Invalid Batch ** in Batch Determination

Hi
The system does not propose any batches, I receive the error message above. What else could be missing?
Analysis Log shows only as follows:
Batch stocks are being read...
Batch 0000000060 Storage location 0020
Search according to selection criteria...
Batch 0000000060
Criteria of shelf-life and expiry date, seems to meet the requirement ... How can I check which criteria is not met?

Hi,
Put the storage location details at the delivery line item level. Then do the batch determination.
If that does not resovle then, compare the selection data in both VCH3 record and batch classification value (MSC3N). Batch classification values also needs to be checked, for example a customer number may be added in one of the characteristics and that characteristics may not have any value in VCH3.
Check whether the batch is put on the restricted status in MSC3N. The batch should be released to unrestricted status.

Changed Material from non-batch to batch-managed

Dear Gurus,
Could anyone advise on the steps that I need to perform in order to change the material from non-batch to batch-managed in the material master?
There are stocks being captured in current month and previous month
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Batch management for existing material can not be done if it has stock and value.You can keep stock value NIL (By reversing) and then proceed with batch management.Batch Management you doing means , you just subdividing the material according to its characterstics of material.
The Customisation steps are:
1.Create Characterstics,
2.Create Class,
3.In material master, select classification view and tick batch management
4.Go to Logistic General->Batch Management->Batch Det and back Chk->Condition table-> Define Inventory Management Condition table
4.2 . Like wise Define Acess Sequense,
4.3.Strategy Types,
4.4.batch Serch Procedure,
4.5.Batch Srech Procedure and allocation,
4.6..Condition Record: Logistic->Central Function->Batch Management-> Batch Determination->Batch serch Stratergy->For Inventory Manament-> Create
Once you do all customising steps,Then you can receive the material as per you requirement.Example....Lets say H2SO4,you are receiving 98%,70% and 50% purity.According to you requirement and supply from Vendor you can keep in three different batches.This characterstic of material you can maintain in creating the characterstic ,,step-1.

Batch to Batch Transfer and Tracking

Question,
Since Batch to batch material transfer is possible using SAP standard functionality.
On my floor, the raw material i am consuming is batch managed and causing accounts error and negative stock due to wrong batch no. posting at the time of Co11.
due to requirement of our customers, our plant must run with proper tracking of each batch, means finish goods to raw material (specific batch) relation should be there in system.
If I maintain back flush function for BOM components in such a way that I always consume raw material from one batch (xxx) from production S-LOG. what i will do, I will refill that particular batch -xxx by transfer material from batch zzz (by batch to batch transfer) when needed to back flush.
Back flush will happen always from one batch which will reduce accounts error and negative stock generation.
Question is, will i be able to track and can built relation of raw material batch zzz and product FG?
if yes how? if no then what could be the solution for this problem.
Mr.Daar

Hi,
I think you're scenario is going little bit complex by doing transfer postings batch to batch this is very complex you know each time you have to do suppose if you have huge raw materials it leads to complexity any have for this point I can say is
while transferring the batches from XXX to ZZZ you give reference production order number in the material slip or document header text so that you can track the batches to which production order you have transferred.
in MSEG table you can trace the consumption of raw materials based on the Production order
and with 309 movement type you can trace the batch transfers I thing you have to develop a report for this.

Vendor batch and batch field on the inbound delivery

hi GUrus,
i have looked through most of the threads where the topic of vendor batch and batch on the inbound delviery has comeup. I'm specifically looking at a scneario where i would want to pass the on the batch number provided by the vendor on the IDOC to batch field on the inbound delivery. The reason for this is , i can look at the batch field in the confirmations tab of the PO, in the purchase order histroy tab of the PO, and also MMBE tcode. the material is also batch managed turned on in hte material master. But the issue is that even though i put the batch provided by vendor in the CHARG field on the ASN IDOC, it is still getting populated in the vendor batch field in the inbound delivery.
any ideas?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
Refer the note: 833668 - Creating batches in the inbound delivery using IDOC which explains the system design.

Batch to batch transfer of same material is not possible

We are doing batch to batch transfer of same material no. through MB1B in a plant which is depot. This is not happening and error message is coming "Batch to batch transfer of same material is not possible" msg no. 00398.
We tried the same transaction in mfg. plant and it is allowing the batch to batch transfer of same material no.
Full marks for earliest best solution.

Choubey Ji
Normally when you want to do stock transfer and change the batch of a material then we use M Type 309 via MB1B...in your case..you are doing this within a single plant...which i don't think is possible.
Correct me if i am wrong.

Batch Management- batch level

Hi,
Pls explain abt batch levels and its usage and
which batch level sap recommends and
which level most of the companies are using??
as well, how to check which batch level is using for a client??

Hi,
You can detail document about batch level in given path help documentation.
SPRO-IMG-Logistics general-Batch management-Specify Batch Level and Activate Status Management.
In this IMG activity, you specify the following:
The level at which batch numbers are unique
Whether batch status management is active in the client
The plants in which batch status management is active
The initial status of new batches
Batch level
Batch numbers can be unique at the following levels:
At plant level
At material level
At client level for a material
If you choose plant level, the batch number is unique in conjunction with the respective material and the plant. If you choose material level, the batch number is unique together with the material. At client level, the batch number is unique in the whole client.
To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to batch numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical. In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
Standard settings
In the standard delivery batches are uniquely defined at material level.
Activities
To change the batch level, proceed as follows:
1. Choose the level at which you want your batches to be unique.
2. Save the new settings and choose Back.
3. Choose Batch level -> Conversion.
4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.

