Pipeline material with contract

Hu Guys,
Went through the forum to find some answer about pipeline material I have almost everything.
My compnay wnat to use pipeline material for electricity and Gas.
I have seen on the forum that Pipeline material can (ONLY??) work with info record or souce list.
Can we assign a contract to the source or it has to be a PIR.
Cheers
Julien

Hi
Do check with your MM consultant to fix the item category group "PIPE" defined the used material. Error is explanatory.
I have no idea whether we can use pipeline material with Item category "N". Generally Pipeline material (raw material is pumped from storage tanks to produciton unit. this material could be in the form of liquid or semi liquid. In my past project we have different concept used by PP to measure Qty consumed to produce final product but not used these materials on project network) are being used in process industry to measure the Qty being consumed for producing final product. In that case, I guess, your material never be a Non-stock item. Becaue of this reason system might be throwing error.

PSR

  • Po for pipeline material

    Hi guys,
    Can we create a purchase order or contract for pipeline material?

    Hi,
    Pipeline material is a material that flows directly into the production process from a pipeline (for example, oil), from a pipe (for example, tap water), or from another similar source (for example, electricity). A material from the pipeline is always available; i.e. it can be withdrawn from the pipeline at any time and in any quantity. Consumption of the material is settled with the vendor on a regular basis
    1. Cretae Pipeline material with material type “Pipeline”
    2. Cretae Source list,
    3. Cretae Info record and maintain Price,
    po etc is not genrated u can directly do the good issue
    The Accounting Generated After GI/Settlement are:
    1. Goods Issue
    Consumption A/C: DR
    A/c Payable For Pipeline : CR
    2. Pipeline Settlement
    A/c Payable For Pipeline : DR
    Vendor Account A/C: CR
    Reward points if helpful,

  • Pipeline material in Network order

    We have requirement to user material with material type PIPELINE and backflush these components during confirmation of network.
    I am getting error message 'Material XXXX  is incompatible with item category PIPE ' during assignment of Pipeline materials to Network.  we choosing item category = N (non stock) to assign pipeline materials to the activities.
    Please advise, if some has used pipeline materials in network and backflushed by using CN25.

  • Error in pipeline material creation

    hi,
    we want to create one pipeline material as per our new requirement for showing gas consumption.during material creation with mat type PIPE, it's showing an error:The field Profit Center is defined as a required field; it does not contain
    an entry.
    Procedure
        If the field is the material group or unit of weight, and the field is not ready for input, check whether the material is locked. If it is locked, you cannot extend the Purchasing view or the Sales view. If either of these views needs to be extended, the material must first be unlocked. This can be done only by a user with special authorization.
    thanx,
    sheetal

    Hi
    In your client if Profit center accounting(PCA) is activated ,then you need to maintain the Profit center for the material.
    Option 1: goto OMS2, got details of pipleine material & select the Costing View of the material.
    Now goto MM01 in creation of pipeline material & maintain the profit center in Cotsing 1 View.
    Deactivating the field from mandatory to optional will not serve your purpose as PCA will get affected.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Only for Material if Contract Exist - Create PO Automatic (ME59N)

    Dear Gurus,
    When the inventory planned converts a planned order (which comes from MRP output) to PR,  a validation should take place, whether a contract exist for the Material? If contract exist. Purchase order creation should be automated.
    How to achieve this requirement in Configuration settings, only for materials with contract existing?
    Please advice, we are not maintaining any Source list or Info record.
    In order to achieve the above business needs, how to start and how to complete this.
    Regards
    RS

    Dear gurus,
    I have made a contract and maintain source list in ME32K, then maintain Vendor & Material master as Auto PO.
    Now when i try to create PO through ME59N, the system is generating PO automatically. BUt the PO has a Free indicator ticked, which means PO with ZERO value.
    How to Untick the Free indicator, when a PO is generated in background through ME59N or ME59

  • Upload material and contract data from file in CCM 2.0

    Hi guys,
    This might be a difficult one!
    We have the following situation in a Client:
    We are upgrading a Requisitite catalog (working with BBP 2.0)
    to a CCM 2.0 catalog.
    In Requisite, one can upload material- and contract data from a file (it is standard funcionality) into the database.
    We need to have the same kind of funcionality in CCM 2.0 because our client does not prefer to work with XI (which is the standard SAP solution in these cases).
    How can we accomplish this? maybe with some additional ABAP coding!
    Our client is not working with Vendor Catalogs but I´m trying to see if we can use a dummy vendor catalog to accomplish material upload in CCM2 form a CSV file.
    Anyone had to face this situation before?
    If so, please provide some clues how to do it?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Material Group Contracts

    Hi
    I have created a material group contract, and now when creating a PReq for a material master that belongs to that material group, the auto sourcing does not identify the contract that is in place.
    I have created a contract as a "value contract - WK01 (a copy of WK)"
    the only information that I did put in was the value, material group, purchasing group, purchasing org and description under the short text.  I have left everything else as is.  here all contracts are managed at a purchasing org level and not at plant level.
    Is there anything else that I am missing?
    Thanks
    Vinesh

    Hi
    generally source list is used to assign perefered vendor as here there is no such source list  here so please follow this
    in purchase requisition screen there will be a field assign source click on it now the contract with vendor combination populates select it and assign to ur purchase requisition and save it.
    hope it helps.

