Strategy for Stock Posting (Upload)

Hello Experts,
One of the clients business is having around 45000 materials belonging to spares. They have 1 plant and 20-30 storage locations.
Out of the total storage locations, around 15 are spares related.
So in this case, what should be the best strategy for stock upload:
1)One material document having 999 materials-1 plant - 15 storage locations???
OR
2)One material document having 999 materials-1 plant - 1 storage location???
OR
What else could be the best strategy. Can anyone suggest?
Regards
Mahesh

why do you need to have 999 items in a document?
having just one item per document makes migration much easier, maybe not faster, and it certainly creates much more documents. But believe me, 2 days working with the system and you have already more material documents than you created with the initial load, why trying to save ressources then with migration.
Espcially if you have to cancel something, e.g. if the price was wrong as you loaded the stock, then it is easier to cancel the document when there is only 1 item.

Problem in BAPI for stock posting from quality inspection to unrestricted usage

Hi all,
I am using BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE for stock posting from quality inspection to unrestricted usage Stock against quality inspection lot(not by MB1B) using mvt type 321.The material doc gets created by the BAPI,but actual stock posting is not taking place ie.the stock doesn’t get reflected in QA33/32 and QA11 also .Can any one suggest what must be wrong?The inputs given are as follows:
GOODSMVT_HEADER:
PSTNG_DATE =30/07/2014, DOC_DATE = 30/07/2014, REF_DOC_NO = INSP LOT NO.
GOODSMVT_CODE:
GM_CODE: ‘04’ .
GOODSMVT_ITEM:
MATERIAL = MATERIAL NO
PLANT = PLANTCODE
STGE_LOC = ‘WIP’
BATCH = BATCHNO
MOVE_TYPE = ‘321’
ENTRY_QNT = 100
ENTRY_UOM = ‘EA’
ORDERID = Prd ord no.
After executing this I used BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT also. I am able to see the posted qty in MMBE,but it is not reflecting in QA11/33/32.
Kindly help me.

Hi Naveen,
Thanks for the reply. Even after using FM QAVE_PROCESS_AUTO_UD,when i execute
BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE, the same thing is happening.I am unable to see the stock deducted in QA33.
Is there any input in the goods mvt bapi where we can provide inspection lot no since i believe that the goods mvt has to get connected with the inspection lot.

FIFO STRATEGY FOR STOCK REMOVAL

Dear Experts,
I have problem, I have assigned FIFO Stock Strategy for Stock Removal in all storage types, but I am facing problem when we recieve sales return (with reference to old sales order), our company wants that the removal of old sales return to be done first by system automatically, please confirm, how to achieve this.
Please help urgently.
Regards
Ishu

Hi
FIFO works on the GR date against the quant
You can use LS22 to 'change' the quant and in there you can change the GR date
The issue is that because you receive the stock in on say 01.03.2011 that becomes the GR date even if the stock is 6 months old
Therefore changing the GR date to say 01.06.2010 (or earlier than your existing stock) itmeans that it will get picked earlier
I hope that this helps

OBYC : Offsetting entry for stock posting (GBB) , VAX/ VAY

Dear Sapients,
Could you please tell me the difference of the account grouping VAX and VAY for GBB(Offsetting entry for stock posting)
SAP helps says:
VAX: for goods issues for sales orders without
account assignment object (the account is not a cost element)
VAY:for goods issues for sales orders with
account assignment object (account is a cost element)
But truly i still did not understand, could you pls explaing.
In my current scenario system asked me to maintain an entry for VAY, when we are trying to reverse a delivery(inter company) created for PO.
Thanks and Regards
Ravi

Dear Ravikanth
Account grouping code VAX is relevant when the sales order item does not carry costs and revenues. If the sales order item carries costs and revenues, account grouping code VAY is used.
Thanks

Offsetting entry for stock posting (GBB)

Hi
I want to know the practical application( where this comes) of posting entry for 'Offsetting entry for stock posting (GBB)' It will be appreciable if explained with example
regards
B Shar

