Sales order v/s Reservation

Dear Friends,
Please advise as how to overcome this situaton. All the Reservations done against a Sales order are being consumed by new sales orders.
Eg: Part A has unrestricted stock of 20 Units.
I created Sales order 51230 for 10 units. Then I created a Reservation(MB21) for the same sales order for another 10 units. Now my availale stock is O. When I am creating a new sales order 51331, the Reservation stock of 10 units is being stolen by new sales order. Pleae advise how to avoid this???

Hi sanjay
First of all check wheather , availability check is happening or not.
So check in Material master record for that material, wheather stratergy group , availabilty check and MRP type has been maintained or not .
If they are maintained check in MD04 wheather the order which is getting confirmed must have been showing in the open order only.

Sales Order/A/R Reserve Invoice & Inventory Transfer

Hi
Suppose I have 2 warehouses A and B. A has 3 units of a particular good and B has 6 units of that same good.
I understand that if I want to create an A/R invoice for a sale of 7 units of the good, I have to transfer 1 unit from A to B or 4 units from B to A before the tax invoice can be created. Does this requirement to have the stocks in one warehouse also apply to an A/R reserve invoice? Can I create an A/R reserve invoice for 7 units of the good before the transfer is performed?
My second question is this.
A sales quotation may be created when the required goods are in different warehouses. Can I create a sales order with the required goods still in different warehouses?
Thank you for your patience with my questions as I am new to SAP B1 and do not have access to a test system at the moment.

Hi,
Only Delivery or normal invoices are related to inventory. For Sales Order/A/R Reserve Invoice, you do not need Inventory Transfer.
Thanks,
Gordon

Sales Order Management - Stock reservation

Need some help on the solution for a sales order management situvation for a hardline retailer
A hardline retailer takes direct orders for customer at the store and the stock is delivered to the customer from the warehouse.
They have one central warehouse all stores check for inventory at the warehouse before creating the sales order.
Once the stock availbility is checked , the sales associate at the store accepts the order and takes acceptance on the delivery dates and process the payment (100% advance) in the POS and then creates a sales order in IS retail
Problem: The process post the inventory check step takes 20 min and often there are situvations where the stock is reserved for some other store . The stores often have unfulfilled orders despite checking inventory before sales order system.
Question : How can this be handled , is there any way store can block the stock required during which the sales process is completed.

Hi Madhav,
spontaneously, I have the following idea:
You could create a different storage location in the DC/Warehouse (Storage location "Sales Orders).
When you make the availability check, you check general stock. If there is stock and the stores wants to use this, you could create a transfer posting from general stock to sales orders stock.
So, the stock is no longer available for other stores which look at the general stock.
After that, you can proceed sales order processing. The delivery process should use the sales order storage location, which can be customized.

Reserving the sales order stock for a customer

Hello SAP gurus !!
My client is wants to Reserve the stocks once the order is placed or confirmed by the Customers.
For Example; --
If 10 c/s are available in the plant and a customer has ordered 10 c/s... next time .. if someone is creating order for the same Material, system should not confirme sales Order as this particular stock has already booked by the customer.
Can we MAP this scanario in creating DUMMY sales order??
I have also tried to move the sales order stock to Reserved Stock by creating Reservations (Tcode MB21) using movement type 412 E.
but i m not sure whether i m on the right way or wrong??
Please help me on this particular issue. Points will be rewarded for Helpful answers.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ravi
Actually we have started this particular issue with Product Allocation only.... but the problem with product allocation is : you can not reserve/block the stocks even if it has been allocated to other customers.
If some other user is creating the sales Order for some other customer, system will confirm and you can do the delivery also.
Basically Client want to first allocate( here allocation could be through creation of Dummy Sales Order also) then also want to BLOCK /RESERVE for those customers... so that nobody should be allowed to use those Stocks.
We have Already tried with:--
1. Product Allocation
2. OVZ9 ( checking Group 02/ Sales Order Combination)
3. MB21 ( creating Reservation with Movement Type 412 E)
4. Consignment Process
& some other Options but exact requirement has not been met.
Now we are trying to solve this Issue using some scenarios Other than Prod Alloc.
I hope i have clearly explained the requirement still you have any doubts, please revert back.
Thanks in advance
Warm Regards,
MAYANK

