Material type PIPE in BOM

Dear Gurus,
I am using pipeliene material as the component in semifinished assy. When I run the costing for the semifinished assy ity is giving error ""No price could be determined for material/batch XXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ plantXXXX
Message no. CK465""
The material type for pipeline item in PIPE.
What should be the item category for the PIPE materil in BOM of Semifinished product.
How the consumption for the PIPE material will update during the backflush.
Thanks and regards
Murugesan

Dear,
If you go to OMS2 select the materail type PIPE you will found it is not value and quantity updating.
You can enter a pipeline withdrawal for an order or for a cost center. Pipeline withdrawals differ from other goods movements in that they are entered with the special stock indicator P.
The withdrawal is valuated at the price defined in the pipeline info record.

Procurement Cycle of material type "PIPE"

Hi Gurus ,
Can you please explain the purchase Cycle (Order to Invoicing Cycle ) of the material type "PIPE".I belive that
Purchase Orders are not created for the same.
Thanks,
Tausif

Hi,
The concept of Pipeline material is that it is always available e.g. ga, electric, water etc. The price is agreed with the vendor suppose. Therefore, you don't have a PO. BUT you need to have a Pipeline Ifo record for the cost price.
Now, whenever you withdraw the Pipeline material (Movt type 201 P in Tcode MB1A) the system goes and pick the cost price from the Pipeline info record (ME11 or ME12).
For settlement of pipeline use Tcode MRKO because in pipline scenario there is no invoice receipt.
Hope this helps.

List of Material in BOM excluding semi finished goods or any material type

We want to take out the list of components used in BOM or can we exclude any material type while displaying BOM.
Is there any TCODE available for this?
thanks
harish

Hello Harish,
I think this is possible from user specific settings OS29. You can select the "sub assemblies""if the BOM contains sub-assembly A-A as a component. The components of this sub-assembly are K-1 and K-2.
If you set this indicator, the summarized BOM shows the data of sub-assembly A-A and its components K-1 and K-2.
If you do notset this indicator, only components K-1 and K-2 are shown.
If helpful rewards your points.

Shall i restrict CS01, CS02 by Material type wise

Dear all Gurus,
Please help me out to restrict the CS01 & CS02 by material type wise.
Thanks in Advance
pabale

Dear Mr. Devendra,
Please let me know the configuration in details becoz i want to restrict the user for not to change the HALB TYPE BOM in CS02 but in case of FERT type he can change.
e.g.
BOM Creation user has to rights to create / change the BOM of material type FERT.
BOM Creation user has to rights to create / but no change authority the BOM of material type HALB.Change rights we have to assign to authority.
Hope from you positive feed back and thanks for immediate respond to both.

Material type for BOM that should not create production order

Hello all,
We have following situation in our company:
We ship few products say for e.g A,B,C which are part of higer level BOM for product M1 to the customer, before the actual product M1 is shipped.Currently these ship-a-head products(A,B,C) is also part of BOM for M1.
We need to combine these ship-a-head products A,B,C as one product M2 (thinking of a BOM) and ship that M2 to customer before M1 is shipped.
In that case what could be the material type for product M2 so that MRP won't create any Production orders for M2.
Also wondering Is there any other way, other than creating a BOM that could combine products A,B and C and ship to customer a-head of time.
Thanks,
Sre

Hi,
Please create BOM for Material M2 by using usage other than production..

Is there a user exit to restrict BOM change and display using material type?

Hi Gurus,
There’s a need to limit access to BOMs on a per material type however the client does not want to use the functionality of "BOM Authorization Group" in BOM header details.
Do we have a user exit that can satisfy the said requirement?
Thanks,
Mae

Hi
Restriction to Changes of BOM will have better control using authorization object .Go to PFCG with your basis guy and try to explore the objects
You can use C_AENR_BGR object to restrict.
Otherwise , try apply BADI BOM_UPDATE

Material types in material master

Hi ,
What is the material type do we require in handling CS scenario?
Is it necessary to create BOM's for all the equipment?
Please respond
Thanks and Regards
Ashish

hi
1) A grouping together of materials with the same basic attributes such as raw materials, semifinished products, or finished products.
All materials must be assigned to a material type which determines:
Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose such as a configurable material or process material
Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally
The number range from which the material number is drawn
Which screens appear and in what sequence
Which user department data you may enter
What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured in-house or procured externally, or both.

