Prasath.

Dear,
I tried to create cost element in KA01. But, it is showing some error like
" This is not a logical system of controlling area 1000"
As i am an MM consultant, i am not getting what is meant by logical system of controlling area. Kindly resolve this.

The interface connecting Lean-WM and inventory management

Dear experts!
Thank you for your attention!
I am confused at the interface connecting Lean-WM and inventory management.
there are so many concepts in this field, such storage location, picking areas, storage types and so on.
Could you please give me an real case or a illustration to discribe that how the interface connecting Lean-WM and inventory management works?
Best regard!
Tangdark

you do nto need to enter serial numbers while clearing inventory at WM level but at IM in case you have the serial profile activated then you need to enter serial numbers when clearing inventory from the IM level.
according to what you have said it should automatically pop up a screen where you need o enter the serial numbers but this is weird it is not doing.
Please check the following:-
Does the serial number profile config in OIS2 have "MMSL" as a property and if so is entry of serial numbers mandatory during goods receipt and issue ad if there is a stock check active

Automatic PO generation while doing MIGO

Hi,
Please guide me the details configuration and data maintain steps to enable automatic po generation at the time of doing MIGO with the movement type .
Thanks in Advance,

Settins
a) Define and asing standard purchasing Organization at the Enterprice structure configuration
Note: You can use the same normal purchasing organization you use for procurement as a standard.
b) Activate automatic PO indicator for movement type 101 in coustomizig
materials management - inventory management - goods receipt - create purchase order automatically
c) Define purchasig document type
materiales management - purchasing - define default values for puchasing document type
d) Infor record for the standard purchasing organization and the vendor mater record.
Note: You can use the same normal purchasing organization you use for procurement as a standard.
e)The material has to be valuated
And when you use de MIGO use movement type 101 as an non ordered item.

Serial Numbers in Inventory Management – Warehouse Managed storage location

Serial Numbers in Inventory Management u2013 Warehouse managed storage locations
We want to run inventory cycle at the warehouse for materials. These materials are u2018serial numberedu2019 in the material master. During the initial entry (say GR) of the materials, systems prompt for the serial numbers. At this point, system offers option of assignments of serial numbers automatically.
While running an inventory cycle for warehouse u2013 and posting difference at WM level (LI01), system is throwing error as u201Cmaintain serial number for totol quantityu201D. System does not promt me to enter the serial number for the materials (count) which are found excess/shortage duing the inventory cycle.
Is there any configuration where this scenario can be managed; system should prompt us to enter serial number while posting differenes at WM level (LI20).
The inventory cycle is -
1.     Create Physical Inventory Documents - LI01N
2.     Activate Physical Inventory Document -      LI02N
3.     Enter Count -     LI11N
4.     Post Differences at WM level -     LI20
5.     Post Differences at IM level(If Differences are posted at WM ) -     LI21

Curious to know: The WM Inventory transaction - LI11N - (where we enter physical count. )
1. Compared to MI04 - IM Inventory Transaction: where a pop-up window asks for serial number of the material.
2. We expect a similar pop-up at LI11N transaction- where the system should ask serial numbers.
Q.1 How can we achieve this?
Q.2 Will this be a standard SAP practice? (if we do customizing to get serial nos. pop-up window at LI11N)
thanks,

