Goods receipt of same serial number

Is it possible for us to receive the same serial number back into the warehouse with MB1C after the serial number has been sent to the customer? We have occasions in the repair process where the same serial number will come back for repair, but the system does not allow it on a GR via MB1C or MIGO. The issue is in the equipment record status ECUS. We can manually change the status to allow the GR, however is there a way that the equipment status can be automatically adjusted to AVLB at the time of goods receipt, mvt. 541? Does SAP standard support this or would this be customization by a SAP consultant?
Thank you.

Hi,
in standard sap once only we use the serial no. again we can't use the same serial no. with material in migo r mb1c it is unique.
Regards

Goods receipt MB01 with serial number problem

Dear MM Experts,
Iam a PM Consultant and this problem faced me while doing goods receipt from external maintenance order so i will appreciate any help regarding this issue,
In serial number profiles i did the stock check indicator to give an error message if there were incosistinces in stock data,
now this is the scenario:
after doing an external maintenance order and creating a PO with reference to the maintenance order PR, and also entering the specified serial number in the PO:
1) Goods Issuing: i used MB1B with movement type 541 and as the serial number already exist and not wrong so it didnt show any error messages and by checking the stock data in MMBE the material was in stock provided to vendor.
2) Goods Receipt: when using MB01 with movement type 101 and when entering the serial number of the material it gives an error message ALTHOUGH it is the same serial number issued and the same serial number in the PO
This is the error message :
Stock data of serial number G081 not suitable for movement
Message no. IO231
Diagnosis
The current stock information for the serial number G081 contradicts the stock information of the movement to be posted. The following stock information is valid for the document and the serial number: Batch Number Stock data Serial data C2
Only the first different field for the stock data/serial data is assigned. However, further data may also be inconsistent. To determine whether this is the case, you can start an analysis.
System Response
Two system responses are possible (set using Customizing): If the case of an error occurring, the assignment of the serial number to this posting procedure is not possible. In the case of a warning, you can, if necessary, transfer the notification.
Procedure
Assign a serial number which corresponds in your stock information to the stock data of the posting. You can display the serial numbers which can be used using Select serial numbers.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks in advance

Hello,
A possibility to fix serial number status is by running the report RISTEQ07 in SE38 transaction. Please run this report as mentioned in the SAP Note 316868 (point 2).
While running the report please consider following points:
The report does not set any locks on the records to be corrected, in other words, the report should only then be executed in the correction mode if the master records (within the client) are not being used in another (changing) access.
During the search for inconsistent serial numbers, the system assumes that the stock segment is correct and the existence indicator might be incorrect.
In the correction mode, the existence indicator is adjusted (depending on the existence of the stock segment).
The report provides a test option (LP_TEST); if this option is active, the system only checks whether inconsistencies exist. Corrections are only carried out if the test mode is deactivated. Option LP_EXTD for the enhanced check should remain deactivated for the first run. In particular, if no inconsistency is recognized, the run should be repeated with the activated option.
Another possibility is to create/post a physical inventory document for the affected material and serial number.
Determine which material serial number is really on stock (physically on stock). You can do this, by either analyzing the history of each Serial Number or by carrying out a physical inventory.
Before posting the Physical Inventory the stock validation of the serial number profile of the material has to be switched off in OIS2 transaction (if it is switched on).
When you do this, you will get a Pop-up, please read the long text and execute the report RISERNR9 which is mentioned there.
After executing this report the inventory can be posted. When this is done please switch stock validation on again and execute report RISERNR9 again.
Perform this inconsistency correction only when you are sure that no one else is working on the system otherwise it could lead to more inconsistencies while the stock validation is switched off. Check SAP Note 612132 for further details.
In another words, you have to:
Create a physical inventory in MI01 transaction;
Enter a counted quantity in MI04 transaction;
Define each serial number to each qty on stock.
I hope this information helps you.
Good luck,

Restrict the receipt of same serial number more than once

Hi,
I want to restrict the same serial number to be taken in the stock more than once..
Can somebody guide how to acheive this..
At the same time I have the indicator set of auto creation of serial numbers at the time of goods receipt in serial number profile.
e.g. I posted 2 material documents (101) one with material A and another with material B with the same serial number S
when I check the serial number S in transaction code IQ03, it is showing against 2 mat. codes. I dont want this scenario to occur.

IN IQ03 , you have to put both the material number and serial number.
The serial number is tied to material number. Hence, different material number can have the same serial number.

Finding goods receipt document and serial number of a material

Hello,
The issue is that I look for an easier way of finding serial numbers which are entered while posting goods receipt of the goods. Then the material is put away into a storage bin. Each sales order position has a project element which is assigned to a sales order position (not to a serial number). When warehouse employee needs to pick the goods in the outbound delivery, he has to type in serial numbers. In MB51, it is possible to search for the GR material document but it can be quite difficult to find it too.
Does anyone have an idea how to find the GR document of a sales order position? Do I need to build up a query with tables containing information about GR, outbound delivery and project element ?
Thanks a lot.
Esra

hi
good
yes you can use this table
EQUI->
Material Number->MATNR
Plant ->WERK
Storage Location->LAGER
Manufacturer Serial Number ->SERGE
Thanks

Tracking Goods movement based on Serial Number

Hi All,
I need expert advise on the following regarding the usage of Serial numbers from MM Perspective:
1. Whether the Number range for Serial Numbers can be given. This is to take care of the Goods bearing serial numbers, being delivered by the external vendor. I have two options: one to update the stock with the same serial number as given by the vendor & the second is to generate my own serial number for the material.
2. I also need to track the complete Goods movement based on the Serial Number of the material.
Pls advise asap.
Regards,
Shekhar.

