Purchase of spares

Dear All
I have a requirement to purchase spare parts for my plant,
The problem is the part number of the spare part is different for different vendor
how do i maintain material number for same part with different part number supplied by vendor.
example:
The part number for eg shaft is X for vendor 1, but for the same Shaft the part number is Y for vendor 2, now how do i maintain different part number for the same matereial,
Suggestion will be worth appreating.
Regards
SARFRAZ

Dear Anji
I purchse a spart part called shaft from a company X, the manufacturing no is 001, which i have to maintain in my SAP to order the materail Shaft,but if the same shaft is purchased from a different vendor who has a different manufacturer than it has a different manufacturer number eg 002, so how do i maintain two different materail numbber for same materail.
if it is manufactured by 3 different vendors than do i have to maintain 3 materail master...
there should be some means by which i can maintain vendors materail number.

Spare hard disk tray and rubber stops for X201

Hi
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X201. Due to the nature of my work I am frequently required to boot up from a variety of operating systems. Recently, to protect integrity of the OSes, I moved out Ubuntu onto a spare HDD so now I have two hard disks - one that boots into Windows 7 and another that boots into Ubuntu. The problem is that if I connect the Ubuntu hard disk via USB for bootup, it is death slow and I have had instances where the hard disk developed bad sectors because the USB cable came loose and disconnected the drive. The only other option I am using currently is to manually swap the internal HDDs every time I need to change OSes. I was wondering if I can purchase a spare hard disk tray with its rubber mounts so that all I need to do is unscrew the hard disk bay cover (one screw) and swap the drives rather than have to unscrew the entire assembly and then screw it onto the other HDD repeatedly.
Could somebody please provide me with an FRU number for the entire SATA HDD assembly (minus the HDD itself of course but including the rubber rails).
Thanks

Spare part accounting

Hi Friends,
We have requirement for spare parts.
When creating purchase order, the purchasing associate will determine if unit codt of spare parts and select respective GL account in sap system :
If the spare part value is :
Above 5000 USD then item should be capitalized :
Fixed asset
To Accounts payable account
In case withing 5000 USD
Current asset -
To AP account
Purchase of repaired item: GL would be same like purchase of spare part . Price would be same as repair price.
Can you please help me on this ASAP .

Spare Parts on consignment at no cost during warranty period

With new equipment being installed, several vendors have agreed to provide us with spare parts on a consignment basis without any consumption cost during the warranty period. When the warranty ends we'll either purchase the spares or return them to the vendor. Is there a standard SAP process for these parts? I've look into consignment processing but did not find a clean way to do this without an accounting entry. We are on ECC 6.0.

Jody,
Try asking the same question to the [Materials Management|SAP ERP - Logistics Materials Management (SAP MM); guys.

No batteries for Nokia Lumia 710?

I am in Perth, Western Australia and I am one unhappy customer
Last Friday I went to Battery World to get a spare battery for my new Nokia Lumia 710 as I'm travelling overseas.
They don't have them. I phoned JB HIFI as I bought the phone from them. They don't have them. On Saturday I phoned Nokia Care. They said they had a shop at Morley (quite a distance from me).They also said go to JB HIFI (I told them they don’t have batteries), **bleep** Smith, Harvey Norman or Telechoice. I went to each of these, they don’t have them and never have, nor did they give any indication that they ever would have them.
I went to the Telstra Shop. The chap kindly looked up the address for Nokia Customer Care here in Morley, Perth, Australia – he commented that I could not phone them because their phone number was no longer on the website. Therefore there was no way of my checking that they had a battery before I went there. I drove quite a distance to Morley. When I eventually found the business I was greeted with Business Hours 09:30 to 17:30 Monday to Friday.
When I returned home I phoned Nokia Customer Care. I told them I had driven to the business and it was shut and it would have been nice to have been told that before I drove there. They told me that’s quite right they are not open on Saturdays. I was once again told to go to JB HIFI, **bleep** Smith, Harvey Norman, Telechoice. I told them they had already told me that and I had already established and told Nokia Customer Care that they did not have batteries and never had them.
I was told they would send through a query (?to God) and I would receive an SMS in 24-48 business hours as to whether there was a battery available at Nokia Customer Care. Today I received a voice mail telling me that there are no batteries available at Nokia Customer Care at Morley. Once again I am told to go to JB HIFI, **bleep** Smith, Harvey Norman, Telechoice.
I feel like I have been sold a phone for which there are no batteries. With every other mobile phone I have owned I have always had a spare battery, especially when travelling overseas. No wonder it was “cheap”.
I am now faced with travelling overseas with a phone for which there is no possibility of purchasing a spare battery.
I sincerely hope that no-one is buying these phones to run their business with.
I am extremely disappointed and I would advise that nobody purchases this product. Which is a shame since I was happy with the product. It simply never occurred to me that there were no replacement batteries for this product. If I had known that I would not have purchased it.

