Packing proposals in quotation

Hi Gurus,
i would like create packing proposals in quotation (T.C. VA21)
There's an option of packing proposal in sales order in the menu extras->packing proposal. But this option is greyed out in Quotation. I need to activate this.
Or if it's impossible, how can i do something similary in quotation?
Please help me.. it's very important...
Regards,
Alba

Hi Alba,
Including packing functinoality in Quotation is not possible.
First of all, just think of hte process. Packing should be possible only just before delivery when the materials are ready to be delivered. Until then, there is no need to pack the materials in specific way. Hence until Delivery creation, there is no need for packing the material in SAP.
During quotation, a sale even is not happening. How can packing be done, when there is no sale and hence no need for delivery.
Considering these facts, SAP has given the packing functionality only for hte applications V2 and V7 which are delivery and packing , and not for any ohter application like V1 for sales order or for V3 which is for billing.
Hope this helps you

  • 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?
    Thnaks
    Stuart

    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.

  • Packing Proposal in Quotation

    Thanks & regards

    Hi,
       The controlling parameter is really sd document category , you could try changing B to C ,  you could see the packing proposal surfaced out , now you need to sit with an technical resource and handle this issue.
    because if you change to C probably the document would behave as an order too.

  • Packing proposal in Sales Quotation

    Good afternoon,
    We are not able to create packing proposal from a sales quotation. We
    discovered that it if we change the document type from quotation to
    sales order it becames available. Which is the reason? It seems to be a product error.
    We urgently need to use the packing proposal in the quotation.
    Thanks in advance

  • Packing Cost at Order Level

    Hi all!!
    I have a problem regarding transport & packing at order level:
    how can i add (in pricing procedure) at cost level (at VPRS level, where i have the cost of material ordered by customer) the cost of packing and the cost of the transport.
    Are there condition type that i can use?
    For istance, in order (after i have done the packing proposals, i see that i will use 7 boxes (that costs 3 EUR/PC): there is a condition type (as VPRS ) that takes the cost of packing material and puts it in pricing procedure???
    Many thanks to all.

    Dear  Lakshmipathi,
    thanks for your answer. I would like to have some info:
    you say that i have to create a condition type & access sequence.
    So:
    1a) what kind of condition type? (like PR00 for packaging material, at price level, before tax in pricing procedure?)..
    1b) if i try to give to Packaging Material a conditior record (with condition type PR00) why i don't see it in pricing procedure in the order? I have to insert packaging material as Item level? (because i have only done packing proposals)
    2) i would prefer to put this condition type among costs (after VPRS)
    3) if i want to insert shipment cost (always among costs after VPRS) what kind of condition type can I use?

    Packing proposals in sales orders and scheduling agreements
    It is possible to enter packing proposals in sales orders and scheduling agreements. These specifications automatically lead to a packing proposal in the delivery if a special data transfer routine is maintained in Customizing for copying control between the sales documents and the delivery. The packing proposal can be changed in the delivery. It is also possible to pack the delivery according to the packing proposal in the preceding document by using the Use proposal function in delivery processing.
    Define the data transfer routine:
    SPRO > LE > Shipping > Copy Control > Define FORM Routines for Data Transfers (menu > Data Transfer > Handling Units)
    Set the routine in copy control
    SPRO > LE > Shipping > Copy Control > Specify Copy Control For Deliveries (see field: V_TVCPLAK-GRUVS)

  • Pls help me in Packing

    Dear Guru
    I have doubt in Packing, pls give me the step
    regards
    Mohammed Renu.I

