Pros and Cons not determining / having a Delivery Plant in Sales Order?

Hi Mates
Here I have come-up with one more (weired?) requirement from my client.
We have two plants manufacturing same product and supplying to all customers (some time in same sales order with two different line items).
At the timeof creating a sales order, marketing does't know from which plant the material will move and hence they don't want to fill the Delivering Plant field (VBRP-BUKRS at Shipping tab) for each Item.
They are insisting me to map it as above though I had explained about various pros and cons for not determining a mandatory delivery plant
in sales order like the requirements and shipping stuff.
Yet, yet they want this.
Has anyone come across this kind of requirement before? What best you had done for that?
Can I ask you what are the Pros and cons on not having a Delivery Plant at Sales Order level?
what if I could determine it Delivery level?
Any comments, suggestions, replies and advices are taken humbly.
Cheers
Ajay Kumar Veeranki

Dear Mahulenka
Thanks a lot for the reply. It do have helped me.
Yest it is VBAP-WERKS (typo error ).
Infact I had given the same solution for the issue.
Interstingly, they are insisting on a better solution fit for their requirement. Anyway shall 'highlight' the points again to them try to get it solved
Just wondering has anyone faced the same situation before.
Thanks again for the reply and good luck
Best Regards

  • Ristrict user not to go for delivery with out sale order.

    Hi,
    I need some Help in ristricting the user from entering the Delivery document with any sale order.
    As per the requirement all the documents should run in a proper fassion.
    sale order> Delivery> Invoice.
    Purchase Order> GRPO> Invoice.
    If any change in the flow the user should not be allowed.
    Is there any possibility to implement this can you please help me in doing such.

  • Error Message V1810 - Make to Order No Change delivery plant in Sales Order

    Hello, for a client where I'm setting the flow intercompany , but i have  an error on the Sales Order when I must be change delivery plant.
    Scenario: Make to Order, Product configuration, Sales Order BOM created by  CS60
    Step:
    1 - I create sales order fo company X delivery plant 1000
    2 - Creates Order BOM on plant 2000 Company Y
    3 - creates MRP Planned Order
    4 - Convert Planned Order to Production Order
    For different issues can happen that you decide to ship the goods to a different plant than the X. Production Plant remains 2000.
    If I try to change the plant on the Order system stops me with the following error:
    Message V1810 - Plant can no longer be changed
    Diagnosis
    The plant can no longer be changed in the Following situations:
    The item has been assigned to a project.
    There is a production order for the order item but it is not a staticassembly order.
    Already have accrued costs.
    For the very complex structure of the product I can not delete the production order and sales order BOM.
    How do I handle these cases?
    Can anyone help me?
    Best regards

    Hi Guiseppe,
    can you please answer some questionsa to understand your requirement.
    if you want to transfer the goods from plant to plant you can do it through Stcok transfer MB1B t code.
    1.then why you want to change the plant? in which element you are trying to do in sales order or production order?
    2.you mention it as intercompany and MTO can you be clear for whoom you got the sales order(internal or External Customer?

  • What are the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard?

    My understanding is that Active Data Guard is an additional database option for Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise Edition. I need to know the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard in order to decide whether to get pay extra for the Active Data Guard.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hemant K Chitale wrote:
    Before jumping in to Active Data Guard, one needs to evaluate :
    a. Is there really a need to run queries on the Standby ? The Standby could / should be at a remote site so queries are "across the network". Depending on the nature of the queries and the volume of output, the "performance" of the queries may not seem to be the same.
    b. If the database is not in Maximum Protection mode, the data "seen" at the standby may not be in "real-time" synch
    c. Not all applications are truely read-only when querying. Some applications use "jobs" that write to tables when querying. Such would not work with Active DataGuard. (example : EBusiness Suite). There are very complicated ways of handling this -- and one needs to consider if the complications can be introduced and supported.
    Over the network accessing standby read only is really not an good idea, I think no one will compare performance with primary and standby,
    But some of them they want to validate data which are very critical, as it is matching with primary or not, Its an added advantage with ACTIVE DATAGUARD
    Prior to that until unless stop MRP, open database and then we need to validate, So there is an interruption of recovery, I can say its also an advantage where there is no interruption of recovery.