hi Neel,
check oss note 352344 - Process key + reversals in Inventory Management ?
Symptom
This note is a consulting note and describes the use of the process key (0PROCESSKEY) in Inventory Management (MSEG). It focusses on the way the system deals with reversed transactions for DataSources 2lis_40_s279 and 2lis_03_bf.
To be able to use theses DataSources, you ABSOLUTELY MUST activate the transaction key generation (process key, PROCESSKEY) using Transaction MCB_ (from the OLTP IMG for BW: SBIW) (standard, retail or consumption goods).
The following transaction keys are available
(PROCESSKEY/Appl. Component/Description):
000/MM        Misc. receipts
001/MM        Goods receipt / vendor
004/MM        Article transfer posting receipt
005/MM        Stock correction inventory +
006/MM        Stock correction other +
007/IS-R      Receipt value-only article (single article
              posting)
010/MM        Receipt from stock transfer
002/IS-R      Merchandise clearing receipt
003/IS-R      GR from DC
100/MM        Misc. issues
101/MM        Returns / Vendor
104/MM        Article transfer posting issue
105/MM        Stock correction inventory -
106/MM        Stock correction other -
107/IS-R      Issue value-only article (single article
              posting)
110/MM        Issue from stock transfer
102/IS-R      Merchandise clearing issue
103/IS-R      GI from DC
450/IS-R      Generic Article (not relevant)
Remark: Transaction keys 002/003, 102/103 break down the core keys 010/110 in more detail with respect to retail processes. They are only available in an R/3 Retail.
As you can see in the overview, the transaction keys can be divided according to receipts and issues in Inventory Management. Furthermore, the transaction keys are displayed according to reversed and regular transactions.
A regular receipt has a debit/credit indicator "S" (SHKZG, 0DCINDIC), whereas a regular issue has a debit/credit indicator "H".
For reverse transactions the opposite is true.
Transaction                            D/C ind.   D/C ind.
                                        S          H
RECEIPTS
0 Misc. receipts                        regular    reversed
1 Goods receipt / vendor               regular    reversed
2 Merchandise clearing receipt        regular    reversed
3 GR from DC                            regular    reversed
4 Article transfer posting receipt    regular    reversed
5 Stock correction inventory +        regular    reversed
6 Stock correction other +            regular    reversed

102 Merchandise clearing issue        reversed   regular
103 GI from DC                         reversed   regular

107 Issue value-only article          reversed   regular
110 Issue from stock transfer         reversed   regular
Note: You can also recognize a reversal for DataSource 2lis_03_bf by means of the entry 0STORNO = ´X´. The fields that are marked with X in the table are then transferred with negative +/- sign. This was not the case with DataSource 2LIS_40_S279!!! In the case of DataSource 2LIS_40_S279 more logic was required in the BW update rules to make sure that key figures were updated correctly.
Example:
In the delivered InfoCubes 0CP_IC_C1 (CP) and 0RT_C01 (Retail), for example in key "Stock correction +", transaction keys 5 and 6 were grouped together. Furthermore, distinction is to be made between the different stock types. Depending on which stock types you want to distinguish between in different key figures, you must use a corresponding condition (IF statement) in the update rules in the BW.
Example (pseudo source code):
Updating Routine "stock adjustment +" for 2lis_02_bfIF ( STOCKCAT is initial ) AND         "Evaluated stocks ( PROCESSKEY = 5 OR PROCESSKEY = 6 )._ RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT. RETURNCODE = 0.    "Updating Key figureELSE. RETURNCODE = 4.    "No Updating of KeyfigureENDIF.
The pseudo source code for 2LIS_40_S279 read as follows:
Updating Routine "stock adjustment +" for 2lis_40_s279IF ( STOCKCAT is initial ) AND         "Evaluated stocks ( PROCESSKEY = 5 OR PROCESSKEY = 6 ).    IF DCINDIC = 'S'.      RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT.    "regular    ELSE.      RESULT = -1 * TRANS_AMOUNT.    ENDIF.    RETURNCODE = 0.    "Updating Key figureELSE.     RETURNCODE = 4.    "No Updating of KeyfigureENDIF.
Here, the debit/credit indicator must be checked in accordance with the table above. Transactions 5 and 6 are receipts in Inventory Management. As the debit/credit indicator is set to "S", it is a regular transaction whose value(TRANS_AMOUNT) is assigned to the key figure. In the other case (debit/credit indicator = "H") it is a reversal, that is, the transaction should reverse a transaction that has already been updated. For this, the value is multiplied by -1 so that a corresponding decrease/reduction of this key figure is achieved during the update of the key figure in the InfoCube.
This logic is no longer required for the 2LIS_03_BF (see first pseudo source code), because the reversed quantity and values are automatically provided as negative with the help of the 0STORNO field.
Using this DataSource 2LIS_03_BF, it is for example possible to create a key figure such as "Reversed receipts", which is not a part of the Business Content delivered. The following pseudo source code of an update routine makes this clear:
Update routine "Reversed receipts"
IF ( PROCESSKEY = 1 ) AND   (STORNO = ´X` ) "Reverse     RESULT = -1 * TRANS_AMOUNT.     RETURNCODE = 0.ELSE.     RETURNCODE = 4.      "no update of key figure!ENDIF.
Note: For DataSource 2LIS_40_S279 the pseudo source code read as follows:
Update routine "Reversed receipts"
for 2LIS_40_S279IF ( PROCESSKEY = 1 ) AND   ( DCINDIC = H ) "Reverse     RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT.     RETURNCODE = 0.ELSE.   RETURNCODE = 4.      "no update of key figure!ENDIF.
To be able to understand the overall scheme more comprehensively, you should have a look at the update rules of the Standard Business Content for retail or consumption goods (for example InfoCubes 0RT_C01 or 0CP_IC_C1).

