Erasing serial numbers for material

Hi
can anyone help me out with the following?
pls tell me how can we erase some serial numbers of a particular material?

Hi,
You cann't remove the serial no which is assigned to the material.
You can modify the serial no which is already assigned to that material.
If you had entered the wrong serial number and want to change the serial number
goto Transaction -IQ02. Enter the material and correct serial number.
then in Edit --> Special Serial No Functions --> Change Serial No
save the material number

  • In Purchase Order Line item Maintaining Serial Numbers for Material Codes

    Dear Gurus,
    We have a business process in legacy system for Purchase Order like in PO line item, Material code with description, Quantity, unit of Measurement, Serial Number Start and Serial Number End is maintained, for example for Material code when we enter the data AXMLN00001 in Serial Number Start column, if the Qty 500 is maintained, by default system will calculate AXMLN00500 in Serial Number End column. 
    We understand that in standard SAP we donu2019t have this option of maintaining Serial Number Start and End in Purchase order Line item. Please let us know how this can be mapped and is it advisable to create two Z fields in EKPO table or else can we make any development.
    Suppose if this is not possible in SAP for PO then in Banks if we want to place a order for Cheque books how we can maintain Start and End Serial Numbers to print in cheque books.
    Also client is not agreeing to maintain manually Serial numbers in item text.

    Aamir,
    When the PO Item was created say for example Material had Valuation category "Y" and latter you wanted to change the category to "Y". Now system would have check for all open PO's etc...based on this you must have set Deletion Indicator to this Line Item to allow valuation category change in material master. Now when this Item got created in the table level (EKPO), system updates the valuation category "Y". Currently this valuation category is not active so it would not allow you to perform removal of deletion indicator as program cannot automatically nor you have an option to manually update the valuation category to this Item.

  • Serial Number for material document number

    Hi All,
    Can any body tel me where Serial number stores for particular Material Document number.
    When user creation/posting MB11 he will enter serial numbers for material in material document.
    I already searched the forum. Unluckily i didn't received any related information.
    Thanks in Advance.
    NK

    I Tried looking standard table which contain Material number, Serial number, Equipment and Material Document but there isn't any.
    So I went into SQVI and join two tables, MSEG and OBJK. There I manually draged the MATNR from MSEG Table to OBJK and then selected the fields like Materials Number, Plant, Material Document, Mov Type etc and from other table I selected Material Number plus Serial Number, Equipment (chose your required filters) and then executed and it shows the required records correctly.
    Only issue it had was that if you try thousands of records e.g. Materials it went though and brought resukts and some time it dumped.  But it fulfilled my needs successfully.

  • Can we capture two types of Serial Numbers for a material?

    Hi,
    I have scenario where i need to capture two different types of serial numbers for a material. This scenario is very similar to the below one -
    Say if a CAR is a serialized material, then i want to capture engine no. and chasis no. for each car.
    I know in standard serial number management, we can capture one kind of serial no. for an item, but can we capture two types of serial number for an item? If yes, how we can do that?
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Parimal.

    Hi,
    No it is not possible to have two serial numbers for a material.
    The main attribute of a serial number is that it is UNIQUE.
    You can better have the vehicle number as the required serial number and the other numbers under the Manufacturer data of the General data tab of the IQ01 transaction. ( Equipment master creation ).
    You can better change the name of the manufacturer data such as Model number to Engine numeber and Manu serial no to Chasis no etc.., using CMOD transactions.

  • Unable to allocate the Serial Numbers for PO receipts?

    Hi,
    I want to allocate the serial numbers for the PO receipts for this i have done the following steps. (we are using the 11.5.10.2 version)
    Serial Control at Organization Parameter Level is
    Uniqueness With in Inventory items
    Generation At Item level
    Case 1: Items > Inventory Tab
    Serial
    Generation at Receipt
    Prefix xxx
    Serial 001
    Now, i have created the PO While performing the receipts the Lot/Serial tab is not enabled
    Note: I have generated the serial numbers from the On-Hand quantity > Generate Serial Numbers. then raised the PO and then performed the PO receipt.
    Important: Under Items >Inventory Tab here the Material status for Serials is disabled and Material Status is not found under Setup > Transactions, is this feature is new in R12, please clarify this dount also.
    Pleae advice.
    Regards,
    Kevin.

    Hi Kevin,
    I'm not sure whether you already got the answer for your issue.
    If you are still looking for answer then, can you check the following:
    - The INV org in which you have entered the serial number generation details (Prefix, starting serial no etc) for the item is same as the receiving org for PO receipt
    - While doing PO receipt the "Destination Type" is Inventory
    Material status control functionality for Lot and Serial is not new in R12. It is also available in 11.5.10. However your issue is not linked to Material Status for Serial.
    The default Serial status is 'Active' To define additional material statuses to be used in INV you need to use WMS responsibility even if you are not using WMS.
    Thanks

  • Serial Numbers for Production Orders

    Hi All
    Can anyone tell me the table in which the serial numbers are stored for the production orders?  I have created a production order and have assigned serial numbvers to it.  Now I want to extract these serial numbers from the table.
    Thanks in advance.
    Tom

    Hello Jack,
    In table SER05, the list of serial number details can be obtained.key the order noin ser05 table, get field OBJKNR, then pass this OBJKNR in table OBJK .
    Some useful table for serial numbers
    SER00 Generic table for serial numbers
    SER01 Serial numbers assigned to a delivery
    SER02 Serial numbers assigned to a guarentee
    SER03 Serial numbers assigned to a material document
    SER04 Serial numbers assigned to an inspection lot
    SER05 Serial numbers for a production order
    SER06 Serial numbers for Handling Units
    SER07 Serial numbers for Stocktaking
    SER08 serial numbers for Orders (SD)
    The assignment of serial numbers to a production order can be done either via transaction CO02 or at the latest when the GR from Production is made.
    I hope that this information clarifies the issue.

