Same Material with different itemcatagory groups

We have 3rd party manufacturers that make product for company and sometimes they send the finished product back to company and other times they will drop ship it to one of our customers.
this scenario we need to have the same material with different itemcatagory groups
i tried to create same material with different storage locations, but it's possible but the thing is when i change the item catagory group for the material , the same is applicable for 2nd same material, my requirement is i need 2 different itemcatagory for the same material, hope u understand my requirement
i will be expecting your possible replys.
Thanks & Regards
Venkat.Dhanemkula

Hi Venkat..
Please explain it more clear manner..
With whatever i have understand, i think you scenerio is manual 3rd party order processing.
In that case the material that you normally deliver yourself but occasionally need to order from a third-party vendor, you can overwrite the item category during sales order processing.
Keep only one material and specify the item category group NORM in the material master.
If, as an exception, you use a third-party material, change the entry TAN to TAS in the ItCa field when processing the sales document. The item is then processed as third-party item.
hope it helps you.

Same material with Different qualities

Dear Experts,
Please give me the solution for mentioned issue ....
I have to maintain the same material which has different qualities (grades) and according to these qualities, the material rate is different. i have near about 50 different qualities for the same material and 50 different rates.
My every vendor is supplying this material for 50 different qualities and rates. So in this case to maintain the individual material prices is big challenge.
If i will maintain Info records, i have to maintain 200000 info record. and also there is possibility of price change for every three months.
So please give me any other alternative solution for the problem.

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')

MF60 scenario - same material with different orders

Hello,
I am using MF60 to transfer the stock from raw material location to Production location. I transfers the goods based on each production order.
Now the scenario is: I have two tins of paint each weight 20 kg.
My current order needs 8 kg of paint and it would take 3 days to finish the order(on Machine A). It means rest of the 12kg would be available after 3days.
Now I am creating 2nd order(on Machine B) of smaller qty and that order requires 2 kg of the same paint. I have to use the 2nd tin of paint. Now when I try to use MF60, system does not propose me qty (as 12 kg paint is already available in Production location but canu2019t be used as it is on machine A).
So please suggest me, how I can transfer the material to production location using MF60. I donot want to use the MB1B.
kind regards,
JPS

Hello Mangalraj.S,
I have checked with workcenter also (removing the selection date) and set the 'all requirements' in global setting.
But it does not showed the particular components (against the order in question) but does showing those other which needs higer quanties
Can you please explain more in detail regarding your requirement?-- The requirement is that If I have two tins of paint (20kg each), if first order require needs 8kg (but rest of the 12kg won't be available physically), Now in the 2nd order which needs 5kg. System does not propose the requirement in MF60 (I believe because of there is 12 kg already available in prod location on the system)
Also please execute the pull list by giving the work center as the input and do not specify any date in the selection horizon for
requirements.Include the check for include all requirements under global settings.---- I did opt the same settings but it is not propsing 2nd order requirements
In the second tab production/process orders,just give the input as the work center and check for the same.---- In the 2nd tab I did try with workcenter but..... (I am not a PP expert, this is the first time I am working on PP, So I have created the routing without workcenter and assings the workcenter in prod order only)

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,

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.

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.

WRP1 considering Articles with different Purchase group

Hi
Gurus,
We
are facing issue in WRP1 program, in production system one STO is created
for many articles with different purchase group with same site,
But
My understanding is that when replenishment happens, different STOs will
be created for different purchase group for same site and client is also
expecting same thing...
Issue
- In STO articles are belongs to same site but different purchase
group, in PO header its updated purchase group as 002 but if check line items
Articles are from many purchase group like, 001 , 002 , 003 etc....
When
in header its showing purchase group as 002 it should consider articles
with same purchase group but its combining all articles belongs to same site
irrespective of purchase group.
Kindly advise
Regards,
Vinay

Hi Vinay,
It's standard system behaviour. PO group on header level is for reporting purposes, it's not scoping the allowed articles on the item lines. Therefore, WRP1 creates the STO with a mixture of articles of several purchase groups.
Perhaps this apporach might be feasible for your challenge:
- In stead of creating STO, create purchase requisition as follow on document from WRP1 processing (see Store Order Control in SPRO);
- after WRP1 processing, run ME59N (also possible in background) for the purch. reqs. created in WRP1 with the parameter 'Per purchasing group' (and perhaps also 'Per site'). This should result in STO's per site/purchase group.

Johan

Material with Different grades

Dear Guru's,
Here in my client, for one material they are having 5 different grades based on the quality, Like A,B,C,D & E
How we need to maintain them in single mmr, because they are procuring @ different prices based on the quality.
My PP guy dont want different material #, based on grades, due to problem in BOM, can i maintain these grades in single mmr or is there any better way to manage this ?
pls suggest
Regds,

hi,
Use split valuation...by this you can procure same materials with different valuation type...
Split valuation refers to the valuation type on a material master. Typically, organisations will want to track material costs, for example, for new, used or repaired stock. The valuation type field on the material master allows you to track this stock separately, and specify what type of stock is being moved or purchased, and charge appropriately. There are follow-on effects, of course, in finance account assignments etc.

HT2905 I have multiple album titles of the same name with different artists. How can I get them to go under one album title again?

I have multiple album titles of the same name with different artists. How can I get them to go under one album title again?

In iTunes(on a Mac or PC) just tap on 'Albums' rather than 'Artists' and you'll see them all together.
You may find that there are songs mislabelled. In which case right tap on the Album or Artist and tap 'Get Info', then change to the correct name and the songs will join the rest of the songs for that Artist or Album.
Then resync with your iPhone and all will be well.

Load the library which doesn't contain the songs and drag them into the open iTunes application window. If you need to move them between different computer user accounts, put them into /Users/Shared/.

They can, but not at the same time.
If one user left iTunes running, and another user tries to use iTunes from a different Windows user ID, that second user will get an error message. If they really want to use iTunes, they either have to beg the first user to log in and close iTunes, or else they have to restart the computer.
If you are asking the technical reason why, it is something about context switching.

Alternatively, partition your internal HD and dual-boot it. Do note that you have to reboot to switch back and forth. You can't do it by logging out and back in.

Sure. Each iPod is identified in iTunes with its own name and you configure each one as you wish:
