Copy Material Codes, Costs, and Cost Code Distribution

Has any one come up with way to copy material codes with their unit prices and cost code distributions from one project(or template) to another? When a user has a large inventory of material codes, it would be helpful to be able to copy, or import these to a new project.
Thanks for any help.

Forgot to mention that CMPlus will copy Materials from one project to another with the unit pricing of the current project HOWEVER, the cost distribution is tied to the contract that the material is associated with. If you are using materials with Daily Reports to track material not related to a contract then this will be all you need. IF you are using Materials in association with line items on a contract/PO then it will populate the selection list but you will need to perform more data entry to properly link to the contract.
By performing this copy from one project to the other the capability to "Generate" materials from a contract or PO is no longer functional because the Material already exists as far a Contract Manager is concerned
One more item to think about - materials can only be associated with one contract - that does not mean that a material can not be used on more than one contract.
I am assuming that since you are asking this question that you have been using materials on your projects and understand the nuances and issues with the way CM handles Materials.

Can I copy MATERIAL adapter object and create new business object in R3AC1

Hi experts,
I need to copy MATERIAL adapter object and create a new business object R3AC1.
Please let me know whether this is feasible.
Thanks & Regards,
Keya

Usually when there is a need to change/create an adapter object, I suggest to change object class to CUSTOMIZING in R3AC1. Then save it and call transaction R3AC3. There do necessary changes and afterwards switch back to original object class. There is no copy functionality for adapter objects. Kindly use transaction R3AC3 to create a new adapter object and maintain all tabs according to your requirements. When you are finished, kindly change the object class "CUSTOMIZING" to the original class name you're copying and the new adapter object will be visible in R3AC1.

Old material overwritten by new material code in Product cost collector

Hi SAP Gurus,
How can I work around if a product cost collector with material XXX has been overwritten by a new material YYY when creating the KKF6N.
Both material code having the same plant, same orde type,same production version but just different material code.
When saving the preliminary costing for the product cost collector for material YYY, the system prompted me the order number 700022 which is already existing and created for material XXX.
By right, this shd not be happened but indeed it did.
Now when displaying the report S_ALR_87013127 - Order Selection, the report showed the new material YYY was created with order number 700022 but the content of the data was for old material XXX.
Now my problem is how can I get back the product cost collector for material XXX as the original order number 700022 was meant for material XXX and not mat YYY.
And also when executing backflush (MFBF) for old material XXX, the error msg prompted as 'content of order 700022: Mat YYY transferred to interface (IMSEG):Mat XXX due to this I can't backflush material XXX.
Really appreciate your expertise on this urgently.
many thanks!

problem due to system bug, have to log to OSS for help.

No link between PR material and PO Material code.

Dear Gurus
My industry is textile industry , here issue is that when MRP run it is giving auto PR based on BOM , but when purchase department is received PR , they start analyzing material the material requirement , they check in stock any raw fabric is there or not , if available they send that raw fabric for subcontracting (for dying) then after dying sent for other different operations, and then required material as per PR is ready......
Now my problem is how to link this auto material PR to different subcontracting PO... because management need report based on what was the material required and why purchase department is not able to provide it on time. please guide me....
Thanks & Regards,
Akshay

Dear Sir ,
I can not maintain special procurement key as 30 in MRP 2 view as it is not at all conform how material will be procure directly or by subcontracting...
if i do like that in PO manually change ilem catagory L , but the is possibility that to get right material as per PR purchase has to do more that 2 times subcontracting at different vendor ....if this is the case the material code in PR and PO defiantly different.... will SAP support this that PR and PO item is different?
Thanks & Regards,
Akshay

T code for Material,plant, stock and price data in std sap

Dear All,
In Std SAP is der any t-code to get Material,plant, stock and price data in 1 go..
waiting for ur early reply

Nainesh

Hi,
Try T.Code: MC.9 and MC.5 etc. These reports will give you total value of the stock but not unit price.
If you are looking at unit price please write a small query using SQVI or append the relevant info structure.

You can never, never migrate an installed copy of PSE. It's just too complex and you can't get to all the bits and bobs.
First you will have to download and run this:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
which will not seem to do anything, but is necessary to break the links within PSE so that you can pitch the bits manually. Then you will have to go around, not only to applications, but also to your username>library>preferences and most importantly to the library at the top level of your hard drive>application support>adobe, and remove everything you can find. Spotlight will not help with this kind of search, so don't try that.
Then you can install PSE from scratch.

Raw material planned cost and qty in table MCKALKW

Hi,
Raw material planned cost and quantity in table MCKALKW is not equal to cost analysis in CO01 / CO02.
Could you please let me know how to get the planned cost and quantity for production order components for report development. i checked other tables like AFPO and AFKO and it is showing only for main material and not for its compoen

Hi,
You can check the cost of the individual components in Bill of materials of each material seperately. Hope this works for you.

