how often a material is to be counted is defined in customizing of your ABC cycle count indicators and its assignment to the material master.
at which day the material is due for counting depends on last count date for this material (or creation date of material master accounting view if no last count date is available).
and last but not least it is the user who decides for which period (from and to date) he want create inventory documents with MICN
for example, just enter a from date of today and a to date December 31st 2011, and SAP will show you all materials that are due to be counted in that period with the proposed counting date.

Really sorry to hear about this, particularly when you're putting your life on the line. But Apple cannot track your iPhone in any way unless you had set up Find My iPhone prior to it being lifted.
It's possible that AT&T might be able to do something, but it's probably that they cannot track it, or will not without a request from an authorized law enforcement agency, but rather would only disable the device. You'll have to try and find a way to contact AT&T directly and ask if they can do anything to help you; the chances of any AT&T employee in a position to help you spotting this thread it pretty small.
Good luck, stay safe, and come home soon.

[Solved] Recommend a package with pacman for "Command Not Found"

Is there a way to get Pacman to recommend a package name like in ubuntu, for example:
If I were to type in a terminal ifconfig and it said "Command not found"
Could Pacman recommend the package net-tools?

"Always open with" option for VLC not working

I like to open my .avi files with VLC, but the default is set to Quicktime. So when I right click a .avi file and choose open with, then change the default settings by clicking on 'always open with' and then selecting VLC, it opens with VLC, but the next time I try to open the file, the default application is still Quicktime and it opens in Quicktime.
It's getting frustrating
Didn't have this problem with 10.5.
Thanks.

Somehow certain file types will no longer work with this method, the only software update recently having been the one for Safari 4.0.5. After I did that update, almost all of the file types that I use "Open With... >Change All..." get kicked from QT 7 (what I select) to QT Launcher, which launches any video file in QT X.

Post with clearing for inter module generated transactions

Hi gurus,
can we post creditnote in f-30 and clear the outstanding billing documents(SD) of the customer. Eg: if we poste credit note for Rs.5000 and can we clear some other billing documents worth Rs.15000/- against the credit entry passed in FI ie either in fb75 or f-30 etc...
pls thro some light on the issue

Dear Bharath,
still iam not very clear, i will explain you with scenario,
there is a client requiremt is that, they dont want to pass credit memo throu vf01, he want to issue credit notes only thour fb75 or f-30 with celaring option.
if we pass any credit memo in fi directly throu either fb75 or f-30 against any outstanding sales invoice(RV type), it is not clearing immediately where as the net amount of outstanding is coming down, it will create number of line items. even after doing partial or residual payments also, the line items are not celaring from open items.
guide me if possible

IDOCS for GOA not generated in ECC.

Hi Friends,
In our development systm we have configured the GOA functionality. Now we have moved to Quality system.
I have maintained all the partner profiles and distribution model as required in std settings and similar to the development system and checked all the connection. It all seems to be fine in both SRM & ECC systems. Also identical number doc types & ranges exists in the 2 systems.
But when I release a GOA from SRM I do not find any trace. Following are the symptoms.
SRM - RZ20 - No Error.
SRM SLG1 - No error.
ECC - RZ20 - No Error.
ECC - SLG1 - No error.
SRM - SWi1 workflow task is completed.
GOA status - Released - In Distribution.
In ECC contract is not created.
In WE02 /ECC there is NO node for BLAORD & COND_A under the Inbound Idocs.
What can be the possible issue under these circumstances. Please suggest how can I trace the error.
Thanks in Advance
Hussain Wagh

Remote Logon is working fine both ways.
About distribution model what I did is create a message type in SRM for BLAREL. Then I created a message type in ECC for BLAORD + COND_A. I generated partner profiles and then tried to distribute it so that it creates a similar model in SRM too. While doing this I got error that view for BLAREL already exists in destination (SRM side).
So I deleted the BLAREL model view in SRM and then tried again to distribute from ECC. Only then it created a message types in SRM too. I.e I created the complete distribution model in ECC side and distributed to SRM.
Is my method correct.

Hussain

ABC analysis for Cycle Counting.

