New business requirement for ECM changes to BOM item detail

Hello SAP ECM gurus,
I need your guidance on below requirement from the customer in ECM.
We have 'Date effectivity' in our system i.e. object changes become effective on 'valid from' date.
We also have a custom enhancement where BOM header status is controlled by the 'post approval' process via workflow.
i.e. BOM status is changed to 11 when 'Complete Change' status is set on OMR and changed back to '01' automatically when 'Release Change' is set on OMR.
We have a new requirement from business as described below:
For ex:
2 components (COMP1 & COMP2) are added to BOM through ECR1 effective from 01-AUG-2011 till Infinity
2 more components (COMP3 & COMP4) will be added to the same alternate through ECR2 effective from 01-SEP-2011 till Infinity.
ECR1 changes are made and OMR status set to 'Complete Changes' changes i.e. BOM status is 11 effective from 01AUG2011 till Infinity.
At this point of time, ECR2 is created. When changes are being made to the same BOM using ECR2, COMP1 & COMP2 (added through ECR1) appear in the BOM.
This is not desirable for the customer. They do not want to see COMP1 & COMP2 to appear when changes are being made to ECR2 as ECR1 is still not post approved. They expect COMP1 & COMP2 to appear in the BOM only when ECR1 is post approved.
How can we control effectivity of COMP1 & COMP2 such that, they become available in the system ONLY WHEN 'Release Change' is set on OMR?
Can 'Parameter Effectivity' be used in this scenario?
Thank you very much for your advice and guidance,
BK

Hi JH thanks for your quick reply,
Let me describe it more specific, I have two material FG and SFG. Material FG is maintained with valuation type so when we do goods receipt for SFG it's asked to input valuation type in batch field. In stock SFG material qty is separated for each valuation type like batch.
Now i want to maintain in BOM for FG, where component SFG has fix the valuation type / batch so that in production order we don't have to choose manually. Do you have any idea ?

Batch Number for Valuation Type in BOM item detail

Dear PP Expert.
Is it possible to maintain batch number for valuation type in BOM item detail ? My requirement is for example in bom item 10, component A is maintained with batch number for valuation type so that in production order batch number field automatically filled.
Fyi i have tried user exit : Enhancement for BOM item: PCSD0002. Here we can maintain valuation type for component in item detail in customer tab. But unfortunately valuation type here is not link with batch number for valuation type in Production order.

BOM business requirement for sales order and PGI

Hi Experts,
Current setting
The BOM structure is A = A1+A2
1) Material A created in MM master item category group = ERLA
2) Sub component material A1 and material A2, MM master item category group = NORM for both component.
3) Maintained in CS01 BOM header is A and items are A1 and A2.
4) Item category in IMG was created and assign item category also created.
    4.1) OR-ERLA-TAQ-TAE
new business requirement as listed below.
5) The material A is alway zero quantity on hand, no goods receipt required with no physical with such material or package at all. (it is dummy material number in SAP).
6) while SO created.
    6.1) Fro material A sales price captured at BOM header level only, NO QTY and COSTshow in the sales order.
     6.2) Material A1 and A2 are actual physical inventory item in the ware house.
     6.3) The sub component of material A1 and A2 is required to captured QTY and COST. NO SALES PRICES NEEDED.
CONCLUSION
HOW to setup/configure such a business scenario?
- Is it logic to configure as OR-ERLA-TAE-TAN that's what i think of?
My problem is how to make the material A is alway ZEROS stock on hand and allow in sales order creation with ZEROS order qty?
MATERIAL                                          QTY                             COST                                  SALES NET VALUE

As per your post,
- You are creating Main item which is a dummy material without any physical inventory maintained, but the pricing/billing should be done @ main item level.
- here you are not dispatching main item, but billing should be carried at this level. in such case, I suggest you to go with the new sch.line cat w/o maintaining any mov type to it. & use Zitem category for this main item in VOV7, mark "Order qtty=1" so that min order qtty for this main item should be 1, so that you can calculate price.
- You want to capture Cost of sub items , summation of sub items cost is total cost of main item & Profit will be calculated accordingly.
Sub items, sch.line category should have mov type, item cat should be not relevant for pricing & billing , but relevant for sch.lines. In Copy control from delivery - Billing @ item level, for the main item ,- item category, choose "Cumulate cost", so that cost of the sub items will be cumulated to main item.
eg:
MATERIAL QTY COST SALES NET VALUE
A 0 0 1,500.00
A1 1 100.00 0
A2 1 50.00 0
My problem is how to make the material A is alway ZEROS stock on hand and allow in sales order creation with ZEROS order qty?
To avoid this, mark order qtty=1, in item category for main item, but for the same item, sch.line category should not have mov type. so that there will nt be any PGI document. But PGI should be done for sub items to capture inventory & cost.
Test & revert, if any issues.

Gathering Technical and Business Requirements for SAP PI

I need to some documents and tools, or interview guide & questionnaire to gather the stakeholders' technical and business requirements for SAP PI

Thanks for the links,
I am quite new at SAP and currently trying to elaborate should i use SAP PI or not based on my project stakeholder's requirements.
And my biggest problem right now is how to capture technology and business requirements and match them with SAP PI
I plan to use this format while requirements gathering about integration platform:
1- Draft Requirements
Q- What is the names and status of sending and receiving application and how they will be used
2- Detailed Requirements
Q- Connectivity, Administrative and Business related questins
3- Administrative and project management information
Q- Which applications are involved, who is the original supplier? Who is technical contact at the supplier
4- Business requirements
Q- Questions about the information flow which will support some business processes
5- Connectivity to applications
Q- Questions about connectivity mechanism, file formats (flat file or XML or something else), data access methods and so on
What do you think about the general concept?

