Multiple BoMs for Same FG and Subcontracting Vendor

Hello Gurus, I have a situation where client get job-work done for a finished good with multiple BoMs .... It is only decided at the time of creating PO when they decide which components/ child items to be used (Product Version). Even if the check for update info record is unchecked, the system don't ask for the choice 2nd time the subcontracting PO is drafted. Please guide what can be done under such circumstances.

Hi,
Please check how the alternative BOM can be determined (automatically):

(assign the BOM to production version (C223) >> assign the production version to info record (ME12))

(lot size; selection date; production version)
Please check OSS note 458606:
1. Question
You work with production versions for selecting bill of material alternatives. How are they determined for SC purchase requisitions or SC purchase orders?
Answer:
Purchase Orders:
In purchasing, the production versions are assigned in the subcontracting purchasing info record. When you create an SC purchase order, the system determines the SC purchasing info record from the combination of vendor and material, and reads the production version. This is then included in the document. It is not possible to manually change the production version in the SC purchase order.
If you create the SC purchase order with reference to an SC purchase requisition, the system checks whether the production version from the SC purchase requisition matches the version determined from the SC purchase order.
If the production verions differ, the system displays a dialog box and the user can decide whether the production version from the SC purchase requisition is to be transferred or whether the BOM is exploded using the newly determined production version from the SC purchasing info record.
A selection of the production versions by date or similar is not available in purchasing.

Bom for production order and subcontracting

Dear guru ,
I have a finished material that can be use both produced in-house and procured externally with subcontracting.
Now i use one only bom with usage 1 (production ) for the two process.
I have a problem for one component.
For subcontracting i must consider this component as a phantom (with explosion of its components) , instead for the in-house production I must consider this component as a normal stock item.
Can I use only one bom or I must create an alternative bom for manage the two cases ?
Thanks for your help.

Dear CRIS,
In my understanding this may create discrepancies during the material transfer from own stock to the vendor and also during
month end checking process.
What's the problem of maintaining that component as a stock item?why it should be treated as a phantom only for sub-
contracting?
Even if you are maintaining 2 different alternative BOM's for the final product one with the component as a normal assembly and
the next one as a phantom,you will be facing issues during costing purpose and material inventory also.
Come back with your further questions.

Differ Bom For Production order and Subcontracting

Dear all
Is there any process to defined BOM for Subcontracting & production Order separately and how can we make the Bom For Both case ,If it is possible then how can we choose in the production order for in house production and also for subcontracting for purchase order.

Hi,
After giving 'X' in the procurment type, maintain quota arrange usage as '4'.
Then use T.code meq1, for creating quotas.
Give the material no. & then give validdity date. Double click the validity date, this will take you to another screen.
Here give the procurment type as internal production, the %quota & the prod version in the 'Version field'& then in the second row choose external procurement & choose sub-contracting in the special procurement field, then enter the %quota & prod version in the 'version' field.
After this in T.code omi4 (for lot-size), check if the lot size you use has got a tick in the splitting quota. If not check this indicator & then run mrp. Based on the quota %, pl order & pur req will be created.

How to avoid multiple listing for same artist?

How to avoid multiple listing for same artist?

Sounds like there might be blanks in the artist name.
For instance "Lou Reed" and "Lou Reed_" will not match.
(Pretend the underscore _ is a blank).
Select all the Lou Reed songs, Get Info, and type "Lou Reed" in the artist field. That should fix it.

Creating multiple profiles, using unified profile types, to store multiple values for same properties

Hi All:
I am trying to create multiple profiles, using unified profile types, to
store multiple values for same properties. Here my intention of using
'unified profile types' is to create multiple profiles (to store multiple
values for a property). All the properties are stored in the same database
maintained by Personalization server. Also, I am trying to use the same
'USER' ejb as profile class/home/pk/jndi.
The scenerio is,
define unified profile types (Business, Vacation) using Personalization
admin tools, using com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.User,
com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.UserHome,
com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.UserPk,
com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.User for Profile Class, Home, Pk class,
JNDI name respectively.
Define Property set 'HotelCommerce' with property
HotelProp as single, restricted, text (valid values Single, Double)
Now you can use the attached jsp files to login as a user and try to set the
property value for HotelProp for each profile. As per my understanding, I
was expecting that I can set different values for the property 'HotelProp'
for each profiles. But unexpectedly, all the profiles get the same value.
Question. is it the correct behavior? if yes, how can I achieve this
functionality?
if not, do you see any problem in my scripts?
your answer asap is appreciated. we need to make decision on using
Personalization server v/s developing our own Personalization server!!!:)
thanks,

This is not the purpose of the UUP. The UUP is used to allow existing
database schemas to be aggregated with the existing Weblogic Personalization
Server database schema to provide a single, customized user profile with which
to maintain the user properties (
http://e-docs.bea.com/wlcs/p13n/users.htm#1068901 )
If you want to have properties that change value based on some "profile" or
classification of a user, then you should use classifier rules to change the
user from "OnVacation" to "AtWork" or "AtHome". You can use these classifier
rules to select content for the user or conditionally execute logic (

How to create multiple BOM of same parent item?