  • Pro's and Con's of having Single SAP BI System to multiple BI system

    Hi Gurus,
    We are presently in One SAP ECC and One SAP BI landscape for two of our customers belonging to Same Parent Group.
    Now we are implementing SAP for 4 more customers belonging to Same parent group in different SAP ECC system.
    As part of BI solution,these 4 customers chosen the SAP BW as OLAP system, Now can some one explain the pro's and con's of having multiple SAP BI systems to one SAP BI system for all customers.
    Main issue will be the Master data management from all the 6 customers where there are chances that either one or two customers might have same GL account codes or Vendor Keys or Cost centers,which may effect dataloads for their respective Master Data (Attributes, texts & hierarchies) infoobjects.
    If we chose multiple SAP BI systems,is there any product with in Netweaver where we can derive KPI's from each SAP BI system separately and consolidate into one reporting Dashboard's or Scorecards. We may expect some further calculations and formulas in the KPI's from two different SAP BI systems.
    Can some one help us in providing some inputs to the above scenario?
    Thanks & best regards,
    Sudhakar.K

    Suhakar,
    I am not an expert in WAD and Visual Composer, so I will withhold comment.  Your organization may have requirements which push to BO regardless of your underlying BI implementation.
    Yes, the display of text/key can be a small sticking point.  Currently I am working with an SRM reporting scenario where we have objects such as Vendor from many different ECC systems, and the key is compounded with 0LOGSYS.  This makes the key display as ZSRCSYSKEY/ZVENDORKEY.  One workaround, is to put 0LOGSYS on the row of the report, and hide the attribute, as from the user's point of view, they do not care to see which source system the Vendor comes from.
    There would be nothing to prevent you from spawning off separate copies of the BEx query for each source system/group of users, if they have requirements for a slightly different display of data.  But the point is, you can still get a consolidated view of your key figures across all business units if it is modelled into one system, regardless of which UI is used.
    I think regardless of the path you take, there will always be challenges.  I always prefer to address the challenges via modeling, rather than at the UI layer.
    Now however, if you already had separate BW systems in place for each regional business unit, putting a new dashboard tool to pull the data together might be a simpler solution.

  • SAPSPRINT vs Local Printers (Pro and Cons)

    Hi guys.
    Anyone can help me out citing pro and cons by installing a SAPSPRINT over windows vs having printers installed directy over the Iseries Server.
    Its planned to install productive printers which are very critical, so we would like to devise the best approach.
    By installing the SAPSPRINT would avoid the bottlenecks if the printers are installed locally?
    Thanks!

    Hi Markus, nice to see you.
    I agree with the fact that a central print server you can have a better administration of your printers.
    My concern is that based on Note 19706 - Tuning the Spooler, productive printers must never be defined with access type U or S, and all printers created on that print server are type U, which is the recommended access method for remote printers.
    Group 1 (Productive printer):
    All printers with the shortest possible response time.
    For example: Goods receipt/issue sheets, delivery notes, patient entry sheets,...
    Printers with a fast response (Group 1):
    Devices with short response times must NEVER be defined with access type 'U' or 'S'. When a problem occurs (e.g. network problems, PC is switched off etc.), a single printer linked to a work process by access type 'U' disturbs all the connected printers. All printers in this group MUST be linked with access type 'L' or 'C' (depending on the operating system). If they are not linked to the server, they must be defined in the host spooler as "remote printers" and forwarded via the the host spooler.
    So why this note recommends to put printers locally in order avoid network issues and so on, but SAP also recommends a SAPSPRINT as printing solution?
    Does SAPSPRINT overrule any recommendation to local printers and is a definite solution way better than local printing?
    Thanks Markus again

  • Same SID for QA & Prd systems - pros and cons?

