Creation of PRs for materials in stock

Hi,
When i run MRP for a finished product, many PRs are created for raw materials in stock also. Why this is happening?.Is this because of planning strategy in MD02 .We are using planning strategy 20.Pls suggest a way to stop creation of PRs for a material in stock.
regards
Ashok

Hi Ashok
Try Strategy - 40 VSF Planning with final assembly
Stocks on hand reduces the PIR during MRP run. e.g. if stock is 100 and PIR is 100, MRP run will not prompt 100 for procurement. if stock is 0 and PIR is 100, MRP run will prompt 100 for procurement.
This strategy should solve your problem. Just simulate this in ur test system and verify the results.

How to get serial numbers for materials in stock.

Dear all,
I need the table / FM from which i can get the serial numbers associated with a specific Material Doc Number.
Currently, I am going to mseg-> get MBLNR
Pass MSEG-MBLNR it to SER03 -> get Object List
Pass SER03-OBKNR to OBJK -> get serial numbers( SERNR )
As this is a long process and it will take time to execute , Please mention some alternatives by which we can get the desired result.
Thanking you in advance,
Shankar

Hi Shankar;
I am unaware of any function module, I searched for it high and low a few months ago... This website describes the process of getting the serial numbers using WM if it is of any help to you...

Design the New process set up for Materials in one physical stock plant

Hi Experts,
The requirement is one physical plant as two different logical plants in the system. The main issue is how to administrate or how to find the set up which allows one Physical warehouse in Hamburg which we have supplying two Logical warehouses in the system without having thru really physically separate the warehouses into two different ones. Materials physically will be only for one warehouse.
Requirement is for Design the New process set up for Materials in one physical stock serving plant into two different system plants.
Most of the things are pointing in the direction that order Backlogs will not be converted into new organization. We have backlogs for the material requirements for purchase orders, sales orders whatever we have in the current setup; then there will have all are new orders from the certain dates taking in the new organization set up. These backlogs are very long at least three to four years.
We would like to find some way to have the all the material requirements ending up in one basket instead of two baskets. That still be able to deliver at least in system point of view from two different baskets.
We need to do analysis on one physical stock serving plant into two different system plants that could be done either by material master data or as i understood that could be from PS side.
can any one please tell me how we can maintian this setup in the system.
Please provide your valuable inputs.
Brgds,

RK,
Sorry, the creation of such an end-to-end solution is outside the scope of an online forum. Most consulting companies would send a multi-disciplinary team to perform this task, and would take several weeks to research your requirements, and come up with a prototype.
Sales order availability checking is described in SAP online help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/93/744b51546011d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
I will say this. If your goal is to have two plants, with two company codes, and you wish to only procure or produce in one of the plants, then generally I would recommend using Special Procurement via Stock Transport Order (in standard SAP, Special Procurement 40). This based on a very small knowledge of your requirements. I have already cited the Sap online help for special procurement.
SAP online help for Warehouse management is at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/c6/f8386f4afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
As you begin to read the required topics, I am certain you will realize that this task is beyond the capability of an untrained person. I again suggest that you search for professional consulting services to assist you in this project. It will be money well spent.
I am now closing my responses to this thread. Good luck in your project!

Automatic Creation of MIGO for stock transfer order with movement type 351

I have used the BAPI - BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE_OIL to create the material document number. But the test ended with error "Goods movement not possible with mvmt type 351".
Is there any ways to eliminate the above error....
Friends need your help

351 Goods issue for a stock transport order (without SD)
The quantity is transferred from unrestricted-use stock in the issuing plant to stock in transit in the receiving plant.
Movement type 351 is only used if the goods issue is posted without an SD delivery. A goods issue for a stock transport order with SD delivery is posted using movement type 641 or 643.
The transfer posting is also possible for materials valuated separately.
The goods issue for a stock transport order takes place using movement type 101.
Possible special stock indicators: E, Q
For special stock indicators E and Q and for purchase orders assigned to an account, ensure that the quantity is not posted to the stock in transit in the receiving plant.

