Delivery and production staging

the scenario is to issue single pieces for delivery and complete pallets for production staging. how to achieve this?

You could create stock removal strategies based on movement types for picking and staging so that they pick from different st types.
I hope that this helps

VA01 change Delivery and Material Staging/Availability Date when vacation

Hi Gurus,
When I create a new order in VA01 for a day my company is on a period of vacation, I would like to change automatically the Material Staging/Availability Date and Delivery date to the last working day before vacations to avoid late deliveries.
I am trying to find the custo point where to do it, but I don't find it. Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you in advance.

Thanks Andy,
We maintain the factory calendar, so the problem is how the system is calculating this availability date.
For example, if we have a week of vacation and we get an order for Wednesday, the system calculates the first day after this vacation week as the day we can deliver the product. In our example would be on next Monday.
What we would like to do is that the system calculates as a delivery date the last working day before the vacation week, in our example would be on the previous Friday. So then we can avoid those late deliveries we are having now.
I don't know how or where to customize that.
I accept any suggestions.

Publish to Staging and Production from the Authoring server

Hi,
Is it possible to configure CQ in such a way that, when the user activate a content, it will be publish to the Staging server.
And then the user can trigger a workflow in the same authoring server, and send the content to the production server?
Or is there any other way round?
Basically the user does not want to login into multiple CQ instance.
Thanks

You would have to implement several things to allow this work:
You need replication agents for all the production publish servers and the staging servers. To simply your life you will probably want to set up your dispatcher agents on your publish and staging servers so you don't have to deal with them during the workflow.
You need to decide how you want the standard activation tools to behave (activate button, activate later, other possible workflows) behave. You have a couple of options:
Have the default activation behaviors publish to both environments
Have the default activation only publish to production publish
Have the default activation only publish to staging
Have the default activation do nothing
Based on that decision above you may have to check the Ignore Default option on the Triggers tab of the replication agents that shouldn't get anything on the standard publish.
Create a workflow process that will publish only to selected publish instances. Most likely this will be a step that only publishes to your Staging server, in which case you need some configuration mechansim which identifies which replication agents are staging agents.

Slow requests after swapping staging and production slots

Hi!
I'm sometimes experiencing an issue where swapping staging and production slots creates a first slow request on the production (and sometimes on the staging) URL. I thought the whole point of staged deployments were to eliminate slow requests after deployment.
When creating a simple Hello World Website a normal load time for the website could be 100ms, but after swapping it sometimes increases to over a second.
I also tested this with a bit more complex websites and the first request after swapping sometimes exceeds ten seconds, which I find unacceptable.
I am measuring the request times with my browser throughout the swapping process. The websites I tested this with were Standard Websites which had Always-On enabled. The staging slot was called before swapping.
Am I doing something wrong? Why are first requests sometimes so slow? Or is this normal behavior?
Thanks in advance for an answer!

I'm still able to reproduce the issue.
I just created a new Website (Web App) with the name swaptest and a staging slot named staging. Then I created a git repository in the staging slot and this is the repo I am always pushing to.
After that, I created a basic node.js Express app via the generator and pushed it towards the staging slot. After I loaded the site successfully on the staging slot (which sometimes takes a few seconds, but is fine since this is the warm up) I swap the slots
via the new portal. Most of my swaps were fine, however one of the swaps was slow again. See the screenshot for a very long request time (9 seconds). I already loaded the page once on the staging slot, so it should have been warmed up already.

Website: http://swaptest.azurewebsites.net/
Staging: http://swaptest-staging.azurewebsites.net/
Timeframe: Within the last 30 minutes.
Please let me know if you need more information,
Thanks,
Peter.

Awful Experience with Delivery and Installation of Appliances from BBY

I went to the Best But in College Park, MD on 02 March 2015 with the intention of buying an appliance suite (refrigerator, range, and dish washer). A sales associated assisted me promptly upon entering the store, and I let him know what I needed to purchase and that I would need delivery, installation, and haul away for all three items. He stated that the delivery, installation, and haul away was included with the price of all three items, and we scheduled my initial delivery date for 13 March 2015.
The evening before my delivery, 12 March 2015, I got a call from the Geek Squad giving me a three hour window they would be there to deliver and install my items. In going over the order with the representative I asked if the same crew dropping off the appliances would be installing the plumbing for the dishwasher. Contrary to what I was told in the store at the time of purchase, the representative on the phone notified me that a dishwasher installation was not sold to me and the following day the only thing the crew would be doing is dropping off the dishwasher. She then instructed me to call the store to see if there was any adjustments that could be made that would not change my delivery date the following day.
So, I call the store and explain what is going on to the representative in customer service. He instructs me that he cannot add the installation on to the order for the next day because the route has already been made and the warehouse told him its too late to change. So, instead he, in conjunction with his manager, said he can add the dishwasher install for a later date that I was available, but the delivery of the range and the refrigerator would remain for the following date. After about 45 minutes we work through the kinks and he lets me know he will call me back the following day to give me a solidified date and time that the dishwasher can be installed.
So, the following day comes and the time frame for my delivery and installation of the range and refrigerator comes and goes without hearing a word from Best But or the Geek Squad. So, I call customer service and the rep I'm speaking with lets me know that whatever the in-store rep did over the phone the following night put the entire order into reschedule and nothing would be delivered to me that day. Imagine my frustration because I've taken off from work to take possession of appliances that AREN'T GOING TO SHOW UP. Immediately, I hang up with customer service and go into the store where I originally purchased the appliances. I was told it did in fact get pushed into reschedule and my only option was to reschedule the delivery AGAIN. After working with both the rep and the General Manager in-store I was able to get the delivery rescheduled for 23 March 2015 with the dishwasher installation added to the order for free since it was an error caused by a Best Buy employee.
On 21 March 2015, I got the calls from the automated system giving me my three hour window the installers would be there on the 23rd of March to install my items. On 23 March 2015, the crew with the refrigerator and the range showed up first. They asked me to come to the truck upon arrival because there was some issue with the refrigerator and they wanted me to see it before they unloaded it and brought it up to my home. The refrigerator of course shows up badly dented on the door, so I refuse it because I haven't gone through all of this to take possession of a damaged product. The delivery man let me know that if I did take possession of it, they would offer me some discounts because it was damaged. I said no thanks and he called customer service for me to speak with a woman at the warehouse about the damaged product. The woman at the warehouse said she was going to check their inventory and call me back within a few moments to reschedule a new unit to be sent out. They install the range without an issue. Next, the dishwasher team shows up and that goes off without a hitch. Of course, I didn't hear back from anyone at the warehouse at all that evening to reschedule the delivery of a new refrigerator.
All in all, this has been a HORRIBLE experience with Best Buy. As a loyal Elite Status Rewards Zone customer and a former employee of the Best Buy in College Park, MD, I can say after this appliance experience, Best But has lost a lifelong customer. The level of customer service I received was sub-par and their attempts to correct an issue that started with their employee giving me improper information about installation being included in the price of all the appliances made the situation worse. I ended up returning the refrigerator because I refuse to wait any longer or go through anymore drama in order to take possession of something I paid for twenty days ago and can't receive because of Best Buy's inability to get their act together. I ended up purchasing a refrigerator from Sears immediately after cancelling my order for the one from Best Buy and it was delivered next day and damage free.

Hello canbro34,
The purchase and delivery of new appliances should be exciting and fun and not result in the kinds of tribulations that you describe. Our representatives should ensure that you have everything you need for a successful delivery and installation and I was surprised to read that the did not. I apologize for your having to cope with this frustrating experience.
I was gratified to read that the store's general manager was able to work with you to help assuage some of the problems that were created. It was regrettable that the refrigerator arrived damaged, but I was happy to hear that the delivery and installation of the other appliances went smoothly.
Although I understand your reasons, I was dismayed to read that you elected to purchase your refrigerator from a competitor and that this experience may influence your future shopping destination. It is my hope that you will give Best Buy another chance one day soon.
Please know that I am sincerely grateful that you took the time to share your experience with us.
Sincerely,
John|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Delivery and Goods Receipt without goods value

Hi!
this is my first post in this forum, hi everybody
Now the question:
My goal: warehouse manager shouldn't see goods value (prices) of purchased material and final products (sold goods).
That means I would like to remove all value data (Unit Price, Discount%, Total etc.) from the documents Delivery and Goods Receipt. Is it possible? The values should be then added by accountancy (any kind of connection between warehouse documents and journal entry?).
Is it possible to split the value data from quantity data (SAP BO 2007A)?
Thank you for any suggestion!
Aleksandra

Control cycle for production staging SAP WM

We currently have control cycle for kanban purchase orders. Do I need to create new control cycle production staging. Actually I will be using fixed bin for production consumption. Kindly confirm whether existing control cycle of purchase order can be used.

Material Staging Indicator for Production Supply
The material staging indicator defines the method of how needed materials can be supplied for production with the assistance of the Warehouse Management system.
As with the location coordinates (warehouse number, storage type, and storage bin), the system files this indicator in the control cycle.
The following staging types are supported:
"1": Pick parts
These materials are picked according to the required quantity specified in the production order.
"2": Crate or kanban parts
These materials are always removed from the warehouse in full cases. These can be ordered, for example, as soon as a case of needed parts is emptied in production.
"3": Release order parts
Release order parts are scheduled individually and the quantities are supplied manually to replenishment storage bins based on the requirements of production orders and the stock levels in the scheduled production supply areas.
"4": Manual staging
Materials are staged manually. For example, you can transport individual components using manually created transfer orders, or you can use the bypass method to transport them directly from the goods receipt zone to production. In goods receipt posting, postings are made to the production storage bins from the control cycles.
"0": Not relevant to WM-PP
These materials are not relevant to WM staging. They cannot be requested using the WM system.

Delivery the product from other plant directly

hi
we have 2 companies A, B. Company A receive order and give Company B to production, then Company B directly ship to customer. We are using deliviery plant for this scenario. However, sometimes the production will via Company A, then Company A delivery the product to customer. In this case, using delivery plant is not a good way. As the product require to stay in Company A for few days. any suggestion in this case? thanks

Looks like its a stright forward Inter company transactions.
in the first case it is a intercompany sale where company A receives the order and you change the Delivering plant to company B's Plant so that the delivery is triggered from company B.
in the second case, you trigger a Inter company Plant to Plant stock transfer requistion from Company A to company B , and there by the stock comes to A and from comp A you can ship to to the customer.

Link delivery to production order

Hello,
Production order is created from planned order (created for a stock transfer order) in CO40 and then parts are ready to be delivered. How can i link delivery with production order ?

Hi
In table AFKO you have the field VBELN. Well, with this field you can connect SO and delivery by 2 ways:
- Table VBFA
- Fields VGBEL and VGPOS in table LIPS.

How do we have a distinct DB for production & staging?

Hi all;
We can push our cloud service up as staging or production. When we do, each needs to hit a different Sql Azure database. Otherwise our staging system will be mucking with the accounts of our users in the production system.
How can we do this?
thanks - dave
What we did for the last 6 months -
Made the world's coolest reporting & docgen system even more amazing

hi dave,
For your scenario, you may need create two SQL Azure data base for staging and production environment. You can use different Configurations file for different environment. I recommend you could refer to this similar issue (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4328462/staging-or-production-instance/4330628#4330628).

SNP Optimizer and product priority

Hi all,
Is SNP Optimizer respects product priority? Some part of the documentation says, it respects, and someother part says no consideration. Which is correct ?
Shibu

Hi Shibu,
The product priority is not considered by the Optimizer -
There are actually two ways of giving the priority -
1. It is by giving different Non Delivery and Delay Penalty Cost for these products.
2. The other option is SNP Optimizer Priority Profile which is less complicated in terms of Master Data Maintenance. If you define the priority profile then the optimizer first plans the products with more priority and then plan the other set of products.

