Out of Stock items

When creating a sales order ,
Is it possible for the item availability check to show items which are out of stock?
Clients request is as follows:
This is the box (item availability check ) that I am after, at the moment it pops up when we try to put on a sales order for a product that isnt in stock and doesnt have any on purchase order, Preferably we would like this box to appear if physical stock isnt available and not take into account whether there is any on purchase order or not.
Is there any other way to show out of stock item when creating a sales order apart from using the remarks box and then form settings?

The existing functionality of Item availability Check could not be changed. You could enable the In Stock column (from Form settings) to see current onhand quantity for that Item in the Sales Order Rows.

Out of stock item STUCK in cart!

Tried multiple browsers and OS's. There's a single item in my cart and it's OOS. When I click "Remove this item" it never actually leaves my cart. I can't actually make any purchases until this is fixed because when clicking "Check Out" it wants you to remove the item from the cart that is out of stock.

Hello MichaelG,
Not being able to remove items from your cart, which in turn prevents you from purchasing other items, does sound quite frustrating, and I'm very sorry to hear this has happened to you. I would be happy to see how I can assist.
It seems that in previous instances this issue has resolved itself after about 24-48 hours. With that said, there are certainly some things you can do that may also help alleviate this. We suggest performing these tasks in the order listed:
Log out of your BestBuy.com account
Clear all cookies, cache, and history information from your browser
Add the item you’re wanting to purchase to your cart (currently as a guest)
Go to the checkout page and login to your account as a returning customer
Attempt to remove the previously unavailable item if it’s still there
After performing these steps, please let me know if this was successful! If not, I would suggest trying a different browser all together, or trying on our mobile website via a smartphone.
I hope this information is helpful, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks for posting!

Out of stock item online

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/ibuypower-desktop-intel-core-i5-16gb-memory-1tb-hard-drive/5574058.p?id=...
I was going to buy this computer but it went out of stock when I went back to buy it.
Will best buy restock this item soon?

They should restock it.
I am not 100% on this but my belief is when a certain item is in fairly high demand they will take only so many back orders before listing is as sold out online. They don't want to get to much of a gap between demand and supply.
Or it could have been cleared out and they are waiting until the last one ships before removing it from the system.
I was in the market for a particular computer that they had listed this way for about 10 days. I finally purchased the next size up. That particular model is now no longer listed.

Stock control – hide if out of stock

Hi,
I’m trying to figure out the best way to go with a site I’m building. The client has hundreds of products and if a product is sold they want the item hidden from the website. The issue is – if I choose that option – hide if out and stock and most items there is only 1 of – then when that product is added to the visitors cart the items disappears and says This product is unavailable or out of stock. I’ve added js to say Product added successfully however if the visitor wants to look at their item again (by clicking on it in their shopping cart) then the message comes up ‘This product is unavailable or out of stock’. This can be confusing for customers so I’m wondering what’s the best way to work around this? Ideally it would be great if the customer could still see their item.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Cheers
EM

You do not need javascript for that, you can just show hide elements that are in or out of stock.
You can also hide out of stock items in the admin itself so products once out of stock do not even show.
You can update your script as an other option to look at the cart and if the item on the page is in the cart just have something that says "this item is already in your cart" as well.
Lots of options, depends on what your after.

How To Hide In Stock/Out Of Stock System Wide?

Hi,
We are selling items that are setup as Bills of Material. The problem is that they always show as Not In Stock on the website. This is because the stock levels come from OITM (Items in B1) and for BoMs the matching item in B1 does not get a stock level. Since the item stock level is the one used in Web Tools, I would simply like to hide any warnings about items being 'Not In Stock' because it's not an accurate statement. I know the customer can still place an order but it might make someone change their mind about ordering an item if they 'think' it's not in stock.
Is there any system wide setting to hide all stock level indications and warnings about out of stock items?
Thanks,
David Wall

