Enterprise structure

Dear friends,
Iam Implimenting SAP.
Company gets order from customer for setting up power plant, Our client manufactures all the connected mat like turbines,switch gear,compressors ,,etc.
These are manufactured at each unit respectively in same compound.Each unit is having raw material store,finished stor,semi finshed store,
there are 2 common material stores used by all the units, each store is having raw material stores/returns stores,dispatch stores,finished stores,cut to sizes shop where all material is cut to sizes.This cut to size is also within the store.
How to map this scenario as enterprise structure.
How cut to store in Store is mapped.whether stores like return stores,semifinished stores,raw material ,dispacth store all are defined as stores.These common stores are to defined under which plant.
Whether the intermediatory store is also defined as one store.each plant materials is procured by one pur org.and common stores materials are procured by 3 other purchase organisations.
How to define enterprise structure.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Cheruku.Dayanand

if ur plant is using the material which is procured by many organizations then i think u need to go through the funda of reference purh. org. and standard pur. org
that is if ur plant is assigned to no. of org. then u have to assign some of them to ur plant and assign 1 of them as standard org
and if some head office or centralized org. is also involved in procurement for plant then assign that one as refrence org. for u r plant level org.
and i belive u need to look from wherehouse management point of view because in mm u only have storage location but if go in depth then go for wherehouse management

  • Plant adress change in enterprise structure .

    Hi All,
            During print preview of purchase order in delivery address only plant name is coming which it is taking from the delivery address maintained in Item detail of PO .This address is fetched from the plant address maintained in SPRO-> enterprise structure-> logistics general ->
    define,copy,delete,check plant ->define plant .So if I change the address now in denelopment and transport it to production will that be any harm to the system .Why I am asking this question is ,I heard enterprise structure is very critical portion ,so we should not touch it after 4 months of SAP running in a plant .
               Anybody who is 100% sure reply .

    Hi,
    It is correct that you should not hamper the Enterprise Structure in a Production Environment. But if it is regarding deletion of any Organisational Element or assignment of Organisational Element or removing the assignment of any Organisational Element, etc...
    If it is regarding Plant Address change then it is OK, you can do it.

  • Enterprise Structure-Company Code/Customer Master

    Hey Friends,
    I have a question here. Consider that there is a production system ABC. Within ABC When I go to the company code transaction within the Financial accounting, I see a list of lot of company codes existing. Also I saw that not all the company codes have their related data, by this I mean that I saw that certain company codes have no data like no vendors,no customers existing for that company code. I just want to figure out whats the real Enterprise structure within the system ABC.
    ,Not only based on SPRO, but to investigate actual data in some of the data tables...to get a 'real' enterprise structure. since from actual data in tables, we can tell if we're truly selling to what countries etc.  
    Can you tell me how do I analyze this. Do I check each of the company codes and check if we have any reevant dat for the company code. Also do I see what customer master exists under the particular company code in order to determine which countries we are selling to?
    Please can you answer in detail and explain me?
    Appreciate it. Thanks.

    Use tcode SE16.
    provide Table Name KNB1 - Customer Master (Company Code) and press enter.
    In Data Browser: Table KNB1: Selection Screen, put Maximum No. of Hits as blank and execute (F8 from keyboard).
    There you will be list of Customer Master with respective company code.
    Hope this can assist you.
    All the best and take care.

    Hi Priya,
    The Enterprise Structure represents the structure of a company according to personnel administrative, time management and payroll perspectives. The company structure describes elements of the company and there dependencies.
    The 'Organizational Units' in SAP, are the elements or structures representing the business functions, and are used in reporting. for example, Client (across the various modules), Company Code (FI), Controlling area (CO), Plant (logistics), sales organization (SD), Purchasing organization (MM), Employee Group (HR) etc.

  • Enterprise structure -work from home employees

    Hi all,
    We are in the process of setting up our Enterprise Structure. PA will be set up as 4 physical offices of the company in US. PSA as to be set up as Divisions of the company. We also have work from home employees working at different locations (15 states) in USA. Right now they are tracked statewise. They are categorized by work from home- per state. Also all work from home employees are treated the same way as other employees who work from office locations in terms of benefits and pay. They are considered as Active employees in current legacy system.
    I want the advise on how to go ahead for setting up PA, PSA, EG and ESG for thses emplyees. One option is to set up 15 personnal areas as 15 states which will divide the work from home emp (in addition to 4 PAs as offices) or the other is just to set up one PA for all homebase employees in US and then maintain their locations/states somewhere else.
    Has anyone come across the same situation ? How the work from home emp. in other companies are categorized? Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Manoj and Sikinder.
    And how to categorize them under PA? As I said ealier, we have 4 PAs as physical offices and I am confused where to put the work from employees in Enterprise Structure.
    Kindly suggest.
    Thanks.

