Plant issue during cross company sales orders creation

Hi experts,
When creating sales orders, the system pops up "Maintain plant XX for the sales area Message no. V1762". I have gone through nearly all the relevant thread in the forum but failed to solve it.
Moreover, the plant is just assigned to one of two company codes (the company who delivers goods). In OVX6, the plant has been assigned to two sales organizations properly as well as distribution channels. Those two sales organizations belong to two company codes separately.
Should I delete the plant assignment, and re-assign it to the company who receives customers' orders? Pls help to solve. Thx.

Hi Raja, Lakshmipathi,
After further learning & testing, I still fail to solve it. Taken Raja's example, would you pls pinpoint errors in my settings below? Many many thanks.
1. Internal customer XYZ
1.1 create it under company code ABCD / sales organization ABCD / distribution channel AB / division CD / delivery plant ABCD
(set "internal company account receivables" as reconciliation account)
1.2 extend it to sales organization 1234 / distribution channel 12 / division 34
(not set reconciliation account, not set delivery plant)
1.3 assign it to sales organization 1234
2. "Assign Organizational Units to the Plants" in SPRO
plant ABCD - sales organization ABCD - distribution channel AB
3. "Assign company code to company" in SPRO
company code ABCD - company ABCD
company code 1234 - company 1234
4. "Assign plant to company code" in SPRO
plant ABCD - company code ABCD
5. "Assign sales organization - distribution channel - plant" in SPRO
sales organiztion ABCD - distribution channel AB - plant ABCD
fail to assign plant ABCD to sales organization 1234 due to error messages:
"The sales org. is part of company code 11234, plant ABCD is part of comp.code ABCD"
"Organizational data for inter-company billing missing in plant ABCD"

Questions on Inter-company and Cross-company sales ordering process..

Hi,
I understood the delivery plant and the sales org. is not in the same company code might be the process, but i want to know some details especially in SAP system how it is realized and processed, hope could kindly help me on below questions!! thanks!!
1)what is the difference between inter-company sales and Cross-company sales??
2)What is the general document flow and config. when in below 2 cases:
Suppose the 2 company code under same sap client system, then what kinds of company code,plant config within the system for inter-compan and cross-company, and finally what kind of document flow will it be in the system.
Suppose the 2 company code is under diff sap system, then what kind of doc flow in each sap system for inter-company and cross-company sales process???
Thank you very much!!!!

Hi,
Basically there are totally Three types of scenarios
1. Intra Compnay Stock Transport Order
In this type of scenario, the stock is transfered between Two Plants which are under the same Compnay Code. The document type used here is UB. Here in this scenario the owner ship on the stock is not changed thats way there will not be any Invoice. The process as follows
a. Create Purchase Order with document type UB - ME21N
b. Create Replenishment Delivery with Document type NL - VL10B
c. Picking and PGI - VL02N
Now stock will be shown in Transit, you can check this using T.Code MB5T.
d. Do MIGO to receive the stock into ordering plant.
2. Inter Compnay Stock Transport Order
This is called as Cross Compnay STO. Here the stock is sent from one plant to another plant which are in two different Compnay codes. That means the Ownership on the stock is changed in this scenario, that way there will be Intercompnay Invoice IV is reaised. Here the stock is just moved to one plant to another plant but not to any customer.
The Process is as follows
a. Create a PO using type NB - ME21N
b. Create a Cross Compnay Replenishment delivery using type NLCC - VL10B
c. Picking and PGI in VL02N
d. Inter Compnay Invoice IV is raised by Supplying Compnay code to the Ordering Compnay Code - VF01
for this a customer created in Supplying Compnay who represents the Ordering Compnay and the invoice is raised against to that customer.
e. MIGO to receive the stock in Ordering Plant
f. MIRO to do invoice verification and do Vendor account update. This also can be done by EDI triggering, to update the Vendor Account. That means with this step, ordering compnay will update into its vendor account that he has to give certain amount to the compnay who supplied the stock.
3. Inter Compnay Customer Sales
This is similer to the 2 process, but here instead of sending to Plant we will send the stock directly to Customer of other compnay code.
The process is as follows
a. Customer raises normal sales order in another compnay code of type OR - VA01
b. But if the plant of that compnay does not have stock, then in the order the plant is changed to other compnay code plant.
c. Delivery is created in supplying Compnay against this Order - VL01
d. Picking and PGI is done - VL02N
e. But the stock is sent direclty to customer from supplying plant.
f. Ordering compnay will raise normal invoice F2 to the customer
g. Supplying Compnay will raise Intercompnay invoice IV to the Ordering Compnay.
But for all these process there are some configurations can be done, like
the material should be extended to both the plants
a customer is created in supplying plant who represents the ordering plant so that IV can be generated to that customer.
Supplying Plants should be linked to ordering Sales Org and Distribution channel. etc.
Hope this is clear.
Thanks

