Subcontracting process - goods receipts

Hi guys,
While doing MIGO for sub-contracting orders, the components provided to the vendor will automatically come in MIGO with 543 and 545 movements. But the user can edit the quantity of these components.
Our requirement is that we have to block users changing the quantity of these components and selection of the items shall also be made mandatory.
How to configure this?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Why do you want to block a standard function that is normally required?
Surely your users have some intelligence and if they are asked NOT to change the contents they can do as they are told?
Please don't try to turn the SAP system into a policeman, there may be occasions where ou need to use this function and blocking it off can only have a negative effect.
Modifying the system when it is absolutely necessary is something that should be avoided but has to happen occasionally.
I would never recommend modifying the system 9which is the only way to axchieve this) to stop users in this way. Why would they WANT to change it if they didn't have to? Why are they changing it now? Can't you just tell them not to?

Production operation external processing goods receipt for subcontract PO

Hi PP/MM experts,
I searched for existing forum entries but no luck or final answer.
I have a question about the goods receipt for a subcontracting PO that is account assigned to an operation of a production order (external processing for operation).
The following situation:
Production order type PP02 - external processing
There is only one operation in the production order with control key PP02 - external processing. I marked the control key PP02 in configuration for 'Automatic goods receipt'.
I created a PO for the PR is the operation
When I'm doing the goods receipt of the subcontrating PO a 101 posting is triggered for the finished product and components are consumed by 543 O movements. So far so good. But the inventory for the finished style is not increased. In MIGO I even see that even a batch number for the finished product is determined. Looks like that only the service is posted but not the inventory. I assumed when I mark the operation contol key for 'goods receipt' that the MIGO will also post the inventory for the finished style.
Reason for PP order and not only subcontract order is that we want to manage capacities of external suppliers with PP capacity planning.
Is that a bug in our system or normal behaviour? We use SAP ERP 6.5 with IS AFS.
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Best Regrads,
Harry

Hi Rizzi and all others,
thanks for your replies.
I'm using a production order for the following reasons:
We want to use capacity planning for external suppliers. At least to have some overview of work they have to do in a month
The external assembly can also be changed to internal assmebly and for that reason we will start always with the same kind of document -> production order.
But one more thing what is really confusing. In the materials document list MB51 the 101 movement for the service is listed even if the inventory was not increased. That is really confusing for the users.
Best Regards,
Harry

Checking"ok "made mandatory for subcontracting po goods receipt

Dear Experts,
while making goods receipt against subcontracting PO,user mistakenly unchecked the OK the for the components.
and posting the documents.due to this consumption is not updated with 543 movement , but finished product is updated.
its leading to stock imbalances in our system,like not showing reduction in vendor stock,no updation of consumption stock please advise me.

Hi Madhu,
This is for only child parts in subcontracting , Child parts will come only in Subcontracting right.
Process steps
Enter transaction code MIGO then go to standard variant in that click on standard variant enter something like zmigo
and click on create , enterr short text
It will goes to transaction skip copy settings and enter till lost next click on where you want modification this timeskip all except required screen (The screen number may be 220) select w.content and out put only enter short text and save
Then activate in standard variant and check

Accounting postings for subcontract PO goods receipt

Hi,
Can someone please explain the accounting postings that occur when a subcontract PO is received? I understand the usual inventory and GR/IR account entries. But there are 2 additional account entries for transaction keys FRL and BSV. These appear to be posted for the material being received, not the one being supplied to vendor (this one is $0 in our system).
Thanks in advance,
-Den

When you post a GR for the ordered material (the end product), the system determines the components and creates a goods issue item for each component. The GR document consists of the following items:
1.Goods receipt items for the materials supplied by the vendor
2. Goods issue items for the components
Here is a link that explains the postings

