Packing material in inbound delivery - intercompagny process with SPED

Hi,
I am processing intercompany stock transfer using SPED functionality, with automatic creation of inbound delivery.
Using HUM and WM storage location managed, I would like to add automatic packing material items in inbound delivery.
What I did already check:
1. there is a plant in HU (packing material type in transaction VHAR; plant determination: B).
2. there is an item category in HU (transaction 0184; following entry: EL / "blank" / PACK / / ELP -> Inbound delivery type EL, packing material has general item category group "blank" , then I expect item cat ELP in inbound delivery).
With these settings, automatic creation of inbound delivery does not work anymore: output SPED failed. Error message is VN056:
"Processing log for program /SPE/STO_ID_PROCESSING routine STO_ID_CREATION". When I check output analysis, it is mentioned for SPED : "Output ignored (requirement 408 not fulfilled)".
I also tried with following setting:
transaction 0184; delete previous setting; add following entry: EL / VERP / PACK / / ELP -> Inbound delivery type EL, packing material with general item category group VERP.
In that case, automatic inbound delivery creation OK but no packing material in it.
Any idea to help me?
Thanks in advance.

A few years ago I got some help that got some Inbound delivery functionality working, but it was never put into production.
1. Receiving storage location specified on the STO.
2. Receiving points set up in the receiving plant: IMG > Logistics Execution > Shipping > Basic Shipping Functions > Shipping Point & Goods Receiving Point Determination > Assign Goods Receiving Points for Inbound Deliveries.
3. On packaging material to be used the assigned packaging material group should coincide with the IMG setting of the packaging material type assigned to the packaging material group.
4. Assigned movement type 101 to the DIGN item category: IMG > Logistics Execution > Shipping > Basic Shipping Functions > Deliveries > Define Item Categories for Deliveries
Other settings but not mandatory
1. In delivery copying control assigned source NL to target DIG: IMG > Logistics Execution > Shipping > Basic Shipping Functions > Deliveries > Copying Control > Specify Copy Control for Deliveries > Define Item Categories for Deliveries
2. Make packing control mandatory for item category DIGN: IMG > Logistics Execution > Shipping > Basic Shipping Functions > Deliveries > Packing > Packing Control by Item Category
3. HUM Required for Plant/Storage Location: IMG > Logistics General > Handling Unit Mgmt > Basics > Technical Basics > Materials Mgmt > Inventory Mgmt > HU Requirement for Storage Locations
In our process the HU was already created in the Outbound delivery for the STO. These HU were then copied to the Inbound delivery. It still works in our DEV client, but it's not being used. Hope it helps.

What's the packing steps about inbound delivery ?

Who can tell me what's the packing steps about inbound delivery ? thanks.

You don't pack for inbound delliveries.. why would anyone do that?
One reason might be that the goods are packed...and you want to have information on packaging and want to manage the packmat inventory.
XG,
One possible sceanrio might be:
1. Create PO - ME21N (e.g.)
2. Enter confirmation. (you have to maintain confirmation control in config) - ME22N
3. Create inbound delivery with reference to shipping notification no. (or auto inbound delivery creation might be set) - VL31N (e.g.)
4. Enter bacth for the delivery item if batch management is set for your goods. (e.g. VL32N)
5. Click on "pack" icon (or menu > Edit > Pack) > When HU processing screen appears click on "pack" icon and create HU for the item - VL32N
(Based on your settings auto packmat item might be generated when creating the HU. If you have packaging instruction you can use "automatic packaging" icon as well)
6. If you use WM, please create the TO (menu > Subsequent functions > Create Transfer Order). You can carry out TO confirmation in LT12 if necessary - VL32N
7. Post GR - VL32N
(you can use VL06I to manage your IBDs)
There are other scenarios as well...(e.g. you can set auto PGR for TO confirmation, etc)

Add material to Inbound Delivery

Dear SAP Guru,
I have a question from my client.
As for Transfer Order creation, we used Inbound Delivery as reference document. But in some cases when the material arrived from Vendor, some materials are not in the Inbound Delivery.
Can we add a new material to Inbound Delivery and the material is reference to Purchase Order Line Item as Predesessor Data.
Thanks in advanced for any reply
Best Regards,
Sugiharto

