Process order integration

Hi all,
I have an integration model for planned orders and process orders. Integration works without any errors. Changes in planned orders in both R/3 and APO are transferred immediately. But changes in process orders in APO are not transferred. (Changes in process orders in R/3 are transferred by the way.)
There is nothing in inbound and outbound queues for the systems.
Thanks a lot.

I assume the process order is not released yet
Also if you go to Publication settings (distribution definition) in the IMG and check if inhouse production for the location has been set up. Normally you dont need to set it up unless its a object new in APO but i suppose changing the date in APO needs to get back to R3 this way/ Also pl ensure there is an Active CIF model for the location product in R3 to APO

U00A7ECH Engineering Change with Purchase Order, Process Order and Sales Order

Hello All,
Can someone kindly explain me the integration points of Engineering Change with
1. Purchase Order
2. Process Order
3. Sales Order
I know we can see the Rev Letter in the first two. Is there a 'refresh' function inside the PO, Process Order, Sales Order by which we can get the latest and greatest revision, incase the material rev is updated/changed after the PO, Proc Order, SO is already created. Also if yes,after what status in PO, Process Order or Sales Order we cannot use the 'Refresh' button, and than what needs to be done to fix this situation.
Thanks in advance,
Sachin

Hi,
really, this depends on several factors, especially the valid from date of the ECM and its impact on changes on a BOM (which I suppose is the use case you are looking at? Or just a change on the material revision of the BOM header material?
Interesting for you should also be Order Change Management, although not applicable to process orders as far as I know:

Settlement of process order

In PP-PI We want to use active ingredient for scenario:
Our Raw material is MINING ORE which will have varying proportion of COPPER & COBALT.
Valuation of ORE is based on itu2019s content of COPPER & COBALT content. So we will use active ingredient to capture value of this raw material based on it content of CU & CO.
Now when we issue this material for production to process order, our semi finished output ( Say SFG1) will also have varying content of COPPER & COBALT based on kind of input quality. There will several process orders doing diff. processe.
Now my query is
1)     Can we settle the process order variance to COPPER & COBALT content of SFG1 instead of normal settlement to SFG1?
2)     Can I maintain my valuation of SFG1 based on COPPER & COBALT content?
3)     Do we have any user exit or BADI available to replace SFG1 with CO& CU in process order settlement rule?
4)     In standard cost estimate can we capture COPPER & COBALT characteristics?
Ultimately COPPER & COBALT are our finished goods.
I try to search sap help but not much info to help me on this.
Your input will be highly appreciated.
Nitesh

Hi,
The concept explained is typically a co-product scenario:
Ore produces SEMI COPPER and SEMI COBALT. SEMI COPPER and SEMI COBALT produce FIN COPPER and FIN COBALT.
This scenario is covered under u2018CO-PROUDUCTu2019 concept. Here Ore is Raw Material, SEMI COPPER and SEMI COBALT are SEMI-PRODUCT and finally COPPER and COBALT are Finished Product.
Now estimate the standard cost for your SEMI-PRODUCTS and FINISHED PRODUCTS using integrated BOM. Sit with your PP Consultant who can give you good input for costing the products whether based on quanity yield or quality yield.
Once this is tested and found the results are expected, the solution can be freezed.
Please let me know your feed back.

Error during Process order settlement

Hi Gurus,
i am facing problem during the process order settlement. an error is occured is as follows: Tax code V0 country IN does not exist in procedure ZTAXIN.
actually this V0 tax code is assing to the ZTAXIN procedure & which is also assign to country. i couldn't get why it ask tax code during the settlement.
In Process order Itemization i find the 2 GL ( Element) in which there is one consumption GL & second is COFG sold GL. from GL Master i remove both GL Tax category & also remove the click from posting without tax allowed. till i am facing this problem?
Please help me to overcome this issue.
Point will be rewarded if question solved.
Than'x
Dhananjay R

hi gopan,
Than'x for attention on my question. till my problem is not solved. during the process order why it hit the tax code? would u please guide me how to find the tax code assignment which hit during the process order settlement?
i have check all the Tax related setting till this issue not solved. ( Check calculation procedure (OBYG), Tax code assignment (FTXP), also check the Tax Account Integration (OB40).
also i remove tax related assignment from the GL master related to specific gl which are display in component structure.
pls help me to solve this issue..
Than'x

Total Target Costs not updated in Process Order

Hi All,
I have a scenario in a Process Order,
The Process order is Released, Goods Issued and GR done. But the when i go and check the Cost Analysis i did not see anything in the Total Target Costs and Total Target Qty coloumns agianst all the cost elements. It show as zero for all.
It looks very strange. There is variance in the component issues and GR as well. I simulated for the same material with a new Process order and found the vales get populated automatically on GI and GR's with variation against requirement quantity.
Could any one explain me why it is so ..? or is my understanding is wrong.....?
Thanks for your time and patience.

