Production process tracking

is there anyway i can track the progress of a product on every stage of the production process??

Hi raf timan,
Please try with COOIS Report. To get the report as u need try with below selection criteria.
List=oprations
profile= stad profile
prod order check box=select.
Give ut production orde & plant as selection criteria.
Inside the report u can ues change layout option to select whatever information u need like Operation numbre, qty, yield qty, scrap,dates,...like
u can "select stytem status" field also using this option, this will give the status of each opreation in prod order.
status= CNF confirmed fully (final confirnation)
PCNF = Partialy confirmed, then the opeartion yet to confirm with balance qty.

Subcontracting / Outsourcing of Production process

Dear Team,
We have taken Manufacturing Module recently on our BYD recently.
but we are unable to define / locate out sourcing process in system.
Complete Scenario described as below
Procurement of Raw Material ---> BOM ---> BOO (two step) --->Quality Check ---> & Finish Goods.
In this we have Two step BOO (cost loaded through resources)
In-house Processing
Milling (Cost = Rs 10/-)
Drilling (Cost = Rs 10/-)
Sub-Contracting Processing (we pay below cost to contractor who process goods in his premises)
Hardening (Cost = Rs 15/-)
Blackening (Cost = Rs 15/-)
Unable to sort out below queries :
* Sub contracting cost is billed two times (in purchasing as cost center & in BOO Processing),
which means if actual Cost is Rs 50/-, additional Rs 15/- cost loaded through PO)
* If we remove subcontracting process from BOO then we loose track of production process (still production cost of material is not calculated anywhere)
Experts.....
Please give your valuable suggestion.
Regards,
Vishal Kambare

Hi Vishal,
not sure if I understood correctly, because costs from a BOO are not billed. However I think you want to avoid that costs are collected on the one hand side based on resource rates and via purchasing.
Maybe you could try the following:
- create two resources, one with a cost rate reflecting the subcontracting and another w/o a cost rate.
Then create two alternative production models with either of these two resources.
- Use the production model w/o a cost rate for poduction
- Use the production model with a cost rate for material cost estimate. You can give this production model a higher priority for product costing.
Hope this helps.

Problem in Production Process

Hi
My client receives vehicle from customer and changes into ambulance.Assembly process is done here.
According to him there are stages in production like:
1. Structure
2. Insulation
3. A/c fitting
4. Despatch
These are the stages.Now he wants to issue items to each stages with fixed decided quantity.*There is BoM for each stage but
problem is no new parent item is formed*.So i cant use production process.For this i have made store, Structure, Insulation, A/c fitting, Despatch as warehouses in the system so that items could be issued from store to these warehouses stages wise.
Now the items issued to structure, insulation will make medical component as a item.And item issued to A/c fitting, Despatch contribute to form ambulance component.
Now during delievry medical component,ambulance component and vehicle that was received will be invoiced to customer.
Please suggest me how can use this process in SAP B1?
Thanks

There is no purchase of vehicle it is just receipt of vehicle from the customer and then passing the same vehicle through various stages and then receive ambulance at the last.
At each stage items are issued from store.
If i could use production process then it was easy for me to alott a serial no to the production process but now imn not able to solve this production procedure in B1, so tracking will be definatly nxt issue.
But in system what i calculate is that he wants inventory transfer from store to these warehouses and then at last consuming them to form new product.

Taking the Components into Production process

Hi All,
I have got one Businee Scenario for i need to map in SAP.
Scenario: Customer is sending the Components for making the finished goods. In this case Business will be using the customeru2019s components for production process.
Now, How to take the components inside the plant for the Production Processing
In this below points needs to be consider:
1. Components Stock should be Stock of this Production Plant
2. Components valuation should not effected of production Plant
3. These components should be used for the Production
Please suggest the Suitable Process in SAP.
Regards
Vinay

Hi,
Below process steps would help you.
Configure seperate storage location for customer materials which is not relevant to MRP. Receive Customer material with (101) or without (502) the purchase order. Maintain the material master with "S" standard price 0.01 so the iventory at the plant will always show minimum. Dont know HERS material type would be helpful to you.
Configure seperate movement type (261 to xyz) to issue the customer material into production process. The new movement type will help track the goods issues and goods receipts for customer materials.
I have following questions on your scenario:
(1) Would the customer material cost to be added to your finished prouct?
(2) Do you wanted to have the MRP for customer materials?
(3) Do you process customer material at the plant or JUST use them as it is?
Above questions will little change the process steps but overall it'll work.

