Batch Management - Change of procedure
hi .,
Customer have present Batch Management of their materials , Batch wise.
They would like to change their Batch Management to Material wise instead of their present Batch wise management.
Question is: Can it be done. If it can be done, how to proceed to the next step.
What are the configuration steps to be taken for converting batch management from Batch wise to Material wise management.
Will there have to be NIL Stock of material in transit or in stock to implement this.?
Is it advisable to change the Batch management procedure ?
Appreciate your response.

Batch Management. All or Nothing?
Hi All
We have just added a new warehouse to one of our existing plants taking us up to four
Plant A Warehouse 1
Plant B Warehouse 2
Plant C Warehouse 3
Plant D Warehouse 4
Can I activate batch management in Warehouse 4 only? Or do i have to activate it in all warehouses?
Material will me moving from W4 to W1,2,3 using planned stock transport orders. Will this work if W1,2,3 do not have batch management?
Thanks in advance
Darrenbatch mangement can be activated at client level, material level or plant level only. WM has to follow this setup as you cannot setup batch managment at WM level.
As you cannot easily remove batch managment from a material and you cannot really switch back and forth between batch levels, you should really seriously think about the batch level.
if you choose plant level, then it is possible to manage the same material in one plant with batches while you do it without batches in other plants.
if this is really the case with you, then plant level is the only way.
But usually the requirment if a material is managed in batch or not, is not really dependend on a plant. Many companies regret their initial decision to go with plant level and spent many thousand $ to change it to a different level later. -
Specific Identification Cost for batch managed items (Follow-Up from P2P)
Specific Identification Cost method is used for serial and batch managed item. Using this method, the outbound cost of such items would be the original cost of specific goods, which can be determined according to the serial or batch number of that item.
Business One allows the user to receive batch managed items with a batch number that already exists in the DB. Its possible that the received quantity is added to on-hand quantity in the warehouse. In such case, the quantity on-hand of that batch and the received quantity may have different costs.
What should be the system behavior in such case:
1. Block receipts to the same batch with different costs.
2. Write the difference to a price difference account, as done in Standard Cost method.
3. Manage the batch cost with Moving Average method.
This thread is continuation from 'Specific Identification Cost for batch managed Items' <a href="http://p2p.sap.com/businessoneforum?type=join&login=1&uid=41FB661A76CED536C825C4E2B6FF4397&cid=91&go=z37225">discussion</a> in P2P SAP Business One Forum (Product Development Collaboration).
Previous discussion on P2P is summarized in the attached file.Hi Peter,
This is a very important functionality that you are describing here. For example, in the Steel industry, it could be extremely useful to cost by batch or serial number.
If you receive a batch that already exists in the system and if the costing method for the product is moving average, then teh cost of the batch should be calculated based on the moving average as well.
If the costing method is standard, then the cost should go in a variance account.
If the costing method is FIFO, then it is a getting trickier...

Goods Issue from ECP with Batch Management
Hi experts,
I would like to make a Goods Issue from Execution Services in Easy Cost Planning. But the material has Batch Management active and I am not able to inform the batch.
I know I can make the same movement from MB1B but I would like to do it from the Easy Cost Planning environment.
Is it possible?

We already have the batch and deactivating batch management has no sense.
> We need to be able to inform the batch when we are making the goods issue from the Execution Services.
Dear,
I think you can solve this through your Characteristics in the Costing Model. In the Characteristic Edit Screen, Goto Values tab, Select your material and click on Object Dependecies Button, see if you can use or create a new Dependency for your material for picking or suggesting batch number.
Hope this helps...
Thanks,

nullProblem: I have a Perl script in my AIR App's install directory that needs executable permissions on a Mac.
Solution: Chmod the file in my AIR App.
My code looks something like the following:
if (Capabilities.os.indexOf("Mac OS") > -1) {
var dlFile:File = File.userDirectory;
var _chmod:File = new File("/bin/bash");
dlFile = new File(file);
var nativeProcess:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
var chmodStartupInfo:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
chmodStartupInfo.executable = _chmod;
var args:Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();
args.push("-c");
// Trace so I can make sure the command and path are correct in the debugger
trace ("\"chmod ugo+x '"+dlFile.nativePath+"'\"");
args.push("chmod ugo+x '"+dlFile.nativePath+"'");
chmodStartupInfo.arguments = args;
nativeProcess.addEventListener(NativeProcessExitEvent.EXIT, onExitError );
chmodStartupInfo.executable = new File(file);
var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
process.start(chmodStartupInfo);
I really hope this helps someone else. -
Converting from finished products non-batch to batch management
Hi guys,
Can you tell what is the best strategy to convert a system from non-batch managed to batch managed for the finished and salable product? Batch management should have been implemented from the start, but my client just realized that mistake. This is knowing that we already have inventory and all kinds of transactional data: purchase orders, sales order, production orders...
I am looking for the less painfull strategy, as detailed as possible.
Thank you.
FotsoIts going to be painful.............
1) Reverse all material stocks. Create a new cost center and consume the available stocks to that cost center using 201 mvt type.
2) If there are any open sale orders for that material delete the line item in those sale orders.
3) Update the batch management indicator in the material master.
4) Add back the material in the respective sale orders.
5) Post the stocks with batches by reversal mvt type 202 from the cost center.

