Serial numbers for materials

hello,
I have done a setup for serial numbers and when I do the GR I get a blank serial number list.
I earlier used transaction IQ04 and maintained for one article the various serial numbers.
When I do the GR I must be able to autmaticlaly see all the serial numbers related to the article. The system shows blank serial numbers although I have maintained them.
Can you help to identify what I have missed that the serial number based on aarticle doesnt get coped over to the GR document?
Another point is when I do the GI I also dont see the serial numbers for which I have done the GR for the article. What am I missing here?
Thanks

hi
how the serial no profile has been configured ,ie if the exist required is marked in the serial no profile then while making the GR you have to select the serial no alredy created,but if you doesn't select the same you have to mark the serial no automatically while making the goods receipt
kindly check
regards

Interface: Populating serial numbers for materials in idoc

Hello All,
Do you know how can we transfer serial numbers in idocs and then updating them in sales orders agains materials......
Lets say, i have 10 materials as 10 line items in my sales order so i would get these details in idocs and then we need to create one sales order with these 10 line items and assign serial numbers to all of them......
Could you please reply me at the earliest if you know how to do this.....
Thanks,
Patil.

Hi Shankar;
I am unaware of any function module, I searched for it high and low a few months ago... This website describes the process of getting the serial numbers using WM if it is of any help to you...

How to get serial numbers for materials in stock.

Dear all,
I need the table / FM from which i can get the serial numbers associated with a specific Material Doc Number.
Currently, I am going to mseg-> get MBLNR
Pass MSEG-MBLNR it to SER03 -> get Object List
Pass SER03-OBKNR to OBJK -> get serial numbers( SERNR )
As this is a long process and it will take time to execute , Please mention some alternatives by which we can get the desired result.
Thanking you in advance,
Shankar

Serial Numbers for Raw Materials

Hello All,
We are not using serial numbers at the moment, but we would like to assign a serial number to each material that enters the warehouse. So not on finished goods, but on raw materials. If we for instance order 10 boxes of a material, we would like to create 10 different serial numbers for these boxes (in MIGO).
Batch management is not the solution, since the 10 boxes would receive the same number, whereas we want a unique number per box.
Is this possible?
Regards, Marc

Thanks for your replies.
We already have storage unit types, one of them is "Box". So in the warehouse mgmt 2 tab, an entry has been made which looks like:
LE quantity Un Sut
1. 100 Ea Box
This works nicely when goods are putaway: the system suggests that if there are 1000 materials ready for putaway, 10 boxes are delivered and thus 10 storage bins are required.
The only thing that fails is that there will be 1000 serial numbers generated, instead of 10. Handling Unit management is no option, because that brings a lot of workload with packing and unpacking goods. Changing the base unit of measure to box is not an option, since a box is no unit of measure.

how to initialize serial numbers for a particular material

This means that you are not mapped as a worker in the system
Go to HRMS resp..create employment...then go to sysadmin user form and query the user for which u want to associate..
then in the person field map the user which u created employment
Then you should be able to access the all the purchasing forms

Serial Numbers for delivery

Hi,
i am cerated serial no. But it created only one no.
when i am cerated outbound delivery, serial no. is assigned.
But when i am trying to PGI showing the following error
Pls help me out
Item 000010 requires exactly 5 serial numbers for the asset
Regards,
Rao P

Hi Mr. Rao,
Looks like your material configure in that way, it requires 5 serial number.
You do one thing --> Go to IQ04 --> Give your maerial number --> Then in the field "No. serial numbers" give the figure how many serial number you want --> Like one you have already created --> Give 4 in the field "No. serial numbers" --> Enter
If your serial number require equipment view also --> then click at "View selection" --> Click at equipment --> Enter --> Save
After that go to delivery and assign your serial number to your materials.

Hi Banerjee,
Actually we are trying to use the same bapi from se37, we are passing all the details which is required to process the bapi_goodmvt_create. But still the bapi returning the same error what sangeeta got in the above. Can you please guide me how to achieve this.
how the values has to pass to the Serial Number?
What exactly meant by Counter Values ?

Missing Serial Numbers for CS4 COmponents & Acrobat X Pro

Greetings!
I installed CS5.5 on my 32-bit system, which means I had to install the included "complimentary" CS4 copies of After Effects & Premiere Pro. As stated in one of the Adobe troubleshooting sections I read, the CS4 components require a separate CS4 serial number. As also stated in that same section, Acrobat and CS products have different serial numbers. Unfortunately, I was only given one serial number, and that one was for CS5.5. See image below for related screenshot collage.
The serial number has been intentionally rendered unreadable for obvious reasons, but it's sufficient to show that there's only one serial number associated with my products. I need serial numbers for the 32-bit CS4 components and for Acrobat X Pro. How do I get them? I tried chatting with an Adobe support agent a couple weeks ago, and he told me he couldn't help me. He said I needed to get the serial numbers from the company that provided me with the CS5.5 serial number (Identit-E, who evidently gets involved with providing serial numbers for validated student license purchases). They said they couldn't help me, and that I had to get with Adobe! So I'm being run around in circles with nobody taking responsibility! And when I tried to follow instructions and a link that I thought MIGHT give me some answers (on this page: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/517/cpsid_51791.html)...
"In North America: If you're a student or educator, look in the Adobe Student Licensing website"
...I got a warning from my browser that it's an untrusted site:
I'm not into taking that kind of risk.
So I've done about all I can think to do, including contacting the actual reseller who sold me the software (no word from them yet). Nobody's claiming responsibility, and they're pointing at each other. That leaves me in the middle with no answers and only partially working, very expensive software!
If there are any ideas from folks on this forum, I'm all ears!
Thanks!

