Exclude batch managed inventory from MI31

How can we exclude those materials that have a batch attached to them from being included in the MI31 selection when it creates thePI document? We have deactivated the batch management tick in the material master, however, there is still stock sitting in the batch so we want to exclude it from the count.

Hi,
Though you have removed the Batch management  indicator in Material master, the created batche won't go anywhere. Stock will be present and will reflect in PI. If you set the batch management indicator in material master and once batch creared and transaction executed, you cannot deactivate the batch management. I hope it gives you clarity. Thanking you.

  • Removal of batch management indicator from material master

    I had removed all batch stock from material code but when trying to remove batch management indicator from material master system is giving the message "batches already exist"
    Please suggest the solution.

    Hi,
       The material is NEW and Batch Managed.  No stocks, orders, batches are existing.
       If the Batch Management indicator is removed in Material Master, is there any way *to see/track the batch/lot * of the product.

  • Changing Batch Management Level from Material to Plant

    Hi all,
    We are investigating changing our batch management level from material to plant to meet business requirements.
    SAP has pointed us to a note with a program to reset the batch level, as well as highlighting some things to look out for.
    I've conducted the change in a playpen system and so far it looks relatively straightforward, with complexities arising only when characteristics exist, or when a batch exists in multiple plants.
    Seems that batch master data is moved from MCH1 to MCHA, including the object link number to classification. Unfortunately it seems a limitation of the conversion is that the batch master data is copied to ONE plant only in MCHA, no doubt due to the fact the object number link to classification must be unique.
    My question is this: has anyone performed this change before, and if so can you offer me any advice on what to look out for, or potential problems that arose after the change?
    Any help or comments are appreciated.
    Mark.

    hi..
    first of all try this simple one...
    You will have to delete all the materials, remove stock and then switch the batch management flag.
    Or
    To convert the batch from plant level to material there is Conversion Program defind by the SAP...
    1. For all releases lower than Release 4.5B, implement the corrections and the modification in the report RM07CHDX as described in the correction instructions.
    2. Create the report ZCHTCUCH, which is specified in the attachment.
    3. Run this report in the clients for which you want to reset batch level to plant level.
    4. Call transaction OMCT.
    5. Check whether the batch level for "Batch unique at plant level" is set.
    6. Implement Notes 821891, 944278, 950540 and 1091613 if you have not already done so (or you have not imported the corresponding Support Package).
    7. Execute the function "Batch Level -> Conversion".
    8. Define a plant for a plant view that may be missing.
    9. Always execute the report in the test mode first. Analyze the error log.
    10. If no errors occur, you can execute the report in production mode.
    11. If you are working with batch long texts, first execute the report ZM07CHDX_TEXT in test mode.
    try this out..hope is works,,
    Thanks..

  • Batch Management Flag on a Delivery Item

    Hey!
    I have an item in a delivery that has the "Batch Management Flag" marked on iten level (material tab and picking tab from delivery). That item doesn´t have a batch associed, then the incompletness log shows the message: "Batches / valuation types not completely allocated"
    I want to make a goods issue directly from the Storage location , without a batch, but the sistem doesn´t allows, even removing the "Batch Management flag" from LIPS-XCHPF.
    How can i make to clear the incompletness log for this delivery or make that delivery complete after removing the flag from LIPS-XCHPF?
    Thanx!

    This Material doesn´t have a Batch associed to the Storage Location, because the Batch Management Flag in material master is not set. This is the problem, i need to make the goods issue directly from the storage location, without a Batch.
    I don´t know why this flag was set in delivery, it´s a closed field and it was set automatically.
    I try to clear this field in table LIPS field XCHPF, but even so the system shows the message in incompletness log of the Delivery and doesn´t allows do the goods issue.

  • Unmark batch management at Material Master Record.