Hi rednomad,
Thanks for your contribution and thanks for posting.
Sorry to hear you are having a hard time finding an additional battery for your Lumia 710. The Lumia 710 uses the BP-3L battery which should be available through any Nokia Care Point. A list of Nokia Care Points in Perth can be found here. If the battery is not available they should be able to order one for you.
Also if you search for 'Nokia Lumia 710 Battery BP-3L' on the web you will find a number of sources within Australia which will be able to provide you with this battery model. Make sure though you buy an original Nokia battery.
Hope this helps,
Kosh

How to handle this kind of scenario in SBO

Hello, I am new to SAP Business One. I would like to know how to handle Transporation Company scenario below in SBO.
QUESTION 1: A transportation company has 30 truck. The company receives orders from the customer and use the trucks to deliver the goods from Point A to Point B everyday. The cost for delivery is $0.50 per-KG.
The way I handle above:
1. In ITEM MASTER DATA:
Create a new item > Item Type: Labor > Description: Delivery from Point A to Point B > and determine the delivery price is $0.50.
2. Use the item created in no 1 above when creating Sales order/Invoice.
If the weight is 5000kg then simply put QTY 5000 in Sales Order with the price of $0.50/KG, which has been set in Item Master Data.
Is the above method correct or there is better way to handle?
QUESTION 2: TRACKING EACH TRUCK EXPENSES BY ITS LICENSE PLATE:
Each truck has Spare Parts expense (e.g. bulbs, oil, battery, tires etc) that the company would like to track.
The company purchased the spare parts from suppliers and keep it in the warehouse. When a truck needs to replace its spare parts, the company will issue the parts and record it under that truck's license number as that truck's expense.
The goal is SBO must be able to provide detail monthly expense report for each truck when inquired by its license plate. I prefer NOT to manually input "directly" in Journal Entry to prevent error.
Thanks.

Hi,
welcome to sbo forum!
For your question 1, it will depend if you will only have 1 route for all of your deliveries.If your point of origin is always point a then destination is point B w/ price of $0.50,then you are right with your process... but if you will have to expand and move into different places, i think it will best for you to create a UDT for your pricing.
in summary:
1.create UDT pricing(with origin,destination and price)
2.Create UDF in row level of Sales order(U_origin,_U_destination)
3.) create FMs for your Sales order Origin and destination based on UDT Pricing table.
4.) create automatic fms for your price( based on origin and destination selection).
for question 2, all your repairs and maintenance will pass through AP invoice( either by item or service). in our country we normally use Ap service,since a truck has normally several types of spare parts. This figures will will surely add up to the number of item master data record in your system ,since you will need create a unique item for each and every item available.
-To monitor all your expenses, you will need to create a UDF in the header of PO, GRPO or AP invoice, place your plate number here. so that when you extract your reports, you will easily identify your expenses per truck.
in summary:
1.create UDF for header of PO,GRPO or AP( Udf_Plate number) you can set valid values for you udf or by FMS with default values.
2.Create Udf for lines of PO,GRPO or ap(UDF_spare part type) --note: if you will use the Item type document for repairs and maintenance then i guess you dont need to add UDF_spare parts.
Hope i was able to help you.

Help me match my wants/needs to a Droid, please.

