Min Inventory Level

Hello All -
Currently we do not have the Min Inventory Level populated in the Item Master. What changes should we expect to see in any of the modules by filling in this field...i.e., any alerts, etc?
How are Min Inventory Level alerts set up?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi.
Using this fields will modify the behavior of thouse articles when running MRP. The recommendations generated by MRP to buy/produce an article, will include the min level requirement into its calculations in order to keep the min level after all the transactions were made.

Work order via Sub-Inventory level planning

Hello Team,
We want to create work order via Sub-Inventory level planning as standard program 'min-max planning report' is nor creating WIP Jobs at sub-inventory level.
Kindly guide me if this requirement is possible and if so do share your knowledge on it.
Thanks/Suresh

You can only create a Move Order or requisition from Min/Max at the Sub Inventory level. To create a job order it is organization level

System alert/pop up on min Inventory

how can i initialize a pop-up/alert when an item in a particular warehouse reaches the min. inventory.
Regards
Antony

Antony,
To have an alert, you would need to generate a query using table OTIM - with a condition to generate report whenever the stock of a particular item goes down below the mini order level.
The query generated should then assign the same in an alert management.
Use this query for this purpose
SELECT T0.ItemName, T0.OnHand FROM OITM T0 WHERE T0.OnHand < T0.MinLevel
Assign points if useful.
Thanks,
Srikanth

Is It possible for a Non Shippable Inventory Item sold in OM update INVENTORY Levels

Is It possible for a Non Shippable Inventory Item sold in OM update INVENTORY Levels?
I have created an Item which is inventory tracked but not shippable. Customer & Internally Ordered. But upon booking the Sales Order, the INVENTORY level of the said item does not get updated with the sale.
How can i make it update INVENTORY without going thru shipping module?
thanks.

Hi Jay
How are you.
Yes, in process sampling only.
Is it not neccessary to have a wip validity rule for wip products in the specs. I am able to create samples for wip products with inventory validity rule.

Error Message in Delivery : Quantity falls below minimum inventory level

Version : SBO 2005 A SP01 PL22
Description of Issue: When trying to Add a Delivery you get Error Message: Quantity falls below minimum inventory level [Delivery - Rows - Warehouse Code] [line: 0] [Message 131-14]. You are then unable to Post the Delivery and Print the corresponding Packing List.
Testing Findings: Upon detailed testing of this issue and work with SAP Support it has been determined that the issue is that the Delivery Row Ordered Qty is looking at the OITM In Stock Qty when determining if the full Row Qty can ship instead of the OITW In Stock Qty. This is an issue because due to other "bugs" this Client has encountered their OITW Qtys in other Whses are negative, even though they have the Block Negative Inventory and the Manage Inventory by Warehouse Flags Checked On. This then reduces the OITM Qty below the level of the Delivery Row and you get the above error message.
Example: A Sales Order Row has an Order Qty of 15 for Whse 01 for a particular Item. The OITW In Stock Qty for Whse 01 = 17. The OITW In Stock Qty for Whse 03 = -7. The Block Negative Inventory and Manage Inventory by Whse Flags are both Checked On. The 'Net' OITM In Stock = 10. When you try to Copy the Sales Order to a Delivery and Add the Delivery, you get the above Error Message and it will not allow you to Post the Delivery and Print the Packing List.
Current Workaround: Client is performing Inventory Goods Receipts to bring the In Stock Qtys in the affected Whses to greater than or equal to zero.
Proposed Solution: SAP Development to add logic to SAP Business One to validate the Delivery Row Qtys to Ship against the OITW In Stock Qtys instead of OITM when the Manage Inventory by Whse Flag is checked on.
Supporting Documentation: This DRQ Request relates to Support Message # 864405 2007. All above referenced testing details including example SO#'s, Item #'s, etc. and an entire copy of the Client's database are available and linked to this Message #.

Hi Ramu,
also you can make sure you are choosing the right WH in ctrlshiftS windows if You do, then chek on Inventory -> Inventory report -> inventory status if you have enought and available quantities for the delivery, if you dont then you gonna have to make the PO and the AP Invoice to add more quantity to that item

Hi,
I'm not sure what you mean when you are speaking about inventory levels and available quantity.
I mean that you may have stock of 100 pcs of a certain material but from an open PrdOrd can come a reservation for this component (e.g. 20 pcs) that reduces this the available quantity (to 80 pcs).
If you want only the stock levels, you don't have to write any ABAP code, since MB52 report is designed for this purpose.
If you want to know the available stock (considering requirements (PIR, DepReq, SO), and stock-like MRP elements (PldOrd, PurReq, PrdOrd, PO, etc)) you should check report MD04 and examine how it works, which tables it uses (ST01).

