Initial Stock Posting for Semi Finished Goods

Dear Friends,
I have a small doubt in Initial Stock Posting.
Is Initial Stock Posting for Semifinished Goods (HALB)?
Or Initial Stock Posting available only for Finished Products?
Please answer this.
Regards,
Rajesh L

Hi,
MB1C + 561 can be used for all of your goods from which you want to keep stock. So, raw materials, SFGs, FGs can be uploaded based on your business requirement.
Your material masters should be extended to the suitable organisational levels (plant, SLoc, WH), so suitable material master views should exist at proper organisational levels.

Incorrect Initial Stock calc for Semi-finished products in SNP PBook

Dear all,
Situation is as follows:
The Stock list on /SAPAPO/RRP3(Product View) matches the Stock in ECC (MMBE) perfectly. Also when we load the product in our SNP planning book, right click on the Stock on Hand and then Display Stock, it matches the RRP3 and the ECC stock.
Still the actual Initial stock displayed in the Planning book Cell in the initial column and thereafter is different from what the actual sum of stocks should be. This quantity is huge (in millions!). There is no Receipts planned which can contribute to this!!!
Is this a known bug in SAP? Can we rectify by running any programs?
Note: Already tried CCR, OM17, everything looks fine (which actually is because RRP3 view matched ECC perfectly.)
Kindly help.
Regards,
Rimjhim

Hi ,
I couldn't find any problem with the macro.
One more observation:
The UOM in ECC is KG (in transaction MMBE). The base UOM in APO is ZUN (customized Tonnes).
The conversion in Prod Master is 100 ZUN=7484 KG
If we change this conversion to 1 ZUN = 1 KG then in the planning book the Initial Stock start showing as OK.
The random value shown earlier doesn't seem connected to the UOM conversion, it's just a very very high value. How can there be a connection between UOM conversion and the Initial Stock display.
Any ideas?

Auto GR/IR for Semi Finished goods in Work in Progress stage.

Dear All,
What are account postings going to happen while issuing semi finished goods from from one process to other process by using Auto GR/IR.
Regards,
Venkat.

Dear sapper2000,
Work in progress:If my understanding is correct,then any unfinished product can be said as work in progress.
Work in process or progress are partially completed goods, parts, or subassemblies that are no longer part of the raw
materials inventory and not yet part of the finished products inventory.Check this link to explore more on this topic,

Material price for semi finished.

Dear All,
What is the suggesatable price control for semi finished goods. i.e., either moving ave price or standard price.
Regards,
Venkat.

Dear Venkat Ramana,
SAP recommends: 
Price control V for Raw materials and Trading goods;
S for Semi-finished products and Finished products.
You are required to valuate Semi-finished and Finished products with actual prices that correspond to the costs of the actual production, SAP recommends you use the function of the material ledger for this. Here, a periodic actual price is created that is calculated on a much more reliable basis than the moving average price. A so-called price limiter quantity is used. In addition, it is possible as of Release 4.5 to even take into account the variances of the actual prices of the Raw materials in the valuation of the Semi-finished and Finished products that are manufactured from it.
With regards,
B.Ravindranath

Stop netting for semi finished materials

Hi all,
   We are still using 46C. We have finished goods that are configurable and we use SUPERBOMs to pick the component that go along with the finished goods. I have a requirement where I have to stop the netting process for some semi finished materials in a certain storage location. We currently use strategy group '40' for semi finished.
I tried to use storage location MRP indicatior (MRP 4 view, sloc indicator). By doing so MRP stopped the netting which is what I wanted but it also stopped creating any new planned orders.
I want planned orders to be created but MRP should not read the stock. For example if the requirement is of 10 pcs and I have lets say 6 in stock, I still need planned order of 10.
I am more leaning toward writing a Z program to wipe out the inventory every night before the MRP run but was curious to see if there is any strategy group that I can use on the components to satisfy my needs.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Regards
Srikant

Hi Srikant
    For this situation you can go for a User Exit! while MRP run
    1. first create a user defined field in the material master for Unrestricted stock exclusion.
   2, create the User exit which should be used while plant level MRP run.
    the user exit should select materials for exclusion of SLOC stock.
for those materials you can use the following logic in the user Exit
if the Unres stock is availbale then then user exit should dynamically create a safety stock value so that MRP will neglect the Unrestricted stock and create the Proc Proposal for full quantity.
hope this helps

Unfortunately, other than MB5B, there is no report, which will give stock as on a particular date. There are reports available in inventory info system, which gives stock as of month end or today. e.g. MC.9, MB5T, MBLB, MCBA, MCBC etc.

