Finish Product Packing Query

Hi all,
I have a query regarding FERT.
Here at the client end, we are having a scenario, listed point wise below:
1. Industry is a Chemical Industry.
2. FERT is manufactured in a continuous process, hence Production Dept. is not sure about the despatch qty. and packing material at the time of production order creation / confirmation.
3. The FERT over here is actually treated as a HALB, and the Qty. which will get despatched along with the Packing Material is treated as FERT, hence to convert HALB to FERT, there is a production order generated, whose BOM contains HALB + Packing Material and Routing contains Packing Operation.
Problem faced in PP:
1. Production is not sure which is the packing mtrl. and hence need to create an extra Production Order, just to convert this HALB to FERT.
2. More than 1 Material Code exists for FERT, i.e. as per the Type of Packing Material.
3. At the time of Reporting for a FERT, they have to refer more than 1 material code.
Query
How can we map Different Packing Material for FERT with a Single Material Code ?
Thanks in advance,
Harris Panchal

Dear,
Good solution given By Mr. Dhaval,
Alternative BOM is the best option in this case along with PV.
I will suggest you could consider the option of Creating these Materials as Bulk Materials.
Better not to include them in the BOM.
The advantage of handling these in this way is:
Every body knows in your shopfloor, that what packing is to be use for your product.
You can use the T. Code ; MB1A and Movement 201 (Consumption for Cost Center from Warehouse.
Hope it will help you.

Finished product as packaging material

Dear experts,
Plz help. Many thanks.
Background: Product A is finished product and can be sold. Meanwhile, it can be used as packaging material for another finished product B. However, only B has selling price as customers only buy B.
Q1: Can product A be maintained as packaging material and finished product as well? Any impact on accounting?
Q2: If answer for Q1 is yes, can product A be used to create sales order together with B? You know, product A also need production. Production department want production requirements from sales orders (say Tcode MD04). Meanwhile, they're required to pack B with A before warehouse receives B.
Q3: If answer for Q1\2 is no, how to solve?

Hi Cathy,
You only need to do the normal packaging material related masterdata maintanence and configurations. I created a query long ago and was answered by many people on packaging. I am giving you the link. Please go to the thread to know how to enable packing. Using this set up, you can do multilevel packaging or any kind of packaging you want.

Normal sales doesnt need any explanation here.

Stocking Level- Two levels below the finished product

Hi all,
I want to maintain stock two levels below the finished product in MTO environment...How can i acheive this in SAP...Also i want to maintain forecast one level below the finished product..Please give ur expert opinion in order to achieve this requirement..
Actually scenario is Packed liquid is my finished material and forecast is given at liquid level and both these levels are not produced until a sales order arrives...i am taking liquid as SFG, please suggest otherwise if i m not moving in right direction.
Thx
Shah

Hi,
Kindly follow the steps mentioned below, I hope it addresses your query.
Warm regards,
Umesh
Process Scenario & the BOM structure
Level 1: ZURP_PKG_LIQUID <Sales order received here>
Level 2: ZURP_LIQUID < Forecast done here to plan lower level materials, this material is planned on the receipt of sale order at higher level>
Level 3: ZURP_RM_LIQUID < Procured/Produced and kept in inventory>
Step no 1: OMP0  use Requirement class u2018103u2019 or create a copy u2018Z70u2019
Step no 2: OMP1  create a new requirement type u2018Z70u2019 and assign the Requirement class u2018103u2019 to it.
Step no 3: SPRO  define a new strategy u20187Tu2019 and assign requirement type u2018Z70u2019
Step 4: SPRO  create strategy group u20187Tu2019 & assign the strategy u20187Tu2019
Step 5: MM02 u2013 MRP3 view  Assign this strategy to material code ZURP_LIQUID at which forecast is done
In MRP4 view leave the individual/collective indicator blank
For Material ZURP_PKG_LIQUID  maintain strategy group as u201820u2019
For Material ZURP_RM_LIQUID  maintain strategy group as u201810u2019 & individual/collective indicator as u20182u2019
Step 6: MD61  Create Planned independent requirement for ZURP_LIQUID
Step 7: MD02  Execute MRP for ZURP_LIQUID
Note: Planned orders for ZURP_LIQUID are created, but they cannot be converted into Production order, but this triggers requirement down the line triggering procurement/production for material ZURP_RM_LIQUID
Step 8: VA01  Create a sales order for ZURP_PKG_LIQUID
MD02  Execute MRP for ZURP_PKG_LIQUID
Note: The MRP run triggers the procurement proposal for ZURP_LIQUID, which can be converted to production order & simultaneously reduces the created PIR

