ReSizing to existing retail system if activate batch management

Hi Experts
We have a SAP ERP retail system, the retail industry solution was implemented a few years ago.
We are implementing improvements on the existing Retail System (post golive activities), we add modifications in master data activating the batch management to materials.
We will be have additional users too.
We are adding load on the system with the additional users and we are increasing the disk requeriments for additional information (to the batch management) in the existing table records and
to the future records.
We have the latest version of the retail sizing questionnaire "Retail_Sizing_20080715.xls" obtained from http://service.sap.com/sizing but
I need to know if we have to fill it to obtain the new hardware estimation (taking into account it is not a new configuration, is a post golive activity).
Our scenario need a re-sizing because we are extending an existing system by load (additional users) and we need the calculation for disk requeriments to the additional
information and the calculation for CPU and memory requeriments to minimize the impact of these changes on the system performance.
Is the retail sizing questionnaire right to our scenario?
How I can to calculate the new load on the system?
Is right calculate the future load in our retail system monitoring the current resource utilization to CPU, table growth (and including new fields), and memory usage?
Thanks in advanced for your cooperation, please let me know if you need additional information.
omm

additing t o about post system also check if ur having stock for last year last period, it should be also zero
best this will be
make the stock zero and the change the indicator either in MM02 or In tabel MARC
and then post the stock back with batchs
hope this helps

hi,
i want to activate batch management for a material which already has a stock and open Purchasing documents.

program name is RVBCONVMAT2BM
but i am doubtfull it will be delivered with standard SAP, you need to request you from SAP as they charge for this.
this program convert the material to batch and all relevant dependant documents will be updated with batch no.

pasting some description of the program
REPORT rvbconvmat2bm.
Report illustrates the call of function module VBZ0401_CONVERT_OBJECTS

Is it possible to activate Batch Management for a material without Class?

Dear Experts,
Is it possible to activate Batch Management for a material without having Class & Characteristics maintained. As my requirement is to procure Fuels in Batches only with external no. assignment without any parameters to be checked at the time of Goods Receipt? Batches are needed for Accountability purpose.

Please check this answered link:
Batch-classification view
If you want classify a batch, then you should have maintained the batch classification in material master which is either class 022 or class 023 (depends on your batch level set in cusotmizing). The material class 001 has no impact on the batch classifcition, it is what it is: a classification for the material.

Remove stock and revert it to warehouse to activate batch managmt-BestPract

Hello,
My client wants to start using batch management.
To do so Iu2019ve 3 options:
1st u2013 Create a new Plant and replicate on it every material. Transfer the existing stocks to the temporary Plant. Activate Batch Management. Transfer from temporary Plant to the original Plant with the respective batches.
2nd u2013 Create a Sales Order for a temporary Customer with the same internal price and create invoice. Activate Batch Management. Create Purchase Order for a temporary Vendor and make the goods receipt and invoice. Both customer and vendor should balance each other. So does stock accounts.
3rd u2013 Make a goods issue to a specific cost center. Activate Batch Management. Make a goods receipt with movement 501. In this case Iu2019m not shore about the financial implications.
Can anyone help based on the experience for each way should I go???
Thanks,
BMO.

SAP provided two reports which can update or remove BATCH MANAGEMENT INDICATOR and BATCHES without removing the material stocks and documents. We need to close only open physical inventory documents.
The below reports update, all relevant documents based on batch activation/de-activation:
u2022 RVBCONVMAT2BM - Sets the batch management requirement indicator.
u2022 RVBREVMATBM - Removes the batch management requirement indicator
But,these programns will not be available in standard SAP,they has to procured form SAP.

Batch Managment Activation

Hi, friends
I want to activate Batch management at plant level.but there is stock in current period as well as previous period(in marterial master plant stock view).Stock exist unresticted stock,stock at vendor ,Quality Inspection stock.How i will do Zero stock at previous period.
Regards,
Kamlesh

Hi
Batchmanagement activation or deactivation should be done initially.
First go to MM02 & try to activate batch , then the system will give error log.
Read the same.
It looks not only stcoks some other open documents also shouldhave been there.
In that case you have to close all those to activate bacth.
Please try in above lines.

