Semi finish impact

Hi
Semi finish is at Standard Price and issue on finish material Process order at standard price.
At month end semi finish variance settled.
How I can charge the semi finish variance on finish Process order.
regards

Hi Sapian IB
There are two concepts...
Cost Roll up and Variance Roll up.
For the cost to be rolleup to the next level, you have to opt the check box in the properties of "Cost Components"
For Variance Roll up, it is possible only if you are using Material Ledger (CO-ML). If you are using only CO-Product Costing with out ML active, then the variance on the semi-finished products will go to Price Difference account only..It can't be rolled-up

MAP for Finished and Semi Finished goods

Dear Friends,
Please let me know;
1. If Finished and Semi finsihed goods are maintained with price indicator 'S' and all are inhouse production then SAP updata moving average price or these material or not ?
2. If SAP updata MAP for finished and semi-finished, later can we change map manually or not ? if yes How ?
3. Is there any way to stop updata of map by sap in case of finsihed and semifinished goods.
Actually according to my product costing variant, I dont need any price in map of FG and SFG. Kindly give me your expert openion on this issue.
Thanks
Ravi

Hi
1. If you maintain price control S for inhouse produced finished product also, system updates moving average price with resepect stock and value of production (may be period wise production cost may be varying). But this is statistical.
2. You can change price control from S to V if you require. You need to change first in material type and then change in material master.
3. If the value is getting updated also it will have no impact. In case of product cost variant also it will get updated.
Thanks

Moving average price for semi finished products

Hi
Could anyone light on this issue,
Our client maintain moving average price for the semi finished material, need clarification on below points
1) What is the advantages and disadvantages due moving average price,
2) Which price in the material master after the production order settlement,
3) Is there any impact of this on WIP calcaultions
Thanks in advance
Mohan M

Hi
there are no advantages of it, ONLY Dis Advantages!!!
That will ruin your inventory valuation forever.. Consider the eg below if your price control is V
1. Your moving price in mat master is 100 USD
2. You Mfr on Jan 1 @ Actual cost = 110 in Prod order and Qty = 1.
Upon GR, GR will happen @ 100 and at period end if Qty is lying in stock, 10 variance will also be inventorized
BUT, now consider this
1. 1. Your moving price in mat master is 100 USD
2. You Mfr on Jan 1 @ Actual cost = 110 in Prod order and Qty = 1.
Upon GR, GR will happen @ 100 and variance lying is 10 in prod order
3. You Mfr on Jan 10 @ Actual cost = 110 in Prod order and Qty = 1.
Upon GR, GR will happen @ 100 and variance lying is 10 in prod order
4. On jan 15, you consume Qty 1 and qty lying in stock is 1
5. In period end, when you do settlement, following will happen
a. For prod order 1: Qty Mfd 1 and Qty lying in stock 1 - Result: variance 10 will be inventorized.
Mvg Avg price will shoot upto 110
b. For prod order 2: Qty Mfd 1 and Qty lying in stock 1 - Result: variance 10 will be inventorized.
Mvg Avg price (MAP) will shoot upto 120
System wont check whether the qty lying in stock pertains to prod order 1 or 2... It will simply check if the Qty of prod order matches with qty lying in stock. hence, it will keep on inventorizing variance in this case.... and your MAP will touch the sky

Auto GR/IR for Semi Finished goods in Work in Progress stage.

Dear All,
What are account postings going to happen while issuing semi finished goods from from one process to other process by using Auto GR/IR.
Regards,
Venkat.

Dear sapper2000,
Work in progress:If my understanding is correct,then any unfinished product can be said as work in progress.
Work in process or progress are partially completed goods, parts, or subassemblies that are no longer part of the raw
materials inventory and not yet part of the finished products inventory.Check this link to explore more on this topic,

Serial Number Error in YMFBF confirmation for semi-finished material.

Dear Experts,
We are having repetitive manufacturing scenario,while confirming the Semi-finished material ( X) in YMFBF Screen, after POST with Correction and Saving the Confirmation. Error Applied....
"Only the 0 serial numbers entered instead of 1.
Message no. IO304
Diagnosis
There is a serial number obligation, so the number of serial numbers must equal the number of serial numbers in the material document.
You can post the operation only if you entered the correct number of serial numbers previously.
System Response
Depending on the context in which the error arises, the system continues processing, or the required function cannot be performed.
Procedure
You have the following options, for example:
Check that the serial numbers are entered fully.
If necessary, display an error log.
If necessary, contact your system administrator.
Please give some solution for this,
Thanks,

Goods Receipt for a semi finished

Hi all,
How can i make a goods receipt for all the line items in a semi finished / non valuated material.
ie. I raise a purchase order for a header material and i would like to make Goods receipt for the Line items (BOM) how to go about.
Regards
Ragu

Hi
We have a similar scenario where a finished product is dismantled to several lower level sub-assemblies. After dismantling, the components are grouped and delivered. The dismantling is not in the order in which it was originally manufactured. The dismantled group has no material code in the system. Therefore, a new BOM is created.
How to carryout the valuation for this new BOM component.
The price control setting is V or Moving avg price in the material master.
After GR is done for the FG production order, the system posts the components into stock. The system posts the material + conversion cost into inventory.
When u dismantle u can only bring the material price back into stock. How to apportion the conversion cost also in this case.
Kindly suggest, if you have handled similar scenario.

