Correcting Batch numbers

Hi All,
We entered a production order with an incorrect batch/lot number. Is there a way to adjust the batch/lot number without having to do an goods issue and goods receipt.
I looked into the Batch update option but the Batch fields are greyed out. We just have an option to change the attributes and other details. I just want to confirm if my understanding is right that Batch numbers cannot be swaped/adjusted.
Appreciate your input on this.
Thank you,
Payal

Hi Payal
You are correct, will have to issue out and receipt on correct batch.
Kind regards

User exit SAPLV1ZE for batch numbering

Hello,
The problem is with user exits. I have to make user exit that checks correct batch numbering. When user enters the batch number in transaction, for example, MSC1N it should check is it according standards. I found that user exit SAPLV1ZE is for such purposes and wrote code for this user exit to save dataset each time it executes, to test is it working.
As I understand form documentation, this user exit is triggered when you press enter after entering batch number in transaction MSC1N. I tried to do it and everything worked fine (dataset was created)! I added some code and tried to execute it again. It worked, but only once! I tried to execute it again with same code and it didnt work! Now I commented all the code I added and left only dataset creation part but no results I cant make it work again.
The user exit is activated and the code in it is correct (tried to copy it in report and execute). I thought it can be used only once per material or plant, so I tried to trigger the user exit with different data, but it doesnt work anyway.
Maybe anyone of you have this kind of solution in your system or you just have some ideas where the problem could be?
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks in advice!

The issue is solved! I tried to put break point in function where this user exits are called and it didn't stop when I tried to run it from MSC1N. I tried to do the same from other transactions and found that this user exit is triggered from, for example, MIGO. And it is working fine.
So the problem was that user exit SAPLV1ZE is not triggered from MSC1N. I'll have to find another user exit...

Sales Analysis Report for Batch Numbers

I am currently having an issue with Batch numbers and sales analysis report item wise. If the goods are delivered it does not show the quantity in the report. is there a way to make the quantites show. Open delivery notes show the quantity in the report. Could the reason be that once the delivery note is closed the quantity does not show in the report.????

Dear Mr Shah,
If I understood correctly, you are saying that there is no issue in adding the document with the batch but it is not shown in the Sales Analysis report?
The Sales Analysis report does not show information regarding the quantity because it focuses on the value of the document.
In order to have an overview on the trasactions related to the batches please use the Batch Number Transaction Report under Inventory - Inventory report.

Batch Numbers in Invoice layouts

Hi Guys,
I am trying to use Crystal reports to bring in Batch Numbers for Line Items, I have the following Query but it is not quite working correctly and I cant work out how to ensure the Batch No it Shoes is correct and matches to those in the Right Click Batch Details on an AR Invoice. Can anyone point me in the right direction at all ?
SELECT T0.[DocNum], T1.[ItemCode], T1.[Dscription], T2.[ItemCode], T2.[DistNumber], T2.[ExpDate] FROM OINV T0 INNER JOIN INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry LEFT OUTER JOIN OBTN T2 ON T1.[ItemCode] = T2.[ItemCode] WHERE T0.[DocNum] ='227'
Kind regards
Sean Martin

Hi Sean......
Try this.....
Select T0.DocNum, T1.ItemCode, T1.Dscription, T8.ItemCode, T8.DistNumber, T8.ExpDate,
I1.BatchNum
FROM OINV T0 INNER JOIN INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry
LEFT Join DLN1 T6 On T6.DocEntry=T1.BaseEntry and T6.LineNum=T1.BaseLine
left outer join IBT1 I1 on T1.ItemCode=I1.ItemCode and (T6.DocEntry=I1.BaseEntry and T6.ObjType=I1.BaseType)
left outer join OBTN T8 on T8.ItemCode=I1.ItemCode and I1.BatchNum=T8.DistNumber
Above Query will bring the data of batches in Invoice CR even though the batch is created at the time of delivery
Hope this will help you..........

