Sale order stock de-assigning.

Dear Gurus,
Please address this scenario:
Suppose I have a strategy which consumes from stock every time a sale order is raised. Imagine the situation that I have a stock of 50kg for a material and I receive a sale order for 30 kg, so automatically 30 kg stock is confirmed against this sale order. Couple of days later I receive another sale order for 30kg, now because there is a shortage of 10 kg. But I want this sale order to get the stock available and production to be triggered against the first sale order, which means I have to delink the stock assigned to 1st sale order and give it to second sale order. How do I handle this.
Regards
Sri.

Hi!,
Please elaborate on :
1. Which planning strategy is being used.
2. Why you want to produce the balance quantity against the first sales order when that is completely delivered.
If you are using MTS strategy e. g. 40 then you can handle this situation by proper setting in scope of availability check (OPJJ) (for the combination of Checking group and checking rule "A'). There if you uncheck " include sales requirement" and " include deliveries" then system will not reserve the warehouse stock for a previous sales order or delivery and you can easily use it as per your own priority.
But if you are using MTO strategy then for the sales order of 30 system will never create an planned order of 50. Tthis is possible that against the sales order of 50 if you have only dispatched 30 and on the arrival of next order of 20 you want to utilize that stock. Then in that case you will have to make a stock transfer as suggested by the other guru. If you do so and you again run the sales order MRP (MD50) for first order then system will again trigger an planned order of 20 quantity with an separate stock segment in MD04 for first order.

Third party process with Valuated sales order stock

Hi All,
We have third party sales order process with valuated sales order stock. The problem is that in the theird party PR which is triggered directly from the sales order it determines a stock account which is assigned to the BSX key in OBYC.
But since this is third party processing as per my understanding a consumption account assigned to key GBB-VAX (since account assignmnt category is X) should get determined, so that when the GR is done against the PO a consumption posting is done in the background.
I am not able to understand if the system is determining the stock account due to the fact that it is valuated sales order stock and if so, what should happen after GR. Should we have a stock created for the material which is physically directly delivered to the customer?
Regards,
V S

Hi,
Check GBB-VKA which is defined in OME9 for your ''E'' Account Assignment Category that SAP will debit upon GR posting
Also check "X" GBB-VAX and the G/L account assignment in OBYC
The posting on GR should be debit KBS -Credit GR-IR
Thanks

Changing Sales Order from using Sales Order Stock to Std Unrestricted

Hi
We have set up some materials to default to an Item Category/Schedule lines that creates the Sales Order with relevance to Sales Order Stock.
However in some instances we need to change the Sales Order to a Std Item Category that just uses Unrestricted stock.
When we test this currently, we are unable to update the original Line Item as it is GREY.
So we have been adding a "reason for rejection" then copying information into a 2nd line with a Std Item Category.
But it is still sitting in MD04 under the Sales Order Stock configuarion and not reducing Unrestricted Stock . .. .
What are we doing wrong?
I had assumed that changing the Item Category would remove the Sales Order Stock requirement and use normal Unrestricted.
Thanks
Hayley

Hi,
In VOV4, has the standard item category been assigned under Manual Item Category column? If the value is assigned, then you can change the item category in sales order.

Sales order stock from Projects

Dear Gurus,
The Scenerio is,
I am procuring materials through project. Generally it will go into project stock, If it is mentioned as a stock item. But my requirement is, the procured material has to go into salesorder stock.( Bcoz delivery of material happening in SD thrpugh sales order.) Is that possible? If yes, what are all the settings, I have to do in PS module and other modules,if required. But the cost(Planned/Actual) has to be captured against Project.
Awaiting for your reply.
Regards
Suresh

Hi,
When you are creating a PR from project , the "OPTT" customizing
1.Should have the "D" setting for "Sales Doc- Project" setting.
and in the sales order that is relevant to the project , you must have the WBS element assignment
Both the project and the Sales order should have the material ! project having it as being procured ( to take care of PR & PO generation )
and the SO having the material as being delivered ( to do the delivery and billing of the material supplied )
The Sales order should have the material production or procurement getting triggered through the item category ( and the material master's MRP Type ) and the requirement type !!
All these settings once maintained, you can have GR of material to Sales order stock !

