Closing a production order in the previous financial period.

Hello All,
I am hoping somebody can help me with a Production order question. We have recently upgraded to SBO 2005a SP18, I know, just catching up
we have an issue when closing Production Orders at the end of the financial period. Assume that the period end is on the Sunday (end of period 2), The production from the Friday does not get booked into the system until the Monday morning (next period, period 3).
We can adjust the date of the production receipts and bookings on the Monday morning to show as a posting date of the Friday (period 2) but when we close the production order the there seems to be no way of closing it in the previous period (period 2), the transactions get posted in the current period.
We have played with the changing the periods but our testing so far has been without success.
Many thanks,
Mike

Suda,
Using standard SAP when we create a standard Prod order, say for 100 units. The status is defaulted to planned. we then change the status to released. once released we have an addon that we use to book production.
The addon uses the production receipt and issue as well as other stock positngs all against the production order. At any point in time we can see how many units have been completed and what componenents have been issued against an order.
once the order is complete we change the staus manually from released to closed. this process then generated a whole bag of journal entries. It is these journal entries I need in the previous period if I am in to the new period.
Our SAP parteners say that the only way to do this with the addon is to reverse all of the journals created when closing the Prod order and re-create them in previous period but this would be a significant cost to us.
Thanks,
Mike

Production Order in the Past

Hello everyone!
Good day! Im new in PP module. I am creating a production order where the production target is last week (Sep 20, 2009) but the system does not allow production orders in the past. Instead, the scheduling finish date is automatically saving on Sep 25, 2009 (i am using a Backwards scheduling). Is there any configuration guide in which i can allow certain number of days for the production order in the past? Thank you.

hi,
You can changes the settings in OPU3 and also you can do it in CO03.
If you want to restrict the user for backward scheduling except for some cases then you can do this in CO03 other wise it is better to do it in OPU3 transaction. Both cases you need to enter max days for back dated scheduling.
For doing it is CO03 follow the pat from order header data screen.
Menu...
Order>>settings->scheduling parameters.
Hope this can help.

Two production orders at the header level one for one single requirement

Hi Gurus, Please provide me your valuable suggestion on the issue.
*Client wants to have a only two production orders at the header level one for one single requirement .*
1) Manufacturing Order u2013 In this order for Finsihed prodcut system should pick all the assemblies whcih are manufactured inside i.e depending on the material type.\
2) Assembly order u2013 In this order system should pick all the assemblies whicih need to be assembled also procured or subcontracted items in this order against depending on the material type.
It means for Sales order of 5 EA there is going to be only 2 order ( MFG & assy order).
For Example.
L45-7000 is the header material now client wants only two production orders one Manufacture order and anothe Assmebly order , thet dont want to use Phantom assembly concept and also multiple production orders for SFG.
Please confirm if this requirement can be mapped in SAP ?
Thanks...

Hi Shishir,
As soon as each order is related to only one material, if your manufactured (or purchased) assemblies are of different materials, you will have a separate order for each material rather than a single order for all manufactured assemblies. I don't thing all your assemblies are of the same material - thus I would say no, it is not possible to map your requirement.

Hi Sarvan,
We are using the version ECC6.0. I want the authorisation of "revoke close" for some of the users only. Is it possible? If yes, what exactly is the authorisation object.I did not find any object as SAP-Security.
Is it possible to control it by any user exit.
Kindly let me know ASAP.

Costing the production order for the configured material

We are trying to cost the production order for a configurable item. But the system is not calculating any cost in the production order. Sales order related to this configurable material is costed. What additional setting I need to cost the production order for the configured material ?

Hi Niki
If your SO is costed, thats enough from a System's perspective... Planned cost will be the sales order cost estimate because SO saves the Chars required for the Configurable material
Planned cost in Prod order depends on the Costing variant you have assigned in the order type... Check the error log if there is any error in cost calculation in prod order

Can not delete a Production Order is the Sales order item is rejected?

