Stock Management and stocking units

Good morning,
We need to manage item stocks in two units: kilograms and item units. (kilograms to stock valuation, but units to count the items). For instance, when performing a delivery (sales), we need to issue item units, but the price the items have to place depends on the kilograms of the items (not on the number of units).
Is a standard way in SAP to do this?
I have tried with factors (in item master data) and too Sales UoM at Sales Data in the item master data, but no way. It seems to me strange that SAP cannot do that.
Thank you very much for your help.

  • Yard Management and Handling Unit Management

    I am configuring yard Management in ECC6.0 for a LSP business. Ecc 6.0 is standard and not LSP sepcific industry.
    Requirement is :
    Track the Container once unloaded at the Port with its content - This I have mapped as HU management.
    Recieve the Container at the Freight Forwarder (FF) Whse and perform Check In activity. .
    Ability to issue Gate Pass once vehicle arrives at the ,FF whse.
    Keep track of inventory of Containers by Shipping Line.
    Recieve Empty containers from Shipping line.
    Know the container as to how long it has been at the FF Whse to bill the Shiping line for Storage charges of the Container.
    Solution concept:
    I am thinking that this will be used with HU management and Yard Management. Only doubt I have is that whether Yard Management will track my Containers or Not. The Gate Pass Issued by Yard Management is for the Vehicle and not the Container.
    Any inputs will be highly appreciated
    Thanks
    Raj

    Hi Rajeev,
    Thanks for the Answer. yes, I need reports to Track the Container by Freight Forwarder ie if a Container belongs to P&O Nedlyod shipping line then I should get the details of teh same . Also Empty Container comes in and then its loaded with Outbound delivery. I am putting the container number in the Container field when we do the check in and putting the forwarding agent as the respective shipping line that way I will know how many container of different size of Forwarder is in my Yard.
    Also client wants a way to create a Container Master ie The shipping line gives a list of Empty containers which are lying at the Port. Only when the client needs the containers , he will ask for the same with the shipping line.Not sure is there any standard way of handling this in Yard Management. I am more inclined to make a Z Table to store this data.
    Also in the process once I have the container in the Yard , I need to stuff this container with Deliveries. I am planning to Pack the Delivery goods on a Pallet and then Pack this Pallet on to the Conatiner. I am doing this via VL02n transaction . I was somehow unable to locate the Container by Conainer ID when I need to stuff the same in VL02N. Maybe I am missing something or is the data not available? If not , then I plan to get the same by means of some user exit on the HU side ie Check for a HU which is Empty and has the type 20 feet or 40 feet as the case may be and show a Pop up of the same and let user select the COntainer in which he needs to pack the Pallets.
    Any pointers will be highly appreciated.

  • The Question about stock transfer between HU-Management and WM-Management

    Hi,
    There is a scenario about stock transfer between HU-Management and WM-Management storage location. I use transaction MB1B , movement type 313 , 315. After Good issue from WM-management storage location, outbound delivery will genarated, then Pack, Create/Confirm TO, at last post goods issue for the outboud delivery. But when i do movement type 315, there is a warning message "Data of preceding document was not transmitted", and from the F1 help i find this system reponse "You can maintain an indicator that makes information about preceding documents in this delivery available under delivery type in Customizing. For some characteristics of this indicator, the type of preceding document and the related document and item numbers must be transmitted to delivery creation. At least one of these parameters is missing.".
    So, My questions are:
    1. Generallily, Outbound delivery is created by SO, inbound delivery is created referenc PO, but how the stock transfer for 2 steps generate the outbould delivery and inbound delivery? Could you pls tell me the where i can config this in the IMG?
    2. What's "Data of preceding document was not transmitted" mean ? how to fix this issue ?

  • How to set up Batch Management and stock determination ?

    Our client deals in various food articles and wish to use batch management and shelf life functionality.
    Details are
    While doing the goods receipt, batch no. as supplied by vendor will be entered. There is no requirement of batch no. generation. Thus batch no. as supplied by vendor will be used for identifying the stock. It will be also having fix shelf life and will be entered while doing the goods receipt. Now at the time of goods issue for consumption, or stock transfer to other plant system should propose the batch no. for material which will be having earliest expiry date (For ex. on 15.01.2010 we receive the goods with batch no ABC having expiry date as 31.03.2010 and we receive another lot on 20.01.2010 with batch no. XYZ having expiry date on 25.03.2010, then while doing the goods issue for consumption or stock transfer, system should propose the lot with batch no. XYZ and not ABC). How to achieve this?
    As I am new to batch management please provide detail configuration steps for batch management and stock determination. We are not using warehouse management.
    Thanks in advance,

  • **Batch managed and serial number managed partial stock bin 2 bin transfer

    Hi Experts,
    I have my stock which is batch managed and also serial number managed. Now if i want to perform partial stock transfer from one bin to another i use LT01 with movement type 999 i am able to see the batch (suppose i just want to transfer material 1 of batch # 100). This batch # 100 has 10 materials with different serial numbers. But when i use LT01 i can see the batch of the material but not the specific serial number of the material that i am transferring.
    My question----- Is there any specific transaction where i can also see the serial number of that material that i am transfering to another bin or is it some thing that needs to be customized?

