Inventory Management - Best Processes Documentation

Dear All,
We have recently implemented SAP in our organization. And we have mapped as such our process in sap. Now we want to know either the our processes regarding Inventory Management are best or not. So I want to get the complete documentation of SAP best processes in inventory management. I have gone through the SAP Best Practices Base line package. The Documentation in this is very limited regarding inventory management. Can any one guide where we can get the complete documentation regarding SAP best processes for inventory management.
Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards

Dear,
As you mentioned Implementation done in your organizations, If really comparison required by management - I suggest to go for a GAP analysis from any external firm. Inventory management is huge and based on real business requriements may be some best practices will not match client needs so accordingly changed or altered.
Check the link which have some best practices available @ http://help.sap.com/bp_hightechv1600/HighTech_Global/documentation/hightech2_hidden_EN_DE.htm

Analysis Process Designer and Inventory Management

In the How to guide for Inventory Management it mentions that you can you can intialise stock in the Snap shot Cube using the Analysis Process Designer (APD). Has anyone done this and if so can you explain how or outline some steps? Thanks

Hallo,
the APD does`nt be a useful tool for modeling a performant
data flow. A lot of SAP BW user think so.
The performance problems are given by the ddic intern table, using to uploading the extracted data into the apd used wa_table and structures.
To have the best performance on your scenario, please use the following scenario as possible.
Step 1.
upload the extracted data from the psa into a data layer
there you can reduce and harmonize the data by using a transactional ods
Step 2.
build a infoset that joins the data
Step 3.
build one query to reducing data and make two copies of ist
Step 4.
build a useful data mining model
Step 5.
upload the results of the data mining model into a transactional ods
Step 6.
link the uploaded data into a infoset ore write back into a standard ods
Step 7.
query the data
If you use this scenario you have a lot of benefits. Better performance, better quality of persistent data and actual and traininged data.
The recommend next step (if you want a alerting) is to build a reporting agent report - if you have usefull processes in the query.
There are a workshop for Data mining and APD, named BW380.
I hope I helped you.
Otherwise give me a message.

Inventory management process key values plz

Hi gurus,
can anyone help me with the process key values
in my update rules i have this for issues
process keys= 100,101,104,105,106,110
and for receipts 000,001,004,005,006,010
what do they mean i am using the standard update rules
its very urgent becoz i am getting the stock values wrong
thanks and regards

hi Neel,
check oss note 352344 - Process key + reversals in Inventory Management ?
Symptom
This note is a consulting note and describes the use of the process key (0PROCESSKEY) in Inventory Management (MSEG). It focusses on the way the system deals with reversed transactions for DataSources 2lis_40_s279 and 2lis_03_bf.
To be able to use theses DataSources, you ABSOLUTELY MUST activate the transaction key generation (process key, PROCESSKEY) using Transaction MCB_ (from the OLTP IMG for BW: SBIW) (standard, retail or consumption goods).
The following transaction keys are available
(PROCESSKEY/Appl. Component/Description):
000/MM        Misc. receipts
001/MM        Goods receipt / vendor
004/MM        Article transfer posting receipt
005/MM        Stock correction inventory +
006/MM        Stock correction other +
007/IS-R      Receipt value-only article (single article
              posting)
010/MM        Receipt from stock transfer
002/IS-R      Merchandise clearing receipt
003/IS-R      GR from DC
100/MM        Misc. issues
101/MM        Returns / Vendor
104/MM        Article transfer posting issue
105/MM        Stock correction inventory -
106/MM        Stock correction other -
107/IS-R      Issue value-only article (single article
              posting)
110/MM        Issue from stock transfer
102/IS-R      Merchandise clearing issue
103/IS-R      GI from DC
450/IS-R      Generic Article (not relevant)
Remark: Transaction keys 002/003, 102/103 break down the core keys 010/110 in more detail with respect to retail processes. They are only available in an R/3 Retail.
As you can see in the overview, the transaction keys can be divided according to receipts and issues in Inventory Management. Furthermore, the transaction keys are displayed according to reversed and regular transactions.
A regular receipt has a debit/credit indicator "S" (SHKZG, 0DCINDIC), whereas a regular issue has a debit/credit indicator "H".
For reverse transactions the opposite is true.
Transaction                            D/C ind.   D/C ind.
                                        S          H

