Material for Project Based Production

Dear All,
I have to work on project based production can any one refer me some links or even the code of manual if any so i can purchase it. or any book. plz i waiting for a reply soon

You need to ask a few questions first.
Are finished items, semi-finished items and purchased items to be assigned to different WBS/networks?
Are semi-finished items and purchased items going through stock or directly assigned to WBS/network/production order?
How do you wish to manage the finished items, semi-finished items and purchased stock for the project, i.e. unrestricted stock (typically moving average price for purchased and standard price for manufactured), project stock (i.e. against individual WBS/network or common WBS)
Where do your production and purchasing variances go? Purchasing variances are only an issue if you are using standard prices.
Considering how you wish to treat your stock is the most important issue for project manufacturing.

Budget error while issuing stock to the project based production order

Ours is project based Engineering company, we mfg euipments for the client which is part of the project.
We define separate WBS element for equipment to be manufacture & create reservation under this WBS element.
Secondly we follow production process through PP & define BOM for equipment which contains component rquired to mfg the equipment. To control cost(budget) component group wise we create separate sub WBS element for each component group(plates, motors etc) under above equipment WBS element
Kindly refer e.g.below
1. Equipment (Finished code) to be manufacture is attached on WBS MYC-210952-06-03
2. Production order(1003780) created with reference to above WBS element
3 Material procured under WBS MYC-210952-06-03-001
4. Stock available under WBS MYC-210952-06-03-001
We would like to issue material available under MYC-210952-06-03-001 to production order which is attached to WBS MYC-210952-06-03. (Tcode MB1A)
System allows to issue stock, but gives budget error.
Is it possible to transfer budget auto in the transaction MB1A itself from MYC-210952-06-03-001 to MYC-210952-06-03 or what is the best solution available for above situation.
Kindly confirm.
Thanks & regards

Hi Sanjay,
You have consumed a budget at lower level WBS for material procurement. And at upper level you want to do stock transfer.
But while doing budget allocation you have distributed the budget from Upper level to lower level so there is no distributable value is avaialble at upper level for the amount of the materail stock you want to transfer.
In this either you have to keep your all budget values at upper level where your doing equipment aeembly and not distribute the budget further at lower level.
Now you alredy this so you cant do anything.
Now you have following option available with you. You have perform following activity by the given sequence.
Deactivate the Budget check by CJBW
Do your stock transfer
Do budget return by CJ38 from level WBS to upper level WBS
Now Activate the budget check by CJBV.

Pradeep

Production - Multiple Bills of Material for a FG Product

Hi,
In SAP B1 - It is not possible to create multiple Bills of Materials for a FG product.
Is there any workaround to address this issue?
At our location we have multiple alternative combinations of components which can be used to create the same FG product.
One alternative is to create Special Production Orders (but with no BOM). Is there a better option?
Regards
Manish

HI Manish,
Your Bill of material is dynamic so just try to solve this by alternative items(Raw Material). i hope it will work.
But in SAP B1 standard there is no work arround. you have to change the BIll of material every time. or make one udf in the title level with the name version 1,2,3 ..... and save it in the system. and pick the BOM which you will needed at the time of Production.
I hope it will solve your question.

Non Stock Material for Projects

Hi Gurus,
While doing MIGO for non stock material in case of projects (Category Q), system is giving error which says Account Determination not possible.
Please tell me what setting missing in OBYC for projects.
Thank You

Hi,
Non stock material is consumed during receipt ie Goods receipt is goods issue also and you need not do goods issue seperately. Non stock material cant have category Q as it is Project stock category. The account assignment should be P.

What are the solutions offered by Oracle to handle length based products

We are on 11.5.10. Current version treats beams as each, we have 30 feet beams, 20 feet beams etc.
We do not want to set-up different items for each length of beam.
We need ability to tell we have 10 pieces of 26 feet beams in inventory.
Currently we can only tell we have 260 feet of beams.
Current solution treats it discretley. We need ability to sell length based items, receive length based items, do inventory management based on length based items.
a) What are the solutions offered by Oracle in latest releases for Length based products or for Mill products.
b) If there are any solutions offered by Oracle to handle length based or mill products, can these be back ported to Oracle 11.5.10?

Please do not create duplicate posts across the forums -- What are the solutions offered to handle length based or mill products?

Structure List for a Service Product ?

Hi,
If I maintain a Bill of Material for a Service Product, is it possible to view its components in the 'Structure List' of the Service Order ?
Situation is: Each Service Product represent a "Level of Repair" and only specific components are associated with that Service Product though the Serviceable Material may have several components (BOM).
Or how else can I associate allowable components to Service Product ?
Thanks.
Raj

Hello Janakiraman,
Generally for configuration , you cannot update the configuraton directly . There are no bapis in VC to do so. you have to update the configuration data via the Object itself. Service orders are objects with type PMSDO. There is unfortunately no bapi that will update configuration directly. I checked BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN but that doesnot have any input data for configuration. Configuration is stored via unique number PMSDO-CUOBJ. You can then take this value and check the data in txn CUTABLEINFO. Instance = CUOBJ in CUTABLEINFO. You will find the object key and number in this transaction .Eg
INSTANCE OBJECT-OBJECT_TYPE OBJECT-OBJECT_KEY
000000000000203448 PMSDO OR000004032826
To maintain the data , you can check to enhance this BAPI , Otherwise best way is to get the CUOBJ number and use VC function modules to update.
But you will neeed to create a Z program to do. You can find all the VC function as mentioned in the thread above.
Thanks

Production Order For Project with plant stock

Hi,
We have a scenario where in we are required to create a production order for a project.
But the material(raw material) is in a storage location and is a stock item. Even the header material is also a stock item and it to stored in the storage location.
But the order is to be created for Project and to be settled to the Project. Now the system is not allowing me to create the order.
The error is :
"Project does not allow make-to-order stock
Message no. CO746
Diagnosis
There is no project stock for the project.
To create a production order with reference to a WBS element the project must allow project stock to be maintained.
Procedure
You should select a project that allows project stock."
Now,
I don't want to have a project stock. How to go forward...
Regards
Pavan

Hi,
What is the strategy you are using. If you are using strategy 20, then chnage it to 40.
Also maintain individual/collective indicator to "1" - individual in MRP-4 view. So that when the order is created, the stock will be reserved as Q-project stock.
thanks and regards

How to retrieve material document no. based on production confirmation no.