Rahul

Report for a selection of items+batch numbers that I would have had on hand

I would like to run a report for a selection of items and batch numbers that I would have had on hand (only) for September 30th. I have run the batch numbers report but this gives me all transactions from August 1/09 to September 30/09.

Hi
If you need to know quantity onhand ,probably you need to run query against OINM tables but If you are lloking for information then I guess this batch and serial number would be handy ....
Hope this helps

What are the Pros and Cons of Using Batch Numbers over Serialization

Dear SAP Gurus:
Will someone please give me the benefits of using Batch Management over serial numbers in this case scenerio, or vice versa:
Client wants to trace all the components of an assembly in a BOM. Even the Raw material. The client sends the material out today and has the vendor assign serial numbers to the individual pieces, the client gives the range of serial numbers to use. We are looking at using batch numbers to accomplish this and issue one material and batch number to a production order. Then use MB56 batch where used functionality to view history. I am wanting to understand the benefits of this. Please advise and points will be awarded as always.
Also, in this scenerio, can you issue multiple material/batch numbers to one vendor op that has its own production order?

Yes it is a subcontract.
Example: This is the solution but need the pros and cons of doing this scenerio
Sheet of metal sent to vendor to make lets say 1800 peices of material number nas5703-01. All 1800 pieces come back and issued to a production work order using one bacth number for one material item so that batch number can be traced in history in MB56 and a fit up report.

Batch numbering

Hi
Batch management there are 3 internal number ranges and 1 external number range.
How system will automatically pick up the number range during batch creation (GR or release of prod.orders)?
If i create one more internal /External number range - how system will verify and create new batch with new number range?
Can you please through some lights on this....
Thanks
Sami

Configure Customer Exits for Intern. Batch Number Assignment
You can use SAP enhancement SAPLV01Z for internal batch number assignment. This enhancement contains two function module exits that you can use to define number ranges or templates for batch numbers:
EXIT_SAPLV01Z_001. You use this exit to replace the number range object and/or interval proposed by the system with your own number range object and/or interval.
In addition, you can, for instance, stop the system from assigning an internal number depending on the material or plant. You can also use this exit to stop the dialog box from appearing.
EXIT_SAPLV01Z_002. Using this exit, you can either change the number assigned by the system, or assign your own number.
Further notes
Both exits contain a communication structure with application data from the respective business transaction (plant or material type, for example). If you need further information, such as the time, the user name or the date, you must include them yourself in one of the exits.
The system always checks whether the assigned batch number already exists in the system. If it does, it terminates the function without assigning a batch number.
Example:
In function module exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_001, the system uses the material type to determine number range interval XY. This number range is then used to determine number 0000100123 as the next batch number .
In function module exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_002, the final batch number 'ABCD100123' is determined from batch number 0000100123 and plant ABCD. The system suppresses the leading zeros.
If you do not use a sequential counter for the batch number, you can skip internal number assignment in exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_001 to specify your own batch number in exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_002. Further information and examples for EXIT_SAPLV01Z_001 and EXIT_SAPLV01Z_002 Further information and examples for EXIT_SAPLV01Z_002

Multiple batch numbering in one client.

Hi PP Gurus,
We have a business scenario wherein more than one business exist. For clients pharma business then batch numering logi is different and for other businesses it is different.
We have a proposal by which the Batch numbering at the time of Process order creation will be checked by User Exit about the existence of the batch key in manually.
But for other business we want to keep Internal batch numbering with other User Exit.
Can we have more than one kind of batch numbering; Internal & External both with different batch numbering logic?
Thanks,
Abu Arbab

Hi Abu,
For the movement type where the batch is getting generated, in customizing for Batch creation
set it for Automatic / Manual check in USER EXIT.
Try this out & revert.

