Material getting set for Batch Management in O/B delivery

Hi Folks,
For a material which is not batch managed, I created an outbound delivery.
For some reason, the material is getting set as 'BatchManagement' even though the Batch Management indicator is not set.
Due to this PGI is not possible.
Any thoughts on why the 'Batch Management' indicator has been set and how to resolve this?
Regards,

Hi Jürgen ,
I am unable to replicate this problem in Q. Its occuring only in P while doing a goods issue.
Message is
"The batches are not defined for delivery item XXXXXX".
As I said earlier, we have not set the batch management check box in MM.
However the outbound delivery has the batch management check box selected .
Anything I missed to check? Q is almost identical to P. But still issue is only in P.
Regards,

QM In-Process Inspection for Batch Managed Material

Hi,
I have a issue related to UD of In-Process inspection for batch managed material. The production process is discrete manufacting for a cold rolling mill. A production order can have mutiple coils as per the production amount. To track the individual coil , batch management has ben activated. We have both in-process as well as inspection after production here.
For inspection after production we are fine as we are doing partial confirmation after every coil and have separate inspection lot having different batch number.
But for in-process I can have only one inspection lot for the production order (created on release of the production order). I can do the result recording but while trying to do UD u2013 it is asking for a batch number as the material is batch managed. W/o entering the batch number system is not allowing me to do the UD.
Is there any solution/work around of this problem.
-Regards
ashim

Hi Ashim,
you raised a very good question? i am helpless here to execute same scenario,
but i disussed with my QM guy here, he said, once the material is batch managed then it has to ahve batch in UD.
so i discussed ur case, which is very much valid for heavy ind like cement and all,
so what i suggest, u create a dummy batch in the UD for in process (no inventory posting)
and at confimation give ur usual batch (if system propose the dummy batch which u give in the UD for inprocess, try to change there--- i hope it should allow)
i would really like to here answer from u for this.
try to do as suggested, and let me know the results.

Note 533276 - Setting the batch management requirement indicator

Hi;
we have found an oss note for setting the batch management requirement
indicator.. but the program mentioned in oss note does't exist in the
attachement part.. we urgently need your help..
how can we find program RVBCONVMAT2BM?
Note 533276 - Setting the batch management requirement indicator
Solution
Here, the standard procedure is to clear stocks of the current and the previous period as well as to complete the open documents. Note 30656 provides further information about this.
Alternatively, in the case of a large data or document volume, you can use a conversion report from the batch development that sets the batch management requirement indicator without the necessity of manual preliminary works such as the posting of the stocks or the completion of open documents.
We have developed the main features of this report, but it must be adjusted to individual business processes in a customer project that is subject to charges.
If you require further information about functions of this tool or about running such a customer project, you can send an e-mail to the consulting department ([email protected]).

Hi,
You also need to check for open sales order, open production orders, open WM transfer orders and open deliveries. These documents needs to be closed/completed.
Check OSS notes 533276 - Setting the batch management requirement indicator.
Following is the details of this notes;
Summary
Symptom
The attempt to set the batch management requirement indicator for a
material in the material master record maintenance fails because there are
stocks or documents that are not completed such as production orders, sales

Specific Identification Cost for batch managed items (Follow-Up from P2P)

Specific Identification Cost method is used for serial and batch managed item. Using this method, the outbound cost of such items would be the original cost of specific goods, which can be determined according to the serial or batch number of that item.
Business One allows the user to receive batch managed items with a batch number that already exists in the DB. Its possible that the received quantity is added to on-hand quantity in the warehouse. In such case, the quantity on-hand of that batch and the received quantity may have different costs.
What should be the system behavior in such case:
1. Block receipts to the same batch with different costs.
2. Write the difference to a price difference account, as done in Standard Cost method.
3. Manage the batch cost with Moving Average method.
This thread is continuation from 'Specific Identification Cost for batch managed Items' <a href="http://p2p.sap.com/businessoneforum?type=join&login=1&uid=41FB661A76CED536C825C4E2B6FF4397&cid=91&go=z37225">discussion</a> in P2P SAP Business One Forum (Product Development Collaboration).
Previous discussion on P2P is summarized in the attached file.

Hi Peter,
This is a very important functionality that you are describing here. For example, in the Steel industry, it could be extremely useful to cost by batch or serial number.
If you receive a batch that already exists in the system and if the costing method for the product is moving average, then teh cost of the batch should be calculated based on the moving average as well.
If the costing method is standard, then the cost should go in a variance account.
If the costing method is FIFO, then it is a getting trickier...

How to set up Batch Management and stock determination ?

