Shortfall of 181 days against remaining shelf life in current item(18Month)

Hi All,
When performing a GR for PO, where purchase info record was maintained with minimum remaining shelf life of 18 M. On performing the GR, system throws up an error message 'Shortfall of 181 days against remaining shelf life in current item(18Month)', when the production date was entered 07/27/2009. What does this error message mean and how is the 181 days calculated ?

PSS

First understand concept of minimum remaining shelf life.
Minimum shelf life does not has direct relation with info record. It comes from/ system calculate it based on Material master --> Plant data/ storage 1 --> Field name: "Minimum rem. shelf life". It shows - Minimum amount of time for which the material must keep upon GR for the goods receipt to be accepted by the system.
In Material master --> Plant data/ store 1 --> Field name: "Total shelf life". It shows - "Period for which the material will keep in total, that is, from the date of production to the shelf life expiration date"
Now at the time of GRN once you enter Date of manufacture then base on material master --> total shelf life system will calculate "SLED/ BBD".
Based on this calculation system through this message of "shortfall of 181 days".
If you still have confusion please let me know what you have entre in material master --> for minimum rem. shelf life & total shelf life. So I can reply you with exact calculation.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!!!

Shortfall of 818 days against remaining shelf life

Hi Experts:
I am trying to perform MIGO for an inbound delivery coming from a Scheduling Agreement. I got the errror "shortfall of 818 days against remaining shelf life". I checked the material master, the shelf life of the material is 182 days only. How could it be? I would appreciate receiving solutions to the problem.

hi,
Pls check some points:
You enter the shelf life data into the storage view of the material master record. This data includes:
Maximum time a material can be stored
Minimum shelf life a material must have available to be accepted by the system
Percentage of the total shelf life that must still be available if the goods are to be sent to another distribution point
Time unit used for the shelf life data (days, weeks or years)
Total number of days that the goods can be kept u2013 from production to the shelf life expiration date...
If anything else will soon update it..

Shortfall of X days against remaining shelf life

Hi Gurus,
User is not able to post MIGo for a particular material and Erro what he is getting is ' short fall of 218 days against remaining shelf life in cuurent item'.
Material detail:(current data in system)
Total shelf life: 730 days
Min rem shelf life: 90days

But, Older data :
Total shelf life: 730 days
Min rem shelf life: 365 days

The material production date what we have to enter in MIGO is 01.09.2007 and expiration date as 31.08.2009.
Please suggest me if the old material data is affecting Material doc posting or have i missed any setting?

Hi Jurgen,
Delivery date is in Day format.
I for got to add one more information, The PO is created using a old PR nu,ber: This PR was created for the material when it had older data ( Min rem life of 365 days).
Since user is referring this old PR for creating the PO, is it affecting the GR process?

Re:Shortfall of 3 Days against SLED in current item (22.01.2010)

Dear All,
I am recieving this message when I am trying to do a GR against a process order.
The order qty.: 150
ist GR was for 50. there was not problem But today when I am tring to do the second GR against this order the system is giving me this message.
In the mat. master data maintaed is :
shelf life: 10 day
min. rem. shelf life:1 day
based on that if I put the actual date. of mfg. I get the message: Shortfall of 3 Days against SLED in current item (22.01.2010)
& if I put today date as the date of mfg. I get the message: Production date of bch NG9003 (12.01.2010) does not match the prod. date entered (25.01.2010)
I believe that in the first case the system has found the material to be expired & in the second case there is a conflict in the date of mfg.
Please advice how to resolve this issue.

Shortfall of 85 days against SLED in current item

Dear Masters
while doing goods receipt for some of materials it troughing an error like
Shortfall of 85 days against SLED in current item, may be this is due to batch expiry.
so how to rectify this.

Check the batch search strategy settings in t.code MBC2. May be this setting, is providing this message. If so then change the data regarding SLED check and then try to do the goods receipt again.

GR posting date is being considered as Shelf life expiry date

Following settings made in material master:
In Purchasing view: Batch management check box ticked.
In Plant data / stor.1 view: (Shelf life data): Max storage period is 1, Time unit: YR
Min remaining shelf life:1, Total Shelf life: 365, Period Ind for SLED: D
Following data entered in GR:
Document date: 10.03.2011, Posting date:10.03.2011
In batch management tab of GR: Date of Manufacturing is :01.12.2010, SLED/BBD is appearing as 01.12.2011
While taking shelf life report (on 12.03.2011) for the said material following output is displayed:
Remaining shelf life SLED / BBD
-2 days 10.03.2011
In batch display (MSC3N) Shelf life exp. date is appearing as 10.03.2011 where as in GR document it is showing as 01.12.2011.
Kindly help where is the problem.
regards,

Hi,
It is interesting.
I understood the problem but for getting solution, you have to get ABAPeru2019s help.
In calculation in report, the report date 12.03.2011(DD.MM.YYYY) is taken by system as 03.12.2011(DD.MM.YYYY) and SLED is as per GR document 01.12.2011(DD.MM.YYYY). So 1-3= -2 days. Now, for calculating SLED date, system is deducting 2 days (or you can say adding -2) in report date 12.03.2011 (DD.MM.YYYY). So this is 10.03.2011.
So in batch display (MSC3N), it is showing calculated date 10.03.2011.
Please explain it to ABAPer & debug it, you will get solution.
Before that try one thing. Check your user profile for date format. If it is MM.DD.YYYY, change it to DD.MM.YYYY, or vice versa. Then take report again , also check in MSC3N.

