Document types Inventory Mgmt.

What are the different document types in the inventory documents?
i.e. in GR/GI/TP/ST etc.
Also where to assign the number ranges to all these document types?

Dear Monica
In Inventory management following are the three main documents types.
1)Material document
2) Accounting Document
3) Physical Inventory Document
Whenever you post any document through MIGO , MIRO or physical Inventory material & accounting document is created .Accounting document will be created only in case of valuated transaction.
For both these documents & for diffrent transactions say MIGO ,MIRO or physical inventory documents you can assign number ranges as per your requirement in customizing.
I hope this reply will be helpful to you & if so please reward points,

Document Types - Physical Inventory

My Client want to have different document type while doing the Physical Inventory In stead of "IB" which is standard document sap has provided.
Client want to have separate document type . Please advise any menthod is available so that I can inform client accordingly

Koteswar

I do not generally agree to your statement. It depends pretty much how big your system is and how many document you create per year.
I am just in the process of changing it from 9999 to year specific, because we will hit the last number in October or November this year.
And this change is awful as I need a time spot without any posting in the system which is almost impossible to find in a system which works 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, because you first have to make the current number initial before you can change the year. And if postings are going on then it might happen that document with wrong numbers get created, especially if the number range buffers are set to 10.
if you use yearly number ranges, then the year itself becomes the second key for the number range. This means you can have the same document number in every year.
in MIGO or MB03 you then have to enter the year together with the document number to find a unique document.

Quantity field not getting displayed for all document types

Hi,
I have made a configuration to include field Quantity(BSEG-MENGE) in the GL account line item display.When I ran the report for stock adjustment account(FAGLL03), only the following document types are showing quantity against them.
WI- Inventory document
WA-Goods Issue
WE---Not showing quantity against (WE- Goods Receipt)
Can any one please explain. I have seen the original document from FI document. The original document as well as FI document carries quantity.
Thanks
Aravind

Hi Aravind,
Check SAP notes 1063198 and 1117587.
FAGLL03 display quantity which is updated in FAGLFLEXA, BSEG is not
relevant in this case. This is clearly explained in the note 1063198.
The quantity posts through to FI on the 'goods receipt' items, but not on the
'invoice receipt' items.
In the FI normally the Quantity is not a 'real' important field, as it
is more related to the MM area.
But in the old 'Profit Center Accounting' and the old' Special Ledger'
the field has been important.
As the same logic of these areas to 'store' the Quantity is also used
in the NewG/L the field get only filled in the line, where it make
'sense' from our point of view, because only in the 'goods receipt'
lines a 'real' Quantity is posted to the system.
So as before in the PCA and SL, now also in the NewG/L the Quantity is
filled in the correct and important lines and postings.
In the BSEG ('old document segment table') the field is filled 'just'
as it is send to the FI, but this is not completely correct from the
business point of view.
This can also lead to issues with the reporting and summation to this
field. So with creating the new logic in the NewG/L the 'correct'
standard of the 'writing' for the Quantity has also been taken over.
So in the end, the update and display is correct according SAP standard behavior.
Actually,Quantities within G/L are never reliable,
because the purpose of FI is a view on the data according to amount
but not according to quantity.
In the FI normally the Quantity is not a 'real' important field, as it
is more related to the MM area.
I hope I could be of assistance.

Fernando

How to define certain document type (BKPF-BLART) for certain movement (101)

Sometimes ( I think it is becuase of the tcode) certain purchase 101 movements create a WA type FI document and some other times purchase 101 movements create WE type FI documents. I have seen a table ( accessing from omba transaction) in which for diffenent tcode´s we have either WE or WA. If we always use migo transaction why sometimes in bkpf we have migo_tr, migo_gi, ....;....
How should I do in order to create always WE FI documents for purchase 101 movements?
Thanks in advance.