    Hi Mohammed,
    Please find below Step by Step process of Packing:
    PACKING PROCESS
    Packaging materials are materials used for packing or transporting goods. To store the packing information for an outbound delivery in the system, you must first specify a packaging material and create material master records for different packaging materials (material type VERP). In the material master, you specify special data such as packing weight and volume permitted for each shipping material. You can also activate this field for different material types.
    Selected items from an outbound delivery can be packed in an individual packaging type called a Handling Unit. The handling unit is assigned a unique sequential number from a predefined number range. The handling unit header contains information about the packaging material used in packing. The overview screen of the packaging material displays the quantities of the delivery items or other handling units. You can change or enhance the data proposed from the material master record of the packaging material to include additional information, such as a pallet number.
    Packing is primarily the process of assigning delivery items to packaging materials. This produces handling units, which can then in turn be packed in additional packing materials. Multilevel packing is also possible. You can also unpack items from handling units, as well as emptying and deleting the handling units themselves.
    In customizing, you specify if each delivery item category is “relevant for packing”. Possible settings are –
    a. packing allowed (default)
    b. packing not allowed
    c. packing mandatory
    The system updates the packing status for each item in the outbound delivery, for example – partially packed or fully packed.
    The packing function is available in following documents –
    a. Sales Orders (as packing proposals)
    b. Inbound and Outbound deliveries
    c. Shipment document.
    The packing proposal in the order can be copied to the outbound delivery. You can control this at the header level in the copy control table for deliveries. You can make packing in the outbound delivery subject to certain conditions. You activate the settings for this in customizing (standard: packing now allowed if there is credit block).
    You can change packing in the outbound delivery as long as post goods issue has not been done. Packing in the outbound delivery is copied to the shipment. You can then choose to pack all the deliveries together.
    You can use user exits to specify rules for automatic packing during creation of outbound deliveries. You activate automatic packing for each delivery type separately.
    Similar packaging materials are grouped together in packaging material types. The material grouping for packaging materials is used to group together materials that have similar packaging requirements (for example, materials requiring same packaging materials).
    You can display the allowed packaging materials for a material to be packed. The packaging materials are proposed from the table allowed Packaging Materials for each material group which you maintain in customizing. The system checks if the packaging material being used for packing is allowed. However, if the field Material Group: Packaging material has not been maintained in the material master, this material can be packed in any packaging material – depending on the weight and volume check.
    Packing instructions can be used as packing proposals for online processing or as packing rules for Automatic packing. Packing instructions determination is carried out using the condition technique, for which you must define a corresponding procedure and condition types where three standard access sequences have been provided. Automatic packing can be implemented using either packing instructions and or a customer enhancement (packing sessions).
    Packing instructions consist of –
    a. packing materials
    b. materials to be packed
    c. text items
    d. subordinate packing instructions
    e. rules concerning rounding, minimum quantities and so on
    f. definition of a check profile
    Check this link
    http://sap-img.com/sap-sd/the-packing-process-with-an-example.htm
    IMG-Logistics Execution-Shipping -Packing.
    1. Define packaging material types- it can be anything like boxes crates, etc. in this you have to maintain the output determination procedure, output type, plant determination, packaging material category, generate delivery items, number assignment. You can copy from standard also.
    2. Then go to define material group for packaging materials - here you maintain the four digit code and the description. Actually, this group is nothing but similar products which require similar packing products. For Ex. Nokia Phones all types they are basically packed first into a polythene bag. So here nokia phones can become a material group for packaging materials and polythene bag can become the packaging material type which can include different sizes and types of polythene bags.
    3. Define Allowed Packaging Materials - Here you assign the shipping group for packaging materials to the packaging material type. This is related to your material master data of the packaging material which you create.
    4. Now go to MM01 to create a packaging material. use material type as Packaging material then inside the system will take the item category group as VERP. Then in the Basic Data1 screen you have the material group for packaging material (MGPM). Select the proper one. Now in the Sales: General/ Plant screen you have to maintain data regarding the packaging. You select the MGPM same as the basic data 1 screen, and then select the packaging material type, the allowed pkh weight, allowed pkg volume. This is important because if the weight of your finished item is 2 KG and in the allowed pkg weight you enter only 1.5 KG, then while you carry out the packing process in delivery, the system will give you error," packaging weight exceeded." The assignment in the IMG screen for Define allowed packaging materials should be same as u mention in the material master. Then save your material master for packaging material.
    5. VA01 create the order, save it.
    6. VL01N enter shipping point, go to edit - pack- you will face a screen with 2 parts. In the top part you select your packaging material in which you want to pack your finished item, enter the system will assign a number to that material. Now select the Material in the top part and the finished one in the lower part and click on the Icon Pack. Here one thing has to be taken care of. Suppose if you want to pack only one finished item in one packaging material, then in the lower part of the screen you have a field for partial quantity here you change it to 1. System will prompt quantity changed. Now you select the material in the top part and the one in the lower part and click on the PER PART. QTY ICON. In this way the system will pack only one finished item in a single packaging material. Packing is done go back, select the picking and do the PGI. Save the delivery and create the invoice.
    HANDLING UNITS.
    Basically handling units come into picture when you want to carry out multi level packing. Suppose you want to pack Nokia phone first into a polythene bag, then this polythene bag is again packed in to box. like that. Then this box will become a handling unit. For this go to:
    IMG - Logistics General - Handling Unit Management - Basics.
    1. In basics you do the same thing as you did in the packing in logistics execution. like you create the packaging material type, then MGPm and their assignment.
    2. Then go to External Identification - and maintain the number ranges for the handling units that you want and assign the same to your packaging material type.
    3. Now that you have done everything, create the order, save it, in VL01N, enter shipping point, go to edit - pack - do the same thing as I have told you in the step no. 6 (above). now after doing select the PACK HUs TAB. NOW IN THIS SCREEN IN THE TOP PART YOU WILL SEE THE ALREADY PACKED MATERIAL. In that same part again select your next packaging material that is BOX. Enter the system will assign the number to the BOX.
    4. Now select the material which you have just entered and the materials which were already packed in the lower part of the screen and click on the ICON PACK.
    This is what I know about the packing process and the handling unit. you have many things in the handling unit management which can be very useful for automatic packing.

