Date variance

hi,
when doing inbound delivery of a PO item what does the message " acknowledgement for PO item has date variance" mean.
how to solve this.
best regards

Hi,
You are trying to create an inbound delivery ,before that is mentioned in PO.
In PO,Item details, under the tab Confirmations, check what date u have entered for the inbound delivery.
System doesnt allow to create inbound delivery on any day, that is before that mentioned in PO.
Try to change the date, that mentioned in PO to today, and create the inbound delivery then.

Qty and Date Variance using Purchasing InfoCube

Using Purchasing Cube, I want to find out the Qty Variance and Date variance,
Iu2019m calculating these using GR Posting date and Requested Delivery Date and GR Qty and Qty in UoM.
Iu2019ve the following doubts:
1.     In order to calculate the Variance, do we need to filter the data pertaining to any particular BW Transaction Key (0PROCESSKEY) since we donu2019t want Goods Issues (can be Purchase Returns or intra company Stock Transfers ), If so what are the values for the Process Key to be considered for filter.
2.     Though the Qty key figure matches the Requested Qty, the PO status is u2018Openu2019. What could be the possible reasons?
3.     The qty. and days variance for the POs already received can be calculated. But what should be done incase of POs for which Goods are not yet received? Again in that scenario, we can have two cases: Delivery Past Due and Delivery Date in Future. How to tackle these 2 cases. As per our Requirement, we have to calculate the difference between System date and Requested Delivery Date incase of Past Delivery Date so that we can have the variance as of System Date. Like If the Delivery Date is 25th Nov, if we run the Query on 28th, it should show 3 days late and if run on 29th, it has to be 4 days if still undelivered. Please give me the code to be written in Transformations.
We have not yet decided what has to be done in the second case i.e. Future Delivery Date. Please guide me what is the best option in that case.
Thanks,
Aryaman

You need to add Z-Keyfigures and then write Routines based on Process Keys in Update Rules/Transformations and filter the required Process Keys, you need to find required Process Keys in ECC, SPRO-->Reference IMG an dthen search for BW Transactional Key and see it disuss with MM FUnctional COnsultant and Identify it.
2. Though the Qty key figure matches the Requested Qty, the PO status is u2018Openu2019. What could be the possible reasons?
I faced the problem with 2LIS_02_* datasources so I created new generic data source and used it. Just take only one record with that you track in ECC. You must take MM Consultants help, they will guide you.

Once you have Qty and Dates from Transactional Data then it is easy to calculate the Date Varience and Qty varience, see the follwoing URL it is having one article How to Calculate Meterial Aging whcih will give how to calculate the differnce..

Acknowledgment for PO item 4570051408 00010 contains date variance

Hi Exerts,
We are doing stock transfer from one plant to another plant in different location using outbound and inbound process.
we are created outbound delivery by providing batch numbers and processed PGI, but while creating inbound delivery we are facing some proble.
i went to MB0A and checked VIA handling unit and given delivery number after all while saving it is throwing error " Acknowledgment for PO item 4570051408 00010 contains date variance " please let me know why this error is coming, who to resolve this.
Also needs step by step process of STO with outbound and Inbound process.
This will helps me lot
Thanks
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,
   I saw that your problem was not answered and thought of posting a reply. Acknowledgement for PO item XXXXXXXXX occurs due to the mismatch between Deliv. Date in Purchase Order and the Posting Date.
    For Example, If the required delivery date for the Purchase Order is 08/31/2010 and the posting occurs on 09/01/2010 through IDOC, then you will be seeing this error.
   Change Purchase Order ( TCode ME22N) - modify required delivery date to the date on which you are posting 09/01/2010 (for example) and save it. Reprocess the IDOC in error (Tcode BD87) and post it. Verify the stock and ensure that it has been posted.
   Hope this Helps.

LIV: Invoice Block ST Date Variance

Good Morning Gurus'
Question about configuration of invoice block ST for Date Variance.
The definition states that the system calculates for each item the product of amount * (scheduled delivery date- invoice entered) and compares this product with the absolute upper limit defined. This allows relatively hugh schedule variances for invoice items for small amounts, but only small schedule variances for invoice items for large amounts.
The current configuration is to check limit Val. 100.00.
I don't understand what this setting means much less why it is a dollar value. I thought this was about number of days?
Please help me understand what this means.
Thank you

AMS,
Try this,
Its in this perspective, a company as a policy, might not want to allow payments in excess of say $100, paid before the planned delivery date for any vendor.
Typically, no one wants to pay the vendors earlier than required, but due to administrative costs in invoice verification, you would allow invoices will small payments, that is how this amount - tolerance amount is derived, its by policy and the business scenario dependent.
If that would be a case, any payments, in excess of $ 100 will be blocked for review by the FI, so, to release on exceptional cases, or wait till the block gets released on its own.
Is this better?

How to use formulas to calculate data variance?

Hi!
I tried to use the variance formula to calculate the data variance but the answer is always wrong. I've tried this on excel and I get the right answer. Is it possible that there is a bug with NUMBERS? coz the sample variance should be the sum of the squared differences between each observation and the sample mean divided by the sample size, n, minus 1. but what i always get is the population variance, which is the sum of the squared differences bewteen each observation and the population mean divided by the population size,N. and I have no idea what should I input in the two blanks which will be showed in the following pic.
Thank you!

