Quality Inspection and COA for 3rd Party Drop Ship Vendor

The scenario is as follows: We will be using a 3rd party vendor to fulfill certain materials directly to our customers. The vendor will be sending us a sample from each production run to run our own analysis against the batch. I am wondering the best way to capture this data against the material and plant? Can we do it per run, capturing the data against a batch or do we have to capture the data per good receipt (in this case statistical)?

Hi Balaji
I create the 3rd party process steps , and i also saw the configuration in the system already done in the past , so i created the sales order but i want item category to be automatically on the sales order , but i am not sure about this. so i tried changing manually and this was the error ...item category ZTAS is not defined for this item.please advise how to fix this

GATP Allocation Check w/ 3rd Party Drop Ship or Make-to-Order

Experts,
For our stocked materials we currently do an allocation check in APO. We now need to do the same allocation check in a MTO (TAB) or 3rd party drop ship (TAS) scenario. However, we are not able to get the allocation check to get accross to APO. We have made the settings to our SL cat. indicating that an allocation check should be performed but its not working.
Is there a setting which we should consider looking at? Or, has SAP assumed that if one does MTO or 3rd party drop ship that supply is unlimited and there is no need to allocate to customers?

Hi,
As far as my understanding in third party drop shiment,there is no need of GATP,

COPA - Third Party Drop Ship Returns - Vendor Discounts

Hello -
This is challenging so I hope some of you can help me please!
Can anyone explain to me how vendor discounts work in copa as they relate to third party drop ship returns? We use net vendor invoices where discount is taken at time of vendor posting and offset by clearing account.
We have several scenarios where we cannot reconcile FI and COPA for COGS account because of the discount on the vendor credit memo.
An example:
We have created the sales order and purchase order for the process. Then we do a migo and a miro from the vendor.
The vendor document has a discount of 1%, so if it costs $100, here is the accounting:
MIGO -
dr. cogs 100
cr. gr/ir 100
miro
dr. vendor discount clearing 1
cr. cogs 1
dr. gr/ir 100
cr vendor 100
then we bill the customer.
Copa at this point gets hit with 99 debit to cogs value field (100 -1 =99)
then we process the customer credit memo request.
Then we process the vendor miro credit.
dr. cogs 1
cr. vendor discount clearing 1
dr. vendor 100
cr. gr/ir 100
At the time the vendor credit memo is posted, sap inserts a new copa line-item on the customer billing document with $1.00 debit to copa.
then we reverse migo
dr. gr/ir 100
cr cogs 100
And then we bill the customer credit memo, which creates another copa document that credits copa with $99.00. why doesn't this create a copa document of -$100. this would help tie out copa and fi.
If you go through and look at all cogs postings on FI side, the credits and debits = 0
If you go through and look at the cogs posting in COPA, the credits and debits = 1
therefore, fi and co don't tie.
please give me any ideas that might help me.

Hi Valerio,
Have you found any solution for your issue?
We have a similar problem with 3rd party drop ship orders and COPA. Cost of Goods Sold Drop Ship is being charged when we use MR11 to clear GR/IR account. This is causing reconciliation issues between COPA and the General Ledger.
Let me know if you have come across any clues?
Thanks.

I am attempting to update students' iPads using the Apple Configurator software. However, information for 3rd party apps, like Notability and Explain Everything, is being lost.

Mike,
If by "still nothing" you mean they are not showing up in the AU manager after reinstalling them....
Im guessing the AU Cache itself is now corrupted so.....
Quit LPX
Open Finder
Press the option key and click "Go" in Finder's menu and select "Library". (This is the User Library and not the System Library and is normally hidden which is why you have to hold down the option key when clicking on Go.... to reveal it in the drop down menu that will appear)
Go to "Caches" dir and remove "AudioUnitCache" dir.
Now Restart your Mac.....
and then Launch LPX and let it rescan your plugins and see if that fixes things....
Fingers crossed...

