Material Determination- Pricing

Hi All,
I am working in Material Deterimination ( based on ATP). for eg: if the Product X is 10 QTY , when i create the sales order for Product X for 20 qty , system should pick 10 from X and remaining 10 from Y ( which we mentioend in COndition record). it works fine for me. But i am not sure where we can set the pricing ( like for 10 Qty X pricing and Remaining 10 Y pricing). when i do sales order for 20 qty , system create original line with TAX item category ( for 20 qty pricing) and sub item 10+10 with item category TAPS. how can we control the pricing should be based on Orifinal item or based on sub item.
thanks

MATERIAL DETERMINATION - PRICING ERROR."

Hi all ,
well, material M1 is substitute by material m2.In OVRQ in OUTCOME selected is " A."
@ va01: main item M1 is displayed along with substitute item , with netvalue as 1000 & item category TAX,subitem m2 is in grey mode with item cat TAPS &net value = 0.
@delivery :main item M1 is displayed in gray mode & substitute item is active for pikcing .
@vf01:main item M1 is displayed ,invoice quantity & net value is zero.
can any one throw light on the error .

Hi jerry
say main item material is M1 and sub item material is M2 .
Now as you are doing material determination. system will do delivery and billing for the replaced items
If M1 is the main material and M2 is the sub item material (which is determined through material determination) then in sales order both will trigger but in delivery the main item picking qty will get grayed out and the sub item qty will be picked and the price of the sub item only will come i n the billing and not the price of the main item
so if you want to pick the qty for the main item also then you need to check the box item relavent for picking in delviery item catergory details 0VLP .then you can do delivery but in billing the billing qty will be zero and the net value will also be zero . you can only bill the sub item

Free goods determination from material determination.

Hi experts,
I have one issue for you,
My scenario is:
we issue freee goods 1:1. i configured free goods setting and maintained VBN1 (condition records for free goods). i even maintained material determination configuration settings and maintained VB11 (condition records for material determination). The problem is system proposing free goods automatically when i process sales order without material determination list, if i go through material determination list system not determining free goods nor giving any message. what is the system behaviour if we go through material sustitution list to free goods. the main item (for free goods)will be existed in the substitutiion list. plez help. any suggestion will be highly appreciated.
thanks,
sada

Hi
Please consider the two issues separately. Don't club both the issues. If you have records for both material determination and free goods.,
1. Whether the material substitution is happening perfectly (as per the records created in VB11) or not.
Next.,
2. check whether the free goods are determined for the material in the sales order line item (as per the records created in VBN1) or not.
Please check and post the result.
Sometimes the freegoods will be determined in the sales order but will not create any second line item(as sub item) because while creating the records in VBN1 if you select the option 'Free goods Inclusive without line item generation. In this case NRAB condition type will be determined instead of R100.
So, also check the conditions tab and see whether the entire quantity is priced or not.
Thanks,
Ravi

How to check the analysis of material determination in sales order

hi,
We are trying to create a sale order with material determination. Material determination analysis is on. After switching this on while adding a new line item, in an existing sales order, we are able to do analysis as the system itself takes us to analysis screen. But once the document is saved, we need analysis to be done at material determination for the determined materials , something similar to pricing or account determination analysis.Please help
Regards,
Aparna.

Hi,
If you drag the line item a little towards the right side, you will find a filed material entered. The one you see in the material filed on sales order over view screen is the one determined. You can as well double click and see the fields material entered and material determined.
Is there anything else you are expecting to see as part of analysis ?

Issue in Material Determination and Delivery Block

Hi,
I have an issue while changing a Sale Order. When I clear a particular block in VA02, the manual pricing conditions that were entered in VA01 are deleted and document becomes incomplete again. This happens only to the child material in a material determination scenario. This happens only for that particular block and that too only when I clear the block. If I change the block, there is no such problem. What I would like to know is,
1. Can this error be trigerred from a configuration/setting?
2. Or is there no such possibility of such error happening that it has to be from some user exit?
I tried manually overriding the error, but it didn't work out.
Kindly help me in this issue.
Thanks in advance,

