Subcontracting (Multiple Vendors Involved) and Production Version's

Hello all,
I would like to know more about this stuff. So do share your valuable thoughts.
I was trying out a sub contracting scenario with multiple Vendors and Production Versions involved. The production version is designated in such a way that lot size/quantity of the requirement determines which of the available version's to be taken into consideration whilst generating procurement proposal via MRP.
#1. Production Version:
5 Version's of the BOM are assigned to various lot sizes.
#2. I had 5 different info records created for the material-Vendor combination. Each one of them were assigned with a Prod version to it.
Sample:
#3. Post these settings i had a MRP run executed. Well !!! the results were different off-course. I neither did see the procurement proposals classified based on the prod version nor the first prod version assigned to the procurement proposals ( i meant i had a different prod version(version 4) assigned to the procurement proposals generated).
Questions:
#1. Well the first thing that did strike my mind was how could i get the source list work for such scenario's ? I guess i can't go with quota arrangement coz which would split the procurement proposals into many halves and assign's it accordingly to the vendor.
#2. How come production version 4 given the top priority here ?
Source List state:
                         a. I had an item (tried the others as well) checked with fixed vendor indicator but the info record of the material-vendor combination had a different Prod. Version in it (well not PR4, i can guarantee you on that)
                         b. I had nothing marked with fixed vendor indicator. Results post MRP still did pick the same prod version (Version 4).
#3. Last but not the least how can i get this thing to work ?
Please do help out.
PS: MRP 4 selection Method: 2 - Selection by Prod.Version

Rahul

Hello Rajen,
Well as per your comment "
Regarding the splitting, Not Always.
There are two types of quota arrangement - Allocation quota and splitting quota."
so meaning that allocation quota doesn't split the procurement proposal is it ? If so how are they assigned to vendors ? any other criteria being used up here
Anyhow i had a new lot size method created with the splitting quota field unchecked. So how do i proceed from here ? meaning that how should i manage my quota file to not have my procurement proposals split ?
Please do help out.
Regards,
Rahul

Hello,
Exactly which USB device are you referring to? Is the device a NI product?
The Product ID for National Instruments DAQPad-6020E is 0x12C0. The USB vendor ID is 0x3923. This is a 16-bit hexadecimal number(1093) (that is decimal 4243).
Also, here's a document on our website that will help you in configuring NI-VISA to control your USB device:

ME51N subcontracting don't include the production version of info record

Dear guru ,
After assigning source of supply in a subcontracting purchase requisition the system donu2019t read the production version of info record from the combination of vendor and material.
Itu2019s right this behavior ?
Thanks

For a Purchase requisition it is not possible to determine the correct Product Version, even the Vendor is specified. It will just pick the first valid version it can find.
When creating the Purchase Order from this Requisition, you will get a pop-up which allows you to let the "correct" production version overwrite the one coming from the Requisition. This is the case, when you create a PO with a vendor that has a different production version assigned in its info record as it is included in the Requisition.

Costing variant and production version

We have two costing variants "C" (used to create current cost estimates) and "F" (Used to create Future cost estimate). All of the production versions in the system have a validity date of 9999. Is there a way to tell the system to use one production version when costing using Variant C and another version when costing is done using variant F.
Or if that is not possibel than how do we use one production version in 2011 while recosting current standards and another production version in 2012. (Remember the production version that we are using currently in 2011 has a validity date of 9999)
Regards

Hi
In your Costing Variant - You have a tab callled "Qty Structure Control".... Here you can specify BOM Determination and Routing Selection id.... i.e. If the BOM / Routing attached to the prod version can be assigned a specific BOM Determination Class and Routing Selection id, it can work
OR ELSE
While doing CK11N, you can manually specify the Prod Version in the "Qty Struct" Tab..... Create an LSMW for CK11N and you can do a mass costing like CK40N.... CK40N does not have this option of specifying Prod Version
I would prefer 2nd option

REM Product cost collectors and Production version

Hi All,
Can some one pls let me know
What are the product cost collectors in REM and how to create the product cost collectors ?
What is the production version and the difference between production version and controlling version?
Thanks & Regards,
Bujji

Dear Bujji,
A product cost collector is a cost object in Product Cost by Period that collects the periodic actual costs incurred in the production of a material. It can be created in txn KKF6N.
[Product Cosr Collector|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
[Product Cost Collectors: Collective Entry for Repetitive Manufacturing |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/08/77ba810a1611d3a6b900104b55d538/frameset.htm]
A production version determines the various production techniques that can be used to produce a material. It defines the following information:
Alternative BOM for a BOM explosion
Task list type, task list group, and group counter for assignment to task lists
Lot-size restrictions and period of validity
A material can have one or more production versions.
It can be defined in the Material Master (txn MM02) in one of the following views:
MRP 4
Work Scheduling
Costing 1
The costing version is a different issue. It is a costing parameter and is used to save several cost estimates for the same material, with the same costing variant and the same costing date (e.g. in oder to cost the material several times with minor changes without creating new costing variants).

