Same material different batches

Hello,
Here at my customer we want the following. When a material is purchased, or produced it will be stored in our warehouse. The material is batched managed but the problem is that different batches are stored at the same location. This is not what is expected. It should be as described below:
Material AA Batch 12345 store location XYZ
Material AA Batch 98765 store location KLM
what is to be done to make this possible so that every batch from the same material is strored at a different store location.
( but for customizing as well as for MM masterdata if possible.)
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kees,
If the only thing you want is the information of the storage bin (or maybe picking location) of one batch you can create a characteristic in a batch class to record it. At goods receipt the user can record the storage bin for each new batch or change an existing one. Or even record more than one bins by batch.
Mind you, it is not a stock management solution like SAP WM, it is merely informative, similar to the "Storage Bin" in material master view "Plant Data/ stor. 1". There is no direct relation between stock quantities and this characteristic.

Edgar

How to create Inpection Lot Z01 & 04 Type for same Material different Plans

I am trying to create an Inspectoin Lot for two different Inspection Types. One for (Z01) Incoming Inspection via MIGO and the other for (04) GR Inspection for Production via MFBF. The problem is I have the same Material for two different Inspection Plans. The Z01 Inspection Type was copies from the 01 Inspection Type only difference is I activated the Multiple Specs feature for Z01.
1st Plan = Materia Group....BM206014, Group Counter....1 (GR Incoming Inspectoin Z01 type)
2nd Plan = Material Group....BM206014, Group Counter....2 (GR Inspection for Production 04 type)
A) When I do the (Material Backflush) MFBF for the 04 type, the Inspection Lot gets created OK. I then can go into QA32 and assign the correct Inspection Plat by clicking the Inspection Lot button.
B) When I do the MIGO via the Purchase Order (type Z01), it will not create the Lot if I have the Multiple Specs selected in the QM Material Master MM02. If, I turn off the Multiple Specs in the QM Material Master and create a new PO and MIGO, it will create the Lot, however, it automatically assigns the lot to the wrong Inspection Plan (2nd Plan see above) I need to be able to select the plan like I can with the 04 type.
Is their some setting that can be changed in Config or somewhere that acts the same way as example A above?

For case A, create insp plan with usage "1- production" If you have one IP with this usage for given material then system will assign Plan to lot automatically. In your case for second plan update usage as 1.
For case B, system should assign 1st plan make sure for both plan udage is correct. for 1st plan usage should be 5 while 2nd plan usage should be 1. Now if your 1st have status 4 and key date before lot date then system will assign plan auto.
Thanks!!!

Inspection lot summary when GR post to same material and batch

Dear Experts,
The business flow is, when material with same batch number come to plant, this batch may split and post to different storage location.
we have tried setting control inslot parameter to "2 For each material batch and storage location" but it only work within one storage location.
can any expert suggest idea about this thing, thanks a lot.

You'll only be able to stop the second lot from being created. You won't be able to update an open, existing inspection lot because of the different storage location. SAP can't have two segments of inventory linked to the same insp. Lot.
Are you using batch status at your plant? As an alternative, you could create the batches with a restricted batch status. Then the whole batch, regardless of storage location shows as restricted stock. Use the user exit to prevent creation of additional insp lots. When the first insp lot is completed, the batch status can be changed via the UD stock posting to unrestricted stock. When this happens, all stock of the batch in all other storage locations will change to unrestricted stock.

Same Material with Different G/L Account

Hi Everybody,
I have a material X is for HALB .I want use X is for Stock Material and as well as Special Procurement Q i.e Project stock.Those stock should be posted to different G/L account.Is it possible can anyone put me on this.

