IW32 - changing special stock indicator on component reservation

Hello
My client has a question with regards to chaning the special stock indicator on a reservation through transaction IW32. We can change a reservation from blank SSI to special stock indicator P but we are unable to change special stock indicator P to SSI blank. Do any of you know if this is possible.
Also, do you know if there is a BAPI that exists for this transaction?
Many thanks
Sue

Thank you for the information but I am not clear on what you are saying...
I understand that the settings that are in MRP screens will drive the reservation i.e. individual / collective and EX lot for lot but what I don't understand it how that stops you changing the reservation once it has been created.
I can create a reservation for a material if it is ind / coll and EX without the item having a special stock indicator P. I can then change the reservation from blank to P. What I cannot do is if the reservation was created with a special stock indicator of P, I cannot change to blank.
Kind regards
Sue

Special stock indicator for component in process order

Hi,
There is a field in process order where we can maintain special stock indicator for component.
In this filed if we define consignment stock, then the vendor field becomes activated, where the vendor can be given.
Now we want to maintain the data as a master data so that whenever process order is created the sp stock indicator as well as vendor are populated for that particular component.
Q - where to define this master data. I could not see such fields in BOM?
regards,
Mohit

Hi Sunderesan,
Thaks for responding. Even by doing this system does not propose special stock indicator as '3' in process order & even vendor is not proposed.
My requirement is that system should propose '3' in special stock indicator in process order.
Request to look into this.

Mohit

Change component level special stock indicator for Purchase Ord-through CIF

Hai,
my requirement is to change the the spoecial stock indicator at the component level for the PO .
The purchase reqqusition is available in APO system.At the time converiosn to PO, the PO will get created in R/3 through CIF.
When the Purchase Order is getting saved in R/3 then I need to check the component level Special stock indicator(SOBKZ) & I need change its value.
I am currently using the user exit 'EXIT_SAPLCPUR_001' to change the same.in this user exit, I am changing the component level SOBKZ in the table IT_INPUT & I am also setting X in IT_INPUTX table.
But the changes are not reflecting in the newly created PO.It always shows the value 'E' for SOBKZ.
can any one tell me is this the right user exit to change the above value? if yes please expalin me in rdetail on how to change this.
Thanks,
Bhaskar.

Hai Saurabh,
I have tried changing the CP_POSITION-SOBKZ field in the user exit EXIT_SAPLMEPI_006.This one changes the SOBKZ of the item of PO i.e, the change reflects in EKPO table.
What I am looking for is to change the Component level SOBKZ of the ITEM of the PO.The change reflects in RESB-sobkz table.
I think, In the User exit EXIT_SAPLCPUR_001, the field IT_INPUT-SP_STK_IND is meant for this.But this is not working.
Please inform me how the RESB-SOBKZ can be changed?
Thanks,
Bhaskar

Special stock indicator in Production Order Component overview

Hi Team,
I have one finished product , for which i have created BOM . It has only one component in it .
Now i am creating a Sales order , based on the definition and requirement set , system is creating a production order in background.
When i go to production order and see components overview screen , there is one field special stock . This is getting filled with '1' - Individual customer stock always.
Even though we have stock in storage location , it is expecting components to be in Sales order stock .
If i create a stand alone production order for same materials , there is no special stock indicator set in components .
Can any body let me know how is this special stock field getting populated and what settings has to be reviewed in order to supress the same.
Thanks,
sudhakar

Sudhakar,
Check the MRP parameter 'Individual/Coll' in MRP4 view for the components. This should be set as 2 for collective planning. If this flag is left blank then planning will be based on the parent material (If the parent material is planned for special stock then the components will also be planned for special stock)
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Jaison

How to populate Special Stock Indicator in IW31/IW32

Hi SAP experts,
I want to populate the Special Stock Indicator under Components Tab automatically when user presses ENTER in T.Code IW31/IW32 based on some condition.
Thanks in Advance.
Help will be rewarded.
Gaurav

Gaurav,
You want to do it during a Call txn BDC or write your conditions as an enhancement?
Assuming that it is a Call Txn BDC, all you need is an additonal field in your input file for the stock indicator, with 'X'. Also, you will have to call the screen & tab (dynpro).
Correct me if I got it wrong.
Reward if helpful.

BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN not Updating Special stock indicator field

Hi Experts
I am using BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN to create and then update a Customer Service Order. When am trying to update the Special stock indicator field in the Components Tab(of IW32) through BAPI, its not doing so, and no error is thrown as well.
The required qty and the batch field in the components tab get updated which ensures that the logic am using is the correct one.
Please let me know if anyone has faced such a situation before. Any workaround(some other FM) to update this field is also welcome.
Points guaranteed.
Thanks
Kulpreet Singh.

Hi!
BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN is only updating a field, when you set the update flag also in CHANGE method.
So if you are maintainig the IT_COMPONENT table, you have to put an 'X' into the same field in the IT_COMPONENT_UP table also.
And of course don't forget to commit the modification.

Special stock indicator in production order

Hi,
We have a new business scenario from sales department.
For example, A is a MTO item, it has component B & C. Now there is a sales order for A come in, and system create a production order, but there is no enough stock for B. They want to:
1, Allocate C to the production order and other production order or sales order can not take it away via V_V2 or MRP run.
2. Create another seperate purchase order for B and want this purchase order also allocate to this production order.
3. They do not want to use WIP stock because it is difficult to display WIP stock in SAP you know.
I trying to use the special stock indicator "E" for components in production order, and I move C to custom stock via 412 E with no issue.
But when I create a purchase order for B with account assignment "F", it goes to normal stock in MD04. After I post GR for the purchase order, the quantity goes to production order directly, does not show in MD04 and did not reduce the requirement quantity.
If I create a purchase order for B with account assignment "E", it gives an error message "Sales document item is not defined for the transaction. I tried to change the requirement type from "KMFA" to "KE" in the sales order for A, and the production order disappeared, it is not accepted.
How should I define and configure the process?
Thank you so much.
Albert

Hi Albert
I suggest you to take a look on the setting "individuall/collective" on the tab MRP4 of the material master.
For both components, you should set the value 1 and system will always plan the components under the sales order special stock.

Special stock Indicator in process order

Hi Guys,
I am using Configurable material via BOM dependency. During sales order pop-up and selection are coming well. I have selected Component A1, B2, C2 with characteristic value. Now B2 and C2 have procurement type "F" and for A1 procurement type was X. After MRP run, saw in the planned order as 'special stock type E" for A1 material and in process order it is not taking plant stock. Instead it is asking for sales order stock and componet view shows Account assignment as "M" and special stock indicator as "Individual customer stock". Now I changed the procurement type as "F" and delete re-create MRP/ BOM re-run MRP........still it is not picking up plant stock in availability, instead now asking for purchase requisition. For B2 and C2, not asking for ourchase requisition as there is plant stock. . Why it is happening and how to solve it?
Thanks
Krish

Solved it......It was availability check issue.

Special stock indicator for components

Hi,
For a configarable material a sales order is created which in turn creates a production order. Now in this production order for some materials i find that in component overview of production order indicator SP is 1 (Individual customer stock). This happens only in some orders for this material. i have checked the below points
1) Individual collective indicator in material master MRP 4 view for this component is 2.
2) Stock for the component is more that 1000 pieces in unrestricted use which is more than the orders for this material..
3) Planning strategy for this material is 40.
4) Availability check considers the safety stock.
5) BOM Explosion type in customising is not considered in item overview of this component in the BOM.
The issue raised by the customer is that as it comes as a special stock so a purchase order has to be created for this material and till then it is showed in shortage by availability check.
Regards
Sameer.

