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

Returnable Transport Packing - Empties handling

Hello All,
I am having an issue with choosing the right direction on how to handle RTP scenario. My client is working with Drums that are used over a period of time.
Currently, during our shipping process we pack the items into handling units and ship them out. when we receive the Drums back they just receive without refrence to a PO. But they like to track that Drum inventory now at a Drum level. So, can we do this using HU management or should we use Serial management. Because we like to scrap them after a 5 year period.
I am just trying to find out which would be the best option to go with this. Is there a Standard SAP process for this??
Thank You.

Hello ainindra,
That link you provided was really helpful. But I want more details so let me explain my scenario in more detail.
1) Create sales Order
2) Create delivery against it
3) Create TO
4) Confirm TO
5) packing in the delivery (The Warehouse is WM managed and handling unit managed, so packing happens when you pick.)
6) Delivery should have 2 lines one with the main item and second with the packing material (The pallets are serial managed)
7) PGI
8) create return delivery
9) receive the packaging goods in
Can you please mention what it takes to create this scenario. Things like what sales order type, Delivery type, Config in handling units thing like this.
Thank You,

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 ?
Regards,
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.

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.

Movement type for customer supplied packing material returns

Hi,
The scenario is like this,customer will give the packing material to the company.Company does the service required & return that packing material to customer.Presently we are using 624V movement type can you suggest some other movement type for this.
Regards,
Rajesh

hi,
this is to inform you that,
if customer is supplying the packaging material to us receive it through 501 - M and Issue 502 - M, manually if you want to track the packing material wise take the material into NON VALUATED ITEM.
you can create a Z report for the same and the fields in that is,
material number, packing material associated with that, quantity received thru 501 - M and consumed against 502 - M and GI quantity.

Reversing subcontracted finished goods that came from customer returns.

Dear Gurus,
I have a scenario where the finished goods that came from subcontracting needs to be reversed back to its components without reversing the subcontracting charges. How to process this scenario in SAP.
The subcontracting job is packing. The individual materials will be sent to vendor and vendor will return the packed finished product. The packed material will then be sold. The materials that came back as customer returns due to quality reasons is unpacked and reverted back to its components.
How to process this reverting of the packed finished goods back to its components in SAP.
I understand one thing that reversal of subcontracting GR without reversing the subcontracting charges is not possible and it is not a proper procedure. I am unable to trace a way to process this using other indivdual movement types too.
Kindly suggest and Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Pradeep Kumar . S
Edited by: pradeep.spk on Oct 24, 2011 7:14 AM

Thanks for your reply Nishant but the problem is subcontracting charges should not be cancelled. The packing job done by vendor was paid and it is irrevokable.
The Finished goods returned from customer should be reduced from inventory and its components should be added back so that we can scrap the defective components and do our further processing using the good components.
The requirement is how to process the reduction of the finished goods from inventory and add the components back to inventory in SAP.
Thanks in advance.

Returns PO

HI Gurus,
What is the requirement of returns PO. Is their any other way to return goods to vendor?
Regards,
prasads svs

Hi Prasad
Returns to vendor and store returns (returns from plant to plant, or for SAP Retail site to site) can be necessary for the following reasons.
1) Goods remain at the end of a promotion
2) Goods remain at the end of a season
3) The vendor asks for the merchandise to be returned
4) Goods have to be returned/destroyed because they are spoiled, broken or of inferior quality
5) Returning discontinued articles to the vendor.
6) The merchandise involves empties or returnable transport packaging.
You can mark articles to be returned when you are entering an item in a purchase order by selecting the R indicator (returns item) on the item overview screen of the purchase order.
Returns order items can be entered in a purchase order alongside other order items. This enables you to order goods from and return goods to a vendor in the same purchase order.
Returns to vendor can be managed completely on the procurement side: They leave the site at the receiving dock (i.e. when the vendor makes a delivery) and the relevant items are handled as negative values in Invoice Verification.
You can create return delivery note with movement type 122 from un restricted or 124 from GR Blocked stock.
Hope this information helps you out
In case of any clarification pls ping me

Transport from ECC6 to 4.6C

Hi there,
I need to transport a whole lot of custom development objects including ABAP, screens, functions, tables etc. They are all contained in a single workbench request.
The original system is a unicode ECC6 (700) system running off Win 2008 R2, MaxDB 7.6. The target system is non-unicode R/3 4.6C
I am no Basis Administrator - my problem is that this is an unusual request that basis admins don't really have experience with, so I am being left to find a solution myself...
When I try to import the transport files into the 4.6 system I get an error related to unicode to non-unicode transporting.
I have checked the following notes:
Note 330267 - https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/330267
Solution: First import into a byte-oriented system (that is, a system where one byte is used for each character) with Release >= 6.10. Then export the data from this system. The resulting export can then be imported into earlier releases.
This is not an option as I don't have a non-unicode system available with version 610 or later.
Note 1090842 - https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1090842
A general prerequisite for this type of transport is that the R3trans belonging to the system is used during both the import and export processes.
I don't really know what this means - can anyone shed some light on what I need to do to try this?
Note 638357 - https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/638357
Up to now, such transports have not been possible, because in Basis releases prior to 6.10, R3trans cannot understand the internal format of the transport files that result from the export from Unicode systems.
Transport profile parameter "exporttoascii" is available as of the tp and R3trans versions listed below. If you set "exporttoascii=true" in the export system, a transport file is created during the export from Unicode systems that can also be imported into old Basis releases.
I have tried to use the following command with no luck - "D:\usr\sap\<SID>\DVEBMGS00\exe\tp export <SID>K900079 "-D exporttoascii=true"". I run this command while logged in as <SID>ADM, but get the following error - "Connection failed (RTE:could not create comm. shared memory \[51\])". When using STMS in SAP to release a transport normally it works fine, so not sure why the TP command will not work??
Note 1113226 - EXPORT/IMPORT: UC converter for R3TRANS - https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1113226
A converter was developed that
u2022 converts the internal format of the exported data into the older format and
u2022 converts Unicode characters that are contained in the exported data into code page 1100 and adjusts the length accordingly.
The transport tool R3TRANS uses this converter.
Patch text: EXP/IMP: UC converter for R3TRANS
Check SAP Service Marketplace to see whether the patch is already available for your platform and apply it in accordance with Note 19466.
I checked this but again, I don't fully understand this note - it does not seem very clear what should be done. I have searched the downloads center and have not found any converter utility...
I would really appreciate any help on this!
Thanks very much
David