Scheduling semi-finished products

Hi Gurus,
Am working on a food industry implementation.
The scenario is that bulk quantities of product manufactured are packed in cans. Cans are part of BoM-semi-finished material.The cans are produced simultaneously and fed into the packing lines to pack the bulk material into cans.
The requirement is to schedule the can production simultaneous to the finished product production.
When am carrying out backward scheduling the system presumes that the cans should be readily available before packing operation starts - this is not the case.
If forward scheduling is carried out the requirement date is taken as the order start date for both the finished goods as well as the cans.
Have tried to use the lead time offsets in the BoM item details. But not getting the desired result.
Any help on the subject will be appreciated.

Hi,
I have not worked with this.. Just check with the below:
Take takt time=1 (in days only) and check if the Production Order-1 overlaps with Production Order- 2.
Also, check the foll: (taken from help.sap.com)
You can define the overlapping for each lot-sizing procedure. Here, you must maintain the following additional parameters in the material master record:
You must maintain the cycle time (MRP data screen) for all lot-sizing procedures. The cycle time defines the number of days that the planned orders are to overlap each other.
For the fixed lot size, you must enter the partial quantity to be used for splitting in the field Rounding value.
For all other lot-sizing procedures, you enter the partial quantity in the field entitled Maximum lot size.

STO for semi finished product along with returnable package

Dear Experts,
I am transferring semi finished product along with returnable package from Manufacturing to depot, for that i am creating purchase order (two line items in po, one is semi finish and other is returnable package) and creating delivery through VL10B.
system creates delivery, showing the item category NLN for both line items i..e semi finished and returnable package and billing(vf01) is coming for both item.
my requirement is billing to be only semi finished, returnable package should be update only qty billing should not coming for returnable package
for that which item category have to maintain and where it maintain for returnable package and how it flows from mm to SD?
Regards
sai krishna

The packagings material master record should use the material type VERP for packaging and the item category group LEIH. The item category group LEIH is the SAP standard for returnable packaging.
TAL (the item category for returnable packaging) in the shipping unit
header, then when you create the delivery, SAP will also create an item TAL for that shipping material in the delivery. When you goods issue the delivery, SAP will record that this shipping material has been issued to the customer and must be returned. Note that you only have to price the returnable packaging in the returnable packaging issue order document. It does not need to
be priced in the sales order and cannot be in this method.
Check if this all ok, rest please note returnable packaging material behaves in same way as packing material

Live Office missing from Productivity pack

Hi Experts, I see that when I'm trying to install Productivity Pack, it doesn't have "Live Office" and "QaaWs" while I am looking at the "Getting Started" document, I see that they're supposed to be a part of this installation. Am I missing something here? Am I looking at the wrong documentation? Please guide.

This is what is listed in the "xir2pp_Getting Started_en" guide:
"Productivity Pack release
The BusinessObjects XI Release 2 Productivity Pack release includes the
following installation packages:
u2022 Productivity Pack
Includes Business Process BI Services, Content Search, and Voyager
u2022 Live Office for Productivity Pack
u2022 Query as a Web Service for Productivity Pack"
But when I click on setup.exe and it shows the components, it only shows
- Business Process BI Services
- Content Search and
- Voyager
and I do not see Live Office and QaaWs as is listed here. Can anybody guide me on this?

