MRP for Non-stock and mechanical items

Hi all,
How MRP takes care of Mechanical items which are not in BOM
Regards,
Sravan

Hi,
If the material is not a item in the BOM, system will not plan for planning.
For that you can use reorder point planning MRP type VB. If the stock level goes below reorder point, system will create P.R in next MRP run.

BOM explosion in MRP for non-stock material

Dear friends,
I have a non-stock(bom item category 'N') service material setup as a component in my production BOM, which during MRP run, should create a Planned order or Purchase requisition for that non-stock component. But, when I run MRP for the top-level material, it doesn't create any requirement for that service material, while all other stock material(Bom item category L), it generated dependant requirements.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks
Suri

Dear Suri,,
Please go through this.
Non-Stock Items Use this item category if you want to enter a
material that is not kept in stock before use, and that is only procured for a
specific planned order or production order.
The material is only rarely required for a custom-made product and is used
directly in the product as a purchased part.
Before you start
You can enter a non-stock item either with or without a material master. If you
enter a non-stock item without a material master, you must enter a description.
For non-stock items, you have to maintain purchasing data in the bill of material.
You enter the following materials as non-stock items because the quantities are
not updated in the material master record:
o Materials with a material type that supports configuration
o Pipeline materials, which can be taken from a pipeline at any time

Special functions
The following functions are supported for non-stock items
 You maintain purchasing data for non-stock items in the bill of material.
 In the planning run, the system generates purchase requisitions
instead of dependent requirements for components that are procured directly.
When you configure your R/3 System for MRP, you can define whether direct
procurement is triggered by the planning run or by production order management.
 Product costing processes take valuation data from the BOM item.
The system determines the release strategy on the basis of the price data you
enter. The material group is required to produce a purchase requisition.

Automatic PR for non-stock BOM component for Subcontract PO

Dear Guru,

Thank you very much,

Hi,
You can use Material Type "NLAG" for Non-stock materials.
Non stock materials cannot be stored, right, hence the name non-stock.
Non-stock material includes materials that are not managed on an inventory basis (for example, small parts such as nails) though physically in stock.
You can create a BOM which contains an NLAG item or directly use in Production order also.
item Category "N" So system will create the purchase requisition when there is requirement.
We receive the non stock material using movement type 101. upon receiving the material will be consumed.
Please refer link below for better understanding.

2.The G/L account on the consumption is OK
3.When I post GR for the PO Item (non stock consumption ), system is autoposting default the GR/IR Services G/L account ie the same G/L account (GR/IR Services ) that is posted when a SES is approved for the Services PO
3.Pl. note the Item category I have used is Std.(blank) for the PO raised for non stock consumption item .
My concern:
1.Is this system default behaviuor??
2.i e system will auto post at the time of GR , to the same G/L account (GR/IR Services) for both the consumption item (non stock item procured for cost center/order..via material PO .). and the services PO (for services procured via Services Item category 'D').???
Pl. help suggest.Matter most urgent!!
Thanks,
Ranganath Krishna

Hi,
Please check up if there is any default value at the plant level;in case of such default,the system will post to the GL Account defaulted,not with standing the "standard item category".Better checkup if any cost center /order has been assigned.
The GL item is defaulted thro'the item category.If both the goods and services have been defaulted to the same GL Account,then not with standing the type [ie] whether goods or services,the system will post tot he same GL Acct.
Hope this helps.

MIGO Print label WEE1 for non stock items from GR for PO

Hi,
I added logic to print new label into printing program MZ07DETI which is printing labels for stock items. My label is for non stock items. The problem is that for non stock items printing process is not triggered. I created PO with Account Assign. Category F, P or K no material number and no storage location. For this type of PO no print possible during GR posting. Is any set up available in IMG to make it work. I appreciate any response.

For non Stock items ?

Hi ,
For non stock items (which do not have material code ) , what price we will put in PR ?
In live scenario, suppose a requestor from HR dept is raising a PR for non stock material.
Suppose the material is procuring for first time in that company .
He doesnt know the price for that .
So what price he will put in the PR?
Please tell me in live scenarios , what people used o do ?
regards,

Hello Sandeep,
While creating purchase requisition, normally user dept will put the approximate price for that material/service. sometime user will put even price as 0.01 (currency) also in PR and purchasing dept will put the negotiated price at the time of Purchase order creation.
Hope this helps.

Delivery date for Non stock items

Hi,
While creating Maintenance order for Non stock items in component screen planned delivery time fld comes. Here
I put 10 days. But system creates PR with delivery date as today's date ie order creation date.
Actually delivery date should be 20.09.2009.
Waiting for your valuable inputs.
Thanks
Prasad

Hi,
The requisition delivery date is dependent on the operation start date. System does not consider the planned delivery time when calculating this delivery date.
The delivery date is based on the following calculations:
- The start date of the operation
- Minus Goods receipt processing time of the component
- Plus or Minus Lead time offset for the component in the order
The above values can be adjusted to manipulate delivery date.
As mentioned, It is also possible to influence this date by implementing exit COZF0002.

