Regarding Product Id and Category Id.

Hello,
We are implementing Web Ui for a client who is into housing, the requirement is to map the following when creating a lead.
1) The customer may inquire about a new project which is being constructed or is ready- This would include alpha numerical character say a project B2098945.
2) Once I select this project then under that I should see a dropdown say for ex. 2BHK, 3BHK
Let me add to the above point the first level or point no 1 will be created under product id in the marketing role in WebUi under account and products, under category id we would be mapping the second point as mentioned above. The same is getting saved in the accounts and product tab in the web ui screen, however now when I am going to the create lead screen and when I click on products then I am able to enter the product id however the category id is getting greyed out.
Kind Regards
Atul

Dear Christophe,
Thank you for your reply, went through the note however not able to link the category id to the lead creation screen in the main page of lead creation.The note talks about assigning the transaction type like (scheduling meetings, appointments) to the category, if you do have any further thoughts on the same do let me know however if this gets resolved will keep you posted.

Replication of product master and Product category

Hi
Please let me know steps involved in replicating
Product master and product category from R/3 to SRM
Regards
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
The blogs mentioned by Kathirvel explains clearly the entire replication procedure of Master data from R/3 to SRM.
Neverthless find some points which needs to be taken care during replication :
1. Ensure that the tables CRMCONSUM, CRMSUBTAB, CRMPAROLTP, CRMRFCPAR are duly filled in R/3 system.
2. Endure that SMOFPARSFA table is duly filled in SRM system.
3. Maintain the filter settings using R3AC3 and R3AC1 as per your requirement in SRM system.
4. Set up the Administrative console using SMOEAC and create both R/3 and SRM nodes and define the site attributes.
5. Ensure that all the queues (both inbound and outbound) are empty in both the systems before replication.
6. Start initial load of customizing objects (DNL_CUST_BASIS3, DNL_CUST_PROD0 & DNL_CUST_PROD1) using R3AS and monitor the loaded jobs using R3AM1.
7. After successful replication of customizing objects, load the business objects (material_master, service master) using R3AS.
8. The replicated material groups and product types can be seen using COMM_HIERARCHY txn.
9. The replicated materials can be seen using COMMPR01.
Hope this makes you more clear about the settings required.
Clarifications are welcome.
Award points for helpful answers.

Regarding product category

Hi All,
I created the root category and sub category. If I want to know that the subcategory comes from the root category how can I know that it is derived from the root category in program. See we can see that in GUI if we will expand it. But nowhere in Sub category we will get the root category. Then can I know any process is there that I can come to know.
Thanx
SARAVANA

Hi Paul,
Thanx for ur answer. What i trying to say we had created root category in GUI and we are seeing that in category tab of that category in maintain category and hierarchy. but if we created the sub category frow the root 1 in category tab page of sub category same thing we can see the sub category name. But there is no value like root category any where in sub category. Is there any possibility that I can see the root category name in sub category screen. Even if I want to see in program.
Another thing If hierarchy and category name as same then how can I know in program which is category and which is hierarchy.
Thanx
Saravana

Refrence number in Production order and purchase requisition

Dear All
This is MTO scenerio where sales order is created with refernce to quotation,
Subsequently in MRP run it creating sales order reservation for quotation number not sales for sales order number
similarly while creating purchase requisition it is displaying refernce number as quotation number
My requirement is instead of quotation number sales order number should display in production order and purchase requisition
All answers r suitably rewarded
regards

Hi
Pl check schedule line category you have set for quotation.
In sch. line for quotation remove checkmark for transfer of requirement and remove automatic Pr generation.
This will give required result.