Modifications on Production Process Order

HI Experts:
How can I check all the modifications involved on a production process orders? as a log of the system? similar to MM03 or others transactions???
Thanks
Diego

Diego,
This is something SAP lacks, the possible changes you can track is for the System Status, and if OCM was Implemented few more changes can be tracked.

Discrete production process after creating sales order with raw materials

Dear all,
I need your support on a specific solution related to discrete production process.
After creating a sales order where the materials are marked as raw materials (ROH), with reference to the sales order the production order is created and the store issues the material for assembly process and is sent for assembly of materials. After assembly of the materials the inventory is added to the sales order stock as same as raw material and after PGI the billing is done for raw material only.
Please let me know the process of raw material to raw material scenario.
Thanks
Seshi

Hi Seshi,
This question seems to be related to ERP rather than to SAP ME. You'd better post it to ERP-related forum. Please use these instructions to find a proper space.

Batch Traceability for Sugar as raw material during the production process

Dear Colleague ,
I need your support for a traceability issue in a customer on beverage sector
See the case below:
Batch Traceability for Sugar as raw material during the production process
In AMSB the batch traceability in some production processes is very difficult, especially in case of sugar where tanks wherein more than one batches of the same material can be mixed. For example, in a single day almost 17-20 batches of the same material can be mixed and as the result is a composition of water and sugar the normal FIFO rule strategy cannot be applied during the component consumption.
The raw material (sugar) is received in tank S5 at different points of time, and its content is transferred to tank B1 for storage purposes as well as for mix the sugar with other material such as water.
At a specific moment the S5 tank contains only a single batch, while the tank B1 contains more than one batch. Tank B1 is used in order to supply the production line and the corresponding material consumption is triggered in backflush as soon as the production activity is declared (production confirmation). Along with the material consumption the batch determination takes place and a complex algorithm is applied: at a very high level, the single batch is consumed depending on its percentage inside the mix of composition and in case the this
percentage is under a threshold level the current batch should be full used in order to avoid that it will exist for ever.
Moreover, the good movement reversal (reversal of material consumption) and its correction lead to a complete new calculation of all the batches consumed after the original movement date/time. This means that the algorithm for batch determination should be reapplied for all the consumptions subsequent to the original movement.
On the other hand it’s not possible to identify the mix of batches at the exit point of silos B1 because the total consumption of the material in the tank will never happen. As long as the tank level decreases it will be filled up from the tank used for receiving of sugar (S5).
As requirement AMSB needs to post the material consumption starting from EWM, this means that EWM should be the master system in this case and the correspondingmovements have to be transferred to ECC afterwards. This mainly because EWM should guarantee the business continuity in case the ERP system is not available.
AMSB asked if the scenario depicted has been implemented in some customer, in EWM system or in any other SAP solution.

Hi ,
At the time of consumption you can put ' * ' aestrix sign in the batch field.
You will get list of batches of that material.select ur batch and consume the quantity.

