Control Key for External processing

Hi
I have a work center for external process and a control key created for external as well. In setting up the control key I choose "automatic goods receipt" and "confirmation required".
Then I have 2 semi parts A and B. Same routings are created for them with the work center and control key mentioned above.
When I create production orders for A and B, I can get a purchase requisition for external process and convert it to a PO. Further when I make a goods receipt to the PO, the production orders are marked with status "CNF". What's surprising me is only for part A the goods receipt of production order is done automatically when the PO is done with goods receipt. No "DLV" for the B production order.
I compare the material master of A and B - can't see any difference...
Please give me some suggestion on where I should look into. Thanks a lot in advance.

At least I can see the difference now.
The scenario is still a production order with an external processing operation (PO to supplier).
When I use movement type 101 to GR the PO, the production order gets CNF and DLV
When I use movement type 103+105 to GR the PO, the production order gets nothing and the external processing operation just gets EODL.
For QC process, we choose to use 103 to GR the PO first and 105 is made when quality check is finished. Is there any solution for this issue?

  • Control key for external process operation & internal.

    Hello,
    We have created one control key (ZP01) T code OP67.
    In the customisation (OP67) for "External processing" selection field we select "X" i.e. "Internal processed operation / Extarnal processing possible.
    If this field is blank then it is a "Internal operation"
    If this field is "+" Then it is external operation, in this case system creates the purchase requisition after release the production order.
    We want to know,
    If this field is with "X", then what is the proceedure to create the purchase requisition for external operation.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards

    Hello Brahmankar,
    Thanks for your prompt detail reply.
    As per your suggestion already we have that setting for another controll key (PP02)
    It is std for SAP it is working fine, in this control key the setting is "+" for external proceesing in OP67.
    Now my requirement is instead of "+" I made it "X" i.e. Internal processed operation / External processing possible. In this case system is not generating purchase requisition after production order release.
    I want to know for external processing whether I have to create purchase requisition manualy?
    or any other process we have to follow?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Nilesh..

  • Automatically Assign Control Key for External Assignment

    Hi All,
    Please can someone advise how I automatically assign the External Processing Control Key at the operation level using the Work Centre.
    I have a Main Work Centre set up which is linked to every Functional Location. This Work Centre has a default Control Key PM01 - Plant Maintenance - Internal,  assigned.
    I also have a second Work Centre which has Control Key PM02 PLant Maintenance - External, assigned.
    When I create a Work Order the system uses the Control Key assigned to the main work centre and assigns this at the operation level.
    When I change the Work Centre for Operation 010, to the second Work Centre (PM02 Control Key) it doesn't pull this through to the operation. I have to change this manually.
    Could someone explain why this is the case and how I resolve the problem.
    Any help appreciated.
    Regards
    Chris

    Teshin,
    Thanks for the information. I have checked the OSS Note the issue is as discribed in the note.
    I will look to implement the program corrections shortly and will confirm that the problem is resolved.
    Many thanks for the feedback

  • Control key for sub-operation

    Hi, what is the control key used for sub-operations for which we do not want seperate confirmation. when main operation confirms, the sub-operation should get confirm automatically. please advise.

    hi,
    You can use PP03 or *PP05 * or any other which dont have tick for confirmation required.
    only thing is that , other details also you need to check for.
    Depending on your requirements, a sub-operation can contain the following data:
    A control key, which specifies
    Whether costs are determined for the sub-operation
    Whether the sub-operation is processed internally or externally by a vendor.
    Whether, afterwards in order processing, a confirmation can or must be made
    A wage type for settling incentive wages
    Standard values, which are planned values for the activities to be performed in a sub-operation.
    External processing data, which form the basis for externally processing sub-operations
    User-defined fields with any customer-defined data
    Check and revert back
    regards

  • Vendor Bank Details - Bank control Key for Spain

    Greetings,
    Can anyone tell me how to maintain the bank control key for Spain in the vendor master data? I can see that Spain uses the key to check the combination of bank number and bank account number, and it looks like the validation points to table BNKAIN. However, where do I get the two digit bank control key (from the vendor?), and how do I maintain it in the table (this table is buffered)?
    Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated, and I will gladly assign points for helpful responses.
    Thanks!

    Hi Eric,
    Thank you for your quick response. My problem is not location of the field itself, but rather on what data to use to populate the field. There is no input help for this field, and the system issues an error message every time I try to populate the field. We ran a trace and discovered that the system appears to be running a check against table BNKAIN. I think perhaps I need to maintain that table, but cannot figure out how to access the table to maintain the entries. Do you know how to maintain this table, or is there a specific bank control key that should be used for Spain?

  • Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement

    if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need  also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
    if we want want to maintaine
    pls tell me how it is
    pls expalin
    faisal

    if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
    I am not clear about your question. But I guess you want to know about control key function. You activate "proc. asctive" box in QM view of material master, that is always at plant level. When you activate this, system automatically asks for a control key & cert type, thats mandatory field.

  • Substitute variables for external process activity in process flows

    Has anyone used with success substitute variables such as ${Working.Rootpath} for external process activity?
    I can't get it working. Variables aren't substituted and my scripts fail.
    Sample value for parameter_list parameter for external process I use is:
    |${Working.Rootpath}|
    and in the script I get:
    ${Working.Rootpath}
    which is of course not what I expected.

    In documentation is Working.Rootpath so there is a bug in documentation. It is ugly because it's hard to guess.
    Thank's for your reply Michael. I checked all that you described. Previously I had Working location set to "Use default location". When I changed it to actual location substitute variables started to work properly.
    If I correctly understand "Use default location" means: use location associated with process module. And for execution it works but for substitute variables doesn't. So I think it is a bug.
    Next thing is variables in the script itself. From examples sent by Mark (script: cd ${Working.RootPath}...) they should be set in environment and accessible to shell. This doesn't work for me but it is not described in documentation and can be easily achieved by passing parameters. So that's not a problem.
    One more question: Should I open tars and file bugs describing what we found?