Minimum shelf life and delivery completed indicator at GR

Dear Gurus,
I have two questions:
1. As per my knowledge minimum shelf life is "minimum number of days for which the material must be keep for GR to be accepted" , (i.e. if it is 10 days the material should accepted for GR only after 10days of production ) but if I do a GR for today produced material still I m not getting any error. Why?
2. Since we can do GR for "delivery completed" indicator set items. Canu2019t we get an error message if we try to post GR for delivery completed item (e.g. what is the use of message numbers 433 and 025)
Thanks,
Chameendri

Hi,
Answer to Question 1:
Total Shelf life - If total shelf life is maintained then the minimum shelf life will also to be entered mandatory. While taking
GR for such item, it actually ask the user to enter the Manufactured date so that the system automatically calculates the
expiry date.
Minimum shelf life ( or Minimum remaining shelf life)- While taking the GR, it asks the user to enter the date of GR date so that it checks whether the
days entered in material master has been satisfied. If the condition is not satisfied then it will not allow to take receipt for
that item.
Example A material has a minimum remaining shelf life of 20 days and a total shelf life of 30 days. You enter the goods
receipt of a new batch on 23/02/12 and enter 11/02/12 as production date. The system calculates the shelf life expiration date 15/03/12 from the production date plus total shelf life (30 days). The batch still has a remaining shelf life of 18 days. The goods
receipt is not accepted (short fall of 2 days from minimum remaining shelf life)
Now if the production date is 14/02/12 then batch still has a remaining shelf life of 21 days The goods receipt is accepted
Answer to Question 2:
Not possible to restrict by activating system messages only
So refer this solution

Check shelf life date by customer when goods issue

Hi
Since each customers will required to have different remaining shelf life of the product when deliver to their store such as 7-11 may required 100 days, Tesco Lotus 150 days so the manufacturing and trading companies of foods & beverage needs to control shelf life of their product by customer.
In general , shelf life is set in material master - storage view so it's not attach to each customer - anybody know how to apply it?
Pls help
Regards,
Chanchana

Hi,
You can control this via batch determination. Using condition technique, you can set the desired length of remaining shelf life for each of your customer (I mean you can create a condition record for each of them with the suitable parameters).

Shelf Lif of a material

Dear ALl
System should not allow to issue a material whose shelf lie is expired?
Can you suggest any soultion for this?
Pl update ASAP
Manoj

Hi,
During creation of Material in MM01.....In Gen Plant data/storage 1 view, Maintain required values in the Field of .....Total Self Life ( lets say 90days) and in Min. Remaining shelf life ( is 60days).....
When you do GR for this material the System will ask for Date of Production of material( u enter here0 ...from that the system automatically calculates it SLED....and it checks the Remaining shelf life Expiry Date also...and if it falls earlier than that...the system will give you Error message and will not allow you to Post the GR...(example:1, If ur receiving today ie..27.03.2008 and production date is 29.01.2008{ falls within 60days, then system will post GR, example:2, If ur receiving today ie..27.03.2008 and production date is 12.01.2008{ not falls within 60days} , then system will not post GR.

When ever a material is having a shelf life , based upon the manyfactring date and the receiving date , the remaining shelf life can be found . If you want have a report which says the shelf life and receve date of a perticular batch and what should be the remaining shlef life or whather expired , once come into the plant , if not utilized , can be done through a ZREPORT or a query for the same .

Control "Shelf Life" date: Transaction LT03

Hi,
we want to check the validity date of the field "Shelf Life" (field SLEDBBD in the ALV) in the transaction LT03 before creating the Tranfert Order. For the moment the standard does not provide any control on this field:
Basically, the standard flow is in that way:
LT03: Create a Tranfert Order for Delivery (no control)
LT12: ConfirmationCheck the validity date of the Shelf Life
Reject
Accept
Our need consists to generate a blocking error message when the validating batch number is expired in LT03, like that:
Have you got some Technical/Custo idea?
Best regards.

STO delivery should not happen for shelf life expired material

Hai all,
When we are doing PGI for STO-PO. shelf life expired material should not do the delivery.The system should give the error message. but in our system when we do PGI the shelf life expired material is deliverying.
how do we maintain the error message when we doing PGI.
Edited by: hemanth s on Sep 12, 2008 9:37 AM

Hi,
In Inventory management there is a which helps you "Set expiration Date Check". This allows you to make sure that the shelf life of the material is checked before delivery.
In Material master, you would need to enter relevant information in the "Plant Data/Stor. 1" tab page (Min remaining shelf life, total shelf life). Also in IMG settings, you need to activate the check for both Plant and movement type. The path is as follows:
IMG Settings > Material Management > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory > Goods Receipt > Set Expiration Date Check. TCode: OMJ5
Cheers.

Hi,
Thanks to Caetano, Kumar & Mani..
We have achieved this with below with customized program....
Exclude those batches from MRP run whose difference between the (expiration date &
current date ) is less than or equal to its procurement time mention in MRP-2
view of material master.
Before running MRP, one need to execute the program with following option:
Input data will be plant, material type or list of material:
   System should execute following logic:
1) In a plant list all material with given material type
2) Execute the BAPI for find out the characteristic value of EXB_MRP from class
type 001of material class (BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL_KEY)
3) If EXB_MRP = Y , then list out all such material.
4) For such a material identity those batches which are available in stock other
than ‘9999’
5) All such batches characteristic of shelf life expiry date need to be derived
from BAPI
6) Calculate ( Expiry Date - Today’s Date)
= Difference
PLIFZ ), batch of
the material will be transferred to the 9999 storage location which will be
excluded from MRP run.
