Batch Record Indicator

Dear SAP Guru,
Good day to you.
I would like to know the path or where in Customizing should i set the batch record indicator as indicated below.
We are currently dealing withn a scenario wherein we could not archive via COEBR the batch and the Material we created even though the batch usage decision has been completed and we found the note below.
"In future, use an order type for which the Batch record required indicator has been set in Customizing. The system then sets the BRRQ (Batch record required) status in the order and the corresponding inspection lot when you release the order."
I would greatly appreciate your reply.
Thanks,
JMTafalla

Are you talking about Batch where used list?
When compiling the batch where-used file, the system generates the receipt and issue records required for the batch where-used list for the material document items. Are you talking about these records?
    If yes, maintain it in transaction OCHA, -> make settings for batch where used list.

  • Batch Managment Indicator

    Hello,
    I want to remove batch managment indicator in material master record.
    I got info that there is an archiving process to be done using t code MSC2N and SARA and after that indicator can be removed.
    But before that pre requisites is there should not be any open document. Stock report MMBE shows that no stock present but still not able to un check the indicator as there are purchasing/Material documents present.
    How can i find those documents...

    hi..
    try thisout..
    Remove all stock.
    Cancel all demand, no requisitions, no purchase orders,
    production orders etc. Transaction MD04 must be empty.
    Use transaction MSC2N to place a deletion indicator on every
    past batch for that material prior to the end of your fiscal period or
    month.
    Run transaction MM74 to archive the "flagged for deletion" batch
    numbers.
    In the next period or month go to transaction MM02 and remove
    the batch flag from the material master.
    hope it works.
    Thanks..

  • Batch Management Indicator not getting set for material master

    Hi,
    In one of the material we need to mark the Batch Management Indicator in Material MAster. We had removed all the stocks from the material. But still we are getting error, Stock exists for the material in Plant XXX and Sloc YYY.
    I checked in MARD table and MMBE that for this maaterial there are no stock for said Sloca and Plant.
    One thing which I noticed in the Material Master and MARDH table that there exists some stock in Previous persiod for the said Sloc and Plant.
    Need to know is this error is due to stock shown in previous period. Why system is checking the previous period stock.
    How can we resolve our issue and check this Indicator.
    Please let me know as earliest as possible.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Refer OSS Note 30656 - Change base unit of measure/batch mngt requirement
    Following are the details of this note;
    Symptom
    When maintaining a material master record, you change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator or the valuation category. The system then tells you that this change is not possible since stocks still exist. However, no stocks are shown for the material in the stock overview.
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The message that stocks still exist refers not only to stocks in the current period, but also to stocks in the previous period.
    The reason for checking previous period stocks is that postings can also be made to the previous period when entering goods movements. This would result in inconsistencies if the base unit of measure had meanwhile been changed.
    Solution
    Please check whether stocks still exist for the previous period by displaying, for example, the plant stock view or storage location stock view of the material. You do this by selecting "Extras -> Previous period -> Prev. pd SLoc. stock or Prev. pd plant stock".
    If previous period stocks exist, you can make a withdrawal posting as follows:
          1. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period stock are identical.
          2. Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
    You can now try again to change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator.
    Since the posting of the previous period values to zero is identical with posting to the stocks of the current period, you should reverse the above stock postings (i.e. the stock from the previous period should be booked in again) to make sure that the stock values from the previous and the current periods correspond to the state before the change. Please note, however, that the postings are then carried out using the changed master data from the current period (e.g. account determination, etc.)

  • From which table and field can I get batch split indicator?

    Dear friends,
    There is batch split indicator at VL02N screen. From which table and field can I get this indicator?
    Thanks regards..

    Hi,
    I dont think there is anythign called batch split indicator.
    You can find that there is a batch split in a delivery if LIPS-UECHA field is updated for a particular delivery. If UECHA is filled, then the number means that for the item number mentioned in UECHA, those records are the split records.
    i.e. For example say for a line item 10, there are 2 split items in a delivery. In this case, there will be two line items with LIPS-POSNR = 90001 and 90002. These line items will have LIPS-UECHA = 10. This means that the items 90001 and 90002 are the child batch items for the parent line item 10 as mentioned in UECHA field.
    btw....u can check LIPS-CHSPL if this is what you are looking for.
    I hope this answers your question. If you have any doubt, pls lemme know

  • Using Batch Record/Order Record for electronic Device History Record in PP

    We are evaluating the use of PP or PP-PI for production planning at a medical device company and one of the primary considerations is the ability to create an electronic Device History Record.  It looks like the Electronic Batch Record (COEBR) or Order Record (COPA) provides some of the capabilities required, but they do not appear to work with discrete PP.  While I realize that the differences in functionality between PP and PP-PI are small (and getting smaller), I am surprised that SAP would require medical device companies to use PP-PI to handle this business requirement?
    How have other companies dealt with the eDHR business requirement?

