Inventory Management: Blocked stock coming up in OnHand

Hello Experts -
We've implemented 2LIS_03_BF for our inventory management reports.
However, the OnHand quantity is also picking up Blocked quantity. I used the same code as given by SAP.
For a material, the OnHand quantity is 13 in our reports when there's nothing under Unrestricted in MMBE. But there are 13 under Blocked.
I looked at the code and the way the code is, it would pick up the Blocked quantity also.
How do I resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Syed

Hi,
Which key figure are you using to get Stock on Hand?
To get stock on hand we have to use 0TOTALSTCK - Quantity Total Stock and 0BLOCKEDSTK is for blocked stock
These 2 are non-cumulative key figure.In update rules logic will be differentiated based on Stock type and stock category. For Blocked stock , stock type should be 'D' and stock category NA 'KR'.
Please check update rules of BF.
hope it helps...
regards,
Raju

Inventory Management: Valuated Stock Value

Hello Experts -
We're using inventory management. We're just bringing in 2lis_03_bf which is the material movements and the standard price datasource.
The plant valuated stock quantity and the valuated stock value are fine. The SLOC valuated stock quantity is fine. We're using the non-cumulative key figures for the valuated stock quantity and the valuated stock value. The SLOC valuated stock value isn't correct. So I just created a calculated key figure where I'm multiplying the quantity with the standard price.
This works fine but when I look at the plant level and use this CKF, the aggregation threw me off. So I changed the aggregation on CKF at the Bex level.
This works fine in dev and qa where I don't have too much of data. But as soon as I'm in in production, the query times out and gives me an error saying I reached the buffer limit.
I was thinking of calculating the valuated stock value at the ETL layer but now I'm thinking that if I do that and the price of a material changes, I'll again have the same problem. I can't re-load every time a material price changes.
Can someone please help me with this scenario?
Thanks!

do not offer points, it is against the rules

Hi Syed,
Deriving values by multipling with price also not correct. results will not match with R/3.
Value Calculation
In principle, values are updated with Plant, Material, and Stock Category only. Quantities are updated with these characteristics, as well as with Storage Location, Batch Number, and Stock Characteristic
Check SAP Note 589024: Evaluations in BW with the Characteristics Storage Location and Stck Char.).
Hope it Helps

Inventory Management - QM Stock

Hi Gurus
Have Few clarifications:-
1) Doing the physical inventory for QM stock is advisable /mandatory (common business Impact)? if not explanation please...
2) Generally Physical Inventory document does contain the single line .....how to accomadate in the same report if any withdrawls been made by lot wise.
Appreciated your advise

Hello RG,
Generally we carry out physical inventory for auditing purposes. Also with help of physical inventory we can track balance in goods issue and goods reciept in am particular storage location / (storage type (in WM mamanged applications))
It is recommended that physical inventory is carried out for unrestricted stock, because quality inspection stock can only be issued for sampling. We cannot issue quality inspection stock directly , indeed it needs to be first transfered to unrestricted stock for godds issue.
General process hwich we follow for physical inventory is we create physical inventory document and then we do physical inventory count and then post the diffrences if any. (Recountingg is also applicable if differences are considerable)
Now on point No. 2
We can use posting block indicator while creating physical inventory document, which will restrict goods movement during physical inventory process.
Posting block indicator is located in the HEADER of MI01 T-Code.
The other method to carry out physical inventory is by FREEZE BOOK INVENTORY.
With this goods movement are allowed during physical inventory process, but your book inventory (SAP) will not change.