Material Determination based on Availability

Hi SD gurus,
I have a client requirement as below:
We create order via BAPI. Data comes from ext call center system.
Whenever Matnr A is entered in Sales order & it is not available then Matnr B should come.
1: I know that we can handle this in Material Determination. I did req. config in IMG
2: I have created VB11 stating that MATNR A should be substituted by Matnr B. I have ticked the MRP ind in VB11 as well.
Now the question is:
When I enter MATNR A in sales order, & assuming its not available then, MATNR B will come in Sales order.
In my case it is happening. But whenever this happens what should be the item category of the MATNR A & MATNR B?
Please let me understand how will standard SAP behave.
I thought the item A should appear as Text item & probably item B should become relevant for delivery & pricing.
But currently I am getting item category TAX for item A & TAPS for item B in sand box. Is that correct?
What should be the standard item categories in this case?
regards

Hi,
The system runs several checks on on each possible substitute, for example to determine if the customer would accept the product based on the product attributes and current stock availability.The system checks substitute materials until the order quantity is satisfied, or until there are no more possible substitutes.
When a valid alternative is found, the system creates a sub-item for it, using the item category that you have defined for the main material in Customizing.
If there is not enough inventory for the alternatives to cover a required quantity, the system confirms only the available amount and ignores the rest. The main item contains information on the confirmed quantity of the sub-item, but is not relevant for planning. For this reason, the material shortage is not passed on to planning.
If you set the material requirements planning indicator for one of the alternatives, however, the system creates an additional sub-item for this material, assigning it a confirmed quantity equal to zero, and a required quantity equal to the open quantity. Since this material is placed as the final alternative in the substitution, it captures any remaining quantities. The system takes this item into account and passes the material shortage on to planning.
Based on your settings Customizing, the system performs pricing at the main or sub-item level.
There are two separate item categories in sales documents for product selection. The item category TAX contains specifications for the main item (original product). The other, TAPS, contains specifications for the sub-items (substitute product).
Review the item category configurations in the standard system. If these do not meet your requirements, perform the activities in the following topics to modify the item category configuration, or create your own categories. Note that if your product selection procedure requires that pricing be done at the main item instead of the sub-item, you will have to create new item categories.
The following examples detail how pricing is carried out at the main item level and sub-item level for product selection.
Pricing at the Main Item
the price for the order is determined based on the price condition records for the main item only. You have deactivated pricing for the sub-item category, so the system does not determine a price for it. Since both the main item and the sub-item categories are relevant for billing, the prices (even if there is no price) are copied to the invoice and billed accordingly.
Pricing at the Sub-item
the price for the order is determined based on the price condition records for the sub-items. You have deactivated pricing for the main item category, so the system does not determine a price for it. Since both the main item and the sub-item categories are relevant for billing, the prices (even if there is no price) are copied to the invoice and billed accordingly.

Purchase Info Record - Price Determination (Pricing) Date Control

Dear Guru,
Can i get some advice here for the "Price Determination (Pricing) Date Control" (Pr. Date. Cat ) setting which is maintain in the Purchase Info Record --> Purchasing Organization Data 1.
Can anyone advice me on the purpose and where is the configuration?
Thank You very much,
Regards,
Chee Wee

Hi
If you maintain Pricing date category in info record then different pricing date can be considered for a certain material supplied by a particular vendor.
If you maintain in the Vendor master then the same price determination date will be considered for all the vendors materials.
For example,
If you want to maintain two pricing for the materials with different periods then you can use the validity periods according to the requirement.
Validity periods,
1. 01.11.2010 to 31.12.2010
2. 01.01.2011 to 31.01.2011

VB11 - CREATE MATERIAL DETERMINATION. need a BAPI for this

i have to develop an inbound interface program to create VB11 - CREATE MATERIAL DETERMINATION.
Can any one suggest me if there is any BAPI for doing this insted of going to BDC program .
Regards
Raadha

I don't think there will be any BAPI to do the update as material determination is itself dynamic depending upon which determination type you chose from - the key field combination changes accordingly. Just like updating pricing doesn't have any general purpose BAPI.
I think BDC is the only way out here

Tracking of Changes in Material Determination type or Material Substitution

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody suggest how to keep track of the changes made in VB11/VB12/VB13 which is for Material Determination type Maintenance?
Is there any TCODE or tables for tracking the above changes??
Thanks in advance
VIJAYB.

material determination is based on custom condition tables, that are created like one creates tables for pricing or message determination.
Because of this, SAP cannot know that it has to track changes.
You have to activate change records yourself.
Go SE11, enter the table name of your substitution, then click the button for technical settings. in the lower part of the screen you will see a box that need to be flagged if you want log changes.