Down Payment clearing at the time of Goods Receipt

Dear All,
We have activated the setting "Configure Automatic clearing of Down Payments". We are entering down payment in PO and while processing Goods Receipt system is generating automatic down payment clearing document. The issue is the document posting with GR/IR line items are not updating in the FM report FMRP_RFFMEP1AX. The Goods receipt line item is picking the account assignments like Fund center etc are updated based on PO account assignments because we are referring PO while doing down payment. The invoice also created with GR/IR line item and these line items are also updated in FMRP_RFFMEP1AX report. So the line items against GR/IR are part of consumption of budget. The consumption amount does not contain GR/IR line item while doing goods receipt but invoice GR/IR line is part of consumption of budget. As a result, the GR/IR line item is not nullifying the consumption of budget and is adding to the consumption in addition to the expense line item in goods receipt. So its consuming budget twice.
The issue is GR/IR line item while doing goods receipt is not part of consumption of budget even though the GR/IR line item created in the Goods receipt document. At the same time the GR/IR line item in invoice line item is part of consumption of budget. Please let me know the reason why the GR/IR line item in Goods receipt is not updating in the report.

Quality Management During Goods Receipt (Inspection Lot)

Hi all,
>>>>>>>>>>>>
REQUIREMENT
<<<<<<<<<<<<
I have a requirement that i need to write an interface program which will receive a file from external agency (manufacturer) and process goods receipt until inspection results. The following steps need to be taken care of;
1) Create a equipment (Utilities - It is an unique identifier for each unit of the material).
2) Do Goods Receipt for the PO with the equipment numbers created.
3) Create Inspection Lot for the material document created during the GR for each equipment number.
4) Execute Inspection Result.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
INFO NOW
<<<<<<<<<<<<
Inspection lot can be created from MIGO directly by SPRO config and MM master data maintenance.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
DONE
<<<<<<<<<<<<
Called BAPI to create Equipment.
Called BAPI to create Goods Receipt.
Inspection Lot Settings to create lots during MIGO
1) New Inspection Type Created as SG1 at SPRO->QM->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Maintain Inspection types. The maintenance is a copy of type 01.
2) Assign Inspection Type to Lot Origin at SPRO->QM->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Maintain Inspection Lot Origins and Assign Inspection Types. SG1 is maintained against lot origin 01 with variant 01.
3) Set Default values for SG1 at SPRO->QM->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Define Default Values for Inspection Type with parameters same as for 01.
4) In Material master for the record set the inspection setup in the quality management tab. put SG1 as active and preferred. Also set Post to insp Stock, Insp with task list, Auto Assign, Skips allowed, Serial Numbers poss, Control Insp lot as For each Material Doc Item.
I have to kow how to select the Inspection Plan for the lot and thus set the status of lot to released and get it ready for results.
I also have BAPI ready for Inspection Result.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
TESTING
<<<<<<<<<<<<
I have tested it and was working fine till last thursday. I have the above mentioned settings even now in the system. Can there be anything else which the functional consultants would have change that affected the process. Anyways now the inspection lot is not getting created for the Inspection during MIGO and I am really struggling to find the exact reason.
For your info, I am working mostly on Utilities and so do not have much idea about the quality management stuff.

How to create the good received list before actual goods receipt?

Hi,
Current process at client's end.
1)Shipment arrives from vendor
2)Warehouse prints the reception note (with the system generated no.), based on the purchase order (usually referenced on package or vendor paperwork)
3)Warehouse confirms the correct product was shipped by the vendor and hand writes the quantity, lot #, and the zone/location where the material has been stored in the warehouse (they also write down if there are any problems with the shipment, etc)
4)The reception note, along with all of the vendor paperwork is transferred to the purchasing department, who then processes goods receipt based on the information written on the Reception note.
How to to map above in SAP?
(In SAP GR is printed after it is created, whereas client wants the printout before GR is created.)
Thanks in advance,
Sanjog

Hi,
I wonder why purchasers should do GR...
The goods arive at the warehouse and WH staff checks / receives them, so normally the should do the GR.
If they do mistake, GR can be cancelled.
I think your client should revise its process...
What is the sense of giving a paper, with same details as the GR would have, to the purchaser who books the GR based on that paper w/o ever seeing the goods?
I just want to say that in your process the purchaser depends on the information provided by WH staff. Why cannot be the booking executed the WH? And why can purchaser book the GR using the same information?
In case of normal process (GR done by WH staff) purchaser could check the GR in SAP w/o a physical "paperflow"...
Please explain their reason not to do this way.

