number range as external number. So i believe there is no effect.
When I check in TABA, the number range still maintain the same.
Please help coz my user need to view their asset balance urgently.

Extend number range on Material BOM item

Hi,
When displaying a material BOM via CS03 and looking at material tab. Each item is incremented by 10. We are currently nearing the end of this number range, ie we have a BOM which has a recipe with item number 9850. We have tested and determined that when we get to item number 9999 the next item reverts back to 0010, 0020 etc. This causes us great problems.
Is there a way to entend the number range past 9999, ie can we go from 9999 to 10000?
Thanks, Sinéad

Please see the object below and change according that
STUE       Number range BOMs
STUEC      Number ranges for class BOM
STUED      Number ranges for documents BOMs
STUEE      Number ranges for equipment BOMs
STUEK      Number ranges for sales order BOMs
STUEM      Number ranges for material bills of material
STUEP      Number ranges for WBS BOMs

Tolerance limits & Number ranges

1. What is tolerance limits ? Why we need to use it ? What are the steps to configure tolerance limits ?
2. What is number ranges ? How to create number ranges ?

Hi,
IN PO tollerence limit:
When processing a purchase order, the system checks whether the effective price of a PO item shows variances compared with the valuation price stored in the material master record. In addition, it checks whether the specified cash discount value is admissible.
Variances are allowed within the framework of tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, the system issues a warning or error message.
PE Price variance, Purchasing :
Tolerance limit for system message no. 207. This message appears if the specified effective price exceeds the predefined tolerances when compared with the material price.
SE Maximum cash discount deduction, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 231. This is a warning message, which appears when the specified cash discount percentage exceeds the predefined tolerances.
MIRO Tolerence limit: OMR6
When processing an invoice, the R/3 System checks each item for variances between the invoice and the purchase order or goods receipt. The different types of variances are defined in tolerance keys.
Variances are allowed within predefined tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, however, the system issues a message informing the user. If an upper limit (except with BD and VP) is exceeded, the invoice is blocked for payment when you post it. You must then release the invoice in a separate step. If the tolerance limit for BD is breached, the system cannot post the invoice.
Note that if you set all limits for a tolerance key to Do not check, the system does not check that tolerance limit. Therefore any variance would be accepted. This does not make sense particularly in the case of the tolerance key Form small differences automatically.

Overlapping Number Ranges for GL Accounts - does this allow duplicates?

Hi there,.
I am just-trying to understand GL numbering ranges.
If I create two GL account groups with overlapping number ranges, what (if anything), is stopping me from creating two GL accounts with identical numbers.
When l try to do this in fs00 I get a message telling me that the account already exists in the company code. Surely having the concept of an account group with overlapping number ranges implies that the account group forms part of the GL account's unique key and therefore allows duplicate GL account numbers.
Or does overlapping mean the ranges ovelap but the GL account numbers have to be unique?
Confused
Gerald.
Edited by: Gerald Dunn on Apr 26, 2011 6:57 PM

Hi,
Since a chart of accounts contains many different types of accounts, they can
be grouped into different account groups. Usually, one account group groups
accounts with the same tasks within the general ledger, for example, cash accounts,
material accounts, asset accounts, profit and loss statement accounts, and so on.
By assigning a number range to an account group, you can ensure that accounts
of the same type are within the same number range. Number intervals for G/L
account master records can overlap.
You must enter the account group in the chart of accounts segment; it controls the
appearance of the company code segment of a G/L account. For example, for all
of your cash accounts, you want to be able to display all of the line items. In
Customizing, you therefore alter the field status for your Cash Accounts account
group to make line item display a required entry field.
Thanks

Every Shipping point has corresponding number range for the HU box number?

Hi,
Every Shipping point has corresponding number range for the HU box number assignment?
For example, we are doing packing, then a Handling Unit number has been generated. So where to define this number range of the HU number??
Is it from the SPRO or controled by programs.
Thanks.