Finished Product & Its BOM Inventory

Hi Friends,
Is there is any query available in BIW which gives both Finished Product and its bom inventory?
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Rakesh N,
I changed the default warehouse then I noticed that only the newly added/uploaded BOM took the default warehouse are the warehouse for the finished goods. The earlier BOMs were not affected by the change in the default warehouse - the warehouse remain as they were when initially uploaded. Is there a way to update the warehouse for the earlier added BOM. we have quite a huge number of BOM and updating them one by one will take too long to complete.
Thanks,
Eric

Serial Number of Finished product

Hi.
I have manually generated serial no for the Finished Product(A).
To make the Finished product i have issued 5 different components with serial numbers.
e.g.
component - 1
component - 2
component - 3
component - 4
component - 5
For each component i have given the serial number and issued for production.
Now i need a report , components with serial number to make the finished product.
if i give the "Finished product" serial number i need to know what are the componed with serial i have issued to make the Finished product.
If anybody has the query please share with me.
regards
Suresh

Hi I use this query to retrieve the completed serialnumbers by issued batchnumber (track and trace) you can edit the query so that it will lookup the serialnumbers by providing a serialnumber instead of a batchnumber:
SELECT T1.IntrSerial FROM SRI1 T0 INNER JOIN OSRI T1 ON T0.SysSerial =
T1.SysSerial WHERE T0.BaseType = 59 AND T0.BaseNum IN (
SELECT T1.DocNum FROM IGN1 T0 INNER JOIN OIGN T1 ON T0.DocEntry =
T1.DocEntry WHERE T0.BaseType = 202 AND T0.BaseEntry IN(
SELECT T0.BaseEntry FROM IGE1 T0 INNER JOIN OIGE T1 ON T0.DocEntry =
T1.DocEntry WHERE T0.BaseType = 202 AND T1.DocNum IN (SELECT T0.BaseNum
FROM IBT1 T0 WHERE T0.Direction = 1 AND T0.BaseType = 60 AND
T0.BatchNum = 'yourbatchnumber')))
We don't use serialnumbers within serialnumbers, but if you are not able to edit this query for your purpose just ask and if i have some time left i can provide you with a new query. Anyway it is possible to do this with a query

Single Finished product needs to be shipped in 2 separate crates

Hi,
I have a unique business requirement
The company manufactures a finished product that needs to be shipped in 2 crates
How would this delivery split be achived in SAP?
Note we dont want to use BOM
just one material but need to be shipped in 2 crates.
Thanks

hello, friend.
if the order quantity of the material is more than 1, i suppose you can do delivery splits with the packing option.
however, if your quantity is 1, and you wish to ship the finished product using at least 2 different delivery documents, i believe you must use a BOM with components. the components need to be packed separately. the BOM will most likely be crucial since you would want the components to be specified in the delivery documents, and they would most likely be of different specifications.
you can try another alternative without BOM by using alternate units of measure. for example: 1 unit finished product = 2 pcs of product. you can then crate each pc.
regards.

StockTransfer Finished product of one plant to other plant as a packingmate

HI,
CAN ANY ONE PLEASE HELP ME AS TO IS IT POSSIBLE THROUGH STO TO TRANSFER A FINISHED PRODUCT OF
ONE PLANT AS A PACKING MATERIAL TO OTHER PLANT .
WE ARE DOING THIS TO AVOID THE SALE AND PURCHASE ENTRIES. WE WANT ALSO THE PROPER EXCISE ENTRIES TOBE
GENREATED.
PLEASE REPLY IF IT IS POSSIBLE.
REGDS
MS PUSHPI BOSCO