I'll be eligible to buy a new phone in a month or so. Thought I'd better start figuring out what I want now. Here's how I currently use my phone and what (I think) I want my new phone to do.
I currently have an LG enV Touch with mobile web. I use it constantly to check my web based email, update Facebook, read the news & weather. I like to text, send pictures to friends, take video and take quality pictures with my phone. I like using the touch screen qwerty keyboard and rarely open my phone to use the physical button keyboard.
I'd like to be able to store and listen to music on my phone, which I can do now. Also, a friend listens to some cool radio stations on his Droid, would I download an app to do that? Can the Droid be hooked up to external speakers similar to an MP3 player?
I have a portable GPS device in my car, what's the advantage to using the Droid's GPS?
Is there a Droid phone that can be used to connect a laptop to the internet? If so, does the laptop require any certain type of wireless card or something else to make this happen? I'm also in the market for a new laptop so this information would be helpful as I shop for that.
I'd like the ability to use some nifty apps but I don't want to spend a lot of money every time I download something. Are there lots of cool free apps available for Droid users? And about how much do the non-free ones cost? Are we talking $5? $20? $1? I have no idea. Where can I go now to see what is available? Is there just one central place to find applications?
Battery life is a concern based on what I've already learned about the Droid phones. Is it logical to purchase a spare battery and change them out as needed?
I'm tough on phones. Is the Droid more delicate than most others or about the same? I've dropped my enV Touch many times and it's still working fine. Obviously, I'd buy a protective case for it. What types are available that are the least intrusive while using the phone?
So... which Droid is right for me?
Gosh, that's a lot of questions, any advice is appreciated. Looks like I may also need to make a visit to the Verizon store and start playing with phones.

If you don't use the keyboard then I'd stick with the "candybar" style phones like the Moto X, or Incredible. Both have built it radio tuners, mp3 players, audio out jacks, and plenty of free apps for all categories. Most apps are a dollar or two. Think the most I've spent is 6 bucks on a really nice mp3 player that does way more than the stock one. Besides, even if you don't like an app you paid for you get 24hrs to get a refund. Apps are searched on the phone program called Market. You can't miss it.
Hooking up to a laptop or other device is possible by tethering, and hotspot. Both are priced out on your plan as options.
Battery... power power power is the name of the game. Light to moderate users can slide for a day. Heavy web browsing, downloading, gps, music... a few hours to a third of a day. I'd suggest putting the money aside and plan to get one. Mandatory purchase? No, but the more you use that thing that's all you'll want. Grab a case and don't drop these puppies. These things are durable but not as much as the old phones from a few years ago. And, the days of battery life going for 3-5 days uncharged are gone too.
Finally, gps.... its great! Very smart and handy. Turn by turn like a garmin. Short story; my check engine light came on while driving on vacation. I needed to figure out what was wrong fast, and in an area that I knew nothing about where the closest help could be. I quick grabbed my phone, opened the maps app, typed in autozone, it found the closest one and directed me right to it! It took all of 2 min to type and reach my destination with a picture of autozone on my phone when I was within a block or so. I gained a whole new respect for my phone that day. It literally saved the day!
BTW nothing serious wrong with the car.
And I'm rocking the incredible. But all droids have Google maps app.
Happy hunting!

Which table can we see consumption and forecast values in forecast based planning

Dear SAP Gurus,
I am working on implementing forecast based planning for Spare parts for my client. They have one Main Plant which do purchase of Spare Parts and through Stock transfers moved to 60+ Plants from where Spares are being sold.
Now I am carrying out SAP trial runs for a set of 160+ materials with various models and want to compare with their existing methodology of requirement calculation.
I want to compile Consumption and Forecast data month wise for these trial materials (160+ materials in 60 Plants) . One way I thought is to go individual Material Master and looks for values in Forecast view. However it is tedious and time consuming.
The table name shows RMCP2 and RM03M for forecast and Cons values, but I could not find the table.
Hence I want to know which table if I can view I can get the consumption and forecast data calculated for quick copying and compilation.
Thanks and Regards,
R.Velmurugan.

Dear Mariano,
Thanks for your valuable inputs.
Like I could able to get the consumption values for materials using table MVER and fields GSV01,GSV02 etc.,
What field I need refer in table PROP for getting forecast values.
As such I could not see any column where in data are similar to Forecast view.
Thanks and Regards,
R.Velmurugan.