Hi David,
In my opinion, Note 1090842 should solve your requirement.
I hope the following section from the note is already taken into consideration for your import procedure:
Furthermore, general logical transport problems occur that are not specific to a certain release, especially concerning the usage of functions that are not available in the previous release. When you, for example, use functions that exist only as of Release 7.1, especially ABAP statements, the return transport to lower releases is not recommended. At least, you must manually repair these objects after the import. In cross-release development projects with regular transport requirements, we recommend that you carry out your developments in the earliest target release and then transport these developments to subsequent releases because this is usually linked to fewer complications.
A general prerequisite for this type of transport is that the R3trans belonging to the system is used during both the import and export processes.
The R3trans is an executable file which is a part of the SAP system's kernel (in location /usr/sap/<sid>/SYS/exe/run). This tool is used by the tp program while perfoming any export/import activities. The R3trans is usually different for different releases - the same way that you need different kernel files for different releases. However as per the above prerequisite, it is suggested to have the same R3trans executable file being used during the export from source system and import to target system. Means you would have to copy the ECC 6.0 system's R3trans file to the 46C system kernel directory before performing the import.
Regarding the R3trans version required on your systems, as per Note 638357, you need to use the tp and R3trans files with release date later than June 02, 2008. So taking the latest tp and R3trans files available on the SMP should be enough.
Also suggest you to check thread:
Transport objects from 4.6C to ECC 6.0?

Srikishan

Packing Cost at Order Level

Hi all!!
I have a problem regarding transport & packing at order level:
how can i add (in pricing procedure) at cost level (at VPRS level, where i have the cost of material ordered by customer) the cost of packing and the cost of the transport.
Are there condition type that i can use?
For istance, in order (after i have done the packing proposals, i see that i will use 7 boxes (that costs 3 EUR/PC): there is a condition type (as VPRS ) that takes the cost of packing material and puts it in pricing procedure???
Many thanks to all.

Dear Lakshmipathi,
thanks for your answer. I would like to have some info:
you say that i have to create a condition type & access sequence.
So:
1a) what kind of condition type? (like PR00 for packaging material, at price level, before tax in pricing procedure?)..
1b) if i try to give to Packaging Material a conditior record (with condition type PR00) why i don't see it in pricing procedure in the order? I have to insert packaging material as Item level? (because i have only done packing proposals)
2) i would prefer to put this condition type among costs (after VPRS)
3) if i want to insert shipment cost (always among costs after VPRS) what kind of condition type can I use?

Reversing return delivery

Objective: To reverse the PGR in return delivery
Process:
1)Created a return delivery,packed, fully picked.
2)PGR done.HU came into stock.
3)Transferrd this HU to another sloc using HUMO transaction 911 mvt type.
To achieve the objective tried following:
1) Brought back the stock by reversing step 3 of above again using HUMO.
so stock came into the initial sloc
2) Now went t reverse the PGR by giving return delivery in VL09. Below error message recieved:
Handling unit 934558886 was last posted with material document
Message no. HUFUNCTIONS274
Diagnosis
The last material posting for handling unit 934558886 occurred using material document . Therefore, material document can no longer be cancelled.
Procedure
Post the handling unit in question in a normal material posting with the opposite movement type (reverse posting).
I tried using reverse movement type and HUCANC but no result.
I even tried MB1b with 311 so that IBD gets created but system dispayed the message:
Delivery is incomplete--cannot be saved.

Hi Vineet,
Based on your description, it seems you have done several goods movements after the goods receipt with VL32n. Afterwards, you are now trying to reverse this first goods receipt step. According to my knowledge, this process is not allowed in the system.
Let me explain the background why it is not allowed: IT is only possible to reverse the last entry in the HU history within reversal. that means you can only reverse the inbound delivery with VL09 if no further movements or repacking activities were performed after GR.
WORKAROUND:
What you have to do is to perform a return delivery to vendor. Before
that you have to post the material back to place where they were after
GR and then have two alternatives:
1. Create a new PO with RETPO flag and create a return delivery.
(movement type 161)
2. Use MBRL to create a return delivery with reference to GR.
(movement type 122)
In both cases you will get a return delivery with delivery type RL or
RLL. If this is not the case i request you to check the following customizing:
- Step 20 of oss note 491785
- oss note 359247
