Gate pass for external processing

Hi,
please guide me for this ,
damaged equipments are sent out side the company for a repairing ,and store people issue gate pass for the same while handing over to vendor,
i understand that this processing can be done using control key,
but how the gate pass in the system will be created ,is ther any provision for that in PM area,
Thanks in Advance
Vishal

Sending the equipment to vendor for repair you can use the following process
1.     Create out going equipment as UNBW material type
2.     Generate service PR (Control key PM03)
3.     Generate service PO
4.     Create stock in MB1C transaction with movement type 561
5.     Transfer to vendor in MB1B with movement type 341
6.     Receive from vendor with movement type 342 in MB1B
7.     Transfer to you storage location with movement type 311
8.     Create service entry sheet
For gate pass, I hope you need to develop custom report.
Thanks

Hai Dear
There is no sap functionality about this. But in another hand we could generate the Custom T code. Like Dialogue just keep the material document in header (refer only 541 movmenet). Thro Internal table generate the fields like vechile, transporter, remarks..Once you entered the docuemnt the line items, Qty sud appeare in t code line items.
there you can put the RGP, NRGP also. While saving the no has to generate , i mean gate pass no. Reconsilaion , reporting custom code also possible
The entire thing is work in SAP. talk with your abaper

Substitute variables for external process activity in process flows

Has anyone used with success substitute variables such as ${Working.Rootpath} for external process activity?
I can't get it working. Variables aren't substituted and my scripts fail.
Sample value for parameter_list parameter for external process I use is:
|${Working.Rootpath}|
and in the script I get:
${Working.Rootpath}
which is of course not what I expected.

In documentation is Working.Rootpath so there is a bug in documentation. It is ugly because it's hard to guess.
Thank's for your reply Michael. I checked all that you described. Previously I had Working location set to "Use default location". When I changed it to actual location substitute variables started to work properly.
If I correctly understand "Use default location" means: use location associated with process module. And for execution it works but for substitute variables doesn't. So I think it is a bug.
Next thing is variables in the script itself. From examples sent by Mark (script: cd ${Working.RootPath}...) they should be set in environment and accessible to shell. This doesn't work for me but it is not described in documentation and can be easily achieved by passing parameters. So that's not a problem.
One more question: Should I open tars and file bugs describing what we found?

Component for external processing

hello!
i would like to have special stock indicator '2' for a component that is used for external processing. when i enter 2, it is removed automatically - all components for external processing (and subcontracting) are always plant stock.
any ideas?
best regards,
matthias

Dear,
Go to MRP-4 View---> Individual /Coll. Indicator --->
Change it from 1 Individual Requirements to 2 Collective requirements.
Is best the solution.
One suggestion is to remove the indicator "1" manually in CO02-Component overview and then issue material to that production order set it as 2.
Hope clear to you.

Control key for external process operation & internal.

Hello,
We have created one control key (ZP01) T code OP67.
In the customisation (OP67) for "External processing" selection field we select "X" i.e. "Internal processed operation / Extarnal processing possible.
If this field is blank then it is a "Internal operation"
If this field is "+" Then it is external operation, in this case system creates the purchase requisition after release the production order.
We want to know,
If this field is with "X", then what is the proceedure to create the purchase requisition for external operation.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Nilesh

Hello Brahmankar,
Thanks for your prompt detail reply.
As per your suggestion already we have that setting for another controll key (PP02)
It is std for SAP it is working fine, in this control key the setting is "+" for external proceesing in OP67.
Now my requirement is instead of "+" I made it "X" i.e. Internal processed operation / External processing possible. In this case system is not generating purchase requisition after production order release.
I want to know for external processing whether I have to create purchase requisition manualy?
or any other process we have to follow?
Thanks & Regards,
Nilesh..

Control Key for External processing

Hi
I have a work center for external process and a control key created for external as well. In setting up the control key I choose "automatic goods receipt" and "confirmation required".
Then I have 2 semi parts A and B. Same routings are created for them with the work center and control key mentioned above.
When I create production orders for A and B, I can get a purchase requisition for external process and convert it to a PO. Further when I make a goods receipt to the PO, the production orders are marked with status "CNF". What's surprising me is only for part A the goods receipt of production order is done automatically when the PO is done with goods receipt. No "DLV" for the B production order.
I compare the material master of A and B - can't see any difference...
Please give me some suggestion on where I should look into. Thanks a lot in advance.
yu

At least I can see the difference now.
The scenario is still a production order with an external processing operation (PO to supplier).
When I use movement type 101 to GR the PO, the production order gets CNF and DLV
When I use movement type 103+105 to GR the PO, the production order gets nothing and the external processing operation just gets EODL.
For QC process, we choose to use 103 to GR the PO first and 105 is made when quality check is finished. Is there any solution for this issue?

Production Variance Analysis for External Process Cost

Dear all,
We are on 4.7 R3.
In production order we have routing/operation with mutliple external processes. The problem is production order cost analysis (CO03) displayed the external process cost variance in lump sum (it adds multiple external processes cost into a single line).
We need to be able to analysis the external process cost variance by each process. We want to generate a report that displayed the external process cost variance for each processes, however in table COSPA there is no information of the external process name, it also displayed the cost in a lump sum amount.
How to enable the external process cost variance by each process? What table capture the external process cost with the information of the external process name/ID?
Thank you very much in advance for your kind assistance.