Pricing for Domestic , imports and service

We have following scenarios:
Domestic purocurement.
1. Purchase of Consumables, Excise duty credit taken (Cenvetable)
2. Purchase of Spares, Excise duty credit taken (Cenvetable)
3. Purchase of Services, Service tax credit taken.
4. Purchase of Consumables, NO Excise duty credit
5. Purchase of Spares, NO Excise duty credit
Imports.
1. Purchase of Consumables, Import duty credit taken (Cenvetable)
2. Purchase of Spares, Import duty credit taken (Cenvetable)
3. Purchase of Consumables, NO Import duty credit
4. Purchase of Spares, NO Import duty credit
I am thinking to have a pricing Procedure for Domestic, one for Imports and one for Services.
could you please explain procedure as i go correct or not

Hi,
Note required three Pricing Procedures ieu2026u2026 Domestic, Imports and Services as two Pricing Procedures is enough as per your above procurement processes u2026ieu2026 Domestic, Imports .You can have a condition type for service and insert in both procedure which triggers ONLY when material not there in purchasing document.
Regarding CENVAT credit or adding to inventory A/C, you can very well controlled with individual tax code creation with separate condition type for each ( like for example: JMIP: BED inventoried and JMOP-BED Setoff) by using tax procedure( TAXINN or TAXINJ).

Display & Charging Problem - X220

I have the i7 X220. It's been great, but I'm starting to have a few issues. Just want to get some feedback in case there's something simple I need to do before contacting service and probably sending it in for repair (it was purchased March 2010).
1) Display is great 98% of the time, but I notice that the colors go off - a bit day glo/neon, if I move the laptop while it's on and in use. This used to be just if I walked across the room, now it happens sometimes even if I just move it from my lap. The same thing occurs sometimes after I've been using it for a while. Wondering if it's heat related or if I have a loose connection somewhere. Note that it generally goes right back to good if I refresh the display.
2) A more serious issue - I've had charging problems with this laptop off and on for the last few months. I purchased a spare power supply and battery, and I noticed that it seemed to charge fine with the newer power supply, but was random with the old one. Batteries didn't seem to make a difference. Today, once again I can't get it to charge at all - with either power supply or battery.
You're thinking, "Well just send it in for service." That's probably what I'll have to do, but these tend to be random issues, and I've not had good luck with repairs in the past when that was the case. So, just trying to get some background and see if these are known issues.
Thanks.

hey shazza,
for #1 , i'm guessing a loose cable is causing this since it happens when you move the unit. If you want, use this >> http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/guides-and-manuals/detail.page?DocID=UM006464
open your unit and ensure all cables is connected correctly.
another thing you can try is to uninstall the current graphic driver for your unit , let windows install its generic drivers and see if it happens again.
now for #2 , that is something I will have to say send it to service. I have not seen that happen before.

Is there a mount kit for an esw-520

Hi,
I have a customer that has 'lost' their mount kit for the switch. Is there a way to purchase a spare set?
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
Mounting kits some with a new product or a RMA (replacement ) product. I am not aware of a p/n you can order for spare rack mounts.

Pxi 2575 high resistance

I am having problems with the resistance across relays on a PXI-2575 increasing over time (faster than expected). I am using a PXI-2575 in combination with a PXI-4070 for manufacturing test. In some cases I am looking for an expected short circuit. The data sheet states that with no voltage applied (which I have none) I should see < 1 ohm for up to 2.5 million cycles. However, I am seeing upwards of 16 ohms across a particular relay after ~2500 cycles in many cases. I have a total 6 of these setups, and I am finding myself replacing PXI-2575 cards after less than 1 year of service due to these high resistances.
To prove to myself that it is the switch matrix (after measuring the UUT with a Fluke DMM) I used the following setup:
PXI-4070 DMM
PXI-2575 Switch Matrix
LFH200 Cable
24 awg wire
The PXI-4070 is configured for a 2-wire resistance measurement. The PXI-2575 is configured as a 95x1 2-wire mux. The DMM + terminal is connected to pin 46 of Backshell 0 (CH22+) and the - terminal is connected to pin 47 of Backshell 0 (CH22-). A small 24 awg jumper wire is used between pins 23 and 34 of Backshell 3 (COM+ and COM-). On a brand new switch matrix I see ~0.16 ohms using this test. On the most recent one I pulled out of production use, I saw ~16 ohms initially, with it falling to ~5 ohms after leaving it connected for about 5 minutes.
I am up to 4 PXI-2575 cards that suffer from this issue. According to the data sheet I should not be seeing this. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jonathan Rice

