Storage Location required entry in Material Master

Hi
My client requirement is, at the time of creation of Material Master, System will ask for Storage Location.Without Storage Location, Icann't create Material Master.
Even if I'll select Plant and Storage LOcation View & Warehouse View, System is not asking the storage Location.
Can anybody suggest me where I'll set the setting so that system will ask for Storage Location mandatory in Material Master.
Thanks & regards
PKB

Hi Raja,
Thanks for your reply.Before Posting the thread, I've already checked these Views what you told.But system is not asking me to enter storage location.
You can check in your system.
System only asking for plant not storage location.Even if we select warehouse view, system is not asking for Storage Location view.
Thanks & Regards

Making Issuing Storage Location" required entry

Hi,
I want to make "Issuing Storage Location" required entry only stock transport order. Our document type is ZUNS. Selection key is UBF.
In SPRO:
Material management --> PO -->Define screen layout at document level
I ve selected "UBF Stock transport order" document type. Selection group is supplying plant. Then I ve marked "Issuing Storage Location" as a required (mandatory) entry indicator.
Then I ve crated a stock transport order but Issuing Storage Location field is not mandatory. Is there another way make it required entry?

Hi,
I believe you will have to activate the settings for STO between storage location, in the setup stock transport order config, Set Up Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations, do the settings,read the IMG documentation if you need help in setting this up.

Sub storage location for Finished Goods Material

Hi MM Gurus,
In our organization, FG materials are physically stored under different sub areas, even though the same lies under single storage location in SAP. Currently the users are downloading the stock information into excel and allocating the mentioned physical storage areas
Since the option of creating further storage locations at the same level or going for warehouse management is not feasible for us, can we resolve this issue by going for any sub storage location (sub dividing the existing storage location into physically storage sub areas)?
Requst your valuable suggestions in this regard.
Thanks & Regards,
Vinod

Yes your requirement is possible and I have seen it working in one of our client. They named the sub storage location, as STORAGE BIN, and this storage bin data is stored in material master under storage location view. This input field is created with help of abap.
This way your storage location is distributed under sub storage locations namely storage bin, this way you can create areas of your storage location without turning on warehouse management and then assign materials to the storage location and then to storage bin, thus meeting your requirement.

Storage Location for NON valuated material in MIGO

Hi friends ,
I have created a purchase order for NON-Valuated material (UNBW) with Account Assignment "K".I did check the material type UNBW configuration where only Value Update is checked for my Plant.
Now at the time of MIGO , system is asking for Storage lcoation (mandatory) and after MIGO system also updates quantity in Storage Location entered in MIGO.
while in normal cases (like ROH material type) , if we create Account Assigned PO ( like K) , system neither ask for Storage lcoation at the time of MIGO , nor system updates Qty at any storage location.
As per my understanding , if we create Purchase Order with account assignment K , system updates value in consumption and doesn't update Qty in stock (although material is stockable) .....which is simply like immediately issue of material to cost center.
Therefore wondering why system is updating Qty for NON-VALUATED material.
Does non valuated material means , POST value to Cost center (for account assignment K) and Update Qty in stock ?
Like in case of Account Assignment , value gets charged to WBS and qty gets updated as special stock "project"
All replies are welcome .....
Regards
Shrey

By definition UNBW's are ony qty updating and have no value assoicated with them. Since the system needs to stock this qty somewhere it by deafult asks for a Sloc.

Hi
In SPRO in the Vendor Accounts -> Master Records go to Define Screen Layout per Company Code (Vendors) and go to W/holding tax data, w/h tax 2 and then make the required entry to W/holding tax cat., w/h tax 2

Avoiding non required view for material master

Hi,
If I do not wan to tuse all the views then how can avoid them at the time of creation of material.I mean system should only show me the views relevant for me.
What is the customization setting required to be done in IMG ?/
Thx in advance
Regards,
manOO

Hi Manoo,
1.
Material master creation activity is generally carried out by a central team.
The process flow is generally -
1.Creation of Basic data views,
2.Creation of other views (Like purchasing, Accounting etc)
So idelly i do not see any need to restrict views as the central team is generally aware of the process flow and responsibilities.
2. Alternatively, you can set "Default View" for any particular user ID.
From Consulting point of view, this should not lead to any development as this could be a matter of User discipline.
from OMS2 you can remove the view for a particular material type and which may not be correct.

Different Storage Location required for RGA

Hi,
My requirement is that whenever Returns is done for SO, different Storage location should default, which is currently not happening.
For ex - Standard Storage location(0001) is determined whenever SO is created but we want that different storage location(say 0096 which is created for Returns) should be determined whenever Returns is created.
For these I have made the following config settings :
Defined 1000(Shipping Point Std) which is assigned to Plant(BPX1)
Also 1100(Shipping Point for Returns) is assigned to Plant(BPX1)
Storage loc (0001- std) is assigned to Plant(BPX1) and warehouse no (BP1)
Storage loc (0096 - for Returns) is assigned to Plant(BPX1) and Warehouse no (BP1)
In OVL3 following settings done:
Shipping Point (1000) , Plant (BPX1) than storage loc - 0001(Std)
Shipping Point (1100) , Plant (BPX1) than storage loc - 0096(Returns)
Still when we are creating returns storage loc 0001 is defaulting in Returns and NOT 0096 (Which is my requirement).
Kindly advise which config settings are still missing to determine 0096 storage loc in RGA.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have ticked the Plant and movement type in OMJ8, but still same storage location is coming while posting the Returns.
Thanks