Inventory Management : Total stock turnover

Hello,
Can anyone tell me the logic for calculating Total Stock turnover & the Average quantity of total stock in an Inventory Management scenario.
Thanks & Regards
Indraneel

Hi
1. Warehouse Inventory Turnover of Total Stock Specifies how often average total stock has been consumed. (Total consumption quantity / Total stock- average quantity)
2. Average Total Stock Warehouse Inventory Turnover Specifies how often average total stock has been consumed based upon the average total usage. (Average total consumption quantity / Total stock u2013 average quantity)
refer this if u still have queries

Inventory management opening stock querry

Hi,
In the material movement report, it needs Opening stock, closing stock and the End Value.
Can you please guide how I could Calculate.
Though I calculate it by valuated stock and -1 day interval, but not getting proper value.
Iz that necessery to append the field LABST(opening stock) and LBKUM (end Value),
then remodeling the inventory cube 0ic_c03.
So what will be the cmod include progame for that?
regards,
Balaram

HI balaram,
for enhancing the datasource refer the below How to - doc
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0eade6c-692a-2c10-ac86-80f6b2157791?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
I have a note from the forums on the opening and Closing balance , may be you can give a try
0VALSTCKQTY gives Closing Balance.
0VALSTCKQTY + Issues - Receipts = Opening Balance

Inventory Management _Total Stock is not showing

Dear Expert,
This is new Inventory development I have extracted the data from BX to 0CI_C03 and compressed the request without No marker check,
And then loaded the BF with Initialization (without data transfer) and updated request with No marker check,
I could find out the Receipt quantity values and issue quantity as 0(very less in Dev), Problem here-
Total stock showing blank no values.
Please suggest
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,

Hi Kavitha,
Please review the document Re-initialization of the Material Stocks/Movements cube (0IC_C03) with 2LIS_03_BF, 2LIS_03_BX and 2LIS_03_UM in BW 7.x. It contains a step-by-step guide incl. useful explanation and background information.

Inventory Management, process stock in Quality.

Hi,
I am working in WM making the inventory process however I receipt an error when I trying to execute the LI20. The transaction gives this error:
LI20: No destination storage bin to be found in storage type 999
This error appear when there are a material in quality stock. After release the sock by QA11, it is possible to make the movement to storage type 999. My question is if is it possible to make the inventory for stock in quality. I think it is not possible to move the stock when it is in Quality.
Thank you and best regards.

Hi,
Thank you for the replay.
I have already created the interim storage type 999, In fact the process works correctly after make the usage decision by QA11. My question is if it is possible make movements in WM for inventory like this when one of the materials in the storage type is in quality stock. Always give this error.
Thank you and best regards.

Manage stock qty. in Storage bin for Inventory management

HI all,
We are implemented Inventory Management (display stock of material for storage location).
I want to know is there any method in Inventory Managment to Manage stock of specific material in bin also.
Means User exactly should know the stock of specific material is located in Storage Bin.
Please suggest me the hole process or any customization
Regards,
Vraj

Hi V raj,
I don't know whether i understood your question well. But i will answer in the way i understood.
To serve your requirement you need to have a Warehouse management, means to have a smooth warehouse bin wise storage.
But some companies are not willing to implement WM and they are finding a way with batch classification. They maintain batches for material and storage bin are maintain in a batch classification. So you can view it in MMBE also by going into the batch classification of the relevant batch.
And if you want to have a detail report you can develop a simple report or a query to retrieve batch classification data.
For batch classification activation:
1. Material must maintain "Batch management" tick in Purchasing and storage plant data views
2. Create a seperate class for this using CL02
3 Create batch characteristic using CT04 (this is to maintain Storage Bin)
4. Add classification view to each material and the relevant batch class.
5. When you are doing the GR use "Batch" tab and "Classification" button to maintain relevant Storage bin data. (To update mass scale you can create a "Z" report getting help of a developer in your company)
6. Now each batch you are maintained your storage bin view it trough MMBE (But only one batch classification) or in-house developed report ("Z") program
Thanks & BR

Blocked Stock Sub-Categories

Is there a way to be able to view and manage blocked stock into sub-categories. We have material blocked for several reasons and would like to be able to view different categories of that stock type?

There are no subcategories to a stock type.
And you will not be able to use MMBE if you develope any workaround. and if you develope a workaround, then you have to develope a new MMBE as well to fit to your developement.
Classification can only work if you use batch management.
BMBC cockpit can then be used to see stocks according to classification.