Our client deals in various food articles and wish to use batch management and shelf life functionality.
Details are
While doing the goods receipt, batch no. as supplied by vendor will be entered. There is no requirement of batch no. generation. Thus batch no. as supplied by vendor will be used for identifying the stock. It will be also having fix shelf life and will be entered while doing the goods receipt. Now at the time of goods issue for consumption, or stock transfer to other plant system should propose the batch no. for material which will be having earliest expiry date (For ex. on 15.01.2010 we receive the goods with batch no ABC having expiry date as 31.03.2010 and we receive another lot on 20.01.2010 with batch no. XYZ having expiry date on 25.03.2010, then while doing the goods issue for consumption or stock transfer, system should propose the lot with batch no. XYZ and not ABC). How to achieve this?
As I am new to batch management please provide detail configuration steps for batch management and stock determination. We are not using warehouse management.
Thanks in advance,

ATP check for batch managed products

Hello All,
I have a requirement for ATP check for batch managed products and would be glad if someone can help me on that. One of the characteristics on my product is expiry date. Business wants to restricts confirming products which has an expiry date of less than 90 days for orders outside the country. How can we achieve that?

Hello
You can try with activating Shelf Life Expiration Date (SLED).
For config, check SPRO - Logistice General - Batch master - SLED
Then finally setup Customer Exit to calculate/check the SLED.
Exit EXIT_SAPLMHD1_001 for enhancement SAPLMHD1.
Further, you can refer following SDN thread for reference/understanding:
- SLED by customer/ material

Batch Management Indicator not getting set for material master

Hi,
In one of the material we need to mark the Batch Management Indicator in Material MAster. We had removed all the stocks from the material. But still we are getting error, Stock exists for the material in Plant XXX and Sloc YYY.
I checked in MARD table and MMBE that for this maaterial there are no stock for said Sloca and Plant.
One thing which I noticed in the Material Master and MARDH table that there exists some stock in Previous persiod for the said Sloc and Plant.
Need to know is this error is due to stock shown in previous period. Why system is checking the previous period stock.
How can we resolve our issue and check this Indicator.
Please let me know as earliest as possible.
Thanks

Hi,
Refer OSS Note 30656 - Change base unit of measure/batch mngt requirement
Following are the details of this note;
Symptom
When maintaining a material master record, you change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator or the valuation category. The system then tells you that this change is not possible since stocks still exist. However, no stocks are shown for the material in the stock overview.
Reason and Prerequisites
The message that stocks still exist refers not only to stocks in the current period, but also to stocks in the previous period.
The reason for checking previous period stocks is that postings can also be made to the previous period when entering goods movements. This would result in inconsistencies if the base unit of measure had meanwhile been changed.
Solution
Please check whether stocks still exist for the previous period by displaying, for example, the plant stock view or storage location stock view of the material. You do this by selecting "Extras -> Previous period -> Prev. pd SLoc. stock or Prev. pd plant stock".
If previous period stocks exist, you can make a withdrawal posting as follows:
1. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period stock are identical.
2. Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
You can now try again to change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator.
Since the posting of the previous period values to zero is identical with posting to the stocks of the current period, you should reverse the above stock postings (i.e. the stock from the previous period should be booked in again) to make sure that the stock values from the previous and the current periods correspond to the state before the change. Please note, however, that the postings are then carried out using the changed master data from the current period (e.g. account determination, etc.)

MB1C LSMW Recording fails with missing Prod Date for Batch Managed Material

An LSMW recording for transaction MB1C that was batch managed was successfully recorded. This included the entry of the Production Date before pressing enter to post the Good Receipts. However, when the transaction was executed, the error came back, "Enter the date of production". In looking at the screen in the lsmw batch results, it shows the date in the production date field.
I also tried to create the recording in the Transaction Recorder (trancode SHDB), and process the recording simulating the background mode and got the same results.
Any ideas why it seems to be ignoring the production date? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Inventory Count for Batch Managed materials - Plant, S.Loc and Batch Wise

