Minimum stock Alert

Hi guys, i need a solution to a query which was raised in a meeting. The purchaser wants an alert if the quantity of stock went within 5% of the minimum stock level. What the user wants is a list emailed to her if ever the quantity drops to this level. The trigger would be if a Sales Order was entered on the system and the order took up that stock. I'm very new to Crystal reports. I have the databases in order to do this, its just the logic to implement it. I've started by using the following databases, fields and formula's:
I have a database field which is 'GDWITM.GDMIN', this is the Minimum Stock Level. So my starting logic would be:
If abs (5/100*{GDWITM.GDMIN}+{GDWITM.GDMIN}) < {GDWITM.GDMIN} THEN
"Please Reorder Items".
Is this wrong. Could you please advise.
Thank You

Your formula is calculating 105% of the minimum stock level and checking to see if it is less than the stock level. Won't ever happen!
The expression should be something like
If 1.05*{GDWITM.GDMIN} > {on hand - on order} THEN
"Please Reorder Items".
(The abs() function is unnecessary, assuming the minimum order level is above zero...)

Minimum stock level

Hi all,
        My scenario comes like this ...i have two service center"A" and "B"where i ll maintain some minimum stock level of spare parts.
       each service center will get service arder individually for spare parts.service center's issue spare parts against order from minimum stock level. so i maintained make to stock scenario where order is full filled with minimum stock level.so planning has to cover minimum stock level.so i mapped in safety stock.
      But the safety stock level varies with some period.so i need an upload program of safety stock in period oriented manner.
      then fullfillment of service order also based on priority wise .becas spar parts for that sevice center are obtained from some other plant ...which should maintain a plan which determaine priority to give spare parts to "A" and "B" in percentage of priority
so i require 1.how to go for upload of safety stock with periodically?
                  2.How the priority can be given for allocation to verious service center.?\

Hi,
For upload the safety stock you can use BDC or LSMW.
for periodic upload try through background program with the help of ABAPer.

Stock Alerts

I've implemented to Stock alert example in Application Server Wireless release 2.0. Therefore I've followed the steps described at:
http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/ias/doc_library/90200doc_otn/wireless.902/a90486/paadwalk.htm#640563
I didn't encounter any errors while configuring the alerts: all the servers are running without any problem and the master alerts and triggers are configured the right way.
Via the Customisation Portal I've configured a new alert for an email client. This should send the Oracle Stockquote at 2 pm every day but unfortunately it doesn't.
My log shows the following error:
Time event handler for master alert 379 is

The PLS-00201 error (in Dutch) points at a PL/SQL error in the database (Identificationsymbol P_SUB_ID must be declared). Where can I find the triggers for the a-sync engine? Could it have something to do with the local Stock.csv file on the server. In the data feeder configuration (init parameters) screen I've added the full path name of the data file. c:\iaswv20\wireless\j2ee\applications\ptg\ptg-web\stock.csv. I think the file is accessible for the system.
Have I forgotten to configure something else? Thanks in advance for your help.

I've recompiled the obects and didn't receive any errors.
Next to that I've checked the aq_tm_processes parameter and it was set to '1'.
After this I've reconfigured the alerts.
When I check the async engine it looks like there errors anymore.

Maintaining minimum stock only for few store materials

Dear All,
How can i maintain minimum stock level for few materials.
Can we maintain while creating mat in mm01 @ purc view or i need to do some other settings ?
B/regds,
CB

Hi,
You have to configure the MRP and maintain all the MRP parameter in to Material master.
After that Run the MRP by transection code MD03 , system will create the PR as per the data maintained in to MRP view of Material master.

Access Right for Minimum stock level

Hi all,
I would like to know if there is a way to set access right to enalbe or disable user from modify the minimum stock level in the item master data.
Thank you.
Regards

I would like to know if there is a way to set access right to enalbe or disable user from modify the minimum stock level in the item master data.
as I have said, you can use SP_TN to disable some certain users to modify the minimum inventory level value. here is an example:
IF @transaction_type IN ('A', 'U') AND
@Object_type = '4'
begin
if exists (SELECT distinct t0.docentry FROM oitm T0 INNER JOIN oUSR T1 ON T1.internal_k
= t0.usersign
WHERE isnull(t0.minlevel,'') <> '0' and t1.user_code = 'manager')
begin
select @Error = 10, @error_message = 'Min level can not be updated by user manager'
end
end
but I also said that you can use SDK code i.e. SAP B1 addon to disable the users to modify the minimum inventory level field. It is more complicated because you need to use programming language e.g. VB.Net to do that. The programming language will use the B1 DI API as project reference.
You must have SDK development license to develop such addon.

Minimum stock level per warehouse and MRP

Hello experts
We have tested minimum stock level per warehouse and try to use it for the MRP but it seems that the MRP uses for a specific warehouse the consolidated minimum level
For example
WSE 1 minimum stock level 10
WSE 2 minimum stock level 5
MRP runs for WSE 2 recommandation is calculated based on 15 pieces of minimum stock level (WSE 1+2)
Could you please tell me if this is normal behavior and the use of minimum stock level per warehouse is not possible ?

Hi.....
SAP gives recomendation on Overall stock basis and not on Minimum Inventory of Particular Warehouse.
It is standard behavior. But SAP should think of it as it is not right recomendation if someone tries to view it as per warehouse.......