Costing and Production Version

I am doing a costing run for material that has more than one production version defined for it. I want the costing run to pick up by default a prod version that we want to use for costing. However, it does not pick that up by default and instead we have to manually assign it in CK11n. Is there any way to make that Production Version default in the costing run. Please let me know. Thank you

Hi,
You can maintain the default Production version in Material Master - Costing1 View, under Quantity Structure section.
Hope this helps... Reward your points,

NA KOSA012 and Product Version deletion

Good Day
I have an issue when trying to delete a production version from the material master.
The SAP message NA KOSA012 appears explaining that the version can not be deleted. I have checked the settings which the note suggests and everything appears to be correct. There are no open production orders in WIP either.
I have never had this issue before when trying to delete a version
Any idea's?

Capaity levelling and production version

Dear SAPper,
I curious about somecases in levelling.
My client got 8 machine work center and they aware of capacity
I create eight produciton version.
MRP always put new planned order to first production order.
After that my client would like to do capacity levelling.
The problem is although they assign to other machine but the production version is not change
leaving inconsistency of production version and new work center after capacity levelling
is there any way we can capacity levelling considering produciton version too?
Please kindly help.
Best regards,
Freddy Ha

Dear Freddy,
1.The system always picks up the first production version as a default,if more than one more production
version exists for the same lot size,validity dates.
2.Either you have to lock the production versions so that the system picks up the open production
version or maintain different validity dates or Lot size.
3.I'm not sure whether the system considers the prod version also during capacity leveling.

CO41 and production version

I am converting planned orders to production orders using CO41. Is there a way I can get the production version field to appear on the CO41 output screen so that like other fields I can change it before pressing the 'convert' button
thanks a bunch

Dear John,
In my understanding it is not possible in standard SAP.
If you have manual selection of production version and if you have set the BOM selection method as 2 in
MRP 4 view of the material master then,
1.If you create a production order manually then the system displays the pop up to select a production
version.
2.If you are converting the planned order into a production order then it picks up the one which is
present in the planned order.So obviously if 2 production versions are there with same lot size and
validity dates,then the system picksup the first one only during MRP run.
Even if it picks up the first prod.version in planned order,but while converting click on master data and
change the production version if required.
3.Otherwise what you can do is set the production version in MD61 itself ,so that its going to be
considered during MRP run and same will be included in the planned order.
Check and revert back.

Process single chq for Multiple Vendor Invoice and other Non-Vendor GL

Hello Experts,
Scenrio :
In most of the cases, Vendors of our client have the same Banks as that of our client. our client provides facilty to thier Vendors by depositing chqs in thier account upon due date.
Procedure :
I want to process a manual transaction (with a single chq for intra-bank transfer). the total amt on chq would be the total of selection of several invoices & some other payable GLs.
Query :
which T-Code should i use & how do i proceed.

Hi Hussein Merchant ,
For your requirement you have to do single payment at F-53.There you need to select Other account check box at open item selection.Give the all open item vendor codes and get a cleared document number.
Go to FCH5 and assign manual single check here
May be this information is useful to you
If you have any doubt feel free to ask

Do I need multiple Vendor ID and device ID ?

Hi
I am developing a Compact PCI/ PXI card. Will I need a different DEVICE ID for each card, so that Labview can recognise between two cards. Is the distinction between two cards having the same vendor ID done on the basis of Device ID's or is it done on the basis of the slot it is in.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Sincerely,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments. If you are developing a Compact PCI / PXI card or a PCI card, it should have the same vendor ID and the same device ID. In order to differentiate in LabVIEW between two cards of the same model, the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) will provide an alias or device name to NI hardware (e.g. Dev1, Dev2). However, this is specific to NI hardware only.
You can differentiate between your custom card by looking at the slot number it is in, or perhaps by looking at information on your card such as the serial number or reading information off of the EEPROM.
I hope this helps. There are some other discussion forum posts that may help more too, which I've linked here.

Generating a Vendor UUID and Product ID

I understand the concept of UUID and a product ID, but I don't know in practice how to go about getting one. I'm working on making an appliance for my company, and let me preface this by saying I'm not a developer, and I'm wondering if a vendor UUID would be unique thoroughout the entire company and if this is registered somewhere so can find it.
I see websites that offer to generate you a free unique ID but can I just use anyone that I want? How could I find out if we have one?
As for the product ID, I assume in that case I can just randomly generate one, correct?

The message means that the computer is searching for a Canon scanner that isn't connected, msalzberg (or, at least, the Canon "Button Manager" software is looking for it).
See http://josh.corduroy.biz/2005/12/07/canon-scanner-error-messages/
It is not likely to be related to your shutdown issues, though, I fear.
A power supply problem is much more likely to be the cause of your shutdowns. It should be covered by one of the the Apple extension repair programs if your are out of warranty .