Hello everyone,
I can not delete the production order as the Sales order line item is rejected.
Does anybody know if any configuration change is required or any work around?
Thank you,
BG

Hi,
Could you pl. explain how the production order is created?
Also did you try by choosing Function in the menu (CO02 transaction) & try to set deletion flag or Technically complete?
If so did you get any error message ?

Re-open the Previous posting period

hi...
we have closed the posting period for the month of 01-02(april-may) and open the 03-04(june-july)...
but now we want to open the previous posting period i.e. 01-02(april-may) again...so how could we do this..
one solution i have got is that...
1. go to OX18 delete all the assignment for that company code and plant.
2. go to OMSY and change the posting period..
3. go to OX18 and reassign the plant and company code again...
this is the right method to do that..?
will there be any -ive implications if I open the previous period by this procedure..?
or suggest me some other way to do that...
Thanks in advance

Hi
You can open Closed MM periods but be careful because SAP does recommend opening closed MM periods.
Steps are :
1) Tcode MMPI --from Tool Bar select - System - User Profile - Own Data - In parameter Tab Enter "MMPI_READ_NOTE" in parameter Field.
Try to remove assignment of plants from company code.
Now Go to -
T-Code OMSY & Set the required Period.
Re-assign Plants to Company Code & Check whether correct preriod is open thru T-Code - MMRV
Now use T-code - OMWD to Assign Valuation grouping code to Valuation area because the earlier data gets deleted when assignment of Plants was removed.
Use the transaction code OMS2 then select FERT (or any other Material Type used by your company)
Then click on the quantity and value update.
Select your plant or valuation area and put Tick Marks in Value update and Quantity update
Even check this link...Reopening the posting period that was closed
This will definitely reslove your problem.
Thanking you.

Error -10 while closing a Production Order with DI API

Hi,
I've been trying to close some production orders using this code:
Dim oProdOrder As SAPbobsCOM.ProductionOrders
        Try
            oProdOrder = Me.Company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oProductionOrders)
            If oProdOrder.GetByKey(intDocEntry) Then
                oProdOrder.ProductionOrderStatus = SAPbobsCOM.BoProductionOrderStatusEnum.boposClosed
                If oProdOrder.Update <> 0 Then
                    Me.Company.GetLastError(intError, sErrMsg)
                    If (0 <> intError) Then
                        sErrorMsg = sErrorMsg & "Production Order Close Error: " & CStr(intError) & "," & sErrMsg & _
                            ". DocEntry: " & oProdOrder.ProductionOrderOriginEntry & vbCrLf
                    End If
                End If
            End If
...But I keep getting the same error every time I try: -10,Date out of reference date range, '_SYS00000005340'
The error doesn't show when I close the Order with BO's Form. And I've checked the exchange rate for the posting and due date of the document (and also for my current date) and there seems to be no problem with it.
I'm currently working with SAP BO 2004A PL 45.
Anybody has a suggestion? a workaround?
I'll appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks in advance...
Alfredo

Alfredo,
just in case,
what is the previous state of the production order (planned, released,...)?
before you try to close the order, update the status to released:
If oProdOrder.GetByKey(newID) Then
'Cambio di stato dell'ordine da 'Planned' a 'Released'
                oProdOrder.ProductionOrderStatus = boposReleased
oProdOrder.Update
I found this code in a DI API application written for 2004A. It was commented out so I suspect it didn't work.
'Chiusura dell 'ordine
        'SelProductionOrder.ProductionOrderStatus = boposClosed
        'ret = SelProductionOrder.Update
        'If ret <> 0 Then
        '    sboCompany.GetLastError nErr, errMsg
        '    MsgBox "Errore " & nErr & " - " & errMsg
        'End If
Hope this helps

Error in Closing of Production Order

Dear Gurus,
I am getting following error whil closing Production order
"Unprocessed Future change Recs for order ### prevent deletion flag /completion "
Can anybudy explain me what is this ?
Ishwar

Hi,
Please check the following
Prerequisites for Setting the Deletion Flag
The following prerequisites must be fulfilled before a deletion flag can be set:
Are there any more (manually added) purchase requisitions or purchase orders assigned to this order?
If so, these must be deleted first.
Is there a balance for this order?
The deletion flag can only be activated if the order has already been settled or if no actual costs have been accrued in the order. This means that the actual costs for the order must be equal to zero.
Are there any commitments for this order?
If so, these must be deleted first.
Are there any inspection lots in this order?
If so, each lot must have the Completion of all inspections is set and the Usage decision made status.
Are there any goods movements with errors for this order?
If so, these must be processed first.

