Consignment stock replenishment via idoc

We are setting up a scenario, where we receive oderCreate idocs (CIDX format) into our XI system which should trigger a stock replenishment from the producing plant into the customer consignment stock. As the delivery has to be created with reference to a stock replenishment PO there seems to be no process code which could create this delivery. Is there a way to create stock replenishment deliveries with ref. to a PO via idoc? Many thanks in advance for your answers.

Hi Tom
If you want to maintain a minimum stock level at customers location then on regular basis consignment fillup should take place. So you should be knowing how much stock should be there at consignement place. So when you create a consignment Issue , make the consignement issue delivery dates different dates with some quantities.Then that stock can be filled up at consignee place
Say for example
Consignment Issue --- 100pcs
Consignment Fillup -
1st delivery date 05/01/2009--->50pcs
1st delivery date 10/01/2009--->50pcs
Again on 01/09/2009 you will be doing Consignment Issue for 100pcs. Then again the stock will be reserved
In this way once the consignment issue is done then before that delivery date , you have to create Consignment Issue for some quantity

Sales/Stock data via IDOC for replenishment

How to capture customer sales and stock data through IDOC for customer replishnment.
We want to see stock update in Tcode WVM4 (w10t --> Logistics --> Retailing --> Sales -->
Replenishment --> Overview > Stock / Sales> WVM4).I am not sure the correct way to resolve this issue.
We have the flat file, which need to be uploadin our sap database table, so we can use it in customer specific replinshment.
I have followed below step to achieve this target.
Process followed:- Idoc Inbound
Step1) Created segemt WE31 based on our file data
step2) Creation of Idoc type we30
step3) Created Msg type we81
step4)Assign Message type to idoc type WE80
what other/new step is required to complete this requirement? We don't need any ALE connection, since we have flat file in out local system

Nishant,
This is NOT the way IDOCS are to be used. When you want to communicate between two SAP systems, you recieve a info from a middleware you use IDOCS.
Here if you want you can read the data and call the concerened BAPI, to create the Sales order.

Ravi

How to Handle Returns of Vendor Consigned Stock Issued via Delivery ?

Hi.
I am currently able to issue Vendor Consigned Stock via Delivery. I use Lean Warehouse Management, and I have implemented Stock Determination Rule to take Vendor Consigned Stock and Unrestricted own stock in account during Issue. I am even able to insert the correct Vendor Number during the confirmation of the Transfer Order. When I generate the Goods Issue of the Delivery Order, I get an accounting document that affects both the Account Payable Liability and a Consumption Account.
Now My Question is this :
How do I handle Customer Complaints that lead to a Return of the Goods, back into Vendor Consigned Stock ? The goods that is returned, needs to be taken back into Vendor-Consigned Status, and a appropriate Accounting Document needs to be generated to reverse out the Acct Payable Liability and Consumption Account entries.
Do I use a Returns 'RE' Sales Order to bring back the Stock ? I need to be able to create a Return Delivery that will immediately post the returned Stock back into Vendor Consigned Status. So where and how can I key in the vendor number in the Return delivery, keeping in mind Return Delivery in Standard SAP does not use Warehouse Management ?
regards
Peo

Hi Edmund
I think you can try the following:
1. Define a new schedule line category - here you can define the movement type and the item category (as given in a Purchase Info Record). - Transaction VOV6
2. Define a new sales order type for returns. - Transaction VOV8
3. Define a new item category for the returns document, - you can mention the special stock type here too
4. Carry out the sales order to item category and item category to schedule line category assignments.
I am not sure if the system will prompt you to provide the vendor number or how does it populate the vendor no. while posting the material doc. However you can try this out and check if this solves your issue.

Replenishment of consignment stock in warehouse

Hello gurus
We are working in a retail system and we have some consignment stock that passes through the warehouse. My problem is when we run LP21 to replenish the picking location it creates the TR, but even if its only consingnment stock in the warehouse it does not set the special indicator and the creation of TO fails in LB10, since we are missing the special stock indicator.
I cant see where i can get the system to also cosider the special stock.
Any tips or tricks here?
Regards
Ivar

You should try to use standard stock determination functionality to determine vendor consigment stock in WM - it can be used for deliveries, production orders, you can even use it for ad-hoc WM-stock transfers (LT01, LT10) which re not directly connected to IM movements.
Please chechk OSS note 365570 as well as SAP online help for details:

