OPM and Discrete Inv. - Inventory Transactions

Hi,
Implementation: OPM, OraFin, and some CRM (11i.7) modules for a beverage company.
Where can we find a document or white paper to explain which inventory module (OPM / Discrete) is used for which item type (production-formula, non-production-formula, stores, non-production non-formula, etc.).
regards
pieter

Pieter,
I have been implementing Financials, OPM / Order Managment and some CRM for a Snackfoods company.
I don't know of any documents that describe what you require but I can describe Inventory in OPM/Discrete as follows:
As I am not sure of you experience with OPM and Discrete Inventory I will explain a few points (all relevant to 11.5.7 OPM Famliy Pack H)
Inventory Orgs in Discrete are equivalent to Warehouses in OPM. If an item needs to be received into the same inventory Org and that Org is process enabled the item must be defined in OPM. All items defined in OPM are Syncronised to Discrete Process enabled inventory org as long as they are select in the Organisations screen.
Formula's = OPM Items
Production = OPM Items
Quality = OPM Items
Purchasing / Receiving = Discrete Items
Order Management = Discrete Items
Manufacturing Accounting Controller = OPM Items
Move Orders = OPM Items
In direct answer to you question
Production-formula = OPM Items
Non-production-formula = OPM Items
Stores = Discrete Item (Initially created in OPM)
Non-production non-formula = Discrete Item (Initially created in OPM. Possibly set to Non Inventory).
All these answers assume that these items will need to reside in the same warehouse (Inventory Org). If items reside in a separate warehouse and none of the transaction listed with OPM against them are required these items could be placed in a Discrete Inventory Org that is not process enabled.
Hope this is of assistance.

�Could someone help me in this issue? I look at metalink but no information is provided about Item synchronization
Thanks is advance

INV와 WIP TRANSACTION에 대한 COST MANAGER의 ERROR발생시 처리방법

INV와 WIP TRANSACTION에 대한 COST MANAGER의 ERROR발생시 처리방법
====================================================
PURPOSE
Inventory와 WIP Transaction에 대해 Inventory Cost manager가
정상적으로 작동하지 않고 Error가 발생한 경우, Data Fix방법에
대해 기술하고자 한다.
Explanation
Cost Manager는 다음의 Transaction들에 대해 처리한다.
1. Material transactions
2. WIP Resource transactions
Cost Manager가 수행 시 정상적으로 처리하지 못한 경우,
다음과 같이 Error처리를 한다.
(1) mtl_material_transactions의 costed_flag = 'E'
(2) wip_cost_txn_interface에 data가 존재한다.
:정상적으로 수행한 경우, Interface table에서 Record가 삭제된다.
1. To resolve the Material transactions:
Select request_id, costed_flag, transaction_group_id
from mtl_material_transactions
where costed_flag is not null;
(If this picks up any records - uncosted transactions exist).
update mtl_material_transactions
set request_id = null,
costed_flag = 'N',
transaction_group_id = null
where costed_flag is not null;
2. To resolve any WIP transactions:
Select request_id, group_id, process_status
from wip_cost_txn_interface;
(ie. only uncosted transactions exist in this table)
Update wip_cost_txn_interface
set request_id = null,
group_id = null,
process_status = 1;
The next Cost manager run should pick up the transactions and
reprocess them

Inventory Transaction to Projects

Hi,
I am working on DEMO Instance (12.0.4).
- Created a User Transaction Type with Project enabled
- Created an Expenditure Type with Exp. Category as "Inventory Transfers"
- Did the Misc. Receipt (Which I have created in step 1) with Required Project Information.
- Ran the "Cost Manager" and the transaction Costed successfully (Material Transaction -> Reason, Reference Column -> Costed 'YES')
- Ran the "Cost Collection Manager" and found from the Table (PA_TRANSACTION_INTERFACE_ALL) that No Transaction happen. (From Application I found that, Inv ->Material Transaction -> Transferred to Projects 'NOT APPLICABLE' ).
Why Transferred To Projects is "NOT APPLICABLE". Did I miss any step.
Regards,
Khan.

Hi
There could be several reasons:
The item cost may be zero - will not transfer
You may be acting with an expense type item - will not transfer.
The subinventory you are taking the item from may be an expense subinventory - will not transfer.
If you are working in a PJM organization, when the MISC Issue is taking item from locator of project A task B, and issuing it to the same project and task, the system will not transfer the transaction to Projects.

Mass inventory transactions of over 50,000 quantity

Hi All,
We have a requirement to do a mass bin move from one location to other. We are expecting a move 50,000 quantities at a time. We have 50 inventory transactions worker scheduled as of now. Is there any way we can fast up this move? We did a move of 30,000 and it took almost 4 hours.
Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
Krish..

1) Increase workers
2) Stop other people from submitting concurrent programs
3) If you use vitualization, then try to temporarily increase the box hardware (for the concurrent tier)
4) Make sure you don't run much else on the d/b.
5) Run stats on the inv schema after loading the interface table.
Besides, that you don't have much choice.

Should the Goods Receipt Inventory Transaction include Item Cost selection?

When processing a Goods Receipt inventory transaction, the Price List pull down does not display "Item Cost" as a selection.
The user can make the Unit Price field visible and active, compare the cost displayed from the Price List selected to the current Item cost and update if different. This forces the user to be very cost cognizant as none of the price lists available are guaranteed to be equal to the current item cost.
Update of the record can cause a cost revaluation in moving average or a cost varinance account adjustment in a standard cost system.
The companies I have talked to would prefer to select Item Cost in the price list field as they can do in the Stock Posting.
I am looking for further input on this.
Thanks,
Jim

hi,
Physical inventory number
Specify a number or name under which several inventory documents can be grouped together for improved processing
Reference Number for Physical Inventory
Specify the number of a document outside the system that relates to an inventory transaction.
means if you are using MI01 then you have to maintain the data in mi04 . but you are using mi09 no need to maintain the datad directly you are go through with mi07 for posting the differences.
thanking you.

Price List on internal inventory transactions

SAP 8.8
On Sales docs and Purchase docs the price list to use comes from the BP card's price list.
On internal inventory transactions, Good Receipt and Goods Issue, my docs default to Last Purchase Price. I want them to default to a different price list. (Employees are creating these docs and forgetting to change the price list.)
Where can I set the default price list for these transactions?

Hi,
This default is not user selectable. System can only use item cost for those transactions.
Thanks,
Gordon

Hi All,
We have just upgraded to R12.0.6 and we are facing performance issues with the Cost Manager ..it is costing the Inventory/Material transactions very very slowly..about 1-2 Inventory transactions are getting costed within a minute.
The Actual Cost workers are taking a lot of time to process the transactions as well..
Could someone please suggest or help us troubleshoot this issue , as this very critical as we are facing this performance issue in 12.0.6 production enviornment.
Thanks
Sachin

Can you find any errors in the CM/DB log files? Do you run Gather Schema Statistics and Purge Concurrent Manager/Programs on regular basis?
Please see if these documents help.
Note: 387669.1 - Cost Manager Performance Issues
