hi Neel,
check oss note 352344 - Process key + reversals in Inventory Management ?
Symptom
This note is a consulting note and describes the use of the process key (0PROCESSKEY) in Inventory Management (MSEG). It focusses on the way the system deals with reversed transactions for DataSources 2lis_40_s279 and 2lis_03_bf.
To be able to use theses DataSources, you ABSOLUTELY MUST activate the transaction key generation (process key, PROCESSKEY) using Transaction MCB_ (from the OLTP IMG for BW: SBIW) (standard, retail or consumption goods).
The following transaction keys are available
(PROCESSKEY/Appl. Component/Description):
000/MM        Misc. receipts
001/MM        Goods receipt / vendor
004/MM        Article transfer posting receipt
005/MM        Stock correction inventory +
006/MM        Stock correction other +
007/IS-R      Receipt value-only article (single article
              posting)
010/MM        Receipt from stock transfer
002/IS-R      Merchandise clearing receipt
003/IS-R      GR from DC
100/MM        Misc. issues
101/MM        Returns / Vendor
104/MM        Article transfer posting issue
105/MM        Stock correction inventory -
106/MM        Stock correction other -
107/IS-R      Issue value-only article (single article
              posting)
110/MM        Issue from stock transfer
102/IS-R      Merchandise clearing issue
103/IS-R      GI from DC
450/IS-R      Generic Article (not relevant)
Remark: Transaction keys 002/003, 102/103 break down the core keys 010/110 in more detail with respect to retail processes. They are only available in an R/3 Retail.
As you can see in the overview, the transaction keys can be divided according to receipts and issues in Inventory Management. Furthermore, the transaction keys are displayed according to reversed and regular transactions.
A regular receipt has a debit/credit indicator "S" (SHKZG, 0DCINDIC), whereas a regular issue has a debit/credit indicator "H".
For reverse transactions the opposite is true.
Transaction                            D/C ind.   D/C ind.
                                        S          H
RECEIPTS
0 Misc. receipts                        regular    reversed
1 Goods receipt / vendor               regular    reversed
2 Merchandise clearing receipt        regular    reversed
3 GR from DC                            regular    reversed
4 Article transfer posting receipt    regular    reversed
5 Stock correction inventory +        regular    reversed
6 Stock correction other +            regular    reversed
7 Receipt value-only article          regular    reversed
10 Receipt from stock transfer        regular    reversed
ISSUES
100 Misc. issues                       reversed   regular
101 Returns / vendor                   reversed   regular
102 Merchandise clearing issue        reversed   regular
103 GI from DC                         reversed   regular
104 Article transfer posting issue    reversed   regular
105 Stock correction inventory -      reversed   regular
106 Stock correction other -          reversed   regular
107 Issue value-only article          reversed   regular
110 Issue from stock transfer         reversed   regular
Note: You can also recognize a reversal for DataSource 2lis_03_bf by means of the entry 0STORNO = ´X´. The fields that are marked with X in the table are then transferred with negative +/- sign. This was not the case with DataSource 2LIS_40_S279!!! In the case of DataSource 2LIS_40_S279 more logic was required in the BW update rules to make sure that key figures were updated correctly.
Example:
In the delivered InfoCubes 0CP_IC_C1 (CP) and 0RT_C01 (Retail), for example in key "Stock correction +", transaction keys 5 and 6 were grouped together. Furthermore, distinction is to be made between the different stock types. Depending on which stock types you want to distinguish between in different key figures, you must use a corresponding condition (IF statement) in the update rules in the BW.
Example (pseudo source code):
Updating Routine "stock adjustment +" for 2lis_02_bfIF ( STOCKCAT is initial ) AND         "Evaluated stocks ( PROCESSKEY = 5 OR PROCESSKEY = 6 )._ RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT. RETURNCODE = 0.    "Updating Key figureELSE. RETURNCODE = 4.    "No Updating of KeyfigureENDIF.
The pseudo source code for 2LIS_40_S279 read as follows:
Updating Routine "stock adjustment +" for 2lis_40_s279IF ( STOCKCAT is initial ) AND         "Evaluated stocks ( PROCESSKEY = 5 OR PROCESSKEY = 6 ).    IF DCINDIC = 'S'.      RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT.    "regular    ELSE.      RESULT = -1 * TRANS_AMOUNT.    ENDIF.    RETURNCODE = 0.    "Updating Key figureELSE.     RETURNCODE = 4.    "No Updating of KeyfigureENDIF.
Here, the debit/credit indicator must be checked in accordance with the table above. Transactions 5 and 6 are receipts in Inventory Management. As the debit/credit indicator is set to "S", it is a regular transaction whose value(TRANS_AMOUNT) is assigned to the key figure. In the other case (debit/credit indicator = "H") it is a reversal, that is, the transaction should reverse a transaction that has already been updated. For this, the value is multiplied by -1 so that a corresponding decrease/reduction of this key figure is achieved during the update of the key figure in the InfoCube.
This logic is no longer required for the 2LIS_03_BF (see first pseudo source code), because the reversed quantity and values are automatically provided as negative with the help of the 0STORNO field.
Using this DataSource 2LIS_03_BF, it is for example possible to create a key figure such as "Reversed receipts", which is not a part of the Business Content delivered. The following pseudo source code of an update routine makes this clear:
Update routine "Reversed receipts"
IF ( PROCESSKEY = 1 ) AND   (STORNO = ´X` ) "Reverse     RESULT = -1 * TRANS_AMOUNT.     RETURNCODE = 0.ELSE.     RETURNCODE = 4.      "no update of key figure!ENDIF.
Note: For DataSource 2LIS_40_S279 the pseudo source code read as follows:
Update routine "Reversed receipts"
for 2LIS_40_S279IF ( PROCESSKEY = 1 ) AND   ( DCINDIC = H ) "Reverse     RESULT = TRANS_AMOUNT.     RETURNCODE = 0.ELSE.   RETURNCODE = 4.      "no update of key figure!ENDIF.
To be able to understand the overall scheme more comprehensively, you should have a look at the update rules of the Standard Business Content for retail or consumption goods (for example InfoCubes 0RT_C01 or 0CP_IC_C1).

