Significance of messge ME 161 in Changing the PO quantity

Hi All,
Can someone explain me the significance of the message ME 161 "Notified quantity exceeds quantity ordered & &". I am getting this error message while changing the quantity in the purchase order .This message is customizable and this has been set as error message in our system . I worked around this error message by changing the vendor confirmation quantity same as the PO quantity. I would know the reason for this error message and its significance.
Thanks in advance for your immediate reply.
with regards,
Joseph Anand B

It is used to control that the Vendor confirmation Quantity should not be more than PO Qty..

Changing the Confirmed Quantity in Sales Order

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement to change the confirmed quantity of the line item of the sales order. Is there any FM or BAPI that I can use? And how?
Thanks,
Andre

Hello,
I am having to deal with a similar issue.
The allocated quantity needs to be reset, so that the quantities can be allocated again according to the checking rule for product allocation.
This is probably not clear anymore, I am also totally confused now, so I'll add an example.
Example:
SCENARIO 1: Rejected item quantity not available to earlier order:
Assume product ABC is on a monthly allocation plan at a channel level
Available units = 100 units
Allocation plan = 50 units for Channel1, 50 units for Channel2
Assume all orders in this scenario are for one channel
1.     Order 1 is entered
Qty of 40     confirmed from ATP check, confirmed from allocation check
RESULT: allocation of 40 units is consumed, available allocation = 10 units
2.     Order 2 is entered
Qty of 20     confirmed from ATP check, confirmed for 10 units from allocation check
Remaining 10 units unconfirmed
RESULT: allocation of 10 is consumed, available Allocation = 0 units
Unconfirmed order quantity = 10 units
3.     Order 1is rejected
line item for Qty 40 is rejected
RESULT: available allocation = 40 units
4.     Order 3 is entered
Qty of 40     confirmed from ATP check, confirmed from allocation check
Allocation of 40 is consumed
RESULT: allocation of 40 is consumed, available allocation = 0
5.     Rescheduling is run for this product (order creation date determines priority in the queue)
EXPECTED RESULT:
Order 2 has highest priority and would be committed for 20 units, leaving 30 units for Order 3
Order 3 Commit quantity 30, unconfirmed quantity 10
Order 1 Line item was rejected, (no committed quantity)
RESULT:
Order 2 - Commit quantity 10, unconfirmed = 10 (as available allocation 0)
Order 3 - Commit quantity 40
Order 1 - Line item was rejected
So I need to reset the allocated quantities first...
Were you able to find a solution for this?

WM-production order-need change the open quantity in Transfer order

Hi,
   I created the production order (order quantity 1000). i did material staging and generated TR. .
   But i need to change the open quantity in transfer order . i need to create the partial Transfer order
    against TR..
   KINDLY SUGGEST ME
   WITH REGARDS
   Dinesh

Hi Dinesh,
TO for partial qty is possible.
When you are doing material staging with 319 mov.type, you create a transfer order for partial quantity as follows:
You first create a manual transfer order using transaction LT04.
You specify the TR number in the intial screen and navigate to the detail screen, system shows the Open TR quantity and the proposed TO quantity. By default, both these quantities are equal to the TR quantity.
However, when you create by clicing the "Create TO button" (the icon with a plus sign in the tool bar of LT04 screen), system takes you to another screen where it asks for the "Requested Qty" on the top of the screen. Here you can modify the qty as per your requirement; then you can check and confirm the storage type and storage bin for source and destination stocks & save.
It is important that you give the correct source storage type & storage bin that is having stock or otherwise system might give error message.
System will create a TO line item with the entered qty and propose the balance TR qty as the 2nd TO line item. You can skip this 2nd TO item or delete it from the TO.
Once again, if you click the Save button, system will save the TO with the partial quantity.
The balance quantity will be available in the TR as open quantity and this can be seen in the header data of transaction LB03.

How to change the open quantity of PO / STO using BAPI_PO_CHANGE

Hi Friends,
How can I change the open quantity in ME22 using the BAPI BAPI_PO_CHANGE...
I am getting some errors..The values I am passing to the BAPI are:-
*-- Purchase Order document
    lv_purchaseorder = tbl_join-ebeln.
*-- Calculate Open quantity
    lv_quantity = ( tbl_join-menge - tbl_join-wemng ).
*-- Fills Schedule quantity to be processed.
    tbl_poschedule-po_item      = tbl_join-ebelp.
    tbl_poschedule-sched_line   = tbl_join-etenr.
    tbl_poschedule-quantity     = lv_quantity.
    APPEND tbl_poschedule.
*-- Marks the Schedule quantity to be processed.
    tbl_poschedulex-po_item     = tbl_join-ebelp.
    tbl_poschedulex-sched_line = tbl_join-etenr.
    tbl_poschedulex-po_itemx    = c_true.
    tbl_poschedulex-sched_linex = c_true.
    tbl_poschedulex-quantity    = c_true.