    We have the foll systems:
    1. Enterprise Portal 7.0
    2. NWDI 7.0
    3. NW 7.0 (with XECO - Ecommerce)
    4. TREX 7.1
    5. Content Server 6.40
    6. ECC 6.0
    Currently the QA and Prd systems have the same SID and system/instance no, although they are on different hosts.
    We would like to know what are the long term pros and cons for keeping the QA and Prd SIDs the same for all systems.
    We are already making a list, so thought we might as well get more inputs from the community too.
    We already have this arrangement for the past 3 months and have not faced any major issues.
    A couple of cons though:
    1. Cannot use solman as it cannot distinguish between the diff servers with same SID
    2. ABAP transports from QA to Prd have to be manually done (cannot use STMS)
    Thanks
    Prasad

    Hi Manoj,
    Changing the SID of java systems is a very tedious procedure. Hom sys copy is just a part of the SID change...there are a whole lot of configs to be done after that...the task is eq to a new setup of systems
    For once, the efforts put in are huge..you can see there are 5 systems..besides, it will involve coordination from all teams - basis, development, functional, project management.
    Here are a few advantages that we know of:
    1. No efforts reqd to change back to original SID
    2. During disaster recovery, we just have to restore the production database on QA and change the hostname, whereas its not so in case of having diff SIDs
    3. For end-users this will be transparent because they will be using the hostname in the URL which is anyways different
    We have the same SIDs for the past 3 months and have not seen major issues, but we also would like to know from the long term perspective if there are any risks that we have not foreseen...hence we seek help from the community.
    Hope its clear now
    Thanks for your response

  • Using CLOB data type - Pros and Cons

    Dear Gurus,
    We are designing a database that will be receiving comments from external data source. These comments are stored as CLOB in the external database. We found that only 1% of incoming data will be larger than 4000 characters and are now evaluating the Pros and Cons of storing only 4000 characters of incoming comments in VARCHAR2 data type or using CLOB data type.
    Some of the concerns brought up during discussion were:
    - having to store CLOBs in separate tablespace;
    - applications, such Toad require changing defaults settings to display CLOBs in the grid. Default value is not to display them;
    - applications that build web page with CLOBs will be struggling to fit 18 thousand chararcters of which 17 thousand are blank lines;
    - cashing CLOBs in memory will consume big chunk of data buffers which will affect performance;
    - to manipulate CLOBs you need PL/SQL anonymous block or procedure;
    - bind variables cannot be assigned CLOB value;
    - dynamic SQL cannot use CLOBs;
    - temp tables don't work very well with CLOBs;
    - fuzzy logic search on CLOBs is ineffective;
    - not all ODBC drivers support Oracle CLOBs
    - UNION, MINUS, INTERSECT don't work with CLOBs
    I have not delt with CLOB data type in the past, so I am hoping to hear from you of any possible issues/hastles we may encounter?

    Some of the concerns brought up during discussion were:
    - having to store CLOBs in separate tablespace;They can be stored inline too. Depends on requirements.
    - applications, such Toad require changing defaults settings to display CLOBs in the grid. Default value is not to display them;Toad is a developer tool so that shouldn't matter. What should matter is how you display the data to end users etc. but that will depend on the interface. Some can handle CLOBs and others not. Again, it depends on the requirements.
    - applications that build web page with CLOBs will be struggling to fit 18 thousand chararcters of which 17 thousand are blank lines;Why would they struggle? 18,000 characters is only around 18k in file size, that's not that big to a web page.
    - cashing CLOBs in memory will consume big chunk of data buffers which will affect performance;Who's caching them in memory? What are you planning on doing with these CLOBs? There's no real reason they should impact performance any more than anything else, but it depends on your requirements as to how you plan to use them.
    - to manipulate CLOBs you need PL/SQL anonymous block or procedure;You can manipulate CLOBs in SQL too, using the DBMS_LOB package.
    - bind variables cannot be assigned CLOB value;Are you sure?
    - dynamic SQL cannot use CLOBs;Yes it can. 11g supports CLOBs for EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statements and pre 11g you can use the DBMS_SQL package with CLOB's split into a VARCHAR2S structure.
    - temp tables don't work very well with CLOBs;What do you mean "don't work well"?
    - fuzzy logic search on CLOBs is ineffective;Seems like you're pulling information from various sources without context. Again, it depends on your requirements as to how you are going to use the CLOB's
    - not all ODBC drivers support Oracle CLOBs not all, but there are some. Again, it depends what you want to achieve.
    - UNION, MINUS, INTERSECT don't work with CLOBsTrue.
    I have not delt with CLOB data type in the past, so I am hoping to hear from you of any possible issues/hastles we may encounter?You may have more hassle if you "need" to accept more than 4000 characters and you are splitting it into seperate columns or rows, when a CLOB would do it easily.
    It seems as though you are trying to find all the negative aspects of CLOBs and ignoring all the positive aspects, and also ignoring the negative aspects of not using CLOB's.
    Without context you're assumptions are just that, assumptions, so nobody can tell you if it will be right or wrong to use them. CLOB's do have their uses, just as XMLTYPE's have their uses etc. If you're using them for the right reasons then great, but if you're ignoring them for the wrong reasons then you'll suffer.

