Returnable transport packaging for Subcontracting material

Dear All,
I have a doubt regarding a new process to be followed in our company. We need to issue raw material to our subcontractor for processing. We also intend to send packaging material to the subcontractor along with the raw material. Ie We are sending the raw material to the subcontractor along with the packaging material ( say, in boxes).
I would like to know how to address this issue.
What We tried
Standard SAP is allowing the vendor's Packaging material to be "received" from the vendor when we Purchase material from the vendor using movement type 501 'M'. After this, we are able to see this as a "special stock" as RTP ( Returnable Transport Packaging ) in T code MMBE. After this we can issue the packaging material back to the vendor using movement type 502 'M' . There is also a provision to send " our" packaging material to a customer through a Sale order, and receive it back from them.
But is there any standard process for sending "our" packaging to a subcontractor and receiving it back from them ?
We also tried including the packaging material in BOM, and sending it through 541 movement but in this case, when we perform Goods receipt ( 101 movement of the parent material ), the packaging material gets consumed, which should not happen. We want them back in stock.
We also tried using the option "Non - Ordered item" for the packaging material while performing Goods Receipt of the parent material. But this would increase the stock of the packaging material without us even issuing the same to the vendor initially. ie More stock will be there than is actually present.
So how else do we address this issue ?

Velu

Hi Velu,
This scenario can be automated as well in BOM.
While maintaining the BOM for the subcontracting material, include the packaging component as twice, but one with negative quantity. PFB screen shot.
Also turn of the costing relevancy indicator and maintain material provision indicator as "K"(customer material) for both the line item.
So while doing GR for the sub contracting, system post automatically 543 and 545. Hope this is useful, if it is so, your rewards are awaited .

Returnable Transport Packaging Material In ASN ( EDI -856)

Hi,
We are working on inbound delivery creation with returnable transport packaging (RTP) materials. We want to create inbound delivery with RTP and we are passing RTP material in E1EDL24 without reference document (i.e. purchase order or PSA) as we are receiving without any reference.
We are using message type # DESADV & Basic type:DELVRY03. Currently, IDOC is failing and it's looking for reference PO for RTP material but we don't have RTP item on PO.
Any suggestion/guidance on how to handle RTP material with ASN and create inbound delivery with RTP material ? In otherword, I am looking for IDOC segement mandatory fields for RTP material.(Note : I can add item in inbound delivery without any reference but not able to do with ASN)
Thanks.

Returnable transport packaging concept.

Dear Experts,
Please help me to understand Returnable transport packaging concept. what are the pre requisites involved like material master data. & regarding traceability of the material.

Hi all SAP GURUS,
we have 1 special requirement involving of Capital Tools/Equipments( Capital Asset ), which we need to send to different sites thru ordinary truck wherever it requires and once the work is complete at site then 2 possibilities
1) If there is no further demand on tools then again we will take back of tools from site to our plant
or
2) If any demand further for tools then we need to send these tools from that site itself to another site where it requires.(i.e means not taking back the tools from the site to our plant.)
Note : In some cases some of tools not further required then some we will take back to our plant and some are again sent to another site where ever it trequires
Requirements to be fulfilled are:
Till we didnt created any Material masters for this so suggest the best possible method to follow in order to suit the above requirement considering the below constraints.
1) Tracking of Capital Tools at every point of time
2) Considering the Excise and Taxes involved in the above process at different poins of time
3) Documents which are required to prepare as per all Laws.

Need to add Loading Grp and Transportation Grp for a material

Hi Friends,
I want to add the loading grp and transportation grp for a material using transaction MM02 but I am unable to do so. Also would like to add a few more views like plant storage and accounting view for the same material using MM01 but I am unable to see these views in the selection box.
Can anyone please tell me how can I do so.
Regards,
Wasim.

HI
Goto OMS2 and then double click on the material type and now select the required views in User Departments Tab.
To add loading group and transportation group you have to enter the Sales organization and distribution channel in MM02

Creating transport package for CRM Business Package

Hi there,
I have recently installed the CRM Business Packages 60.2 onto our EP6.0 SP2 server. I have also performed quite a lot of configuration on the portal e.g. creating new roles, worksets, iviews etc.
We have now installed a new EP6 server which is running on EP6 SP12. I now need to install the CRM Business Packages 60.2 along with my work again onto the new EP server.
Anyway I have some questions below:
1) I was wondering whether I could create various 'Transport Packages' using the Transport > Export functionality under the System Administration tab. So if I create Transport packages which contains the CRM business packages, export these to the server, then on the new EP6 server import these. Is this possible or is it advisable to install the CRM business package again.
2) In addition to this say for example I could create transport packages for the CRM business package, can I also create transport packages for the new roles, iView etc I created and import these into the new EP server?
3) If say I decided to install the CRM Business Package onto the new EP server, but then I imported my work from the old EP server (i.e. new roles/worksets etc) into the new EP server, would this work. Reason I ask is because some worksets I used in my new role on the old EP server are delta links to the migrated content. If I only import my work how does it know where the delta links are pointing to?
I hope this makes sense.
Cheers
JoJo

Hi JoJo,
Can you please give me the link of latest version of CRM Business package for EP 6.

