HI,
When u change the matl grp in material master u get this msg
You are changing material group, but material already used by purchasing
    Message no. M3531
Procedure
    When changing the material group of a material that is already being
    used by the purchasing department, you should note that:
    o   The purchasing statistics show how much of a material group has
        already been ordered. Unitl the change is made, the material is
        managed under the old material group and therefore the old material
        group statistics are updated. From the moment the change is made,
        the new material group's statistics are updated.
    o   Some purchase orders may derive from contracts with item categories
        referring to material groups. If this is the case, the material
        cannot be used after the change has been made.
    o   Every purchase requisition is allocated to a release strategy that
can depend on the material group. A new release strategy may apply
to a new material group. Purchase requisitions that were created
before the change are subject to the old strategy; purchase
requisitions that were created after the change are subject to the
new strategy.

Hi,
External Material Group
Key that you can use to assign the material to an external material group or to a material group determined according to external systematics.
Examples
For example, you can store the CCG material group or Nielsen material group here.

Hi Bitia,
As per my understanding, after you add Item field to the report, it does not calculate total of matl group, right? If that is the case, please refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the problem:
Modify the dataset used to retrieve data, delete the fields will not be used in the report.
Run the query in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to make sure that there is data for matl cost group.
Make sure that row group and totals are correctly added.
In addition, do you want to add Finished date to page header? If that is the case, we can use ReportItem to achieve the goal. Please refer to the following steps:
In design surface, right-click the report and click Insert, then click Page Header.
Drag Text Box from Toolbox to page header.
Right-click inside of Text Box, then click Expression.
In the expression text box, type the code like below:
=ReportItems!FinishedDate.Value
If the problem remain unresolved, please provide the screenshot of the report in design view, the following screenshot is for your reference:

Scheduling Aggrement Error

Hi All,
I am using ME2L report to capture the Open PO's.
I am using a variant.
I found some wrong entries in that report.
I made a scheduling aggrement with one line item.
In line item the total quantity is 575.
I made that in to four schedule lines.
In first schedule line the Scheduled qty is 200 and GR done for 200 qty.
In Second schedule line the scheduled qty is 125 and GR done for 125.
In Third schedule line the scheduled qty is 125 and GR done for 125.
In Fourth schedule line the scheduled qty is 125 and GR not done.
After executing the report i am getting the following entries,
For first schedule line its showing
Scheduled qty 200 GR qty 200
To Be Delivered 125
For second schedule line its showing
Scheduled qty 125 GR qty 125

For third schedule line its showing
Scheduled qty 125 GR qty 125
To Be Delivered 125
For fourth schedule line its showing
Scheduled qty 125 GR qty 0

So for last schedule line its showing the corret "To be Delivered qty but not for the other schedule lines".
Help me in this regard.

Transaction MM60 printing multiple lines for the same information

Transaction MM60 is printing the same information multiple times, meaning that the same materail is printing multiple times with the exact same information. Any ideas why?

It IS showing duplicate lines. The columns that I'm showing are:
Material
Plant
Val. Type
Material Description
Last Change
MTyp
Matl Group
Unit of measure
Purchasing group
ABC indicator
MRPType
Valuation Class
Price Control Indicator
Price
Currency
Price Unit
Created by
Every single field is identical and each material contains exactly eight rows of identical information. The interesting thing is that if I actually enter a material number, only one line shows (which is correct.) However, if I leave the material number blank and enter the material type, that's when we get multiple lines.
Any other ideas?