Define Product Hierarchies
In this step, you define product hierarchies which you can use for statistical analysis or pricing, for example, or you can change their structure. The product hierarchy groups materials by combining different characteristics. Each characteristic is represented by a specific product hierarchy level.
Example
A product hierarchy can be structured as follows:
Level Example Description
1 00001 Electrical appliances
2 00002 Household appliances
3 00000003 Wet appliances
In this example, a dishwasher belongs to product hierarchy 000010000200000003.
Standard settings
In the standard system, the product hierarchy consists of up to 3 levels. The first and second levels have 5 digits and the third level has 8. The maximum number of digits is 18 and the maximum number of levels is 9.
You can define hierarchy nodes at the individual levels of the product hierarchy.
From the initial screen you can branch to the following steps:
Product hierarchy structure
In the Data Dictionary, you can change the structure of the product hierarchy (e.g. the number of levels).
Data entry/display
Here you define the display of the product hierarchy and the format of the accompanying text.
Product hierarchy
Here you define your product hierarchies.
Field catalog for pricing
Here you make fields of the product hierarchy structure available for use in pricing.
Field catalog for the Logistics Information System
Here you make fields of the product hierarchy structure available for use in the Logistics Information System.
Actions concerning the product hierarchy structure
Structuring the product hierarchy
The product hierarchy can be structured via DDIC structure PRODHS. In the standard system, a product hierarchy can be created with up to three levels. The individual levels can contain the following number of digits:
Level number of allowed digits
1 5
2 5
3 8
This can be changed as of Release 3.0, where it is possible to extend the maximum number of levels to 9.
If you want to change the standard setting of PRODHS, e.g. you want to change the number of levels, proceed as follows:
1. Create an appropriate domain in the Data Dictionary (type CHAR with the required length).
2. Assign these domains to the standard data elements PRODH1, PRODH2, ..., PRODH9.
Please note that you should use these standard data elements.
3. Change the structure PRODHS by creating or deleting fields with reference to the data elements.
Choose ZZPRODHN as field name, where n is the position of the field in the structure PRODHS.
Example
You want to change the structure of the product hierarchy from 5/5/8 digits to 5/5/5/3. Proceed as follows:
Create the following domains:
ZPRODH3 with length 5, category CHAR,
ZPRODH4 with length 3, category CHAR,
Change structure PRODHS:
Strucutre PRODHS in the standard system:
Structure Fields Data element Category Length
PRODHS ->
PRODH1 PRODH1 CHAR 5
PRODH2 PRODH2 CHAR 5
PRODH3 PRODH3 CHAR 8
Changes according to example:
Structure Fields Data element Category Length
PRODHS ->
PRODH1 PRODH1 CHAR 5
PRODH2 PRODH2 CHAR 5
PRODH3 PRODH3 CHAR 5
ZZPRODH4 PRODH4 CHAR 3
Note
The structure PRODHS and the data elements PRODH1, ..., PRODH9 are only provided by SAP with Release 3.0 and can be changed by the customer from this point onwards.
Conversion routines for INPUT/OUTPUT
The product hierarchy can be assigned to a conversion routine. The name of the conversion routine is PRODH. The output template can be defined in Customizing (see below).
The separators used in the template are not allowed for maintaining the product hierarchy nodes.
Example:
If the template is _____/_____/__________
The symbol "/" cannot be used when maintaining the product hierarchy nodes. In this case, the following entry would not be allowed: 123456/79012345678
Text concatenation
The description of a product hierarchy can be determined via concatenation, if required.
Proceed as follows:
1. Determine the node preceding the current node
2. Concatenate the description of the subsequent node with the description from the preceding node.
The text concatenation is valid for the entire product hierarchy, the concatenated text has a length of 20. Text concatenation can be activated/deactivated in Customizing (see below).
Note
Make sure during text concatenation that the text of the product hierarchy does not come from table T179T. In this case function module RV_PRODUKTHIERARCHIE_TEXT_GET is available.
Allowed symbols for product hierarchy nodes
If you have stored a template for the conversion routine, the separators in the template are not allowed.
Actions concerning data entry/display
You can make two settings regarding the layout of the product hierarchy and the format of the product hierarchy text:
1. Enter a template for displaying the product hierarchy. This template defines the length of the individual levels and the separators.
Note that the character used to separate the levels in the template cannot be used in the product hierarchy nodes.
2. The description of a product hierarchy node can be determined by concatenation if required.
If you activate text concatenation, the text for one level is added to the description of the higher level and then output. The text of the first level appears at the beginning followed by the text of the second and third levels. Text concatenation applies to the complete product hierarchy. The concatenated text can have a maximum of 20 characters.
Do not activate text concatenation if you only want to issue the description of the hierarchy levels created for these levels when the product hierarchy was defined.
Actions concerning the product hierarchy
The product hierarchy can be freely defined and include up to three levels. The SAP System checks the entry in the field product hierarchy during master data maintenance and copies it to the SD document. The separators used in the template cannot be used in the product hierarchy.
Note
Via a matchcode you can search specifically for material master records with a product hierarchy.
Analyze the product hierarchies in your organization and define their representation in the SAP System.
1. Assign a characteristic value to the individual levels of your product hierarchy: a 5-character value to levels 1 and 2, and an 8-character value to level 3. The level number is determined automatically.
A product hierarchy node encompasses a characteristic value of a maximum of 18 characters.
2. Enter a description for the product hierarchy.
Actions concerning the field catalog for pricing
The product hierarchy can be used for functions in pricing. Then the fields of the product hierarchy structure must be entered into the field catalog for pricing.
Enter the fields of the product hierarchy in the field catalog.
Actions concerning the field catalog for Logistics Controlling
The product hierarchy can be used for statistical analyses in the Logistics Information System. The fields of the product hierarchy structure must then be entered in a field catalog for the Logistics Information System.
Enter the product hierarchy in a field catalog. You can refer to field catalog 'VPHI', which displays the standard settings.