Material Determination Eff Dates

As I look into using material determination, it looks to me as though the effective (validity) dates are at the table header level, not at the individual condition record level. Is this true? Is there any way to allow the validity dates at the condition record level like in pricing?

Dear Deva,
Please make use of the configuration guide/implementation guide in spro for every link and try to configure things by yourself. If you have any problems, then only raise it as an issue here. Else please get a copy of the SD book written by Glynn C Williams, which has the solution to almost all of your questions.
Hope you understand the purpose of this forum

RRB material determination issue

Hi
We are implementing resource related billing. We have a situation
wherein we have seperate material codes for consulting and training but
they are both linked to the same cost element.
When I configure through ODP1, I can link only one material to a cost
element in material determination. We would like to link 2, one for
consulting and the other for training which should be selectable when
we create the quote or DMR. Is this possible? Is there a user exit or
BADI for this?
We want one material for our consulting WBS and one for training
Thanks in advance

I did that Vengaiah.
I entered characteristic as material and ticked material determination. Then I enter both the materials consulting and training.
In my ECP I have entered hrs as it is T&M (i.e activity type/cost center combination). I could create cost plan succesfully based on hrs entered and labor rates. When I click on sales pricing in project builder to create a quote it says no expenditure items found. How do i corelate the material with the activity type/cost center combination

Material determination-requirment.

dear experts
I am doing Material Determination . Can I have price of main item and substitute item has to be delivered is it possible.
thanks and regards
Mohammed

I think its nt possible through standard configuration.
Why you give other item and charging the customer for main item ?
when determining the other item , we can maintain pricing condition records for that item.
sydtem will pick the price .

Free goods with combination of material determination

Hi All,
I have Materil X for this free good is Y. But for material Y there is material determination with A. In this case what will happen while i am entering the material X in the sale order/
As of my knowledge freegoods don't support for any special function like BOM & vairant config. I don't know about the material det.
Please clarify this doubt.
Regards
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
You can see Material Determination and Free goods as two seperate issues.
For material X, Material Y will be a free good only when material Y is available in stock. The system will not substitute materiail Y with material A just because you have material determination configured for the same.
On the other hand, if you enter material Y on its own i.e. seperately at the line item level of the sales order..........then material determination will occur and the item will be substituted by material A.
See both of them as two seperate scenarios.
Hope its clear.............
Regards
Sai

Material Determination error during Transaction DP90

Dear Experts,
I am configuring the Depot Repair scenario for a Hitech Industry.
The Process is as follows;
1. Ceating the Notification
2. Creating a repair order using Notificaion. and getting the repaired items in to the plant
3. Creaing and confirming the service order and delivering the repaired product to the customer.
4. Creating a Billing Request using service order during transaction DP90.
I am facing the following error!!! -
Material Determination error in the service order line item xxxxx/xx!!!!!!
I have configured the DIP Profile YBR00099 as below.
The characteristics Activity Number, Activity Type and Cost Elemnt were given the Material Determination Check.
The source is---- " Actual Costs and Line Items " with 100 Percent, No sets are used for the source characteristics.
In the Material Determination a Blank Item is used with a Check for the field " Material Direct"
In the Material Determination Criteria for the Blank Material, it is configured as below;
Activity Type            No Set Used - No Value used
Activity NUmber        No Set Used - No Value used
Cost Element           YBR-Material-01(Set values are 608110 and   * )
Note : the above configuration was done using the Config guide AS IS.
The material that was used in the Service order is not maintained in the ODP1 transaction ---> Material Determination.. instead ,only a blank material is used and configured as above.
The subsequent Process should continue as follows;
5. After saving the billing request, two more line items are determined in the repair order.
6. Debit memo is created using the repair order. where the Actual confirmed hours of service and spare parts confirmed if any are billed for the customer.
Basically I am very much new to this RRB concept and I was facing the above error and could n't be able to proceed further.
Please help me in this regard.
