OPM for Food Industry

Hi,
We are looking to implement manufacturing for our dough making facility of a retail restaurant chain.
I would like to know
1.Which solution suits the best for us Oracle Process manufacturing or Discrete manufacturing???
2.How OPM ties to Purchasing, Order Management , Financials and cost Management??
3.Can we capture Labor in OPM??
4.How is Subinventory related to OPM Warehouse??
I really appreciate any response....
Thanks

1. The following modules of OPM are manadatory even for a very simple production process:
a) OPM Inventory
b) OPM Product Development
c) OPM Process Execution
d) OPM System Administration
In addition to that if you want to do costing you can install OPM Cost Management. If you want to do quality you can go for OPM Quality. For production planning you may decide to take OPM Process Planning or the more advanced ASCP. The list is endless. But the four modules mentioned above you have to install to run production.
2. If you buy OPM now, it will be 11.5.10. That integrates with Oracle Financials 11i. Integration with 11.0.3 Financials will not be possible. So the only option is to migrate your Finacials modules to 11i first. Then go for OPM 11i implementation. You may also do both the activities simultanesouly.

SAP implementation in food industry

Hi all
Does anybody has implementaion experience in food industry..
specially wafers industry.....
Coz i wud like to know more abt excise..here for purchasing excise duty has to be paid to vendor ,and this excise duty is loaded on basic price during MIRO
Where as they dont avail the credit
Can anybody share their different experience in food industry .....
This can be helpful for others also those who are implementing SAP in food industry

Hi,
This type of functinality can be Map through using Inventorised excise duty.
In this tax procedure is if TAXINN.
then you have to make tax code using FTXP.
In which you will maintain Condition records for those condition types which are of inventory type rather than set off.
Like for BED - JMIP.
ECS-JEIP
and then two other conditions JMX2 and JEP2.
hope this is clear if any doubt please ask.

What is the Best practice for ceramic industry?

Dear All;
i would like to ask two questions:
1- which manufacturing category (process or discrete) fit ceramic industry?
2- what is the Best practice for ceramic industry?
please note from the below link
[https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=011000358700000409682008E ]
i recognized that ceramic industry is under category called building material which in turn under mill product and mining
but there is no best practices for building material or even mill product and only fabricated meta and mining best practices is available.
thanks in advance

Hi,
I understand that you refer to production of ceramic tiles. The solution for PP was process, with these setps: raw materials preparation (glazes and frits), dry pressing (I don't know extrusion process), glazing, firing (single fire), sorting and packing. In Spain, usually are All-in-one solutions (R/3 o ECC solutions). Perhaps the production of decors have fast firing and additional processes.
In my opinion, the curiosity is in batch determination in SD, that you must determine in sales order because builders want that the order will be homogeneus in tone and caliber, and he/she can split the order in diferents deliveries. You must think that batch is tone (diferents colours in firing and so on) and in caliber.
I hope this helps you

Eduardo

In need of retouching tutorials for food...

Not sure if I'm posting in the right area so apologies in advance if I'm not.
I'm after some very specific photoshop retouching tutorials and wonder if any are available online. The internet is inundated with tutorials of beauty and glamour but I can't find any for food. I work as a retail packaging artworker and would like to enhance my portfolio with some retouching examples. So can anyone point me in the direction of some FOOD retouching tutorials?

I've done quite a lot of this sort of retouching - and if I have a general comment it would be that most food packaging images are deliberately over-retouched. Brown biscuits will end up bright orange by the time they hit the shelves. And won't look out of place.
The print is often built from custom colours, so its probably worth brushing up on your spot colour work too.
No tutorial links though - not sexy enough for the internet clearly.