  • COEBR Unable to generate batch records - weird error!

    Hey Experts,
    I am trying to create Electronic Batch Records using COEBR. Unfortunately, I am getting a weird error. After a few batches get selected based on the selection criteria, when I click "Batch Record" I get the message "Unable to generate batch records". But when I reselect the same batch and click "Batch Record" again I get the following message: "Batch record(s) successfully generated". But actually no batch record gets created...SAP is lying to me!!!! The icing on the cake - no logs get created as well.
    The "Batch record required" indicator is set both on the Material Master (Work Scheduling) and the Order-Type dependant parameters.
    One more thing, I was able to generate one, just one Batch Record but thereafter the darn thing broke!!!
    I am stumped, really need some help.
    Thank you in advance.

    Himani,
    If you want to just create PDFs from FM via the command line, then using one of the available FM batch utilities might be an easier route.
    Check out:
    DZbatcher at: http://www.miramo.com/english/overview/download.html
    runfm as part of mif2go and is fully functional in the mif2go demo. See: http://mif2go.com/xhtml/runfm_0002_363understandingrunfmcommandlinesyntax.htm#Rz134x44547

  • How to find out the batch class link of the batch record in the MSC3N

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to pull out the class type and the characteristic value for a batch which is found in MSC3N.
    For example, the following is MSC3N screen showing material (INM000000001724945) and batch (A000001117) tie to batch class “XXXXXXXX”.
    Hence, I would like to know:
    How to pull out the class type and the characteristic value for a batch record which is found in MSC3N? What are the table? The table show in the F1 key is not a table.
    There are two batch classes setup in the system “XXXXXXX” and “YYYYYYY”, my question is why system decides to use the batch class “XXXXXXX”? Where is the system setup to determine this?
    Thanks
    Tuff

    Hi
    The table MCH1 keeps the information about Material, Batch and Internal object no.: Batch classification (CUOBJ_BM).
    The field CUOBJ_BM in MCHA represent the 'Key of object to be classified' (AUSP-OBJEK). The first 18 characters of AUSP-OBJEK.
    In CABN (Characteristic) the field ATINN and ATNAM is important. The link between CABN and AUSP is through ATINN.

  • Batch Management Indicator Required - Material Master

    Hello,
    My requirement -
    Batch management field has to be required for material Type "FERT"
    1) I created a new field selection group for the field "batch management" (MARA-XCHPF)
    2) Created a new Field Reference group with "Required" entry (OMS9)
    3) Assigned the New Field Reference to the material Type in OMS2
    The batch management Field is now a mandatory field.
    Issue is, when we try to create only the basic Data Views of a FERT material, system does not allow to save the material untill the "Batch Management Indicator" is activated (even if we are not referencing to any plant specific views of the material master.)
    We need to have the the Batch management indicator a required entry for FERT, but at the same time should be able to create material master with basic data Field only (we would be extending the plant specific views later)
    Is there a alternative method to have this setting to meet the requirements above?
    Thanks

    Hi
    I think you can check if the batch level is defined on material or client now, if yes, you may check if that can be switched to plant level. As far as I knw the basic data is for client so the field is shown on basic data view and ask to input value as you customized.
    Alternatively, I think you can use the user exit MGA00001to check the field instead of the field selection, this is called when the material master get saved, then you can write your own source code to chec if the customer filled the  field only for certain situations.
    Best Regards.