Flow material product cost to sales order cost and no explosion of structur

Hello,
We have a business requirement - Business is currently performing product costing at material on monthly basis using quantity structure (with help of avaiable bom and routings). Material costing nicely gives the cost with clear split of material cost, labour cost, external cost etc. Then at sales order level we want to do the preliminary sales order costing. The reason for sales order planned costing is, we are performing result analysis revenue based by comparing planned cost. Business is saying, we already calculated the material cost, labour cost at the product level and same should be as it is transferred to the sales order planned cost and we just want to add the overheads.
The cost already calculated should directly pass to sales order and the order should not explode the BOMs again or try to find activity prices from routings. Then with the already available values of material, labour costs, system should only add the overheads via costing sheet.
The cost compenent structure exploded in material should be passed to sales order and not just the total cost.
There are several reasons I believe sap should not allow this behaviour. I seek your inputs to validate the same.

THIS SHOULD BE POSSIBLE WITH "TRANSFER STRATEGIES" - TCODE OKKM.
GO BY THE BELOW GIVEN PATH AND TRY.
READ IMG DOCUMENTATION FIRST, THEN TRY.

Asset material code

Dear Expert
in our system presently we open asset code through as01 and in the PO we select the account assignment category A but now we want to create material code for the asset PO i.e with account assignment category A and material code how it effect the accounting procedure as we will be having 2 master material code and asset code . Is it hit the accounting of the company ??
Regards

There are two ways by which you can create an Asset PO.
1. Create a material code with material type asset, that you need to create by copying from materoial type raw material.
Create a normal PO and purchase as if you are purchasing raw material. Once the material is in your inventory then issue to an asset using movement type 241.
2. In the second process, get the asset number created by your Finance department and then create a PO with Account assignment A. In this case as soon as you do GR the cost will automatically get allocated to an Asset.
Hope this will help

Material Code with Different profit Centers in One Plant

Hi Experts,
There is one requirement in my project that given in detailed below please:
Material code                     Plant                       Profit Center
MSR009                            2011                       2011
                                                                        2012
                                                                        2013
one material code, one plant and 3 profit center,. the material should trigger with different profit center from sales order to revenue booking..
So is it possible to map that configuration in SAP, if yes please guide me
Thanks and regards
Madhu

Hi,
Profit centre is trigured through
Material master
Company code + Cost element
When you create sales order it id derived form material master if you maintained in material master
Else at the time of invoice creation and account posting it is derived from company code + cost element combination(Which is mentianed in OKB9 by FICO people)

Problem regarding Duplicate Material Codes in SAP

Dear Xperts,
In our manufacturing plant,we are not using Split Valuation for same materials procured either from the domestic or from the imported Vendor.Even they are not using the same for the materials received through free of cost or through proper payment process.They are using two material codes and for this data redundancy occurred.Now they want to club the same into one material code but do not want to use Split Valuation till now.
They want the following:
1. For domestic Vendor they will follow Purchae Order.
2. For international Vendor they will follow Schedule Agreement.
3. They want only Delivery Schedule to be generated through MRP.No Purchase Requisition will be generated.
But how to proceed.Is it possible?
Plz advice.
Regards,
Soumick

HI,
But is it possible to generate only Delivery Schedules thru MRP?Means not to generate PR if we use both PO and SA for same material but for different Vendors?
PR not generated for scheduling agreement only schedule line will generated as per define schedule in scheduling agreement
ME31L = to Create SA document type LA or LPA
Me32L = to change SA
ME38 = to maintain delivery schedule
assign scheduling agreement in source list ME01 and select indicator 2 MRP relevant and in material master in purchasing view select JIT indicator
MIGO = to enter GR against SA
MIRO = to enter IR against SA
check following link
[MRP To Generate SCHEDULE LINES for Scheduling Agreement;

REG: Creating customer stock for different material codes has an single set

Hi FRIENDS,
we are purchasing finished items from our vendor in numbers (Eg. Item Number 1 to 6 (all different items and having different item codes)) and selling it to our customer in a set ( 1 set contains all this 6 items and we have code for this Set). Please let me know how to create the customer stock for these items in the store as the store shows stock for 7 different items, not in a set.
Please let em know if any more information is nedded

hi dan,
as per your requriment you can have all MRP viewsfor HAWA material type.
that means you are purchasing, use HAWA for finished goods in SAP system.
if you are having different item codes seperately for each item.
take one packing material called CARTON and maintain UOM as 6 items and you can pack the same in BOM.
use PP -PHANTOM - BOM which should add all the 7 materials in & gives one single material as OUTPUT.
use 561 GMT and upload that material as a final finished goods and in MMBE you can see only one called CARTON inside it set of 6 materials will be there.
BUT BE AWARE OF COSTING OF THE MATERIAL because each material will be having the its price. So discuiss with PP as well as FICO consultants.
whether you will cost the total set of carton or individual material
go ahead
test and confirm
this clears your issue