Posting block Question in How to handle inventory management scenarios

Hi all - I have a question in document
<b>"How to...Handle Inventory Management Scenarios in BW"</b>
can anyone please tell me what a posting block is in this document...
also I did not understood what a Validity table is?
thanks,
Sabrina.

Hi Sabrina!
A 'posting block' period is something that now you are facing in inventory management, but you have to consider it in ALL logistic cockpit flows (what you can see in LBWE).
This requirement can be easily explained in this way: as you know, to fill a setup table you have to activate the extract structure of the datasource for which you want to run the setup job (otherwise the system says that no active extract structure exists, do you remember ?); but, by doing so with the posting operations open (in other words, users can create new document or change the existing ones), you run the risk that these records are automatically included in the extraction queue (or in SM13 if you are using unserialized method) AND also collected in setup table ! And you will have the same records with the initial load (from setup table) and then the same from delta load (from the queue): a nice data duplication.
To avoid this situation, a "posting block" (or a "free-posting period" or a "downtime") is requested. No one can post new document during your setup job...
Hope now is clearer...
Bye,
Roberto

Regarding inventory management

Hi,
I have documnet How To Handle Inventory Management Scenarios in BW
Version 1.3 January 2005.
But it gives the details about 3.5 version. If i want to implemnet in 7.0 what all i need?
also i w2as trying to find the 'No marker update' option and all in 7.0 but coudnt find the same. Is thr so much difference in implementing INVENTORY in 7.0
*Please help.

Hi Jino,
Briefly,
a) Single Step transfer: -
this comes in STO, while transfer material between plants.
if you tick the indicator as one step in config,
Generally, when you do the PGI for material from supply plant to receiving plant, goods issue document will generate in Issuing plant.
Similarly goods receipt (GR)document generate in receiving plant.
in One step procedure, GR will create automatically in background after you do PGI.
where as in Two Step Plant Transfer. AFter PGI, you have to create GR-MIGO also.
Hope it clears. Try and let me know

Inventory management for Equipment

Hello Experts,
One of our client is currently using SAP-ERP system. They are having sensitive equipment for their safety purpose to all the gate securities. Now they are using Third party tool for their application. The current system is not reliable for tracking the material flow, equipment tracking, and online inspection for the equipment. Currently they are having 40posts (Gates).Different type of equipment is located in all the posts based on its range.
Equipment issue, Retrieve equipment,conumption posting,scrap accounting also maintain in MM
So they want to automate this process in SAP system which includes all the Employee details (Security),Medical Fitnessu2026u2026u2026for ease tracking of the equipment ,status of the equipment, employee equipment training, online-inspection and security shift change details.
How to map this scenario in MM?Awaiting for your valuable reply.

Hello,
Currently they are havingSAP-HR.But i want to integrate HR with inventory management(Like issue,receipt,scrap,consumption)

HU without inventory management and message L3778 in storage type 999

Hi experts,
Need suggestion on the process to add inventory of an HU with status 'HU without inventory Management'. This issue has occurred out of the below scenario:
1. our warehouse is HU & WM managed.
2. We have a transfer order for a delivery document requesting to pick up 100 cases of MAT1 which is assigned to HU1.
3. While confirming the transfer order user has confirmed difference for the full quantity of 100 because the SU/HU was not found in the bin.
4. The system has set the status of HU as 'HU without inventory Management'. The HU is empty.
5. system has moved the stock from the bin to difference storage type 999.
Now user has found the stock for this HU and he wants to post the stock back into the bin. system does not allow to move the stock back to bin using LT01 as we get error message 'L3 778'.
What will be the best practice to get the stock back into the bin and post the stock into the same old HU.
Is there a process wherein we can post this stock to another bin and repack into the old HU?
Thanks,
Harish