How to track material consumption before closing of Production Order

Hi all,
My customer needs to track online material consumption in Profit & Loss statment.
Now when we take trials, we found that if we do not close a production order then Change in stock a GL under Expenditure drawer is not updated, and also the cost of good sold is only updated when we post sales delivery transaction.
Now the issue is that my customer wants to track online material consumption, meaning once material is issued for a production order then it should appear in P & L under expenditure.
We are using default valuation method as Standard for the Finished Good Item group, due to which WIP Inventory variance GL (we are using Change in Stock under Expenditure drawer of COA) gets updated on closing of work order. Second GL Cost of Goods Sold gets update on posting Sales Delivery.The difference of these two GL shows correct Material consumption, but for this we need to post Production Order close and Sales Delivery transactions.
I wish to know that
1.Is it possible to track online material consumption in SAP B1 ?
(Here online meaning if we post only material issue transaction, and we do not have posted production order close and sales delivery transactions )
2.If yes, how to achive it?
Best regards,
Samir Gandhi

Is your BOM's set to backflush? Yes
Have you specified seperate WIP accounts for each item group? Yes
Answer to your both question is Yes.

Period end closing for production orders

Dear all,
what is period end closing???
Pl. enlist all period end activities for product costing by order scenario.
what inventory adjustments are necessory.
what FI entries required to post??

With respect to PP- Period end closing is the procedure to close all the production orders and see that cost is flowing from production order to material
During period end - we TECO all the orders and see that production is complete from PP angle. Then costing will calculate over head/variance and settle the difference to production material or price difference a/c depending on the production material price control.
Just see below the example of a production and costing entries. Thi8s may be helpful to understand the concept.
Planned price
Planned Material cost = 115.15USD
Planned Activity cost = 6 USD
Planned Over head = 25% of material cost+ 250% of activity cost = 28.79+15=43.79
Total cost = 164.94
Product cost as per S price = 1 USD (example)
After GR and confirmation
Actual Material cost = 7456.55 USD
Actual Activity cost = 2USD
Total cost = 7458.55
Actual O/H = 0
Production variance = 7293.61 USD
After o/h calculation
Actual Material cost = 7456.55 USD
Actual Activity cost = 2USD
Actual O/H = 25% of material cost+ 250% of activity cost = 1869.138
Total cost = 9327.69
Production variance = 9162.75
After settlement
Actual Material cost = 7456.55 USD
Actual Activity cost = 2USD
Actual O/H = 25% of material cost+ 250% of activity cost = 1869.138
Total cost = 9327.69
Production variance = 0
Variance will be settled to Price difference a/c.
When we do the GR the FI a/c will hit as below
Production order expense a/c -
stock a/c +
When we GI the following a/c will hit
Raw material a/c -
Production order expense a/c +
When we settle
Production order expense a/c + or -ve
variance a/c = + or -ve
I hope this will help you.

Production order in the additoanl tab b in sales order

Hello gurus,
I have to create a new field on sales order item(additional tab b) where the production order would be filled via a batch job.
Then i have to create a z-program to populate the new field added (this would run everyday).
selection screen would have sales order(optional)
sales org (required, multiple values possible)
plant (required, multiple values possible)
date (required field representing the date from which update is to be seen)
logic:
for a particular date find all the sales order changed after that date.
read for all these whether there is a production order linked to it.
(this can be done by reading all production oreders enterd/chnged after that date.
for every sales order look for the value of variant characterstics b_sales_order & b_sales_order_item using method get_prod_order_multiple)
look for sales order item with the value of this characterstic and populate the new additional field with production order.
please advice how to proceed.
