SD - Retail functions on R/3

I am trying to map some function which are Retail Specific in an R/3 Implementation . I need suggestions for approach to these 2 specific scenerios .
1. How do I handle initial Cash payment for purchase made , It can be partial payment , full payment , any % tage of payment due.Like SD order the billing Document is generated after Billing but we need a mechasim to handle the intial payment.
2. Second part of Payment due is basically paid by company but Customer pays back that in installments with interest Charges , So Customer may pay 10% of intial payment but 90% is financed at 24% interest .
I am unable to think of functions in R/3 SD which even come near to the functions required.

Well I have looked into billing plan but these are the issues I am running into .
Billing Plan splits the Billing into multiple sets and Revenue dates are also defered based on that .
The Business works this way
1) After Down payment is made - The rest of the Due is financed and they want the installment splits to be made at this stage .
2) After Delivery the Revenue has to be recognised 100%.
3) The due now goes into A/R cycle .The Customer is billed along with the IS-CCS Billing for net due every month.
4) Customer should be able to pay off their prinicple any time and hence reduce the interest payment .
I am not even able to figure out if we built a custom function how do we integrate it.

  • Retail: IS-Retail sytem and POS related Query in SAP Testing

    Hi Experts,
    I am expecting clear answer for my query.I am going to sit in SAP Testing project so i just want to know the t-codes which we use to send the O/B IDOCs to POS and the I/B IDOCs from POS to SAP R/3 system.What's the t-code i have to use if i didnt send my IDOCs to POS(where i have to monitor the POS O/B?i want t-code).What's the t-code i have to use if i am not able to get the IDOC or Data from POS to my R/3 system.(where i have to monitor the POS I/B? expecting t-code).I want complete process from R/3 to POS and from POS to R/3.I just want to know what t-code do we use in SAP Testing project as an SAP IS-Retail Functional consultant with SD.Hope for reply from SAP experts and hope for clear and step by step t-codes and procedure from experts.Thanks in Advance.
    Regards
    Sandhya

    Hi
    1) ECC to POS : a) WDBM_HPR tcode is use to trigger idoc for assortment list
    b) WPMA tcode is used for triggering idocs for MC based promotion,Merchandise Hirarchacy & mixmatch discounts.
    2) POS to SAP R/3 : data will pass through XI. POS Tlog files will be used by XI to process data into SAP.
    WPUUMS & WPUTAB Idocs will be used to send data to R/3.
    we can check in R/3 by using Tcode WPER for the creation of billing documents & Article documents.
    Error handling :
    1) check in weo5 & in XI monitoring for outbound idocs.
    2) check in we05 inbound & in XI for inbound monitoring.

    Dear Sandhya,
    SAP IS Retail Consultant role in ongoing (Post Go-live) support varies from Level 1 to Level 3 as well as client to client.
    Mutually agreed tasks are part of Statement of Works (SOW) reflects in Contract / Agreement. So, you can refer SOW to know complete role.
    In mean while, are you supporting Indian Client or Foreign Client?
    In general, Support consultant should carry out following tasks;
    (a) Trouble shooting in master data and transactional errors
    (b) Training
    (c) Interaction with team on proactive basis
    (d) Facilitating to get MIS Reports
    (e) Preparing FS document for Inhouse reports

  • Is retail-SD Scope

    Hi,
    I want to know how SD Consultant will play a role in IS Retail Project.
    My basic understanding,the role SD consultant is limited when it comes to industry specific Retail .
    Enterprise Structure
    Site-Here sites (individual store) is treated as Plant         
    Master Data
    Article Master-Instead of material master
    Pricing-I could see mark up pricing,some percentage.
    I am very much confused suppose if a SD consultant happens to work in Is Retail project,what all he has to know.
    His Basic SD knowledge is sufficient? or Else he should take any extra effort to learn new things relevant to Is Retail,if so what are the topics to be covered.
    Please clarify me..

