Batch or Serial Number

Hi,
My client has this requirement.Client is a chemical industry
Normally we produce ie. 1.000 unit material on a single production cycle on SAP and each stock unit has the same batch number (ie. 100045) on it.  Currently when we are producing those 1.000 unit, we are printing number from 1 to 1.000 to each unit. But when I sell number 870 to customer A, I can not trace it on SAP, because I only know that customer A has purchased from batch 100045. On SAP I can see which customers purchased from batch 100045 but I can not analyse the sales by unit production sequence number.
Can we use serial number for the same?
Can we use serial number and batch number both?
Please put your valuable suggestion.
Regards
PKB

yes you can use batch number and serial number managemnt in conjunction.
Please see this for more details...

  • IO 229 - Batch for serial number 1234 (BBB) differs from document batch AAA

    Hello All,
    We use batch management for serialized materials only at our central plant. For all other plants, there is no batch control. Sometimes we need to return materials back to the central plant but with a different batch number.
    When we do two step stock transfer 303 / 305, we receive the following error message if we don't use the original batch number.
    "IO 229 - Batch for serial number 1234 (BBB) differs from document batch AAA".
    However, when we use one step plant to plant stock transfer 301, there is no error message. The batch number is also updated correctly in IQ02.
    I wonder if there is any configuration to use 303 / 305 with different batch numbers.
    Thanks,
    Hakan

    Thanks Arminda.
    64044 recommends to use 309 to change the batch, which works but this is an additional step.
    Currently 1 step plant to plant transfer i.e. 301 doesn't require this additional step. It updates the batch information with no problem.
    Is there any configuration option to change the behavior of 305, so that we don't have to do an additional movement?

  • Retrieve batch from serial number in MIGO transaction

    Dear all  Gurus,
    My company already implement ECC6.0 with IS-Retail function. And I have some concern that my company would like to activate batch for control the stock at DC and Store level and some articles also control serial number.
    When I would like to move the stock (ex. stock transfer between storage location MVT 311) in sap system I need to specify the batch first and specify serial number later. But in the physical stock what we know is serial number. So would it be possible to specify serial number first and let's the system to find out batch from serial number?
    And one concern it's possible that serial numbers that I select maybe have different batch number.
    Ex. Serial Number 1 belong to batch A
          Serial Number 2 belong to batch B
          Serial Number 3 belong to batch B
    When posting in MIGO transaction it's should to split in 2 line
    First line Mat xxx      Qty 1 Batch A Serial Number 1
    Second line Mat xxx Qty 2 Batch B Serial Number 2, 3
    Have anyone already have some case like this? Please help to suggest possible solution.
    Best Regards,
    Kate

    Hi Kate,
    I have some experience in Batch Management with IS Retail ECC 6. I believe their is a valid solution to it.
    coming to your query of way to aviod manually assignment of batches and spliting it for the site to site stock transfer via mvt type 301 or 311.
    we need to create Batch Search Strategy and Sort Rule for it.  The steps to do it as follows.
    1. Create a  Characteristic via CT04 for batch handling in the search strategy with class type "23"table name "MCHA" and field name "CHARG". If you are working with fixed value of batches, define it as the characteristic values or if you have batches creating internally by the system, Put a * in it.
    2. Create a class in CL02 with class type "23" and assign this newly created characteristic to it.
    3. Now create a sort rule in CU70 and assign this same characteristic to it and select the ascending or desending check box based upon your choice of "FIFO" or "LIFO".
    4. Now create a new strategy for batch determination while doing different inventory movements. Go to Logistics General  Batch Management  Batch Determination & Batch Check  Strategy Types  Define Inventory Management Strategy Type. Copy the standard one and create one for you and assign the class and sort sequence created above to it and define the number of spilts of batches, should happen, if in case one batch is insufflcient to handle the required movement of stock. maximum it could be 999.
    5. Now create batch search procedure definition. Go to Logistics General  Batch Management  Batch Determination & Batch Check  Batch Search Procedure Definition  Define Inventory Management Search Procedure. Copy the standard one and create one for you and assign the condiiton type created in the step above (strategy) and save it.
    6. Now assign the class created above to all the relevant article via CL20N.
    7. Now assign batch search procedure to the relevant movement types. Go to transaction OMCG and assign the mvt type 301, 311 and other relevant movement types.
    8. Maintain the condition record for the Batch Search Strategy via MBC1 / MBC2.
    9. Activate Batch classification for goods movements via OMCV as per choice.
    I trust it will help you a lot. If you find and believe the same, please assign the relevant points to me.

  • Set Article which control batch and serial number at component level

    Dear experts,
    I have some concern about set article as  the requirement for sale set my company would like to control inventory at component level and at the component level we required to control batch and serial number.
    So, when posting GR of sale set article system will auto split material to control inventory at component level with MVT 319 and in this step should possible to manual define serial number for component.
    Example
    Header Sale Set A  (Activate valuation type)
    Comp1 : B (Activate serial number and control serial number during GR ref PO , control Batch)
    Comp2 : C (Control Batch)
    GR : Header Sale Set A
    Expected Solution : System should automatic to split to comp1 and comp2 , for Comp1 B will require to input serial number.
    Fact : During testing, system auto split to comp1 and comp2 for comp1 I can input serial number but after save the serial number that I input are gone.
    I 'm not sure that for set article can we control serial number at component level? If anyone have the expereince in this. Please help ?

