MB31 AFTER PARTIAL CONFIRMATION

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to register a partial confirmation for a production order and then introduce these confirmed units into my stock while the production order isn't still closed.
If so, how should i proceed?
Thanks in advance,
Luis.

Thank you very much for your answer.
I have done what you wrote but i still get this error when trying to do GR in transaction MB31:
it informs that my order "does not contain any selectable items".
I have checked my order status:
REL Released
MSPT Material Shortage ( I should be able to do GR despite this fact)
PCNF Partially confirmed
PRC Pre-costed
SETC Settlement rule created
Operations are also released and partially confirmed.
Where is the error?
Thanks

GATP after partial confirmations it leaves the full quantity for backorder

Hi,
We are using GATP to confirm the sales orders and to process the backorder. But, when a partial confirmation is done (for example: I order 10 PC of A and GATP confirms 4 PC of, it is not leaving 6 PC for the Backorder instead it leaves the 10 PC of A for the Backorder. So overconfirmation is done when the backorder confirms the 10 PC).
Where should I check?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Please set Avail. Check "E" in transaction OVZJ. See note 33084.

Restriction of posting date in transaction CO11N for partial confirmations

Hi all,
 I am trying to restrict(by checking thru an exit) the posting date in co11n , for this i m using enhancement CONFPP04.
 Import parameter AFRUD_IMP IS USED.
 Now when i m putting production order no , operation activity no.(for e.g 10 , 20 etc ) and posting date IN SEL SCREEN OF CO11N
 AFRUD_IMP-BUDAT( POSTING DATE ) CONTAINS VALUE in debugging mode , hence i m getting the value of posting date
 and in that case check is written in code. This is the case of full confirmation.
 But in case of partial confirmation i have to give production order no , operation activity no , *Partial confirmed qty * and posting date , in this case the posting date value changes to 0 in the debug mode ie.
AFRUD_IMP-BUDAT is showing 0 and hence no calculation can be done base on the date.
 Our requirement is such that if there is a prd order no say X,
then in CO11N if user enters prd no X , operation activity no 10 , post date say D1
then again for prd no X , operation activity no 20 , post date of activity 20 should not be less than D1
SIMAILARY for X, ACTIVITY 30 , post date should not less than that of activity 20. and so on.
 But if partial quantity is mentioned value of AFRUD_IMP-BUDAT is becoming null.
 If anyone knows about this scenario please share.
Thanks and regards

Hi, In the T-code Mb31
The Posting Date which is used is when entering the document in Financial Accounting or Controlling. The fiscal year and the period for which an update of the accounts specified in the document or cost elements is made, are derived from this posting date.
When entering documents, the system checks whether the posting date entered is allowed by means of the posting period permitted.But this posting date can differ from both the entry date (day of entry into the system) and the document date (day of creation of the original document).This is for the practical purpose .
So its for the Monthly permitted and not for a day or range .
Secondly when you are saying :
"We want this default date to get freeze the moment you enter
the transaction (MB31). If you are opting for second option we want
some flexibility to change the date as required."
Both freezing and opting for changes is not possible , either one can occur .
You can freeze/display mode only the field for the T-code and the document type, but that will not solve your problem .
What i understand from the description is you want to Do GR on A particular date or GR should be allowed after a particular date . Please let me know if this is the case then there's a way around to do this that is you can do GR and Post on the dates near to your desirable dates .

Purchase to Order Scenario - Partial Confirmation Issue

Hello Team,
We are using Item Category with Purchase to Order Scenario. When the Sales Order is booked, Purchase Requisition is Created. Sales Order Line is linked to the Purchase Requision/Purchase Order.
In this scenario, we are getting confirmation on Sales Order through PR/PO Initially.
Order Quantity     Confirmed Quantity
10                         10
Once we receive partial confirmation on PO let us say 7 system only confirms partially Sales Order.
Order Quantity     Confirmed Quantity
10                         7
Issue happens when our team does partial delivery to customer before receiving full confirmation from the Supplier. System blocks further update of confirmation on the line and it becomes impossible to make delivery to Customer for Partial Quantity.
I can think of two options...
1. Somehow when we receive Partial Cofnirmation, our Availibility Check should confirm 7 on Confirmation recieved from the Supplier and 3 from Delivery Date of Purchase Order. So this issue won't happen.
2. System should somehow allow Partial Confirmation even after Partial Delivery is done to the Customer.
Do let me know if you need any more details from my side.
Kaushal