Check the settings in SPRO-MM-Inventory Management-Number assignemnt-Define number ranges for accounting documents.
Here you assign accounting document type to tcodes.
Normally , WA is used in receipts for MB1C/MIGO_GI tcode - for e.g for 561 mvmt type.
SAP recomends keeping this setting as it is.
SAP help text copied here for reference:
Define Number Assignment for Accounting Documents
In this step, you set the number ranges for the accounting documents which are created when goods movements or inventory differences are posted.
Accounting documents in inventory management
For accounting-relevant goods movements, the system creates two different documents:
material document
accounting document
Both the material documents and the accounting documents have their own document numbers. When inventory differences are posted, the system also creates an accounting document for the physical inventory document.
In this step, you only maintain the number assignment for accounting documents.
Document types
Accounting documents are split into document types to allow differentiated document number assignment, which is the basis for distinguishing between the various accounting operations. A number range is assigned to each document type. In a company code, you have to define number intervals for each number range and fiscal year.
In inventory management, the transaction determines which document type is used.
Example: Goods receipt for purchase order
Requirements
You have already defined the company code.
Default Settings
In the standard SAP System, the following document types are predefined for inventory management:
WA for goods issues, transfer postings, other goods receipts
WE for goods receipts with reference to purchase orders
WF for goods receipts with reference to production orders
WI for inventory differences
WL for goods issues with reference to deliveries (SD)
WN for net posting of goods receipts
PR for revaluation documents
Each document type is already assigned a number range. In company code 0001, number intervals are defined for each number range both for the current and the previous fiscal year.
Number range 49 with the year-related interval 4900000000 to 4999999999 is assigned to the document types for all goods movements, except goods movements with reference to purchase/production orders.
Document type WE is used for goods receipts with reference to purchase orders and production orders. This document type is assigned number range 50 with the year-related interval 5000000000 to 5099999999.
Please note that net postings of goods receipts (document type WN) are not active in the standard SAP System. If you want to post goods receipts net, you have to assign document type WN (instead of WE) to the transaction MB01.
Document type WI is used for posting inventory differences. This document type is assigned the number range 01 with the year-related interval 0100000000 to 019999999999.
SAP Recommendation
Activities
1. Check whether you can use the standard settings.
2. If not, you have to add new document types to satisfy your requirements:
a) Define a new document type under Financial accounting document
b) types.
c) Assign a number range to the document type.
d) Under Financial accounting number ranges, define the year-related number intervals for the given number range in your company code. If you do not want to use the year-related number assignment method, enter 9999 in the Year field.
e) Under Allocate document type to transaction, assign the relevant document type to the transaction codes of inventory management.
Document type PR (revaluation documents) is already assigned.
Notes on transport
You transport number range objects as follows:
Choose Interval -> Transport in the accounting document Number Range screen.
All intervals for the selected number range object are deleted in the target system first. After the import, only the intervals you export are present. The number statuses are imported with their values at the time of export.
Dependent tables are not transported or converted.
All other activities are linked to the automatic transport.

Creating new document types

Hi,
i've opened a call at SAP Support for following request and the support has relegate me to the forum/ solution managers:
For some, especially for one customer, is it very important to get new types of documents.
For example:
The credit memo. The credit memo makes an inventory entry.
The customer als needs an credit memo which doesn't make an inventory entry.
The seccond one for example is an notice of receipt: A customer of our customer send an item as a RMA. Our customer wants to make a kind of an notice, that this/ these item/s are arrived..
this one has to be take over in a bill of delivery when sendig the fixed item back to the customer
and so on....
It is important to make new document types in B1, set their own characteristics and their own possibility for take over in other documents...

Hi...
I've written down my suggestions here because the support can't help me farther.
The B1 Support told me that here are members of the Solution Management team in the Forum (View SAP Support Number 1028874 - Missing Functionality / Product Development Collaboration). But - none of my "wishes" have been answered.
Whats wrong here?
A simple thing like "Will come in the next Patch" or "Is not manageable" will be enough for me.
It's essential for our customers to get these functions or know when it will be implemented!
Thanks!