Hello David,
This is possible, but it is a couple of steps:
1) In windows explorer navigate to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\b1webtools\catalog\controls\ and open up partpriceblock.ascx with a text editor such as note pad. You want to modify the following lines by putting comment marks around them like this (HTML comment marks are )
     
For the instock/out of stock and

To hide the inventory count.
2) You will also need to modify the cart.aspx page which can be found in c:\intepub\wwwroot\b1webtools\commerce\ like this:
                
3) And lastly the cartdetaillistblock.ascx control which can be found in the controls folder of the above stated directory. Modifying as shown below:

It should also be noted than an upgrade will overwrite these changes, but in the majority of situations you can reuse the modified ASPX/ASCX pages by overwriting the newer pages with the older modified pages.
Hope this makes sense.
Kind Regards,
James

HP Pavilion 15-p085TX Notebook PC_Laptop Out Of Stock

I ordered HP Pavilion 15-p085TX Notebook PC_Laptop four days back. Prior to ordering I asked them how much time will it take to ship, they said 5-6 days and it will be delivered at home.
Now after I have made the payments I am told it will take another 2 weeks. This is ridiculous.
Why do you accept orders on a "out of stock item" ? Bad inventory design.

I just sent you a private message. If you are not sure how to check your forum messages, this post has instructions.

In V_V2 the role of Sort Item by date of creation and Sort by delivery date of earliest schedule line for the Sales Orders when Material is out of Stock.

Hi All,
Good Morning,
I am working on once Incident for Re-Scheduling Program V_V2 where the user has requested us to change the criteria for determining the priority of Sales Document based on Sort Item by date of creation. Currently they are using the Sort by delivery date of earliest schedule line in the Variant.
I would like to know the role these both options play in the Re-Scheduling program V_V2. I would like to know the impact of both of them and the kind of testing I need to perform to study the behaviour of Sales Orders especially when the material is out of stock?
Please explain with help of examples.
Thanks
Farhan.

This is not that simple that an example would explain how this transaction works but I'll give you some examples.
Material A has SO1 and SO2 of 10KG each, stock is 20KG so both quantities are confirmed at today. A stock recount determines a reduction to 5KG. This program would change confirmed quantity of SO1 to 5KG and SO2 to 0KG if:
Creation date of SO1 is older then SO2 in strategy 1
1st delivery date of SO1 is smaller then SO2 in strategy 2
Material B has SO1 and SO2 with 10KG each but no quantity confirmed, stock is 0KG. A prodution adds 15KG to stock. The program would change confirmed quantities of SO1 to 10KG and SO2 to 5KG if:
Creation date of SO1 is older then SO2 in strategy 1
1st delivery date of SO1 is smaller then SO2 in strategy 2
I'm assuming a specific configuration, there are many other scenarios possible.
regards,
Edgar

Out of stock Sales Order Item to trigger a BDC to create a PO

Dear ABAPers,
I have a couple of questions:
1. In the sales order program code, how do you find out if an item being ordered is out of stock? Which tables and fields do you check?
2. when an item is determined to be out of stock, we want to trigger a BDC to create a PO. How do you do that?
I know these are big questions. You can give me either an overview or detail solution, it's up to you.
Thanks!

Hi,
Assuming all the basic settings are configured
Step1: Run T Code VA01 and input the u201Cdocument typeu201D as OR along with your sales area. Then enter your business partner number along with the material number and quantity. Save the order.
Step2: T Code VA03 input the order number which you have created. Select the line item and (menu bar) Goto u2013 Items u2013 Schedule lines. You will find the u201Cpurchase requisitionu201D for that item just copy the number.
Note: If you unable to see the u201Cpurchase requ201D in the sales order then make sure you need to change the Item category group of a material in MM02 as BANC in Sales: sales org 2 tab.
Step3: Run T Code ME21N under the item paste the u201Cpurchase requisitionu201D number generated at sales order level and hit enter that will automatically give all the details, save. You can save the Purchase order.
This scenario will only help to create purchase order until I know why you want to create a purchase order I canu2019t proceed further.