Process keys maintenance for Inventory data

Hi,
Can any one suggets the Procedure for to maintain the Process keys at the time of extracting Inventory data from Ecc6.0 to BI 7.0.
Thanks,

BI consultant need to maintain the process key(transaction keys) or MM consultant. when i see that path, already some transaction keys are maintaining for MM there like
aplication component          application   operat    Description
MM                                      02                   1          Purchase order/vendor

Why do we use process keys

Dear all,
Can any one tell me y we use process keys....in inventory........can anyone please tell me the importance of process keys... y do we use them in the update rules.
what is the significance of process keys
Regards
venu

Dear,
For this we need to understand how Business Contents/extractors are designed.
Well, based on applications there are different methods followed by SAP to differentiate different Business Events in Logistics Applications.
Say for example, for Logistics applications Process Keys are used to differentiate between different Business Events.
In Financials, we use 'Value Type' to differentiate whether the data is a planned data or a Actual data or budgeted or a commitment or forecast etc.
Since, logistics applications are Business Events oriented, documents are differentiated using Process Keys.

Relation between Inventory Process keys and movement types

Dear All,
Is there any way to find the relation between Inventory process keys (which is in SBIW-> Settings for Application specific data sources(PI) -->Logistics -->Settings for IBU Retail / CP --> Transaction key maintenance for SAP BW) and movement types .
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Raju

Hi,
Please read the note below.
Note 353042 - Howto: Activate transaction key (PROCESSKEY)
It has something for you ....
The process key (0PROCESSKEY and 0BWAPPLNM) of the InfoSources has not been filled. As a result, no key figures are updated because of the update routine of the participating InfoCube and along with it no records are inserted into the InfoCube. In each update routine, the system checks the content of the PROCESSKEY. If this field has no contents, then no data is written into the InfoCube because of the IF condition in the update rules.
Solution
So that you can work in the above mentioned InfoSources, you MUST activate the determination of the process key. This is done with the help of Transaction MCB_ which you can find in the OLTP IMG for BW (Transaction SBIW) in your attached R/3 source system.
Here you can choose your industry sector. 'Standard' and 'Consumer products' are for R/3 standard customers, whereas 'Retail' is intended for customers with R/3 Retail only.
You can display the characteristics of the process key (R/3 field BWVORG, BW field 0PROCESSKEY) by using Transaction MCB0.
If you have already set up historical data (for example for testing purposes) by using the setup transactions (Statistical Setup Programs) (for example: Purchasing: Tx OLI3BW, material movements: OLI1BW) into the provided setup tables (for example: MC02M_0SCLSETUP, MC03BF0SETUP), you unfortunately have to delete this data (Tx LBWG). After you have chosen the industry sector by using MCB_, perform the setup again, so that the system fills a valid transaction key for each data record generated. Then load this data into your connected BW by using 'Full update' or 'Initialization of the delta process'. Check, whether the system updates data into the involved InfoCubes now.
If all this is not successful, please see Note 315880, and set the application indicator 'BW' to active using Transaction 'BF11'.
Hope this helps.