Hi Kaushal,
i assume that you have special stock indicator in your sales order.
if you do not use confiramtion then all quantities are confirmed at schedule line level.
if you use confirmation e.x. 7 of 10 pieces then you will have confirmer 7 quantities in your schedule line.
if you create another confirmation in PO of 2 pieces and lets say different date you will see another schedule line in your sales order.
do your system works like this?
Is your third party scenario require a googds receipt for PO to move on to delivery?
Regards.

CM01 not updating upon partial confirmation of an activity in order

Hello PP Angels,
I am looking for an explanation for this.
When a production order is partially confirmed, (using CO11N),
for an activity -- say labor time.
(and do not confirm any quantity )
subsequently, on checking the CM01 Standard Overview,
I find the report unchanged, under the requirements column.
(for the week concerned)
But the same ( capacity requirements) gets reduced,
for the relevant week,
on doing a partial confirmation of production order,
for a value in the "Yield" field in C011N.
Is this the standard SAP behavior ?
I am in ECC6.
Thanks in advance !

Thanks for the reply !
I have tried it
It does work,
there is a change in the cap reqmnt column in CM01
But the value is not as expected, as explained below.
CM01 shows initial cap req as 33.5H
After confirming the production order
for 10 minutes (0.1667 H) of set up time
I would expect the Cap Req Column to have a value of 33.5 H - 0.1667 H = 33.3 H
but CM01 displays only 0.17 H
( I have created this scenario such that CM01 reflects only one production order.
So there is no mix up of data. )
Can we see how the Cap Req column in CM01 is being calculated, (the details)
I did double click the cap Req value in CM01
and it shows the relevant production order,
but no further details can be viewed pertaining to the calculations.
Thanks in advance !!!

Workforce Planning for Partially Confirmed Activities

Hi All,
I have recently configured Workforce planning for one of the clients, and it has been working as per the requirement. Here, I have configured Workforce Planning profile and Scheduling parameters of Network. So, once a Project and a Network is created, User plans Personnel for this Network's activity using CMP2. Also, CATS profile is maintained in such a way that Worklist shows the Planned hours and accordingly a person can book Time against it.
Now, the problem arises after a Personnel assigned to an activity books the Timesheet. Once a Person books time against this particular Activity, it gets disappeared from CMP2 screen. Now, practical implications are that, suppose that person goes for a leave or leaves the organization and PM wants to assign another person for the same Activity (which is partially confirmed).
How can we address this issue - to perform workforce planning for Partially Confirmed activities?
Any pointers to User Exits, BADIs, BAPIs or SAP Notes are highly appreciated.

Hi Sanjeev,
Thanks for your feedback.
In CMP2, we are already checking the activity work hours. According to that only we are adding resource, then checking that resource's availability and then assigning work.
As an example, activity work duration is from 20.08.2014 to 30.09.2014. I assigned a resource A from 20.08.2014 to 30.09.2014 for 8 hours because he is available in that duration.
Now, the real problem comes when this resource is suddenly unavailable (due to any reason) and PM comes to know about this on 07.09.2014. Resource A has already booked Timesheet for the duration he has worked (20.08 to 06.09). So activity is PCNF.
So PM wants to reduce the Work assignment for Resource A from 30.09.2014 to 06.09.2014 and assign Resource B from 07.09.2014 to 30.09.2014, but he is unable to get this activity in CMP2 view because it is PCNF. Here PM can only see activities of same project which are in REL status.
So how can I enable this PCNF activity in CMP2 view.
If there is any IMG activity settings, then let me know.
If this is standard behavior and can be done through User Exit/BADI/BAPI then also let me know.

Goods issue after PO confirmation

Hi, expert
After the production order being confirmed, can production line still staging materail from warehouse to PSA with referende to the same order?