0 Misc. receipts                        regular    reversed
1 Goods receipt / vendor               regular    reversed
2 Merchandise clearing receipt        regular    reversed
3 GR from DC                            regular    reversed

107 Issue value-only article          reversed   regular
110 Issue from stock transfer         reversed   regular
Note: You can also recognize a reversal for DataSource 2lis_03_bf by means of the entry 0STORNO = ´X´. The fields that are marked with X in the table are then transferred with negative +/- sign. This was not the case with DataSource 2LIS_40_S279!!! In the case of DataSource 2LIS_40_S279 more logic was required in the BW update rules to make sure that key figures were updated correctly.
Example:
In the delivered InfoCubes 0CP_IC_C1 (CP) and 0RT_C01 (Retail), for example in key "Stock correction +", transaction keys 5 and 6 were grouped together. Furthermore, distinction is to be made between the different stock types. Depending on which stock types you want to distinguish between in different key figures, you must use a corresponding condition (IF statement) in the update rules in the BW.
Example (pseudo source code):
Updating Routine "stock adjustment +" for 2lis_02_bfIF ( STOCKCAT is initial ) AND         "Evaluated stocks ( PROCESSKEY = 5 OR PROCESSKEY = 6 )._ RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT. RETURNCODE = 0.    "Updating Key figureELSE. RETURNCODE = 4.    "No Updating of KeyfigureENDIF.
The pseudo source code for 2LIS_40_S279 read as follows:
Updating Routine "stock adjustment +" for 2lis_40_s279IF ( STOCKCAT is initial ) AND         "Evaluated stocks ( PROCESSKEY = 5 OR PROCESSKEY = 6 ).    IF DCINDIC = 'S'.      RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT.    "regular    ELSE.      RESULT = -1 * TRANS_AMOUNT.    ENDIF.    RETURNCODE = 0.    "Updating Key figureELSE.     RETURNCODE = 4.    "No Updating of KeyfigureENDIF.
Here, the debit/credit indicator must be checked in accordance with the table above. Transactions 5 and 6 are receipts in Inventory Management. As the debit/credit indicator is set to "S", it is a regular transaction whose value(TRANS_AMOUNT) is assigned to the key figure. In the other case (debit/credit indicator = "H") it is a reversal, that is, the transaction should reverse a transaction that has already been updated. For this, the value is multiplied by -1 so that a corresponding decrease/reduction of this key figure is achieved during the update of the key figure in the InfoCube.
This logic is no longer required for the 2LIS_03_BF (see first pseudo source code), because the reversed quantity and values are automatically provided as negative with the help of the 0STORNO field.
Using this DataSource 2LIS_03_BF, it is for example possible to create a key figure such as "Reversed receipts", which is not a part of the Business Content delivered. The following pseudo source code of an update routine makes this clear:
Update routine "Reversed receipts"
IF ( PROCESSKEY = 1 ) AND   (STORNO = ´X` ) "Reverse     RESULT = -1 * TRANS_AMOUNT.     RETURNCODE = 0.ELSE.     RETURNCODE = 4.      "no update of key figure!ENDIF.
Note: For DataSource 2LIS_40_S279 the pseudo source code read as follows:
Update routine "Reversed receipts"
for 2LIS_40_S279IF ( PROCESSKEY = 1 ) AND   ( DCINDIC = H ) "Reverse     RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT.     RETURNCODE = 0.ELSE.   RETURNCODE = 4.      "no update of key figure!ENDIF.
To be able to understand the overall scheme more comprehensively, you should have a look at the update rules of the Standard Business Content for retail or consumption goods (for example InfoCubes 0RT_C01 or 0CP_IC_C1).

