Creation of Inspection lot in Alternative Unit of measure

Dear Guru,
Our implementation is going on in a Tube manufacturing company where Base Unit is maintain in KG & 100 % visual inspection is taken place & we accept or reject tube on Pieces. So how can we do this in SAP, Because in SAP Inspection Lot is created on Base Unit & UD (Stock Movement) also in base unit, How can we in corporate Alternative Unit of measure.

Hi,
      1. give unit of conversion in MM basic data (Unit of measurement) say 1 kg = 10 pieces
       2. add unit of issue as a Pieces in MM QM view
        3. add in inspection paln Unit of measure as Pieces ( if possible )
Now during stock posting post the stock KG and now see in stock MMBE by changing the UOm as a pieces you will get the stock in pieces and you can now issue the material in pieces too.
Experts pl guide if i am wrong anywhere

BAPI for Creation of inspection lot

I have two scenario:-
1.Can any body help to find BAPI for creation of Inspection lot for the material under PO envisaged for PDI.
2. Can any body find me a BAPI or FM which can creates inspection lot in QALS table without inspection lot origin under 01 i.e. 0101 or Z01SI01.
My objective is to creation inspection lot without assigning Inspection type of Z01SI01 or Z01SI02 and so on in the material code under a respective Plant 1004 or 1005 0r 1006 so on.
In my Z Development for creation of inspection lot BDC is run for QA01 as this code created inspection lot on when material code has inspection type Z01SI01 i.e. location of source inspection and vendr code particular classification under 010 vendor class inspection type Z01SI01. System search both the inspection type for both material and vendor then create inspection lot in QALS table by assiging inspection matching inspection on the lot.
I want to get rid of assignment of inspection on the materilal. If any BAPI or FM is avalable for creation of inspection without assigning inspection type on material code. I want to create inspection lot in which Inpsection type assignment can be done based on vendor class only.
YPB

2. Can any body find me a BAPI or FM which can creates inspection lot in QALS table without inspection lot origin under 01 i.e. 0101 or Z01SI01.
I am very sure that this is not possible.You can not create inspection lot without inspection lot origin or inspection type.

Restrict creation of inspection lot for certain work centers

Hi
My client needs to restrict the creation of inspection lot at certain work centers although QM is active for all material processed in these work centers.
I am using the function module 'EXIT_SAPLQAAT_002' of QAAT0001 for this purpose. Z04 inspection type ( with Post to insp stock) is maintained for all these material.
A different Z table is there , where material-work center combination is maintained for which no inspection lot is required.
Logic provided so that system searches Material-Work center from production order then compares it with the Material-Work center combination with the maintained Z Table.If both found same then no inspection lot will be generated.
But an error message (Change the inspection stock of material XXXXXX in QM only) appears for all those material while doing confirmation in CO11N . Hence system does not allow to complete confirmation for those material where QM is active.
Please suggest if i am using the correct Exit or any further improvement is required.
Thanks and regards
D Mohanty

Hi
Actually the issue is resolved now.The problem was with coding where we were using Table-AFRU for reading prod order details.But AFRU does not consider fresh orders for which it was replaced with AFKO.
Also the Z table must be maintained as Plant-Material-Work center combination prior to go for any order confirmation.
Thank you all who have gone through the post , hope this will help those who have to map the same scenario at their end.

Creation of Inspection Lot in QM Module without inspection lot origin

I want a solution regarding creation of inspection lot without assigning inspection lot origin to material code.
We have developed function which creates inspection lot for the material against which PDI is envisaged on the material of a particular Purchase order. In my view we do not require assigning inspection lot origin on the material code as process has been mapped through Qinfo record. By assigning the inspection lot origin on the material is unnecessary step in our process.
Can any body suggest solution regarding above problem.
Yatindra Bahuguna

Dear,
We have developed function which creates inspection lot for the material against which PDI is envisaged on the material of a particular Purchase order.
Little bit stuck up.... can you explain the above in detail...
As I understood you developed a function -
- Which creates material inspection lot
- Which Pre Delivery Inspection applicable on particular purchase order.
YES?