Following are the possible scenarios;
o   Offsetting entry for stock posting (GBB)
    Offsetting entries for stock postings are used in Inventory
    Management. They are dependent on the account grouping to which each
    movement type is assigned. The following account groupings are
    defined in the standard system:
    -   AUA:     for order settlement
    -   AUF:     for goods receipts for orders (without account
        assignment)
             and for order settlement if AUA is not maintained
    -   AUI:     Subsequent adjustment of actual price from cost center
        directly
             to material (with account assignment)
    -   BSA:     for initial entry of stock balances
    -   INV:     for expenditure/income from inventory differences
    -   VAX:     for goods issues for sales orders without
             account assignment object (the account is not a cost
        element)
    -   VAY:     for goods issues for sales orders with
             account assignment object (account is a cost element)
    -   VBO:     for consumption from stock of material provided to
        vendor
    -   VBR:     for internal goods issues (for example, for cost
        center)
    -   VKA:     for sales order account assignment
             (for example, for individual purchase order)
-   VKP:     for project account assignment (for example, for
    individual PO)
-   VNG:     for scrapping/destruction
-   VQP:     for sample withdrawals without account assignment
-   VQY:     for sample withdrawals with account assignment
-   ZOB:     for goods receipts without purchase orders (mvt type
    501)
-   ZOF:     for goods receipts without production orders
         (mvt types 521 and 531)

Inbound delivery for stock posting

Dear gurus,
I have a requirement ,whenever stok posting is done in mb1c, it should ask for inbound delivery no.
Thanks.

Hi Juergen/Sandip,
We have material number and quantity in Warehouse Request.
But Warehouse Request has 'Locked" indicator and PPF actions tab at item details has no details and "Validations" tab shows
I have created "Packaging Specification" for this material but didn't pack. Do I need to pack it?
Please suggest.

Unable to change stock posting date at usage decision while inspecting HUs

If we were using materials without WMS it's simple: thereu2019s a button in the screen for stock posting by which we're able to change document date and posting date; but we're using WM and the screen is slightly different: the button I'm referring it's gone!
So, how to change the posting date at posting stock in QA11 when we're using handle units? Some end-user told me that in version 4.7 this was possible. I don't think so ...unless there was something customized at WM IMG...or maybe they were using a USER EXIT to bring a pop-up window for this (I'm starting to believe that this was implemented..). This is the first time I work with HUs, so I don't know how to manage this.
Anyone?
Seba

I solved it in this topic: Changing posting date at usage decision for handle units. How?

Inspection Lot with Zero stock posting qty

Dear QM Consultants,
We have come across following scenario,
1.     Repetitive manufacturing
2.     Material has inspection type 04 and Z04. Preferred inspection type is not ticked. Z04 inspection type has been assigned to inspection lot 04.
3.     Production GR done by 131 movement
4.     Inspection lot generated with reference to 131 movement type. Lot for inspection type 04 is created.
5.     Inspection lot qty in QA32 it shows correctly as that of GR qty.
6.     But when we click on UD, in stock posting tab, qty to be posted it shows as ZERO. So no qty is available for stock posting.
Has anybody came across such scenario? Is this any bug? Any SAP note for this?
Best Regards,
Anand Rao

Dear Sujit, Thanks for so prompt reply,
Basically this is a complex case,
1.     See we have set Posting Proposal in Usage Decision as u2018To unrestricted useu2019 in selected sets for usage decision. That means we need not every time go to stock posting tab. The moment we select ACC UD code it automatically posts the stock to unrestricted use.
2.     Now, what has happed, by 131 movement declaration, backflush happened with 261 movement for child parts.
3.     Inspection lots with inspection type 04 were created. (Here we did not note whether the stock was posted in quality inspection or in unrestricted use)
4.     Now the requirement is to cancel 131 movement document. Kindly note UD were not given up to this moment.
5.     Now through MFBF, user did document specific reversal. As a result of which and as per my knowledge 132 movement should happen and 262 should also happen. At the same time inspection lot status should be set to LTCA. But in actual case 132 movement happened and 262 did not. Surprisingly inspection lot did not set to LTCA status. It remained in REL mode only.
6.     After this document specific reversal, user gave UD to these inspection lots without noticing where the stock was lying.(in unrestricted or in quality inspection). So the lot status set to UD   ICCO SPCO STUP after giving usage decision.
7.     Now while doing reverse engineering that why 262 movement did not happen, we came to know that no 321 movement happened for the inspection lots which were generated with reference 131 movement document
8.     Also, qty to be posted it shows ZERO as explained in my earlier post.
9.     When we display 132 movement document through MIGO, in where tab it shows stock type as Quality inspection. That means stock was lifted from QI for 132 movement.
In short it cannot be predicted where the stock was actually posted whether in QI or in unrestricted use. But yes the post to inspection stock tick has been ticked in material master.
Can you help further in this regard?
Best Regards
Anand Rao