  • Issue with Contract Import

    Hello Folks,
    I am facing an issue with Contract Import. The contract import file has been struck in Contract Document importer and from past 4 days the status is showing as Running. Even in trace file, it is showing as "Mon Mar 16 18:05:51 CET 2015          Error during action"
    Is there any way where the import can be stopped or deleted?
    Any help is highly appreciated!!!
    Thanks in Advance!
    Regards,
    Vignesh

    Thanks John and Peter for your support. Unfortunately I cannot provide a screenshot of the issue since of the confidential material and has to re-do the work. I have re-done all the excel correction and re-created the Indesign merge document on a PC laptop. So far 'no' problems. I have a strong suspicion that the cause has been a macro used in excel to convert text or another one that I used to add values to the colum that InDesign found issue. Definetly InDesign should have reported a problem before merging the data. Yes, I am using CS5.5 with the latest update and Excel 2010 on a Mac. Still, I would like to find out what means the letter 'A' in the Data Merge Panel, since this may have directed me to find why the multiple 'AAA...' shown in the first line in the merge panel. Again thanks John and Peter: much appreciated.

  • Error in PIPELINE MATERIAL

    Hi Gurus- when i posted PIPELINE MATERIAL in MIGO with  MVT 201+P the following error coming: "Account Dtermination for entry INT KON---PIP not possible". how to resolve this problem?

    Hello
    This error is because of not maintaining the g/l accounts for that transaction in Automatic account determination (OBYC).
    goto OBYC
    Select the transaction key KON
    Give your chart of account INT
    Then give the valuation modifier(valuation grouping code) and/or valuation class and general modifier as PIP and maintain g/l account against that entry.

  • Pipeline material costing

    Hello
    While creating Std cost estimate,the cost for pipeline material-which though mentioned in info record and in valn variant also mentioned -Price from info record-but system is picking price from materal master-MAP.But for other standard materials-its following proper valuation startegy.
    Does some addnl setting need to done for pipe line materials
    Thx

    Hi SR
    I had similar issue with pipe line materials. Inspite of maintaining the derivation strategy in Val Variant o pick up from Info Record also if was not picking up for Std cost estimate only.
    For actual consumption it is picking up from Info Record.
    I maintained the same price of the Info Record in the price control in the material master and solved the issue.

  • Pipeline Material

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a scenario in which I need expert opinion and process flow of Pipeline Material.
    The scenario is :
    We procured the water from outside and then stored in Tank. The water will be further purified and stored in other tanks. In the process of purification, different charges has been incured i.e. labor hours, machine hours, chemicals etc. That is recorded separately on cost centre as expense.
    The purified water will then be used in production through pipeline. We are not maintaining any inventory of the purified water.
    I have studied that these kind of materials will be handled through Pipeline Materials. The step of using the pipeline material is to create the material master; create info record; maintain price in info record and issue the material.
    What my questions are:
    .) What configurations will be required other than number range and valuation class for pipeline material?
    .) Can we use the pipeline materials in BOM and in Process Order?
    .) How can we issue the material when we issue materials against Process Order?
    .) What will be the proper accounting entries?
    .) If someone provide the detail of Pipeline material?
    Good response will be appreciated.
    Regards

    Dear Imran,
    As per your question, please find my reply as below:
    What configurations will be required other than number range and valuation class for pipeline material?
    1) You have to create material for material type PIPE.
    2) Create Pipeline Info record .
    3) Do the goods issue with mvt 201 P.
    Can we use the pipeline materials in BOM and in Process Order?
    No you can not use  pipeline materials in BOM and in Process Order.
    How can we issue the material when we issue materials against Process Order
    Pipe line materials will be directly issued with mvt 201 P, there is no relation of PO in this.
    What will be the proper accounting entries?
    Accounting entries after GI will be :
    Consumption DR(+)
    Pipeline payables CR(-)
    If someone provide the detail of Pipeline material?
    Hope these information helps you

  • Configuration of pipeline material

    I have following issues.
    Presently we are doing implementation for an Electrical distribution company. here we are receiving HV(high voltage ,33 kv) electricity form different grids.Then we are converting these to 11kv & 400 volts(ht LIne)  through transformers and then we are transmitting these to different customers. How would i implement this scenareo in sap.Electricity is mainly a pipeline material.
    So what will be our raw material & finish goods here ? Pls suggest.

    Hi
    There is no raw material or finished material  but only one material that is PIPE line material. You can not store the material. There is no PO also to buy the material.  You are required to maintain Purchasing Info record with price for the material and have to make automatic settlement  using MRKO . This is is the basic process for any PIPE line material.  You have to elaborate more for further help from members.
    Regards

  • Pipeline Material Error

    Hi,
    One of the raw material used during production is D M Water which is produced in house. have
    When I am trying to issue the pipeline material to production,
    I am getting error " Pipeline material has no fixed vendor"
    Message No - M7164
    Please suggest what I have to do to resolve the issue.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Pavan

    Hi
    First of all you should understand that the material used in the production of the DM water is produced in house.So it not raw material .
    Example
    DM Water (FG)  is manufactured using Some SFG(Water) and this is using some input  material as water(RM).
    Now Input material RM can be treated as Pipeline and you have to make inforecord  with pipeline and you can issue the material and settle liabilty using MRKO.
    you have to create the production order  for SFG ( water ) and  FG water.