Control of vendor consignment stock

Hello
We have agreements with some of our suppliers about vendor consignment stock. Problem is that from a financial point of view, we don't fell we are having enough control about the values of the consignment stock.
When the supplier deliver the goods physically on our location, we agree about the prices. Deliveries to other prices can be mixed with each other - in other words; we do not empty the consignment stock before getting new materials from the vendor. When ordering materials for consignment stock it is done via a purchase order, item category K and price 0.
When using the consignment stock material we do it via MVT 411, which creates a posting - value of this posting is the price from an info record. Monthly the consumed materials are settled via MRKO.
Problem is that we would like to know the price of the consignment stock - before it is used in production, even though it is not our goods, but we have committed to pay a specific price.
Best regards
Søren Kirch

Hi
Please note that in ECC 6.0 way back in 2006 SAP had introduced new functionalities for Consignment material for Retail (internal distribution) and for wholesale customer sale (SD sale).
To over come this problem of stock determination for DC to store distribution (Plant to Plant) we need to do customization for stock determination and prioritization of stock (which type of stock should be considered when a particular movement type is called).
The same stock determination group once configured and assigned to movement type should also be maintained in Article master Store or DC view. Article consignment indicator in the Article Store or DC view should also be marked as "1".
Depending on the Source of supply 2 or A the transactions pick up stock types as mentioned in the Stock determination group (As prioritized).
When you create an STO (Stock transfer order) the item category for Consignment is not populated any where but when you do Goods issue in outbound delivery the 411 K indicator will be picked up in the background.
This will allow movement of Vendor consignment stock from one plant to another.
I hope i answered your question.

Consignment stock vs Unrestricted Stock in SAP APO

DC ( has vendor co location) -------> Tier 2 location ( garage)
can consignment stock (ECC) be considered for replenishment at Tier 2 location in SNP APO by Heuristics / optimizer?
to account for replenishment at Garages from the DC locations , can the consignment stock at DC be used ?
does Heuristics / optimizer consider it to propose transfer orders ?

Hi Ashfaq,
You can plan these stocks in APO by integrating it using CIF.
You can activate the transfer of vendor consignment stocks in the integration model by using the Storage Location Stocks indicator in the CIF integration model.
Make sure that the vendor master data must be contained in the same integration model as the stocks.
Cheers

Using Consignment Stock and filling up an unrelated Sales Order

Hi there,
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but I have an issue that I hoped SCN may be able to resolve.
We have a client for whom we hold Stock in our warehouse location. We fill up this stock using SAP Sales Orders (at 0 revenue) to maintain levels to satisfy need.
When the client puts in a stock request, they do so using our front end quoting engine which is integrated with SAP, and effectively drives the client invoice. This sends through picking and shipping requests to our warehouse who immediately action the stock holding to satisfy the request, creating Outbounds against the stocking order(s).
At a later stage the quoting engine creates a Sales Quotation in SAP which is then converted to a Sales Order. In order to reconcile the Order and the shipments, the Stock Order Outbounds are then reversed, and re-issued against this new (unrelated) Sales Order, and then we can move to invoice.
Step by Step, the process broadly looks as follows:
- Order Stock via 'Sales Order (1)'
- Pick and Deliver Stock (Outbounds are created against Stock 'Sales Order (1)')
- Process the client request and create 'Invoice Sales Order (2)'
- Reverse the Outbounds against Stock 'Sales Order (1)' and link these to 'Invoice Sales Order (2)'.
- Process to Invoice.
I am trying to determine if there is a more efficient means of processing this requirement, and whether consignment stock can help us here. From what I have read, I am assuming that for consignment stock a saleable YKE can only be created against an existing YKB. For the model that we are trying to operate, ideally we need a solution where we can Associate the YKB items to YOR, or perhaps achieve the following:
- Order Stock via 'Sales Order (1)'
- Move this Stock into a "Bucket"
- Pick and Delivery this stock out of the "Bucket"
- Transfer the delivery over to the 'Invoice Sales Order (2)' when required.
I'd welcome any suggestions here to helps us optimise the process.
Many thanks,
Alexander.