  • Serial Numbers for Raw Materials

    Hello All,
    We are not using serial numbers at the moment, but we would like to assign a serial number to each material that enters the warehouse. So not on finished goods, but on raw materials. If we for instance order 10 boxes of a material, we would like to create 10 different serial numbers for these boxes (in MIGO).
    Batch management is not the solution, since the 10 boxes would receive the same number, whereas we want a unique number per box.
    Is this possible?
    Regards, Marc
    Edited by: japie303 on May 12, 2009 1:08 PM

    Thanks for your replies.
    We already have storage unit types, one of them is "Box". So in the warehouse mgmt 2 tab, an entry has been made which looks like:
        LE quantity          Un         Sut
    1. 100                     Ea         Box
    This works nicely when goods are putaway: the system suggests that if there are 1000 materials ready for putaway, 10 boxes are delivered and thus 10 storage bins are required.
    The only thing that fails is that there will be 1000 serial numbers generated, instead of 10. Handling Unit management is no option, because that brings a lot of workload with packing and unpacking goods. Changing the base unit of measure to box is not an option, since a box is no unit of measure.

  • Serial Numbers for delivery

    Hi,
    i am cerated serial no. But it created only one no.
    when i am cerated outbound delivery, serial no. is assigned.
    But when i am trying to PGI showing the following error
    Pls help me out
    Item 000010 requires exactly 5 serial numbers for the asset
    Regards,
    Rao P

    Hi Mr. Rao,
    Looks like your material configure in that way, it requires 5 serial number.
    You do one thing --> Go to IQ04 --> Give your maerial number --> Then in the field "No. serial numbers" give the figure how many serial number you want --> Like one you have already created --> Give 4 in the field "No. serial numbers" --> Enter
    If your serial number require equipment view also --> then click at "View selection" --> Click at equipment --> Enter --> Save
    After that go to delivery and assign your serial number to your materials.

  • Serial Numbers for stock on hand.

    Hi guys,
    I want to migrate stock on hand of finished goods. I also have to migrate serial numbers for these finished goods. But, i cant find a transaction where I can do this!!! Can anyone help pls!? 
    I tried to do GR in MIGO, but the serial number tab opens up only for GR towards an order.

    Hello Sandeep,
    1. As suggested by Dillibabu, you need to maintain your material with Sr number profile as per the business needs.
    Please check the sr number profile usage in T-code OIS1 and OIS2 (Configuration mode - SPRO)
    2. There are two option to upload/migrate the data
    a. Manual Approch : incase, you have very few data you can think about this approch.
    b. LSMW : Use LSMW if you have mass data migration, the object is provided by SAP for goods movement.
    Object               0110   Goods movement
    Method              0000
    Program Name   RM07MMBL
    Program Type     B   Batch Input
    Take the help from technical guy if you are new to LSMW.
    Hope this helps.

  • Serial Numbers for Sales Orders

    We have a business Process where we do not maintain any serial numbers for the products. How ever one of our customer maintains serial numbers for the products that come to their warehouse.
    This customer will send in the serial numbers for each material and quantity in the inbound 850 Idoc and he wants those serial numbers to be printed on top of the boxes. so that he can scan them while receiving the GR and do automatic posting at thier system.
    we have to store this serial numbers against this sales order and print them in the shipping tags for the finished products  that are to be sent to  this customer.
    Now
    1) we do not want to use serial number profiles because it effects every sales order / delivery created for that material. the serial numbers should be assigned only to the orders from this specific customer.  Is there any way to acheive this?
    2) in the sap idoc 850 ( message type ORDERS05) how do we store the serial numbers. what segment and fields are available for this purpose. 
    3) how to save this serial numbers in the sap system against the sales order created for this customer.
    Your answers will be highy appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Thanks for all those wonderful replies..
    I am looking more at  a standard solution. with minor changes..
    Storing the serial numers in text items is possible but not practical, the more the quantity the more difficult and time consuming is this process for ex if this customer orders 10,000 qty. then it would be tough.. and again to solve that problem we have to break   the qty into multiple line items and this is only a alternatve but not a good solution i guess.
    I thought  this scenario should be more in practice because, customers can request us to put their serial numbers on the packing boxes that we send them.
    So just wondering if any our colleagues have already worked in this scenario.. While doing a search I saw a couple of questions regarding the same situations back in 2005 and 2007  but the questions were marked as answered without mentioning the solution they approached to solve this problem.
    Can any of you suggest me whether is this scneario a standard one ?

    Hi Durai,
    1. First You need to assign the Serial number profile in Material Master under Plant data2.
    2. System will create serial numbers at the time of production order release.
    3. a) In QM point of view under Inspection type active tick mark in Serial numbers.
    b) Your MIC should be single result recording and Sample size should be 100%.
    C) with r. to above you can record the result as well as stock posting done serial number wise.
