Question regarding SAP note 765494 and Scheduling agreements

In a SAP ECC 6.0 environment has anybody dealt with note 765494? It appears that the changes allow the user to change shipping data on stock transfer scheduling purchase orders using the ME22N screen (Enjoy) but not the ME32L scheduling agreement change screen. Does anybody know of a work around to change shipping data on a stock transfer scheduling agreement?

Hi Mahesh,
A contract is a type of outline purchase agreement against which release orders (releases) can be issued for agreed materials or services as and when required during a certain overall time-frame.
Contracts are of two types:
1. Quantity contracts - Use this type of contract if the total quantity to be ordered during the validity period of the contract is
known in advance.
2. Value contracts - Use this type of contract if the total value of all release orders issued against the contract is not to exceed a certain predefined value.
But a scheduling agreement is a form of outline purchase agreement under which materials are procured on predetermined dates within a certain time period. A scheduling agreement consists of a number of items, for each of which a procurement type is defined. The
The following are the procurement types:
- Standard
- Subcontracting
- Consignment
- Stock transfer
Delivery of the total quantity of material specified in a scheduling agreement item is spread over a certain period in a delivery schedule, consisting of lines indicating the individual quantities with their corresponding planned delivery dates.
Contracts and Scheduling Agreement transaction codes:
Transaction codes:
Contracts: ME31K to ME35K
Scheduling agreements: ME31L to ME35L.
Please award if helps!

Document flow is not updated for Scheduling agreement

Hi Gurus,
Can you please advise on the below issue..
Some deliveries created with reference of schedule agreement are not displayed in scheduling agreement in forecast delivery schedule under delivery tab and as well as not updated in document flow for VBFA table.
There are two ways to create delivery with reference of Scheduling agreement , 1) Create Delivery order (Order Type : TAM) with reference of SA, then delivery for TAM order.
2) we can add the line item in existing TAM order with reference of SA .
Advance thanks for your valid points.
Best regards,
Venkat.

Hi Ram,
Thanks for the reply, there is no issue in copy control settings.
Best regards,
Venkat.

Terms of payment in PO and Schedule agreement

Dear Gurus,
Is there any standard setting to update terms of payment without changing the PO and schedule agreement manually. My client wants that they will update terms of payment in vendor master at the first time and create 1 purchase order for the particular vendor.
Later they will change the terms of payment in vendor master and the same has to picked up in PO automatically without changing the PO.
Please let me know if there is any standard settings available or any user exit i have to apply.
Regards,
mohdsams

Hi,
If you have multiple payment term in one vendor then you can not put payment terms in vendor master.
You put payment terms in at the time of P.O.

SAP best practice on scheduling agreements

Hello all,
Our client is an automotive supplier and currently in the SAP environment we use spot POs for indirect purchasing (thru SRM) and scheduling agreement for direct procurement. The scheduling agreements have multiple lines and we try to process as much invoices as ERS as possible.
Currently some of the business units are proposing to have single line items in the SA rather than the multiple ones. The reason being huge no of SA lines being faxed and also supposing it to be a SAP suggested best practice to have ONLY one line item per SA.
I am not sure of any such best practice. Could you please help me with an single Vs multi line scheduling agreements pros and cons. Also what is the best practice that are seen in the automotive sector or being suggested by SAP.
Any SAP official documentation in the public domain will also help.
Thanks

As per my experience, we have used both the ways, both have its pro's and cons.
In one instance we may feel that it is easy to handle one line per one SA and in that way we will create many SA's and in ither instance we may fell having one SA for multiple lines.
SAP does not give any best approach...or else SAP woul dhave provided the option for only one line.
As per my experience the Structuring of a SA should be based on the way you procure from the supplier / Vendor.
We have one supplier who supplies 800+ materials, we can create one SA with 800 lines... But we have created multiple SA's based on the product category whcih is a bit easy to identify whcoih material goes into which SA and the Vendor is also happy as he knows that for one product there is a specific SA.
Hope this helps you in resolving your issue.,

"difference between sales order and scheduling agreement "

hi,
i want to know difference between sales order and scheduling agreement and where use scheduling agreement & where sales order ?
please help
amit

Hi Amit,
Its not hard to find this info at help.sap.com
Sales Order
Definition: Request from a customer to a company to deliver a defined quantity of products or provide a service at a certain time. The sales area that accepts the inquiry is responsible for completing the agreement.
Scheduling Agreements
Purpose
A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity. The following graphic shows the document flow for scheduling agreements.
Integration
You would use this component if you had outline agreements with the customer that contained future delivery quantities of materials that would be sent at certain times within a fixed time period.
If you work with scheduling agreements for the component supplier industry you also need to choose the "Electronic Data Interchange" (EDI) component.

