New Plant creation - Urgent

Hi all,
I have created a new plant 5500 and did all required changes in SPRO. I have created a sample material and tested mm configurations by creating its PR. while saving the PR, system throws an error that
"Account assignment mandatory for material VS_TEST_1 (enter acc. ***. cat.)". when i enter any thing in account assignment, this error resolves and system asks me a gl account.
we have also other plants in the system and no other material for other plants asks for account assignment category. What configurations should I do so that system does not ask for any account assignment??
Please respond.
Regards,
AI

Hi,
use t.Code: OMS2 and select ur mat. type and click quantity /value updating TAB, system will take to new screen and now for your new plant select check box of quantity & value updating and save.
Now try creating PR.

Error in new plant creation

Hi,
I have created one new plant by copying a standard plant. I copied this plant by coping all the tables from standard plant only. While creating PR for that new plant I am getting the following error u201C Valuation Area not definedu201D. Here the valuation area is maintained at plant level only. If I check in Account determination(Table T001k) the valuation area for that new plant not updated.
If I check plant tables getting error " Error in foreign key dependencies.
How to solve this issue? If any one face this kind of issue please let me know.

Hi,
Please check at spro log- mm valuation, wheather the plant is defined as valuation area or the company code.
if not please aagain copy the tables to the plant by copying function and check.

New Lot Creation - Urgent

Hi all,
I have an issue to discuss. I have some stock that has not been entered into the system and that stock is free of cost. I want a quality inspection for this stock. How can i do a quality inspection of this stock without raising a PO??
I know we can enter the stock in quality inspection in the system using movement type 563 in MB1B. But how a lot can be created for this stock in qa32 so that quality inspection and finance check can be done?
Please respond.
Regards,
AI

Hi Al,
One option is to create a free of charge PO and refering to this PO you can receive the goods in transaction MIGO. You can set the QI stock type wether in your PO or in MIGO.
I'm not sure you can receive goods via transaction MB1B...(maybe MB1C but FOC PO is better I think)

Abap dev for new plant

Dear all,
We acquired new plant, and we are inegrating that new plant which is not in sap, into our sap system.
and lots of customizations have to be done.
I understand that on the mm front new plants creation, assignments to cocode, BA etc happen.
I am quite sure about abap front.
What developemnts would be needed on abap front:
like extension of all teh materials to the new plant. I think this can be handled through LSMW.
what else abap developments do i expect.

This will depend on, when and where the data related with plant is required.
As per my understanding the ABAP development which summarize the data at plant level will be impacted.
In case , you have hardcoded values on the basis of plant , then you have to consider the new plant also.
Get all the Z reports related with plant information and check. Its will be easy if you view the modification log and naming convertion.Hope it help you.

Creation of a new plant

Hi Gurus,
While creating a new plant in real time, is advisable to copy a standard plant or define a new plant ? Please give reasons.
When a plant is copied what are the various parameters that are copied to the target plant ?
Thanks & regards,
Surender

Surender,
SAP recommends creation of plant by copying. Generally when a new plant is created it should be copied from any of the existing plant which functions similar to the new plant.
The reason for this is when creating we may miss to update all the required configuration and all the configuration tables with links would not get updated. This also reduces time of setting plant as you need to just change/add configuration where ever required in the new plant.
But if you are a fresher trying to test in your test system... create it in create method so that you will understand in the hardway as what all needs to be configured, it will be a good learning which you will not forget. Please dont try this when you are working with a client system as this make give you lot of trouble and need lot time to resolve issues.

Creation of new plant and the impact of business

Hi to all
i am creating a new plant, and would like to know the impact of the plant, what are the changes to be made in the customization, i want to know what are the chages required, and let me know after unit testing and integration testing what activity to be performed, as i am at go live stage and in the production client how to extended the master data, what is data migration how it can be done,
thanking you

Hi there,
As an SD consultant, these are the things you need to take care.
Assign the plant to the company code in OX18.
You need to assign the new plant to the sales org / distribution channel in OVX6.
Then assign the shipping point to plant in OVXC. If WH is active for your plant, then assign warehouse WH to plant & storage location in LE assignment.
Reg the master data, you need to assign the material master to the new plant. Also maintain the MRP profiles, plant specific data in the MM01.
Maintain the shipping point determination in OVL2 & storage loc determination in OVL3 (OVL3 if required)
Check with MM, PP & FI if they need to maintain any plant specific configs. There are some configs from their end for sure. For eg for production orders, purchase orders, movement types etc.
Reg the testing, you need to ensure that plant gets proposed automatically when a new sales order is created. Also maintain the relevent plant specific condition records.
Similarly when PGI is done, it should update the transfer postings in MM & FI w.r.t plant.
Even tough your project is in final stages, you have to do a regrious testing when a new plant is created. Testing cannot be compromised for time lines. It will lead to serious production issues if tsting is not properly done.

Creation of new Plant in productive system

Dear All,
I have to create 3 new plants. the system is already productive from the last one year.
can anybody guide what will be the effects if i create new plants and send the transport to the production system.
what need to be looked for side effects if any?
pl give your valuable suggestions.
Thanks and regards
Ajay

If you create new plants - there is no adverse effect but you have to make sure that the plant you create is copying by the existing.
other things if you have any custom reports based on the plant then the new plant should be included, authorization needs to be consider if any basd on the plant,
etc

Creation a new plant by copying

Dear all,
I working in a project where we need to merge on plant to a new company code.
I believe that can be solve with Tcode EC02, which actually will copy all characteristics from that plant to the new one under a different company code, won't it?
This basically means that also all the information related to procedures (like release procedure), Output types for inventory management, etc, etc will be copied, meaning that we wont have to do any new development?
I assume we will still need to do some customizing like MRP Controllers and so on, or this transaction will also copy all tables?
Thanks a lot in advance for your confirmation,
Mario

Hi Suraj,
That basically means that unless we decide to create any new development/customizing everything will be exactly copy as from the original settings, am I correct?
My question comes due to the project where I'm working now. Customer basically wants to close one company code and take everything to another Company Code, therefore we will need to replicate everything as it is now (Plants, SLocations, Controlling Areas, Sales Orgs, etc).
My assumption is that when we create new plants with reference from the old one, also all values under tables will be copied, so we won't have to spend time in customizing, and we will be able to focus on other activities that may require customizing or more work.
Could you please advice me on that point?
Thanks a lot for yor time!

chakri

Hi Chakri,
In this situation we look for below areas in MM
1) Closing stocks.
2) Open PO's
3) Pending Payments to vendors
4) Sub-Contracting status.
close all po's at cutoff date & take the closing stock of materials with value & note the g/l account value these should tally in new plant.
for po's pending for delivery close it or cancel it.
Material master / vendor master etc . . . master data's is adviseable to extended using LSMW or BDC.
Hope this will help u.
Regards
Rang