Hi Friends,
I am retreiving the production confirmation number(PRTNR) thru bapi BAPI_REPMANCONF_CREATE_MTS. Based on that confirmation number I need to retrieve material document number (MBLNR)
Because multiple users can post finished goods from different locations at same time, I have to complusory retrieve the material document number based on confirmation number only. Tables MKPF and MSEG doesn't have confirmation number fields in them.
I would appreciate if anyone could suggest me good ideas.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Melih,
Thank you for your valuable response.
My BLPP table gets updated with material document as well as confirmation number.
When I test my FM directly, I get a confirmation number in my export. I don't get a material document number in my export parameter. But, BLPP gets updated with material document number as well as confirmation number.
But, if I debugg the FM with the same data I get the material document number as well as conf. no. populated in my export parameters.
This is what I have done:
Export parameters
MAT_DOC type BELNR_D
CONF type PRTNR
DATA: GS_BLPP               LIKE BLPP,
                      GV_MAT_DOC      TYPE BELNR_D.
CLEAR: GV_MAT_DOC, GS_BLPP.
    SELECT SINGLE * INTO GS_BLPP
                     FROM BLPP
                    WHERE PRTNR = CONF
                      AND PRTPS = '0001'.
    GV_MAT_DOC = L_BLPP-BELNR.
    MAT_DOC              = GV_MAT_DOC.
Please let me know if I have done something wrong.
Thanks.

Accounting for code based consumable material in SAP

Hi Experts,
Just a scenario I want to discuss with You all:
Earlier were using non-stock items (no material code,only text to procure materials) and projects were consuming it. Now, we are going to use material codes to procure non-stock items which now have master code for it now the requirement for this process is as below.
At the time of GRN system pick project G/L(Profit and loss account G/L ) with account assignment S (or Q ) and respective WBS
While transferring the left over project qty to another project ,accounting document is to be created .
Warehouse want to track to moved quantity as well from project to project and to own stock .
considering these requirement i m working on two logic.
Logic 1 .
I configured the material as value based material so that while doing GRN project WBS is debiting
and after consumption of partial material quantity, I am transferring the remaining cost of project to another project by t-code KB61N or KB11N where cost is moving from project to project .
now to show quantity movement i am developing one report which can show the quantity based on moved Price lets say if unit prince is 10 and 200 cost is transferring from project to project means 20 qty is moving in customized report .
Logic 2
With the help of BADI or some development a virtual storage location will be created on MIGO screen
and material will be fetched in this virtual storage location while doing GRN as a referance purpose
and the same location to be used during transferring material from project to project
let me know how far this logic and requirement is correct to code the consumable material and it is going to be codified for reporting purpose .
your earliest response will be appreciable .
Thanks in advance .

Hi Jurgan ,
scenario is like ,
earlier for these material , material record was not existing
but now business want to create material master for such consumable material for tracking purpose
and these codified material is to procured under WBC and profit and loss account G/L not inventory G/L (balance sheet G/l )
and to pick profit loss G/L i made material as valuate material only so that can populate accounting document while transferring value from project to project via KB61N or KB11N
now what value is transferring from project to project that will be picked in terms of quantity (unit value conversion to quantity ) in customized report
hope scenario is clear now ..let me know if any query you have to give your valuable inputs
Thanks

Material type for Project related

Hi ,
When creteing the material master we have which take "Material Type" if it related to project , i am perticular about construction and instaltion related business topic . Normally we take Raw material , semi finished material and finished material in case of manufactureing industry , in construction in

Hi
In projects also maximum Raw material is used. Usage of semifinished and finished material is minimum.
i am particular about construction and instaltion related business topic .
In construction industry raw material type is used.
Ex:
Cement, bricks etc...
Cement and bricks is a finished product for production industry, but this as RAW material for construction industry.

For a target based production creation of Number of planned orders reg

For a target based production, can anybody explain as to how the planned orders created/altered. The main question is the system generated planned orders can be altered, suppose the system generates 10 planned orders can we alter to 8 planned orders if so how?

Vachanala,
The way I understood "Target Based" production is that it is an MTS scenario and the Material is assigned with Planning strategy 11 in MRP3 view.
For this you need to PIR(Target) using transaction MD61 with requuirement type "BSF". Once this is done, you can run MRP using MD02 if for single material or run in background using MDBT transaction. Planned orders are created based on the target(PIR).
You can manually change the planned order dates or quantity in the change mode of the planned order, and system firms this planned order.
Hope this information helps...
Regards,
Prasobh

Newbie looking for maven-based web projects

I'm looking looking for maven-based web projects so I could learn how to orginize and configure code and configuration files respectively. Thx in advance.

Tones of good material exists at the Maven2 site:
http://maven.apache.org/
Another very good place where to find information:
http://www.sonatype.com/book/
To search for free jars (very useful)
http://www.mvnrepository.com/search.html
It is kind of difficult to start, but it worth the effort.
I cannot imagine to start a project without Maven + Continuum
