Pricing Profile - Generic Article

Dear Experts,
Whenever i create generic article system by default proposes pricing profile as '2' under basic data screen, however i do not wish to maintain same price for all variants. How can we influence this process that system do not propose '2' as pricing profile, thus the generic article price will not get inherited to all variants.
Look forward to have expert advise.

Hi,
This is controlled by the standard table/field entry settings and it's genearlly not advisable to change the std settings..Also you can always change the pricing profile to 1 or keep it as "Empty" by making this field(MARA-SPROF) a required entry.
However,if you really want,you can give it a try using the following steps.
1.Go to Transaction OMSR(Assign Field to Field selection Groups)
2.Scroll down to find MARA-SPROF - Pricing Profile for variants (Selection Group - 160)
3.Click on Details button
4.Untick the "Propose Field content" under Field attributes
Hope it helps.
Best Regards,

Generic Article purchase pricing issue

Hi Gurus,
For SAP Retail, when I create PO with generic articles, the pricing for generic article is always at variants level. Is it possible to change it to generic article level? or when I change the price of generic article, it can automatically apply to all its variants?
For my business scenario, there will be no difference for price between variants of one generic article. So we want to adjust price on generic article level. Otherwise I need to adjust price for each variant. It is time-consuming and cannot garantee updating same price for each variant.
Thanks,
Donald

Hello,
You should be able to make use of Pricing Reference Article field (MARA-PMATA) for this. You may maintain condition records for Generic articles and maintain Generic articles as the Pricing Reference Articles for the variants.
This is just a suggestion. I have not tested it to see whether it works.
Thanks,
Venu

@1) create an empty. Create a full porduct with material type VOLL. Link the maintained empty product to your full product
@2) Generate a generic artiocle. Go to purchasing view an dpress the button (variant prices) But normaly all variants have the price from the generic article. Thats the idea behind.
@3) enter only the generic article and the sum of e.g 30 pieces. Then a matrix will appears and you can spread the quantities.
Using quota scales, the distribution can be defaulted.

Pricing Profile can not be created, It is default in SAP...this can be assigned in Basic view of Article master data
This profile is useful for fixing price for variant article...three way you can define variant price
If you select
                0. Variants will have different price
     1. Variants can maintain different price
     2. Variants have same price as Generic material
> also is it possible to give price for generic article using sales price calculation (VKP1 and VKP5)
It is same like single article...you can maintain price in VKP1, VKP5

Generic article - Pricing profile

Hi
I am using pricing profile 1 in the generic article, when i compute the sales price at VKP5 , it is not proposing generic article price for variant in editable mode instead for all variants list fields are greyed out and i am not able to change it. It seems pricing profile 1 is ibehaving same way like profile 2 in all aspect.
Actually profile 1 articles should propose generic level price in editable mode so that we can change variant price if we need.
My scenario is, few variants will have different price than generic article price, hence i am using generic article as reference article, i don't want to use price profile blank or 2.
Best Regards
Swami

Hi Aram
Variant level pricing will be keep changing hence ideal would be using profile 1 but at the same time system should have the flexibility to change the price at variant level. Client don't want to maintain blank at price reference field for the variant articles.
Even if i maintain pricing profile blank or 1, system is not bringing variant during VK11 maintenance.

Analysis Report for generic articles based on different characteristics

Dear all ,
We are running SAP Retail solution ,and we use generic articles for the management of cloth and shoes articles.
So far ,we didn't find any standard t-code in sap GUI for the slaes analysis of generic articles base on their characteristics ,for example ,we use color and size to form the characteristic profile and assign it to some generic articles ,after a period of sales ,we want to analysis which size is more favarable as to the same color or to the contrary.
Except for BW , Is there some info-structure or t-code in GUI for this analysis ?

Hai deyi chen,
If you know the table were data stored.
Create your own report formats using SQVI
T CODE SQVI
Table Join
Add Tables and system will show the join automatic in case if u know u can also change.
Now You select which fields to be in the selection screen and select fields to be listed inside the report.

Delivery completed indicator is not tick on generic article

Hello Expert,
I create a normal purchase order with generic article and variants.
Then, I do goods receipt with full quantity.
Delivery completed indicator is automatic set 'X' on variant items.
But with generic article, Delivery completed indicator is not set 'X'.
Do I miss any configuration ?
Please help me !
Regards,
Minh

Hi Minh,
as far as I know, this is a normal system behaviour and not an error or missing configuration.
The generic article in the goods receipt has a statistical character. No goods receipt can take place for the generic article. The goods receipt only takes place for the variants of the generic article and so the delivery completed indicator only gets set for the variants and not for the generic article.
Hope it helps.

IS-Retail -Problem in Conversion of Generic Articles

Despite mapping correctly all the segments in I-Doc creation and also in using the appropriate BAPI for conversion of generic article creation using t-code MM41, we get the message "The Generic Article could not be created as a class". After refinement with accurate data in all the relevant segments, we still get the message "No value assignment transferred for the variant creating characteristic". Could someone please throw light on where we may be going wrong or give us a new direction to resolve this issue? We have to convert about 10,000 generic articles in the first run for the current Project.

Hi
Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I am experiencing the same error on ERP6:
''No value assignment transferred for the variant-creating characteristic'' for idoc basic type ARTMAS03.
Thanks

BAPI_MATERIAL_MAINTAINDATA_RT update gross weight for generic article

Hi, I want to update the gross weight (MARM-BRGEW) for a generic article and it's variants. Sometimes, the new gross weight is not propagate to all the article related variants when I'm using BAPI BAPI_MATERIAL_MAINTAINDATA_RT ??
In the structure headdata, I just pass the article number and flag the basic_view. I used 2 internal table for the unit of measures (bapie1marmrt, bapie1marmrtx).
Example of my source code:
st_headdata-material   = st_marm-matnr.
st_headdata-matl_cat   = st_marm-attyp. (01 for generic)
st_headdata-ref_matl   = st_marm-matnr.
st_headdata-basic_view = 'X'.
st_bapimarm-material   = st_marm-matnr.
st_bapimarm-alt_unit   = st_marm-meinh.
st_bapimarm-numerator = st_marm-umrez.
st_bapimarm-denominatr = st_marm-umren.
st_bapimarm-gross_wt   = pa_brgew.
st_bapimarm-unit_of_wt = st_marm-gewei.
st_bapimarmx-material   = st_marm-matnr.
st_bapimarmx-alt_unit   = st_marm-meinh.
st_bapimarmx-numerator = 'X'.
st_bapimarmx-denominatr = 'X'.
st_bapimarmx-gross_wt   = 'X'.
st_bapimarmx-unit_of_wt = 'X'.
APPEND: st_bapimarm   TO tp_bapimarm,
          st_bapimarmx TO tp_bapimarmx.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_MAINTAINDATA_RT'
    EXPORTING
      headdata        = st_headdata
    IMPORTING
      return          = st_return
    TABLES
      unitsofmeasure = tp_bapimarm
      unitsofmeasurex = tp_bapimarmx.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'.
Let's say my article has 3 unit of mesasure which are EA, PAK, CAR. The base unit of measure of the articles (generic + variants) are EA.