Automatic creation of purchase requisition for semi-finished product HALB

Hi Gurus,
We want the MRP to generate automatically a purchase requisition, instead of a planned order, for a semi-finished product. Of course, we still want to be able to convert it to a planned order.
thanks
Jean-Francois Millaire

Hi Jean-Francois Millaire,
You want a purchase requisition after MRP run & you should also able to convert that purchase requisition to planned order,If i understood correctly, hope this is your requirement
First one is possible -in MD01/MD02 maintain create purchase requisition as "1"
Second is not possible,its not possibel to conver a PR(purchase requisition to Planned order where as vice versa is possible
confirm my understanding,pls revert if you differ

Valuated Sales Order stock for Semi-Finished Products

Dear Gurus,
One of my client faced the issue that the semi-finished products is valuated-sales order. We are in Mill Industries, downstream (steel processing). The situation is:
1. We use configuration material for both finished and semi-finished products. Both are valuated at standard costs with valuated sales order stock.
2. Once the sales order is created, the cost estimates are created for both Finished, and semi-finished products.
3. The production orders is created for the semi-finished products. During production, several semi-fg and fg can be manufactured at the same time. We are using the co-products feature to cover that.
4. During the goods receipt of semi-finished products, instead of using the standard costs in sales order cost estimate, it use the planned costs in production orders which against our design.
I tried to use the user exit COPC002 and influence the standard costs. But it seems that the routine is not called for semi-fg at all. Anyone has any light on this?
Regards,

Hi
I think you are talking about Special Stock "E"...ie) Sale Order Stock...
If my understanding is correct then,
If you go and see the Table T156....For the
Movement Type: 101,
Special stock Indicator : E,
Qty. Updation Checked,
Val. Updation Checked,
Movement Indicator : Against PO,
Consumption Indicator: Sales Order Stock.....combination....the transaction Event Key....GBB only has been Assigned....these settings you cannot change...
This linkage you can view in OLMW-----> Account Determination -
> Acc. Determination W/O Wizard -
>Account Grouping....also
Reward if useful

MIC's of finished product should get transferred to Semi-finished product

Hi all,
I have the following requirement
Based on the Customer requirement, sales order will be created. Two line items will be created in the sales order.
First item: 100kg
Second item: 5 kg (this will be the sample to be sent to the customer for approval)
first item and second item will have different material codes.
Now the process order will be created,released and confirmed. 04 inspection type will be activated for the material.
The MIC's of the finished product ( A) should get transferred to the semi-finished product (A1)
For X customer the MIC's for finished product (A) is a1, a2 and a3 and same should get transferred to semi finished product (A1 )
For Y customer the MIC's for finished product (B) is b1, b2 and b3 and same should get transferred to semi finished product (A1 )
The material code for the finished product will be different, but the semi-finished product (A1) will be same always.
When ever inspection lot gets generated the MIC's of the finished material should get transferred to semi finished product
Kindly provide your valuable inputs to address this scenario
Regards
Hari

I think I understand what you are attempting to do. The bottom line is that you are trying to use one material number to serve as the "sample material" for all your products. Lets call the sample material mrtrl# 9000122.
You have a make to order process so you first create a process order for the product and inspect it according to the customer's requirements. You make the UD.
Now when you make product A, you want those characteristic MIC values to copy to the sample material 9000122 inspection lot which is created from a separate process order using product A as the raw material.
When you make product B, you want those MIC charcteristic values to copy to the same sample material 9000122 to an inspection lot created from a separate process order using product B as the raw material.
I am guessing the intent is to keep the batch number the same between the FERT product batch number and the sample material.
I would like to suggest to you two other alternatives which I'm not sure will work for your design but I think it is worth a try and might save some work.
1) Have you looked at setting up your sample product as a by-product of the first process order? You can confirm the finished qty and the sample qty from the same original process order. This will then create your two 04 inspection lots. You would recrod results on the first primary product. Then enter results recording and I think you'll be able to have that set up to copy over the resutls from the primary product. If you can't with the standard SAP, I beleive you'll find the ability in copy inspection results to add your own custom FM that would do the copy for you that you are looking for.
Of course the inspection plan for the by-product sample will have to have all the characteristics in the plan that could ever be expected from any primary product using this process.
2) The other possibility would be to just have the person making the UD on the primary inspection products inspection lot, to post a sample qty "to other quantity". They would always of course post to the sample material. If the characteristics in the lot match up to general characteristics in the batch class for the sample, the resutls will be transferred to the batch. Report your sample reuslts from the batch record and the specs from the inspection lot in the COA.