Need BOM related solution for Textile Industry (Weaving proces)

HIi,
Made to Order Strategy:
Every times customer sends the specification of product. Specification format as given below:
Ex. 80x100/154x80*3-118u201D 4/1 Twill
Details of specifications:
     80: Count of EPI (Ends Per Inch)
     100: Count of PPI (Picks Per Inch)
     154: EPI
     80: PPI
     3: Insertation
     118u201D u2013 Width in Inch
     4/1 Twill : Design of Fabric
Operations Details:
1 Warping
2. Sizing
3. Weaving
4. Quality Inspection
5. Packing
As Is Business Process:
There are mainly four production lines viz. Warping, Sizing, Weaving and Quality Inspection. For all the production lines the individual machine work centers will be as listed below with brief description:
1.     Sectional Warping:
A kind of Warping specially used to prepare fabrics for shirting. In sectional warping dyed yarns are used to prepare warping beam. The end constraint of sectional warping is 720 ends at a time. The actual capacity of Sectional warping is 800 MTR/min. This activity is job work for DEESAN group.
2.     Direct warping:
Direct warping process is used to prepare warping beam. The end constraint of warping is 1088 ends per beam. Machine width of the beam in 2200 mm, speed of warping varying from 300 MTR to 1200 MTR per minute depending upon the construction required. It has backup procedure for next round. Uploading speed   for single yarn is 8 yarn / min / person.
3.      Sizing:
Sizing process is used to prepare specific number of EPI/ beam as per the requirement of construction. A calculated no of warp beam used to prepare a single sizing beam. Speed of sizing 45 to 55 MTR / minute depending on the requirement of fabric.
4.     Preparation of Drawing:
This process is used to preparation of new drawing for the loom machine. Drawing includes frame & reed. It will take 12 hr for 2 persons to prepare a single drawing i.e. 8000 ends per shift. This activity given as job work to some group of people.
5.     Weaving:
Two types of weaving machines used are CAM and DOBBY. Fabric to fabric PPI is varying, the capacity of loom machine depends upon the PPI so the capacity of loom machines varying with the type of fabric. CAM is used specially for plain fabrics.
6.     Quality Inspection:
The beams of fabrics coming from looming machine are inspected on Inspection machine. 100% fabrics are inspected on QA machine for further grading, which is then bifurcated in Export, Local and chindi type.
7.     Rolling:
Rolling machine is used for rolling of inspected fabric on card board rolls according to the quality of fabric. A roll contain of maximum 350 MTR of fabric. Which are then packed with LDPE followed by HDPE with appropriate coding on rolls.
Material Requirement:
For ex. 80x100/154x90*3-118u201D 4/1 Twill
Order Qty.: 20000 M
Currently they are using single level BOM.
Formulas for calculate raw material requirements as given below:
Warp wt / mtr = (EPIWidthCrimp) /(1693*Count of EPI)
          = (154 * 118 * 1.025)/(1693 * 80)
          = 0.137524
          = 0.138 Kg/Mtr
Weft wt / mtr = (PPIInsertationWidth * Crimp) /(1693*Count of PPI)
          = (9031181.025)/(1693100)
          = 0.192891
          = 0.193 Kg/Mtr
Total Qty req:
Warp = 0.138 * 20000 + add 5% loss
     = 2898 KG
Weft = 0.193 * 20000 + add 4% loss
     = 4014 KG
Packaging material requirement :
1. Paper tube = Total order qty / approximately for 300 m 1 paper tube required + 5% loss
          = 20000 / 300 *1.05
          = 70
2. HDPE sheet = No. of paper tube * 0.4 KG
      = 70 * 0.4
     = 28 KG
3. LDPE sheet = No. of paper tubes * 0.15 KG
          = 70 * 0.15
          = 10.5 KG
Chemical consumption in terms of yarn on KG basis. Its combination of 4-6 chemicals depends on construction to construction also material availability.
Note: We will consume chemicals against cost center.
Production planning at execution time:
Sizing and warping calculation:
1.     Sizing :
EPI per inch = 154
On loom will be = 154 * 1.025
           = 157.85
Total no of ends for 118u201D width = 157.85 * 118
                    = 18626
Add one more ends per 1000 ends = 18626 / 1000
                    = 19 ends
Total no of ends = 18626 + 19
          = 18645 for sizing
Warping :
Warping m/c capacity of output is 1088 Ends per set/beam.
Speed of machine 300-1200 MPM.
So for sizing we need 18645 ends. Now we want to calculate no warp set required for sizing & no. of ends per warp set.
Ends required per set = 18645 / 18 = 1036
     i.e. 18 * 1036 = 1 Sizing set
We need total yarn on KG basis
Issue related to BOM:
1.     How We can feet below 2 issues in BOM
a.     we want to calculate RM(Yarn) material requirement in Unit of u201CENDu201D
NOTE: Procurement of Raw material Unit- KG as well as it depends no. of ends required for warp set / beam. i.e. its multiple of yarn cone required for 1 warp set.
As per Bom of Raw Martial Unit- Ends (EA)
b.     Also we want to calculate no of warp set required for sizing and no of ends required for warping process.

