Physical Inventory at Storage location level

hi.,
Environment ECC 6.0
Our suggestion on Physical inventory at the client site was as per SAP
"If the flag for posting block is set then no movements can be posted for that material. Note that the inventory document should be created at a material / plant / storage location level so as to not block that material at other storage locations. If a block is not required then do not flag the Set posting block indicator. It is always prudent to restrict the amount of materials being counted and to clear the count results quickly so business is not interrupted"
CLIENT feedback: " Like wise we asked the client to make the selection by Plant = 1000, SLoc = 100, and WBS =2312-344-332 and checked Posting Blocked.
My understanding was that this selection would block only the 1000/100/WBS location.
Client is having a problem is that people trying to transact in a SLoc other than 100 (200, 300, 400) are experiencing the Blocked warning.
I know I heard that we can inventory a Storage location in SAP and lock it and the rest of the sites could continue without interruption.
Any suggestions on how we can achieve this.

Hi,
Are you setting teh posting block at the time of creation of physical inventory document or by running MI32 later?
If you are running MI32, then ensure that you enter teh storage locations correctly, else the material irrespective of storage locatioons may get blocked.
Hope this helps

Stock report in BW (valuated stock and Storage Location level)

Dear All,
            Regards.We got an situation here,
Case 1: R3 (MB5B) (Both "Storage loc" and "Valuated stock" shows the same Stock Qty)
1).The BW Stock Report shows values the Correct Values for "Receipt Qty" and "Issue Qty" with the Correct "Quantity total Stock" aswell.
Case 2 :   R3 (MB5B) (Stock is different between "Storage Loc" and "Valuated Stock")
1).The BW Stock Report shows the "Quantity Total Stock according to VALUATED STOCK Level(MB5B),but the "Receipt Qty" and "Issue Qty" according to STORAGE LOCATION Level(MB5B) .
We followed the "How to Handle Inventory "Doc with the proper sequence of Loading of Infosources and Compression.The data is sitting fine at the cube level.
It would be great if someone can throw some Light on this issue,on how the Query shows a COMBO of both Valuated stock and Storage Location stock....Held up with this issue for quite sometime..Had a look at the   Oss Note (589024)...........
Manythanks
Arun

HI,
In Inventory we have two quantity fields given to satisfy the requirement.
Valuated stock Qty - 0VALSTCKQTY
Storage Location qty - 0TOTALSTCK
You can make use of them based on your requirement. Hope this helps for you.

vlauation is at plant level (MBEW table) the storage location level does not carry values (table MARD).
You may have to develope your own ZMB5B program and calculate yourself what is not stored in SAP.

Stock valuation down to Storage location level

Dear all,
System setup for stock valuation is till Plant level. And understand that's how data stored in table MBEW and MBEWH until plant level only.
Eventhough that is system standrd, is that possible to get the stock valuation until Storage location level?
For eg: In MB5B, there is opening stock, closing stock and the material movement posting. I need to get opening and closing stock for each storage location.
Could you please comment if there are tables store these data? Kindly comment.

Hi Afshad Irani,
Thanks for your reply. Understand from the previous post that stock valuation for storage location can be done via table MARDH or report MC.9, but this tools are excess base on period/month basis.
My case, i need to report storage location stock for both (1)last month 06.2010 and (2)yesterday's stock 06.07.2010. So i can use MARDH table to report (1)last month stock for each storage location. While for (2) yesterday stock, table MARDH isn't help.
Could you please advice further?

MCHB,MARD - Stock available at plant level and storage location level

Hi ,
How to determine how much stock available at Storage location level and Plant level. (Lot is not maintained).
In MCHB-Stock at lot level is shown.
In MARD-Stock at Storage Location level is shown lncluding
the stock maintaned at the lot level.
If i want to know the stock which is not maintained in Lot, i.e, Stocks directly maintained at Storage location / Plant.
Do I need to subtract the MCHB Value from MARD Value ?
Is there any other way available to find the stocks which is not maintained at lot level.
Regards
Prasath

Hi prashant,
What do u mean by stock maintained at SL level without batch level. Do u mean that some materials are subjected to batch management and some or not?
If that is the case, for all batch managed materials, u can see the stock at batch level and also same is summed up at SL level. But still what ever u are getting from MARD table isstock at SL level only.
If u have activated batch management for any material, it will always be shown at lot level also.
hope this clarfifies query

