Non stock material info record

Hi SAPERS,
Please let me know the difference between the stock material and non stock material info records, Is there any difference in creation of both records.
Thanks in Advance,
D Prasad

Hi,
When the IDoc for purchasing info records of a stock material is posted, if the purchasing info record for the material and the appropriate supplier does not already exist in the receiver system, the number of the purchasing info record is copied from the central system. Otherwise, the existing purchasing info record is updated.
· For purchasing info records for non-stock materials, the purchasing info record number is always copied from the central system. If a purchasing info record with the same number already exists, the system checks whether it has the same supplier and material group as the info record from the central system.

Difference between stock and non stock material

what is the difference between stock and non stock material. example of stock and non stock material?

Hello,
Stock Material
Material that is constantly kept in stock .A stock material has a material master record and is managed on a value basis in a material stock account.
Ex: Raw Material.
Non-stock Material
Material that is not held in stock because it is consumed immediately.
Ex: Office Stationary.
You need to create purchase order and accounting document for payment but the stock balance is always zero as it is issued out immediately to the various department.

check the tick box in vov8 "read info record",and when you create sales order(va01),dont enter the material number enter the "customer material number" and see whether you are getting the material number.
and also go to (va02) and check whether you are getting the CMIR details.

Material Description in SO from Customer-Material Info Record

Hi,
Currently whenever user is entering the customer material number in SO item, system is bringing the SAP internal material corresponding to that. But the material description is coming from the material master only.
I want the material description in the SO item to be populated from Customer-Material Info Record whenever user entered the Customer material number.
Any possibilities for the same by standard configuration without going for any enhancements.
Thanks in advance,
Mallik

Hello
Go to T code VD52 choose that customer and material combination and click on to its details blue lens on application tool bar
In the screen which is coming ,enter your description in the CUSTOMER DESCRIPTION tab the second one and save
Now create a sales order and see
Your requirement will be fulfilled
If a material is pen description is ball pen in material master and for customer A you have defined it as Pen 1 and description as Super ball pen in VD51
Now in sales order the description will appear as Super ball pen
Hope you have checked the field info record in VOV8
I have tried this tested this and getting it

PP-MM-FI integration for Non-Stock material consumption

The client is expecting a simple solution for a Std SAP process which is LIKE subcontracting....but actually not.
The requirement is to set up a process of external operations using a NonStock (NLAG) material ( which will have no physical stock updation when GR is done). This material is a part of BOM with item category N. The material will have S price control. ( Must from business requirements). PR gets created from process order --> converted to PO --> then 101 and simultaneous automatic consumption gets debited to order. (with a price = PO price). PO has a account assignment F and item category blank Standard).
Question - This behaviour is not desired. The "Std cost" should be used in posting a consumption posting..& the rest ( PO price less Std price) should be shown as purchase price variance in a different acount. How to customise this break up ? Is there way in MM pricing conditions or something else ?.
Pl note that there is no stock entry...only consumption will be debited with GR offset at PO price. Also at invoice verification, the price if different should be posted to price difference account ( which is not assigned to process order...it is directly going to COPA).
Might be a very simple SAP solutions / answers from MM /PP......so that we avoid the ABAP development for reposting..
Could somebody help pls ?
Regards
Ram

Hi,
Since Material is Non-Stock Material so it is must to maintain the Account Assignment Category in PR or PO for this Material. And once you maintain the Account Assignment Category in PO and do GR w.r.t. this PO then it will not consider the Material Master Price (Standard Price) since there is not any Stock Account Entry during GR, it will hit the Expense Account. And Price Difference Account will get debited only if Stock Account will come in picture.
So following Accounting Entry will get generated;
During GR (MIGO);
Expense Account - Dr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr
During LIV (MIRO);
Vendor Account - Cr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Dr

Unit Cost of non stock material - Hubwoo Catalogue

Hi Team,
There is one requirement to transfer the the cost of matrial from SAP PM to ArcFM. Here the materials are assigned to the operations in the PM order. Here we want to transfer the service cost and material cost of the particular operation to the ArcFM ( ie an external design tool) to estmate the total cost involved for the particular operation.
Here the unit cost of the stock material can be get from the material master. But for nonstock material, a hubwoo catalogue is maitained. How do we get the unit cost for the this material?
There is an interfece we have to develop to transfer the service cost and material cost from the SAP to ArcFM. Hence we have to get the unit cost of the non stock material here.
Thanks in advance.

Shyjith

Hi,
Yes, you are right but in material master price is not updating, many times I have been assigned the same material as a non stock and at every time I have maintained the planned price on order level but it is still maintained as "0" value in material master,
what is the standard process?
what settings need to be made to get automatically planned price or last purchased price for a non stock material?

