How to do a clearance sale on a list of materials

Hello,
I got a request from our spare parts department that I'm not sure how to handle. They have a list of about 30 materials that they want to get rid of through a clearance sale. That is, they want to sell off all of the remaining stock of those materials at a discount. After the inventory is cleared, they want those parts to effectively become make-to-order parts, and they want to raise the price. So the parts are not being discontinued or obsoleted, just cleared from inventory.
Does anyone have ideas on how we might configure this type of clearance sale? I looked into using promotions and sales deals, but they only seem to allow for sales based on a specified period, whereas we want the promotion to end based on when stock is depleted. I searched here and elsewhere for other ways of accomplishing this, but came up empty.
Any help is greatly appreciated. BTW, we're on 4.6c.
Regards,
- Greg

Good question. It doesn't look like there is a good option for clearance discount available (unless you're running Retail or are ready to invest in some additional "solution").
Since it's only 30 materials, maybe the easiest way would be to create the new material records for them and move the stock to the new materials through inventory adjustment? This would affect the reporting but if you report by Product Hierarchy, that should still be good.
I've noticed how in many stores when you buy a clearance item they actually have special barcodes on them. I.e. those are, essentially, not the "real" materials anymore.

How can we reject a Sales order after first Down payment invoice for Italy?

Hello,
As a legal requirement in Italy the Down paymenty have to be transformed into real invoices, another legal requirement is that an invoice cannot be cancelled it has to reversed by a credit memo.
I would like to know in this context how we can reject a sales order line once a Down payment invoice has been emitted.
When I do enter a reason for rejection in the sales order line I receive the message : V1036: Subsequent documenst exist for item XXX and then V2432 Cancellation not possible. Down payment request already created.
I can create a down payment credit memo in order to cancel the down payment invoice but how can I get rid of my SD requirement in MD04 if I cannot reject the sales order line?

How to assign version in sales order and transfer to PP module

Hi all
Users say that customer will require to produce/deliver old goods (we active revision level. The newest material version is D. But customer want version B). How to assign version in sales order and let PP user know the version customer want (MRP run and production order must use version B's BOM)?
Regards,
Rita

Hi,
i have a query if you have implimented ECM this will serve the purpose but it also depends on how good the planning is, in ur client site ( out of SAP ) where planner will plan according to the customer requirement as to which version to be kept active for a date range.The ECO analysts(functional) or consultants will make the ECO changes for those dates.
In general for those type of customers (who needs old version) a different SO created under different document type which will create a production orders with specific order type depending on the assignment of requirement type and requirement class.
those specific production ordertypes can be inturn assigned to either different plant where your old version BOM's will be active.
You need to look into the custom settings in SAP to design the larchitecture to allign with other requirements.What i explained u is common methodology used.
Hope this is clear..

How to create a new sales order to internal requisition?

Hi, All
Need help!!!
How to create a new sales order to internal requisition?
The internal requisition has generated order sales but this has already been canceled, so I need to create a new sales order to the same internal requisition.
How to release the internal requisition to re-create new sales order and after import in OM?
please help me
Thanks and regards
Manuel,

You cannot.
Once a ISO is generated for an IR, the transferred_to_oe flag is set on that req.
If the ISO was canceled, you should cancel the IR and create a new one.
Hope this helps,

How to configure rescheduling for sale order quantities

kindly explain how to configure rescheduling for sale order quantities that are created last month. kindly explain. i am in urgent.