Materials in stock at u loc consider for Availability check but not for MRP

Dear ALL,
Please solved the problem by settings in the customizing we are able to set the materials at stock U location (serviceable )should not be considered in Mat Availability for PM orders
Settings we have made for all storage locations in U * By excluding storage location stock from MRP
If storage location stock is excluded from MRP at plant level, no receipts for this storage location will be created in the planning run.
so we are able to run the availability check perfectly
But now MM dept.is not accepting this as they want this stock to be considered for MRP
Has anybody done this scenrio successfully please reply the solution
Regards
Pratap

A way that I think of, is to set the ATP at SL level, so in PM order you check only in a specific location, not in all the plant.
Of course that you need to let all SLs to be relevant for MRP, otherwise this stock is not considered for planning.

Hi,
Some of the companies are having a practice of paying payables with the rounding off rules. This rounding of in India could be from Rs.0.01 to Rs.10.00. For examble, there is a payable amount of Rs.125125.25 this can be rounded off to Rs.125125.00 or Rs.125130.00 while making payment. The balance amount should hit the rounding off difference account.
The same things is applicable for receivables also.
Over/under payment GL can be configured by using T Code OBXL
There is an another use, for details see the below link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/01/a9b9a6455711d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
There may be some more reason where you need to do this configuration,
Disc. difference
Incorrect cash discount rate
To be paid without deduction
Credit memo without backdated cash disct
Cash discount period exceeded
Reduction without doc.number allocation
Incomplete payment advice note
Payment amount is different
Debit reduced not paid
Debit reduced not paid
Reduced twice
Paid not reduced
Damaged goods - disputed
Goods damaged during transport
Quant.delivered not same as order quant.
Freight charges not paid
Miscellaneous deductions
Price variances - disputed
Partial payment
Returns
Residual item creation
Trade Promotion
Payment differences on debit side
Hope it clears your doubt.

Automatic STO for materials with split valuation

Hey Gurus,
Our client uses plant-to-plant STO to do transfers among internal plants. The current process: Run MRP in receiving plants --> MRP generates PReq --> Release PReq --> Assign Preq and create STO(from here, buyers manually check stock at issuing plant to see if there are "New" or "Rebuild" stock available, Rebuild stock always take the priority. Buyers manually assign Rebuild or New to ME21N).
The client tries to automate the STO process, ie, using ME59 or ME59N instead of ME21N. The problem is how the system does stock check and automatically enters"Rebuild" or "New" for materials with Split Valuation, which are done by buyers manually?
Thanks
JM

Hello,
Your client's request can be met with an user exit i guess. I have not used this but this is a suggestion that you can try if you wish.
The following things need to be done.
1. New PR type needs to be created and assinged to the STO document type.
2. When running a MRP at receiving plant, the system uses the special procurement key to create the STO requisition, hence we can write the relevant code in user exit in the MRP program. (please find the user exit for MD01)
3. If the special procurement key is 40 in the material master (MRP view), then system has to create the PR using the new PR type for STO. Also for those PRs the default batch should be "Rebuilt" entered while creating the PR.
4. As the batch is already entered in the PR, converting them to PO automatically will not be an issue.
if you feel that the above solution is little tough to implement, then please write a program to fetch the STO PRs and update the PRs one by one using the BAPI PR update or BDC with the batch "Rebuilt". This program you can ask the users to run before using ME59.

Sakthi

MB5L Report Discrepacy for Material and Stock Account Currency

I have found in the MB Report Discrepancy for Material and Stock Account Currency. Why is this happening? Why is there a variance between total price in materials and stock account? Anyone please help me. I'm abaper but now been pushed to do logistic. I need help for this issue.

Hi,
Here's some information from help. Variances can occur for the following reasons:
You have entered postings to the stock account manually.
The stock account includes not only stock postings, but also other postings. In this case, you should check the account determination in the Customizing for Valuation and Account Assignment. Make sure that the stock accounts are used solely for the transaction key BSX (stock postings).
Check Account Determination - OMWB
The account assignment for the stock accounts (transaction key BSX) was changed during productive operation; the respective stocks, however, were not deducted from the old account (movement type 562) and posted to the new one (movement type 561).