       POSCHEDULEX                  = tbl_poschedulex.
Is there any other required fields needs to be passed to change the open quantity..
I am checking in ME22...
The scheduled quantity is 20.
Delivered quantity is 15.
Open quantity is 5   and ( this field is in non-editable display )
Delivery date is 10.10.2002 ( which is in past )
Now using this BAPI ..I want to post the remaining open quantity which is " 5 "
How can i do this ?? Please help.

Hi Hari
Please check after making the following changes:
*-- Marks the Schedule quantity to be processed.
tbl_poschedulex-po_item = tbl_join-ebelp.
tbl_poschedulex-sched_line = tbl_join-etenr.
<b>tbl_poschedulex-po_itemx = 'U'. "c_true.
*tbl_poschedulex-sched_linex = c_true.</b>
tbl_poschedulex-quantity = c_true.
APPEND tbl_poschedulex.
If still you do not get the desired function working add the below code:
tbl_poitem-po_item = tbl_join-ebelp.
tbl_poitem-quantity = lv_quantity.
append tbl_poitem.
tbl_poitemx-po_item = tbl_join-ebelp.
tbl_poitemx-po_itemx = 'U'.
tbl_poitemx-quantity = c_true.
append tbl_poitemx.
Hope this helps.

Changing the Requirement Quantity in Reserations

Dear PS Experts,
In a Project, I created a reservation of 5 units of item A. Then I issued 2 items against the reservation.
Later on I tried to change my reservation requirement quantity to 6 and SAP allowed it. Then I changed the same quantity to 1 which is below the issued quantity even that was allowed.
My question is why are the above changes allowed after material issue takes place ? (is it a common business requirement)
Else, is there an SPRO setting where we can restrict the above?
Cheers
Deepal

Hi,
That is the standard SAP functionality only. This is not a strange behaviour of the system. If you create any reservations manually, the system will allow to change at any point of time. While creating the production order or MRP created planned orders will create the reservations. That reservations you can't change.

Unable to change the order quantity value during save of sales order

Hi Experts,
There is a need to change the order quantity value, based on some conditions, when pressed 'ENTER' or during 'SAVE' of the sales order (VA01, VA02).
We are trying to change the order quantity value (KWMENG) in table XVBAP in the subroutines userexit_field_modification, userexit_save_document and userexit_save_document_prepare of the user exit 'MV45AFZZ'. But the change is not replicated to field on GUI.
The order quantity value can be changed in subroutine 'userexit_move_field_to_vbap', but the subroutine is not getting triggered when user changes only the order quantity on screen.
Please help us in resolving this issue.
Regards,
Santosh

Thanks for your time guys. The issue is resolved.
SAP is not triggering the vbap user exit as the order quantity on screen is in structure RV45A.
There are two ways of resolving the issue.
1. Implement the SAP note #513342 - Quantity change and USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP. But, it is SAP modification note.
2. Write the code in VBEP exit of MV45AFZZ. This user exit is called whenever the order quantity is changed. But, it is called multiple times in some cases. Hence, need to write code to limit our code execution only once e.g. maintain a global table with our quantity & uom. Check when the quantity and uom in our table is same as quantity on screen. If not, exit from user-exit.

Problem when changing the target quantity for a contract

Hello,
I have a problem when i try to change the target quantity for a contract through the BAPI 'BAPI_CONTRACT_CHANGE'.
I filled the tables 'item' and 'itemx' with new values. the BAPI 'BAPI_CONTRACT_CHANGE' returns no error, but after using the BAPI 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' I get an info message from SAP and the modification does not pass.
In debugger I could locate the error. In fact, the appeal of FM 'ME_UPDATE_DOCUMENT is done with a table XEKKN with the new values of the quantity and a KZ code equal to ' I ' to insert, then it must have the value ' U 'for update .
Is someone can help me to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance.

Have you tried selecting the page, and then changing the theme directly on that page?

Whether system will allow to change the PO Quantity , etc after GRN ?