  • Restrict the detail record based on the record indicator

    Hi, i have a master detail form
    when i query the form at header block it shows all the headers say
    header block
    header, line num, desc
    1, 1, pen
    1 ,2, rubber
    1 ,3, sketchpen
    line block
    line num, sub item ,cost
    1 ,1.1, 50
    1 ,1.2, 60
    2 ,2.1, 70
    2, 2.2, 5
    it shows the output in this way
    i want to restrict the line level block (say if my cursor is at record indicating row 1 in header) then in line level it should show
    lines pertaining to line num 1 and header 1 --eg pen records
    if my cursor is at line num 2 in header block, in line level block it should show only line num 2 details ie rubber details, how can i restrict this.
    Thanks,

    Define the relation between header and detail
    join condition : header.line_num = detail.line_num
    delete record behaviour : non-isolated
    prevent masterless operations : Yes
    after this if you navigate, the detail records will automatically gets queried accordingly.

  • Country of origin from Inforecord to batch record at GR time

    Hi Folks,
    We have a material which is purchased from 2 different vendors in different countries. The material is batch managed and a specific batch will only ever be purchased from 1 country. Some customers will only accept the material if sourced from 1 of the 2 countries. I have maintained the country of origin in the inforecord for each vendor. What I need to happen is that at the time of goods receipt of a new batch, the country of origin is passed to the batch record but this is not happening. The vendor is being pulled in, but not the CoO. The receipt is processed by an interface and not manually so it cannot be added manually at GR time.
    Do I need to use a user exit in the batch creation process to populate this field in the batch record (if so, any idea which one would be suitable), or is there another way of configuring it to populate automatically from the inforecord?
    Cheers
    Keith

    Hi,
    To fulfill your requirement please use the user exit. Possible two user exits are EXIT_SAPLV01Z_013 (enhancement SAPLV1ZN in trs SMOD) and EXIT_SAPMM07M_003 (enhancement MBCFC003). The user exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_013 is best option. Thanking you.

  • Problem with batch management indicator

    Hi Gurus,
    I have an issue with batch management.
    There is one material which was not batch managed. The requirement was to make it batch managed. There were no open purchase orders and the only thing pending was the stock in the present and previous periods. The stock quantity in the previous period  and the present period matched(470 Kg). I opened the previous posting period, used movement type 551 and scrapped the stock. There was zero stock for the current period and the present period.
    I changed the batch management indicator successfully. Now the issue is whil i am trying to cancel the material document
    1. Now that the material is batch managed, whie trying to cancel the material document using MIGO, the system prompts  for a batch to be entered. But the batch field is greyed out and i am not able to enter a batch
    2.  I have tried to cancel the material document using MBST and MIGO. The sytem prompts for a batch to be entered but not allowing me to do so as the batch field is greyed out.
    Any pointers will be appreciated.
    Many Thanks,
    Sajin

    Hi Sajin,
    What is a reason to cancel a material document? When was that material document created? Before or after flagging the indicator in the material master?

  • Problems with existing stock and batch management indicator

    Hi,
    We would like to set the batch management indicator for a material.
    However, there is stock on the material for the given plant.
    The different stock categories for the plant/material combination are as follows (according to transaction MMBE):
    Unrestricted use 150
    Reserved (for production ordeers) 42
    Open order qty (incoming PO) 100
    "When I try to set the batch management indicator in MM02 I receive the following error message:
    Material Master Maintenance
    The batch management requirement cannot
    be changed for the following reasons:
    Stocks already exist at plant level.
      Plant SLoc
       PL01 SL01
       PL01 SL02"
    Can someone please guide me in how to remove the stock and the reservations, so that we can set the batch management indicator? Does the reservations of stock have any impact (there are reservations for 5 different production orders for this material)?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lars

    in plant A, you have to add 21 in current period (e.g. with 202 movement), then you issue 171 in previous period. with 201. Result: both periods are zero.
    plant B, just issue 17 in previous period with 201.
    for Plant A   171 with movement 202 back into stock with previous period date, and subsequently 21 goods issue using 201 in current period.
    for plant B: 17 with movement 202 and previous period date.

    14 The Batch Corresponding to the plant has to be set for deletion indicator MSC2N
    If previous period stocks exist, we can make a withdrawal posting as follows
    1. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using
    movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period
    stock are identical.
    2. Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock
    together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
    If any of the above Stock Exists it has to be closed;If Any of the stock exists we cannot uncheck.
    After closing all the open items;the related business documents viz Purchase Orders,Production Orders,Delivery,etc has to be Archived
    Archiving has certain criteria while doing Archiving Process-- Systematic Archival is the Key factor i.e relationship diagram has be met.