  • PS Batch/Droplet serial number not incrementing?

    Hello
    I'm hoping someone can provide a solution.
    I'm trying to make a batch that ill then convert to a droplet so I can then use a watch folder to run the droplet. (Automate as much as possible, as I process a lot of files)
    A little how I would process files at present: Open mockup in PS>run batch with action already created, once complete, move onto the next mockup.
    Now the master mockup file I use has a smart layer that I place data into, this then transforms the pasted image into a mockup to represent the product.
    Now the problem, the serial number does not increment as I'm trying to use a droplet I have to include an open and close command for the mockup, this then stops the number incrementing. (The number must be attached to the PS file). This then keeps exporting the files and over riding 001 every time.
    We use extend script with illustrator daily so I'm not sure if using this is a solution?
    Any feedback is highly appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Try using the Image  Processor Pro in the action you used to create the droplet.   If the output file exist that script will generate the next name. Actions can not use logic on their own.  If the droplet you create has a problem naming the output file that it replaces files rather then generating the next name the action you created the droplet  needs to use some scripting. See that the output file exists and if it does generate a unique name upping the sequence number till  its unique one that does not exists.  Actions can not use logic without using a script.
    The Image Processor script is not a plug-ij it will always show its dialog.  The Image Processor Pro script is a Photoshop Plug-in It will bypass displaying iys dialog when user by playing the action step that was generated recording its used.  What it recorded will be used.    Once installed the Image Processor Pro script is accessec and recorded usinf  menu File>Automate>Image Processor Pro...   Where the non plug-in Image Processor the ships with Photoshop is Access via menu File>Scripts>Image Processor.  It does not have plug-in support programmed in. It can not record settings into an actions step.
    When you record the IPP action the dialog will show and IPP will record the settings used into the action step,  When the action is played the dialog will not show instead the recorded setting will be use.  If you do not turn on that action step dialog.
    There is no requirement to use the bridge.... Infact if you use the bridge to select files then use menu tools Photoshop Image processor Pro  you will not be using  your droplet or action..  If you set up the IPP dialog to use your action that uses IPP I think it may fail recursive use of a plug-in is questionable.

  • Master Batch change for serial number in stock with status "ESTO" by IQ02

    Hi,
    How  to change master batch for serial number in stock with status "ESTO" by IQ02 transaction?

    Hi Harsh,
    if this field is not ready for input you have set the stock check to '02 Error' in your serial number profile in order to ensure
    consistency between the stock data of serial numbers and inventorymanagement.
    In this case you have to do a material movement posting inMB11 with movement type 309 (material to material). Enter the new batch as batch of the receiving material. This movement will update both the master batch and the stock batch of the serial number.

  • Cancel insp.lot for batch material with serial number?

    We have a problem with an inspection lot....
    A few months ago we made a goods receipt for batch material... it ended up in Q- stock.
    The weeks went by and the material was changed ito a serial number material... that process works fine...
    But now we want to scrap the material that is batch-handeled ... the inspection dont want to let go.. it want serial numbers... even if I create serial numbers for this the inspection lot
    dont let me register any numbers.. So I cant cancel/delete it... And after all I just want to scrap the batch...
    Can someone help me?
    // Andreas

    if stock of that material with serial numbers exist, then scrap that stock and disable the serial number for the material by deleting the serial number profile in the work scheduling view of the material master.
    then try cancelling the inspection lot. After cancelling the inspection lot, activate the serial number for that material again and bring back the scrapped stock into the unrestricted use.
    Note: please advice the users not to post any stock for that material till you complete this or else block the posting t.code for all the users.

  • How to add Serial Number to the batch report name?

    How to format the report name for batch model to have <Sequencename>_<batch_SerialNumber>_<DateTime>.xml. Everytime a different sequence is executed the report file name should be formated with that sequence name and batch serial number porvided. I am using TS4.1
    Sequential model has a Determine Report File Path, is there something similar for batch model also, if so where?
    Thanks.

    Did hit Post too early, here is the remaining,
    For the second part 
    have the serial number of each individual DUTs included in its file name
    The setting in Report Option will also save the UUT report with UUT serial Number included in the following format:
    SeqFileName_[UUT][Date][Time].xml where [UUT] will store the UUT serail number.

  • Adding batch serial number to report file name in sequential model

    Hi,
    I'm using a Sequential model in TS 4.0 and have learned how to add the UUT serial number to the report file name. But I would like to add the batch serial number instead. Is this possible? Any modifications to the ReportOptions callback seem to only modify the temp report name.
    Thanks!
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    While Paul's suggestion may be useful in this case, if you would like the flexibility of customizing your Report File Pathnames further, you may want to consider upgrading to TestStand 4.2.
    In TestStand 4.2 we introduced predefined macros and the ability to use custom expressions to specify the Report File Pathname. For example, the <Batch> macro will add the Batch Serial Number to the Report File Pathname as you specify it.
    Please see the Using Expressions to Customize Report File Paths section of the TestStand 4.2 Reference Manual for more information on these new reporting features and how one might use them. For a specific explanation of the different macros and what they might be used for, please see the Specifying Report File Paths by Expression section of the TestStand 4.2 Online Help.
