Interchangeability groups (FFF-Class)

Needs to develop its own program allows to create interchangeability group (type of FFF-class). I've already learned thread List of materials assigned to Interchangeability group. (List of materials assigned to Interchangeability group.) and found a solution how to get a list of materials assigned to interchangeability groups and how to add them to the model.
But I would like to receive information about FM or BAPI that can help me create and delete groups, and even change the lock status.

Hi Alexander,
                     /INCMD/EXT_MATNR is the product name from /sapapo/matkey table only.You can check the Function Module documentation of /INCMD/BAPI_GROUP_SAVE in which SAP has provided 5 examples also.
Example 1: Create supersession chain
Example 2: Update supersession chain
Example 3: Create supersession chain with product combination
Example 4: Create FFF class with FFF subsets
Example 5: Create procedure
If you want to get the Product name from Product GUID you can use below available FMs
/SAPAPO/DM_MATERIAL_GET_MATID - Provides Material ID &
/SAPAPO/DM_MATID_GET_MATERIAL - Determines External # for Internal Material Number

  • Part interchangeability with FFF class and FFFC - HERB material type

    Experts-
    Have you worked with Part interchangeability with FFF class and FFFC or HERB material type?
    I am looking for cross-reference functionality for interchangeable materials from maintenance/service perspective. We have users changing manufacturer's part number as and when needed and maintaining cross-reference via classification. Maintaining SAP part number and HERS is too much data maintenance, so we are looking for simple solution.
    We are in standard ECC 6.0. (No APO). I checked OSS 181764, but it doesn't help us in instructions for enhancement.
    If this needs activation for DIMP or A&D, do you know enhancement for this?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi
    I have been involved with a client who is interested to know the implementation of FFF functionality. Can you share your experience  in a bit more details.
    The client is interested in using parts where multiple models are available in the market and few of them are interchangeable. They would like to purchase it as an asset and then manage the inventory as non valued material. How does it work throuh the APO for forecasting and demand planning functionalities.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Mass creation of interchangeability groups

    Hi,
    for our go live in September we need to create around 500 interchangeability groups. As this would be a very big manual and time consuming affort by using the TA: /incmd/ui, we would like to use a "mass transaction" to create them.
    Does anybody have an idea whether something like this exists and how we could work with it?
    The idea is to have a list with the successor and predecessor products.
    Thanks,
    Nico

    Hi,
    You can use BAPI " /INCMD/BAPI_GROUP_SAVE  to create or change interchangeability groups of type
    Supersession chain
    FFF class
    FFF subset
    Restricted interchangeability for FFF classes
    Product substitution procedure
    Location chain
    Location product chain
    Location determination procedure
    Location product substitution procedure .
    This BAPI also enables to assign models to the interchangeability groups.
    The same BAPI can be used for both create as well as change.
    Thanks,

  • Link-Group Asset Class, Depreciation Area & Depreciation Key

    Dear Experts,
    I am new to FI-AA Customization & have a basic query about Group Asset Concept.
    I am working on Ecc 6.0 & for Country India.
    I want to create Group Asset for calculation of Depreciation as per Income Tax Act.  Hence there is just one Depreciation Area (for Group Assets) , but the Depreciation keys are different.  E.d IN1, IN2 etc. (Country Version India)
    Now the questions are :
    1) Do we need to create different Asset Class for different Group Assets or to create just 1 Asset Class for all Group Assets.
    E.g. I want to calculate Depreciation As per income Tax Act on Gross Block of Building, Furniture & Fixture, Motor Car, Vehicles etc. So I need to create separate Group Asset Class for each one of above or just to create one Group Asset Class.
    2) If we need to create just one Asset Class for all Group Assets; how to maintain a Depreciation Key in OAYZ as there are more than 1 Depreciation Keys?
    3) is there any other method / functionality to calculate Depreciation as per income Tax Act or Group Asset is the only functionality?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Reshma