Best Practices for Chemical Industry

I am searching for documentation for Best Practices Package for Chemical Industry
e.g. file SMB18_XK15_O002_Q36_01.TXT but could not find it on SAP Marketplace.
Can someone hint me where i can get those files.

Yogesh,
I suspect that the exact file you are looking for was part of an earlier release.
Why not just download the latest version?

3PLS Scenario for Service Industry

Hi All,
How do we map SAP B1 Solutions for service Industry.
Scenario 1.
My client gives warehouses on rent to their customers to store their Inventory. My client provides the Labour required for that particular warehouse and transportation if required.
Scenario 2. (3PLS) (Third Party Logistics Services)
My client takes warehouses, Labour and Transportation on rent from Vendor and gives to customer on Rent. Their customer stores their inventory in that warehouse.
My doubt is that can we maintain customers inventory at out client place. if yes, How to map the scenario.
Regards
Shashi
Edited by: shashi mantripragada on Jun 29, 2009 12:24 PM

Hi,
We can have work solution for this service process mapping.
Any work around solution in B1 there has to be financial implication on that. So we have to be very careful on defining GL Account Determination and its financial implication.
And that will be accounted in our books of accounts.
Here we will receive only charges out of from the services, what we have to given the service to them, for this we will do service invoice (AR Service Invoice) to account those charges.
For Inventory Tracking what we need to do is to pass the goods receipt or goods issue document with out the item cost. Here we have to assign inventory account and inventory off set account and we need define an item for to maintain a stock and also the warehouse and Item Group which we are going to maintain a stock. All are the document involves financial implication.
Charges should be accounted through service invoices and inventory tracking should go through goods issue and goods receipt document (Inventory Transaction in Inventory Module) .
Please consult a Finance person before going to do that these configurations. But it is possible in B1.
Thanks and Regards,
Senthil Maruthappan.

ECC 6.0 upgrade to Best practise for chemical industry implementation

Dear All.,
Please tell me what all the EHP3 must be updated in the SAP erp ecc 6.0. I have already updated
SAP_APPL 60304.
Tell me what is the next Ehp3 required before i start best practise in saint.
Thanks & Regards,
Manju

Dear sir.,
I have installed SAP ECC 6.0 for a chemical industry, now am planning to implement Best practise to reduce implementation time.
1) As per the SAP Quick quide i have downloaded best practise for chemical industry(IS) and implemented through SAINT, and the prerequisites were maintained as per the SAP notes 774615,1301301,1064635,
2)The above mentioned notes explains minimum stack11 and sapka=18,sapkb=18,sapbw=20,PI_Basis-2005_1_700=20 and sap_ap=15 to update Ehp3 for SAP_APPL603.
3) After updating all the above mentioned patch level i implemented the Best practise in saint and that was successful.
But still the problem persist in activation of BP by tcode /n/smb/bbi only 70% has been completed and activation stoped with *ABAP program error ASSIGNSUBSTRING_NOT_ALLOWED and relevent note is 1295083*_
Please any one tell me, is that required to update all the EHP3 components since i have maintained only SAP_APPL60304.
What all Ehp3 components should be updated to get a smooth activation og BP for chemical industry.

Hi!
In order to deliver SEM solutions to our top Managment directors, we need to define their strategic KPIs (key performance indicators).
I'm looking for samples of KPIs suitable for Telecomunications industry, particularly interested in Investment Management KPIs (better if related to Telcos), that contribute to build manager cockpits.
So, it would be helpful if you have any of the following topics:
1) KPIs for Telcos; or
2) KPIs for Investment Proyects
Thanks in advance.
Leticia (Argentina)

Leticia Can you elaborate little bit more on this...may be i can be of any help because you want to set KPI not just for Telcos..but specifically for your organization..so if you can explain further on your scenario..then it will be much easier for me to give appropriate answer.