Inventory management configuration ?

hii
Can some body explain me about the configuration part for inventory management.
Like
Goods receipt
Goods issue
Transfer posting
Physical inventory
......etc
Explain me in short without any links ...
Thanks

There are almost an infinite number of ways to configure IM, depending on the business processes your client intends to implement.
Start with SAP Best practices config guide for Materials Management.

Customizing Inventory Manager 4.0 mobile application

Hi,
I need to make some customization on Inventory manager 4.0 mobile application. For this I need to know the following:
Do I need to customize the java source code of the application in order to adapt the mobile application to my business process, like for example: Add fields, Add actions, etc? or just extending java classes and do modification on the IM Agentry Application is enough to do the customization?
If I need to include a complete new screen on the mobile application, which is a complex customization. Will I need to ask for this java source code to the sale representative in order to make the customization?
This questions were raised on this post Integration SMP 3.0 and Inventory Manager 3.2 / 4.0 and as I also read Migrating from SAP IM 3.2 to SAP IM 4.0 I found out the java source code must be requested to SAP because on this version is not available to download from marketplace. But I really want to know if I need to do this or not, I'm not very clear about this. It make sense what Stephen Streeter wrote in one of his answers, I don't want to modify the base java classes... I just want add functionality /fields to what is already develop on IM 4.0, but on the other hand, If I want to add a field to MDO, maybe I will need to change the stepHandler class so... I guess that is why Jason Latko confirmed that I need those file... and therefore I need to request to SAP in order to get it and make the customization possible... But I'm not really sure... so at that point I got so confused that I realize I need to ask about this on another thread.
Please help me...
Best Regards,
MC

Hi guys,
I need to include two properties on Order Object for IM 4.0 app in order to make visible two additional fields on the order list screen. I have installed my development environment and import to eclipse the copy of the app project (all good). I saw that on Standard DataObject, both fields are included and with the active flag checked (so I guess the Steplet might read them without doing anything on the classes), but now I have to reference it on the object... but I dont know how were named those fields on the steplet class and I'm reading on the documentation I have and the newly properties name for the object must be the same as it was referenced on the class.... This means that I have to ask for the java classes in order to get the name and create the property with the correct name???
Or I must create a custom POJO Class in order to manipulate this fields on the mobile app???
Or Is there a list where I can see what is the name of those fields on the steplet class???

Q&A db for warehouse management and inventory management

Hello Everybody,
i read on the help.sap website that standard as well as industry specific versions of Q&A db are available. but the website doesnt say where. i searched a lot but the links dont lead to the actual Q&A db.
i would like to request you to kindly share the Q&A db for inventory management and warehouse management with me as i need it for preparing the AS IS documentation.(preferably automotive industry but if not then even standard Q&A db is fine).
thanks a lot.
sapman.

Now QADB will not help to map the clinets requirement. Instead of QADB get AS IS information form Coreusers... thats best practice now....

HU without inventory management and message L3778 in storage type 999

Hi experts,
Need suggestion on the process to add inventory of an HU with status 'HU without inventory Management'. This issue has occurred out of the below scenario:
1. our warehouse is HU & WM managed.
2. We have a transfer order for a delivery document requesting to pick up 100 cases of MAT1 which is assigned to HU1.
3. While confirming the transfer order user has confirmed difference for the full quantity of 100 because the SU/HU was not found in the bin.
4. The system has set the status of HU as 'HU without inventory Management'. The HU is empty.
5. system has moved the stock from the bin to difference storage type 999.
Now user has found the stock for this HU and he wants to post the stock back into the bin. system does not allow to move the stock back to bin using LT01 as we get error message 'L3 778'.
What will be the best practice to get the stock back into the bin and post the stock into the same old HU.
Is there a process wherein we can post this stock to another bin and repack into the old HU?
Thanks,
Harish

