Plant determination

Hi,
Is there any other way thru which plant can be determined automatically other than the standard plant determination criteria of Customer master,material and Customer masterial Info record.
This is needed bcoz my customer is serviced from more than one plant,material exists in more than one plant and not possible to maintain plant in customer material info record due to some specific reasons.Th plant should get picked up automatically although it is not maintained in any of these records.
Regards
VEE KAY

  • Plant Determination for Third Party Material as Child Item in Sales Order

    Hi All,
    We have an issue with the Plant Determination for Third Party Material as Child Item in a Sales Order.
    Even when a Delivering Plant is maintained for the child item which is a Third Party Material, the plant of the Parent Item is only populated as the Default plant in the Sales Order
    Can someone explain the reason behiind this determination.
    P.S.- For all non -Third PartyChild Items (with non-Third Party Item Catefory & Material Type), the Plant is population correctly as per Delivering plant in Material Master.
    TIA.

    Hi,
    Thanks everyone for the feedback.I agree with Samir Danish.It is a standard functionality of SAP which does not allow free goods for BOM material.
    However, can someone suggest work around to deal with this issue.I mean if any one has been doing any work around for this issue then please let me know.It s becoming critical for me.

  • Automatic Plant determination logic in the order line item level

    Dear all,
    I would like to know if there is a possibility to determine plants automatically, avoiding the standard plant
    determination logic at line item level, to determine plant based on stock availability.
    The process will be to skip the standard plant dtermination logic and drive the process through
    based on ATP on plant level.
    Coming more specific to the requirement the system determines the plant where the stock is available and if the stocks are not
    sufficient the system goes to the next plant automaticaly and confirms the stock quantities, which also could mean that the ATP would run on plant 1 and then plant 2 and plant 3......depending on the availability of stocks with partial confirmations or full.
    If there are existing user exits etc. available also when the configuration not available would welcome it.
    Thanks

    Hello
    On more option I can see is of maintaining preferred plant in Table OIDAP.
    Generally, this table is used for IS-Oil plant determination.
    There you can set up one preferred plant and up to four alternative plants for a combination of
    - sales area
    -country
    -transport zone (of the ship-to party)
    -material number or material group.
    The plant selected depends on the availability of material in the plant/storage location.

  • Plant determination at PO level.

    Hi All,
    When we create a PO for a particular material, the plant should be automatcally populated in the PO.
    How can we configure this and please tell me the configuration path.
    Regards,
    karan

    Hi John,
    If material is maintained ofr diff. plant then you have enter plant manually in PO, In Std SAP provision is not available for plant determination auto.
    if you have only one plant and mat. is maintained for the same then using default setting you can propose the default plant in PO.
    default setting for  plant
    1. go to ME21N
    2. here at right top u will get icon for personal settings, click on it
    3. go to default value tab, then go to PO item tab and here enter the default plant u need and save
    hope it help

  • Plant Determination in Billing

    Hi All,
    May I know what is the logic behind plant determination in Sales / Billing (SD)?
    I have this issue:
    When creating a Returns Order based on an (previously created) Invoice, the plant is selected automatically and correctly.
    However, when generating the Credit Note (for the Returns Order), the plant is automatically redetermined to another plant.
    I do not know why the plant was redetermined.
    FYI, the SAP Release is 31H.
    Appreciate all the replies.
    Thanks.

    The order in which system tries to find a plant for determination in the sales order is as below
    Customer material info record
    Customer Master
    Material master
    Now, as per me plant getting determined in the returns order is the same as that of the invoice to which you are making a reference but when you are creating a fresh credit note, may be the include which is meant for plant determination is being called again and that is causing the plant to be redetermined in the credit note. Please check the master records that I have mentioned above and compare it with the one in the credit note you have created. If they match, the reason could be that when the old invoice was created, there was different plant in the master records which has been changed now.
    Please remember that I have written all this explanation assuming that there are no enhancements written in your system for plant determination. Many of the customers prefer to have their own business logic for platn determination rather than the SAP standard one. I would debug the creation of the credit note to check this.
    Hope this helps!

  • Delivering plant determination in delivery

    hello,
    within our deliveries packing items (palets) are created from packing instructions (POP/POF).
    Usually the delivering plant is determined (as i've now checked in standard from customer master or material master) automatically.
    I've a situation here where the delivering plant is not determined despite the fact that the delivering plant is maintained on customer master and material master.
    certain about this situation is, that the loading group is also not determined.
    any ideas welcome!
    thanks

    Hi,
    As far as my understanding if you maintain delivering plant in customer master and/or material master then same will be determined at ITEM LEVEL under SHIPPING TAB.
    Table & Field - VBAP & WERKS
    Where as the field Deliver.Plant which you can see under SALES tab(initial screen) is used in intercompany sales
    where you manually put your delivering plant.
    Table & Field - RV45A & DWERK
    The plant determination sequence
    Customer info record
    Customer master
    Material master

  • Plant Determination for sales order

    Hello Gurus - I am trying to understand plant determination process that is happening in our system. Here's the scenario:
    Customer sends in an order through EDI creating an IDOC (ORDERS) in our system. The customer sends in a ship to address different from the sold to party's address that the order posts on. Its like a sold to is ordering items to be shipped out to a different address than Sold to's. The order posts in SAP perfectly but the plant that it determines varies with the ship to address. For example a Wisconsin customer orders items to be shipped out to Florida and the system proposes the plant located nearest to the ship to address. Untill now, I was of the view that plant is determined first by the customer material info record, then if its not there, it looks at the customer master and then material master. The items are extended to multiple plants across US. Now what I am not getting is why is it changing the plant thats given on the customer master to a plant located nearest to the ship to address. I tried looking into user exit RV03VFZZ to see any customization, but its not there.
    Can anyone advise on what possibly could be the set up in such a scenario where you have items extended to multiple plants and the plant is determined based on the ship to address??

