Multiple 'F3' Quality Notifications for defects from single Service Order

Those of you working w/ the QM module no doubt know that if a failure is recorded against an inspection characteristic linked to a Production Order (Order category 10), that SAP standard functionality creates a Defect document (Quality Notification type 'F3'). Any subsequent failures recorded that are linked to that same Production Order (as well as the material & serial number) are recorded, as additional line item defectes, on that same 'F3' Quality Notification.
HOWEVER, I have found when failures are recorded against inspection characteristics for a Maintenance Order (Order Category 30), a new Defect document (Quality Notification type 'F3') is created for each failure that is recorded. Why is this?
My client wants only a single 'F3' Quality Notification to be created for any and all failures that are recorded against a single Maintenance Order. I do not see any way to accomplish this w/o a core mod. Understanding WHY SAP treats these two order categories differently will go a long way to assisting me in designing an adequate solution.
Thanks for your help.

A couple more pieces of information....
1. We are currently running SAP Enterprise (4.7).
2. If I go to SPRO -> 'Quality Management' -> 'Inspection Lot Creation' -> 'Maintain Inspection Types', and display the details for Inspection Type 14 (which we use for Service Orders) the check box for 'One Q-notification per insp. lot' is active. Clearly the system is not processing a single Quality Notification per inspection lot on service orders.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Happy New Year

How to sync user for planning from Shared Services

Hi ..
Can anybody please let me know how to sync users for planning from shared services.
Thank you.

You need to expand on your question.
But the basic concept is you create or connect (for LDAP) users in Shared Services. You also create groups as required for these users. Then in shared services you provision those user to Planning applications (directly or indirectly through groups)
Then in Planning you will see users or groups. And in planning you connect them to either members in dimensions or to objects like Forms, Task lists, Business Rules.
There is therefore no such thing as synching Shared Services with Planning.
Note: the 2 steps mentioned above can be done in batch through load utilities.
Please expand you question if necessary

Several service cofirmations can be possible from one service order Item

Dear Experts,
We create a service order with one service item and create a service confirmation via follow-up function.
After saving the service confirmation, the status of the service order Item is changed from "Released" into "Confirmed".
Even though the status of the service item is "Confirmed", we can create a new service confirmation
for the same item again and again until we set the status "Completed" in the service order header.
Is the system working as designed?
Could anyone advise how we can prevent the users from creating a new service confirmation
from the service item which has been already confirmed(the service order header status is still "Released")?
Any information would be highly appreciated.
F.T.

Hi Fumi
In standard process , multiple confirmations are possible for a single service order. there are number of reasons for this
1. Mutiple engg are working on single service order. and each engg post separate time and expenses in the confirmation
2. in case of service order which cannot be completed in a single day. and engg want to book the time daily
you can still restrict the user to create multiple confirmations using code.

Copy General Task List from one service order to another one

Dear Guru,
I have the following questions:
1- From a service order in IW32, how can I see the link between the operations and components?
2- I want to be able to copy all the operations and all the components contained in a service order into another service order for a similar type of equipment. Can someone help me step by step on what needs doing?

Christian

Hello Sebastian,
Many thanks for your quick reply indeed on this.
Now this is the catch: I know that I could create a new service order based on a previously created one using IW31, however in my department they are creating sales orders for equipments in the normal SAP SD flow.
In one the material line they enter a service material which is converted into a ZC03 (Service order) when saving the normal sales order which creates automatically a Service Order number.
Because they create a lot of those service order in that way, they want to be able to populate them with the same list of operations and relevant components all the time.
If they would be using IW31 to make copies, they would have to cancel the previously generated service order deriving from the regular Sales Order in SD which we want to avoid simply because it alters the original sales document flow.
Question:
1- I tried to copy the description of the task lists present in my service order thinking that would also copy the list of relevant and subsequent components defined for each task. The system has only copied the description of the tasks but not the components.
Is there a way we could copy a list of general tasks to automatically have those coming with the relevant components?
Please advise

You can use the BAPI 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN' for technical complete of service order.
Pass below parameters as input.
IT_METHODS :
Populate the values to methods
wa_methods-refnumber = '00001'.
wa_methods-objecttype = ''HEADER'.
wa_methods-method = ''TECHNICALCOMPLETE'
wa_methods-objectkey = v_aufnr. "Order number
APPEND wa_methods TO it_methods.
CLEAR : wa_methods.
Populate the values to methods
wa_methods-refnumber ='00001'.
wa_methods-objecttype = space.
wa_methods-method = 'SAVE'.
wa_methods-objectkey = v_aufnr. "Order number
APPEND wa_methods TO it_methods.
Afetr calling this BAPi call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT to commit the chnages to data base.
Hope this may be helpful.

Create multiple sales orders from single service notification?

