Impact of VC with Sales Order process on PP and MM

Hi,
My question is regarding configuration parameter ‘Process’ in configuration profile of a material. I have selected Sales Order (SET)
for the solution I am working on.
The requirement is to sell a product (FERT) with a service (NLAG). The product has only one characteristic with different values
representing service levels. For example, Computer with either premium service level, advanced service level, or standard service level.
The product computer has a production BOM with raw materials. I have a created another sales BOM as a part of variant configuration
with dependencies.
I am able to enter the product (configured) with service as its characteristic using variant configuration.
The order was delivered and invoiced without any error. However, marking the product as variant configured is impacting production planning(PIR
and MM( the product is also source through STO).
I would like to know why PP and MM is getting impacted as the configured material should only be relevant to SD(selected SET in configuration
profile) We don’t want to take the material configuration to PP or MM as the product need to be manufactured or procured without any
configuration and VC only need to be applied in sales order.
What is wrong with my approach? Am I missing something? if yes, what would be the correct approach considering my requirement?
Your guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Abdul

Hi Amber & Ritesh,
Yes, sales SET alone doesn’t affect planning or MM if item only has only sales BOM. The system
looks for configuration in production BOM as the material (FERT) is set as 'Material is configurable' i.e., MARA-KZKFG
Perhaps, I didn’t put much detail in my message. The errors (message no. 61259, 06836) in PIR and PO are due to MARA-KZKFG for finish good. For that, I either need to select Prod/Planning or Order BOM in planning profile and perform the required configuration to make it work. However,
this is not our requirement.
I want to be able to sell a set of Finish good (FERT) with service item(NLAG) using VC. However, the system doesn’t allow that due to above reason.
Please check the following SAP Help link. Here to my understanding, the header material can be set as configured material and only component could have production BOM.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/35/1db853dcfcb44ce10000000a174cb4/content.htm.
“This processing form means that in the sales order you can only process sales-relevant BOM items. You can use the item category group to define that requirements transfer and pricing are at component level. “
Ritesh, I think VC is ideal for MTO but we should be able to use it for MTS scenario. Regarding the BOMs, I wanted the same what you have explained. However, I don’t think, I can have two BOMs. My production BOM is getting impacted due to MARA-KZKFG so does the PIR&MRP.
As mentioned above, the production BOM got activated for configured material.
Thank you,
Abdul

Report for Late Sales Order Processing

Hello all, business want to have a report the shows if sales order are late for processing. Something similar to VL10H for delivery but based on the customer requested delivery date instead of the confirm delivery date in VL10H. Some report that would indicate that the sales order is late and must be process for delivery as soon as possible.
Is there something similar existing already in SAP ? I don't want to reinvent the wheel !!
Thanks a lot !
Mathieu Pagé

Though, you can always create a quick SAP query using SQVI.
Join tables VBAK (sales order header), VBAP (item) and VBEP (schedule line) on fields VBELN, POSNR.
Select all the fields you are interested in and in the selection you can have VBEP-EDATU (schedule line date which you can compare with today's date to see if there are line items), VBEP-BMENG (confirmed qty), VBEP-WMENG (ordered quantity) and lastly the field you are interested in "Customer requested delivery date" VBAK-VDATU

In Third Party sales order processing how we come to know that the customer

Hi SAP SD Gurus,
In Third Party sales order processing how we come to know that the customer is recived the Goods from the vendor?
Thanks & Regards,
Sreenivas.P

From a high level view, the behavior should work like this:
- Sales order placed from customer PO via Tcode VA01. Purchase Requisition created upon saving the order
- Purchase order created with reference to Purchase Requisition via Tcode ME21N
- Receive confirmation from vendor that goods have shipped via EDI
- Create invoice receipt to vendor via Tcode MIRO
- Create billing document to bill customer via VF01

Bottom/base price check in Sales order processing

Hi
In my company we are using process Sales Order > DO > Billing. Same pricing procedure for sales document types and billing types. No pricing procedure for DO. Our management wants to implement bottom price check in sales order processing e.g there must be one sale price on which sale invoice will be booked and there must also be one static price maintained and system will check after all taxes and discounts calculation that net value should not be less then bottom price.
Currently we are using user exit in enhancement MV45AFZZ. Our ABAPER has written logic in this of following scenario. We have maintained commercial price in ZCOM condition type and bottom price in ZBAS condition type. Lets take and example
ZCOM = Sale price= 500
ZDIS = Discount = 100
Net value/Amount for credit check 500-100 = 400
ZBAS Bottom price = 450
In above scenario system should not allow to save sale order/billing document and give error "Sale price is below bottom price" Then user will change the discount from 100 to 50 and Net value will be then 450 and system will allow to save sale order/billing document.
I want to to do this in Pricing procedure pricing routines. Please tell me is it possible with calculation types? Im wondering if we can do this in enhancement then we must write the same logic in VOFM pricing routine and we can control this from there too. In our current ABAP check everything is working fine but I just want to minimize the use of ABAP checks and enhancements and control the things from functional side not from ABAP.
Please let me know if someone need more clarification or someone have any productive suggestions in this regard. If there is any other solution it will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Similar functionality is already there, where if the net price of an item differs from "Customer expected price" (conditions EDI1/EDI2) then SAP automatically pushes the order into incompletion. You can ask the developer to see how EDI1 is used in the pricing logic.
However, the condition EDI1 is used to check if the item value is different to Customer expected price in case of EDI orders and is not standard for your requirement. But you get my drift, that you can have your own condition in the pricing procedure that will fetch the base price value and can be used in the logic to show an error message (to stop order processing) or push into incompletion log similar to condition EDI1

Third party sales Order processing

Hi gurus,
During Third party sales order processing, Purchase requision has been generated with account assignemnt category 'X',
While converting the Purchase requisition to Purchase order the system is not allowing me to save the purchase order,
As soon as i hit the save button the Pricing conditions are being deleted in purchase order ?
When i hit the save button again System is throwing me out giving a message
System error (error in method PO_CHECK)
Message no. ME816
This is happening only when a purchase order is being created for third party sales order processing.
Has any one faced this issue before, if yes please advise gurus,
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Gopio.

