Hi diwakar,
You can restrict user to create PR,PO.etc for materials belongs to any material group, material type, plant, storage location.
It is not possible to restrict user to use ant specific material code.
Hope it will help you.

Material Usage Variance

Hi Experts
Can somebody tell me how to see material usage variance in sap?
regards,
Sohel

Hi
1. for a particular order, use T code KKBC_ORD... Or you can also see in CO03 (for prod order) or COR3 (for process order)
You can change the layout and plug in columns like Price var, Usage Var, etc
Then you can see each category of variance per material...
2. If you want to see for group of production orders, then use T code KKBC_HOE.. For this you need to do some IMG settings to maintain summarization hierarchies

Material usage change

Hello everyone,
I have to change a purchase order, the material usage is wrong, but this field is not able to change. This purchase order is released, is it because of that?
If so, is there another way to change the material usage?
Thanks in Advance

Hello, all!
For this case , multiple usage you have to use split valuation functionality, I always use this solution to solve this very comum situation in Brazil. Using split valuation you can have more then one valution types for the same material and as each valuation type has your own Accounting view on material maaster per each valution type you can associate a differnet usage.
For example: you can have a valuation type called Resale, other Consumption, other Industrailization, and other Investment, and each one have usage:0, 2, 1 and 3 as follow.
But if you already have SAP impleted in your company , to activate split valuation is possible ( I already did and was a sucess) but it is very hard and complex, and if you have not a good control, ABAP development and plan management, can have a risk.
Beacaus it is necessary close(mark for deletion) all PO, delete all SO, production order w/out delivery quantity and no inventory available.

Debugging of Material usage Variance

Hi All,
We have a Z report for Monthly Material Usage Variance for reporting.
The SAP Material Variance report is not calculating the Material Usage Variance Quantity & Value correctly for production order that have a target quantity and actual quantity that are equal to each other. In this case, the MUV quantity should be equal to 0. Instead a MUV Quantity is calculated and this results in a MUV value being calculated.
I would like to do the debugging.
I am new to SAP ABAP. Kindly, explain me what steps should I take to proceed.
Please give your suggestions.
Quick response will be appreciated <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Thanks & Regards

Hi Venkat & Amiya,
Thanks for your quick response.
I am not able to execute the report right now, as this is a month end report and executed in background on the month end only (on 30th or 31st of every month).
Kindly, let me know, is there any other way to find the bug in the program in this scenario or is there any way to execute the report in between periods.
Quick response will be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards.

MC44: material usage value affected by factory calendar

Hi Gurus,
I've got the following problem: on my 4.6c R3 production instance factory calendar had been setup as 7 working days a week but recently the need was to change it to 5 working days a week due to the introduction of route calculation to determine correct dates for the sales orders.
We changed the factory calendar (which did deliver the correct result for the sales orders) only to discover that the "Usage" value determined for the materials by MC44 got totally wrong (usage with the 5 working days calendar was approximately 30 to 50% LESS than with the 7 days working calendar !!)
As soon as we did restore factory calendar back to 7 working days a week MC44 was again fine (obviously sales orders date got wrong...).
My impression is that everything is based on the way data from table MVER is determined depending on the factory calendar (which is apparently driven by function module DATE_CONVERT_TO_FACTORY_DATE).
I guess I could change from customizing the calendar for the shipping point: in that case my expectation is that sales orders date should be fine as well as results from MC44 but I'm not totally sure about that.
Any idea ? Do you know which is the way table MVER is populated based on the calendar settings ?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Enrico

Hi Jurgen,
from the logical point of view sounds reasonable but....
1) even if I didn't fully debug the program (otherwise I guess I would know the answer ) looks like MVER is the only one considered in terms of usage
2) even if you forget point 1 (I could obviously be wrong) you're missing one information that I didn't mention: our usage (or consumption if you prefer) is 98% done from Monday to Friday; sometimes we do something on Saturday but this is kind of an exception.
Based on the above, despite the factory calendar is setup on 7 working days a week, our material usage is basically done on 5 working days a week. Described this way you'll immediately understand that, even if the program reads the data based on the number of working days, changing the calendar from 7 to 5 should cause a decrease of only 2-3%, in our case changing the factory calendar from 7 to 5 working days is causing a decrease of 30% to 50%.
I believe the program is reading the table in a different way based on the factory calendar, I'll try to give you an example:
      Day     Usage
01   Mon       10
02   Tue        20
03   Wed      30
04   Thu        40
05   Fri          50     ---> total week 1 far 150
06   Sat         2
07   Sun        0      -
> total of the weekend 2
08   Mon       100
09   Tue        200
10   Wed        300
11   Thu       400
12   Fri        500     -
> total week 2 1500
13   Sat        6
14   Sun       0        -
> total of the weekend 6
For the 2 weeks, factory calendar 7 working days a week, total usage would be 1658.
In your case, switching to 5 working days a week, it should deliver usage only for Monday to Friday, which is 1658 - (2+6)=1650    (i.e. difference is peanuts)
As I said, I couldn't get to the end of the debug, but my impression was that, switching to 5 working days a week (based on the above example) the program would read 10 "days" so from Monday 01 to Wednesday 10, in that case the total would be 1658 - (4005006) = 752 (now difference is huge...).
So...... maybe main question could be: which is the way MVER is populated ?

Enrico

Material master authorization

Hi
We gave a scenario where we need to have restrictions on access to material code. Eg while creating PR the user will be able to enter material starting with a specific item code. (the material code will be external no. generation) .
Kindly advise how to go about doing it.
Regards
Nandini

Hi,
if you want authorization at Material type (number range) in that case you have to check your basis team is there any authorization object is there or not if yes then you can put the authorization check at material code level.

I have total 6 usages in BOM (CS02)
we have created the bom with usage "2"

Please suggest..
Thanx & regards,
Nilesh

Hi
You can block create Roles for the persons. First role contains all bom usage except 2. Second role contains only bom usage 2. Assign this 2 roles to user and provide authorization for first role to change all bom usage except 2. For second role provide to display only.
First role
C_STUE_BER - ACTVT - 02
                        STLAN - 1,3,4,5,6
                         STLTY - M
Second role
C_STUE_BER - ACTVT - 03
                      STLAN - 2
                       STLTY - M

Material-level authorization in trn. MFBF

Hi all,
Is there a way to set a user is authorized to notify only a certain groups of materials in MFBF?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
mr.

Dear Manuel,
In standard SAP I dont think its possible to authorize it for certain material alone for executing MFBF.
Check whether you can control via the material type level if not means discuss with your Basis consultant regarding the
control.