Hi All,
Please guide me, How to create multiple BOM of same parent item? I tried but system throws a message as same Parent Item already exist in the table. I am afraid if system supports this functionality or not?

Hi,
You are welcome.......
Well the exact process would be as I mentioned in my previous post.
1. Create the BOM for an item
2. Choose this item in the Production Order
3. Then in this Production order you can change/ delete/ add whichever item you want .
OR
If all the child items are completely different from the original BOM then you can use the Special Type BOM in which you can always create the BOM while creating the Production Order itself. There is no standard BOM here.

Creation of Multiple Activities for same Employee,same day and same time

Hi Experts,
In CRM 2007 I am creating an Activity(e.g Customer Visit) for a particular day for a particular employee. I am selecting the Option "Whole Day".
When again I am creating another Activity same day and for same employee the ideally system should not allow me to create further activities as I have already scheduled for the whole day but its is allowing me to create as many activities i want irrespective of Time frame.
I want to block overlappped activities created for same emloyee same time.
Can you please suggest me with your ideas inorder to achieve same???
Regards
Arup

Hello,
If there is no standard solution you can implement the BADI : CRM_ORDERADM_H_BADI
Here you can see when a new activity is created, and then maybe you can cancel the creation or even replace the new activity by the existing one.

ME01 LSMW multiple record for same material issue.

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with multiple record for the same material and plant when I upload the data from the file. Lets I have the records.
Material        Plant              Start date      Enddate        Vendor          Porg.
1     0010     20060101     99991231     2     0010
1     0010     20060101     99991231     3     0010
When I upload the above data there are 2 IDOCs created when I am using the method LSMW-IDOC method, but only last record is getting updated and the first one is not getting updated in ME01 souce list. But I am getting the success message for both IDOC in LSMW. So I am not sure how to fix this why only last record is updated and not other records??

why do you have 2 idocs?
wouldn't be 1 idoc with 2 items be more logical?
1 record in structure E1EORDH
and 2 records in structure E1EORDM
I believe your 2 IDOCs get posted, but I think your 2nd Idoc overwrites the values entered from the first IDOC.

How can I combine multiple listings for same genre on iTunes 11?

When I downloaded the newest iTunes version 11, I suddenly had multiple listings for the same genre. I literally have 63 genre listings for "Trance"; 4 listings for "Hip-Hop/Rap" and a few others. There was obviously not a problem with the old iTunes version as they were all grouped together. I do get music from several sources but I have no idea how to combine all my "Trance" listings into one. It takes longer to scroll through the "Trance" genres than the rest of my genres combined. I tried to individually change one the "Hip-Hop/Rap" listings by using the "Get Info" tab and typing in the genre until iTunes can autofill the rest but the problem remains. Any ideas how to combine all these into one genre without compromising the genre name? Thanks

I believe the closest you can come is look at your songs in Songs. There you can sort by albums.
The album view does not contain a list view any longer.

Finalize() method being called multiple times for same object?

I got a dilly of a pickle here.
Looks like according to the Tomcat output log file that the finalize method of class User is being called MANY more times than is being constructed.
Here is the User class:
package com.db.multi;
import java.io.*;
import com.db.ui.*;
import java.util.*;
* @author DBriscoe
public class User implements Serializable {
    private String userName = null;
    private int score = 0;
    private SocketImage img = null;
    private boolean gflag = false;
    private Calendar timeStamp = Calendar.getInstance();
    private static int counter = 0;
    /** Creates a new instance of User */
    public User() { counter++;
    public User(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
        counter++;
    public void setGflag(boolean gflag) {
        this.gflag = gflag;
    public boolean getGflag() {
        return gflag;
    public void setScore(int score) {
        this.score = score;
    public int getScore() {
        return score;
    public void setUserName(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
    public String getUserName() {
        return userName;
    public void setImage(SocketImage img) {
        this.img = img;
    public SocketImage getImage() {
        return img;
    public void setTimeStamp(Calendar c) {
        this.timeStamp = c;
    public Calendar getTimeStamp() {
        return this.timeStamp;
    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
        try {
            if (obj instanceof User) {
                User comp = (User)obj;
                return comp.getUserName().equals(userName);
            } else {
                return false;
        } catch (NullPointerException npe) {
            return false;
    public void finalize() {
        if (userName != null && !userName.startsWith("OUTOFDATE"))
            System.out.println("User " + userName + " destroyed. " + counter);
    }As you can see...
Every time a User object is created, a static counter variable is incremented and then when an object is destroyed it appends the current value of that static member to the Tomcat log file (via System.out.println being executed on server side).
Below is the log file from an example run in my webapp.