    Hi all:
    Is it possible to unflag the batch management mark from a material (with an existent batch) and use it again?
    The material is already marked for batch management use. An initial stock (with batch) was made.
    Then a necessity to unflag (batch management) the material; arised.
    Stock was deleted and batch marked for deletion at Plant and batch stock level.
    The system doesn't permit to unmark the batch management because it says that "Batches already exist".
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi
    It is not simple task. Make sure you don't have any stock left in the concerned plant(s) for the present and the previous month (the batch management flag is valid for all storage locations of a plant).
    Archive/delete all existing batches for the concerned plant(s).
    Now you should be able to unflag batch management.

  • Physical Inventory & Cycle Couting for Batch Managed Materials

    Hi Friends, pls help me on this scenario
    Physical Inventory
    For a Batch Managed Materials we have hundreds materials and thousands of batches (each batch is equally imp)
    So the first step would be
    Create the documents with MI31 Batch Input session
    Post the count with MI34 Batch Input Session
    See the difference in MI37
    MIDO we get to c the physical inventory overview.
    correct me if i am wrong
    Cycle Count
    This is a seasonal Business and ABC analysis based on requirements n Consumption doesn't work for this process. Is there any way that we can configure the system in SAP which has the ability to fulfill the following scenario.
    They shud be able to select a % of materials from the storage for every month and that way they shud finish counting all of them at the end of their season. Not based on any criteria, just a part of materials ...
    hope i am clear on the requirement..please suggest me something
    thanks

    No,  it will not match, it will create its own document in background.
    Why do you have one created if you dont want to do a selection ?
    You cannot create a document for 1000 materials and then only count 30.
    You either create a document for 30 and count 30 and enter it with MI04, or you dont create a document with SAP, count based on any other paperwork and enter the count as I said with MI09.

  • Converting from finished products non-batch to batch management

    Hi guys,
    Can you tell what is the best strategy to convert a system from non-batch managed to batch managed for the finished and salable product? Batch management should have been implemented from the start, but my client just realized that mistake. This is knowing that we already have inventory and all kinds of transactional data: purchase orders, sales order, production orders...
    I am looking for the less painfull strategy, as detailed as possible.
    Thank you.
    Fotso

    Its going to be painful.............
    1) Reverse all material stocks. Create a new cost center and consume the available stocks to that cost center using 201 mvt type.
    2) If there are any open sale orders for that material delete the line item in those sale orders.
    3) Update the batch management indicator in the material master.
    4) Add back the material in the respective sale orders.
    5) Post the stocks with batches by reversal mvt type 202 from the cost center.
    Regards,
    GSL.

    HI,
    Hi,
    Procedure to be followed to activate Batch Management for Materials: -
    1. Mark Deletion Flag for all the Open Purchasing Documents of Materials
    2. Technical Completion of Production Orders to cancel open Reservations of Materials
    3. Create a Dummy Material for Material (Batch Management Active)
    4. Generate details of Unrestricted Stock of Materials as per Bill of Entry
    5. Transfer Stock of Materials to Dummy Material using Movement Type "309" in previous period (Stock will be transferred Bill of Entry wise)
    6. Activate batch Management for Materials
    7. Transfer Stock from Dummy Material to Materials
    Note: -
    1) If there is stock available in previous period and also stock available in current period then Transfer Posting from Material to Material can be done directly in previous period. (Comparison of Tables MARD and MARDH)
    2) In case if there is stock in previous period but no stock available in current period then we have to post an initial stock entry using movement type "561" to generate stock in current period (Here Quantity = Stock in Previous period)
    3) Reverse these Material Documents in previous period
    There are several SAP notes that give some useful information:
    30656 Change base unit of measure/batch mngt requirement
    533383 Resetting batch management requirement
    533377 Conversion of batch level
    I hope this helps!