Calculation for subcontracting item of type N (non stock) as it for type L(Stock)

Hi Gurus,
I have a Requirement for calculating the cost for Subcontracting Non stock items N as it is getting calculated in standard functionality for subcontracting items of Type L.
This will be done in CK11n ( used to calculate the standard cost estimate of the product) for header as well as component materials.
please suggest the user exit or Badi where i can change.
Please refer the below logic-
BOM for the material 2000500 as Header and 1LPL0835298AB as a component and this component has an assembly with 7008508 as a component and this component is an Sub contracted item and this has an assembly with component 1LBA182151-3.
Price calculation for the material 7008508 (Item Category as N). Since this is sub contracted item the price will picked from field EINE-NETPR.
In EINA, pass the material (MATNR=7008508) to fetch the list of info records (INFNR) created for that material.
Then it has to input those info records to EINE table along with Purchasing organization (EINE-EKORG=PT02).
From the output of EINE table, it should compare the price (EINE-NETPR) of the PIR and should take the least price from those PIR`s.
If the currency is other than PLN, then it should be converted to PLN based on conversion charges.
For Material (MATNR=1LBA182151-3), it should pass the material number to table MBEW along with valuation area (BWKEY = WERKS).
From the output, it should check the Price control (VPRSV) ‘V’ or ‘S’
If ‘V’ the price will be picked from the field “VERPR”
If ‘S’ the price will be picked from the field “STPRS”
Also from the output, it should check the Price unit (PEINH) ‘1’ or other than ‘1’. If it is other than ‘1’ it should divide the VERPR or STPRS by PEINH. Then this is the price of the Material “1LBA182151-3”.
The material (MATNR=1LBA182151-3) should be passed to table “MARA” and will take the Base unit of measure from that table “MEINS”.

Goods Receipt for sales order stock

Hi everybody,
I want to receive materials for sales order stock. what I did:
1- Created a Purchase order,
2- Account Assignment = C
3- went to MIGO
4- selected PO number
5- set movement type 101 / E
the SAP give error message that you have not planned 101 / E !!!!
I searched alot but couldn\t find the solution.

Hi Dear,
When you use C account assignment category, System will consume those materials/services for the respective sales order at the time goods receipt/service confirmation. There is no inventory possible when we use, account assignment C as a standard, If you want to make inventorize, we have to choose account assignment category M against sales order.
When we are procuring material against project, Account assignment Q-will be inventoried and P-will be consumed for respective cost object
Like the same M-will be inventoried and C--will be consumed for respective cost object

MRP User Exit/BAdI for changing plant stock

Hi,
I have a client who is wanting to add consignment stock to plant stock during the MRP run for materials with a certain material group.
I need to find an exit or a BAdI which is called at an appropriate time to have a developer code this function.
Anyone have any ideas? I don't want to make changes to SAP Standard code!
Thanks,
Mark

Hi,
If am right, you want to consider the customer consignment stock in MRP, if yes then I believe the BADi -> MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA should meet your need.
I have not used this BADi, but check with your abaper if the method CHANGE_MDPSX_MARD reads the stock & then the unrestricted stock can be added with customer consignment stock from MSKU.
Check & revert if the above meets your need.

Vivek

Goods Issue Documentation for Text (Non-stock) Items

Hi all,
I have a business requirement to provide some form of shipping documentation for text (non-stock) items.
The business do not want to create material masters (NLAGs) for these items as they are different/one off purchases.
The purchase the goods and receipt with account assignment to a cost center or internal order, then sit on the inventory and send it out to customers along with real stock items.
Any ideas on how I can provide some kind of supporting documentation, whether that is a delivery note, or just a simple GI Slip?
Thanks,
Mark.

So they want to purchase items that they don't create materials for/don't get stocked yet want to include those items that don't really 'exist' in SAP on some for of documentation.
If these items go with real Deliveries then why not add them as text items to the Delivery ?

Vendor determination for Intra company stock transport order

Team,
We need the vendor and the partner function to be determined for intra company stock transport order.
I have create Vendor and assigned the vendor to the plant code. When i create scheduling agreement with LU , the vendor filed is not getting updated as the agreement is with supplying plant.
Is there any possibility that the vendor code and the partner functions can be populated to the Intra company stock transport order.
Regards
Gobinthan G

Hi,
To plant, you have to assign customer. Create a cutsomer and assign it to the plant through following path.
SPRO-> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase order - > Setup stock transport order - > Define shipping data for plants.
Then you assign delivery type and checking rule as per following path.
SPRO-> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase order - > Setup stock transport order - > Assign delivery types and checking rules. Here you can create the assignment of po document type with delivery doc type and checking rule.
The last step is to maintain the all sales views of the material you tranfer, both of the receiving and sending plant.
Now you will get the tab 'shipping' in the purchase order item details section.
For intra company transaction as you said, in the vendor master, relevent customer code has to be updated. This will make suitable updation in sales process in line with your scheduling agreement / purchase order.
Thanks,
Hari.