Issue with sales order stock that is referencing a non-existing sales order

We have an issue with sale order stock.
Due to user error we have ended up with a negative quant of sales order stock in a bin. Further the error was due to mis-keying of sales order number. Hence this negative quant is referencing a sales order that does not exist.
We need to get rid of this quant.
I thought of cycling this quant off as a solution. And hence replicated the scenario in the test system. I was able to create a TO to cycle it off but cannot clear the differences from 999 . The error I get while trying to do this is "SD document not in database or has been archived" . This error is true since the sales order actually does not exist. So cycling it off did not work.
Can anyone suggest how we can get rid of this negative quant of sales order stock ?
Thanks

Hi,
You said that your user mistyped the SO number and it resulted in a -quant. In which transaction was it possible? If I give a non existing no. SAP doesn't allow me to book.
If I were you I would check both in WM & IM what the user had done...step-by-step...
Negative quant comes to existance in interim storage type if we book e.g. a GI. It should have started in IM...how was your user be able to do that??? If it was possible cannot you reverse the IM booking?
(...if all else fails...cannot you create a SO document with external number assignment with the same number?...)

Reason for rejection for sale order stock existing line item

Hi,
I am giving reason for rejection for a line item where there is already sale order stock. Then I am getting a warning message like " there is sale order stock assigned". I want this message to be as error message. Any customisation (SPRO) is there for this?
Kindly update.
Ratna

Dear Rama Rao
I think, there is no problem you can ignore the warning message and go ahead give reason of rejection and close the order
There wont be any problem absolutely
The reason of warning message is, (it is sales order created with item category with special stock indicator as E ) that means the system tells you that it is extra special stock which you have created and now you are trying to reject hence it alerts you by giving a warning message
The item category of the items which you are trying to reject is marked or should have been marked with special stock indicator (you can check that in VOV7)
By double clicking warning message if it is of V4 message class in t code OVAH you can make that as no message
But i doubt that this is available in OVAH

Valuated Sales order stock - Goods Receipt

Greetings,
I am trying to better understand the concept of 'Valuated Sales order stock" and I read in the SAP documentation that:
"When you are using a valuated sales order stock, externally procured individual requirements materials are assigned to the sales order stock at the net order price at the time of the goods receipt"
But I find that in our SAP system, this is not the case. Externally procured materials are valued at whatever price they are costed in the sales order they are used.
I can have a PO whose net price is 5000 Euros for Material X but if that same Material X is costed at 8000 Euros in the Sales order to which is it used, the GR for Material X will be at 8000 Euros.
(the PO for Material X is assigned against the sales order).
Perhaps I am misunderstanding what is meant by "externally procured individual requirements materials"?
In the example above, material X is not the Finished Goods sold to customer through the Sales order. It is a component that is involved in the production of the FG.
It seems to me more logical that Material X value be based on the cost estimate computed in the sales order rather than on the PO Net price...
Thanks in advance for your valuable feedbacks!
Best regards,
Sylvain

Hello Nikolas,
Thanks for your answer.
Yes, we value our inventory at Std.
(Is this why the GR is valued at Sales order cost estimate and not Net Price?. SAP does not mention this in its documentation)
I understand your point but my argument is based on the fact that if a purchased material (Material X in my example) is received into stock at the Net Price value, then, there will be a mismatch between
- the Cost Estimate of Material X in the Sales order (Material X will be valued at its Std there, based on our Costing variant)
and
- the value at which this Material X will be consumed in the Production process (since it will be at Net Price).
This would cause a Production variance to be recognized since the actual costs to produce the Finished good would be different from the Cost estimate of the Finished Good in the Sales order (and the cost estimate in the sales order determine the COGS of the Finished Goods in accounting).
The difference of 20 you mention is treated as a Purchase Price variance in our case. That PPV is assigned against the Sales order.
Best regards,
Sylvain

Moving average price not updatet when sales order stock

Sales order stock is ioncluded in calculating moving average (at goods receipt there is no new valuation type created)
It is okay with replenishment orders (regular stock)
I first thought it had to do with Spec. Stk Valuation indictator (but this one is set to 'M', which seems right for me.
Does anyone have a clue what I can do so my moving average value is also calculated based on sales order stock and not only regular stock?
Kind Regards
Kevin

Spl Stock Valution must be - A (not M) to valuate along with normal stock .
Ensure following configuration is there
1. create Requirement class in OVZG . Maintain required account assignment category under account assginment subscreen
2. Create requirement type in OVZH . assign this req.class to req.type
3.Assign requirement type to sales item categories for which you need this VSO functionality
4.Goto SM30 and give table V_T459K_K ,mainatain ,for your requirement class under valuation field maintain M or A(put F1 for moreinfo)
5.Take SD consultant help to setup schedule line category(SC) for this item category ,it should have account assignemtnt category and PR order type - VOV6 and assign this SC to item category in VOV5
6. Now create SO which will populate the above created item category (if not check with SD consul to populate the above item category)
7.convert the PR generated through above SO into PO
8.In PO under account assignment tab you could see BSX account and it must be greyout .
9.Do GR ,stock will be updated in MBBS report.
it resolves your requirements
check point in each transaction:
after SO ,check VBAP- KZBWS = M or A (which you have maintained in requirement class)
PR from SO, EBAN-KZBWS =M or A and PO also will have EKPO-KZBWS = M or A