Inventory management: posting block : material master field

Hi,
In het material master you have a field Physical Inventory Blocking Indicator, but when I create a counting document (MI01) with posting block. The field in the material master is still blank. How can this happen?
Best regards,
Eric.

Hi Eric,
I guess there is some inconsistency in your system,
Please refer to the SAP Note 355939 & 192571 and you might be able to fix the bug..
Note 355939
Summary
Symptom
This note is only of importance for you if you execute physical inventory functions using the R/3 System. The inconsistencies can usually be adequately eliminated using Note 192571. This note is only intended for customers who did not discover the inconsistency in the first period of the new fiscal year and who now have problems with the physical inventory indicators.
Additional key words
RMMMPERI, MMPV, physical inventory, PIINKON, MARD-KZILL, MARD-SPERR
Cause and prerequisites
See Note 192571.
Solution
To eliminate the inconsistencies, carry out the following steps in the corresponding sequence:
1. Implement the corrections from Note 192571
2. Also implement the attached correction instructions
3. Start program ZREPPI_FLAGS (from Note 192571)
4. Start program ZINVUT30 (from Note 67072)
Source code corrections
Note 192571
Summary
Symptom
Preliminary note:
This note only applies to you if you execute physical inventory functions in the R/3 System.
In the log of the period closing program running during the fiscal year change, the number of the records closed does not correspond to the actual number of records in the corresponding stock table on the database.
As a result, the physical inventory indicators were not moved from the current fiscal year to the previous year in the records that are not closed. This means that materials, for which a physical inventory was carried out in the previous year, are dealt with by the system as if a physical inventory has already been carried out in the current year.
This problem can affect materials created before the upgrade to Release 4.5.
Additional key words
RMMMPERI, MMPV, inventory, PIINKON, MARD-KZILL, MARD-SPERR
Cause and prerequisites
The problem is caused by a program error.
Solution
If you have not yet carried out the fiscal year change (for example, if you have a fiscal year variant with non-calendar fiscal year), the attached correction can correct the error.
If you do not yet use Release 4.5B with at least Hot Package 09, in the four following form routines you must implement the deletion/insertion sequence listed in the attachment only once. Do not implement them twice each time as described in the "Corrections" section.
- Form MARD_UPDATE_JW_DB2DB4
- Form MCHB_UPDATE_JW_DB2DB4
- Form MSKA_UPDATE_JW_DB2DB4
- Form MSKU_UPDATE_JW_DB2DB4
Caution: Implement the corrections WITHOUT comment lines or added comments !!!
Comments between EXEC SQL and ENDEXEC can lead to the 'DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR' at the fiscal year change.
If you carried out the fiscal year change in Release 4.5 or 4.6A and use R/3 Physical Inventory Management, you can, after implementing the attached correction in your system, repair the affected records as follows:
Run correction report ZREPPI_FLAGS.
After the execution of report ZREPPI_FLAGS, you should implement report ZINVUT30 mentioned in Note 67072 in your system and execute the report for those materials for which a physical inventory has already been executed in the current fiscal year.
If you recognize the inconsistency only in a later period, also refer to Note 355939.
Trust this helps

Stock Valuation - Inventory Management Cube

Dear Sap Gurus,
We have implemented the Inventory Management Cube in BW.
Quantities are correct, but we have difference on the stock valuation.
For some material stock value are correct, for some other they are not correct.
A saw a lot of OSS notes and how to on this subject, I am trying to solve this issue using these documents, but based on your experience could you explain me how you solved this issue ????
Thanks,

Hi
Did you follow the correct steps?
Initialisation of BX data in the first step.(Loading of Opening Stock)
Then The request in which the opening stock was loaded must always be
compressed with a marker update
Init load of BF And UM in the second step
The request in which the historical material documents were contained
must always be compressed without a marker update and
Successive delta uploads must always be compressed with marker
updates
Check this whether you have done this or not.
Because of missing the steps here also would give you wrong values,
Regards
Ram