  • Packing proposal at SO

    Dear Experts,
    The query describe with an eg.

    Material M2
    Packing instruction 3
    Pack Material CARTON2- 1PC, Material M1 1500 Pcs
    At sales order I need to propose either of two packing instructions for a material. When I create SO, system always takes Packing instruction2 automatically and ignores packing instruction 1. How can i propose either of two packing instructions?
    2) I have M1 & M2 together have 750 pcs each, how
    I need t o pack together. How this can be proposed automatically by the system?. For certain materials I can be packed together and certain materials cannot. Can we define in system this reqmt, pls?

  • Correct usage of Scheduling Agreements?

    Hi Experts!
    One of my groups is using scheduling agreements, however I do not think they are using it the way SAP had intended. 
    Example:  They use Scheduling agreements, similar to a blanket order.  However, the blanket order quantity is fluid and the order can remain open even when the initial quantity has been fulfilled.  These Scheduling Agreements will contain many items, sometimes around 30-40 line items.
    The staff basically conducts two activities for these customers:  enter new scheduling agreements with updated validity dates and expedite releases with a less than two week time frame.  These expedites are communicated by the customer via email. 
    The customers submit a 16 week forecast via EDI as well as a firm 2 week JIT.  Most scheduling agreement activity occurs systematically, although there are daily expedites for each customer for a few parts.
    Initially, when entering a scheduling agreement, the staff does not indicate the JIT schedule.  However, they do enter into the Forecast delivery schedule, basically just to activate and allow communication from customer.
    My concern is should scheduling agreements contain that many items?
    Also, the staff makes many changes in the scheduling agreements and when it reaches the time when the period for the scheduling agreement, what ever material they did not get to ship, they ship it to the customer in one bulk.  Are you suppose to do that with scheduling agreements?
    In addition, sometimes the staff allocates some of the materials promised to the customer on the scheduling agreements to another customer, then just re-allocates it back at a later time...should this be done or is it bad business practice?
    What are good business practices for usage of Scheduling Agreements?  Any information will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you for your time in advance!

    <b>you should not do that the reason is SA is use full for the JIT and promise to deliver things</b>
    In addition, sometimes the staff allocates some of the materials promised to the customer on the scheduling agreements to another customer, then just re-allocates it back at a later time...should this be done or is it bad business practice?
    <b>It's depent on the company bussiness policy - not rgiht process but if bussiness want to do then what else you can do?</b>
    What are good business practices for usage of Scheduling Agreements? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time in advance!
    <b>A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
    You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity. The following graphic shows the document flow for scheduling agreements.
    The same functions are at your disposal for processing scheduling agreements as there are for the sales order, including pricing and availability checks.
    In addition to the standard scheduling agreements you can also manage scheduling agreements for the component supplier industry, with their special features that include:
    Working with scheduling agreements with EDI output
    Entering scheduling agreements in a forecast or just-in-time (JIT) delivery schedule
    Using different types of cumulative quantities
    Taking into account the automatic fiscal year change used by the component supplier
    Managing engineering change statuses
    Storing packing proposals
    Creating correction deliveries for the scheduling agreement