Hi Alexander ,
Yes ofcourse you can use consignmentment Process
and you can use the concept of special stock partner in the partner profile
Spoecial stock partner (SB) can assign to your ship to party
1stly you can do consignment fill up( with your customer name (ex-2316)
then at the time of creating the consignment issue parter function use 2361 customer

Consignment Stock direct from Vendor to Customer

Hello all,
We're have several wholesale customers that are maintained via the consignment inventory process in SAP. We will now be drop shipping finished goods directly from a vendor to these consignment customer locations bypassing the KB sales order life cycle. Can a Purchase Order to a vendor i.e. type NB be used to order stock for a consignment customer? Ideally I would like to place PO for finished goods and when I receive the ASN from the vendor simply receive the finished goods directly into the consignment customers inventory via the 101W movement type. I have the feeling that this may require some configuration so any input would be helpfull. My focus right now is on the PO for the consignment stock.
Thanks!

Hi Mirja,

Consignment Stock Processing
Purpose
Consignment goods are goods which are stored at the customer location but which are owned by the company. The customer is not obliged to pay for these goods until they remove them from consignment stock. Otherwise, the customer can usually return consignment goods that are not required.
Consignment Fill-Up: Consignment fill-up replenishes the stock at the customer site. Since the goods remain the property of the company, this process is not relevant for pricing and consequently not for invoicing either.
Create a sales order using order type KB.
Enter the required data on the customer, the consignment goods and the delivering plant.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a delivery as the subsequent document for this sales order and, after picking has been completed successfully, post goods issue.
The underlying goods movement type is a stock transfer. This ensures that when goods issue is posted, consignment special stock is created for the customer concerned. If special stock of this kind already exists in the delivering plant for this customer, the goods are posted to this special stock.
Order type: KB (document category C: sales order)
Std. Delivery type: LF
Item category: KBN (not relevant for pricing and billing)
Schedule line category: E1 (relevant for deliveries, uses availability check, 631 (GI consignment: lending) to post the stock into a special consignment category in the delivering plants stock for that particular customer and material)
Copy control rules for the sales doc, item category, and schedule line category.
Use trans MB58 or MMBE to check the stock.
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for taxes, as the stock is still the ownership of the company. In the pricing procedure all condition type except for Taxes should be statistical.
Consignment Issue: The Consignment issue enables the customer to withdraw consignment goods from the special stock that are to be used or sold.
Create a sales order using order type KE.
Enter the required data for the customer, the consignment goods and the plant to which the goods are to be returned.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a delivery as the subsequent document for this sales order and, after picking has been completed successfully, post goods issue.
The goods are then reduced by the relevant quantity in the special stock assigned to the customer. This goods issue also reduces your total stock.
Invoice the delivery which issues the consignment goods.
Order type: KE (document category C: sales order)
Std. Delivery type: LF
Invoice: F2
Item category: KEN (relevant for pricing and deliver related billing, special stock indicator W, should determine cost too)
Schedule line category: C1 (relevant for deliveries, uses availability check, 633 (GI issue: customer consignment)
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for most of the condition type, as it is being invoiced to end customer.
Consignment returns: proceed as follows: Consignment returns enable your customer to return goods to the consignment stock that has already been issued from it.
Create a sales order using sales order type CR.
Enter the required data on the customer and the consignment goods.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a returns delivery for the sales order (the system automatically chooses delivery type LR). The goods issue posting cancels the goods issue posting which was carried out when the consignment goods were issued. This posting records the return of the goods to the plant where goods receipt was carried out.
Create a credit memo for the consignment return you created in Step 1.
Order type: KR (document category H: returns)
Delivery type: LR
Credit for Returns Order type: RE (delivery or order related billing)
Item category: KRN (relevant for pricing and deliver related billing, special stock indicator W
Schedule line category: D0 (relevant for deliveries, no availability check, 634
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for most of the condition type, as it is being returned by the customer & invoicing already done to customer..
Consignment Pick-Up: The company uses consignment pick-up to take back consignment goods that are faulty or excess materials that the customer does not need. This process is not relevant for billing since the goods remain the property of the company.
It may be beneficial to have a mandatory reference such as the consignment fill-up. In addition to it copy control rules can be used to further control it. In the copy control rules indicate the document flow. As the stock is coming back into the warehouse or plant, you can specify a returns shipping point to be automatically determined. No invoice is necessary, as the goods are not changing ownership.
Create a sales order using order type KA.
Enter the required data for the customer, the consignment goods and the plant to which the goods are to be returned.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a returns delivery for the sales order (the system automatically chooses delivery type LR). The transaction is completed by the goods issue posting which initiates a transfer posting from the customer's special stock to your plant stock.
Order type: KA (document category C: sales order)
Delivery type: LR
No invoice
Item category: KAN
Schedule line category: F1 (relevant for deliveries, availability check against the stock on the customers consignment, 632 (Consignment pickup)
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for taxes, as the stock is still the ownership of the company. In the pricing procedure all condition type except for Taxes should be statistical, as the stock is being returned from consignment site to plant.