Csaba

New batch creation good receipt

I would like to create new batch code automatically on good receipt if it hasn't existed in the system.
Is this related to the movement type or transaction code(MB0A or MIGO) or an user who process good receipt?
Is this configuration or user authority?
Could anybody let me know how to do the set up.
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards,
Miki

Hi Indranil,
Thanks for the information.
It is blank for good receipt 101 so it should work fine but it sometimes doesn't work.
Is there any configuration to select plant?
I would like to investigate when it doesn't work.
I am still checking.
Thank you.
Best regards,

Goods receipt cancellation

user had mistakenly processed goods receipt for extra qty other than actual qty.
ex: PO qty: 100
GR qty: 100, where as actual receipt qty is 60. when i am going to cancel this GR, system is showing error message of deficit of stock(due to user had already sold some stock).
In this case how to cancel this GR?
Is there any way where we can cancel partial qty of GR?

hi
hope u have not sold the stock more than 60
means u should have at least 40 no in stock (see in MMBE )
go to migo here choose goods receipt then movement type 102
then give the quantity of 40 in quantity tab at item details
then check and post
u can also do movement type 122 but it will be shown as return to vendor ,means u have brought 100 and then returned 40
inthe first case u will get ur po open for 40 no as the order wuantity is 100
in second case u will not get it as open
hope it clears
regards

Goods Receipt in Subcontracting process

Hi,
I am beginner in SAP.
This is regarding Goods Receipt in Subcontracting process.
I have provided raw material Quantity = 100 Nos. to subcontracting vendor.
Subcontracting vendor done machining on 80 Quantity, and we have done Goods Receipt for 80 Quantity as Finished Parts.
Subcontracting vendor found 20 Quantity as Defected.
Shall I take back 20 Quantity by Movement Type 542.
OR
Shall I do Goods Receipt of 20 Quantity as Finished Product and price = 0. & then stock transfer of Finished to Raw Material.
Please reply.

Hi,
It depends on what you want your subcontractor to do with the faulty raw material stock - if you want them to scrap it you can scrap stock from subcontractor stock using movement type 551 and special stock "O" (the system should prompt you to enter the vendor code). If you want it returned for you to scrap it - movement 542 to return it then scrap it from your own stock.
You shouldn't receive an additional 20 of the finished parts - as you only received 80 not 100. Close the purchase order off to close off the balance of 20 remaining.
Thanks

Avoid posting of Goods receipt of finished product without consumption of components in Subcontracting process

I have one requirement:
I provide components using movement type 541 to the subcontracting vendor.
Now system will allow the goods receipt of the finished product using movement type 101.
If the components which are to be consumed using movement type 543 O are unchecked when doing goods receipt of the finished product then system will allow to do the goods receipt.
As a result of which the component consumption will not be done.
Subsequent adjustment can be done but,
I want to have a check that without consuming the components the system will throw an error message when tried to do goods receipt using movement 101.
Please advice if it can be done, if so how to achieve it.

Goods receipt for subcontracting material

Hello friends,
i am doing operation subcontractiing. My first operation is subcontracted. So, I have assigned PP02 control key to first operation (external processing and no auto goods receipt indicator) and maintained external processing data for opration in routing. When i saved the order, for that operation PR gets generated.
Now, I converted PR into PO and assigned raw material that has to be send to vendor. By 541 mvt. type material is issued to vendor. When i do goods receipt in MIGO, system is not showing storage location field. I dont find material in stock anywhere.
But i can see quantity received in external processing tab of first operation in routing overveiw in order.
Then how can i issue the material from storage for second operation if it is not in stock?
How can i get stock of subcontracted material by MIGO?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance!