  • Component for external processing

    hello!
    i would like to have special stock indicator '2' for a component that is used for external processing. when i enter 2, it is removed automatically - all components for external processing (and subcontracting) are always plant stock.
    any ideas?
    best regards,
    matthias

    Dear,
    Go to MRP-4 View---> Individual /Coll. Indicator --->
    Change it from 1 Individual Requirements to 2 Collective requirements.
    Is best the solution.
    One suggestion is to remove the indicator "1" manually in CO02-Component overview and then issue material to that production order set it as 2.
    Hope clear to you.

  • Allow 'control' key for custom shortcuts!

    seems like a 'beyond no-brainer'... let user's use the control key for custom shortcuts.

    Well, the Keyboard Shortcuts panel doesn’t show the warning triangle as shown for other conflicts. Shouldn't the panel reject such key combinations if they're not available? Instead it shows them as being OK. I would have thought it reasonable to use such key combinations in non-EMACS applications anyway. Also, why is it that other utilities make it possible to use them? Most odd. I'll just have to use other methods I suppose!

  • QM control key for procurment

    Sir
    If i activated qm control key for procurment only for release
    what actually the release concept means
    in this sense i want to mantain Q info record for this material?
    If i didn't maintain q info record for this material what will be the effect?
    Faisal

    First thing If you maintain "Release " then Quality Infor record  becomes mandetory.
    Concept is in Quality Info Record there is Release/valid  date & Quantity.
    This date  must be future date to that of PO creation date.if its prior date means this Vendor-material combination is not valied on current date.This is what influence is.
    Now if you do not maintain valid Q info record then system will through error.

  • Gate pass for external processing

    Hi,
    please guide me for this ,
    damaged equipments are sent out side the company for a repairing ,and store people issue gate pass for the same while handing over to vendor,
    i understand that this processing can be done using control key,
    but how the gate pass in the system will be created ,is ther any provision for that in PM area,
    Thanks in Advance
    Vishal

    Sending the equipment to vendor for repair you can use the following process
    1.     Create out going equipment as UNBW material type
    2.     Generate service PR (Control key PM03)
    3.     Generate service PO
    4.     Create stock in MB1C transaction with movement type 561
    5.     Transfer to vendor in MB1B with movement type 341
    6.     Receive from vendor with movement type 342 in MB1B
    7.     Transfer to you storage location with movement type 311
    8.     Create service entry sheet
    For gate pass, I hope you need to develop custom report.
    Thanks

  • Bank Control Key for Spain

    Does anybody know how the Bank Control Key works for Spain.
    The help on the field LFBK-BKONT is not that helpful.

    Hi,
    This is a key for checking the combination of bank number and bank account number. Permitted length, characters and other country information for Spain are :
    The bank key has eight digits (4 positions stand for the bank number + 4 positions for the branch), is numerical, and without gaps.
    The bank account number has 10 digits, is numerical, and without gaps.
    The control key has 2 digits and is numerical.
    The bank key, the bank account number and the control key are checked simultaneously.
    If an error message is displayed when entering bank data, you should check whether data has been entered correctly. Here's a sample.
    Country           Bank key         Bank account       Control key
    Spain              00120345            0000067890            03
    Hope this helps. I had copied this from a note long back and can look for the actual note if required.
    Cheers !

  • Determine Confirmation Control Key for UB STO

    Hi,
    For NB PO's, the confirmation control key (CCK) can be determined by the vendor.
    How can I determine the CCK for a UB STO when I am using a supplying plant instead vendor?

    Hi,
    Normally the confirmation control key will be defaulted from the config maintained at sprommpurchasing--confirmations for NB or UB.

  • Conformation Control Key for Service PO

    Hi All,
    I like to know that for Service PO, do we have any usage of Conformation Control keys. One I understand is the information purpose like the services will be provided from this date to this date. ANy other thing we can control from this key like service entry sheet.
    Best Regards
    Lovkesh

    Hi Lovkesh,
    I have been checking this issue in my system and it has allowed me to create a service purchase order with confirmation control, but it indeed works different than for normal purchase orders (=with material master).
    In the case of services, I have been able to create and accept a service entry sheet without entering the relevant confirmation from the vendor.
    In the case of materials this is not possible, and, in order to be able to enter and post a goods receipt, you need to enter the vendor confirmation if the purchase order item is subject to confirmation. Otherwise, the error message "Purchase order & has no items" is sent.
    I do believe that this functionality has not been developed thinking in services, but I have not located any note or document which can confirm this.
    I hope this helps!
    Esther.

  • Production Variance Analysis for External Process Cost

    Dear all,
    We are on 4.7 R3.
    In production order we have routing/operation with mutliple external processes. The problem is production order cost analysis (CO03) displayed the external process cost variance in lump sum (it adds multiple external processes cost into a single line).
    We need to be able to analysis the external process cost variance by each process. We want to generate a report that displayed the external process cost variance for each processes, however in table COSPA there is no information of the external process name, it also displayed the cost in a lump sum amount.
    How to enable the external process cost variance by each process? What table capture the external process cost with the information of the external process name/ID?
    Thank you very much in advance for your kind assistance.
    Rgd,
    Dahlia Tan

    Hi
    Use KKO0 reports..
    Assign Cost Comp Structure in OKN0 and choose Prod Group = Material Group in OKN0
    Transport these settings across to all clients...
    Run KKRV to collect data and then run KKO0 reports
