Production Order for a Material with two units of measure?

Hi Everybody I have the following issue.
In my company there is a new production process with a Material that should be configured in the master data with the field "Base Unit of Measure" as per unit (each). But the production process, should be confirmed by tx CO11N, in Kilograms. I know that I can use the additional Data in tx MM03 to set a Production Unit, but the value of convertion would be fixed. For example 122 Kg = 1 each, the thing is that the value in kilograms for each lot can vary, one lot can weight 122 and another one can weghr 125, and in each case I shoul have two units in stock. And as I have the value of convertion fixed, when I confirm each lot one for 122 kg and another for 125 kg I will have 2.025 units in MB52.
How can I solve this problems? I need to have the chance the confirm in kg changing for each lote the quantity but in the base Unit of Measure have one unit for lot. As if for tx CO11N I could have a field where I can set tha x quantity of Kilograms is x each.
Kind regards
Leandro. 

Hi Ayoub, First thank`s for your promt answer,
1. The Quantity is different, because is not a perfect process, there is a manual work in the process that makes this quantity differ, there is no big difference, maybe a Kilo or Two but the production mannager wants to have this registered. And besides in productions they manage kilograms, but for selling the comercials manage units (each - EA)
2.The convertion rate is known at the end of the process after cutting and packaging a unit, they weight it.
Regards
Leandro

  • Error while converting planned order to production order for config materia

    Hi experts,
    While converting a planned order to production order for a configurable material.I am getting the following error meassage. Message No.CO684,
    "You cannot make an assignment to make-to-order stock"
    ( DiagnosisThe component cannot be allocated to an individual stock because make-to-order production and engineer-to-order production cannot be executed with this order.
    A possible cause is that you are trying to create an order with reference to a sales-order/project, where an account assignment to a sales order/project is not allowed in the settlement profile that is assigned to the chosen order type. This is inconsistant.
    System ResponseThe following responses are possible:

    I have checked some of the threads related to this error. But no where there is any solution.Please tell me if there is any settings to make so as to work on this scenario.
    Thanks,
    Sham

    Hi,
    This will be a MTO scenario. Please check your requirement type,Requirement class and strategy type config along with your Item category and schedule line category from SD.
    Also check your Production order type config and settlement profiles.
    I mean to say that you need new production order type to be configured for specific above mentioned combination.
    Are you working on a production system..?? is it the first time you are creating the order for this config material..??

  • Creation of Sale Order for configurable material with availability check.

    Hi,
    We have a scenario in which the material is configurable. The configurable material (X) has few variants (Ex: X1, X2, X3, X4, X5). While booking the sale order, we use the material number (X).
    Further, the material planning is done for the variants X1, X2, X3, X4, X5. The standard variants are planned for production in advance.
    1.     While booking the sale order, we want the availability check of the stock (type matching to happen). What needs to be done in configuration?
    2.     While booking the sale order, there is a possibility that the configuration selected will not match with any of the standard variants due to some additional requirements of the optional features, in such cases how to link the standard variants to the sale order & create requirement for additional requirements.
    Regards,
    Umesh

    Hi Umesh,
               1.Create material master for configurable material and variants in mm01.
               2.Maintain BOM for the configurable material in CS01
               3. Configur the variant configuration steps
                  a. Create charecteristics T.code CT04
                  b. Create values and assign classes
                  c. assign the values to charecteristics
                  d . Maitain dependence  T.code CU01
                  e.create configuration profile t.code CU41
                  f.stimulate the configuration profile.
    4. Do the availability check configuration through this path
    IMG --> Sales and distribution > Basic functions ,> Availabilty check and Transfer of requirements.
    5. Maintain the Availbility check field and MRP views in the material masters other wise you sit with PP people and do that
    I hope it will help you

  • Is production order for one material only?

    Hello
    Is it true that one material can be specified in production order as the output (material to be produced)?
    and what is combined order? why the output material in combined order can be different from output materials in subordinate orders?
    Thanks

    Dear,
    In Combination order you can combine the serval planned, production order to one new combine order. This functionality is available in IS mill.