g.v.shivakkumar

Hi,
Short text
Rescheduling sales and stock transfer documents: by material
Description
The 'Rescheduling' program (SDV03V02) processes sales document items that are contained in the item directory for the material. It takes into consideration open items and schedule lines from stock transfer items, stock transfer scheduling agreements and purchase order requests (items only), referred to hereafter as stock transfer documents, for the materials.
All sales documents for the material that are still open are selected. This means that the material index must be activated for at least all sales document types, whose items may have requirements. All stock transfer documents or items for the material that are still open are also selected. Open in this case means for example, that there is no deletion indicator, that the item from a stock transfer purchase order request cannot be labeled as completed or that the quantity delivered and posted to goods issue for the item in a stock transfer purchase order is the same as the amount ordered. An availability check can only be carried out if a checking rule is assigned to the document type - if this is not the case, the document or document item is not checked.
Checking rule 'A' is used as a basis for rescheduling sales orders (exceptions to this are rush orders they use checking rule B, and orders with individual customer stock; they use checking rule AE). Stock transfer documents use the checking rule that is assigned in Customizing for Purchasing. It is important that the scope of checks is consistent for both the stock transfer documents and the sales documents and that they do not exclude each other, as this can lead to incorrect test results. An example of an incorrect setting would be: The scope of check for checking rule 'A' checks delivery schedules for stock transfer purchase orders and stock transfer purchase requests, however the scope of check for the checking rule for the stock transport scheduling agreement does not.
The items and schedule lines found in the selection are sorted according to 'Priorities' - document category, delivery priority, creation date of the item or schedule line (for stock transfer purchase orders and delivery plans) entered on the selection screen or according to the schedule line date of the earliest schedule line with order quantity, document number and item number and then transferred to the availability check. Priority 1 is highest priority and priority 5 the lowest. Stock transfer purchase order requests are sorted after stock transfer purchase orders and scheduling agreements, as they are less binding. This means that when you have identical sort criteria such as delivery dates, the stock transfer purchase order item is checked first and then the item from the stock transfer purchase order request.
The preset option 'Unconfirmed documents required' only carries out rescheduling for materials for which there is at least one unconfirmed transaction.
You can use the parameters 'Sorting criteria delivery date' to define whether sorting is carried out with the order quantity after the creation date of the item or the delivery date of the earliest schedule line.
If you mark the 'Simulation' field, the checked documents are not saved. Instead a results list is generated and saved. However, the availability check for the corresponding documents continues as if saving has taken place already, that is, that the simulated list corresponds to the actual one.
Under 'Options' on the selection screen, specify whether sales documents and/or stock transfer documents should be processed. For stock transfer documents you can enter whether stock transfer purchase orders and scheduling agreements should be processed at item or schedule line level:
Processing at item level:
All open schedule lines for the item are read and collected, then transferred to the availability check. To sort and prioritize documents, you do not need each individual schedule line. It is sufficient to have the item or data from the first schedule line. All open schedule lines for the item are processed and checked.
Example of processing at item level:
Sorting: Date (Delivery date first schedule line) - Document number - Document item
Doc. cat. Doc. number Doc. item Doc. schedule line Delivery date PO        4500000012      10               0001              26.01. PO        4500000012      10               0002              26.02. PO        4500000025      20               0001              28.01. PO        4500000025      20               0002              02.02.
You can see that the second schedule line for document 4500000025/20 from 02.02 was processed after the second schedule line for document 4500000012/10 from 26.02. This is because all open schedule lines for an item are read and processed. The first schedule line from 4500000012/10 has the earliest delivery date, therefore it has priority.
Processing at schedule line level:
Each open schedule line for an item is entered in document sorting in accordance with the values entered under 'Priorities'. The availability check is carried out for each individual schedule line.
Example for processing at schedule line level:
Sorting: Date (delivery date first schedule line) - document number -document item
Doc. cat.    Doc. number Doc. item Doc. sched. line Del. date PO           4500000012    10             0001           26.01. PO           4500000025    20             0001           28.01. PO           4500000025    20             0002           02.02. PO           4500000012    10             0002           26.02.
Here you can see that each schedule line was sorted according to its delivery date. Note that this type of processing requires more runtime due to the individual checks and more frequent saving.