UWL under From tab requestor's name missing,Instead WF-BATCH, WF-BATCH cmng

Hello All
We have developed the custom workflow for travel and qualification approval in ESS MSS.
In case of quality system when the request goes to approver, in his/her UWL under the From tab, WF-BATCH, WF-BATCH is getting displayed instead of the requestor's name.
In development system same workflow showed Workflow instead of requestor's name.
Please suggest the solution so that requestor's name gets displayed properly.

There are various things you can check
In the uwl.properties file there is a property
'hideSpecialProviderUserId'. This is set to true by default, and it
means that when the UWL can't match a backend id to a portal id in
the 'from' column, it displays the generic 'Workflow System'.
If you set this to false, it will display whatever userid value
it gets from the backend, whether it is recognized and matched to a
portal user or not.
if the task is defined as to be processed in background the user
will be WF-Batch. There is no other opportunity unless you define
to task not to be a background task. Hopefully this answer could hlep
you.
also check
This is how the task has been defined by the application. The task type
supports the return action (see the table in the Support information
"Supported Actions for this Item" - uwlReturnToTable is one of them),
but in the delivered customization from MSS this is not included.
You could add a reference to this action to whatever Item Types you wish
to have the button on that support the uwlReturnToTable action.

Change existing stock items from Non-Batch to Batch Management Method

Hi,
Any prerequisites before changing the existing stock items from Non-Batch to Batch Management method which have On hand stock qty? Please advise.
Thanks & Regards,
Priscilla

Hi
You can change the method only when, available Qty becomes zero.
OR
you can do one workaround :
Make Goods Issue of that Item and take value of stock in any GL,
and then change the method of that item, then make Goods Reciept by using that GL which was used in Goods Issue.

SLED error in LQUA table after batch to batch transfer posting -

Hi All,
I have done a batch to batch transfer posting in 309(same material - batch to batch).
At IM level the receiving batch charecteristics have been copied.
When i create a TO from the posting change number using LT05 and check the bin stock status or check LQUA table,the SLED of the receiving batch has the SLED of the issuing batch.
Problem is not with IM stock/WM stock but,only the batch characteristics are not getting copied at WM level.
Please suggest a solution to this issue.
Regards
Deepak

Hi All,
Stock of the material in IM and WM are as follows
IM sloc - - batch A - 50EA - SLED - 15/5/2010   WM - bin A01 - 50EA
IM sloc - - batch B - 50EA - SLED - 15/10/2010 - WM - bin A02 - 50EA
Scenario is I have done a batch to batch transfer posting of the same material for 20 EA from batch A to batch B in MB1B.
batch charecteristics of the both batches is
After I create a TO from the posting change number.
After the TO creation and confirmation IM stock is
IM sloc - - batch A - 30 EA - SLED - 15/5/2010
IM sloc - - batch B - 70 EA - SLED - 15/10/2010
WM - batch A - bin A01 - 30 EA - SLED - 15/5/2010
WM - batch B - bin A01 - 20 EA - SLED - 15/5/2010 (wrong SLED)
WM - batch B - bin A02 - 50EA - SLED   - 15/10/2010
Can someone suggest if there is any configuration settings or this is s standard system behaviour.

Batch to batch transfer (same material)

HI experts,
I have a scenario where i have to post the X qty from batch B ( GRN in april ) to batch A (Grn In mar) for same material.
I have consumed the material from full qty from Batch A in April and the material from batch B remained unutilized.
Now i have to consumed some more material in the month of March . Period is still open.
What is the solution as i tried batch to batch transfer using 309 but error appears "Deficit of BA :Unresticted material".
What is the alternate solution for this?
Regards

if batch B was created in April, then you cannot move its stock in March, as you did not have any stock of this batch in March.
Because of this fact, you cannot perform a transfer posting in one step.
You have to use a 2 step movement, e.g. 201 to consume the batch B to cost center in April, and a 202 to unconsume this quantity with batch A in MArch.

Transfer posting from batch to batch using 309 or 311 issue

Hi Experts,
Need your help, I'm facing the following issue, I'm trying to transfer posting from batch to other batch using 309,
Using MIGO
the material, plant, storage location are the same but the batch number are different, I didn't get any message and when I save, there's nothing is changed, I checked the material document and found that the destination batch is same as source batch.
Using MB1B
the material, plant, storage location are the same but when I entered the source batch, the batch number is copied to the destination batch number and I got message M7104 "stock to be removed from storage same as stock to be placed into the storage" and I can't change the destination batch number.
Please advise how can I solve this issue or if there's any alternative way to transfer from batch to other by one step.
Regards,
Mohamed Mansour.

You can well use 309 movement type in MIGO or MB1B and also you can well change the receiving batch number during the transaction..
MB1B
MIGO
I think you can able to change the receiving batch.
What the status of receiving batch shows in MIGO or MB1B ?
Also check you field selection for movement type 311
Go to OMBW, double click on 311, then double click on Transfer Posting
It should be as optional entry.
Then try again MB1B.
Regards
Dev

No manual entry of batch, if batch determination fails to pick batch in DO

Dear Experts,
I have a scenario, where I want system to stop users to pick batch manually in Delivery order creation (VL01N), if batch determination procedure fails to auto-pick batch due to any reason.
By standard configuration, is there any-way to cater this requirement or we need user-exit only?
PLease suggest.
Regards,
Praveen

Hi Praveen
The standard SAP allows you to change manually determined batch. When the batch is selected manually, the automatic determination has failed because the batch characteristics are not proper as per the condition set in VCH1. When you manually select the batch in the delivery, then the system would throw up a message saying Invalid batch (batch number) according to selection criteria in batch determination (Message no. VL215). This is a warning message. Try changing this to an error message in the user exit.
Thanks