Hi Kenny,
Apple provides an excellent manual, the iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide, which lists, describes, and gives one or more example for using each of the 250+ functions supported by Numbers.
The entry for VAR includes the following:
Usage Notes
The VAR function finds the sample (unbiased) variance by dividing the sum of the
squares of the deviations of the data points by one less than the number of values.
Here are the results of a small test.
Sample data is in cells B2:B6.
The result of the VAR function calculation (=VAR(B2:B6) is shown in B10.
The rest of the table shows a stepp by step calculation of the Variance of the sample:
B8 shows the mean, calculates with =AVERAGE(B2:B6)
C2:C6 show the deviation of each value in B from the mean.
D2:D6 show the square of that deviation.
D10 shows the sum of D2:D6,
And E10 shows that sum divided by one less than the number of values in the sample, which, you'll note, agrees with the result obtained with VAR.
"I've tried this on excel and I get the right answer."
I fired up the Windows netbook, launched Excel and plugged in the same set of sample data and the same =VAR(B2:B6) formula, and got the same result, 467.5.
And =VARP(B2:B6), using the same sample data set, gave identical results ( 374) on both Numbers and Excel.
If there's an issue, it's not showing up here.
If you'd like me to try it with a larger data set, you could send me your numbers. My address is available by clicking my name above this post.
"I have no idea what should I input in the two blanks which will be showed in the following pic."
num-date indicates a Number or Date (and Time) value may be used. Individual values should be separated by commas (except in regions where the comma is the decimal separator.
For VAR, a range of cells may be referenced, as I've done above.

Barry

Vendor Evaluation Standardizing Delivery Date Variance

Hi,
We are determining what the settings should be for On-Time Delivery and Quantity Reliability under Vendor Evaluation. I understand how the formual works when it determines the scores for these. Can someone tell me from a business process perspective what Standardizing Delivery Date Variance relates to?
Ours has been set to 100 which is 100 days with the scores set as:
Percentage
Score
0
100
10
90
20
95
100
80
200
60
300
40.......
When we pick 100 days, is that supposed to be an average of how many days late goods receipts are? Or is there another way to look at it?
Thanks
Beverly

Have you really read the documentation and the F1 field help, or any of our blogs, documents and wikis here in SCN?
The table that you presented above is far a way from reality. a percentage can go from blank to 99.9 and your from -99.9 to blank
this is to cover both situations early deliveries and late deliveries
the Standard Delivery Date Variance means the it is the maximum number of days a vendor can be late or early to the wanted delivery date, if this value is reached, then he just missed the point in the sense of the word. he does not get any single point for his performance.
You have to ask your business how much days variance they accept before they cancel the order, or at least looking for a new vendor with the next order.
From our point of view everything beyond a week is not at all acceptable and results in a total miss
and in this case you do not need many percentages either in a 5 working day week each day corresponds to 20%

Standard Delivery Date Variance

Hi,
I am doing vendor evaluation. I want to set Minimum Delivery Percentage and Standard Delivery Date Variance for all materials. I know about purchasing value key setting. then i have to maintain for each material.
My requirement is that I have to set Minimum Delivery Percentage as 20% for all materials and Standard Delivery Date Variance for vendors as 30 days. Where can i set this?
rewards assured.
regards
NBanu

Hi,
If you know about the Purchasing Value Key then what is the issue?
Simply create one Purchasing Value Key and maintain the Minimum Delivery % as 20% and Standard Delivery Time Variance as 30 days and then maintain this Purchase Value Key in "Purchasing" view of all the Materials.
If you want to do mass maintenance then use transaction MM17
And to create Purchasing Value Key, go to SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Material Master > Define Purchasing Value Key

Tolerance Limits with Date and quantity

Hi Experts,
We would like to set the GR Tolerance Limits with Date and qty.
how to set the Tolerance Limits for Date and quantity..??
if we created PO 100qty and date 01-05-009.
if we receive the goods on 20-04-2009 and 50qty...
For GR .. Migo should be give error message..
where can i set this Tolerance Limit Configuration.... can u please explin me..
Thanks in Advance,
Anthyodaya .

Go to SPRO - Material Managemetn - LIV - Invoice Block - Set Tolerence limit.
USe company code and maintain a value for ST
ST: Date variance (value x days)
The system calculates for each item the product of amount * (scheduled delivery date - date invoice entered) and compares this product with the absolute upper limit defined. This allows relatively high schedule variances for invoice items for small amounts, but only small schedule variances for invoice items for large amounts.

In table rows , i need to check the date validation of perivous ent'd rows

Hi All,
I'm using adf 11g.
I have a table with add and delete button in jsff. In jsff page , i mean table row have one lov column and date column and enterable inputtext fields .
Conditions 1.lov value , date column and inputext value should be unique . this can be handled by alternate key.
2. if user enters value like
lov value date inputtext
v1 01/02/2011 ipt1
v2 01/02/2011 ipt2
v1 01/01/2011 ipt3 here , lov selected v1 is already selected in first row, i want to validate dat second occurance of v1 with combination date and inputtext should be
unique --- it makes unique with compare to first row .but i have to check second v1 date should be always greater than the first v1's date .
User can add n number of records of keeping date variance , but the same lov value having record , the date should be always less than the perivouse entered row date (same lov value ).
how can i handle this date check . business rules / validation .
thanks in advance .
