Batch derivation - Functionality.

I have issue with the batch derivation functionality.
I would like to copy specific characteristics from sending batch (component) to receiving batch (header material)
Can anybody provide me the guideline configuration steps, and master data requirement for batch derivation functionality.
Cheers!

Configuration requirements
1.         Batch derivation functionality need to be active
2.         Derivation required option: Automatic for production order release, and manual derivation in case of change
Master data requirements:
1.         Recipient / sender condition records
2.         Characteristics maintenance of sender and receiving material
3.         Class assignment to finished product
Activate Batch Derivation
1.         Define batch derivation, Activation of batch derivation (Transaction: DVSP)
2.         Define derivation events
3.         Create batch derivation for Release process / production order Manual derivation (Optional)
4.         Maintain number range for derivation number (Transaction: DVC1)
Number ranges has to be configured manually in each client
Master data setup
1.         Maintain the classification of receiving material and sending material
2.         Ensure that the copying characteristic/s exists in both the classes of sending material and receiving class
3.         Maintain the master data for the following
a.         Recipient / sender condition records (DVR1/DVS1)
b.         characteristics maintenance of sender and receiving material
c.         class assignment to finished product
Transaction:
1.         Production order release (CO01)
2.         DVMAN u2013 Manual derivation

  • Batch Derivation - No sender found during manual derivation & order release

    Folks,
    I'm trying to simulate the batch derivation functionality but couldn't get it work. I have used both manual and release production order derivation events.
    Necessary configuration is setup including batch where used list and related derivation configuration.
    I have setup the condition records as follows (it is based on pull derivation; 1 receiver and n sender)
    For sender condition, I have condition record based on receiving + sending material combination, in which I defined two sending materials (both HALB) along with the receiving material (FERT). VFDAT (SLED) is my field attribute.
    For recipient condition, I have condition record based on material number, which is the same FERT material. VFDAT (SLED) is my field attribute and standard rules have been maintained.
    Both HALB materials have batches with VFDAT (SLED) dates.
    For manual derivation, I created a batch for the FERT without any VFDAT data in it and I'm trying to run DVMAN transaction for this FERT batch to invoke derivation, but it errors with two messages "No sender found for attribute VFDAT" & "The system did not find any sending batches".
    I tried using a production order release as well, but it's the same problem.
    Any thoughts as to why it is not working??
    Thanks!!

    Figured it out. I forgot to assign batches before invoking batch derivation.

  • Batch Derivation

    Hi Gurus,
    We are having ECC 4.6C and we wanted to implement the batch derivation functionality. Presently I am facing one problem, it is that, as per sap, batch derivation takes place while doing the goods reciept for the process order, making the usage decision for a batch or by manually (Manual derivation).
    I made the following master data,
    1) Derivation sender record
    2) Derivation reciever record.
    But the derivation is not happening at the time of goods reciept or at the time of usage decision but it happens if i did the manual derivation.
    For your information in 4.6c , batch derivation functionality is in the hidden form i.e. there is no menu emtry for it.
    If I want derivation to happen at the time of goods reciept then what I need to do.
    Please suggest.
    Regards
    Ravi

    You may not have the config settings set for this.
    Logistics-General ---> Batch Management -->Derivation of Batch Data --> Define Derivation Events.
    In the table, make sure you have an entry for 400 - Goods receipt for process/production order.  Make sure the right search procedures are specified.
    The above is from 6.0.  Hopefully your 4.6 config is similar.

  • Batch derivation without production

    Experts,
    Can we use the batch derivation functionality if no production module is active? Or do you always need such things like production and process orders?
    Thanks,
    Philippe

    You can only use batch derivation if the batch-where-used-list is updated.  If you have the correct entries needed in that, then yes.
    But usually, without, process or production orders, the batch-where-used list is not fully updated with the records needed to do the mapping.  You'll only have material movement info and that probably won't have enough info for batch derivation.

  • Batch Derivation in 4.6C

    Dear Gurus,
    Please guide if any one has implemented the functionality of Batch Derivation in 4.6c version.
    SAP provides this as a hidden fuctinality for this version.
    I have referred the related notes regarding it but would like to know more about how to proceed.
    Thanks in advance
    Sushant

    Dear,
    Please note that in 4.6C this functionality is not activated. But we can do it by defining custom progam.
    What do you mean by "hidden function"

  • Batch derivation in Production order

    Hi all
    I am using batch derivation successfully by copying the sender batch expiration date to the receiver batch expiration date. Is there a way that I can copy the sender batch number to the receiver batch number?
    thanks a lot

    John,
    I don't think you can do that.  The sender/receiver functionality only works between existing batches.  The batch is created first, then the data is transferred.  You can't send data to a batch that hasn't been created yet.  If the batch is created, you can't really change the batch number after the fact.
    At least not via batch derivation.