Reserve Batch in Sales order

Hi Friends,
We have Automatic batch determination at delivery level and when i give some batch at Sales order level to reserve, syetem in not considering that and issuing the same batches in delivery at the time of automatic batch determination at delivery level.
I want batch determination at delivery level but if any batch that is given at sales order level should get ignored at the time of Automatic batch determination at delivery.Can any one share your experience or add some information how to proceed with.
Thanks & Have a nice day.

Hi,
I am not sure what level of authorization is assigned to the users, who create the sales order. If they have authorization to use MSC2N -Change batch, then my first suggestion is, if no auto batch search strategy is used in sales order,
1) Add a batch characteristic called "reservation status" which can have values 1) reserved for sales order and 2) not reserved. Once the user selects the batch in the sales order, the user then can change the batch status as reserved for sales order using MSC2N. Similarly in the batch search strategy you can have the same characteristics and the user can select the value not reserved for the characteristics "reservation status". This way the batches assigned in the sales orders can be kept away from getting selected in the delivery document.
If the user does not have the authorization to use MSC2N and if the sales order also uses the same batch search strategy then my second suggestion is,
2) To use the quantity proposal field in the batch search strategy type.
You can develop and add a routine to check whether the batch selected is assigned to a order or not.
If the batch is allocated to a sales order, then the auto determination proposal can leave that batch from the proposal.

Stock movement in the sale order

Hi Gurus,
Can any one explain me how to configure the stock movement in the sale order. Our client has MTO and MTS types of production process. For MTO, once production process completed stock will come to the sale order. In case of MTS, when sale order created system is considering the stock lying in the unrestricted use. Instead of this we would like to have the validation such that first user should move the stock from unrestricted to sale order. ( here system should not consider materials lying in the unrestricted use).
Kindly let us know the processing steps for MTS scenario.

Madhu

Sales Orders-Collective Billing [Primary Sales Agent-Sub Agent-EndCustomer]

Dear all,
Our company is a FerryBoat operator and the following sales schema is used: Primary Sales Agents - PSA sell Tickets to interested parties - End Customers via Subagents - Brokers.
Via our Reservation system (not SAP) an interested party can buy a reservation using the services of a subagent who has online access to the system. In case of Trucks the reservation System issues a type of Cargo Invoice for the End Customer (ie the company that owns the truck). Our company is paid by the PSA of our SubAgent.
Up to now for each truck reservation, within our SAP back office we created a SalesOrder via an IDOC, with the following Info:
SoldTo      = the SubAgent ( has a view in SalesOrganization as a customer - KNVV )
ShipTo      = the SubAgent ( We didnu2019t keep the EndCustomer in our SAP system )
BillTo, PayTo = The PSA ( has a view within the CompanyCode data u2013 KNB1 )
Billing is collective and each billing document includes many Sales orders for the Same PSA. The Accounting Document is a summarized one
Debit PSA-Payer / Credit Revenue .
From the Billing document an output Statement is produced and sent to the PSA.
We are obliged from 01.01.2010 to reflect the End Customer sale in our SAP accounting System, even though we will still be paid by the PSA. So the accounting department proposes something like this
1.     Debit EndCustomer / Credit Revenue     for each CargoInvoice-many End Customers
2.     Debit PSA / Credit End Customer          (summarized)
The same Output statement should be produced and sent to PSA since he will continue to pay us.
It is clear that from now on we should keep a record of the End Customer within our SAP system (should be opened in KNB1) From what I understand the Sales order should have the following info
SoldTo = the SubAgent
ShipTo = the End Customer
BillTo=?
PayTo=?
Should we have new Business partner functions? How can we achieve this via SD. What should be the Businness partners involved in each Sales order u2013 Truck reservation ? Is it possible to have a single BillingDocument for the whole production of a PSA as we had before ?
Thank you in advance for any hint-tip.

