Returnable Package

hi,
i have created a material(X) for returnable packaging purpose with material type as VERP(ret.pack) and maintained item cat grp as LEIH. now when i wanna post the stock through MB1C the system is not allowing me to do so.(may be this material type will not allow to post the stock). Here are my queries
1) how/where do i need to create the link to my packaging material. say X needs to be packed in Y and i have to c both materials X and Y in my sales order the moment i enter X in line item of a sale order.
2) when i create a sales order with only X material, and as the stock is not posted yet(as the system is not allowing me to do) how should i post the stock. the system is taking me to the availability overwiew screen where the confirmed quantity is zero and has picked only one schedule line.
hope my question is clear.
expecting the ans. for both the queries.
thanks in advance.
cheers,
anil.

but when i create a sales order the availability overview screen shows me the confirmed qty as zero only. and only one schedule line is been picked up in which confirmed qty is zero.
please answer this query too.

  • Returnable packaging-vendor and customer sides

    Dear Experts,
    I have searched through the internet as well as on this forum but I was not able to find the information I am looking for.
    I have the following issue concerning the Returnable packaging process in SAP:
    I need to gather overall information concerning the returnable packaging.
    The process is as follows:
    My vendor provides me with some materials that come with returnable packaging (e.g.Pallet01) -> Assuming I am just a middleman, I sell the goods to my customer and also send them on the same Pallet01 (one day my customer must return the pallet to me and I must return it to the vendor).
    - What are the settings I must set in customizing and in material master?
    - How would the process look like in the system (for example are there specific settings I must make to be able to see the packaging per customer in MB58 (I have set item category group LEIH in material master - is this the only setting to assure this, plus I am not sure if the field where I should put LEIH is General item category group or Item category group - both on Sales: sales org.2 tab in material master; Plus is there any way I can control what settings does item category group have? When I go to SPRO Sales and Distribution->Sales->Sales Document->Sales Document Item->Define Item Category Groups - there is no option to click inside the certain group))?
    - In what report I can see how many Pallets I owe to the vendor and how many Pallets each customer should return to me (is there one report that would show everything or do I have to use separate reports)?
    - How do I proceed if the vendor decides to invoice me for the pallets or I decide to invoice my customer (I would like to know the best practices)?
    I tried to enter packaging from vendor to special stock type M (with move 501 M added to the goods receipt for PO), than it's working to see it in the stock report assigned to that particular vendor. But what if (and this is the case) I am selling the goods on the same packaging to my customer? Cause I am not able to add the pallets from special stock M to the outbound deliver.
    Thank you in advance,
    Krystyna

    Dear Vikram Shukla,
    In fact, my question is more related to how to link the returnable packaging with the vendor - raw materials combination (PIR), which for my understanding is more related to sourcing part.
    Anyway, could you please advice how could I transfer my question to MM forum?
    Many thanks in advance and best regards-

  • How to enter a returnable packaging material during inbound delivery?

    Hi,
    How do you add a returnable packaging material from vendor as a line item in the inbound delivery? When I try to add a LEIH type material as a line item in the inbound delivery (VL32N), the following error is displayed:
    "No item category exists (Table T184L EL VERP  ELP)"
    Thanking you in advance,
    Sreelakshmi

    HI.
    Please reffer the below link.
    ERROR : No item category exists (Table T184L LB VERP  )
    Error while creating I/B delivery: No item category exists (Table T184L EL)
    1) EL = is the delivery type you are using for Returns to Vendors
    2) VERP = is the Item Category Group in the material master of
    3) ELP= Item Usage
    You have to add the missing configuration as follow:

  • Returnable packaging in customer consignment process

    I have this scenario:
    I have returnable packaging (drums) that have been setup as non valuated materials in SAP. The item category in deliveries in YB10.
    These drums have serial numbers. Since some maintenance needs to be done on these drums from time to time, therefore, equipment's need to be created for the drums. The equipment number and serial number are the same and the serial number profile is setup in such a way that the equipment is created automatically when the serial number is created
    When the drums are in stock, the status is ESTO
    Now, in the normal order to cash process, this is what happens:
    1) Sales order - order is created for a material
    2) Delivery - The drums are added to the delivery along with the material through a packing proposal. A serial number is specified for the drum and the order is PGI'ed to the customer
    At this point, the status of the equipment/serial number changes to ECUS
    3) Billing - normal billing (drums are billed)
    4) Return delivery YBG5 - the empty drum is accepted back into warehouse
    After PGR, the status of the serial number changes back to ESTO
    During the customer consignment process, this is what is happening:During the consignment fill up when stock goes from warehouse to customer, the status of the serial number is changing to ECUS
    During consignment issue, since we can only issue whatever material is there, the same serial number that was used during fill up is being used
    However, when we do a delivery against the consignment issue, we are getting an error that the status of the serial number is ECUS and it is not suitable for movement
    Since consignment stock is still owned by the company until an consignment issue is done, I am wondering whether SAP is behaving correctly by changing the status of the serial umber to ECUS after the consignment fill up.
    Is there a way to use the same serial number in the consignment issue as the consignment fill up?
    Please reply urgently

