Ristricting product at plant level -?

Hi friends-
plant A currently sels product xxx and Plant B will begin selling the same product xxx starting December 1. How do you restrict plant B from creating an order with the product xxx until december 1?
do I need to do remove plant from material master -?
what is the Transaction?
Or
Do ineed to do some where else -?
Thanks
Prasad

Here are a couple of options...
Use First Product Offer Date to have requested date > the launch date. It won't restrict order entry, but it will restrict when the customer gets the product.
or
For the plant you don't want to start selling out of change the lifecycle to something not currently being used (Developing product maybe?)
Use a listing exclusion (VB01) to restrict that lifecycle product from the sales documents types your customer uses.
When you're ready to sell the product change the lifecycle on the material
Either should work.
Cheers

APO DP: Disaggregation to product&plant level from higher levels.

Hi.
We do demand planning on groups of products and for country/region in general, we have around 48.000 CVC's in our current setup. It works very well.
A new situation has arisen where we need to have the forecast split down to product and plant level.
As is we simply don't have the information at this level of granularity.
I don't see how we can add for instance product to our setup, we have around 20.000 products so the number of CVC's in DP would become massive if we did this.
I was thinking that perhaps something could be done by exporting the relevant key figures to a new DP setup with fewer characteristics (to keep the number of CVC's down) via some infocubes, perhaps some disaggregation could be done via some tables and the BW update rules. This still leaves the issue of how to get the figures properly disaggregated to plant and product though.
Does anyone have experiences on how to get the figures split to lower levels from DP when you're planning on a higher level?

Simon,
One approach as you mentioned can be creating Z Table where in you set up disaggregation proportion from product group level to product level or product location level.
Product Group X 100 Product A@loc1 10
Product B@loc1 90
Download your planning area data into infocube C and then use BW routines to convert the data from group in infocube C to lower level refereing Z Table....into another infocube..
SAP also provides such standard functionality of spliting the aggregate Demand plan to detailed level
SNP plan..through functionality like location slit or product split.
Essential you will be using same concept in yor BW solution or you may also want to consider the
release your DP to SNP planning area its as solution of diaggregation of data to lower level.

Manish

Order split- at plant level

My client have 3 plants at different location. My client requirement is Every month he will receive order from his customers in one predefined format. That order should be copied into sales order ( VA 01) automatically. After receiving sales order, at the time of delivery , that delivery should be processed at plant level as per availability of products delivery . They are producing different products at different plant. Please explain me how it is possible into SAP. Thank in advance

Regarding SOs:
You can try out by scheduling batch jobs periodically.
Regarding Av. Chk :
1)Av chk happens at plant level only.
2) Av chk, according to ATP logic, will consider ONLY one/Single plant.
3) If you want Av chk across multiple plants, you must consider "Rule based Av. chk". For this APO must be connected to your system, where the Av chk takes place & the results are transferred to your system.
Hope , you are clear now.

Trial Balance, P&L and Balance sheet at plant level and profit center Level

HI Expert,
My Client has multiple plants under same company code, hence need the Trial balance, P&L and Balance sheet at plant level
Is it possible in sap to have the Plant level financial report without using the Business area concept.
Secondly each product is identified as profit center and in every transactions each transaction is corectly mapped to profit center, without using the F.5d (Transfer the BS items to Profit center) will it be possible to have the Trial balance, P&L a/c
and Balance sheet at profit center level. If possible what is the T-code which will give such reports.
Thanks & Regards

plant is not an FI concept, you need Business Area's
any PC report should show revenue, COGS. BS items need to be transferred.

Mark confirmation warning as error at plant level

Hi,
Its a business requirement that when carrying out confirmation of production orders, over and underdelivery tolerance as specified in material master should be enforced. This can be done using transaction OPK4, selecting the plant and order type and setting the check for the appropriate message to error instead of warning. However, this has to be done for each and every order type within a plant. Is it possible to apply this at the plant level, i.e. flag the warning as an error for all order types within the plant at one go? Help is appreciated.
Regards
Edited by: Khan Awkhan on Oct 15, 2009 10:00 AM

Khan,
As you rightly saw, this is only possible for a Plant/Order Type combination(OPK4). There is no other option available to just define it a plant level and apply to all order types within the Plant.

