Completed sales order changed with the updated ship-to address

Hi,
My client did the following test and found that:
- Change the ship-to address of a customer
- new sales order of this customer defauted to the update ship-to address (good!)
- old/completed sales orders of this customer show the new ship-to address (bad!)
Data used in occurred transactions should not be affected by data maintenances that made after the transactions. So, is the finding a design flaw in OM or there is parameter that can be tuned?
Thanks in advance for any input!

Hi,
Oracle will not store the entire Address in Sales Order tables. It will only store the internal id.
Now there could be two possible scenarios for which your client tried to chance the ship to address:
1) There is a correction required in the address(e.g. change in street name). If this is the case then changing the address would be correct approach, and I think all the sales orders(old or new) should reflect correct address.
2) If there is a relocation, then the correct approach would be to make the current customer site inactive and create a new site for the new address instead of changing the existing site. Changing the address of existing site for such a business scenario may not be a correct approach.
So based on what was the reason for changing the ship to address, I would say the system is functioning as expected.
Hope this helps.

Extending sales order change BAPI and updating custom fields

Hi
i added 3 new fields into VA01/02/03 screen.i added at the header level in the additional data tab B area and appended them in VBAK table.
i want to change these values using sales order change BAPI.i added the fields in the structure VBAKKOZ,VBAKKOZX,BAPE_VBAK,BAPE_VBAKX.
may i know what else i need to do?should i move them anywhere with in the code or does the bapi take those values automatically using EXTENSIONIN structure?
also can some one send me code to actually check if bapi is changing my values?
if poss tell me how should i populate values into BAPI.

After adding field in structures VBAKKOZ,VBAKKOZX,BAPE_VBAK,BAPE_VBAKX, create pair of name-value pair extensiot structure and value.
Fill values as follows :
Data :   ls_parex TYPE bapiparex,
            lt_parex TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapiparex.
ls_parex-structure = 'BAPE_VBAK'.
ls_parex-valuepart1+0(10) = Sales order no
ls_parex-valuepart1+10(XX) = somevalue. <---- Value for custom field no 1
ls_parex-valuepart1+XX(XX) = somevalue. <---- Value for custom field no 2
APPEND ls_parex TO lt_parex .
clear ls_parex.
ls_parex-structure = 'BAPE_VBAKX'.
ls_parex-valuepart1+0(10) = Sales order no
ls_parex-valuepart1+10(1) = 'X'. <--- checkbox mark for custom field no 1
ls_parex-valuepart1+11(1) = 'X'. <--- checkbox mark for custom field no 2
APPEND ls_parex TO lt_parex.
Same pair for VBAKKOZ & VBAKKOZX

System Preferences menu have not change with the update

I just updated from 10.6.6 to 10.8.4 tonight and the first thing I noticed is the reversed scrolling (which is a horrid idea in my opinion for a laptop). I went to youtube and watched several videos showing me how to to my system preferences -> Track Pad -> Scrolling and Zooming tab -> Unselect natural Scrolling.
However, when I go to my system preferences -> Track Pad I only have one tab and it is the exact same as my 10.6.6 system preference menu and not the new one that everyone shows on the youtube videos.
How can I fix my system preferences to be updated and how can I go back to normal scrolling? Old habits are hard to die after 5-6 years on my laptop doing it the normal way...

Nevermind. I found a check box that is labeled "When using gestures to scroll or navigate, move content in the direction of finger movement." The box was found above the tracking speed and double click speed.
I am still curious on why I do not have the three tab options that everyone has.