  • Business Area in Enterprise Structure

    Can someone please explain the purpose of Business Area/Business Unit in the Enterprise Structure? I'm wondering, functionally, how it is different from personnel area and personnel subarea, as we use the PA and PSA to distinguish  between departments and business units, respectively. Are there integration differences, or is there not a significant difference?
    Thanks for any replies and help.
    -Nick

    Hey Nick,
    If you bring up the help on Business Area within the IMG, you get the following:
    Define Business Area
    Use
    In this section you create business areas. A business area is an
    organizational unit within accounting that represents a separate area of
    operations or responsibilities in a business
    organization.
    When defining a business area, you enter a four-character alphanumeric key
    and the name of the business area.
    In a client, you can set up
    several business areas to which the system can assign the postings made in all
    company codes defined in
    this client. To ensure consistency in document entry, you should give business
    areas the same name in all company codes.
    You make all other specifications for your business areas in the Financial
    Accounting Implementation Guide.
    So as this and Theo also indicated above, this is relevant for FI.
    Hope this helps!

  • Mapping of enterprise structure

    Dear Experts,
                 Right now i am doing implementation project in aluminium metal plant.Now we are in the 2nd phase of the project.So i have to map the enterprise structure of the plant.
               There are main 5 departments in the plant GAP,BAKE OVEN,RODDING,POTROOM,CASTING.Here all the departments finished products are interrelated,like GAP finished goods will go to BAKE OVEN. BAKE OVEN finished goods will go to RODDING.RODDING finihed goods will move to POTROOM.POTROOM molten metal will move to CASTHOUSE,and finally metal from CASTHOUSE will go to customers.
             So here how can i map this scenario, like i have to create 5 plants for 5 departments or 5 sections?
    Regards,
    Prashantha

    Greetings Prashantha,
    You need to approach this from a functional perspective. Define what is the Plant in SAP. A Plant is a location, which has an address, a language, time zone etc. and for this Plant the maintenance is planned as a whole on some level. Many configurations in PM are done on Plant level. Also, note that the Material Master data is maintained on Plant level.
    So taking this all into account, consider whether those elements are different for the 5 Departments you mention? I would venture a guess "no". Your departments will have distinct Functional Location hierarchy branches, distinct Planner Groups, their own Work Centres, perhaps their own Storage Locations, but I assume they will have the same processes, the same Company Code, the same high-level Maintenance Planning Plant, the same Order Types. So it is probably reasonable to use Plant Sections, Planner Groups etc. to differentiate below the Plant level.
    But of course, this is dependent on your business and how it is organised.

    Hey Sreekanth:
    I think u did not get my question. I know that data like vendor and customer has to be maintained.
    Just imagine that I have a productions system with say no transaction going on. I just want to see whats the real enterprise structure, want to know what countries we are selling to based on the data tables, how do I do that?

    Hi Parul,
    You can keep your enterprise structure as follows:
    Company Code: ABC Limited
    Personal Area: ABC Limited
    Personal Subarea: ABC, Hyderabad
    As suggested by you, in future we may have different branches for ABC India, which can be added in Personal Subareas.
    IT, Herbal and Pharma, Biotech, Chem and Research- these can become the part of your organisational structure, since these all units belongs to ABC, H'bad.
    Hope this help.

  • Enterprise Structure  in SAP PP

    Can anybody suggest me about suggested enterprise structure in PP. In other way what should be minimum organisational structure needed to run PP objectives. Is it same as MM or different?

    Hi Kumar
    As far as PP in SAP R/3 is concerened.
    We create only one enterprise structure that is MRP Area. This will be of three types, one is plant MRP area same as plant . another is storage location MRP area and other is Subcontract MRP area.
    We use all other enterprise structure created by MM and FICO
    but we have to maintain certain parameter for the structure created by MM and FICO.  Ex Plant parameter.
    All others like MRP group,MRP controller, Schedule margin key etc., are not enterprise structures.

  • SD Enterprise structure

    Dear Experts,
    other than normal sales,my customer is planning to do job work sales also.
    Regarding SD Enterprise structure,how can i handle it.Is it right to create seperate divsion for job work
    Any idea?
    Regards,
    murali.R

    Murali,
    Usually this process is carried out in MM as subcontracting process. If you require it in SD then depending upon no of occurences we can maintain a seperate Division.
    Subcontracting/Job work in SD will come into picture only if you procure some material from a  Customer and you do some operations or add value to that Material and sell  the same to Customer or Vendor
    In SD we can use Consignment Process
    1. Fill up wherein we procure material from the customer and keep it as seperate stock.
    2. Make the necessary changes in the material and issue it to the same customer
    A normal pricing procedure should be used without ED, Cess and Tax.
    When you send the whole quantity back to customer return the original 57f4 challan duly filled.
    Regards
    Sathya
