Material - quantity updating

In tcode OMS2, for each material type, we have options to select "Qty updating", "value updating" and so on.
If i select only "Qty updating" for a material type, does that mean, system is going to track only quantities for those materials and not the values? Does that mean that when we do any postings in the system there will no accounting document posted? Also wanted to confirm that there is no necessity to maintain the material price on the material master.
Thanks

Hi
1)Material tyep UNBW stand for non-valuavted material,no accounting data maintain in material master,therefore only be procured with account assigenemnt
2)Material type NLAG-stand for non stock material,neither quantity nor value is update for this material
If you dont want to update the Quantity and Value as well then go for text material instead of creating material master data.
By this you are not going to keep the material stock as well as valuation for that material

Query on material and quantity updation

I updated material and quantity updation for a particular material type and plant combination in development server. Before transpoting in transport request, when I View Cluster Maintenance: Data, I am able to see that in table T143M is also updated for some other plant and material types which I had not done in customising. Also note that for the entries in transport for all plant and material type combination other than intended one, there are no qunatity and value updating which had been activated. Can someone throw light as to whether is it a functional or techinal issue which is causing this?

Hi,
whenever your copping new material type from existing one it will copy all the setting ie screen reference , attributes and even quantity / value update also . so it will display like that .

Contract updation for Delivered material quantity

Hi All,
I have a problem related, contract and release order updating with reference to delivered material quantity.
for example let's say contract is created for 1000 units of material A, after that sales order with reference to contract is created for 500 units and delivery is created for 300 units then remaining order quantity cannot be delivered as customer master is maintained so.
Now I want to create sales order for 700 units of 'A' but system is not allowing to do so saying the 500 units are already referenced.
If i use rejection reason in sales order still system is not allowing to create a new sales order with 700 units.
How to solve this issue?
Please Help
Thanks and regards
Amit

Hi Manam,
thank you very much for your immediate reply.
But the issue is a sales order will have only one delivery as the sales order contains freight amount at header level which helps calculate the excise duties as the prices quoted to customer include freight and duties.
So now is that possible to update the delivered quantity at contract level so that undelivered quantity can be referenced to create another sales order and can be delivered.
To describe the process:
A contract will be created, a sales order will be created for required delivery quantity then delivery will be created. In case due to some problems if delivery quantity is less than sales order then the undelivered quantity will be getting updated in sales order. and the sales order undelivered quantity will be rejected and the contract will get updated.
Please help.

Amit

Does it meant:
2 u2013 When I did a goods receipt into the system, there will no stock quantity update in display in the MMBE, MB52 (i.e. not inventorized)?
3 u2013 Does it means the tmaterial create will be inventorized?
4 u2013 the stock quantity will not be capture in the system but only the value will show in the book?
This a bit confuse topic.
Thanks.

GR for non valuated material/ no quantity update

Good Morning, I wonder if someone can clarify if SAP is performing as expected in the following scenario:
I have one company code.
Valuation level is set to plant.
There are two plants attached to the company code.
I have a non valuated material that is set to quantity update in one plant but not in the other.
I have created a PO with account assignment for the non valuated material in the plant where quanity updating is switched off.
When I try carry out a GR in MIGO or MB01 it is forcing a storage location even though the material in that plant is set to no quantity update.
This is not what I expected but does anyone know if this is working correclty and why?
Thanks in advance.
Andy Rushforth

Hi,
If Company B raises the PO to Vendor but the material is delivered to Company A.
Here in this case you need to do the GR in MIGO for the non valuated material to Company B using the PO. But stock will not available in the stores as it will directly post to the consumption to cost centres. Then you have to do 202 mvt type in MB1A for the same cost centre to update the stock in Company B.
Then you need to create the STO inter company then you need to transfer the stock from Company B to Company A. This is actually a long process and involves correct monitoring to stream line process.
Why don't you raise the PO in Company A to Supplier instead of Company B.

Prevent quantity updating during Goods Receipt

Hi,
We have a particular requirement for a type of subcontracting process (not the standard SAP subcontracting) as mentioned below.
We create a Purchase Order for a material (without a standard cost) and giving an account assignment category in the PO. The Net price mentioned in the PO is the processing charges for the vendor (service charges). It does not indicate price for the material.
When we receive the finished material from the vendor, we perform a Goods receipt. The stock gets updated and accounting documents are created.
Our requirement is to stop this quantity updating during Goods Receipt. But, at the same time, we would like the accounting documents to be created as we need to pay the vendor.
Is there any way of achieving this?
Pl let me know. Any inputs would be appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for the response!
I understand that in the standard process, the parent item inforecord takes care of the processing charges. But this is process that has been customized differently as the client has SAP as well as legacy systems talking to each other.
Turning off the qty updating at the material type level will turn it off for all purchase orders created for the material at that particular plant which is something we would like to avoid.
We would basically like to turn it off for particular purchase order type. The reason for turning it off is that after the GR is done, there is a separate process that comes from the legacy system and updates the same quantity of finished product and also posts the consumption of components.
So, our basic requirement is , is it possible to turn off qty updating for the GR of a particular purchase order document type and yet create accounting document. Material is not a valuated material and has a standard cost zero.
Any inputs in this regard will be helpful.

Material quantity calcuation

Hello all ,
I am working with pharmacutical company as SAP support consultant , I want to learn Material quantity calculation , i read SAP library but stil not clear about it can anybody pls explain?
Waiting for reply.