Hello
As per my knowldge, it is not possible to maintain same material code in this scenario.
All you can do is to make 2 matrial codes for finished and semifinshed material and at the time of STO betweem the plants, Do material to material transfer (movement type 309) either before issuing for STO from plant 1 or after receiving in plant 2.
Will explain the steps:
Material code M0001- finished good (handle) in plant A.
Material code M0002- Semifinished goods (handle) to be maintained in plant A and plant B.
STO (material code M0002) for stock to be transferred from Pant A to Plant B.
Material to material transfer (M0001 to M0002)in plant A using movement type 309.
GI (Material M0002) from Plant A against STO.
GR (Material M0002) at Plant B.
Hope it is clear.
Regards

Avoid posting of Goods receipt of finished product without consumption of components in Subcontracting process

I have one requirement:
I provide components using movement type 541 to the subcontracting vendor.
Now system will allow the goods receipt of the finished product using movement type 101.
If the components which are to be consumed using movement type 543 O are unchecked when doing goods receipt of the finished product then system will allow to do the goods receipt.
As a result of which the component consumption will not be done.
Subsequent adjustment can be done but,
I want to have a check that without consuming the components the system will throw an error message when tried to do goods receipt using movement 101.
Please advice if it can be done, if so how to achieve it.

Hi,
It depends on what you want your subcontractor to do with the faulty raw material stock - if you want them to scrap it you can scrap stock from subcontractor stock using movement type 551 and special stock "O" (the system should prompt you to enter the vendor code). If you want it returned for you to scrap it - movement 542 to return it then scrap it from your own stock.
You shouldn't receive an additional 20 of the finished parts - as you only received 80 not 100. Close the purchase order off to close off the balance of 20 remaining.
Thanks

Creation of Production order for FInished Product through Project

Hi,
Pls clear me on how we can create a Production Order for finished product.
If we confirm the production orders in PP, cant the same be confirmed in PS.. Should we consider the same activity types in both PS and PP
Pls clarify

hi srikanth,
your answer has been very helpful... but could u clarify why MRP is run in MD51 for WBS element and in MD02 for network..
Pls clarify... My scenario is like this ...
A
                        B                                                                                C
                D E F G H I                                                                                J K L M N O
I have a Assemblies B and C which are always delivered in sets.. under assemblies B and C, we have 6 sub assemblies which has its own components. I am assigning sub assemblies to differenet WBS elements 01 and 02. so, initially these sub-assemblies are produced to stock. this should happen in PP i.e., through production orders generated in MRP run ( MD51 ). In the next phase i will assign Assemblies B and C to another WBS element. Again system should generate two Production orders thru MRP for this. Here the 6 sub-assemblies produced earlier will be consumed in confirmation of the production order...
What i am doing is this correct...
and the procurement for the components is happening thru the purchase requisition generated via MRP. the components themselves are not directly assigned to the project..
Pls advise and clarify?

Cost of finished product repetitive manufacturing

Hi,
My clients produces 5 different finshed products always. I want to map the scenario in Repetitive manufacturing.
Is it possible in REM to get the actual cost of production of 5 products separately?? fir example can i get cost of finished product 1 as Rs200, in the month of Jan2009 for 10 quantity, cost of finished product 2 in the month of Jan2009 for 5 quantity etc etc .
Regards.

Thanks to all for their valuable inputs.
Dear Mangalraj: Its really a challenge for me to decide whether to go for REM or not. The reason why I am not going for discrete is :
1. Client doesnt know how much of ( for example) fertilizers it issues for finished 1 or finished 2 . client says he knows that in a month how much he has used for example 100 kg of fertilizers in total, not on basis of finished goods. So, i think i will have problem during BOM creation and goods issue in particular.
2. Since finished products are rose plants, jasmine plants etc, client says i dont how much to do Goods reciept. few plants may still be not ready to be able to do goods reciept.Client says its very difficult for me to count flower plants everyday and then say out of 1000, 10 are ready to be done Goods reciept and 15 are dead so these should be scrapped etc.
These are the resons why i thought it to map to REM. But client also wants to know price of each plant , means whats the price of rose plant(per plant), price of jasmine plant( per plant).
Request you all to throw some light on this..
Regards.
