Crazy date calculation in PO receipt

Hello
My integrator tells me it is not a bug that receipt date on a line = PO expected date until invoice and then = invoice date.
Can anyone tell me why SAP b1 made such a choice ? what are the functional rational for this ?
This is, functionnaly speaking, against everything single best practice I know in the logistics field. But I am not an expert in the field and there are certainly rationale I ignore. But this standard set up of B1 seems to me the craziest thing because date on a document should reflect what is physically happening to it and not financial posting that happens at different times.
Thanks for your help

hello Suda
No we are talking of the same thing I believe. I am talking of that date in a PO receipt.
The PO receipt line should have the reception date. It should not inherit a date from another document. Reception date on the line should be the date of reception of the item.This allows then to calculate punctuality.
The problem is that I can't find it.
We are working on 2007, latest patch.

Fabrice

How are APO/R3 dates calculated

Hi All,
In APO, for a PO, we have ' Requirement date', 'Availability date' and in R3, we have reqmnt/rect date and delivery date.
How are these dates calculated from a reference?
My understanding- System takes the requirement date( date on which there is a reqmnt for the material), subtracts a time equal to GR+GI time and arrives at Availability date. the same Availability date is transferred to R3 as 'Reqmnt/Rect date'. But how is the delivery date in R3 calculated?
suppose I have a requirement date in APO, what are the details that I need to calculate successive dates?
Regards
Manotosh

Hi,
I have one confusion pls. clarify.
Requirement date=Date of demand on which material is required.
Delivery date= Date of demand- planned delivery time /transportation duration
Availability date= Delivery date+GR process time.
In product veiw in APO you will see as availability date and receipt date.

Schedule Line Delivery Date Calculation with Transportation Scheduling

Hi All,
We are currently running into a problem where our Sales Order Schedule Line delivery dates are being pushed out too far into the future - because of the Calendar being used to determine the transit time.
We have 'Delivery Scheduling' and 'Transportation Scheduling' activated for our Sales Document type
We have Routes that are configured with a 'Transit Time' and a 'Factory Calendar'
Order Scenario:
'Factory Calendar' assigned to our 'Route' is setup with only one 'Workday' in a given week e.g. Wednesday
Our 'Route' has a Transit Time of 2 days
We create a Sales Order on Monday for a Material that is available in our Plant
The 'Goods Issue' date is being determined correctly for the next Workday - being Wednesday
The 'Delivery Date' is extending out over 15 days (2 Wednesdays into the future) - since it is working on 'Calendar Days' and not 'Actual Days'
Does anyone know of a way (config or other) to only influence the 'Goods Issue' date with the 'Factory Calendar' assigned to the Route, and have the 'Delivery Date' calculated using the Transit Time on the Route and 'Actual Days' rather than Calendar days?
All help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ravelle<i></i>

Hi Pathik,
Thanks for your reply. I have already maintained the Calendars I'm using for this business process in <SCAL> - same as <OY05>.
The problem I'm having though is that by assigning a Calendar directly to my route (which I doing to influence the goods issue date - using a 1 Working Day Calendar) it is also taking precedence in determining the Transit time - which in this case I don't want, as I want my Transit time to be determined using a 5 Working Day Calendar.
I don't think this problem has a config option as a work around...I think the only possibility in this case is a development to achieve the results we need.
Thanks,
Ravelle

Batch classification "Date of last goods receipt" is "00.00.0000"

Dear all,
I have configured all steps for batch determination for FIFO.
It worked fine for IM (stock transfer - mov.type 301) on last friday, however, get the issue today:
- After I do GR (mov.type 101), the batch is auto created, batch classification is created,
I use MSC2N to view batch classification:
the value of "Date of last goods receipt" is "00.00.0000"
What is wrong with my configuration?
Could you pls help me to fix this?
Thanl you very much for you help!

System Updates Batch Data in the Batch Master Record in the Following ways :
1) If the batch does not yet exist for the plant, it is automatically created.
2) If the batch already exists for the plant, the new quantity is simply posted as a receipt in the specified storage location.
When posting a goods receipt with reference to Purchase order, the system updates Posting date as the goods receipt date in general data of the batch.

Hello All,
In my report, User wants to see a day counter which is the dfference of a date (date coming from cube) and Current date. For current date we are using 0f_aday sap exit. How we can we acheive this, does it involve any User exits at the back end or can I use a calculated keyfigure to find the difference between these two dates.
Please reply to this as it is very Urgent Issue

HI AL,
Thanks for the udpate. But I believe we can update any thread if its related with the same subject if its less than 3 years. Is it not right ? I have a mail in my inbox, from some moderator confirming the same. That is the reason I have updated this thread...as its related to the same question and this thread is created n 2011.
Anyway, thanks for the answer. I will change the dimension to date and calculate the difference from the 2 variables.

