BIG full inventory cycle count

Hi Experts,
We have a BIG inventory coming up in a month and it seems that no one knows how to create a CC for all the parts in our inventory... we need to count everything in stock and record it in SAP.
as of now MI31 will not work... because the ABC classifications. there will be no inventory doc. numbers created for parts that have already been counted within the set time.
and manually creating a CC for over 4000 slocs with MI01 is just crazy!!
is there a way to "override" the classifications in SAP to use MI31?
or is there a better T Code that can be used?
let me know,
thanks

Hi,
I think in that case you will have to make ABAP program by using following BAPI.
BAPI_MATPHYSINV_CREATE
BAPI_MATPHYSINV_CREATE_MULT

Cycle Count Process

Hi Everyone,
We want to implement cycle count process in our ERP system.
1) Which idoc(I beleive its WVINVE.WVINVE03) can be used for this process, for sending data from POS (front end in stores) to ERP. Is there any field which can be used to freeze the count in ERP for a particular item ?
2) How can we freeze the inventory in ERP ? Suppose i want to do cycle count in afternoon when sale is in process, is it possible to freeze the count of particular item which i want to count? if yes How ?
3) If i want to send the current count of items from ERP to some other system or our POS system, Which Outbound Idoc can be used ? How can we trigger that Idoc ? Any transation or program...
Please provide me as much insight as you can, as i have no idea about this process and domain.
Thanks
Inder

I am not sure about POS integration but if you want to freeze book inventory you need do a small configuration in SAP under Physical Inventory.
IMG/ MM/ IM/ Physical Inventory/ Allow Freezing of Book Inventory (Select all sotrage locations for whcih you are doing Cycle count)
Create PI Documents first with all materials which are sibject to count, and freeze the book inventory on the day you start counting.

Cycle counting process

Hi all,
Could you please some good link/ notes about cycle counting process.
Sruthi

Hi, Please go through the following.
Cycle counting is a method of physical inventory whereby inventory is counted at regular intervals within a fiscal year. These intervals depend on the cycle counting indicator set for the material.
Cycle Counting allows you to count fast-moving items more frequently than slow-moving items, for example.
General Procedure
Mark all materials that are to be included in cycle counting with a cycle counting indicator in the material master record (storage data). The cycle counting indicator is used to group the materials together into various cycle counting categories (for example, A, B, C, and D). In Customizing for Inventory Management, you can define for each category the time intervals at which the materials are to be counted.
You can use the program ABC Cycle Counting Analysis (RMCBIN00) to perform an analysis. In this analysis, the system assigns the materials to the individual categories according to consumption or requirements. You can also specify whether this analysis is to consider only the materials with cycle counting indicator or all materials. The cycle counting indicator in the material master records can be updated automatically by this program.
For the planning of cycle counting, run the program Create physical inventory documents for cycle counting (RM07ICN1). This program checks all cycle counting materials to determine whether a physical inventory is due to be carried out.
You can create physical inventory documents for the following stock types, as well as unrestricted-use stock (stock type 1):
quality inspection stock
blocked stock
The system calculates the planned count date for all stock types as folllows:
Date of last physical inventory of unrestricted-use stock + predefined interval
If a material needs to be counted, use the program to create a batch input session for creating physical inventory documents. To create the physical inventory documents, process the batch input session .
When the inventory differences are posted, the actual count date is recorded in the physical inventory data of the material as the date of the last physical inventory.
Activities
Marking Materials for Cycle Counting
This step is only required if you perform cycle counting for the first time or if you want to update the cycle counting indicators.
In the material master record (storage data), maintain the cycle counting indicator for all the materials that are to be included in cycle counting.
You can set the indicator in one of the following two ways:
manually in the material master record. To do this, choose Material ® Change from the Material Master menu.
automatically using ABC analysis To do this, choose Special procedures ® Cycle counting ® Set CC indicator from the Physical Inventory menu.
Creating Physical Inventory Documents for Cycle Counting
From the Physical Inventory menu, select Special procedures ® Cycle counting ® Create physical inventory documents.
Enter the data required.
Carry out the evaluation.
Choose Edit ® Generate session to create the batch input session.
Select System ® Services ® Batch input ® Edit from the menu to process the session.
Carry out the physical inventory for the physical inventory documents created.
Thanks,
DV

Inventory cycle count report

Hi
We need to implement inventory cycle count report . Is there a standard business content data source for this ?
Thanks and Regards
Arun

Sorry I never responded. It's really just a matter of what you need to report on. ISEG has all the basic information you need like plant, material, sloc, etc... so the other tables invovled is really a case by case type of thing. I can't think of much else you would really need for generic cycle count reporting.
Also, the previous post is a good method depending on your needs. If showing difference postings and whatnot is suitable, then go with the movement type. But if you need to dig deeper into it by showing system/counted quantities as well as the difference, then the custom extractor would be the way to go. For me, I did inventory accuracy/cycle counting type of reporting that needed to consider the actual quantities, as a difference of 2 units on an inventory of 100,000 units is a lot different that 2 units difference on a balance of 100 units. But that was just my case is all.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Physical Inventory/cycle Counting procedure in Inventory Management