Error: Tax cod OI country IN does not exist in procedure TAXINN

Hi all,
while posting invoice, i am facing an error
"Tax code OI country IN does not exist in procedure TAXINN"
I defined the tax code OI and assigned it to my company code XXX. I created Tax procedure TAXINN with three basic condition types (BASB, MWAS, MVBS). I assigned my tax procedure to the country IN.
I think i missed some thing in the configuration part. Please guide me.
Thanks!
Pavan

Hi,
1. If tax is deducable in nature means if you are using CIN then assigm Tax code
SPRO --> logisctic General --> tax on goods movements --> india --> bacis setting --> determine of excise condition --> defaults excise conidtion
here assign tax code with company code .
2. If while doing miro you are getting Tax Code" VN" Instead of OI
then please check condition in FV11 for material/plant/vendor combination, may be this tax code system is fetching from there or some other combination you are maintaining.
You can use data base tables also for your Tax code if you know tax conditions used there
T Code : SE16
Table : A363
A358 Country/Plant/Ctrl code/Material
A357 Country/Plant/Ctrl code
A362 Country/NBM-NCM Code
A971 Tax Code
A359 Plant/Matl group
Hope Help u !

FM - Budget check at the time of procurement and at the time of Issue

Hi
For a Material there is a budget for a procurement ( Check should happen at the time of procurement and a seperate budget for consumption ( Check should happen at the time of issue).How can I map this in FM- BCS.I am thinking of creating two commitmen items one for Procurement , to be derived thorugh matl grp at the time of PR / PO and One commitment item for consumption to be derived through consumption GL . Does it work , any comments?
Thanks in advance
Chris

Yes you are right , I have to make to sure stock budget doesn't get credited.
If you remember in one of my other threads, i wanted to derive commitment item from Matl grp, it was for this purpose. I will derive commitment through matl group at the time of procurement / GR etc and assign a dummy commitment item to stock a/cs. Where as i will derive a consumption commiment item from consumption GLs.
Thank you
Chris

Service PO confirmation using BAPI

Hi Frndz,
I have created a Subcontracting Info Record for matl. group and Vendor. This info. record number will be used by an operation in the Routing to create a service PR when I create a Production order. From this PR we will create a service PO.The thing is when system creates the PR, the Item category is L(subcontracting), whereas I would like it to be D(service). So I think I will have to set up a document type for service PR in IMG. Is that correct?
Secondly, we will be having scheduling agreement on a top level with our vendor for a quater and we would like to confirm the prod. order which will eventually confirm the service PO line. We want this to be automatic, so can u guys suggest me any BAPI?
Thanks,
Rohit

Hi Rohit,
As far as I can see you would like to have a kind of subcontracting
functionality similar to inventoried materials.
I am afraid that, but the same functionality does not exist
in the area of External Service Management.
You can try to mix material and service items in the same PO,
you can also activate subcontracting tab in service PO item,
please refer to note note 634395, question 1 and try to check
if your requirement might be met this way (using BADI   ME_PO_SC_SRV, methode MAINTAIN_SRV_FOR_SC).

CIF of material classification data

Dear Experts,
Since a recent technical upgrade to our systems, I have seen a change in behavior of the integration of material classification data from ECC to SCM. Before the upgrade, classification data transferred with the initial CIF of the material. If material classification did not exist on the ECC material at the time the material was added to a new integration model and activated, we "missed the boat" so to speak. Classification would not automatically transfer (CIF) to APO when if finally was loaded in ECC, even if the application area/integration models were correct. As a work-around, we would be forced to generate and activate a material model that specifically excluded the material, then generate and activate another material integration model that included it again. Then the classification would transfer.
After the upgrade, the opposite condition is true, the "initial CIF" of the material will not transfer material classification data at all, it will only transfer if the classification data is added/changed after the material itself is transferred to APO. As a work around for this, if the classification data is already (correctly) loaded in ECC at the time of the initial material CIF, we are changing the status of the material classification from 1 to 3 and back to 1, just to trigger a change, then the classification is transferred instantly to APO.
Are there configuration settings that will allow material classification data to CIF in both cases: with the initial CIF of the material to SCM and also in the event of a change and/or addition of classification data in ECC? Thanks for any advice you can provide.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Dear Matt,
What you are looking for is achieved by downloading the customizing objects from R/3 to SRM.
This is a must before you download materials/services from R/3 to SRM.
Customizing objects are 4:
DNL_CUST_BASIS3 - This takes care of Basis settings in SRM for downloading.
DNL_CUST_PROD0 - This takes care of Material number conversions from R/3 to SRM.
DNL_CUST_PROD1 - This CO actually brings matl groups from R/3 to SRM as product categories.
The result you can see in trx COMM_HIERARCHY (not in COMMPR01 which is for materials/services.
There in R3MATCLASS you can see replicated and locally crated prod categories
and in R3PRODSTYPE you can see the material typs from R/3
DNL_CUST_SRVMAS - This takes care of Customizing: Service Master
The transaction for this is R3As in SRM
and you can monitor the same through R3AM1.
also you can check QRFC of R3 and SRM with SMQ1 and SMQ2.
The next step after this is material/service downloading from R/3 which is done with the same trx R3AS but business objects
Material and
Service_master
You can set fileter in trx R3AC1 for this.

