Hi Vijay,
Standard Org Structure for IM starts with Plants and ends with Storage Locations. You can create required no of storage locations under your plants, where plants are assigned to company codes. Its always better to copy from master plant 1000/0001 while creating the plants where you can make changes during creation where required (factory calendar etc).
All the material movements within the plant happen between storage locations, material-material, special stocks-unrestricted stocks with no accounting effect.
Movements between the plants can be planned wrt your needs such as STO with no financial postings unless you have plant wise PCA
You can follow the standard avaiable structure for your IM org structure.
Regards
Shiva

  • How to modify organizational structure for workflow?

    Hi,
    What is the best practice for modifying the organizational structure for workflow? I know I can do all the changes in development and move it to production via transport system but is that always required.
    It seems tedious to transport the org plan from dev to prod every time there is a position change etc.
    And it does not allow you to change it in production since the client is locked.
    I don't even have all the users I have in production in my dev box so I can't assign the correct ones to positions. Would it mean I have to have the users in the dev box mirror the ones in production?
    Thank you,
    Sergiy

    This answer depends on the HR managment that you have there, if the HR area is a good coordinated area the best answer is to configure the system for automatic transports and pass the HR structures in this way, you can lock some dangerous infotypes in the T77TR tables and be sure that you will not have any trouble with that data. the best thing using this option is to have a specific DEV client to transport the HR structures.
    If you will not have any control between the Dev Environment changes and some people will modify in Prod and other people will make transports in a Dev environment, the best option is to open the client and modify the Org structures every time you need it.
    Refers to the SAP Press book Practical Workflow, section 5.4.2.

  • Missing content for inventory management (cube 0IC_C03)

    Hi everybody,
    I installed the following BI content for inventory management: Cube 0IC_C03, InfoSource 2LIS_03_BX and transfer rules from data source 2LIS_03_BX to info source 2LIS_03_BX. However, I'm not able to the update rule from info source 2LIS_03_BX to info cube 0IC_C03. I can only find the old update rule 0IC_C032LIS_40_S278 -> 0IC_C03.
    I also couldn't find the update rule for material movements from 2LIS_03_BF to infocube 0IC_C03.
    How can I find this missing content. We are using BI Content Release 704 Level 1.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Oscar,
    unfortunately, I was not able to find a transformation for the datasource migrated to 7.0.
    Btw, how do I determine to which version data sources are replicated. I have an underlying ECC6.0 system. When I replicate all data sources for that source system, datasources automatically show up as 7.0. I'm missing the pop-up question whether or not I want to replicate as 3.5 or 7.0.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Unserialized for inventory management?

    Hi,
    why unserialized update for inventory management, why not direct update and delta queue.
    regards
    anitha.

    Hi Anitha,
    SAP Inventory Management system allows you to manage stocks on a quantity and value basis in order to plan, enter, check goods movements and carry out physical inventories.  
    Enables users to manage all the items purchased, manufactured, sold, or kept in stock. Services can also be defined as items, although they are relevant only for sales.
    For each item, users enter the data relevant for a particular area in the system. This data is used automatically by the system for purchasing, sales, production, inventory management, and accounting.
    Provides optimum support for business processes. Helps create orders, delivery notes, and outgoing invoices, automatically calculating prices, sales units, and gross profit. Enables complete control over stock quantities at all times and lets users analyze the financial aspects of stockholding at the same time. Allows users to control production on the basis of the items that are used for production and on the basis of the finished product and any by-products created.

  • Why do we use Unserialized V3 update for Inventory Management?

    Hello Experts,
    I have question on LO Cockpit extractor.
    Why do we use Unserialized V3 update for Inventory Management (2LIS_03_BF) ?
    Are there any reasons behind?
    thanks a lot
    Padma

    Hi,
    V3 gives you good performance and you use it when the order of data is not important they way it was posted in OLTP, this method is used.

  • Localization for Inventory Manager 4.0

    Hi guys,
    Do you have any documentation which explain how to configure the localization on Inventory Manager 4.0? or something similar. I need to configure Spanish as an alternative language for the mobile app, but I don't know what is the procedure to configure the spanish language for inventory manager? I guess I must copy the ini files from language packs... and put these files on the same location where the other files exist... but after that I don't know what else I should do...

    ok Mark Pe & Stephen Streeter , I see it now... thank you !!! ... I have done what Bill Froelich commented on Localization in Syclo Agentry for Spanish and German ...
    and when I saw the startup log it shows:
    16:24:00 09/08/2014: Event: 20, 153, Finished loading Production application definitions for default localization
    16:24:00 09/08/2014: Event: 20, 152, Loading Production application definitions for 'en' localization
    16:24:03 09/08/2014: Event: 20, 153, Finished loading Production application definitions for 'en' localization
    16:24:03 09/08/2014: Event: 20, 152, Loading Production application definitions for 'es' localization
    16:24:07 09/08/2014: Event: 20, 153, Finished loading Production application definitions for 'es' localization
    16:24:07 09/08/2014: Event: 20, 151, Finished loading Production application definitions using file "SAPIM-v1-0-0-app"
    That seems to be fine... now it loads the localization (english and spanish as suggested on the other post), but when I enter to the device (physical device), the client still shows the labels in english.... The regional settings on the devices says Spanish (Venezuela).. Is this configuration on regional setting has something to do with the fact the labels still are shown in english??... the language is always like this: Spanish (Argentina), Spanish (Chile), Spanish (Venezuela)... It does not have only spanish...

