Hi Mahesh,

Non Stock Item- G/L accounts

Hi ,
Can anyone tell me how do the consumable items/non stockable items pick or are assigned the G/L accnts.??
Thanks and Regards.
Deepika

Hi,
For non-stock or consumables, PO provides the G/L account details via Account Assignment tab details when appropriate account assignment category is selected for the line item in the PO.
From table T156X (example, GR with ref to PO for consumables)
MvT Value updating Quantity updating S Mvt Cns VStr Cn AM Chk
101 B V WE06 1 X
So, system uses the G/L passed from the PO.
If its a case of Service PO, because you can skip assignment of accounts in the PO using Unknown account assignment category, it uses the G/Ls that you assign in the service entry sheet.
Hope, it helps!

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...

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
Grant

Need to create stock item reservation with account assignment

Hi Gurus,
we are working on EBP 4.0 , extended classic scenario . We have a scenario where we want to create a shopping cart for stock item reservation with account assignment as work order.
but when we try to do it , we are getting following error message
"Unable to create stock reservation for this account assignment."
Any ideas how this can be resolved?
Regards,
Mangesh

Hi Mangesh,
In reference to the info. you have provided, the issue seems to be with the account assignment category than anything else.What do you mean by Account assignment as work order? Need some clarity in this statement, to help you in this regard.
You can create a cost center (account assignment) P.O and can mention the storage location. The stock will be updated in the storage location where as the FI document will be posted against the cost center.

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 ?

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.
Reddiy.A.V

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.

Non Stock Items not posting in AP Goods Receipt

Cr Allocation Account                  xxx
Then when the AP Invoice is raised

Have you created any PO / PR in system?
If not, then:
For stock items:
Keep one dummy vendor (as Petty cash vendors can't be created in system), create PO for that vendor, then GR. Then do GI for the order.
For Non stock items:
Create PO for the same dummy vendor with reference to order (Account assignment is F), do the GR for the order directly.
If GR has been done already, GR to stock or GR for order? Based on the accounting document, manual postings to be done to the order, I guess. Check with FICOCpeople.

Stock and NON-Stock Items procurement

Hi,
Please let me know why classic scenario cannot be used fpor Stock items and Extended classic can be used for both stock and non-stock items.
What is the exact difference.
Regards,
Manu

Hi Sanjeev,
Thanks for the reply.
But if PR is transferred to SRM from MM and classic scenario is used and the resultant PO is created in MM then will transfer the PR with/without account assignment.
Pls let me know.
Thanks,
Manu

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.
