Goods Issue Documentation for Text (Non-stock) Items

Hi all,
I have a business requirement to provide some form of shipping documentation for text (non-stock) items.
The business do not want to create material masters (NLAGs) for these items as they are different/one off purchases.
The purchase the goods and receipt with account assignment to a cost center or internal order, then sit on the inventory and send it out to customers along with real stock items.
Any ideas on how I can provide some kind of supporting documentation, whether that is a delivery note, or just a simple GI Slip?
Thanks,
Mark.

So they want to purchase items that they don't create materials for/don't get stocked yet want to include those items that don't really 'exist' in SAP on some for of documentation.
If these items go with real Deliveries then why not add them as text items to the Delivery ?

Deletion of Delivery for a non-stock item

Hi,
Could you pls. let me know how to delete the delivery of a non-stock item, its not making possible through vl09.

Hi,
If the delivery note had been posted goods issue, you can't delete any item until reverse the DN with t-code VL09. That's it.
I guess the reason of deleting the non-stock item in delivery note is that you don't want to take the non-stock item into account in billing document, right? If yes, I suggest you to define the copy control rule of billing document, to sovle the problem.
Hope can help you!
Good luck

Schedule line confirmation date for 3rd party sales( non stock item)

Hi ,
While creating an sales order i have a stock item and 4 non stock items . All the non stok items are similar to 3rd party sales as they are services . While created the sales order for the no stock item the confirmed schedule date is given as 12 days in the future or in one case after month .
Can someone please help me in understanding how the dates are being calculated . I havent created any PO for the non stock items.
I would like the confirmed date to be picked as the system date.

Hi,
There can be multiple reasons for this.
You have not mentioned the material type. Anyhow, first check Material Master
Purchasing view> GR Processing Time field
Sales / general Plant > Set up time and processing time field
If MRP views are maintained
In MRP2 View > Scheduling.
In case you do not want availability check to be carried out
Untick Availbility check and TOR check boxes in VOV6 for the schedule lines determined for these materials.
Hope this helps.

Returning non stock items from a return sales order

Hello Everyone:
I have a return sales order that I am receivi9ng an error meesage on for only two of the line items...
The Error Message is "update Control of movement type is incorrect (entry 651 X__L)...the other items on the sales order that are being returned are not having this issue only these two non stock items.
i looked in OMJJ and see my movement type and everything....I am making the assumption that this is due to the material type being non stock...they do not have a MRP view either....the VOV5 also shows the item category for the non stock item with DN...what am I missing...please help...thanks in advancve...

Thanks for you replies...However I would not want a stock transport order receipt for this which is what the "X" would be...this is a customer return from a sales order...again this works for stock material that is being returned by the customer...it is not working for a non stock material only. That is my issue..it is only erroring out on the non stock item category only....I am MM and have stepped into a position that was previiously handled by another...I have not ran into this error before so help would be appreciated.....Thanks in advance...

Journal Entry for non-stock Item while Good Receipt PO

In accordance to Accounting Rules, the EXPENSES of non-stock item purchase should be recognize
upon Good Receipt PO, journal entry should be created at the point time of GRN instead of invoice.
We would like to see this as part of the SBO standard accounting process as it is also important for
us to make sure the the software process is comply to the Standard Accounting Rules.
Thank you and Warmest regards,

Hi Martin,
I fully agree with this requirement. In Australia, the tax Office is asking us to recognise the expense in the profit and loss at the time of receiving products or services.
With SAP Business One, receipting inventory products through the GR PO will create a simpel journal entry:
Debit Stock
Credit Goods Receipt Not Invoiced
In the context of non inventory items, SAP Business One should do exactly the same:
Debit Expense account of the service item
Credit the Allocation Account (GRNI or other)
Currently, we have to create a big journal entry at the end of the month to recognise the expense of services that we have received but we have not received the invoice.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me so we can discuss.

Unit of measure for Stock and Non-stock Item in CJ20N

When I attach Material to an activity (item Category N Non-stock item) in Project Builder (CJ20N), It is peaking its Base unit of Measure as unit. Now when I try to change it, it is showing an error
Item category N: Only base unit of measure M allowed
Message no. CO344
But for the same material if I change the item Category to L Stock item, then it allows me to change the unit.
Please guide me regarding this Behavior. Is there any customization, by doing which it will allow me do the same for Non-stock Item or It is not Possible.

firstly I am assuming that the activity is internal processing type - doesn't matter really
now to attach a material select actvity and from the template area click and drag material which will open the material detail screen in the work area
because it is a non stock item I am assuming text description - in the requirements qty you enter the qty and next to it the units - changeable
if you choose a material number maintained as material master then obviously the unit will be from the material master.
If you are using an externally processing activity then in config check OPUU for the network type and see if order unit has been populated - that might be the problem

MIGO Print label WEE1 for non stock items from GR for PO

Hi,
I added logic to print new label into printing program MZ07DETI which is printing labels for stock items. My label is for non stock items. The problem is that for non stock items printing process is not triggered. I created PO with Account Assign. Category F, P or K no material number and no storage location. For this type of PO no print possible during GR posting. Is any set up available in IMG to make it work. I appreciate any response.

Hi,
Please check up if there is any default value at the plant level;in case of such default,the system will post to the GL Account defaulted,not with standing the "standard item category".Better checkup if any cost center /order has been assigned.
The GL item is defaulted thro'the item category.If both the goods and services have been defaulted to the same GL Account,then not with standing the type [ie] whether goods or services,the system will post tot he same GL Acct.
Hope this helps.

