Non configurable Assembly and Configurable Assembly

Hi
Can somebody correct my understanding of these two concepts.
Non Configurable Assembly: The header material will have child components but it is not activated for configuration.
Configurable Assembly: The header material will have child components and over above these the header item is also elgible to be configurable.
Kind Regards
Chakradhar

In the standard R/3 System, the following item category groups determine which item categories are assigned to configurable materials in the sales order:
· Item category group 0002
Pricing and transfer of requirements for header material
· Item category group 0004
Pricing and transfer of requirements for components
The BOM of the configurable material may contain configurable assemblies, which are copied to the sales order as subordinate items. The item category group of the materials and the item category of the superior material determine the item category of these subordinate items.

  • Implementing Variant configuration with Non-configurable assembly

    Hi Gurus!
    I have a scenario but don't know how to implement it.
    My header material is configurable and has 3 semi-finished components under it. One of the semi-finished component contains a BOM with 2 raw materials, but this component is not configurable. I mean my model has a multi-level BOM but single a single level configuration. I want to implement an assemble-to-order manufacturing process for the header material. The component with 2 BOM items is manufactured in-house and the other semi-finished components are procured externally.
    What kind of planning strategy should I use at the header level and should I maintain any special planning strategy for the non-configurable assembly?
    I am new to SAP and also to variant configuration. So please give detailed explanation.
    I have read the Planning strategies in the link SAP Library - Demand Management (PP-MP-DEM) but it is too confusing to me.
    Best Regards,

    Hi Caetano Almeida
    Thank you for the links. I got a few more questions after reading that.
    1. In order type settlement profile which order should I check? I am creating a sales order (OR) for a configurable material in MTO strategy 25. In that case should I check "SD1    Sales Order MTO Production"? If so, am I looking at the right screen (refer screenshot below) and  are the settings correct in my system?
    2. As you have mentioned in the other links. Is it fine to make changes in material valuation in OMS2? Have you come across any situation in which this change has led to other inconsistencies?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Thileepan

  • Configuring ALEAUD message between Non - SAP sytem and SAP sytem through XI

    Hi
    We have Scenario like an IDoc would be send to SAP through XI system by a non - sap system and expects the Status of the sent IDoc from SAP system in an Async communication by using ALEAUD message type.
    Non SAP <==> XI <==> SAP
    We have tried and ending up an error at SAP while the ALEAUD is being sent back.
    "No Service for the system <SID> and <Client number> in the Integration Directory"
    We are able to successfully send MATMAS IDoc to SAP throgh XI by non - sap system(File Server) but while sending Acknowledgement(ALEAUD)IDoc, it is failing at trfc queue(Status 03). RFC destination and Port and Partner Profile all Ok.
    When we configure the same between two R/3 systems as XI between is working fine for the same Scenario but for Non - SAP system to SAP ,it is giving problem.
    As we know "ALE audit is only possible for IDocs of type logical system (LS)."
    Can't we treat XI system as logical system insted of actual sending system and configure ALEAUD??? We are ending up with the same error above.
    Appreciate if anybody throw light???
    Thanks in Advance.
    Kind Regs
    Ramesh

    Hi Ramesh,
    In your Integration Directory, in the Sender Business System --> Adapter Specific Identifiers, you have to give the logical name for the business System pointing to the R/3 system.  Just try this.
    Also take a look at this blog:-
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/29/xi-error--unable-to-convert-the-sender-service-to-an-ale-logical-system
    I hope this helps.

  • Difference between configurable and non configurable finished goods master

    Hi
    Pl explain the difference between configurable and non configurable finished goods master data.
    Thanks
    kamala

    Hi,
    Configurable material are used when you have a large number of combination of parts that go into a product. It means different combinations of the parts for same material. If you maintain a unique material code for each combination , you require a large number of material numbers. KMAT is used in such a case where you maintain just one generic product code. You assign class to this material having all variant characteristics.
    A super BOM is maintained for such a material consisting of all possible alternatives. A super routing is also maintained consisting of all possible operations that could be used.
    Typically configurable material is used in Made To Order (MTO) environment. However frequently ordered configurations may be planned with a material variant which needs to have a material master record. Thus Material variants may have stock and value. Depending upon characteristic values chosen at sales order entry Sales Order BOM is created. Routing operations are also chosen depending upon which BOM components are assigned to them.
    Non configurable materials are like finish, semi finish materials having fixed BOM.  A separate/single BOM exits for every finish material.
    Revert back for more info.
    thanks and regards,

  • Non-configurable materials with EK02 costing

    Hi all,
    We have a range of non configurable manufactured materials which, when used in standard sales orders, generate a production order and BOM. Presently the cost is automatically generated from the material master and is populated as a VPRS cost.
    As these materials have a BOM we want the cost to pick up from the BOM instead, ie as an EK02 cost. If we enter such a material and do a manual recost the EK02 populates in the sales order item conditions but we cannot get it to populate automatically as it does with configurable materials with BOMs.
    In the define item categories section in SPRO we have removed the determine cost tick. This has the desired effect of removing the VPRS cost but the EK02 cost still doesn't pull through. In the Bill of Material / Configuration section of the item category we tried setting the structure scope to A (Explode single-level bill of material) and B (Explode multi-level bill of material) but this didn't work. If we set it to D (Configuration, poss. with BOM explosion), then we get the "item can be configured but there is no configuration" error when used in a sales order which is expected as these products have no configuration.
    We also tried deleting the standard cost held in the material master to see if, as that value was now blank, it would pick up the EK02 instead but, alas, this also ddn't work.
    Any help / suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Kind regards, Rob