Storage Location level ATP check with CRM

Hi:
I am on an implemenation where the integration is between CRM, EWM and GATP. So, consider the situation where the sales order check is done through CRM and a call to GATP is made.
Some background on supply
EWM would like to receive the goods into storage location ROD (Received On Dock) and then do a movement type to move it to storage location AFS (Available For Sale). The sales orders should consider only the supply from storage location AFS and not ROD.
First question is, is it possible to do a storage location level determination in CRM? I don't think so but wanted to confirm. The reason is because even a plant determination is not possible in CRM when you integrate with GATP (the plant is determined through Rules).
Now, suppose that we have determined the storage location called AFS (in gATP through enhancement) and will do an ATP only at that level in GATP. Suppose that the first plant that will be checked is Plant A and then based on the location determination procedure, the next plant that will be checked is Plant B. When the system checks supply at Plant B, then the question is this: will it still check only at storage location AFS in Plant B or will it check at the plant level? The requirement will be to check at the same storage location level (which means that whatever process we used to determine the storage location at Plant A has to be followed for Plant B also).
One option that can be considered is to check at the Storage Location MRP Area level (there seems to be better support for RBA and Storage Location MRP Area than just storage location). See SAP Note 412314. But this is also complicated.
Another option is to not check at the storage location level but represent the various stocks with stock types (stock type ROD and stock type AFS) and only the stock type AFS will be used in the list of ATP categories.
Please share any experience that you may have in this.
Thanks,

Hi Satish,
In my project also we had this requirement to determine the correct Storage location after plant has been determined by using rules.
What we did is as follows:
- We created a Z table which had entries for all plants and preferred storage locations for those plant (only one entry per plant) in your case it will be like:
Plant A - AFC
Plant B - AFC
Plant C - AFC
- We used a ATP user exit in APO to get the storage location of source plant ( which was determined in APO via rules) from the Z table.
I hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Anupam

Different Batch Classification at storage location level

Dear guru ,
I have tested that i can insert different values of batch classification for the same material and the
same batch number but in different plants.
In MSC1N/MSC2N transaction the system allow a insertion at storage location level.
Itu2019s possible to insert different values of batch classification for the same material , same batch number and the same plant but in different storage locations ?
Thanks.

hi,
check in OMCT under which batch level the current system is, if the level is set to be material level or client level, if you make a change to the batch classificaiton, it will reflect in all the plants across the clients.
Batch classification is not maintained at the storage location level.

Material deletion flag at storage location level is not working

I have a material that is created in some plants and also in some storage locations within each plant. If I mark the deletion flag at plant level I am not able to create a PO -> Me051 error message appears. Whereas if I mark the deletion flag at storage location level nothing appens. I am able to create a PO and also to create to goods receipt. Is there any customization that I should do in order to get the error message?
Thanks in advance.

storage location level deletion flag is not checked at order creation.
it is assumed that you can change the storage location when you do the receipt.
MRP run is at plant level, so the requirement is valid even the storage location view is flagged for deletion.

Re: ATP check at storage location level.

Hi All,
NEED urgent help.
I want to know if it is posiible to have ATP check at storage location level only.
I do not want this check to happen at plant level.
Please reply.
Thanks and regards,
Nilesh

Hi Shankar,
Storage location is defaulted in sales order.
Can you tell me if there is any user exit for ATP wherein I can carry out the ATP at storage location level and not at plant level.
Thanks and regards,
Nilesh

Re: ATP check at storage location level in sales order.

Hi ,
I have a requirement wherein storage location is determined in my sales order, the ATP check is done at plant level as well as storage location level , and the smaller of the two quantities is taken as the result of the ATP check.
My requirement is that the ATP check should only be performed at storage location level .
Please suggest if there is any standard setting available in SAP.
iF NO , PLEASE SUGGEST SUITABLE USER EXIT, WHERE I can add my requirement.
Regards,
Nilesh

Hi Nilesh,
in SAP standard the system is always checking on plant level first and then on the storage location level, there is no possibility to change this behaviour.
I'm also not sure if the process is correct, because if you have also requirements on plant level only then you would create negative ATP if you confirm on storage location level even though there is no ATP on plant level.
I'm also not aware of a user-exit that would suite your requirement, additionally according to the IMG documentation the user-exits in the availability check area should only be carried out in agreement with SAP.

Markus

Profit centre at storage location level

Hi Experts,
Can we define a profit centre @ storage location level?
My scenario :
The document splitting of FI is activated for the document type of FI and also the profit centre is mandatory entry for any accounting document that will be created so when I am trying to post a MIGO I encounter the error
"Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled"
We have a option of maintaining a profit centre in plant data/storage location but i will be updated in the profit centre field of Costing1 view . But we does not want to upadate in costing view of material master data.
Basically We want the system to determine profit centre based on storage location in Goods reciept transaction .
Helpful Sugestions on this would be helpful & rewarded max .
points.

Hi Raju ,
Thanx for the reply.I am Basavarajs Collougues.
Our Enterprise Structure of our Client is as follows
One company code is assigned to one plant and we have treated all the branches across India as Storage locations.Each Branch (Storage Location- MM) is configured as Profit centres in FICO.The goods are procured for a storage location.
By using the functionality of document splitting, the profit center field is made mandatory for all the accounting documents generated in the system. Now we are trying to post a goods receipt against a Purchase Order, the system is giving error "Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled"
The option is there to maintain a profit center at the plant level.But we have several storage locations under the plant and each storage location has to be linked with the particular profit center. So that, while doing goods receipt the system should determine profit centre based on the storage location in purchase orders.
Please suggest on this.

SVU123
