EWM Physical Inventory

Folks,
Can someone please give me the detailed configuration steps required for physical inventory.I have a lot of config issues around tolerance groups and activating the difference analyzer.
Thanks
Kiran

SPRO-Warehouse Management- Activities- physical inventory u2013 define default values.
1.     WH No / Storage types/ activate check box for print material / nos of bins/ no material / entry (A)-double line entry ( keep it blank- not required u2013 if you want to enter count twice on same page then it required)- Difference ( Enter the difference value u2013 this entry due to which if your actual entered value is more then book inventory then system issues warning message) u2013 Next page ( not required to activate)
2.     Define types per storage type- WH/ Storage type/Inventory type (PZ- continuous inventory or ST u2013 Annual inventory)
There is different option in this customization setting u2013 do it as per your business requirement u2013 like cycle counting u2013 if you are going with cycle counting then set ABC analysis in material master u2013 then only it has a more meaning to do physical inventory with cycle counting / zero stock check etc.
3.     Define difference and document limit.
WH No/ post invent -712 ( mvt type)  / clear invent -711 ( mvt type) u2013 Document item ( nos of line items per inventory document)
4.      Clear difference ( interface to inventory Management)
MM-IM Movement Types for Clearing Inventory
***          712     711
***     Q     714     713
***     R     716     715
***     S     718     717
5.     Do Not Allow Clearing in Storage Types- activate check box for all interim storage type ( except 999)
6.     Maintained number ranges.
I think this is a complete u2013 please let me know if required any further info.
Thanks

  • EWM: Annual Physical Inventory Issue

    Hello together!
    I'm looking for cute (use SAP default) solution for the following problem:
    For a EWM warehouse in Turkey it's possible to do Ad-hoc physical inventory for products during the year. Nevertheless it's necessary to do a complete annual physical inventory due to legal regulations. But the SAP default provides message "Storage bin XY was already inventoried in the physical inventory year" when trying to start the annual physical inventory.
    Is it possible to avoid this message and proceed the annual physical inventory? Is it possible to delete the Ad-hoc physical inventory results to be able to start the annual physical inventory? I found transaction "/SCWM/PI_COMPL_DEL" to delete completeness data sets?!?
    Thank you very much for your help!
    best regards
    Alexander

    Hi Alexander!
    When you create PI document in /SCWM/PI_DOC_CREATE set the checkbox "Include Inventoried Objects"

  • Issue while posting physical inventory document

    Hi Team,
    While posting a physical inventory document system is giving error message saying that
    HU exists at another point in the warehouse. Clear the HU first
    Message no. /SCWM/GM751
    here is my scenario: As per the system bin is empty, while doing physical inventory we found and counted one HU in the same bin. while posting the same physical inventory document we are getting the above error message. as per the system this HU available in some other bin.
    could you please let us know is there any process which i am missing before posting the PI document.
    while posting the PI document is it not possible automatically HU get move from one bin to other bin?
    Thanks
    Mastan

    Hi  kmastanrao
    All above suggestion given need to check.
    1. Check HU available in WH. In EWM monitor and HU details.
    And after finding the status of HU and use as you need in your process.
    second if needed I can provide HU table in EWM which can be used.

  • Need help in creating a Physical Inventory Document with HUs given

    Hi Gurus,
    There is a problem I am facing while doing a ALV report.
    I have created the report and there is a button which i have fixed which has to create Physical Inventory Document.
    The scenario is:
    I will select the records in the report based on the Vessel Bill Of Lading (VBOL) (related to Batch characteristics of a material) and then i need to pass those values to create Physical Inventory Document.
    I got a functional module HUINV_DOCUMENT_CREATE which will create the document but I am not clear what are the values that I need to pass in this.
    Or do anyone know how to create the Document by passing HU (Handling Units) and Plant & Storage Location?
    Please help me in the same.
    Thanks and Regards
    Vipin Das V

    Hi ,
            Just Pass the table of Handling Unit .That's all.

