Problem in Raw Material Purchase

Hi,
I have some issues.. I need some advice on that.
one of the raw material used in production is Grain (eg: Rice). Which is purchased in tons from different supplier. these incoming grain are put into quality inspection.
1 - but the order quantity is very large in number. going into several hundred tons. for this there is only one purchase order. but supplier supplies materials in different vehicles eg: trucks, trailers etc and in different dates. how can i map this scenario in SAP QM so that inspection lot is created for every incoming vehicle rather than every purchase order..
2 - grains are supplied in the bags in trucks. to conduct quality checks, samples are taken from these bags but not from all the supplied bags. samples are taken from only the accessible bags. i.e. from the bags at the end of the truck / trailer.
vendor may have put very good quality grains at the end of the truck, as he knows all bags are not accessible, specially the inside ones may contain very bad quality grains. what can i suggest to control this?
3 - it always takes time to conduct quality tests, supplier cannot wait till all test finishes. as soon as goods are received there will be unloading of the grains and these directly go into production. after the test results there may be rejections in quality. Again to control these what can i suggest to the client.
Please give me your advice on these
Thanks and Regards,
Pavan

Hi

Suppose that the PO was cerated for 1000 tonns.Now You don't want Lot to be created as per Purchase order.Then
1.Create a material master for material,maintain QM view for the same.
2.Activate 01 inspection type.In Inspection type maintain " InspecLot Control" as "Per material document."
Against PO you have created ,you can create multiple GR's & every time lot will be created.
2 - grains are supplied in the bags in trucks. to conduct quality checks, samples are taken from these bags but not from all the supplied bags. samples are taken from only the accessible bags. i.e. from the bags at the end of the truck / trailer.
vendor may have put very good quality grains at the end of the truck, as he knows all bags are not accessible, specially the inside ones may contain very bad quality grains. what can i suggest to control this?
This will be only possible by Random sampling.Here SAP really can not help you as far system or discipline of vendor is concern.only control is by increasing the scope of sample collection.
3 - it always takes time to conduct quality tests, supplier cannot wait till all test finishes. as soon as goods are received there will be unloading of the grains and these directly go into production. after the test results there may be rejections in quality. Again to control these what can i suggest to the client.
1.one method can be say vendor has supplied 100 tonns.You have consumed 20 tonns while you found rejection.What you can do is keep the 80 tonns aside.
When Next GR will be made against his next delivery you can do Return Delivery of 80 Tonns for Fresh lot & do physical return delivery of old 80 tonns.
2.Next could be just Quarentine the lot which is rejected & send back to vendor (122 mvt) or ask for replacement.This can be done without GR for replaced material.(may be returnable challan)
You may find other ways also
I hope this will help

  • Raw Material Purchase figure in SAP

    We in SAP are having Raw Material Consumption based accounting in FI. There are not purchases record in SAP for raw material. But we require this figure every month so is there any std.purchase register in SAP? How at the year end we will match Purchases as per Register & purchases derived from R M Consumption+ RM Closing stock-RM Opening stock?
    Please advise on this issue?

    Dear Pravin Navghane,
    You can activate purchase accounting in
    SPRO > Materials Management > Valuation and Account Assignment > Account Determination > Account Determination Without Wizard > Purchase Account Management ..........

    If I want to kno in one step the cumulative quantity of all raw material purchased & consumed in one year, is there any other report than MB51 to kno this. As it takes lot of time 2 execute with MB51, as there are mor than 1000 materials.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can get in ME2M
    Details need to Select:-Plant,material group, and Document date..
    Select Scope of List -ALV
    You will get report with PO details. sort with GR number.

  • Re : Reserved stock of raw material in MMBE

    HI
        While doing make-to-stock production the raw material purchasing from vendor is updated in both unrestricted use and reserved use. after finishing production the unrestricted stock is removed but the reserved stock is not removed.
    How to solve this.
    Thanls
    Mani

    Dear,
    Reserved stock which is showing in Stock overview or any other stock reports is not the physical stocks. These stocks are created with respect to reservation.
    You can't transfer the stock from reserved stock to Unrestricted stock. These reserved stock is just the information availble in Stock overview for the User that this much stock is pending for transfer with respect to reservation. So when you post the stock with respect to reservation then this reserved stock will automatically decreased with that posted stock for the material. You can't transfer that to unrestricted.MB1C will help you in this case with 261 movement.
    if set TECO status for your first production order, system will release the reserved stock, it comes to unrestricted stock.
    If it is not take place then to run the correction program Go to SE38 give RM06C020 and execute.

  • Raw material cost estimates

    HI experts,
    Currently we have the following scenario:
    There are some raw materials which are procured externally, and these materials are maintained with price control S
    Well, the problem is that the standard cost for the material consists of a few more components, for example:
    The standard price for the material X is 20 USD which consists of:
    - the price of the material itself : 15 USD
    - the import duty : 5 USD
    let's say if the actual import duty happened during IR is 6 USD, how can we get the variance from the difference between the import duty? I am unfamiliar with raw material cost estimate, but seeing that the import duty will be captured using condition type in PO, i assumed that we can use raw material cost estimates with this, and use the COPA report with record type B for this case.
    Could anyone give any suggestions regarding this case? It is better if it comes with step to step guide.
    Thank you very much in advance
    Regards,
    Erwin

    Hi Erwin
    1. The ideal design would have been Price Control V if the material is outright purchased... There by not leaving any scope for variances... You would agree that it is best to valuate inventory @ actuals as far as possible
    2. If you want to retain S, then release your Std cost as many times as the Base Price of 15 or Import duty of 5 usd changes... This will also avoid variances during MIGO.. However, it will throw up inventory revaluation figure each time u release new cost estimate
    Else, the variances will be updated to CO or COPA as per your choice in OKB9.... The record type will be B
    Are you not able to update variance to COPA?

  • Cost Run for Raw Material taking Standard Price instead of Moving Price

    Hi all,
    We ran a material costimate with normal components FG>SFG>RM.  The RM price Control is set to
    V (Moving Average Price) and for SFG & FG it is S(Std. Price).  After we run CK11N, the price for
    RM in Material Master changes as per Moving Price.  We found that the RM Component is
    costed based on Standard Price and not on the previous cost run Moving Average Price.  After
    certain period, if we again do cost run, the sytem is again picking up the standard price for costing
    not the revised Moving Price.  We have checked the Valuation Variant in the Costing Variant, where the strategy given is 1. Moving Average Price 2. Standard Price.  We also tried to change the
    sequence as 1. Price as per Purchase Info Record 2. Moving Average Price and 3. Standard Price and
    also 1. Standard Price and 2. Moving Average Price.  Our requirement is when we run the cost estimate the raw material has to pick the price of previous moving price stored in the Material Master.  Kindly tell us where to set the indicator.
    Thanks,
    Sadashivan

    Hi Srikanth,
    Problem solved.  I checked the sequence in Valuation Variant and modified in Valuation Variant for Plant which I have not set previously and now the system is working correctly.

  • Raw Material Costing with Overhead, Product Cost Planning

    Hi,
    I have an issue applying overhead to purchased raw materials. We need to apply this overhead for only a certain materials. So, I have defined a overhead key/overhead Group, and assigned the group in the material master of the raw material. The overhead is 2% freight on raw material costs.
    In the std.costing variant, I have assigned the costing sheet under Overhead on material components tab of the corresponding valuation variant. I have also included the Freight OH in the cost component structure.
    However, when I run the costing with CK11N for the raw material, it is showing only the raw material cost, not the overhead.
    What could be the problem?
    I appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Ram

    Is the overhead rate a percentage type or quantity based?
    Have you maintained both actual and plan rates (1 & 2) under define % based OH rates or Qty based OH rates accordingly?
    Does the validity date (in define OH rates )cover the date of costing?
    Is the Costing sheet assigned to the valuation variant at plant level?
    Is the OH base in the costing sheet includes the cost element of the raw material?

  • How MRP Run exclude QI Stock Type of a Raw Material SLOC?

    Dear all
    Fact:
    All of our raw materials must be subject to quarantinee upon GR. We have Storage Location of Raw Material: RMSL
    In Material Master of that Raw Material
    We are using the "SLOC of EP" (MRP View 2) to put the defaulted GR SLOC. And we also make use of the "Post to QI Stock" in View: Purchasing.
    Upon GR:
    During GR, the Raw Mat SLOC (RMSL) will be copied from "SLOC of EP" of the material master data, and it will be posted to the stock type "QI STOCK".
    Problem:
    However, when the MRP Controller run MRP, it will take the QI Stock Type of Raw Material SLOC into account.
    Is there anyway we can exclude the QI Stock Type of Raw Material SLOC from MRP Run?
    I have read from some threads to suggest to post it to the Quarantinee SLOC. We prefer not to create another Quarantinee SLOC (QISL) which will be filled in SLOC of EP and then after passing QC, we perform Transfer Posting from SLOC: QISL to SLOC: RMSL. We have a few Raw Material SLOCS and we do not want the Warehouse guy to get confused which Raw MAterial SLOC to choose upon GR. Rather, we prefer it to be defaulted in the "SLOC of EP" in the material master.
    Please advise.
    Edited by: Daimos on Jul 13, 2009 1:16 PM