  • Creation of Production Order for Deleted Material

    How can I prevent a production order from being created for a material that has been marked for deletion?  Currently, our system generates a warning but allows the order to be created.

    Thanks for the suggestion of the material status but I am trying to stay away from assigning a code to a delete flagged material.
    The message I am getting is CO732.  I went into transaction OPJB to change the message from warning to error but that message is not listed in that transaction.  I tried adding it and still received a warning message.
    Is there another transaction to check so I can switch it?

  • Error in GR for a Production Order for a particular material....Unique case

    Hi Dear Gurus,
    I am facing the following problem:
    There is a production order for a material (say X, matrl type FERT) of order qty 21EA. First we did GR of qty 9EA. but when we are going to do GR for the rest of the qty i.e.12EA it is not happening system showing Error message " Account XXXXX requires an assignment to a CO object".
    But while we are going to do GR for the rest 12Ea qty in two parts i.e. first by doing GR of 11EA then 1EA system is accepting.
    Interestingly if do the GR for the same order as first by 8EA and then the rest 13EA that is also accepting.
    Eventhough, for any other material (of same type and group) if we make a production order of the same 21EA and then doing GR firstly by 9Ea and then 12EA that is also getting posted properly.
    What would be the reason for the error message for that particular case?
    Here the system is SAP4.5B version, material MRP type is M0, lot size  FX & fixed lot size 10Ea, safety stock 8EA, Reorder point 15.
    Thanks in advance for your inputs.

  • Material data load with two unit (0MAT_UNIT) failed?

    Hi,
    I am loading the 0MAT_UNIT data from R/3 QAS to BW QA, I am getting below error.
    0MAT_UNIT : Data record 34 ('000000000000010249 ') : Duplicate data record RSDMD 191
    There two records for same material number with two different units (EA and PAK), Data loaded to BW dev successfully even if duplicate records for material with two units but it failed in BW QA.
    Any setting I am missing?
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    If you look at the definition of the P table (/BI0/PMAT_UNIT) you will find that both material and unit are keys. So the system recognizes a record as duplicate only when a given material with a given unit exists twice in the data. Based on what you are saying, this is not the case. You have two separate units for a given material. Can you please check to see if there is another record for the same material in a different datapacket ??

  • Split valuation for  material with two different price indicator S and V

    Hello Gurus,
    Is it possible to maintain split valuation for same material with two different price indicator S and V.
    For Ex. Material A is manufactured can be manufactured in house ,  procured from outside vendor and can be purchased from subcontracting vendor by providing raw material.
    We want to keep  Price control V for same material " A"  which is procured from outside vendor.
    And price control S for inhouse produced same material " A".
    Besically this material is semifinished and having BOM for subcontracting.
    Please advice.

    Hi
    When the material is split valuated, you maintain the accounting view for the material 1st with valuation category, here the price control should be V.
    When you will extend the material to valuation type "Inhouse mfgd" maintain the price control as S, for valuation type "Procured form outside vendor" maintain it as V.

  • Creating a production order for a semi finished product

    Hi
    I am having a multi level bom scenario over here.
    one of the bom components of the header material is a semi finished product.
    I am using the planing stratagy 40 for that material.
    in standard sap when i create a production order for  header material. the requirement gets transerd to all the components. if the components are not available then only  a requirement is placed. when i run MRP that requirement gets converted in to a planned order. which converts in to a purchase req or a production order,
    well for my semi finished product. its a Work in process item. there wont be any stock for that item in the storage location any time.
    what my requirement is. when i create a production order for my finished product it should automatically create a production order for the semi finished product.
    is this possible with some configuration settings.

    Dear Deepu,
    for ur requirement u need to maintain MRP type PD for FERT material and also for ur HALB.
    If u run  MRP  only, it will create planned order for FERT and for all its dependent requirement(for PD).
    If u create order manually for FERT material then it will not create order for HALB material, u need to create manualy for this also.