Thanks Manish on the hint. I was able to transfer stock to partner location and then bring back to original Storage type/Bin. Below steps was used to fixed the issue:
1. Initiate a transfer of stock from WM/HU Sloc where the IM stock resides into Sloc 9099. An outbound delivery is created during this process.
2. Create a transfer order with reference to delivery and pick the stock from 999 storage type.
3. Create a Pick HU using LH01 and assign the HU on the pallet to the transfer order.
4. Confirm the transfer order using LT12.
5. Perform PGI for the delivery.
6. Use HUMO to display the HU and then you can transfer the stock back to WM/HU location using the storage location transfer option available on the HUMO screen(EDIT à change HU posting à Storage location)
7. Perform Bin to bin transfer to move the SU from 921 storage type to putaway the HU/SU back to the destined Storage type/Bin.
Best Regards,
Harish

Project wise Inventory Management

Hello
My client is in construction business. Following is the existing business process he follows :
1. Material is procured from the vendor and receive in inventory and then o demand it is released from the inventory to site of the project. (this scenario occurs rarely)
2.Material is procured from the vendor and send directly to the site of the project.
Note : One Project can have more than 1 site.
Please let me know how to map the above process in best manner.
thanks
Tomas

Hi Tomes......
As I mentioned, you can issue the material through Goods Issue via only one document but as you want toi maintain it more that one site create a UDF called Location/Site and you may manage goods issue onr row per site.
Let say if you want to issue material under project XYZ have three sites A, B And C
And Qty as 10 Nos/Kgs on Site A with Project XYZ, 20 Nos/Kgs on Site B with Poject XYZ and 15 Nos/Kgs on site C with Project XYZ
So OpenGoods Issue document and select itms on first line and select site in UDF as A and you can find Project column also activate it through Form Setting, there you select XYZ and give qty as 10Nos/Kgs.
Second line and select site in UDF as B and you can find Project column also there you select XYZ and give qty as 20 Nos/Kgs
Third line and select site in UDF as C and you can find Project column also there you select XYZ and give qty as 15 Nos/Kgs....
I guess this way you can manage Inventory management Proejct with different site wise under one Goods Issue document. And same is applicable for all the marketing docs......

Rahul

Problems reloading Inventory Management

We have been struggling to reload our Material Movements cube (0IC_C03). We have been following the SAP documentation titled 'How to handle inventory management scenarios in BW'.
Our initial loads (Stock Opening Balance, Movements Init, Revaluations Init) have all been successful and validation looks good. The problem is that when the first delta UPDATE runs we end up having many negative inventory quantities appearing. We are not sure what we could be doing wrong.
Compression settings are as follows
1) Run stock opening balance (2LIS_03_BX)
2) Run statistical setup for 4/3 only for Revaluations and Movements (2LIS_03_BF, 2LIS_03_UM)
(Compress with Marker option NOT CHECKED)
3) Load Stock infoPackage 2LIS_03_BX with 'Opening stock balance checked ' (ie: not full update)
(Compress with marker option NOT CHECKED)
4) Run delta init for Movements
(Compress delta init with marker option CHECKED)
5) Run delta init for Revaluations
(Compress delta init with marker option CHECKED)
6) Setup job control in logistics cockpit
7) Run delta update for Movements
Compress delta with marker option NOT CHECKED
8) Run delta update for Revaluations
Compress delta with marker option NOT CHECKED
The issue seems to occur with steps 7 and 8. The initial time we do these steps we get zero records and everything looks good. Then the next day the same steps occur in our nightly process chain and then the data is bad with negative values.
Any ideas what we could be doing wrong?
Thanks!

Hello Patrick,
Whic values you are getting as negative, the non-cumulative key figures or the inflow and outflow key figures? If the inflow and outflow KFs are coming correctly, then problem is in BW side e.g. compression sequence. But in case inflow and outflow KFs itself are coming worngly with negative sign from R/3, then problem lies in R/3 side. In that case you can check the corrsponding data in tables MSEG and BSEG. Let me know in which part the problem lies and from there we can take it forward.