GSL. -

Hi,
Procedure to be followed to activate Batch Management for Materials: -
1. Mark Deletion Flag for all the Open Purchasing Documents of Materials
2. Technical Completion of Production Orders to cancel open Reservations of Materials
3. Create a Dummy Material for Material (Batch Management Active)
4. Generate details of Unrestricted Stock of Materials as per Bill of Entry
5. Transfer Stock of Materials to Dummy Material using Movement Type "309" in previous period (Stock will be transferred Bill of Entry wise)
6. Activate batch Management for Materials
7. Transfer Stock from Dummy Material to Materials
Note: -
1) If there is stock available in previous period and also stock available in current period then Transfer Posting from Material to Material can be done directly in previous period. (Comparison of Tables MARD and MARDH)
2) In case if there is stock in previous period but no stock available in current period then we have to post an initial stock entry using movement type "561" to generate stock in current period (Here Quantity = Stock in Previous period)
3) Reverse these Material Documents in previous period
There are several SAP notes that give some useful information:
30656 Change base unit of measure/batch mngt requirement
533383 Resetting batch management requirement
533377 Conversion of batch level
I hope this helps!
Thanks & Regards,

Removal of batch management indicator from material master
I had removed all batch stock from material code but when trying to remove batch management indicator from material master system is giving the message "batches already exist"
Please suggest the solution.Hi,
The material is NEW and Batch Managed. No stocks, orders, batches are existing.
If the Batch Management indicator is removed in Material Master, is there any way *to see/track the batch/lot * of the product.
Scenarios: Material is NOT Batch Managed
1. How to track a batch received for Purchase order.
2. How to track a Batch created in a Production order.
3. How to track a Batch in Sales Order.

Changing Batch Management Level from Material to Plant
Hi all,
We are investigating changing our batch management level from material to plant to meet business requirements.
SAP has pointed us to a note with a program to reset the batch level, as well as highlighting some things to look out for.
I've conducted the change in a playpen system and so far it looks relatively straightforward, with complexities arising only when characteristics exist, or when a batch exists in multiple plants.
Seems that batch master data is moved from MCH1 to MCHA, including the object link number to classification. Unfortunately it seems a limitation of the conversion is that the batch master data is copied to ONE plant only in MCHA, no doubt due to the fact the object number link to classification must be unique.
My question is this: has anyone performed this change before, and if so can you offer me any advice on what to look out for, or potential problems that arose after the change?
Any help or comments are appreciated.
Mark.hi..
first of all try this simple one...
You will have to delete all the materials, remove stock and then switch the batch management flag.
Or
To convert the batch from plant level to material there is Conversion Program defind by the SAP...
1. For all releases lower than Release 4.5B, implement the corrections and the modification in the report RM07CHDX as described in the correction instructions.
2. Create the report ZCHTCUCH, which is specified in the attachment.
3. Run this report in the clients for which you want to reset batch level to plant level.
4. Call transaction OMCT.
5. Check whether the batch level for "Batch unique at plant level" is set.
6. Implement Notes 821891, 944278, 950540 and 1091613 if you have not already done so (or you have not imported the corresponding Support Package).
7. Execute the function "Batch Level -> Conversion".
8. Define a plant for a plant view that may be missing.
9. Always execute the report in the test mode first. Analyze the error log.
10. If no errors occur, you can execute the report in production mode.
11. If you are working with batch long texts, first execute the report ZM07CHDX_TEXT in test mode.
try this out..hope is works,,

Change existing stock items from Non-Batch to Batch Management Method
Hi,
Any prerequisites before changing the existing stock items from Non-Batch to Batch Management method which have On hand stock qty? Please advise.
Thanks & Regards,
PriscillaHi
You can change the method only when, available Qty becomes zero.
OR
you can do one workaround :
Make Goods Issue of that Item and take value of stock in any GL,
and then change the method of that item, then make Goods Reciept by using that GL which was used in Goods Issue.

STO from non batch managed to batch managed - Incorrect batch being posted
Hi Folks,
We use STOs to transfer materials from a non batch managed plant into a batch managed plant with a one step movement. The process we use is to create the STO and enter material, batch, quantity and receiving plant / Sloc. Then create an outbound delivery (which pulls through the correct batch) for the STO which we pick and PGI. The movements are a 647 out of issuing plant (no batch), a 647 into receiving plant (no batch) and a 101 into receiving plant (with batch).
The problem I have is that even though the correct batch is in both the STO and the delivery, when the one step PGI is done SAP ignores the batch and automatically creates a new one.
Any one seen this before?
Cheers
KeithIsn't possible the material once had been batch managed but later batch management was removed (and batches archived)? You can have a look at change hisotry of material master <-- update: forget this suggestion...you cannot remove batch management indicator if you have stock...
If the material is really not batch managed (you can find relevant record in MCHA table) then it seems you have inconsitency in your system; it's better you report this error to OSS.

How Can We Change Batch Management Level From Client level to Plant Level?

Exclude batch managed inventory from MI31
How can we exclude those materials that have a batch attached to them from being included in the MI31 selection when it creates thePI document? We have deactivated the batch management tick in the material master, however, there is still stock sitting in the batch so we want to exclude it from the count.
Hi,
Though you have removed the Batch management indicator in Material master, the created batche won't go anywhere. Stock will be present and will reflect in PI. If you set the batch management indicator in material master and once batch creared and transaction executed, you cannot deactivate the batch management. I hope it gives you clarity. Thanking you.