Material Types in Multy-Company Structure

Hello, experts,
We are implementing SAP ERP in a multy-company structure. Seven different company codes will be definied in the same SAP client. Three of these companies (A, B and C) produce similar machines. Another company (D) produces components for the machines that the other three companies (A, B and C) produce. Two of the companies (E and F) are pure wholesalers. They buy materials from the other companies (A, B, C and D) and sell them to external customers.
Another example:
Material X is a component which company D produces. So for company D this is a finished product (FERT). The same material is used as a component in the BOM of material Y, which companies A, B and C produce. So, for companies A, B and C material X is a raw material (ROH) and material Y is a finished product (FERT). Companies E and F buy both material X and material Y from companies D and A, B, C respectively and sell it to external customers. So for companies E and F both material X and Y are trading goods (HAWA).
I guess you see the trouble :). So, what material types shall be defined in this SAP client?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Regards,
Rosen

one material can only have one material type.
If you dont want to use standard material types such as FERT, just because the other company does not accept this because for them it is a raw material, then just define an own material type.
a material type is nothing but description with some customizing. It is mainly used to define the layout of a material master, which views and fields will be present.
But people think they need to use the material type as key for reports. This will not work in a intercompany business.
I had such dicussions several times, people often just were confused because a raw material for them becomes a FERT in SAP, so you can ease the discussion by defining an own material type, even this will not solve the reporting issue .

Link Material Type Item Category

Hi,
How can i make the link between the material type and the item category when the material has NO BOM ? Otherwise each time a PM order si created the item category has to be filled (stock or no stock). I know it is there i just can't find it.
Thanks,
Olivier

Hello,
Can you brief me on how it works?
When i checked the setting of link item category with the material type then it shows me that the item category is to be defined based on the material type and maintenance plant. But what is the relation in term of the order type i.e. whenever i create any order with a specifica order type, the default item category should get reflected on the componenets tab of the order?
Can you guide me how to do this setting.

Material Type for Software

What would be an appropriate material type for sellable software? Dien? Fert? thx

A material type is nothing than a description plus some customized attributes. for one company the predefined material types work right away while others may have to tweak them to their needs.
what is a spare part ERSA for one company, may be a FERT for an other company, it depends on your business.
I am working in a chemical company, a Pipe or an ellbow is just a spare part for us. A company that manufactures pipes and ellbows has those items as FERTs, a company that builds tankfarms has these items as raw materials.
what is a software, probably a FERT for the company that developes it. But the predefined nature of a FERT is quantity and value managed. Which would make sense for software too, if the software is on a CD and the CD in carton.
For a company that buys the software - if it is so expensive like SAP software - it is probably an asset.
you said you do not store software, this means you would need to customize the FERT material type to your personal needs or create an own material type.What other views do you not need in case of software? if you dont store materials, then the MRP views can become obsolete, storage location view is certainly obsolete, WM views are not needed, work scheduling view probably not needed.
Can you manage the material only by value? to my knowledge value only materials are only possible in a retail system.
It is not really possible to give you a recommendation what material type you should use, as this is pretty much dependend to your business and local requirements.

Material Type for Byproduct & Scrap - Used again as a raw material

Hai Everybody,
I am having a material which is a Byproduct & Scrap of final product , we are reusing the byproduct & Scrap as a raw material again in our process.
What material Type i have to use?
Regards,
Mohan

Create a material type similar to Semifinished as ZBIP or ZSCRP and mark them as Bi-Products or Co-Product in the material master and also in the BOM with negative quantity.
For costing purposes maitain the apportionment structure for the settlement.
Now you can get this material ouptut as Bi-product or Scrap and use this as even raw material in some other semifinished or finished product BOM.
But in some cases this becomes recursive, take care.
Most of this cases occur when using solvents and recovering the solvents in the process.
Hoep this helps you.

Restricting Production Order to be saved with Material that has No BOM

Hello Gurus,
I am not sure if I have missed something in the setup for the shopfloor control.
The situation is this, I have a finish goods material that has no BOM. I tried converting the Planned Order to Production Order but when I was trying to save the order it prompted "No Material Component", subsequently been SAVED!
Kindly provide assistance to resolve this concern.
Many Thanks,
Nap

Goto OPJK and for your order type Availability 02 under release material choose 3.No release if parts are missing
sytem will allow to save order but it wont allow to release and ultimatly to confirm.

Valuation type while creating BOM

Hello Experts,
My requirement is that, I should be able to select valuation type of material in BOM. Please let me know, if there any setting where I can enter valuation type, while creating BOM.
We have two valuation types for my raw material - Local and Import. When we execute standard cost estimate, system picks up value appearing in material master (without valuation type). This value is average of both the valuation types. So we want that system should pick up valuation type, mentioned in BOM.

Deepak

Hello Deepak,
In go to CS01/CS02 select the line item and go to item overview and in that in the customer fields tab you can maintain the valuation type.
If customer field not available then with help of the user exit ''PCSD0002'' you add the customer filed in item.
It's not standard process, you have to do the development
I hope this information helpful to you,