Cross Company Sales Automatic Vendor Invoice Not Created

Hi,
I have an issue in Cross company Sales Scenario (Inter company Sales),
During the Intercompany Invoice we can trigger output RD04 to create Automatic Vendor Invoice in the Ordering Company.

However when I check the Vendor Invoice in the Ordering Company T.Code FBL1N, system gives me message that no items found for the Vendor.

Hi Daniel,
Both the company codes should be assigned to the same company.
Clearing accounts must be defined in every company code before a cross-company code transaction may be carried out. The clearing accounts may be G/L accounts, customer, or vendor accounts.
In the configuration you must assign clearing accounts to every possible combination of two company codes to allow cross-company code postings between these combinations
To reduce the number of clearing accounts, you can use just one company code as the clearing company code. In this case, you only have to assign clearing accounts to every combination of the clearing company code
In T-code OBYA
For ex: company code 1000 clearing account 12345 is same for Debit and credit
Company code 2000 Clearing account 67890 is same for debit and credit
Posting keys must be assigned to the clearing accounts to identify their account
types.
Hope this helps you to solve your probelm.

Cross company sales with multiple operating concern

Hi all,
I'm going to implement cross company sales in a system that is already live.
I think that it really fit to the new requirement of the client , that want to allow the possibility of creating a sales order from sales organization A1 of company A, for the plant of company B (related to sales organization B1).
however the company A and B are also assigned to different controlling area and different operating concern.
It would be possible to have the cross company sales order in both operating concern? Or in which one I will have the sales order?
Many thanks.
Paolo

Hi
Inter Co sale will happen whether or not your comp code is assigned to separate Op concern or same
The sales order must be created by the selling entity
I would personally prefer Inter Co STO process if the material codes are same across the 2 companies involved here.. This STO can be raised by the Co who is receiving Sales order from the End Customer

here how to do manual invoice verification for intercompany billing for cocd 7000.
what is ref filed in miro.
regards
Ramachandra

Hi
    Yes it is possible.For this you have to maintain company code clearing accounts in OBYA( i.e. say for example if you have two company codes, company code A & Company code B.you maintain clearing accounts for this two company codes.
go to obya
enter your company codes and select.
You enter a debit posting key and account debit for company code 1
similarly you enter a credit posting key and account credit for company code 1
repeat the same for the company code 2 and save it.
After that you procure for company code A and do GR for the same.
Now the system will allow you to post the Invoice.
Thanks & Regards

Issues on cross-company stock transfer triggered by sales order

Hi, friends:
As our business process required, we need to make the cross-company sale between to plants under two company codes.
The business process required is different from standard inter-company billing in SAP SD module. Our business process is as follows:
sales order --> PR --> PO --> cross-company stock transfer --> delivery to customer --> billing.
However, there is a difficulty in this process of make-to-stock production method. When we use schedule line item in SO to trigger the PO, there is a must to assign "account assignment category" in PO. This indicator is unchangable in PO by manual. When post goods recepit against the PO, there is no stock quantity udpate in un-restricted stock. By the way, I selected "C" in the "account assignment category" of schedule line item cofiguration.
Checked the MM documents, I found it seemed like only two results of PGR against PO with account assignment category. One result of PGR is directly consumpted by receiptent or unloading point. The other result of PGR is updating sepecial stock. For example, I've fullfilled the process for make-to-order production method, the stocks are specified for sales order.
In our requiremnt, we have to post to normal un-restricted stock for the following ATP in sales order.
Could any friend give some suggestion on this issue?
Thanks!
Justin