    Hi ,
    Just check with Tr.Code  : 'IQ09'

  • MTS with batch management, serialization and Handling unit

    Hello All,
    I am testing a scenario for MTS with batch management, serialization and Handling unit for discrete manufacturing.
    Everything worked fine till I created the Handling unit for the finished product.
    The production order has a quantity of 3 EA.
    It has three serial numbers 1, 2 and 3. (serial numbers can be displayed from order->Header->serial numbers)
    I created one Handling unit for production order quantity of 3 EA.
    I tried to do a goods receipt for the production order using transaction COWBHUWE.
    I get the following error when I try to post the GR:
    Only 0 serial numbers entered instead of 3
    Message no. IO304
    Diagnosis
    There is a serial number obligation, so the number of serial numbers must equal the number of serial numbers in the material document.
    You can post the operation only if you entered the correct number of serial numbers previously.
    System Response
    Depending on the context in which the error arises, the system continues processing, or the required function cannot be performed.
    Procedure
    You have the following options, for example:
    Check that the serial numbers are entered fully.
    If necessary, display an error log.
    If necessary, contact your system administrator.
    What did I miss?
    How to fix this problem?
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance
    George

    I added the serialization procedure HUSL to the serial number profile and it fixed the problem.

  • Handling Unit Management and supply areas with WM/control cycles

    Dear all,
    has anyone come across the issue how to handle a replenishment process for production with supply area within WM and Handling Unit Management?
    Normally a supply area is being staged via control cycles. in the supply area, all storage units get lost (standard functionality as far as I know). When we post the GI, the components will be taken out of the supply area, backflushing is not allowed as far as I know.
    Now: what happens if HUM is switched on? Do we have to enter a HU for these GI's as well? Or does the supply area  keep the information of the SU/HU? I want to avoid that the users have to tell the system the HU no. for every screw they take/consume...
    Thanks & regards
    Christian

    Hi,
    (as already described,)
    it is possible to use handling unit management together with lean        
    warehouse management. You activate handling unit management independent  
    from storage unit management (that is only possible in case of full-WM   
    as far as I know).                                                       
    Only in case if storage location is full-WM- AND HU-managed the storage  
    unit management is always active and HU numbers are taken over as SU     
    numbers. In all other cases HUM and SUM are independent from each other  
    and number ranges must be set a way that they are not overlapping.

  • MSS Time sheet appearing to reporting Manager and Unit Head

    Hello Experts,
    We are implementing MSS in project and we are facing a problem:
    - We have Org structure
    Unit Head (chief Position)
    ^
    Asst Manager (not a chief postion) reports to Unit Head
    ^
    Associates (not a chief postion) reports to Asst manager
    Now when employees goes and submits his time sheet it appears correctly to Asst Manager  in MSS Time sheet Approval by Line Manager.
    Now the problem is that Associate's time sheet is also appearing to Unit Head. Incase Unit head selects it and approve, it will get approved which is incorrect. The Associates time sheet should only appear to Asst Manager not to Unit Head.
    Please help us how we can resolve this problem.
    thanks
    venkat

    As per your scenrio time sheet approval only for one level only. In workflow try to use logic A002 relation ship (Reports to). That means employees reporting manager.
    Discuss the same with your workflow consultant they will help you. Whoever is submit time sheet & it will go to employee line manager using A002 Relation ship.

  • To print transfer order and storage unit labels in lt31

    Hi SAP Gurus
    1>Is it possible to print Transfer order and Labels simultaneously in tcode LT31(At a time when LT31 is executed
    If yes please guide me the selection parameter in Tcode LT31 and if any configuration required in the background
    2>Is it possible to print Transfer order and storage unit labels automatically when MIGO is posted.what are the settings required
    My client raised a query that before he was able to print both once Migo is posted .But now only trnasfer orders is getting printed but not SU.
    Requesting to help in this issues
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    chandu

    you need to define the print control parameter in the customizing and whether you can print both(SU & TO) is depend on the print code which you specify in the setting under
    LE----WM---Activities-----Define print control
    After MIGO are you transferring the stock to SU managed storage type , as per STANDARD SAP stock goes to 902 which is Non SU managed so here you need to tell us the flow and the storage type where stock goes after MIGO also is that storage type is SU managed or not

  • Base and alternate unit of measure  - Per PO conversion

    Hi,
    Here is my problem :
    I buy let's say 100 M of Configurable Material A, the weight  Stock unit (KG) is expected 50 .
    Now buy another 100 M of Configurable Material A, the weight  Stock unit (KG) is expected 100 . because of a slightly configuration change.
    I which I can change the conversion between Buying Unit and Stock Unit on the PO itself ( UMREN - UMREZ ) depending on the user input or config changes (feg dependency like we do on sales).
    I didn't find the right zone to unlock these two fields  in the "SPRO  ... Define screen layout at doc level" , and I am not sure it is the right way to reach my goal.

