Configuration of pipeline material

I have following issues.
Presently we are doing implementation for an Electrical distribution company. here we are receiving HV(high voltage ,33 kv) electricity form different grids.Then we are converting these to 11kv & 400 volts(ht LIne)  through transformers and then we are transmitting these to different customers. How would i implement this scenareo in sap.Electricity is mainly a pipeline material.
So what will be our raw material & finish goods here ? Pls suggest.

Hi
There is no raw material or finished material  but only one material that is PIPE line material. You can not store the material. There is no PO also to buy the material.  You are required to maintain Purchasing Info record with price for the material and have to make automatic settlement  using MRKO . This is is the basic process for any PIPE line material.  You have to elaborate more for further help from members.

  • Pipeline Material configuration

    Dear All,
    here the plant is getting water through pipeline.
    so here i need to configure water as a pipeline material??
    so please guide me how i can configure this process in the system.
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    Any thing can flow through a pipe line is called " pipe line material"
    E.g. steam, water, gas, electricity and oil
    For pipeline material,  PR, PO and GR are not required.
    Only material master, info record, goods issue and cosignment settlement(MRKO transaction) are required.
    step:1  Creation of materila master record(mm01)
    material type is PIPE, storage location is not required/appeared
    In the OMS2 transaction, select the pipeline check box/option and deselect the quantity & value updation check box/option.
    Step2: Maintain the purchase infor record(ME11)
    Price, tax code and No ERS are mandatory.
    In vendor master record, select the Auto. Eval.GR settlement(delivery) option in the purchasing data view
    Step:3 Goods issue with movement type 201-P
    Following accounts are updated during GI:
    GBB OFFset inventory account (consumption)
    KON(-) Amount payable (consignment)
    Step:4 Consignment settlement(MRKO)
    Following accounts are update dduring settlement:
    KON(+) Amount payable (consignment)
    Vendor account
    This is the complete information related to Pipe line material procurement.

  • Pipeline Material

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a scenario in which I need expert opinion and process flow of Pipeline Material.
    The scenario is :
    We procured the water from outside and then stored in Tank. The water will be further purified and stored in other tanks. In the process of purification, different charges has been incured i.e. labor hours, machine hours, chemicals etc. That is recorded separately on cost centre as expense.
    The purified water will then be used in production through pipeline. We are not maintaining any inventory of the purified water.
    I have studied that these kind of materials will be handled through Pipeline Materials. The step of using the pipeline material is to create the material master; create info record; maintain price in info record and issue the material.
    What my questions are:
    .) What configurations will be required other than number range and valuation class for pipeline material?
    .) Can we use the pipeline materials in BOM and in Process Order?
    .) How can we issue the material when we issue materials against Process Order?
    .) What will be the proper accounting entries?
    .) If someone provide the detail of Pipeline material?
    Good response will be appreciated.
    Regards

    Dear Imran,
    As per your question, please find my reply as below:
    What configurations will be required other than number range and valuation class for pipeline material?
    1) You have to create material for material type PIPE.
    2) Create Pipeline Info record .
    3) Do the goods issue with mvt 201 P.
    Can we use the pipeline materials in BOM and in Process Order?
    No you can not use  pipeline materials in BOM and in Process Order.
    How can we issue the material when we issue materials against Process Order
    Pipe line materials will be directly issued with mvt 201 P, there is no relation of PO in this.
    What will be the proper accounting entries?
    Accounting entries after GI will be :
    Consumption DR(+)
    Pipeline payables CR(-)
    If someone provide the detail of Pipeline material?
    Hope these information helps you

  • Error in pipeline material creation

    hi,
    we want to create one pipeline material as per our new requirement for showing gas consumption.during material creation with mat type PIPE, it's showing an error:The field Profit Center is defined as a required field; it does not contain
    an entry.
    Procedure
        If the field is the material group or unit of weight, and the field is not ready for input, check whether the material is locked. If it is locked, you cannot extend the Purchasing view or the Sales view. If either of these views needs to be extended, the material must first be unlocked. This can be done only by a user with special authorization.
    thanx,
    sheetal

    Hi
    In your client if Profit center accounting(PCA) is activated ,then you need to maintain the Profit center for the material.
    Option 1: goto OMS2, got details of pipleine material & select the Costing View of the material.
    Now goto MM01 in creation of pipeline material & maintain the profit center in Cotsing 1 View.
    Deactivating the field from mandatory to optional will not serve your purpose as PCA will get affected.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    As you said there is no data in material master for this material. this may be the reason for this. Try loading this material master and perform attribute change run. This should solve the issue.