Perna Verma

Hi Prema,
MQC is concept which used in pharma Industry perticular formulation ( Tablet Manufacturing ). In this scenario API ( Active pharma ingradient) is a basic raw material which is used along with some other component.
API qty is used on basis assay or purity basis & may be other component called as filler material.
Qty filler material is calculated by system on basis of result of yuor API material so you need to assign formula to filler material .
So that when you determine batch in process order in that case system will calculate filler qty on basis of result of batch of API.( Tour API may have rdifferent results 98.00% or 99% )
Pharma people calculates filler qty on basis of result of API.
To implement this you need to update your master data .
You need to create here Class charecteristic ( CT04) then assign this charecteristic to Class CL02 .This class you need to assign to material say API ,then additional data of material master give alternative unit of measure 98 KG =100KGA .in same additional data praportion data field data to filled ,
IN QM you need to assign same class charecteriastic to MIC QS23
Finally formula has to assign in recipe where this API material & filler material being used
This is tatally SAP standard functionality .
For any further clarification please revert me back

OMS2 - quantity update vs. value update

Hello MM experts,
Could anyone please explain the difference between quantity update vs. value update - which is selected in what scenario.
We have a new material with 3050 val. class and VERP as item category group. When we created PO, it gave us error as to 'Account Assignment Mandatory'. So I selected quantity update in OMS2 for VERP material type. However, it still gave the error. So, I selected the 'value update'. Now the PO was created successfully. I did not select value initially, since it wasn't selected for any other material type/plant.
Please explain the reason.
Thank you.

Hi Munair,
from accounting perspective any material can be purchased for either STOCK or for CONSUMPTION
- STOCK implies that material will be kept in inventory and will be managed on Qty and Value basis ( you can see stock qty and value in material master accounting view and in reports like MB52) and subsequent issue will generate an account posting
- CONSUMPTION means that material's purchase value will be consumed at the time of purchase.
for items which we always want to be consumed at the time of purchase e.g. factory consumable or small items like stationary etc. where we don't want to track them on value basis in accounting we need to put VALUE update as ' blank'
this will ensure that material can't be brought in to inventory and hence will always ask for account assignment because system wants to know that if its for consumption than against what it will be consumed e.g. cost centre / internal order
it will allow to progress of you use an account assignment and put a cost centre against it.
In your case some companies wants to track packaging on a value basis ( so require value update as X in OMS2)
for others if packaging is too small in terms of value than they prefer not to track this is accounting and somark value update as 'blank' in OMS2)
Hope this clears

Batch determination issue in process order Material quantity calculation

Dear Gurus,
We are facing issue in auto batch determination in process order (Material quantity calculation ).
eg Material X is active material 200 KIA used in BOM as
10 X   200 KIA
20 Y   10           Filler
30 Z
40 X   200 KIA
50 Y
60 Z
We select line item 10 and 40 and do Batch determination system proposes 2 batches for line item 10 as Batch A and B
and for line 40 again Batch A (with 0.01 KIA) and batch B proposed which is wrong.
For line Item 10 Batch A and B
For line Item 40 Batch B and C or as per FIFO logic.
As Batch A should be consumed in Line item 10 then it proposed Batch B and so on....
We have already maintain data in COB1.
Can any body explain what is wrong in determination.

Material Quantity difference document line item for HU

Dear Experts,
When I try to clear differences in LI21, i get the error message as above.
Error Message : 'Material Quantity difference document line item for HU'
Any idea why this error occurs?
Regards,
Shetty

Hello Shetty,
It may be due to some stock inconsistency. You may try iin case of a non HU managed storage location HU to run LX23 and it can fix discrepancy overwrting MM-IM with LE-WM data. But if it is a HU managed then you can run HUDIFF transaction but only to see if there is stock differences not to fix anything, usually SAP Support (Development Support) does that job.
Have a nice day !!

Quantity updates in return order from referenced Invoice

Dear Gurus,
I have set the return sales order creation with the reference of a Invoice document. Therefore when i make the return order i enter the invoice number into the reference and then make the changes with quantity as per the requirement. suppose in invoice I have 5 quantity and in the return order I make it 2 so return of 2 will take place, then i will do PGR for quantity 2 with the reference of return order and then the credit for return upto this its working fine. But now if I want make the second return order with reference of same Invoice system will give me pop up saying that the return anf credit of quantity 2 has already done for so and so item. Then if I enter in the return sales order in the order quantity I should see 3 quantity only as the return and credit of 2 quantity already took place but here the quantity in sales order is not getting change and it is appearing 5.
I dont know where the mistake? I check the copy control also for ZTAN (invoice) to ZREN (Return) it is as follows.
Copying Reqt - 303
DataT - 153
DataT - 104
DataT - 004
Pricing type - D
Update Doc Flow - X
and remaining all fields are blank
Copy Control at header level ZIF2 to ZIRE
Copying Reqt - 021
DataT - 052
DataT - 103
DataT - 003
Copy Item Number - Checked
Complete reference - Unchecked
Please help me how this quantity update will happen automatically?
Regards,
Sanjay

Hello Dear Sanjay;
I completely understand your requirement, but this is how the SAP system works. I had already this needs and actually the system doesn't have control like this. Is this a bug ? Maybe....
We were forced to development a Z program or new routine to treat this control.
The system send a simple message including quantities, but internally the function module allow to do a return orders, for instance, how many times as you want.....
I hope you can understand the limitation.