Srinath V

Srinath Venkatr,
I think you are missing PP CO integration configuration during master data creation. There might be information massage to you during process order creation saying , 'Logs during Cost calculation", you are skipping the same and creating process order withought resolving the same.
Check whether you followed all the steps for product costing.
Material master,
BOM,
OPKP:-Controlling area-activate components and Controll indicators
:- Assignment of co codes
KS01: Cost center
KA01/KA06:- Primary/ Secondary Cost elements
KL01:-Activity Types
KP26:- Activity Price Planning
Then Work center/Resource- assign these cost center and activities with costing formulas.
Then Routing/Recepi-
After master data, demand management,MRP- process order. while creating process order check cost calculation errors.
Hopes that will clear your dought

Missing Process order components in product View

Dear all,
We have a problem with Process order in APO.
We have created a planned order in APO and converted to process order . All the components of the order are APO relevant and PPM is having all the components . When We create the planned order , RRP3 is showing all the components but when we convert the planned order to process order , then the components are missing in product view . But all the components are available in Process order in ECC . We deleted the process order in APO and again CIF the order from ECC to APO , but still the components are not appearing . We need to have all the components of the order to plan the dependent demands.
We checked the Queues and found no blocked queues .
Can any one suggest me what could be the problem.
Thanks & Regards
Prabhakar

Hi Prabhakar,
How are you integrating your production order - like are you sending the planned order to ECC and convert there or you are not transferring the planned order to ECC, but setting the conversion indicator in APO?
If you don't integrate the planned order to ECC, then all the components will be displayed in APOby exploding APO PDS - no active integration model required for components.
If you integrate the planned order to ECC, then in ECC, the BOM explosion happens. - So, active integration model required.

Process Order:
Process order / Production order are activities within a business, where the production planning team team creates to absorb costs / evaluate costs / and check against planned figures. There would integration between MM/FI/PP to create such orders and process.
Planned Order:
A request created in the planning run for a plant to trigger the procurement of a plant material for a certain quantity for a specific date.
Purchase Order:
A request or instruction from a purchasing organization to a vendor (external supplier) or a plant to deliver a quantity of material or to perform services at a certain point in time.

Material Availablity check of the Process Order......

Hi there,
If the reservations of material are made against the process order & the material is not available and the stock is expected in near future........ then during the material availablity check of the process order........will it show that the material is available............
Please elucidate me.......
Thanks
Kaushik

Hi Kaushik,
Availability check is an integral part of the business process that determines if the required delivery quantity can be met on a required delivery date.
Therefore the system checks the current available quantity of stocks.........
but, for example imagine if the available stocks are not sufficient to meet the order............then the system checks replenishment lead time of the material i.e. time taken for the material to become available either internally (in house production) or externally (from a vendor) and then issues a material availability date.........i.e. date on which material would be available for delivery.
Depending on the above checks, the systems issues the delivery date.

Project Sales Order Integration

Hi,
I have a question on Oracle Project and Sales Order integration.
In the sales order form, there is a place to enter project and task information. What is the significance and how can we bring this information into Project itself?

Hi
1) Shipping functionality is supported for Sale Order, for Project Contracts and for Project Management (Deliverables). If you need to track shipping for a project, you will need to enable Project Manufacturing, no mater which of above three modules is implemented.
By the way, shipping integration for all those modules support the outbound deliverables, meanning items you need to ship from your own inventory facility to a customer or other third party. You mentioned a case for tracking items shipped from a third party vendor. You may need to look at the purchasing side and not the sale order for that.
2) If you implement Project Manufacturing, there is a process caleed Cost Collector, which interface the inventory and WIP transactions into PA Interface Table. From there you have to run the PRC: Transaction Import process to bring into Oracle Projects the expenditure Items.
3) I can explain the accounting, but I'm not sure which scenarios you will be implementing, and which module are you going to define the accounting. Please be more specific, and detail the release number your are implementing.

