Need help on enhancement of 0CO_OM_OPA_1 with Material and Plant

Hi,
I have a requirement that need to build a BW report which shows Actual costs and Planned Costs of Service Orders. We are getting Actual costs from 0CO_OM_OPA_6 and now i am getting planned costs from 0CO_OM_OPA_1. For actual costs we are getting Service Orders, Material and plant from Satandard DS 0CO_OM_OPA_6. Where as For Planned Costs standard data source 0CO_OM_OPA_1 is not having Material and Plant information. For this we decided to enhance 0CO_OM_OPA_1 with Material and Plant.
But we are not sure the source tables for material and plant and the logic to extract these data from the tables. Can anybody please help me out.
Thanks for your supprt in advance.

It's possible you may need to use a CO-PA (profitability analysis) datasource instead of 0CO_OM_OPA_6. 0CO_OM_OPA_6 extracts data from CO tables.
Based on the path you provided "...Profit. segment...", the requested data might exist with CO-PA.
If you determine the required data resides in CO-PA, you'll have to create a datasource based on the operating concern. You can perform a search within the online docs for steps to create this datasource.
Hope this helps.

How GUID helps to link the backend documents and SRM docuements and updates

Hello All
there is no SRM business Objects without GUIDS.
how really it updates the backend docuemnts and bringing the related docuemnts with use of GUID.
Can any one expalin in details clena job and get status does this job?
How this GUID concepts developed (Global Unique id).
What a fantastic concept of GUID !!!!
How backend understands SRM GUIDs and where these GUIDs are stored in backend system.

Thanks Jash,
you mean the objecttype_hi could only be '05' or '06'?
And I am reading some exsiting codes, there is a fragment:
SELECT DISTINCT
 e~guid
 e~object_id
 e~description
 c~stat
 d~priority
 e~created_at
 e~changed_at
 a~partner_no
 a~partner_fct
 FROM ( ( ( crmd_partner AS a
 INNER JOIN crmd_link AS b
 ON aguid = bguid_set )
 INNER JOIN crm_jest AS c
 ON bguid_hi = cobjnr )
 INNER JOIN crmd_activity_h AS d
 ON bguid_hi = dguid )
 INNER JOIN crmd_orderadm_h AS e
 ON bguid_hi = eguid
 INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_seltab
 WHERE b~objtype_hi = '05'
 AND b~objtype_set = '07'
 AND c~stat LIKE 'E%'
 AND e~process_type = gc_process_type-sr_serv_order
 AND c~inact = ''
 AND ( a~partner_fct = ls_bpfct-partner_fct
 OR a~partner_fct = ls_c_bpfct-partner_fct )
 .
I wonder how could CRMD_ORDERADM_Hguid CRMD_ACTIVITY_Hguid and CRM_JEST~objnr are identical.
Does it mean that the three tables describe the same object's different faces?
Thanks very much and Best Regards,
Marco

MB5L Report Discrepacy for Material and Stock Account Currency

I have found in the MB Report Discrepancy for Material and Stock Account Currency. Why is this happening? Why is there a variance between total price in materials and stock account? Anyone please help me. I'm abaper but now been pushed to do logistic. I need help for this issue.

Hi,
Here's some information from help. Variances can occur for the following reasons:
You have entered postings to the stock account manually.
The stock account includes not only stock postings, but also other postings. In this case, you should check the account determination in the Customizing for Valuation and Account Assignment. Make sure that the stock accounts are used solely for the transaction key BSX (stock postings).
Check Account Determination - OMWB
The account assignment for the stock accounts (transaction key BSX) was changed during productive operation; the respective stocks, however, were not deducted from the old account (movement type 562) and posted to the new one (movement type 561).
Cheers !

