Non Stock Item in Component MO to plan costs

Dear all,
Currently we have a problem regarding the display of plan costs in Maintenance Orders (MO).
We will be using the non stock item in the component part of the MO.
These non stock items will be maintained with standard setting.
The problem is that these non stock items costs are not shown in the display of costs in MO.
We have checked the plan costing variant for the MO, and nothing seems to be wrong.
One thing to note though, the actual costs when the PO is GR-ed are shown in the correct value category.
Please kindly suggest me on where to check on this matter.
Thank you very much in advance
Best Regards,

Delivery date for Non stock items

Hi,
While creating Maintenance order for Non stock items in component screen planned delivery time fld comes. Here
I put 10 days. But system creates PR with delivery date as today's date ie order creation date.
Actually delivery date should be 20.09.2009.
Waiting for your valuable inputs.
Thanks
Prasad

Hi,
The requisition delivery date is dependent on the operation start date. System does not consider the planned delivery time when calculating this delivery date.
The delivery date is based on the following calculations:
- The start date of the operation
- Minus Goods receipt processing time of the component
- Plus or Minus Lead time offset for the component in the order
The above values can be adjusted to manipulate delivery date.
As mentioned, It is also possible to influence this date by implementing exit COZF0002.

How to convert PRs for non-stock items through ME57

Any idea how a PR for a non-stock item (just text) charged to a cost center can be converted into a PO through ME57?

Hi Jürgen,
Its requiring an information record when I enter a fixed vendor. Problem is I cannot create an info record because it is a text item (no material number necessary).
Cheers.

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

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

What is use of Item Category N(non-stock item) in BOM creation

Dear Experts,
What is use of Item Category N(non-stock item) in BOM creation ?
regards
rajakarthik

Hi,
This item category is used for components which are not kept in stock if they are used in a bill of material (BOM). Non-stock items can be entered in the BOM with or without a master record. To enter a non-stock item without a master record, you must simply enter a descriptive text.
When you use this item category, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition for these components,
Special functions
The following functions are supported for non-stock items
You maintain purchasing data for non-stock items in the bill of material.
In the planning run, the system generates purchase requisitions
instead of dependent requirements for components that are procured directly. When you configure your R/3 System for MRP, you can define whether direct procurement is triggered by the planning run or by production order management.
Product costing processes take valuation data from the BOM item.
The system determines the release strategy on the basis of the price data you enter. The material group is required to produce a purchase requisition.

Non stock item requisition from the order

Dear all,
Material is not available in stores,i have enter the item category as N in the maintenance order ,system created the Purchase requisition & reservation of same material which will be further converted to Purchase order.
When material goods inward from the store that material automatically issued against that reservation,
is it standerd process of SAP?
And now when i am checking in IW13, against same reservation system shows 'no material withdrawn'
And in the order withdrawn quantity & final issue tick mark is activated.
what may the problem?

Dear Shahanawaz,
When you assign the item category "N" to component in component tab view, Normally PR is generated & When you assign the item category "L" to component in component tab view, Normally Reservation is genereted.
Against reservation we directly issue the material as it is already available in Store. But for Non stock items we need to convert PR to PO. After receipt of the material & Making GR that material directly issued to order & not going to Store. This is standard process. Also you can view Material availability status indicator as the process progress as PR to PO conversion & As the GR is made.

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 .

Tools & spares need to change as non stock items..

Dear All,
My client wants to make spares and tools as non stock items..previously they were stock items and they are around 2000
materials so instead of creating new materials with new material type i have decided to change material types of existing materials using MMAM..
Please tell me is this a right process to do?what will be the effect of this?
What is a correct procedure for this?
Thanks,
Naren

Hi,
You check for the prerequisites
Prerequisites
1 .If you use the material ledger, the material must be settled in it.
2. If the old material type did not require you to specify a price control (for example, standard price or moving average price) for the material, the new material type must not be configured such that it allows only standard price as the price control.
3. If the material has been maintained from the Production Resources/Tools view, this view must also be allowed for the new material type.
4. .If the material is not a configurable material, the new material type must not be allowed only for configurable materials.
5. In Customizing for the Material Master (in Define Attributes of Material Types), the following indicators must have the same setting for the old material type and for the new material type:
Material for process indicator
Manufacturer part indicator
6. If inspection plans are required for quality management inspection of the material, they must be allowed for the new material type.
7. The Material type ID indicator (presently used only in Retail) must be the same for the old material type and for the new material type.
If the material is already in stock, or if reservations or purchasing documents exist for it, the following conditions must also be met:
1. . The stock values of the material of the new material type must be updated in the same G/L account as the stock values of the material of the old material type.
2. Quantities and values of the material of the new material type must be updated in exactly the same way in all plants as quantities and values of the material of the old material type.
3. If there is a transfer requirement for the material and if quants of the material exist, the new material type must also allow the material data to be maintained from the Warehouse Management view.
If the material, whose material type you want to change, was handled in batches and if, due to the maintenance statuses of the new material type, the material can no longer be handled in batches, although batches still exist, you cannot change the material type.

Costing of a non-stocked item in a BOM

Hi Guru's
We are on ECC 5.0. I am having issues when costing assemblies that consume materials created with Item category 'N - Non-stocked items' in BOM.
As an example, Material A is an assembly that consumes a raw material B that is purchased from a vendor. I don't stock raw material B but as and when required to make material A, I will purchase it from the vendor. So I created the BOM for material A with material B in it as a item category 'N'. I am costing material A and it does not pull all the cost components (i.e raw material costs on material B, freight charge from purchasing material B). All it does is shows up a value with out cost component splits.
But on the flip side, if I create the BOM for material A with material B as a stocked item (Item category L), costing of material A is showing all cost components perfectly.
Is there any configuration that I need to do to retrieve cost components when costing assemblies that contain non-stocked items.
Any input is really helpful.
Thanks,
MG

I think this will be a clear example:
Material B - Purchased and non stocked. Has a PIR and a vendor. Material cost is $10 and Freight is $1 - Total cost is $11.
Material A (ZSFG) - Consumes Material B. Material B setup as item category N in BOM for material A.
Costing of material A - costs with a price of $11. This $11 is shown in cost component for semifinished which it should not. Instead, it should split $11 to cost components Raw material - $10 and Freight - $1.

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

Returning non stock items from a return sales order

Hello Everyone:
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.
Reward points if useful

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.
Regards.

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 ?