Plant level P&L/BS reporting

I am looking for some advice on how to achieve Plant level P&L/BS reporting without having to configure the org structure using one company code per plant.
We would like to group multiple plants under one company code and still be able to generate a P&L/BS reporting at the plant level. The only way I have seen to do this is to set up business areas per plant. My questions are...
1. Can this be achieved through Business Area?
2. Are there other ways to do this?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

hi
i would always suggest using profit center wise balance sheets & P&L.
Also segment wise reporitng is prefered if you are planning to report either geographically or as per product segments.
segment wise reporting , as you are aware, is a mandate for IFRS, will be useful.
if you are on new gl, segment reporting will give lot of in depth analysis for Managerial accounting.
thanks

Availability check at plant level

dear all,
my issue is
i maintain two storage location for raw material say 1 and 2. material is transported from 1 to 2 by 311 Mvt. as 2 is storage at shop floor.
production storage location maintain in MRP-2 view of this material master is 2 .
our client require that while release of process order for its header material system should not give material shortage error .system should check availability of material in production storage location 2.
on not finding sufficiet quatity in 2 it should check for storage location 1, and on finding sufficient qty to fill the remaining requirement shuld not give error of missing part.
to check material availability at plant level i ticked the indicator-"No storage location Inspection" in OPJJ config. setting.
on this config. change also, while releasing the process order system automatically pick storage location 2(production storage location maintain in material master) on checking the mateial page assigned for this order and give missing part on check availability.
some of our raw material are active for batch management.
here also on releasing order of there header material system assign production storage location 2 to that raw material assigned to that order and searh batch only in storage location 2. and on not finding any stock in storage loc. 2 give message insufficient batch assignment and not check the stock in stor. loc. even it available in 1.
kindly explain ...what may be the reason,
even on checking availability at plant level its not considering all the storage location assigned to that materila for this plant.
thanks and regards.

Dear,
In MRP2 view you need to maintain the second storage location i;e production storage laoction from which you are taking batches for production. So it will get copied to the component details of order.
When you will do the batch determination at that time system will select the batches as per availibility.
So in your case you need to do the batch determination agian after the store persone transfer the material to the production storage loaction then system will take all batches available in the production storage location.
Stock determination enables you to implement various strategies to withdraw material for goods issues and stock transfers. You configure these strategies in Customizing. Based on the material requirements entered, the R/3 system determines how and when the material should be withdrawn, and from which storage locations and stocks.
Create sort sequence with ascending order
Then create batch search strategy in MBC1 or COB1 transaction
Give the sort rule there
Give the no. of batch splits as much as you want or just keep 999
Then try doing the batch determination & check if you are getting what you want
If you don't use the Batch entry as 3 then COR6N you can determine batches here then it will get copied to order after confirmation.
Revert if you want further clarifications
Hope clear to you.

Transfer Forecast data based on Customer information for product and plant

Hi,
This is the scenario.
Our characterstics are Product,Plant and Customers
and for 1 plant and product there may be 5 customers.
My characterstics will be
P1 L1 C1
P1 L1 C2
P1 L1 C3
P1 L1 C3
P1 L1 C4
P1 L1 C5
(P1-Product; L1 for Plant and C1,C2...are customers)
Now forecast data will be different for different customers.
I transfer demand from APO to ECC for PRoduct ,Plant and different customers.
Then in ECC how to check for different customers.
If you go to MD63 you can see for plant and product but not for customers.
This is required as we are running MRP for that product for component planning.
Thanks in Advance
Raghavendra Pai

Hi Ragvendra,
In ECC we can transfer at material and plant level only and not information of customer. As you need for MRP run may be you can explore possibility of using some badi and get customer no in requirement plan number or some other feilds.
Other option is planning with descriptive chartceristic in APO only. It is not possible to transfer demand with descriptive charcteristics to ECC.
Here you can forcast demand on customer level. Transfer it as PIR with descriptive charcteristics to PPDS where you can plan for this demand.
For information see link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/c1/147a375f0dbc7fe10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm.
If your requirement is to transfer customer information to ECC from DP in standarad it is not possible as far as I know.

Payment Terms fetch Issue(Plant Level) @ SRM 7.0

Hello Experts,
We are currently implementing SRM 7.0 system(Classical Scenario) across regions.In one such scenario we found out that when we create a PO directly in SRM the Payment Terms is fetched correctly from the Vendor Master at Plant Level(Bypassing the Purch Org Level data, since Standard SAP looks for plant specific data & the same has been implemented in SRM by enahancing the BADI BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI (Implementation ZBBP_DOC_CHANGE_PO ,Method :- BBP_PO_CHANGE using a Custom FM with SQL Query on LFM2)
However when a PO is ordered via the Shopping Cart method,the payment term is fetched at Purch org level,even though we have an Alternative Data(at Plant level) in R/3.
The Header & Item Level Data are the same.for both the PO's. Can someone please give some pointers on fixing this issue.As we know from SAP,fetching Plant related Payment Term into SRM is not a SAP Standard Feature & thus a custom logic was implemented.Payment Term Table(BBP_PAYTERM) is updated with the latest data with all Payment Term translations maintained in R/3.
Awaiting your suggestions.

