Converting Additional mat type to Trading Goods.

Hello Everyone,
I am converting material type from Additionals to Trading goods through MMAM tcode and i am following error.
The material type cannot be changed.
The reasons for this are:
The old and new material types have different material type IDs.
ID of new material type:
No material type ID
ID of old material type:
Additionals
So how to fix this issue.
Regards
Ilyas

Hi Ilyas,
Change of Material Type can be done only if it doesn't have different quantity/value updating, resulting in
different account determination.
The reasons for this are:
1. Stocks may be already existing in one or more plants.
2. No open items is left for tht materials.
Once everything is clear, may be system does allow in changing this material type.
Regards,
Suresh

Using FERT as trading good....

Hi,
Plz tell me is it possible to use material of FERT type as trading good i.e. for sales.
The scenario is a material (FERT)is produced in house and after it become finished good it transfer to different plants and than consider as trading product for sales. MRP 2 view is maintained as X, Price Ctrl=S, sales view also maintained. The problem is in price valuation, what will be the logic for material valuation. Is this a good practice to maintain sales view of FERT type and use same mat. for sales and distribution or we should create another material with HAWA type.
If 2nd option is valid, than it means if company has 100 finished matrl. than there must be 100 HAWA trading goods.
I want to use FERT for the in house stock transfer as well as for Sales purpose, how...
regards,
Man

See normally trading goods means we will procure and sell, in this case how you can have the standard price. Depends upon the market this rates will be changed frequently. If you have standard price any price hike is there it will go and hit in the price difference GL.
thats the reason i told you go for split valuation. For trading goods you will have separte val class and GL and price indicator will be V. so whenever any price changes is there it will get inventorized.
For finished goods you will have standard price. for this you can have a Price indicatore S.
Normally this is based on the client it will varry.If the client is dont want to create too many materials you can go for this one. Otherwise you can go for trading goods material type.

Requirement types & requirement class for trading goods.

Dear all,
I am working on a project in which there are only trading goods. Majority of the items are make to order & few are make to stock.
For the make to order scenario, what will be the requirements type & requirements class to be used for the trading goods. Which item category is to be used......will it be TAN or different......
For the make to stock scenario, what will be the requirements type & requirements class to be used for the trading goods. Which item category is to be used......TAN cannot be used here as it will be used in the MTO scenario so diffferent controls.
What control parameters should I take care of while defining the requirements class & requirement type.
With best regards,
Niyaz Sayyed.

Hi,
    As my understanding, You should copy a new requirement class and make the following parameters and its values.
   For Requirements,
      req.transfer is X
      Allocation ind. is 1
      Prod.allocation is X
     No MRP is blank
For assembly
                assembly type is 2,
                 order costing is X,
                 Special stock is E,
                 order type is ZXXX
You can refer to the sap standard MTO strategy 20 to complete your project. This is the most important parts defining the requirements for sales and distribution module.

3rd Party Sale- Mat Typ

Why it is necessary to've HAWA as a Mat Typ for 3rd party sales? What if we use FERT or any other Mat Typ?
Rgds.

HI R S,
HAWA (trading goods)
Trading goods are always procured externally and then sold. A material master record of this material type can contain purchasing data and sales data.
The material type you choose determines:
--->Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose, for example, as a configurable material or process material.
>Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally.
>The number range from which the material number is taken.
>Which screens appear and in what sequence.
>Which departmental data you may enter.
>What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured in-house or procured externally, or both.
>Together with the plant, the material type determines the material's inventory management requirement; that is:
>Whether changes in quantity are updated in the material master record.
>Whether changes in value are also updated in the stock accounts in financial accounting
In addition, the accounts affected by a material entering or leaving the warehouse depend on the material type.
Thanks,
Swamy H P

CIN-Pricing Procedure for Trading Goods

Hi Gurus
Need yr expertise... Currently we have trading goods process which do not require any excise duties but VAT or CST is required.. Could you pls advise what will be the best pricing procedure to be used as the proposed pricing procedure by SAP (JFACT or JDEPOT) cannot be used as it will propose excise invoice?
If we do not maintain any excise duties in J1ID, system will not prpose any excise duties if we were to use either of the suggested pricing procedure but we will hit a warning message that excise duties are missing in J1ID..
How can we avoid this and what will be the best pricing procedure which do not require excise duties but sales tax is required?
Rgds..Vinz

Hi Vinz,
you can make your won pricing proced.
e.g. ZMKTPRICE
here you can use your regular condition type what you have defined.
e.g PR00-Sale Price
K007-Discount
MWST= 4% or 12.5 (PR00-K007).
I think this will help you.

