Blocking Plant for Specific Materials

HI,
Consider i have 10 materials which are extended to Plant 1 and Plant 2 and Sales Org1 and Sales Org2.
I want to restrict those materials for Plant1 i.e. when you try to create order in VA01 by that material and Plant1 it shall throw an error.
The options i have searched:
In MM06 we can mark the deletion indicator but that will throw only a warning and not an error
in Sales/org1 view there is a field for Dis specific block but that will restirct at Sales Org level and not plant level.
In MRP1 and Purchasing view we have plant specific indicator but that again will not throw error at time of order creation.
I can delete the material master for those plants but that i dont want to do.
So material master would be there for plant1 but still is there a way that while creating order it throws error for Plant1.

Block plant for all postings permanently

Dear All,
We have created new plant & business area.Henceforth, I want that all postings be made through this plant only & no posting should be allowed to be carried out in old plant.(Posting like creating sales order, PR,PO,MIGO etc.).
Since I want to retain all old data, I don't want to remove assignment of old plant with company code/sales Org./Pur. Org.
Is there any way to block the old plant for any posting from current date ?
Thanks & Regards,
PM

Hi,
Go to MM02
Select Purchasing View and under that Set the Indicator in the field of Plant-sp.matl status as 01,it will block all the transactions related to plant./
Thanks,

Hello,
You can think of using validation with the help of User Exit.
GGB0 - Create validation
OB28 - Assign the same

Block posting for Obsolete Materials in COPA

Hey All
We ahve a ascenario in which we post some expenses to the materials via FI transactions FB50. Nothing hits the stock accounts in these transactions. Only thing is while posting we assign the Materials to the PA segment so that we can run reports in COPA for the materials
Now some materials have been discontinued and the material plant status have been set to NOT to perform any transaction related to supply chain. BUT when posting through above FB50 trasnaction the system does stop it from posting and derivation for the obsolete material. I have even tried setting the deletion flag in MM06 for the material. Is there any solution to this so that we can stop material from posting
Thanks
Ankur

Hi
In my opinion, you need to use exit COPA0002 and put a check.. I dont think its possible in standard system
Another way is to change the description of these materials and add Text " DO NOT USE" so that users are aware while using it

Blocking/Flagging for deletion Materials

Hi
Can anyone advise what is the best method to disallow users from using materials in all modules of SAP. eg PM, IM, SD
1. flagging for deletion
2. or chaning the X-plant matl stat on Basic Data 1 or changing Plant-sp.matl status on MRP 1
thanks
Vishnu

Hi,
I agree,
The Xplant status is designed to do this and so it produces the correct blocks and the correct messages.
Add to this the fact that by using the delete flags how can you determine which materials are genuinely flagged for deletion and which ones are simply flagged because you want to block the movements.
The Xplant is to block all plants, the status on the purchasing and MRP views are Plant specific blocks only and can block the material at that plant and allow others to continue as normal.

Allow only SI units for specific materials

Dear all,
I need to do a change in order to allow only SI units for some material types.
Do you know a customizing which already does it (better if it can be specific for some material types).
Or should I develop an user exit (which table should I check to know if it's a SI unit) ?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Thanks Ajit but my users wants to specify only some material types. I think I have to do a user exit and create a specific customizing table with all material types

Block Material for sales by plant

Hello Guys,
I want to block the material for sales by plant, i have the material A created in 6 different plants and want to block the material for sale in one plant, i know about all the material blocks in Basic Data1 which is a global block and block on Sales Org1 will block it across the sales organization and block in Purchasing View, MRP view and costing are relevant to block the material for procurement in a plant.
All sales orders are created in CRM 4.0 and will replicate to R/3
Any development ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks
Regards
Uday

Hi Uday,
In that case, if you want to block for sales only a specific material or materials from a particular Plant within a Sales Organization, you may not have any standard options available. However, you may want to work with your ABAP colleagues on an userexit to achieve your objective during your sales order processing.
The following userexit may be useful for your purpose to define your rules for sales by Plant for specific materials within a sales Organization
User-Exit in program MV45AFZB -
USEREXIT_SOURCE_DETERMINATION
You can use this user exit to determine which plant will be used for the delivery. In the standard system, the delivering plant is copied from the customer master or the customer-material info record. If you want to use a different rule, then you must enter it in this user exit.
As per another update here in your forum, if you plan to stop sales completely from a particular Plant for ALL materials in a Sales Og, then you may want to de-link the Plant assignment to the Sales Org, if possible.
I hope this information helps you in your work.
Best Regards

How to make Delivery block at Sales Order Header level for specific materia

Hi,
My client want to create a delivery block EDI order at the Order Header level for specific materials
How can we achieve this.

Dear Varada rajan
Go to material master, select "Sales: sales org.1" view and assign "01" against the field "DChain-spec. status" and save. By assigning, for a particular sales area, you can block that material.
Now go to OVSU select 01 and assign "B" against the field "Block delivery".
Now create a sale order and post the outcome.
thanks

How to Block postings for WM managed storage location

Hi Experts,
The scenario is we want to block posting for all materials for a WM managed sloc. We cannot use Authorisation management due to some limitations. Please suggest any other way to do this.
Thanks

Thanks for your responses.
We are looking for an option where we do not have to do any configuration changes and flag for deletion or archive is not an option for us because it is just a temporary requirement. Moreover there are some technical limitations due to complexities in ALE so we cannot use MM06. Any other ways that anybody can think of?
Thanks

Grouping specific Materials together when running heuristics.

