Packaging material to auto-generate lines in delivery & PGI

Dear Experts,
The requirement is to have the inventory for packaging material to reduce on PGI.
I am trying to resolve this by getting the packaging materials used in the delivery to auto-generate new line line/s. I have set the packaging material's GenerateDlvItms to "B" & checked the box to "generate packaging material items" in the delivery type, but no lines get created!
Whats the right way to reduce packaging material stock on PGI?
Does generating the line in delivery help? If yes, hows the right way to do it?
Please advice.
Many thanks in advance !
Best regards,
Rohit L.

Make changes to auto generated line items when posting invoice thru MIRO?

Hi All,
My requirement is to make some changes in line items data when posting invoice through MIRO transaction.
I have written a substitution for the same, The issue is that some line items get automaticaly created (i.e inter company posting). I need to make changes to these line items as well but substitution is not being triggered for these auto generated line items.Is there any way by which I can update in these line items as well ?
further do we have any internal table which holds all the line items at runtime....to which I can refer and make the changes. I have searched but could not find one.
Can anybody provide some inputs on this.
Thanks,
Lucky.

Hi Kaushik,
Thanks for your reply.
I am using BADI INVOICE_UPDATE but here we will not be having line items which are auto generated.
When we do inter company posting, line items are automatically created and these are not avaliable in the BADI. I am not sure if we can trap these line items any where.....the possible alternative which I can think of is to use memory reference and modify the internal table which holds all the items but unfortunately I am not able to find any such internal table to refer to at run time ...have u got any idea on this?
Thanks,
Lucky.

Business Area for auto generated line items

Dear All,
If business area is XXXX then business place/section code is BXXXX.
If co code XXXX, then profit center = business area.
Both the above substitutions exist in our production system. I have set Business
Area & profit center fields mandatory for certain postings keys.This doesnt create any problem for normal postings. But when a transaction generate auto postings like service tax seperate line item, TDS line items, price difference etc SAP throws error for Business area or profit center. Pls guide with a solution to this issue.
Your inputs are valuable.

Copy text to auto generated line items

Does anyone know how we could populate the text field automatically when the tax lines are generated during posting. We have set the editing option "copy text for GL account entry" but it never populates the autogenerated lines. Header Text would be fine as we realize on a multi line document the text could be different on each line item and the system could not determine which line to use. Thanks very much for your thoughts and ideas.

Hi,
You may need to use a substitution along with that with help of ABAP programmers have to write a user exit which
does this functionality which you are looking for.
hope this helps

Automatic Packaging material as delivery item

Hello Friends,
In the delivery document there was a automatic packaging material created and deleted in the delivery document, due to which the weight is pickedfrom that of item of delivery document and not from the Handling unit.
I would like to know in what circumstances the automatic packaging material get added to the delivery document, when i observe the changes for the document there were some changes in the Net weight and Gross weight.
Can you guage anything from the above statements, how is that an automatic packaging material is added.
Thank you.

Hi,
Are you using automatic packing functionality in SAP?
As the name specifies, this can be used to pack materials automatically; based on pre-defined set of instructions. Once those instructions are configured, at delivery creation point, materials will be packed automatically.

How to treat packaging material at GR / no track

Guru ,
i have done GR for a material with a packaging material which consistutes a handling unit .
ie handling unit= materaial + packaging material .
when i did GRN , maetrial is shown in the storage location . fine .
where is the packaging material along the material gone . NO trace of it .
please help , my question is genuine .
manu

