MC87 and transfer through mc79..THis will create PIRs.. Then in MD02 you can run MRP..THe planned delivery time is an important parameter...

Blueprint for trading company

hi guru's
i got blue print for pharmaceutical company, can i use same blueprint for trading company?
in company how blue print is done?
can we edit same blueprint?
or we need to write this blueprint newly?
max compensation!!!!!!!!!
Edited by: dev on Dec 30, 2008 12:15 PM

Hi Dev,
Let me give you a brief understanding of what a business blueprint is. BBP is mothing but a detailed documentation of the organizations business process which it intends to do through SAP.
Before doing the BBP it is quite logical that the consultants need to understand the business processes of the company as it is done withpout SAP or in legacy system. This study and the documentation thereof is called "AS-IS study" document. The further reengineering of the processes depending on the best practices with an intent of doing the same in SAP is called "TO-BE document.
Traditionally both AS-IS and TO-BE document used to be aprt of BBP but these days there had been enough of advance tools such as Solution Manager through which the buisness blueprint is generated.
Hope with this bac\kground you would have understood that the BBP of a pharma comapny can never be used as a BBP for trading company because the two of them will have completely different business processes.
You can use the headings of the same BBP but the contenets will be entirely different for a trading company.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need any other help.

Sales & Operations Planning for Inter-company .

Hi
We have scenario like this : A will do the fore-cast , But A is not producing .
A wants to transfer the Forecast to B. B will produce and it owns the Inventory.
Once A get the Sales order , A will send the Inter-company sales process to B.
B will relive off the inventory and get paid by A.
How to transfer the SOP via demand management for Inter-company . How to consume the inter-company sales through demand management for Company B .
Any input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Jeevan

Dear
As i understood
A create a SOP and tranfer to DM, it will get netted off by sales order created in A. Since A is not producing material, system will create a intercompany PO/PR to get the material from B.
B say getting SOP data from A and tranfer it to DM. Run MRP/produce and satisfy the request of A.
Now your question is how to transfer this SOP plan to B from A.
it is simple
When you run MRP in A, if you have assigned a special procurement key in material master, in plant A, system will automatically create a intercompany PR to B.
Hence you will get the plan in B as per the given date and qty.
I hope you got the point...pl come back if required

Excise add-on for trading company

Hi,
My clinet is dealing in trading company . Most of the items are excisable items. If some one has documentation or add-on for the trading company, please guide me.
Thanks and Regards,
Rajeeve Agarwal

HI Rajeev,
Unfortunately, there is no standard document available for Trading Excise.
You can implement the complete trading procedure in SAP Business One without any add on too. There can be various scenarios which may arise if its a trading only or manufacturing and trading company. You have to study these in details (both sale and purchase side as they may purchase from traders too who may include the duties in the unit price and you have to calculate the duties in SBO and trust me this would be the tricky part ). There can be many a scenarios for purchase and relatively less for the sales side. I am saying this based on the experience which I have so far for implementing SBO for trading / manufacturing and trading companies.. You can create udf's and fms to capture the complete details.
It would not be possible to explain the complete process here. What you can do is that you can create threads in the forum for each question (scenario) that you have and you will get answers from the forum.
Hope helpful.
Thanks,
Joseph

Individual plan for a company

If I'm the only person in the company requiring an Adobe Cloud account, is it OK to opt for just an individual plan billed to the company?
Are there any (commercial) restrictions I should bear in mind? More specific, can my company charge customers for work developed by me using this individual plan?

MRP planning for external procurement

Dear all,
How do i make my system, upon MRP, trigger a purchasing requisition for external procurement of a external 3rd-party vendor?
How to setup this in the system and master data?
thanks,
tuffy

Dear Tuffy,
For all the externally procured items,maintain the procurement type as F in MRP2 view.
Maintain Purchase Info record for the material and vendor combination in ME11 and then assign the vendor for the material,plant
combination in the source list in ME01.
In this case the Purchase Info Record should be created for standard Info Record.
In the case of sub-contracting assign the procurement type as F and special procurement value as 30 in the MRP 2 view of the
material master and create Subc-ntracting Purchase Info Record in ME11 and assign the vendor in source list in ME01and source
list usage as 2 in both the cases.
The above sub-contracting is assembly sub-contracting process.
Check and revert

Creation of Budget Billing Plan for Countries with Tax Jurisdiction

Hello Experts,
When I create a budget billing plan for a company code with country Canada/USA and jursidiction TAXCAJ/TAXUSJ using transaction EA61, I get the message "Taxes with jurisdiction code not permitted with down payments"(Message no. >0194). The long text for this message says "Delete your entry in the field for jurisdiction code" Is any one aware where from this jurisdiction code should be deleted.
Is it possible to create budget billing plan for countries with jurisdiction code at all ?
Thanks in advance
Venkat