It really does seem to me like finalize is being called multiple times for the same object.
That number should incremement for every instantiated User, and finalize can only be called once for each User object.
I thought this was impossible?
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks...
I am already thinking of ideas to limit the number of threads.
Unfortunately there are two threads of execution in the servlet handler, one handles requests and the other parses the collection of User objects to check for out of date timestamps, and then eliminates them if they are out of date.
The collection parsing thread is currently a javax.swing.Timer thread (Bad design I know...) so I believe that I can routinely check for timestamps in another way and fix that problem.
Just found out too that Tomcat was throwing me a ConcurrentModificationException as well, which may help explain the slew of mysterious behavior from my servlet!
The Timer thread has to go. I got to think of a better way to routinely weed out User objects from the collection.
Or perhaps, maybe I can attempt to make it thread safe???
Eg. make my User collection volatile?
Any opinions on the best approach are well appreciated.

Need to concatonate multiple values for same key columns into one string

Hi...I'm attempting to use PL/SQL to read through a table containing more than one column value for a set of keys, and concatonate those values together into one string. For example, in the STUDENT table, for a STUDENT_ID there are multiple MAJORS_ACCOMPLISHED such as History, Biology and Mathematics. Each of the majors is stored in a different row with the same STUDENT_ID due to different faculty DEPARTMENT values.
I want to read through the table and write out a single row for the STUDENT_ID and
concatonate the values for MAJORS_ACCOMPLISHED. The next row should be another STUDENT_ID and the MAJORS ACCOMPLISHED for that student..etc.
I've hit a wall trying to use cursors and WHILE loops to get the results I want. I'm hoping someone may have run across this before and have a suggestion. Tks!!

I think you are looking for string aggregation.

Multiple entries for same apps showing next to 'Open With' in contextual menu since last backup

I did a back up of my MBPs internal drive recently, using Carbon Copy Cloner - since then there are multiples of the same icons for all apps under 'Open With' in the contextual menu. I seem to remember there being a command line that could be entered in Terminal to fix this, but I can't find it anywhere.
Can anyone help?

Yes, LaunchServices. These are only cache files but can get corrupted. Launch /Utilities/Terminal and copy & paste this at the command line to rebuild LaunchServices: (be sure to copy the entire line it's a scroll)
Code:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
Then press return. Wait until terminal returns to the command line. Quit Terminal. After that, log out and back in or restart. Let us know

Muliple inspection plan for same material and same usage

Hi,
I need to create multiple inspection plans for same material with same usage.during the inspection lot creation i need to select any one inspection plan.
In standard SAP its not possible.Any user exits available for this..
Regards,
S.P.Selvathangam

Dear Selvathangam Palanisamy ,
My Dear Shayamal is absolutely correct and we are corrently using this SAP facility. You can create 'N' number of inspectio plans for a material and then whenever the inspection lot will created ( Thru a process order or Manual) then you will get the Inspection Lot Status 'CRTD' (Created mode) then you have to select your Inspection Task list manually by two way...
Either go to QA02 and then select it from the list of multiple plans.
Or you can directly go from QA32 ...select your inspection lot row and directly click on the Inspection Lot icon to go directly to the inspection lot window to slect the Task list.
Further there is no need to remove the Automatic Assignment from the QM View of the Material Master as if there is only one task List then system will automatically assign the TASK LIST, if you deselect it then you have to select in every case.
Thanks

Skip lot across multiple batches for same material

Hi,
I am looking for a way to control skip lots across multiple batches for the same material.
We need to do a quality check in production after a certain quantity produced (on a machine, for a material). My idea was to do skip lots (for GR) until we reach a threshold (say 10.000 pcs) and then do an inspection for the next GR for that material.
Any ideas how to set that up?
Thanks for any hint
Andreas

Hi mergler,
Ref to your query pls check this link Stock Posting for Skip Lots
Thanks in advance