  • Batch derivation in goods receipt for production order

    Hi all,
    i have set up batch derivation for the event 'goods receipt for production order'. The field derived is HSDAT (date of manufacture) /minimum. Although in the batch derivation monitor I can see tha the derivation was performed OK and the correct date (oldest of the components) is selected the field in the Batch is not updated. Can anyone help??

    Hi Vagia,
    Your problem sounds like derivation type issue.
    Please check your derivation type to be static for the 400 event.
    Let us know if this helped.

  • In consistency during Batch Derivation in Process Order

    Hi,
    During Batch Derivation in process order, multiple old batches of sender material proposing even though actually only single Batch of sender material determined, and transferring the characteristic values from old batches to the Receiver material which is in-correct. (I am working with SAP ECC 6.0)
    Can any one advise if required to execute/run any program to correct the system in-consistency,
    regards,
    Purna

    Dear Pruna,
    please check if the correct level of WUL is defined in derivation rules 
    Mostly the problem is caused by default value 99 here. You can check and
    change the value in transaction DVR2.

  • Batch Derivation Logic

    Dear Experts,
    I have one issue in Batch derivation Logic: For Batch derivation we have to create Strategy Type & Condition Type suppose if i create 2 condition types for sending Material like 1) Plant specific means In condion Table We have to give Sender Material Type & Plant & 2) Client Specific means in Condition Table we have to give only Sender Material Type then which condition type system will take while Batch Derivation.

  • Mfg. Date in Batch Derivation

    Hi Friends,I have configured Batch derivation. I have maintained condition records for sender and reciever material types. When I am issuing material having different batches for sender materials, Sytem is taking first lineitems mfg date in that line item's batch. But we want the mfg date from batch having highest qty. Can any body suggest, what I have to do?
    Regards

    Hi
    In Tcode DVR3 against the characteristic, select Rules Tab and maintain Maximum value under Rules for Value selection
    for more than one sender.

  • Batch file rename.  I have multiple files I want to rename, that have a date in their name in the mm/dd/yy format. The slashes seem to freak out the batch rename function.  Any workarounds that would help me avoid manually changing each name?

    OS X Yosemite 10.10.2, Macbook Air,
    Finder batch file rename function. I have multiple files I want to rename, that have a date in their name in the mm/dd/yy format. The slashes seem to freak out the batch rename function and it won't work.  I took out the slashes and worked fine.  Any workarounds that would help me avoid manually changing each name?  I should point out that I want to leave most of the name intact just change the first word in each name.  Also the files I'm working with are in PDF format.

    That's a comment in the file. It has no effect at all.

  • Use Batch-Input function module in WebDynpro?

    Hi,
    is it possible to use a batch-input function module in WebDynpro? This function module is RFC enabled, and would be executed only in background mode. The purpose is to create some business document in ERP, since we only have a dialogue transaction which is not encapsulated in BAPI, function module ...
    Thanks a lot!

  • Batch Derivation not happening consistently

    Dear Experts,
    Pls guide me to identify and resolve the following problem:
    I have configured the batch derivation and maintained the necessary condition records.
    The derivation event is defined as the GR for Production order.
    The problem is, for certain orders the derivation is not working and giving the error as (in T Code DVMO):
    - Warning Rule "No empty sender fields" broken for attribute XXXX.
    inspite of the fact that field (XXXX) in the RM batch being already filled, still data is not getting transferred to the produced batch.
    However, the derivation is working for other production orders (around 60%).
    Where I could have missed the point.
    Kindly help me out.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rohit Chauhan.
    Added: Can there be any thing at material master level which can cause this problem, because the material is either deriving the data or failing. Both cases are not existing for any single material.
    Edited by: Rohit Chauhan on Sep 9, 2009 10:05 AM

    Did you build your batch where used list up?  Is it being update in real-time or or a regular basis via a batch job?
    Look at the dates and times of the orders that fail.  You may find they are older ones, or newer ones depending on when you built the batch where used list and how or when it is being updated.
    The other possibility is that the orders that are failing are not being properly processed.  Look at the batch where used list and see if you can trace the order information back to the batch that the results should be coming from.  If you can't see the batch in the history of the order on the batch where used list then the system can't derive the results.
    There is also setting in teh derivation record as to how many generations to go back I believe.  You may need to go further back in some cases then what you might have it set at.

  • Batch derivation for recursive bom

    hello,
    anybody please help me. when iam doing batch derivation for recursive BOM its not working. my recipent batch no is alo coming in sender batch no. its doing deling between sender batch no and recipent batch no. how can i solve this issue.
    thanks and regards
    bhakta.

    Hi Bhakta,
    Bigger problem in your case is not multiple Batches of RM but more then one Batch No. of Header Material in single production Order.I guess in your case Batch No. are triggered at the time of GR and not in Production Order at the time of Release.Correct?
    But up to my knowledge Batch Derivation is triggered at the time of Batch Creation in Production order.For which you have to first carried out Batch Derivation of sender Material.But in your cases the scenario is totally different due to Batch is created at the time of GR.So Difficult one and can be possible if you go with 1 Batch for 1 prod. order.
