Remove Search strategy in MBC2- Batch management

Dear All,
I want to remove the search strategy assigned in the MBC2 for a particular movement type.Though i have deleted the sort sequence and removed the strategy in MBC2,when i am uploading the stock with 561 goods movement it takes me to the classification window.I want to remove this strategy.
Where else do I need to change the settings.
Thanks to all in advance.
Manisha Parulekar

Hi Manisha,
I think you are trying to achieve different thing through different transaction. You are doing 561 which is initial stock upload. If you create a batch of material through 561 and it has class and characteristics assigned to it it will take you to classification view and expect you to fill values of characteristics.
Why you don't need this view/screen? If you don't need class go ahead and delete class from the material master and you should be all set.
However if you need class and then you are deleting it from material master for initial stock it has a lots of other implications like your batch will be inconsistent etc. Hence request you to evaluate about this before taking a call.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Assigning Batch search strategy to material-batch key

I am facing one strange problem. I am creating process order in COR1 for my finished goods FIN1. I have maintained BOM for FIN1 & assigned Semi finished goods SEM1, SEM2 as a BOM component.
I have maintained enough stock of SEM1in batches. Now i am releasing my process order. For component SEM1, the system is automatically assigning the batch number
I have noticed in my process order, for component SEM1 has 2 items, the batch key is as "2" (sytem automatically sets this value) but also has ths same component item, the batch key is as "1", required quantity is 0
Why? What is the importance of this "Batch Key"?
Please guide me
Thanks
lee

Dear,
You have define Batch Strategy with number of splits "say 99", so that system will allow 99 splits for a component while Batch determination.
This is a definition basically for a combination of condition type and access sequence in COB1 you can check in COB3
Suppose materail
SEM1 required quantity is 100 and you have three batches say 50, 70 20,
So system will pick up two batches batch key is as "2"
If requirement quantity is more than 120 then system will paick up three batches and batch key will be "3"
SEM2 there is no requirement of quantity so system showing the batch key is as "1"
Please refer my reply from this thread,
Material Availability check
Hope clear to you.

How system automatically issue the raw material from the old date batches

Hi Abu Fathima,
Batch Determination step as follows:
For that you have to do five important steps or features you have to know OK.
1) Batch number assignment: We use this function to assign a batch with a number that uniquely identifies it OK.
2) Batch Specf: To describe each batch uniquely using like Characteristics and characteristic The values. are allocated in the material master.
3) Batch status management: To indicate weather a batch is usable or unusable: We can set (a) Manually in the batch master record or at goods receipt and (b) Automatically in the usage dissension in quality management.
4) Batch Determination: We can use this function for various criteria to search for batches that are in stock (a) movement type: When posting goods issues (b) When combining suitable components for order types.
5) Where used list: The batch where used list shows the path of the batch from its procurement to its delivery to the customer.
6) Active Ingredient Management: This function is to administrate and process materials with active ingredients that are to be handled in batches OK.
Condition types: Say for x material if we want to determine the batch at the movement type/ plant/order type.
Access Sequence: It will checks weather the batch determination is done with movement type/ plant/ material &
order type/ plant/ material.
Strategy type: We will assign here condition type and Access sequence and as well we have to maintain Class type: 023
sort sequence, batch split
Batch Search Procedure: Here we will define the search procedure and using the condition type here OK.
Batch Search Procedure Allocation and Check Activation: Here we will assign the search procedure to the movement types and for order types as well
HERE THE BELOW FOLLOWING DATA WILL GIVE YOU RIGHT UNDERSTANDING OK:
a) It will looks for the search procedures.
b) It searches through the strategy types in the search procedures for a valid search strategy.
c) Characteristics from the selection class of the search strategy looks for batches with suitable specifications.
d) Then it will looks for weather the batches are available.
e) It sorts the batches that are available according to the sort rule from the search strategy.
f) Then the system selects a proposed quantity with proposed quantity from the search strategy.
Go -
> Logistic General -
> SPRO -
> Batch Management you can find every thing there it self.
Any questions revert me back please.

Batch search strategy based on goods receipt date

Hello,
Can some one help me with setting up Batch search strategy based on goods receipt date currently is on batch number.
Thanks a lot
Thanks!
Best Regards
Srw

Hi
If you want to set up Batch search strategy based on goods receipt date......then you have to create GR Date as one charecteristics in T.Code: CT04 and assign this charecter in Class with respect to class type 023
Then assign this class in Material Master Classification view..
Make sure in Material master, Purchasing view...you have activated Batch management active check box....
Then when ever you do GR in MIGO, In batch tab, In classification field maintain the GR Date..
Then Create sort sequence in T.Code: CU70 and you can maintain in what basis ie)in assending or desending GR Date you have to search the batch..
And then Create Batch Search Statergy in MBC1 and there you assign the sort sequence in Details...
Now you do your regular procedings.....the material Batch will be searched based on GR Date...