Hi
The account assignment category X has been maintained in
schedule line category CS and it is recommended by SAP
Yes perfectly right
SAP recommends only X as account assignment category for CS
If the PR is created successfully then there is no problem with related to SD configurations
The error message is more of an MM error
You need to check with an MM expert why that happens while creating PO from PR
I feel since this happns while saving the transaction there might be some userexit used which may be root cause
System error (error in method PO_CHECK)
Message no. ME816
As per my knowledge this is not a standard error
Because of activation of some userexit this is triggered
Functionally this is a MM area error
From SD side everything is correct
Regards
Raja

Consume PIR with Delivery, instead of with Sales Order

Hi Experts,
I am posting this question here, because in PP forum I did not find solution.
Is it possible and how, planned independent requirements (PIR) to be consumed not with sales orders, but with outbound deliveries?
I did the following customizing - created Z1 plannign strategy as a copy of strategy 40. In Z1 I changed the customer requirements type from KSV to 011 (Delivery requirement). Requirements transfer is disabled for sales orders and is enabled for deliveries.
When delivery is created it is displayed and planned from MRP but it does not consume the PIR.
Consumption mode and periods, as well as strategy Z1 are maintained in my material master.
Please advise is this possible and how?
Thanks in advance,
Nikolay

Hi Madhu and thank you for reply.
Please find my answers bellow.
1) Customer requirements will be taken into account first OK.
Yes, but not SO, just outbound delivery.
2) Sales orders that exceed planned independent requirements can influence production OK.
Not sales orders, but deliveries must influence the production.
3) The most important factor is the ability to react flexibly to the customer demand OK.
OK
4) Planned Independent requirements are allocated and reduced during sales order processing OK.
The consumption must be done upon delivery, not on sales order.
5) PIR's will be reduced at goods issue for delivery OK.
I want to have PIR reduced when delivery is created.
Thanks and waiting for your reply.

GR QUANTITY NOT MATCH WITH SALES ORDER QTY IN DELIEVERY

Hello Experts.
due to over delivery tolerance in purchase order , some times we do gr for more than sales order qty for an item
for eg in sales order item qty = 3000
and during GR we receive 3052 due to delivery tolerence
so at the time of making delivery thru vl01n sales order qty copies which is 3000 .
i need that sys should copy the qty from GR qty OR sys shud give an error msg , for this is there any Configuration method in sap
OR using Enhancement
Regards: Hemant

Hi
Check whether the sales order creation date and actually when you created the delivery ? if say u created the sales order yesterday with yesterday date as delivery date and carried out delivery process to day means. The delivery date in the delivery process will be today date in that case delivery date wont match with sales order. This is one case like that so many cases are there.
Material might not be confirmed etc....

Kindly help

Kindly do the following Settings :-
1. Create Sales Order Type in VOV8 and maintain Order Related Billing only with Billing Type as F1.
2. Use item Category as TAD
3. Assign Item category in VOV4 with Sales Order Type + LEIS = TAD
4. Maintain the Same Item Category group in Material Master.
Also maintain the Copy Control Settings between Sales Order type & Billing Type.

Status : Being Processed in Sales Order after the Delivery and Billing also

Hi All,
For one Sales Order........ Delivery and Billing are over but it shows
In the Sales Order> Header level>Status bar>Overall Status>Being Processed.
In Document Flow:
Sales Order xxxxxxxxx : Being Processed.
Delivery xxxxxxxxxxxx : Completed.
Billing xxxxxxxxxxxxx : Completed.
Functionally we checked everything......but through technically we can solve the issue or not
Pls help me with some solutions.
Advanced Thanks.
Diwakar Reddy.
[email protected]

Hi,
This generally happens if the sales order is for a quantity greater than the quantity delivered.
SAP treats the sales order as still open and delivery of the remaining quantity is possible through that sales order itself. So the status is shown as "Being Processed".
If you want to see the status as "Completed" then you need to cancell the remaining open items in that sales order. Automatically the status will change to "COMPLETE"
Hope this solves your querry.

SO Header DFF values to be passed to PO in Dropship Sales Order Process

Hi Friends,
In the Dropship sales Order process, after booking the Sales Order we run the Requisition Import to get the requisition in approved status and subsequently PO is autocreated.
Problem Statement:
(1) In the SO, we have defined DFF wherein we are capturing few values, the requirement is to replicate those values to the auto-created PO. Requesting for some hint/solution preferably from front end.
(2) In case, we are able to replicate the values. Can we exclude few attributes from being replicated. Ex. I have 7 attributes in SO's header level DFF and only 5 out of 7 to be replicated on PO header level DFF.
Thanks.
With Best Regards,
Nirabh Nayan

There is no seeded functionality to transfer the DFF info from drop ship SO to PO.
You will have to write a customization. (That is what we ended up doing at one client). In the customization, you can write the logic to exclude certain attributes.