    Try the following
    Go to OMWB transaction and simulate the posting using your plant, material and movement type
    The simulation will show the standard postings based upon goods movement
    E.G. 601 GBB VAX valuation class, account
    Identify your accounts assigned to both sides of the posting and then you should be able to re-assign the g/l accounts to the appropriate modifier string within OBYC
    Hope it helps

  • Material type for Vendors Returnable packaging material

    Dear all,
    I have a scenario where in i am recieving co2 gas from my vendor against a PO.
    He is supplying it with cylinders i want to keep track of the cylinders and afetr using the gas want to return the cylinder to vendor.
    Now the doubt arises, under which material type should I create this cylinder.
    Doubt 1
    I thougt of creating under the material type : LEIH, but this material type also contains the purchasing, accounting, sales view and same time in the config of the material type LEIH, value updating is not ticked, which is making me confuse.
    Doubt 2
    What I felt is, LEIH should be used for the our owns company returnable packaging material , which will go to the customer , but again for this also, these material should be valuated, since they belongs to our own stock , so why in standard SAP, value updation is not there.
    Doubt 3
    Keeping above 2 points in mind, what should be material type for vendor's returnable packaging material , where I want only qty tracking.
    Regards
    Nitin

    You can copy LEIH and create your own Materia Type say ZLEI. For this material type you can have only General Plant / Storage Data1 view enabled.
    Remember, there are 2 materials here:
    1. Gas
    2. Returnable packaging (cylinder)
    You can receive gas on unit basis if you dont want exact tracking (ie in KG). Use any procurement material type.
    When you create the PO only mainitan Gas as the material.
    When you do the goods receipt against this PO, Click on RTP button, this will create a new line item, automatically and will suggest movement type 501+M. Here enter the no. of cylinders.
    You will be able to track the movement of cylinders.

  • Returnable packaging - vendor related

    Hello SAP Gurus,
    In my current project, I meet following situations regarding vendor related returnable packaging:
    1. Packaging belongs to vendor;
    2. Packaging belongs to us (purchaser);
    3. Packaging is rent by us (purchaser).
    Our current solution is to use "Transport Equipment" - 501/M to receive such packaging when do GR of materials. But the constrains here is that warehouse stuff needs to know which material requires returnable packaging when do MIGO. And they have to manage this manually in an excel file: what material requires returnable packaging.
    Now my question is: how could we link this returnable packaging with the materials + material vendor.
    1. Possible to manage in PIR then flows to PO? (If not considerring development).
    2. If consider to generate 2nd line in PO:
    1) Again, how could Purchase Order creator know this material is required to generate 2nd line for returnable packaging?
    2) For packaging belongs to vendor, which is non-valuated and account assignment will be required;
    Many thanks in advance for your precious input and with best regards-
    Mengyu

    Hi,
    In the 1st case, Packaging belongs to Vendor:
    This is Non-valuated but stock update material type (you can maintain this exclusively for Vendor ownership & Rented since these are not your company owned)
    501-M is fine with this type. To track this in WM to identify for returns you can give a code description to be easily identifiable to trace it for the return. You/user dont have to add a second line item in the PO, but can directly enter in 501M
    In the 2nd case, packaging belongs to your own company, you can define a material type with value and qty update which can also be managed in MIGO. For this I presume you must have issued the materials to vendor before MIGO which can be received in MIGO as company's own stocks.
    Hope this helps

  • Returnable Packaging as a delivery line item

    Hi,
    I have this requirement:
    Whenever certain materials are purchased, they always come with returnable packaging. I have setup packing proposal and created packing confition records using packing determination type RCPT and key Material.
    When I create an inbound delivery (type EL) for a purchase order for a material, I am able to determine the packing material as a Handling unit.
    However, I want to add the packing material as a separate line item in the delivery.
    I have maintained the Item category determination: EL + LEIH + PACK = ZELN.

