Revision level

hi all,
In a PO, i have for an item a 02 like a  revision level. But in t code MSC3N to display a batch retated to this item i see 01 as revision level (knowing that 01 is above 02), the reception of PO has been made with 01.
In ME23N, I have not identified that changes were made!!! the same thing with MSC3N for the batch
I need to know what could happen !!!!
think you all !!!

When a Material is changed to revision level A, the BOM which uses this material also has change to use this new revision of material. So also, Routing.
Now, for BOM and Routing we identify this new structure by using ECM and its valid from date. ( we don't use revision level there obviously because other changes also could happen to these data not related to material and then we can't identify that revision B of routing and revision B of material are related- so, ECM is the best choice)
The ECM number thus helps to track the assciated change for other master data due to a revision in material master. To know which is this ECM number that helps the tracking, along with the revision we input the ECM number also for the material.

  • What are the Uses of Revision Level

    Dear All,
    I have been searching for articles pertaining to "Revision Level" in the Material Master Record and found out that revision level is used purposely in Engineering Change Management and Document Management System. Is this true?
    I want to know if activating revision level can purposely be used also in tracking MRP Tab Changes in material master record. There are some cases that user change MRP Type and reorder levels (minimum/maximum) in the material master record and i want to record this changes and who made this changes. Can this revision level help me on this purpose?
    Can anybody please enlighten me on this revision level usage?
    Thank you.

  • Open PR Material Master Revision Level

    Hi,
    I am working on upgrade from 4.5b to ecc6.0.In this Project Material Revision Level and Change Number is assigned with Z Program.
    The Requirement is the Program has to check the Open PR 's and that particular Material  needs to be updated with Change Number and Revision Level.
    Now the Functional Specification to be prepared for the Technical Team -Based on the Open PR condition  -Now what are the fields to be specified in EBAN table in order to fullfill the open PR.
    As per my understanding Open PR means PO is not created and PO is created means that PR is closed.
    Or any other fields are to taken into consideration for preparing Functional Specification
    Please reply me ..
    Thanks for the reply.

    It is very much possible. You can try this use case. It's pretty simple. But Vice-versa is not possible.

  • Revision level in purchase order

    Hello all,
    when creating a purchase order for a material, the revision level from the material master will be automatically added to the Item-Material Data-Revision Level field.
    But what happens if in the meantime the revision level is updated on the material master, I guess the PO will not be updated on that field?
    The problem is, I need the updated revision level field on the output of the PO, currently I am using the field EKPO-REVLV in the sapscript which refers to the revision level data from the PO.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Anne

    Hi Prakash,
    I have tried to use this field in the form: AEOI-REVLV
    This should be the original table.
    I am using the standard print program for POs: SAPFM06P
    Unfortunatelly, somehow the value does not come up for AEOI-REVLV, but it does come up for EKPO-REVLV.
    Thanks,
    Anne

  • BOM explosion in subcontracting order according to revision level

    Hello experts
    I have different revision levels available for a subcontracted material, e.g. the BOM of this material has different versions depending on the validity date.
    When a BOM explosion is carried out in the subcontracting order (either in the purchase request or in the purchase order) the selected version of the BOM is done accordingly to the delivery date. It does NOT take into account the revision level even when I change it manually.
    Do you have any idea if it is possible to force SAP to consider the revision level instead of the delivery date for the BOM explosion ? (custo, user exit, BAdI, ...)
    Many thanks
    Amaury

    Hi
    BOM explosion in Subcon PO will be carried out automatically when you select the item category L.
    If you want to control the BOM selection based on the Alternative then you can go with Production version option and get the help from PP consultant to create the production version.
    Assign the production version in Subcontracting Inforecord.
    Click the BOM explosion button the switch to alternative BOM during the PO creation.
    Hope it helps
    Thanks/Karthik

  • Revision level not appearing in material tab of purchase order

    hi
    I have matained revision level in material master but it is not appearing in material tab of purchase order and print preview of purchase order
    regards
    Badari

    Hi, If u have created proper change no in CC01 with assigned object material with proper validity period u can give revision level to material.
    In order to reflect the current revision level on PO printout, the coding in PO print program should be designed accordingly to pick the latest revision level. PO output needs to be re-issued so that the new output can pick the latest information like PO revision level from the master.
    Refer below link also for more information,

  • Inspection Plan/Revision level

    Hi PP Gurus,
    I have a Problem in Inspection Lot.The system is not reading the new Inspection Plan.
    The material is assigned to a Revision level with valid from date 10.12.2007 and the earlier Inspection Plan(Group 21) was also created on 10.12.2007.Now this inspection Plan( Group 21) is deleted and New Inspection Plan(Group 100) is created with the Valid from date 10.04.2008.
    I have created an Inspection Lot dated 12.04.2008, Now the system is not reading the new Inspection Plan(Group 100).And the system is giving error "No Insection Plan found" while recording result on the inspection lot.
    We cant change the material ECO revision date as this would contravene our traceability record and  since, the Revision Level is maintained at Global level so cant afford this to change for other Plants.
    Kindly help me to assign the new Inspection Plan to the Inspection Lot.
    Thx in Advance

    Hi,
    I do not know the impact of rev&#305;s&#305;on level on &#304;nspaction lot.
    But, with reference to the Rev&#305;s&#305;on Level only the Conf&#305;rmation w&#305;ll work both in Descrete and aswell as in REM.
    Say &#305;f yor Reves&#305;on Level &#305;s AB, and the date &#305;s 01.03.2008, then during confirmat&#305;on the sytem will explode the BOM with referenec to this Date.
    It may be poss&#305;ble that there may not be any BOM available on that date then there w&#305;ll not be any Components suggested for GI or backflush.
    Probably you can corelate the same th&#305;ng to your &#305;nspect&#305;on lot... ( inspect&#305;on lot not available etc..)
    Hope th&#305;s helps..

