Help required on Organisation Structure

Dear All,
I wanted to prepare a Organisation Structure for one of our Client.
The Business process is like this , there is one Head office , 25 Branches & 50 Service centres .
The Head Office & Branches have similar function, i.e of booking the orders , checking the stock ( branches also stock the material ) ,if avialable than despatch, if the stock is not avilable than the stock is replenished from the main warehouse.
The service centre recieves complaints & defective goods under warranty from the customer , checks  for availabilty of material , issues fresh material  in place of defective material & sends it to the customer ,incase of material is not available than the requistion for the same is sent to the main warehouse & on reciept from warehouse the material given to the client.
In such scenario, how should I map my Organisation structure.
Secondly what factors decide whether a unit is to be treated as a plant or a storage location.
Thanks

Hello,
My suggestion is to have
1 company code
25 purchasing organizations (or maybe less if you are able to put some of them together)
50 plants
but I would need to know much more about how the company works.
A purchasing organization is defined as:
A purchasing organization is an organizational unit within logistics subdividing an enterprise according to the requirements of Purchasing. It procures materials and services, negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and bears responsibility for such transactions.
The definition for plant:
An organizational unit serving to subdivide an enterprise according to production, procurement, maintenance, and materials planning aspects. It is a place where either materials are produced or goods and services provided.
The defnition for storage location is:
An organizational unit allowing the differentiation of material stocks within a plant. All data referring to a particular storage location is stored at storage location level. This applies mainly to storage location stocks.
So deciding if you create a plant with only one storage location assigned or with more than one, it depends if you need to divide your goods in different locations. if they are all grouped in the same location, you can decide to have only one storage location per plant.

  • WM Organisation structure

    Dear Friends,
    presently we have 2 plants (Plant A and Plant B)  running in SAP without WM Implementation. We are planning to Implement WM and in the process of finalising the WM Organisation structure.
    Both Plant A and Plant B have different type of storage types and storage section. Example Material A will be placed in storage type 001 in Plant A and will be placed in storage type 003 in plant B.
    Now both Plant A and Plant B being shifted to new physical location and will be available in same Premises. But will be maintained separately inventory wise and Physically.
    Is there possibility of having Single Warehouse and Single Plant and 2 storage location to have inventory separate. But Our Storage types are assigned to Warehouse level. Please confirm the possibility. So that even if we have single warehouse, and single plant, when materiel inward Storage location A, the materiel will go to Storage type 001 and when inward in storage location in B, it will go to Storage type 003. Please confirm.
    Madhavan

    Hi Madhavan,
    Your query- "Is there possibility of having Single Warehouse and Single Plant and 2 storage location to have inventory separate. But Our Storage types are assigned to Warehouse level"
    Yes, you can define a warehouse complex number connected accross two storage locations of two plants. In the warehouse there can be different storage types as per the requirement. Then you can use of storage location control (storage location reference) so that the stock is only stored in a specific storage type based on the storage location reference.
    For that go to the following path
    Logistics Execution u2192 Warehouse Management u2192 Interfaces u2192 Inventory
    Management u2192 Define Storage Location Control. Then define a new indiactor for storage location reference.
    Then assign the indicator for your plant-storage location-warehouse combination.
    Control of Assignment "Plant / Stor.Loc. - Whse Number
    Then Choose Logistics Execution u2192 Warehouse Management u2192 Strategies u2192Activate Storage Type Search and then choose Determine Search Sequence.
    Choose New Entries and enter your warehouse number, the operation putaway (indicator E), and your storage location reference.
    This can help.

    Hi,
    Concerning your response
    "I'm afraid this needs to be manually coded using linked configurations. You may also need to create your own XSL."
    as we face exactly the same problem, could you please be more specific on what has to be done so that we will be able to see the extra tab? I mean, we can see it in the administrator's console, but not in the user. It would be of great help if you could describe the steps and the content of what should be added, as we have no experience in xml coding.

  • Determining Approver from Organisational Structure

    Hi all,
    I am new to Workflow, Can anyone please let me know how Approver can be determined from Organisational Structure.
    1) For determining Approvers i have position data available with me.
    2) Also please let me know all possible scenarios of determining the Approvers from Organisational Structure.
    Please provide me any Documents or tutorials available for the same, if possible.

