Backflush creating Physical Inventory records

Hi,
On confirming a production order, backflush errors are getting created and that's understandable due to various issues. But few of the backflush is creating physical inventory docs. I'm not aware of any setting that's triggering off this. Any settings in OPK4? Partial or final confirmation - can any one explain that?
Help highly appreciated with points.

Hi Siva,
Could you clear scenario of what type of docuements created..is it material docuements or accounting documents?
Whether this comes components parts which has backflush problems or for the header part?
Please let us know so that we can give you exact solution.
Regards

  • Error in creating physical inventory creation

    Hi
    One of my customer is getting an error as " given batch is not accepting
    physical inventory 701 " . The batch is a existing and the problem is this works for most of the batches and only for some are not working. Pls note they are using mi01 , mi04 , mi07 to create physical inventory .
    Pls guide me to find the reason for having this error .
    Thanks & Regards
    Iresha

    Yes you found the reason. If there is no record in MCHB, then this batch has never been in that storage location, hence the batch record does not have a storage location segment.
    The physical inventory difference posting cannot create such segments. thats why you get this error.
    You have to create this segment manually in MSC1N or by moving this batch with 311 movement from the other storage location to this storage location (and back, to not mess up your current book inventory)
    After the segment is created, you can post the difference

  • Error when creating WM inventory record

    Hi All,
    When I try to create an inventory record using Txn LX15 and batch input session I get the following error in the error log in the batch input session
    "Number of allowed bins exceeded after storage bin P1-06A"
    This error is for transaction LI01N as per the error log.
    Has someone come across such an error? Is it related to number of stoarge bins allowed per inventory document?

  • Error while creating physical inventory document with zero count

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a physical inventory document for a material that has zero stock and that is not batch managed but I am geting an error as below.
    "Item 001: No batches that can be included in phys. inv. exist.(Message no. M7701)"
    This error occurs only for one or two materials.
    I am able to create the physical inventory document for other materials which is also zero stock and there is no batch managed for the same.
    Can anyone pls advice.
    Regards,
    Ramya

    hi
    if your material is split valuated, but not batch managed, then the split valuation type is shown in field batch number. And...it is a batch then.
    To be able to do a zero count you have to have a batch record whose batch number is the valuation type.
    If you never had stock in the storage location you want count, then you have to
    1. extend the material to this storage location with MMSC
    2. create the batch record with MSC1N for this storage location.

  • Creating Physical Inventory Documents using batch job in WM

    We use transaction LX26 to create the physical inventory documents for the storage bins and the materials therein. and the new PI dates are proposed based on the cycle count indicators configured.
    We want to automate the creation of physical inventory documents using a batch job. How can we achieve this?
    I understand that the program RM07ICN1 generates PI documents only when materials are managed at IM levels and this does not work for WM. Is there any other standard program which can be set up in batch to create the PI documents for the materials at WM level? If there is something then please let me know details....
    Thanks,

    I entered following details,
    WH no.
    Storage Type
    Inventory in Period (One year date range)
    Inventory Count date (Today's date)
    The output in spool shows me the following,
    No of Records Passed ;Quant Information; InventoryProposal; Later / block; Bin Information; Empty bins; Inventory active
    The list of storage bin, material, description & inventory date is also displayed.
    Description has Scheudled and Overdue and the inventory date is some dates in next months.
    It doesnt show anywhere that inventory document is generated.Please note that I had not selected the Activate Inventory List check box because I just want the system to auto create the inventory documents based on the logic of cycle count indicators.

  • MI31: Cannot Create Physical Inventory Document for a Certain Material

    Dear SAP MM Friends,
    Greetings! I am a budding MM functional analyst in our company. I received a call earlier regarding with transaction code MI31 (Selected Data for Physical Inventory Documents w/o Special Stock). The user cannot generate a physical inventory document for a certain material.
    The thing is, we no longer have any stock for this material (MMBE). I tried generating physical document again by ticking "Only Materials with Zero Stock" but to no avail.
    May I ask what might be the reasons behind? Your prompt response is highly appreciated.
    Thank you very much.
    Best Regards,
    Albert

    Hi,
    Please check also the existing physical inventory document for material, probably you still have active physical document from previous period.
    1. Go to MI22 --> select your plant, storage location or you can also specify your material number --> execute.
    2. Check your Physical Document list, at field Status doc. --> if the status is Doc. active, but it is not in your current period, then it could be the problem.
    3. Delete the physical inventory doc that you found in step 2 (use tcode MI02 --> physical doc, year --> choose delete button)
    4. Try to create new physical document for the material.
    hope this help.

