Sales promotion Add On for Wholesales Industry

Hi Expert,
We had the following requirement from prospect:
1. Example Buy 5(Item A) free 1(Item A)
System to auto insert FOC item without marketing people to memorise the sales promotion.
If buy 8, system will insert FOC item as 1 but if buy 10, FOC item will be 2.
2. Flexibility in setting sales promotion
Sometimes, the promotion could be buy 5(Item A) free 1(Item B)
3. It must allow user to analyse sales promotion performances without setting up multiple sales promotion to reduce number of master records.
4. It must allow for multiple unit of measurement as the FOC item could be item of lower unit of measurement eg buy 5 carton of Item A free 1 packet of Item B.
5. Allow for validity date setting for this promotion.
Wonder there is any workaround in 2007A or any available add on to cope with above requirement.
Regards
Thomas

Thomas,
Within the capabilities of the SAP Business One system (out of the box). The only possibility to accomplish this without the user manually entering would be set up a Sales BOM with the combination of (51) or (81) as the case may be.

Sales Organization Structure for Distribution Industry

Hi Experts,
Need some inputs wrt Distribution Industry
1. In Distributor set up. how should we set up the different manufactures which supply the products for distribution.
2. How should we link the manufactures to Products they supply.
3. How should we link the sales representatives to specific manufactures.
4. Would it be a wise decision to incorporate manufactures as a division in the organization structure. Or should we map the manufactures as vendors and maintain the Vendor Info records.
It would be really great if any one can share their experiences wrt to sales organization structure in the Distribution industry especially Pharma Distribution.
Regards,
KK

hi
this is to inform you that:
first of all i have a question to you. you are manufacturer of products that means are you paying excise duty for manufacturing products or only distributor of products.
1. In Distributor set up. how should we set up the different manufactures which supply the products for distribution.
1.a. You can consider if you are manufacturing and distrubuting products
If you are a manufacturer - tae material FERT if you are a distributor - tae HAWA asa material type.
2. How should we link the manufactures to Products they supply.
2.a. the organisation struccture lins each other & MMR also helps to lin
3. How should we link the sales representatives to specific manufactures.
3.a. it may be specific to divisions tae one sales group for each specific divisions.
4. Would it be a wise decision to incorporate manufactures as a division in the organization structure. Or should we map the manufactures as vendors and maintain the Vendor Info records.
4.a. manufacturer as a vendor and different products a divisions.
It would be really great if any one can share their experiences wrt to sales organization structure in the Distribution industry especially Pharma Distribution.
sales organizations : 2 - domestic & exports
distribution channels : 3 - retail - super stocists - C & F agents.
retail/wholesales/distributors/superdistributors/super distributors - all you can consider all into one distribution channel or tae as different distribution channels you have to analyse from reports perspective to have all these.
divisions - products = divisions lie cardiac - orthopedic to name a few.
sales office : you can have many as per your requriment.
sales group : basing on divisions = sales groups
company code = how many balance sheets you are submitting now to AAI that many company codes you have to have.
batch management with FIFO or LIFO strategy has to be mandatory in implementation.

SAP for Wholesale trading

Hi
what is the best solution for business, where Wholesale purchasing is done and Wholesale selling (keeping small margins)
if wholesale purchasing is done and both Whole sale selling is done and Retail selling is done - SAP IS Retail ?
what is the industry standard, and what SAPproducts or solutions are used in Wholesale Industry
thanks
rao