Hi,
1.
Generally, split valuation is to valuate the same material differently based on various criteria (external/internal procurement, country of origin, etc)

2.
However, (independently form the topic of split valuation), you can maintain separate valuation class for project stock. Check Accounting1 view of material master and you will find a separate field for this purpose (MBEW-QKLAS, 'Proj. stk. val. class')

Two materials with same material code

There are 2 components of a split AC, say Indoor unit and outdoor unit.
Now we purchase the two materials with the same material code.
Once an order is received, these two units are picked and sold. For easy identification, both the materials are procured under the same material code,
However, this does not give any visibility on the actual stock status of each component. So we have decided to have two different material codes.
When these are sold, we want to be able to use a BOM that will bind these two materials. However, there is no production activity involved. This will help us in printing the Header material on all documents like say Excise Invoice (Split AC Model 4354 - 1 EA)
Is there a possibility in SAP to attain this ?
Amit

Hi Amit,
you are not going to create two material codes in case of split valuation.
you can refer the following links for split valuation

or for your requirement you can manage the sam ewith different batches one is for internal and other is for external.

Different Batch no of same material kept in same Bin

Dear Gurus,
my putaway strategy I and capacity check method 3
and addition stock x and want mixed storage with one material number with different batch no
placed in same Bin but iam getting error "Mixed storage C only allowed in block storage managed for storage units"
pls suggest how to proceed.
Regards,
suresh.

Hi Suresh,
How your TO screen layout appears ? at the time of creation is it single line Item.
Please change it & see. With TO screen control "1" i.e. Putaway , option at header level comes up "Add to existing stock" and that will allow you to take Material with different batches in same BIN.
Please post outcome of above proposed way , will try to find some workaround.
Thanks,

Putaway in Warehouse to Bin with same material but different batch

Hi Everyone,
I'd appreciate some help on this as I'm a bit perplexed.
When a Goods Receipt (MIGO) is being done we have a problem with the Stock not going to the correct Storage Bin. Basically we require to find a storage bin with the same material and add the receipted material to the storage bin.
However the system will not let us do this becuae the batch for the material is different and the system doesnt put the material away into the desired storage bin. Instead the system puts the material in Storage Type 902 with the PO number as the Storage Bin.
The functional consultant has asked me to implement a user exit to search for a storage bin with the same material as is being Goods Receipted and put the material in this bin. I have a problem with this becuase there is no TO being created once the MIGO is done so I dont know where to start on this problem.
To illustrate
1. Migo is done on Material 1234
2. A user exit should search for a bin already containing Material 1234 (ignoring batch) and add this receipted material to the bin.
Is this possible ??
Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thank you very your time.
Kind Regards
DK

HI,
I hope system will allow to store same material with different batch numbers in the same Bin.
System will treat it as separate quants in the Bin since Batch no: is different.
In this case you can try with Putaway strategy - I - addition to existing stock itself.
If you face any issue regarding Auto-TO creation, check the below link.
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/c6/f85c504afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm]
Also try to do a manual TO creation with reference to the TR in the above case in Simulation system so that you will be able to know the exact reason for the error.
Thanks & Regards,

How to Maintain two different prices for same material in different qty?

Dear all,
How to maintain two different prices for same material in different batch quantities in purchase order(ie.,info record)?
(Vendor is supplying quantities in 2 different batches & also in different prices)
Expecting valuable reply.
Jeyakanthan

In a PO you can create 2 items, and each item can be maintained with a different price in the conditions.
In info record it is not possible to have different prices for the same period, except for scales.
so if you have a price of e.g. 2 USD for 1000 kg and 1,90 USD for 2000 kg then you can maintain this in scales, but you still have to have 2 items in the PO so that each one can individually find its price.
Alternative you can create contracts (as well with more than one item) to reflect the different prices and batches.