  • Changed Material from non-batch to batch-managed

    Dear Gurus,
    Could anyone advise on the steps that I need to perform in order to change the material from non-batch to batch-managed in the material master?
    There are stocks being captured in current month and previous month
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Batch management for existing material can not be done if it has stock and value.You can keep stock value NIL (By reversing) and then proceed with batch management.Batch Management you doing means , you just subdividing the material according to its characterstics of material.
    The Customisation steps are:
    1.Create Characterstics,
    2.Create Class,
    3.In material master, select classification view and tick batch management
    4.Go to Logistic General->Batch Management->Batch Det and back Chk->Condition table-> Define Inventory Management Condition table
    4.2 . Like wise Define Acess Sequense,
    4.3.Strategy Types,
    4.4.batch Serch Procedure,
    4.5.Batch Srech Procedure and allocation,
    4.6..Condition Record: Logistic->Central Function->Batch Management-> Batch Determination->Batch serch Stratergy->For Inventory Manament-> Create
    Once you do all customising steps,Then you can receive the material as per you requirement.Example....Lets say H2SO4,you are receiving 98%,70% and 50% purity.According to you requirement and supply from Vendor you can keep in three different batches.This characterstic of material you can maintain in creating the characterstic ,,step-1.

  • Inventory Audit Report - Not followed FIFO and Batch management

    I have created an Item say XYZ, with Batch management and valuation methode FIFO.
    Then I have created a batch say 1 with posting of opening balance transaction with posting date as 1st April 2009.
    Now when I post an A/R Invoice with posting date as 19th May 2009 in which I have selected above batch.
    I have also posted some more purchase transaction for same item before 19th May 2009 that is the date of sales invoice.
    Now when I see Inventory Audit Report, system has not picked up the cost column as per Batch selection in A/R Invoice, and also not as per FIFO, but it has followed the system date of transaction for deriving cost as per FIFO.
    Can anybody throw light on this ?
    BR
    Samir Gandhi

    Dear Samir Gandhi,
    Irrespective of posting date you use for document posting, with FIFO Method system will arrange all the inventory posting in layers with First inventory posting will form the base for first inventory movement out and so on
    Example:
    1st Entry:(Opening Balances)
    posting date : 01/04/09    Item : XYZ    quantity : 5   Unit cost price : 100
    2nd Entry: Purchase
    posting date : 01/05/09    Item : XYZ    quantity : 5   Unit cost price : 105
    3rd Entry: Purchase
    posting date :25/04/09    Item : XYZ    quantity : 5   Unit cost price : 90
    Layers created :
    1.    Item : XYZ    quantity : 5   Unit cost price : 100
    2.     Item : XYZ    quantity : 5   Unit cost price : 105
    3.     Item : XYZ    quantity : 5   Unit cost price : 90
    4th Entry : Sales
    Item : XYZ    quantity : 8  
    So here cost of goods sold will be : ( 5x100)+ ( 3x105) = 815
    and it wont be  ( 5x100)+ ( 3x90) =770 if that's what you are expecting

  • Specific Identification Cost for batch managed items (Follow-Up from P2P)

    Specific Identification Cost method is used for serial and batch managed item. Using this method, the outbound cost of such items would be the original cost of specific goods, which can be determined according to the serial or batch number of that item.
    Business One allows the user to receive batch managed items with a batch number that already exists in the DB. It’s possible that the received quantity is added to on-hand quantity in the warehouse. In such case, the quantity on-hand of that batch and the received quantity may have different costs.
    What should be the system behavior in such case:
    1. Block receipts to the same batch with different costs.
    2. Write the difference to a price difference account, as done in Standard Cost method.
    3. Manage the batch cost with Moving Average method.
    This thread is continuation from 'Specific Identification Cost for batch managed Items' <a href="http://p2p.sap.com/businessoneforum?type=join&login=1&uid=41FB661A76CED536C825C4E2B6FF4397&cid=91&go=z37225">discussion</a> in P2P SAP Business One Forum (Product Development Collaboration).
    Previous discussion on P2P is summarized in the attached file.

    Hi Peter,
    This is a very important functionality that you are describing here. For example, in the Steel industry, it could be extremely useful to cost by batch or serial number.
    If you receive a batch that already exists in the system and if the costing method for the product is moving average, then teh cost of the batch should be calculated based on the moving average as well.
    If the costing method is standard, then the cost should go in a variance account.
    If the costing method is FIFO, then it is a getting trickier...