Praveen

Inventory Management 0IC_C03 customizations

Dear Experts,
I have a task in hand to implement Inventory Management in SAP BW 3.5. Now, this is the first time that we will be implementing anything related to Logistics and I havenu2019t done so earlier in my support projects. I have got 10 hrs of downtime.
I need to fetch the report for both Trading as of now.
The fields needed in the report by the customer are:
Plant
Plant Description
S. Loc.
S.Loc. Description
Opening Stock Qty,
Opening Stock Value,
Receipts against PO Qty,
        Value,
Receipt against STO Qty,
        Value,
Receipt against return SO Qty,
     Value,
All Other Receipts Qty,
      Value,
RevaluationValue,
Miro Differences,
Issue against SO Qty,
      Value,
Issue against STO Qty,
        Value,
All Other Issues Qty,
      Value,
Closing Stock Qty,
           Value,
Book Inv Qty,
Physical Inv Count.
I am planning to define these as Zkey-figures and write routines in update rules based on processing keys to capture each qty and value separately.
My questions are:
1) What are the fields from above that can be pulled from standard BI Content Reports (if possible, please specify which report)? OR fields (or combination of fields) that are already in the cube?
2) For every above field, customer has given standard movement types.
For ex: for Receipts against PO = Mov Types 101,105,123,162 (Doc Type IN/IM)
            for Receipt against STO = Mov Types 351, 352 (Doc Type UB)
But when brought in BI, all routines are based on processing keys (BW Transaction key). Where can I find mapping of each processing key to the corresponding movement type?
If you know which processing key can be used for above fields, please let me know.
3) What are the other fields that need to be considered in routines. If possible please specify field wise.
4) Should I extend the 0IC_C03 with these new custome KFs creating a new zcube or should I add only required fields in zcube.
If I follow the latter, will there be any impact on standard BF/UM runs as in If I load till PSA and from PSA I follow my customized update rules terminating into my customized cube?
Thanks friends.

BJ,
My questions are:
1) What are the fields from above that can be pulled from standard BI Content Reports (if possible, please specify which report)? OR fields (or combination of fields) that are already in the cube?
~ You will get fields from the Cube only.
2) For every above field, customer has given standard movement types.
For ex: for Receipts against PO = Mov Types 101,105,123,162 (Doc Type IN/IM)
for Receipt against STO = Mov Types 351, 352 (Doc Type UB)
~ Check this Table in Source system for BW Keys : TMCLVBW
But when brought in BI, all routines are based on processing keys (BW Transaction key). Where can I find mapping of each processing key to the corresponding movement type?
If you know which processing key can be used for above fields, please let me know.
Check this table
3) What are the other fields that need to be considered in routines. If possible please specify field wise.
That depends upon your requirement in the report or Check the standard Dcoument for Inv management in SDN search.
you will get lot of help.
4) Should I extend the 0IC_C03 with these new custome KFs creating a new zcube or should I add only required fields in zcube.
If I follow the latter, will there be any impact on standard BF/UM runs as in If I load till PSA and from PSA I follow my customized update rules terminating into my customized cube?
~Best Practice and even SAP Recommends Make a ZCUBE and then enhance or customize to fullfill your rek.
No impact follow IM steps for BW.
Make sure you keep these things in Mind:
There are 3 SAP delivered transactional data sources for stock management.
2LIS_03_BX : Always needed to carry the initialization of the stocks.
2LIS_03_BF : Initialize this in source if you need historical data else an empty init can be done for this to load only future delta records. If the Source system is new then no need to do an initialization.
2LIS_03_UM : Only needed if revaluations are carried out in Source. This data source is helpful if adjustment in material prices is done time to time otherwise it wonu2019t extract any data.
2. Check list for source system. Needs to be carried out before initialization of the above 3 data sources .
A.   Table TBE11 : Maintain Entry u2018NDIu2019 with text u2018New Dimension Integrationu2019 and activate the flag(Note 315880)
B.   Table TPS01 : Entry should be as below(Note 315880)
PROCS u2013 01010001
INTERFACE - SAMPLE_PROCESS_01010001
TEXT1 u2013 NDI Exits Active
C.   Table TPS31 : Entry should be as below(Note 315880)
PROCS u2013 01010001
APPLK - NDI
FUNCT u2013 NDI_SET_EXISTS_ACTIVE
D.   Tcode u2013   MCB_
In most cases you need to set the industry sector as u2018standardu2019. For more info please see Note 353042
E.    Tcode u2013 BF11
Set the indicator to active for the Business warehouse application entry. This entry may needs to be transported to the production system. (Note 315880)
3. After running the setup data, check the data for the fields BWVORG, BWAPPLNM, MENGE. If no data available in these fields then some setting mentioned in the above checklist are missing in R/3. Correct the issue and rerun the setup data.
4. Data staging with DSO for BX extractor is not allowed. Data should directly load from extractor to Cube only once. Choose the extraction mode as u2018Initial Non-cumulative for Non-cumulative valuesu2019 in the DTP.
5. DSO is possible for BF. If you are creating a standard DSO then choose the fields MJAHR,BWCOUNTER,MBLNR,ZEILE as key fields. Some of these fields wonu2019t be available in the standard data source but the data source can be enhanced using LO Cockpit (LBWE) to add these fields. In addition to these other fields depending upon the DSO structure is also possible.
Note 417703 gives more info on this.
6. Point-5 is valid for UM also. The Key fields could be a combination of MJAHR,MBLNR,ZEILE,BUKRS fields. Note 581778
7. Data load to the cube should follow the below process
A.      Load the BX data. Compress the request with stock marker(uncheck the marker option).
B.      Load the BF and UM init data. Compress the loads without the stock maker(Check the marker option).
C.      The future delta loads from BF and UM should be compressed with Stock marker(uncheck the marker option).
8. If in future the cube needs to be deleted due to some issues then the load process should also be carried out as above. (only init of BF and UM should be loaded first and then the deltas should be processed)
9. To check the data consistency of a Non cumulative cube the standard program SAP_REFPOINT_COMPLETE can be used. To check the compression status of the cube the table RSDCUBE can be refered. Before the compression of BX request, the u2018REFUPDATEu2019 field should be blank and after the compression the value should become u2018Xu2019. Check Note 643687 for more info.
10. After BX data load to cube the data wonu2019t be visible by LISTCUBE. Only after compression the data can be seen by running a query on the Non cumulative cube.