  • Pros and cons in setting AD domain trust into my AD domain for more than 10+ AD domain and some with same FQDN or label ?

    Hi,
    Can someone please share what is the pros and Cons of trusting AD domain for more than 10 different AD sites into my existing single domain forest let say ParentCompany.com ?
    At the moment I only have one single forest AD domain with the Domain and Forest functionality Windows Server 2003. The main domain controller FSMO role holder is in the Data Center spread across three different VMs running on Windows Server 2008 R2.
    The main/parent company has acquired smaller business chain of 15+ offices in which they have their own Domain Controller and also their own domain, sometimes they also got the same AD domain between them (no trust or whatsoever in those 15+ AD domain).
    Sounds crazy but yes, there is no standardization in them or whoever manage their IT infrastructure previously.
    I'm now considering what are the benefits of creating the AD domain and trust versus importing those AD objects into my domain and then decommission them.
    No need to worry about Exchange Server since all of the user in those sites connecting to the RDS to my ParentCompany.com terminal servers.
    My requirements or goal are as follows:
    1. Simplify the AD domain structure & maintenance
    2. Try to avoid the disruptions of the user in terms of downtime and selecting multiple different domain everytime they login to their PC or SharePoint sites.
    any kind of help and suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    AD sites into my existing single domain forest let say ParentCompany.com ?
    I think you mean 10 AD domains.
    Managing multiple domains can be difficult for administration. I usually recommend using a single domain in a single forest with OUs to separate resources whenever it is possible.
    However, if you can't do that then you can simply create trust relationships between your domains. The advantage is that you can enable access to resources to different domains. I do not see cons here.

    I would recommend consolidating your domains into a single one. ADMT is a migration tool that you can use. The advantage would be the ease of administration. Also, by having multiple DCs for the same domain across sites, you will take benefit of High Availability

  • Neptune for UI development Pros and Cons

    Hi ,
    we are evaluating neptune for UI development for what are the pros and cons of using neptune.
    i see only that webdynpro abap developer can be easily moved to neptune , some javascript knowledge is still required.
    some question
    1) can neptune make calls to odata services ? do that requires code in javascript or ABAP
    2) any accelerators provided by neptune  like for workflow scenarios , list and details .
    3) can sap standard fiori apps extensibility  or modification is possible through neptune
    4) security if its accessing business functionality directly
    regards
    Yashpal