Creation of new product hierarchy and products in SAP CRM.

Dear all,
please help with resolving of following issue:
In CRM system base hierarchies were replicated from R/3 system with materials. Current requirement is to create new materials in CRM directly (as standalone scenario). As far as I understand, I have to create new hierarchy with required list of set types in order to allow creation of products in CRM directly (product type = material). Can anybody describe changes in the system step by step, what should be changed and where?
As a result I need to have a possibility to create products in CRM directly for sales scenario processing.
Thank you in advance!

Hi Jorge,
thank you so much for your reply!
Here what I tried to do:
1. I created new category in hierarchy R3PRODSTYP, added 3 set types: COMM_PR_MAT, COMM_PR_SHTEXT, COMM_PR_UNIT as basic set types.
2. In the SPRO - Cross-Application Components - SAP Product - Settings for Product Type - Number Assignment - Define Number Ranges for the Product Type "Material" I found my new product category is unassigned, so I assigned it to the "CRM Products" group.
3. Farther I tried to create a new product for created category in CRM Web UI, but was not able to find it in the Base category search field. All categories correctly displayed from R3PRODSTYP, but my new category is absent. What can be the reason of category absence? Btw, it cannot be found even when I try to display whole hierarchy in Web UI, however, in SAP GUI, it can be seen via tcode comm_hierarchy.
Here is the setup of hierarchies in the system:
I have no idea how to check #3 "Ensure the hierarchy is assigned to CRM application".
Can you please suggest, what should be changed in addition? Thank you!

Open production orders and outbound delivery after go-live

Hello All,
I tried to search answer for this question but could not find answer.
Could anybody suggest, what to do with open production orders and outbound delivery after go-live when WM is activated. As, after go-live WM-PP interface will be activated and system should consume material from storage bin specified in control cycle and that will happen for newly created production order after go-live,but what about existing production orders how to update production supply area against work center in production order.
Similarly with outbound delivery how to update WM status after go-live.
Thanks in advance

Thanks to both Jurgen and Sander
Regarding production order yes, one way is to re-read PP master data in production orders, but is that the only way to handle this or do we have any other option?
I was aware of re-read PP master data but it will real time consuming and also if it will problematic for already released or partially confirmed production orders.