Inventory management senerios difference

Hi expert,
I am refering to the comman documents available for implementing inventory, as i am new to the inverntory, and have to propose the fesibility of implementing the inventory part,
i dont have the functional deep knowlege about the inventory,
In the document it says about the non cummulative senerio and the snap shot with cummulative,
i am not able to catch up with the terms used in explaining the use of senerious,
So can any one tell me,
1) Dose it depend on the implemantation process been handled by the functional consultant for customising the inventory in the ECC system for opting for the senerio's of implementing inventory management on BW side, ?
or it is entirly dependent on the performance base and the advantages and disadvantages ?
2) As it is a fresh implementation and we have lack of resources also, i am the only one, i want to avoid all the complex situatuion which could consume time, basically the coding part, etc,
I want to make it as simple as possible with following the neccessary steps to be taken as mentioned in documents,
So can anyone sujjest on that too ?
Thanks

hi
1.
Processes in the area of Inventory Management address the recording and tracking of materials on a quantity and value basis. This includes planning, entry, and documentation of stock movements such as goods receipts, goods issues, physical stock transfers, and transfer postings as well as the performance of physical inventory (stocktaking).
Warehouse Management Processes cover warehouse-internal movements and storage of materials.
2.
SAP Warehouse Management allows you to manage your material flow, using advanced putaway and picking strategies. In the standard system, these strategies for putaway include random putaway (next empty bin), bulk storage, fixed bin, or addition to stock. The picking strategies include standard strategies first-in first-out (FIFO), last-in first-out (LIFO), picking by shelf life expiration date (SLED), or partial quantities first. For customer-specific strategies, solutions can be self-defined in user exits.
3.
While Inventory Management manages the stocks by quantity and value, the Warehouse Management component reflects the special structure of a warehouse, and monitors the allocation of the storage bins and any transfer transactions in the warehouse.