Kiran,
Since your scenario is Subcontract of operations, you will not find a material referance in your PR/PO, so there is no GR of Material happening, in this Scenario GR means delivery of the operation.
If you really want to track, then you need to create an additional material number and assign that material number with Special Procurement key "30", here in this case you can recieve the product after subcontract as this is product sub contract process. In this case Production order is not relevant.

Problem for Goods Receipt for Subcontracting Purchase Order

Dear all,
Presently, we are using SAP version 4.6C and we need to introduce GR for
Subcontracting Purchase Order. We have developed a ABAP program to handle
subcon Goods Receipt by uploading flat-files from our subcontractor. The
scenario is as follows :
Goods Receipt for Subcontracting Purchase Order
1. In the ABAP program, function BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE will be used for goods
movement.
2. Data provided to the function are as follows :
- Posting date
- Document date
- Material number
- Plant
- Storage location
- Batch
- Movement type (101)
- Quantity
- Purchase order number
- Purchase order item
- Movement indicator (B - Goods receipt for purchase order)
3. The function will do data verification and automatically determine GI
item for subcon stock:
- Movement type (543)
- Special stock (O - parts prov. vendor)
- Material
- Quantity
- Plant
Our problem is that :
Only the GR item in the interface is to be transferred and the GI item is
determined by the system. So, the quantity for subcon stock cannot be
changed using this BAPI. Then the system will continue processing the goods
receipt and create material document.
Manually, by using transaction code MIGO, the user can display the subcon
stock data and then change the quantity.
By using transaction code MB01, after the user fills in all the GR fields,
the system comes to line item 002 (subcon stock data) and then quantity can
be changed.
As per user requirement, quantity for GI item must be same with the quantity
that has been transferred to subcon vendor in Delivery for Subcon
(transaction code VL02N).
We cannot achieve this requirement by using the BAPI mentioned above. Would
appreciate any valuable help from anyone who is able to help us on this
matter. Are there any other BAPI's that can help us to achieve the same
result ?
Thank you in advance and best regards.

As far as i understood the problem I suggest u to create the
BDC according to user actions that are performed in he manual
operation.
I can't say that the BAPI performs the exac solution what you want.
I have done some BDC work using MB01 and suggest you to be careful
and try to keep the complete in the logic as some chages in rows in BDC will
change the complete scenario.And throw correct quantity val in correct
material
row.
This methodology will help u even in mass uploads.
Or in case of automation u can perform the call transaction BDC in
background mode.
so As per my understanding bdc program is the solution. pls try and let me
know.

Goods Receipt of HU for Process Order

Hi All,
I have the following scenario.
We are looking to implement HUM.
We are using externally numbered HU's.
Every HU when packed in prodcution may have a different quantity so we will not use packing instructions to save the deletion of non used HU's.
Do I need to use COWBPACK to assign HU's to the process order. Issue with this is standard SAP does not allow assignment of externally numbered HU's.
Or
Can I assign the HU's a point of Goods Receipt. I see that COWBHUWE allows the process order to be added and then the HU's.
I assume that is HU's were assigned in COWBPACK this would automatically populate when the process order was entered.
Can I just eneter the process order and manually add the HU's.
If not we will have to look at BADI's or custom transaction.
Thanks in advance
Stuart

Hi Vishal,
We will be building the Hu's as we perform the packing packing process order. We pack Box HU's in to a Tote HU.
The Tote HU has a re-usable HU number on (externally number assignment)
We will not use packing instructions to define the Hu structure.
What we need to be able to do is perform a goods receipt of the packed HU's against the process order.
I am starting to think that this is a custom development.
When you use COWBHUWE do you have to have assigned HU's in COWBPACK??
We cannot use COWBAPCK as it does not allow external numbered HU's to be assigned.
Thanks
Stuart