Hi SAP gurus,
I am facing a problem from the user. While doing the ABC analysis for cycle counting using the Transaction MIBC, he is getting an error " table T159c is not maintained for plant XXXX". when i checked it SPRO cycle counting is not done for that particular plant.
My question is : Where do we maintainc CC Physical inv indicator ? I have checked at material level in Gen.Plant/Sloc view, it is not maintained . so may be they have maintained at Plant level. where do we maintain at plant level.?

Hi
1) Maintain the Percentages against A,B,C,D cycle counting indicators in OMCO
2) Perform MICN to schedlue the batch input session for Creation of physical Inventory documents
3) MIBC-For ABC analysis for Cycle counting .
Note : the percentages maintained in OMCO will decide on the classification of the material as to when the Physical inventory needs to be done based on either the consumtion values/Requirement values

Transaction MIBC-- ABC Analysis for Cycle Counting - Physical Inventory

Dear Friends,
Could you please explain me the cycle count indicator relationship to the percentage of inventory to be counted.
When i am using MIBC transaction and changing the Percentages....based on percentages the system is proposing the new cycle count indicators for the materials.
Thanks in advance
Sanjay

Dear Sanjay,
I would recommend you to write your question into the ERP - Logistics Materials Management (MM) topic. I suppose you will get more information about MIBC there.

ABC Cycle Counting Process Steps

We currently want to switch our Cycle Counting by Bin location to ABC Cycle Counting. We want the system automatically generate a list of materials to count daily based on there ABC indicator.
Our Current Process Steps are as follows:
Step 1: LX 26 - Select Items for cycle count
Step 2: LI04 Print the Count sheets
Step 3: LI11N Enter the results
Step 4: LX17 View variance
Step 5: LI14 Create recounts
Step 6: LI04 Print the recount sheets
Step 7: LI11N Enter the results
Step 8: LX17 View variance
Step 9: LI20 Accept Counts & Clear Differences WM
Step 10: ZLI21 Accept Counts & Clear Differences IM
But when we switch to ABC Cycle counting we can't do the LX26 because that is when you select the bins you want to count. We need the process steps if we use the system to generate the kick off. Any ideas?
Linda

1. It is a CO problem - I think your error message is KI235. However you may face this problem if settings are ok but you do not do things properly in IM/WM bookings. Please check these links:
Re: OKB9
Account 5248654 requires an assignment to a CO object---Message no. KI235
Please describe step-by-step (with trx codes) what you did and in which step you get the error message.
2.
WM bookings will "never" consume you components (or maybe because a bug...). If you want to consume the components you have to post GI with reference to your PrdOrd (CO11N, CO15, CO27, MIGO, MB1A).
If you did a booking with mvt 261 in MB1A by mistake, do the reverse booking by mvt 262. That's all.
If you cannot solve your issue please clarify your problem, step-by-step...

ABC CYCLE COUNT

We want to Cycle Count using the ABC method and base it on material cost
A parts - over 12K (count once a month)
B Parts - between $500 and 12K (count once a quarter)
C Parts - under 5K count (count once a year)
We cycle count every day.
Do all the materials need to have there own bin location? We want to count 34 materials a day.
As 3
Bs 10
Cs 21
34 Materials a day to cover all of our parts the way we want to count them.
Our bins have several mixed parts in them so if I count A part it may be in 3 different locations. I was told you not only have to count all 3 parts but all parts that are in that same bin even if it is not in the cycle count. This can't be right.
Tell me there has been a fix if this is the case.
Thanks

For cycle count, system will automatically select and proposed to you the material number to be counted into a physical inventory document based on the config you specified for the ABC indicator. Based on the material number proposed by the the system (plant , storage location,with/without bin location) you then perform the physical inventory count.
Could you reorganised your question so that people understand what exactly u r asking.
best regards,
Eric.

Can standard program RMCBIN00 calculate cycle count for 2 years?

Hi Experts,
Can any one clarify my doubt.
The calculation of cycle counting period to be two (2) years rather than the one (1) year that standard SAP uses. The cycle count indicators that determine the frequency of the counts for each material need to be used in conjunction with the 2 year cycle. Is standard RMCBIN00 calculate for Two year cycle count??
Moderator message: not directly related to ABAP development, please have a look in the respective functional forum.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Apr 5, 2011 4:14 PM

Hello,
You can do cycle counting with Rf transaction LM59 for the serialised material.
1.My experience says when you have HUM activated then to track material HU & serialisation profile works together.
2.You can do cycle counting of serailised & non serialsed material through Rf gun but clearance of this material will be issue. You may have to create one more transaction to clear the difference of serialised materials like LI20
Hope this input helps.

