Consignment settlement (MRKO) with reference to PI vendor partner

Hi,
To day our consignment settlement documents are being created with reference to the VN partner. How can we drive the consignment settlement to be created with reference to the PI vendor partner?
Thanks and regards, Jose Oyon.

Jose,
There is no SAP standard way to do this. You would need to customize the solution to make this happen. There is an OSS note explaining why this is not standard functionality. Sorry I don't have the OSS number but it should be an easy search.

Linking Consignment Settlement (MRKO) with Value Contract

Hi Guys,
We are trying to set up Consignment stock functionality in our company. We have successfully configured and tested it but there is only one problem, we want to link this consignment functionality with and Outline agreement (Value Contract to be exact), so that every time we do a settlement using MRKO, the invoice value is deducted from the total value of the contract. My first question is
1 - Can we link consignment settlement (MRKO) and Value Contract in such a way that each time we run consignment settlement using MRKO , the open/ remaining value of the Value Contract is decreased by the invoice amount. If YES, then how can we do it (Please mention the steps if possible)
2- If NO, then what is the way to achieve above task, is their workaround for it ??

Normally we do not get into consignment arrangements with supplier with value limites or qty limites. It defeats the purpose of consignment, where idea is to reduce inventory carrying cost and yet have full availability of stock.
Also, you will provide a dedicated space in your premises to your Supplier and hence to limit him with total value of your consumption is difficult to achieve. Even if you make some enhancement in system to achieve it, on shop floor how can you control it, if you have inventory open for use? If you have negotiated with consignment vendor based on value, I am sure Vendor will not replenish any inventory once he thinks that overall value limit is breached and hence suddenly one day, without any indicators to you, you will run out of those components which you do not have in your inventory, nor in your consignment inventory.
You can implement any exit, which may stop you post the transaction in system, but I believe if you are entering into such contracts with your supplier, you may need to have some sort of notification once you are close approaching the overall limit, to either re-negotiate the contract or to have those components ordered for your inventory directly to ensure availability of stock.

Consignment Settlement(MRKO) Problem

Hi,
For consignment stocks, after GR from PO, we'll either do a mvt:211K to cost ctr or mvt:411K to inventory. Now this will create a settlement entry in MRKO based on the existing PIR(purchase info record) unit price.
After 6 months, vendor sends the invoice for the above PO but with a different unit price billed. In this case how can we settle the consigment items(based on the orginial 211K and 411K PIR price) in MRKO as the price does not tie back to the vendor invoice price. Any possibilties to do the consignment settlement based on the vendor invoice latest unit price?
Thanks,
Teo

Teo,
To be clear the vendor should not be sending an invoice for goods on consignment.   However I understand that this is done as we are facing the same delima.
The only way to settle using the price on the invoice the vendor sent, is to reverse your goods issues, change the price and do the goods issue again.   Not a good process and in most cases not a supportable work process.
Our current process is to settle the consignment, reverse the invoice and post an FI invoice to match the invoice the supplier sent.   We are considering changing that process to settle the consignment then post a subsequent debit/credit.
Good luck.   I hope someone else has a better answer for you. I have posted a similar question to this forum and did not receive any helpful responses.

Sandra

Create business partner with reference of another business partner

Hi all,
I want to create a business partner with reference of another BP in CRM 2007 from Web UI, please advise whether it is possible or not, if not ...why it is not possible?
Looking forward for your reply!
Regards,
Silpa.

Hi Silpa,
In the standard, this isn't possible with the BP. However, you can create a customer as a reference of another existing customer, and then sync this new customer into a new BP. So you can do this indirectly,.
If you want to create a BP directy as a reference of another BP - sorry, this isn't possible. You would need to copy the BP into another BP using a custom report. You can develop your report along these lines :
1. The easiest way is to use APIs. Start by calling BUPA_CENTRAL_GET_DETAIL usign the BP number. THis will give you all the central data for the BP - e.g. name, etc. Now, merely feed the output of this module into the module BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA. This will create a new BP with the same data of the old BP.
2. Now that the main BP is ready, you need to start copying the individual datasets - addresses, bank details, roles, Id, industry,etc. This is tricky - the ADD apis - BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD, BUPA_ROLE_ADD, etc can only create one record in a call. So, you need to first get the data of the reference BP using the GET_DETAIL api e.g. : BUPA_ADDRESS_GET_DETAIL, then loop at each returned record, and pass that into the corresponding ADD BAPI.
3. Be sure to call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT at the end to commit the data to the DB.
I hope this helps you.
Cheers,
Rishu.

