Returns of a substituted Material

Hi SAP Gurus
I have a bit of a problem. We have set up material substitution rules that says if customers order Part A substitute with Part B. Because with have g ATP this comes as a subitem. Now my problem is that when I try and create Returns order it wants to return Part A . This is wrong it must return Part B . I get an information message that reads u201D Item category for item 000040 cannot be determinedu201D .I have checked my item category determination and to me it looks fine and have changed a couple of things on Copy control any idea where I can keep looking?
Thanks and Regards

Have you done your item category determination for Usages PSHP and PSEL since these two are the system defined usages in Substitution.

  • Avoid substitute material.., while creating sales order with BAPI?

    Hi experts.
    I use BAPI_SALESDOCU_CREATEFROMDATA1 function module to create a sales order.
    Material A has a substitute material B with substitute reason 0005.
    So if I use material A when creating sales order with above BAPI function, the order is created with material B.
    I don't want to substitute the material automatically. I want to create the sales order with material A.
    What should I do? Help me please.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi bvrn Reddy,
    I know, your message is almost two years old, but, did you find a solution? I'm facing the same problem. The material A has B as substitute, but in va01 a popup appears (its customizing inside the substitution reason, strategy = A). Of course, we have no popup inside the bapi, but there must be a way to decide which material the bapi should use. At the moment I only get the substitute, never the old mat (even there is something in stock).
    Maybe you've got a helpful hint for me, thanks!

  • Discounts on substitute material

    Hi, I have a process that uses SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CREATE to create the sales documents on background (there are too many of them), and now I need to activate the use of substitute materials, but the substitutes are not taking the conditions entered for the original material.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi Robert,
    I have not worked on the scenario what you have mentioned like create using backgroung etc.
    But I have worked on Material Determination as per what I have seen system will only replace the original material with a substitute material but will pick up the price of the substitute material only and for this the condtion record needs to be maintained for teh substitute material as well.

    Dear,
    In MRP-4 view, you need to select the Discontinuation indicator, effective out date and the follow up material. and in BOM assign the it same than take MRP run and check.
    In the BOM, line item 10 is your (old)discontinued material.
    Enter in line item 20, your follow up material.
    Step1.
    Double click line item 10.
    Make discontinuation indicator tick.
    Discontinuation group - PP(for example)
    Save.
    Step2.
    Double click line item 20.
    Make discontinuation indicator tick.
    Follow up group - PP

  • Weight will be lost in substitute material

    The net weight & cross weight are missing for the substitute material when I create a material determination order.
    I set material-B as a substitute material of material-A, and the "Reason for material substitution" is 0004 (Automatic production selection). Net weight and cross weight both maintain in material-A ans material-B master data. When I create a sales order (OR), the material-A item category is TAX and material-B item category is TAPS, but the weight field is zero in material-B and the also can not be changed.
    Why the weight will be lost in substitute material-B?  Then I changed the "Reason for material substitution" to 0005 (manually production selection).  The material-B subsituted material-A, but the weight of material-B is not missing.

    Some more information might give some clue. For example, what type of files are these? are they media fiels? are they files created and saved by you from applications like word, excel etc? Does this happen in any particular folder like in documents folder or other location? When you try to see them in finder how do you go about it? you start from the sidebar? more info, or a step by step of a specific instance would help how you end up 'losing' them. Cheers.

  • Returns  of a Configurable material / Handling returns using VC

    Hi,
    We are using Variant Configuration and Material type 'KMAT'. We are using Assembly processing (strategy group 82). The MM/PP consultant is using movement type 101 (MIGO) to receive the finished KMAT in to Sales order Stock. This stock is then picked and delivered.
    Now, the customer wants to return the KMAT. After returning it, the client may either repair / rework on it, or make a new one (replacement) or give the customer a credit.
    I'm stuck in the very first stage. i.e., I cannot even create a return order (RE)  for item category TAC.
    Can someone please help me on how should I proceed with this? (step by step procedure will be really helpful)
    **Helpful Answers will be rewarded*****
    Thank You,
    Manoj.

    Hi Manoj,
    It is true that you can  not create a Return order with an Item Category 'TAC'. But again you never create a Sales document for one Item Category, actually the Item category will get determined in sales order with the combination of sales order type and the Item Category Group. And you can define your own rule to determine ur Item Category. If it is an urgent requirement then yes it is possible.
    For your Return order you must have 'REN' as your Item Category and not the 'TAC'.
    For the determination; Order Type(RE) - Item Category Group - Usage - Higher Item Category = Item Category.
    You may require to go as; 'RE' - '0002' - Usage - Higher Item Category = TAC.
    You use that and if your get any issue please come back.

