Material Confirmation date in future though the material is in stock

Dear Gurus,
Please tell me why the system is giving the material confirmation date in future though the matl is available in stock.
System creating two schedule lines one for 15/10 (15 oct) and the second one with the confirmation of quantity on 22/11 (22 Nov) as I have enough stock than the required for this order. In MRP1 view of same matl Master of same material delivery planning time is 28 days. and in MRP3 view the Replenishment lead time is 20 days. please tell me what date system considering to shift the confirmation date in future. the factory calender has Sat-sunday off.
please tell me the possible reasons for confirmation date change.
regards,
Sandesh

Hi ,
Please check the value at MM03-> Sales: General plant Tab ->Availability Check is '02'.
u201802u2019 will consider all the u2018Individual Requirementsu2019 done before and during the creation of Sales order for the combination of respective Material & Plant.
Even though Material stock will be visible for you at MMBe for respective plant double click on the Quantity, it will show you multiple Row with one of it will be " On Order Stock" these are the other orders for which Quantity is already confirmed but respective PGI is not yet done.
The next schedule line date always generated based on the Factory calendar (based on Holidays/Weekly Offs if any).
AT MD04 Tcode, based on the selection made at Material master for Availability Check you could see all the requirements related to Goods Issue Sales Orders , STO & Production Orders for Goods receipts.
Hope this will solve your query.
With Best Regards,
RB.

Facing Schedule lines Material Confirmation date inconsisteny in order

Hi Experts,
We have created Material 100 (FERT) in Plant 1000 (in both Storage location - 0001 & 0002) as well as maintained in production time: 14days in MRP2 tab.
When I attempt the material 100 in standard sales order Iu2019m receiving schedule confirmation date: next day (01.12.2011) for Plant 1000 and storage location 0002 combination (using Field user exit for automatic storage location determination).
However when I change the storage location from 0002 to 0001 in the sales order item level manually u2026Iu2019m getting schedule Material Confirmation Date: 15.12.2011 Pop up...
Expertsu2026 please guide me where I did the mistake for 0001 Storage location and right me.
Thanking you !!!
Vijaykumar K

dear friend,
in this case you would open 2 sessions in MM03:
this material on Plant Data / stor.1
and same material for same tab for the second Sloc
and compare data
say, for example, the difference might be in Container reqs field or someone else...
compare Plantdata/stor. 2 for your SLocs as well
good luck!

Material availability not coming even when the material is in stock

Hi,
My client is facing problems in creating a free of charge delivery order for a customer with a material with quantity 1.
In MMBE, the material is available in the plant and storage location - quantity available is 1.
Now when the client is creating the free of charge delivery order with the same material, the plant and storage locations are getting determined automatically but when the system runs the availability check for the requested delivery date i.e current date, the confirmed quantities is 0 and no further schedule lines are there for confirmed quantities.
I checked in MMBE for the determined plant and storage location, the stock is available (quantity 1) but still there are no confirmed quantities.
What should be the reason behind the same.
Thanks and regards,

To create a Material using BAPI with out passing the material number

Hello Experts,
I am using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to create a material of some Ztype. I am successfully creating a material if I am passing Material Number as input. I want the material number to generated internally.
When I am doing material creation with same input data with out material number using BDC, it is working fine. It is generating the material number.
But, not with the BAPI.
Do, I need to specify this some where in the BAPI to generate the Material number internally? Please let me know.
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks & Regards,
Naresh.

Hi,
Read the BAPI documentation regarding Internal Number range for materials.
When you create material master data, the following fields must always
contain a value in the structure:
o   MATERIAL
    Only external number assignment is supported for the material number
    (MATERIAL). If you want the material number to be assigned
    internally, the method BAPI_MATERIAL_GETINTNUMBER must first be
    called. This method determines an internal number for the material
    to be created. You must enter this internal number in field
    HEADDATA-MATERIAL.

Create Material Master Data with BAPI

Hi,
I don't know using of BAPI. I want using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA bapi for creating material master data for Basic Data1, Basic Data2, Purchasing and MRP views. Does anybody can help me ?
Thank you
Good night