CIF sales orders integration models

Hi,
The activation of the sales orders integration model is taken tvery long time, although there is just one plant.
What would be a good recommendation to divide the integration models; would it work better filtering it
by group of products? How many products aprox. would be a good number by integration model?
Thanks a lot

Hi ,
Try using
Parallelized Selection in SAP R/3 and Parallelized Processing of Several Queues in APO while activating the integartion model.
Also check the settings defined in CFC3 for sales order.
Thanks,

Process orders in joint production: variance settlement to CO-PA

Dear all,
During integration test for costing based CO-PA, I have a problem regarding production variance settlement to CO-PA. I am testing CO-PA actual flows for november 2011. When I try to settle process orders with co-products for previous month, the system asks for PA transfer structure. Because of customizing setting for settlement profile being transfered later, previously created process order need to have this info, and i assigned PA structure manually in settlement rule for each process order. When I repeat variance settlement, only for process orders with co-product, the system still asks for this information, although I already had assigned PA structure to this order.
please give some advice.
Thanks Dusko

Hi
You may have 2 settlement rules for CO Products... So ensure you enter PA Trf Str at all the places... This error is never thrown by SAP w/o valid reason

Get the supply source of planned order and process order.

Hi experts,
I would like to display production version (supply source) on prduct view.
But, I don't know that how to get supply source of planned order and process order.
APO table is complax.
Do you know that?
Regards,
Satoru

Hello Tushar,
Are components also plan in APO with MRP type X0?
Does PDS or PPM contain all the components?
Verify if the component is maintained properly in the PDS.
Check whether there is an active integration model for the components, also execute the RAPOKZFX report for all the materials in question.
When you convert the PPDS order to process order then conversion happens in ECC/R/3 system. This is the place BOM has to be reexploded in ECC. Please check if you have any enhancement which restrict BOM explosion.
Also check OSS note 1576703 suggested by an expert Caetano.

Read Master Data on Process Order

Hi there,
We have a process order in status CRTD PRC APNG APRS BCRQ MANC SETC. But when user try to initiate a Read Master Data for Prod Version / Master Recipe / BOM, system is giving this error log:
No approval: production version 0001 has not been approved
Unreleased engineering change orders:
Engineering change order 500000000001 has not been released
I have checked on the Change Number for both the Master Recipe and Bill of Material and everything seems to be correct. Why does SAP prompting "No approval: production version 0001 has not been approved" and why is SAP trying to read Engineering Change Order 500000000001? This is an old one possibly the first Engineering Change Order generated...
Cheers

Dear,
As per GMP Steps are as,
The procedure in the environment requiring an approval is the following:
-> Create
1. Create new production version, without specifying recipes and bill of material.
2. Assign a change number which is valid for the recipe and the bill of material to be entered to the production version.
3. Enter recipe and bill of material in the production version or if external number assignment of the recipe is required, make no entry in the recipe group.
4. Navigate to the recipe, for example, by double-clicking on the Recipe field.
5. Maintain the recipe and the material list (bill of material) within the recipe as usual.
6. Save the recipe and, therefore, also the bill of material. (Return to the production version transaction. )
7. Save the production version.
-> Change
1. Assign a change number which is valid for the recipe and the bill of material entered or to be entered to the existing production version.
2. Navigate to the recipe and further processing as described under -> Create.
After the release of the change request, all three objects production version, recipe and bill of material are approved providing a change rule which prescribes an approval procedure was defined in the recipe header.
You need a suitable change request for defining the change rule. Providing you use the integrated maintenance via the production version as recommended, proceed as described above and assign the suitable change request to the production version.
If you want to ensure furthermore that no recipes are created without change request, use a profile set correspondingly in Customizing for the creation of recipes.
Hope clear to you. For details refer the Note 154360 - Maintain prod.vrsns+recpes i.env.requirng an apprvl

Differrence Between Process Order & Production Order

What is differrence between Process Order & Production order apart from that process order is used in process industry & other one in discrete mfg ??

Hi
there isn't really any difference. The main difference is in master data: Routing vs. Recipe.
as you have mentioned, prodn. orders are used for discrete, repetitive & virtual mfg scenarios whereas process orders are used for process industries (chemicals, pharmaceuticals etc.,) where the prodn. is non-stop.
You can use production order or process order for the same scenario even when you are in a process industry. It is your decision to use either one, but you have to know that process order is more appropriate when you have more machine integrations and interfaces. Process order, as well, requires more master data than production order since you are clubbing both BOM & Routing in the master recipe.
also Process Order can handle batch management and joint production scenario in a better way in comparison to the production order. Also in process order you can maintain the inprocess instructions and special control paramters for production via the process instruction key and control recipe which is not there in a prodcution order.
hope it helps

Srinivas