Hi Kishore,
Thnx for your prompt response.
As requested, If I need to update the stock and want to continue with the serial number as given by the vendor (may be in the form of barcode), what config settings are reqd ?
Secondly, pls advise whether we can assign Number range to the Serial Numbers. Then we need to work upon situation where the serial number provided by the vendor is beyond the specified number range.
Pls advise.

Can a person determine if an Ipod was reregestered with same serial number

My son lost his Ipod 3 weeks ago. We did go online to find my Ipod, and did ask to have it lock, play a sound, and display a message that this ipod is lost and a reward is offered for the return. It still has not turned up, but we are still looking for it. After reviewing the discussion boards, I am wondering if we can tell if a person reset it to the factory settings and reregistered it or are using the same serial number under a different name.

See if the iPod is still listed in your support profile.
My Support Profile
When I gave away my iPod it disappeared from my profile. However, my iPad that I also gave way still appears.
You can also try registering the iPod. It is says it is registered to another account that is a good sign that it has been restore.

How Many Times Can I Use The Same Serial Number For Adobe Creative Suite 4?

I have design standard and was told I can use the same serial number on multiple computers. How many time can I use it? And say I install it on the maximum number of computers, but get a new computer, can I uninstall it on one of the old computers and use it on the new one? And can I use the programs on both computers simultaneously or do I have to use them one at a time?

Fred Tech wrote:
Broadly speaking, it depends on the type of license you have.
Specifically, if you have a single license then officially, you should only install it once on one computer.
Practically, (unless it has changed with CS4) you maybe able to install it on more then one computer, BUT can only run one instance of the software at a time. You can not run more then one instance of the software concurrently; i.e. you can't run Dreamweaver on Computer 1 and Photoshop on Computer 2. That would be two instances, and is not permitted.
This is my understanding. I am happy to be corrected if I am wrong
Fred
Sorry Fred you are wrong.
If you have a single license you can install it on as many computers as you like. you can only activate the suite on two computers at anyone time. Work and Home or as many of us do it Desktop and Laptop. You can not use the computers simultaneously. You only have 20 activation/deactivations so use them wisely. Student versions only have one activation. You can not break up the suite installs the suite is considered one application.

Using the same serial number on two devices, for Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection

I already have Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection (student version) installed on my personal home computer, but I'm looking into buying a laptop, will I be able to install the same programs and use the same serial number on my laptop as well as it being on my personal home computer, or would I have to buy separate software for my laptop?

Fininif you can install Creative Suite 6 on up to two computers for your use.

I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on my desktop. Can I also load into onto my laptop for working remotely with the same serial number?

I use Adobe Pro on my desktop daily at the office and now will be handling work remotely from a laptop as well. Adobe Pro is essential for my work (bates stamping, redaction, advanced editing, etc). Can I use the same serial number and installation disc to load this on my laptop? There are no instructions that speak to this issue and I know other programs I have installed provided for both desktop and laptop access. It isn't like I am giving use of this product to another user or pirating it, so I can't foresee an issue. Any information is much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi rebekah,
Adobe End User License Agreement entitles you to install a singe retail license on 2 computers at any instance.
So you can load Acrobat 9 license on the other computer too.

I have a windows vision for Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard, Can I use same serial number with Mac?

Unfortunately, no. Creative Suite serial numbers are platform specific: Windows only or Mac only.

Can I use the same serial number for mac and pc?

My problem is that my mac is falling apart and I don't know how long it's still working - can be hours or can be months. I'm not sure if my next computer is mac or PC, so I'd like to know if the same serial number can be used with both mac and PC? I have understod that I can delete the program from my old computer and then use the same serial number in my next computer (Is it working that way?). So if I now buy a lisence for mac, can I use the same lisence later with PC?

Riisar for retail copies of the software you would need to complete the process detailed in Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap.

MB26 ,CO27 - goods issue components with serial number?

Hi ,everyone!
I know CO27 and MB26 can do goods issue to production order very easily and quickly!
But It seems CO27 and MB26 can not work well with the component with serial number.
I aslo know MB1A and MB1B can post goods issue for component with serial number.But in MB1A and MB11 , it is very difficult to can material by material number quickly while doing more then 100 components issue to one production order.
And for authorization purpose we restrict MIGO not to use goods issue for production order.
So I want to ask how CO27 and MB26 do goods issue for the component with serial number?
Or there is another ways to goods issue component with serial number to production order easily,exclude MB1A,MB11 and MIGO?
Thanks for any reply!

Hi Vivek
We use CO27 for goods issue to production order ,just like MB1A goods issue to production order.
But in the BOM components of the production orders ,some semi finished products are with with serial numbers ,so we can not use CO27 or MB26 to issue these components with serial numbers to production orders!
