Material specific shipping text???

Hello Friends
Is there any way to have shipping instructions print out that are specific to certain materials? I don't want to maintain this text in Sale text tab in material master because we are allready using this field to print on order acknowledgement, whereas shipping instruction for the particular material should print only on delivery papers, appreciate if you could please advice how I can meet this requirement. This text would be specific to a material "X", so everytime material "X" is used then shipping instruction should automatically populate on delivery papers.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Mike - As it appears you have been a member of the SDN community for a couple of years I assume that you have access to OSS Notes. Take a look at Notes 112065 and 30286. In the 'Additional Data' of the material you have a number of tabs. The first is called 'Descriptions'. It has a language assigned to it, but beneath it you can assign any other languages with the corresponding descriptions against it e.g 'Z1'...
If that isn't sufficient then you may have to judiciously use one of the other text tabs in there e.g. Basic text tab. Same thing applies, just using your 'Z1" custom language. To extract it just get your ABAPer to use the READ_TEXT function within the form using the material number, the language (Z1), the Text ID ('GRUN' - for basic data text) and the Text Object (MATERIAL).
I trust this will resolve your issue.
Cheers,
Paul...

Material Specific Field in Sales order....

Hi Experts,
Is there any possibilities of maintaining material specific characters at sales order item level?...
For example if we want store the Materials character as A in sales order does standard SAP supports it?......
Thanks in advance......

Hi,
Can you let us know the funda behind the character you are using to better understand and help you.
One way is as suggested earlier. or you can use the VD51 if you are not using it right now..
Let us know.

Material specific status in material master

Hi,
We have a material A. in the material master for A, in the basic data ,the "X plant mat status is Z4 which means material discontinued. In the sales org tab for the same material, the "dis chain specific status" is Z1 which also means material under discontinuation.
But the issue is we are able to create and save sales order for material A.
i would like to know what is the issue. the system should not allow to create sales order. Also where are these material specific status configured and where is the control to block the sales order based on these material status.
regds

the creation of sales order is not controlled with a material status, it is only controlled with customizing of sales status.
The sales status can be defined in IMG > Logistics general > material master > setting for central fields > sales relevant data > define sales status.

Material specific value contract

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have a problem while creating material specific value contract WK2. After creating the value contract for INR 50000 and doing the neccessary settings in item category WKN, i created a relaease order with value as INR 500.
I can see the release order in the documnet flow of the contract, but in the contract overview screen value released is not reflecting, which i am expecting as 50000-500 = 49500. So the value released should reflect as INR 500.
Please correct me if i am wrong.

Material specific credit

hai everybody,
Can we set Material specific credit limit in sd, do we have that option in standard?
Can we do automatic brand/wise invoicing to the customer?

Hi,
Material specific credit limit is not possible in standard SAP.
What you can do is group the similar material in one division and maintain credit limit based on Sales area.
Sales org +Dist Cha +Division.
By the way what is brand wise invoicing ?
You can schedule invoice creation program anyway

QM workcenter with material specification

Hi there ,
I am using the material spec for a material to inspect. Can anyone please suggest me that where can I maintain the QM workcenter for it as we are not using the inspection plan
Regards
Kaushik

Hi.
However, since you cannot predefine work centers in the material specification, but the inspection specifications are defined in the material specification, you must proceed as follows:
a)You create a material specification with master inspection characteristics.
b)You create a dummy inspection plan that only contains one operation with one work center.
c)In the inspection setup (Quality Management view of the material master), set the indicators Insp. with task list and Insp. with mat spec

Material specification and Inspection plan - Task list usage

Dear Friends,
In inspection type Task list usage is assigned
For Example
inspection type 01 - usage - 03
inspection type 05 - usage - 05
inspection type 06 - usage - 07
inspection type 10 - usage - 06
In my scenario i want to use all the above inspection type for a product
if i use mateial specification there is no any problem with my Task list usage
If suppose i use inspection plan do i need to create different inspection plan with different usage
or is it possible to create one inspection plan with all the above usage
what about universal usage 03 can i use it
i try to use but system does not triggering inspection lot
can any one Suggest some ideas
Many Thanks & Regards
Raj

Hi Raju,
All of first pls understand the concept of Task list and specification.
If you need to inspection any material in very systematic manner, where you will have well segregated operations where the appropriate Work Centers will be bind and under that hierarchy MIC will be attached. The inspection will be governed by some inspection points. And according the the same Samples will be calculated. When you wanna go with all these functionality then you must have to use Task list (Inspection plan).
And if you don't wish to have these functions then simply go with the material specification.
Now it comes the actual query about task list usage.
If there is a common inspection plan is supposed to be used for all the inspection types for your material then you can prepare only one inspection plan, put ant of the Usage to it it can be 05 or 03 universal. But what you have to do is,
Go to SPRO->Quality Management->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Maintain Inspection Types Execute and set the Task list usage as the same it is set in the inspection plan for all those Inspection types for which that common inspection plan is supposed to be used.
Note:- There is no any link between inspection lot creation and task list usage of inspection plan.

