Automatic removal of articles from listing

Hello,
We have SAP Retail implemented since 2011.
Due to the Company's growth strategy we are enhancing and improving the use of Retail functionalities.
What was customized in a very simple way needs now to be adjusted to support a larger operation.
Currently there is one General assortment where all materials and sites are assigned to. The listing is created and materials connected to a module are linked to the assortment.
Some questions regarding implementation and system functionality arised with the need to review customizing and current implementation scenario:
1 - According to documentation it is possible to have automatic listing procedures. Would it be possible to unlist one material for a specific purpose? For example, if the material is not procured or sold in the past 3 months, we would like it to be automatically removed from the assortment.
2 - How to prevent CD from 'any' external procurement for a material or a group of materials?
In this case there still may be the scenario where stores have to return improper goods to CD. Stores are considered as Vendors in this case, so is our CD. I need to be able to differentiate the CD trying to procure externally from stores returning improper goods to the CD.
3 - Where can I find documentation about the tables flows and relationships during the listing , articles deactivation, assortment changes, articles removed from assortments...and so on. I would like to have the big picture about Retail tables during major materials changes.
4 - Is there a Best Practice document for using SAP Retail apart from SAP Help?
I appreciate your attention and any assistance you can provide.
Best Regards,
Claudia

Hi Uma,
I don't think there is any such program available in SAP as if user is expired then anyway system will not allow him to login and if user is valid then there is no need of performing this action separately as by logic it is same as role removal and should be handled as per standard logic.
Hope this helps.

  • Remove the article from assortment in SAP IS-Retail

    Hi,
    i want to remove the articles from the assortment. not from the system. so kindly provide the guidance regarding that issue.
    thanks in advance

    Hi Sune
    The thread you are refering to is quite old, there is a solution available now for doing retail master data governance on SAP MDG. This is offered as a consulting solution now.
    The data model itself is modelled after the IS Retail data model for Article master and would leverage on the data governance capabilites offered by the MDG framework.
    It is not exactly a supplier portal for data exchange but there have been architecture discussions on using a 'lean' version of the data model as a vendor facing portal and seperating this from internal facing MDG for enriching the ERP specific parts of the article master data , before governing and commiting to the ERP system.
    If you are interested in talking more about it would be happy to do so.
    Regards

  • Removing a Choose From List

    Hi
    I have a matrix containing numerous columns, one of which is a combo type column and one which is an edit box column containing a choose from list linking to the Item Master.
    What I need to happen is if the user selects a particular option from the combo column then the edit box column cell associated with that row will no longer allow the user to use the choosefromlist function and will not validate the value entered with an item. So basically I need to temporarily remove the choosefromlist functionality from this particular cell.
    The way I though of doing this was simply using a SAPbouiCOM.EditBox in order to select the particular cell and then try to set the .ChooseFromListUID property to "", however this does not work.
    Is there any way that this can be done?
    Thanks a lot
    Steve
    Edited by: Steven Tryner on Jun 9, 2009 4:41 PM

    Yeah I tried implementing this method into my code however the problem I had was stopping the cell from being automatically being validated against an Item, as it does with a choosefromlist. So if the text entered into the cell is not an Item the user can't navigate to any other cell until a valid itemcode is entered.
    Is there any way around this?
    Thanks

  • DVR Upgrade; Remove Old DVRs from List on Web and Mobile User Interfaces

    I have upgraded two HD DVRs to the hardware with more storage space.  The new DVRs appear on the list of available DVRs on both the web and mobile applications for DVR management.  The old, uninstalled DVRs also continue to appear.   How can I remove the old DVRs from these lists?

    Provided you returned the old DVR's using the materials and instructions that should have been provided when you received your new units, the old DVR's should disappear from your account in a week or two after they've been received and processed by Verizon.   I just renamed mine to "Returned" or something like that so that I would know to ignore them until they went away.
    If it takes more than one full billing cycle and they still haven't disappeared, then I'd call to find out why they are still in your account (i.e. have your tracking information ready because it sounds like they may have gotten lost along the way).

  • Remove old device from list in iCloud settings

    I purchased a new Iphone 6 and turned in my old phone.  I did as I was told and turned off find my phone and erased all content.
    When I log into iCloud.com and go to settings, my old phone is still listed there, but it is not listed on Find my Phone.
    I did the same exact process on my wife's new phone and it did not have this problem.
    How do I remove my old phone from my icloud settings?

    Erasing all content and settings should have removed it, but seems not to.  If you still had the old phone, setting it up as a new phone, then signing in and back out of your iCloud account would remove it.  Since you don't have the phone anymore, you'll have to get assistance from Apple support to remove it.  Your new phone still qualifies for fee phone support: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

  • How to remove null values from list?

    I had created a list in forms 6i and I am getting list values at run time using add_list_item function. The problem is I am getting null value at end of the list. In the property pallet I kept required yes and set the initial value but it is not removing null value. Can any one help me. Thank you.......

    Hello
    Sorry mis-read question on first reply.
    1. Have you set a default value?
    2. Is this default value still in your list?
    3. What happens if you default the list's value to a value you know exists after you have populated it?
    Cheers

  • Automatically create security groups from list of OU's

    Here I'm looking to create security groups automatically form the list of OU's available in active directory and add OU users to receptive groups.
    Help me to do this in power shell. THanks in advance.