Creation of purchase order from sales order

Hi,
I have met the following business case I can't manage using SBO standard:
I have a sales order with a reserve invoice already created.
When I press the "purchase order" flag (ORDR.PoPrss), the purchase order window does not pop up and no purchase order is created when I update the sales order.
I assume this is link to the fact that the reserve invoice has already been created.
Is there any workaround to be able to build up the link between the sales order and the purchase order ?
Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
I haven't test this but if you start with AR reserver invoice ,then SO and then PO ..it might be possible ..
Other wise
You have to do SO ..then PO then only AR reserve invoice
Hope this makes sense

Delete sales order with Purchase Order

Dear SD Guru,
We need to flag a material to be relavant for batch management but sales order already exists for this material. In this sales order, PO has been generated.
I need to delete the sales order but I'm not allowed to because of the subsequent PO. All items in the PO have been rejected because PO cannot be deleted. All items in the sales order have been rejected but I still can't flag the materials to be batch managed as it is still saying the sales order is holding the material, eventhough I have rejected all the materials in the sales order.
Is there any way to delete the sales order? Because of this sales order, we can't change the material to be batch-managed.
Please advice.
Regards,
Soo

HI KAH KIONG SOO,
IN ORDER TO VERIFY UR PROBLEM, GO TO MD04,BCOZ WHEN EVER U CREATE SALES ORDER STOCK GET RESERVE , IT MEANS U CANNOT CREATE THE ORDER THE THE SAME QTY. SO FIRST U CHECK MD04, AND IN SALES ORDER GO TO REASON FOR REJECTION FOR THAT PARTICULAR LINE ITEM INSTEAD DELETE THE SALES ORDER.
WHEN U PUT REASON FOR REJECTION FOR THE LLINE ITEM , THE MATERIAL WILL BE RELEASED FROM THE BLOCK.
REGARDS,

Moving sales order stock from Q to Unres. - does not update LS24

Hi
We have an issue where a material is received in Q status. Then it is moved to unrestricted using 321. Then using 411 E the material is transferred from unrestricted-use special stock E (sales order stock) to unrestricted-use companys own stock.
But when we go back and check the status of the material in LS24, it still shows up as Q status. Whereas in mmbe it shows shows up as changed to Unrestricted status.
Does anyone know why LS24 is not getting updated and is still showing that stock is in Quality status?
Thanks

There can be two reasons for these kind of error
- Your sales doc while creating this order & your item category is marked with special stock indicator as E and after this order is created you have not reserved stocks in your plant against this order. This reservation can be done in tcode MB1B movement type 412 E.
- Let say, if it is reserved then check the same in tcode MMBE stocks reserved for your sales order.
Otherwise reservation you may have done properly with correct movement types with special stock indicator E. But while creating the your sales order with item category may not have been marked with special stock indicator E. In this case even though the system has stocks reserved for that order and that order when comes for PGI system doesn't sense.
In either of the case, you have to again do the process.
Hope it can assist you.
Thanks & Regards

Sales Order document Settlment

Hi,
In our business scenario as make to order case Sales Order costing is done in Sales Order level. Here one Sales Order consist with 29 production order. After salese order we do MRP run for for planned delivery, then Production Order creation, Production Order Confirmation, Production Order goods received to Sales Order, then WIP settlment on Production Order. Production Order WIP value posted to GL account with P&L and BS GL. After that Sales Order delivery, then WIP on Sales Order through KKA3 and Sales order settlment through VA88 for WIP vlaue posted to GL account. After that Customer Billing is created. If there is remaining stock then received production order goods to sales order, Production order final settlment, WIP will be reverse here in P&L and BS GL. Customer delivery in stock and final customer billing will be done. No WIP will occur in Sales Order lelvel. And finally Sales Order settlment. Sales Order is settled either COPA or GL account. We are not using COPA. Sales order is settled to GL account and it must be category 22 as primary cost element inP&L. I have one doubt while do sales order settlement sender is my Sales Order number. One Cost elment gl whose category is 22 is already maintained under Settlment Allocation structure against reciver category GL(P&L). But Sales Order number under settlment rule which GL I can put ? It will be P&L GL or BS GL because I have already checked in test mode both are taking as PL gl and BS gl. What should be ideally use ? Through this settlment value will flow to Cost of Sales and Revenue settlment which will appear in Sales hierarchy report. Previous testing same gl I put under settlment receiver of Sales dcoument number which is being used in allocation structure. In accounting same PL GL was debited and Credited.
So I request you to kindly tell me what GL nature should I use under Settlment receiver. I have to settle Profit in GL.
Best Regards,
Samrat