Material and representative material in PCA

Hello all,
I have an issue concerning material numbers in Profit Center Accounting. My aim is to be able to report on material group (attribute on 0MATERIAL) in BW for both plan and actuals.
In R/3 PCA they plan on field "representative material". Furthermore they post actuals on "material" field.
Extractor 0EC_PCA_1 brings all postings (plan + actuals) to BW, but does not include the "material" field. It only includes the "representative material" field, so I'm missing the possiblity to see the actuals per material number.
Extractor 0EC_PCA_3 brings all actual postings to BW and includes the "material number". However the representative field is not filled (since this is only actuals)
So I get what I need into BW, but in two different extractors (and also on two different aggregation levels).
I somehow need to merge the information of these two extractors. Is it a multi cube I should use here? Or should I rather try to modify 0EC_PCA_1 by adding the material number in an append structure? I actually tried this, but I still couldn't find the new field in the extractor. So I guess this is not possible here and that I have to go for the multi cube solution?
I need to get both the "representative material" and the "material" into info object "0MATERIAL" since the material group is an attribute of that. Could this work if I modify the update rules in cube 0PCA_C01 (this is filled with records from 0EC_PCA_1) so that repr. material points at 0MATERIAL (for plan values) and at the same time use cube 0PCA_C03 (this is filled with records from 0EC_PCA_3) which uses 0MATERIAL as standard (for the actuals).
I'd be extremely thankful for some ideas/help...
Thanks in advance!
best regards,
Fredrik

Hi Fredrik,
Some questions:
Is there a 1 on 1 relation between repr. mat. and material?
Do you have PCA_1 as Totals or Line Items?
If you want to report on material group you somewhere have to have a relation between repr. material and mat. group.
Of course you can always map the rep. into 0MATERIAL, but you MD has to be correct too.
And: Adding in PCA extractors is difficult!

A/R extractor - Material and Invoice Amount

Hi Gurus,
I just wanted to extract Material and Invoice amounts for Accounts Receivables from R/3 to BW?
Is there any standard extractor for the same.
I found 0FI_AR_4 but it doesnt have material field.
How can I link the BSID table with material.
Is it via Sales Document (VBELN)?
Regards,
Srini

Hi Srinivas ,
Invoice is part of AR but material (0material ) is not part of AR .It is part of SD .If you are looking for this field you may not find it .
You can check standart key figure and Characteristics available under it in this link :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/3b/eac53976b78867e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
If you want material you need to use SD material .If you want these fields for a report then you can make a multiprovider with AR and SD cubes Having both material and Invoice .

Created a material and want to post by using tcode mb1c, not allowing.?

friends i have a problem here, i created a material for my sales order. i wanted to post like 100 of them in my storage location. so i used tcode mb1c, entered the storage location , plant along with the movment type 561 . it goes in and there i enter the material and and the number to be posted (number of materials) .while saving it it gives the error ."posting period 008 2007 is not open" i had earlier encounterd with error saying some previous dates were closed and i used to closed the previous periods by tcode mmpv and bring it to the present date. but this is the first time when i am seeing that the present period is closed . . i tried with omsy and mmrv also. but i dont know what to do now. how can i open current months posting. i am in sd. dont have much idea about what mm guys do. please help .

Hi Seema,
In general, after creating ES, Cstmr,Matrl we need to execute MMPV before posting material. But in your case the periods are already closed, could be bcz some FICO consultant might have worked on it. But in order to resolve your problem u give a try to following prcdr.
Go to TCode OB52 [Posting Periods] and in the EIGHT column under heading YEAR change it to 2007 for the ROW "+"[Account Type]. Then proceed to MB1C.
In addition to this U may come across No. Range issue for which U uses TCode-FBN1; here for the current Yr. [2007] U have to give the No. Range for the interval appearing in the Error, eg 49,50,51...
Still if the problem persists consult a FICO for some alterations on the same screen [TCode-OB52].
Hope it might help U and reply the same to me
Regards.