STAGING           7     7          7
     STORES          0     0          0
2) Created an Sales order with quantity 5 ,then STAGING decreased by 5 which is correct.
          the avilablty as below :

     oRG level          7     7          7

Hi Patel,
You can create a confirmations using CO11N for sub-operations, but you can only confirm hours, not yield quantity. The yield quantity requried to be confirmed in the operation. You can partially or fully confirm sub-operations.
Enter the order number, sub -operation number all the related data will be displayed execpt greyed quantity fields.
Can you see the "sub-operation" entry field below "oper./activity" in CO11N ?

Inventory Management: Month beginning and ending inventory levels

Hello,
I need to have beginning and end of month inventory levels. I havent been given any functional specs . The only favor I would like from you is to know what standard chars and key figs you are using in your rows and column. And how are you using the objects in the forumla Naveen A suggested in the thread [SAP Business Explorer (SAP BEx);.
Specially where he mentions formula, I would like to know what key figures does it consist of and are they restricted to the current or prior month.
Let the end inventory be the same way and the begin inventory be as end inventory - ( total receipts current month - total issues current month).
Thanks

Anyone...Naveen A ....Arun????

Min & Max level

Hi
My client insist on the maintenance Min & Max level at storage location, however i can not maitain in standard MM.
If i develop a separate application for maintaing Min & Max level what will be the effects on MIGO when i do Issue or Receipts.
In this senario i will have to develop an additional check on every Movement of Materials (Issue & Receipts).
Kindly help me out.
Regards
Muhammad Tahir

Hi Tahir ,
As said by you . the requirement cannot be fulfilled in MM.
You may try at BIN level provided WM is implemented in your Org.
As a storage location may consists of different materials with different stock units ( Min and Max levels will again differ ) , i doubt your req may not be fulfilled .

Quantity Falls Below Minimum Inventory Level

Hi!, I have an item that we manage by warehouse, we've set the minimum inventory level to 5000 pieces.
So the MRP has procured me 5000 pieces through a purchase order. I received my item through Goods Receipt PO and now that I want to transfer it to another warehouse I get a message "Quantity Falls Below Minimum Inventory Level".
I though the purpuse of the minimun inventory level was to procure more, not to lock transactions on the item. Is there a setting that I can tweek so I can use my 5000 pieces?
Thank you.

Hi,
That message is a warning only. If you have enough authorization, you could still get all necessary transactions done without problem. The message is not avoidable.
Thanks,

Required inventory level in Item Master

Hi,
                    In the item master data in Inventory tab we have minimum inventory,maximum inventory and also required level.What is the function of that field.Because it is not filled automatically even after the stock level goes below minimum inventory level.Can somebody explain?
                                                                                Regards,

Hi Sekar,
The required inventory level in Item Master with the following function:
In the Required (Purchase UoM) field, the system displays the quantity to keep the stock at the minimum level.
If you select Release Stock Below Minimum Level in the Document Settings, the system issues alerts when the quantity goes below the minimum. The system does not let you enter stock documents when the stock reaches its maximum quantity.
Thanks,
Gordon

Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

I do not understand what "My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min." means.
Also % battery is not accurate for an iPod. It fluctuates.
Maybe this will help:

Increasing inventory level

Hi,
I have a problem with SAP APO and increasing inventory levels. I would appreciate your help in this issue.
The forecast accuracy for our products is very good and we don't have any issues in the production planning. But our inventory level is increasing. How can I diagnose where the problem could be? What are the main settings that I need to look at?
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards,
Roy

Roy
Inventory is a symptom of a problem, not the problem itself. When you say that your forecast accuracy is good, this usually only affects Safety Stock, not all Inventory.
What specific inventory are you talking about - Finished Goods, Raw Material, Work In Process ? Pipeline Stock, Cycle Stock, Obsolete Stock, etc.
So here are some things to consider -
1. Has your demand been increasing or become more volatile ? If so, some of the policies/ settings in supply planning could lead to higher inventory.
2. Have you changed Supply Planning policies/ settings - Lot Sizes, Lot Size Policies, Safety Stock Methods, Safety Stock quantities. etc. This obviously has a huge impact on inventory.
3. Have planned lead times changed - Longer Production Times, longer pick/ pack, goods receipt times, longer transportation lanes ? Adding buffer in planned lead times usually leads to higher inventory.
4. Have you changed your distribution network - Increased number of customer facing locations? Push Deployment instead of Pull ?
5. Has there been a change to product portfolio - Increased number of new products ?
