Price control "V" for Finished Material

Hi,
In implementation project i have created ZFIN for finished material type.And given Price control "S". But as per client reqirement i have to change that " S" into "V".
Is there any effect for those material which already have been valuated with price control "S"? Can i proceed?

hi
generally the valuation is kept S for finished goods
as the price is updated from production and not from sales, so u cant keep the MAP as the production cost varies as per the change in cost of raw material
i think u should tell this to ur client
either if u want to change the price control from S to V
You can make this change at any time. The moving average price (which until now has been updated for informational purposes only) replaces the standard price and is used for valuation from now on.

Material as a Component in Packing Instructions

Hi Friends,
I would like to understand the real need of entering Material Code which has to be packed (Item cateogry -> M) in the packing instructions (POP1), along with the packing materials (Item Cateogry -> P).
As we are already assigning the packing instruction number in POF1 against the material.
Can anyone please advise on the same.
Regards,
Harsh

look up www.tidestone.com, they had an MS Excel lib you could get for java. It is not free and they also just sold to another company. See if they still offer it.

Packing instruction determination

Hi!
Could anyone please tell me the ways to do packing in SD?
I set the Packing Material & Finished Good's Material Master's Packing related information and then create in DN, and do packing, I could create Handling Units.
And the handling units split is do according to the Allowed Weight I set in the Material Master.
Then I wonder what is the use of Packing Instructions (POP1) and also the Packing Determination (POF1)?
Where in the Customizing control which Packing Determination Procedure is using?
And if a Packing Instruction is found, then how the system control the Handling Unit split? By the Packing Instruction or by the "Allowed Weight" information in Material Master?
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Chris

hi Chris,
here are several ways in which you can access the packing transaction. The transaction is integrated in delivery, goods receipt, shipping, repetitive manufacturing and discrete production.
Features
In the packing transaction, you can:
     Create HU proposals (automatically from packing instructions or manually by entering items). You create an HU proposal manually if you do not want to pack according to packing instructions. You build a hierarchy of load carrier, auxiliary packing materials, if required, and the materials to be packed. For more information, see
Hierarchical Display in the Packing Transaction.
     Select alternative packing instructions on which to base HU proposals
     Delete HU proposals (that is, unpack materials)
     Unpack nested HU proposals
     Repack unpacked materials and unpacked HU proposals
     Check HU proposals. To do this, the system simulates handling unit creation. The system cannot create handling units from HU proposals with the status "Faulty".
     Display handling units that the system is going to create from the proposals
     Recalculate weights and volumes of a handling unit. This is important if the measurements in the proposal have been modified manually in the packing transaction and now have to be reset to the values from the packing instruction or material master
     Create handling units
The Level 1 field in the table specifies the number of HUs on the highest packing level that are being created from the HU proposal. The system marks with an asterisk the items that are assigned to this HU proposal, that is, are either used on the highest packing level (packaging materials) or are packed on the highest level (packed goods or sub-HU).
If the item is a load carrier, the field Level 2 specifies the number of subordinate HUs on the second packing level, per main HU. For all other item categories, the system uses an asterisk to show which items are packed in or on the load carrier of this subordinate HU.
All further packing levels are displayed in the same way.
Material-Euro-palletIntermediate layerPallet coverboxLidFinished product.
Ten sub-HUs (the boxes) are shown on the second packing level, to which in turn lids and finished products are assigned.

Settings for packing instruction

Dear SAP GURU'S,
I am facing with one problem which i would like you all to give me a solution.
I have created the packaging material with material type LIEH, and other material which i would like to pack with material type Trading goods HAWA. and i want to do the returnable packaging. I have created the sales order with order type as OR. and created the delivery but when i try to the packaging it is saying that no packing instruction found for the material.
Please can anybody tell me how to do the settings for packing instruction. I have read all the previous postings where i have found that someboody has done the configuring in POP1 and POF1 or POP2 can anybody tell me what are those things. please.
this are the initial thing where i got stuck up then later comes the part of LA and LN order types.
please solve this problem
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
As long as the material master is maintained well, you can manually pack without packing instruction. For the material master, I'd like to give an example.
Example: to pack a computer in a box.
1. create material master for computer
2. create packaging material master for box
3. assign the packaging material master (box) to the material master (computer)

Call transaction for pop2.need to create packing instructions for materials

while assigning packing instruction to the materials from table mara.
its unable to create a new line item in the screen. ex: only 8 records are saved
but needs to proceed for other materials increasing the line item no.
options of create new material ( ok code'=INLI', , create new entry('=INMA')
and even tried for page down option '=P++'. is not working.
Can anyone help me in creating more than 100 line items.
Thanks in Advance,
Sushma

Hi,
Why do you want to create the varient for this?
what is your actual requirment?

