Inventory InfoObject Required.

Hi All,
I am in requirement for infoobject for "General Item Category Group" which comes under Sales Org 2 tab of material master.
Do we have One which is given by SAP or we have to create our one.
Thanks,
sachin k

Hi
This is useful but I need a more rigid approach to the solution. We have tried this approach in the past and it hasn't been that effective.
We have many users and it is key that they select CONTRACT type in the filter area and then restrict by the contract type that they are involved with. The latter has been dealt with authorizations on the contract type.
It's just the former that we have problems with. If anyone could help on how we can force an InfoObject (CONTRACT) into the Filter area or give our Key Users an error message if they try to save a query without CONTRACT being in the Filter area, of the BEx Query Designer, it would be a great help.

How to Make Field/InfoObject Required Entry/Mandatory in DataSel of IPackag

Hi All,
How to make InfoObject or field as required/Mandatory Entry in the Data Selection TAB of InfoPackage.(Flat File Extraction)
Actually I have already Checked Selection Option of my required fields in DataSource/Transfer Structure TAB but unable to make mandatory
Rgds,
C.V.

Hi,
you can do that using an ABAP program in teh infopackage. You should write code to trigger an exception and throw a message if the selection is not given.
If it is possible to give selection by calulating a date like thing you can automate with ABAP code once again and can use it in teh process chain.

Standard Asset report - INVNR (Inventory field) requirred

Hi Guys
Is it possible to get inventory field (INVNR) in standard asset reports. I dont want to use dynamic selection in any standard report.

Bala,
Yes, it is very much possible. Create a new sort version in OAVI and select the filed INVNR from the talbe ANLAV.Using this version while you execute the report and call in this field from the change layout.

Requirements calculation

How do is set-up the Available Inventory in SAP? the formula is Available Inventory = On Hold + Released u2013 Allocated
How does SAP calculate the MRP requirement? Can it include Open Purchase Orders & Safety Stock?
Formula should be like this:
MRP Requirement = Avail Inventory - BOM Required Qty u2013 Open PO + Safety Stock Requirement

Invetory Ageing Report

Hi Experts:
My Inventory ageing Requirement is like this way
 When the user executes the Report in the selection screen
 Two dates will be 12-06-1995(This will be constant)
 12-02-2006 (Entering Date)
Now based on BATCH it has to calculate the Age of Material.
If AGE displays in Months also no Problem.Here BATCH is a charterstic Infoobject.
Because the Batch Format will be Like this way 200407. (Year and Month)
Here 200407: 2000 is year and 07 is Month (for your Clarification)
LOGIC to Implement
Entering DATE - Batch = AGE of the Material.
Report has to Generate like this manner.
 AGE in Months or DAYS
Plant | Material|Rate | 0-90 | 91-120 | 121-180 | 180-|
If the Material age is 45 days or Months it has to Sit in 0-90 days
If the Material age is 95 days or Months it has to sit in 91-120 days Etc..
If we have to Write any User Exit means Please Tell Which User Exit I have to Use
Cheers

Dear Purushottham,
Can you give the format of Output , I dont think the output that you have mentioned doesnt give a proper idea...do u require all in Columns?? if yes..what would be the value that is sitting in the 0 -90 column ??
Regarding your age -- Batch is a Charater Value and you are trying to implement the age with Enter date - Batch ( and this is again YYYYMM ), so you should always get this in days...as your bucket indicates..and what is the max bucket you want ...and one thing ..is there is no need for two dates..let the user enter only one date..and from that date it has give the age of material.Its better you handle this with months as your batch doesnot give any date ..
Give us the format in which you want to see O/P
Hope it helps..
Thanks,

Price difference in MAP material

Hi,
I am taking a material which is managed Batch wise and split valuation is active, while valuation type is moving average price.
when doing the goods issue for the material, it is hitting the entry in Price difference account..
But when I am reversing the same GI document, it does not hit the Price Difference account. It loads the Price difference on inventory.
but requirement is that, during reversal of goods issue it should post the PRD account by whatever amount was posted in PRD account during Goods Issue.
Please help me out, how to solve this. By any means, can we post the entry in PRD when material is managed by MAP.
Thanks,
Varun

Hi,
Material A is batch managed with split valuation active. In the material master valuation type MAP is maintained.
When doing the Good Receipt of this material with quantity 1, with 475 $, MAP changes to 475$ for newly generated batch valuation.
When doing the Goods Issue at 300$ with quantity 1, inventory account is credited by 300$, and 175$ is debited to Gain/loss account.
When reversing this GI document, material account is debited by 475$. But my requirement is that, it should debit material account by 300$ only and 175$ should be credited to Gain/loss account.
Hope, now I am able to clear my requirement.
Thanks,
Varun