Batch Management Requirement - SD document

hi all,
I am trying to activate batch management in MM02. But it has error:
SD documents exist (orders or deliveries) that have not yet been processed or that have been processed only in part.
It lists two SD document: one SO and one DN
This is the only error the system gives. I am sure the material has no inventory in previous period and this period and no other outstanding document
Then I changed the DN qty to 0, posted it
And I changed the SO qty to 0 or reject the SO item
But system keep giving the above error
Could anyone advise?
Thanks

hai;
First you have to cancel the DN .Take VL09.Reverse the goods movement then take VL02 select the document and delete the items from it and save.
Then goto VA02 and type the SO number and delete the item .and save it.
Now the stock will be greater than zero.
Once again make it as zero and activate the batch management.
Hope this will serve you better
regards.

Automatic batch management for Production order receipt

Hello ,
I have a requirement to setup & activate Batch Management only for Production order Good Receipt . I am looking out for what all configuration / data setup will be required to complete this .
To start with I have following questions .
1. Whether such activation is possible only for Production order Good receipt - 101 mov.type
2. IF yes , is Batch management activation status be at material or plant level .
3. As I need automatic assignment , should I be selecting Internal batch management .
4. What should be selected for valuation for Goods movement in Inventory management.
5. Is it necessary to have batch determination by maintaining Condition tables / Access sequence
6. What would be standard Class / characteristics to be maintained for automatic determination.
Also I will have to work with the running system where Material are already active and have stock in system . What precautions will I have take if I have to activate the Batch Management in a running system.
Appreciate all your expert advise.
Regards,
Lawrei

Thanks Adler for your comments .
With reference to your point , need further clarifications
1. If batch management is selected to material , this means that it will be active for all movement types for Inventory and cannot be restricted to 101 mov.type .
I see that in config node
+Define Batch Creation for Goods Movements+
    +Using this function, you can define for each movement type whether a new+
    +batch is created for a goods receipt and how it is created.+
Can I not restrict batch creation only for 101 movement , but again here I don't have options to select only for Good receipt for order - Tran/Ev type - WF .
& what about below config node
+Define Batch Creation for Production Order / Process Order+
    +In this step you can make the following settings in batch management for+
    +the existing production control profiles:+
Is it possible in this node .
Please advise.
Regards.

Prerequisite of activating batch management

Hello there,
I've seen a lot of posts saying PR, PO, Plan order Production order must be clear before activating batch management for a material. But when we test with our system, it is allowed to activate batch management for the material even there is open PO / planned orders. Only not allowed for open SO.
Would like to confirm what is the real answer. PS, currently we have not made any change to confirgration about batch management. Would it make some difference of system behavior?
Thanks.

Please review the following notes and KBA
30656       Change base unit of measure/batch management requirement
1521082   Error M3530: Change Material to Batch Managed OR Non Batch
                 Managed (field MARA-XCHPF)
533276     Setting batch management requirement
As advised in note 30656, changing the batch indicator can only be performed when there is no existing stock in present and previous period. The system behaves like this due to possible inconsistencies that would occur if you post goods movements for previous periods when there was no batch management.
You will need to delete any open documents and reverse any material movements on this material. If batches (even zero stock batches!) are still assigned to the material you must delete them and reorganize the tables MCH1, MCHA and MCHB.
At this point the flag could be changed.
Please also consider the following...
1) If you want to change the batch management, it is not enough to check for stock. You must also reorganize all existing batches for the material. You can do this using the TA MM73 and MM74 or SARA. After you have reorganized the batches you should be able to change the batch management. The Object to use in the txn SARA is MM_SPSTOCK.
You must first set the deletion flag for the batch using txn MCH2.
2) If you have defined the batch level in the TA OMCE to 'unique at material level' it is not possible to turn off the batch management flag in one plant. You can can only turn it off for all plants at the same time. That means if you want to turn it off, the system checks all plants for the existence of stock. In other words, the batch management flag will be the same for all plants at any time if you use the batch level 'unique at material level'.
I hope this can help!

BATCH MANAGEMENT A

Hi
We want to activate batch management to the materials, the problem is already the material stock exists
iam trying to make stock zero but still iam not able to activate batch management in mmr.
Please let me know how to activate batch management for the material already in use.
chris

Hi Chris,
As per note 30656,
Please 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).
If the problem persists after you have posted the previous period stock,
i would like to logon your system to have a look.
Note 533276 may also be interesting to you.

Kevin

Batch management separately for packaging / fuel material

Hi experts,
to be very clear , batch management is activated for all type of materials like raw material and finished goods.
For packaging material and fuel material i didnt activate batch management.
my issue is to maintain batch for packaging and fuel material with batch no. separately.
if any customization or through any exits / badi ?
i also maintain for stock at batch level .
regards
dks

Hi,
If batch is not activated for Material type packaging / fuel material...and stock /PO/GRN/IV exists for those material, then its impossible to to acitivate batches for those materials whose stock /PO/GRN/IV exists ...
If you want to maintain batches for these material types then you have to reverse all documents and you have to clear all stocks, which will be tedious job.
Better from future when ever you create new material for those material types, then activate the batch management check box.