Hi, Venkadesh:
I've checked the Purchasing view and quantity/value update in both plants of different company codes. That's correctly configured.
In the business process, the quantity in normal un-restricted stock updating still doesn't work.
Do you mean that as follows: if select any indicator in "account assignment category", we have to use UNBW or NLAG material type in the purchase order?
I have successfully fullfilled the process in make-to-order sales order, with material type FERT and account assignment category "E". The account assignmnet categroy is obligatory in sales order schedlue line item configuration, which is to trigger PO by SO. The configuration path is as below:
IMG>Sales and Distribution>Sales>Sales Documents>Schedule Lines-->Define Schedule Line Categories
If possible, would make a test in your system to check how to fullfill the process with make-to-stock sales order, FERT material?
Thanks!

Update error in RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_ADD during Sales order creation

I get an Update/ ABAP runtime error during Sales order creation. The error occurs during processing of the update module -RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_ADD.
This error does not occuring always, as I am sometimes able to create a Sales order without getting update error. I am getting the error of all types of Sales orders and even contracts.
Am I missing any configuration parameters?
Thanks,
Chitra

Yes , I can see the error in ST22.
While exceuting VA01 (Oder type OR, Entering Sold-to-party, Purchase order NO, Material, Qty, Plant),
- I get run-time error "Run-time error "GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED" occurred".
    Analysis of error shows:
     Update terminated in "Update module: RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_ADD"
      Fails in the Read table in one of the form
        Termination occurred in the ABAP program "SAPLV45U" - in "VBAP_BEARBEITEN"
The main program was "RSM13000 ". In the source code you have the termination point in
line 147 (READ TABLE FYVBAP WITH KEY VBAP_KEY.)
of the (Include) program "LV45UF0V".
The ABAP's say the functional module is trying to do an 'UPDATE' instead of 'INSERT" in the internal table FYVBAP.

How to fetch post goods issue date and sales order creation date

Hi All,
How to find out the difference between SD Sales Order Item Creation Date and final Post goods issue Date. I would like to know how to fetch those dates and what is the relationship between the tables from which i will get the dates.
Please let me know the solution .
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Sales order creation date is when u raise a sales order in favor of the customer using VA01.......using ATP logic system purposes the material availability date....
after saving ur sales order...when u raise the Delivery using VL01n w.r.t to OR...than u have to perform picking ....In the picking Tab...specify the amount to be picked than press Post Good Issue....means the goods left the company premises ..
You can the fetch the values using tables- Use T code SE12 or SE16
Vbak-----order header
Vbap-----order item
Vbek-----order schedule line
Likp-----Delivery header
Lips----Delivery item

User Exit during Sales Order Creation - New Line Item needed

I have a situation during the process of sales order creation. If a Material in a line item has say 27 EA and the Base Unit is EA. But the Sales Unit is CSE. Then whenever the user enters 27 EA and presses enter he should get two line items.
The first line item needs to convert to maximum number of CSE posible and the rest will be the second line item with the remaining EA. The order isn't important but that is what is needed. Question is how do I approach this problem and code my user exit accordingly and where do I code it.
I was looking at SAPMV45A and saw the program MV45AIZZ which is meant as a user exit for any PAI event handling. If anybody has encountered this kind of requirement can you please share your view on this.
I will definitely reward points for useful answers.
Clark

