Required inventory level in Item Master

Hi,
                    In the item master data in Inventory tab we have minimum inventory,maximum inventory and also required level.What is the function of that field.Because it is not filled automatically even after the stock level goes below minimum inventory level.Can somebody explain?
                                                                                Regards,

Hi Sekar,
The required inventory level in Item Master with the following function:
In the Required (Purchase UoM) field, the system displays the quantity to keep the stock at the minimum level.
If you select Release Stock Below Minimum Level in the Document Settings, the system issues alerts when the quantity goes below the minimum. The system does not let you enter stock documents when the stock reaches its maximum quantity.
Thanks,
Gordon

  • Required (Purchasing UoM) in Item Master

    What is u2018Required (Purchasing UoM)u2019 in the Planning tab of Item Master? What is the purpose of setting this value?  There is a validation that this value must be between the MIn and Max value. Why?

    The following is the Help by SAP for these Fields:
    Enter the minimum, maximum, and required inventory levels for this warehouse.
    In the Required (Purchase UoM) field, the system displays the quantity needed to keep the stock at the minimum level.
    The system:
    ●     Issues alerts when the quantity goes below the minimum (Release Stock Below Minimum Level in Document Settings must be selected)
    ●     Does not let you enter stock documents when stock reaches maximum quantity

  • Itemcost column table at warehouse level in item master

    I have an issues regarding the item cost in Item master --> Inventory Data tab when we select Valuation method either Standard or Moving average we can see the itemcost (Column) value at warehouse level but for FIFO method we cant see the itemcost column.
    Can any one tell me in which table the itemcost value is stored for FIFO method.? I can see the itemcost of a FIFO valuation method only when i do issue for production there i will get item cost but i want to know the itemcost value at production order level only for FIFO method because based upon the itemcost only my process cost is calculated.

    Dear Pavan,
    The Item Cost column is not shown in the Item Master Data for items using FIFO Valuation Method. This is because a FIFO cost layer is created as Items are received to stock. Hence, it is possible that for one warehouse, several FIFO layers exist (depending on the different FIFO cost).
    You can also see this information in the Stock Posting List.
    I hope the above helps.

    Thanks

    Dear Gordon,
    Thanks for replying me.Yes,there are multiple add-ons are running on client. There is no work done with SAP inventory. So you can consider that it's a problem of vanilla SAP B1.

  • Serial attribute and org attribute problems with item master

    IF i want to unassign an item from an org, how would i do tht
    The check is not updateable in the organization assignment tab
    Secondly:
    When i try to make an existing item serial controlled, i go to inventory tab on item master and when i change the serial control attribute GENERATION then "For some items it says APP-INV-05525: Either On Hand quantity or pending transactions exist for item, cannot change this value"
    But for same item if i choose GENERATION sales order issue than it works fine.
    Thirdly:
    How would i Use generated serial numbers..how to assign them or use them for issuing and recieving