Activation of batch management -Uploading and creation of new materialBATCH

Dear All,
Good day !!!
We have activated Batch management in our business, whcih was running without BATCH management Active before.Now we have activated the batch management ,Automatic in case of GR creation and by FIFO basis in case of goods movement and SD and PP modules also.
Now every transactions and data are working properly. But we need clarity on the master data upload and inventory upload.
Suppose if we need to carry out the for the same material Batch to be activated or whether we need to go for new material and batch management active , Pleaes clarify on the process and also how we could upload the existing inventory from the existing NON Batch material into BATCH material (Which is created wholly as a new materail with batch)
KIndly provide on the above 2 points which would be helpful for our business.
Thanks and Regards,
Amol.

Hi
I think with the help of FI create a dummy cost centre and issue the material to the cost centre ,
Look no Purchase requisitions or purchase orders are open on the material
activate batch management to material and using 202 movement get back the material .
as the process is very tedious use the help of badis for updating and cancellation if required
this may be only process for activating new batches for material

Batch management - due dates

hi
my location is Chile ..
I would comment as follows:
Within what is the batch management in SAP Business One, specifically when it is done out of a product, you can view the lots available and implement a self-selection button.
This button takes lots available SAP considering the order given, and that follows an alphabetical or numerical order. Companies usually look at the batch management to keep track of due dates for a product, so it would be very important to give an order to the self-selection of lots based on this variable.
Currently to fix this, you define a code of covering a lot Loig based on product expiration date so that they can be downloaded from the inventory then consider this criterion.
Greetings,
Paul Ponce

You have two separate issues here.
The first issue here is activating batch management for a material of which there is inventory. This is not easy. There are many threads out there on this. Here's two of them.
wants to activate batch management for a material which already had a Stock
http://www.sapfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=289203
Basically you have to remove your inventory of the material from the system via a material movement like 562, activate batch management, then bring the material back like via a 561 movement type. You can reload the inventory using 561 directly into the batches you want to create from your exisiting inventory or as SAP suggested, load it as a single batch, then use standard stock movements to transfer the inventory into the actual batches.
Once you do that, you must update the batch records with the proper expiration dates, (MSC2N) for your exisitng inventory.
As far as reinspection, there are many threads on setting that up. Here are some to get you started.

Batch management active

Hi, friends
I want to activate Batch management at plant level.but there is stock in current period as well as previous period(in marterial master plant stock view).Stock exist unresticted stock,stock at vendor ,Quality Inspection stock.How i will do Zero stock at previous period.
Regards,
Kamlesh

Hi,
I you want to activate the batch management, there should be any quants (stocks) left in the storage location, there should not be any open items etc.
You need to take out the whole stock out of the storage location and then try to activate the batch at plant and sloc level, and then you activate the materials in the material master.
Hope it works.

Converting from non-batch to batch management

Hi guys,
Can you tell what is the best strategy to convert a system from non-batch managed to batch managed? Batch management should have been implemented from the start, but my client just realized that mistake. This is knowing that we already have inventory and all kinds of transactional data: purchase orders, sales order, production orders...
I am looking for the less painfull strategy, as detailed as possible.
Thank you.
Fotso

HI,
Hi,
Procedure to be followed to activate Batch Management for Materials: -
1. Mark Deletion Flag for all the Open Purchasing Documents of Materials
2. Technical Completion of Production Orders to cancel open Reservations of Materials
3. Create a Dummy Material for Material (Batch Management Active)
4. Generate details of Unrestricted Stock of Materials as per Bill of Entry
5. Transfer Stock of Materials to Dummy Material using Movement Type "309" in previous period (Stock will be transferred Bill of Entry wise)
6. Activate batch Management for Materials
7. Transfer Stock from Dummy Material to Materials
Note: -
1) If there is stock available in previous period and also stock available in current period then Transfer Posting from Material to Material can be done directly in previous period. (Comparison of Tables MARD and MARDH)
2) In case if there is stock in previous period but no stock available in current period then we have to post an initial stock entry using movement type "561" to generate stock in current period (Here Quantity = Stock in Previous period)
3) Reverse these Material Documents in previous period
There are several SAP notes that give some useful information:
30656 Change base unit of measure/batch mngt requirement
533383 Resetting batch management requirement
533377 Conversion of batch level
I hope this helps!
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran
