Dilemma around material issue from stores

Hello
A national water management authority is replacing their paper-based systems with Oracle. They have sufficient licenses of Oracle Purchasing but not enough of Inventory and none of Order Management.
Departments send in their material requests for approval to their departmental managers. After approval, a departmental representative picks up the material from stores. This process is entirely now on paper. In my opinion, Move Orders is the "best" Oracle solution for this? Am I right?
However, our hands are tied by the constraint of fixed Inventory licenses. The number of requesters is many times more. To get around, we plan to have departmental batch user IDs in Oracle e.g. ACCOUNTING_DEPARTMENT_STORES_REQUESTER. Employees will enter their Move Order requests with their departmental user IDs and use the Reference field for their internal employee numbers. Is this the only option?

Hello,
If you are open for customization you can try following.
0. create a dummy subinventory ..say DEPT ...(or u can also create multiple subinventories for each department ..)
1. Let the users create Internal Requisitions using their named user name ... here source organization and destination organization will be same but source subinventories will be stores and destination subinventory will be the DEPT subinventory.
2. Let it go for approval to department heads.
3. Once approved, write a custom concurrent program that will look for the approved IRs with destination subinventory = DEPT, and create Approved Move Orders of type Move Order Issue ...here Issue-To-Account should be derived based on Department. You can populate some DFF field on move order header with the reference of the Internal Requisition Id (This link will also be used in the IR selection criteria).
There are Public APIs available to create Move Orders.
(Requisition Approval workflow can also be modified to call the custom procedure, instead of scheduled concurrent program)
4. Now Stores user (an Inventory user) will allocate and transact the material to department against the issue
Thanks,

Can goods be issued on Planned orders or Purchase requisitions also.
no u cant issue the goods Can goods on Planned orders or Purchase requisitions also.
u can issue it on Production order
iam confused can any one throw light on Inventory management. and Goods issue.
Goods Issue is a small part of inventory managenment
in Inv Mgt u have GR GI transfer posting Physical inventory etc
any precautions while doing initial entry of goods to SAP should only be done BY MT 561?
Its very imp part of implem is stock upload
u have to take care that the right price have to be upload in accounting view of those materials having S price indiacteo generally semifinased and finished material
As value of material with MAP ie V can be taken care at 561 but Material with S indactoer price in acounting view is very important. so before uploading stock check the prices of material with S
and u can put value in MB1A 561 for matrials with V indicator (u will have to activate amount field for 561 movement in OMJJ and make Ext. GA amount in LC field as opt entry
hope this helps

Material repacement from Store/ QC

Hi Friends
I have one requirement ,
i.e
1. Material issue to the production against production order for 10 qty(5 rejected in production)
2. sent to QC for reinspection for 5 qty
3. How to move this qty to qc
4. QC will take 1 week to complete re inspection

Please let me know the settings,
Thanks & Regards
Gajendranath

Hi
1. Material issue to the production against production order for 10 qty(5 rejected in production)
2. sent to QC for re inspection for 5 qty
3. How to move this qty to qc
When you issue the material it is 261 against the Production order.
So when 5 material is rejected in the production ,you will actually make the Confirmation of 5 Qty in CO11.Rest of the Quantity you can do 262.
Now Move this material to "QUARANTINE STORAGE location" like QRNT( only for rework ) .storage location where you will physically & in system ..carry out the rework.This can be done by Mvt type-311 in MB1B.
4. QC will take 1 week to complete re inspection
If Material After rework is ok then only again move material back.
5. How production guy replace this 5 qty immediatley from store
He can reissue material by 261 against reservation MB21 & then by MB1A against the reservation.
I hope this will help

Material Issued from other Plants

Hi All,
I have 2 question here.
I have created a STPO with delivery date say 12.09.2009 from my plant ABC to the Plant XYZ and 140 qty, For this XYZ plant has issued material on 15.09.2009 around 100 qty.,
Now I am looking for the report ME2W to find out what are all the materials has supplied by other plant till 14.09.2009.
but as per the report ME2W it is having I/P option as delivery date, so if i put delivery date between 01.09.2009 to 14.09.2009, it is showing all the material which is issued on after 14.09.2009 also as i have put the delivery date and also it is checking as per delivery date.
Question:
1. How to get these reports ie., materials issued as per issued date or posting date not as per delivery date or not as per material code---- any transaction available for this.
2. one more i come across here in STPO is that, if i create 100 qty of PO but it is allowing to issue more than the PO qty, say if i create Po with 100 Qty but other plant can issue more than 100 ie.,>100.
Is thr any settings available to make such the system should not allow to issue more than the PO qty.
Please help me out on this.

Material issue without order/ project

dear all,
i need one advise from your side :
we purchase some materials from outside, assemble it and sell it to customer. but we dont want to create production order for that is it any certain process in SAP so that when we do the assembly and gr for parent material will done at the same time child material will automatically issue from stores.

we usually buy some kit material from vendor. we assemble it in our factory and sell to customer. as per std, sap process. we have to create bom and production order for parent material and material will issue against assembly operation in operation sequence of order. but this KIT materials having many of material codes which are difficult to maintain in bom and process. so my request is to bypass order system ,

Picking List / Material issue slip

Kindly let me know the process of printing a Picking list / Issue Slip for a material issue from a DBM Service order.

Dear Babudhar,
There are no standard actions delivered to print any picking lists along with DBM 6.0.
An event call be built in (to print the list) which could be linked to Confirm event as a subsequent event. So, as soon as the order if confirmed, the new event can print the list for you.
Hope this info helps.

Optimization of raw material while issuing from the stores

Dear Techies,
I need a small information regarding,Optimization of raw materials of "arc shape "while issuing from the stores it self.
I will explain this with an example.
Say we require a flange ring.This flange ring can be manufactured using three -120 deg segments.
while calling the raw material below the flange rings material ,we have to give raw material dimensions of " 1X120 deg segment".System will accordingly multiply for the requirement of 3-segments.
In this situation is there any possibilty to " Club" the raw material to minimize the scrap,ie., we can accomdate another segment just below the other segment.With this type of arrangement I can optimize raw material required.
Is there any possibility in SAP that I can address this situation.
Thanks In advance,
With best regards,
Kiran.

Hello,
according to my knowlege it is not possible in SAP.
you have to create interface with Softwares like PRO-E sheet metal.

Communication from Adobe around recent issues

John Metzger asked me to post the following message:
>>>>>>>>>>
An open communication around recent issues reported with the latest deployment of Adobe Digital Publishing.
I’d like to open a direct dialog between the Adobe Digital Publishing team and current customers (pre-release and production) around the release we deployed the week of 6/13.
First, I’d like it known that we are listening to our customers and working to fix issues with the latest release. We have employees actively reading the pre-release and production forums, trying to cull out bugs from the various user scenarios. We also gather information from our staff in the field and try to respond. Your concerns do not fall on deaf ears. We have engineers and QE working on the reported problems, fixing our highest concern which is the errors you are receiving while uploading and downloading content to our hosted services. We have fixes in the process of being tested, with in an effort to deploy a hot fix as soon as we are comfortable with the changes. This is our highest priority item.
You can help us fix the problem by continuing to report issues on the forums. When you do report an issue it helps us to have the following pieces of information.
1) The toolset and version being used to upload content (are you using the old content bundler workflow or the new Folio Producer)?
2) If you are using the Folio Producer, have you used the acrobat.com backdoor to modify the folio?
3) Did you cancel any uploads while others were in progress? see a network outage, or a failure during upload?
4) Do you see any pattern of particular content type that is causing errors?
5) Account ID (so we can search our logs for failures)
6) Any failure codes or messages
We may reach out to you directly and ask for content and other information so we can attempt to replicate your situation from our side.
Secondly, we need to improve our communication channels now that the product is being released to a wider audience. We need to do a better job explaining the compatibility matrix between the various parts of the solution. Many of you upgraded to the recent authoring release without understanding that the viewer in the Apple store that supported V13 was not available. Due to the lengthy approval time to get our viewer through the Apple process, we’ve never held back the other parts of the solution waiting for the viewer to be available in the Apple store. Other platform vendors have a much shorter approval process. We prefer to get the tools into the hands of our customers as soon as they are ready. Long time users of the solution understand the interaction and the upgrade process. We will do a better job explaining these scenarios to newer users of the tools. We are working on expanding the channels of communication to educate our users, sales and support staff of these interactions.
Thirdly, some users are asking for the return of desktop folio production and control without going to the cloud. We are actively working on features that re-enable these work flows while also addressing the security concerns of our larger publishers. Some of these features include the ability to author disconnected folios, and push to the cloud at a time of your choosing and the ability to preview content on a locally connected device. This does not mean we are re-enabling the Apple concept of side loading, where you import a local .folio file into the Adobe Content Viewer via iTunes. We are actively working on these features but I can not share when they will be available to customers just yet. If you are a customer who has purchased the Digital Publishing Suite, you may contact your reseller or Adobe Account Manager to participate in roadmap briefings.
Fourth, the ability for pre-release customers to manipulate .folio content through the Acrobat.com organizer was a bug. It was not a feature of the product. Digital Publishing customers get access to the suite of services through Digitalpublishing.acrobat.com. We built a specific set of tools and UI around the production tasks of editing metadata, arranging article order and interaction with our distribution service. Those services use Acrobat.com as infrastructure to enable this functionality. Moving forward, Digital Publishing will continue building a customer experience tailored to production tasks and disabling any back door access through the Acrobat.com organizer. Fixing this bug has surfaced features that our customers would like see in the Folio Builder panel. We are working on adding article ordering and a better Digital Publishing sharing experience to our creative customers through the Folio Builder Panel.
I hope that this message clarifies our current status, priorities and addresses concerns that Adobe isn’t listening to the concerns of its customers. I hope that you continue using the product and continue expressing yourselves on the pre-release and product forums. We are listening and actively working toward building a better product.

You said you tried clearing your cache data from Edit->Preferences and Adobe Partner Services ->Clear Online Service Data? Right?
Have you been able to upload to Facebook and see them there for the first two days?

Single time receiving material from stores for diff process order.

Dear all,
I am creating 5 different process order for 5 different FG material.
But for all 5 fg material one bill of material is common to all.
While receiving material from stores that particular bom i need to get single time only from stores for all five process order.
Kindly please let me know how to process.
Regards
Rajasekaran

Hi Raja,
As replied to your earlier threads, unique reseration is created against each process order. Accordingly issue also takes place againt unique reservation/process order. Use MB1A/MIGO for individual issue or pick list COIK where issue an be done by stores for all process orders in on go.
In SAP Mill Products once DIMP is activated there is combination order functionallity available where if operations/ BOM of 5 orders are same then combination order (New order) can be created by combining the qty of 5 individual orders. Here Goods issue is done against the new combined order which is single order for total 5 orders qty. This functionality i used in Discrete Maufacturing.
Have a look.

2. For refurbishment, items are stocked , if items are ther in store once u release the order, reservation no is generated,you can issue the material using MB11 T Code and you can receive it using MB8W Tcode.

Material issues for equipment from already issued materials for FL(Func Loc

Hi,
At my client place, the working nature is 24x7. Store is closed by 3:00PM and no material is issued after that. So, Departments get issued materials for the Functional location at once and distribute(consump) materials for Equipments as per requirement under that Funcitonal location. Our client wants that when material is consumped for equipments it should be issued from functional location issued materials.
E. g. : For the funtional location "SSSL-1000-DG" 50,000 litre oil has been issued. Now, for lubrication of Equipments under this Functional location, Oil should be issued(debited) from this functional location. suppose, 1000 litre has been consumped for "ABC" Equipmnets. So, balance Oil of Functional location will be 40,000 litre.
Please help me.
Dinesh.

Hi Dinesh,
Generally material/consumption booking is done thorugh warehouse only.
Once you issue the material from warehouse against F.L. cost center it will get updated with that F.L only.
If you want that material to be booked against equipment then you need to issue against equipment only.
You can create another store at maintenance side. Or just take the material from store and on next day book against required equipment.