Hi Manu,
I assume your basic settings for handling units are ok (e.g. item category group settings in material master for packmat and to-be-packed material - e.g. MARA-VHART, MVKE-MTPOS, MARA-MAGRV).
What you have to do:
- SPRO > LE > SHipping > Deliveries > Define Item Category Determination for Deliveries - here you have to set: "Delivery type"-"Item category group"-"Usage"-"item category high level item"-Item category" combination (e.g.: LF-LEIH-PACK-<empty>-DLN)
- SPRO > LE > Shipping > Pack > Define Packaging Material Types - here you have to maintain Plant determination for HU" field for your packmat ("Plant proposed from the first item that was packed).
Please also ensure whether generation of packaging material type is allowed for the delivery type you use: SPRO > LE > Shipping > Deliveries > Delivery Type - here set "Gen. pack. matl. item"
If these settingsare ok > create the delivery in VL01N > pack the main item (VL02N > (menu) Edit > Pack). Whe you go back to overview you should see the newly generated item for your packaging material.
If you want the packaging material item automatically generated when you create the delivery, you have to:
- maintain packaging instruction for the to-be-packed item
- set auto pack indicator for delivery type (SPRO > LE > Shipping > Deliveries > Delivery Type - here set "Automatic packing")

No item generated for packaging material in delivery - packing (how?)

Hi all,
I am trying to customize packing for deliveries. I would like to have the packaging material as a line item in the delivery. I know this is possible but I can't seem to make it happen.
I have already ticked "Gen. pack.matl item" in my delivery type. Also, I have selected in the packaging type "B Item generation in first packed delivery" for "generatedlvItms" option.
Now, in the delivery after I packed the items, no line item was generated in the delivery for the packaging material. The "No. of Packages" in item overview is correct and the status is "C" completely packed. Btw, I am using manual packing here.
Is there some more configurations I missed here?
Thanks in advance for all your help.
Edited by: Ritchie Caleb Chua on Aug 9, 2011 3:53 AM

I assume that your basic HU configuration and master data have to be ok because you are able to pack your goods.
1) Are you able to add your item w/o HUM (=not by creating a HU, just adding the material as a simple item) to the delivery? /For this you need define a record in T184L (where usage "PACK" is not there)/.
If you are able it means that e.g. your delivery copy control settings are ok (V_TVCPLAK; delivery type: LF and sales doc type: DL --> HUPM/DLN item categories in your case)
2) If you are able to
- create the handling unit manually in the delivery
- add the packing item to the delivery (w/o HUM) and also have the T184L with usage "PACK"
- item generation is maintained for your packing material time "A" or "B" in field V_TVTY-KZPGN
- plant determination for packing material type ("A" or "B" in field V_TVTY-WERFD)
it should work in my opinion (for delivery type LF).

Delivery item for HU Packaging Material

Hi all,
I have a problem in Packing (LM46) using HU management. When I pack the HU to a delivery it creates another line item (900001) for the packaging material used in the HU. I have not set this functionality for the delivery type (LF). Can't figure out why this is happening, does anyone know what else I should check for ?
Thanks in advance,
D.

Hi,
a delivery item is also generated for the packing material, if a plant was determined/added for the packing material and an item type was determined for it
you should check
- transaction 0184 for the item type determination and
- transaction vhar for the plant determination
(the other case is if
-an item type was determined for the packing material -> 0184,
- the delivery item creation for packing material is set for the delivery type -> 0vlk and
- delivery item creation is also set for the packaging material type -> vhar)
note 831204 describes these two cases when a delivery item is generated for the packing material
I hope I could help you.

How to enter a returnable packaging material during inbound delivery?

Hi,
How do you add a returnable packaging material from vendor as a line item in the inbound delivery? When I try to add a LEIH type material as a line item in the inbound delivery (VL32N), the following error is displayed:
"No item category exists (Table T184L EL VERP ELP)"
Thanking you in advance,
Sreelakshmi

HI.
Please reffer the below link.
ERROR : No item category exists (Table T184L LB VERP )
Error while creating I/B delivery: No item category exists (Table T184L EL)
1) EL = is the delivery type you are using for Returns to Vendors
2) VERP = is the Item Category Group in the material master of
3) ELP= Item Usage
You have to add the missing configuration as follow:
IMGLogistics ExecutionShippingDeliveriesDefine Item Category
Determination in Deliveries(Transaction 0184).
Create a new entry or copy from an existing one for VERP. NOTE: The Delivery Item Category RLLN is the standard defined by SAP, be
sure you enter the one defined in you company.
Thanking you

Auto generate CRUD packages for tables

Hi there
Is there any tool which can auto generate select/insert/update/delete packaged procedures in PL/SQL? I know that JPublisher can then create Java wrapper classes based on these packages, but it seems that the first step wouln't be that hard to implement. In fact, maybe I'll od it myself if nobody did it so far...