Duplicate entries (Batch numbers) in printout

Hi experts,
we are using Inventory Transfer for Consignment Stock in B1. When we print the document we get an inventory transfer document and a Delivery Note/Packing List that shows the batch numbers ("Batch Report in Document Structure").
However, the line with the batch number always shows up twice. It just duplicates it as it would grab the information from two different tables. But this is confusing and makes no sense at all to have a double entry.
I'm using a customized template. There are three fields in the repetitive area that show up twice in the printout:
- OIBT - Batch No. for Item: Batch Attribute 1
- OIBT - Batch No. for Item: Quantity
- OIBT - Batch No. for Item: Location
Thanks in advance for your help.
Please let me know in case you need more information. I spent several hours to figure out why it duplicates the entries, but I couldn't find a solution.

With customization I mean that it's different from the system template. I deleted some fields we don't need etc.
I changed it to the system template (Batch Report (System)), but with this template I get the same. The line from the repetitive area shows up twice in the printout.
I thought there is only one table where the template grabs the information, but it looks like there are two separate sources.

How can I eliminate duplicate Batch Numbers?

SBO allows serial numbers to be unique, but not batch numbers. The system allows the same batch number to be used for a different part. I have a medical company that requires unique Batch numbers accross the board, regardless of part number. Any suggestions? I tried to do this with a formatted search that would identify a duplicate Batch for me, but my search crashed and burned.
Here is the Formatted Search I tried to connect to the Batches Setup Form:
SELECT 'Batch allready used!' FROM IBT1 T0 WHERE T0.[BatchNum] = $[$3.3.0]
Anyone out there know how to force unique batch numbers?
Thanks!
Mike
Edited by: Mike White on May 7, 2008 7:07 PM

What I am saying is, I never want a duplicate Batch number even if the parts are different. In your example, Item A could not have the same Batch number as Item B. Unfortinately, SBO allows duplicate batch numbers as long as the part numbers are different.
The reason for this is two fold. 1) This medical company cannot, never have the same batch number, and 2) reporting from the OIBT and IBT1 tables gets a bit complicated with duplicate batch numbers.
So my thought is to simply create a formatted search which runs from the Batches Setup Form, checking to see if this Batch Number has allready been used, then replacing the entry if TRUE with something like "Batch Allready Assinged".

Finding Tables needed for linking Batch Numbers/Items to Invoice Items

I'm trying to create a report that will show basically a Sales Invoice and under each line Item show the Items with thier batch numbers that went into that sales Item. My difficulty is in finding the table or tables that have key fields to relate Invoice to Batches and inventory. Looking at forms/reports in B1 I have found RBTN OBTN and RITL tables but only the OBTN shows in the crystal as a datatable.

Jon,
You should have better luck posting in one of the [Business One forums|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/index.jspa?categoryID=1#44].

Batch Numbers in XL Reporter

Hi All
Does anyone know if it's possible to view batch numbers of stocked items using XL Reporter?
Many thanks
Hayden

Hi Hayden,
XL Reporter is not that user friendly to certain type of report. Batch numbers will be one of the example.
You had better try Crystal Reports.
Thanks,

How to config the batch numbers internally from remaining?

Hi All
Firsr i followed the path and activated the internal batch number assignment(IMG ---> Logistics - General ---> Batch Management ---> Batch Number Assignment ---> Activate Internal Batch Number Assignment)
then i have maintained the number ranges for the batches
Still when I do MIGO the batch tab appears but the system is not generating the batch numbers internally instead its asking to enter the batch number.
Please suggest if I have missed any other config or any master data towards the settings for Batch Management and also to have the system create the batch numbers at the GR stage.
Thanks&Regards

Report for batch numbers and delivery

Dear gurus,
Is there a report that
I can see batch numbers and delivery at the same time?

Use t.code VL06 and click on List outbound deliveries button.
In the selection screen, enter details like sales org, distribution channel, division, shipping point and actual or planned goods movement date (per your requirement) and execute.
In the next result display click on item view button. To get the batch data, click on change layout button. From the list of fields available (hidden field list) on the right hand side, select on batch and click on left arrow button.
Then click on copy button. You can see the batch details with delivery line items.
This report is useful, where in you can select addtional fields from layout button.