Standard Report for missing parts at production order operation level?

Hi PP Gurus,
            We have standard report for missing parts at production orders level.
For our client, they need a report for missing parts analysis at production order operation level. Do we have any such standard report in the SAP?
Please help.
Thanks,
Reddy.

Hi Arvind,
      Thanks for for your response.
1. List: Components, Layout: Standard layout          set the Missing part
       It shows the component requirement/withdrawn quantity for each operation of production order. It is not showing the commit quantity.
2. List: Components, Layout: Pick list          set the Missing part
       It shows the component requirement/withdrawn quantity for each production order.
3. List: Components, Layout: Missing Parts List-Material View          set the Missing part
       It shows the component requirement/commit quantity for each production order. It is not showing the commit quantity at opertion level.
4. List: Components, Layout: Missing Parts List-Order View          set the Missing part
       It shows the component requirement/commit quantity for each production order. It is not showing the commit quantity at opertion level.
      We are unable to get the solution from all these 1 to 4 reports from COOIS.
Do we have any option to change the existing layout (ex: 3 ) to get the commit quantity for operation with missing parts indicator?
If avilable, what is the procedure to be followed?
Thanks,
Reddy.

MCHB,MARD - Stock available at plant level and storage location level

Hi ,
How to determine how much stock available at Storage location level and Plant level. (Lot is not maintained).
In MCHB-Stock at lot level is shown.
In MARD-Stock at Storage Location level is shown lncluding
the stock maintaned at the lot level.
If i want to know the stock which is not maintained in Lot, i.e, Stocks directly maintained at Storage location / Plant.
Do I need to subtract the MCHB Value from MARD Value ?
Is there any other way available to find the stocks which is not maintained at lot level.
Regards
Prasath

Hi prashant,
What do u mean by stock maintained at SL level without batch level. Do u mean that some materials are subjected to batch management and some or not?
If that is the case, for all batch managed materials, u can see the stock at batch level and also same is summed up at SL level. But still what ever u are getting from MARD table isstock at SL level only.
If u have activated batch management for any material, it will always be shown at lot level also.
hope this clarfifies query

STOCK QUNTITY on posting date at a plant level

I need the stock quntity , issue quntity , reciept quntity and averege quantity at plant level for a period of week, and month
Is there any function that can do it or any table that has those detailes or any program?

Hi,
Check S031 table. It is a LIS info structure which store all goods movements in your system. But the key would based be on the variant your system configured to. I mean it will be either by Fiscal period/ Week/ Calendar Month for plant material.
Hope this will give you some clue.

Planned order not getting generated at plant level

Hi experts,
When i run MRP for a particular plant in T- code (MD01) Planned order is not getting generated but when MRP is done against a material in T - code (MD02) in the same plant planned order gets generated... Is there any customizing to generate planned order in plant level.....
Regards,
Joseph.
Edited by: joseph5885 on Aug 12, 2010 9:23 AM

Dear Joseph,
No it is not recommended. only in emergance cases this will be done
Usually in MDRE and MDAB will be scheduled before MRP run at background for inconistancies in planning file enries
So the above said t-codes will take care of the same

Activating auto PO Check Box in the purchasing view for plant level.

Hi Techies,
Right now i have an issue related to auto PO check box in the purchasing view for the plant level. There are three plants A,B,C.. For the plants A and B the automatic PO check box is visible and the user is able to provide input values. But when it comes to plant C the auto PO field is not available and hence the user is unable to provide input for auto PO.
Is there any configuration to be done to activate the auto PO check box in the purchasing view in the material master with respect to plant C?
If so could you please guide me with the settings?
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,
Gopalakrishnan.S
Edited by: krishu100 on Jul 13, 2011 2:25 AM

Hi Techies thanks for you all info.
Now today i just tried to created a new HALB Material in the plant C which i had issues yesterday. But when i created today a new material the Auto PO feild is available for entry. THen i tried to go to the material which i created yesterday for editing it. But i was unable to do it.
I checked the transactions which most of you referred(Very Useful). I found that all the plant s had the same screen selction setting and set as Opt Entry. The field screen referrence for MM01, MM02 Transaction s are also set as opt entry. The screen reference for HALB is also set as Opt entry. Still i m not able to find the field auto PO in the purchasing field.
So does it mean that a material once created without auto PO enabled or visible can never be updated after that? But i think its not the case and we should be able to edit it(correct me if im wrong).
Really having my fingers crossed to find a solution for this issue.

Gopalakrishnan.S
