Component Qty Increases during change in Sales order for CONFIGURABLE MATL

Hi PP Gurus,
          I have setup a configurable material with a bom that has component quantities is computed by entering the characteristic values (length, width, thickness) in the SALES ORDER creation. When the go back to the sales order (VA02), and I change ONE CHARACTERISTIC value, the component quantity changes as expected. However, when I select the header material then click the configuration icon to see the characteristic value and press back after seeing the values, the odd thing is that the component increases by a FACTOR (conversion of cubic inch to Liters, 61.023).
         When I change the setting in the CONFIGURATION PROFILE-> untick "manual change allowed in the sales order, this STOPS the component quantity from increasing.
        I would really appreciate if someone can help me.
Thanks,
Heinrick Palad

Hi Shaik,
Yes, I have maintained an alternate unit of measure. The base unit of my component is LITERS (IN3) while my issuance unit / sales unit (unit in BOM) is CUBIC INCHES (IN3). It is interesting that the conversion from Liters to cubic inches is 61.023. WhY does it multiply by 61.023 everytime I tick on the CONFIGURATION ICON in the SALES ORDER while Im not changing anything in the CHARACTERISTIC values?..
It continues to multiply by 61.023 if i repeat on ticking on the CONFIGURATION ICON and going back to SO header view (until it encounters an error, because of a value of quantity too large).
Thanks,
Heinrick

How we can increase decimal places in Sales Order for Qty

Hi,
In Sales Order qty field now its 3 decimal places for MON unit of measure but we want 4. how we can increase decimal places.
Thanks in advance
Thanks & Regards,
PM

To elaborate better.
Again, use Tcode CUNI - Unit of measurement : Initial Screen.
At initial screen, choose TIME from the list (where by default AAAADL- no dimensions is there).
And click on UNIT OF MEASUREMENT button.
In that you will find MON - Month.
There go for details by selecting MON or select MON and press F5 from Key board.
For MON unit maintain following parameter as per your requirement:
-Number of decimal places for number display
Use - This parameter determines the number of decimal places with which this measurement unit is displayed.
-Base ten exponent for floating-point display
Use - This exponent determines how the values for this measurement unit are formatted as floating point numbers.
Examples - If the exponent is 3, the floating point numbers have the format xxx.xxxxE3.
And deselect commercial meas. unit in application parameters section.
I would suggest instead of changing standard settings of MON, you create ZMON in TIME dimension.
Thanks & Regards

Regd : Error during saving the sales order for Variant configuration

Hi -
When the item( config material) is saved in the sales order , system scheduled the production order and getting an error as " Posting Rule for Assembly order for item 000010 could not be generated".
Any solutions regarding the error.

Hi,
This is the process of Assembly to order with variant configuration. In material master, you can maintain gen item category 0002 (configurable material) in basic data view, sales 2 view item category grp 0002 and strategy group 82 in MRP 3 view. After creating of material master, BOM & Routing, You can create sales order in VA01 transaction.
In this VA01, When you create sales order, system will check material availability, capacity checking and system will show variants for each items. And also when you will save the sales order, system will create production order no immdiately.
So you can maintain the above settings compulsory.
please let me know any clarification.

Material variant replacement in sales order for Configurable Material

HI
I am using variant configuration. In this i have created material A as configurable material and have Preconfigured Material B as its variant by assigning configurable material in MRP 3 view.
Now when i am creating Order for material A i.e. Configurable material and the characteristics values are same as that of Preconfigured material system is not replacing Configurable material with Preconfigured material.
Please help me out.
Regards,
Anand.

Even after maintaining the item category MTAC(Mills Make to order config at mat level), the configurable material is not getting replaced in the sales order (va02). It is just showing material variant exists for the configurable material.
The setting in item category for configuration is.
Config. Strategy 01(Sales Order Strategy (TAC, TAM))
Mat. Variant Action 4 (Replace configurable material (Append and change))
ATP material variant 2 (Do not substitute if not completely available)
Structure scope D (Configuration, poss. with BOM explosion)
I have maintained the stock for material variant as well to take care of ATP material varinat setting shown above.
Please suggest if missing something.

Problem creating a sales order for configurable material in SAP ECC

I have a Variant Configurable material named X.
The structure of this VC material is
Material X has charatcertics CHARCTERISTIC1 and CHARCTERISTIC2.
CHARCTERISTIC1 has values VALUE1
CHARCTERISTIC2 has values VALUE2
I created a sales order manually from VA01 using configurable material and read the values of all configuration tables to be filled from BAPISDORDER_GETDETAILEDLIST. With the help of this data i got an idea how to fill the tables of BAPI BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2. But still i am able to create a sales order but the configuration data that i give is not getting populated in the sales order.
Where am i missing. please some body suggest. I am unable to debug and searched the forums
for this information but dint find solution for my problem. some body please tell me where am i missing?
Any help would be highly appreciated

Creation of Sale Order for configurable material with availability check.