Hi,

A handling unit is a physical unit that consists of the packaging materials (load carrier / packaging material) and the goods contained therein. A handling unit is always a combination of materials and packaging materials. All the information contained in the material items, such as batches and serial numbers, is always available by way of the handling units.
Handling units can be nested, meaning that you can also create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like.
Handling units have unique, scannable identification numbers that can be formed according to standards such as EAN 128 or SSCC.
Figure 1: Handling unit example
Structure
The handling unit object contains the following attributes:
     Identification number
     Dimensions
     Weight
     Volume
     Status
     Materials and quantities
     Packaging materials
     Packing instructions
A handling unit consists of a handling unit header and handling unit items. For identification purposes, it is given a unique number.
Handling unit header
The header data of a handling unit is divided in the following way:
     Weight/Volume/Dimensions
     General data
     Means-of-transport data
     Additional data
     Output determination procedure
For more information about each of these detailed points, see Editing detailed data for handling units.
Status
The handling unit is linked to general status management. In this way, the various physical states (planned or implemented) and other attributes (weighed, loaded, blocked or posted goods issue) of handling units can be documented.
You can use the HU_ST_INIT user parameter when you create handling units without object reference to set which initial status the handling unit is to have when it is created.
If you want to implement a status of your own, you can define a user-specific procedure for the packaging material type (see also Define Packaging Material Types).
Handling unit item
The items of a handling unit can consist of material items, packaging materials or other handling units that appear in an overview. For more information about this overview, see the Contents section of Editing detailed data for handling units.
To access the item data of an individual handling unit, select the handling unit concerned and choose Goto  Detailed HU data  Contents.
Integration
Handling units can be used in all processes within the supply chain.

Excise invoice number range - for selling to SEZ

Dear All,
While creating excise invoice for selling in SEZ unit, Excise invoice type is taking Deemed instead of LOU. Because of this system is asking to allocate number range using J_1IEXLOC number object. Series group is 12 for EXPORT. As selling to SEZ is export under LoUwe would like to use number range in combination series group 12 and number object J_1IEXCEXP which is already maintained for export under LoU.
Please give solution as soon as possible.
Regards,
Sagar

Dear Sagar,
Because in case of SEZ, they get a special status by the Tax authorities in which various Tax scenarios doesn't come into picture, they can be a export oriented org and so get exempted from duties like Excise etc in normal scenarios but the SAP system picks the number range object J_1IEXLOC or J_1IEXCEXP based on your ship to party..and some other factors...so obviously in deemed export your ship to party will be within India, check with your ABAPer...that is why in case of deemed export J_1IEXLOC is getting picked by the system.
In case you want to change..you need to write a exit..say for these kind of customers..maintain a seperate customer group..and from that system should check which number range object should be picked.
Thanks,

How to have a custom Item Number in Sales Order Items

Hello Experts,
We are creating a sales order using IDoc, sales order gets created but, its not taking value what we are populating in Item Number field for Item. Defualtly its filling 10,20 and so on...
Is there any thing that I need to maintain, so that SAP accepts the custom number for Item number.
Please help,
Thanks,
Suma

Hi Suma,
In VOV8, you can see the fields Number system..here u can see sub item increment u can enter 12 here then the next item number will be 500012, 500024 and so on. But if u want to maintain external number range then follow this steps.
Determine which external number ranges are provided for the relevant
document type. Choose the function "Maintain number range" of the
document type (for example: Purchase order -> Maintain number range)
for this purpose.
Choose a number range and note its number.
Enter the number of the desired number range.
Thanks,
Raja

Creation of HU in auto mode with external number range

Dear Experts,
         I'm stucking in a scenario related to HUM
There are two handling units -
1. Bag
2. Pallet
through T code HU02 , it's possible to create an HU and assign it internal generated number.
But as per our requirement , we want to assign the external number to the HU (which is barcode number of bag or pallet)
Can you pls let me know the process of assigning External number range to HU.
Also we want to create the HU automatically after GR in production (MIGO,101) , instead of manually via HU02.
Pls explin the process of creation of HU automatically also...
Thanks in advance..

Check with FM BAPI_HU_PACK.For packing an item into HU.
For external number range you need configure external number range
SPRO>Logistics - General>Handling Unit Management>Basics>Technical Basics-->Define Number Ranges for Handling Units.
After GR for production you need to confighre internal number range for perticular packing material type then system will automatically pack and place in HU location.

Is it possible to fill item number on a PO autocreated from PR?