Consignment Stock for Inventory Management

Posting as a new thread...
I have installed and loaded the Inventory Management Cube 0IC_03 in our development and quality systems. During testing we have found just one problem with Consignment Stock. The Stock Initialization (2LIS_03_BX) does not bring in an initial quantity (BWMNG) for any material flagged as a Consignment Stock (Stock Category = K, field BSTTYP).
My question - is there a good reason for this or is this a problem? It causes a problem with reporting, because balances are now off. Do I need to change how reporting is done for Consignment?
It seems to me that the BX extractor should be picking up the initial balance. I am trying to debug the code, but am getting a headache!
Any help would be appreciated!
Yes, I have reviewed the "How To..." documentation, but don't see anything regarding consignment stock.
We are at BW 3.0b Support Pack 25.
Lisa.

Thanks, Ken. I don't know that this note actually helped me, but I did another review of OSS notes. We have applied 3 of them (726485, 756151, 762219) and our consignment issue has been resolved.
Thanks for pointing me back in the right direction!

Inventory Management: Stock reservation

Hi Experts,
Your expertise in MM is greatly appreciated.
Scenario: Stock reservation
We have to reserve a portion of inventory for CRM opportunities that might turn into sales orders. If we have 200EA in Unrestricted, 80EA is supposed to be reserved for CRM opportunities and other sales orders cannot use these stock. If the CRM opportunities do not turn into sales orders by the 15th of the month, we release the 80EA on 15th so they can be allocated to other sales orders.
These 80EA might be physically created already or they can be just for information telling the sales team that we have 80 EA being created. The main idea is that they are reserved for CRM opportunities only and they should not be allocated to other sales order during SO creation, rescheduling, backorder process before the 15th of the month.
Is there a way that we can do this in SAP? We only have MM and SD implemented in this phase. I looked at options, but please feel free to correct them if them seem to not be possible for this scenario.
Created a Reservation document with movement type 522 for the 80EA. This decreased the total Unrestricted (200-80= 120). During SO creation, the 80EA reserved is not getting allocated in the orders. However, when I run rescheduling, the 80EA are getting allocated for SO with delivery dates before the 15th of the month. The aim is to have them ‘reserved’ until the 15th of the month.
I created a transfer posting (MIGO) from Unrestricted to Blocked using movement type 344. The 80EA were turned into blocked stock in MMBE and this decreased the total unrestricted. The blocked stock were not allocated in the SO, rescheduling, and backorder processing. To release the stock back to unrestricted by the 15th, I use movement type 343 in MB1B. Would there be a way to automatically create the transfer posting every time we have to reserve inventory for CRM and also automatically release them back to unrestricted every 15th of the month?
Thank you!

you could write an ABAP that calls the BAPI BAPI_GOODSMOVEMENT_CREATE
and could schedule this ABAP to run on the 15th

Posting block Question in How to handle inventory management scenarios

Hi all - I have a question in document
<b>"How to...Handle Inventory Management Scenarios in BW"</b>
can anyone please tell me what a posting block is in this document...
also I did not understood what a Validity table is?
thanks,
Sabrina.

Hi Sabrina!
A 'posting block' period is something that now you are facing in inventory management, but you have to consider it in ALL logistic cockpit flows (what you can see in LBWE).
This requirement can be easily explained in this way: as you know, to fill a setup table you have to activate the extract structure of the datasource for which you want to run the setup job (otherwise the system says that no active extract structure exists, do you remember ?); but, by doing so with the posting operations open (in other words, users can create new document or change the existing ones), you run the risk that these records are automatically included in the extraction queue (or in SM13 if you are using unserialized method) AND also collected in setup table ! And you will have the same records with the initial load (from setup table) and then the same from delta load (from the queue): a nice data duplication.
To avoid this situation, a "posting block" (or a "free-posting period" or a "downtime") is requested. No one can post new document during your setup job...
Hope now is clearer...
Bye,
Roberto