  • Physical Inventory Movement Block not Rest at Storage Location Level

    Hi,
    We are facing a typical problem in our Production System and the issue is as follows:
    1. We have created a Physical Inventory Document for a material with Freeze Book Inventory and Posting Block indicators.
    2. We completed the count and entered the same with reference to the PI Document.
    3. We reconciled and posted the differences in the system.
    4. We still find that in Material Master the Physical Inventory block for material movements was not reset automatically at the Storage Location stock view.
    Please help us urgently as all our Goods movements for this material are held up.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I am able to see 4 PIDs in MI22 for my material.
    2 docs pertaining to the latest Annual Physical Inventory in 2010.
    These documents are for the same material in the same plant but for different Storage Locations. Out of which when i see the Material Master - Storage Location view, i see that the Physical Inventory Block "X" is set for one of the Storage Locations.
    The PID for the Storage Location with this Physical Inventory Block for Movements indicator, is already settled (Count done and no differences in physical and book stock in this storage location).
    The problem persists and i need to remove the posting block which was not reset.

  • Physical Inventory at Storage location level

    hi.,
    Environment  ECC 6.0
    Our suggestion on Physical inventory at the client site was as per SAP
    "If the flag for posting block is set then no movements can be posted for that material. Note that the inventory document should be created at a material / plant / storage location level so as to not block that material at other storage locations. If a block is not required then do not flag the “Set posting block” indicator. It is always prudent to restrict the amount of materials being counted and to clear the count results quickly so business is not interrupted"
    CLIENT feedback: " Like wise we asked the client to make the selection by Plant = 1000, SLoc = 100, and WBS =2312-344-332 and checked Posting Blocked.
    My understanding was that this selection would block only the 1000/100/WBS location.
    Client is having a problem is that people trying to transact in a SLoc other than 100 (200, 300, 400)  are experiencing the “Blocked” warning.
    I know I heard that we can inventory a Storage location in SAP and lock it and the rest of the sites could continue without interruption.
    Any suggestions on how we can achieve this.
    Tx

    Hi,
    Are you setting teh posting block at the time of creation of physical inventory document or by running MI32 later?
    If you are running MI32, then ensure that you enter teh storage locations correctly, else the material irrespective of storage locatioons may get blocked.
    Hope this helps

  • Error while creating physical inventory document with zero count

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a physical inventory document for a material that has zero stock and that is not batch managed but I am geting an error as below.
    "Item 001: No batches that can be included in phys. inv. exist.(Message no. M7701)"
    This error occurs only for one or two materials.
    I am able to create the physical inventory document for other materials which is also zero stock and there is no batch managed for the same.
    Can anyone pls advice.
    Regards,
    Ramya

    hi
    if your material is split valuated, but not batch managed, then the split valuation type is shown in field batch number. And...it is a batch then.
    To be able to do a zero count you have to have a batch record whose batch number is the valuation type.
    If you never had stock in the storage location you want count, then you have to
    1. extend the material to this storage location with MMSC
    2. create the batch record with MSC1N for this storage location.

  • Error while activating WM Physical Inventory doc..........

    Hi All,
    While activating an WM physical inventory doc (LI02N) I am getting error as follows:
    "Number of allowed bins exceeded after storage bin 01-01-01
    Message no. L4063"
    Warehouse in SU Managed & has Bin-Sectioning upto 3 -sections.
    Kindly let me know if any more data is required.
    Regards,
    NVK

    Hi,
    I think it is because of the maxinum number of items limited for your warehouse in the SPRO setting LE -> Activities -> PI -> Define differences and document limits. Check the max number of bins/quants allowed per PI document for your warehouse.