Wang,
Do you mean to say that can the GR be done on the order which is already confirmed with CO11N? or the confirmation more than the order quantity.
GR & confirmation are two separate processes.
But GR as well as confirmation can be done more than the order quantity.
You can have extra GR against the order with T code MB31.
For confirmation more than the order quantity, you need to do settings in confirmation parameters in OPK4. If you set over & underdelivery toleranceis not checked in 'Generally valid setting' tab page.
If you do this then it will enable you to do confirmation more than the order quantity.
Hope this helps you.

Batch number(int/Ext) on partial confirmation

Hi Gurus,
I want to maintain separate batch no.(Int or Ext) for each partially confirmed quantity, for example, If order qty is 100 and if i confirm 50 qty system will promt for batch no. for that qty and same thing should happen for the remaining qty. Can you please tell me what are the cofiguration and master data settings i need to maintain.
With Regards
Rajib
Edited by: Rajib Pathak on Sep 10, 2008 10:49 AM

Hy Rajiv,
For Multiple Batch No.During GR for Production Order you have to do below Settings.
In Production Scheduling Profile T.code OPKP / CORY
Select No Automatic Batch Creation in Production / Process Order.
You can do this setting in T.code CORW - Define Batch Creation in Order.
After This settings there is no Batch No will not generate automatically in Order.And Due to this system will generate Batch No, During Goods Receipt of Order and this will happen for Partial and Final Goods receipt.
But For this Most imp thing is Batch Creation for 101 Movement type is set active in SPRO (Batch Management)

Partial Confirmations in WIP

Right now, when we confirm the full quantity of a production order, there will be no costs assigned to the G/L account for WIP. However, when we confirm a partial quantity for the production order, then those costs will be assigned to the G/L account for WIP.
How can we have partial quantities NOT show up in WIP? How can this step be skipped?

OPJ8 does not provide the solution I am looking for. In OPJ8, I can alter the control keys for my operations, but it will not let me adjust how WIP is calculated.
OPL8 also does not provide the solution I am looking for. In OPL8, I can change the RA key, but that only prevents WIP from being calculated.
I am unsure what exactly I should be looking for in OKGC, this seems to just be the definitions of the RA keys that I can adjust in OPL8.
I should clarify, I donu2019t necessarily want to u2018skipu2019 WIP calculation, I want all partial confirmations to post directly to the G/L.
So letu2019s say we partially confirm a quantity of 5 on an order of 10. In this situation, we would typically see these associated costs in the G/L account for WIP. We do not want to see any partial confirmations in WIP, we want these costs posted directly to the account after WIP.
I want it so that if I were to run FBL3N u2013G/L Account Line Items (after the individual processing of a partially confirmed order), I would NOT see my partially confirmed order in this report.

Partially confirmed production orders

Hello,
Could you please advice with the issue.
I have production orders that were partially converted from the planned orders.
While converting to production orders the planned orders were deleted.
Could you please advise how I can complete the production orders now as it is partially confirmed and there is no planned order any more.
I have now the status partially confirmed.
Regards
M.

Did the check box "Delete planned ord." got check accidentally or intentionally (in CO48, through MD04)? In either case it is not reversible. You have to create a new production order (or planned order, depending on your business procedure) for the extra quantity you want to produce.
Or
Change the header quantity in the current production order and confirm the same operations(which you already confirmed), system will normally propose the remaining quantity to be confirmed (the extra quantity you added).
F1 Help on Delete planned ord. checkbox.
The indicator 'Delete planned order' determines whether the planned order is deleted after the partial quantities are converted to production orders. The indicator is set automatically if the open quantity is equal to zero or is no longer a positive number. If the open quantity is made positive again by changes to partial quantities then the indicator is NOT automatically reversed.

Report for mass interruption of partially confirmed orders in PPDS?

Hi gurus,
our client has a lot of partially confirmed orders in the past, and this is giving us problems with the optimizer.
Is there a report for mass interruption of this orders?
We can do it one by one in the DS planning board, but there are too many!
would appreciate any help,
Pablo

Hi Pablo,
I would suggest you can close the partially confirmed orders at R/3 itself
so that it will update in APO via CIF.
There is delivery complete indicator in R/3 production/process order which
upon checking will close the order.

