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.

  • 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

  • Customization for Material Usage for Brazil Country

    Dear Experts,
    Is it possible to define new Material Usages (apart from 0,12 & 3) in customization? Where in SPRO we can define this. Or atleast is it possible to change the description of the Material Usages in SPRO. We have business requirement to change the description of this Material Usage printed in PO Print out using SmartForms.
    Thanks in advance for your solutions for this.

  • 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 ?
    Best regards,
    Enrico

  • BOM usage change

    Dear Friends,
    How can we do the BOM usage change... without creating a new BOM with new usage. For example I have created a BOM with usage 1 (Production). This I want to change to usage 6 (Costing). How can I do it.. it is possible? or not?
    Regards,

    Hi,
    First you need to create new BOM which is relevent to costing  by copying the production BOM after that you can delete the production BOM.
    Apart from archiving you can also simply delete the BOM by going in change mode -CS02,material -->Delete
    OR,
    Please check transaction codes CS26 and CS28. And There is one more function module to delete the bom with histoty.CS_SF_BOM_DELETE_FOR_ARCHIVE.
    Hope clear to you. Reward if useful.

  • How to extend Sales org for a material being Changed

    Hi Experts,
    i need to extend sales org , distribution Channel for a material .
    my table look like this and having 6 fields shown below

    Sales org | Des | Distn Chnl | desc |  Copy from So | Copy from Dstn Chnl
    If the user enters the existing value in Copy From SO and Copy Fron Distn Chnl  .  Then i need to copy all the values corresponding to the Existing SO and Distrn Chnl to the Newly entered Sales Org . 
    the table im displaying in ALV , if user perss F4 in copy From SO and Copy From Distn  , i need to show the existing values for the material being changed , this is working fine and i am able to get the existing values.
    After user selects one of the existing value for SO and Distrn channel  , i need to copy all the values to newly created So and distrn Chnl  .
    i dont know how to proceed . Please help me to solve this problem.
    Thanks,
    Shrikanth

    You can use AET to extend the sales area data of BP.  However, it wont add the fields automatically in GUI, But the generated fields are available in the relevant DB tables.
    BP GUI transaction is no more supported . Im not sure why you want to work on GUI.

  • Accessing material master change information

    We have a requirement to pull all changes to material master records by month.  I know that I can hit the CDHDR and CDPOS tables using CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS and CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_POSITIONS functions to pull this; however our change tables are so huge that the program is timing out.  Running in background does not work either because the spool request only shows a few of the pages (10, I think) where the document is actually over a thousand printed pages.   I can't email the spool request either because the file is too large. 
    My question is...is there an infostructure that only contains material master changes (as opposed to all changes as in the CDHDR and CDPOS tables?)  I know that when you go into MM03 and view materail master changes they pull up really quickly.  Is this program hitting something else rather than the CDHDR and CDPOS tables?  How do they pull up so quickly even if there are many changes.
    Thanks in advance.

    That's the beauty of having the option to debug a program. Wondering how SAP reads the data fast: go debug!

  • Material Master Change History

    Some of our business users fail to or incorrectly modify certain fields for materials that are changed from manufactured to purchased and vice-versa.  Can you help me to find a way to extract material attribute changes by company code, division, a list of materials and the option to choose certain attributes to display the old and new values.  I can't currently find a way to drill down this far, as some materials have hundreds of changes.  Thanks.

    Hi Josh,
    Try MM04. It displays material change base on following factors
      Material            
      Change Number       
      Plant               
      Valuation Type      
      Sales Organization  
      Distribution Channel
      Warehouse Number    
      Storage Type                            
      Changed by

    Is this ok for you...

  • Material master change report

    I've been asked to created a program for material master changes that will run nightly and send an e-mail if any field on any material number has changed that day.  I've checked into MM04 and MM44 but both run for a single material only.  Is there any report that will run for all materials and give the change records?  I'm trying to explore all options before writing a custom report.
    Thanks!

    see OSS note 336668, it describes a modification to MM04 which fulfills your requirement.

  • Material delta changes are not flowing into CRM

    Dear All,
    material delta changes are not flowing into CRM, because the product hierarchy on material has been changed to a new product hierarchy. I do not want to download again the object DNL_CUST_PROD1 because it maight cause inconstancies in CRM. (I have already defined some z product hierarchies in CRM)
    Do I need to create the new product hierarchy also in CRM manually?
    Appreciate any inputs
    Raj

    Hi Raj,
    Use the transacrion R3AR2 to create a z object for DNL_CUST_PROD1 and assign DNL_CUST_PROD1 as the object name
    Then in request detail screen for new z object enter the details like table name (T179 in your case) and the name of the product hierarchy that you want to bring in. Save the transaction
    Then use the transaction R3AR4 to initiate the download for your new z object as you normally do in R3AS.
    Then go to SMW01 and reprosess the struck Bdoc.
    Reward points if helps,

  • How to trigger Material CIF change pointers when changing Source List

    I need to trigger a Material Change pointer (CIFMAT) creation when the Source List is updated for that material.  In BD52 (ALE configuration) table EORD is not an option for CIFMAT message type, so by standard ALE this can not be done automatically.  I could not find any BAdI/Userexit which will help me to create a material master change pointer so that the Material (Product) will be sent to APO via the CIF when the Source List in R/3 is changed.

    Hi , Can you please check user exit CIFMAT01 function module EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001.You can use this enhancement to influence the logic according to which material data from SAP R/3 is mapped to APO product interface data.
    I suggest to put logic in user exit to check table source list table EORD changes & trigger CIF for material master.You can pull  change data from table CDPOS using EORD table reference & material object value details.
    Based on change record CIF user exist should trigger material CIF run and feed to APO.
    Hope this solution will work in your case.thanks

  • Why Material Classification Changes are not shown in MM04?

    I have a material; I changed classification data by changing a value of a
    Characteristic, e.g. unit of measure for reporting. It had allowed values of
    No entry, mg, kg..  I changed it from No entry to mg.
    However when I went to MM04; I do not see the change; why. I know
    When I make changes to non Classification data; I can see changes in mm04.

    Hi,
    I'm afraid you can't see these changes in MM04.                                                                               
    MM04 does not show the changes of classification of the material  master only the changes of fields which directly belong to material master. You can get the classification change docs in the classification screen: menu  Environment -> change docs.                                                                               
    Also note that Changes to the values of characteristics are not recorded in material master changes. These values are stored in the  classification tables and if you want to track changes of them, you have to use engineering change management.
    Thanx & Regards,