Populate header text with reference number and vendor name

Hi Experts,
My client wants to populate the line item text field - SGTXT in MIRO / FB60 with the reference number field XBLNR and the vendor name.
Is it possible to do it before the invoice get posted?. Like, just after the user entered the vendor account number and the reference number in FB60 system picks the vendor name against the vendor number from LFA1 table and the reference number entered in FB60 screen and populates them in text field ?
Similarly in MIRO - before the invoice get posted is it possible to pick the reference number from MIRO screen and pick the vendor name based on the PO number entered on the MIRO screen.
Please advise how to do this.
Thank you
Shino

Hi
This can be achieved by using a User Exit in Substitution rule. This is done through GGB1. Define the rule
Prerequisite
(System T Code =FB01 or MIRO) and Account Type = K

MRKO Consignment settlement against a PI partner

Hi
I have a problem with the vendor the MRKO settles against. The scenario is that I want to settle the against a PI maintained in the vendor master (in the partner function) which is different to the VN that the MRKO run settles against because this is the vendor the info record is created for and the PO was created against.
Please help
Shashi

Check the OSS note 451370
The consignment settlement does not take partner function 'Invoice presented by' possibly stored in the vendor master into account but instead always creates the consignment invoice with reference to the vendor of the consignment goods.This vendor must be created in the relevant company code and purchasing organization.
Other terms
RMVKON00
Reason and Prerequisites
For the following reasons, the consignment settlement is unable to take partner role 'Invoicing party presented by' stored in the vendor master into account and can only create the invoice for the goods supplier:
1. Normally, the consignment liability account is managed as a current account.The posting period and the vendor number are usually the sort and assignment criterion of the items on the account.Only by using this sort/assignment criteria can you determine from an FI point of view which consignment liabilities are created in a certain posting period for a certain vendor, and to what extent these were cleared by an invoice.
2. The inventory management of the consignment stock is always executed for the goods supplier and the goods movements are always executed with reference to this vendor accordingly.The resulting posting of the consignment liability is therefore executed with the number of this vendor as part of the sort/assignment criterion.
3. If the settlement of the consignment withdrawals does not then work with this vendor but instead works with the invoicing party assigned to this vendor, this would cause the posting on the consignment liability account to contain the vendor number of the invoicing party as a sort and assignment criterion, as the document only contains this vendor. Therefore, the postings could no longer be cleared and the documents could no longer be archived.It would also no longer be possible to execute evaluations via the consignment liability account for the determination of open items.
For the above reasons, in consignment processing, you can only work with the goods supplier which must be created in the corresponding company code and the corresponding purchasing organization.

Consignment Settlement By MRKO

Hi Friends,
I know the consignment process from Consignment Info Record to MIGO. But when I am about to settle the consignment by using the T.code MRKO, I am not succeeding. Although when I am executing MRKO, i am getting the list of Consignment Stock. Further how to settle it, I don't know.
Plz help me out.
Thanks & Regards
Saeed Arif

Hi
For doing consignment settlement we have to use MRKO. What are the necessary steps to be followed while dealing with this T.Code MRKO?
For doing consignment settlement.
you should have consignment PO ( item category K) with tax code
Info recore is must with consignment
when u received the good through movement type 101K no accounting do will generate. since it is not valuated materila ( it owns by the vendor)
Transfer the consignment materila to own (movemetn type 411K ) or Goods issue to consumption( movement type 201K) ... now accounting document will generate.
settele the the account through MRKO transcation.
If you find error that messeage determination not set.... go the SPRP setting ..logistic Invoce verification > Messeage determination >>> maintain condition >>> create condition.... create for KONS
Hope this will useful

How you are getting ZERO and Negative Vale for consignment?
Consignment settlement will happens after withdrawal of goods or after Sales based on your Consignment Purchase Info record.