MRP-Exclude STO document type from MRP Run

Hi,
I want to exclude STO document type from MRP run, so that STO Open qty will not be considered as open qty while doing MRP.
I have checked below settings but didn't worked.
1. In OMI8 - I have unchecked "Stock in Transfer"
2. SPRO->Materials Management->Consumption-based Planning->Planning->Define torage Location MRP per plant
     Here I have excluded ONE storage location from MRP and same storage location has been used in the STO.
Can anyone know how to resolve this ?
Regards,
Rakesh

Rakesh,
Yes, they will not be relevant for MRP. Neither will anything else in that storage location. However, the setting is not in configuration, but in the material master (MRP4 tab).
The configuration setting you mentioned has no impact on existing material masters, it is only used to determine the default settings for newly created storage location entries for a material/plant..
You can set a particular material/plant/stlocn to be irrelevant for MRP. This relevancy is irrespective of document type, it can be a STO, a purchase req, a sales order, a production order, or it could be stock (inventory) - all supply and demand in this material/plant/stlocn are excluded from MRP processing.
MRP relevancy of storage location is set at the material/plant/storage location level in the material master.
If you do not wish to exclude a storage location from MRP, then you will have to find another way to make your STOs Irrelevant for MRP. As I said earlier, STOs (like any other Purchase orders that are configured to process stock ), are generally considered to be relevant for MRP.
If you were a client, I would suggest that you rethink your business model that drives this requirement.
If the business model cannot be altered, and the storage location solution is unacceptable, then you will be stuck with a customized solution.

Movement type and document type

All SAP Gurus,
I know the movement type (541, 543, 261, 262, 281, 282, 601, 602). How to know the Document type of thpes?
Thanks,
R. rajan

Hi
Document types are attached to the transaction being used, not to the movement types.
You can check the same in transaction OMBA or
SPRO-> Materials Management-> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory-> Number Assignment-> Define Number Assignment for Accounting Documents
Under Allocated document types to transactions in the transaction click on the Goods issue document type
For the Transactions you can see the Document types attached
These transactions are attached to the Movment types in OMJJ transaction, select the movment type click on Allowed transactions page.
So based on the transaction attched to the Movement type the
document type is determined for the Movement types.
Movemnt type Linked to Transaction & Transaction linked to Document type.
Thanks & Regards

Number range table for MM document types

hi
Can anybody help me to find the number range for the mm document types.
Regards
rajeev

Hi,
go to transaction SPRO, Materials Management, then choose one of the following:
Purchasing or
External Services Management or
Logistics Invoice Verification or
Inventory Management and Physical Inventory
and look for the document types you would like to customize.
Like within purchasing for purchase order -> Define Number Ranges. In this step, you maintain the number ranges for the following purchasing documents:
RFQ/quotation
Purchase order
Contract
Scheduling agreement
After that you can add the number ranges to the document types under Define Document Types. ...
Please be more specific next time as MM document types can relate to 4 main areas within MM.

What are the sources system will pick the document type while creating invo

hi
I would like to know how system will pickup the doucment type while creating invoice in vf01.
i have taken off the fields f1, f2, from the document type. in billing sub tab. so The moment when am creating billing system automatically displaying F2 invoice doucment creation. What are the sources for this.
thanks & Regards
Rack129

Hi,
Hope you have maintained u2018Delivery relevant billing type F2u2019 and u2018Order relevant billing type F1u2019 in the billing tab of the Sales document type in VOV8.
If you create delivery related billing, the system will pick F2. This is controlled in Item category (VOV7). Billing relevance in Business data of Item category decides whether this is delivery related or order related. u2018Au2019 for delivery related billing; u2018Bu2019 for order related billing and so on.
Item category is determined by this combination: Sales document type + Item cat group + usage + higher level item cat.

K Bharathi

in that screen you select the document type you want to copy to create your document type and perform the action.
if you want to change the screen/field selection for your document type select the field selection key (if you select the document type as NBB the field selection key will be NBB.,and go to the screen and change the field status.