Thanks for the reply. I have done some more testing as you have asked. I realized I actually have 11 PXI-2575's, recently purchased 2 spares, and 3 more for new test equipment. They are all used in an identical manner.
We have made a total of 3 purchases. The first was for 6 PXI-2575's, the next was for 2 (spares), and the final was 3. With all of the swapping around, I am not sure where these failing ones came from at the moment, other than to say they were not part of the most recent purchase of 3. I am more than happy to provide serial numbers, if you can tell me which of the stickers on the board is the serial number. There are two identical looking stickers, one on each of the boards, that have different serial numbers on them.
Below is the data I have collected. Cards 5 & 6 can be considered "good" cards. Note that their readings did not change from their initial readings. They are from the most recent batch. We have no examples of cards with lots of cycles on them that do not exhibit this behavior. Prior to attempt 1 the cards had been powered off and removed from chassis anywhere from days to months. Between attempts 1 and 2 several switch cycles were performed and power was cycled on the PXI and the PC.
*All readings are in Ohms.
Below is a diagram of the setup I am using to test the switch matrices after they fail in the field.
Installing a new PXI-2575 immediately resolves the issue in the test set, and that test set continues to work for another several months.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Mac Aluminum keyboard VOLUME KEYS not remapping

So I bought a new full size aluminum keyboard from apple. Totally great design, except that the volume keys are perplexing me. Apple, in its infinite wisdom, has moved the volume keys to F10, F11 and F12, instead of above the keypad where they used to be.
There's apparently no way I can figure out how to move these volume keys back to the old places which are easier to use.
But even if they couldn't move, the big problem I'm having is when I use Final Cut Pro. I map the function keys F1 through F9. However, I CANNOT map any of these keys unless I check the keyboard control panel box to use the function keys as "standard function keys". This is great except that when I check this, I can no longer adjust the volume with the volume keys without holding down the "FN" key. I adjust the volume a LOT while working with video. So holding the FN key each time to adjust or mute the volume is VERY VERY ANNOYING.
So here's the question, is there a solution to this or are the Apple Engineers giving their users the middle finger? I've called Apple and they have no answers. Awesome.
Thanks,
Frustrated

I had another unrelated keyboard problem that gave me a tiny bit of information.
(QPI would not connect to keyboard on start and restart, Apple updated the SMC to fix this problem but only on the new Ash Can Mac Pros, older Mac Pros are simply out of luck)
In this process I was shipped a replacement keyboard for free as a troubleshooting test.
I was sent the wrong keyboard as luck would have it.
In this case the wrong keyboard was the "A" model and my Mac Pro uses the "B" model.
The tiny bit of information I received is that Apple defines the "A" model as "Keyboard, Extended, Wired (2007)" and the "B" model as "Keyboard, Extended, Wired (2011)".
This can be helpful.
You can contact Apple and request the 2007 model as a replacement part.... OR.... use the serial number from an older Mac and request a replacement keyboard.
This will allow you to purchase a spare "A" model. ($50-$60)
(it also helps to know the model number of the keyboard but not much because Apple does not seem to have that as a reference)
How long the 2007 model will be available requires a crystal ball but we can bet that it won't be around forever.
The writing is on the wall.
DID YOU KNOW?
You can no longer purchase a compatible Apple Monitor for ANY Mac Pro previous to 2013.
Since the new model keyboard is incompatible (or nearly) with older machines and there is no Apple monitor compatible with older machines, the writing on the wall says.... you MUST purchase a new Mac if ANY peripheral fails.
(management calls this.... "doing good business")
To answer your question.
If a peripheral fails and your computer is still fully functional, you are out of luck IF.... you did not buy compatible spares when they were available.
I certainly did. (I bought both original keyboard and aluminum "A" model spares as well as three 27" DisplayPort monitors.... Displayport monitors work with Thunderbolt machines - Thunderbolt monitors do Not work with DisplayPort machines.... its One-Way Street)