Hi,
From a business point of view, you dont want this:
the vendor just ships stuff that you've never ordered and you just allow this;
even if you agree to keep the stuff, the vendor will send an invoice for this and without a PO, you dont have a reference;
The normal process would be, put the stuff in the 902, check whether you want to keep the stuff or not and add the materials to the PO and create an additional inbound delivery. You could also do a GR in blocked stock for this.
But in case you really wna this, go to customizing of the delivery type and set there that there is no need for a reference to a PO. This will allow you to add items or create inbound deliveries without reference to a PO.

Can't create Inbound Delivery for PO with Packing type material -- HU

Hi friends,
I create a new packing material, and maintain packing material type. And then create a PO but I can't create an inbound delivery by VL31N.
The error message:
No item category exists (Table T184L EL VERP V )
Message no. VL320
Diagnosis
There is no item category available in item category determination in the delivery (table T184L) for the following entries: EL VERP V
I tried to add new item by SM30 with T184L, but still more errors. So it doesn't mean there are erros with delievery type determination.
Any help?
Thanks,
Bruce

HUM Packing Proposals in Inbound Delivery

Hi All,
I have the following issue.
When we receive a delivery from a vendor and we perform the inbound delivery, the delivery defaults in the purchase order quantity. As we have setup packing proposals for that vendor, when we go to the pack view the HU structure has already been created, which is Ok for complete delivery.
When we have partial deliveries and try to change the receipt quantity we get an error that HU's have already been packed.
We do not want to have to go in and unpack everything each time we do a partial deliverya s this is very common.
Is the system working this way due to an auto pack option or is this how it works with packing proposals.
I would expect that when we change the dleivery we can go in to the pack screen and ask it to pack per the delievry quantity.
Any ideas?

Cancellation of Invoice, Material doc, Inbound delivery and TO

Hi
I have run the following business ME21N->VL31N->LT03(TO)->LT12(TO confirmation)->Material doc is created->MIRO.
Now i want to reverse the whole process. I have cancelled the Invoice then cancelled the Material document (MIGO), after the material document is cancelled a TR(LB11) is created, then i have created a TO from the TR created(LT04) ->TO confirmation. After this the quants are reversed from the bin to the GR area external reciepts.(nullifying with the first TO)
My question here is how to post the stock again i.e. from where should i start ? When i am trying to create TO wrt VL32n its not happening because the status showing as completed and is it possible to cancel the inbound delivery created, If yes how to do that.
The reason for this scenario is that the customer for some reason entered incorrect values and want to cancel the documents created.Everything should be cancelled except PO

Scenario 1
While creating the customer master my client forget to give the account assignment group in the billing tab of the sales area data. Because of this it did not hit the proper G/L Account. Automatically it went to some other accounts.
My question is weather we want to cancel only the invoice or we want to reverse the delivery
If your GL accounts will be determined based on the customer account assignment group and material account assginment group combination then you can enter manually in Billing document (if accounting document is not created), No need to reverse the invoice and delivery.
Second Scenario 2
My client taken the invoice without calculating the TAX and the same also released to accounts.
Now he wants to Add the TAX
You can cancel the previous invoice and create new invoice with taxes.

Inbound Delivery via Idoc with more than 1 line fails

Hi @ all,
i try to replicate inbound deliveries from an external system to SAP EWM using Idocs (SHP_IBDLV_SAVE_REPLICA02 with MessageType SHP_IBDLV_SAVE_REPLICA).
If there's only one position in inbound delivery it works, but if i try with two or more lines processing ends up with idoc-status 51 (WE02) and message 'Error inserting partner and location data at item level' (SLG1).
Any ideas to solve this problem?
kind regards

Hello Markus,
"i try to replicate inbound deliveries from an external system to SAP EWM using Idocs".
you are trying to send the information from non sap system?. Can you elaborate the scenario.
Is the case you are sending ASN information directly to eWM system.
Seems the process is more interesting. Can you please share details.
regards
Sastry

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

Inbound delivery quantity update with the confirm putaway quantity

even if i set up the update indicator (1or 2) during a TO confirmation, the system do not update the inbound delivery with the quantity confirmed, especialy in case of difference.
this option is possible during the TO creation, but not works with during the TO confirmation, could you help me?