    Dear,
    Reshma.
    Looking at your Questions let us take explanation for Group Assets :-
    1 ) We need to create new different asset class for Group Class in OAOA. Then permit the depreciation area for only Group Asset in OAYM as it is in your current scenario India  is Depreciation Area 15 Just select your company code in OAYM and check the Grp Asset field for respective area 15. Then go to OAAX here we have to maintain the assets classes particularly for Group Assets. So check your Group Asset classes for Group Assets. Cerate different Group asset classes for your said requirement.
    In these depreciation areas, it is then possible to make an assignment to a group asset.  You make this assignment in the specifications for the depreciation area in the asset master record.  When you post an acquisition to this kind of asset, the system duplicates the line items from this depreciation area on the given group asset.
    2 ) According to me you have to create different depreciation keys for Group Asset classes. Assign the Depreciation keys to your newly created Group Asset Classes in OAYZ and make sure you are deactivating 01 area which is Book Depreciation area.
    3 ) As far as I know this is the only functionality available to handle Group Assets. How ever SAP does not have any standard Group Assets functionality. SAP does not supply asset classes to be used solely for group assets. It is we have to determine as per varying Business Process.
    I hope this will clear your doubt makes you to understand. Please revert back for further clarification. Welcome you.

    Hi,

    Whenever I go to t-code PIC01, I try to search (F4) for these classes, but only one appears.
    The others are created in the same way. It looks like an error of the search in the field "FFF  Class"... Any advice you can give me in order that if i search, all the classes are listed??

  • Group Asset Class

    Hi,
    How to define Group Asset Class in Asset Accounting ?

    Hi Vickss,
    Group assets are used for reporting of Income tax as per IT act .
    settings for group assets done in fallowing ways,
    a) OAYM - to define the depritiation areas that would be used for group assets .
    b) OAAX - where in you decide which all asset class are to be used for group asset functionality .
    You create the group asset using the T code AS21 and then assign the same to the depreciation areas or asset classes at the time of creation of the asset through say AS01 .
    This Might help u to understand Group Asset.
    Regards

    Hi Amol,
    If the symbol for the dangerous goods regulation (G1022024LW) is defined within the repeating group S:CLASS, the characteristic values that are not relevant are suppressed by the UN listed substance.
    This ensures that the system only outputs the UN listed substance legal data valid for the corresponding regulation.

  • Material groups, valuation classes and GL acccounts

    HI Gurus,
    I need to setup new material groups with descriptions, valuaiton classess and their related GL accounts. What steps do i nned to follow.
    PLease explain '
    Thanks
    Anusha

    Go to transacition OMSF to define the material group
    Go to transaciotn OMSK to define the valuation class
    here you can define or use existing A/C ategory reference than create valuation calss and assign the A/C category to that valution class and next step you can assign the material type
    G/L account you can define in FS00 transaciotn and you can assign them to the valution class in OBYC transcation.

  • Material groups-valuation classes combination

    Hello,
    I have material groups which are created for services, and they don't have a material code. When I purchase these materials, I enter the cost center as account assignment type, and the service I'm purchasing and the material group I mentioned for these services.
    Below, it asks the GL account. In order to avoid entering this GL account every time I purchase services, I want to combine these material groups to the valuation classes. And then those valuation classes and GL accounts will be combined in T030 table.
    Where could I do this combination through customizing this matching of valuation classes and the material groups?
    Thanks in advance
    Irem

    Hello forum!
    I customized a specific material group with a valuation class (transaction omqw).
    During a PO creation, the GL account is displayed by default when i enter a blank material and the material group that i previously customized.
    However, if I enter a material code with the specific material group, the field of the GL account is empty.
    Do you have any suggestions in order to have a default GL account at PO in the case that the material has a code but it has no valuation class?

  • I am a fitness director and looking for an app that will allow me to sale and track group fitness classes. What app do you think would be best for this?

    I want to sale classes individually and in packages. I'll need to track when purchases are made and then when credits have been redeemed (if they purchased a package of classes). I suspect I'd need an app in the bussiness category, but there are so many and some with a few qualities I'm looking for, but missing a key component. I can't be the only one looking for a solution like this. Right?!