QM Material specification with inspection plan

Hello,
I'm trying to setup QM material spec with inspection plan and it doesn't work.
I setup material master (With insp plant and with material spec).
I Created a characteristic that I used in my inspection plan and maintained the characteristic in the material specification.
When I create an inspection lot (89), the characteristic is always inserted at the end instead of redefining my specifications into the pre-defined characteristic.
Have I missed something?
Ghislain

As per our business scenario for Pharmaceutical we use Inspection with attached MIC with Sampling and Sample drawing Procedure, Sampling scheme to check the Quality of RM/PM/FP, can u give me some idea regarding;
1) Material Specificaton in Inspection plan
2) Reference Operation set with its use.
3) Dynamic Modification Rule
As for pharma we do;
1) Create MIC
2) Create Inspection plan
3) Attaching the MIC to an Inspection plan with sampling and sample drawing procedure
4) Attacing an Inspection Plan to an Inspection Lot
5) Result Recording and Usage Decision of Inspection lot for
In Automotive and othe Process Industry how the Dynamic modification rule,reference operation set, material specification flow.

How to set UOM in the material Specification Section of Trade?

Dear,
When I select UOM in the material Specification Section of Trade, I cannot find Volume UOM as ml , L...
How Can I add some UOM Item for this Qty column? Because some beverage products use volume UOM.
Thanks

Anytime you consume a material spec (in a trade or a formulation spec lets say) the UOM list is defined by a few things:
1. Standard Mass Listing is always included
2. Volume UOMs appear if density is defined on the material specification
3. Additional "Other" UOMs will appear if defined in the Available UOM > UOM Conversions Grid
There is a strict UOM configuration available that allows you to restrict which UOMs are used per specification. It this is turned on then only the UOMs listed in the Available UOMs section will appear in the drop down.
Hope this helps,
Kelly

Why do we need material specification for transfering results to class char.

Hi,
Can you guys tell me why do we need to create material specification if we want to transfer quality inspection results to a batch class?
Basically I have done the following:
-Create Class Characteristic
-Assign the Class Characteristic to a batch class
-Link Class Char. to MIC
-Assign MIC to an Inspection Plan
-Post GR, batch and inspection lot are created automatically
-Record Results for inspection Lot
-Make UD for Inspection Lot
The result is not transferred to batch class, then I create material specification with the MIC assigned, the results can be transferred. But why?
Best regards
Danny

Hello Danny,
This is a standard program, which checks for this indicator at the time of inspection lot completion.
F1- help gives satisfactory explanation
Batch Valuation Possible Without Specification
Use
If you set this indicator, a link between the master inspection
characteristics and the class characteristics for the batch class must exist
when an inspection lot is created, for batch valuation to occur when the usage
decision or inspection point valuation is made. A link within the material
specification is not required.
If you do not set this indicator, batch valuation only occurs when the
usage decision or inspection point valuation is made, if a link using the
material specification exists between the master inspection characteristics and
the class characteristics for the batch class. In this way, you can control on a
material-dependent basis whether the batch characteristics are valuated based on
the inspection results.
Amol.
Message was edited by: Amol Manave : Main purpose is you can control whether Batch characteristics should be valuated based on results or not for particular material. If you set this indicator then batch characteristics will be valuated for all materials and in opposite case Batch characteristics will be valuated for only materials for which Material Specification exists.

BOM Material as a text item.

Hi All,
Here the below is the requirement.
Warranty will be created as a line item and defaulted in the Contract document.
A Bill of Material (BOM) should be created for every License material with a Warranty material. A Bill of Material would be used to combine two or more materials. When the License material is entered the system would automatically populate the Warranty material as a text item in the contract line item. So that user can maintain the start date and end date of the warranty for that particular item.
Please help me to achieve this requirement and let me know if you need more further information.
Thanks

hi,
check the packing material type settings in SPRO --> Logistics.
Check for the delivery type / Delivery item category..... you can see the packing with item generation setting.

RF Queue for a specific Shipping Point ...... Is it possibe?

Hi,
We have around 10 doors and 10 shipping points. Transfer orders created for all the outbound deliveries are directed to an RF queue for picking.
Now, we have a specific Shipping Point which we want to seperate out for picking and we want the transfer orders to go to a different queue.
How can this be achieved?
Few clues which might work out are :
1) If we can somehow link that shipping point to a door, then we can create a queue for that door. But how can we link a shipping point to a door?
2) If we create a new storage type and direct our picking to the new storage type. Is it possible? how?
Any other suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Material specification Vs Task list in QM

hi,
Can any one pls explain on which instance i need to use material specification for the material.
or what is the prime differance or advantage in using Material spec over task list. especially for GR inspection of external procured components...
Need to justify the use task list/ material spec to client.....
Thanks in advance.
regards
Saran

hi saravanan,
You can inspect a material based on material specification or by task list.
Material Specificatin is used at client level
if the client has same type of checking for all the material across the plant then we can go by material specifaction.
If they have different parameters to check then we have to go by task list only.
there are many advantages and disadvantages in both the cases.
please go thru this link .
it will be helpful to you.
