Material confirmation in WO

Hi guys,
I have a requirement to modify SAP config to behave in such a way that material requirement on a work order will not be confirmed until the order is released or scheduled. Only at this point will reservation/requisitions would then be created.
I have had a look at teh config and cannot see material confirmations - only commitments. I can see operation confirmations though, but I so far couldn't see where you could specify the work order system status that would have to be set to set this confirmation.
Is there any configuration in PM to cater for the above scenario? If not then I could look at custom modification - i.e. user exits etc.
Thanks
Mantas

Hi Mantas........
What I understand from your question is that you want the reservation / purchase requisition should only be created for a material or service when the maint. work order is released & not immediately. If I am correct, then this is what you have to do.......
Go to customizing, Plant Maintenance & Customer Service - Maintenance & Service Processing - Maintenance & Service Orders - Functions & Settings for Order Types - Define Change Docs, Collective Purc. Req Indicator, Operation No. Interval.....
Here you can do the setting for your plant & order type as when to release the PR or do the reservation for material......
Hope this will help you.......

Material Confirmed quantity and Open quantity

Hi All,
I am working on a report where the user wants the material confirmed quantity and open quantity at the batch level. I know for open quantity VBBE-OMENG can work. Just need confirmation that this is the correct field. However for confirmed quantity I am not able to narrow it down to one field. I have the following fields as possibilities but not sure which is the right one.
1) VBBE-VMENG
2) VBEP-BMENG (This is the at the sales order level though. We need it at the batch level)
Can you please let me know if i have the right approach here? The report has Material, plant, sloc and batch along with a bunch of other fields.
Regards.
Sid

Hello,
you should extract the quantities from all the deliveries selected for material and batch, and selecting only open deliveries.
Use a selection like this:
    SELECT lips~MATNR lips~WERKS
           lips~CHARG lips~LFIMG
      INTO TABLE lt_lips
      from lips as lips
      INNER JOIN vbup as vbup
        on lips~VBELN = vbup~VBELN AND
           lips~POSNR = vbup~POSNR
     WHERE lips~MATNR = p_matnr
       AND lips~WERKS = P_WERKS
       AND lips~CHARG = P_CHARG
       AND ( vbup~WBSTA eq 'A' or
             vbup~WBSTA eq 'B' ).

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 confirmation in ECC based on service confirmation in CRM

The scenario is Service order & confirmation is in SAP CRM & the billing is in ECC
The Issue is about material ( spare parts) issue in ECC based on the service confirmation in CRM. In ECC the spare parts are batch managed.
So to do an automatic goods issue in ECC, we need to enable a BAPI for batch determination.
Now we are contemplating of doing the goods issue in ECC manually.
Request you to see if the below scenario works or a better solution is possible
Can we assign a normal sales order type instead of a debit memo so that delivery of spare parts & then billing can take place.
The menu path I am talking about is ( ECC- SPRO- Integration with other mySAP components-CRM-Settings for service processing-billing integration-map transaction types & item categories)

Hi Madhu G
I have defined the confirmation profile in Opk0. I know that I can assign a different profile with reference to user.
I dont want confirmation profile based on Storage location
I want the confirmation screen to be different for different materials -plant combination. Does anyone have any idea how this can be achieved?

Problem with Material Confirmation (Availability Check)

Dear All,
There is a problem with the availability check. when i place order system does availability check and confirms the order. Now say for example i have 100qty of material - X and i created order for 50qty, system confirmed and then i went on creating orders for this , say i have created orders for it for 150qty, so system has confirmed 100 and 50 on future date.
Now when i try to do the delievry for the first order(50 qty), system gives me an error that "0" qty is available.
Can you please tell me what may be the reason for this.
Thanks,

You can also check in T-code Co09 of the availability. Best and easy one to read for me has been MD04 Transaction code.
What system does in Sales Order is that it plans the requirement taking into consideration Material availability and if material doesn't exist but sees that in a few days in the future material will be available so system confirms it. Note that physically the material may not even be present. You find out if you really have physical stock in the delivery. For example in the sales order in the future the system sees that a Purchase Order will take place so system confirms it. Even though physically you have not even done a goods receipt for that PO. So any Sales Order which has been created before holds that reservation. So if you make a PO goods receipt in the future all those sales order has taken up this stock even. So the new sales order you created may not even have physical stock present or available as back order exists.
If you delete Deliveries that have not had PGI done to them this will take the requirement out of the list of Deliveries you can see this in MMBE if you scroll to the right. You can also do reason for rejection for other old orders to take out reservation in MD04.
Good Luck

Dependent material confirmation through MD04

Dear Expert,
I have planned order generated in md04, but how can get to know through MD04 that all the planned order has all the dependent material in stock. Because at present when i make the production order that time i come to know that some material short of stock.
Regards,
Phalgun Patel