Beginner question regarding 32-bit mixing and mixdown workflow

Hello
I have a beginner question regarding 32-bit mixing and mixdown.
If I edit some 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo WAV Files and put them into multi-track view to do crossfades, how should I do the mixdown?
Audition shows me in multi-track view, that it is doing 32-Bit mixing.
Can I just mixdown to 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo without any dithering (as the files are 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo to begin with), or will I lose quality that way?
I will be performing a normalization to 96% to the mixdown and then split to tracks in Audition, as in the end I want to to have an audio CD.
I guess I could mixdown to 32Bit, then normalize and in the end save back to 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo WAV (with dithering, I suppose?), but I want to avoid any unnecessary converting steps.
Greetings

Any time you do any processing on a 16bit file in 16 bit only it will degrade the audio slightly due to rounding of the calculations. Working in 32 bit floating point (Audition's default) takes account of all bits generated due to processing.
So it is always best to work in 32 bit, even if your originals were 16, all the way through until the last stage of saving the files for CD burning. Any losses due to conversion will be insignificant against those due to working 16 bit.

A few questions regarding SAP EWM and WM

Hello,
I have a few general questions regarding the differences between EWM and WM:
1) What are the benefits of EWM-MFS compared to WM + TRM (especially in terms of SPS)?
2) The Quality Inspection Engine (QIE) can also be used by SAP WM, right?
3) There is RFID-support in EWM, so EWM is able to communicate directly with SAP Auto-ID, right?
But I have heard that SAP PI is necessary in some cases, when and why?
4) Is there something new in EWM regarding goods receipt processing?
I have read that the splitting of inbound delivery items is possible in EWM in case of missing inbound delivery items. Is this really a new feature?
5) EWM can easily be connected to SAP BW for reporting purposes, what about WM?
6) What about scalability if the warehouse grows?
7) Is there any information about the costs of using EWM compared to WM and vice versa?
I appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you.
Dennis

Hi,
1. What does SAP offer as a product for dWM? Is it a u201Cspecialu201D installation of the SAP framework dedicated to WM or is it a standard ECC box where only the WM module is used?
There are two version of DWM. One is Decentralized WM as a part of ECC and another one is EWM as a part of SCM. Both are decentralized.
2. My understanding is that the interfaces between ERP and dWM can support some non-real time operations (like when the main ERP system is down, the dWM can still perform some operations). Considering that the transactional interfaces are based on BAPIs, how does SAP achieve this interfacing in non-real time environments? I am thinking you can complete the different processing unless both systems are up
When it comes to interfaces, DWM needs Deliveries from ERP. That's it, WM can function from there independent of ERP system. But, WM defenitely needs to communicate back PGI and PGR and other posting changes . So, in case ERP is down, even though PGI / PGR is done at WM end, they may not be communicated back to ERP. But WM generates PGI/PGR IDOCs which can always be reprocessed at WM end to resend them to ERP so that Inventory levels are accurate.
Hope that helps
Thanks

V_V2 and scheduling agreements with ATP

Dear SAP SD Experts,
In our production environment we use Scheduling Agreements with ATP. This means we do perform ATP for each firm schedule line received from the customer. Every night we run a rescheduling job (transaction code V_V2 - program SDV03V02) which is basically taking into account all the lines/documents including these scheduling agreements. My question: from an standard SAP functionality point of view, is the rescheduling job actually performing a new ATP for the schedule lines in these scheduling agreements and re-determining new ATP dates?.Does it have any effect to reschedule schedule lines in scheduling agreements?.
Thanks in advance,
Luciano