Hi SQL nevigator has this fecility. you can get the crud matrix using following menu option.

Splitting Replenishment Generated PO by Delivery Lead Time

Dear Folks,
When I run replenishment, I would like the auto generated PO to be created based on the replenishment lead time/planned delivery date.
Is that possible?
For example, I have 2 SKU, one with planned delivery time of 2 days and 1 with planned delivery time of 1 day by the same vendor for same plant.
When I do a replenishment run, I would like to have 2 PO created.
Best Regards
JW

Dear folks,
It could be that my original question was not very clear.
In each PO line items, there is this field 'Delivery Date', this date is usually derived from the Planned Delivery Time from the material/article master. I am using SAP retail.
Basically, what I would like to achieve when I run auto-replenishment is:
- different PO created with each PO containing on the items with the same 'delivery date'.
- if an item has a different delivery date from the rest, a separate PO will be created.
Assume that the requirements/demands are already triggered - reorder point etc.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
Best Regards
JW

Strange behaviour of packaging material

Hi Gurus,
I found a strange problem.
The loading group of packaging material in material master is not copied to delivery note item after generating the packaging material.
I don't know what's wrong with it. Please give me some clues.
Thank you,
Gunadi

Hi Gunadi
Check for the following:
Using MM01, create material type=packaging test_pack
[SPRO]
IMG-Logistics Execution-Shipping-Packing-
Define Packaging Material Types
Let's say JPAC. The settings that I chose:
Plant determ. - Plant is entered manually in handling unit
Pack. matl. cat. - Packaging materials
Generate Dlv. Items - blank
Number assignment - Number range interval 'HU_VEKP'
IMG-Logistics Execution-Shipping-Packing-
Define material group for packaging material
Let's say JGRP
IMG-Logistics Execution-Shipping-Packing-
Define allowed packaging materials
JGRP - JPAC
MM02: Check settings for the materials
First, test_pack
Sales:General/Plant -> Matl. Grp. Pack. Matls: JGRP (Note)
Sales:General/Plant -> Packaging Mat. Type: JPAC (Note)
Basic Data 1 -> Material: JMAT
Then, shirt_jai
Sales:General/Plant -> Matl. Grp. Pack. Matls: JGRP
Sales:General/Plant -> Packaging Mat. Type: -
Basic Data 1 -> Material: JMAT
VL01N Outbound Delivery -> Packing
Enter the materials at top and at bottom
(Select shirt_jai and
Edit - Pack)
This is how the basic process of packing works.
The "Packing Process" with an Example
Example:
You created a order for a material(R-1160 - hard disks) for a qty - 120 pieces.
You need to create a delivery and
A)pack 40 pieces each of the material are grouped together into larger cardboard boxes (PK-100 - shipping/packing material) and
B)these 3 cardboard boxes are put into pallet (PK-095).
Solution:
A)Packing 40 pieces each of material (40 x 3 = 120 pieces)
1)Goto [VL02N] to change the delivery, you already created.
Or you can do the following steps while you are creating a delivery also.
2)Go to "pack" icon.
3)In the upper section, enter the "packing material" (PK-100)
4)In the lower section, change the "partial quantity" to 40 of material R-1160.
5)Select both the lines of upper section and lower section and click the green ok. It generates a shipping unit/handling unit number.
6)Now, select both lines of upper & lower section & click the button "per part. qty" (New HU per part qty of material)
Check: click "General Overview" icon to see whether it packed 40 pieces of material in 3 cartons.
B)Packing all 3 cartons in one big carton(PK-095)
1) from above screen, click "pack HUs" (pack shipping unit)
2)enter the packaging material (PK-095) in the upper section and select this line.
3)select 3 lines of PK-100 in lower section since you want to pack them in PK-095.
4)selecting both lines, click "pack" icon.
5)Now all the 3 cartons(PK-100 with 40 pieces each of material) are packed in one big carton (PK-095).
Check: "General overview" icon.