  • How to find revision level

    hi my requirement is that,
    i have to get the revision level for each material number in a specific plant,
    is there any function module which can get this data,
    actually this revision level has to be brought from table AEOI table,
    but its key fields are
    AENNR
    AETYP
    OBJKT
    i donot know how to get these fields.
    can some one help.
    thanks & rgds.

    hi charlie,
    thanks for the response,
    actually my problem was that the table AEOI had the value to be extracted but i didnot have input fields to retrive that value, what all i had were material number and plant,
    so i was asking how to find the link between matnr, werks and  fields  aennr, aetyp, objkt.
    anyways, i found from sdn that, we can pass matnr as objkt, and aetyp as 41( for material) ,
    and out of the records retieved latest would bare the correct revlv.
    thanks.

  • BOM Revision Level

    Hi,
    We are uploading the BOMs into server. While manual creation of BOM I am able to update the revision level of the BOM. But we are unable to update it while uploading through LSMW. Please suggest me in this regard.
    Thanks
    Ramakanth

    We have ECM in our project. 
    We have to take all the BOMs from the previous version of SAP and upload to the new all of them to the new version.
    All the BOMs have revision levels w.r.t. to a change number.
    While manually changing the BOM the revision level can be updated by entering the BOM w.r.t. a change number and then in the menu --> extras --> new revision level.
    Now we have to upload the BOMs through LSMW. It is not picking up the revision level while uploading.
    Please give your suggestions.

  • DIR - Change Revision Level

    Hello Friends,
    How can I change the revision level of a DIR without creating a new version?
    Per config, when I create a DIR it is assigned a rev level "-". Then I want to change it to an higher level "A" or "B" or whatever.
    I am using BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2 and BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2 for my process. Eventhough I pass a different rev level, SAP creates the DIR always with the first revision level per the config, which in our case is "-".
    Any input/advise on this issue will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

  • Multiple Revision Levels for a Material

    Today, Tyco Electronics has many manufacturing sites located around the world.  A given material may be manufactured in multiple locations.  When Engineering determines that a given material must change revision level, they determine a date that this new revision level becomes effective.  Unfortunately, not all manufacturing sites can be ready to manufacture to that new revision level.  In fact, based on tooling, one manufacturing site may manufacture to both the old and new revision level for a period of time until all of their tools/dies have been switched over.  In addition, customers may require that only the latest revision be sold to them.  Does anyone else have this requirement/issue today?  If so, how are you handling this within the SAP R/3 system since material revision is at a global level and there is no component revision level field on the bill of material.  Requirements are to sell at a material/revision level, plan to a particular material/revision level, stock at a material/revision level.  Any input you have would be greatly appreciated.

    Which strategy shall I use for picking?
    Can you please guide me what material master data fields are required for these strategies.

  • Synchronizing Material Master revision level across multiple plants

    Hello,
    If an organization uses material master revision level to maintain the details of material's validity across different plants then we see a material master with different revisions in that organization. Now I  would like to understand the impact of this practice in big organizations , is it advisable to have a material master with different revisions in different plants? , if not then which is the best way to synchronize these material masters ( with different revision level ), which are already in use?

    Hello Ulf,
    Thanks for your reply, the actual issue is..
    There are two companies; both are using the same material.
    We are building a central system and synchronizing the materials from all companies.
    While synchronization, we found that revision level are different across companies.
    1.      Should we avoid using revision level in our organization?
    2.      If I can find the validity of a material with change no + material + plant, then what is the purpose
             of the revision level?
    3.     What will be the impact, if we remove the entire revision level across all companies?
    4.     In real world, across different organizations, how revision level is synchronized across companies or at least in the central system.
    Please let me know your valuable inputs.
    Thanks

  • How to map revision level materials to already created inspection plan?

    Dear All,
    I have created single inspection plan for many existing raw materials. Now it has been found that each raw material have different revision level as well as valid from date.
    My inspection plan is created on 02.07.2014 and each raw material has different revision level with valid from date which is also very old (like 11.03.2012 for revision level 09).
    My Requirement is:  how to correct my inspection plan?,  so that it will work for each assigned raw material and there will not be any material revision level wise problem created for the inspection lot so that my inspection lot should be created in REL status in QA32 transaction i.e. inspection lot is assigned automatically as per standard SAP functionality.
    Thanks,
    Narresh

    Hi Amol,
    Thanks for your reply.
    In this business scenario, we are not creating inspection plan for each raw material because there is similarity in inspection for 40-50 raw materials and total number of raw materials are around 500. This will be very difficult and unnecessarily data creation in the system.
    As per my understanding revision level is for material master revision and if material master changes then how it affect so much on inspection plan? also is it means that for every revision in future we will have to create new inspection plan?  hence I believe that if I will make back dated inspection plan for raw materials then it may work. Is my understanding is correct?
    Expecting much better solution from QM experts.
    Thanks,
    Narresh