DI-Error: You cannot select batch or serial numbers for a closed row

Hello Experts,
I have several B1-Systems connected to R/3-Systems via B1iSN.
In B1 for example I have 2 rows in Purchase Order. One row was closed by a goods receipt - 1 row is still open.
From our R/3-System we send Order-Acknowledgements to B1. Because line 1 is already closed we want to ignore row 1 and update only information in row 2. By using KeyExpansion I could solve that requirement (check in B1-System if row is already closed -> insert row in IDoc only with LineNum). For example:
<Document_Lines>
*<row>* 
    *<LineNum>0</LineNum>*
*</row>*
   <row> 
    <LineNum>1</LineNum>
    <ItemCode>ABCDEFGHIJK</ItemCode>
</row>
</Document_Lines>
Unfortunately DI-API does not allow to update each row separated. I always have to send all rows in IDoc even if one row is closed.
For one B1-Company batchnumbers on every transaction is required. When creating Goods Receipt we have to define a batchnumber for item. But now if I want to update a open row (as described above) I get an B1iSN-Error:
DI Error: (-10) You cannot select batch or serial numbers for a closed row
Any ideas to solve that Error? Thanks.

GB

Hi Bastian,
I have still one open question. How to tread Document Lines Additional Expenses?
If I use the logic of visual order I still get the error "You cannot select batch or serial numbers for a closed row".
Example:
<Document_LinesAdditionalExpenses>
-      <row>
           <LineNumber>4</LineNumber>*no expenses*
</row>
-      <row>
           <LineNumber>0</LineNumber>*no expenses*
</row>
-     <row>
           <LineNumber>1</LineNumber>*no expenses*
</row>
-     <row>
           <LineNumber>2</LineNumber>*no expenses*
</row>
-     <row>
           <LineNumber>3</LineNumber>*expenses correct*
           <ExpenseCode>3</ExpenseCode>
           <LineTotal>10.00</LineTotal>
</row>
</Document_LinesAdditionalExpenses>
How can I solve that?
Thanks and regards,

Retrieve Multiple Serial Numbers for given Delivery Document and Item

Hello Experts,
                      I am currently working on a 2Lis datasource to extract Delivery information.Now it is required to append the
datasource with field (say ZZSERNO) which should extract ALL Serial Numbers from OBJK table for a given Delivery Item.
I know that there is a link between table SER01 and OBJK to retrieve the same.However, my concern is- C_T_Data table is
already providing the Delivery Information and along with that I want to display ALL Serial numbers for a given Delivery Item.
A delivery Item can have more that one serial number linked to it as what I see in VL03N for a Delivery document.
So currently in RSA3, I retrieve say 1 record for a given Delivery Document and Item .Now an Item has say 10 Serial Numbers
associated with it, so i should see 10 Records for that Delivery Document and Item, after executing RSA3.
Please provide me with the CMOD logic to do so.

Hi,
You can Link LIPS and OBJK tables with Delivery and Del Item.........refer below for the code.
1) Declare an Internal table of type OBJK with fields DEL DOC, DEL ITEM and ZZSERNO .
2) Declare another Internal Table ITAB_LIPS of type LIPS with required fields say in your case *DEL DOC, DEL ITEM and ZZSERNO....etc.
3) Use below select statement to extract records from LIPS into ITAB_LIPS that you have declared for to fetch LIPS data.
Select DEL DOC, DEL ITEM ( here i have included only few fields but as per requirement please add fields here)   from
LIPS into corresponding fields of Table ITAB_LIPS.
4) write one more select statement to fetch Serial number data.
Select DEL DOC, DEL ITEM ZZSERNO from OBJK into corresponding fields of TABLE ITAB_OBJK for all entries in ITAB_LIPS
where DEL DOC = ITAB_LIPS-DEL DOC and
            DEL ITEM = ITAB_LIPS-DEL ITEM.
Loop at ITAB_OBJK.
Read table ITAB_OBJK into ITAB_LIPS with keys DEL DOC    DEL ITEM.
ITAB_LIPS-DEL DOC = ITAB_LIPS-DEL DOC
ITAB_LIPS-DEL ITEM = ITAB_OBJK-DEL ITEM.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
ITAB_LIPS-ZZSERNO = ITAB_OBJK-ZZSERNO.
ENDIF
ENDLOOP.
Hope the above code helps

Can we capture two types of Serial Numbers for a material?

Hi,
I have scenario where i need to capture two different types of serial numbers for a material. This scenario is very similar to the below one -
Say if a CAR is a serialized material, then i want to capture engine no. and chasis no. for each car.
I know in standard serial number management, we can capture one kind of serial no. for an item, but can we capture two types of serial number for an item? If yes, how we can do that?
Please help.
Thanks,
Parimal.

Hi,
No it is not possible to have two serial numbers for a material.
The main attribute of a serial number is that it is UNIQUE.
You can better have the vehicle number as the required serial number and the other numbers under the Manufacturer data of the General data tab of the IQ01 transaction. ( Equipment master creation ).
You can better change the name of the manufacturer data such as Model number to Engine numeber and Manu serial no to Chasis no etc.., using CMOD transactions.
Regards
