How to setup MM costing and drive for new parts before ECM release key is triggered?

Hi,
    I am on the engineering side of SAP ERP where I create new materials, BOMs, etc.  We do this with a change master without release key today.   We are switching to a more controlled/managed process for engineering changes where we will use change masters with a release key and approval workflows for these tasks (ECM).   The problem we are seeing is that the supply chain side of the business is not able to perform their tasks of costing materials and driving for new parts until the ECM workflows are complete, release key is active, and the changes are valid for production.  There must be a way for supply chain to perform these tasks beforehand, so that when the release key becomes active, material costing is complete, new materials are already on hand (or at least been ordered), so that the process of procurement/production orders are not delayed.  Can you point me to documentation that provides an overview, or summarizes what the best practices are for our supply chain when we start working with ECM release keys?
Thanks,
Joseph

the release key allows you to release the change for specific business functions. Please look at the options available in release key configuration. You will need multiple release keys to bring the changes in a more controlled manner.

    Hi,
    Anybody who can help me how to setup new company.
    And also how to setup row, rock and bin because we need to assign a location for our spare parts inventory.
    Thanks in advance.

    Row/rack/bin sounds like an inventory system. For a simple system you might want to build your own from scratch, but for even a mid-sized company you really want a shrink-wrapped solution -- i.e. Oracle apps or SAP.
    You don't want to be figuring out how to model material transactions, move orders, etc. Nor do you probably want to dive into various cost accounting options.

    Read and follow the Bootcamp Installation instructions that you were offered to view when you ran Bootcamp Assistant.
    Run Bootcamp Assistant again and select the option to download the Bootcamp Support software. Follow the instructions. Then boot into Windows and install the Windows Support software you downloaded and saved.

  • How to configure the runtime and consolidation for a track in CMS.

    How to configure the runtime and consolidation for a track in CMS.
    I can see the track exists in CMS but the same doesnt pull up in the NWDS in the development configuration perspective.
    I compared the given track with the one which gets pulled up in NWDS. Theres something called runtime system and consolidation which isnt defined for the track which is invisible.
    Please advise , what are these required for. And how can we configure the same.

    The runtime systems are defined for a track to setup the Transport path for any code changes....the Consolidation system is usually defined as a Virtual system for the track and used for comparison and fixing any broken or Dirty DC's ....that means it's not used as a Runtime System for Deployment as compared to DEV,QAT and PROD used for Deployment...
    Hope it helps..

  • What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?cc=us

    What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?
    How would one go about arranging for such service?
    Why is it impossible to contact a real human for support, either via online chat or phone? 

    Last I checked I am a real human, it is just that I do not work for HP and can't speak for them. HP would not be the place I would go for a "refurbish" job. They charge an arm and a leg for out of warranty service. You simply need to find someone to replace the system board (motherboard). It is also very likely on that model that you could have your system board repaired. There are many services on ebay that will repair the motherboard at the component level. The cost would be at or under $100 or so. I have more advice to give but many times I write a detailed response only to have the user never come back. I do check my posts so if you want more ideas just please respond. The tx2-1000 was one of the models affected by the nVidia issue that caused so many HP laptops made in the 2007-2009 era to fail prematurely. 

  • How Do You Test a Flash Drive for Errors Using OS X?

    HI. In Windows there are Flash Drive tester that tests if there's something wrong with the Flash drive's chips. How do you test a flash drive for errors on OS X? I bought the HP v220w which is tiny for a 16GB and it's metal. The whole thing goes into the plug. Design wise, it is great, it's very elegant like a jewelry. Thanks in advance.

    Format it for OS X and run a surface scan on the partition. That should show any hardware problems that don't keep it from working altogether.

    The Radeon 9000 driver works for the Radeon 7500 card.  I have successfully used it on a T43 with Vista Ultimate x86

    Unfortunately no.  The Radeon 9000 driver should bring your graphics score up to close to 2, but it will not get it high enough to enable Aero support.