    Hi
    Handling Unit Management  
    Purpose
    You can use Handling Unit Management (HUM) to reflect packing-based logistics structures in the SAP System. Using this method, you track the movements of entire handling units and the materials they contain rather than tracking each material individually.
    When you base logistics processes on handling units, goods movements processing is made easier, which in turn optimizes all logistics operations. This simplified processing includes the existing packing function in shipping and warehouse processing in the Warehouse Management system, which is expanded here.
    Features
    In the system, the handling unit (HU) expands on the shipping unit. Handling units can be nested, which means that you can create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like. At the material item level, HUs contain the complete material identification, the quantity, and, in the case of serial numbers, the respective object list. Handling units have unique, scannable identification numbers that can be developed according to standards such as EAN 128 or SSCC.
    Handling units contain all inventory management information of the materials they contain that are maintained in Inventory Management. There are also status messages that you can call up at any time that indicate whether a handling unit is only planned or if the ship-to party has been notified of the arrival of this handling unit, or whether it is in the warehouse or has already been posted to goods issue. The integrated history function also records each business process in the life cycle of each handling unit, meaning that you can track the handling unitu2019s path and development at any time.
    In HU-managed storage locations, all goods movements are executed through the specification of the respective HUs, and Inventory Management is performed through the handling units. If you are not working with HU-managed storage locations, you can use handling units (without stock information) as before in the delivery and in the shipment.
    In HU-managed storage locations, materials can be managed in HUs only. Mixed stock (stock made up of packed and non-packed materials within the same storage location) is not supported. HUs can also be managed in interim storage types. Unpacking a material from an HU means that the stock of the material is posted to a storage location that is not HU-managed.
    If you call up normal material movements in connection with an HU-managed storage location, a delivery is created, rather than a direct material posting, which has been the procedure up to this point.
    Handling units are unique at client level in at least one system. Using an indicator at client level (see Unique Identification of Handling Units), you can control whether you are going to work with the HU functions. Since the handling unit is a physical unit, the central logistics processes are controlled through the input of the handling unit identification. These processes include putaway, picking, and stock transfers, as well as goods receipts and goods issues.
    A handling unitu2019s mobility can be limited if quality checks are active. Changes in the stock category caused by a quality inspection are made using a posting change in the handling unit.
    There is also a report available that you can use to find and display handling units using different selection criteria such as material, packing instruction, or storage location.
    Although the handling unit is basically a unit that remains constant in the system, you can change it by repacking the materials it contains. All the packing functions, such as packing, repacking, and unpacking, are completely supported by the handling unit function. In this way, handling units can be created in production, during goods receipt, or in the packing areas of the warehouse. If you have automatic packing, the handling unit is created from the packing proposals defined in the system (from the packing instructions, for example).

    have you tried to maintain the upselling product through the webUI?
    This would always be my first try because COMMPR01 does not necessarily support all new features.

    Use a method schema that is based on SAP standard schema 000018 or at least contains module CRM_MKTPR_PP_US_GL_SC_READ ("Call the Solution Configurator to determine Global Up-Selling Products").
    Place to check in debugger:

  • Mixed materials in one handling unit

    Dear all;
    I need your help about packing.
    We are going to use packing in sales delivery. We need to pack items automatically using packing instructions and packing proposals, but we need to pack different materials in one handling unit. For example we need to put A, B, C materials in one packing material.
    System can decide the packing material quantity using packed material quantity (we can use the same unit for all materials), weight or volume.
    I'll be pleased to hear any solution about that.
    Thank you in advance.

    Please use search forum -
    FYI
    [1 Material into 2 packing Items;
    Afetr enter in to  Packing screen you can find Material ,Partial qty and Total quantity colomuns under Material to be Packed screen.
    here you enter 10 in Partial qty colomun then click on per part. qty push button now system will ask Should system search for allowed packing material? you select Yes now system will pack the 100 qty in to 10 boxes and each will have 10EA.
    ( system displays the availablae pack material- you can choose this mat - for 3 diff materials)
    hope it helps

  • Packaging query

    How is packaging process(along with Handling Unit) is carried out and is linked to delivery