The results of rescheduling are saved, as long as the program was not started in simulation mode. When calling up from the 'Sales' area menu or when directly starting via the development environment, the iniator is informed via a dialog box that he has just started a process that changes data. He can then decide whether or not he wants to continue.
Checking procedure for stock transfer documents:
An availability check of stock transfer documents in rescheduling is carried out in accordance with the check carried out when manually creating a document. If, however, the required quantity for a schedule line is not available on a particular date and will not be ready until later, new schedule lines are created for the stock transfer purchase orders and scheduling agreements, containing the relevant data. New items are created in this case for stock transfer purchase order requirements. The total sum of schedule line quantities for a processed schedule line corresponds to the schedule line quantity of the original schedule line.
First example: Using a stock transfer purchase order item with a schedule line:
a) Status of item before rescheduling run:
Del. date PO quantity   Confirmed quant Confirmed del. date 23.07.      50 items       0 items              -
==> This now affects the stock/requirement situation:
    - Goods issue is posted for the material in the delivering plant on the 23.07.
    - A purchase order of 10 items was created for the material in the delivering plant. Delivery is expected on the 29.07.
b) Status of stock transfer purchase order item after rescheduling run:
Del. date PO quantity   Confirmed quant   Confirmed del. date 23.07.     40 items      40 items            23.07. 29.07.     10 items      10 items            29.07.
==> The first schedule line was changed in accordance with the results of the rescheduling availability check. Only 40 of the 50 original items could be delivered on the 23.07. Therefore, a new schedule line is created for the rest on the 29.07. for 10 confirmed items.
Second example: Same output situation as the above example.
==> There is now a change in the requirement/stock situation:
A purchase order for 10 items is created for the material in the delivering plant. Delivery is expected on the 29.07. A further purchase shows another 40 planned items on the 30.07.
   Status of stock transfer purchase order item after rescheduling run:
Del. date PO quantity Confirmed quant Confirmed del. date 29.07.     10 items       10 items          29.07. 30.07.     40 items       40 items          30.07.
==> The first schedule line was changed in accordance with the result of the availability check for rescheduling. The original delivery date is set to the date confirmed in the ATP check. A new schedule line is created for the remaining 40 items, that are available on the 30.07.
Note:
Any set fixed delivery date and quantity indicators and creation indicators for schedule lines or items are 'inherited' by newly created schedule lines. Assuming that the original schedule line was fixed in the above example (since it is created manually), this indicator is also set for the newly created schedule line.
If shipping scheduling is activated for a stock transfer document type, this is also implemented for newly created schedule lines, with the exception of route schedule determination. This means that in the current version of the program no route schedule has been determined for a schedule line containing a route schedule for which new schedule lines may need to be created.
The results of the run are issued in the form of a list, which is also saved, so that the results can be controlled at a later date. This is done using the function 'Evaluate rescheduling', but it is only a good idea to do this after the first rescheduling has taken place. You can restrict selection requirements but these can however affect the runtime. You can use this function to analyze the saved list until the next rescheduling run, which writes over the result. If you start rescheduling in the background, a spool file with the result list referred to will be created in the corresponding setting. You can see this in spool management.
Output
A list of changed documents, a list of documents in which an error occurred during processing and as a result were not changed, can be called up via the menu 'Edit - Error log'. If in a subsequent evaluation a restricted selection is carried out, a note appears at the end of the list to say that not all document items are displayed.
You can set the scope of the list under the menu option 'List' in the list display. You can view improvements, deteriorations and the whole list. Before the documents can be included in one or either of the restricted lists, the date or quantity has to have changed so that the item can be contained in both the list of improved or deteriorated documents.
You can use the interface for changing transactions and the order list to navigate. Use 'Back' to exit the list and 'New selection' to return to the selection screen.
Recommendation
You should only start this program occasionally and use very restricted selectin criteria during working hours as it requires enormous system resources.
Note
The columns for 'New date' and 'New confirmed qty' only contain entries if the dates or quantities have changed.
As the system only runs the change check (dates/quantities) per line in the original list, an item whose backlog has increased in the list of improvements. This occurs, for example, if the whole quantity can be delivered at once but at a later date. In this situation, the system determines an increase for the line when it compares quantities.