Is it possible to create multiple sales orders from a single notification (IW51)?
We currently create sales orders directly within transaction IW51 (Create Service Notification). We kick off the sales order creation by pressing the "SALES ORD." button in the notification screen. We're now interested in creating a 2nd Sales Order which would tie directly to the same Service Notification. This is so that we can have the second order assigned to a different account assignment WBS (there are two different parties doing work on the service notification).
I assume you would have to go to VA01 to create the Sales Order, but am not sure how to tie it directly to the service notification from here. I treied to do a create with reference, but there is no ability to create with reference to a service notification.
Do I have to create a second service notification for the 2nd Sales Order for this to work? I want to avoid doing this if at all possible.
I'm running SAP R/3 Enterprise
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
go to vtaa- copy controls for sales document to sales document.
select your combination of order and quotation go to item level. There select value 0(zero) in field positive/negative negative.
No need to change update document flow.
After setting zero in copy control that be told on above. create order with respective to the quotation.
After saving the order.
go to document flow to see the status in between quotation and order.
If you placed setting right, then u certainly observe for quotation status will be open. so you can create no. of sales order with respect to that quotation..
Have a good day..

Customer Quality notification for multiple batches

Hi All,
Is there any way I can reference multiple Batches to single quality notification?
Present solution Proposed - Using user exit insert New Zfields to notification to enter Batch nos manually.
is there any other standard enhasment where multiple batch entry can be done!
Thanks in advance!
Jay

Dear Sadan,
There is a chance of happening this due to that field is marked as mandatory.
I hope this would happen, when Pm guy was making settings for the notification fields.
He might have made this filed mandatory w/o any reference of Notification type (Influencing in spro filed selection), If he doesnt select Influencing and Notification type, that field Mandatory will effect all the Notification types.
So please check with ur PM guy and change the field setting for Notifications and ask him to use Influencing - Notification type and desired notification type.

Quality notification for deviation

Dear Experts,
Can anyone brief the steps for allowing deviation for a product in inspection type:01?
how to get approval in SAP using QM01?
VRMP

Hi,
Enter trasaction QM01 and select the notification type A3
then enter the material document or p.o number;if both are not available still go inside the notification.
enter the material code for which you want deviation ; after that in subject tab enter the description for the approval, in Item tab enter defect and cause if any
then on next subject screen enter Department resp ,coordinator ,priority and Quantity and save the notification; after that from change mode send it to the respective authority from which u want approval.
it will go to his Inbox for approval,
then he will go to the change mode of that notification select Decision tab and then go to action box of that notification and click on special approval link and approve your deviation; for writing any other instruction long text is there; if any inspection lot is pending for this approval the approver can directly give usage decision from that action box screen and then send back notification to the co ordinator
I think all your doubts are cleared now if any left please revert back
Thanks

Deactivate Quality Notification During Defect Recording

Hi,
How will I deactivate the Quality Notification Tabs during Defect Recording? Because it is showing a red traffic light which user dont want to see and mis understood that there is something wrong.
Thank you,
Raymond

Hi
What you can do is remove the creation of automatic notification in the background.
QCC3->inspection lot creation>Maintain Inspection type->select inspec type--->remove defualt " notification type".
This will neither create notification nor give pop-up.

Best quality settings for transfer from comp to itunes library

What settings should I use to have the best quality sound when transfering from my computer to itunes?

Do you mean from CD to iTunes? Because if the songs are already on your computer, they probably don't need to be converted again. If you do mean from CD to iTunes, the answer is "whatever sounds best to you." I'm not trying to be flip. It's just that there's a wide range of preference. It's going to be affected by where you listen and the background noise, your headphones, your speakers, how good your hearing is and so on. I generally recommend that you rip the same track in a number of different bit rates in both AAC and mp3 and see what sounds best to you and (if space is an issue) what provideds the best compromise between good sound and small file size. Personally, I use 192 aac VBR. Sounds good on my iPods and on my JBL Creature speakers. I don't have a stereo.

If you want to create notification/ record defect during receiving inspection then in MIC control indicator select checkbox "Defect recording".
Now in SPRO maintain inspection type & QN relation at "Maintain Inspection type". So once you record reject result then system will give you notification pop-up.
If you want to customize QN then just go through this [link|Qualilty Notification Customization], where we have recently discussed this.
Let me know if you any specific concern.
Thanks!!!

Copy 'Services for Objects' from Quote to Order

Can anyone tell me a way to copy 'Services for Object' from a Quote to an Order when the order is created via reference to the quote. For a simple case, lets say we have an excel sheet attached to the quote via/under Services for Objects. When we create a Sales Order with reference to that Quote I want the attached excel sheet to be visible under The 'Services for Object' of the Sales Order.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mohanpreet,
Have you craeted a new field BA for lead and activity?
Is it also present in quotation and sales order?
If the coupy contol from lead to opportunity does pass on the field details, they must also get transfered from opportunity to quotation and sales order. Maintain the copy contro settings properly.
If the issue is still not resolved use BADI CRM_COPY_BADI for further enhancements.
Wish this is helpful.

Purchase Requisition from CRM Service Order

Hello Everybody,
I am trying to create Purchase requisition from Service Order for Service(Material type DIEN) as well as Material (Material type HAWA). I have maintained all the necessary configuration in CRM as well as ECC, like in CRM, Logistic integration we maintained settings for Purchase requisition and in ECC we have maintained Document type and schema for the purchase requisition.
For information purpose, I have created Service Material in ECC as DIEN and item category group as LIES.
As soon as we save the Service Order in CRM with that item category, it should create Purchase requisition in ECC and the document flow in CRM should get activated.
Currently we are not able to create Purchase requisition in ECC.
Kindly let me know if theres any configuration settings missing in CRM as well as ECC or if note to be applied.
Best regards,
Anup Bansal