Stop Automatic Creation of Inspection Lot for a condition

Dear Gurus,
While Creating a Delivery through a Sales Order, Config is maintained such that "Inspection Lot" will be automatically Generated.
Now Business wants to Stop this Automatic Creation of Inspection Lot only for a Particular Delivery Type and for a particular mode of Transport.
Do we have any User Exits / BADIs to achieve this requirement.
Please let us know.
Thanks in advance.

Vinay Mutt

Hi
To meet you above mentioned requirement you have to modify the program RQAAAS10 as per your logic both to create lot for Expired Material and to consider project stock or vendor stock as In standard SAP these stock are not considered.

PR Creation at Inspection lot creation

Dear QM Experts
can we generate Purchase requisition with the creation of Inspection lot, Automatically.
in my case there are some inspection operation performed by external agency for which he charge some amount for services.
for this i created a control key of external services and assign this in the inspection plan in a separate operation and enter all the required data like cost element, vendor, Purchasing oganization and material group but when i created the inspection lot , PR is not generated,
should this requirement be cater by SAP?
Regards

Hi,
Why do not you try here Source inspection.
During crsation of purchase order lot will get generated .you can inspect material before its coming to your place..
You have to activate 0101 inspection type active.
Qinfo record you have activate source inspection.
Even in procurrement key in custamizing you can have option if material get rejected.
Once purchase order created to create lot you have run transaction QI07.where you can click on create lot.after saving this transaction you can get lot..Then you record result as per toyr requirement like from external services.

HI,
The table below provides a brief overview of the functions you can use to process inspection lots. Appropriate cross references are included for the more extensive tasks or for those for which additional information is available.
Prerequisites
The inspection lot processing functions can be linked to various authorizations that are checked by the system whenever you try to process an inspection lot. The following types authorizations are relevant to inspection lot processing:
Material authorizations
The material authorization for QM is stored in the material master. For more information, see Creating and Changing QM-Specific Data for a Material.
Inspection type authorizations
This authorization controls which inspection type the user can access in order to create an inspection lot. The inspection type authorization is plant-specific.
No authorization checks are executed in QM when an inspection lot is created automatically.

Automatic creation of inspection Lot upon GR

Hello all,
i have a problem with QM module. I want that when QI is active in material master the system automaticcaly create an inspection lot. At the moment when i post the GR the system doesn't create it.
The GR is posted in a storage location manage by WM, so i have customize also the interface WM-WM.
Can you help me, please?
Thanks
Matteo

Hi Matteo,
The settings required for automatic creation of inspection lot are as follows:
1. Tick the procurement active tick on the material master and assign a QM control key.
2. Assign inspection type 01 and set this to active.
3. Create the q-info record for the material, plant and vendor combination.
4. Set the inspection control to inspection active in the q-info record (no need for the status profile unless you controlling which inspection type to create depending on the specific status).
5. Also ensure for the PO you receiving that the stock type is set to quality inspection and the QM control key is specified.
This should create the inspection lot automatically without the need of a status profile.

Roderick

QAC1 in alternative unit of measure

Hey All
I need to know how can I make the quantity correction of actual quantity of inspection lot based on the alternative unit of measure not the base unit of measure?
I have inspection lot (04) where it's actual quantity is in base unit of measure M2 but I need to make the correction in CAR which is the alternative UOM.
As i know there is a SAP not that allows the posting at UD to be done in alternative unit of measure so I am asking if there is any similar solution for QAC1?
I need that urgently and Thanks in advance

How to make system consider Alternative unit of measure while creating BOM?

Dear Experts,
When creating a BOM, how do I make the system consider the alternative unit of measure if at the point of creating the BOM, I decide to use the component material alternative unit of measure? The scenario is as follows:
Header
Material code is TK677, Base Unit of Measure is Litres.
Components:
Material code is RT677, Base Unit of measure is Litres.
Material code is RV677, Base Unit of measure is Kilogram.
When formulation is done in the laboratory, the components are weighed and measured in percentage weight. For example, 20% for first component (RT677) and 80% (RV677) for the second component.
To depict this, I maintain an alternative unit of measure of Kg in the Material Master of RT677, and maintain the conversion factor (100kg = 116Litres) so as to enable me use Kg as unit of measure for material RT677 when creating the BOM.
When creating the BOM, I enter Kg as unit of measure for material RT677, but gets the system error message ''Unit of measure KG not supported for material RT677 in plant NG00
Message no. 29175''
What do i need to do as I have already maintained Kg as alternative unit of measure? or which other better way should i handle this issue?