How to bifurcate production order and purchase order

hi all,
is it possible to bifurcate all open production order and purchase order quantity of items.
ex:i have one item like ffp001 it is showing 100 order quantity.but i want only open purchase quantity.i checked (item master data-->righ click--->Avail to promise) its showing open production and purchase quantity.so i need only open purchase quantity.
Plz tell me the process of Bifurcation of open orders.
thanks&Regards,
P.Pratap

Hi,
By default there is no option , as a workaround you can use below method,
Create 2 warehouse , for example Purchase , Production
When ever you create purchase order use "Purchase" warehouse, Use production warehouse in production
In the "Available to Promise" Report you have warehouse filter option.
Using this filter you achieve can achieve your requirement.
OR
Right click "Filter Table"
Document -> Start with-> PO
Now you can see only PO

How to customize Category and Category items list while creating New Model

Hi,
what the most convenient way to customize the Category and Category items list while creating New Model?
This is standard:
Now, what we want to achieve, is to customize this menu, to:
1. Display in the Category window only f.e. two categories:
- EA Diagrams
- BPM Diagrams
2. In the EA Diagrams, we want to have f.e. four copies of City Planning diagram, each of them should have different elements available, f.e. in the first copy, only Architecture Areas shall be made available, in the second one Architecture Areas and Business Functions, in the third on f.e. only Business Functions shall be made available. Additionally, it should behave like a hierarchy ... meaning you can create the second diagram, only as child (related diagram) of the first diagram etc.
I know, excluding the particular diagrams/diagram elements can be configured using the right/profile settings, but how to:
1. Customize the standard New Model menu window
2. Create copies of City Planning Diagrams with different set-ups
3. Set the relationship between diagrams
Is such a configuration change possible?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Regards,
Rafal

Now, what we want to achieve, is to customize this menu, to:
Question #1. Display in the Category window only f.e. two categories:
- EA Diagrams
- BPM Diagrams
Click on Tools => General Options=> Model Creation
Click on Properties => at right of Default category set
Note : Model template does not work as Category. We can't set. An enchancement request has been open to SAP
In the following example I defined a new default (MyNewDefault.mcc). As you can see only BPMN models are available.
To create a new category set with BPMN choice
a) Copy default.mcc in MyNewDefault.mcc file.
    Go to Tools=>General Options=>Model Creation : Select your new category
    Go to Tools=>General Options=>Model Creation : Edit properties and remove all things you does not want keep
or
b) Go to Tools=>General options=>Model Creation : Edit properties and click on Save as button and specify the file name "MyNewDefault".
    Quit the window.
    Select you new category : Go to Tools=>General Options=>Model Creation : "MyNewDefault"
    Edit properties and remove all things you does not want keep.
    Save you new category
Question #2. How to define copies/replicas of existing diagrams
     Wrote an extension
Question #3. How to make sure, particular diagrams can be used (created) only on predefined "levels" and how to set the parent-child relationship, so that PD enforced it directly when creating a new diagram.
     Specify yours conditons in your extension attached to your model
     Example : When the user want create a child diagram : You can display a list of Parent Diagrams to select from.
     You can set in your extension by VBScript parent-child relationship
Question #4 In the EA Diagrams, we want to have f.e. four copies of City Planning diagram, each of them should have different elements available, f.e. in the first copy, only Architecture Areas shall be made available, in the second one Architecture Areas and Business Functions, in the third on f.e. only Business Functions shall be made available.
If I understand well your question. I suggest to take a look in
Repository=>Administration=>Objects Permission Profile
You can specify objects to show, mask, deactivate at model level.
You can specifiy your own metadata.
But I'm not sure you can mask, deactivate functions following diagram selection. It seem to specific.

Hi, thank you for your replies, I found out few things about my servlet, and its portability
and i have few questions, although i marked this topic as answered i guess its ok to post
I am using javax.servlet.context.tempdir to store my files in that servletcontext temporary directory. But i dont know how to give hyperlink
of the modified files to the user for them to download the modified files.
What i am using to get the tempdir i will paste
File baseurl = (File)this.getServletContext().getAttribute("javax.servlet.context.tempdir");
System.out.println(baseurl);
baseurl = new File(baseurl.getAbsolutePath()+File.separator+"temp"+File.separator+"files");
baseurl.mkdirs();so i am storing my files in that temp/files folder and the servlet processes them and modifies them, then how to present them as
links to the user for download ?
and as the servlet is multithreaded by nature, if my servlet gets 2 different requests with same file names, i guess one of them will be overwritten
And i want to create unique directory for each request made to the servlet , so file names dont clash.
one another thing is that i want my servlet to be executed by my <form action> only, I dont want the user to simply type url and trigger the servlet
Reply A.S.A.P. please..
Thanks and regards,