Hi,
Please refer to the documentation below:
BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
Short Text
Create and Change Article Master Data
Functionality
You use this method to create new material master data or to change existing material master data. The data on a material can be transferred for each call.
When creating material master data, you must transfer the material number, the material type, and the industry sector to the method. You must also enter a material description and its language.
When changing material master data, you need enter only the material number.
In the header data, you must select at least one view for which data is to be created. Depending on the view selected, you must maintain other required parameters. If you do not enter values for all of the required parameters, the method is ended with an error message.
The corresponding fields in the tables (such as CLIENTDATA) must first be supplied with data by the calling program. An indicator must also be set for each of these fields so that the data is written to the database by the method. This requires the calling program to supply the corresponding field with the indicator in a checkbox table (for example, CLIENTDATAX). Checkbox tables exist for tables that do not contain any language-dependent texts (MAKT, MLTX), International Article Numbers (MEAN), or tax classifications (MLAN). Several data records for a material can be created in these tables.
If a structure contains fields for units of measurement (such as structure CLIENTDATA, field BASE_UOM), language indicators (such as structure MATERIALDESCRIPTION, field LANGU), or country indicators (such as structure TAXCLASSIFICATIONS, field DEPCOUNTRY), there is always a field of the same name with the ending _ISO. This makes it possible to transfer either the internally used SAP code or a standardized ISO code for the units of measurement, language indicators, or country indicators. ISO codes are converted to an SAP code internally for further processing. The ISO code is used only if the SAP code is not transferred. If you use ISO codes, there must be a unique assignment of the ISO code to the SAP code in the following activities in Customizing for Global Parameters:
Check Units of Measurement
Define Countries
If you want to maintain long texts (basic data texts, internal comments, purchase order texts, material memos, or sales texts) or customer-defined fields for a material, some special conditions have to be observed. They are described in the documentation for parameters MATERIALLONGTEXT and EXTENSIONIN.

Creation of material using BAPI in LSMW without using material no.

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have a requirement of creating materials using the BAPI in LSMW.
I tried to create a material using the BAPI (Business Object - BUS1001006 , and method - SAVEDATA) which should be created internally, but it is asking the material number to be given externally and my configuration is setup to create the material number internally.
Even I looked into the material type which is associated with the number range and everything looks good.
Is there any solution to create the material by using BAPI in LSMW without passing the material no. externally ?
Appreciate your help.
Kalikonda.

Hi,
it looks like it's not possible to call this BAPI wihtout material number. Here is a quote from BAPI documentation.
When creating material master data, you must transfer the material
number, the material type, and the industry sector to the method. You
must also enter a material description and its language.
Cheers

Material Availabilty Date Determination in Sales Order

Hi Gurus,
When creating the sales order, if stock is not available then how the material availability date is determined.
What are the inputs the system consider for calculating the material availability date.
Even though I am giving the total replenishment leadtime, Inhouse processing time(Lot size independent), GR processing time and even the planned delivery time, the system proposing the current date as material availability date irrespective of the sales order quantity.
All responses will be rewarded suitably.
Thanks and Regards,
Jejesh.

Available checking rule in SD.
It depends on the Availability group you have maintained in material master.
The checking rule specifies the scope of the availability check for the respective transactions in sales and distribution by specifying precisely which stocks, receipt and issue elements should be taken into account during the availability check.
Every checking rule is allocated to a checking group: together these two elements determine the final inspection requirements. In addition, the checking rule includes a specification whether or not an availability check should take into account the replenishment lead time ( i.e. Total time for the in-house production or for the external procurement of a product. In in-house production the replenishment lead time is determined to cover all BOM levels.)
Items for which the delivery date falls within the replenishment lead time, but for which there is no inventory, are confirmed for delivery after the replenishment lead time. In the case of items for which the delivery date falls after the end of the replenishment lead time, the system assumes that everything can be confirmed.
If you want the system to check the replenishment lead time, you should make sure that you have entered a value in at least one of the following three fields in the material master:
GR (goods receipt) processing time (Purchasing view)
Planned delivery time (MRP I view)
GR processing time (MRP II view)
Otherwise, the system confirms every requirement.
Ava checking group what you have maintained in material master and the checking rule for SD (in std system is A)
--combination of above will decide how the ava check to be carried out and decide the delivery date. This sitting is available in SPRO in OVZ9.
If you carry out the availability check using the replenishment lead time, you should plan ahead in regular intervals (on a daily basis for individual and daily requirements, on a weekly basis for weekly requirements) to prevent a shortage and therefore a possible delivery block. This shortage could occur if the delivery date of a sales order, which was confirmed the previous day for the replenishment lead time, is already within the replenishment period on the current day and therefore results in a shortage.
Hence,
1. Check the configurations for the checking groups which are contained in the standard SAP R/3 System.
2. Make sure that the checking group is maintained in the material master records. Depending on the plant, you can specify a checking group for each material type
3. Select the individual stock elements as well as the receipts and issues which should be taken into account during the availability check.
4. Select the field for replenishment lead time if you do NOT want to take the replenishment lead time into account.
Depending on above setting delivery date will e determined or delivery block in case no qty available can be designed.

Update material master data BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA

Hi All,
I am using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA Fm to update the material master data .
I want to change material type vend (which already existed) to HIBE material type .
Even though Basic data view populated its not updating in Material master .
Which views do i need to populate to change material type one value to other value?

if you use FM - BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA ,you can not update material type , use bdc program to update material type ,
See the transaction : MMAM - No BAPI to update material type
you need to use BDC Program.