  • Regarding:Return process of Packaging material to Vendor

    Dear SAP Experts,
    When we purchase consumables material it come in packaging material from vendor.
    Then we send packaging material back to vendor.But this process is mannual.
    Now we want this process by system.
    Please help to configure this procedure in my system.
    With Regards
    Mukul Kumar

    hI,
    I hope you are looking for packaging instruction for vendor.
    As vendor will send the materiel in packaging and after delivering the material will take back the packaging material. if this is yes. Then it can be deal with Handling unit the benefit you would have of this  is, harmonized way of packaging  the material. And  even  you can create packaging instruction to vendor with weight and seize of the product .
    Configuration as below for handling unit.
    Go to SPRO> Logistics - General>Handling Unit Management--step1)>Define Packaging Material Types
    Step 2) Define Material Group for Packaging Materials-
    Step 3) Define Allowed Packaging Materials- By assigning packaging material types to the material groups for packaging materials, you define which packaging materials are allowed for packing.
    Step 4) Use Handling Unit Supplements
    SPRO> Logistics - General>Handling Unit Management>External Identification>Set Unique Number Assignment for HU Identification--It is only possible to indicate a storage location as HU-managed if you have set this indicator. The use of non-assigned handling units without unique number assignment is not supported
    Step 2) Number Range Maintenance for HU Identification--You can maintain number ranges for number assignment for handling unit identification via number range intervals which is consists of 9 digits without overlapping
    step 3) SSCC Generation Acc to EAN128
    3 a) Maintain Number Range Object for SSCC-- Number range object "LE_SSCC" is provided with interval "01" and a 9-digit number length. Create the number range objects and intervals necessary for your organization and country dependent.
    3 b) Maintain SSCC Generation for Each Plant / Storage Location-
    4) SPRO> Logistics - General>Handling Unit Management>Automatic Packing> Packing Instructions Master Data-->Define Number Ranges for
    Packing Instructions.
    All your setting is in place
    Then go to POP1 to create packaging instruction.
    And maintain determination record using POF1 with key combination as vendor /Plant/ material, for condition type RCPT For incoming material & SHIP-Ship to party material.
    Or even you can send back the returnable packaging material by using 501M > MIGO>Other Movt type--> 501M.
    Hope this clear.

    Hi,
    Can be done by Two ways:-
    1. Do the 122 (Return Delivery) and Capture the excise amount at MIGO. and  Create the excise by J1IS and Post the excise invoice by J1IV and Update the registers by J2I5
    2.  The most suitable solution is
    Make a return PO with Return checked and go to
    J1IS u2013 Excise Invoice Other Movements
    Here click on u201Ccreateu201D button to create an outgoing excise invoice and reverse the CENVAT Amount.
    Here put all details as below and Press u201CEnteru201D.
    Ref.doc.type - MATD, Doc Number - Material document No of 161 mvmt, Doc Year, Series Group, Excise Group and Vendor
    system will pick the accessible value.
    Here check BED, ECS and SECess values to be reversed and click on u201CSaveu201D button to post the excise invoice.
    J1IV - Post and Print Outgoing Excise Invoice.

  • Difficult question? - 2 substitute material number for 1 real material??

    Hi Experts
    In our company,for some specail requirement,we want to have two material numbers for one real
    material,that means this two materials are substitute for each other. In every transaction, we can
    use this both two material numbers.
    For example,material number "A123 " and "B456" , these two material numbers are for one real
    material, In evevry transaction we can use "A123 " or "B456".For exmaple ,we can create and release
    a production order to produce"A123",and when doing goods receive for this produciton order with
    MB31,we could use"B456" for the same production order. And also when we view the stock for "A123" in SAP,we could get the the sum stock of "A123" and "B456".
    Is it possible in SAP?How to achieve it?
    Thanks for any reply!
    Edited by: Fei Liu on Apr 29, 2009 12:22 PM

    Hi,
    In standard SAP it is not possible, You have only two options,
    1. Maintain Single material and use split valuation.
    2. Maintain two different materials and do material to material transfe as and when required.

  • Return Delivery when the material document has been archived

    Hi There,
    We have a situation in which we need to return some consignment material to a vendor because we don't need it anymore. We have 74 units in unrestricted stock. The thing is that the PO's material documents have been archived. This causes we can't do the return delivery using MIGO transaction.  
    Could someone tell me what options do I have?
    Thanks for your help.
    Luis

    Hi,
    You can create a return purchase order to do that, just flag the checkbox "Return" in the PO item line.

  • Return Delivery from a Material Document

    Hi Experts,
    I have a scenario in my current project, where we perform a 261 movement (Consumption for a order) before the Order was completed.
    Once the order is completed and we know the real quantity consumed, we perform a Return Delivery from the previous Material Document, for the quantity not used. In this way we return to stock the quantity which was not used.
    The problem is that this action must be done automatically by a development, and we are looking for a BAPI that can perform this action. I have found the function BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE, but cannot be used (or at least I do not know how to use it) to create the movement I need.
    Can this BAPI be used? Is there any other BAPI that can help me? Any other idea?
    Any help will be highly aprecciated!
    Thank you very much in advance,
    Best Regards,
    LUCAS

    Hi Polly/Dirk
    Thank yoy very much for your answer...they were very helpful.
    I was triying the BAPI, but I still have a little issue. I am calling te function with the parameters specified, but whenerver I insert the Reservation and the Reservation item, the function posts a 261 movement (despite I inserted 262 in the parameters). If I do not insert the Reservation data, it post the movement correctly, but it does not make any reference to th reservation. Is it correct to post it without reservation number? Am I missing something?
    Thank you very much in advance,
    LUCAS