Hi,
We have a scenario in which the material is configurable. The configurable material (X) has few variants (Ex: X1, X2, X3, X4, X5). While booking the sale order, we use the material number (X).
Further, the material planning is done for the variants X1, X2, X3, X4, X5. The standard variants are planned for production in advance.
1.     While booking the sale order, we want the availability check of the stock (type matching to happen). What needs to be done in configuration?
2.     While booking the sale order, there is a possibility that the configuration selected will not match with any of the standard variants due to some additional requirements of the optional features, in such cases how to link the standard variants to the sale order & create requirement for additional requirements.

Umesh

Hi Umesh,
           1.Create material master for configurable material and variants in mm01.
           2.Maintain BOM for the configurable material in CS01
           3. Configur the variant configuration steps
              a. Create charecteristics T.code CT04
              b. Create values and assign classes
              c. assign the values to charecteristics
              d . Maitain dependence T.code CU01
              e.create configuration profile t.code CU41
              f.stimulate the configuration profile.
4. Do the availability check configuration through this path
IMG --> Sales and distribution > Basic functions ,> Availabilty check and Transfer of requirements.
5. Maintain the Availbility check field and MRP views in the material masters other wise you sit with PP people and do that
I hope it will help you

BOM explosion in sales order for configurable materials and variants

Hi,
I have these materials:
A: configurable material (header)
B: variant material (header)
C: configurable material 1 (position)
D: configurable material 2 (position)
E:variant material 1 (position)
F:variant material 2 (position)
I can in the sales order explode in this way the BOM (using SD01 application in the position type of the header material):
1) A --> C+D
2) B --> E+F
while I can't make the explosion in this way: A --> EF and A --> CE
is this possibile? I want to make an explosion of a BOM for a configurable material and having variants material as sons, or having mix sons (one configurable and one variant)
Thank you
Sandra

Hi Sandara,
Just check the BOM in cs03 u have maintained !!! If u have maintain the variant material there in the config mat BOM with object dependencies than u can explode !!!!
Please let me knwo if u any query and also if u elabore more than will help u out

Supress VC in sales order for configurable material

Hi,
this might sound like a weird request but I am looking for a way to prevent variant configuration for a configurable material in a sales order.
For internal process purposes we would like to create an intermediate sales order with a custom document type and custom item categories.
When we create the document we reference 'real' sales orders which contain configurable materials.
When copying those items over to the new custom sales order type, I'd like to prevent the VC for this item in the new order.
The custom item category I set up is not marked as configurable (no configuration strategy/structure scope/etc...)
I tried to do this with custom code in copy control but it still is bringing up the VC screen which I want to prevent.
Appreciate any ideas which could help.
Thanks,
Markus

Hi Markus,
I believe whether the configuration screen should appear or not depends on whether the material is marked configurable or not in the master data. Therefore, it may not be possible to realize your requirement via the item category settings. You probably need to do some debugging to figure out where the configuration screen is called and then add some item category based check there.

How to trigger workflow from changes in Sales Order in CRM?

Hi Experts,
I want to trigger event at the time of saving the changes in sales order (TCODE- CRMD_ORDER).
I have found one BO - BUS2000115 but it is getting triggered only after new creation of sales order.And there is no BO available when we change the sales order.For this reason I have created one customize event in BO(BUS2000115).
Now my question is How should I link this customize event so that it will trigger after saving the changes ?
I have seen SWEC transaction but was not able to find anything to link this customize event.
Please help ....!!!
Good response will be rewarded.
Thanks
Snehasish Das
Edited by: Snehasish Das on Feb 14, 2008 2:31 PM

In SWEC, actually you link the change document object to a Business object and its corresponding event , to which workflow should react to.
If yo udo not find the entry then, yo unedd to create one with finding out the respective chage documnet object.
Hope that helps.

Sales Order Item configuration

Hi,
In my scenario, if there is any change in Sales Order Item configuration (characteristics), i have to create an entry in custom table.
TCode - VA02
How do i check if it is changed or not and in which exit?
Thanks,
Vetri

Hi Vetri,
The tables I told you about are only relevant for old values. For the new values after changing the document and before saving the document will be available in some internal tables and only the technical team will be a competent team to find out how the new values can be found out during run time.
The checks you want to enable can be enabled in the user exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT or USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE based on the scenario.
You can reward if this helps you.

