Material Conversion in MB1B

Hi,
I want to post material no.413003 to material no. 160003 through MB1B through movement type 309, but its not happening showing following error.
" Stockkeeping unit EA and KG differ "
Material Code 413003 (Brass component) base unit is EA and storage location is SCRP plant 101
Material Code 160003 (Brass scrap) base unit is KG and storage location is SCRP plant 101
For 413003 - In Material master additional tab following entries there
1 EA each <==> 1 EA each
1 KG kg <==> 14706 EA each
Also I given "Unit of issue" field in Material master Plant data/ Storage location view as KG in 413003 and conversion factor as 14706, but still the same error is showing in MB1B.
I Tried to delete 1st entry from additional tab in material master for 413003 but system won't allow to delete stating error message is "The base unit of measure can not be deleted"
regards
Nitin

Dear Balarajumm
Thanks for your reply.
I can't change the base unit, because its need of the business, sometimes some products uses KG and EA units simultenously. Without changing base unit, please let me know how I can transfer from one material to another material. If mov,type 309 doesn't work OK, I will follow other procedure which solve my issue, but I can't change base unit of the material.

Material Conversion Error

Hi gurus,
i have executed a query and i have tried to drill on material then i got an error saying that
internal system error....BMG135
which says material conversion settings not found...
how to solve this error and fix so that i can see the material in my report.
thanks
Neel

Hi,
take a look
0MATERIAL conversion exit
execute report (transaction se38) RSCC_V_TMCNV helps.
Set the length of 0MATERIAL and change conversion to alpha:
Re: Error Installing 0MATERIAL from Business Content
oss note 555675
Solution
Make the settings for the material number conversion.
In BW Release 2.1C, the settings are maintained for the material number conversion via report RSCC_V_TMCNV.
As of BW Release 3.0A, the settings are maintained for the material number conversion via transaction OMSL.
Select the same settings as the settings made in the OLTP system.
Note that you must also perform the setting in client 000 if the error occurred while you were importing a transport request.
hope this helps.
Go to transaction OMSL in BW and set the length of material number same as that in transaction OMSL in R/3, should resolve the problem.
hope it helps

How to Get PO from Material Document by MB1B!

Hi,
I created a PO for subcontracting. When I send
the goods to vendor with trx MB1B and mvt type 541, Material Document Number will be generated (option: to Purchase Order) . When print out this Material Document Number by MB90, I want to get this PO number. Please let me know how to get the relation bw this PO and Material Document.(I have checked in MKPF-XBLNR, but it is blank).
Thanks in advance.

there's no relation. the process how you have implemented it leaves no relation between PO and GM except for your doing so 'artificially' by filling field XABLN (for example) or any other.
if you would adjust the process to use deliveries (tx. ME2O) the prospect would not be much better but there would at least be a chance to find the relation.
as it is, SAP designed this to be a 'transfer posting' - to do it entering a PO-number is only in order to make typing easier but does not mean, items, quantities or anything else has to be entered as it is in the PO. you can add as many line items as you like ... as long as there's available stock you get your movement.

Modifying accounting document linked to material document in MB1B

Hi Everyone,
While doing transfer posting in MB1B with movement type 453 there is an accounting document generated.
The requirement is to split this accouting document to have accounting entry as :
Inventory G/L Dr (100%)
COGS G/L Cr (70 %)
Specific Reserve G/L Cr (30%)
Also need to check on the profit center determined in this accounting document to have a user defined logic for this determination.
If you have worked on or seen any such enhancement, requrest you to share how it was achieved- Customer Exits, BADIs, BTEs,or something else.
Thanks,
Hemant

Hi Sai,
This movement (453)is done to take back the customer returned parts into the inventory and hence involves accounting entry.
The scenario involves customer service. Instead of crediting the COGS G/L completely, part of it needs to be credited as service reserves. Hence lets say inventory is going up by $ 100 upon reciept of the material the balancing credit needs to be posted to two G/L accounts with a proportation let say 70 :30. With that $ 70 should go to COGS G/L and $ 30 should hit service reserves.
Secondly the profit center determination in standard SAP is based on Plant/Material combination. It is required to populate this profiit center with a custom logic.
Hope this explains the functional requirement.
Thanks,
Hemant

Material conversion into APO Material?

hi experts,
the characteristic for material in the BW system (0MATERIAL) is 18 characters long, and in SCM (9AMATNR u2013 here ZAMATNR) it is 40 characters long.
In order to compensate for this difference, you need in the transformation from BW to SCM, we can use the below standard conversion exits:
CONVERSION_EXIT_PRODU_OUTPUT (to remove leading zeros from 0MATERIAL)
CONVERSION_EXIT_PRODU_INPUT (to set leading zeros on ZAMATNR)
How and where to write the code and includes those above function modules in order to achieve that?

venuscm

Karthik,
Absolutely, this is an acceptable way to manage lower level parts.
If part of your 'feasible' production plan includes a product check of lower level parts, then yes, you need to send across all MRP relevant elements for the lower level materials. All demand elements, and all supply elements, including stock,
I caution you not to inadvertently plan any such materials in both systems. R/3 will automatically pass dependent requirements from the X0 parts (which were generated in APO) down to the lower level parts, and it will assume that you plan them in R/3. Ensure that your APO heuristics exclude these lower level parts in APO.