My bank (Chase) and my wife's payroll provider (ADP) say I can longer pull our statements because of incompatibilities between Adobe Reader and Safari. The Apple site says it is not responsible for for 3rd party software. Adobe says go back to Safari 5.0.

My bank (Chase) and my wife's payroll provider (ADP) say I can no longer pull our statements because of incompatibilities between Adobe Reader and Safari. The Apple site says it is not responsible for for 3rd party software. Adobe says go back to Safari 5.0. Apple dosen't let me download Safari 5.0; so what do I do. The bank had me download Chrome, and I can now download my statements. but what a pain. Any suggestios?

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching

Hi,
We're getting ready to tackle the phenomena known as Java patching, and I was wondering if I could get your personal preference; SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching?
I probably should give a little background on my environment; It's a university atmosphere, so unless it's policy, you have to ask nicely...can't tell people to do things they don't want to; multiple version of required versions of Java for what ever reason,
which need to be identified, grouped together, and then upgrade as much as possible without breaking their old applications.
I was thinking that Application Management probably made more sense where it is more robust, especially for removing multiple installs of Java on a single system, but Software Updates/SCUP looks like it was built for this type of patching, so I'm a bit confused
why SCCM would have two components which essentially did the same thing.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Bill

For Java version management specifically you can already achieve a lot by using the Application Model in CM12.
You can define supersedence between the different versions, just make sure to opt for uninstall of the older version when defining it.

Wht is Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales

wht is Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales

Customize the third party sales in summary:
1. Create Vendor XK01
2. Create Material u2013 Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".
3. Assign Item Category TAS to Order type that you are going to use.
4. A sale order is created and when saved a PR is generated at the background
5. With reference to SO a PO is created (ME21N). The company raises PO to the vendor.
6. Vendor delivers the goods and raises bill to company. MM receives the invoice MIRO
7. Goods receipt MIGO
8. Goods issue
9. The item cat TAS or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and,   therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.
10. Billing      *-- Seema Dhar

ATP for 'Stock in transit' for 3rd Party scenario

We have a scenario:
For warehouse replenishments an STO is created and then a delivery is subsequently created for the STO. Once the delivery has been shipped out of the manufacturing facility (post goods issued) the materials on the delivery are transferred from unrestricted-stock at the manufacturing facility to stock-in-transit at the receiving warehouse. Once the stock is in transit to the third-party warehouses, ATP should then take it into consideration when deliveries are created from the third-party warehouses to customers.
Now how to take the ATP check for 3rd party del. into consideration for STO?
STO document type is UD
Goods issue movement type is 641
Goods receipt movement type is 101

Some useful info here..

BRFPlus - license with NW fundation for 3rd party - SAP PO applies ?

Hi,
I got the impression that in order to use BRFPlus we need to have SAP NW fundation license for 3rd party,
does anyone know, if we have SAP PO (process orchestration) which has a restricted SAP NW fundation license for 3rd party
(to be used only with BPM, PI and BRM), can we use BRFPlus from PI ?
Thank you for any comments,
Regards,
Michal Krawczyk

Hi Michal,
no idea about the licensing question, but I think you need an additional license due to the Java stack, but this has to be answered by an expert of SAP.
Concerning the usage of BRFplus from PI: The only way I know to use the BRFplus functions from PI is via webservices generated out of the functions.
The other way round is a little more comfortable as you can use the BRMS Connector expression.