Hello Mahendra
The requirement is as follows :
PART 1:
Sales Order Enter:
1.     When a line item is entered on a sales order (VA01 or VA02), at enter, check the sales unit of measure (VBAP-VRKME).
     Do not check line items where item category (VBAP-PSTYV) = TANN, TAPS or ZTAP. TANN are free goods that should not be considered for consolidation. TAPS & ZTAP are lower level materials as a result of product selection. They will be attached to a higher-level material with an item category of TAX, which is relevant for consolidation.
     Do not check items where VRKME <> EA
2.     If VRKME = EA, go to MARM for MATNR.
3.     Go to record where alternate unit of measure (MEINH) = CSE, get the value from the numerator field (UMREZ).
4.     Divide the order quantity (VBEP-WMENG) by UMREZ.
5.     If the result is greater than 1.0, the customer has ordered more than one case and a new line item needs to be added to the sales order for the case quantity.
6.     Add a new line to VBAP for the same material with the case quantity. If not a whole value, the remainder of eaches (bottles) should update the qty on the first item on VBAP.
     Part 1 is relevant for order types ZCA, ZOR, ZSO, RE, ZSM
PART 2:
Batch Job to run prior to the Delivery Due List:
1.     Read VBUK for Delivery Status (LFSTK) = A (delivery not processed). Get all of the document numbers (VBELN).
2.     Go to VBEP for those document numbers to get the goods issue date for the order. There will be many records in VBEP for the same sales order. Look at all orders with a goods issue date (WADAT) of next day.
3.     Go to VBAK for those document numbers to see if there are multiple sales orders for the same Sold To party (KUNNR).
4.     For customers who have more than one order in VBAK, search all line items (for all orders). If there are no duplicate materials across sales orders, do nothing.
     Do not check line items where item category (VBAP-PSTYV) = TANN, TAPS or ZTAP. TANN are free goods that should not be considered for consolidation. TAPS & ZTAP are lower level materials as a result of product selection. They will be attached to a higher-level material with an item category of TAX, which is relevant for consolidation.
     Do not check line items where reason for rejection (VBAP-ABGRU) is not blank
5.     If there are duplicate materials, go through the same logic as in part 1. If the quantity across the sales orders adds up to greater than one case, add the appropriate quantity to a new line item on the first sales order.   If there is a remainder qty, update the line item on the first sales order with this qty. In this case, the quantities on the second sales order needs to be closed out with a reason for rejection code of 50, Line Item Consolidation. If there is no remainder, update the qty on this item directly.
     Part 2 is relevant for order types ZOR, ZCA, ZSM
     This batch job will have to be run manually for Day Pick orders. The end of this program should automatically kick off the delivery due list for Day Pick orders, shipping condition 02.
Business Justification:
The business requires that like order line items be consolidated to one line item prior to the order going to the warehouse for picking. This will aid in picking at the warehouse as well as result in the customer invoice not reflecting more than one line item for the same material. In the case where the customer has truly ordered more than a case, i.e;, 1 case, 2 bottles, the documents in SAP will still reflect 2 lines.

Cross-company sales delivered by non-sap production plant.

Dear guru's,
We are looking for the best solution for a cross-company sales scenario. The difference to the normal solution is that the delivering plant is not supported (yet) by our SAP system but is still on it's own platform. So customer order intake in the sales organization is done in SAP for company code A. This is delivered from another country directly to the end customer but this delivering plant is not on our SAP system. Please advise on the best configuration for this situation.

