  • Reg: Alphanumeric serial number assignment for material

    Hi all,
             I am able to generate the serial number numerically material wise using IQ01 t code. But my client requirement is alphanumeric serial numbers. Is it possible in standard SAP. Even though some threads are there regarding this issue, i am not able to understand clearly. Please guide me with a detailed explanation.
    Regards,
    Krishna Chandra

    Hello,
    Serial numbers can be auto generated or created manually; the length of single number is limited to 18
    characters. SAP supports both numeric and alphanumeric serial numbers. Serial number master record
    can be created directly prior to business transaction, this would appropriate to have serial numbers already
    in system so these can be assigned during business process. Serial numbers can be created individually
    (IQ01) or several at the time (IQ04), depending on transaction chosen.
    Serial number masters contents following information
    ->Status information: System status of gives idea about current status and availability of serial
    number. User status also used for precise control over serial number movement.
    -> Stock information: This shows the plant and storage location of material, also the stock type of
    material like unrestricted, quality or blocked stock.
    -> Serial number history: The history tells about the past business process with serial number.
    Serial numbers are also categorized on broader level like Machine, Customer equipment etc. These categories mainly serve the reporting purpose.
    Maintain all the mandatory information and the issue should be solved

  • Serial numbers assigned to booked stock but irrelevant at goods issue point

    Can anyone help me get a better understanding of material serial numbers?
    I am exploring this area  using SAP standard configuration:
    i)     I have created a material that that has assigned to it serial number profile 0001 which includes:
    a.     SDAU     Serial numbers in SD order 01 (No)
    b.     SDCC     Completeness check for delivery 03 (Mandatory)
    c.     SDLS     Maintain delivery 02 (Optional)
    ii)     I have used MIGO to place 2 items in stock (GR 561 u2013 initial stock balance) and as expected the serial number tab opened up and I assigned 2 unique serial numbers to each of my pieces of stock: Serial_Test_1 & Serial_Test_2
    iii)     I then created a sales order (OR) for one item and again as expected, the item was scheduled for immediate delivery from stock without reference to the relevant serial number
    iv)     The problem was that I then managed to create a delivery and pick it without being prompted for a serial number (mandatory completeness check?)
    v)     I then went back into the delivery and assigned a serial number via Item u2013 Serial Numbers but it let me input and serial number that wasnu2019t associated with any item I had in stock (e.g.  Serial_Test_3) which I then PGIu2019d!
    vi)     Going back to my stock overview, I now only had 1 item (good) but both serial numbers were present (bad .. I think)?
    Am I missing something here? Is there a prerequisite action I must take to get the system to insist on a particular stock item to be specified before it can be issued and that the stock overview will only show serial numbers for items that are in stock? My system at present appears corrupt to me as I only have one item in stock but 2 serial number?
    Any help or insight much appreciated.

    Hi,
    You posted qty 2 with serial number's
    Now you have stock of 2 qty with serial number
    when you do delivery, you have to assign serial number which is already in stock.then it will show status properly
    Remain qty 1 and 1 serail number.

  • How to get the serial Numbers issued for an STO

    Hi,
    I created my own STO and mapped a serialised material for the same using transaction. I increased the stock by issuing serial numbers. The /SYCLO/MM_DOPURCHASEORDER_GET BAPI returns the PO header, item and longtext details. I want the serial numbers which are issued to the STO and the list of serial numbers for which the receipts has been done.
    I want to know how to get the serial numbers which are issued to the STO throught the standard function module. I want only the issued serial numbers not the one for which the receipts has been done.
    I tried using the standard BAPI, "BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL1" to get the serial number collection. But the FM is not returning the issued serial number as well as the list of serial numbers for which the receipts has been done. It is returning only the PO history in which the list of document number are present.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Mohan.

    Hi,
    Using the transaction "MB1C" and movement type "561", I filled the required details such as Material Number, Quantity, Storage Location and Batch. After filling all these details, when I press enter, it will ask for me to enter the serial numbers equal to the quantity specified. I entered the serial numbers by selecting the available serial numbers for that particular material by pressing F4 help.
    Please let me know if you need any more inputs in this regards.
    Thanks,
    Mohan.

  • Use of space as a character in Serial Numbers assignment during MIGO.

    Hi Gurus,
    Can any one suggest me if it is possible to have space as a character in the serial numbers?
    My client has a space or two in the old serial numbers and they do not want to change the way the serial numbers are numbered in the SAP system.
    Please advice if there is any way to do this.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Two serial numbers assigned to one Handling Unit???

    Hi All,
    I've a handling Unit HU 1000XXXXXX - correct in SAP with XYZ material with a serial number. But also another unit ABC has a different serial number  also in some way tied to Handling unit 1000XXXXXX. This is an MTO for a sales order. Not able to understand how the other serial number is also assigned to the same HU.
    Please suggest me to identify the root cause behind this.

  • External numbering assignment for Handling Unit

    We are activating HUM in our facilities. We currently assign an alphanumeric number to our SU's and when we turn on HUM and try to pack the SU with the alphanumeric number into a HU, the validation routine in the function check_number fails, the SU number is not in the correct range. How can we get past this validation and continue to use the alphanumeric SU tags within HUM

  • Serial Numbers for Production Orders

    Hi All
    Can anyone tell me the table in which the serial numbers are stored for the production orders?  I have created a production order and have assigned serial numbvers to it.  Now I want to extract these serial numbers from the table.
    Thanks in advance.
    Tom

    Hello Jack,
    In table SER05, the list of serial number details can be obtained.key the order noin ser05 table, get field OBJKNR, then pass this OBJKNR in table OBJK .
    Some useful table for serial numbers
    SER00 Generic table for serial numbers
    SER01 Serial numbers assigned to a delivery
    SER02 Serial numbers assigned to a guarentee
    SER03 Serial numbers assigned to a material document
    SER04 Serial numbers assigned to an inspection lot
    SER05 Serial numbers for a production order
    SER06 Serial numbers for Handling Units
    SER07 Serial numbers for Stocktaking
    SER08 serial numbers for Orders (SD)
    The assignment of serial numbers to a production order can be done either via transaction CO02 or at the latest when the GR from Production is made.
    I hope that this information clarifies the issue.

