Serial Number Creation Speed Issue

Hi all,
I have GRPO that constantly (Weekly) need to be entered into SBO with Serial Number Items with Qty of, sometimes, over 100000 Numbers. The posting of this GRPO takes a very long time, hours, but what is worse, no one can do any work in SBO since the entire system is "Locked" or is very very very slow.
Does anyone have any suggestion or solution that they can offer?
Thanks

Hi Peter,
Yes, we are using the Automatically generated Serial Numbers and they are Sequential.
Currently...
1. Create the Purchase Order (without Serial Numbers)
2. Create GRPO when Stock is Recieved. The Serial Number Creation Screen opens. We generate the Serial Numbers with the Automatic Function. This does not take a very loooooong time (+- 10mins). We Save it as a Draft.
3. At the end of the day when everyone is of the system, 5pm, we open the Draft and Post the GRPO. This can take a loooooonnng time, HOURS! This runs overnight on a Quad Dual Core (8 processors) but only one processes this as per Task Manager -> Performance Monitor.
We need a better solution.

Serial Number creation in SD

Hi all,
I am facing the issues in SAP SD regarding the serial number.
The scenario is my client wants the serial number to be created at the time of sales order itself.
I assigned the serial number profile into the material master.
In sales order i selected the material and created the serial number automatically.When i am saving the sales order it throws an error like "Number range does not exist for Equipment"..**
I checked in the t.code OIS2 - ser.profile- 0002, i selected and given the priority of serial number to SDCC (03) rest all are 02 only.Equipment requirement is "01" without Eq Re selected.
Suggest me if you have idea on settings related to serial number creation in sales order. My project also involves PP and PM module but they are not creating Serial number.
I checked in the t.code OIEN for number ranges groups, it shows the it show number range groups and equipment. I am not familiar with this equipment so i left it.

Serial number creation at the time of GI

Dear Experts,
I want to create sreial number and equipment number simultaneously at the time of GI
please hel m out with customization settings.
Thanks
Warm regards
Rahul

Using existing serial number is not giving me perfect solution.....
there is no validation of matching serial number which has been created before for that material
e.g.
if i am having one line item with quatity:10
At GR 10 serial numbers will be generated.
at GI he can assign any serial number to any material which is not desirable in my case.
Please let me know can we stop serial number creation at the time of GR?????
I want it should create only at the time of GI
Thanks
Rahul

Serial Number creation for a material with stock type

Hi,
I am not able to create the serial number for a material which should have valuation type, plant and storage location using the function module ITOB_SERIALNO_CREATE_SINGLE.
There is no export or changing parametre for this function module for Valuation type(EQBS-LBBSA),
Plant(EQBS-B_WERK) and
Storage Location(EQBS-B_LAGER)
Can any one suggest me the BAPI or function module to create a serial number for a material with valudation type, plant and storage location rather tan going for BDC to transaction code IQ01.
(Note: We can create the serial number with valuation type manually using the transaction code "IQ01" for agiven material.)
For suitable answers would be rewarded.
Regards
Badari

I have the solution below.
- Don't change Serial no. profile
- Goods issue all stock with mvt 201 or 261 into temporary cost object and note your text.
- Change Serial no. profile in material master
- Goods receipt all stock (You may ref. material doc.) and you need to input serial number for all materials.
Hope this solution can help you.

Serial number creation restriction

I am creating serial number for finished goods in production order. once goods receipt is done. Quality inspection will occur. i want to restrict the creation of new serial number in Quality inspection and delivery. how it can be done

Configure serial number profile based on your requirements. Make it optional for goods movements as you want to receive without serial number and use 03 usage for QMSL .

Acrobat X Pro - serial number and languages issue

Hello!
My OS is in English but I'm used to use the Adobe suite in French, so I bought the french version.
While installing all was OK, the serial number worked.
Illustrator, Indesign and Photoshop work perfectly.
But when I try to launch Acrobat, it askes me for the serial number. It somehow automatically detects North America while I'm in Europe. And my serial number doesn't work (This serial number is not valid for your product).
I tryed to change the system language to French and Acrobat worked correctly without asking for the serial.
Back to English, it asks me for the serial...
Does anybody have an idea of how to solve issue?? I really hate having my OS in French...
Thanks!
Larissa

I got the answer somwhere else, so I copy here the link if it may be helpfull for someone: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110522014935224

Validation on serial number in goods issue

hi all,

Hi,
You can use user exits EXIT_SAPLMBMB_001.
This exit is called in update task when saving Material document.
Also please check these user exits available (transaction SMOD).
MBCF0002
MBCF0005
MBCF0006
MBCF0007

Serial number creation

Hi
I want to create serial number for final product and its 2 sub assemblies in SAP after quality inspection.
And these 3 parts should have a link for traceability.
Is this possible In standard.
Janardhanan

Thanks for your reply, your suggestion is almost to my requirement.
I created a serial number through IQ01 for final product and sub assemblies and assigned sub assemblies serial numbers to final product in IQ02.
Only thing is after assigning everything in IQ02, sub assembly serial numbers are not visible in structure tab,
Please let me know if any solution to display sub-assembly serial numbers also in struture tab.
Also while while creating a serial number, system is creating a equipment number parallely, it should not happen, any idea for this??
Please advice..

Serial number creation at the completion of production order

I am trying to create a production order and the finished goods is serialized. However, when I complete the production order it never asks me for a serial number for the finished goods. I have to go to registered products screen and manually create the serial number. I am assuming there is a way to minimize the number of step I have to use during the production process to create a serial number.
Any Ideas?
Thank you
Chintan

Hi Chintan,
i believe that serial numbers are not supported in production orders.
Serial numbers are available on delivering and receiving goods

Material serial number creation

Hello,
I have a scenario in setting up serial number for material. I am presently working on data migration from legacy system to SAP. Materials in legacy system has serial numbers assigned to it. I am migrating service contracts with service materials which should have equipments details in the technical objects details
i wanted to know how to create serial no.s for the saleable materials in the contract with status ECUS ( equipment at customer).
When i create serials numbers the material is in stock under a plant. But this should not be the case since the equipment is already at the customer .
Please suggest a suitable solution for doing the same.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Kiran.R.S

Hi,
From IE02 - Edit, Special serial number functions, Manual transaction.
This will allow you to move the status on depending on the status that your currently at.
Hope that's a start!

Trying to activate a trial version PSE12, inserted the serial number that was issued, but pop-up continues to ask for activation. What do I do?

Trial version PSE12 continually asks for serial number but does not complete the action when serial number is entered. Is there a work around?

Is the serial number being accepted as valid, and it seems to be working, but then later you get a popup asking for activation, again, or is the serial number not being accepted as valid, initially?
In other words is there a problem with the serial number or is there a problem with the licensing mechanism on the computer?

COMPUTER CRASHED, REINSTALLED; NOW THE SERIAL NUMBER I WAS ISSUED DOES NOT WORK

THE SERIAL NUMBER AND THE REDEMPTION CODE SHOW TO BE INVALID. I KNOW I REGISTERED AND RECEIVED A SERIAL NUMBER; HOWEVER MY ACCOUNT DOES NOT SHOW THAT I PURCHASED PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 11. HOW DO I RE-ACTIVATE THE SOFTWARE.

Details. OS, Product?