Hello Roopali,
What I learnt in the process of exploring the functionality is that Payment PLan (BBP or AMB) is the budget billing method for countries with Tax Jurisdiction. Statistical, Partial & Payment Scheme only works when jurisdiction is not defined for tax procedure. Payment scheme is the recommend procedure for Eurpopean market
Thanks for your clarification

Excise in Trading company

Hi
Plz give detail of handling excise in SAP B1 for trading company.As it is pass on to the customer so is excise levied in general manner as in case of manufacturing companies.
Thanks

Dear Mr. Malhotra,
Capturing Trading excise in SAP B1 is a tedious process, apart from just capturing excise values in purchase side and its corresponding movement in sales side, there are other things that needs to be taken care of like first stage sales and second stage sales depending on the traders and it can be locally manufactured goods or imported ones and there is lot of information that needs to be captured. Moreover the trading excise will not appear in actual book of accounts of the traders, but still it is part of the cost during purchase and the same has to be passed on while sales (Might sound a bit confusing, but that is how it works).
There is an addon available in the market for trading excise which can handle stage I and II excise transactions to include bonded warehouse concept and reports and registers such as RG23D, Form 2 sales, and Form 2 purchase etc., we have companies which are successfully using them already.
Contact me if you are interested.

MRP not considering open purchase orders when planning for open sales order

Dear Experts,
1.I have open sales orders as well as planned Independent requirements for finished goods for the current month. Also I have open puchase orders for raw materials which is part of the Bill of material of the finished goods for the current month.

There was no response to these questions so i had to close it to make space for another

Can we use MRP to plan for FERT in-house produced with PIR's & has Min/Max

Hi SAP Guru's
I have a very critical issue from the client who wants to use MIN/ MAX stock values for planning its finished products (in-house produced)
here is the details of the scenario
Client recieves 2 Excel files every week from customer
1st file contains the Weekly Demand Forecast of FERT material for next 1 year and they upload it in MD61 as PIR's BUT this value is also Inclusive of Safety stock value (ex: if weekly demand entered in MD61 as PIR is 50 and if safety stock value is 10, then actual demand is only 40)
2nd file send contains only safety stock values (for ex in this case let it = 10) to be maintained for the FERT materials
the client wants MRP to plan and trigger based on this PIR's in MD61 and Safety stock level fand plan for FERT, HALB and also ROH materials as defined in the BOM also taking into consideration the current WIP levels (Work in progress for any existing production orders currently being processed) based on the production Lead times values maintained
so what the client wants is they want to maintain 2 stock values, that is one least stock value and other higher value which if stock falls below this point, will trigger production based on the lead time and considering any WIP levels also
(for ex in this case if PIR = 50 and safety stock is 10, MRP run result client wants is = 30 and NOT =40)
so here are my questions
1. is this scenario feasible? use safety stock and min/max level for in-house produced finished which has demand PIRs in MD61 at the same time?
2. Also due to SOX complaince regulations, the client does not want to change the forecast values in MD61, so is it possible to make some settings so that forecast is corrected by WIThOUT including the safety stock value in it? ( for ex: in this case as = 40 only and NOt as 50)
3. which all settings should i maintain like for MRP type or lot size or stock qty levels or anyother customizations if any required so that when we run MRP, can it ignore the safety stock value and generate the client desired output?
thank u verymuch for your time & expert advice in advance

Hi Chakri,
This is not possible as per standard functionality. MRP always creates proposals for the shortage quantity of the safety stock. We have used the user exit in the plant level MRP run to exclude both plant and safety stock in the net requirements calculation.
You have to write logic to convert the safety stock into plant stock in the user exit so there will be no additional procurement proposals...you can create custom indicatar in materail master or linked any existing indicator like MRP group to the user exits so the MRP will checks this and will not create proposals for the selected parts.
If you have any questions then please inform.

MRP TYPE for Periodic planning in the material master.

Dear gurus,
i need planned the materials in the periodic modality, are there the type MRP in the material master for create the planned file ( table MDVM) one once a month or in the specific period chose ?
Example :
I need that the material master don't create a file planned ( MD20- TABLE MDVM) for a change of the requirement situation new , but i would like that the flag in the table ( MDVM) or file of the planning MRP created when the today date is in the period specific.
31.3.2011 (or period 1.4.2011- 10-4-2011)Date for the create a file MRP and after when run MRP planned the material, for others scenary the system must not planned the material.
Are there the MRP type for my problem? Or the customizing setting?
Thanks a lot
Dani

Dani,
Not sure if MRP type or customizing can help here. And even if we are able to achieve this requirement it will be applicable at plant level.
However, try exploring option of periodic lot size (weekly, monthly, etc). This will work according to period you've set and should give you the results you are looking for.

Himanshu