  • Creating Physical Inventory at Material/Quant level

    Hi,
    Is it possible to do Physical inventory at material /quant level in the Warehouse management.
    We dont want to do cycle count.
    Is their a way to do physical inventory at material/quant level

    Hi
    With WM you can do Continuous Inventory which counts at the bin level AND if you want to count by Material you can use transaction LICC to do this but in transaction OMNK you set the Invent method to PZ and select the Cycle count box (And the rest of the settings for physical inventoy)
    You then have to make your settings for cycle counting in OMCO
    Once this is done you can use either to count with

  • Need help in creating a Physical Inventory Document with HUs given

    Hi Gurus,
    There is a problem I am facing while doing a ALV report.
    I have created the report and there is a button which i have fixed which has to create Physical Inventory Document.
    The scenario is:
    I will select the records in the report based on the Vessel Bill Of Lading (VBOL) (related to Batch characteristics of a material) and then i need to pass those values to create Physical Inventory Document.
    I got a functional module HUINV_DOCUMENT_CREATE which will create the document but I am not clear what are the values that I need to pass in this.
    Or do anyone know how to create the Document by passing HU (Handling Units) and Plant & Storage Location?
    Please help me in the same.
    Thanks and Regards

    Physical Inventory:
    Physical Inventory is a business process in which physical stock is matched with book (system) stock. It is legal requirement to carry out physical inventory at least once in a year.
    Physical inventory can be carried out both for a companyu2019s own stock (Unrestricted, Quality, Blocked Stock) and for special stocks (Customer Consignment stock, Vendor consignment stock from vendor, Returnable packaging). This inventory is carried out saperately for both type of stocks.
    Physical Inventory Processes:
    Several inventory processes available for physical inventory which includes as follow:
    1. Periodic Physical Inventory
    o All stocks of the company are physically counted on the balance sheet key date
    o Every material must be counted
    o Entire warehouse must be blocked for material movements during count.
    2. Continuous Physical Inventory
    o Stocks are counted continuously during the entire fiscal year.
    o It is important to ensure that every material is physically counted at least once during the year.
    3. Cycle Counting
    o In this method of physical inventory, inventory is counted at regular intervals within a fiscal year.
    o These intervals (or cycles) depend on the cycle counting indicator set for the material in Material Master record as CC indicator in plant view data.
    o With this Cycle Counting Method of Physical Inventory allows fast-moving items to be counted more frequently than slow-moving items.
    4. Inventory Sampling
    o Randomly selected stocks of the company are physically counted on the balance sheet key date.
    o If found not much variance between the counted stock and the book book stock, it is presumed that the book inventory balances for the other stocks are correct.
    Physical Inventory Process Cycle Flow
    1. Creation of physical inventory document
    - Physical inventory document(s) is created individually or using the batch program, click for more information
    - The transaction codes for creation physical inventory are as follow
    Individual Inventory documentation creation
    MI01 - Individual physical inventory creation
    MIS1 - Inventory Sampling document creation
    MICN - Cycle count inventory document creation
    Collective Inventory document creation
    MI31 - Own stock without special stock
    MIK1 - Vendor consignment
    MIQ1 - Project stock
    MIM1 - Returnable Transpiration material
    MIW1 - Customer Consignment stock
    MIV1 - Returnable material with customer
    MIO1 - Material provided to Vendor (Subcontracting material)
    2. Print physical inventory document
    - Physical Inventory document can be printed based on the physical inventory document status and or item status
    - Transaction code MI21 is used to print the inventory document where print default value can be populated
    3. Count the physical stock
    - Based on the inventory document printout, the warehouse person will check the stock of material physically and note that on print out. This is completely physical process.
    4. Enter count in system
    - On completion of physical count, the count result is needs to be entered in the system. This can be with reference (using Tcode MI04) or without reference (using Tcode MI04) to the physical inventory document.
    - If count quantity for that material is ZERO then select ZC (zero count) column instead of putting 0 in qty field. If 0 is used for zero count then systm will consider that as "not counted"
    5. Analyze difference
    - Once count is posted in the system, difference analysis can be carried out using transaction MI20
    - The output gives information based on the input criteria i.e. physical inventory document, plant, material etc.
    - The output gives information about the book quantity, Counted quantity, difference in quantity and value.
    - From this output list, you can carry out further process ie initiate recount, change count quantity, post difference
    6. Initiate recount and follow the steps 3,4,5
    - If found unacceptable difference, recount is initiated using directly from difference analysis list (transaction code MI20) or using transaction code MI11.
    - New inventory document will be created for selected items or for entire document
    - The original document items will be deactivated once recount is initiated so original document will not be available for further process.
    - On initiating recount, you need to process same as for new count document.
    7. Post the difference
    - Several options are available for posting difference
    - Post difference after count is posted using transaction code MI07
    - Posting the count and inventory differences using transaction code MI08, here you have created physical inventory but not counted so with this you can count and post difference in sinle step.
    - Entering the count without a document reference using trasnaction code MI10, with this you can create inventory document, enter the count and post difference in single step.
    some more points for posting difference
    - Posting period must be open to post inventory difference.
    - The fiscal year is set by specifying a planned count date when creating a physical inventory document.
    - Tolerence to crear difference per user group can be set in customization.
    - The system will generate material document for the difference qty and post the value to appropriate account (for valuated stock)
    - The movement type in material document will be 701 or 702 based on gain or loss of material.
    Serial Numbers in Physical Inventory
    If material is managed with serial number then it is possible to carry out physical inventory for material with serial number. There are some pre-requisite before you carry out physical inventory for serialized materials.
    - Serial number profile must be maintained in the material master.
    - the serialization procedure MMSL (maintaining goods receipt and goods issue documents) has to be assigned to serial number profile.
    - The stock check indicator in the serial number profile should be configured.
    - Maintain basic settings for the serial numbers in customization for Serial Number Profile.
    - Configure serial number management for physical inventory in the Settings for Physical Inventory step in Customizing for Inventory Management.
    Blocked Stock Returns are the stock which is return stock from Customer or the stock which can be return back to vendor. To restrict the usage of this stock mostly business do transfer posting for this mateial as BLOCKED stock