Hi everyone

I had another question, Can anyone tell me what is the configuration steps for Physical Inventory/Cycle counting in IM, What are the IMG config involved for both.
2. In cycle counting if i want the system to tell what material to be cycle counted that what is the Transaction for it
Lucas

Hi Lucas,
Please go with following transaction
MI01>Create physical inventory document>Enter Document Date>Planned count date>Plant Code>Storage Location>Click on Enter button>you will get the separate screen>Enter material code>and click on SAVE button (Ctrl+S)>you will get Physical inventory document number. (MI02-Use for delete)
(After getting Physical inventory document number you go with MIO4)
MI04>click on enter button>you will get "Enter inventory count screen>Enter Phys. inventory doc.no>Fiscal year>Count date>click on enter button>you will get separate screen>Enter physical qty>and click on save button ((Ctrl+S)>you will get massage from the SAP Count entered for phys. inv. doc. 100000112"
(After completed above transaction you please go with MI07)
MI07>you will get Post inv.differences:initial screen>Enter Phys. inventory doc.> Fiscal year> Posting date>click on enter button>you will get separate screen with deference qty>click save button(Ctrl+S)> you will get document number generated from the system (Diffs in phys. inv. doc. 100000112 posted with m. doc. 4900001246)
Pls. assign the points.
Thanks & Regds,

Hi,
1. You can use T CODE- MI23 -Display Physically inventory data for material.
2. You can use T CODE- MB59 -Give material code/plant code/Mov Type 701-702/Posting period -Execute (F8) >> Click on current display variant button (Ctrl+F) for selection "Amt.in loc.cur".

Cycle count Process - T code MI04

Hi all,
I am having a doubt in cycle count process.
I have created some CC document using MI01. When I go to MI04 to enter actual count; I could see that some of the line itmes are non editable. One observation is that; column ZC (Zero count) against non editable material is set as clicked.
what does it mean to have ZC (Zero count)indicator clicked.
also even there are some material in same documents for which available quantity in SAP is zero; still they are editable and ZC indicator is not marked.
kindly guide.
regards,
Parshuram

Someone must have entered the ZC.
Quantity field cannot contain 0. SAP does not consider it as an entry. Hence if you find that there is no stock for an item, you select ZC (to signify 0 stock) since you cannot enter 0 in quantity.
Hope this answers,
Lakshman

ABC Cycle Counting Process Steps

We currently want to switch our Cycle Counting by Bin location to ABC Cycle Counting. We want the system automatically generate a list of materials to count daily based on there ABC indicator.
Our Current Process Steps are as follows:
Step 1: LX 26 - Select Items for cycle count
Step 2: LI04 Print the Count sheets
Step 3: LI11N Enter the results
Step 4: LX17 View variance
Step 5: LI14 Create recounts
Step 6: LI04 Print the recount sheets
Step 7: LI11N Enter the results
Step 8: LX17 View variance
Step 9: LI20 Accept Counts & Clear Differences WM
Step 10: ZLI21 Accept Counts & Clear Differences IM
But when we switch to ABC Cycle counting we can't do the LX26 because that is when you select the bins you want to count. We need the process steps if we use the system to generate the kick off. Any ideas?
Linda

1. It is a CO problem - I think your error message is KI235. However you may face this problem if settings are ok but you do not do things properly in IM/WM bookings. Please check these links:
Re: OKB9
Account 5248654 requires an assignment to a CO object---Message no. KI235
Please describe step-by-step (with trx codes) what you did and in which step you get the error message.
2.
WM bookings will "never" consume you components (or maybe because a bug...). If you want to consume the components you have to post GI with reference to your PrdOrd (CO11N, CO15, CO27, MIGO, MB1A).
If you did a booking with mvt 261 in MB1A by mistake, do the reverse booking by mvt 262. That's all.
If you cannot solve your issue please clarify your problem, step-by-step...

Csaba

Inventory - Cycle count history

Inventory Cycle Count

Hi All,
I'm tryin to create cycle recommendations. If i update the old item groups with the newly created cycles, and when i run the cycle count recommendation, it shows an error, " No matching records found ITW1."
But when i create a new item group and attach a new cycle count, it works. What is the reason for this and how can this be solved?
We are on 2007B, PL14
Thanks,
Joseph

Hi
I am having the same problem with a client (no matching records found - ITW1 (ODBC - 2028)
How were you able to resolve this?

Consignment vs owned inventory for the same material/inventory (cycle count)

Hi All,
I am looking at ways within SAP that I could differentiate materials/inventory that are consignment and owned inventory...
We have a department that are experiencing difficulties performing cylce counts as they both owned and consignments parts and materials and it is currently done manually.
Is there a way for us to generate a single inventory that includes both owned and consignment in the same report?
Any help would be great!
Cheers!
Wendell

Hi Wendell,
If you have batch management and WM, this should not be a problem.. In this case, you should be able to identify where each batch is located and if the batch is consignment or own.
If not, then execpt you separate the inventory in different storage locations, the inventory could be mixed.
Anyway, I recommend you to move this thread to SAP MM:
SAP ERP - Logistics Materials Management (SAP MM)
Kind Regards,
Mariano
