How to populate Special Stock Indicator in IW31/IW32

Hi SAP experts,
I want to populate the Special Stock Indicator under Components Tab automatically when user presses ENTER in T.Code IW31/IW32 based on some condition.
Thanks in Advance.
Help will be rewarded.

Gaurav,
You want to do it during a Call txn BDC or write your conditions as an enhancement?
Assuming that it is a Call Txn BDC, all you need is an additonal field in your input file for the stock indicator, with 'X'. Also, you will have to call the screen & tab (dynpro).
Correct me if I got it wrong.
Reward if helpful.

How to avoid special stock indicator for intercompany sales transitions.

Hi Friends
I have an issue Intercompany sales .if I enter intercompany plant(Delivering plant) in the sales order system is taking special stock indicator and looking for sales order stock.
If I enter company code plant for sales from unrestricted stock, system is not taking special stock indicator.
Please advice how to avoid special stock indicator for intercompany sales transitions.
Thanks in advance.
SRK

Ravi,
Special stock is generally determined by the MRP strategy group in the material master of the plant against which you place your order. The strateg(ies) contained in the strategy group will determine the SO requirements type, which will in turn determine whether or not the order is 'account assigned' (special stock).
It is normal to only have one strategy contained in a strategy group. However (and I seldom recommend this) SAP will support multiple strategies within one strategy group. In this case, you could have both MTS and MTO orders against the same plant/material, by manually altering the requirements type in the sales order. This scenario is usually difficult for a planner, and involves additional manual attention to make everything work.
I suggest that your first avenue is to change the Strategy group in the material master of the delivering plant to one that supports MTS. This has a big impact in Controlling and in Production Planning, so ensure that all affected functional groups are aware of what you are doing, and of the resulting changes that they will experience. The transition from MTO to MTS must be carefully controlled.
If you are not a PP expert, I suggest you consult with your local PP expert before embarking on this change.

Did you maintain the indiv/ coll indicator as 2 after the creation of planned order / production order? If yes, then re-create the order & then check.
If not, then check in BOM Item details if you have maintained them to be as individual.
Check & revert.

How can I enable the Special Stock Indicator in the source list?

Hello Gurus,
How can I enable the Special Stock Indicator in the source list? This can be found in the Maintain source list detail screen, source group and beside the order unit. Even I am in the create or in change mode, still the indicator can't change
Thanks!

OSS note 668764 explains that the special stock indicator field is a display only field and cannot be changed in the source list. it is only taken over from a scheduling agreement.

Change component level special stock indicator for Purchase Ord-through CIF

Hai,
my requirement is to change the the spoecial stock indicator at the component level for the PO .
The purchase reqqusition is available in APO system.At the time converiosn to PO, the PO will get created in R/3 through CIF.
When the Purchase Order is getting saved in R/3 then I need to check the component level Special stock indicator(SOBKZ) & I need change its value.
I am currently using the user exit 'EXIT_SAPLCPUR_001' to change the same.in this user exit, I am changing the component level SOBKZ in the table IT_INPUT & I am also setting X in IT_INPUTX table.
But the changes are not reflecting in the newly created PO.It always shows the value 'E' for SOBKZ.
can any one tell me is this the right user exit to change the above value? if yes please expalin me in rdetail on how to change this.
Thanks,
Bhaskar.

Hai Saurabh,
I have tried changing the CP_POSITION-SOBKZ field in the user exit EXIT_SAPLMEPI_006.This one changes the SOBKZ of the item of PO i.e, the change reflects in EKPO table.
What I am looking for is to change the Component level SOBKZ of the ITEM of the PO.The change reflects in RESB-sobkz table.
I think, In the User exit EXIT_SAPLCPUR_001, the field IT_INPUT-SP_STK_IND is meant for this.But this is not working.
Please inform me how the RESB-SOBKZ can be changed?
Thanks,
Bhaskar

Work Order - Update special stock indicator in components tab

Hi ,
The requirement is to update the special stock indicator in the components tab of work order based on material number. I tried using the BADI Workorder_update but there was no changing parameter in it and hence it did not work, I also tried using the field symbol option to explicitly change the value but that too failed since it went to short dump prompting that a protected field is being changed.
I am thinking of calling a custom function module at last and updating the value, but for the orders which are being created newly the BADI / user exits contains the temporary number . How could I get the Order number and update the indicator for those orders.
Regards,
Prabaharan.G

I used the EXIT_SAPLCOMK_014 to accomplish this.

You can use Accotunt assignment Category D - with Special Stock Indicator E to get the Material into Stock Under Sales Order Stock..
Item Category S - Third Party is used only in case of Third Party Process & athe Account assignment Category Picked is X - All aux.acct.assgts.

Special Stock indicator Setting in SD

Hi all,
I had created the normal delivery Sales Order. But when i'm trying to make delivery against the Sales Order. It gaves me error, Coz some how the Delivery item have Special Stock indicator set to 'E'.
from where i can remove this setting.
Pls note I had Checked the SO Item Category, Schedule line, Account assignment cateogry and the Delivery item Category, but couldnt trace out this Setting.
If any one knew about it, then let me know.
Regards,
S Anand.