    Packing for Inbound and Outbound Deliveries
    Use
    Packing delivery items is carried out right in the delivery itself. From the overview screen, choose Edit ® Pack in order to access the packing screen.
    Features
    The following functions are available during packing:
    Packing delivery items in handling units (HUs) and allocating individual items to several handling units.
    In addition to the standard packing of delivery items in handling units, you have the option of automatically packing a specific quantity into several different handling units.
    Multi-level packing
    You can pack handling units in one another. In this case, packing is multi-level. The number of possible packing levels is 999999.
    Unpacking items that were already packed
    Items that have already been packed can be unpacked again. This is also the case for handling units that were packed in multiple levels.
    Responses to exceeding weight or volume
    If the weight or volume limit is reached when packing items in handling units, then only the maximum packable partial quantity is packed. If you have selected another handling unit that has space for packing, the remaining quantities are packed into that handling unit.
    Deleting handling units
    Handling units can be deleted in the delivery. First, the handling unit that is to be deleted is unpacked and then it is removed from any higher-level handling units (if applicable) before it is actually deleted.
    Emptying handling units
    Handling units can be emptied out. Unlike unpacking, where only selected items are removed from the HU, here the handling unit in question is emptied completely.
    Handling unit single entry
    You can enter HUs and HU contents manually by using the single entry function.
    Changing packing quantities
    Changing the packing quantities is possible in various overviews. However, the packing quantities can no longer be changed after goods issue has been posted. In Customizing for packing, you can specify further conditions under which packing is not to be possible.
    Creating delivery items from handling units
    Delivery items can be created from handling units. In this way, it is possible to keep inventory for packaging materials and also to include packaging material in the invoice. To accomplish this, the system must generate delivery items for packaging materials, which must be set for the delivery type in Customizing, and the packaging material type must suggest delivery item generation as a default.
    Displaying the Allowed packaging materials
    You can display a list of all allowed packaging materials for an item to be packed, as long as the material group Packaging material is maintained in the packaging data in the material master for the material concerned.
    Checking for allowed packaging materials
    A check is carried out to make sure that the packaging material is intended for packing a certain material. Customizing for packing is used to control which packaging materials are allowed for packing.
    Packing proposals in sales orders and scheduling agreements
    It is possible to enter packing proposals in sales orders and scheduling agreements. These specifications automatically lead to a packing proposal in the delivery if a special data transfer routine is maintained in Customizing for copying control between the sales documents and the delivery. The packing proposal can be changed in the delivery. It is also possible to pack the delivery according to the packing proposal in the preceding document by using the Use proposal function in delivery processing.
    Packing and decentralized Warehouse Management
    If you are working with  decentralized Warehouse Management, packing takes place in several steps.
    The packing proposal that was determined in the central system is reported to the decentralized system.
    The packing proposal can be copied or changed in the decentralized system, depending on the actual packing process.
    With confirmation of the delivery to the central system, the original packing proposal is deleted and is replaced by the actual packing from the decentralized system.
    Automatic packing and batch split
    For a batch split in the delivery, you can set the item category in Customizing to indicate whether the entire batch quantity or only an individual batch item is to be packed.
    If you enter " " in the Pack batch main item field and no split items are available, then no items are proposed for packing. If the delivery item contains an HU-managed storage location, this delivery item must be packed at the split level. In this case, the indicator (pack batch main item) is overridden.
    If a packing proposal has been defined in the order for materials that are handled in batches, and if automatic batch determination is not carried out when a delivery is created, then this delivery is not automatically packed.
    You must then pack this delivery manually (see also Automatic packing in the delivery).
    Example for packing with batch split, taking the Batch main item indicator into consideration:
    Item
    Material
    Delivery qty.
    Accum.batch qty
    Batch main item

    Creating packing data from subsystems
    It is possible to copy packaging data from subsystems to the delivery.
    Cross-delivery packing in shipment processing
    In shipment processing you can pack in the following ways:
    Delivery items that have not been packed in the delivery and which are not required to be packed in the delivery can be packed.
    Highest-level handling units in the delivery can be packed in shipment handling-units.
    Since the packing depends on the shipment, different packing methods can be used in a follow-up shipment with the same deliveries. If a delivery HU is packed in a shipment HU, the entire contents of the handling unit in the delivery can no longer be changed. No storage units are created for shipment HUs.
    The following diagram shows how handling units are packed in the delivery.