It works with the outbound delivery only.
Though updating quantities in inb. delivery would be very useful for quantity difference handling.

Packing is not allowed for inbound Delivery

Hi guys
I was trying to pack the delivery item in inbound delivery with Pack function in delivery object before posting GR against Inbound Delivery. Though I have maintained customizing settings like this Inbound Delivery category ( ELN) is relavant for packing control. and created a packing material master record with packing material type and packing material group.
Here i am showing the screen shot with msg when I execute pack function in inbound Delivery object.
( Remember SLoc is WM Enabled...If I try to create a TO ....i am able to create against Inbound Delivery but not allowing me to pack)
Appreciate your inputs on this ..
( See attached link)

Hi,
I cannot see the attached link and I don't think it it is necessary.
It would be better if you described your process step-by-step (very shortly and clearly), and if you posted the exact error message with its ID (provided you have error message).
Thanks,
Csaba

L9 528 - Material cannot be used in Inbound Delivery because QM is active

Hi Colleagues,
So we have HUM products going into a warehouse managed location and we know that we cannot create an inbound delivery for these items if QM is active without 'HU inspection' selected in the QM inspection type of the material master
So the question
Is there anyway round this so that we can trigger the inspection lot creation at the goods receipt posting rather than at the HU level in the packing of the inbound delivery
Does anyone know if SAP plan to support this in the future?
Thanks
Steve

We are not using HUM however using WM. Nonetheless, the problem persist while creating inbounds.
We are trying to use the following approach to address this problem.
uncheck 'relev. for putaway' indicator from 'ELN' item category thus enabling VL31N to by-pass the hard stop incurred due to QM activation.
SAP's reason for this hardstop is to avoid inconsistencies that may arise when TO's are created for inbound deliveries before GR is posted. This scenario does not pertain to us since TO for inbounds before GR is not applicable. Therefore, we are enabling the above configuration. By doing this, we are breaking the link between inbound delvy's and WM, and thus disabling the functionality of creating TO's referencing inbound delvy's (transactions like LT03, LT0F become irrelevant).
But, this process will not work if we implement HUM since standard SAP will not allow to create a putaway TO referencing a TR or a material document. It becomes imperative to create a TO referencing a delvy, but this configuraton will break that link hence it will not work.
Best Regards.

Movement type issue-Generate HU packing material item in inbound dlv

Dear All,
I am using handling unit management with automatic generation of packaging material item in outbound and inbound delivery.
I am facing a problem in inter-company and intra-company STO flows.
For inter-co flow, I create PO doc type NB and an outbound delivery. When I do GI for this, and inbound delivery (EL) gets created. The movement type for generated packing items is 601 in outbound deliveries and 501 in inbound deliveries. That is working fine.
For intra-co flow, I have PO type UB and outbound delivery. When I do GI, again the inbound delivery type getting created is EL and the movement type for generated packing item in inbound delivery is again 501.
According to SAP:
Movement types for stock transfer within a company code:
For the movement types of the generated packaging material items, you use
603 (outbound deliveries) and 605 (inbound deliveries).
Movement types for stock transfers between company codes:
For the movement types of the generated packaging material items, you use
601 (outbound deliveries) and 501 (inbound deliveries).
Any ideas?

Hi,
Sorry, I think I made a mistake.
I have just found out that it's not possible to assign several confirmation category....
Since you are using SPED output, system calls FM GN_DELIVERY_CRATE to create inbound delivery.
Maybe you need to do modification.

         ELSE.
           GN_VWPOS = XKOMDLGN-VWPOS.
         ENDIF.
======================================================================
Here is where system set USAGE for item category determination.
In standard logic, for PO inbound delivery, it's using 'V' to determine item category.
If you need, maybe you can consider to do modification here to set different USAGE indicator to determine different item category.