Production order status was not changed to 'CNF' after final confirmation.

Hi guru.
I experienced very special case that production order status was not changed to CNF after final confirmation.
I did final confirmation and canceled confirmation. (CNF -> REL)
And I did final confirmation again because of fixing activity quantity.
the strange thing is that production order status wasn't changed from REL to CNF.
I did confirmation again with 0 activity, thereby I solved this problem
BUT i don't know why this case happened.
Please, explain the reason.
Thanks.

Hi,
As per my observation, their is not any change in the status of the order REL with confirmation CNF, instead of this, it has change from CRTD & then to TECO.
Sequence of the status of the order as below
1) CRTD MANC NMAT SETC
2) REL NMAT SETC - Changes from CRTD to REL after releasing of the order
3) REL CNF PRC CSER ERTR OPGN SETC - After confirmation, it updated after the order REL status.

Partial confirm on customeru2019s order quantity for EDI sales order

Hi All,
Our company is using ECC 6.0. We seem to having issues with orders coming through EDI u2013 i.e. it will not partially confirm what we have in stocks and just reject the whole line. E.g. If the customer is ordering 300 units for an material and we have 200 units in stocks only, it will zero confirm instead of partially confirm 200 units. If I try to manually key in the same material in the same sales order then it will partially confirm it (I.e. 200 units) instead of zero confirm.
I have checked the ATP check rules and it seems everything alright. Any idea why this would happen only for EDI orders? Are there any EDI setup that will cause this issue? Any ideas where I can looks for the potential issues might be?
Thank you.

Evidence,
What happens when you enter the order manually (VA01)?
Best Regards,

Unable to update purchase order after partial delivery

bold Issue:
After upgrading from v2005 > v2007:
1) We created a PO with two different purchase items :
row 1: 10 pcs Item x
row 2: 15 pcs item Y
2) create a Goods Receipt PO based on the PO row 2 (15 pcs Item Y) so this row will be closed in the PO.
3) after saving the GRPO item Y is set as a non purchase item (deselected the tick box "Purchase Item" on the Item master), because the supplier will not be able to deliver this item again.
4) After changing item Y, we want to update the amount of Item X to for example 11 (instead of 10). This item is still a purchase item > while updating the PO the following error appears:
[Purchase Order - Rows - Item No.][line: 2] , 'The item is not a purchase item (2)' [Message 131-10]
In v2005 it was possible to follow the above procedure, however since the upgrade of v2007 the error appears.
The problem is that that it happens very often that the suppliers change the items, so they cannot be delivered anymore.
bold Below the response of SAP Support:
Line: -
Yes, I understand what you mean that the item you want to deliver is the other item PQ which is still a purchase item. However, the system does the checking based on document level, and not filtering only per Open rows. Hence, even if the item for B8 is fully closed, the system still detects that there is a non-purchase item in an open document (B8).
In order to update the other item PQ, please set the item B8 back to Purchase Item. Once the Sales Order is updated, you may update B8 again to Non Purchase.
If the possibility of using the 'Active/Inactive' button is not possible, another workaround is to use a User Define Field to flag the item. For example, you can set it as 'Y', when the supplier stopp ed selling the item. Then, in the Item Search window, you can filter the records to group those items that are set as 'Y' and the rest as 'N'. Only those 'N' items can be used when placing orders.
As an added procedure, you can generate an approval procedure that will be triggered when an item that is set as 'Y' in the User Defined field is added in the Purchase Order. When the approval is trig gered, the user can then re-verify the items added and make the necessary changes before saving the purchase document.
I hope the above workaround is suitable. I agree with the expected logic, but per Note937297, the stock status of an item is not meant to be changed after documents are added in the system. It seems a limitation in the current system.
Line: -
bold Solution:
The system should check if the open row can be delivered, since it still is a purchase item.
The provided workarounds are not an option for our customer, so we are looking forward to a positive reaction!