Cycle count inventory

Hi everybody,
When doing a cycle count via tx LX26, the following error appears:
"CC inventory not prepared in IM
Message no. L4173"
I've read some threads regarding this item, and what I have done is the following:
OMNK - activate cycle counting for my warehouse and storage types.
ommb - for number ranges
IMG > Logistics Execution > Warehouse Management > Activities > Physical Inventory > Dynamic Cycle Counting > General Settings > Define Storage Type Settings
omco
article master data (when using mibc all articles appear with the cc indicater filled)
I think I have everything correctly configured and there is no stp missing, but the reality is that I am not able to perform the cycle count.
Any idea?
Thanks

Have you made material master settings ?
Marking Materials for Cycle Counting
This step is only required if you perform cycle counting for the first time or if you want to update the cycle counting indicators.
In the material master record (storage data), maintain the cycle counting indicator for all the materials that are to be included in cycle counting.
You can set the indicator in one of the following two ways:
manually in the material master record. To do this, choose Material ® Change from the Material Master menu.
automatically using ABC analysis To do this, choose Special procedures ® Cycle counting ® Set CC indicator from the Physical Inventory menu.

Cycle counting process

Hi all,
Could you please some good link/ notes about cycle counting process.
Sruthi

Hi, Please go through the following.
Cycle counting is a method of physical inventory whereby inventory is counted at regular intervals within a fiscal year. These intervals depend on the cycle counting indicator set for the material.
Cycle Counting allows you to count fast-moving items more frequently than slow-moving items, for example.
General Procedure
Mark all materials that are to be included in cycle counting with a cycle counting indicator in the material master record (storage data). The cycle counting indicator is used to group the materials together into various cycle counting categories (for example, A, B, C, and D). In Customizing for Inventory Management, you can define for each category the time intervals at which the materials are to be counted.
You can use the program ABC Cycle Counting Analysis (RMCBIN00) to perform an analysis. In this analysis, the system assigns the materials to the individual categories according to consumption or requirements. You can also specify whether this analysis is to consider only the materials with cycle counting indicator or all materials. The cycle counting indicator in the material master records can be updated automatically by this program.
For the planning of cycle counting, run the program Create physical inventory documents for cycle counting (RM07ICN1). This program checks all cycle counting materials to determine whether a physical inventory is due to be carried out.
You can create physical inventory documents for the following stock types, as well as unrestricted-use stock (stock type 1):
quality inspection stock
blocked stock
The system calculates the planned count date for all stock types as folllows:
Date of last physical inventory of unrestricted-use stock + predefined interval
If a material needs to be counted, use the program to create a batch input session for creating physical inventory documents. To create the physical inventory documents, process the batch input session .
When the inventory differences are posted, the actual count date is recorded in the physical inventory data of the material as the date of the last physical inventory.

Marking Materials for Cycle Counting
This step is only required if you perform cycle counting for the first time or if you want to update the cycle counting indicators.
In the material master record (storage data), maintain the cycle counting indicator for all the materials that are to be included in cycle counting.
You can set the indicator in one of the following two ways:
manually in the material master record. To do this, choose Material ® Change from the Material Master menu.
automatically using ABC analysis To do this, choose Special procedures ® Cycle counting ® Set CC indicator from the Physical Inventory menu.
Creating Physical Inventory Documents for Cycle Counting
From the Physical Inventory menu, select Special procedures ® Cycle counting ® Create physical inventory documents.
Enter the data required.
Carry out the evaluation.
Choose Edit ® Generate session to create the batch input session.
Select System ® Services ® Batch input ® Edit from the menu to process the session.
Carry out the physical inventory for the physical inventory documents created.