Hi,
There is no change in the material master sinnce last year. The customer is removing the special stock indicator from production order manually, but he wants to know why this is happening.
Also checked the purchase requisitions created for this component and they have account assignment M and are pegged directly to the sales order.
Best Regards
Sameer

Work Order - Update special stock indicator in components tab

Hi ,
The requirement is to update the special stock indicator in the components tab of work order based on material number. I tried using the BADI Workorder_update but there was no changing parameter in it and hence it did not work, I also tried using the field symbol option to explicitly change the value but that too failed since it went to short dump prompting that a protected field is being changed.
I am thinking of calling a custom function module at last and updating the value, but for the orders which are being created newly the BADI / user exits contains the temporary number . How could I get the Order number and update the indicator for those orders.
Regards,
Prabaharan.G

I used the EXIT_SAPLCOMK_014 to accomplish this.

Authorization Check for Special Stock Indicator in IE02

Dear Gurus,
Would like to check with you if there is an authorization check for change in Special Stock Indicator in IE02-SerData Tab?
For example, the User will only be allowed to change the Special Stock Indicator only to "E" - Sales Order.
Would appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Hi,
This cannot be done by using standard auth object. Standard SAP doesnt support control via this field.
Take help of your ABAP team and create an customized authorization object "Z_OBJECT" with field SOBKZ and which check these field value in table EQBS. Assign this auth object to role and profile you want.
Use the user exit IEQM0003 Additional checks before equipment update. Give a logic to check auth object when while using equipment change tcode.

Special stock indicator 'E'

Is there a report I can run in SAP, for any items that are "E" linked for particular Customers and any reserve stock that we might have in the warehouse, to have the following Parameters.
1. Material Number,
2. Batch number.
3. Storage type
4. Storage Bin
5. Available Qty
6. Goods Receipt Date
7. B.Un
8. Special Stock Number
9. Reserved items.
thanks

Hi
In IM you could run MB52 and ensure you tick Also include special stocks and then enter 'E'
In WM you could run LX02 and put E in the special stock indicator field
I hope that this helps

Please suggest me what configuration settings need to be checked.

Pls. make the following change in Material Master :
Go to MRP-4 View---> Individual /Coll. Indicator --->

How to avoid special stock indicator for intercompany sales transitions.

Hi Friends
I have an issue Intercompany sales .if I enter intercompany plant(Delivering plant) in the sales order system is taking special stock indicator and looking for sales order stock.
If I enter company code plant for sales from unrestricted stock, system is not taking special stock indicator.
Please advice how to avoid special stock indicator for intercompany sales transitions.
Thanks in advance.
SRK

Ravi,
Special stock is generally determined by the MRP strategy group in the material master of the plant against which you place your order. The strateg(ies) contained in the strategy group will determine the SO requirements type, which will in turn determine whether or not the order is 'account assigned' (special stock).
It is normal to only have one strategy contained in a strategy group. However (and I seldom recommend this) SAP will support multiple strategies within one strategy group. In this case, you could have both MTS and MTO orders against the same plant/material, by manually altering the requirements type in the sales order. This scenario is usually difficult for a planner, and involves additional manual attention to make everything work.
I suggest that your first avenue is to change the Strategy group in the material master of the delivering plant to one that supports MTS. This has a big impact in Controlling and in Production Planning, so ensure that all affected functional groups are aware of what you are doing, and of the resulting changes that they will experience. The transition from MTO to MTS must be carefully controlled.
If you are not a PP expert, I suggest you consult with your local PP expert before embarking on this change.

CO07 and special stock indicator for components

Hello,
My final purpose is to be able to call components from project stock in production orders without header material, created in CO07.
I notice a strange behavior and would be glad to recieve some explanations.
Production orders are assigned to a WBS. If I indicate the WBS in the CO07 selection screen, the special stock indicator for the components is determined as expected:
If view MRP 4 for the component says "Individual requirements" then special stock indicator is set to "Project stock"
If view MRP 4 for the component says "Collective requirements" then special stock indicator is set to "Common stock"
Second scenario is that I don't provide the WBS in the CO07 selection screen, but provide it in the assignment tab later. In this case, the special stock indicator for components will always be empty (common stock) by default, without any possibility to modify this manually.
Is anybody able to explain me why?
Merry Christmas to all.

Hi!
Actually it is not related to SAP Manufacuting Execution solution - so you'd rather re-post the question to ERP-related forum. This can help you find a proper one.