Procedure for 3rd Party

Dear Experts,
We have some 3rd party vendor from where we purchase FG. And the transaction is like that we give PO to 3rd party. They pack the material as per our BOM provide in mail. Then they supply the material at our stock point and our stock point do the GRN. but in this case we are unable to track the BOM of some products as no production order or SAP activity is done at third end. So kindly confirm me how we should maintain the BOM for 3rd party without plant code generation,
Or else suggest me how to do this transaction in the best way so that at any time we can be able to trace that so as so batches was packed in so and so packing material.
Regards,
Phalgun Patel

Phalgun,
It is unclear to me why you need to 'plan' a BOM for the Vendor. In standard 3rd party processing, all you do is place a PO with the vendor, and the Vendor delivers the product directly to your customer. Batch numbers used are created by the vendor, according to the terms of your contract. You are unconcerned how he internally plans his order, and he never actually sends his output to you. He is solely responsible for procuring any RM or services required to fill your PO, and for fulfilling any batching and traceability requirements contained in the contract. Any Doc you send to him about BOM is not for you to use for planning purposes, it is part of the contract specifications.
So, can you be a little more specific exactly why the vendor is delivering material to you, and why you need a BOM.
Best Regards,
DB49

Third Party Drop ship and availability check against Product Allocations.

Dear All -
We are facing a situation where we need to create a third party drop ship Sales Order with an item category which still reaches out to APO and confirms against the product allocation quantities. This is not supported by standard SAP.
Has anyone come across such a requirement and how has it been handled. I would really appreciate any suggestions.
Regards
Mandar

Vladimir,
I want the drop ship in which when you create SO, before selecting the vendor, system should perform availability check for plants. If material is not available in the plants ( nearest plant) then system should select the vendor who will ship the material to customer directly.

Code Signing for 3rd Party DLLs in MPR certfication

Dear Team,
I am currently performing MPR test with my Web Application using Windows Server 2012 R2 platform.
While verifiying test results, i got failed in the validating digital signature for 3rd party binaries(DLL).
The DLLs are Ajaxcontroltoolkit.dll, interop.Excel.dll etc.,
Whether Signed DLLs are exists for Ajax Libraries?? If Signed DLLs exists for Ajax Libraries, is it advisable to request Microsoft support team for getting Signed DLL through mail? (or)
Can i include this point as a waiver in document during test results submission??
Regarding Interop DLL's is it advisable to include DLL's in waiver request document??
Kindly review and suggest comments

Hello,
When an MPR Test fails due only to 3rd party binaries, please create a Test Results Package, upload to MPR site, complete and send a waiver for review.
List all failing binaries in the waiver, grouping by their respective owner.
Thank you,

End to End Monitoring confiuguration for 3rd party systems

Hi,
I have been trying to racking up materials for end-end configurations for 3rd party systems and can't find any..All the ABAP systems are perfectly configured in our End-End Monitoring system but can't find any of the third party systems..Is there a seperate method to configure 3rd party systems?
-Teresa

Hi Teresa,
You can't include 'Third Party' systems in end-to-end monitoring. We had raised a SAP note for the same and below is SAP response..
"End-to-end monitoring stands for the functionality included as of 6.40 that enables you to track XI messages accross several systems. This functionality can be configured for all components that are able
to contribute information to this process monitoring, i.e. only SAP systems can be configuered."
Also check this from online help..
"The Runtime Workbench receives the data for end-to-end monitoring from the Process Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI), which is an SAP monitoring tool for monitoring end-to-end technical processes involving multiple SAP components."

Moving average update for 3rd Party sales order

Hello All,
We have configured a 3rd party sales order process. The schedule line category is configured with account assignment categoory as "M". when we are creating GR the Moving average price of the material is not getting updated.
But if i replace with "E" it is getting updated, but the CO-PA is not getting generated for Profitability segment reporting.--we need profitability segment reportng.
Can some one tell me how we can update the moving average price using acc. asssignment category type "M" at the same time the Profitability segement information is updated.
THanks in advance
Appreciate your help
Arpita Rani

Hello Arpita
For 3rd party orders functionality you need to use account assignment category of X and not M. E and M are for individual Purchase orders. You should not use them for 3rd party.
Please see the following OSS notes and follow along:
210997 - Accnt assignment categories in third-party and indiv.PO
550388 - FAQ: Customizing of third-party and individual POs
Good luck.