    Hi Nikhil,
    You are right the delivering plant is first taken from
    CMIR, CM, MM in that order.
    There is also a fourth place after all this ie the user exit which comes into play. In user exits you can redetermine the plant.
    You may need to check this
    MV45AFZB - "USEREXIT_SOURCE_DETERMINATION"
    You can use this user exit to determine which plant will be used for the delivery. In the standard system, the delivering plant is copied from the customer master or the customer-material info record. If you want to use a different rule, then you must enter it in this user exit
    MV45AFZZ - "USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP"
    Use this user exit to assign values to new fields at sales document item level. It is described in the section "Copy customer master fields into the sales document".
    MV45AFZZ -"USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT"
    Use this user exit to fill user-specific statistics update tables.
    in any of these 3 places there could be some custome code. check these areas you may get the answer to your querry.
    reward points if it helps
    regards

  • Plant determination error

    Hello Everyone,
    Iam facing one strange issue, while creating sale order wen i enter the material, the plant is not determining automatically eventhough it is maintained in the material master. Could anyone help on this issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers, Ravi

    Hi Ravi,
        Have you maintained the plant in Customer Master Data in XD01.
    Plant Determination based on 3 factors
    --First the system looks in Customer Material Info Record for Delivery Plant-VD51
    --Second it will check in CMR-XD01
    --Third it will check in Material Master Record-MM01

  • Plant determination user exits

    Hi,
    Can anyone please suggest me a proper user exit that can be used for plant determination in SD (specifically during order creation)?
    Thanks,

    Hi
    The user exit is MV45ATZZ. My project has used this to determine plant at VA01/VA02 level. If you need some specific info, please mail me.

  • Plant Determination by Network

    Hello everyone -
    I am reaching out to you for ideas on how other companies are dealing with plant determination. We assign plants to our orders based on the network (zip code of ship to), the trade channel of the customer, the dominate distribution group of the order and shipping condition. Because of the number of key fields used in our plant determination, we can have many records (plant assignments) per customer. During our implementation, a custom table was created to store this information. As the number of customers grow and we move our network each year, the table is growing at a fast rate. We are also experiencing high rates of errors in the table due to increasing number of entries.
    I am looking to see if anyone else is in the same situation and has a better solution. Is there any standard SAP functionality to store the network of plants by other attributes (such as trade channel and customer shipping location and product mix) to help us assign the right plant to orders?
    thank you! Kris

    Dear Juanbret,
    Is there a standar configuration to determinate plant according the stock?
    NO
    Does Transportation module anything to do about this requirement?
    NO
    your requirement can be solved by the exit provided in the previous thread.
    Write your logic to check for valid stock for the matnr and propose the plant with stock.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Plant determination - HU02

    Hi Gurus,
    When we create a handling unit (non assigned) using transaction HU02, is there a way where we can determine plant automatically (in HU) before the HU gets assigned to a delivery?
    I went in with Plant determination option "A Plant proposed from the packaging material" for the packaging material type which I used to create an HU. But I was not successful.
    Can someone help me out?
    Thanks

    When we create a handling unit (non assigned) using transaction HU02,
    You can create un -assigned handling unit through HU02
    is there a way where we can determine plant automatically (in HU) before the HU gets assigned to a delivery?
    Once you  pack the material with that un assigned handling unit then only Plant will get.
    I went in with Plant determination option "A Plant proposed from the packaging material" for the packaging material type which I used to create an HU. But I was not successful.
    Can someone help me out?
    It seems it is not possible as handling unit is un assigned status with out material.

  • Plant determination at sales order

    Hi,
    I have a material with two plants and two sales organizations:
    How can I customize the determination of the plant when a sales order is created? Do I need to modify a user-exit?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ricard.

    Hello,
    Let us have
    Sales Org: 1000 and 2000
    Plant       : 1100 and 1200 for Sales Org 1000
    Plant       : 2100 and 2200 for Sales Org 2000
    Suppose you have a material defined for two plants and two sales organizations as mentioned below:
    Material          S.Org          Plant
    MAR123         1000           1100
    MAR123         1000           1200
    MAR123         2000           2100
    MAR123         2000           2200
    Now when you create a Sales order, the Material is determined basing on the follwing conditions:
    1. Customer Material Information Record.
    2. Customer Master Record
    3. Material Master Record
    I think so it is not required to use an User Exit for detrmining the plant even though it is maintained for mutiple plants and Sales organizations.

  • Question for Plant determination when Ship-to Party changed

    Hello together,
    SAP determines the delivery Plant as everybody knows in the following way:
    1. Material Customer-Info record of the sold-to
    2. Delivering Plant from the ship-to-party
    3. Material
    In my case I have only set-up the plant to be determined from the ship-to-party (no plant in customer-material-info-record; no in material)
    I have two ship-to parties
    1 with plant A
    2 with plant B
    When I create the order everything works fine and the plant is determined correctly.
    Now I change the order (no subsequent document yet) from ship to part 1 to 2. Still I have on line item level the plant A, even so SAP gives the pop-up: Ship-to party has been changed: Redetermine plant/shipping point ? I click on redetermine, but nothing happens with the plant. (Material is set-up for both plants)
    Userexit userexit_source_determination is not implemented.
    Did anyone made the same experience. Any idea why the plant is not updated when the ship-to is changed? I checked OSS but did not find anything helpful.
    I

    The item was a BOM according to OSS 665080. This is standard behavior because the plant is not ready for input.