Batch Search strategy -"No search Strategy could be found "

Hi
I have a typical problem while perfoming GI through pick list (co27).I have given the Production Order No and standard pick profile (00002) , it was taking me to batch determination .While clicking on the batch detemination , it is giving me the above massages : No search Strategy could be found .When I am exploring in the "Strategy Information " , it is not showing me any Sort Rule " SORT_BY_Batch" .I want this to be populated by defauly while clikcing on the Strategy Info.
Can any body give an idea .
Regards
Jia

Hi Jiaul,
I got your problem.
U r tyring to do batch determination for pick list. But u have defined the batch search strategy in COB1 which is for batch determination for process orders ( in component overview).
U need to create the search strategy using MBC1 (use strategy type ME01 , Plant, material, mvmnt type). This triggers the batch determination in inventory management, which is ur requirement.
Maintain the search strategy for thsi combination ( give the movement type ( for ex. 261) which will be used while u execute the pick list)
Please get back after trying out this.
Thanks & regards

Batch search strategy in WM material staging

Hello all,
I have a issue of batch determination when I do WM material staging through transaction LP12 & further TO creation through transaction LB13.
We have set a batch search strategy in transaction LS51 for WM/Movement level i.e. for WM02. We have defined a search strategy for movt. type 319 with criteria as Shelf life expiry date is >1 day & defined a sort rule as ascending order. Hence our expectation is that system should automatically search for available material batch with First shelf life expiration date. However, we found that the system is picking up the batch which is having shelf expiration date later than the batch available in system which is having early expiry date. I am unable to trace the cause for this . As I know the batch search strategy for WM TO related setting is in LS51 & we have already maintained the same as explained earlier.
Can anybody help me in resolving this issue? Do you know anything more specific settings required to fix up this problem.
Thanks much in advance for your kind help in this regard.
Parag K.

You need to configure WM Stringent FIFO strategy forstock removal in this scenario. Other Strategies for stock removal don't always guarantee that stock is picked in the order of nearest SLED. Please check

plzz help me out as help will be definately rewarded.

Hi,
Changing from tick to untick or untick to tick of Batch Management indicator follow the procedure (Changing of status in Material Master Record)
Changing the status of the material from Uncheck to checked or viseversa is possible only if the following conditions are met
1 Check the Status of material MMBE
2 There should not be any open Purchase Order Use SE16 & Table EKPO Give the material number for which we have to find the Open Pos; Alternateively ME2M can also be used
3 There should not be any Open Production Order Use SE16 & Table AFPO Give the material number for which we have to find the Open Production Orders
4 There sould not be any Sales Order Use SE16 & Table VBAP Give the material Number for which we have to find the Open Sales Orders
5 There should not be any Purchase Requistion Use SE16 & Table EBAN Give the material Number for which we have to find the Open PRs
6 There should not be any Stock in Transit MB5T
7 There should not be any Plant availability Stock MB53
8 There should not be any Reservation MB25
9 Previuos Period Stock should be zero Use MM03 with Plant Stock & Storage Loc. View If Stock Exists follow the Procedure mentioned in next chapter to close
10 Stock requirement should be zero MD04
11 There should not be any open Delivery Use SE16 & Table LIPS Give the material Number for which we have to find the Open PRs
12 There should not be any open Warehouse Transfer Request Use SE16 & Table LTBP Give the material Number for which we have to find the Open PRs
13 There should not be any open Warehouse Transfer Request Use SE16 & Table LTAP Give the material Number for which we have to find the Open PRs
14 The Batch Corresponding to the plant has to be set for deletion indicator MSC2N
If previous period stocks exist, we can make a withdrawal posting as follows
1. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using
movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period
stock are identical.
2. Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock
together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
If any of the above Stock Exists it has to be closed;If Any of the stock exists we cannot uncheck.
After closing all the open items;the related business documents viz Purchase Orders,Production Orders,Delivery,etc has to be Archived
Archiving has certain criteria while doing Archiving Process-- Systematic Archival is the Key factor i.e relationship diagram has be met.

How to remove Batch Management Check in the Material

I have one requirement to remove batch management check in the materials which should not be deleted.
I created a testing material with batch management check on and put in material through 561, then did good issue for
scrapping to remove the stock out. So existing stock is zero in Material Master.
Then deleted the batch in MSC2N by putting all the delete checks on. There was just one batch created for the material.
Then ran transaction MM74 to archive, the spool request is as below:
MCHB: 000000000010000498 2002 1002 D000000200 entry archived                             1 000000000010000498
Archiving Session Number                                  000004
Number of Written Data Objects                                1
Size of Archiving Session in MB                           0,011
Proportion of Header Data in %                             96,7
Then in MMPV changed the closing period to may as all the postings were performed in april.
Now still when I go and remove the batch management check in MM02 Purchasing view, still gives we DISPLAY ERROR message:
The batch management requirement cannot
be changed for the follow
Batches already exist.
ANY IDEAS why its not allowing me to remove the check as I guess I have performed all the steps required.