Sales order report with order attachments

Hi All
I am writing a program for a 2 part report that gives a list of sales orders with attachment flags and a list of invoices that do not have the output processed due to the presence of attachment flag.
Firstly i need help regarding few queries in the process of writing this program.
1. How can i distinguish between a sales order with attachement and one without an attachment.
2. What is the related field for attachment in sales header/sales item table(s) or any other sales related table which will contain information of the attachment in the sales order.
3. If I have an attachment in sales order, will it have an effect in the output being processed for the invoice for that order.
Thanks in Advance

Hello Erik,
is there a sales order report with the complete line-item pricing
breakdown. For example, In VA05 I'm only able to get the Net
Price and Net Value as an output. I would also like to view the
breakdown of the conditions (e.g. disounts, tax, etc.)
Is there another report in SAP that will show this? Or a backend
table I can pull this information from to create a query?
The best way to handle your requirement is to create a Custom report using the standard table for Sales Order i.e. VBAK and you can pick up the Document Condition Number. You can pass this number to table KONV and pull up all the values for the active contion type which was responsible for Sales Order price calculation. Please reach out to a ABAPer to develop this sort of a custom report.
Just FYI, if you want to check out all the value for a specific condition type, then you can use the standard report i.e. V/LD.
Please update your post after carrying out this exercise.

How Variant Configuraton data from Sales Order stored in the database

Hi,
I understand that the "variant configuration" data (chosen values for each characteristics assigned to material) from a sales order is stored separately with reference of an object in SAP.
Please let me know how SAP stores such data -source in the database tables.
This is required to draw a report of these charateristics values for various sales orders (Transactional data).
I also understand that there are function modules to retrieve this data, but the function modules are unable to retrieve data as accurately as the VA03 program.
Thank you for your advice.
Regards,
Hemant

Hi ,
I do not know what a reference charactersitcs is,but there are all independant characeristics in terms of their values.
A guess it is because the VC data is changed after the sales order is created, the updated VC data is displayed properly only in VA02 or VA03 but other function modules fail to display the updated VC data.
I understand there is a relationship of instance -between sales order object and VC data object-which we need to update and then see the latest data.
Please let me know if anyone has debgged VA03 to know how the standard SAP program retrieves VC data in a sales order.
Thank you,
Hemant

How to create a Contract with reference to a Sales-Order(VA01) with a BAPI

Hi,
my name is Wadim and i need help.
My problem:
I am creating a sales-order(VA01) with the BAPI 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2'.
After that i have to create a contract(VA41) with reference to this order. I found the BAPI "BAPI_CONTRACT_CREATEFROMDATA" and it has the same interfaceparameters like the salesorder-bapi. but there are no parameters to get a connection to the sales-order.
Is it even possible to get a connection to a sales-order with a bapi???
thanks for help
regards mark
Edited by: Krapp Wadim on May 20, 2010 9:19 PM

Hi Wadim,
I have a similar requirement to create order lines in an existing contract with reference using BAPI_CUSTOMERCONTRACT_CHANGE. The order lines get created in the contract. However, the condition types from the order line which i'm referencing are not getting referenced and are not getting added in the Contract's line after referencing.
Did you come across any such issue ? If yes , could you suggest the solution ?

Sales Order freezes trying to Update Unit Price

When trying to update the Unit Price on an exisiting Sales Order after pressing the Update button SAP freezes and you have have to crash out of it. It doesn't update the Sales Order at all.

Has anyone comes across this situation before?

Billing Block removal not updated in the sales order change log

Hi Gurus,
A specific Billing Block is automatically assigned to the sales document header (VBAK-FAKSK) when the net value of the sales order is negative. This is an order related billing.
Sometimes the Billing block is getting released automatically and the Negative Invoice is getting created in the Background job run for creating the invoices. When we check the sales order, the Billing block is not existing and the removal of the billing block is not recorded in the Change Log of the sales order.In the CDHDR table also there are no details about the release of the billing block.
This is happening only occassionally. When I tried to replicate the issue, the system is not allowing me to create the invoice as long as the billing block is there in the sales order and if I remove the block, it is recorded in the sales order change log.
My doubt is.,
1. How the billing block is getting released automatically?
2. Even if the block is released, why it is not recorded in the Change Log of the sales order?
Looking forward your for suggestions and solutions.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi
Did u check in sales doc. details screen.There u can block for billing.