Creating a Trigger and some Database Design

Here is the scenario, we have the following tables
Orders, OrderDetails, Products, ProductsToInventory, Inventory, and InventoryDetails
Orders is where the orders are saved and their details are in OrderDetails (orderdetails has a column called Type and that type can either be a product, inventory, shipping, fee, so that we can distinguish what each one is in the order)
Products are the products we sell and ProductsToInventory refers each product to the inventory items required for it.
Inventory lists the the name, size, and weight of the item
then InventoryDetails stores the cost, original quantity received, and the current quantity (since the company receives different quantities of the same product at different pricing all the time) (I would appreciate all the comments on this, this is
the best way I thought of doing this but if you have another way i'd appreciate it)
So that's the design, now we created a trigger that basically does this...
When an order is created and a PRODUCT is inserted into the the orderdetails, we will, using trigger, run the following query to insert the INVENTORY into the orderdetails
   INSERT INTO OrderDetails (...., OrderDetailPrice)
   SELECT ..., OrderDetailPrice?
FROM inserted i INNER JOIN ProductToInventories pt
    ON i.productid = pt.id
    INNER JOIN Inventories inv
    ON pt.InventoryID = inv.InventoryID
    LEFT JOIN InventoryDetails idet
    ON inv.InventoryID = idet.InventoryDetailInventoryID
    WHERE OrderDetailType = "PRODUCT"
This works perfectly fine, however... for the price, we don't know what to do here, since the price is not in the inventory, the price is under the inventorydetails and we will have to look up to that table to see which one has quantity > the quantity
needed here and then grab the price for that and then we need to update the quantity on that as well.

Here is the scenario, we have the following tables
Orders, OrderDetails, Products, ProductsToInventory, Inventory, and InventoryDetails
Orders is where .....
Good day TheSQLNewb,
I did not read more than I quote above... This is a starting of a nice story :-) but in the forum and in DBA's life we prefer to get DDL+DML instead of stories.
Please post queries to create the relevant tables (this is DDL by the way), and queries to insert some sample data (DML). with this information we will be able to reproduce the tables in our server and work on them.
Thanks :-)

Text Remarks ofLength greater than 60

Hi Everyone,
I have a requirement where I need to pull a field called Remarks from ECC System and it is a Long Text. As , it is , Long Text will not be stored in a Table. So , there is a R/3 Function Module using which we can get the data for Remarks.
This Remarks is for SO ITEM.
Now, i plan to somehow build a Genric Extractor for this Remarks and get into BI.
But BI InfoObject has only 60 as the maximum length. So how is this going to be possible.
Can anyone throw some Light on Extracting Long Tests from ECC as well as The Modeling Part. I am new to this scenario.
Regards,
Samir

Hi Samir,
As this field Remark is for SO Item, for the extraction part you can explore the option for enhancing the Standard LO extractor , for the new field. in the CMOD code you can call the function module and populate the field.
For the length greater than 60 issue. The DS and PSA will allow you to store value for records greater than 60. will storing in the data target you will have to split the field in the different infoobject of length 60 each. You'll have to get a confirmation on the maximum length so as to anticipate the number of infoobjects required. Spliititng will be done at the transformation level. using simple ABAP code of string operation 0(60) & 61(60).
For display in report their are option avaiable in BSP code. Please check the Article below for more details:

Hope this helps.

Material type & material group

Dear All,
what is the different between material type & material group

Hi,
Material type:
Materials with the same basic attributes are grouped together and assigned to a material type. This allows you to manage different materials in a uniform manner in accordance with your company's requirements
The material type identifies the characteristics of a material that are important with regard to Accounting and Inventory Management. A material is assigned a type when you create the material master record.
"Raw materials" and "finished products" are examples of material types. In the standard MM module, the material type for the former (ROH) denotes an externally procured (bought-in) material, whereas the material type for the latter (FERT) indicates that the relevant material is produced in-house.
Material type you choose determines:
u2022     Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose, for example, as a configurable material or process material
u2022     Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally
u2022     The number range from which the material number is taken
u2022     Which screens appear and in what sequence
u2022     Which departmental data you may enter
u2022     What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured in-house or procured externally, or both
Together with the plant, the material type determines the material's inventory management requirement; that is:
u2022     Whether changes in quantity are updated in the material master record
u2022     Whether changes in value are also updated in the stock accounts in financial accounting
In addition, the accounts affected by a material entering or leaving the warehouse depend on the material type.
Material Group:
    Key that you use to group together several materials or services with the same attributes, and to assign them to a particular material group.
    You can use material groups to:
u2022     Restrict the scope of analyses
u2022     Search specifically for material master records via search helps
It can be assigned in material master in Basic Data1 (Client level) and Purchasing (Pur org level) views.
Regards.