Check whether the batch master is still exists in MSC3N .if it ia archived it should not be avialble in MSC3N
Refer note:30656
Reason and Prerequisites
The message that stocks still exist refers not only to stocks in the current period, but also to stocks in the previous period.
The reason for checking previous period stocks is that postings can also be made to the previous period when entering goods movements. This would result in inconsistencies if the base unit of measure had meanwhile been changed.
Solution
Check whether stocks still exist for the previous period by displaying; for example, the plant stock view or storage location stock view of the material. You do this by selecting "Extras -> Previous period -> Prev. pd SLoc. stock or Prev. pd plant stock".
If previous period stocks exist, you can make a withdrawal posting as follows:
1. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period stock are identical.
2. Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
You can now try to change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator again.
Since the posting of the previous period values to zero is identical with posting to the stocks of the current period, you should reverse the above stock postings (that is, the stock from the previous period should be booked in again) to make sure that the stock values from the previous and the current periods correspond to the state before the change. However, note that the postings are then carried out using the changed master data from the current period (for example, account determination and so on)

Remove Batch Management and Split Valuation Dependencies

Hi,
I need to remove Batch Management Indicator and Split Valuation for a material. Which one should I do first? Are these dependent on one another?
Thanks,
Jograd

You are correct. It did cause lots of error when i tried to do it in test client.
I am trying to remove the valuation category of one right now. It has zero stock and no open documents.
I saw in note Note 155874 - Change valuation category in material master that you need to do this:
2. If you change from split to joint valuation, no valuation data must
exist for a valuation type.
I dont know where to start doing that? Because there is not data for the material. However i noticed that there is valuation for previous period. do i need to delete that too? But there are no stocks for the previous period.
Please help.
Thanks,
Jograd

How do I get the Batch Search Strategy Type in an ABAP program?

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to filter the Batch Search Strategy Type in a BADI. For example, I have a Strategy Type ZD01 which is a Customer/Material combination. This has been created and checking VCH3 confirms that.
For example, I am implementing BADI VB_BD_SELECTION~PRESELECT_BATCHES and will put the filtering in there. For example, I go to transaction VL01n then create outbound delivery with order reference, in the PRESELECT_BATCHES portion, I will do a filtering that if Batch Search Strategy Type = ZD01, then do some code.
My problem is, I don't know how to retrieve the Strategy Type. I can use the parameters I_KOMKH-KUNNR (Customer) and I_KOMPH-MATNR (Material) of method PRESELECT_BATCHES to retrieve the Strategy Type but I don't know how.
Any tips?

Enable Batch Management w/o removing Stock

Hi!
We would like to start using the feature of batch number in SAP BO.
Right now all item are set to "Manage Item by None" on the General Tab under Item Master Data. We manage batches in a separate Excel spreadsheet. Not good, I know
Is there a way to enable Batch Management w/o removing the stock?
If not, what would be the best way to solve the problem?
Thanks for your help,
Christian

Yes that is how we are going to do it:
1. Run an Inventory Audit Report, export it to Excel and divide *** Value/ *** Qty
2. Create a Goods Issue for all Inventory with price calculated in 1.
3. Set "Manage by" in Item Management to "Batches"
4. Run Inventory Audit Report see how much was released at what cost in step 2
5. Create a goods receipt in the same order (and same price)
as stock was released in step 2
Unfortunately I don't see a way to do this other than manually!?

Batch derivation with fields in receiver search strategy Rule.

Dear All,
In receiver search strategy rule i wanted to give a character, but when i do so i get the below error message.
Instead of the characteristic , use the field
Message no. VBDRV011
Diagnosis
The characteristic you entered is assigned to an object characteristic and batch field .
System Response
Object characteristics cannot be changed.
You must make changes to the corresponding batch field. These are then copied automatically to the classification.
Procedure
Instead of using the characteristic , use the field
Now this because in the character additinal data (TCode CT04) Value is coming from Table Name: MCHA and Field Name: CHARG.
Hence I decided to use the field CHARG in receiver search strategy rule. But when I did so i got the following error message
This field does not exist or is not allowed for derivation
Message no. VBDRV009
Please suggest as to how do i bring the filed in?
Regards
Vinod

Hi Vinod,
Batch derivation is used to transport characteristic value from one batch (Sender batch) to another Batch of Header material (Receiving Batch) during Production / Process Order Execution.
Now field which you have assign CHARG is non another but it is field of batch No.itself and it is not possible to change Batch No. of Receiving Batch because it is already assign and can not be change.
You can use only those characteristic or fields which represent the characteristic of Batch for example Shelf life expiry, manufacturing Date etc.

Removal of batch management for a material in MM02

Hi all,
I Have a problem in removing the batch management in the purchasing view of a material.The error is 'Batch management requirement cannot be changed,Batch already exists'.
PO is created on this material.GR is done and that GR is reversed.There is no stock in the previous period.In MSC2N batch is deleted.I tried even after deleting the item in the PO.Again system is giving the same error.
Now how can i remove the batchmanagement for the material.
Thanks,
Rambhupal reddy

your batch is probably only flagged for deletion. You have to run archiving, Transaction SARA for object MM_SPSTOCK to get rit of the batch record.