Return ROH component for Subcontracting

Hi All,
Can anyone please guide me for the process of return Raw Material Components for Subcontracting, after the Goods Receipt of Finished Goods using MIGO.
I have searched other threads which are using transactions J1IF01, J1IFQ and J1IF13. Does anybody knows what the use for these transactions.
Below is the current flow which I am using
Create Subcontract Purchase Requisition - ME51N (item Category L)
Create Subcontract Purchase Order - ME21N (Item Category L)
Create Transfer Posting - ME2O
Create Goods Receipt Document - MIGO
Create Logistic Invoice Verification - MIRO.
Thanks.

Hi
Actually use for subcontract adjustment we have to use t-Code MB04 enter the Delivery note number and PO number through which PO you are going to issue or receiving. Then select the component which component you are going to issue or receive .
If you are going to receive the material from vendor means just enter the quantity for example 10 then post it it will reduce the stock of subcontractor
If you are going to Issue the material to vendor means just enter the quantity for example -10 with negative then post it it will increase the stock of subcontractor .
Hope it will help you

Goods receipt for subcontracting material

Hello friends,
i am doing operation subcontractiing. My first operation is subcontracted. So, I have assigned PP02 control key to first operation (external processing and no auto goods receipt indicator) and maintained external processing data for opration in routing. When i saved the order, for that operation PR gets generated.
Now, I converted PR into PO and assigned raw material that has to be send to vendor. By 541 mvt. type material is issued to vendor. When i do goods receipt in MIGO, system is not showing storage location field. I dont find material in stock anywhere.
But i can see quantity received in external processing tab of first operation in routing overveiw in order.
Then how can i issue the material from storage for second operation if it is not in stock?
How can i get stock of subcontracted material by MIGO?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance!

Kiran,
Since your scenario is Subcontract of operations, you will not find a material referance in your PR/PO, so there is no GR of Material happening, in this Scenario GR means delivery of the operation.
If you really want to track, then you need to create an additional material number and assign that material number with Special Procurement key "30", here in this case you can recieve the product after subcontract as this is product sub contract process. In this case Production order is not relevant.

Returnable transport packaging

Hi,
When i do a GR for a PO, i also receive the RTP Stock with <b>501 M</b> Movement type giving the vendor name of the RTP stock.
When i am sending back the RTP Stock with <b>502 M</b> i can give a different vendor for the same stock.
Want to know is there any check on this stock so that it should sent back to same vendor.

Hi
You can't send the RTP stock of one vendor to another vendor with 502 M.System will throw error message M7 076 , Special stock of this vendor doesn't exist.This error will be called from program itself.
In your case i don't know why this is not giving the error.
Try by configuring the message as error in SPRO-> MM-> IM and PH -> Define attributes of system messages.

Create PO return for subcontracting item

Dear Expert,
I want to create PO Return for subcontracting item category.But when I tried to create it,the system prompted an error message:"Returns not possible for subcontracting items Message no. ME 548". Then I used SPRO to check the system message and there is no such a message in the system.Also I added this message into my system and set the catetory to "W". But when I create the PO Return,the same error occured.
What should I do then?
Any advice?
Best Regard,
Pauline

Thanks for the reply.
I have done one testing for PO return subcon item. I create the Normal PO return, and I create return delivery (mvt type 122) with reference to original material document.
But when i checked in the subcon report ( ME2O/ MBLB/ MMBE) the subcon material dont have any effect when I create the return delivery. the subcon material should be increase as we return back the item to the vendor.
Example here: we return back the boxes to the vendor, means the papers the we provided for them to produce the boxes should be increase ( means that they haven't done anything with the papers so the papers stock should increase)
In the reports ( ME2O, MBLB, MMBE) they not show the changes in stock level of papers when there is return delivery transaction. I'm not sure whether I miss out something in the report ? or maybe there are other reports to show the subcon stock level.

Returnable transport packing

Hi All,
It is agreed with the vendors that the empty oil drums and pallets will be returned to them.
1) Is it right to use LEIH material type for creating material master for empty drums and returnable packing?
2) Which report is available in the system from which I can see how much stock of Returnable transport packing is belonging to which vendor?.
thanks and regards

Hi,
LEIH is the correct matreial type used for RTP (Returnable Transport Packaging)
you can receive such materials via mvt. type 501 M and specify vendor.
please go through link for info on RTP.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/4d/4b9036dfe4b703e10000009b38f889/frameset.htm
you can get reports on basis of mvt type 501 M, MB1B ...
hope this helps.
thanks

Problem while doing GR for subcontracting

This is Naresh. When Iam posting GR for subcontracting material an error is coming as "G/L account 400020 does not exist in chart of accounts INT". And when Iam trying to create G/L account in INT with my company code(using FS00) another error is coming as " description in language EN already created". Can anyone help me.

you have chosen a pretty bad subject.
with this subject you will find people that have knowledge in subcontracting, but your issue is in G/L account maintenance.
Guys that are are experienced in that field will probably not open your thread.
best you create your thread again with a better subject and in a different forum: in the finance forum.

Z movement types for subcontracting

Hi Experts
I am creating zmovement types for my subcontracting process,941,942,943.i am successfulyy send the material with subcontracting vendor with 941 movement.when i am doing GR for with 101movement type for subcontracting material.the 543 movement type is triggering automaticaly...but i need 943 movement type to be triggered.please sugest me..
Thanks in Advance...
Varun

Hi
Some of the movemnts cannot be replaced by Z- Movemnt types.
543 - is such a movemnt whcih gets triggered and determined based on the Value string, qunatity string and item category derivation rules.
So you cannot replace the 543 movemnt type
I would like to know ...the reason for changing the 543 movement type.
Thanks & Regards