Thanks Manish on the hint. I was able to transfer stock to partner location and then bring back to original Storage type/Bin. Below steps was used to fixed the issue:
1. Initiate a transfer of stock from WM/HU Sloc where the IM stock resides into Sloc 9099. An outbound delivery is created during this process.
2. Create a transfer order with reference to delivery and pick the stock from 999 storage type.
3. Create a Pick HU using LH01 and assign the HU on the pallet to the transfer order.
4. Confirm the transfer order using LT12.
5. Perform PGI for the delivery.
6. Use HUMO to display the HU and then you can transfer the stock back to WM/HU location using the storage location transfer option available on the HUMO screen(EDIT à change HU posting à Storage location)
7. Perform Bin to bin transfer to move the SU from 921 storage type to putaway the HU/SU back to the destined Storage type/Bin.
Best Regards,
Harish

Inventory management

Hi,
In Inventory management ...for reports i am using standard queries taken from metadata repository but i am not using the standard cube instead using a custom cube and copied all those queries on to custom cube...since for all figures routines have been written in update rules...
please tell me wheather i need to test them with R/3 to know whether data flow or data entries are right or no...
if i have to test from BW to R/3 then i need to test them in Standard reports of R/3 not using RSA3 becoz the values of key figures are calculated during runtime and i dnt get them in RSA3 m i right?
please suggest me where i can search the standard reports in R/3...which transactions i need to use...
e.g.Receipt quantity :Blocked stock(0RECBLOSTC)
WHERE can i get the values for this in R/3?
thanks in advance,
Vijaya

Hi,
The information on "how to validate" given in the note 586163:
<i>TAC MB5B <-> Queries 0IC_C03_Q???
(Stocks/movements R/3 <-> BW)
TACs MC.? <-> Queries 0IC_C03_Q???
(Inventory controlling LIS <-> BW)
Reports MBQUANT and RM07MMFI
(verification of the R/3 data)
Notes 739863 and 745788 provide additional information in this regard, as well as the options that exist to clean up data in BW.
Note 766622 provides you with the option
of creating a LOG file for the extraction.</i>

Snapshot scenario or non cumulative key figure in inventory management

Hi
We are currently using Inventory Management with non-cumulative key figures but we get very high performance problems due to so big number of lines in info cube.
We are analyzing the other scenario with snapshot and I am asking if it would be very realistic to use it to satisfy our requirement: to be able to get inventory management at day level for about 2 000 000 combinations article-site and about 100 000 stock movement lines per day (we are retailer!).
Is there somebody to give me advice about it?
Tanks a lot
Anne

Being a non-cumulative KF, total stock is automatically takes care of that.
Try putting all the restrictions which you have included for total receipts and total issues, for eg, restrict Total Stock with the movement types used in Receipts as well as Issues.
Check and revert.

Gajendra

Consignment Stock for Inventory Management

Posting as a new thread...
I have installed and loaded the Inventory Management Cube 0IC_03 in our development and quality systems. During testing we have found just one problem with Consignment Stock. The Stock Initialization (2LIS_03_BX) does not bring in an initial quantity (BWMNG) for any material flagged as a Consignment Stock (Stock Category = K, field BSTTYP).
My question - is there a good reason for this or is this a problem? It causes a problem with reporting, because balances are now off. Do I need to change how reporting is done for Consignment?
It seems to me that the BX extractor should be picking up the initial balance. I am trying to debug the code, but am getting a headache!
Any help would be appreciated!
Yes, I have reviewed the "How To..." documentation, but don't see anything regarding consignment stock.
We are at BW 3.0b Support Pack 25.
Lisa.

Thanks, Ken. I don't know that this note actually helped me, but I did another review of OSS notes. We have applied 3 of them (726485, 756151, 762219) and our consignment issue has been resolved.
Thanks for pointing me back in the right direction!
Lisa.