Then
I hv tried through QE02 but its showing:
Short term Inspection Completed.
All Insp.Completed.

Dear sujit,

Just want to know inspite of checking box for Long term planning in MIC also in Inspection plan.

Quality Stock Posting

Hi Friends,
How the stock quantity can move to quality stock if at the time of process order confirmation stock type is "unrestriced use" and at the time of good receipt for order also stock type is maintained as "unrestricted use" and saved. But inspection lot is created as stock relevent lot whereas in material master inspection setup "post to insp. stock" is unchecked (not active).
Is there any settings in QM that we can post the stock despite "post to insp. stock" is unchecked (not active)?
Thanks & Regards,
Neel.

Hi Neel,
If the stock of a material is in UR and inspection type is active for that material (but stock posting is not active), then this stock can be taken into QI using 322 movement by MB1B provided 08 inspection type is active along with 'Post to inspection stock'
And your this statement confuses me.
But inspection lot is created as stock relevent lot whereas in material master inspection setup "post to insp. stock" is unchecked (not active).
What do you actually intend to say by saying this?
Do you mean to say that you have not set 'Post to inspection stock' in material master but you see the tab for stock posting when you execute an inspection lot of this material in QA32 ??

Initial Stock Posting for Semi Finished Goods

Dear Friends,
I have a small doubt in Initial Stock Posting.
Is Initial Stock Posting for Semifinished Goods (HALB)?
Or Initial Stock Posting available only for Finished Products?
Please answer this.
Regards,
Rajesh L

Hi,
MB1C + 561 can be used for all of your goods from which you want to keep stock. So, raw materials, SFGs, FGs can be uploaded based on your business requirement.
Your material masters should be extended to the suitable organisational levels (plant, SLoc, WH), so suitable material master views should exist at proper organisational levels.

How to change the posting date in UD stock posting for a HU managed item?

Hi,
We are using Handling Unit managed items with QM activation. For a specific HU managed material, we wanted to post the stock on a previous date. We have created PO on a back date and made GR also on a back date. Now the problem is, the system has generated an inspection lot. Now while trying to do UD and stock posting, I do not see the "Doc" tab which we normally see in UD stock posting for normal inspection lots (non-HU managed items) for changing the date.
I don't see any other way to change the posting date for the HU managed item in UD stock posting. Anyone can help please?
Thanks & Regards,
Madhavan Krishnamoorthy.

I don't think you can.

How to find out a lot for a specific stock posting?

Dear Friends
In our system every day 3 times rej posting ( and ok qnty posting) is done and 3 lots are supposed to be cleared for 3 consecutive shifts A, B, C. Now I found on 2.9.2009, 4 rej postings are done in mb51, (The unmatched rej qntity is X) rej storage.But I found only three lots are cleared from qa32.
I found that none of these 3 lots have rej qnty/ok qnty as X
So there must be a fourth lot that was cleared on 2nd sep but created on some other date. Can u tell me how to find out this lot?
Can I find out inspection lot no from material doment created due to stock posting in mb51?
In qa32 we can find production order number, but can i find order confirmation number from qa32?
Thanks
Chandra

Hi Chandra
It is very muxh possible to view the Inspection lot from the Material document if know either through MB51 or MIGO
Enter material document number>at the bottom there is QTy tab>Here you will find "Status Gr Doc" Inspection lot.
Also
Just check the Material document's mvt type for Qty X it may not be 321.......Revert back
This document may be generated due to additional mvt done in US screen.