Due Date Calculation on A/R Invoice

The Due date calculation on an Invoice for a customer with a payment condition of 30 days is wrong on the system:
Invoice DocDate: 11.05.17
Invoice DueDate: 11.07.01
On the BP Master Data is set a payment condition of 30 days. So it should be a due date of June, not July. This is a invoice that comes from a Sales Order with Approval Procedure.
Our version is 2007 A SP:00 PL:49.
Thanks in Advance...

We have a requirement to exclude non-Business days while calculating Baseline date(for the Accounting Document created on saving the Billing document)
Currently the Baseline Date being populated in the Accounting Document is Document date + 5days(including Holidays).
For eg
Current Scenario
Document Date: 12th Feb 2008
Baseline date: 17th feb 2008.
Requirement:
Document Date: 12th Feb 2008
Baseline date: 19th feb 2008(Excluding Sat & Sun).
Request you to share useful info in this regard.

Baseline date calculation in Invoice verification (MIRO)

Dear experts,
I need to set baseline date after 40 days from document date in MIRO.
Baseline date calculation of "Terms of Payment" in IMG has two parameters:
・Fixed day
・Additional months
We cannot set 40 days in these parameters.
Can anybody tell me how to set baseline date not month but date(not fixed day) ?
Please advise me on the settings SPRO>MM>Purchasing>Vendor Master>Define terms of Payment.
Thanks & Regards
Ken

Hi,
You can't do this.
The baseline date is the date on which the calculations are made.
So if you have 40 days to pay, this will be 40 days from the baseline date.
This will either be the document date or another date, but you can't (in standard SAP) have the baseline date as "X" days after "Y".
So the baseline date is the date of an event (e.g. the date that the Invoice was posted) not a calculation.
Is it possible that you have misunderstood the use of this date?
If you just want to ensure that the payment date is 40 days after invoice recipt, then set you just have to enter the number of days in the payment terms and the baseline date stays as the invoice date (etc.)

Baseline Date for Due Date Calculation required for S/L indicators

Hello,
Iu2019m facing the following problem
Iu2019m trying to insert an invoice (using a customer master record) but the system blocks me because the field ZFBDT (Baseline Date for Due Date Calculation) is a Required entry.
The strange thing is that if I use a S/L indicators the field is mandatory, if not the date may be defaulted.
I checked in OB41 but there are non differences between Special PK and normal PK.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Alberto

Dear Alberto,
the field "Due On (BSEG-ZFBDT)" cannot be controlled with field status.
It is controlled by field attribute of screen painter (Tcd: SE51). If
you look at element attribute for "Due On" field, a flag for required
entry is activated. In this case, field status has no control over
the field.
As of release 3.1G, field BSEG-ZFBDT is hardcoded in most FI screens
to be mandatory and cannot be influenced by any field status
changes. This situation is only valid when posting with special G/L
indicator (ie PK 29/39).
SAP development team has determined that this is a critical field. The
reason behind this is that this special GL screen and the data entered
here are very important to many other programs. This data affects
liabilities and receivables where due date is necessary almost
everytime. Thus, we changed this field in this screen in order to
prevent problems in many other areas. The reason is explained further
in note 95079.
I hope this helps You.

How is delivery date calculated

How can anyone please explain how delivery date is calculated using forward and backward scheduling
I want to have it broken down into the following steps
for eg for delivery date calculation following dates are used
Material Availabilty Date
Material Staging Date
Pick/pack time
Transportation PLanning date
Loading date
Goods issue date
Transit Date
Delivery Date
Can some one please give me an example and explain wht these dates are
for eg customer needs delivery date on 11/20/2008
how would the system cacluate whether it can meet the delivery date using backward scheduling
and if it doesnt meet how does the system do the forward scheduling
also i am not clear with the following dates
material avaialibilty date
material staging date
transportation date
can some one please explain me all this in detail
Also i have another question at the sales order creation when is shipping point and route determined
coz based on the ATP check only material avaialabilty date is determined and if we have a bacjground job running every 1 hours for atp then immediately when we create a sales order is a route and shipping point determined (just before we save the sales order)
Let me be more clear
Suppose customer representative recevies a order on the phone
he enters sold to party, ship to party ,PO number,delivery date and material number and then hits enter
so at tht time the shipping point and route is determined ?
also when an atp check runs and if the delivery date is not met then the system will propose a new delivery date but if we have a different route configured say for eg overnight so we can meet the delivery date and we want to change this route to overnight what must we do?
should we change the shipping condition in the header?
I am not very sure about the process can you please also explain me this in detail?
Thanks