DRQ: Different default warehouse for Sales,Purchase and Production Process

Hi Experts,
In my recent Implementation Project I realised that there should be provision of capturing and using different default warehouse for Sales,Purchase and Production.
For example in manufacturing company
1. Default ware house for Purchase process should be QC ware house for raw material.
2. Default ware house for Production process should be RM ware house for raw material (components).
3. Default ware house for Production process should be QC ware house for Finished Good (Parent Item).
4. Default ware house for Sales process should be FG ware house for Finished Good (Parent Item).
I hope the idea is clear, I am looking for 3 different set as default warehouse for each item in Item master Inventory tab.
Internally when a user create a document than default warehouse is to be picked up from this setting !
Best Regards,
Samir Gandhi

Hi !
I guess the indicator "Exclusive" in the accessess of the access sequence can meet the requirement if I have note misunderstood the issue.
Press : F1 help on Exclusive Indicator -
Indicator: Exclusive condition access
Controls whether the system stops searching for a record after the first successful access for a condition type within an access sequence.
Thanks & Regards

BPM 11.1.1.6.0 gets confused in process tracking

Hi,
In my bpm model there are some steps where the same activity is repeated (any number of times) in other words the flow can return to a particular activity many times for example the flow could dictate that the activity "Document Review" was accessed previously 2 times (the first time user1 was assigned and the second time user2) and currently the activity "Document Review" is in progress (assigned to user3). The problem is that if I see the process tracking tab in the section "Open Activities" I can see that the activity name is correct but it appears that bpm gets confused and shows information about the first time that activity was accessed (because the "Assigned to" column shows user1 instead of user3 and and the dates shown are from the the first time that the activity was completed and not from the third one in progress). In the section "Audit Trail" all is correct.
Thanks.

Hello Dan, I made the application with your method. But while I was deploying the bpm project it has some problems.
1. it pops out an authorization request box ask me input the username and password.
2. no matter what I input, it will fail the deployment. and give me bunch of red letters say "Problem in sending HTTP request to the server. Check standard HTTP response code for 401"
3. when I check the weblogic server log messages, it has so many errors like
"BPEL Component "default/PLS_OR1_BPM_ADF_V1!1.0*soa_8ee1b2bc-64a7-4d3b-9fc8-db23ef49e7bf/PLSOR1BPMV1" load FAILED!!"
"Message <.> queryViewTasks(): Failed to get OptionalInformation for task number: 200435"
"Message Illegal call to setup the context of an include that is already in context"
"java.lang.RuntimeException: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "SOAWL_MDS.MDS_INTERNAL_SHREDDED", line 407
ORA-06512: at "SOAWL_MDS.MDS_INTERNAL_SHREDDED", line 603
ORA-06512: at line 1"
My question is
1. are those error is because of the server? or because I set up something wrong in my application?
2. when you say deploy the two ADF UI projects, are you talking about deploy the one has model and the one is viewcontroller?
3. so I will deploy 1 jar file and 3 ear files(one for the bpm project UI, two for the adf UI) total?
Sorry to give you so much questions before thanksgiving, I hope you will have a super sweet thanksgiving!
Sincerely,
Viola

Dropshipt warehouse in production process

Hi.. experts...
Can be involved dropship warehouse in production process?
Regards
Shruti

Dear Shrutiarora,
Can you please give us more information about how you would like to use the dropship warehouse in the production?
The dropship warehouse is normally used when the company does not manage inventory for that item, but receives commission for every order, therefore it is not normally used for productions.
Thank you for your information.

Production process

Hi all,
          my production process go through different stages so i made each stage as component of product now in one stage i issue component(in slots) to different tailors and after completion of process i receive these component in warehouse,if any rejection detected then it again send to same tailor and so on. My question is that how do i mange this process in SAP,i don't want to use add-on, is there any work around for same please suggest me.
Thanks
Rahul

suppose i have product A which go through 3 processes i.e
1. Cutting
2. Stitching
3. Printing
Now i made 3 level BOM and separate warehouse for process like Printing,Stitching and Cutting
1. A
    Printing
2. Printing
    Stitching
3. Stitching
     Cutting
4. Cutting
    Fabric
Now after cutting i have 200 qty now i want to send this 200 qty in 20 slots to 20 tailors ,how do i issue component for 20 tailors and if any rejection detected in any slots then it again send to same tailor for rework.And after that it sent to printing department.Now if i manage it through batch wise then how will i do rework process.