COPA : Cost of sales for trading goods

Dear friends
We activated cost based accounting and made setting in "Define Access to Standard Cost Estimates" to transafer standard cost of material to copa. We have to transfer Variable and fixed part of the standard cost to COPA, to two diffrenct Value fields
And it is woking fine
But when we sell, any purchased goods (having price control V) system asking for standard cost of the purchased goods. Then we are running Standard cost run for that material and we are able to sell the goods.
Please speciy the above procedure is correct, any other procedure is available.
The problem I am facing is suppor today I run standrd cost run for a trading goods and sold the same, today for that material MAP and standard cost is same.
After some time the MAP of that same material is changed and if we sell the that goods, old standard cost of that material will go to copa
How to solve this probelm.
Regards
Bala

For the purchased products, you may perhaps use the condition type VPRS to bring in the material price from the material master.

Additional Mapping types

Hi mates,
I've maintained the additonal mapping types required in the exchg profile param...com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.additionaltypes with the value R3_ABAP|Abap-class;R3_XSLT|XSL (ABAP Engine).
But, I'm not able to see the above mapping types in the drop-down list in Intf Mapping in IR.
The desc in exhange profile reads like this.......
<i>Technically, the Integration Server calls the ABAP function CALL_PARTNER_MAPPING with the additional mapping type name as destination. Therefore, the additional mapping type name must be registered as RFC-Destination in the Integration Server, too.</i>
On an XI system-SP13...I did not maintain any RFC dest for this pruprose. But I cud use additional mappig types.
Currently I'm trying this on SP16. Its not working.
Am I missing out on any step here? Plz provide ur inputs.
Thanks in advance
praveen

Hi,
>>>>But, I'm not able to see the above mapping types in the drop-down list in Intf Mapping in IR.
just type in the ABAP mapping class name from SE24
and it will work

Error in KE27 - run for trading goods

Dear gurus!
i have a error when i run KE27.
Current, my customer don't have production activity. In SAP system, we activated Material Ledger. in period, i wanna run Periodic valuation (KE27) for all trading goods. (Note that we don't have finished good because not have production, customer just sell trading goods)
I configured some steps follow:
1. Define and Assign Valuation Strategy (in this step, i wonder that which valuation strategy is user for valuation for trading goods)
- valuation trategy : 001
- sequence     material costing       quantity field
       10                        x                            VV099
- assignment of valuation strategy
point of valuation                   record type              valuation strategy
    02                                              F                               001
2. Define Access to Actual Costing/Material Ledger
   Costing key - 01
0 legal valuation
1. only trasfer total cost
   periodic a/c line item
3. Assign Costing Keys to Material Types
point of valuation           record type    Material type        Valid to         costing key 1
        02                                   F                 HAWA              31.12.9999       01
Then, after run period closing in Material ledger, i run KE27 to periodic valuation , but system get error:
" Message no. KE435 - Costing key 01 does not exist
In Profitability Analysis, the system tried to valuate by reading a product cost estimate. The Customizing settings in CO-PA call for valuation using costing key 01.
This costing key is not defined "
explicitly, i maintained costing key and assigned this to trading goods - material type.
Please, help to fix it!
any idea is appreciated.

Activating ML is necessary because in my customer's company sell goods at planed price then revaluate value of inventories and COGS at actual price in the end of each of period. So we decide to use standard price control for trading goods and active Material ledger.
end of period, we run period procedure of ML for trading goods, we expect allocation different amount, revaluate inventories and consumption. Run revaluation step of costing run in ML, we revaluate all   ending inventories and consumption transaction except billing transaction. So, we think that we need to run Ke27 to revaluate all line item document in COPA from billing.
so anybody to help me revaluate consumption amount from billing at actual price in end of period?
thanks in advance!