Hi.,
In the company's current scenario, the printing of batch managed materials are scheduled under 3 Job names.
1. First job determines the materials/batches that need to be created today using Program RM07ICN1
2. Second Job Processes the BDC Session created by Program RM07ICN1 using Program: RSBDCSUB
3. Third Job prints the Inventory tickts at the appropriate Storage location using Program: RM07IDRU
Each Job has its own variant.
The Variant for SL.No 1 is defined w.r.t
i. Material Type : Two Material types have been defined
ii. Under selection variable, GIDAT ( Planned count date and GBDAT are flagged.
Current Analysis:
A. The inventory documents get printed with Materials as per the cycle counting indicators defined which govern which material has to be currently counted.
B. Inventory documents are generated for all materials in all the plants and in all the storage locations
C. Batches for a material number may print on different cycle count documents throughout the year.
Customer requirement:
The inventory documents to print on basis of
1. Material, Plant and S.Loc.
This would help in identifying the batches which are currently being counted as well.
2. Customers requirement is to ensure that all batches are accounted for and will identify any overage of batches since in the current process, they are never reviewed as a whole.
QUESTION:
1. How to configure the Customer requriement.
2. How to configure the Variant/s, if thats the place the configuration has to be done to satisfy the customer.
3. How to activate the Variant in SE37 after definition in the Step Indicator. Does it activate on execution?
When i run the Program using SE38 , maintaining options in the Screen ( giving Material, Plant and S.loc), i get the desired list (Batches w.r.t Material,plant.S.Loc). But there is a list of over 150 Batch managed materials and it would not be physically possible to maintain the variant for each each Material,plant,S.loc wise.
Is there a way to configure the customer requirement/s.
Any and all help is much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Mahesh,
Customer requrirement is specific, they want a list of Inventory Documents to be generated on basis of Material in each Plant-S.Loc batch wise.
Then you need to define multiple varinat for the program.
(a) If i am giving two variants in the same Program name RM07ICN1, how to execute one after after in sequence.
In testing, I have defined in the " Step", Progran RM07ICN1 with one variant and Program RM07ICN1 with another Variant. But on execution of Program RM07ICN1 thru SE38, the screen defined latter ( second variant screen data ) is displayed.
You need to define several steps in SM36 transaction for the program using each variant. SE38 you can use only to save your variant data so later you can use this variant in SM36.
Once you schedule the job with SM36 and release it then it will automatically execute this job as per your criteria (timeline)
Hope this helps.
Regards
Arif Mansuri

BADI - WORKORDER_GOODSMVT - check for BATCH management

Hi there,
I have implemented WORKORDER_GOODSMVT BADI (Backflush method) to fill the batch number with a default value for a given plant.
This is working fine.
However, I only want to fill this if the Material in the Production Order is "batch managed" (at the moment it's happening for all materials in the Prod. Order ). This indicator field does not appear to be available in the structures of the BADI.
If I look in CO02 for the order, I can see a column called BATCH which is filled with an 'X' in certain cases.
An F1 on the screen field says that it is 'RESBD-SPLKZ'
However, if I check RESB table (or read RESBD using a function module) , this SPLKZ field is always blank for the given order.
Does anyone have an idea why this is, or where I can find a proper "Batch Indicator" field?
All suggestions appreciated.
I have searched forums and can't find relevant solution.
Thanks,
David.

Hi Bruce,
I solved the problem by going to MARC table with material and plant, and checking field MARC-XCHPF ('Batch management requirement indicator').
if this field was set to 'X', I made my change to the CHARG field.
Hopefully this helps you.
this is from a long time ago, I should have updated the post sooner - will mark as solved now.
thanks,
David

Does SAP Provide any standard conversion program for Batch Managment activa

Hi,
An idea if SAP Provides any standard program to conversion of non batch managed material to batch managed material in a productive SAP Environment and close open documents,
It would be great help if somebody can reply to these queries.
Thanks in advance

Bijaya Pradhan

Hi
Use the same Driver program RIPROV00 which is used as Script driver program to fire the output from smartforms also
Only thing is little bit you have to modify the program such that it triggers the smartform instead of Script.
I think there is no smartform driver program for this IW21.
see some standard SF driver program like RLE_DELNOTE and
modify it and use it.

Physical Inventory & Cycle Couting for Batch Managed Materials

Hi Friends, pls help me on this scenario
Physical Inventory
For a Batch Managed Materials we have hundreds materials and thousands of batches (each batch is equally imp)
So the first step would be
Create the documents with MI31 Batch Input session
Post the count with MI34 Batch Input Session
See the difference in MI37
MIDO we get to c the physical inventory overview.
correct me if i am wrong
Cycle Count
This is a seasonal Business and ABC analysis based on requirements n Consumption doesn't work for this process. Is there any way that we can configure the system in SAP which has the ability to fulfill the following scenario.
They shud be able to select a % of materials from the storage for every month and that way they shud finish counting all of them at the end of their season. Not based on any criteria, just a part of materials ...
hope i am clear on the requirement..please suggest me something
thanks

No, it will not match, it will create its own document in background.
Why do you have one created if you dont want to do a selection ?
You cannot create a document for 1000 materials and then only count 30.
You either create a document for 30 and count 30 and enter it with MI04, or you dont create a document with SAP, count based on any other paperwork and enter the count as I said with MI09.