Non Stock Items not posting in AP Goods Receipt

Is it possible for SAP to post transactions for Non Stock Items in AP Goods Receipt?
I was hoping that it would perform the following, as it does for Stock Items:
Dr Expense                        xxx
Cr Allocation Account                  xxx
Then when the AP Invoice is raised
Dr Allocation Account          xxx
Cr Creditos Account                    xxx

I am currently using 2007A Sp 39

Delivery date for Non stock items

Hi,
While creating Maintenance order for Non stock items in component screen planned delivery time fld comes. Here
I put 10 days. But system creates PR with delivery date as today's date ie order creation date.
Actually delivery date should be 20.09.2009.
Waiting for your valuable inputs.
Thanks
Prasad

Hi,
The requisition delivery date is dependent on the operation start date. System does not consider the planned delivery time when calculating this delivery date.
The delivery date is based on the following calculations:
- The start date of the operation
- Minus Goods receipt processing time of the component
- Plus or Minus Lead time offset for the component in the order
The above values can be adjusted to manipulate delivery date.
As mentioned, It is also possible to influence this date by implementing exit COZF0002.

Sales order line for Non Stock items progressed to Closed status, need to be Cancelled.

Hi,
First time posting to this community, I hope someone can help.
Currently we have a setup where non stock items are being added to sales order lines (charges, etc.).
These lines are being progressed through to Closed status automatically.
Users are reporting that they have entered the line in error and would like to change the status of the line to Cancelled.
We are unable to return the material (RMA) as it is non stockable/transactable etc.
Current workaround is to adjust the stock and make finance aware so that the line does not get invoiced.
However, the system still shows that the line is closed (i.e. provided to customer) which is not correct.
Is there any way of getting the line to a status of cancelled?
Your help is very much appreciated.
Regards
Tim

Hi Arif,
Many thanks for the warm welcome.
I'm thinking the only course of action I have for future, is to make the items stockable/transactable/returnable such that an RMA can be performed if added in error.
We can put a large qty into stock at zero value.
Thanks for your help in any case.

Non-stock purchase for the non-valuated item

For normal valuated items, if we make it account assigned on PO, it didn't update the inventory on receipt but rather gets charged to the cost object on the PO.
Can we have similar functionality for non-valuated item.
We are having a non-valuated but stock item purchasing scenario. For this we are updating only the quantity of receipt but the value is getting charged to the cost object on PO.
Now user wants to buy same item and charge it to the specific cost object (it's oka upto this point)..AND don't want to update the quanity in inventory.
So in short can we control the no qty. update for the non-valuated item as we can control for valuated item through account-assigned purchasing.

Hi,
But why u need quantity and value both of a material should not be updated ??
Ok...
Create a Material type and go to OMS2 and click Quantity upadating and Value updating in Dialog Structure .Now Check ur valuation Area( example Plant) and do not tick Quantity upadating and Value updating check box.
Now try ur transaction and it will work without affecting quantity and value.

For non Stock items ?

Hi ,
For non stock items (which do not have material code ) , what price we will put in PR ?
In live scenario, suppose a requestor from HR dept is raising a PR for non stock material.
Suppose the material is procuring for first time in that company .
He doesnt know the price for that .
So what price he will put in the PR?
Please tell me in live scenarios , what people used o do ?
regards,

Hello Sandeep,
While creating purchase requisition, normally user dept will put the approximate price for that material/service. sometime user will put even price as 0.01 (currency) also in PR and purchasing dept will put the negotiated price at the time of Purchase order creation.
Hope this helps.

Auto G/L population for Non Stock Items

Hi,
I am trying to configure the Auto G/L Population for Non stock item (Material Master item).I have created the Material without Valuation class assignment.
Master data:
Material 1(Material type : Non Stock,No valuation class assignment,attached with Material Group X)
Material group X is attached with Valuation class (Entry aid for items without material master)
In OBYC -->Transaction GBB with modifier VBR maintained the G/L for the relevant valuation class.
I am expecting to default that G/L in Purchase requisition creation screen. But system is not defaulting the G/L account.
Is there anyother steps involve to achieve the G/L default for NON STOCK Materials without assigning the valuation class to Material master.

Hi,
You can set with the help of t.codes:
OME9, OMGO,& OBYC.

Multiple PR doc type for Maintenance order - Non stock item category

For non-stock item requirement in PM, we create a maintenance order and indicate item category as "N" in components tab. Accordingly a purchase requisition is created as per configuration. We have assigned PR doc. Type “FO – Framework requisition” for Maintenance Order Category.
SPRO - PLANT MAINTENANCE & CS - Maintenance and Service Processing - Maintenance and Service Orders - General Data - Define Account Assignment Cat. and Document Type for Purchase Requisitions
Now according to the new requirement, we need to have different PR Doc type as per CONTROL KEY mentioned in the Maintenance Order.
Example:
If the Control Key is “PM01 - Plant maintenance – internal” the purchase requisition document type should be “NB – Purchase Requisition”. If the Control Key is “PM03 - Plant maintenance-External(services)” the purchase requisition document type should be “FO – Framework Requisition”.
Please advise how to configure the same.
Regards
Sathish Kumar Balakrishnan

Hi Partha,
This is a simple enhancement. In our scenario, we had configured PR document type "FO" in SPRO settings for "Document Type for Purchase Requisitions".
Hence to have "NB" PR document type whenever material components are being indented through maintenance order, we used this enhancement COZF0002
Please instruct your abaper to add similar logic, as shown below.
Enhancement:COZF0002
Functional module:EXIT_SAPLCOZF_002
Include: ZXCOZU02
Logic:
IF sy-tcode eq 'IW21' or sy-tcode eq 'IW22' OR sy-tcode eq 'IW28' OR sy-tcode eq 'IW31' or sy-tcode eq 'IW32' OR sy-tcode eq 'IW38' .
IF resbd_imp-postp = 'N'.
eban_ord_cust_chg-bsart = 'NB'.
ENDIF.
endif.
Hope this helps.
