Item Category - Serial number status Link

Experts,
What is the link between item category and serial number status in sales document. When I create an outbound delivery for one item category, the serial number in outbound delivery becomes ESTO to ECUS. For another item category it becomes ESTO to ECUS ESTO. How is it maintained.
I want to change the transfer status from ESTO to ECUS instead of ECUS ESTO for one item category. How can I accomplish this. Please advice.
Thanks
Manassha.

These are system statuses that are maintained and delivered by SAP. They are activated or deactivated by performing an application procedure, or directly.
typically when the Eqpt. is in stock, it will be in ESTO-' in the warehouse' system status.
Once you assign it in a delivery, it will have 2 statuses- EDEL, ESTO- ' In the warehouse' ( as it has not been Goods Issued yet) and ' Assigned in delivery note'.
Once you do a GI of the delivery, I t will be in ECUS- 'At customer site'- status. This is for normal items.
For customer Consignment Fill-up orders, once you deliver and PGI, the eqpt will be in the unusual sounding state of ECUS ESTO, because it is goods issued to a customer at the same time because it is associated with Consignment Fill-up ( and not consignment Issue), it will be in ESTO status as the eqpt is still in our stock. I am guessing even Equipment related Made-to-order (MTO) items will have similar status when received from Production Order to sales order stock.
There is no way you could influence this because this is 'system status' and gets determined by what you did- Transactions like PGI, Good receipt etc.
Hope this is clear.

Serial number status of semi finished material.

Hi Gurus,
I have a serialized finished product.
I have a serialized semi finished material as a component of that finished product.
After issuing the semifinished to the production order of the finished product, the serial number status of the semifinished item becomes AVL.
I dont want the semifinished serial number to be reused once it is issued to a production order and the finished material from that production order is delivered .
Help me in acheiving this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Gowrisankar.p

Hi Gowri Shankar,
You should maintain a User Status Profile for the Serial Number Profile, (Through Equipment Category).
Once the Semi finished Material with a particular Serial Number is Issued for a production order. The status should change to Say " Used". Then this Serial Number cannot be assigned again to a new Semifinished Goods.
User Status profile should be defined in transaction BS02.
Thanks And Regards,
Balasubramanian.

Goods Receipt entry for items with serial number

Hi All,
When I try to create a Goods receipt entry, for items with serial number, i'm always getting the following error message.
[OSRI] , 'The selected quantity of serial/batch numbers is greater than the quantity in row Id'

Dim ErrCode As Long
Dim ErrMsg As String
Dim ret As Long
Set oInvetoryGenEntry = oCmp.GetBusinessObject(oInventoryGenEntry)

        MsgBox ErrCode & " " & ErrMsg
    Else
        MsgBox "GRN Entry made."

Serial number status EDEL ESTO in SD

Hi guys,
I already spent two days on searching a proper answer on serial number statuses. I have a problem with system status on serial number master data, when I try to put on delivery a serial number which was returned from customer. I get an error message due to status EDEL ESTO on serial number.
BS013 System status EDEL is active (EQU 10009522)
IO201 Serial number 333444555666845 cannot be used here
I know that I have an option to change system status manually through IQ02 transaction, but that is not an option, because system should run automatically. We create a sales order, delivery and invoice automatically through the interface. It can hapeened that there is a return made (also over interface), so the good is returned to the stock and it could be sold again in the next step.
How can I prevent that the status is set to EDEL ESTO instead to ESTO only?
THX and BR,
Matija

Hello Matija
Try this:
go to the trx BS22, search the status EDEL. Then , you double-click on short text.
Search operation PMS8 and set flag "enable" o "warning". Whit this setting, You can post a delivery whit status ESTO EDEL.
Good luck

Urgent!!! Serial Number Status AVLB EDEL

Hi PP Guru,
I need your help in resolving the issue.
We have one material with Serial Number status 'AVLB EDEL' and I am aware that the system sets this status to Serial Number when assigned in deliveries and not yet PGI'd.
I cant find from where this status came from since I searched from all the tables and could not determine its linkage with any deliveries.I searched tables like SER01, OBJK, SERI and also looked into the materials documents but could not find the serial number anywhere.
The issue came to the notice when we were trying to do delivery with the same serial number and the system was not allowing us to do so.
Please advise when this could happen when the serial Number status is AVLB EDEL though not assigned in deliveries.
Appreciate your response. Its pretty urgent.
Thankyou,
Rahul.

Hi,
I looked into the program mentioned by jeevan and I earlier looked into Serial Number history but there is no history available. Then also I can see the material with AVLB EDEL Status.
This is defeintly a strange issue but want to know the root cause for the same.
I tried to replicate the same in my sandbox but not getting replicate.
Thank You.

Update the serial number status

Hello Gurus,
We are facing very often the error message "System status ESTO is active (EQU 14584774)" due to, somethime, the serial number we want to receive is on the plant already.
we know the reason about this error and we have decide to ignore it by changing the status of the serial number in to available with SQ02.
However, we want to automatize this status updating at the time to make the reception by posting the inbound delivery).
Does anyone of you know about a FM to change the serial number status? or maybe a user or a badi,
PLease, give me some ideas, as I have been looking in everywhere for an easy solution without success.
thanks a lot in advance

Hi David,
Go to the T.code BS22 and select I0184 - ESTO and double click on the line.
Then select PMS1 - Good Receipt and change the radio button to Allowed or Warning and save it.
Warning: Once you activate this setting, you will no more receive any error or need to change the status of the SN, even if the SN already exist in the warehouse.I mean same SN will be allowed for multiple GR transactions, even though the SN already exist in the warehouse.
Best option is to change to warning option, provided this does not Impact your business scenario.

Returns delivery and Serial Number status

Hi Experts,
for Goods returns, we create a Returns Delivery with a Material and Serial No.
We can't make any Goods movement because the Status (into IQ03) stay on ECUS (or EKUN).
I can modify this status by using IE02, but is it possible to do it with a Function or BAPI ?
Thanks.

David

Query about perishable item and serial number entry in RMS

hi ,
can some one help me to explore the below mentioned option RMS
1. how can we mark an item as an perishable item in rms
2. where to enter the serial number for an item in RMS.
regards,
deepak

hi erik,
yeah you are right its an unique number which is assigned to the product by the supplier which is not an barcode or PLU. when i tried to find the same i found vpn and LOV like upc , isbn and oracle retail number etc while i am in the process of creating an item.
i would like to know after we create an oracle retail number or the retailer's own sku number if we want to add multiple ean code and unique serial code how can we execute the same in RMS.
eg 1: a brand of a shampoo will have its common sku number but at the same time it can have multiple ean code/bar codes.
eg 2: mobile phones with common sku number can have IMEI and other codes .
regards,
deepak