Price change summary report & approach of price change on Sales Orders

Hi,
I have made the setups for updating the price on Sales Order via profile options (i update the list price field on SO line the SO line price gets updated). The Customer have manual price overide in their existing system in place so they want same in oracle system as well. Their price change doesn't have any serious logic,,it is quite erratic based on market condition on that day.
(1) How can I get the report fro the changed price wrt price on price list for all the items on Sales Orders (during a period). It seems, Audit trial functionality for changing list price is not available.
(2) For the system whether required price change as above is better approach or maintaining new price list all the time is preferable option. In case of new price list, do we have any standard report which fetches itemwise price change details on Sales Orders for a period.
Thanks.
With Best Regards,
Nirabh Nayan

Nirabh,
Did you say you update the List Price itself in the Order Lines? In my opinion you should never update List Price. Set the profile OM: Discounting Privilege to 'Unlimited' to allow update of Selling Price, but switch off 'OM: List Price Override Privilege' for the responsibilities so that List Price field is not Editable. So that List Price always reflect the price with which Order Line was created (From the price List). Now create a custom report wherever Unit Selling Price does not match Unit List Price.
If you really want to go a little further then create a modifier with Application method 'New Price' that should kick in everytime the Unit Selling Price is updated. Let me know if that helped.

Report on changes to sales orders

Hi Experts,
I am looking for a way to report on changes to sales orders, specifically the row shipping date and quantity.
I can see that the data is apparently in tables ADOC and ADO1 but am having trouble getting useful results. What I need is a report that, for sales orders only and for a date range, shows all changes to row quantities or row shipping dates. The type of output that would be useful is:
Change date - document # - row# - Item code - old shipping date - new shipping date - old qty - new qty
filtered on change date for sales orders only. This seems beyond my preferred option of XL-Reporter and I'm getting lost in the history tables in creating a query.
Best Regards
Matthew

Hi,
Without doing the query for you, history tables are linked as the "normal" table but with the addition of the LogInstance column. Then the UpdateDate column (from base table ie. ADOC) will tell you when it was changed.
Your query isn't an easy one... SInce you have to link an instance (ie. LogInstance = 1, which will be the original created object) to all the modified ones.

Eric

Fix Date & Qty Field in Schedule Lines Sales Order

Dear Friends,
I want to understand the need and use of the Fix Date & Qty field check in the sales order -> Item -> Schedule Lines.
Can anybody explain me the need of the same.
Regards,
Harsh

If the availability check for an item determines that the item cannot be delivered fully on the requested delivery date, and, as a result one or more schedule lines have to be created for later delivery dates, the customer can decide whether to accept these delivery dates and quantities.
You can record the customer's decision either by setting an indicator in the Fixed date and qty field or by leaving this field blank. The field is displayed both on the schedule line overview screen and on the availability screen.
<b>Customer Accepts the Schedule Line Proposal</b>
If the customer accepts the schedule lines which are proposed by the system, mark the Fixed date and qty field. The system then transfers the requirements for the schedule lines to material requirements planning.
<b>Customer Requires Goods Earlier</b>
If the customer requires the goods earlier than the date that the system can confirm after the availability check, leave the Fixed date and qty field blank. The system then only passes on the requirements for the requested delivery date and does not take the quantities and dates confirmed by the system after the availability check into account. In this case, it is assumed that the requested delivery date can be kept to because, for example, additional production capacity may become free. The system only confirms the sales order once the entire order quantity can be delivered on the requested delivery date. In the subsequent delivery processing, the sales order is only considered to be completed when the entire order quantity has been delivered or when all partial delivery agreements have been fulfilled.
A fixed item is considered to be completed once the entire confirmed quantity (which can be smaller than the originally requested order quantity)has been delivered. Therefore, it does not make sense to fix the confirmed quantity to 0 as the item is considered to be completed from the start.
During rescheduling, the fixed quantities and dates are no longer taken into account.
The same info u can get easily from help.sap.com

Find the user exit while creation and change of sales order

Hi Team
Below mentioned requirement , in which user exit i have to put below logic while creaion and change of sales order?
u2022     The logic for the user exit to explode should consider the following assumptions and validations
o     Customer master to have the entry at KNVV-KVGR1
o     Material master to have the entry at MVKE
o     UoM in the Sales order item (VBAP- VRKME) should be = Pallets PAL or tonnes (TES)
o     Should have more than one line item or number of line items with UoM PAL or tonnes TES should be > 1
for example :-->
Product A with Scales mentioned below
Product A     Quantity / Scale     UoM     Price(£)
     0-10     PAL/TES     20
     11- 20     PAL/TES     10
     21- 30     PAL/TES     5
     31-40     PAL/TES     2.5
     >41     PAL/TES
Product B with Scales mentioned below
Product B     Quantity / Scale     UoM     Price(£)
     0-15     PAL/TES     25
     16-20     PAL/TES     20
     21- 30     PAL/TES     15
     31-40     PAL/TES     10
     > 41     PAL/TES     5
u2022     Product A (qty 10PAL) + Product B (qty 15 pal) ordered in a single order with 2 line items.
u2022     The expected results should be
o     Product A qty 10 + B qty 15 added = 25Pal
o     The system user exit should add the total number of pallets on the order line items and point towards the respective scales, so in this example prices against each line item should be the respective price against 25 Pal = 5£ for product A per pal and £15 for product B.
Thanks in Advance.