Hi Luciano
What you asked is about ATP . and the Fixed date / qty is something which we define in customer master data. in sales area data. If fixed date/ qty is checked then no partial deliveries are allowed for that customer.
so for an example
if the customer X is checked for fixed date/ qty then whatever quantity you enter in the sales oder for that customer X that has to be delivered to the customer X at 1 time .so you cant deliver the material on partial basis.
say u have a material in plant - 50 pcs
customer oder is - 75 pcs
so this is an unconfirmed order and this order should be done rescheduling . .
you cant deliver these 50pcs to customer X even though stock is available as for this customer X fixed date /qty is there
only if the material is available for more than 75pcs in the plant then only you can deliver
I hope now you are clear with the doubt of fixed date / qty
Reward if useful and any queries let me know and mark answered if you got ur answer
Regards
Srinath

Subcontract and scheduling agreement

gurus can u tell n detail reg the subcontract n scheduling agreement followed during real time?

Hi,
Sub Contracting Cycle are:
(1) You have a material (Finished Goods) that can be procured externally, and you have maintained BOM (CS01) with components (Raw Materials). Any waste generated and received during subcontracting process can be maintained as component with negative quantity in the BOM.
(2) You create a subcontracting PO (ME21N, Item Category L with different document type ie.. from std one). Maintain Purchase Info Record for Subcontract category for material and subcontractor.
(3) You make a transfer posting to issue components for SC PO(In ME2O directly or by MB1B with 541 Movement type). Material is sent to subcontractor. As material remains under your ownership, system does not make any value entry. But quantity is shown as "Material Provided to Vendor" .So no accounting document generated by supplying raw material to Sub Contracting Vendor.
(4) You receive (MIGO) finished material against SC-PO. You also specify components consumed in manufacturing of finished goods. Additionally, if you have negative components in BOM, now you'll also receive subcontracting by-products. There are three events, so three accounting entries are generated:
(5) Invoice Verification (MIRO) for SC Invoice.
(6) Payment in F-53
The accounting entries are:
FG BSX acc. Debit Acc.
GR/IR Cle.acc. WRX acc. Credit Acc.
FRL Acc. Debit Acc.
BSV acc. Credit Acc.
BSX acc. of components Credit Acc.
GBB - VBO Acc. Debit acc.
PRD acc. Some time Credit &
Some time Debit
If you are activate Price Diff. Acc. for SC-Vendor in....
OLMB -
> GR -
> Price diff. acc.for SC order while you do GR for your Plant......then Price Diff. Acc. also will be trigered...
Scheduling agreement is a long term purchase agreement, where you will keep issuing the delivery schedules whenever there is a change in requirement or at predetermined time intervals. The delivery schedule can be on hour/daily/weekly/monthly basis. SA is also an agreement with the vendor for the supply of matl, may be a quanity or value. The delivery dates will be maintained in ME38 ref the SA which are called delivery schedules.So you can maintain the delivery schedule and communicate the vendor on Forecase basis or JIT basis. And when you need some more matl then will only create SA deliveries using ME38. SA could be of 2 types:- without release documentation-system will transmit the delivery info to the vendor once you save the document.
With release documentation- after creating the delivery schedules you need to create SA release using ME84.So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME38 & MIGO,

Vendor address not updated in Scheduling Agreement

I have a peculiar problem where the vendor address is not being updated in all scheduling agreements. I have multiple SAs against a vendor. When i change the name of the vendor, the name changes only in one of the SA. All the remaining SA carry the old name of the vendor. I tested with another vendor on the test system and the names on all the agreements change as soon as I make the change in the vendor master.
Does anyone have any explanation on why the system is behaving strangely?
Thanks

Hi,
I am more surprised that the name changed automatically on the ones that DID change.
I would not have expected this to update in this way. The main idea is that outline agrements can have different data to the master records because they are specific agreements and often relate to very specific data.
If you wanted to change the address of a vendor it should NOT change the address of existinmg VSAs etc. automatically because the document is a =fixed contract that is agreed between you and the vendor and should ONLY be changed manually.
We had a similar question earlier today asking why the system does not change the short description on a contract when the short description on the material master changes. My reply was basically the same, it SHOULDN'T change it automatically because the agreement is a legal document and cannot be changed by just ONE of the parties involved.
So I would be asking why the one VSA changed automatically (and the ones in the test syste) not why the others didn't change.
Just trying to lok at this from all angles.