Cycle count procedure

Hi,
The below is the issue my user asking for.
there are B items are to be counted 6 times a year (Once every two months)..
For example:
If plant A has 1000 B items then 500 should be counted in month one and 500 should be counted in month 2.
However, it seems that all the B movers are in the same month thus the cycle count is for ALL items.
User asking why all items fall inonr month when he creates phy.inv docs in MICN.
Please help.

Hi
Cycle counting is a method of physical inventory whereby material is inventoried at regular intervals within a fiscal year. These intervals or cycles depend on the cycle counting indicator set for the material.
Cycle counting allows fast-moving items to be counted more frequently than slow-moving items, for example.
All materials to be included in the cycle counting inventory are flagged. This is done either manually, using a cycle counting indicator in the material master record (storage data), or automatically, by means of an ABC analysis. The cycle counting indicator allows you to classify materials into individual cycle counting categories (for example: A, B, C, D) In Customizing, you can set for each category how often the materials are inventoried.
You can flag materials that are to be included in cycle counting as follows:
Manually in the material master record (storage data)
Automatically using ABC analysis.
      You can use program RMCBIN00 to carry out an ABC analysis, which assigns materials to each category according to consumption or requirements. You can choose whether the analysis should only include materials with cycle counting indicators or all materials. The cycle counting indicator can be automatically updated in ABC analysis.
To plan the cycle counting inventories, start the RM07ICN1 cycle counting program at regular intervals. This program checks the due dates for inventories for all cycle counting materials.
If it is time for an inventory for a certain material, use the program to create a batch input session to create physical inventory documents. Physical inventory documents are only created for stock type 1 (unrestricted use). The planned inventory count date is calculated as follows:
        Date of last inventory + pre-defined interval
The interval between inventories for each cycle counting indicator is set in Customizing.
Use the batch input session to create the physical inventory documents.
Now you can carry out the inventory. When the difference is posted, the actual inventory count date is recorded in the material inventory data as the date of the last inventory.

Cycle Count in MM

Dear All,
If my client wanted to setup the cycle count (MM) with A, B, C and D indicator, what would be the best way to perform the test? I can't afford to wait for months to perform the test.
E.g.
Plant     CC Indc.    Interval
0001          A            6
0002          B            3
0003          C            1
Material M1 - CC Indc. = "B"
Another questions are:
1. How do I distribute the Percentage for each CC Indc.? As far as I know, it cannot be more than 100%
    right?
2. Can I set more/less than 4 indicators (Standard: A,B,C,D) as long as the percentage is still 100%?
3. Assuming that the material M1 is using "B" (CC Indc),
    a. Will the system auto-trigger/create the physical inventory document for the relevant materials or the
        user still needs to manually create the physical inventory document?
    b. If the document is not auto-created, is there anyway to set it with auto-creation?
    c. If the document is auto-created, will there be a chance to change the planned count date?
Appreciated for your helps.
Thank you.
Warmest Regards,
Edwin Fu

If my client wanted to setup the cycle count (MM) with A, B, C and D indicator, what would be the best way to perform the test? I can't afford to wait for months to perform the test.
Read OSS note 518418, it describes how the system selects mateials to be counted. Based on that you will know what you have to manipulate to do a good test.
Anyhow, if you enter a wide inventory period e.g. 09.Jan - 31. Dec., then SAP should as well be able to give you a wide variety of materials to be counted.
1. How do I distribute the Percentage for each CC Indc.? As far as I know, it cannot be more than 100%
right?
yes 100 % is the limit.
2. Can I set more/less than 4 indicators (Standard: A,B,C,D) as long as the percentage is still 100%?
yes
3. Assuming that the material M1 is using "B" (CC Indc),
a. Will the system auto-trigger/create the physical inventory document for the relevant materials or the
user still needs to manually create the physical inventory document?
No. User has to start the PID creation. This is usually done manually, as you have to organize many things before you actually can do the technical part in SAP. (Especially you have to inform all people who are doing movements that they have to enter everythig what was moved has to be entered before the invetory document gets created, for that reason I would never let the system create the document by its own with a scheduled job.
b. If the document is not auto-created, is there anyway to set it with auto-creation?
You can schedule the creation, but see my comment above
c. If the document is auto-created, will there be a chance to change the planned count date?
For what reason? Maybe because you dont have time to count? Thats why I recommend to create the documents by user interaction.