Hi there,
When a sales order is logged & the user enters the requested delivery date, system 1st does the backward scheduling date. Pla note that the factory calender mentioned in the shipping point & route plays a crutial role in defining the working days & confirmed delivery date.
For eg: Customer has raised an order on 11/15 & requests delivery on 11/20/2008.
the following times are important in delivery scheduling.
Transit time: maintained in route
Loading time maintained in the shipping point
Transportation planing time maintained in the transportation planning point.
pick pack time maintained in the shipping point.
Material availability time maintained in MM02 --> MRP screens. This is the time that the material can be manufactured (for inhouse producted items) or external processing time (for externallly procured materials like TAS items).
From the requested delivery date 11/20 system does the backward scheduling & determines the following dates:
Goods issue date, loading date, pick pack date, transportation planning date & material availability date.
Time between:
goods issue date - reqested delivery date: transit time
Goods issue date - loading date: loading time
transportation planning date - pick pack date: picking pack time
Material availability date - transportation date: transportation planning time.
Consider that the factory calender has all days of the week as working dates (to make it simple to explain). Also transit time is 3 days, loading time is 1 day,pick pack time is 1 day, material availability time is 3 days.
From 11/20 ussing backward scheduling system determines the following dates:
Goods issue date: 11/17
Loading date: 11/16
Pick pack date: 11/15
System will check if material is available on the 11/15 to start pick / pack. If it is available then system will confirm the reqested delivery date. Else it will check when the material is available. For eg basing on the MRP settings mnaterial is available only on 11/18. So from 18th system does forward scheduling & redetermines all the dates. So pick / pack date is 11/18. Loading date is 11/19, goods issue date is 11/20 & possible delivery date is 11/23. So system will confirm the delivery date on 11/23. This is when complete delivery is required. If partial delivery is allowed, then system will check how much quantity is available on 11/15. Accordingly it will give 2 delivery dates.
In the above example include teh factory calender which will have 5 day week with Fri & Sat as holidays. Accordingly dates will change.
Here replenishment lead time also plays an imp role. Pls refer http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/6b/2785347860ea35e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm for further information

Dynamic Date Calculation for Current Date - 1

I am trying to create a variant with a dynamic date calculation attribute.
I am following the instructions as they are posted to the web but I get an error message.
I want to get all data EQ to the current date -1
In the object for selection screen I enter a D for Selection Variable, for Name of Variable I enter an I to include specific values and the option EQ for current date +/- ??? days. Then I enter 1- for the number of days. I have tried to enter this many times and in many ways but it doesn't work. I keep getting this message "lower limit of interval is greater than upper limit"

Hi,
Welcome to SDN.
Selection-screen has four values -
SIGN
OPTION
LOW
HIGH
Pass your date value in the option low for the screen.
Sign you have already pass as I and option as EQ.
Regard,
Amit

How to use Dynamic date calculation in some transactions.

Hello everyone.
I have to create some dynamic variants using the dynamic date calculation. The problem is that in some transactions it´s not possible to use some variables that can round a value. For example: in transaction /SAPAPO/MC90, I need to fix 3 months in the horizon like this: From date: 01.01.2009 To date 31.03.2009. The current month is 01.01.2009. Next month the current month will be february, so the horizon would be 01.02.2009 to 30.04.2009.
In 5.1 version, it´s impossible to fix the months, because the options that appear in the match code are:
Current Date
Current date +/- ??? days
current date +/- ??? work days
First day of current month
nth working day of current month
First day of next month
First day of previous month
Last day of previous month
Last Day of the Current Month
Does anybody knows how to do this? This is happening in other transactions to.
Thanks a lot
Regards
Angela

I am not sure where you are looking for..but here is what I can do it in MC90 Tcode:
1. when you try to save the variant, in the variant screen check the two boxes under "Current date" field for Selection Variables attributes "L"
2. Then click on Selection variables option and click on the "D" variable so that it turns to green
3. Drop down in the first current date field, select "Current +/- ??? days. here if you want to start from today's date maintain 0 days
4. In the second Current date field maintain 90 days in "Current +/- ??? days.
5. save it
please let me know if I misunderstod the issue

Fiscal Calendar in Report Variant Dynamic Date Calculation

We are switching from the standard calendar to a 4/4/5 calendar for our fiscal calendar. We have a number of batch reports that use dynamic date calculation in the variant to get Month-To-Date or Previous Month date ranges. Is there a way to convert these variants to use the new FiScal calendar instead of the regular calendar?

thanks to answer , praveen.
I know, VARI has name of FM , but not has Calendar ID.

Date calculation script

Hi,
I need to calculate difference between two dates. I believe that i should use function @DATEDIFF to perform such a calculation.
But the problem that one of the dates calculated by such a script:
i=@TODATEEX("Month dd yyyy",@CONCATENATE(@CONCATENATE(@NAME(@CURRMBR("Current Period"))," 01 "),@NAME(@ALIAS({RTP_Year}))));
i=(@DATEPART(i,DP_YEAR)*100 + @DATEPART(i,DP_MONTH))*100+ @DATEPART(i,DP_DAY);
This script returns first day of currently selected month and planning period (RTP_Year - financial year).
And when i try to perfom calculation between variable i and member i ends whith error. Could you suggest something?
I also tried some work arounds suggested in other threads but whithout success. I use 1.1.2.1.