    Hi Yashpal,
    I will give you my view, but as Robbe says I work for the company and other SAP developers like DJ Adams has other development tool preferences than me ( I call his Sublime Text development spaghetti coding and he sees Neptune as a crutch that restricts a developer's freedom but this is just a friendly point-of-view discussion and I have promised him a beer in Walldorf next time our paths cross there)
    So the important message is that SAP has opened up their platform for different development tools and it is now a choice for the individual developer or SAP customer. This is a fantastic move by SAP and I think a bit overlooked by the community, Look at the new Xamarin partnership as an example (and yes they are a competitor, but I did mention them )
    Now the pros of Neptune are in my opinion:
    ABAP developer friendly development (removed 90% of JavaScripting needed)
    Connected to the SAP transport System (Software Logistics as is)
    Drag Drop designer that gives structured code (easy for a new developer to take over code, compared to the spaghetti provided by DJ <-  I'll need to buy a few extra beers for that remark)
    Native json communication provided by the Neptune Server (you can argue all you want about Odata, our solution is more flexible gives incredible performance and superb and easy to use offline capabilities)
    Integration with Adobe build, use an SAP program to generate hybrid apps  (The average ABAP developer does not install cordova and build hybrid apps - with Neptune he/she does)
    Integration with SMP. Automatic connection with the REST API's of SMP both on-premise and in the Cloud
    Reduced time to market. One of the largest SAP implementation partners in the Nordics stated that Neptune reduced development time by 80%
    Free templates (Advanced templates such as fully functional PM, HCM, SD templates are available Experience | Neptune Software  <- sorry for the marketing but you did ask)
    UI5, all of the other third-party tools (Not SAP tools like App Builder, Eclipse etc) uses non UI5 frameworks. I personally believe that SAPUI5 (UI5) is the future of SAP UX and thus it only makes sense to keep a common and future-proof framework.
    Network crunching. We optimize all networking. Which makes sense for mobility.
    no extra infrastructure needed - it is a certified add-on and takes 15 mins to install.
    Works with most versions of SAP. We even have alot of customers using 4.7 (we need the ICF so nothing lower). This is something the community often forgets. Yes it is cool to play with the latest Netweaver release, but do our customers have that installed?
    Cons (woot!)
    Cost, even if Neptune is very affordable it still requires license for productive usage (free for developers though - and hey we need to live as well ) So custom coding  is cheaper in respect to license (but not in TCO in my opinion)
    Generated code, even if we have added as much freedom to code custom JavaScript as possible there will always be restrictions in generated code compared to notepad. (But I haven't met an issue that couldn't be solved by custom coding in the Neptune Application Designer yet)
    Other backend systems. Neptune is based on ABAP and as such it obviosly works best with an ABAP backend.
    .... (Add stuff from other non Neptune ppl )
    Regarding your questions:
    1. Yes you can use Odata, best way is to consume it on the ABAP level, but you can of course consume it through JavaScript as well (Not recomended by me)
    2. Yes see above (free templates and also premium templates by our partners)
    3. No you can't modify a fiori app with Neptune, but the two solutions work perfectly together (You can add Neptune apps in the Fiori launchpad) One of our partners have created an RDS solution based on both Fiori and Neptune.
    4. Neptune is an add-on to Netweaver and as such has no extra security in itself beyond that (And we seek not to do that). But we support any security you wish to add on top. I strongly advice having a look at the SAP Secure offering (App protection and MDM)  as well as SMP (also the new Cloud edition which gives easy affordable protection for your backend)
    So that was my very biased answer

  • Approach for O365 mails (pros and cons of both)

    Hi Team - What is the right approach to access seamless, flawless emails of O365 in our laptops having Mavericks OS and MailMail . Is Office 2011 for MAC the right choice or should we stick to native MailMail for O365 mails (pros and cons of both).
    We attempted with native messaging client but are facing lots of issues related to synchronization, delay, missouts etc...  & we are not sure if we shift our users to Office 2011 for MAC, that will fix up the issues.
    Please advise..