Sales Order Stock, using Sales Orders

Morning!
We are receiving Sales Order Stock (stock segment E), thus creating special stock with a number that consists of the Sales Order Number + the Item number of the order. This is to support our Repairs process in CRM. (So we are NOT using NB Purchase orders)
Example:
Order: 3100501
Item: 0010
S.Order stock 10 pieces E-stock 31005010010
When trying to Post Goods Issue, we do this based on the same Order, but having added one item to the order, item 0020.
The system -understandably- does no let us find the stock, since it is looking for E-stock 31005010020, which we don't have....
Anyone?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi;
When a Sales order is created a corresponding PO is created for building the stocks when we do a GR for this PO stocks are created for the Sales order.This is the sales order stock.
Now when a change is made to the SO we need to either create a corresponding PO for this new item of make a similar change to the existing PO.
To solve the issue...
Go to the PO add the line item and choose the new item and press the "Account Assignment" button and give the SO# and the line item #.
This should solve the issue.

Sales order stock on delivery document and transfer order

Hi all,
At my current client I have a requirement where we need to put stock against sales order (sales order stock E). So, being a MTO process we create production order and perform goods reciept to unrestricted stock. To avoid getting picked up by a different sales order, we move the stock to sales order stock using 412 E (tcode: MB1B). Here are the issues I am facing currently:
1. Is there a direct way of receiving production order directly to sales order stock?
2. I couldn't find a way to do the first, so I am currently receiving production order against unrestricted inventory and then move it using MB1B. So, the stock can be seen to assigned to sales order.
2a. When I create delivery it is not consuming same stock, it is consuming inventory out of unrestricted stock (if any, in case no inventory is available it throws error of 0 available quantity). Once I have assigned sales order stock why is it still looking into unrestricted? Is it due to the requirement type which is assigned. Do I need to change the item category so availability will check sales order stock (similar to item category TAB)?
2b. This probably will be resolved if I get the delivery fixed but we have SAP WM and during TO creation I don't see the special stock reference filled in? I tested this process with item category ZTAB (copy of TAB) which creates purchase requisition and it seems to be working but I don't need the purchase req for my case.
3. This is more of an accounting issue: when I attempt to move stock from unrestricted to sales order stock using 412 E, I was getting "Account XXXXX is not assigned to cost center". So, I went in an assigned a cost center to this cost element. IS THIS REQUIRED & WHAT IS THE RELEVANCE as it takes stock out of inventory.
I understand it crosses other functional areas but even if you can clarify 1 part of it, will be very helpful.
Thanks.

Dear Friend
You are telling that it is MTO scenario and you are posting stocks into unrestricted stocks
This is entirely wrong
This is happening because of a simple thing missing in your sales order item category configuration in VOV7 that is special stock indicator E is missing which should be there
This is the cause of whole problem
MTO item categories will have special stock indicator E in standards
In MTO based on the sales order production order is triggered and stocks are receipted against sales order and not into unrestricted use by defaut in standard
You will receive MTO stocks as sales order stocks in your plant only in standard
But it is not happening for you because of stock indicator E in VOV7 of your sales order item category is missing
Posting MTO stock in to unrestricted use is meaningless and the same is happening because of a slight miss out in setting in VOV7
This is the solution for issue no 1
For issue no 2
You have created the sales order( MTO order) without special stock indicator E and now you are doing a transfer posting in MB1B with 412 E referencing the order no sales order stocks that is Fine
You are getting an error that only zero qty is available either at delivery or at pgi eventhough in MMBE you will find sales order stocks in your order name
This is happening because
Reservation in MB1B is done with special stock indicator E for sales order
But the same sales order is not created with special stock indicator E in VA01 during creation
There is a mismatch
Hence the system is not able to sense while the order comes for delivery there are already stocks are reserved
By inputting special stock indicator E for sales order item category the whole issues will get solved
By doing that there is no need to do MB1B itself
The first step itself will get corrected as the stocks will be posted to sales order stocks no need for MB1B
No need to touch TAB make it ZTAB as it is meant for a different purpose it is for individual purchase order not to be used for MTO
*By marking the special stock indicator as E in your sales order item category your entire issue will be resolved*
Issue no 3
MTO is based on costing for which you have take the help of FI person
Note Very important
If U make the settings now in item category it will not work for the existing or already created order
With existing orders it will have the same error as the order is created without special stock indicator E
Only for new orders it will work and from Now on it will work
Test it with new order cycle starting from VA01
Please let me know this issue has got solved or not?
I am 200 % sure it will get solved