    There are many ways to determine the agents.
    Rule : It can be used via Function module(by abap coding & need to be suffixed with US for User & respectively) or Responsibilities created at Rule level or directly using Organization and there are many other options provided at that level.
    Organization: To assign the whole Organization and it is mostly high level & workitem will be sent to all the users assigned to that Organization.
    Position: To assign the Position directly assigned & workitem will be sent to all the users holding that position.
    Coming about your question:
    1) For determining Approvers i have position data available with me.
    You can either assign it at User Decision level directly or if you want to do any validations, you can even do it in Custom method or Function module through RH_GET_STRUCTURE where you need to pass Position & retrieve Users.
    You can look at the below link:

  • MRS own organisational structure?

    We have the following problem:
    We want to implement the MRS 700 with linkage to HR(HCM) for ressources. The MRS uses the organisational structure with planversion active, currently in standard. We are using it already for HR and don't want to have two structures in one planversion.
    I heard that it should be possible to create a MRS specific structure with MRS elements. (Saw it in a presentation sheet from SAP). It was included in the PPOME or a transaction very similar to it.
    The question is:
    How can I activate it to create an independant organisational strucutre? Someone told me about a new objecttype. If I need it, how must it be set up?
    Is there another way to divide the structures i.e. a different planversion? How can it be realised?
    Thanks for any help with this issue!

    Hi Sunitha,
    Implementation starts from designing the Org structure.  This is a part of the busienss process study.  It resembles the org hirearchy and how you map it in SAP in a real scenario.
    As far as FI is concerned, generally accepted org structure would be to first determine the company code.  This co code is a legal entity wherein the accounting data is captured and consolidated for external reporting.  As part of this there are various parameters that need to be customized.
    Secondly, Controlling is purely for internal MIS.  When you study the business process of a particular org, you need to identify the business areas for which the management would want reports to be generated for internal purposes.  As a process you then determine the cost centers / profit centers / segments to map those areas in SAP.
    Hope this clarifies.
    Thanks,
    p.k

    Pricing Procedure
    In SD, Pricing Procedure is determined based on Sales Area (Sales Organization + Distribution Centre + Division) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure. Sales Area is determined in Sales Order Header Level. Customer Pricing Procedure is determined from Customer Master. Document Pricing Procedure is determined from Sales Document Type / Billing Type (if configured). Once the pricing procedure is determined, Condition records are fetched. If appropriate condition records are found, the price is determined. If Mandatory pricing condition is missing, system will through an error message.
    In SD, the steps to configure Pricing procedure are as under:
    Step 1:
    Condition table: If existing condition table meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition table. Considering the requirement for new condition table, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Table (select the required fields combination, which will store condition record).
    Step 2:
    Access Sequence: If existing access sequence meets the requirement, we need not create a new access sequence. Considering the requirement for new sequence, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Access Sequence (Access sequence is made up of Accesses (Tables) & the order of priority in which it is to be accessed. Here we assign the condition table to access sequence.
    Step 3:
    Condition Type: If existing condition type meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition type. Considering the requirement for new condition type, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Type. It is always recommended to copy an existing similar condition type & make the neccessary changes. Here we assign Access sequence to Condition type.
    Step 4:
    a. Pricing Procedure: It is recommended to copy a similar pricing procedure & make the neccesary changes in new pricing procedure. Pricing Procedure is a set of condition type & arranged in the sequence in which it has to perform the calculation. Considering the requirement for new Pricing Procedure, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Maintain Pricing Procedure.
    b. Pricing Procedure: After maintaining the pricing procedure the next step will be determination of pricing procedure. Configuration for determining pricing procedure in SPRO is as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Determine Pricing Procedure.
    5. Condition record: Condition record is a master data, which is required to be maintained by Core team / person responsible from the client. During new implementation, the condition records can be uploaded using tools like SCAT, LSMW, etc.
    Normal Sales Order Cycle:-
    Step 1: Sales Document Type
    IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
    Sales Document Header:
    1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
    2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
    3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
    A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
    B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
    Sales Document Item:
    1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category
    Schedule Line:
    1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.
    Step 2:
    IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >
    1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.
    Step 3:
    IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >
    1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.
    3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.
    The configuration differs from scenario to scenario & requirement of the client.

    The problem is that I dont have any category linked to my backend system.    Because If I choose my SRM as the Src. System, I can see all the product categories that I have created.
    Somebody knows how can I link my Product Categories to my backend?

  • Organisational structure should be alphanumerical or numerical.

    Hi Team,
    I have a client requirement where client has requested all organisational structure like company code, chart of accounts, credit control area, conrtolling area etc all should be alphanumerical or numerical.
    If its alphanumerical, what are merits or demerits and if its numerical, its merits and dermertis.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sameer.

    Hi,
    There is no importance whether it's alphanumerical or not. I would just recommend to avoid leading zeros, if you define it as numerical (mainly, for potential interfaces to other systems)