    Hi Pradeep,
    As an SD/MM consultant with 9+ years experience with IS-Retail projects, I would first recommend you to go through the IS Retail scenarios and check for the processes that you'd possibly have to cover; Below is the link to the IS-R scenario map, I've not taken the latest as I could not make it work However, the solution scope has not really changed in years;
    SAP Retail BP V1.605 - Scenario Map
    It is quite difficult to recommend a specific retail functional area but I see the following list of retail SD (or SD related) areas as a must when working on an IS-R project;
    Concept of Assortment & Listing (as listing is usually required to sell article in stores)
    Store Connectivity / POS Interface
    Retail Price Calculation
    Promotions & Bonus Buys, Seasons
    Article Hierarchy (do not confuse with Merch.Cat.Hierarchy)
    Understand Article Master Data (single/generic+variant/sales set/pre-pack)  & Site Master Data structure
    However, I'm sure that experience of other consultants might be completely different and the above list much shorter.. or much longer!
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,
    Tomas

  • SAP PRICAT functionality

    Hi Experts
    We are looking to get details on SAP PRICAT functionality. We are currently working on this functionality for a Price Catalogue interface for one of our client.
    Following is the outcome of exploration we have done till now:
    -          This interface is not a mere price transfer, but huge data related to taxes, prices, material characteristic will have to be send.

    Hi all,
    even if this post is old, I recommend you to use the SAP Help portal. There you can find useful information about SAP Archivelink.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc70sp02/helpdata/en/5e/566039b85f9443e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

    Hi Sudeep
    As we are using SAP Retail for furniture sale, I can only tell abt Retail
    The SAP Retail Store component offers a web-based user interface that is tailored to the requirements of stores.
    It makes the store-related retail functions available to all your store associates in a form that is easy to use and understand.
    The interface combines the intuitive guidance of a web browser with the powerful transactions of the R/3 system trimmed to the needs of the stores. As a result, even part-time staff with little training can quickly start working with the system.

  • Report of full vendor addresses

    Is there a standard report that pulls the full vendor address?  I checked MKVZ and you can get some of the address but I can't find anything that contains the fields in the ADRC table (things like street 1, 2, 4 or 5 and so forth.)
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    that question should have been opened in
    As far as i know there is no direct report for such. Especially for the vendor
    You will need to write your own report.
    At this stage, either you use direct access to LFA1 (or function module LFA1_READ_SINGLE) and a proper reading of  the corresponding address with function module like ADDR_GET_COMPLETE
    alternatively, dependign on your release you may think about using WY_LFA1_ARRAY_READ. This is a retail function but it should make the trick !
    Best regards

    i think u can't modify the xml file using SAX
    SAX is only for reading XML
    for any modifications in xml file u have to use DOM parser....
    correct me if i m wrong....

  • Merchandise Distribution (WF10) Modifications Anyone?

    Hi everyone,
    As the subject suggests, i'm trying to figure out if anyone has been involved in or has modifiied WF10?
    Below i've highlighted 3 areas we want to improve, but please let me know of any changes you've made.
    We've been using Merchandise Distribution now for over 12 months and find the standard functionality just isn't delivering expected results as it's fairly limited / under developed compared with most Retail functionality.
    1)  Not being able to select input STO document types into the collective process, thus generating a distinct output collective document type.  (Input type driving output type)
      -  At our organisation we've a number of document types to segregate demand types (Allocation, Replen, Range review etc), the standard solution just groups them together into a single collective, therefore loose this segregation at out DC where they provide value added services (special labelling / packing etc).
      -  Ideally we would want to do multiple runs of WF10 for each DC to generate a Collective By Doc Type.  Has anyone done this?
    2)  The Delivery Due Date on the collective is not related to the STO Delivery Due Date, it's separately calculated at the DC level.
      -  If we happen to create an STO with an allocation with a due date of a months time (pre ordering for a range review maybe), then the collective is generated with the standard lead time, which then requires manually changing, if we don't it gets closed far too early in relation to the STO's.
      -  Also we exclude the weekends from out store level due date calculation when ordering internal from the DC, collectives don't have any awareness of this or config available, so the two documents are always out of sync.
      -  Ideally we would want this to be based upon the STO(s) Net of the lead time between the DC and Store, to allow for the inventory to be processed prior to the store requiring it.
    3)  There is no real way to group STO's by delivery due dates, to create a Collective that has "clean" STO due dates contained within.  You can select the procurement period and schedule line interval etc, but this doesn't group STO's into collective.  We could run WF10 many many times going into the future for individual days, but this doesn't sounds viable really and even still wouldn't produce the right result.
      - We basically find we group all sorts of stuff together, all of which actually need delivering on different days, which in our fairly complex and flexible supply chain just doesn't work well.
      -  Ideally it would be a single collective run(by doc type), which grouped STO's and split collectives by the STO due dates
    Any thoughts or suggestions?
    Many thanks,
    Dave