As per SAP standard you can handle this situation by [Third Party Sales|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/e6/4a78e39e0311d189b70000e829fbbd/content.htm].
Third party order processing is as follows:
Assume three companies X, Y and Z
X u2013 The company,
y u2013 The customer
Z u2013 Vendor
When ever X gets a PO from Y to supply some goods, X has an option of either manufacturing those goods or procuring those goods.
If he is procuring the goods, there are two methods that are generally followed:
One method is
After receiving the PO from Y, X creates a sales order against Y.
Now at the same time he also creates a PO to a vendor Z to produce the goods
Z produces the goods and supplies to X
X receives the goods from Z
Then X delivers the same goods to Y.
After that X invoices Y and Z invoices X.
Note : Here there is no direct/ Indirect relation between Z and Y.
This process is known as Trading Process. and the Material here is created with Material type HAWA.
Another method is
is a Third party order processing method:
Here the glaring difference is that instead of Z supplying the material to X and X in turn supplying the same material to Y.
X authorizes Z to supply the material to Y on his behalf and notify him once the delivery is complete.
Now Z supplies the material to Y and acknowledges the same to X.
Z will send a copy of delivery acknowledgment and invoice to X.
After receiving the delivery confirmation and invoice from Z, X has to verify the invoice and this process is known as invoice verification and is done in SAP through Tcode MIRO.
The next step for X is to create an invoice and submit to Y
Only after the invoice verification document is posted then only X can create an invoice for Y.
This is the business flow that is followed for third party order configuration.
Following are few more links which can assist you in understanding Third Party Sales:-

100% advance payment during sales order creation

Dear Experts,
One of our international client is having one requirement for collecting the 100% advance payment from customer during sales order creation itself. Our customer is in Germany.
For high risk customers they want to collect the advance payment for 100%. And if this 100% advance payment was not paid by customer then, sales order should not be processed.
And during regular sales invoice creation the same down payment also needs to be displayed in the invoice as advance payment.
Is it possible to setup this process using milestone billing.?? .or some other process is available to setup this process.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Warm Regards,
Velmurugan

Hi
Try with this with Credit management.Put High Risk with Error message.
When ever you will Create Sales Order it will Block due to Credit Chech.For this scenario Enter the Parking Vale at F-66.
Then make a entry for Customer-CR to BANK-DR.
This may solve ur requirement.

IDOC INPUT INVOIC FI Issue (Cross Company Sales)

Hello All,
As you know this IDOC posts the FI document for the cross company sales in the receiving company code.
I have found some business issues that I need advice for:-
1. If part of the sale has "free good" then SAP is grabbing the "cost price VPRS" from the billing document.
2. No material numbr from the SD billing document is added into the FI item. When I display the FI document the material is in the screen control. I guess I may need to use a userexit that allows me to add it manually in the field or as a text item.
3. CO-PA posting doesn't exist for the FI document as SAP advises that the GL account in OBCB is not a cost element. If I added the GL as a cost element then I would need to use a substitution or userexit ... to then change profit centre, etc. Note, if costs are not going into CO-PA then this will show incorrect sales profit figures, as cross company invoice is flowing into CO-PA.
4. Italy "free goods" have VAT charged, so I'm thinking that the IDOC cannot be used for Italy as mentioned in (1) above.
Looking for some handy advice. Note I have seen IDOC questions here and in SD, so not too sure this is the best place.
Regards and Thanks

How the availiblity check is carried out during the sales order creation

Hi All,
I have maintained planned delivery time, GRProcesing time and replenishment lead time in days in material master. I am not understand ing how the system is calculating the availability date of the material during sales order creation.
Please do needful regarding this.
Regards
Phani

Hi,
Using the Scheduling data from Delivery & Transportation Scheduling, the system does the backward calculation from the Requested Delivery Date. This is used to arrive at Material Availability Date.
On the Material Availability Date, system checks the Available Qty, as seen in CO09 in column ***. ATP Qty. If the Available Qty is > than Required Qty, Requested Delivery Date is confirmed. Otherwise,
System moves into the future till it finds the required Available Qty. The new date is then the new Material Availability Date.
On getting the confirmed Material Availability Date, system does the Forward Scheduling to arrive at a Confirmed Delivery date.

How to Overrride ATP values during sales order creation

Hi all,
How i override ATP values during sales order creation.
The scenario is that we need to migrate open orders from an existing legacy system to SAP.
While migrating these orders, we need to make sure that dates on the schdule lines are same as they are in the old system. Hence we need to override ATP.
Any suggestion welcome..

Hi Kantur Shekar madhuri,
Would you confirm the whether in your schedule line category is activated for "Product Allocation" or not.
if not please activate and re run your scenario.