  • Inspection type for customer return of returnable package material

    Hi Guys,
             I send the returnable package to the customer , while reciving that material to my stock (when the customer return to me ) i want to create outbound delivery with out order refference .
    I want system to create inspection lot after doing PGR of the outbound delivery .
    The inspection lot sould have the option of result recording and stock posting when i do usage decission
    This requirement not met by inspection type 06 , i want to create new inspection type to met above mentioned all requirement .
    please provide the steps to be performed to met the same.
    Thanks and regards
    Thamizhchelvan G

    Hi,
    The 06 - Inspection type is not stock relevant and also it is not possible to change because it is SAP std.
    1. If you want inspection for Customer with stock, active 05 - Inspection type in Material Master, and move the stock from customer return to QI by using MB1B with Movement type 457 Stock transfer returns to QI. After that system will create the Inspection lot in 05 Inspection type.
    2. If don't want stock for inspection and directly post to Unrestricted using MB1B with movement type 453 Transfer posting to returns from customer to Unrest.
    3. Customer return to Blocked stock using MB1B with mvt type 459 Stock transfer returns to blocked
    Case2.
    Inspection type 05 is a stock relevant inspection type.
    To use 05 you must assign the 05 inspection type to the delivery item in configuration.
    Follow this path.
    Tcode vov6 - there will be schedule line category DN.
    go to details of DN.In Business data, check which movement type is assigned here.
    I think in your case it will be 651.
    Change it to 655 and try now.
    hope it will work.
    Thanks

    Hello Mark,
    Returnable packaging is vendor's material and is not valuated in our valuation area so it will not have any accounting impact in our book.
    Returnable packaging is maintained only on Qty based.

    I have created returnable packaging account with following details
    Location - My plant
    Exchange partne - OEM  (sold to party)
    In relationship --
    Main -- Type plant Location plant number / Exchange partner---- type customer - sold to part number

    I want to do manual posting after doing delivery to customer.
    Please guide me about step by step inputs to be made in transaction RL11
    Iam new to returnable packaging

    Hello,
    normally the posting should be made in background automatically when the packaging material is used in the delivery note.
    To post a manual record, you need to insert at minimum the following in the RL11:
    - Movement type 811
    - Material number
    - Quantity
    - Reference (your delivery number)
    company code
    and the locations (e.g. plant and customer)
    see attached screenshot.
    If everything is correct you get a green check symbol at the beginning.

  • Returnable Packaging - Handling ASN's for their return delivery

    Two of our customers are sending us ASN's when they ship the empty returnable containers back to us.  Unfortunately, the ASN IDoc's Red-Light because there is no MM Order for them.
    The normal process is working - when the truck arrives, we process a Delivery against the LA order to receive them back into Inventory.  It's quick and easy, but the IDoc's are still out there hanging.
    So is there a way to make the ASN's work within the Returnable Packaging scenario?  If I make an MM Order for these items, will it disrupt the RP scenario?  I.e., it has to not only add them back in to our inventory, but it also has to decrease the customer's inventory at the same time.
    Thanks in advance for any ideas, suggestions, or comments.

    Hi David
    you have sent the returnable packaging with regards to Sales Order right? but when IDOCs are coming it should update the sales order and PGR (Post Goods Receipt)
    What i understand is that we need to change the IDOC type for incoming sales order type to update the sales order and create delivery & PGR

  • Returnable Packaging for PO

    Dear Expert,
    I've a scenario whereby the MM consultant try to push the SD consultant for the scenario below:
    - There is FOC returnable packaging (wooden pallet) for PO to ship back the these to the supplier in oversea
    - These wooden packaging will be arranged to ship back to the supplier when reached 150 pcs
    - user want to keep track of the quantity in the system
    - user want to print a pro-forma invoice when the shipment arranged info the custom
    - user wanted to show/print the price on the pro-forma invoice
    In SD side , the solution I can think of is:
    - via sale doc (sales order doc & delivery doc)
    - set up customer master
    - set up pricing
    - develop pro-forma invoice or delivery note
    In MM side,
    - via return PO doc
    - the vendor master already there
    - set up pricing
    - develop pro-forma invoice or a form call delivery note
    Question:
    - should the above done in SD?
    - is the solution come from SD is the best option?
    Looking forwards to hear from you. Many thanks.
    Best regards,
    Aw

    Hi Aw,
    Create material masters for returnable packaging with item category group LEIH. When you create a sales order & outbound delivery, returnable packaging materials will be listed in them and they can be tracked with their material codes. You can include statistical condition type in your sales pricing procedure to show indicative price for packaging materials. This indicative price will flow to your shipment documents as well.
    When the customer wants to return the packaging materials, you can use order type LA, item category LAN is not relevant for billing and post goods receipt.
    If the customer decides to keep the returnable packaging materials, then enter the transaction in your system with order type LN (issue order). LNN is relevant for billing and you can use new pricing procedure to charge customer for packaging materials in LN. Price can be same as indicated in the original sales order or be different as per your agreement with customer.

    Raghu,
    first try to put the sold-to in the ship-to customer master (partner view). Then make a new TO and deliver it.
    If it doesn't work we have to make a little userexit in MV50AFZ1 to add the sold-to party in the delivery before save. If you need it I can find out some template for this.