MRKO - Consignment settlement cleaning up

Hi all,
Currently we have the consignment settlement under MRKO back to year 2003.
The root cause for this is the list of material document was not posted as the purchasing info record was not maintained back on year 2003 and upon good issue, the movement is not valuated with no material document as it will not have the purchase price from the purchasing info record. Thus it will show only 0(zero) value on MRKO list whereby it is not able to settle.
So are there any way that we can settle this consignment as it is back to year 2003, i'm not looking into the option of reversed the good movement from year 2003 to currently fiscal year 2010.
Hope you can provide some better alternative.
Thank you.
Kah Fei

hi chakrapani,
If i would like to reverse the good movement and perform the MRKO based on the current period. From the financial side, did you see any huge impact. For what i can think will be all the consignment only will be incurs now with the financial document posting as the previous posting back on year 2003 has not been capture as it doesnt have any price maintain.
Hope to hear from you.

HI,
You can goto tcode MRM1, specify the condition type = "KONS" for consignment and Company code = 1000
Remember not to specify the partner in the condition record.
Then proceed to MRKO to do your consignment settlement
One more setting, select the SETTLE and remove DISPLAY under the procesing option tab and execute the transaction..

Consignment settlement and a vendor paper invoice

All,
Is anyone aware of a SAP solution that allows a supplier to send an invoice for consignment materials?
If there is no known SAP standard solution, has anyone developed a customized process that would integrate the two?
Regards,
Sandra

You do not expect an invoice from the vendor for goods withdrawals from consignment stocks or a pipeline. Instead you settle posted withdrawals and return deliveries yourself and send the vendor a statement of the settlement. You can perform this settlement periodically in the background. The following documents can be involved:
Invoices
Credit memos
Consignment settlement is connected to message determination. As a result, you can define a form in Customizing. A message record is created during each settlement. This message record completes the form. Depending on the system settings, you can send this form to the vendor immediately on posting or at a later time.
If you want to change document header data for consignment settlements, use the Business Add-In MRM_MRKO_HDAT_MODIFY. For more information, see the documentation for the Business Add-In.
Canceling Consignment Documents
Cancel the documents in Inventory Management and start consignment settlement. The system generates a credit memo for the returned document. If the consignment prices have changed since the original goods receipt, post the credit memo in Financial Accounting. Clear the invoice and the credit memo in Financial Accounting.
Constraints
Consignment and pipeline settlement is not connected to the purchasing information system, because the purchase order history is not updated during consignment settlements.
You cannot make any net postings during consignment settlement. This means that you cannot calculate any cash discounts. To take cash discounts into account, you must include these in the consignment price. This ensures that the cash discount is implicitly posted during the goods withdrawal and settlement.
You cannot settle delivery costs.
To process consignment and pipeline withdrawals, choose Logistics Invoice Verification ® Automatic Settlement ® Consignment and Pipeline Settlement.
The selection screen Settle Consignment/Pipeline Withdrawals appears.
Narrow down the selection by:
Company code
Vendor
Plant
Material
Document date
Posting date
Material document
In the Selection frame, select the withdrawals that you want to take into account during processing.
Only consignment materials
Only pipeline materials
Consignment and pipeline materials
In the Processing frame, you can select whether you want to process withdrawals or return deliveries:

Vendor Master Create with reference

Hello
We have a sizable number of vendors that need to be created in a 45 new company codes. These vendors already exist in other company codes.
What is the easiest way - to create these vendors in these new company codes with reference to one of the existing company code? Is it LSMW or is there any other easier way?
Thanks,
TZ

Hello,
LSMW is the best tool to upload your mass master data.
There are different way that you can upload the master / transaction data.
As a functional consultant, recording would be the most viable option.
I found a document on web:
www.scmexpertonline.com/downloads/SCM_LSMW_StepsOnWeb.doc
In recording you have to complete the following steps:
Maintain Object Attributes
Maintain Source Structures
Maintain Source Fields
Maintain Structure Relations
Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules
Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines
Specify Files
Assign Files
Read Data
Display Read Data
Convert Data
Display Converted Data
Create Batch Input Session
Run Batch Input Session (Takes you to SM35)
Please let me know if you need any further help.