  • Organization Structure for multiple countries

    Hi,
    We are setting up GLOBAL support organization. Our support organization includes following countries:
    1. China
    2. Japan
    3. Korea
    I am reading the SAP blog from forum. It says that,
    "Enter the necessary data in the address tab (City and Country). In the Function Tab, Select Service and Service Organization. In the Attributes Tabs, check for the attribute maintenance Scenario: Service that you have a value in the attribute Country. Be aware that the basic organizational determination process is based on the Country value. This means that all of your business partners should have the same value in this attribute. If you have more than one country then you should create several organizations".
    My query is:
    In my organization structure, it involves three countries (China, Japan & Korea). I have included all the three countries in a single organization structure. But as per the above statement, should i need to create three organization structure for three countries?
    Regards
    Kumar

    Hi Kumar,
    Sorry for late response: but the answer is no, only one structure for each country.

  • Organization structure for Case study .... need yr advice

    Hi …I am in process of preparing an org structure for one of the company.
    The company operations is like ….
    The company has four factories in different locations and have 3 Regional distribution centers (RDC) across india. Each distribution center has 5 branches (Sales Offices), in this way they 15 Sales offices across India.
    Most of the materials are procured by factories independently while some materials are centrally procured. Factories produce Finish goods and they are either sale to customer directly ( big regular customers) , or transferred to RDC to cater the requirements of other MID size customers and the other possibility to transfer it to Branches for Retail customers. RDCs also transfer FG to Branches.
    All factories , RDC and branches have warehouse facility , however branches have limited warehouse facility as the customers supported by them are very few and generally deliveries are made directly from RDC / Factory.
    They also have one R&D department in another location to develop new products and material is generally transferred from factories to R&D department.They also have one project division at the same (R&D) location which handles commissioning of new plants and procurement of capital goods.
    Raw Material , Semi finish and FG are transferred between factories and FG material is also transferred between RDCs.
    The group also has another Company which produces another line of products. RDCs and Branches of first company also work for second company (which means same RDC can store FG produced by both companies) and also Branches can also have FG material of both companies. Second company doesn’t have any specific R&D or capital division and R&D and capital of first company also work for second company.
    Inter company transfer between both companies is a regular practice.
    > Proposed Org structure
    Company – Group Company
    Company Code – First company and Second company
    Factory Configurations
    For first company
    4 Factories will be 4 plants
    Factories Structure (Storage locations / warehouses and storage type)
    Since factories have different type of material ( like FG , Raw material , WIP ) therefore I am confused what option I should select 
    1) 3 storage location ( for each plant) and one warehouse, 1 storage type
    2) 1 storage  location and three warehouses (I think this is not possible in SAP , not sure ?? )
    3) 1 storage location , 1 warehouse and 3 storage types
    RDC structure
    RDCs have full fledged warehouse facility and therefore thinking of making them also as Plant. Every RDC will have 6 Storage locations , 1 for First company RDC itself, 5 for associated branches and I feel each “RDC storage locations” should be a associated to a separate warehouse also.
    ( Since both companies produce different set of products therefore they will have different material and hence thinking of handling products of both companies in same plant and same storage location and warehouse , may be two storage type/area can be defined to differentiate material of both companies.)
    Branches: Will be storage locations under RDC …..
    While making branches as Storage location …. I have another question about valuation , since material from Plant and RDC is being transferred to Branches and  from there it is distributed to customers therefore the valuation of FG at BRANCH and RDC should be different as transportation cost , packing , unpacking etc cost should get added at Branch level.
    Therefore in case I make branch as Storage location , I will miss the valuation part while if I make them as Plant then there will be lot of documents get generated for each movement. Hence not sure for what option I should go.
    R&D:
    Since R& D department is involved in testing in New Product development and generally material is required to be scrapped after testing therefore thinking of making it as Plant with one storage location and may be here I don’t need any warehouse (WM) here.
    Project Division
    Project division may also be a separate plant with one storage location and NO WAREHOUSE is required to linked with it.
    Purchase Organizations
    4 purchase organizations for each plant respectively and 1 centralized purchase Org for central procurement.
    Your all valuable inputs are welcome .... looking foward to have a best possible configuration for above mentioned case study.
    Regards