Finished Goods BOM Semi finished goods costs

Dears
We have Product Costing by order where we have multi level BOM with Phantom Assembly. When we run the costing CK11N we unable to see the cost break at semi finished goods level rather we can only see the cost details by raw material level. We think something wrong with the BOM but unable to find out the reason. Can some one help us in this regard
Thanks

Hi Ajay,
I need your help, in the CO03 the production order the GR shows (finished goods) negative value? will it be correct or anything else , i want to confirm to my client.
one more year end activity,while KKAO we run successfully, but the accounting entry is not generated?will generate accounting entry or not .please explain us. I have posted in forum but not got the correct answer.

Raw material to semi finished

There is a client requirement that they purchase a material as a raw material.
After some time they will go for subcontracting of this item. In that case material type will be Semi finished.
There may be N no of such materials.
How will I solve this problem.
Regrads & thanks
-Bansal

Hi,
To add to Lekhram's good advice.
If the material that has been subcontracted is different in any way to the material before this process then they should be different material master records.
The material type is not as important as you would think, as long as the correct views are available, the correct combination of internal and external POs have been set and the correct valuation classes are on the accounting view then it shouldn't matter too much about which material type is used. But RAW for the component material and HALB for the finished item would be sensible.
But in a fully correct process you would raise the subcontract PO for the finished item and send your raw material to the subcontractor and then receive back the finished item (MIGO). (Using ME2o or similar to manage the sending of the raw material to the vendor)

Extending the Material from FG Material to Semi Finished good.

Dear All,
I am doing the STO (INTRA COMPANY) from plant 1 to Plant 2 for FG
While receiving the material in plant 2, I have to take as Semi finished good (SFG).
Is it possible? Bcz the Material Type is FG in Plant 1, so we can't change Valuation class of the Material while extending in Plant as SFG. How can I achieve this with same Material code?
While selling the same Material from Plant 2, I will add some part and I will it as a FG.
Please guide me.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramu

Hi Sudhir,
Thanks for your reply.
But my requirement is in Plant the Material type should be FERT(FG) and while extending the same material in Plant 2, the Material Type sholud change to HALB(Semi finished).
As per ur answer I can change the Material Type for the Material in bith the Plants.
Plz guide me.
Thanks & Regards,

Creating a production order for a semi finished product

Hi
I am having a multi level bom scenario over here.
one of the bom components of the header material is a semi finished product.
I am using the planing stratagy 40 for that material.
in standard sap when i create a production order for header material. the requirement gets transerd to all the components. if the components are not available then only a requirement is placed. when i run MRP that requirement gets converted in to a planned order. which converts in to a purchase req or a production order,
well for my semi finished product. its a Work in process item. there wont be any stock for that item in the storage location any time.
what my requirement is. when i create a production order for my finished product it should automatically create a production order for the semi finished product.
is this possible with some configuration settings.

Dear Deepu,
for ur requirement u need to maintain MRP type PD for FERT material and also for ur HALB.
If u run MRP only, it will create planned order for FERT and for all its dependent requirement(for PD).
If u create order manually for FERT material then it will not create order for HALB material, u need to create manualy for this also.

Batch at semi finish level or bulk material

My client is manufacturing toothpaste, the scenario is, they have 5 products with multiple change overs they manufacture different batches of tooth paste than store them in a storage tank. the batch management could be difficult as the are not storing the different batches seperately they are storing it in a same storage tank and then they pack it. they have strict standards to be followed and no bom change occure during manufacturing.
My questions are,
1. if i use batch on semifinish level obviously it can not bifercate them as the are storing it on an storage tank, could i treet semi finish as bulk material with out any batch number?
2. they are asking for tracebility as welll how this could be possible when the are mixing it by them self in a storage tank?
Kindly reply with ideas also points are guranted...........

Serial number status of semi finished material.

Hi Gurus,
I have a serialized finished product.
I have a serialized semi finished material as a component of that finished product.
After issuing the semifinished to the production order of the finished product, the serial number status of the semifinished item becomes AVL.
I dont want the semifinished serial number to be reused once it is issued to a production order and the finished material from that production order is delivered .
Help me in acheiving this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Gowrisankar.p

Hi Gowri Shankar,
You should maintain a User Status Profile for the Serial Number Profile, (Through Equipment Category).
Once the Semi finished Material with a particular Serial Number is Issued for a production order. The status should change to Say " Used". Then this Serial Number cannot be assigned again to a new Semifinished Goods.
User Status profile should be defined in transaction BS02.
Thanks And Regards,
Balasubramanian.