Dear Sheo singh
Special stock indicator is set only in Item category with regard to SD that is in VOV7
You can also check in the requirement class details in OVZG
For this you need to find out what is requirement type maintained in your sales order in VA02 procuremet tab
In OVZH you need to see what is the requirement class assigned to your requirement type
In OVZG for your requirement class details you can see whether any special stock indicator is maintained
But here also the value flows from what is maintained in VOV7
Hope this information helps you

Special stock indicator in the OD (goods movement data tab)

Hello SAP Experts,
I would like to ask on how the special stock type indicator field (LIPS-SOBKZ) in the outbound deliveries, under the goods movement data tab, can be populated? For example, with stock type indicator E.
Are there any configs or master data settings that allow the population of the stock type in the ODs? I'm just wondering why we have some ODs (replenishment deliveries) that are having the special stock indicator E, but sometimes, this field is empty. I would like to know what are the factors that allow the special stock type indicator field to be populated.
Thanks in advance!

On the SD side, the special stock indicator on a delivery line item is copied from the sales order line item.
And the special stock indicator on the sales order line item is determined from the item category.
If you are referring to the MM side of things, (and based on your description of the use of the 'replenishment deliveries you might be), then there probably are corresponding configuration on the MM side of things.

In case of postings with active QM-interface a 'Q' is displayed in this field.
1 = random picking

Special stock indicator in production order

Hi,
We have a new business scenario from sales department.
For example, A is a MTO item, it has component B & C. Now there is a sales order for A come in, and system create a production order, but there is no enough stock for B. They want to:
1, Allocate C to the production order and other production order or sales order can not take it away via V_V2 or MRP run.
2. Create another seperate purchase order for B and want this purchase order also allocate to this production order.
3. They do not want to use WIP stock because it is difficult to display WIP stock in SAP you know.
I trying to use the special stock indicator "E" for components in production order, and I move C to custom stock via 412 E with no issue.
But when I create a purchase order for B with account assignment "F", it goes to normal stock in MD04. After I post GR for the purchase order, the quantity goes to production order directly, does not show in MD04 and did not reduce the requirement quantity.
If I create a purchase order for B with account assignment "E", it gives an error message "Sales document item is not defined for the transaction. I tried to change the requirement type from "KMFA" to "KE" in the sales order for A, and the production order disappeared, it is not accepted.
How should I define and configure the process?
Thank you so much.
Albert

Hi Albert
I suggest you to take a look on the setting "individuall/collective" on the tab MRP4 of the material master.
For both components, you should set the value 1 and system will always plan the components under the sales order special stock.

IW32 - changing special stock indicator on component reservation

Hello
My client has a question with regards to chaning the special stock indicator on a reservation through transaction IW32. We can change a reservation from blank SSI to special stock indicator P but we are unable to change special stock indicator P to SSI blank. Do any of you know if this is possible.
Also, do you know if there is a BAPI that exists for this transaction?
Many thanks
Sue

Thank you for the information but I am not clear on what you are saying...
I understand that the settings that are in MRP screens will drive the reservation i.e. individual / collective and EX lot for lot but what I don't understand it how that stops you changing the reservation once it has been created.
I can create a reservation for a material if it is ind / coll and EX without the item having a special stock indicator P. I can then change the reservation from blank to P. What I cannot do is if the reservation was created with a special stock indicator of P, I cannot change to blank.
Kind regards
Sue

Special stock indicator in Production Order Component overview

Hi Team,
I have one finished product , for which i have created BOM . It has only one component in it .
Now i am creating a Sales order , based on the definition and requirement set , system is creating a production order in background.
When i go to production order and see components overview screen , there is one field special stock . This is getting filled with '1' - Individual customer stock always.
Even though we have stock in storage location , it is expecting components to be in Sales order stock .
If i create a stand alone production order for same materials , there is no special stock indicator set in components .
Can any body let me know how is this special stock field getting populated and what settings has to be reviewed in order to supress the same.
Thanks,
sudhakar

Sudhakar,
Check the MRP parameter 'Individual/Coll' in MRP4 view for the components. This should be set as 2 for collective planning. If this flag is left blank then planning will be based on the parent material (If the parent material is planned for special stock then the components will also be planned for special stock)
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Jaison

Special stock Indicator in process order

Hi Guys,
I am using Configurable material via BOM dependency. During sales order pop-up and selection are coming well. I have selected Component A1, B2, C2 with characteristic value. Now B2 and C2 have procurement type "F" and for A1 procurement type was X. After MRP run, saw in the planned order as 'special stock type E" for A1 material and in process order it is not taking plant stock. Instead it is asking for sales order stock and componet view shows Account assignment as "M" and special stock indicator as "Individual customer stock". Now I changed the procurement type as "F" and delete re-create MRP/ BOM re-run MRP........still it is not picking up plant stock in availability, instead now asking for purchase requisition. For B2 and C2, not asking for ourchase requisition as there is plant stock. . Why it is happening and how to solve it?
Thanks
Krish

Solved it......It was availability check issue.
