Missing Retention node in Material management in SAP SPRO

Hi All,
In my SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 system, Retention node in Material management in SPRO is missing.
I did checked on IDES EHP4 system and its present over there.
Can i know, from where to get this missing node? Do i need to activate any BC Sets?
FYI...We upgraded ECC system with Central Components only while upgrading to EHP4.

Hi Pankaj,
Thx for reply, i activated as you said, but this is still not solved and i cant see Retention Node..
FYI...In IDES system i can see under Materials management -->Logistics Invoice Verification --> Incoming invoice.
After this activation do i need to do any more steps from Basis team?

Material Management on SAP MINWAS 610

Hi Folks
I had installed the test demo version of SAP MINIWAS 610 on my system.
My question is can I access the MM or anyother modules like FI CO in this WAS 610 version ?
if not above can I actually access any basic module of R3 system or is WAS 610 mainly aimed at BSP and ABAP langauages only ?
would appreciate if anyone can share their knowledge and experiences on the same
Thanks
Pat

The MiniWAS 610 (although you should go to 620 now!!) is just the Basis system no modules.
The 620 is a bit more flexible but still no modules, have a look here for some things done with the MiniWAS 620:

Differences between SAP R/3 ECC 6 & SAP R/3 4.6C in Material management mod

Dear Friends,
Please mail to me the differences between SAP R/3 ECC 6 & SAP R/3 4.6C in Material Material management module.
With regards

Hi Vasmi
There is lot of Diffenence Between ECC 6.0 & 4.6 C
1-in 4.6 C Country India Version(CIN) is add on Separatelly
while after 4.7 E up to ECC 6.0 CIN is integrated Part of SAP. that is the measure difference as per my knowledge
2-ECC 6.0 have more functionality in terms of transaction for example
if you do MIGO for PO then you can capture and post the excise invoice in the same transaction while in case of 4.6 C that feature is not available
these two are major as far as MM is concern
there are many others feature also
Thanks

How to find out if a Product is HU or non HU managed in SAP EWM ?

Hi All,
Sorry for a naive question. But i tried to google this thing but couldn't find much material on SAP EWM.
How do i know if a Product is HU managed or non HU managed in SAP EWM ?

you can control per storage type whether an HU is allowed or not.
so you do not assign the HU but a setting if HUs are allowed or not.
You can create a new HU in various processes e.g. picking or packing. It's not possible to list all possibilities here.
What process are you trying to execute?

Material transfer from SAP R/3 to SAP Business One is blocked

Hello experts,
Please I need your help for the following scenario:
Our client has B1iSN and SAP R/3 in the headquarter company and B1if and SAP B1 in the subsidiary. The material transfer from SAP R/3 to SAP Business One failed and the following message is diplayed:
Result message :
com.sap.b1i.xcellerator.XcelleratorException: XCE001 Nested exception: com.sap.b1i.bizprocessor.BizProcException: BPE001 Nested exception: com.sap.b1i.xcellerator.XcelleratorException: XCE001 Nested exception: com.sap.b1i.xcellerator.XcelleratorException: XCE001 Nested exception: java.lang.RuntimeException: DI Error: (-2028) No matching records found (ODBC -2028)
The Material database transfer is blocked due to message in status
failure which block all other messages.
We tried to restart the server (Business One and B1iSN) but it didnu2019t solve the issue.
Any idea please? Thank you.

Hi Nadia,
did you check the WRITE-POLICY settings of your scenario?
when reading the displayed DI Error message, it looks like B1iSN is trying to update an B1 item which does not exists.
Please open SAP B1iSN Tools -> Development Tools -> Graphical scenario Design and select your Bizpackage, BizStep and BIUMETA.
Open the WRITE-POLICY symbol and check the entries:
Insert on Exist = error or fallback2U
Update on Miss = fallback2I
The Update Policy should stay to value regular.
To activate changes of the WRITE-POLICY please deactivate, modify and reactivate your Business Process instance.
If a WRITE-POLICY change has no effect, please check your data mapping (BIU) and especially the parameter <QueryParams>, which mustn't be filled for "insert/Add" operations into B1.
Best regards
Bastian

It's hard to say without seeing the code for TreeTable. But they probably have something like an addNode mothod for the TreeTableNode which will take care of all the updates for you. If you want to do it youself, you will probably have to get the data Model (tree.getModel()???)behind the TreeTable and use one of the fire... methods on it like fireRowChanged(???) or fireTableChanged(???). I would suspect Sun would do it this way.

WHATS THE FLOW OF MATERIAL MANAGMENT IF YOU MAKE A PURACHASE ORDER ?

WHATS THE FLOW OF MATERIAL MANAGMENT IF YOU MAKE A PURACHASE ORDER ? PLEASE EXPLAIN IN DETAIL.
BEST REGARDS,
RYAN

Hi Ryan,
The t procurement cycle for a material consists of the following stages:
1. Determination of Requirements
Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via materials planning and control.
(This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based approach to inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of materials defined by master records,
use of the order-point method, and forecasting on the basis of past usage are important aspects of the latter.)
You can enter purchase requisitions yourself, or they can be generated automatically by the materials planning and control system.
2. Source Determination
The Purchasing component helps you identify potential sources of supply based on past orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements.
This speeds the process of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors electronically via SAP EDI, if desired.
3. Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations
The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios, allowing you to compare a number of different quotations. Rejection letters can be sent automatically.
4. Purchase Order Processing
The Purchasing system adopts information from the requisition and the quotation to help you create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions,
you can generate Pos yourself or have the system generate them automatically. Vendor scheduling agreements and contracts
(in the SAP System, types of longer-term purchase agreement) are also supported.
5. Purchase Order Follow-Up
The system checks the reminder periods you have specified and - if necessary - automatically prints reminders or expediters at the predefined intervals.
It also provides you with an up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations, and purchase orders.
Hope this is useful for u..
Reward points if useful..
Cheers!!!

6. Goods Receiving and Inventory Management
Goods Receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the Po number. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over- and underdeliveries of ordered goods.
7. Invoice Verification
The system supports the checking and matching of invoices. The accounts payable clerk is notified of quantity and price variances because the system has access to PO and goods receipt data. This speeds the process of auditing and clearing invoices for payment.