Dear Rao,
to decide if you are going to use ECC 6.0 with activated Retail Switch (SAP Retail ) or not, in my experience you have to take a close look at the processes that are supposed to be supported.
You mentioned Retail selling: are we talking about a Retail business where you connect POS systems to the ERP system and sell to consumers (more or less) always on the same price? This would be an indicator to use SAP Retail, as only this offers a POS Interface to download data (articles, prices, promotions..) to a POS system and also can process POS data (sales data, financial postings). But this just one out of several possible indicators.
A good way to start this process evaluation is actually to evaluate what kind of customers you have: known customer, for whom you need to calculate the sales prices within every sales transcation or consumers only. What processes concerning selling to customers need to be supported
You also might want to consider if you need one or more of the functionalities that only SAP Retail offers: e.g. Retail Promotion, Allocation table, the afore mentioned POS Interface, listing and assortment management. There also some limitations using SAP Retail compared with ECC 6.0 w/o Retail Switch which also need to taken into consideration. Please refer for more information to the Retail Wiki . In section "Special Topics" you find those two quite useful documents which will give you very detailled information:
SAP Retail Technology Facts and Retail Switch
Consequences of Activating the BF Set SAP Retail

Best Practice for manufacturing Industrial Machinery in batch size

Dear Sir,
We have a scenario where we need to manufacture Industrial Machine in a Batch Size of 10 nos . These machines have multi level BOM and total manufacturing cycle time is approx 3 months .
We request you to kindly suggest us about the best manufacturing practices related process we should follow to address this scenario .
At present , we have been manufacturing these Machines on individual basis ( It means MRP run is done for individual machne and production orders generated are also on individual machine manufacturing basis) .
We would be highly greatful for the suggested solution pl .
Rgds
Sonia Agarwala

Dear ,
Please use the following functionality in your case :
1.If you are particualr to have 10 pc in each batch qty then keep the Lot Size as Fixed Lot Sixe -FX with Fixed lot size qty as 10 in material master MRP1 view .
2.As your approximate manufacturing cycle is 3 motnhs , then you can have MRP run once three months for FG and plan your dependent accordingly through MRP .
3.If you are following MTS cycle , then create demand in MD61 or you can create direct Sales Order in VA01 for MTO process
4.Run MRP with NETCH ,1,1.3,3,2 , planned order with FG qty 10 pc will be generated and you can convert them into Production Order in MD04-Planned order-convert to PO

What is the Best practice for ceramic industry?

Dear All;
i would like to ask two questions:
1- which manufacturing category (process or discrete) fit ceramic industry?
2- what is the Best practice for ceramic industry?
please note from the below link
[https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=011000358700000409682008E ]
i recognized that ceramic industry is under category called building material which in turn under mill product and mining
but there is no best practices for building material or even mill product and only fabricated meta and mining best practices is available.
thanks in advance

Hi,
I understand that you refer to production of ceramic tiles. The solution for PP was process, with these setps: raw materials preparation (glazes and frits), dry pressing (I don't know extrusion process), glazing, firing (single fire), sorting and packing. In Spain, usually are All-in-one solutions (R/3 o ECC solutions). Perhaps the production of decors have fast firing and additional processes.
In my opinion, the curiosity is in batch determination in SD, that you must determine in sales order because builders want that the order will be homogeneus in tone and caliber, and he/she can split the order in diferents deliveries. You must think that batch is tone (diferents colours in firing and so on) and in caliber.
I hope this helps you
Regards,
Eduardo

Dimension that mention Sales Promotion Girls

Hi experts,
I have needs to generate report in OBIApps that show Top 10 New Contact Generating by Sales Promotion Girls (SPG).
May i know if in Marketing Analytics, is there any dimension that specify data of SPG?
I have already searched in W_EMPLOYEE_D, W_HOUSEHOLD_D and W_VENDOR_D but i find none of the data inserted in Siebel is recorded there.
Thanks,

So after several weeks of back and forth via AndreaS_VZW, I am glad to say Verizon has come through and resolved my issue. It was by no means an overnight process, and there were some hiccups along the way (not AndreaS_VZW's fault by any means), but thanks in large part to AndreaS_VZW I am now back to being a happy camper.
Kudos to AndreaS_VZW for her patience and professionalism throughout my ordeal. I also appreciated the fact that she provided me with unsolicited status updates during the process. Hope anyone else facing similar issues will have as much luck as I did.