Inspection Lot Created but not shown in QE72, and cannot input result or UD

Hi Exports,
I have Inspection Lot Created by 04-production goods receive, but not shown in QE72, and cannot input result or UD
Inspection Lot status: CRTD CHCR SPRQ,
in Business Process of inspection lot showing:
*Cancel inspection lot
Assign RMA proc. to insp. lot
Assign notification to lot RMA
Batch log indicator required
Certificate missing
Change inspection lot
Change planned lot quantity
Choose task list for insp. lot
Confirm Receipt of Certificate
Create part. lot for insp. lot
Flag cancellation
Inventory posting required
Lock
Lot for process documentation
Lot reset allowed
What is going wrong?
BTW, the sampling procedure in Inspection Plan is a read-only field, but empty inside.
Daniel

Dear in your case there is no Inspection plan was attached to the lot so attach the plan and make lot status to REL then only you can do Results Recording.
Inspection plan gets auto assigned to availble inspection plan on respective date if you enabled the inspction with tasklist and automatic assignment boxes in relevant inspection types in MM QM view for this Inspction plant should be made avaialble in stsyem before any lot created which can be created QP01.
If it is not getting assiged automatically then you can assign it manually by QA02 here go to inspection specification tab click on Task list assignment the go to sample tab and click on sample and SAVE Inspection plan will be attached to inspection plan.
Once inspection plan is the lot status you can see REL before assignment of a plant it would be CRTD.

Attributes of Material type.

Dear All,
What is the purpose of attributing of Material types ???

Hi somasundaram,
Material Type
Materials with the same basic attributes are grouped together and assigned to a material type.
This allows you to manage different materials in a uniform manner in accordance with your
company's requirements. Examples of material types are given in the graphic below.
Features:
When you create a material master record, the material type you choose determines:
Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose, for example, as a configurable
material or process material
Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally
The number range from which the material number is taken
Which screens appear and in what sequence
Which departmental data you may enter
What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured in-house or
procured externally, or both
Together with the plant, the material type determines the material's inventory management
requirement; that is:
Whether changes in quantity are updated in the material master record
Whether changes in value are also updated in the stock accounts in financial accounting
In addition, the accounts affected by a material entering or leaving the warehouse depend on the material type.

Installation of BI Content cube

Hi,
We are going for a fresh BI implementation. Nothing is installed as of now. When I am trying to install one of the cubes with the grouping option 'in data flow before and after' its giving error for all the infobojects saying that they are not available in active version.
My impression was that if I choose the goruping opetion as mentioned above it should automatically install and activate the required infoobjects as well? Is this not correct? If not then how should I go about it please advise.
BR,
SSC

Hi,
Use grouping option as "necessary objects".
if u select in dataflow before then it has to activate so many objects.
So the system can't activate all the objects at a time.
Try to activate all the Infoobjects required for the cube first,
then try activating cube, then datasources and transformations..

MRP based planning

hi guys,
what is MRP based planning and why it is used?Under what conditions do we go for MRP based plannig for procurement of materials?

I will suggest you to read the SAP help on MRP first.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/f4/7d3f9344af11d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Anyway i am trying to explainn you this functionality:
The Concept Of MRP in SAP
MRP in brief :
MRP is the planning tool in SAP which will look at all aspects of a material and is highly based upon the master data of the material. MRP looks at current inventory, current requirements, open purchase req/orders and so on. So if a material is required to satisfy a sales order and there is no inventory, MRP will create a planned order if the item is to be produced in house. This planned order can then be converted to a production order by the master scheduler. If the item is to be procured, then MRP will create a purchase req which the Buyer will convert to a purchase order. This is just one scenario, the system is highly configurable and will do pretty much whatever you tell based on config and master data.
Consumption based planning
- Reorder planning
- Forecast based planning
- Time phased planning
Details of re-order planning
Our motive is to maintain optimum stock level of all the material included in the resource planning. so in this user or system sets a particular quantity of stock as reorder point . Whenever stock quantity fall below this point(reorder point) mrp comes into action and generates procurement proposals according to the settings done in implementation guide
MRP run procedure
1. Create requirement or demand in MD61
2. MRP run by MD02 for a single material
3. See the result in stock requirement list in MD04.
MRP run we can carry out by
1. MD02 - single item multi level
2 .MD03 - single item single level
3 .MD01 - Total planning
4. MD04 Check MRP
5. MD05 MRP lists