Control of serial numbers in productions (parts and final product serials)

Hi,
We are starting using our production module in SBO 9.0 PL11 and it is all quite messy.
We need to manufacture an item that has a serial number made of parts, some of which have serial numbers. Just imagine a car. The car will have its own serial number, but the engine, the radio and so on will have their own serial numbers. But the cables, tyres, etc do not have a serial of their own.
We set a BOM model, made of every part (with or without serial) and set every line to manual.
Then we place a PO for our parts, and then do a Goods Receipt and enter the individual items' serials.
Then, we issue a Production order for our final product made of all of our parts in the BOM. Then we release it for production.
Next, it all gets messi. If we create a receipt from production, we can issue the serial number of each of our final products.
If we create an Issue for Production, we can choose what serials to pick for production.
Big problem is that we loose all traceability. There is no way (or we can't find it) to know what are the serials of the parts that created the final product.
Not only this, issue for production looks (serial number transaction report-wise) looks like a goods issue, so just a way to decrease your parts stock. And receipt of production looks like a goods receipt. So you just now you received something for production or that you issued it to production, but there doesn't seem to be a link between them. No traceability at all.
Can anyone throw some light into this? I am sure we are doing something really wrong, but can't see what.

Hi,
1. But how do we control what serial numbers for each part we used to create the final product specific serial? (I use engine #003 and radio #376) to create product with serial #076. And we always produce in quantities greater than 1.
Please provide an sample process production with FG item and components with required serial format to check
2. This query is not returning any rows. I am inputing a final product code, with production orders, and nothing shows up.
As mentioned, the above query works for batch managed items. Once we conclude process, I can try modify above query to meet your purpose.
3. It sounds really complicated to have to open both receipt and issue to track a single manufacturing operation.
You can use relationship map option to view both issue and receipt for single production.
4. Besides that, what is the exact workflow? I don't quite understand issue and receipt, should I run both independently?
Standard work flow for production order:
1. Create bill of material
2. Create planned production order based on above BOM
3. Make sure required components are arrived.
4. Change planned to released status.
5. Issue components to production by issue production
6. Receive finished item from production through receipt from production.
Thanks & Regards,
Nagarajan

SQVI Report for SAP CRM Product Hierarchy and its Product

Hi
How to create a SQVI report for generating a list for SAP CRM Product Hierarchy which should show the outputs->Level 1, level 2, level 3 and level 4 categories and its products?
I tried COMM_Hierarchy table and Comm_product but not able to achieve this requirement.
or Is there any chance of getting related tables so that I could try more for this requirement.
In which table both product id and its category Id can be found?
Pravin

Thanks DJ
Is there any possibility to get a report for product hierarchy in SQVI ?
say in SAP CRM system, the product category is maintained in COMM_HIERARCHY as
Parent category Id->
                                Level2 Category Id->
                                                                 Level 3 Category Id->
Level 4 category Id ->
Product Id's
(I understood the link between Level 4 category id and product id with your info.) but not able to achieve the requirement fully.
Is there any possiblity to achive for generateing a report?

Adding fixed cost in production order and creating liability

Dear All,
We are manufacturing one of our grade of material in a plant which we do not own.We pay some fixed charges to the owner of that plant @ Rs150 PMT produced in that plant.This fixed charges is to be included in the production order and at the same time liability for that fixed charges is also to be created so that payment can be made to that vendor.
For charging this expenses to the production order we have created one activity type and one secondary cost element.But with this the liability can not be created.
Please advice how to proceed in this circumstances.
Regards,
Shivaji

hi
I am following this thread...but want to add some views on this..
As I understood from your requirement that you are sending this material to a third party for some conversion with a fixed charge...so you must have a conversion contract with that party. In my views the process should be...
1. Conversion contract with the party (MM)
2. Material will be received from third party with conversion cost at the time of GR (MM)
     Example... Original cost + fixed conv cost = GR value
3. Invoicing ... MIRO ..Party will be credited at fixed conversion cost
4, When the same material is issued to another prod order the GI will be at cost as per sl.2
   Please revert back if you have any question