Linking Sales Promotions to Statistical Internal Orders

We have two kinds of promotions here.
a) Consumer Promotion - reduced price for a particular period
b) Trade Promotion - Free goods - buy 10 get one free.
We are creating these promotion through standard SAP route with a validity period, and these get populated in the sales order order correctly.
The promotionional expenses are borne by the supplier (vendor). To debit his account with the appropriate expenses, we have created Statistical Internal orders (SIO) in CO, one per supplier account.
(We have developed a report where we accumulate all the values dueing these two above promotions and manually pass a JV in finance in the SIO.This is a long circuitous process and we are exploring other alternativesto make the values flow directly to the SIO)
If you double click on the sales order item, and proceed to Account Assignment tab, you will see an order no., where you can select the (SIO) no., which we are doing manually.
I am unable to find any place in configuration of Sales Promotion/Sales Deal/ SIO (definition) through which I can default the SIO no. in the sales order, so that the values can flow automatically.
Please help if possible.
Thanks & Regards

I think that this is not possible.

Need BOM related solution for Textile Industry (Weaving proces)

HIi,
Made to Order Strategy:
Every times customer sends the specification of product. Specification format as given below:
Ex. 80x100/154x80*3-118u201D 4/1 Twill
Details of specifications:
     80: Count of EPI (Ends Per Inch)
     100: Count of PPI (Picks Per Inch)
     154: EPI
     80: PPI
     3: Insertation
     118u201D u2013 Width in Inch
     4/1 Twill : Design of Fabric
Operations Details:
1 Warping
2. Sizing
3. Weaving
4. Quality Inspection
5. Packing
As Is Business Process:
There are mainly four production lines viz. Warping, Sizing, Weaving and Quality Inspection. For all the production lines the individual machine work centers will be as listed below with brief description:
1.     Sectional Warping:
A kind of Warping specially used to prepare fabrics for shirting. In sectional warping dyed yarns are used to prepare warping beam. The end constraint of sectional warping is 720 ends at a time. The actual capacity of Sectional warping is 800 MTR/min. This activity is job work for DEESAN group.
2.     Direct warping:
Direct warping process is used to prepare warping beam. The end constraint of warping is 1088 ends per beam. Machine width of the beam in 2200 mm, speed of warping varying from 300 MTR to 1200 MTR per minute depending upon the construction required. It has backup procedure for next round. Uploading speed   for single yarn is 8 yarn / min / person.
3.      Sizing:
Sizing process is used to prepare specific number of EPI/ beam as per the requirement of construction. A calculated no of warp beam used to prepare a single sizing beam. Speed of sizing 45 to 55 MTR / minute depending on the requirement of fabric.
4.     Preparation of Drawing:
This process is used to preparation of new drawing for the loom machine. Drawing includes frame & reed. It will take 12 hr for 2 persons to prepare a single drawing i.e. 8000 ends per shift. This activity given as job work to some group of people.
5.     Weaving:
Two types of weaving machines used are CAM and DOBBY. Fabric to fabric PPI is varying, the capacity of loom machine depends upon the PPI so the capacity of loom machines varying with the type of fabric. CAM is used specially for plain fabrics.
6.     Quality Inspection:
The beams of fabrics coming from looming machine are inspected on Inspection machine. 100% fabrics are inspected on QA machine for further grading, which is then bifurcated in Export, Local and chindi type.
7.     Rolling:
Rolling machine is used for rolling of inspected fabric on card board rolls according to the quality of fabric. A roll contain of maximum 350 MTR of fabric. Which are then packed with LDPE followed by HDPE with appropriate coding on rolls.
Material Requirement:
For ex. 80x100/154x90*3-118u201D 4/1 Twill
Order Qty.: 20000 M
Currently they are using single level BOM.
Formulas for calculate raw material requirements as given below:
Warp wt / mtr = (EPIWidthCrimp) /(1693*Count of EPI)
          = (154 * 118 * 1.025)/(1693 * 80)
          = 0.137524
          = 0.138 Kg/Mtr
Weft wt / mtr = (PPIInsertationWidth * Crimp) /(1693*Count of PPI)
          = (9031181.025)/(1693100)
          = 0.192891
          = 0.193 Kg/Mtr
Total Qty req:
Warp = 0.138 * 20000 + add 5% loss
     = 2898 KG
Weft = 0.193 * 20000 + add 4% loss
     = 4014 KG
Packaging material requirement :
1. Paper tube = Total order qty / approximately for 300 m 1 paper tube required + 5% loss
          = 20000 / 300 *1.05
          = 70
2. HDPE sheet = No. of paper tube * 0.4 KG
      = 70 * 0.4
     = 28 KG
3. LDPE sheet = No. of paper tubes * 0.15 KG
          = 70 * 0.15
          = 10.5 KG
Chemical consumption in terms of yarn on KG basis. Its combination of 4-6 chemicals depends on construction to construction also material availability.
Note: We will consume chemicals against cost center.
Production planning at execution time:
Sizing and warping calculation:
1.     Sizing :
EPI per inch = 154
On loom will be = 154 * 1.025
           = 157.85
Total no of ends for 118u201D width = 157.85 * 118
                    = 18626
Add one more ends per 1000 ends = 18626 / 1000
                    = 19 ends
Total no of ends = 18626 + 19
          = 18645 for sizing
Warping :
Warping m/c capacity of output is 1088 Ends per set/beam.
Speed of machine 300-1200 MPM.
So for sizing we need 18645 ends. Now we want to calculate no warp set required for sizing & no. of ends per warp set.
Ends required per set = 18645 / 18 = 1036
     i.e. 18 * 1036 = 1 Sizing set
We need total yarn on KG basis
Issue related to BOM:
1.     How We can feet below 2 issues in BOM
a.     we want to calculate RM(Yarn) material requirement in Unit of u201CENDu201D
NOTE: Procurement of Raw material Unit- KG as well as it depends no. of ends required for warp set / beam. i.e. its multiple of yarn cone required for 1 warp set.
As per Bom of Raw Martial Unit- Ends (EA)
b.     Also we want to calculate no of warp set required for sizing and no of ends required for warping process.

