Qty field greying out in Sales Order

Dear Gurus,
I already posted one thread as given below:
Status of Sales Order not changing .
I was told that the status of the first OR will never change from 'Open', in the process flow:    OR - OR - LF - F2,    since the Schedule Lines created in the first OR will never be delivered.
We created a new Doc Type 'ZOR' an exact copy of 'OR' and a new Item Category 'ZTAN' an exact copy of TAN and unchecked 'Schedule Line Allowed'. Assigned 'ZTAN' to Doc Type 'ZOR'.
My understanding is now since ZTAN is not relevant for Schedule Lines, this sales order should not create any schedule lines and when this doc type ZOR is referenced to create another order 'OR', the status of 'ZOR' should change to 'Completed' once fully referenced.
But when I created a Sales Order, entering the SP, Material and Quantity and clicked 'Enter', system is giving the Item category as 'ZTAN' but greying out the Quantity field with out any value. Why is this happening?? What am I doing wrong? Please help me out here.
Thanks and regards.

Hi Venkat,
If you will remove the tick mark/ activation from the "Schedule line allowed" check box in the Item category ZTAN, then you can not deliver the item as without schedule line, you can not delivered.
The process is,
Standard order(e.g, OR) -
> Delivery (LF).
If you remove the activation, then system understands that it is not a deliverable item and takes it to grey mode.
If you want to deliver an item physically, then schedule line must have been allowed for it in its Item category level AND that schedule line must have been deliverable at the Schedule line category level ("Delivery relevance" field must have been activated).
Even one of the two condition is missing then you can not deliver an item physically.
For example, In Item category AGN for Quotation, you will find schedule line is allowed but if you will go to its Schedule line category BN, you will find it is not deliverable (the "Delivery relevance" field is blank).
Therefore, even though there is a schedule line for the Quotation item , still we can not deliver it which is logical.
So, use the available field for logical purpose, it will support you. As the fields are available, you can not put any value what you want, it must be logical.
If you want to make blank the "Schedule line allowed" field then copy the Item category "WKN" or "WKC" and from TAN.
Similarly, copy the Contract and not OR for your purpose.
Where as, you can not create a Delivery directly from Contract. So contract items do not require schedule line. Contract is completed by one or more Release orders and Release orders contain schedule line.
The process is,
Contract (e.g, QC, WK1, WK2) -
> Release orders (e.g, OR) -
> Delivery (e.g, LF).
Therefore, in Item category in contract (e.g,WKN , WKC etc) you will find that "Schedule Line Allowed" field is blank.

  • Fix Date & Qty Field in Schedule Lines Sales Order

    Dear Friends,
    I want to understand the need and use of the Fix Date & Qty field check in the sales order -> Item -> Schedule Lines.
    Can anybody explain me the need of the same.
    Regards,
    Harsh

    If the availability check for an item determines that the item cannot be delivered fully on the requested delivery date, and, as a result one or more schedule lines have to be created for later delivery dates, the customer can decide whether to accept these delivery dates and quantities.
    You can record the customer's decision either by setting an indicator in the Fixed date and qty field or by leaving this field blank. The field is displayed both on the schedule line overview screen and on the availability screen.
    <b>Customer Accepts the Schedule Line Proposal</b>
    If the customer accepts the schedule lines which are proposed by the system, mark the Fixed date and qty field. The system then transfers the requirements for the schedule lines to material requirements planning.
    <b>Customer Requires Goods Earlier</b>
    If the customer requires the goods earlier than the date that the system can confirm after the availability check, leave the Fixed date and qty field blank. The system then only passes on the requirements for the requested delivery date and does not take the quantities and dates confirmed by the system after the availability check into account. In this case, it is assumed that the requested delivery date can be kept to because, for example, additional production capacity may become free. The system only confirms the sales order once the entire order quantity can be delivered on the requested delivery date. In the subsequent delivery processing, the sales order is only considered to be completed when the entire order quantity has been delivered or when all partial delivery agreements have been fulfilled.
    A fixed item is considered to be completed once the entire confirmed quantity (which can be smaller than the originally requested order quantity)has been delivered. Therefore, it does not make sense to fix the confirmed quantity to 0 as the item is considered to be completed from the start.
    During rescheduling, the fixed quantities and dates are no longer taken into account.

  • Cost Centre Fields Grey out in PO

    Dear Experts,
    I have one scenario while we create Purchase Requisition with account assignment category K then create Purchase Order with reference of  Purchase Requisition but in PO system allow to change the Cost Center.
    How can i restrict or system not allow to change the cost center or fields grey out.
    Regards
    Aamir

    Dear Aamir,
    The setting of screen layout SPRO>Materials Management>Purchasing>
    Purchase Requisition>Define Screen Layout at Document Level can only be
    done for Account Assignment Category however you are unable to do it for
    Cost Center or G/L account or any other Account Assignment fields.
    The problem is that the field of the subscreen account assignment are
    set under the transaction spro->Mm->purchasing->account assignment->
    maintain account assignment categories. So the functionality you ask for
    is not available.   So in the standard is not possible but you might try to use
    BAdI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. I haven´t try it before, but as far as I can see,
    other customers have used it for a similar purpose.