Dear Expert,
Please let me know whether system(standard SAP ) will allow to change the PO Quantity , Net price and Price per unit after partial/fully accepting the GRN against the PO?
regards,
Kumar.

dear,
This is possible in 1 way and not possible in another way.
I will explain you in details:
If Po cretaed of 100 Qty........GRN done for 20 Qty.....Then you can go and can change PO qty to 20 .....
There you can change Qty to 20....System will allow you to change the Qty...
NOw If you want to change the qty less than 20 ( GRN qty)...Then System will now allow you to change it.

Change the stock quantity!!

Hi
Is ther any fm for changing the HU Quantity . I tried using HUINV_ITEM_CHANGE , doesn't seems to be working..
pls help
Regards
Gunjan

Hi Gunjan,
Actually calling HUINV_ITEM_CHANGE will not update the database. All the function module does is update an internal table viz. "gt_inv_item" which is part of the function group HU_INV. In this function group, there exists another function module viz. HUINV_POST_DB which actually posts/commits the changes from the internal table into the database.
Hence I would suggest you go through the function group mentioned above and a possible solution might come in the form of using a sequence of call functions to achieve the result.
Hope it helps.

Error while changing the component quantity

I facing an issue, while changing the component quantity of the process order. Parent material have fixed lot size and the componenets maintained as fixed quantity in BOM. When I try to change the quantity of the components in process order, it showing an message "Please re-explode the BOM, since the component quanities are changed.
Why am getting this message?
Regards,

Hi
As Mr Reddy said, there is a fixed quantity indicator ticked in the BOM, therefore you are getting that error. Please remove the tick in BOM in the item details besides the quantity field and then try changing the quantites while confirming.

Changing the delivered quantity using BAPI

As per the reqt, for Internal customers I m changing the delivered qty (LIPS-LFIMG) to a rounded quantity based on the KNMT-RDPRF(full box qty) value.
I m passing the rounded quantity to an BAPI_OUTB_DELIVERY_CHANGE , expecting it to change the delivery quantity value from the all the related delivery tables like the LIPS and others.
But this BAPI is not functioning as desired, what might be the error and is there any other option by which which I can change the deliverey quantity to an rounded qty in the field LIPS-LFIMG.
Please help to resolve this.

Hi Vishnu,
At first I was surprised to see this question. We cannot change material number. Hence there are 2 options available:
1) Create a copy of the material and change the material number to what you want at the time of creation of the new material by inserting code in the fm that generates a material number.
2) use the field material_external to store the material number required. This field is available in the import parameter 'HEADDATA' of BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.
The second option should be better.

V_V2 CHanged the COnfirmed Quantity to 0

Hi SD Gurus,
We have a background job that runs V_V2 nightly. This morning, I checked one sales order that was changed. The Confirmed quantity was changed from 5000 to 0. I am not sure why this happened because there is stock for that material in MMBE. Am i missing anything here?
Thanks,
Jograd

Hi,
Rescheduling run will only snatch away confirmed quantity from a Sales Order if there is another Sales Order/ STO with higher "priority" seeking stock for delivery.
Rescheduling "priority" can be set by sequencing parameters like Document Category, Delivery Priority, Creation date, Document Number, Item Number as per the business logic you want.
I would suggest to first have a look at MD04 for the material in question and check the stock allocation.
You can find out which documents have snatched the confirmation from the order in question.
You should be able tp pin point the issue, using this.
Else please let me know your observation, in case you require further help.
Thanks
Sachin

Change the issue quantity for different plants

We are facing a problem in the following issue.
A material is being used in two plants. The material is procured from vendors in packets. The pack quantity varies for each plant for the same material since it is procured from different vendor. The base unit of measure for the material in the material master is maintained as NOS and the unit of issue is PAC. The alternative unit of measure in the material master can be maintained for only one PAC. If the pack quantity varies for different plant, how to maintain in the material master.
For example : -
Plant I u2013 Vendor A u2013 Pack quantity u2013 200nos.
Plant II u2013 Vendor B u2013 Pack quantity u2013 300 nos.
While creating reservation in plant II for one pack, the stock keeping quantity is 200 nos. On issue the issue quantity is 200 nos, but our requirement is the system should issue 300 nos. Kindly give solution to the problem.

Hy afzal,
I don't think it is possible to maintain different Conversion factor for 2 different plant for a single material.
Acording to me there is 3 way to comeout of this problem.
1) Create different Material codes for both plants.
2) Insted of using alternate unit of measure use Batch specific unit of measure.But for this Materials are Batch Managed.
[Batch Specific Unit of measure|http://help.sap.com/bestpractices/BBLibrary/Documentation/Q24_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc]
3) Try to convince one of the vendor to change its packing qty/Packet.

Dhaval
