Quantity reduced in PO confirmations

Hi,
My problem is that I cannot understand the logic of reduced quantites for PO confirmation when we deal with combinations of partial GRs and partial confirmations.
We use confirmation control key 0001 with AB order acknowledgement (MRP rel, not GR rel, no GR ***) and LA shipping notification (MRP rel, GR rel, no GR ***).
We have 2 cases:
1. GR to WM warehouse
GR is always done through delivery and LA is used. If we have partial AB, then it is reduced by the GR if the AB delivery date is earlier than the PO schedule line. If AB date is the same or later than schedule line delivery date then the schedule line quantity is reduced and AB is not reduced. This is logical and it works like described in the note 75495 - always the earliest MRP element is reduced.
2. GR to non-WM warehouse
GR is done without delivery and there is no LA. In this case no matter what is the delivery date for AB, the AB is ALWAYS reduced with GR. The schedule line is never reduced, even if it is earlier than AB. And this is a mistery for me because it is not according to the note 75495.
I have configured a new confirmation control key with only order ackowlededgment AB (MRP rel, GR rel, no GR ***) but in this case also always the AB is reduced even though the schedule line has earlier date.
Can somebody please explain this to me?
We would like to program upload of order acknowledgments from file and the mixed logic is a problem.
By the way, could you please advise the best way to upload order acknowledgments AB? As far as I understand from documentation EDI is only suitable for LA upload.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Ewa

Hi,Ewa:
Please check out SAP note 75495 which talks about the reduction logic in confirmations. Hope this will solve your queries.

What is the significance of Quantity reduced in confirmation tab of a PO

I have a PO created for a foreign vendor.
after creating a PO ibd is done and then GRN.
after GRN user found that he prepared grn against wrong IBD so he cancelled all the GRN he preapred and creates new grn.
Now in po The open quantity showing as 85 Tons but while creating GRN it is taking only 20 tons.
After putting all my efforts i found that the difference in the quantity reduced column in Confirmation tab of a PO.
so Plz let me know how the quantity in this (quantity reduced column in Confirmation tab of a PO.) is updated?????????/
Or suggest me the solution for preparing the GRN of Open quantity of PO (85 Tons)

Basically both total GRN and confirmation qty need to be the same, if one of the value is different, than the system will take the highest value and reduce the open PO qty as you can see in MD04.
if the confirmation qty is to big, then you need to change the confirmation qty, it will then update the open PO qty.

WM - TR & Open quantity reduced by available stock

Dear All,
The problem is:
PrdOrds were released, TRs were generated and partially delivered (processed). After that inventory (stock counting) took place.
Having finished the inventory we wanted to process the partially delivered TRs (LB10 > 'TO in foregr.') but SAP set the 'selected qty' in LT04 to 0 and gave the message: "Open quantity reduced by available stock" .
We use dynamic bins, and all TOs have been confirmed. I've checked (in LT22) and I've found that the necessary quantities haven't been fully supplied for the dynamic bins of PrdOrds.
Why SAP considers the quantities fully supplied? What is the reason? (During the inventory no differences were booked for the related materials) Shouldn't we create inventory doc. for dynamic bins?
Thanks,
Csaba

Hi Jürgen,
Thanks for your reply.
This is the short history of this issue:
1.
total TR quantity was 30 pcs (originally)
2.
partially delivery, TO qty 16 pcs (TR reference)
3.
inventory - no inventory difference for that dynamic bin, qty was 16 pcs both before & after inventory
4.
problem detected - /WH couldn't process the TR as I said that's why they manually created a TO to post the goods to the dynamic bin/
5.
partial delivery, TO qty 14 pcs (w/o TR reference)
(after point '4' we tried to process the TR in foreground as I said > problem discussed above. After that I processed it in background > result: TR quantity 30, open qty in TR 0, number of TO items 1 - no TO was generated)
Thanks,
Csaba

Component quantity reducable in backflush

Hi All,
If a materail is not available in stock, users are deleting or reducing a component and saving in confirmation/Backflush.
How can we controll this, that a component quantity cannot be reduced in business transactions.
Regards
Prashant Atri

Dear Friend,
Another way it to use the transaction variant. Through transaction variant you can hide the delete icon from confirmation screen.
If you want further control than through transaction variant the component quantity in confirmation screen you can change to display mode only.
Hence this way user will not be able to delete or change the component at the time of confirmation.
Transaction code for creating transaction variant is SHDO.
Advantage of using the transaction variant is that you don't need the help of Abaper.
Thanks and Regards,

Cash Sales- Don't save when Order quantity are differente of Confirmed Quan

Dear all , hope u all are doing great ...
I have a question about cash sales:
I have a process that when de sales order (BV) is save the outbound delivery is create (standard) and the good issue done. However, if the order quantity is diferent of the confirmed quantity (in the order) the outbound delivery is created with the confirmed quantity.
I would know if is it possible to the system sends a error message, in the order, when those quantities are diferent. Is any way, standard, to do that? Or have I must use an user-exit that compares the quantities and send a erro message to the user who is cresting the cash sales?
I hope you can help me...
Best regards,
Inês Garcê

Hi friend,
there is an option on the sales order to do complete delivery. And there is a check on customer material information record to allow only complete delivery. Along with these there is a check at delivery item cat. which checks if only a complete delivery needs to be allowed or trigger an error / disallow creation of delivery.

Stock quantity vs sales order confirmed quantity

when creating a sales order for a particular item, the system confirms quantity 100 whereas when i check the stock status of the material using any inventory report( e.g.. mmbe, mb52), the system shows 200 of the stock in unrestricted use.
When I simulate the material requiremnets using ATP quantities, the system shows a previous sales order against which quantity 100 is shown as confirmed. However, when I checked that particular sales order, it is already delivered and invoiced(hence it should not be shown in the ATP quantities).
Can anyone please help me and suggest what is wrong here? it is very urgent.

