Renaming Item codes

Hi
What will be consequences if you rename the item codes in the database? that is after having the opening balances done for some items and some items are used in POs.
Thanks
SV Reddy

Hi,
If you rename a item and then create an order for that item, you will be able to change the code of the item since no formal document or transaction was created for that item.
Regarding the order, you will not be able to cancel the order since B1 will look for updating the ordered amount of the item and since the item does not exist you will not be able to cancel the order.
The correct way to work in that case is to cancel the order and then cancel the item.

How i Rename Item Code and Description

Dear All,
Can you please tell me how i change Item code and item description in sap b1 8.8.

This can be very annoying. If there's a typo in the product code, we cannot update it anymore (since there are already transactions with this product) and the item is not displayed in the correct place when the item list is sorted on the item code. We can start a new product with the correct code and transfer the items in stock to the new product code, but then all the current transactions are still linked with the old/deprecated product. Very annoying.
If someone could find a method to rename the item code without losing the linked transactions, this would really be helpful. Thanks!

How I can know which row is parent item code or child item in matrix?

Hi,
In marketing document, when insert a item into contents page, if it is a BOM then all child item will be inserted into matrix automatically. My question is when i view the rows in matrix how i can know which row is normal master item and which row is a child item row? From the UI, i can only see the child item code looks readonly but how i can know it in my add-on code? I tried to get the edittext box object from item No. cell, but i can't find any difference.
Thanks!

Sorry, i found an issue when i try to retrieve the BOM Type column value. I am in adding mode, when i insert a BOM with components, the bom type will appears as "Component of a Sales BOM". But in the event, when I try to get the value from this cell (it is combobox), it gives another value which is not same with the one it appears in the matrix. Is anyone know how to solve my problem?
Thanks!

Multiple Item Codes in a MRP Generated PR

Dear Sir,
We have a requirement to have "Multiple Item Codes" in a single PR . The PR are generated thru MRP . The criterion to have multiple Items in a single PR is that a PR will contain multiple Items codes pertaining to the same Material-Group .
We have come to know that for this MD15 tcode can be used . But the problem with this is that there is manual effort required for clubbing of multiple Items in a single PR from the planned order .
We look forward for some automatic way for handling the above requirement .
Request you to kindly help me on the above issue please .

Duplicate Item code

Hi All,
My query goes like this
SELECT DISTINCT(T0.[ItemCode]), T0.[ItemName], T1.[OnHand] as STOCK_IN_METER, T2.[Price] as BASE_PRICE, T0.[U_Length_In_Meter],T1.[OnHand]/T0.[U_Length_In_Meter] as STOCK_IN_PIECE, T0.[U_Weight_kgm], T1.[OnHand]* T0.[U_Weight_kgm] as TOTAL_KG FROM OITM T0 INNER JOIN OITW T1 ON T0.ItemCode = T1.ItemCode INNER JOIN OINM T2 ON T0.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode WHERE T1.[WhsCode] ='03' and T0.[ItmsGrpCod] ='102' and T1.[OnHand] <>0
Why Duplicate item code is coming and how to solve that?
Regards,
Rupa Sarkar

Hi Rupa,
There could be many different Prices under OINM for one item. You can only use OITM.LastPurPrc or a specific price under a specific price list for a item.
Thanks,

Duplicate Item Codes

Every item has 12 digits code.
Reason of duplicate item code opening:
1. Different description formats for same part
2. Different unit of measurement
3. Different export place(e.g. China and India)
4. Different old code
5. Same use of part in different system leads to different catalog
so different code
Due to these reason the person who create code for items can’t
differentiate between the new item and existing item code. This
leads to opening of new item code for an existing code and hence
duplicate code.

Hello,
I think application do not help you with this. This is business problem not application problem. In my company a few person can create items and a few person can request new items. This process should be centralized and you have make some procedure in your organization. You can make some rules to valid new item before creating it.

