What is a non material item?

Well im trying to explode a BOM in the Sales Order and one of the items is defined as a T- text item in the BOM.

  • MR11- for non material item

    I just try to do for one PO with all non material item and
    I can't do MR11 for non material item..

    Hello,
    a non material item can be a text item but it can be also a service item.
    This depends from your customizing. Which item type is relevant for your non material item.
    In the item type you can maintain if an item is relvant for pricing or not.
    Please have a look in transaction VOV7. Here you can set the flag 'Pricing'.
    This flag can have the following specification:
          Blank  No pricing
    X     Pricing standard
    A     Pricing for empties
    B     Pricing for free goods (100% discount)  
    I hope that the information are helpful.

  • Pricing for non-material quotation item

    hi, All
    If I create new quatation with non-material item, can I set pricing for this item?
    I have tried that system always takes that non-material item as text item so that there is pricing for it.
    Thanks in advance

  • Procurement of non stock items without using material master?

    Hi Experts
    My company follows third party scenerio with non stock items . The procurement process starts from creating a PR thru network by entering a material master and other purchasing information in component overview. I have come to know from some sources that in case of non stock items we may process the same  by not using the material master and just entering a material description and other purchase related information. So, my questions is:
    Is it possible to follow the procurement process for non stock items without using material master? And if it is Yes, then how will i maintain the tax coditions which i generally do for material and vendor combinations.
    Thanks

    Hi Chandra,
    It is mostly used in projects where you are directly procuring materials for projects and no need to track the inventory.
    But i think it is better to create to material Master and use that Material with item cat L so that at any point of time we can track inventory .

  • Sales order line for Non Stock items progressed to Closed status, need to be Cancelled.

    Hi,
    First time posting to this community, I hope someone can help.
    Currently we have a setup where non stock items are being added to sales order lines (charges, etc.).
    These lines are being progressed through to Closed status automatically.
    Users are reporting that they have entered the line in error and would like to change the status of the line to Cancelled.
    We are unable to return the material (RMA) as it is non stockable/transactable etc.
    Current workaround is to adjust the stock and make finance aware so that the line does not get invoiced.
    However, the system still shows that the line is closed (i.e. provided to customer) which is not correct.
    Is there any way of getting the line to a status of cancelled?
    Your help is very much appreciated.
    Regards
    Tim

    Hi Arif,
    Many thanks for the warm welcome.
    I'm thinking the only course of action I have for future, is to make the items stockable/transactable/returnable such that an RMA can be performed if added in error.
    We can put a large qty into stock at zero value.
    Thanks for your help in any case.

  • Unit of measure for Stock and Non-stock Item in CJ20N

    When I attach Material to an activity (item Category N   Non-stock item) in Project Builder (CJ20N), It is peaking its Base unit of Measure as unit. Now when I try to change it, it is showing an error
    Item category N: Only base unit of measure M allowed
    Message no. CO344
    But for the same material if I change the item Category to L   Stock item, then it allows me to change the unit.
    Please guide me regarding this Behavior. Is there any customization, by doing which it will allow me do the same for Non-stock Item or It is not Possible.

    firstly I am assuming that the activity is internal processing type - doesn't matter really
    now to attach a material select actvity and from the template area click and drag material which will open the material detail screen in the work area
    because it is a non stock item I am assuming text description - in the requirements qty you enter the qty and next to it the units - changeable
    if you choose a material number maintained as material master then obviously the unit will be from the material master.
    If you are using an externally processing activity then in config check OPUU for the network type and see if order unit has been populated - that might be the problem

  • Cost of goods sold (cogs) for non-shippable items (intangible items)

    Hi Experts,
    Can anyone please help me on this issue for shippable item we can check in material transactions--distributions for cogs account and cost of an item. But how can we check the cost and account for non-shippable items (intangible items) with out using the items and item cost form.
    Thanks in advance,
    Christ.

    Hi,
    You need to replace the join MSI.SALES_ACCOUNT(+) = GCC.CODE_COMBINATION_ID with msi.cost_of_sales_account(+) = GCC.CODE_COMBINATION_ID to get the COGS account. Currently you are getting sales account not COGS.
    Thanks

    I have a return sales order that I am receivi9ng an error meesage on for only two of the line items...
    The Error Message is "update Control of movement type is incorrect (entry 651 X__L)...the other items on the sales order that are being returned are not having this issue only these two non stock items.
    i looked in OMJJ and see my movement type  and everything....I am making the assumption that this is due to the material type being non stock...they do not have a MRP view either....the VOV5 also shows the item category for the non stock item with DN...what am I missing...please help...thanks in advancve...