Purchase info record numbering

Hi,
I need to create purchase info record for a meterial. for that i have done the following.
1. Created purchase infor record numbering range and group.
2. But at the time of creating the purchase info record the number which displaying is not related to
number i have created.
Please let me know where purchase info record group is assigned for numbering.
regards
Suresh S

Hi Suresh,
I undersatand your requirement.
SAP has provided only Two standard document Types for Pur. Info Records.
IL for Stock Material ( with matl No.)
IN For material Group (w/o MMR).
By default, if you enter Matl No. in the initial screen, system automatically picks the doc. type IL and the no. range assigned to it.
If you're not entered matl. no. in the initial screen, and proceed the Transaction further, system picks the doc. type IN and prompts you to enter Matl Group.
In the second case, the system picks up the no. range as per assignment.
Here in your case, you want create a new no. range and assign to your IL/ IN.
For this, you go to the transaction Define No. Ranges in Inforecord, from menu bar, choose Group-> maintain. Here you maintain your new no. range with a name. Now your new group is created with your required no. range.
Then select your new group ( Check box), select, IL, and click assign button and save.. Your IL is assigned to your new group and system picks the new No. Range when you are creating a Inforecord with Mat No. Similarly, you can change No. range for IN also.
or one more option you have.
In the first screen of No. Ranges Transaction, select change intervals tab button, you'll be goto intervals screen. There, from Menu bar, choose Interval-> change current No. Then you reset your current no. to Zero, save it. The again choose Change Interval, then in that screen, change the Interval with your new no. range.
Here in the second case, u need not maintain new groups. Just changing the Interval for the existing group.
You can adopt any one of these options.

kanth

Standard or Flexible Planning?

Hi Experts,
We've a requirement, where in Forecasting/SOP is carried out in one info str (Flexible & Consistent). The forecasted numbers @ SKU/Matl levels are @ DC's/Hubs (plants) & the folks @ the MFG plant want to check the possibility of meeting the forecasted numbers from a Capacity stand point, before the numbers are finalized & adopted.
The SKU's @ the MFG plant are grouped as per the Work Centers they are produced on & are called MPF's. The capacity evaluations needs to happen by MPF's (matls grouped by work centers). What I've proposed & tested is to have a 2nd Info Str, with Planning Levels that contain the required grouping at the MFG plant (flexible & consistent). I copy the data from my 1st info str (where the forecast is done @ DC;s) to the 2nd @ the Matl/SKU level, let the data aggregate to MPF's, after which I trigger the RCCP evaluation @ the MPF levels.
Does anyone see a better idea?? Can I use Standard SOP on the 2nd info str to make things simple??
Cheers
Andy

Dear,
It is not possible. In sap, the planning cycle will be SOP -> Demand management -> MRP
SOPu2019 is a forecasting tool enabling you to set up sales, production, and other supply chain targets based on existing, future, or historical data. SOP is most suitable for planning finished goods. SOP plans are passed on to Demand Management in the form of independent requirements (MD61), which in turn is fed in to MRP (Material Requirements Planning).
Hope it clear your doubt