Adding custom column to Process tracking view

I have a requirement that in process tracking screen, some custom column (e.g instruction) should be added so that different processes listed there can easily be differentiated.
I tried to do this change in Workspace through Preferences->Manage Column Headings -> Tracking. But it affects only the Tasks view (Audit tab) for the process and not the initial process tracking screen. I also tried creating a process variable and made it Visible in UI and Searchable so that it is shown in the column heading list. But still that heading does not show up in the initial process tracking screen.
Is there way through which we may be able to customize the column headers for the initial tracking screen?
(The server is Livecycle 8.0.1)
Thanks,
Ashutosh

Not that I'm aware of.
However, we have built an enhanced tracking and enquiry tool that provides a lot more flexibility than the built-in tracking, and is also very easy to configure.

SAP IS-Retail and Production process

hi experts,
i am working on SAP IS-Retail. We have a scenario like our retail client is basically deals with FMCG, Footwear, White goods, Fashion related Items. In these items some of the items are inhouse produced. So in this scenario how can we proceed this Production Process and enter Production Planning in SAP IS-Retail. Whether SAP IS-Retail supports Production Planning and Quality Management. If supports till what extent this supports. If not what is the alternative solution..
Solution needs some what urgent basis...............
if anyone provide a White Paper then also will be appreciated.......
any suggestions also higly appreciated............
Regards
Venkat

Try the following links. These should help. This may not be a completer answer but it should be the official SAP answer that you should communicate to your client.
Standard Functions Used in SAP Retail with Articles ( http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/92/b22aae5a2711d3ae46080009d2232d/content.htm )
Standard Functions Not Supported in SAP Retail ( http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/92/b22ab45a2711d3ae46080009d2232d/content.htm )
Also remember the official SAP recommendation there ,is not to use Articles and Materials in the same application instance.

SAP AII for production process

Hello,
I'm an ABAP programmer but I have to find some information (integration scenario example) about using RFID for managing a production process with SAP.
I found only for SCM:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_autoid40/helpdata/en/43/ec3b1c601f6bf1e10000000a11466f/content.htm
Is it posible to manage a production process with SAP's AII <-> XI <-> ERP like it can be done for SCM?
Thanks.
Traian

Hi Mustata,
   Yes it is very much possible to RFID enable the SAP R/3 Production process.
   AII 4.0 supported out of the box execution of Outbound delivery process and Inbound Delivery process.
   The configuration guide for same are available at this link http://service.sap.com/scm
    you can get the config guide in detailed information of RFID under SCM.
   Now answer to your question SAP AII for production process.
   AII 5.1 supports creation on new document in AII. Also the documents from backend system SAP R/3 sent to AII via XI with the help of standard document interface.
The documents related to production process can be then executed in AII with the help of RFID and after document execution in AII, if required, the document data can be sent to SAP R/3 for completion of the document in backend system.
Hope this answers your query. Do read the configuration guides.
If same process needs to be done in AII 4.0 then customisation will be need to implement the production process integration.
Thanks and regards,
Amit Deshpande

CREATING SERIAL TRACEABILITY DURING PRODUCTION PROCESS IN DISCRETE MANUFAC

We are manufacturing part with serial number identification.
We can identify the history fo material + serial combination only after completing our production and transfer completed part to storage.
We are interesting in creation serial history / traceability during our production process.
WE could not found any solution via Phase confirmation or via Equipment management or even Material movements
We must to know in what operation sereal number exist in real time traceability.
With regards.
B. Betzer

Basically the Serial Number is Unique irrespective of the operation.
That will be carried out through outthe life cycle in the way of particular Material+Serial Number combination
So you can give the Serial Number in the Particular Work Order and Operation
I assume there will be a Marking Machine that needs to Punch/engrave/print the Serial Number and you are interested to give work order to that machine