Hi,
I have created a non-catalog PR (i.e. without item number) and then autocreated to PO.
On the PO, the item number field is protected. Is it possible for me to fill the item number? Thanks.
Regards
Leo

Hi Leo,
yes,I think you can modify the requisition lines during "autocreate" process to PO.
Make sure the profile "PO: Restrict Requisition line modify to quantity split" to NO.
pls see the note below:-
Use the Modify Lines window to split an existing requisition line into multiple requisition lines that represent the same or different items. For example, if the requisition line quantity is so large that a single supplier cannot fill the entire order by the need-by date, then you need to fill this order from more than one supplier. On the other hand, if you have a requisition line item that contains parts that you want to order as unique items, you can explode the requisition line into several lines. After you modify a requisition line, you cannot modify the new requisition line(s) again.
Note: You cannot modify requisition lines for outside processing items and when you are using encumbrance accounting or budgetary control.
Thanks

Create vendor in ERP R/3 with internal number range

HI,
When I create a new vendor from MDM in R/3 with internal number range ADRMAS is processed OK but CREMDM is in status 51 because of missing address data.
According to sap note 1052964 (se below) ADRMAS must be the first IDOC and it should contain the vendor number, but this is not possible with internal number range. How do you overcome this problem and how do I get the vendor number back to MDM?
ALE inbound needs the customer / vendor account number within the ADRMAS IDoc to link the ADRMAS IDoc to the follwing DEBMAS / CREMAS IDoc correctly. Therefore field <OBJ_ID> in ADRMAS segment <E1ADRMAS> must contain exactly the same value as fields <KUNNR> / <LIFNR> in the corresponding DEBMAS / CREMAS IDoc. If this value is not provided, the Business Address Service stores the address but is unable to link the address later on to the corresponding Customer / Vendor.
Kind regards
Jonna

We have worked around these problems in the past. These are the steps we took:
1. We created a custom program to process a CREMDM IDOC. This custom program was pretty simple. It called the function module to process a CREMAS IDOC (IDOC_INPUT_CREDITOR) then did a committ. The program captured the vendor number and then called the function module (IDOC_INPUT_ADRMAS) that processes an ADRMAS IDOC (It plugged in the previously captured Vendor number in the ADRMAS).
2. Using this custom program, it is not necessary in PI to split the CREMDM into a CREMAS and an ADRMAS.
3. The last step in the custom program kicked off transaction MDMV to trigger an outbound CREMDM IDOC back to MDM. This was necessary to update the vendor number in MDM.

Anybody ever created multple PO doc type/number ranges in extended classic?

I have searched this forum, and found plenty of useful threads which would help me determine different document types/number ranges for back-end purchase orders in a classic scenario. (And I have done something similar many years ago on a classic EBP 3.0 implementation)
However, I have a customer who has an SRM 5 extended classic implementation, and who (Based on certain simple criteria) requires a different PO number range to identify certain types of indirect orders. (They also have direct materials procured using doc type ECDP, but that's not relevant to this requirement)
This would obviously have to apply to the local PO in SRM, as well as the backend ECC PO.
It would also need to be derived for orders created automatically via approved shopping carts, as well as those orders that are created via sourcing.
I've copied ECPO via define transaction types IMG step, as well as assigned a new number range.
Just to test, I've also added the second doc type in the BSA attribute for a particular test user - just initially see if it was possible to manually choose when creating a PO in sourcing. However, I could only get ECDP and ECPO.
I have looked at various BADIs to see if I can determine doc type or number range somewhere in the PO creation, but as far as I can see, they either:
- Seem to apply only to the object type (PO, requisition, reservation etc) rather than the transaction type within that object.
- Or look like they are too late in the process to influence the doc type and number range (BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI?) ... which doesn't seem to have those doc type or PO number fields available anyway
- Or I doesn't seem to be trigerred at all when turning requirement into Po and ordering via sourcing. (tried break-point & endless loop in implemnetation of BBP_CREATE_BE_PO_NEW, but nothing happened. In any case the PO number was alreadya ssigned)
If anybody has ever managed this before, or can tell me that I am definitely barking up the wrong tree, it would be gratefully appreciated. The document type is actually lesss important than the different number range... and was really just an attempt to trigger a different number. I'm starting to think that this sort of thing may only be possible in a classic implemntation.
What I need ideally, would have been some kind of 'local PO' equivelent of the BADI that enables you to determine transaction type for a bid.
Regards,
Vince
Edited by: Vincent White on Dec 6, 2010 5:13 PM

Hi. Not sure on this, but I can tell you that with extended classic it is BADI BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI that is called for the backend PO instead of the CREATEPO_BACK BADI.
You can have a look in BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI and see if that helps?
Don't think it will influence the PO in SRM at all though.
Have you tried the number range / grouping BADIs? They definitly work for changing the number range for classic POs.
Regards,
Dave.