  • Costing run for a material with alternative BOM

    Hi Friends,
    My requirement is to have product costing for a material with 3 different BOMs, in CK11N i can change the alternative BOM number to have costing run for 3 differesnt boms, but in ck24 how to proceed, My client requirement is such that the standard price should be the average price of the costing run from 3 different boms, and they are not interested in manual price change in MR21
    Regards,
    Arun Kumar R V

    Hi Arun,
    You can have a Standard cost estimate based on only one of the alternative BOM and Routing. This alternative is selected based on the business ie., whichever alternative is generally used in production frequently. This will be the std cost and whenever you do the production using the other alternatives, the difference in cost will be captured as Variance.
    There is no option of having average or cost estimate for each alternative at the same time.
    There is absolutely no use in maintaining price in MR21 for an in house produced material, since during Prod Order process the planned costs will be arrived at based on the quantity structure of BOM & Route only.

  • Production order for a multiple materials codes...

    Dear...
    Could you please suggest me the SAP solution for the below production strategy.
    This production process is of heat treatment. Actually I am doing heat treatment of Cast and Forge items. These items weights are in the range of 150 kgs to 40000kgs. For example I am having a 40 tons heat treatment furnace. So at a time I can load the materials upto 40 tons. I am having different materials of different sizes and chemical compositions.  But heat treatment cycle(Routing) is same. So I can load different types of materials i.e. upto 40tons for the heat treatment for which same type of heat treatment is required. Sometimes this may be a single item .. if the weight of the items is 40 tons. If it is single item...then there is no problem. If I am loading different items...and if execution process is same for all the items, then how can I map this in the SAP. So that I can create a single order for different Items of different materials and quantity. I need to do the confirmation of these items with respect to the same item. Please suggest me...how can we map this scenario into the SAP.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Surya.

    Hi surya,
    As per the heat treatment process concern, total cycle time is constant, and load is also constant (if we havenot changed).
    i hope u have defined workcenter formula and routing accordingly.
    i think creating single production order for multiple material is not possible, instead of thsi, i would suggest one way,
    > Since u have to maintain stock for Heatreated items, create sepearte Material code for each item to be heatreated.
    > Create BOM ,Routing  for New Material code.
    > Acitvate Batch management for New Material Code has been created.
    >Now create Production order for each material to be processed in one cycle, Assign the Batch Number manually.Batch number repersents your Heat treatment cycle number and same can de used for traceability.
    >Confirm the each order seperately, Now the Heatrement process cost will be updated and stock will be posted to heatreated storage loaction.
    But i am worrying about capacity planning and scheduling, For my knowlegde purpose i would like to know your existing scenoria, like workcenter formula and  routing operation values has been assigned , if u wish plz share with us.
    Please come back with your ideas..
    regards

  • BOM with alternate unit of measure

    Hello team
    Is it possible to create the BOM with alternate unit of measure ?
    Thanks
    JJ

    Hi,
    Not possible to create BOM by item material with alt unit of measure.
    If you want to use other UOM in production, use issue unit in work scheduling view.
    If you want to procure use order unit in purchasing view.
    For selling use sale unit in sales view.

  • ME51N : how to deal with different units of measure as defined in MM01?

    Hi Folk,
    Could you please help me ?
    Some of our materials booked in stock are purchased by our purchasing department in Europe but as well by our purchasing department in US.
    The base unit of measure of those materials are defined with KG (kilogram) in the masterdata file (MM01).
    Why this is not allowed to enter a purchase requisition (ME51N) with other unit of measure than KG?  My purchasing department in US is not able to work with kilogram and thus they need to enter the requisition with US units of measure (pounds).
    However when we create purchase orders, we can play with other units of measure.
    Does someone can explain to me how to create a PR with a unit of measure different from the default one?  Or could you share your experience to bypass this issue.  Note that we really would like to have the same material number both for Europe and US (with different plants and storage locations).
    Thank you very much!
    François.