Process Key in 2LIS_11* & 2LIS_12*

Hi experts,
I am wondering if anyone could provide information about the process key usage in LIS extractors like 2LIS_11* & 2LIS_12*? e.g. which process key is for which type of data?
thanks for your help in advance!
regards,
Sally

Hello Sally,
Process key or Transaction key is nothing but Movement type in R/3.
Exmple: Sales order 10001
Post Goods Issue(MIGO) happend reference to that sales order then that is movement type 601 in R/3.
Procees key in BW is 0 or 1.
There could be Return Order in R/3 Movement type 591.
Process key 2 in BW.
I think I answered ur question
Thanks,
Kishore

Hi Bhima,
look at OSS Note 353042 'How to Activate transaction key PROCESSKEY'...
However, Logistic Cockpit extractors represent, in principle, structures that collect document-specific information from the logistics application and transfer it to the SAP BW.
Many key figures are yielded from the application. These must be transferred to the SAP BW with the help of the extractors. SAP ensures that document information is interpreted in advance with the help of a 'process key' so that key figures, which describe and measure the particular processes, can be more easily derived for customers.
In the 2LIS_02_SCL, for example, this means that the rows to be transferred only contain transfer quantities and value fields. The actual key figure is hidden behind the process key. There are generic key figures (transfer quantities and transfer values) that have a significance when combined with the process keys.
Process keys must, during the update, be resolved into corresponding key figures at the time of query creation at the latest, you must have a precise knowledge of the process keys for the creation of customer-specific infocube updates or the creation of the query.
Example: Update routine for the key figure 'Order Volume Quantity (External Vendor)'(pseudo-coding):
IF COMM_STRUCTURE-PROCESSKEY = `001`.
RESULT = COMM_STRUCTURE-TRANS_AMOUNT.
ELSE.
CLEAR RESULT. no update of key-figure
ENDIF.
Look at MCB0 transaction !!!
Hope it helps!

Process key for infosource 2LIS_02_SCL

Hi
Is processkey a standard across a module eg: MM and SD. In the transfer rule, there is a coding to check on process key in 2LIS_02_SCL. eg:
if ( comm_structure-processkey = '002' or
    comm_structure-processkey = '012' or
    comm_structure-processkey = '022' )
    and comm_structure-bwapplnm eq 'MM'
    and comm_structure-cppvlc <> 0.
                                                                                result = comm_structure-cppvlc.
    returncode = 0.
else.
    returncode = 4.
endif.
                                                                                I would like to know what is the meaning of these process keys? Are the configure somewhere? Can anyone share with me?

2Lis_02_SCL - Process Key

Hi All,
i have existing report in which Goods Receipt value
and Invoice Receipt values are populated based on
Process key value which is part of the standard
datasource 2lis_02_scl.
am working on a new report based on a view which
includes tables like ekko/ekpo/ekbe etc. i need to
populate Goods Receipt value and Invoice Receipt
values. my problem is i cannot include process key as a
field in the view because it doesn't exist as a field
in any of the tables. apart from process key is there any
other field based on which i can distinguish good receipt and Invoice receipts.
Did anyone faced this problem or have any suggestions..
Thanks

Processing Key In MRP

hi,
I wanted some clarification regarding the Processing key under MRP Control Parameters in MD01
The following values are found linked to this field.
NETCH
NETPL
NEUPL
Could someone explain how exactly these keys work.and what is their significance.
Regards
Lyroj

Hi,
NEUPL: System plans all the materials that are contained in the planning file
NETCH: In net change planning only those materials are planned for which the net change planning indicator in the planning file has been set as a planning file entry. The system usually sets the indicator automatically as soon as a change is made to the material that is relevant to MRP.
NETPL: The system only plans materials that have undergone a change that is relevant to the planning run within the period which you defined as the planning horizon. The system sets the net change planning horizon indicator automatically for these materials .