Impacts in COPA of changing material and customer master data

Dear experts,
In my company we are considering following scenario:
Currently mySAPerp 6.0 is implemented for all modules for the mother company.
We have developed a new global template where there are significant changes versus the existing system, especially in the SD processes. Material and customer master also change significantly in terms of content in the tables/fields and/or values in the fields.
The idea was to build the template from scratch in a new machine and roll-out all group affiliates, but now we are considering the possibility of making an evolutionary of the current system and try to stretch it to the processes defined in the global template.
The scenario we want to analyze is: Keeping same organizational structure in terms of Company code, CO area and Operating Concern in existing SAP client and make an evolutionary of the existing settings to the global template processes.
The doubts we are having are the following:
Changing material & customer master data: Impact in COPA
Option 1: Material master data and customer master data codes are maintained but content in the tables/fields is changed substantially, both in terms of logical content of specific fields and/or the values in the specific fields. We have following examples of changes.
Case 1: source field in material master changes logical content. E.g. Material master field MVGR1 is currently used for product series (design line) and the content changes to be the Market Segment. The product series will be moved to a classification field. At least 5 other fields are affected by this. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Case 2: the source field is not changed so that the logical content of the field remains but the values change, i.e. for the same concept there will be different codifications. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Case 3: Characteristics where currently the source material master field is a Z field and the derivation is via table look up and where the Z field changes to a classification field. How can you convert the existing COPA line items to ensure that attributes are aligned? Should new characteristics be created or just change the derivation logic of the characteristic?
Option 2: Material master data and customer data codes are re-created (codification of records is changed), meaning that new material and customer codes will exist and content in tables/fields is changed (as in option 1)
Case: material and customer codes are changed. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Iu2019ve never phased a similar scenario and I fear that maintaining operating concern while changing source master data and also SD flows (we have new billing types, item categories, sales doc. Types, order reasons) may lead to inconsistencies and problems in COPA.
I would like to ask you experts if you have come across a similar scenario and if from your experience, it is something feasible to do or there are many risks involved. What can be the impact of this scenario in existing Operating Concern for both option 1 and 2 and what would be the key activities to perform to adapt the existing operating concern. What will be the impact of the needed conversions on P&L reporting?
Sorry for the long story. I hope you can help me out.
Thanks and Regards,
Eric

Hi,
First i think you will need to test if it works for new COPA documents created via billing.
If it works fine then the issue is if you wish to apply these changes to the historical data already posted.
Normally there are transactions like KE4S where you can repost the billing document to COPA
However this may not be viable for bulk postings
You can perform realignment (KEND) but this only works at the PA segment level (table CE4XXXX)

Stock overview based on material and vendor combination

Hi Gurus,
I have a scenario, for three materials A , B, C was bought out from 5 vendor, how to display the stock with material and vendor combination. In client place, the three material (A , B,C) which were bought from same vendor are issued to cost center. Client wants to know the stock based on vendor.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
In my opinion you have the following options - basically:
1) Use different material numbers for the physically same material you procure from different vendors (this is the dummiest solution, not recommended)
2) MPN (manufacturing part number) - you use different material numbers corresponding to each vendor . But these materials will be lnked:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/75/ee15c655c811d189900000e8322d00/frameset.htm
3) Batch management
option1 - You apply a certain logic to batch numbers and based on batch number you can distinguish from which vendor the stock was procured.
option2 - You can also use "not speaking" batch number, but here it's more sophisticated to find out from which vendor it was procured
option3 - You can classify the batch and in one of the characteristics you can store the vendor's number
option4 - In the batch master (table MCHA) you can find a "vendor" field (MCHA-LIFNR) - using development you can populate this field at the time of GR
4) Split valuation - you can maintain separate valuation type for each vendor. I think it is recommended only if you want to manage the moving avarage price separately

Inspection characteristics based on material and goup counter

Hi,
Do we have some function module which would give us inspection characteristics based on material and group counter. I have gone through many posts in this regard but find answers to get inspection characteristics based on inspection lot number.
I do not want to get into quality at all. Is there a FM to get the inspection characteristics based on material and group counter or any related tables would be of gr8 help. T-code QP03 takes material and group counter as input and displays the inspection characteristics. Any input in this regard would be of great help.

Hi,
Use tables MMAPL , MAPL and PLMK as per your requirement.
Thanks,
Vijay