    Hi,
    Generally MRP consider stock from all the storage location when run the MRP for Plant level for material.
    However we can exclude the particular storage location from MRP Run, for those following settings to be done.
    Go to MRP-2 View of material master and select the storage location to be excluded from MRP. (Press Shift +f1 ex .sloc2) As per your case it should be RMSL
    In that MRP view go to Storage location MRP Tab.
    And assign u201CSLoc MRP indicator = 1 (Storage location stock excluded from MRP)u201Dand save.
    Now run the MRP, stock from sloc2 will not be considered to create-planned order.
    Please try this and revert back.
    Cheers,

  • Raw material to semi finished

    There is a client requirement that they purchase a material as a raw material.
    After some time they will go for subcontracting of this item. In that case material type will be Semi finished.
    There may be N no of such materials.
    How will I solve this problem.
    Regrads & thanks
    -Bansal

    Hi,
    To add to Lekhram's good advice.
    If the material that has been subcontracted is different in any way to the material before this process then they should be different material master records.
    The material type is not as important as you would think, as long as the correct views are available, the correct combination of internal and external POs have been set and the correct valuation classes are on the accounting view then it shouldn't matter too much about which material type is used. But RAW for the component material and HALB for the finished item would be sensible.
    But in a fully correct process you would raise the subcontract PO for the finished item and send your raw material to the subcontractor and then receive back the finished item (MIGO). (Using ME2o or similar to manage the sending of the raw material to the vendor)

  • Tracking of RAW MATERIAL

    Dear,
    My client has a retail business but same as trading business means we purchased finished goods from the manufacturer and directly sell it in the market. Directly we don't care for the raw material. Client don't purchased raw material but provide following information to the manufacturer:
    a) Rates of the raw materials
    b) To whom raw material have to procure
    c) Integrands to produce finished goods
    Problem: Now in system how I will track the above the following things:
    a) List of raw material to produce Finished goods - Where to maintain in the system
    b) Conversion rates to produce finished good
    c) Packing cost
    But when client make the purchased order it will not float in the Po and no sub contracting cycle will be run. Normal procurement cycle will be run.
    Kindly help me
    Thanks & regards

    Hi,
    This sounds like a very complicated process because majority of the master data is not maintained in SAP. Hence what Jurgen was trying to say. If you would like to track the Excel files, you could use Document Management System in SAP (DMS).
    Other than that, I am not sure what else you could do unless you do everything in SAP.

  • Raw Material Price Change When cancelled Order

    Dears Experts ,
    I have issue when cancel production order and if there any change in prices in raw material it will directly carry out the Cost (price) differences
    to Production Variance .
    and Report KOC4 [ Variance Category ] is not displayed the above variance .
    So i guess if i carry out the price variance for cancellation order to revalaution variance account i think this right solution .
    i updated OBYC -> PRD -> PRF   to revaluation variance but i face a other problem when orders settled it carry out for revaluation account not production variance account    .
    and      OBYC -> PRD -> PRA Purchase Price Variance Account .
    Could You please advise me what can i do to match the production variance account with KOC4 .

  • Raw material profit centre document is not generated

    Hi All
    When i maintain profit centre in raw material and do GR/IR, only accounting doc is generated. The profit centre mentioned in material is reflected against both accounts in the entry. (rm inventory a/c and GR/IR clearing a/c)
    When I go and see report of that particular profit centre I dont see any posting. Why is it so?
    Can u help me out?
    Regards
    Rakesh

    I am certain that a profit center document gets created for materials that have moving average price.
    If the profit center in the material master was entered after the goods receipt, then the amount is still  posted to a default profit center, but not to the profit center you expect.
    first find your movement in MB51 or in purchase order history tab of ME23N.
    Beeing in the material document, click the finance documents button at header level in document info tab. A pop-up appears where you have to select to where to go, either to the accounting doc or to the profit center document.
    If you see this profit center doc in this pop-up, then you can be sure that it is posted to a profit center. go into this document to see to which profit center the posting was made.