Hi,
I have one doubt. This GL will be PL gl. One PL gl is debite and another PL gl is credited with plan profit value and change in wip is debit and wip is credit. But the doubt which I have "Is it requires final Sales Order settlment after completing final sales billing" ? Because I have done sales order settlment after final billing, and Total Reserve has generated under report KKAC(Sales Hierarchy). Is the right the process. ? I think Sales Order settlment should be only when WIP will be gengerated on Sales Order level and to post WIP value to Sales order settlement gl. After final billing if I settle sales order number total reserves will appear..

Samart Roy

Make to Stock - Sales order stock allocation

Hello Experts,
In the make to stock scenario, how do I allocate certain stock to a sales Order? For example, with my company, there could be 30 items in a sales order. All item stocks are not available at the time of Order placed. As we make the stock, we want the stock to be allocated to this sales order. Is there any way to do that?
Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
As my understanding, there is no such assignment function to MTS sales order in standard SAP.. The possible solutions I ve touched include..
1, 'convert' MTS to MTO.. It requires that you can change the item category in sales order.. Once stock for one item is fulfilled.. Change the item category in sales order from MTS to MTO and move the corresponding stock from normal stock to sales order stock via 413..
2. Rely on the SD ATP logic..if your product categories are not so many.. The tipical ATP configration is that for sales order, the ATP scope includes stock, production order, purchase order..etc and ATP checking scope for DN is only against on-hand stock.. ATP checking and/or rescheduling for Sales orders gives out a sequency of confirmed delivery date, meaning, all the sales orders are queued for deliverying in system based on the ATP status.. DNs need to be created strictly according to the confirmed delivery date in sales order.. This way actually raises a very high management requirement to business..
3.If you use batch management, you can also consider 'batch determination' for this assignment..
4,In one of my previous project, they use 'consignment process' for such MTS assignment.. Such assignment business in that client is not a normal process and it is only applicable for some VIP customers.. If the stock is not enough to fulfill all the demand in the sales order, they create a special consignment fill-up order to 'delivery the goods on hand to customer consignment stock', while warehouse places special label on these goods when they 'PGI' the consignment fill up delivery.. This way ensures that the goods can not be withdrawed by other Sales order and/or reservations..

Availability Check Screen while creating sales order

Hi
If I see the stock level in MMBE , I find enough stock for some materials .But when I create the sales order for those materials , system is taking to availability check screen .
I am going and saving the sales order and trying to create delivery for that sales order but system is giving error that u201Cno schedule lines due for upto selected dateu201D .
What could be the problem and Hoh I can fix it please .
Jaya

Hi Jaya
1. Enough stocks in MMBE means what?
Have you got enough stocks in unrestricted use
This needs to be checked
2. IN OVZ9 t code for your checking group of the material in MMR and checking rule A (sales order) there is a check box of include sales requirements
If that is ticked upon saving a sales order stocks are reserved for that order
Like that there might be some open orders existing for the item
You can see the list of such open orders in VA05N
Hence the system is taking you to availability check screen while creating order because there are not much stocks for this fresh order
You have saved that inspite of that
Hence there are no schedule lines in your order
Hence there is problem in delivery
Create the delivery on the scheduled dates given by the system in the schedule lines