  • How to find out the Sales order no based on spool no

    Hi Experts,
    Anyone tell me how to find out the Sales order no based on Spool no.
    Thanks and regards,
    Amjad

    Hello Mohammed,
    Please check the following SAP Spool tables for your spool request.
    You will find your required document number as an Object key in these tables.
    TSCMSTAT   --> Field OBJNO
    SOOS           --> Field APPLKEY (Document number will be a part of this key)
    If your document is getting printed by SAP Script, then dont forget to take SCR value in the OBJTP field while searching for your record.
    Thanks and Best Regards,

    Hello Anil,
    The field groups are to be regenerated.
    However, I have done a similar thing and in the past, the layout generation helped me. In the recent example, the name is not reflected as per the interface text.
    Let me know if you find anything on this.

  • I want to make a field grey out in a standard tcode AS02

    Hi Friends,
    Can anyone explain me how to make a field grey out for the standard tcode AS02. I have to make the serial number in that so that no one can change it.
    Let me know the steps, if possible with an example.
    Regards,
    Ramesh.

    Hi Ramesh .,
    in Transaction AS02 which field you want to make Grey out .
    any how i could not find Screen Exit for the Tcode where u can do such type of things .
    if it is with Serial Field You can Validate it with Enhancement : AISA0001 .
    I think SHD0 is for Variant creation for Reporting purpose , But AS02 is an Asset Change Transacttion . i dont think you need to use  SHD0 .

  • PRodn qty to be 2% of sale order

    hi,
    my requirement is that when a sale order for a matrl is created for 100nos,the prodn plan has to be always 2% of the sale order, ie the pld order or a prod order should be 102 nos.
    is this possible in std SAP. If so how?
    regards

    Rishi,
    That is why i wanted to know if there is any system which will boost the pld ord qty by 2% over the sale order qty after MRP run.
    Absolutely, this is standard functionality.  The answer was give to you earlier by expert Sundaresan
    Maintain assembly scrap as 2 % in MRP1 view of the material master , when you run MRP ,System will plan for 102 qty,
    .  However, you rejected this answer, it appeared this did not comply with your business model. 
    This is the business model that has me baffled.  Why would a business invest resources (Raw materials, Labor hours, etc) to physically build 102 pcs, but then tell themselves it only cost M/L/O equivalent to build 100?  If you actually performed the work to build 102, why wouldn't you book the cost for 102?

  • MRP - Sales order and customer fields grey-out

    Hi there,
    The Sales order and customer fields are grey-out for all MRP generated production orders. Can the SAP programmers please get this fixed? It should either read in the sales order number and the customer number or allow user to type in the sales order, just like the manually created production order.
    cheers

    Hello Gordon,
    If production is make-to-order rather than make-to-stock, the MRP should read in the sales order number and the customer, since it is specific to the sales order. Even for make-to-stock production, where it cannot read in the specific sales order number, it should at least not grey out the field, don't you think so? By greying out the field, users are not allowed to type in the sales order number even when the production order directly relates to a particular sales order. As such, we are not able to link it back to the sales order where other info such as customer's purchase order, etc... can be found.
    Could you please advise alternative way of linking MRP generated production orders to the sales orders? thanks

  • Alternative item quantity greyed out on Production order creation

    I'm creating a production order. One of the materials in the BOM uses an alternative, the discontinuation indicator = 1 on material MRP4 view.
    The production order is using the alternative which is ideal, but the quantity for the alternative is greyed out so the quantity cannot be changed? Ordinarily the quantity for a component in a production order can be changed.  Can the quantity field be configured so it changeable for alternatives? Where is the discontinuation indicator configured please?
    Thanks in advance.

    In the production order both the original and the alternative material are listed.  The original item has a blank qty in the field and the alternative has the required qty (greyed out though), say qty 10. 
    If I want to issue say just 8 of the alternative and 0 of the original , why would I enter a qty for the original material?  The shop floor found 2 hanging around so I want to change the alternative qty to 8 if possible, and thats all I wish to issue against this production order.
    Thanks for your help

  • Which field stores the Cancelled Sales Order Status

    Hi,
          I am checking for duplicate PO No in sales Order header VBAK. The criteria is Slaes Order must not be a cancelled one. I am searching VBAK to find the status field to determine the whether its cancelled or not.
    Thank U for Ur time.
    Cheers,
    Sam

    Hello Sam,
    to find out whether a sales order item is cancelled - better rejected - (if it is cancelled there is no VBAK or document any more) you could use the field reason for rejection on item level which is the field VBAP-ABGRU.