    Hi,
    You can use Get-ADOrganizationalUnit to get a list of OUs in AD and then use New-ADGroup to create groups. You can then use Get-ADUser with the -SearchBase parameter to find your list of users who exist in the particular OUs. Finally, you can use Add-ADGroupMember
    to add these users to the groups.

  • How do I automatically remove 'true' duplicates from my 160gb ituneslibrary

    I have moved my 160 gb library between external hard drives (all my cd.s) but now see two copies of each song. I cannot possibly manually remove all the duplicates.  Since I also have more tahn one version of several pieces of music these are seen as duplicates but may be by different artists thes i would not want to remove.  Plus there are some files that I seem to have lost - but which I still have on my ipod and which I would not want to lose if I did an automatic synch since I could not get them back (the cd's are in the UK or Portugal or have been given away and were all legitimate!!)
    can anyone help?
    Many thanks if you do.

    Look into this US$15 utility.  I think it will do what you want.  http://dougscripts.com/apps/dupinapp.php

  • Mail automatically removes old messages from IMAP

    We are using one IMAP account (not iCloud or Gmail) for business mails.
    While the Microsoft office at the office (necessary as several essential programs are only available for Windows) displays all messages, older mails will no longer be displayed in mail on the Apple IMAC. This is valid for both my iMac and my Macbook air (Mail 7.3 but true for older versions as well).
    This is very annoying, as we sometimes need data from these messages and are unable to obtain those data without driving to the office.
    Are there any hidden tools to display all mails.
    In addition the search function often does not find mails, although they are there when you look for them manually (i.e. by scanning through all the mails). This feature of mail convinced my wife to stay with windows whenever possible.
    Thanks in advance for your help

    I see similar results if I go anywhere near the 'Get Mail' button - I may receive hundreds of old, read, and/or deleted emails. I've learned to never use 'Get Mail'= - if I don't use that, all seems to be relatively well.

  • Automate renaming of files from lists

  • Automatically removed from group conversation for being idle?

    Where I work, we have a group/team conversation for people to ask questions, make comments, share information, etc.
    In the past few weeks I have noticed that I have been being removed from this group conversation.  Find the message "You have been removed from this conversation."
    I usually start this conversation but leave permission open for everyone so anyone can add people as they come in for later shifts.  I know it's possible to right click on a person's name and remove them from the conversion.
    When this started happening, I researched how to stop it from happening and found that if I changed the permissions to me alone, I am not removed from the conversation.
    My questions are: does Lync automatically remove a person from a conversation if they are idle for a certain amount of time?  If so, what is the time frame?  Does just that person have to be idle or the entire conversation?
    Essentially, I'm trying to find out if some person is actively removing me or if it's some automatic setting within Lync.

    Yes there is a timeout, it's per person but mostly the entire conversation though due to "sending or receiving and instant message.  You can't easily turn it off, but you can change the value a bit.   See set-csclientpolicy setting
    ConferenceIMIdleTimeout.

  • How to remove html tags from a column

    Hi
    Problem is this: I get a column with a comma separated list of id's and I can successfully parse these id's and use them elsewhere. BUT, occasionally there are html tags within that id list like this:
    1082471,1237423<br xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" />
    Is there a way to just automatically remove all tags from a column? Could do this with regex, but since there is no support, I don't know what to do.

    Hi,
    If the HTML can be detected by a starting symbol like „<“, then you could use the following:
    Unfortuntely the operation “ReplaceRange” is only available on a Text-level, so you have to invoke a function (at least to my knowledge). You also need an Index-column in your table, so if you don’t have it, you need to create one as well.
    This is your function:
    let
       fnRemoveHTML = (Value, Index) =>
    let
       Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Tabelle1"]}[Content],
       IndeNo = Index,
       Value_ = Source{IndeNo-1}[Value],
       length = Text.Length(Text.From(Value_)),
       position = Text.PositionOf(Text.From(Value_), "<"),
       range = length-position,
       new= if Value_ is number then Value_ else Text.ReplaceRange(Value_, position, range, "")
    in
        new
    in
      fnRemoveHTML
    And this is how you invoke it:
    let
        Quelle = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Tabelle1"]}[Content],
        Last = Table.AddColumn(Quelle, "Custom", each fn_RemoveHTML([Value], [Index])),
        ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Last,{{"Custom", type number}})
    in
        ChangedType
    Provided your table is called “Tabelle1” & the column with your values to be replaced “Value” & your index-col “Index”

  • Can SeeBurger BIC Mapping tool automatically remove Delimiters?

    Hi all,
    When we map IDOC's to EDI X12 messages using the SeeBurger BIC Mapping tool, we sometimes have delimiters occur in fields such as name or address. We are using the setDestinationDelimiter and have changed our delimiters so this occurance is rare. However the problem may still occur. This causes an invalid message to be passed to our partner.
    One option is to use XI mapping and the replace function on each field however this is cumbersome and not the ideal solution.
    Is there a way to automatically remove Delimiter characters from fields as part of the BIC Mapping.
    Cheers,
    John

    Hi Satish,
    Thanks for re-iterating the problem. You are absolutely right that this does cause an invalid message.
    Also thanks for your suggestion regarding asking business not to enter the data, this has been done and as stated the occurences of these delimiters in the fields will be low, usually due to user error.
    We still however want to cater for these occurrences and prevent an invalid message being sent to the partner.
    I'm not sure if you've ever used the BIC Mapping tool and what I'm really looking for is someone with experience in this area to give a solution that works. Anyone out there who can help?
    Cheers,
    John