Hi
Use KKO0 reports..
Assign Cost Comp Structure in OKN0 and choose Prod Group = Material Group in OKN0
Transport these settings across to all clients...
Run KKRV to collect data and then run KKO0 reports

Outbound delivery for external processing Purchase order

Hi all ,
In external processing, I have an external activity.
The PR and then the PO are created with acct *** F and no material.
In that case the shipping tab is not opened in the PO line details and thus
I can not create an outbound delivery in order to print a shipment doc for that PO .
Is ther any workaround for creating such outbound delivery or at least
print a shipment document ?

Hi,
As of my knowledge, STO (intracompany sto) is not possible without material code. For the item category U, the material code is mandatory. You may check in OLME - External Representation of item categories.

Problem using PAPI-WS for external process notifcation

Hello,
I'm trying to have an external Java application send a process notification using PAPI-WS.
I have a process instance currently sitting at a notifcation wait step (configured to wait for an external notification) but each time I call processSendNotification I get the an unspported operation exception. I'm not even sure this is the correct ws operation to use but looking at the PAPI API reference it seemed the most likely.
Below is a snippet from the code I'm testing this with and the corresponding output including the exception:
for (InstanceInfoBean instance : instances.getInstances())
String waitStep = "WaitForDelivery";
System.out.println("-> process id = " + instance.getId());
// find which instance are waiting on delivery
if (waitStep.equals(instance.getActivityName()))
System.out.println(" -> " + instance.getAuthor() + " is waiting on delivery!");
papiWebServicePort.processSendNotification(instance.getId(), waitStep, null, null);
Process: WhatToHave
-> process id = /WhatToHave#Default-1.0/2/0
-> process id = /WhatToHave#Default-1.0/1/0
-> Andy is waiting on delivery!
Could not perform the requested operation

Hi
There is no std business process in SAP for Gate pass for the Material entry
before GR stock entry into the stores.
You have to write a Z program based on the details of Purchase order tables EKKO and EKPO.
This will mainly check whether the correct PO qty was delivered or not with proper quality.
So use the PO tables EKKO and EKPO and fetch the data and use it
Since this is client specific there is no feneralised program for it.

hi
>1. im not able to get the print out in MB90
Check following if useful to u
1. Maintain the Printer Name in SPRO->Malt Mgmt->Inv Mgmt and Phy Inv->Print Control->Gen Settings->Printer Setting
2. Ensure that in SPRO->Matl Mgmt->Inv Mgmt and Phy Inv->Print Control->Gen Settings->Item Print Indicator, 1 stands for Matl Doc print out
3. In SPRO->Matl Mgmt->Inv Mgmt and Phy Inv->Print Control->Gen Settings->Print Version, maintain Print Version 2
4. In SPRO->Matl Mgmt->Inv Mgmt and Phy Inv->Print Control->Maintain Print Indicator for GI/Transfer Posting Documents
5. In SPRO->Matl Mgmt->Inv Mgmt and Phy Inv->Output Determination->Maintain Output Types, for the Output types WE01, WE02 and WE03, ensure the foll:
a. Default Values: Dispatch Time is 3 or 4 as per reqmt. and Tr medium is 1
b. Print Parameter is 7
6. In SPRO->Matl Mgmt->Inv Mgmt and Phy Inv->Output Determination->Printer Det->Pr Det by Pl/StoLoc, maintain the Output device for all your Plants
7. Go to MN21, for Tr Type WE, Print Version 3, maintain Print Item as 1.
Now the settings are ready for Printing Material doc
8. While doing MIGO, ensure that in General Tab, you get "3 Collective Slip" beside the Print Indicator and you tick mark the field.
9. Now depending on the setting in 5a, the Matl doc is printed. If it is 3, you have to print it using MB90. If it is 4, it is printed immediately.
>2.for the m/c sent for repair, if they found some damaged part & replacing it, then how to capture its bill part.
this part will come in ur process part
if ur using ur own part then agin u have to issue it to the vendor
or if its been used by the vendor then u have to pay charges manually

Product Costing:External Processing

Hi Gurus,
My doubt is I am comparing standard cost estimates of production client with another client which is its copy. The product cost estimate of a material, the cost component 'External Processing' is showing value 700 in PN client and 1000 in the New client. The cost element for 'External Processing is 700000000H as primary cost element and another as secondary cost element. I tried checking the GL account report in FBL3N regarding the postings happened in the GL accounts.
1. My question is why there is a variation of 700(of PN client) and 1000(in NEW client).
2. The second question is, from where these values are flowing.How we can trace back the flow of values for this particular cost component of External Processing' of a material cost estimate?
Is it anyway related with Exchange Rate differences? If so, how and where it is linked?
I'll be really grateful for your answers.
Looking forward for you reply soon.
Thanks,
Prithwi.

Hi,
I have checked the valuation variant 001. The startegy sequence is same only. There's no change in configuration settings as the new client is copy of production client only.
I wanted to know, the 'External processing' data or values from which.postings. How it gets picked up and how we can check its origin?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Sub-contracting External Processing PP-PI

hI,
I am trying to create sub-contracting order through SAP PP-PI.
I have a FG - X, with components X1 & X2.
I have 3operations and 3 phases in the Recipe for X.
The 2nd phase is having the control key for external processing, because of which i had to assign Purc.Info record to this phase.
( Pls note that its not allowing me to enter a PIR of material/vendor combination, hence had to create for Material Group/ Vendor).
Now when i Create and release a Process order for X, there is a Pur req created but it has no material, and i cant change anything in this Pur. req.
Please help.

Hi,
When a Preq is created for external processing, the material is not copied in to the Preq. This is std SAP behavior. However with EhP4, this functionality is made available. You need to activate this functionality and then some code changes has to be done in the BADI in order to copy the material from order to Preq. I don't remember the BADI, but I am sure there is one.
Thanks