Auto G/L population for Non Stock Items

Hi,
I am trying to configure the Auto G/L Population for Non stock item (Material Master item).I have created the Material without Valuation class assignment.
Master data:
Material 1(Material type : Non Stock,No valuation class assignment,attached with Material Group X)
Material group X is attached with Valuation class (Entry aid for items without material master)
In OBYC -->Transaction GBB with modifier VBR maintained the G/L for the relevant valuation class.
I am expecting to default that G/L in Purchase requisition creation screen. But system is not defaulting the G/L account.
Is there anyother steps involve to achieve the G/L default for NON STOCK Materials without assigning the valuation class to Material master.

Hi,
You can set with the help of t.codes:
OME9, OMGO,& OBYC.
Check the below link how to set default General Ledger for Non stock item (Material Master item) in purchasing document

Adding Cost of Sales for Non-Stock articles to POS Inbound Pricing Schema

Hi guys
I'm working on a requirement to derive the Cost of Sales for non-stock items by pulling the current cost for the site and multiplying it by the billed quantity on VBRP. We could create a new condition type using purchase org, article and site in the condition table and manually enter condition records. However it would be more elegant to copy prices from the Purchasing list or deal prices into new condition types in the POS inbound pricing procedure. However SAP standard doesn't seem to allow condition copying from purchasing to sales.
Regards
Brett

Hi ,
As it happens you need to do this for Non-Stock Articles only.... then you need a routine to do this .
And then in IS -Retail do we not use NETPrice or Final Cost Price to derive the Sales Price ... In that case you get the Cost Price when the Billing doc is getting posted at line level...

Excise invoice issue for non stock orders

Hi,
We are unable to create excise invoice for non stock materials. When we try to create excise invoice with refernce to the billing document, the following error appears (message no 81681: reference document of 2917 is not delivery document). This process was working properly before updating patches, but after the updation, we are not able to generate excise invoice for non stock materials. (FYI: In the case of non stock order we are using order related billing). Any solution to resolve this error??
regards
John

For sales with material type NLAG, Item category TAX and schedule line category CX contain the standard settings along with copy control settings (VTFL, item level requirement 004) that suit your case.

Moving Average Price for non stock material

Hi All,
We are looking at loading a large number of material masters for items that will not be stocked - i.e. an account assignment will always be provided during purchasing.
When we load these materials - what should the moving average price on the accounting tab be set to? If we put an estimated price in - then when we purchase we will get a warning if the variance between the purchase price and the moving average price is too great. And then when the material changes in price (in lets say a year because the vendor has increased prices by 10%) we can no longer update the moving average price.
What is the best practice in this scenario?
Kind Regards,

non stock material (standard material type NLAG) does in general not have accounting views, hence it has no fields for moving average prices.
however it can be customized to have an accounting view, we did it too. This servers the requisition process, with accounting view the price defaults to the requisition. without accouting view, the valuation price needs to be entered manually by a user in the requisition.
The MAP gets only updated if the stock is posted to inventory, which will never be the case for non-stock material, because of this you should always be able to change the MAP directly in the material master with MM02, or if not possible in MM02 with MR21.

Automatic PR to PO conversion for non stock material

Hi,
Can Automatic PR to PO conversion be done for non stock material (with account assignment category and no material master).
We are presently doing only for stock material with transaction ME59N.
Thanks and Regards,
Pratap

Some of the pre-requisites for automatic generation of PO from PR are
1. The system selects only those requisitions for automatic PO generation for which the indicator Automatic purchase order has been set for both the material and the vendor.
2. It can only generate purchase orders from requisitions to which a unique source of supply has already been assigned.
So material master is mandatory if you want to create PO automatically from PR and you need to activate this option both at vendor and material master.

Subcontract PO/PR does not generate PR for non stock component

Hello,
I need help on above topic.
SAP Version is ERP Central Component 5.0.
My problem is that PR is not being generated for non stock component in PR/PO of higher/parent material.
I notice that in component overview screen the item cat for this non stk comp. has changed to T( text item) even though the BOm has been maintained with item cat as N( non stock). The material type being used for non stk material is custom developed(copy of NLAG).
Has anyone faced similar issue. or can suggest some missing customization (if any)
Just to confirm :
I have done customising for Direct procurement in OPPQ to trigger PR in requirements planning. Also tried with prod order creation option(though my case is PO creation)
Any help from forum is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ram

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NON-STOCK AND NON-VALUATED MATERIALS

HI ALL,
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NON-STOCK AND NON-VALUATED MATERIALS. WHY THESE TYPE OF MATERIALS ARE COMING UNDER COST CENTER AND WHEN CREATING PO FOR THIS TYPE PARTICULAR MATERIALS WHY WE ARE NOT MAINTAINING PRICE, MEANS WHY WE ARE DEFINING THE PRICE FOR THIS PARTICULAR MATERIALS?

Hi,
Hi,
non-valuated material (Material Type UNBW):
This type of material is managed on a quantity basis, but not on a value basis. This makes sense for materials of low value, stocks of which nevertheless have to be monitored (for example, operating manuals).
Non-stock material (NLAG) (Material Type NLAG):
Inventory management is not possible for these materials either on a quantity or value basis. For frequently required consumables, the use of this material type nevertheless enables you to store the information required to create
purchasing documents (such as texts and units of measure).
When a material is procured directly for consumption, no material master record is necessary. In connection with consumable materials, you can distinguish between the following cases:
Consumable material without material master record
Consumable material with material master record that is not subject to
inventory management (on either a quantity or value basis)
Consumable material with material master record that is subject to inventory management on a quantity, but not a value, basis

2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.
4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.
5) Create a Purchase Requisition.