Semi finished goods

Hi experts,
how we can define an item as semi finished goods, and that items can't added with any of the warehouses.
regards,
Sanju M S

With out assigning to the ware house, you canu2019t create any item in SBO.
For that you can create an item group namely semi finished good. Create one drop ship warehouse. You can also make your item as a Phantom item. Now what ever you are going to create an item with regard to Semi finished goods that an item should be linked with semi finished goods (item group) and link this item to the drop ship ware house.
So, sap systems will not taking to the Semi-finished stock in to sap stock account.

Difference between WIP (work in progress) and Semi finished goods

what is the difference between WIP (work in progress) and Semi finished goods
and how to handle their valuation seperately in SAP.
pls help with some specific important inform on both   WIP   and semi f

Hello Sanjeev,
The difference between SFG and WIP is that ,
1 ) Valuation Class For SFG starts 7***   but WIP material stock starts with 3***
2 ) Stock / inventory of SFG can be seen at point of time but WIP is an Order item
3 ) We can find the stock of SFG at any point of time say it is having specific storage location But WIP is calculated from
    Order for which items are drawn .
4 ) Example You have to manufacture Product AAA which contains SFG1 , 2 , 3 which is made up of some component items
    once SFG 's made the inventory is updated during GR but the components lying in the shop floor required to complete the order
   so we want to know at any point of time how many these materials are lying and the same was issued against Order
   reservation to finish the balance Order Quantity is called WIP. You have confirmed only say 80 Pcs of FERT out of 100 Pcs
   remaining 20 Pcs needs to be confirmed and is being manufactured in the shop floor and the same is lying as WIP .
Material Consumption to Production Order:
In FI:
ROH consumption Account       Dr (PROFIT & LOSS ACCOUNT)
To ROH Inventory Account       Cr (BALANCE SHEET)
Same in the case with HALB
In CO: Cost of Material is
In CO: Cost of Material is debited to Production Order
   For WIP :
Calculation of WIP In FI:
      WIP Account                           Dr. (BALANCE SHEET)
To Change in WIP Account      Cr (PROFIT & LOSS ACCOUNT)
If the Order is completed:
In FI:
Change in WIP Account           Dr (PROFIT & LOSS ACCOUNT)
To WIP Account
Pl come back if you have any doubt,

Extending the Material from FG Material to Semi Finished good.

Dear All,
I am doing the STO (INTRA COMPANY) from plant 1 to Plant 2 for FG
While receiving the material in plant 2, I have to take as Semi finished good (SFG).
Is it possible? Bcz the Material Type is FG in Plant 1, so we can't change Valuation class of the Material while extending in Plant as SFG. How can I achieve this with same Material code?
While selling the same Material from Plant 2, I will add some part and I will it as a FG.
Please guide me.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramu

Hi Sudhir,
Thanks for your reply.
But my requirement is in Plant the Material type should be FERT(FG) and while extending the same material in Plant 2, the Material Type sholud change to HALB(Semi finished).
As per ur answer I can change the Material Type for the Material in bith the Plants.
Plz guide me.
Thanks & Regards,
RAM

Posting of semi finished products

Hello Everyone,
I had an issue regarding posting of semi finished products. Earlier during production, Production executives had created some production orders for semi finished products and had not transferred the corresponding quantities to the store. Still production continued for the top level finished products and GR has occured for the same. Later these production orders for finished products were also set the status TECO.
Now upon analysing the system still shows the production orders open for the semi-finished products. Now its practically impossible to trace back against which superior level order this semi finished order is raised.
Moreover since these orders are still open, the system does'nt raise additional orders for the corresponding quantities wheras these orders were raised earlier for previous orders.
I would greatly appreciate any help to tackle this issue.
Sincerely,
Aji Kurian Mani

Hi,
Pls run the optimiser with prod = A and Loc = A+B
It should work fine. Also in the t code /sapapo/mvm, check if the check box for 'No planned orders without source of supply' is clicked or not. If it is clicked, then you need to maintain a PPM for prod A at loc B. If it is unchecked, optimiser will create planned orders for A at loc B even without a PPM.
Pls let me know if this helps.

There is no difference in SFg and FG Material master. some time Straegy group will differ.
FOR BOM
create a seperate Bom For SFG anf FG
In SFG BOM - maintain what are the materials required to make the FG in Compnent and the quantity.
In FG BOM- maintain SFG material as component and give the quantity, item category and other raw material or SFG