Validation rule cost element via Idoc

Hi all,
i am sitting on the following Problem:
we are creating master data via an external tool, called MDM. It is an Access based tool as far as i know.
These data's are send via Idoc into our SAP R/3 system. It works fine.
The only issue we have:
If you create cost elements, you have normally a validation with gives you a warning that e.g. this cost element already exist. Via our Idoc its just overwriting this already existing cost elements, also the history, all data's are nearly lost.
Do we have to customize special validation rules? Is it because of Idoc? why is the existing validation not be activated via Idoc?
I hope i have written down enough information, so that somebody can help me. Thanks
Michael

Hi Christian,
I have set a breakpoint in validation rule. The step from Financial Accounting is processed.
Prerequisite
BKPF-BUKRS = 'FAI' AND BKPF-BLART = 'WA' AND
BKPF-AWTYP = 'MKPF' AND BSEG-HKONT IN TESTE_CL
Check
BSEG-AUFNR IN TESTE_OP
The validation rule check only the first item from accounting document. So, all postings on account 1103010008 are blocked.
Itm   PK   Account           Account short text              Order            Amount
1   99   1103010008     STOCKS OF AUXILIARY                            63,15-
2   81   5102040001     Maintenance and Repa        101541          63,15
I need to check the second item from accouting document.
Do you have any suggestion to solve my problem?
Thanks.

Consignment Stock Transfer

Hi,
I need to move stock from one customer (consignment) stock to another customer (consignment) location within the same plant. Can you please explain how to do this?
Thanks

Hi,
I have researched for this requirement, before. Not successful. There is no possibility of transferring customer consignment stock to another customer consignment stock in standard SAP. If this is possible, solution is ready on hand.
Option:1
Transfer customer consignment stock to own first and then do the transfer to second customer consignment stock. This can be tried in user exit. Such movement type can be assigned to the special "Schedule Line Category" that can be used by changing manually in the consignment fillup order for the second customer.
All this is worth looking at, if at all both the customers are in the same premises. Otherwise, a paper document is required to accompany the delivery. It is possible via consignment fillup order (SD). So, if you wish to move consignment stock from one customer to another, without consignment fillup order, it is not possible. If at all you want to pick from first customer's consignment stock to PGI to second customer order, you would need to create such a movement type which can do this sort of posting. I have researched a lot on this but didn't see any possibility.
Not sure, if it helps!

Consignment Stock movements in ORT_C37

Hi Experts,
I am working on BW IS-Retail implementation. In my project for stock information, we are using 0RT_C37 infocube. But I am not getting the consignment stock material movements in my report. Please let me know how to get the consignment material movements in 0rt_c37 infocube.
Any enhancements required for 2lif_03_bf infosource. I saw the consignements stock movements in 0IC_C03 cube. But I am using 0rt_c37 cube for retail values.
Please help me out from this issue.
Regards,
Chandra

Hi
There are two option for u
First option is...you can update the same cube with another infosource and updat rule to feed the data into the cube and get the consignment stock detail
this should not affect the data consistency or granularity of the cube....
Second option is..as already said create a multiprovider or infoset depending on the report...if u feel joins wil be useful go for infoset query or union condition is sufficing ur report requirement go for multiprovider....
this should not affect the reporting performance as joins are done during runtime and may take some time to fetch

Consignment stock in MC.9 report

Hi All.
In MC.9 report, consignment stock is consider under valuated stock or non valuated stock.
I run MC.9 report in two different system. In one system consignment stock is under valuated stock while in other it is not considered as valuated stock. Which system is correct.
If consignment stock is valuated stock then why it is not considered as valuated stock in other system.
Please help.
Thanks in advance
Regards
chetan

Hello,
The stock of MC.9 reflects the complete stock at plant level. It includes also the sock of material which one is send to vendor.(Subcontracting) You can also cross check through MMBE in which stock prov. to vendor is different.
While MB5B had three radio buttons for stock type.
1 - Storage loc/Batch stock - which not include the materials provided to vendor.
2 - Valuated stock - - Total valuated stock as per your selection crieteria.
3 - Special stock -- all the special stock such as subcontracting/pipeline/consignment.
If you click on Valuated radio button and execute it, you will get same stock under head Closing stock and the value will same as the value in MC.9
--Just click Valuated stock radio button.