  • Error While Doing Physical Inventory (Customer Stock)

    Pls. help in solving the problem.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    before you go any further you should first check with your finance team that the correct GL account is being proposed. the reason that the fields don't match may be caused by the fact that the wrong GL has been set up in the auto tables (Trans event Key GBB, account modifier INV and whatever valuation area and valuation class is relevant).
    If the GL account is found to be the correct one then you need to get someone from the FI team to change the field settings on that account to enable the correct data to be linked to it.
    None of this is the domain of an MM consultant apart fron the auto account tables and so please do involve your FI team before you do too much.

  • Material blocked due to a physical inventory

    Hello,
    I have an issue.
    I have done a stock take via MI01, MI21, MI04 and finally MI20!
    When I afterwards create a delivery with one of that part that was counted it gives me an error message saying:
    M7100 - Material xxx blocked due to a physical inventory
    When I look into the inventory document it says: Counted, adjusted.
    While debugging I found out that the process somewhere checks MARD-SPERR which is X for that part and therefore outputs messsage M7100!   But X only indicates that posting block was set while physical inventory was done!
    Does someone have an idea? Is there maybe a report to verify and correct inventory status?
    Hope someone can help, cause I've counted a hundreds of parts which are now blocked.
    Thanks for your reply.
    Wolfgang

    Hello Wolfgang,
    If you enter the differences for your physical inventory documents against those materials, then the posting block check shall automatically go off and you can do the material movements.
    First, you need to check whether you posted the differences for the respective physical inventory document.
    If not you need to post the difference first as it may lead to data inconsistencies.
    To remove the posting block go to MI02, enter the physical inventory document number and year, now go to Header and untick the posting block check box.
    Posting block indicator
    The indicator remains in the physical document header even if the stock is unblocked through the posting of inventory differences. It then only indicates that a posting block was set for the documents.
    The blocking indicator can be set in one of two ways:
    Directly upon entry of the physical inventory document (if the count is to take place immediately)
    Shortly before the count (if the count is to take place later)
    You can set the indicator by choosing Physical inventory document -> Change in the header data of the physical inventory document or via batch input.
    Now you can create delivery for the materials.

  • Posting a physical inventory document

    Hi  Experts,
    My colleague was posting a physical inventory doc through transaction MI07 last month, January. However, we got an error which says period 012/2009 is not open for account type S and the G/L account. I noticed that the posting date of the inventory doc is by december. in addition to that, we could not open the 012/2009 period. we tried posting it this month but we still got the same error. I appreciate any comment regarding this. Thanks!
    Edited by: Bryce Larken on Feb 25, 2010 9:25 AM

    there are 2 requirement, the posting period in finance (OB52)  has to be open for postings, and the MM period has to be open for posting.
    In MM you can only post to current and previous period.  Even you still can post to last year in Finance, MM does not allow this anymore as we currently have February and december is not the previous period to February.
    Hence you have only one option; Delete the inventory document in MI02, and create a new inventory document and conduct the count.  Take it as learning experience. Next time you will post documents in the SAP given allowed time frame.

    A physical inventory document has to be created, but the storage location is subject to handling unit management.
    Physical inventory in Inventory Management does not support handling units.
    please advice
    regards

    Hi
    For MB1C
    Try to understand whether a materia document has been created or not.
    For this aim check MB51 with relevant parameters (that you have done MB1C such as material number,mov. type:561, posting date etc)
    If not then this shows that it hasnt been done i mean no update.
    Try MB1c again
    For the other issue
    You can use all the functions of Inventory Management, with the exception of the following:
    u2022 Physical inventory in Inventory Management does not support Handling Unit Management.

  • Transaction code for mass creation of physical Inventory document

    what is the transaction code for mass creation of physical Inventory document.

    MI31 is the transaction to create hundreds of physical inventory documents for annual inventory at a time.
    MICN can create several documents at a time for cycle count.
    Just look in the menu of phyiscal inventory into the knot Sessions, there are even more e.g. for counting of own stock a customer and vendor location, for vendor stock at own location etc.