Item Code Auto Generation Based on User defined Tables

I need the Item code like
PRODUCT TYPE-ITEMGROUP-ITEMCODE-SUBITEM-BRAND-COLOR e.g .FG-01-01-00-001-00.
I created the following User define Tables and link to Item Master data
U_PRO             - FOR PRODUCT TYPE
U_GROUP        - FOR ITEM GROUP
U_ITEMCODE    - FOR ITEMCODE
U_SUBITEM       - FOR SUB ITEM
U_BRD              - FOR BRAND NAME
U_COLOR         - FOR COLOR
i need a formatted search in Item code to fetch the codes from the user defined table
i tried with the following
SELECT T5.[Code]'-'T2.[Code]'-'T3.[Code]'-'T4.[Code]'-'T0.[Code]'-'T1.[Code] FROM [dbo].[@BRD] T0 , [dbo].[@COLOR] T1, [dbo].[@GROUP] T2, [dbo].[@ITEMCODE] T3, [dbo].[@SUBITEM] T4, [dbo].[@PRO] T5 INNER JOIN OITM T6 ON T5.Code = T6.U_PRO WHERE
T5.[Code] = T6.[$U_PRO] AND
T2.[Code] = T6.[$ U_GROUP] AND
T3.[Code] = T6.[$U_ITEMCODE] AND
T4.[Code] = T6.[$U_SUBITEM] AND
T0.[Code] = T6.[$U_BRD] AND
T1.[Code] = T6.[$U_COLOR]
showing errors. Can any one help me regarding this. I badly need the query for Auto generation of Itemcode

Item Codes-Automatic(urgent)

Hi All,
I want to define Item Code as Default i.e In SAP How we are getting the Default numbering for eg.1,2,3,4.........I want in the same way for the Item Code.IS IT POSSIBLE through Query based FMS or any other way??
Thanks in Advance.
mona

Dear Mona,
In order to resolve the issue, please do the following steps :-
1. Create a Initial Item code I0000 manually in the application.
2. Save the following query :-
Select max(Itemtype)
+ cast(substring( max(Itemcode), 2, len(max(Itemcode)))
+ 1 as nvarchar(10)) from OITM
Where Itemtype = $[OITM.Itemtype]
3. Create a formatted search based on the above query and assign it to the itemcode field. (Open Item master in add mode )
4. Then select refresh the formatted search regularly with the Item description change.
5. Then Go to item master data in add mode put something in item code field and then type the correct item description and click tab.
Now your Itemcode field will display as "I0001".

SBO 2007 PLD AR invoice item code not printing

Hi,
We have a problem which just started yesterday on an installation that has been running fine for a long time. The PLD format for the AR Invoice usually prints the row ItemCode no problem. Since yesterday it started printing the item's manufactirers number instead. If we changed the default layout to the SAP supplied layout the problem was the same. Went in to the customised PLD and amended it to one field and then back to the ItemCode now it does not print anything in that field, and nor do the system provided PLDs either, although they have/can not be amended.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Simon

Hi Thanks for the replies,
The system is on SP00 PL49. There are no add-ons, and certainly no add-on have been removed or added recently. The AR invoice PLD has been in use for at least six months without modification. The field for item code in the PLD looks fine, if I amend it to show, say, the INV1 warehouse code instead, it works fine. If I switch it back to Itemcode it print nothing. If I check the table it looks fine also. It is very strange that the same symptom is experienced in the customer modified PLD and system default PLDs
Any ideas?
Simon

Identical item codes in two different warehouses

We currently have several items that exist in two warehouses. We are using SAP Business One, 8.81 PL09, DTW 88.1.7. All of our items from warehouse A have pulled without any errors. We are using a ItemGroupCode of 100 (default) for both warehouses, and managing the items by warehouse. Attempting to use DTW to pull the identical items into B, we receive an error of Item code 'ABC1234' already exists error 65171. My guess is that we will need to use a separate ItemGroupCode for each warehouse. I'm sure that other people out there have had the same issue. Thank you.

Hello Friend,
You should check item in csv or txt file that is there any duplicate itemcode in for source file.
Because itemgrpcod can be same for all materials.
Thanks

Start with this    SELECT     ffv1.description || ffv2.description || ffv3.description
     FROM mtl_system_items_b msi
          fnd_flex_values_vl ffv1,
          fnd_flex_values_vl ffv2,
          fnd_flex_values_vl ffv3,
    WHERE ffv1.flex_value = msi.segment1
      AND ffv1.flex_value_set_id = 1010291
      AND ffv2.flex_value = msi.segment2
      AND ffv2.flex_value_set_id = 1010292
      AND ffv3.flex_value = msi.segment3
      AND ffv3.flex_value_set_id = 1010293
      AND msi.organization_id = &organization_id and msi.inventory_item_id = &inventory_item_id You will have to change the value set ids above. You can find those id's by going to the KFF definition screen for items.
Hope this helps