Phalgun,
Well, MD04 is a stock requirements list, and it is not designed to display component availability. I will assume that you are saying that 'when I select the planned order in MD04, and then select the 'convert to production order' icon, I want to know if there is stock missing for the components".
As mentioned earlier by expert Tejas, you can configure the order such that it will perform an availability check during Save, and if the stock is missing, not permit the production order to be Saved. This is a concrete indicator that you have a material shortage. Follow his helpful configuration hints.
You also mention that you want that the material must be in stock. For this, you have to ensure that the scope of check of the ATP in the production orders only allows a successful ATP when the materials are actually in stock.
For this, find the checking rule you are using for production orders (OPJK), then go to OPJJ. Find the ATP check (Material Master) and the checking rule (from OPJK). Ensure that Incl Purchase Orders, Incl Purch requisitions, Incl Reservations, Incl Planned orders, and Incl Production orders are not checked. Also, you will probably want to tick "check without RLT'.

SRM confirmation number - R/3 material document

Hi all,
I'd want to know if I can find in a R/3 table the SRM material confirmation.
Example: I created a SRM material confirmation 9000279101. In R/3 the system created material document 1000000013 associated to SRM confirmation 9000279101.
Can I find a R/3 table where there' s a connection between material document and SRM material confirmation?
I Know only ESSR Table of R/3, but it contains only Service confirmation.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Valerio
Please look at this thread:

Error in Process confirmation editing

Hi, Experts,
One of the users did a confirmation and got Error in Process status.
I know that he can change this confirmation thru Display and Process Confirmations Centrally ,
but the client doesn't want me to add the user this role.
Is there another way to change this confirmation? May be, something with authorizations
but not adding the central confirmation.
Good Day,

Hi,
If it is Material confirmation, check the idoc status.

Confirmation in MAM

Hello all,
I created a scenario in the back-end to allow the user to change the activity type in a confirmation of a Service Order.
In MAM, I can create a new operation and select the activity type from a list, but I cannot change the activity type in a time confirmation or material confirmation.
Furthermore the activity type in the confirmation is not the same like the operation, it seems that it is the default activity type defined from the work center.
How I can be able to select the activity type in the confirmation from the list?
Thanks,
Tipiah

Hello Abhishek,
In MAM there is a customization available which will close the Order automatically after final confirmations are done for all Order Operations. You do not need a BADI to do this.
1. Goto transaction: SPRO
2. Path: Plant Maintenance & Customer Service -> Maintenance & Service Processing -> Mobile Asset Management -> Determine Order Processing.
3. Now select your Order Profile. and select the Confirmation Profile from the Dialog Structure.
4. In teheTime Confirmation Section the first property is called 'Order Closing'. Here select the 'Automatic Completion after Final Confirmation Indicator'.
5. Save and exit.
This should do the job for you.

Dilip

Delete Customer order confirmation

Hi, I have a problem with the availability of a material. When I go to Trx CO09 it shows 6 units of the material Confirmed for a Customer Order. But I cant find this order, instead of showing the sales document as usually do (e.x. 3300008886/000010/0001) it shows In process.
I look at table VBBE and I find a document for that date with qty 6, but the field VBELN (Sales Document) is in blank and the field POSNR (Position) shows 40.
I use trx VA05 but there isnt any open sales order for the material.
How I can delete this confirmation? Why the Sales Document is in blank?
Any help.Thanks in advance!

Reg: Material Availability Date

Dear All,
I find difficult to understand the logic behing arriving Material Availability Date.
It is not a basic question. Because I know the Availability check process and Backward scheduling process. But I am not able to understand the link between the process to arrive Material Availability Date.
Availability chek is carried with Checking group + Checking rule combination. With that we can conclude the Available quantity to promise the Customer.
But how does the Backward scheduling or Forward scheduling comes into the picture. How does the Backward or Forward scheduling getting triggered? Is it part of Availability check?
Because the quantities are confirmed by Availability check and the dates are confirmed by Backward or Forward scheduling. How does the systems synchronizes the quantity and date? Could you please explain.
I am not able to understand how does the Material confirmed on particular date and how does the Availability check helping to fix it?
Kindly explain.
Regards,
Raja Durai

     1. Basic doubt; I could see a graph with Inward and Outward movements in the given link, is it
         populated based on the movements in CO09?
Yes, the inwards & outward movements that are considered in the ATP check are displayed in CO09. Transaction OVZ9 determines which inward & outward movements are included.
     2. What is the base date for RLT? Is it calculated from Order date or Requested delivery date?
As per response from Phanikumar, check the F1 help of the field in CO09. This is the best explanation available for RLT.
     3. Is forward scheduling considered if we have RLT active?
Yes. RLT is only relevant if there is no available quantity so forward scheduling can be used.
     4. While system does the Backward scheduling, there are possibilites, system can derive the
         Material availability date in the past, Is Availability check can happen on past days?
Yes, this depends on the customising in OVLY mentioned by G. Lakshmipathi.
Take the following example:
Requested delivery date = today (17th) February
There is a route with 5 days transit time.
RDD (27th) - 5 days transit = GI date of 22nd February.
This is a date in the past. If OVLY allows dates in the past, then 22nd will be accepted. If OVLY does not allow dates in the past, then a forwards scheduling must be executed. This will take todays date as requested material availability date and forwards schedule. 22nd + 5 days = delivery date of 4th March.