Dear All,
When performing a material to material conversion in MB1B transaction for batch managed materials,system is creating a new batch by copying the characteristics of issuing material/batch.The details of the new batch created are updated in standard batch tables(MCH1,MCHA,MCHA).
The requirement is when the new batch is created,the batch details and characteristics has to be stamped in a custom table.
Kindly suggest a user exit/BAIi available for updating the same in the custom table.

Combination ( A+B )=c ( materail seperation )

Hello
we have 3 materials like a,b and c ... C=(a+b)
i want to procure the C material from the vendor . after receiving C stock . sepate C into A abd B and sell A and B seperately to customer .please guide me to map the above process ,
@sakhi

Hi
The other option available in Material to material conversion through MB1B 309.But is it always advisable not to do so.Because by doing so you are creating a new material from existing one without incurring any expenses .This might be an Audit issue in future .Hence go via Production order route.

Conversion of External material with Internal using search help

Hi,
We are working on ECC 6.0 for automotive company and have following scenario.
One OE (External/Customer) material number (MARA-BISMT) with more than one internal material number (MARA-MATNR). This has been done because same customer material is sold by delar for different brands, for exmaple BMW, Ford, Opel. Therefore we have different internal materials with respective brands with same external number in material master.
Business requirement is, all correspondence with customer or vendor should be done using external/customer material number.
Whereas all internal business process should use internal SAP material number.
For example as given below
External No. --> Internal No.
BMW-1 --> 1001 (Brand - BMW)
BMW-1 --> 1002 (Brand - Ford)
BMW-1 --> 1003 (Brand - Opel)
Now the requirement is that user will create document, for example PO or SO, with external/customer material number. While
doing that user should get a pop up screen after entering external material number, if external material is attached/corresponds to multilple internal material number. Then user will selects correct internal number from pop up screen and return to document screen but material field should displayed with external material number.
For example in above case, user will enter BMW-1. Pup up screen will have three internal numbers 1001, 1002 and 1003. User selects 1003 but after material conversion material field of the document will displayed as BMW-1.
We are using Customer enhancement - "MGA00003 Material Master (Industry and Retail): Number Display" for input/ouput conversion.
Also we have created Elementary Search Help - SEARCH_OE_NUMBER with Hot Key "Q". This search help is included into
collective search help "MAT1_A" so that user can able to see multiple internal material number by entring customer material number.
We are able to convert external material number with internal material number and put the external material while creating PO. But when we add another item in PO, search help is getting called again and again for first line item even after conversion of matrial has been taken place.
How we can avoid this multiple calling of serach help?
Is there any better way to achieve this requirement?
Please help us.
Thanks,

We have resolved this issue by redesigning material master data.

Material to mat. conversion with diff. quantities

hI,
Material A having 10 pieces, I want, material to material conversion with different quantity, Ex- Mat B = 12 Pieces.
Mat A 10 Pieces conversionin to Mat B 12 Pieces
Can any body Tell me which MVtyp should USe.
The Valuation of Both Materials is MAP.
The valuution of A is 100
The Valuation of B is 150.
Can i Use MVT 201 and 202 for the same.
If OK,
What about the diferecnce Prices.
Waiting for reply
Veera.

if you want to receive 12 material from conversion of material A as 10 then oyu can not user direct trasfer movement type.
you have to create production order and enter component as Material A for 10 peice and receive Mateiral B as 12.
you can not do with material to materail transfer via inventory

Material to Materials conversions

Dear Team,
Client is procuring a material in a set. That comprises of some child
components. PR/PO/GRN will be done for the main parent material. On
some occassions the Goods Issue will be done for the parent material as
a set and other occassions the parent material will be split into child
components. Then goods issue will be done for child components.
Presently material to material conversion is possible only for one to
one relation ship. How to break a main material in to child materials
with one to many relationship.
Regards,

The scenario is like procuring a KIT and split it into components. There is no standard SAP solution for this.
There is a related thread. Have a look : [KIT purchase and stock updation of individual components;