  • Pros and Cons of upgrading GT60 RAID0 to SSD and HDD

    I purchased a GT60-0NCR-002US from Amazon last fall and am thinking of upgrading the HD set up.
    Currently it has 2 500gb drives arranged in a RAID0.
    I'm considering upgrading this to a 256GB SSD and a 1TB HDD and am curious to get some feedback about the pros and cons of doing this.
    I'm assuming this setup would be considerably faster than the current one since I'd have the OS and all program files on the SSD. I'm not sure whether the 7200rpm 32gb cache HDD would be faster or slower than the current RAID0 but since this would only contain my documents and media, I don't think it's of that much concern.
    Another question I have is how I'd go about getting Windows back on the system after replacing the hard drives. Could I reinstall an image of the current OS or would the fact that I'm changing the hard drive set up make that impossible?
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Quote from: joshsayers on 23-May-13, 09:18:47
    I just noticed on the original Amazon page where I bought the computer that the rpm of each 500GB disk is 7200. Considering they are in a RAID0 format, wouldn't I then be sacrificing speed going to one 1TB 7200rpm drive?
    Maybe the decrease in speed for the data/media HDD would be more than compensated by having the OS and all software run off an SSD drive, though...
    Regarding the re-installation of Windows: yes, I have the backup disk here. So it would just be a matter of re-installing on the SSD drive before the regular HD was installed? I called MSI help and asked them about this and the guy told me that because I would be going from RAID0 to two separate HDDs that this would affect the BIOS and thus the original Windows backup disk would be obsolete. Any truth to this?
    The SSD + HDD will be much better overall. For media, does it really MATTER how fast it is? In all honesty, not really. The SSD makes everything else snappy, so what if you have to wait an extra 10 seconds when you copy a movie over and stuff? I wouldn't care, overall the laptop will FEEL much faster, and it generally will be.
    There is SOME truth to what he said. You will have to change the bios to go from a RAID to AHCI or IDE (AHCI is preferred, but it may not work....I'm not sure). THAT much is true. The restore disk should work as usual though. It doesn't care WHERE it gets installed at, just that it gets installed. Atleast, it didn't matter for me.

  • Pros and Cons of Turning CE On or Managment Of Global Employees.

    Hi Guys,
    We have a requirement where we have to deal with the employees those holds two jobs, those can be in a different country or within the same country. We have a option to go with concurrent employment or we can go towards the old functionality of managment of global employees concept. My Question here is very specific to what are the pros and cons in both the scenarios. If some one can elaborate it a little or any documentation is available to compare both the plans.
    Any answers would be highly appreciated. Thanks
    Regards.

    Hi Hassan,
    We are currently working to implement Management of Global Employees (MGE). 
    Check out http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/22/e15a287d14f74c853f4bf8ab5fd4b1/frameset.htm and http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/a8/3300b1e299cd4c9fa78c8ad4aab007/frameset.htm
    for details.
    Remember, before implementing by activating CCURE GLEMP or CCURE MAINS, you must contact Michael Wulf at SAP via an OSS Note. 
    MGE is the functionality to handle various assignments between countries for employees so that the employee could be paid and/or have benefits in each country.  It also enables additional infotypes to track the preparation and process of the global assignment. 
    Concurrent Employment (CE) is designed so that one individual can have multiple assignments within one country, with different pay rates, benefits, etc.  Example is a school administrator who works 40 hours and then at night is an adjunct instructor for the school.  If concurrent pay is activated, that individual could be processed in two different payrolls at different pay dates, but the system knows it is one person for taxes, SSN deductions, etc. 
    So really CE and MGE are two different functionalities to meet different requirements, but they each utilize the same foundation - the Person ID and an individual having more than one PERNR.

  • What are the Pros and Cons while joining tables at DF and Universe level

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to Data federator designer. I need help on the below.
    Could you please let me know the Pros and Cons while joining the source tables in data federator
    And While joining the DF target tables in universe designer.
    Regards,
    Gana

    Hi,
    1. I have created target tables based on source tables with one to one mapping and then join all target tables in universe.
    Ex: Source tables: Infocube text tables, fact tables and 3rd party data base table
    Target tables:Target tables are same as source tables
    --- Yes this is the way to create target Tables  and join them in the universe.These target Tables gives you the flexibility  like in future your requirement is to add one more object based on some calculation which is not possible in the universe so that time you can create  one more column in the target table and do the calculation. at the same time if you are using source table you can not do anything.
    2. Created single target table with all objects of source tables and merged all sources tables data.
    Ex: Source tables: Infocube text tables, fact tables and 3rd party data base table
    Target table: Single table.
    --- This is bit complex structure to merge all tables data in the one target table.in this situation you have to put more efforts and it is more complex.basically this type of target table is useful when you are merging data by multiple source into single  or  creating one target table based on the  union of tables by adding two mapping rules or more and you can not join tables in universe.
    Better approach is first 1. create target tables based on the source tables and join them in the universe.
    Thanks,
    Amit