How to save an existing sales quote as a new quote.

Hello,
I am trying to duplicate an existing sales quote. I have a button 'Save As' on the Sales Quotation UI.
On button click a new sales quote should be created with the same information and then the sales quotation UI should be populated with this newly created quote. Hence, only the DocNum in the top right corner is changed from the UI's point of view. Actually i am adding a new record in the OQUT table and the other related tables. I can use the SAPbobsCOM.Documents object, populate it with the existing quote data and create a new quote. But how do i update the Sales Quotation UI with this new object?
What is the best way to achieve this?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Sheetal

You could try the following:-
- set the form mode to Find mode
- set the value of Item "8" (DocNum) to the document number generated by the DI
- Call the click method of Item "1" (Find button)

How to create/choose a sales organisation?

Hello everybody,
i am working with mySAP CRM trying to create a marketing campaign. I am struggling how to create / use a sales organisation.
What i can do is create a sales organisation (within "create organisation modell", sorry using the german version, so definitions are maybe not correct)
When i now want to create a Product catalog, i have to choose a sales organisation, but it just say "no values found"
So my question is, is there a need to activate my sales organisation, or is something else wrong.
Hopefully some of you can help.
Best regards
Heinz

Hi Heinz,
Once you make changes to org model, if it has to be visible for applicaitons working on the model. You have to perform the following activity:
1. Goto SAP CRM IMG Menu: Customer Relationship Management ->Master Data -> Organizational Management -> Tools -> Update List of Organizational Objects
Execute the object for Sales Org.
2. Also Check the consistency of the attribute assignments to the organizational units in the SAP CRM IMG Menu: Customer Relationship Management -> Master Data -> Organizational Management -> Tools ->Check Settings for Attribute Maintenance
3. Also, perform Org data settings check in the SAP CRM IMG Menu: Customer Relationship Management -> Master Data -> Organizational Management -> Tools -> Organizational Data Settings Check
4. Execute Report HRBCI_ATTRIBUTES_BUFFER_UPDATE is used to buffer the attributes of organizational management objects. To enable buffering you have to maintain view T77OMATTR.
Use transaction SE38 to execute the report.
Try doing these, it might help you.

How to define the Market Sales KF, in order to receive the desired result

Hi all,
I dont know how to define the Market Sales Kefigure, in order to get the following result. Any hint is more than welcome.
Prd_ID = Product ID
PS = Product Sales
M_ID = Market ID
MS = Market Sales
MS% = Market Share ( formula in BEX PS/MS)

Prd_ID;PS;M_ID;MS;MS%
A00001;10;MRK1;100;10%
A00002;20;MRK1;100;20%
SBTOT;30;MRK1;100;30%
B00001;40;MRK2;200;20%
B00002;30;MRK2;200;15%
SBTOT;70;MRK2;200;35%
GTOTL;100;MRKX;300;33,3%
Products A00001 and A00002 compete in the same market. So the individual marketshares should be calculated against the market MRK1(200), e.g. 40/200 and 30/200.
The totals now, of the A00001 and A00002 products(3040) should be compared against the same market MRK1(200), and not against the MRK1MRK1(200+200).
Thanks
Vasso Siagri

Maik,
thank you for your answer, but I am afraid this is not giving the desired results.
What I want----
>What am getting
Prd_ID;PS;M_ID;MS;MS%
A00001;10;MRK1;100;10% ---> 10;MRK1;200;5%
A00002;20;MRK1;100;20% ---> 20;MRK1;200;10%
SBTOT;30;MRK1;100;30% ---> 30;MRK1;200;15%
B00001;40;MRK2;200;20% ---> 40;MRK2;400;10%
B00002;30;MRK2;200;15% ---> 30;MRK2;400;7,5%
SBTOT;70;MRK2;200;35% ---> 70;MRK2;400;17,5%
GTOTL;100;MRKX;300;33,3% ---> 1000;MRKX;600;16,7%
Neither resticted KF restricted on Market ID is working for many markets; it is working only if you analyze one market id.
Any idea? bw idea? What actually I need is aggregation of unique records in terms on market id.