I know that 100 materials are already assigned to this order but the problem is that the order is already delivered and invoiced i.e. the whole sale cycle has been completed for that particular order.
anything else i should check??

Inbound delivery quantity update with the confirm putaway quantity

even if i set up the update indicator (1or 2) during a TO confirmation, the system do not update the inbound delivery with the quantity confirmed, especialy in case of difference.
this option is possible during the TO creation, but not works with during the TO confirmation, could you help me?

It works with the outbound delivery only.
Though updating quantities in inb. delivery would be very useful for quantity difference handling.

Forecast Quantity Reduced to 0 by ASCP

Hi,
I'm running a Un-Constrained ASCP plan in 11.5.10 version.I have a forecast defined at Source for qty-300 in bucket-october-2010.I'm able to see this forecast entry in Collection workbench for 300 nos.
After running ASCP plan , the plan has shifted the sugg due date to plan start date.This is expected as the customer runs a customization to back-off the forecast date by Leadtimes.
But the qty is changed to 0 from 300.I'm not able to see any consumption details for this forecast entry.And even the 'Consumed Forecast' field in the PWB doesnot show any value , it is blank.But I have a SO , for qty-300 on the same date.if this SO has consumed the forecast , this should be visible in the consumption details.
Is there any other method to check the consumption in ASCP plan, other that the PWB-UI.
Even forecast expiration is not happening as it is a un-Constrained plan( ASCP userguide states that Forecast Expiration happens in a Optimized ECC plan , and again i dont see any value in the 'Expired Forecast' field in the PWB.
What are the other functionalities , that would reduce the Forecast qty.
Has anybody faced this similar issue earlier.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Partha,
Pls find the detrails below.
The Hook runs after Data collection and before Plan.SO the due date of the foreast is over written in the collected data.
In source the Due date of the forecast was in October'10.Due to the Intransit LT of 42 days , the due date was pulled in to August-10.
And the MRP parameters,
Include MDS Days
Include Past Due Forecast ,
both are blank.If its blank , what i understand is, there is no restriction to the Past Due forecast that is considered in the plan.
Please let me know , If You need any additional information.
Thanks

Availability check during changing to reconsider confirmed quantity

Hi there,
Is it somehow possible during changing the order quantity of an already confirmed item to reconsider the confirmed quantity?
When decreasing the quantity he sometimes reschedules the item and the the whole confirmed quantity is one month back.
Regards and thanks,
Alex

But I don't want to have a new ATP check.
Example:
Yesterday I got 3 pieces of material X confirmed.
Today my customer only wants 2 and I have to reduce the quantity now. But then a new ATP check runs even if there are enough stocks.

SCRAP QUANTITY IN ORDER CONFIRMATION

Hi,
When i confirm an order there is a field called scrap quantity. Supposse there is an order for 10 qty. Now while confirming the order i give in the yield field as 10 & 10 in scrap quantity where will it effect...
Will it effect costing of the order.
Can i do like this because my order is for 10 quantity & i am confirming & scarping the same quantity.
Please guide as i want to use the same field..
I am in go live satge.Please help.
regards
jimmy

Hi JIMMY
As per your question smiltensly you can't book both as yield and scrap with same order quantity.Either you book 10 in yield or in scrap or total of this yield and scrap is equal to production order quantity.That means if order quantity is 10 then you may book 6as yield and 4as scrap.Once you have entered scrap in CO11N no material movements are automatically posted in the system. By confirming scrap you are only reducing the balance confirmable qty in the order. The order costs would increase since you would have posted goods issue for input material without goods receipt for finished goods.
Now you want to realize the value of the scrap produced then you would have to do a goods receipt of the scrap as a by-product using movt type 531 in MB1C for the scrap material number.
It can also automate posting of this if a percentage scrap is know. You can do this in BoM by specifing a negative qty against the scrap material number. Then if the backlash is activated every time confirmation is done the 531 movement line will come automatically in goods movements screen. If no scrap arises then you have to delete that line and post the confirmation.
Hope this helps ...if so reward points and close this thread.
regards
Rajesh

How to Prevent the confirmation of quantity in Sales Order

Hi All,
I want to make sure that if the quantity in a line item for certain customers exceeds certain threshold quantity the quantity does not get confirmed and we set up a delivery block on the entire order.
I know how we can setup the delivery block. Could someone tell me, if we can programmatically ensure that quantity is not confirmed for that particular item. Is there a standard SAP way (function module/BAPI etc) of doing it? Or do I need to find and update the table.

Hello krishna,
You need to delete the confirmed schedule line programatically in the user exit.
Delete the corresponding entry in the internal table xvbep. You need to do this in a appropriate user exits in the include mv45afzz.
I guess you can also do this in atp function module user exit.
Hope this helps you..

Jiten

Delivery quantity can be modified independent of the confirmed quantity

Dear SD Gurus,
There is such a case as below:
The sales order quantity: 100 UNT
The confirmed sales order quantity: 100 UNT but manually decreased to 70 UNT
The delivery quantity: 70 UNT but manually can be increased to 90 UNT.
Is this above the standart behavior of the SAP? to block the manual increase/decrease, do we need to go on with user exit or something manual? (based on the confirmed quantity?
Thanks
Mary

hi mary,
this is possible because you are changing the order quantity in the sales order if stock is there then there is no issue on the same
because when ever order quantity in sales order increases or decreases the system will check for ATP.
yes its a standard process.
User exits in the program FV45EFZ1
USEREXIT_CHANGE_SALES_ORDER.
but why do you want to block it this funcationality is good know.

balajia.