User-exit to control minimum stock in PSA with LP12

Hi,
Anyone have an ideia about an User-exit in LP12 used to control minimum stock in production supply areas. Regardind the minimum stock defined in the WM2 view in the material master when we run transaction LP12 the program should take in account that minimum stock and provide the PSA with the right quantity.
Any clue about this?
Many thanks.

Check the user exit USEREXIT_PRICING_CHECK or USEREXIT_CHANGE_PRICING_RULE in include MV61AFZA for your requirement.

Minimum stock of raw material

Hai gurus,
My requirement is as follows:
1) My fert material consist of 5 ROH
2) The stock of all the ROH is to be maintained for minimum two days production qty.( 2 days inventory stock)
How to maintain this minimum stock of ROH and control under SAP
waiting for the positive reply.
Regards
sekar chand

Hai Bhramankar,
Thanks for your rpely.
In my case the material required for next three months is planned and procured by MM guys
after MRP run .
So the procurement is done and material is stored in central warehouse, and raw material required
for the next two days production is issued to production ROH stores and maintained as stock to avoid
any shortage for final production.
If it so how can we bring this scenario into SAP and keep track of total stock at central warehouse and two
days dynamic stock by the shop floor people
waiting for your detail reply.

How can I include the minimum stock of storage location in the mrp run.

Hi all,
I have in plant 1030 storage location 1001 and 1006.
MRP1 Lot Size = EX
           MRP type = PD
           Reorder Point = 5
MRP2 Safety Stock = 5
MRP4 for 1001 is not filled
MRP4 for 1006 Sloc MRP Ind = 2
                         Reorder point = 2
                         Replenishment qty = 3
If no stock and I run the mrp I get
a PurRqs for 8 with a automatic MtlRes of 3 going to storage loc 1006
If I create a reservation in 1006 for 10 units and run the MRP again
a PurRqs for 15 with a MtlRes of 10 going to storage loc 1006.
I want the result to be PurRqs for 18 with a MtlRes of 13 going to storage loc 1006.
10 for the reservation and 3 to fill storage loc 1006 with the replenishment qty.
How can I acheive this?
Best Regards!
Curtis

Hello Curtins
Please observe what is stated on question 6 of FAQ note 550954, regarding storage locations planned separately:
6. Question:
    A storage location should be planned separately. Is it possible to
    consider external requirements?
    Answer:
    No. The storage location MRP is a very simple reorder point planning
    procedure, during which only reorder point and replenishment
    quantity are defined. More complex settings can be implemented via
    storage location MRP areas.
Therefore, I'd suggest you to use MRP areas to map this scenario.

Dear Experts,
Following are the steps i performed in order to receive email alert
1. Created a user with email id.
2. I selected minimum stock deviation alert.
3. I checked both internal and email.
4. Did a goods receipt and a sales invoice to trigger the relevant alert.
5. Internal got triggered now wish to know how to get the same through email.
6. Is there any references available from SAP?
7. Can SBO Mailer be used for the same? Do guide.
As guided further these steps were also followed,
1. SBO Mailer setup
2. Give SMTP server in the general settings.
3. Test connection proved successful
4. Checked Send notification by internal mail
5. Connect Database
6. Schedule based on minute
In spite of all these done the alert did not generate through Email. The version imy client is on is SAP B1 2007B PL15, Could you be kind enough to guide how the same can be perfomed.

User defined alert

Hi Dear;
i create a new alert.
how can i set this alert to fire when i add a new document (as the predefined alert)
regards;

Hi Dany,
Use the alert function to have the system automatically notify selected users in SAP Business One whenever certain system events occur. There are two types of Alerts, predefined alerts and user-defined. In addition, approval procedures also generate alerts if their conditions are met. Messages triggered by alerts can be sent internally, or externally by e-mail, SMS message, or fax.
Alerts are optional and can be modified, deactivated or removed at any time.
The following pre-defined Alerts are available for immediate use:
Deviation from Credit Limit: Each business partner can have a predefined discount percentage. This Alert is triggered when a quotation or other type of document varies from this Credit Limit.
Deviation from Commitment: Alerts when the Commitment limit, as defined by the sum of the credit limit and the cheques received but not cashed yet is breached.
Deviation from % of Gross Profit: The conditions for the Profit Percentage in the document can be defined in the Conditions tab of the Alerts Management window. This Alert is triggered when a document has a gross profit less than this value.
Deviation from Discount (in %): Each BUSINESS PARTNER can have a predefined discount percentage. This Alert is triggered when the discount for a certain document varies from this discount.
Deviation from Budget: Alerts when a new Purchase Order is calculated and a divergence from the budget occurs.
Minimum Stock Deviation: Detects when the inventory for an Item falls below the minimum level, which has been defined in the Item Master Record.
For the above predefined alerts, the user can decide which documents to check and therefore limit or expand the scope of the alert.
Alerts just notify the appropriate parties. They do not stop a document from being posted. The notified user can reply to the alert using the messaging function and this reply like the original alert can be sent internally, or externally via e-mail, SMS message, or fax
To display the Alerts, if Saved History has been chosen in the Alerts Management window, choose Window Messages/Alerts Overview.
Hope it helps.