Power BI Add-On for Office 365 Promo SKU

I have a customer who is trying to purchase the Power BI Add-on for Office 365 but is unable to do so without adding additional Office 365 licenses first. This customer already owns 1,000 Office 365 E3 licenses purchased some time ago based on an existing
promotion at the time. Any insight as to what the reason might be behind this?
Thank you for your help.
Kalina

There is currently an issue where add-ons can not be purchased for pre-paid base offers. This might be the issue depending on what the original E3 promotion was. I'd recommend contacting Customer Support for assistance.

Excise add-on for trading company

Hi,
My clinet is dealing in trading company . Most of the items are excisable items. If some one has documentation or add-on for the trading company, please guide me.
Thanks and Regards,
Rajeeve Agarwal

HI Rajeev,
Unfortunately, there is no standard document available for Trading Excise.
You can implement the complete trading procedure in SAP Business One without any add on too. There can be various scenarios which may arise if its a trading only or manufacturing and trading company. You have to study these in details (both sale and purchase side as they may purchase from traders too who may include the duties in the unit price and you have to calculate the duties in SBO and trust me this would be the tricky part ). There can be many a scenarios for purchase and relatively less for the sales side. I am saying this based on the experience which I have so far for implementing SBO for trading / manufacturing and trading companies.. You can create udf's and fms to capture the complete details.
It would not be possible to explain the complete process here. What you can do is that you can create threads in the forum for each question (scenario) that you have and you will get answers from the forum.
Hope helpful.
Thanks,
Joseph
