Capture Characteristics with Material and Sales Order

Dear All ,
I have to capture the charecteristics alongwith the material, these characteristics also flow in the sales order, basically a class has been defined which holds a number of characteristics and this class is assigned to the material and I guess this is done using the variant configurator,
1) How will be able to capture the same and display
   those ?
2) Does this characteristics flow in the standard
   extractors of the material and sales order or any
   other cube which can multicubed with those ?
Plz do suggest me the an viable option.
Thanks & Warm Regards,
Fayak.

Hi Anil,
Thanks for your reply, I have checked up the material attributes it does not flow there and I was referrring to one note where you can enhance your datasource using CTBW to capture this characteritsics so I did enhance 0MATERIAL_ATTR, the other attributes are listed as an TEXT DataSource and If I check them using RSA3 data gets populated accordingly but the enhanced datasource 0MATERIAL_ATTR which become 1CL_MAT001 does not return any records shows zero records, I am looking for charcterictics which have been mapped using an Variant Configurator and as far as the note suggests it has to be done thru CTBW to capture this, I have done that but success still eludes me,
Experts Plz help on this as I am on pressure to complete this.
Thanks,
Fayak.

Hi Seig,
You can generate this datasources using TCODE CTBW, You can refer to this note (306046), which xplains the same, I have done that to an extent but data is not flowing in my main DS and I need to understand the mapping of the same in InfoSource structure.

Problem in changing characteristics of material while sales order creation

Hello,
My requirement is to change the characteristics of the material in a sales order before the sales order is saved.
I tried using 'BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE' but it aint working. In the debugging mode it is found that the program is searching for entries in KSSK table which are not found. The object key passed to the BAPI is a combination of sales order number and the item number and the object table is VBPS.
Is there any other way by which I can change the characteristics before the sales order is saved?
Thanks in advance,
Anurag

Changing MRP profile of a material and sales order

Hello,
user has changed the MRP profile of some materials but now the sales order of the material has incosistency in Procurement Tab : indeed the procurement type is KSL and not in phase with the new MRP profile ( the procurement type must be KSV ).
I can not change the procurement type in VA32 cause it is greyed ?
Is there a solution to solve this inconsistency ?
Thanks a lot.
Best regards,

Hello,
Thanks for answer.
But, I could not create a new line because of EDI special programs which need to have only one line.

Difference between cost center for material and sale order

Hi,
I'm having an issue related to profit center. Our business of Reverse Logistics Process is taking the wrong profit center which should be taken from sale order master data, not from material master data as currently. As a developer, I'm confused the definition of profit center in this case. What are the differences between the profit center defined in sale order and in material ?
Thanks,
Paulb

Hi Paul
SAP allows you to change the PC in the sales order... If you dont change, it adopts the PC from Mat Master
You can define substitution of PC for sales order in 0KEM and assign them in 0KEL... You can change the PC based on Sales Org, Dist Channel, Division, etc
For a more complex logic, you can also use an exit

Want to procure material with reference to WBS and sales order

Dear all
If i have assigned account assignment in PO means then while GR my material value is going to consumption. I dont want to book consumption at GR level i want to do consumption at delivery level. Also i want to procure material for particular WBS and Sales order.
How to process the same. Kindly give some idea.

Hi
If you wanna toprocure the material wrt to WBS element or sales order the you have to make use of the Account assignment category P- projects ( That can be WBS elements /network ) And sales order C or any specific account assignment category created by you.
Example :
Sceneraio- When you are creating a slea order in SAP by T.code VA01 then at time of saving the SO the system is creation the WBS automatically ( that has to be mapped in SAP) .The Sales order number and the WBS element are same .When you are cretating PO for the Material wrt to this WBS element then the system at time of the GR will be posting the consumption account which is booked to WBS element that in turn against the particular sales order.
In SPRO - customizing i for the account assingment category P in the Consumption Value is V
Which is posted to consumption at time GR. Please try create new account assignment category
Consumption Value is E i.e accounting by sales order .

Material Ledger Functionality with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock

We are in the process of setting up Make To Order (MTO) with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock. We currently use the Material Ledger in our other businesses that use Process Orders.
Does the Material Ledger functionality support MTO with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock? I have been testing this and have not yet figured out how to get ML postings. We are using production orders that settle to sales orders. We do not bring this into inventory, the costs reside on the sales order.
If this functionality does exist, I would assume I need to configure the Material Update Structure but I cannot find any documentation on this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Greg

Hi Greg,
no, material ledger will not be able to calculate and allocate actual costs for the sales order in the scenario you describe. It would of course, if you used the valuated sales order stock.
Generally SAP sees in the valuated sales order stocks (avaliable since 3,1 or something) a great improvement and no real reason to use still the non-valuated scenario.

How to know the excess stock with in a sales order and line item

Hi,
i am running an MRP against a sales order and sales order line item. the materials are getting planned based on the requirement. but due to some reasons the production orders are confirmed with out consumption of the actual required quantity of the components. so the stock is kept ideal in the sales order though it is not required further.
do to some othere reasons also the excess stock of componenets exist. the PR or POs may also exist for the materials though they are not required further.
i am in need of a report for the excess stock or excess PR or Purchase order for a sales order.
please give me logic to find the excess things in that sales order and sales order line item. the Expensional message 26 is there in stock requirement list . but it does not give the excess quantity existing.
regards
madan

hi rajesh,
thanks for your reply. please tell me the logic to see when only partial quantity of sale sorder are delivered and also when no delivery is made also.