  • Info Record creation for Pipeline Material

    Hello,
    I am having issued while creating the Info records for a Pipeline Material(water)
    This is the error.
    "Material XXXX not a pipeline material" where as I have created the material as a Pipeline.
    I have Info Record created previously for other plants within same Porg and CC.
    Need the Info record in the Process Order where it does not allow to confirm the Order without the price that comes from Info Record
    Can anyone tell me what is the issue?
    Thanks
    SAP Fans...

    Hi,
    Confirm that the material XXXX is created under material type "PIPE"
    check for the material type in T code OMS2, whether "Pipeline mandatory" is active. And under "Quantity/value updating" option "Quantity updating" and "Value updating" should not be active.
    Hope it helps..

  • MIGO for pipeline material

    Hi,
    I am trying to post MIGO for pipeline material, while at the same time I am facing following problem while executing:
    1. At the time of the Goods Issue of the Pipeline material, the error ocured: Account determination for entry INT GBB _____ VBR not possible.
    So maintained an enntry for the same in the OBYC setting, but received a new error: period 001/2005 is not open for a/c type S & G/l A/c 790000
    Thus tried to solve it by going in FS00, but change authorisation was not available.
    Please help me in coming out of this
    Thanks 
    Ritesh

    Hi,
    Now Use t.code: OB52 and open current period in Account Types  S and specially Account Type “+” which stands for valid for all accounts type and save( also can check A, K, D,M,). Better consult FICO consultant for OB52 step.
    Also Check in T.code: MMRV and see which period is open for ur Co.Codeand back posting is allowed or not.In MMPV close the period last period and automatically system open the new one.

  • Error in PIPELINE MATERIAL

    Hi Gurus- when i posted PIPELINE MATERIAL in MIGO with  MVT 201+P the following error coming: "Account Dtermination for entry INT KON---PIP not possible". how to resolve this problem?

    Hello
    This error is because of not maintaining the g/l accounts for that transaction in Automatic account determination (OBYC).
    goto OBYC
    Select the transaction key KON
    Give your chart of account INT
    Then give the valuation modifier(valuation grouping code) and/or valuation class and general modifier as PIP and maintain g/l account against that entry.

  • Pipeline material costing

    Hello
    While creating Std cost estimate,the cost for pipeline material-which though mentioned in info record and in valn variant also mentioned -Price from info record-but system is picking price from materal master-MAP.But for other standard materials-its following proper valuation startegy.
    Does some addnl setting need to done for pipe line materials
    Thx

    Hi SR
    I had similar issue with pipe line materials. Inspite of maintaining the derivation strategy in Val Variant o pick up from Info Record also if was not picking up for Std cost estimate only.
    For actual consumption it is picking up from Info Record.
    I maintained the same price of the Info Record in the price control in the material master and solved the issue.

  • Quality check for Pipeline Material

    Hi MM Guru's
    Is it possible to do quality check for Pipeline Material?
    If yes what is the process.
    Thank you
    Venu

    you can create a manual inspection lot, analyze a sample and record the results.
    but you cannot have a quality stock and do not do a transfer posting from quality to unrestricted or quality to blocked.
    There a many chemicals that are transported via pipeline and managed as pipleline materials, either supplied by a supplier in the neighborhood or even cross country. And it is needed that you want do quality checks on certain materials before you use them.
    Search the QM forum, you may find some discussions.

  • Default Movement for Pipeline Material (261 P)

    Hi PP Experts,
    I would like to default the movement "261 P" upon entering the goods movement part in COR6N (process order confirmation). Right now, when I enter the transaction, only movement 261 is defaulted. I still have to click the button "Stock Determination" just to get the default vendor and special stock indicator P.
    Is there a quicker way to do it?
    BTW, I already 1) created a pipeline inforecord 2) defined the material in the source list 3) assign a stock determination group for pipeline withdrawal.
    Hope you guys can help. Thanks!
    Regards,
    Marvin

    Dear,
    While create the process order you need to define it as a Pipeline material in through Special stock indicator as 4 in componenet (Material ) screen then it will get default in Confirmation.

  • Pipeline Material Error

    Hi,
    One of the raw material used during production is D M Water which is produced in house. have
    When I am trying to issue the pipeline material to production,
    I am getting error " Pipeline material has no fixed vendor"
    Message No - M7164
    Please suggest what I have to do to resolve the issue.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Pavan

    Hi
    First of all you should understand that the material used in the production of the DM water is produced in house.So it not raw material .
    Example
    DM Water (FG)  is manufactured using Some SFG(Water) and this is using some input  material as water(RM).
    Now Input material RM can be treated as Pipeline and you have to make inforecord  with pipeline and you can issue the material and settle liabilty using MRKO.
    you have to create the production order  for SFG ( water ) and  FG water.