Thanks a lot for your reply, it worked, it allowed me to create the BOM using Kg for component RT677. But the new challenge i am now facing is that when I try to create a process order copyiing this BOM, it gives me the same unit (Kg) for component RT677 whose base unit of measure is Litres.
I actually want the process order to copy the BOM and use Litres for component RT677 based on the conversion factor which I have maintained in the Additional Data window of the material master.
The reason is that, the formulation done in the lab is measured in percentage weight, but this component weight is now scaled up to Litres when the component is pumped into the Blending Vessels as specified in their Blending Instruction.
Please how do I ensure that when the master recipe is copied during creation of the Process Order, that the unit of measure will be the base unit of measure (Litres) despite the fact that I have used the alternative unit of measure (Kg) for this component during creation of the BOM.
Thanks

Adding Alternative Unit of measure as part of attributte of material

Hi gurus,
In our source system each material has alternative unit of measure which contain info on converting the base unit of measure (CAR) to MT and PAL.
I need to add this info as part of material attribute
e.g.
Material "A" 10CART = 1 PAL & 100CART = 1MT
This information captured in MM table "MARM" with material code as the
As part of 0MATERIAL_ATTR , i need to have additional field that capture the info as below
CARTPAL = 0.1 (1/10)
CARTMT = 0.01 (1/100)
Please help to advice on how to enhance the extractor to cater the above requirement.
Your help highly appreciated
Thank you

hi,
According to me you can enhance the 0Material_attr to bring the required information from ECC.
But before enhancing anything ask func consultant or business below ques.
1) will these unit entry will get created in MARM for any material at the creation of material or it will get updated later on
2) will this unit value get change for any material during its entire life
If any of above que ans is yes then how wud u manage in transaction data if unit get changed.
For that u need to apply feedback concept in transaction dso.

Alternative unit of Measure for variant material

Dear All,
Here is an interesting scenario,
There is a naterial Billet with two variant characteristics length and size. and base unit of measure is TON. Now alternative unit of measure is PCS. How can define the conversion factor on the basis of these two variant characteristics.
In normal material (without variant char.)
we can define conversion factor 1PCS= 2TON
For variant material,
For the material Billet with variant charc length and size how can i define conversion
so that system calculates diff. PCS with diff. length and size but material is same. So how can i Do that.
for example for same material Billet but variant char. Length is 6 M and size is 120*120 ,its wt will be 2 TON for 1 PCS.
for the same material Billet with variant char. length 12 M and size 120*120, its wt will be 12TON for 1 PCS.
How can i cater this for the same material.

Hi Shoaib,
We have faced the similar scenario for steel industry. Based on my experience, it is not possible to define variable values for Alternative UOM conversion with the variant characteristic/configuration, specially if you want SAP to maintain inventory with variable conversion rate.
Use the Batch specific unit of measure for this situation.
1) Create batch specific UOM i.e. Ton_per_pc (TOP) --- User proportional unit conversion
2) Create batch characteristic ton_per_pc and assigned UOm.
3) In material master additonal data select proportion unit and enter the standard conversion rate between ton & pcs.
4) While doing GR - In batch creation you can enter whatever the conversion rate is and Inventory will be updated accordingly.

Ravi.

Mass upload of Alternative unit of measure using MASS

Hi All,
Can some one guide me how to upload alternative unit of measure using MASS Transaction - can you elaborate like fields to be considered also, as I am trying using MM17 but could not go further.
Thanks,
Vengal Rao.

it is possible to create alternative units using MM17. But I would not use the word upload in that matter, as you cannot upload from an external file.
start MM17-
select table MARM and execute
you see 2 tabs,
you are at the Change record tab, please set indicator for do not change existing data, then go to the creation tab
enter the material number and the alternative unit you want add .
then execute
Now you see your material number, the new unit and the material description
click the icon for field selection and add the field nominator and denominator (and all other fields where you usually enter data) to your shown fields.
enter the value of your choice and save.
if you want add the same value for nominator and denominator to all the materials listed, then enter the value in the fields that are listed above the listed materials. then click the header title above all fields that shall be distributed followed by the mass change button. Finally press save button.
