Prepack vs Display in SAP retail

Hi guys,
I am still struggling to understand the difference between prepack and Display in SAP retail.
Anyone has a good understanding of that?
Cheers
Julien

Hi
Prepack:
Variant from different generic articles belongs to same merchandise category grouped together as component and created with article category 11.
Prepacks are used in Fashion retail where merchant wants to order specific variants (color and size) rather than ordering all the variants from generic articles.
Vendor ship prepack articles and received in DC as prepack articles whereas it will be sold at component level in Store.
Display 
Variant from different generic articles belongs to different merchandise category grouped together as component and created with article category 12.
Vendor ship as display articles, stocks are maintained at DC as display articles but sold in store at component level.
Display articles are used in FMCG sectors mostly and to some extend it is used in Fashion as well. These articles generally kept at billing counters and customer will pick the components as they like it.
Best Regards

  • What is the significance of using Prepack or Display Articles

    What means 'significanc'e here? difference between prepack or display article? or the business use when to go for a structured artice at all?
    [(1) The difference between prepack or display articles are described in the online documentation SAP Retail - Master Data - Article Master Data - Articles: Article Categories - Articles: structured articles - Articles: Displays / Articles: Prepacks|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/en/12/084828470311d1894a0000e8323352/content.htm]
    ([2) The business use is described in the online documentation at SAP Retail - Merchandise Logistics - Goods Receipt - Goods Receipt: Special Article Categories or SAP Retail - Merchandise Logistics - Inventory Management: Special Article Types.|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/en/12/085efd470311d1894a0000e8323352/content.htm]
    In a nutshell, structured articles allow you to handle a group of articles in certain logistics processes as one single article and to go for the components only at the moment you actually need it.
    @This information was provided by Bernhard B.

    but is the performance faster than writing a quick solution that is just going to serve my needs.
    In my case I'll need a very simple text log file. that i can examine. and print out some minimimal information to the dos window.
    Which performance would you say is fastest -- (it's for a product that needs to be fast )

  • How can I generate IDOC(WPUUMS) from XML file in POSDM or in SAP Retail

    Hallo Retail expert,
                                I have following scenario,
    I have Retail Store who send me their daily sales report through Wincor Nixdorf Point of sale. There i am using standard POSLOG2 to SEEBURGER(its a middleware which act as Converter) xml format and then i post that data first in POSDM and then with BAPI i transfer or book that data to SAP Retail.
    Above is the one scenario which is working.
    This is the Second scenario.......
    I have some external Retail store, they dont have Wincor Nixdorf POS, so they send me their Sales Report through SEEBURGER(its a middle Hardware which act as Converter) and SEEBURGER Convert that Sales data to XML format. My question is....
    How can i upload or Convert a XML File into IDOC (WPUUMS)in SAP or in POSDM?
    any new suggestion are welcome.
    Thank you all in advance.
    regards,
    Niel

    Hi,
    1. To get the required XML Schema, use transaction code WE60 to go to the IDoc documentation -> enter the IDoc type you want to use (WPUUMS01). Flag control and data record. Then display the XSD by choosing Documentation -> XML Schema from the menue bar. Now you can donwload the XSD for usage in Seeburger.
    2. Create your mapping from the POS format into the IDoc XML format in Seeburger.
    3. Create an XML File Port in ERP or POS DM using transaction code WE21.
    3. To inbound the XML file from Seeburger into POS DM or SAP Retail Seeburger should trigger the function module EDI_DATA_INCOMING. Parameters for this FM are the Pathname to the XML file and the Portname you just created. Based on the port name the FM can derive the port type xml and the data will be handled as XML data.

  • Re-use of article numbers in SAP Retail - consequences for SAP BI ?

    Hello experts,
    I´ve got another task concerning SAP BI 7.0 and Retail ECC 6.00. We are confronted with the following situation: The InfoObject 0MATERIAL is used for SAP Retail Article. 0MATERIAL has been extended with some specific attributes, but beside from this it´s still a standard Business Content object (lenght 18 characters etc.). We are loading data on a daily basis.
    Now for the future there´s the intention to re-use already existing article numbers for different articles (!). E.g. article 012345678910111213 is now a bath towel, but somewhere in the future it changes into a computer or something else.
    From my understanding, we cannot delete the "old" articles in SAP BI as long as they are used in any transactional data. We also cannot change the article text, because 0MATERIAL is not time-dependent. I know that we can make the texts time-dependent (valid from - valid to), but in this case the users have to know when the last change of every specific article has taken place - and this can´t be guaranteed. Beside from this, I can´t see a solution for the reporting on articles because they cannot be compared.
    So - has anybody of you been confrontated with a similar situation and has been solved this problem ?
    Thank you very much.
    Regards,
    Alexander

  • Different aspect to extract data from SAP retail.

    Hi Gurus,
          I will working on SAP retail system , including SAP retail/POSDM,  please tell me how to extract data from those systems, is it different from  the way to extract data from SAP ECC , eg SD/FICO etc?
    Many Thanks,

    Hello ,
    Retail will use Inventory Data Sources, Extraction is same as that of inventory or LO. There are few DS in Retail those use FM, so for those DS it will behave like FI DS.

  • SAP Retail Store - Store Order - Assortment List

    G'day,
    In the SAP Retail Store (SRS) when selecting the "Store Order" "Assortment List" option I've got a request to add columns to the assortment list ( I've done this via Badi IF_EX_WSAO_DISP_EXPAND ).
    The challenge now is to make fields within the added columns available for user input. (Currently the fields is only displayed).
    Example: I've added columns X, Y and Z in the assortment list.
    There are twenty lines in the assortment list and for each line the field in column Y must except input from the user. When the Post Order button is pushed a ME22 transaction must be submitted for each item in the assortment list.
    I've copied the internet service for WSTA to ZWSTA but don't have sufficient HTML knowledge to change the HTML page to achieve the above.
    Can you please help with a solution.
    Thanks, points will be awarded.

    Hi Mohan,
    Thanks for the useful link you shared.
    But I am looking for specific configuration and master data set up required for store order creation scenario where " Warehouse stock is created if stock exists else third party order is created"
    This option is activated in POS interface inbound profile for store order control by selecting document categorydefault as "A - Warehouse order if stock exists, otherwise third-party order"
    Just wanted to understand how this option works by requiring what kind of configuration and master data settings.
    Any further suggestions will be really helpful.

  • Sale set,prepack and display

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me about the difference between display,sale set and prepack in IS retail.
    would appreciate if some practical examples are given

    Hi,
    Article comprising several components structured as a bill of material / article called as Structured Articles, namely; Sets, Prepacks and Display.
    Sets: Sets are usually handled in one of the following ways:
    (a) As sales sets: The components are packaged together and can often also be sold individually.
    Example: Toothpast with Tooth Brush
    (b) As price sets: Price sets are formed only by the assignment of a joint sales price. This price is normally lower than the total sales price of each of the components which can always also be sold individually. The components are not packaged together.
    Example: Hamper / Three pieces of Soaps / Biscut Packet
    Display:Group of single articles or variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. The components are grouped together by the manufacturer or vendor.
    In the wholesale trade, displays are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at display level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store.
    Example: Candy bars and Pantyhose displays
    Prepacks: Group of variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. Unlike a display, the components must belong to the same merchandise category as the prepack itself. They can be grouped together by the retailer as well as by the manufacturer or vendor.
    In the wholesale trade, prepacks are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at prepack level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store
    Example: Shoe Prepack

  • Handling of Hazardous Articles in SAP Retail

    Hi SAP Retail Experts
    Would like to know the porcess in SAP to configure the hazardous goods management in Article master whereby we can accomodate the dangerous goods data from and external system into Article Master.

    Dear Pratim
    I don't catch your question. Check e.g. SAP Environment, Health, and Safety Management (SAP EHS Management)
    1.) the term "Dangerous Goods" and Hazard substance" is not the same
    2.) In EHS classic you can get external data for DG use using ALE; same is true for hazardous substance master
    I have no experience with SAP Retail. But according to SAP help: This is a SAP ECC/ERP system in a "special"  mode (you have activated an "industry specific" function). So you need to prepare EHS customizing

  • IDOC message type for "Site" in SAP Retail module?

    Hi All,
    We have the need to transfer master data (through master data change pointers) of Retail Sites within the SAP Retail module (transaction:  WB01, WB02).  Does anyone know if there's an IDOC message/type already associated with this?  Thanks in advance for your help!
    Cheers,
    Matt

    Hi,
    please read SAP notes 892103 and 551035.

  • Posting a Goods Movement in SAP Retail Store

    In SAP Retail Store, under Inventory Management>Goods Movement>Other Movement, when entering articles and quantities, if you want to use multiple Bus. trans. or Reason for Movmt. values, you have to post them separately.  This requires you to post, exit out and then go back in and post again, etc. 
    Is there a way to post multiple Bus. trans. or Reason for Movmt. values on the same screen?

    Hi,
    Is that stock is tagged with sales order ?
    How you have HU in non HU managed location ??
    If you want to move stock then use t code HU02 and create HU in non HU manged location mentioning destination location as HU managed .

  • Good Movement issue in SAP retail ITS

    Hi All,
        Business is posting goods movement using SAP retail store ITS. The document gets posted in SAP successfully but storage location is not coming correct for a movement type. We have checked the configuration and it is fine. We are not able to replicate the issue in test systems.
    Kindly help us on how we can able to find a cause of this issue.
    Thanks for you help.
    Regards,
    John

    Hi John,
    Retail Store Application is desinged in such a way that for the movement type,the default storage location for the destination plant is automatically taken.
    But you can modify the code as per your requirments by implementing the given BAdI.
    CALL METHOD exit_gr_field->CHECK_INPUT_GR_item
    Modify the field for stroage location W_UMLGO .
    I hope this helps.