New security required for managing rejections in UAR?

I have been told by someone at SAP about several new authobjs required for SP06 UAR "reject" features.   Objects include:
   ManageRejectionsGenerateAction
   ViewManageRejectionReasons
   ManageRejectionsCancelGenerationAction
   ViewRejectUsers
   ViewManageRejections
   ViewReject
I'd like to find out more about these to determine if all these are needed by reviewers OR security administrators OR both.   Anyone know where these are documented?
TIA,
hb

Wild solution...
1) Create a New User ID, which will be used for Just resetting the password based on the security question. This ID will have a password which everybody will know.
This ID will have only few authorizations.
2) Create a Custom Program which will take the User ID and the Question. Also some way of storing the Answer in some table (encrypted).
Based on the ID, the question of the user will be displayed. Based on the Input by the user, the answer will be checked.
3) If the answer is correct, reset the password and send a mail to the user id of the user. (Solution for resetting the password needs some analysis) The custom table will store user id, question, answer and the email id to which the email has to be sent.
Reward Points if useful.

New vprs condition for posting COPA according to item category

Hi
My client has a requirement of posting in COPA according to item category, for example ,i have two items in the billing one is with normal item ctegory (TAN) and other is (TANN),They want the postings should be different for both the item categories in COPA so that they can show the free items VPRS cost should be booked in other expenses(TANN).
I tried by adding another condition type like ZPRS and made a routine but system is working in the order and at the time of billing system is not working
Provide the suitable solution
Regards

Hi!! Sriram Kiran,
I would rather suggest a different method.
Please make the following changes.
1) In the detail screen of your item category TANN, in the section of 'Business Data' for the field Pricing the value entered should be 'B'.
2) Next insert condition type R100 in your pricing procedure and insert the requirement for the condition type R100 as 55.
this way pricing is applied to the product with category TANN but is with 100% discount and the cost VPRS is transferred for COPA.
According to me no need to create a new condition type for cost of the free item.
Hope this helps.

PATHIK

Mass change of BOM item and BOM item catergory

Hello Everyone,
I have a need to complete a mass change of a BOM item with another, usually I use transaction CS20,this works o.k. but this time I'm also changing the material with a new item catergory, for example a stock item with a phantom item.
Does anyone have an idea how to complete this task.
Kind Regards
Frankie

Hello,
Thankyou very much for your reply.
I did try adding the new material using CS20 but all the BOM qty's are different and as you know you have to complete this field, so it would mean changing one at a time, I attacked this issue from a different angle and created an LSMW so I can Mass delete the parts but then use this program to change the BOM item to the new part.
Thanks again for your reply
Kind Regards

Variant Configuration - Manual changes to BOM Items

Hi All:
We are implementing Sales ORder (SET) process. Need to have the ability to change BOM Items.
According to SAP documentation referred in the link below, we have set the flag to allow the manual changes to BOM Items in the configuration profile. We have made sure that in the Material BOM configuration the fixed quantity flag is not set.
But it is not working. Not sure if we are missing some other settings.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/92/58bfb9417011d189ec0000e81ddfac/content.htm
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Raja

this would happen if you have edited the server.xml manually. if you do edit this file for valid reasons and want to keep the changes
please run
asadmin reconfig user admin password secret12 host host.domain.com port 4848 --keepmanualchanges=true server1
then deploy your applications, you should be ok

BOM Item Details fetching issue

Hello Friends,
Actually I am fetching BOM item details data, with the use of STAS & STPO tables but to my surprise I am not getting all counter values in STPO tables i.e. first I am passing BOM NO, Alternate & Item ID To STAS table to get counter details and then passing these counter values in STPO table to get item data like qty , variable size item data etc. But I am unable to find all counters which are available in STAS are present in STPO table e.g. in STAS table there are 113 counters but in case of STPO table only 37 counter values are found.
Kindly provide your valuable inputs for above mentioned issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Tejas

Hi Vivek,
Thanks for your reply.
Request if you can elaborate your answer.
Right now I am taking counter values from STAS and then passing them to STPO but many of counter values are not available even I checked deletion indicator it is not marked with X still those are not available in STPO.

Tejas

When I'm signing up for my ID number is it for a new business or for banking purposes

I'm in the process of signing up for a federal ID number and it is asking me if I am getting the number for "starting a new business" or "banking purposes". Since it's a requirement to sell an Ibook in itunes, which is it? Banking or starting a business?

The EIN? if so this is an Apple requirement for tax purposes. Seems to be a USA employer requirement.
On my form I declared as new business ....ebook publisher.
The Banking and Contracts section is for you to confirm your bank details...if/ when you sell items...Apple transfer your earnings less their commission, to your bank. The contracts are Apple requirements.
Its advisable to apply for EiN by telephone ..of you do the agents you will speak with are very helpful and will take you step by step through the forms. It takes about 10 -15 minutes. and they give you the number then and confirm i. writing.
Apple have other banking requirements for UK, Canada and Australia.