Goods receipt indicator is PO is not set for Stock -item

Hi Gurus,
I have created PO for a raw material but it is so strange that the Goods receipt indicator in Delivery tab is not set (it is greyed out also). Then, I cannot do Goods receipt for PO anymore.
Normally, this Goods receipt indicator is set automatically if material is stock-item.
Can anyone help me find out the reason?
Thanks,
Hong

Hi,
For the material type RAW MATERIAL , aganist your plant ( Which is given in the PO) have you activated QTY UPDATE check box?
Check in the transcation OMS2
Select your material type and click on the Qty update / Value update ( Which is in the left hand side window).
Check QTY UPDATE check box aganist ur plant code. If not activated, check / activate check box.
If this check box is activated, then only GR checkbox is activated in the PO - Delivery screen

Substitute Ingredient when out of stock in Bill of Materials?

Hi, Is there a way to have substitute items in a bill of materials? If an ingredient is out of stock could sap business one suggest an alternative ingredient when making a production order?
Thank you.

Hi Jose ..
The issue is that alternative items functionality is not implemented in the Product Trees as if it is possible to use in sales documents (ctrl + tab)
In this case, what you can do is check the stock and if one is not covered, the teacher would have to open the product and from there check your Alternative for manual update on the Product Trees

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...

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 ?

Automatic Purchase Requestition creation for item category "L" (Stock Item)

Hi All,
I have a query,
When components are assigned to a maintenance order whose item category is "L" (Stock Item).
As soon as components are assigned a reservation number is generated by the system immediately.
Now my requirement is,
for an item category which is "L" (Stock item), while I am saving / releasing the order, system should do availability check and based on the qty available it should automatically generate reservation (in case of full qty is available) or a purchase requisitions ( in case of non availability).
Is this feasible? If so kindly let me know how it can be done.
Currently in my case,
i am getting a reservation number for an an item whose item category is "L" but the stock qty is "zero". System should have ideally generated a purchase requisitions number for such a case because of actual available qty being "zero"
Is there any setting called "reservation time" so that after checking the availability of that item system decided whether a reservation number should be generated or a purchase requisition number?
Thanks and with best regards
Kannan J

Hi Thyagarajan,
I wud like to share with you a content of SAP documentation which is as follows:
"You can plan materials that are required to execute the task for each operation in the maintenance order. The materials can be bill of material components for the reference object or freely assigned material.
<u>The materials that you plan for the maintenance order will be reserved in the warehouse, if they are kept in stock. You can set the reservation time in your system using the customizing function. In customizing, it is decided for each order type, whether the system should make the material reservation effective or generate the purchase requisition immediately or only when the order is released.</u>
An availability check can be called up when components are assigned in the order.
An automatic availability check is performed when the order is released. The order can also be released if there is no availability.
A material provision list and material withdrawal slips can be printed together with the order papers.
Planned goods issues are entered with reference to the reservation, such as reservation number, unplanned goods issues with reference to the order number.
The goods issues entered appear in the document flow of the order."
Now with this, is there a way out to resolve the issue?
Best Regards
Kannan J

Schedule line confirmation date for 3rd party sales( non stock item)

Hi ,
While creating an sales order i have a stock item and 4 non stock items . All the non stok items are similar to 3rd party sales as they are services . While created the sales order for the no stock item the confirmed schedule date is given as 12 days in the future or in one case after month .
Can someone please help me in understanding how the dates are being calculated . I havent created any PO for the non stock items.
I would like the confirmed date to be picked as the system date.

Hi,
There can be multiple reasons for this.
You have not mentioned the material type. Anyhow, first check Material Master
Purchasing view> GR Processing Time field
Sales / general Plant > Set up time and processing time field
If MRP views are maintained
In MRP2 View > Scheduling.
In case you do not want availability check to be carried out
Untick Availbility check and TOR check boxes in VOV6 for the schedule lines determined for these materials.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sharan