    Thanks for you replies...However I would not want a stock transport order receipt for this which is what the "X" would be...this is a customer return from a sales order...again this works for stock material that is being returned by the customer...it is not working for a non stock material only.  That is my issue..it is only erroring out on the non stock item category only....I am MM and have stepped into a position that was previiously handled by another...I have not ran into this error before so help would be appreciated.....Thanks in advance...

  • Is it possible to add value item and non stock item in one billing?

    Is it possible to add value item and non stock item in one billing?

    Hi,
    Yes,it is possible .Take example of service scenario,where material used in servicing and service charges(labour) can be billed in single invoice.
    Billing document type,Customer and other header data should be same.

  • Item Category N (non-stock item) in BOM creation - Preq Generation

    Hi All
    I have a material component that is planned in APO and not in ECC6. We would like to keep the one BOM for the finished good. Problem is that when we perform the backflush in ECC6, the system wants to backflush the material and causes errors due to missing stock.
    So I assigned the material as a non stock item in the BOM but the system will auto generate  a purchase requisitions for Non stock bom components (item category N) when the process order is created. It is possible to turn off the auto creation of the purchase req for non stock bom components? 
    I have tried the following:
    - Explosion type in item data, created new key with 'Switch off planning' indicator set in system configuration
    - created new 'Z' item category with inventory management de-selected
    Both approaches causes system error: Puchase data of material in not maintained
    I also tried leaving as a stock item with the bulk material indicator selected in the item data. This does not work as the cif will then exclude the component when data is transferred to APO
    Funny enough, the system does not generate a purchase req for non stock bom items when using Repetitive Manufacturing. Any help will be greatly appreciated
    kind regards
    Grant brockelbank

    Hello Vivek
    Thank you for your response
    The item is a non stock item. I do not want this item to be backflushed at all. This can be achieved using the 'N' non stock item category but the problem is that the system will attempt to generate a purchase requisition when the process order is created.
    I do not want the system to generate a purchase req in ECC6 as this item is a planning material that is planned in APO (used for medium to long term planning in a simulation version). We are hoping to use the one Bom for ECC6 and APO planning. The generation of the purchase reqs is a bit of a waste as we will never convert them and there is potential to cause issues for purchasing.
    Any other thoughts?
    Thanks again for your help
    kind regards

  • Problem in  BOM or component allocation for the Non- codified Item in a PO.

    Hi All,
    Please advise how to explode a BOM or Assign component in a Purchase order with Item category (L) for a Operation oriented material for which no material code is created from a production order .
    Actually in my scenario, no raw material component will send to the Sub -Contract Vendor. Only Assembled operation material lets say operation 20 from a routing ( which is not having material code ) from an In - house production from a shopfloor has to be sent to the vendor to create a operation 30 material , which is also not having a material code." How to explode a BOM or component allocation for the Non- codified Item in a PO".
    Kindly give me the IMG settings for the above scenario.
    regards,
    YK

    Hi Prasobh,
    Tnx for your suggestion. But, the client external processing routing is not constant activity . Based on the Operation bottlenecks client is sending the operation as external Processing. For Eg., If on first order operation 20 be external , Then in second order operation 20 need not be external. operation 30 may go out for external processing. Client does not want a material code for each operation.
    Give your valuable suggestion.
    regards,

  • MIGO Print label WEE1 for non stock items from GR for PO

    Hi,
    I added logic to print new label into printing program MZ07DETI which is printing labels for stock items. My label is for non stock items. The problem is that for non stock items printing process is not triggered. I created PO with Account Assign. Category F, P or K no material number and no storage location. For this type of PO no print possible during GR posting. Is any set up available in IMG to make it work. I appreciate any response.

    Hi,
    Please check up if there is any default value at the plant level;in case of such default,the system will post to the GL Account defaulted,not with standing the "standard item category".Better checkup if any cost center /order has been assigned.
    The GL item is defaulted thro'the item category.If both the goods and services have been defaulted to the same GL  Account,then not with standing the type [ie] whether goods or services,the system will post tot he same GL Acct.
    Hope this helps.

  • Goods Issue Documentation for Text (Non-stock) Items

    Hi all,
    I have a business requirement to provide some form of shipping documentation for text (non-stock) items.
    The business do not want to create material masters (NLAGs) for these items as they are different/one off purchases.
    The purchase the goods and receipt with account assignment to a cost center or internal order, then sit on the inventory and send it out to customers along with real stock items.
    Any ideas on how I can provide some kind of supporting documentation, whether that is a delivery note, or just a simple GI Slip?
    Thanks,
    Mark.