Putaway Strategy I, not allowing second material with different batch

Hi all,
Can someone please help me to understand where is the problem
My config is
Strg Typ 401
Putaway Strategy I
Capacity check - 4
Mixed storage: X
Addition to existing stock: X
Storage section check -active
Storage bin created for the storage section in the storage type 401
Maximum capacity maintained in Storage bin
In material master WM view 1- maintained capacity.
When system is correctly finding Bin for First material / Batch combination
But when I am trying to create TO for same material with different batch it does not find storage bin - even the storage bin capacity is still remaining
Also it is not accepting second material in same bin.
The only requirement to have startegy I is that same materials can be placed in same Bins (sorry but dont need fixed bin)
Thanks

Hi Hiren,
You are correct I forgot to mention that in my earlier reply. Actually with out storage unit you can store only one quant in a Bin. So it can add stock to the same quant if we use addition to existing sock feature. If the material batch combination changes it cannot use the same quant, so it wont be able to add the stock to existing quant. If a new quant is to be stored in the same BIN it has to be storage unit managed. To in nutshell multi material multi batch your scenario can be achieved with storage unit managed storage type.
For storage unit setup you can refer below link.
Storage Unit Management - Warehouse Management System (WMS) - SAP Library
If you find this useful please close the tread.

Automatic batch determination when more items have the same material

Hi guys,
I have a problem with automatic batch determination in the delivery note where more items has the same material number.
For example:
Sales order items
Item   Material   Q
1        130         5 kg
2        130         4 kg
Stock for this storage location is:
material    batch    Q
130           1000     3kg
130           1001     7kg
When I create delivery note I get this:
Item   Material   Q   Batch
1       130
90001 130       3     1000
90002 130       2     1001
2       130
90003 130       3     1000
30004 130       1     1001
As you can see, both items has the same batches. This is not good, when post goods issue. Normally there is no stock availaible for both items.
Is there any customizing to do this correctlly?
Thanks for an ansver.
BR, Matic

What is the purpose of giving the same material as second line item.
specify in the first line item itself.
or els the condition record which you have specified that for 100 material of A gives 10 material of B modify it to 10 of A should give 1 material of B
The first you will be useful for you.

If we had "Different quant of same material in same bin " then it is mixed storage ?
Please share your knowledge.
Thanks & Regards,

Dear syed,
But according to defination mixed storgage means different material in same bin.
But your saying that different quant of same material in same bin is mixed storage.

Batch to batch transfer of same material is not possible

We are doing batch to batch transfer of same material no. through MB1B in a plant which is depot. This is not happening and error message is coming "Batch to batch transfer of same material is not possible" msg no. 00398.
We tried the same transaction in mfg. plant and it is allowing the batch to batch transfer of same material no.
Full marks for earliest best solution.

Choubey Ji
Normally when you want to do stock transfer and change the batch of a material then we use M Type 309 via MB1B...in your case..you are doing this within a single plant...which i don't think is possible.
Correct me if i am wrong.

Same material master in two company codes with batch management

Hi,
There are two company codes in one client. In one batch management is already active. But in another company code batch management is not required. Is it possible to have batch management active in one company code and inactive in another company code where both the co. codes are in the same client? The same material master to be used in both company codes.
Thanks,
Satya.

Hi Satyabarata,
As far as you dont want to move the same materiel i.eStock Transfer with Inter comapy billing scenario then it will be fine.
If you try to Transfer a Batch manged material into a non batch manged CC it will work fine. But on the other hand when do via-versa the system will ask for the Batch information where the Batch management is active.
If you want to use same Material Master for both CC then its not advisable.
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thx.

Different pricing for same material in 2 line items

Dear All ,
In a sales order i have two line items of same material . One with the item category TAN and another REN . line item with TAN is the normal sale item while as second line item is for Return of same materail . .
Now i want Different pricing for the Normal sale item and Return item in single sales order . The pricing has to come automaticaly through the condition records
Please suggest me how to do it
Thanks in Advance .
Satish

Hi,
Add the item category (field name: PSTYV) to the allowed fields in the pricing condition table.
create new conditon table include the field item category.
create a access seq that includes your new condition table
Assign that access seq to the condition type which is assigned to the pricing procedure.
create the condition records.
This will solve your problem.
Note:
How will your customers accept if you reduce the price while returning?
Otherwise create new discount type that including the condition table which contains the field item categry.
And create condition record for that item category.
Hope this will solve your problem