    Hi,
    BASE UOM is the unit of measure which will be used by business to calculate the weight of the goods or rather the Unit of measure in which stocks of the material are managed.
    Say for example I create one bulb. The base UOM is PCE or Piece.
    It means that the Bulb will be referred to as 1 Piece irrespective of its weight.
    So if in the sales order i put 10 PCE of Bulb it means 10 individual unit of the bulb.
    Alternative UOM is the Unit of measure in which quantities can be entered alternatively to the base unit of measure / stockkeeping unit.
    Say for example in our cases; we are selling these bulbs in boxes.
    I BOX = 10 PCE .
    So BOX becomes your alternate UOM.
    The relation is maintained in MARM table via the additional view in the Material Master (MM01/ MM02/ MM03 transaction)
    The relation 1 : 10 is managed by the UMREN UMREZ fields in MARM.
    I hope this is useful for you.

    HI,
    can anyone please tell me
    1) what is base unit of measure and alternate unit of measure.
    2) what is the relationship between these two.
    i have one program which currently calculates base unit of measure for all the unit costs and now i need to calculate the alternate unit of measure for all the unit cost
    I heard that relationship of these two will be found in MARM table but i couldnt find it
    Please tell me how do i do achieve it.

  • Batch Management and Others

    Dear Experts,
    Client system is already having some materials.From these 100 materials ,we would block the 99 materials and the rest material(say X) will be managed in batches.To do this I have thought in the following way:
    1.Posting stock to the  the material X through material to material transfer.
    2.Activate deletion flag to the 99 materials and change the deletion flag message type to Error message from the warning.
    3.Blocking the transaction of these materials for two to three hours.
    4.Create a new material and manage it with batch with classification.(say Y)
    5.Material to material stock tranfer from X to Y.
    6.Change the BOMs where these 99 materials were used.
    7.Material assignment to routing operation does not require change as components were assigned to operation through default first operation,which will be managed by the system itself when I change the BOM.
    Anything more I require to plan..Pl advice
    Regards
    Reshmi

    Dear Rupesh,
    My req is I would like to remove the redundant materials, instead I shall manage these materials through a single material by batch management with classification.but the materials are already in the system without batch management.So until or unless i remove the stock ,the material can not be batch managed.And to remove all materials by a single materials I require the existing stocks of the materials to be updated with the single material,which can be done through material to material transfer.I think I have cleared the issue.
    Regards

  • Difference between inventory management and warehouse management

    can any body tell me the difference between inventory management and warehouse management i need atleast five differences

    hi
    1.
    Processes in the area of Inventory Management address the recording and tracking of materials on a quantity and value basis. This includes planning, entry, and documentation of stock movements such as goods receipts, goods issues, physical stock transfers, and transfer postings as well as the performance of physical inventory (stocktaking).
    Warehouse Management Processes cover warehouse-internal movements and storage of materials.
    2.
    SAP Warehouse Management allows you to manage your material flow, using advanced putaway and picking strategies. In the standard system, these strategies for putaway include random putaway (next empty bin), bulk storage, fixed bin, or addition to stock. The picking strategies include standard strategies first-in first-out (FIFO), last-in first-out (LIFO), picking by shelf life expiration date (SLED), or partial quantities first. For customer-specific strategies, solutions can be self-defined in user exits.
    3.
    While Inventory Management manages the stocks by quantity and value, the Warehouse Management component reflects the special structure of a warehouse, and monitors the allocation of the storage bins and any transfer transactions in the warehouse.

  • Batch  Management and serial Number Management

    Hi Friends,
    I have a an issue.
    We are using Batch management and serial number for few materials.
    While selecting F4 for checking available batch numbers and serial numbers during issues , transfer posting,stock transfer etc.., system dispalys all Batches/Serial numbers which are created for that particular material. i.e all Batches and serial numbers irrespective of whether there are stocks available , whether they are cancelled/deleted will appear in the list
    Our requirement is when F4 is selected system should list only live/existing batch numbers and serial numbers of that particular material.
    Can any one help us
    Thx
    Deva

    Hi Ramesh,
    Thanks for your input.
    However my requirement is instead of going to separate T.code IQ09 , user wants to list the existing Batch/Ser no details while selecting F4 during issues