    Regarding the 1st part of your query: Unassigning item from an Org
    You cannot unassign an item that way (by unchecking the Assigned checkbox).
    You have 2 options:
    1) Delete the item from the respective Org if it is not yet transacted in that org.
    Navigation : Items-> Delete Items
    Once selecetd this will open deletion Group screen, please enter a new group name and description and for type select Item from LOV and then in details Tab enter your item that you want to be taken out.
    Save the transaction and then click on Delete group button at the bottom of the screen --> this will raise a concurrent request.
    If it is already transacted in the respective org from where you want to delete it then system will not allow to delete the item for audit trail purpose.
    2) You can make the item 'Inactive' to prevent transactions or ordering (purchasing/sales) you can uncheck the appropriate attributes on that item in the org (assuming your attributes controls allow it at org level rather than master level).
    Regarding Serial number generation options a) At Receipt and b) At Sales Order Issue:
    a) At Receipt >> Create and assign serial numbers when you receive the item. As you move the material within inventory and until you issue it out you have to use the serial number for those transactions.
    b) At Sales Order Issue >> Create and assign serial numbers when you issue (ship) the item against a sales order. For this option serial numbers are required at ship confirm.
    Now as per the definitions given above, if there on-hand already exists in your organization(s) then you cannot set the serial generation control "At Receipt". Because in that case all existing on-hands should have serial number assigned which is not the case. On-hand should be zero to set the control "At Receipt". Hence system will prevent you from setting it to "At Receipt" when on-hamd exists. Also in your post you mentioned that you tried to change the control in Item Master, that means serial control generation attribute is set at Master level for you. In this case it will consider on-hands for that item in all the child orgs.
    On the other side if you are setting serial control generation "At Sales Order Issue" then seral number is not required for existing on-hands because it will be created and assigned during ship confirm. So system will not prevent even if on-hand exists.
    Considering the options available in the system your third question (How would i Use generated serial numbers..how to assign them or use them for issuing and recieving) not very clear. The "generated serial numbers" part is creating little confusion in mind as to what you are actually looking for.
    As explained above, if control is set "At Receipt" >> Create and assign serial numbers when you receive the item. Use the Lot/ Serial button on the right hand corner of the material transaction screen and enter the serial number.
    If control is At Sales Order Issue >> Create and assign serial numbers when you issue (ship) the item against a sales order. In the Shipping Transaction screen use Tools >> Serial Numbers option before ship confirm and enter the serial number.
    But if you have set the control as "Predefined" then, assign predefined serial numbers (by generating before hand) when you receive the item. Thereafter, for any material transaction, you must provide a serial number for each unit.
    Hope this helps.

  • Item master

    Hi,
        My client have a new requirement.They have several item master, for every item they have 4 manufacturers and the 4 manufacturers have operational numbers induvidually... the main problem is evry item has different manufacturers and operational numbers. In purchase order if they choose the item  it sholuld display the given manufacturers and operational numbers and they will choose the desired manufacturer and the relavant operational number. is it possible to do that in sap.
    regards,
    Vignesh.R

    Hi Vignesh.....
    Here you can have a simple work around.
    Create a Master Type UDO which has Master Row UDO as child where put the Items in Master UDO and you can link manufacturer to single Item as many as you want. And this way you can achieve your requirement.....

  • "Req. Inv. Level" in the Item Master Data - Inventory Data

    Dear All,
    Would like to ask what is the function of the "Req. Inv. Level" in the Item Master Data -> Inventory Data ??
    What is the different with Min. Inventory?
    And what is the different with Item Master Data -> Planning Data -> Minimum Order Qty ??
    Thank you very much!!!

    Dear All,
    Thank you for your reply.
    i found something strange for the MRP, it is as the following:
    at 06.11.2009, i have created 1 SO : SO123
    qty: 150
    due date: 10.11.2009
    for the Minimum Order Qty in Planning Data: 200
    Lead time: 2 days
    when i run MRP, it can show at 10.11.2009, qty 200 is needed to be purchase (it match the Minimum Order Qty in Planning Data:200)
    But when i set the lead time to be 10 days), it only show at 10.11.2009, qty 150 is needed (in red font).
    Question: seems if the date for the material to arrive (06.11.2009+10 days = 16.11.2009, which is excess the due date of the SO 10.11.2009) is over the due date (10.11.2009) then the MRP will just show qty150 instead of showing qty 200 (the Minimum Order Qty) ? so after that when create the PO by using Order Recommendation Report, it qty in the PO is 150 only, but not 200.
    is it how the MRP in B1 works?
    thank you very much!!

  • Item Master Data - Min Inventory

    In  Item Master Data, the inventory tab, is it possible to change  (Through DTW) the Min.Inventory field? If so which DTW template do I use?

    Hi......

    For this you have to use WarehouseInfo template with which you have to run WarehouseInfo_OITW  and Item Master data template both simultaneously.......
    The template is there in the same folder of Item Master Data......