Sale Order change BAPI - Storage loc not updated

Hi Everybody,
Iam using "BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE", to change the sale order items.
First iam calling above bapi with switch B, for new pricing & then second time for material change.
When i change any material number, it is getting updated correctly.
But the storage location, even though iam passing in the bapi it is not updated, & is blank - updation flag is also passed.
When i execute sale order change again it is updated - ie, for any material change for first bapi call, storage loc is not updated - for 2nd bapi call storage loc is updation - for same input in both the cases.
Is there any way to update the storage loc is first call of sales order change bapi.
Below is the parameters iam passing in bapi :
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE'
    EXPORTING
      SALESDOCUMENT      = LS_SALESDOCUMENT
      ORDER_HEADER_IN    = LT_HEADER_IN
      ORDER_HEADER_INX   = LT_HEADER_X
    TABLES
      RETURN                            = LT_RETURN
      ORDER_ITEM_IN               = LT_ITEMS
      ORDER_ITEM_INX             = LT_ITEM_X

Change of Sold to Party in Sales order created with Reference to Contract

Dear Gurus
I want to change the sold to party in Sales Order created with reference to contract.
When I create a Sales order with reference to contract the system copies all the partner functions- Sold to, Ship to, Bill to and Payer alongwith other data.
However Sold to is marked as "Grey" and not changable, rest of the partners can be changed.
There is no subsiquent document created with reference to this Sales Order.
Please advice.
Thanks a lot.
Regards
Raghu

Hi ,
Please follow the below mentioned step.
1) Create a partner function letts say Authorized SP .
2) Assign all the possible authorised SP (customer) in the contract.
3) When you create sales order with reff to Contract. Put the customer for whom you wish to create a sales order in release partner tab.
Hop this will resolve our problem

Sales order change allows shipping point | plant combination - not possible

A sales order was created and all lines defaulted to the correct shipping point for the plants.
Subsequently, one line's shipping point was changed to a shipping point not possible for the plant, i.e, no assignment exists for the shipping point and plant. There were no checks to validate the change. Thus, the sales order was saved with the bad shipping point for the plant (non-WM).
The delivery was created with two lines for plant (WM) and one line for plant (non-WM).
The solution was to manually delete the non-WM plant line from the delivery and. Next, correct the plant (non-WM) to the WM managed plant and create a new delivery.
Why did SAP allow the order to save with bad shipping point - plant combination.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
lotjjon

Why did SAP allow the order to save with bad shipping point - plant combination
Definitely, standard SAP won't allow you to change the shipping point unless, it is assigned in OVL2 as already pointed out. Check whether this issue is there for all plants / shippint points or only in that document, this issue has happened.

Need no document flow update for sales order create with reference

Dear All.
We would like to have the ability to create a sales order with reference to another sales order, and have the document flow of the sales order not updated.
Unlike the case of a standard create with reference where the documents are linked, in this case there is no relationship between the documents. The first document is just acting like a template for the remaining documents, to save time during order entry.
We have turned off update of document flow at the line item level.
But I don't see a way for us to turn this off at the header (document level). So wondering if there's another way to turn this off, or possibly through user-exit or VOFM requirement?
Has anyone else done this?
I think that CRM has this functionality, but we're still entering orders through ERP-SD.
Many Thanks!

Hello Colleague;
The issue you have reported is SAP standard. The checkbox "Update Document Flow" (V_TVCPAAP-UPFLU) controls document flow at item level. If this checkbox is set to blank, there will be no document flow at item level.
However, the document flow cannot be completely turned off - if the 'update document flow' indicator is blank, you will still see an entry in the document flow, but there will be no update to table VBFA (Sales Document Flow) and the document flow of the predecessor will not be updated at item level (no record in VBFA at item level).
The reason is that the system checks VBAP (Sales Document: Item Data) for fields VGBEL (Document number of the reference document) and VGPOS (Item number of the reference item) for values. You will always have document flow information on header and item level in the successor because it stores this information in table VBAP.
Related with this issue, you can find a Note 53383 for your review.
I hope it can clarify the case.
Regards
Ruy Castro