Automatic PR to PO conversion for non stock material

Hi,
Can Automatic PR to PO conversion be done for non stock material (with account assignment category and no material master).
We are presently doing only for stock material with transaction ME59N.
Thanks and Regards,
Pratap

Some of the pre-requisites for automatic generation of PO from PR are
1. The system selects only those requisitions for automatic PO generation for which the indicator Automatic purchase order has been set for both the material and the vendor.
2. It can only generate purchase orders from requisitions to which a unique source of supply has already been assigned.
So material master is mandatory if you want to create PO automatically from PR and you need to activate this option both at vendor and material master.

Outbound delivery without reference and customer-material info record

We use outbound deliveries without reference (L0). Several customers want their own material number printed on the delivery notes.
So we considered using customer material info records. Unfortunately, the customer material number is not copied from the customer material info record into the outbound delivery position.
Do any customizing settings exist that we might have overlooked? Or is this behavior a "feature"? Any hint would be highly appreciated.
Best regards,
Gerald

Hi Gerald,
have you ever figured a solution for this issue?
I'm now facing the same issue and could need some support. I found some documentation for the USEREXIT_CUST_MATERIAL_READ, but I don't know whether that could be used as a solution.
Please let me know or if anybody else knows something, please feel free to chip in your knowledge!
Thx & regards,
Bobby

Purchase of non stock material

Hello MM experts,
We use the non stock material type for material we purchase on cost centers. Those materials do not have any price in the master data because they are generic. For example, we have one material code for office furnitures.
Now we want to use the RFQ functionnality after a PR is created but we can't link the RFQ price wihout updating PIR.
For example, i have to PR with different RFQ price
                 material nb      description               long text    qty                      RFQ                price
PR 1        123456            office furniture           chair         1                           11                  50
PR 2        123456            office furniture           desk         1                           12                  100
Is it possible to link a RFQ to a PR without maitaining a PIR?
Is it the right way to purchase generic materials?
Thanks a lot

I didn't know that to link a RFQ to a PR and a PO, you have to select the RFQ in tcode me21n.
You can create a PR with reference to RFQ or create a RFQ with reference to PR. Usually it's PR - RFQ - PO. If you create a RFQ and maintain the quotation through ME47. Now if you create a PO with reference to RFQ, system will automatically pick the price to PO even without inforecord. you enter the RFQ number in ME21N item overview tab. or with the help of document overview.
Do you know why when a RFQ is pending for a PR, the PR is still available for PO conversion in me21n ?
RFQ - PR - PO is not a regular process either it's not a invalid process. Usually it's PR( this is where the demand created) and the PR is converted into PO if we know the vendor already and if we dont know the vendor we create RFQ. RFQ is just aid to get the quotation and I dont see logic to restrict the creation of PO. Only restriction you can make is.. restrict PO without reference to PR or RFQ through OMET

Suggestion required for STOCKE MATERIAL to non stock material in the PO

Hi all
by mistake system clears account assignment for non stock material due to some user exit.
1. PO line item 01 - mm 100011 -stock material - plant 1000
2 . PO line item 02 - mm 100011 -non-stock material -plant 1100 - it has account assignment - in the request - by mistake this account assignment got cleared while creatring Purchase order
now i have realised this issue while doing good receipt.
now second line item 02 - mm 100011 - needs to be correct to receive goods . what action item needs be taken so that i can pay the invoice.
can i make in the line item 02 - Account assig category K and enter GL account AND cost center. - to correct the issue.
i have corrected this issue for future in the user exit.so not clear account assignment.
Muthu

Both the cases you need to pay invoice.Only the difference is first line item the material qty goes into stock.Second line item is not stock item as you are assigning account assignment.
To correct the issue for second line item you can change it to account assignment item if system allowed.Why I am saying you mentioned user exit influencing the PO to change the line item.
So first check user criteria what are the controlling perameters to save the PO.It seems your user exit checking line items if first line item stock item then it is changing all th line items as stock item.Take ABAP person help what are the user exits exist in PO

Using a Non-valuated, non-stock material in an STO

Created a planning material with UNBW material type in ECC 6 to use to help manage shipping capacity at the mill. Added to a sales order and it decremented the plan as expected.
Half of the mill's deliveries are STO's so now trying to get this to work on an STO.
Does anybody have advice on how to get a non-valuated, non-stock material (ideally, a planning material, but we could work around this) that we don't plan to deliver, to work on an STO?

Thx for replying. I need the material to be accepted by the STO but also to work with planning so it decrements a planned shipping capacity for the mill. So I am trying to figure out how to get it on the STO and be differentiated from other, normal materials that have $ value, inventory, and account assignment, This material will only have a planned quantity that can be decremented by demand coming from either sales orders or STO's.