Trading Goods & Finished Products

Hi
While creating new material we have to give the the material type and as per this the screen will display.I want to know what is the difference between Finished Product and Trading goods in material type.Can anyone give some example of materials/ products which will come under these two material types?
regards
jyoti

Hi Jyothi,
Difference between Trading goods and Finished products.
Trading goods:- Trading goods means company will not manufacture those goods they will purchase the goode from the vedor then they will supply to the cistomer.(thses also can be finished products but not manufactured by the company).
Here production will not takes place so no need to maintain production planning data in the material master.
Supply will happen in two ways,
1.First Company will take the delivery from vendor after that company will deliver the goods to the customer(Individual purcahse order).
2.Company will instuct the vendor to supply the goods directly to the customer.(Third party process).
Finished products :- Which are the products produced or manfacured in the company premises itself.
Here production will takes place so need to maintain production planning data in the material master.
So according to that system will allow the fields in the material master.
I hope it will clear for you,
Regards,
Murali.

Storage Location for Trading Goods

Dear Experts,
I need to create a different Storage location for Trading Goods.
Process Flow :GRs > Sales order > Deliver > Billing.
Normally in Trading goods we don't do Delivery but in our system we required to create delivery.
So please Give me some idea & Link to make it happen.
Thanks & Regards,
Olet Malla

The nature of a trading good (material type HAWA) is to buy a material from external company, store it, and sell it to customers.
The nature of a finished goods is produce it yourself, store it and then sell it to cusotmers.
So why would one need to use a FERT and exchange the naming if HAWA just does what it is designed for?
if you need an extra storage location for such a material type, then create one with OX09
(please dont create logical storage locations, this just confuses your users, stick to the physical locations)

Trading Goods

Dear Experts,
We have a business scenario where in we purchase a case of 8 units quantity and we break the packing and repack into each case of 3 quantity, we are using different materials codes for both the materials under the same material type HAWA.
The issue is both the materials belong to the same material type and business is not ready to use the procuring 8 quantity case as raw material. The packing charges and labour charges has to be charged to the product not to any cost object.
Is there anyway to address this scenario in SAP without creating the BOM
With Regards
Uday

Hi Stephen,
I am explaining the complete scenario.
Creation of purchase order for 8 unit case(8 unit case config) with material X(HAWA material type)
GRN preparation
Break the 8 piece pack and repack to 3 piece pack this( 3 piece case config)(HAWA Material type only)
Requirement is this 3pc pack charges(labour and packing charges) to be charged to the product only without charging to any cost object.
At present we are doing it manually by preparing the physical inventory document (Mi01) and by posting the manual financial entry which is not acceptable.
We are using product costing for normal production with make to order for exports and repetitive manufacturing for with in country sales.
This trading goods issue to be addressed without charging the cost to any cost center or cost object.
Please explore like capturing the cost on PCC and settling it to material. I tried this scenario but I could not able to confirm the PCC so system will not update the cost to the product
With Regards
Uday

Trading goods as raw materials

Hi friends,
assuming that, in my business we have regular trading goods which are sold. But in some cases we use them for production ( which are actually meant for sales ).
Now, we would have already identified them with material type HAWA.
what are the steps or pre requisites to use them for prodution in SAP. Do i also need to identify that material as ROH. What are the FI effects of this. Because ROH and HAWA have different valuation class.
Thanks in advance
Pavan

Der Material type change associated with the valuatioon class change which is linked with GL a/c
Now just goto MMAM and try to chage...system will give required pre requisit.
From FI angle - valuation of the stock will not get shifted GL a/c to other...hence there should not be nay issue.
Since there was no consumption of gthe material till now in the system, you may hev to fix a consumption account in OBYC for this valuation calss and valuation modifier.
check from MM angle about you may required to maintain some view in material master if required.