Starting Inventory Management in BW

Hi experts,
I am starting Inventory Management in BW and using the How to Guide.
I understand how important the Stock init is and the need to block postings or to init during a period when no sotck movements occur.
This is especially important for us as we have stocks in Europe and Stock in the US.
Though I am still a little confused of during which steps of the Init the stock movements have to be blocked.
Here is how I processed in Dev system:
1- Activated necessary BI content in BW and 2LIS_03_ datasources in R/3 (transaction LBWE)
2- Intilialized the current stock in R/3 (transaction MCNB)
3- Executed INIT Infopackage to load current stock PSA table and then DTP (Extraction mode set to Initial Non-Cumulative for Non-Cumulative Values) to load the 0IC_C03 Cube
4- Deleted 03 Setup Tables in R/3 (transaction SBIW)
5- Initialized 03 Setup Tables (transaction SBIW)
6- Executed INIT Infopackage to load Good Movements PSa and then DTP to 0IC_C03 Cube (delta extraction)
7- Handle Delta movements in Process chain
Here are the questions I have:
- Am I missing any steps (except stock valuation part)?
- Do Stock posting have to be blocked during all these phases ? Or can they be queued in delta queue before doing the INIT of Infopackage (Step 6)?
- There doesn't seem to go through step 5 restricting on plant/stock. So I need to init for all plants (seems to be only possible to restrict on posting date or document) and make sure all postings are blocked right?
Thanks a lot for your answeres.
Olivier

Inventory Management differences between 3.5 and 7 versions doubt

Hi
We plan to upgrade BW system from version 3.5 to version 7 next year.
And we plan to initiate Inventory Management in BW (Cube 0IC_C03).
It is good idea to start Inventory Management before upgrade?
OR the better idea is wait befor upgrade?
THX for your opinion.
Adam

look at the current content if that meets the requirement then why to wait till upgrade. During upgarde it is your call whether to move objects to BW7 (content) and data flow. Even if you want to move to BW7 data flow, you could easily migrate.
Why should you wait for those many months if currents objects meet your reporting needs.
Also, I am not sure whether SAP has made any changes to Inventory content so that you could get anything better with new content post upgrade.

Vikash

Prod issue with Inventory management in BW ..please help

hi Folks
i am new into inventory management extraction into BW. i have read all the document regarding the extraction. My question is
1. what all the comon produciton issues you wil come across when you do the inventory management
2. what is the dificlut challenge you face during extraction and validation
3. what all things you need to consider or keep in mind while doing this process
4. what is pros and cons of this process ..any bettar way to improve this process?
please shoot me your thougths ..which will helpfull for my new task..

My Dear Friend...
Typical Steps for refreshing your understanding :
1. Transfer Business Content Datasources 2LIS_03_BX , 2LIS_03_BF, AND 2LIS_03_UM in RSA5.
2. Go to Transaction LBWE, Activate Datasources 2LIS_03_BF, AND 2LIS_03_UM.
3. Go to Transaction MCB_ select SAP BW usage 'Standard' Radio button.
4. Save it.
5. Go to Transaction MCNB, enter name of run Stock_init. Enter Termination date in future. Enter Datasource as 2LIS_03_BX.
6. Execute the initialization.
7. Entries can be found in SETUP Table MC03BFSETUP & MC03BFSETUP.
8. Run SETUP for 2LIS_03_BF, AND 2LIS_03_UM using TCodes OLI1BW and OLIZBW respectively.
ALWAYS LOAD in order as BX datasource first then BF datasource and then UM datasource in cube
9. Run the extraction for 2LIS_03_BX in BW.
10. Compress the request with No Marker Update NOT SET i.e. unticked or unchecked.
11. Run the extraction for 2LIS_03_BF in BW.
12. Compress the request with No Marker Update SET i.e. ticked or checked.
13. Run the extraction for 2LIS_03_UM in BW.
14. Compress the request with No Marker Update SET i.e. ticked or checked.
Steps 1 and 2 shall be executed in Development and transported to production and step 3 onward should be carried out in Production itself with posting Block.
And about Reconcilitation of data ...Count the number of records in R/3 in particular table and check with BW is its matching...When you request in Detail Tab you can find the number of records...
Then check if the balances are matching in R/3 and BW...saying for ex: Check opening Stock for today in both the systems...
If you follow the process properly I dont think you will face any issues...I havent ever seen any complication in Inventory loading...Dont worry...Just follow the typical LO Extraction steps...All Good
Regards...