Stock trsp of normal stock to sales order stock

Dear colleagues,
I have been working with stock transport of sales order stock before and it worked - I have no issues with it. But this time my client needs to transport normal stock in one plant to sales order stock in another plant. FYI, this is a cross-company STO, i.e. item category "standard" in the PO.
I thought it was the requirements class in the "Transfer of requirements" function that controled which stock my STO was going to consume, but I am unsure now. I checked the requirement class that SAP assigned to my STO delivery of sales order stock (the one that works - SO stock to SO stock) and it is 041, i.e. the very standard reqmt class that has nothing to do with sales order stock! So how does SAP determines it is the sales order stock that I want to transport?
The IMG notes for the setting "Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transaction" imply that there can be special rules implied for special stocks:
Example
There are business transactions, such as consignment stock processing, in which the material with its planning characteristics is not important, rather the transaction itself. An issue from the customer's consignment stock should not trigger an availability check against planning at the plant as layed down by the planning strategy but rather against special stock.
How does it work for special stock then?
TIA for any hints!
Raf
Edited by: Rafael Zaragatzky on Feb 23, 2011 8:31 AM

Thank you, Joshua.
Yes, it works with M - SO stock is moved from plant to plant. But we need to move normal stock in the source plant to SO stock in the destination plant. Therefore I wonder what is it that tells SAP to do GI from sales order stock. Is it just that the AA category defines the sp. stock indicator both for the issuing plant and the receiving plant? In such case, we are stuck.
But the comment in the IMG documentation that I cited first implies that there might be other thing that controls the special stock on the delivering plant side.

PO against valuated sales order stock posting to consumption account

Hi All,
I am creating a PO with account assignment against valuated sales order stock. However the posting happens to consumption account (GBB) instead of the stock account (BSX). The following settings exist
1. The material type is both quantity and value update
2. The account assignment category used in PO is E which has special stock = E, account modifier = VKA and consumption posting = E
3. The requirement class (in SD) has account assignment = E and valuation = M (even tried with A)
4. The valuation class for valuated SO stock has been maintained in the accounting view
However the system picks up the account corresponding to GBB-VKA and not BSX. Can anyone point out any setting that may be mising here.
Regards,
Ketan

Hi,
Maintain the consumption posting as blank against the account assignment used in PO in OME9 and test the scenario again.

Goods Receipt for sales order stock

Hi everybody,
I want to receive materials for sales order stock. what I did:
1- Created a Purchase order,
2- Account Assignment = C
3- went to MIGO
4- selected PO number
5- set movement type 101 / E
the SAP give error message that you have not planned 101 / E !!!!
I searched alot but couldn\t find the solution.

Hi Dear,
When you use C account assignment category, System will consume those materials/services for the respective sales order at the time goods receipt/service confirmation. There is no inventory possible when we use, account assignment C as a standard, If you want to make inventorize, we have to choose account assignment category M against sales order.
When we are procuring material against project, Account assignment Q-will be inventoried and P-will be consumed for respective cost object
Like the same M-will be inventoried and C--will be consumed for respective cost object

Problem about sales order stock stock transfer and batch determination

Hi, experts, I get a problem about sales order stock stock transfer and batch determination.The following is the current situation of my system:
In OMCG I assigned search procedure ME0001 to both 311 and 311 E and ticked check batch. After that, I found that if iI need to tranfer unrestricted-use material from storage location 1000 to 2000 with movement type 311, I just need to input * at the field batch, then the system will display all of the available batches. But for the transferring of sales order stock with movement type 311 E, after I input * at the batch field, no batch is displayed and there is also no message from the system.
Can anybody help me? Is there anything else I need to do? Thanks very much.

I think my question is not clear, actually I tried 562 E , 411 E and 413 already. all the transaction looking for the sales order but unfortunatly the sales order is deleted from SAP.

Transfer of material from sales order stock to subcontractor

Iam having subcontracting operation in routing. But i am not able to transfer of material from sales order stock to subcontractor when i do 541 movement

Dear Mayuresh,
You cannot move Sales Order assigned material directly to Sub contracting Vendor stock.
For doing so firstly unassign the Sales order stock by transaction MB1B & movement type 411E.
After this you can provide the stock to the vendor by transaction MB1B & movement type 541O.
Other way is to create account assigned Purchase Orders. Thereafter create virtual sub contractor storage location in your plant. Transfer your Sales Order assigned material to these Virtual locations so that you can see the stock provided to the vendor. Now during Goods Receipt of the finished goods you can consume the material by movement type 543E.

Subha.