    Hi Prabhu,
    Thats been most helpful indeed, thank you!
    We met with SAP today and discussed, they recommended that for the selection by document type would need to be a modification and recommended that they should do this as a customer development, rather than develop in-house.  In truth i think this is the best approach due to ongoing support.
    I would be really interested to find out a little more, as there are so few organisations using WF10 and it's a fairly underdeveloped area of SAP retail.
    Two things i'd be particularly interested in is:
    1)  Do you have anymore information on the other changes you said were similar to what i mentioned (i'm assuming splitting by due date and due date calculation changes?)?
    2)  If possible would you be able to share with me on email which organisation it is that had these change made, as our organisation would be keen to speak with them on this. I know this isn't always possible for a number of reasons. If this is ok let me know and i'll send you my email address.
    Kind regards,
    Dave

  • Reg. Distribution profile during MM01

    Dear Exports
    During material creation, in distribution profile field I gave 001 then the following error occured.
    Error determining plant distribution profile for plant 1001
    Message no. W#442
    Diagnosis
    An error occurred determining the plant distribution profile for plant 1001.
    Diagnosis
    Plant 1001 does not exist.
    No distribution profile has been specified for plant 1001 in plant master data.
    The distribution profile specified for plant 1001 in plant master data is not defined in Customizing.
    Procedure
    Check the plant master data for plant 1001.
    Check the Customizing settings for the plant distribution profiles.
    Pls help me giving steps to solves the problem.
    Thanks

    Thank you so much for your response.  Sorry, I should have mentioned that we are not using the Retail functionality.  We are trying to use this field for reporting purposes and have been unsuccessful in getting even the defaul distribution profile to work.  When trying to select this in MM02, we get the following error:
    Error determining plant distribution profile for plant XXXX
    Message no. W#442
    However, I did follow what you said.  SAP gave me a lot of warnings that we are not setup as a retail system, but I went ahead and assigend the Default 001 to the plant in use.  This did work, but I'm wondering if this is the best route.'
    Thanks again for all of your information, and if you have a more efficient option, please let me know.
    Thanks!

  • Should we use MM01 or MM41 single articles

    Hello,
    I have the following dilemma. My client is a group of companies, some sell retail fashion products, others sell electronics products. For the latter or in general terms for all non-retail articles (e.g. services), should we use MM01 or should we use MM41 and ATTYP = '00' (i.e. single article materials)?
    We are on ECC 6.0 and it seems to me that we can use both (I think in older versions, transaction MM01 could not be used). I just want to know if one of those is recommended by SAP?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sotiris Chantzis

    Hi Sotoris,
    please be aware that - as far as I know - materials created with MM01 cannot be processed with MM42/MM43 and cannot be used in special Retail-functionality such as allocation table. Therefore I would recommend MM41 to create single articles if you need Retail-functionality.
    I'm not sure if it would be a good idea to keep retail articles (maintained via MM41/42) AND materials (maintained via MM01/MM02).
    Regards
    Tobias

  • Is it possible to create a Material Group Hierarchy in SAP ECC?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a Material Group Hierarchy (not a Product Hierarchy) in SAP ECC.
    I've read some discussions about this theme:
    MM Material group hierarchy ?
    but still I'm sure if it is possible to create a Material Group Hierarchy  in SAP ECC or if it is only an IS Retail functionality.
    Thanks in advance,