Using one packing instruction for several materials

Dear Friends,
I need some inputs on how to use one packing instruction for several materials.
The scenarion here is :
Many materials are packed in a similar way. If certain materials differ in only one characteristic (for example, construction), having to maintain a packing instruction for each of them results in a considerable time and efforts.
Need some valuable inputs to complete this requirement.
Regards,
Harsh

Hi.
Try with reference material for packing (MARA-RMATP). Same material number must be entered on all materials which are packed through same packing instructions.
Then you have to create/use access sequence for determination of packing instructions that contains that characteristic (RMATP).
Best regards
Milan

Basics of Packing instructions

I am trying to create a 'template' by pallet type, of material counts that fill the pallet. So for example, Pallet type '1', may hold 4 drums of material A, or 18 pails of material B, or 6 drums of material C. Pallet type '2' may hold 6 drums of material A, or 22 pails of material B, or 8 drums of material C.
How do i create my packing instructions to reflect this?

Ok to make this a little clearer.. Here is what I have set up:
I want SAP to intrerpret it as 6DR of 828423, OR 20PL of 831528 OR 24pl of 827575.....
but what I get is 6DR AND 20PL AND 24PL on one packing material 411339.... is there anyway I can do this so that a delivery with for these 3 material/quantities would suggest 3 EA of 411339 rather than just 1?
THanks

Packing Instruction determination procedure

How does the system determine Packing instruction determination procedure. For example Output procedeure in Sales order is determined based upon its assignment to Sales document type. Pricing procedure is determined based upon its assignment to corresponding Sales Area, Doc. pricing procedure and Cust. pricing procedure. How does Packing Instructions Procedure and packing instructions in general work.

You define a packing instruction that refers to specific characteristics, such as material and ship-to party. If you now want to pack this specific material for this specific ship-to party, the system can find the pre-defined packing instruction and use it to create one or more HU proposals that exactly fit the requirements of the customer. Packing instruction determination thus automates the packing process.
The system starts packing instruction determination when you enter a quanitity of a material to be packed and choose Pack automatically
Prerequisites:
You have created a packing instruction for packing with packing instructions.
You have made the settings for packing instruction determination in Customizing.
Customizing for packing instruction determination is preset in the standard system. However, you can extend the settings in the customer name range. You need the following for packing instruction determination:
- condition table
- access sequence
- determination type
- determination procedure.
You have also defined determination records.

Hi,
Packing instructions consist of:
-Packing materials
-Materials to be packed
-Text items
-Subordinate packing instructions
-Rules concerning rounding, minimum quantities, and so on
-Definition of a check profile
And so on
Packing Instruction determination procedure
Lg Gen - HU Mgmt - Aut. Packing - Determination of Packaging Instructions
1. Define pr. for Packing Instruction Determination
Pack in Shipping Procedure 000001
Cond Type: SHIP
2. Define Determination type for Packing Instruction
Cond Type SHIP
Acc Seq SHIP
3. Check which table access seq hits
Eg Material/Ship to party
4. Maintain a condition record using POF1 for Determination Type SHIP
The Packing Instruction should get determined.

Packing Instruction Error

Hello All,
I have created Packing Instruction (POP1) for material and save. A number was generated.
However when I am creating Packing Instruction Determination Record (POF1) i am not able to get that number.
Please guide.
Thanks & regards,
Shailendra Panhale

hi ,
if u have succesfully created the packing instruction in POP1 then it will surely come in the Packing Determination POF1 , What is the condition technique u have used for determination.? also u have to maintain the hierarchy in the packing instruction properly .

Packing proposal & packing instruction

Hi Guru's,

You can get some information on packing proposal and instruction here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/2d/584bbaa70f11d2b44e006094b9b9dd/frameset.htm
(packing instructions)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/16/4bad4ea63611d2b44e006094b9b9dd/frameset.htm
(packing proposal)
The proposal can be made even without the instructions. But it does help automate the process.
The packing proposal can be made manually when processing a handling unit. If an instruction is maintained, the proposal gets created automatically.
You can create a packing proposal using TCode POP1.
Subordinate packing instructions can be used to create instructions for nested packing elements.
Please go through the documentation, you will get a clearer idea.

Infoobject packing instructions from SAP

Hello,
I'd like to load the packing instructions. In SAP ERP in transaction POP1-3 known as packaging instructions. Does anyone has an idea how to load this data into BI / BW. Is there a standard or a generic datasource or something else.
Possibly there is someone who has implement something like that.
The aim is to show the packing id to the material and the packaging quanity in one table side by side in a query.
thanx for helpful answers Julia

Hello AP, The BOM has already been created .But is there any method in particular in PS to add attributes to the Items and finally autogenerate the Final Packing List for Shipping to customer.
Thanking You,

Overruling Packing Instructions in COWBPACK

Dear,
In transaction COWBPACK I can only seem to pack according to Packing Instructions.
I want to use Packing Instructions BUT I want to be able to overrule the result of the packing based on the Packing Instruction.
Because the Start automatically-indicator is set in the Pack Transaction Profile 0010-Packing for Work Order (customizing transaction OVHU2) the packing is proposed based on the Packing Instruction. So far, so good.
However, if I subsequently delete or change the HUproposals in COWBPACK this does not work properly: I can not seem to pack the Materials other than as specified in the Packing Instruction.
Can anyone tell me whether it is possible (and if so: how) or not to overrule the packing proposal based on the Packing Instruction in COWBPACK?
Thanks beforehand for any clues,
Kind regards,
Bart

Hi,
I dont think you can specify that , coz the quantity field is grey for hu in COWBPACK..
if you want to add one material with two batches you can only do that through manual transaction HU02

Vishal