    So they want to purchase items that they don't create materials for/don't get stocked yet want to include those items that don't really 'exist' in SAP on some for of documentation.
    If these items go with real Deliveries then why not add them as text items to the Delivery ?

  • Procurement of more quantity than required in case of non stock items

    Dear Experts,
    Requirement is given below.
    I have one maintenance order with non stock item category N for quantity 5 pieces which is actual need.But user wants to procure 50 pieces against order and consume 5 pieces and rest will keep as stock.
    But in case of procurement against non stock item the moment we received the Goods (GR), all procurement quantity  will goes to consumption account and postings will happen accordingly.Correct me if i am wrong.
    Now my requirement is to keep the remaining stock 45 pieces (5 pieces consumed against actual need) as stock and to be consumed whenever there is a need.Can it possible to keep as stock in storage location which was procured against order as non stock item.
    How can i resolve this issue.
    Please somebody can help me.<<Text removed>>
    Thanks in advance.

    For the orders which you consumed, do the reversal of that material document. Also create one GR for the qty which has been returned to vendor & keeping the stock to storage location.
    In future, define those as stock items, so that this work around won't be required.

  • Import multiple info records for 1 material item in repository

    Hi Guys,
    I have got sort of a puzzle I can not solve at the moment, maybe some one can help me to solve it. The situation in our system landscape is as follows:
    Systems:
    SRM 5.0 (Classic implementation scenario)
    ECC 6.0
    SRM-MDM 2.0
    PI 2005
    Material master is maintained in R/3 and the materials are replicated to SRM. From SRM we replicate all materials to the catalog repository in SRM-MDM.
    As the material master in R/3 is vendor independent, the materials replicated to SRM also have no vendor attached. For the first initial material replication from SRM to the catalog SRM-MDM this also means that the products in the main table of the repository, u2018catalog positionsu2019, will not have a vendor or vendor number attached (i.e. no reference to a source of supply).
    To assign a source of supply in the repository to a product (record) we will use info records which are replicated from R/3 to SRM-MDM. The mapping for this in the Import Manager can only be based on the product number. As this is the only unique value available which can map a info record to a already existing (but vendor less) ptoduct item in the catalog.
    As long as every item in the repository has only one unique info record, meaning one source of supply with a specific price, there is no issue in the above scenario. Based on the product-id, the info record data will be matched with the material item in the catalog.
    The issue for me arises when multiple info records exists for the same material. The info records can heave different vendors and different prices. All possible vendors should be available in the catalog for the same material (at least this is the requirement ).
    At this point the product-id will no longer be an unique value. Importing the info records will cause problems, as only one material record is available in the repository for the specific product-id (remember that when doing a initial replication of the material master to the catalog, no vendor data is replicated).
    Does anyone had this issue before, and knows a solution? Is it for example possible during the import of the info records in the Import manager, to duplicate material records in the destination data, based on the number of info records available in the source data for the same product-id. Or is there an other solution that I am missing?
    Your help would be appreciated!
    Regards,
    Skander

    Hi Shai & Ravi,
    Thanks for your answers. The MDM version which we are using is 5.5 - currently on SP6
    @ Shai: you are right; the standard SRM-MDM 2.0 catalog repository has a qualified lookup table u2018priceu2019, in which itu2019s possible to store the info record data. The standard fields in this sub-table are: Purchase Org, Amount, Currency Lower B, PIR-ID, price based quantity and Price based quantity UoM.
    I added some extra fields (non qualified), to accompany the remaining info record data (product no. u2013 vendor id  u2013 product category)  which is exported/imported, via the standard extraction program in R/3: Tcode MECCM
    I tried the solution Ravi proposed. This scenario works fine when, for example you want to maintain multiple info records for one specific material record in the main table (all info records related to the same source of supply, i.e. vendor). But as I described, the info records we import for one product can have different vendors. 
    The source of supply (vendor) in the shopping cart of SRM is determined via the u2018supplieru2019 field in the main repository table (which is in itself a flat lookup table ). What happens now is that all related info records are added to the u2018price informationu2019 field of the specific product record in the main table. Thus info records which have different suppliers are attached to a record in the main table which will have one specific supplier in the u2018supplieru2019 field. So from my point of view this will not work.
    I am still stuck with the situation that the material master import will only import one record for every distinct product, which can have multiple info records. The info records can/will have different vendors. As the supplier field in the main table determines the source of supply in the shopping cartu2026. Iu2019am seeking for a solution which will duplicate the material records in the main table, based on the amount of imported info records for that specific material record, that have distinct vendors.
    Shai, if you have some useful info on how you accomplished this requirement on a previous version of SRM-MDM, it would be greatly appreciated if you can share it..
    Thx.