    HI,
    We are maintaining the Service masters for the services we render, there is no valuation of Inventory as only service is being rendered.
    But we have maintained BOM and Routings for the services we render.
    Even there is no valuation class in the serivice masters as this is non valuated.
    Can you guide me more on this pls.
    Thanks,
    Ravi

  • Non Domain Servers and Workstations

    Hi,
    we are trying to deploy SCCM 2012 clients to non domain servers, and we are also in the process of trying to find out what the best way we can clean up machines from sccm that have not logged in 90days or more.
    From my understanding if I turn on only discover machines that have logged on to the domain in a given period of time than that means if a server has not logged in will not be discovered which can be an issue when patching, and also what do I need to do
    with the non domain servers with sccm client installed on the servers.
    can you please help me with this that would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks Tom

  • Prevent Hourly Employees from Ordering Non-stocked Materials and Creating Purchase Reqs in Work Order

    Our SAP plant maintenance system is configured to create a purchase req when a non-stocked material is ordered. We would like to prevent hourly employees from creating a purchase req or ordering non-stocked materials. Only supervisors should be able to order non-stocked materials and create a purchase req. Is there a way to do this via config or system enhancement?

    Hello Rick,
    Clearly there will be 2 ways if not more. One is the Authorization object route and another is Enhancement route. I'm not going to touch the former one. So let's expect answers from other members for that. For the later one, we need to know the answer for the question below:
    'Can we distinguish the hourly employees from regular employees by the user-Id or some other means? If yes, how ?'
    Once we know this, we need to use some user-exit or enhancement spot of the program SAPLCOIH to capture the event of 'N' in the ItemCategory field of Components tab by such UserIds and trigger an error message.  (Suitable user-exit is not striking my mind, so this might go the implicit enhancement way of Order program SAPLCOIH ).

  • Non-stock material and service material

    What is
    1) The difference between non-stock material and service material? and
    2) The difference between text material and service material?
    Give the example and how to configure it into sap.

    hi
    1) The difference between non-stock material and service material?
    1.A.  non stoc material goes with NLAG Eg: Office supplies such as stationary & service materials goes with DIEN material type
    2) The difference between text material and service material?
    2.A. there is no any text material as a seperate master data in MMR &  DIEN (services).
    please chec the sap liabrary in it SAP has explained it very well.

    I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems!  I am paying monthly for this service and it is constantly failing in some way!  So far in three months I have had to uninstall and re-install Photoshop THREE times because it stopped working properly and Illustrator I have had to do that same to TWICE!  That isn't including the other apps that have had issues!  I don't have the time to constantly be un-installing and re-installing all or some of the Creative Cloud because your developers are not making a product that works consistently for the money you are charging!  It is costing me more than just this monthly fee!  And I am even less impressed with the fact that I cannot email someone for assistance in resolving these issues.  Really Adobe?

  • What is RID in non clustered index and its use

    Hi All,
    I need help regarding following articles on sql server
    1) what is RID in non clustered index and its use.
    2) What is Physical and virtual address space. Difference in 32 bit vs 64 bit Virtual address space
    Regards
    Rahul

    Next time Please ask single question in a thread you will get better response.
    1. RID is location of heap. When you create Non clustered index on heap and
    lookup happens to get extra records RID is used to locate the records. RID is basically Row ID. This is basic definition for you. Please read
    this Thread for more details
    2. I have not heard of Physical address space. I Know Virtual address space( VAS)
    VAS is simple terms is amount of memory( virtual )  'visible' to a process, a process can be SQL Server process or windows process. It theoretically depends on architecture of Operating System. 32 bit OS will have maximum range of 4 G VAS, it's calculated
    like a process ruining on 32 bit system can address max up to 2^32 locations ( which is equivalent to 4 G). Similarly for 64 bit max VAS will be 2^64 which is theoretically infinite. To make things feasible maximum VAS for 64 bit system is kept to 8 TB. Now
    VAS acts as layer of abstraction an intermediate .Instead of all request directly mapping to physical memory it first maps to VAS and then mapped to physical memory so that it can manage request for memory in more coordinated fashion than allowing process
    to do it ,if not it will  soon cause memory crunch.Any process when created on windows will see virtual memory according to its VAS limit.

    how do i delete icloud account on my ipad when my apple ID is non active email and i don't know the password and can't reset password without active email

    If the iCloud account you are trying to delete is old ID that was later updated to change it to your current ID, you can go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now, if desired, you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.7 NON Confirmed dimensions and facts

    Hi All,
    In OBIEE 10g if we had non-conformed dimensions we used to work with by defining logical level of the conformed dimensions to grand total and confirmed dimensions to detail in the LTS of the fact table
    and also set metrics to grand total level.
    But in OBIEE 11g doing same is throwing error
    [nQSError: 14025] No fact table exists at the requested level of detail
    How do we achieve this?
    Regards,
    deep

    You need to create a complex join with non conformed dimension and the fact with 1=1 and set the logical level of the measure to total for a non conformed dimension.