  • Where are the serial numbers?

    I just bought the family pack of Snow Leopard, and I'm a little confused why I did. There aren't any serial numbers. For all I can tell, I could have installed this on 100 computers. Is there some serial number built into the DVD so they are keeping track of where these get installed? Otherwise I feel like I got scammed out of $20, and could have just bought the $30 edition...

    It's the Apple way. And allot of us like that.
    When I upgrade to 10.6 I don't need to pull out my 10.0,10.1,10.2,10.3,10.4 and 10.5 serial numbers.
    Also if I'm in a pinch and I need to reinstall on the road I don't need to worry about finding past serial numbers in order to install.
    I can't begin to try and remember where all my serial numbers are for Windows. As a matter of fact I've lost so many **** install disks its wrong. What's worse is that when I need a disk for a particular model I can't find it. And an HP disk wont reinstall onto a Dell. This has caused me way too much frustration in the past.
    With Apple, I buy the disk, Make a copy onto my hard drive and I always have a copy around if one fails. If I loose the one for my laptop the same one will restore my desktop.
    So while there are people who will rip off Apple the $20 it saves everyone else added aggravation when the rare circumstance arises that mandate an reinstall.
    And for that *Thank you Apple!*

  • Manual Inspection Lot creation using Serial Numbers

    Hi,
    My requirement is to create inspection Lot for Serialized material manually.There is no trigger like Goods Receipt or Issue. I want to assign Serial number for the inspection lot to record the results. When I check the transaction QA01, I can only create it at Material level. Is there any standard way I can achieve this requirement?
    I assigned the Serialized Profile and checked the check box " Serial Number Management Possible" in QM view of material master. Thanks.

    Hi Tim,
    There is a better way of capturing the Serial Numbers for each result recording by using the Inspection Point in the Inspection Plan.
    You may create New Inspection Point in the configuration for the Serial Numbers assignment.
    I hope that this will meet your requirement.
    Regards,
    Bala

  • Serial number assignment to batch split position in outbound delivery

    Hello All,
    I have a question for which I can't find any answer even though I have been struggling through several forums, etc. Let me explain it:
    I create a outbound delivery for material XYZ which is batch managed and serial number managed. An automatic batch determination takes place. Thus a batch split is created for the main item 10. Since the serial number is required, I enter the serial number for the batch split position 900001. Press enter and save.
    The problem is, that afterwards the batch split positions aren't shown in the Batch split screen using transaction VL02N (the batch split positions and also the serial number can be displayed via VL03N). The issue is that the serial number entered cannot be removed nor the batch split can be changed anymore.
    Message VL429: Batch/Val.type split only possible if no serial numbers are maintained.
    It seems to be a standard SAP functionality, but a little bit tricky. Can anybody help me?
    1. How can I remove the serial number assignment for a batch split position?
    2. Is there any customizing setting with which I could perhaps deactivate the check?
    Thanks a lot in advance. Any input is appreciatted!

    Hi,
    issue has been solved at last. The batch split indicator can be used to display the batch structure of an item. And here the serial number can be removed as well.

  • Serial Numbers in A Storage Bin

    Dear all,
    In warehouse management we have serial numbers attached to each item in the warehouse and these items are batch managed. During goods receipt serial numbers are scanned using RF scanner and a transfer order is created for each item. We have a customer table to store the details like storage location and storage bin etc when they are first scanned in. There is no problem here.
    If items are transferred from one storage bin to another using a transfer order, system is picking the serial numbers required for the transfer order posting. When corresposing material document is displayed using MB51, there is a tab for serial numbers that are included in this material document.
    Is there any way to get all the serial numbers of the items stored at Storage Bin level?
    Thanks and regards
    Raj

    Hi Christian,
    Thanks for the reply.
    In the mean time I was talking some more people here regarding this problem. Looks like there is no one obvious place where equipment serial numbers are stored.
    Further digging in to SAP I could make out that the serial numbers get distributed to tables SER01 to SER07 based on the activity performed with key in OBJK. I think I will be able to get there.
    I appreciate your time and reply.
    Regards

  • Serial not working for Acobat X

    Hi, I've just installed a new version of CS5. I was using the trial version for a few weeks and I realised that Acrobat Pro was not installed.
    Not to worry I thought.
    Today, I bought the serial for Design Premium CS5 and rang Adobe to confirm that we would recieve Acrobat X serial upon purchasing the serials.
    They said we would.
    Indeed, I did get two serials. However, one was for CS5 Design Premium (which worked!) and the other was for Acobat 9 Pro which does not work with my installed trial version of Acrobat X.
    Can someone from the Customer Support team please help as I currently have a trial version of Acrobat X that's still asking for a serial.
    Ta
    Adrian

    Creative Suite currently ships with Acrobat 9 - *not* Acrobat X.
    Because of the way the license manager operates, you always get two serial numbers - one for CS, and one for Acrobat - but serials for Acrobat 9 will not of course work for Acrobat X, trial or no trial.
    Acrobat X Pro will be included in the next dot release of CS5, details of which will be sent automatically to customers with a support subscription plan. At this time we cannot give any more information on dates, prices or upgrade paths.