Hi,
I'd like to know what options are available to me to for keeping Orders for specific Materials grouped together when running heuristics.
For example, I have three Materials: Material A, Material B and Material C. Now, I want Material C to always be scheduled after Material B, but only if sufficient demand exists for it prior to the next run of Material B.
Maybe this illustration will help explain matters:
Week     SKU
1     Material A
2     Material A
3     Material B
4     Material C
5     Material A
6     Material B
7     Material A
8     Material A
9     Material B
10     Material C
11     Material A
12     Material A
13     Material C
So, in week 3, I need to produce Material B, but because Material C is required before I next produce Material B (week 6) and Material C must always follow Material B, a run of Material C is scheduled into week 4.
Is there a strategy I can use that will do this for me? Any pointers welcome.
Thanks,
Matty

Matty
Is this sequence fixed or is it going to vary every week. Like in your example , if you are always going to plan material C before material B , then how about scheudling a heuristic run for material C first and then a second heuristic run for material B (this has to run on success of the first heuristic run).
Thanks
Aparna
Hi Aparna,
Thanks for replying (and apologies for the delay - I've been on holiday!).
The sequence will always be the same: Material B followed by Material C. I can run heuristics indepedently for both Materials, but the problem with doing this is that it will simply schedule orders based on the demand of each, not considering the fact that these Materials need to be produced consecutively.
To confirm: Material B and Material C need to be 'glued' together production timing-wise, and then Material A will be scheduled in the gapsaround to fill up the capacity.
Does this make any more sense now?
Thanks,
Matty

Authorization control for ordering specific materials

Hi Experts
Is it possible to set up control on specific materials, so that those materials can not be allowed for procurement unless the authorization is provided.
In this context, can we use DG profile and assign certain authorizations?
The specific requirement is intended for identifying such material as well as for providing authorization for ordering.
warm regards
marias

Hi,
If you want to control on ordering material, you can set up Release Procedure, so that without approval ,purchase order can not be processed.
If you want to block the material for procurement, you can use Source list ( ME11), block the material , when ever required, you can remove the block and procure it and again block it.

Restrict F4 search results for specific plants / sales org / purchasing org

Hello All,
We have a project where a particular plant / sales org / purchasing org needs to be restricted because of the top secret data for that business. We would like to be able to restrict the search results that are displayed based on sales org / plant / purchasing org in the F4 help. If a user does not have access to the data / documents related a plant / sales org / purchasing org, we do not want the user to be able to see doc numbers, ship-to's, material numbers etc... My question is where do we restrict F4 results for the Sales and Distribution, Finance, Materials Management, Production Planning, Logistics, etc... modules? Thanks in advance for the help.
Jordan

We can set authorization for specific plants and other organization levels,contact the basis team and discuss about the authorization

How to set Blocking Indicator for product specific TransportationLanes?

Hi All,
I'm facing a problem while trying to set the blocking indicator for product specific Transportation Lanes-external procurement.
How can i proceed on the same?
I've figured out 2 methods for blocking the product specific TLanes.
1. using /SAPAPO/TR_TL_TRANSFER_BAPI.
2. using BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI.
I tried using the BAPI - /SAPAPO/TR_TL_TRANSFER_BAPI, which comes inside the DELETE BAPI - BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_DELMULTI. Although I had passed the parameters reg. external procurement, nothing seemed to be happening in the system. There was no blocking indicator - D(locked and flagged for deletion) set against the subjected TLane. In fact, to my amazement, the BAPI didn't return even a single msg. BAPIRETURN internal table after execution was empty.
Here, I'm passing:
(IV_LOGQS) TYPE /SAPAPO/LOGQS
(IV_LOGSYS) TYPE LOGSYS
(IV_CALLER) TYPE /SAPAPO/MD_CALLER
(IT_TR) TYPE /SAPAPO/TR_TTD_TR
(IT_TR_X) TYPE /SAPAPO/TR_TTX_TR
(IT_TRPROD_SRC) TYPE /SAPAPO/TR_TTD_TRPROD_SRC and
(IT_TRPROD_SRC_X) TYPE /SAPAPO/TR_TTX_TRPROD_SRC
I haven't tried on the second method yet. Is there any other programming alternative for setting the blocking indicator of a TLane / multiple Tlanes?
Could anyone pls explain and guide me on a suitable method to be chosen and the process to be followed, parameters to be passed, etc.

Hi Sanjay,
Use the standard BAPI: BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2 (according to SCM version you are using)
to update the deletion flag for product specific T-lane, in this BAPI you have to pass the data to EXTERNAL_PROCUREMENT parameter table in which LOCKED_FLG field is there in which you can pass the "D" for deletion or block flag.
Also you have to pass the same entries in EXTERNAL_PROCUREMENT_X parameter table of this BAPI.
If any further help required, refer the documentation of BAPI or let me know.
I hope this will help you to solve the issue.
Regards,
Saurabh

Blocking of plant for further postings

Hi
We have got few plants which are inactive for several months. Someof them have got stock which is absolute while in remaining plants there is no stock.
So can I block these plants for further postings??
If yes plz let us know the settings. One of solution we are thinking is to do this with Authirization control. Plz suggest anyother.
Thnx
Neel

Hi,
Remove the factory calendars from the plant.
If this will be removed then there will be no planning and hence no posting for the same.
Reward points if it helps.

Karan