    Phew... long long question
    The rule I generally follow is that the org structure should map reality.
    Company code - where Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss are prepared at the end of the year. If an entity does not do this, it is not a company code.
    Plant
    1) Each manufacturing facility is a plant (could be in 1 location or separate).
    2) Each separate location is a plant (even if it only stores goods). May be an overkill, but helps when legal requirements change or the location is upgraded.
    So in your case, RDC will be a plant (may be more than 1 if necessary). R&D should be a separate plant without warehouse management
    Storage location
    The only rule I follow is that there should not be any overlap of storage locations. So physically, any area of say 1 square foot should belong to one and only one storage location. Otherwise there is a lot of confusion during physical inventory. So logical locations are a no-no.
    I usually use a lot of storage locations.
    Don't have a warehouse spanning multiple plants (even though it is allowed).
    Purchasing organizations
    Have one for each location of purchase. If there is a team sitting in each plant procuring for only that plant, have it as a separate purchasing org (not strictly necessary, but makes authorization simple). For central purchasing, a central purchasing org should do nicely...
    Hope this helps,
    Lakshman

  • Sales Organization Structure for Distribution Industry

    Hi Experts,
    Need some inputs wrt Distribution Industry
    1. In Distributor set up. how should we set up the different manufactures which supply the products for distribution.
    2. How should we link the manufactures to Products they supply.
    3. How should we link the sales representatives to specific manufactures.
    4. Would it be a wise decision to incorporate manufactures as a division in the organization structure. Or should we map the manufactures as vendors and maintain the Vendor Info records.
    It would be really great if any one can share their experiences wrt to sales organization structure in the Distribution industry especially Pharma Distribution.
    Regards,
    KK

    hi
    this is to inform you that:
    first of all  i have a question to you.  you are manufacturer of products that means are you paying excise duty for manufacturing products or only distributor of products.
    1. In Distributor set up. how should we set up the different manufactures which supply the products for distribution.
    1.a. You can consider if you are manufacturing and distrubuting products
    If you are a manufacturer - tae material FERT if you are a distributor - tae HAWA asa material type.
    2. How should we link the manufactures to Products they supply.
    2.a. the organisation struccture lins each other & MMR also helps to lin 
    3. How should we link the sales representatives to specific manufactures.
    3.a. it may be specific to divisions tae one sales group for each specific divisions.
    4. Would it be a wise decision to incorporate manufactures as a division in the organization structure. Or should we map the manufactures as vendors and maintain the Vendor Info records.
    4.a. manufacturer as a vendor and different products a divisions.
    It would be really great if any one can share their experiences wrt to sales organization structure in the Distribution industry especially Pharma Distribution.
    sales organizations : 2 - domestic & exports
    distribution channels : 3 - retail - super stocists - C & F agents.
    retail/wholesales/distributors/superdistributors/super distributors - all you can consider all into one distribution channel or tae as different distribution channels you have to analyse from reports perspective to have all these.
    divisions - products = divisions lie cardiac - orthopedic to name a few.
    sales office : you can have many as per your requriment.
    sales group : basing on divisions = sales groups
    company code = how many balance sheets you are submitting now to AAI that many company codes you have to have.
    batch management with FIFO or LIFO strategy has to be mandatory in implementation.

  • SAP MM Organization structure for the Utilities Industry

    Hi,
    Please let me know how does the typlical org structutre should look like for the Utilities company.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Material management organizational structure includes
    1. Purchasing Organization,
    2. Plant,
    3. Storage Location &
    4. Purchasing Group.
    Note:
    It depends how you project or design the purchasing group in the organization & purchase group can be created and represent as department .In general, company have many more departments & need to control & approval of all purchasing documents at department level & at the end to know cost incurred in each department with various activities( more then one& each GL represent one activity) .So in turn Purchasing group(department) is linked  to cost center and then different G/L accounts which represent various activities linked with the cost center.

  • Consignment Stock for Inventory Management

    Posting as a new thread...
    I have installed and loaded the Inventory Management Cube 0IC_03 in our development and quality systems.  During testing we have found just one problem with Consignment Stock.  The Stock Initialization (2LIS_03_BX) does not bring in an initial quantity (BWMNG) for any material flagged as a Consignment Stock (Stock Category = K, field BSTTYP). 
    My question - is there a good reason for this or is this a problem?  It causes a problem with reporting, because balances are now off.  Do I need to change how reporting is done for Consignment?
    It seems to me that the BX extractor should be picking up the initial balance.  I am trying to debug the code, but am getting a headache!
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Yes, I have reviewed the "How To..." documentation, but don't see anything regarding consignment stock.
    We are at BW 3.0b Support Pack 25.
    Lisa.

    Thanks, Ken.   I don't know that this note actually helped me, but I did another review of OSS notes.  We have applied 3 of them (726485, 756151, 762219) and our consignment issue has been resolved.
    Thanks for pointing me back in the right direction!