Delivery date and sales order creation date

Dear all
Can you please explain the relation between delivery date and sales order date. In my case i can create delivery with delivery date as before the sales order date... how it is possible that i can create delivery before the sales order date.??
Please explain.........
Warm Regards
Inder Pal

Hi,
Sales order date: Date on which the customer officially places an order to your company.
All the commitment and product allocation counting starts with reference to this date.
e.g. customer says that the goods are required from 20 days of placing order, then from this date the calculation starts.
Delivery date: Date on which after the system goes through material availability date, replenishment time, calculates the date on which physically the goods can be delivered to the customer.
e.g. customer orders 100 qty of material X in 15 days, you will hve to check this delivery date through availability check which can be done in sales order and also delivery.
payment date is based on this delivery date.

Siddharth.

Link Between SAP SD, MM & FI
The link between SD and MM :-
1. When you create sales order in SD, all the details of the items are copied from Material master of MM.
2. MRP and availibility check related data is also taken from MM although you control this data in SD also.
3. While you create inbound/outbound delivery with reference to a sales order,the shipping point determination takes place with the help of the loading group, plant data, shipping conditions etc. This also refers to Material Master.
4. The material which you are entering in a sales order must be extended to the sales area of your sales order/customer otherwise you cannot transact with this material.
There are many such links between SD and MM.
Now the link between SD and FI :-
1. Whenever you create a delivery with reference to a sales order, goods movement takes place in the bacgground. eg. In case of standard sales order, you create an outbound goods delivery to the customer.
Here movement 601 takes place. This movement is configured in MM. Also, this movement hits some G/L account in FI. Every such movement of good s hits some G/L account.
2. The accounts posting in FI is done with reference to the billing documents (invoice, debit note, credit note etc) created in SD. Thus this is a link between SD and FI
3. Tax determination: In case of a tax determination also, there is a direct link between SD and MM

Creation of production order with reference to sales order

dear all guru's,
i m having a requirement of creating production order with ref to sales order but without changing my old strategy of make to stock.
regards
ujwal

Hi,
For the purpose of creation of production order with reference to sales order while maintaing MTS strategy you need to maintain Make to stock strategy 40 in strategy group in MRP-3 View of Material Master.
This is the only Make-to-Stock Strategy which enables you create Production Order against both Sales order as well as Demand / PIR.
So if your strategy group is already 40 then you need not change it.
However if you are using any other Make-to - Stock strategy like 10, 11 etc. then it is not possible to create Production Order against Sales Order since they dont consider Sales Order in planning.So you need to change them and set strategy group as 40.
Hope this helps.
Revert if you have any doubt.

Tejas

External Procurement with a Valuated Sales Order Stock

Hi Experts,
I read the following in SAP Help,
For external procurement with a Valuated Sales Order Stock, system generates a purchase requisition from the sales order.
If you are using a valuated sales order stock, the externally procured material is assigned to inventory at the time of the goods receipt. If the sales order item is flagged as carrying costs and revenues, then when the goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place, the sales order item is debited with the costs of the externally procured material.
My question is - it says costs of external procurement is debited to sales order item when " goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place"
- but in my case, when I made the GR for purchase order (created automatically by sales order), system directly posted the procurement cost as actual costs to the sales order item. There is no delivery for sales order done still.
So actually, when should the external procurement cost be debited to sales order item -- when GR for purchase order is done (or) when goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place?
Thanks,
GAN

Hi Rafi,
Thanks for your reply. I understand the problem now.
Material which comes from prod order is posted statistically (value type 11) to sales order when GR for prod order is done.
Here, the issue is about a GR for purchase order (assigned to sales order). This material purchased is not used in any production process. Its a material which is supplied to customer along with main material produced in house.
In purchase order, I have given the consumption account (which is cost element 1). Entry was Consumption Dr and GR/IR Cr. So, this posted as actual cost to sales order.
I should have given inventory account in purchase order (with cost element 90).
Its a mistake of using consumption account in purchase order.
Thanks.
GAN.

Dear KK,
Pls check whether ZKIN, ZKQT, ZKOR have all the properties similar to IN, QT, OR respectively. If they are different, please ensure that you know the reason why they are different. This check has to be done at tcode VOV8
Some fields like sales document category, Transaction group, screen seq group, Doc pricing procedure need to be similar to the parent document unless you know why you have changed them.
Once this check is done, check the copy controls in VTAA. Before that try creating these documents separately without reference. This shoudl work fine only after which you need to check copy control. If this is not working fine, then there is some problem with the document type settings in VOV8. Testing this is possible only if Reference mandatory field is left empty. Make sure that is properly configured.
Once this is done, check copy controls in VTAA. You can just copy the copycontrol between IN and QT and QT and OR and create for ZKIN to ZKQT and ZKQT to ZKOR.
Once this is done, check whether your item category settings are properly done , also the schedule line settings. The tcodes are VOV7, VOV6, VOV4, VOV5 etc.
Now check whether your material master and customer master are consistent with the item category settings(Item category group).
Now create the transaction. It shoudl work fine.
Reward if this helps.