Delivering plant and production plant

hi,
what is the difference between delivering and production plant. is the config diff for bot these plants in enterprose structure.
regards
sachin

Hi,
      We have only one word as PLANT in standard sap. Forget about the difference we dont have something specifically as a delivering plant and a production plant. Its only how we want to use our plant as. If needed we can use the same plant for both the purposes ie., for delivery as well as for production.
      When we make use of the plant for production we assign the MRP views for it and then do the necessary configurations. If there is no PP module being implemented we can do away without the MRP views as we availability check through the sales view itself. We have the trigger for a purchase requistion needed for the MM for a purchase order and have the materials delivered at out plant from the vendor like trading goods.
      But, notice that in the material master Sales organization data view, you find the delivering plant fied for which the Field name would be MVKE- DWERK. It says deliver goods to the customer from this plant. If we specify the deliverin plant in the customer master shipping view the delivering plant field name is KNVV- VWERK, this has a higher precedence over the material master delivering plant.
   Hope this explanation clears it furhter. Pl.reward if helps.
Thanks & Regards

Delivery and replenishment delivery

hello all,
I would like to know the difference between delivery and replenishment delivery. pl. let me know in which scenario replenishment delivery is used and how it is created.
Thanks,
Maxx

Hi,
Longman online dictionary:
to put new supplies into something, or to fill something again
Dictionary.com:
to make full or complete again, as by supplying what is lacking
Cambridge online dictionary:
to fill something up again
Well, I think in terms of SAP it is used in the same meaning: if you use a material somewhere continually (consume it continually) you need continually supply that material to be able to continue your consumption.
In SAP you use this expression in connection with
- storage location MRP scenario
- fixed bin replenishment
- KANBAN replenishment
- generally in connection with material staging
- etc.
Please consider that characteristics of this processes: you "continually" produce / consume (e.g. raw) materials and that's why you need "replenishment".
In connection with certain MTO scenario where certain raw materials are very specific and are used only once maybe there's no point in speaking "replenishment".
The procurement of these goods seems to be a very simple process (very simple purchasing activity).
So, I think delivery is delivery and there's no separate "replenishment delivery" type / document, a delivery becomes "replenishment delivery" because it is used for "replenishment".
(E.g. delivery created with reference to STO can be called replenishment delivery if you provide the raw materials from one plant to another, or from one SLoc to another SLoc).
Just my ideas..
Regards,
Csaba

Link between Delivery and Sales Order Schedule Line

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement in which i need to display quantity and amount at schedule line level and also the delivery and delivery item for each schedule line.
For example, if there is a sales order O1 and item 10 for which we have 3 schedule lines and 3 deliveries as well say D1, D2 and D3.
Report should be something like this
Sales Order    Item   Schedule Line    Delivery    Del Item   Confirmed Order Qty
O1                 10      1                       D1           10            5
O1                 10       2                      D2            10            5
O1                 10       3                      D3            10            4
How can i determine that a particular delivery corresponds to which schedule line of that saler order-item?
We have the link between delivery and sales order but is there any way that we can get the link of delivery at schedule line level?
Please help.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi,
I suppose you must check with SD functional consultant and the post should also be in the logistics SD forum and not BI. But I suppose there is know specific link between the schedule line of SO to the Delivery. It is more like a bucket flow for ex.
Sale order   Item    Schedule line qty
SO1            Item1     Sch1            10
SO2            Item1      Sch2           10
Delivery Item QTy
DO1       IT1   15
DO2       IT1    5
In this case qty 15 is distributed over both SO1 and SO2, and SO2 ITem1 Sch2 has link to both the DOs
So I am not sure if you can establish a one to one link, please check with your SD consultants.

Ashwin G