Hello All,
When create subcontracting PO, want to set the field of Issue storage location as mandatory.
I tried to find configuration "Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Order-->Define Screen Layout at Document Level", but there is not entry "Issue storage location" to set the screen layout field.
I searched previous threads, but only find some to mention issue storage location for STO. Now, I just use subcontracting PO that is same as NB document type.
Please your kind suggestion or any method to set Issue storage location as mandatory in PO.
Thanks very much!

After this setting, I can be find this storage location fields as Mandatory.

Open a storage location for a material

Hi,
how can I open a storage location for a material ?
Is also possible to do it automatically ?
Regards

A storage location is customizing, this is in general open to take any material.
depending on the customizing setting for Auto.create storage location you allow SAP to add the storage location view to your material master automatically with the first movement of a material to a storage location or not.
if you dont allow that, then you have to maintain the storage location view in material master manually for each storage location before you can post a movement for this material in a certain storage location.

hi there
You can use the transation MM01 for extend the material to an storage location, just go to mm01 give your material code go for organization elements mention your plant where you have already created the material and give the storage location in which you want to extend your material, after view selection when you will press enter the system will issue the message that material already exists and will be extended for say X storage location.
Even you can extend your material to an storage location using transaction MMSC by using materal code and plant combination.

MD04 - Display the stock on one storage location particulary.

The transaction MD04 allows seeing the stock of the plant in the first line of the Stock/requirement list.(MD04)
When the plant includes several storage location (e.g MAG1, MAG2, MAG3), we don't have the detail of the quantity one each storage location.
We can use the filter (by using SETTINGS and FILTER ON) that controls the display of the MRP list and the stock/requirements list but this function don't allows seeing only the stock on one storage location particulary. We have to go the tcode MMBE in order to know the stock on each storage location.
Thanks in advance for yours reply.

What is your real problem?
Display the stock storage location-wise is one thing and do MRP without certain storage location(s) (=exclude storage locations from MRP) might be another.
If you only want to display stock of certain storage locations in MD04 but use all you stock for planning, I think there's no reason for it.
If you really want to exclude certain storage locations, then you have to be aware that MRP won't consider that stock (for the plant segment). It will also have impact on ATP (atp won't use that stock too).
So, there's a big difference between exclude a storage location from MRP and to exclude its stock from display.
(You can exclude storage locations from MRP via material master --> MRP4 view --> you have to enter both plant/sloc as organisational level and you will see the suitable tab. It is also possible to control this indicator via config for to be created material masters - you can search and find threads)
You should describe your exact requirement and maybe forum mebers can give you advice.

Issue Storage Location in Components details Subcontracting PO

Hi all
I need to implement this process in SAP:
I have to send material X, from storage location B 'broken', to my supplier for repairing. After He has repaired it I post good recipe of material X in the storage location A 'adjusted'.
I plan material X through MRP at plant level only for storage location A.
In the material master I've set procurement type 'F' and Special Procurement '30'.
I created a recursive BOM for material X where I entered, for component X, B as issue storage location.
In this way MRP run (with '1' as value of 'Create PR' parameter) creates subcontracting PR with X as material to buy and X as component to send to vendor, but in the detail of component I have the storage location field kept empty.
This for me is a problem.
In fact when I create PO from this PR automatically through ME59 transaction, the System creates a requirement at plant level for component X.
But this requirement is for broken material and has to be covered by stock in storage location B.
I know that is not easy to understand all the details of this process, even due to my english, but I hope someone can help my.
Please if you need a clear up, ask me.
Thanks for your help
Yours faithfully
Paolo Verderio

Hi Paolo,
don't worry. Your explanation is well understandable.
I cannot advise how to fix the problem with the missing storage location. I just have some doubts that it is the right approach to distinguish between an boken and a repaired material by storage location. Even for stock valuation there is certainly a difference between both, that you can't make transparent by storage location, and also if you look at your available stocks.
I would recommend to have either different materials or different valuation types. I have to confess that I am not sure that valuation types would help for your subcontracting PO.
best regards,
Udo

Storage location missing in Inbound delivery

Hi ,
When I am getting the ASN or confirmation for my purchase order.
automatically Inbound delivery is getting created.
But here the problem is missing the storage location in inbound delivery.
I maintained the storage location determination (with situation) setup.
could you please help me.

The entry in OMB2 indicates that automatic creation of storage location data in the material master record at the time of the <b>first goods receipt</b> is allowed.
As well the storage location data is only created automatically if the quantity is posted to the "normal" storage location stock. If you have goods movements to special stock (for example, to sales order stock), the data is not created.
To my knowledge the PO generally does not have storage locations,while creating inbound delivery (manually or automatically) storage locations are copied from the material master. So, also check what S.loc. your material master has for the materials you are creating inbound deliveries.

PATHIK