Sales Order Material Availability Date Data Source

Hi,
I'm sorry if this information is readily available, but I read ~20 discussions and couldn't find the answer.
Can anyone help me understand how the material availability date is calculated? Is it just based off the In-House Production or Planned Delivery Time of the material master? What if the material has a routing? Is there a way to update the Planned Delivery Time based on the routing?
What about for multiple levels? (e.g. purchase a part, modify it, then ship it) If the BoM exists will it perform the explosion and sum the planned delivery time for the raw material and the in-house production time for the finished material?
I'm asking because we are having many problems with Sales Orders for parts that we can not ship in time... so we must have something missing.
Thanks for any help.
Timothy

Before that you need to understand the delivery scheduling process.
For example customer requested date is 15.04 2014
Order is created today i.e 28.03.2014.
Here system always does backward scheduling first. If the backward scheduling failed then system does forward scheduling. Backward scheduling failed if the material availability date is going beyond the order creation date. then in that case system does forward scheduling.
Backward scheduling does based on the customer requested date and forward scheduling does based on the order creation date.
when system does forward scheduling it will get two scheduling date in the schedule line tab.
Suppose Pick/Pack time is 1
Loading date is 1
transit time is 1
transportation time is 1
Here system will do the backward scheduling first for calculating the customer requested date
Delivery date minus transit time (Route) = Goods issue date
Goods issue date minus loading time (shipping point) = Loading date
Loading date minus transportation lead time (Route )= Transportation Planning date
Loading date minus pick/pack time (Shipping point) = Material availability date
here material availability date is 12.04.2014. on that date system will check whether material is available or not. If yes, then system will confirmed the quantity. If not then system will again do forward scheduling.
Suppose material available date is 13.04.2014 then system will add the all the above date to material availability date to calculate the actual customer delivery date
So here the customer requested date is 16.04.2014
Transportation lead time & pick/pack run parallely. system will consider the highest between both.

ALE:Material Master Data Distribution

Hi
I am new to ALE Material Master Data Distribution and if the questions are incorrectly worded, please accept my apologies. It is due to lack of knowledge.
I am doing Material Master Data distribution and I am using standard basic type MATMAS03. The standard TCode MM01, MM02 has SAP tables and 3 custom tables.
I have turned the active on using BD61 and change pointers to message type.
Q: Is the change pointer, applicable to entire material master? i.e. if I change a field in Z table or standard material tables, can an IDOC be created for the entire material record?
Q: What is the function of BD52? Does this override the option Activate Change pointers for message type? Does it mean, if the changes are made to those fields in BD52 a change pointer is created?
Q: If I change Z table only, will there be a change pointer created? If not, how could I accomplish this using BD52.
Q When do we use the enhancement MGV00001?
Also, If you could add anything in addition to above queries, it will be helpful to me and I appreciate it.
With regards,
William

Thank you Sudhakar.
Your tips are good, but, I was not able to get the problem resolved.
Let me explain what I have done based on your tips.
1. MATMAS uses MATMAS03. The basic type has NOT been modified to have z fields yet.
2. Using BD52, i have created the following fields
MATERIAL ZEMM_MARA_TECH IM_ADVISORY_CODE
MATERIAL ZEMM_MARA_TECH KEY.
3. Modified the MMR for IM_ADVISORY_CODE.
I did not see a change pointer for this change.
Q: When I created above entry using BD52, was asking the table name. The table name is stored in TCD0B. What TCode is available the entries in TCDOB. For the time being, i created using SQL.
Q. Is there a follow up configuration required to capture the changes?
I will award the points in a couple of days time, even if I do not get the solution, because you have spent your precious time for the community. I will wait for a couple of days for other suggestions and close the Problem.

In PM order, can we change the material description for item category N?

Hi,
In Plant Maintenance work order, is there a way to change the material description while purchasing material (item category N) using a material master number? In config. the material description field is open for input. However on the work order components screen it becomes grey as soon as one enters a material master number.
Background: We want to maintain generic material master records in the system and use them for purchasing materials (item category N) on work orders so that the purchasing data defaults from the material master. But we need to be able to change the description per the specific requirement.
Similar functionality works on sales orders. Are we missing anything?

Hi there,
One solution would be to have some generic materials created and used them during work order processing. These generic materials needs to be extended to all the required plants.
Hope this works,
Cheers !!!

Sales order does not extract plant information from material master data

Hi experts,
I have created a sales order. However, the plant in the shipping tab can only be manually entered.
I have made the check:
the customer material master data does not have the plant info.
the customer master data does not have it either.
It is defined in the material master data: sales:general/plant
But the sales order did not extract this information. Why does this happen?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Fan

Hello Friend,
As right stated by you,
The Plant will be copied from the master data to the sales order, if not it should be manually entered
The Sequence System will search for the Plant is as follow..
1. Customer material infor record, If it was not maintained then it will search in
2. Customer master, if the entre was not maintained in the SHIPPING TAB
3. Finally it will search in the Material master in the Sales organisation data 1 in the field DELVERING PLANT field.
So please search whether the entry was maintained in that field at the sales:sales organisation data 1.
This might be the issue.
Please revert if you want further details

santosh