Material Ledger : Cost component split different in CO PC and ML

Hello SAP People,
In ML cost component split I don't have the same split that in CK13N COPC.
History
We changed the cost component structure in OKTZ, because we wanted to split on two different cost component the cost of Copper :
-     Copper
-     Primes :Premium cost (transformation cost for producer) on copper.
In CK11N the split is OK and we can read the new cost element corresponding to premium cost.
To split the costing tool goes on the purchase info records to read condition type that are different for copper and premium.
The problem we have is that when we run Material ledger we are not able to see after a good receipt a similar split in the cost component view.
We already run MLCCS_RESET and MLCCS_Startup programs this month and created new Raw material after. But it seems the ML do not take care of this and all the actual cost (I stop to single level) are on the copper cost component and there is nothing on Premium cost component.
We just run single level on ML for current month.
Could you please help me to explain why we are not able to obtain the correct split between Copper and u201CPrimesu201D

Hi Marco,
yes, these both are independent from each other. You will have no issue when these are different.
It is very typical that you want to report different kind of information for activities as for materials.
A typical setup might be
Activity                                   Material
Asset depreciation                   Raw Material Cost
Room cost                               Energy
Labour                                     Production Cost
labour overhead                      Production Overhead
Electricity                                 Packaging
When you use the activity for the production of a material (confirmation CO15) the assignment goes normally to a single cost component in the material, above for example into production cost. This is controlled by the cost element. Only when the primary cost component split is activated and a transfer structure betweeen both is maintained you could achieve
Asset depeciation, Room Cost, Labour overhead -> Production overhead
Labour -> Production Cost
Electricity -> Energy

How to calculate Goods issue date based on the time of delivery

Hi SAP Gurus,
I seek your help/suggestion for the given scenario.
The user requires calculating the GI date based on time of delivery.
Based on the delivery priority (like Priority 1= Day 1, Priority 2= Day 2) maintained in customer master, the need is something like below-
1st case= If Retail Customeru2019s delivery orders received before midday (Noon cut off) require to be dispatched on same working day (Day 1)
Wholesaler customer delivery orders received before midday require to be dispatched by the next
Working day (Day 2 Including day of receipt)
2nd case= Retail customeru2019s delivery orders received after midday require to be dispatched by the next working day
Wholesaler customer delivery orders received after midday require to be dispatched by on day 3
Kindly suggest , how to proceed in this. I am new to SAP world so need ur help to tackle this.
Thanks a lot in advance for the valuable inputs.

What I proposed to do was,
a. Create routes like 0 day route, 1 Day route, 2 day route etc.
b. Route determination is based on the Shipping condition of the customer. Put in the shipping condition for the customer as 00 - immediate delivery. 01 - By Truck, 02 - By Rail, 03 - Ship etc
c. Now, put in your route determination in such a way that routes change in the sales order with shipping condition (SC). Like, if the shipping condition is set to 00, then 0 day route comes up. Meaning immediate delivery, if SC is 01, then your normal route by truck picks up. etc.
When the sales order is manually created, you know the time of creation. As route is one of the criteria, the material confirmation happens based on number of days you put in the route to reach the destination. Now that you have the material available for today's delivery, the delivery program can be run to create it, or it can be manually created.
Now, when you configure the route you have to specify 'Transit duration in calendar days'.
When you have the sales order created electronically (say thru EDI), then, you may have to ask them to send in shipping condition. Else, you have to modify the function module Idoc_input_orders in such a way that if the sales order creation time is < 12 PM, then put shipping condition as 00, else copy what ever is there in the customer.
If you do not want to check the time manually when the user creates the sales order, then you may have to use the user exit MV45AFZZ (and I think you can use Save_order_prepare) to check the time and change the shipping condition. By this you will avoid extra coding in Idoc_input_orders and also need not bother if the user changed the route or not.
Hope my explanation helps.

Mukund S

How to see the cost of a batch

Dear Experts
How do I see the cost of a produced batch of material, confirmed from a Process Order?

When the order is displayed COR3, & then I go through this path: Goto >> Cost >> Analysis, I get a report in this format;
Cost Elem Total act.costs Target/actual var Currency
421303             453,600               453,600                  NGN

                       3,146,400-           3,146,400-
The info in the first row is for 261 movement type (goods issue), while the info on the second row is for the 101 (goods receipt)
From this details kindly tell me what is the cost of production?
Is 453,600 (which is the monetary value of the total input quantity) the cost of production? or
Is 3,600,000- (which is the monetary value of the total output quantity) the cost of production? or
Is 3,146,400- (which is the monetary value of the difference between total input qty and output quantity) the cost of production?
After process Order confirmation and TECO, what will be the effect when I carry out Order settlement ko88?
