Substitution for control key

Dear Gurus,
I am creating a project with 6 WBS elements. When I am creating internal activity then my control key is PS01.
My requiremenet is that only for 1st WBS of every project, my internal activity should be ZPS1 and for remaining it would be PS01. Is it possible through substitution ?
Please guide
Keshav

Hi,
SPRO >> PS >> Structures >> Operative Structures >> Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) >> Define Field Selection for Work Breakdown Structures >> Field Selection: WBS Element >> F2
Here define the 6 levels of WBS as per your requirement.
And in substitution, try to add control Key as fixed value for WBS level 1.
I am not sure it will work, but have a try

Activating WCM for control key WCM (operation level)

Hi Guys,
I want to activate WCM in the PM order when i enter WCM control key in operations.
I do NOT want to activate it using "Activate Work Clearance Management for Maintenance Orders".
I have done all the config but maybe i missed something as the work approval icon is not appearing for WCM key in order.
Can someone think of what i may have missed?

I guess it wont solve my problem as the WCM is working at operation level in another system without it
any more suggestions?

Auto GR with Control Key or Prod.Scheduling Profile

Hi PP champs
As we can use both i.e. Control key and Production scheduling profile for activating the Auhto GR for prodcution order confirmation ..Can some one help me which is the more <b>preferred</b> or which is considered first by the system if we have both in <b>material master and routings respectively</b>.
I have gone thru the documentation but couldn't get clearity as in both its mentioned as if its not activated in scheduling profile control key will take over and same thing for control key that if its not mentioned in control key system will check for production scheduling profile...
BR
Sumit

Sumit,
Generally Production scheduling profile is the prefered option, as most of the clients also prefer using to control certain auotmation at the time of order creation and release.
To me i dont see a big difference between using control key or scheduling profile to define auto GR.
As far as priority is concerned Control key is first checked by the system, if not available checks for scheduling profile.

I have checked the config also, but cant find any clue.
Thanks.

Issue with Period Control 03 for Depri key MSTL with 6446

Hi Gurus,
We want to use mid-month calculation for Dep. key MSTL using period control 03 (i.e. 03/03/03/03). We are also using 6446 as year-depedent Fiscal year (i.e. Jan and Dec 6 weeks other rest 4 weeks). period control 03 is pro rata at mid period
period 12 for 2009 start 11/14/09 ends 12/25/09
period 1 for 2010 start   12/26/09 ends 02/05/10
as per period control 03 mid month is Dec-04-2009 (setup in OAVH)
When i acquire an asset on Dec-04-09, the dep start date is Nov-14-09 which is correct and all calculation is correct
however when i acquire an asset on Dec-06-09 the dep start date is still Nov-14-09 which is not correct infact it should start dep from next month which will be Dec-26-09 (This is 1st period of Fiscal year 2010)
As mentioned above we are using 6-4-4-6 fiscal year
When acquiring an asset with mid month concept at year end we are facing problem in depri start date and hence calculation.
The setting in OAVH for period control 03 are as below
FV   Period Control     Desc.                             Year   Month   Day    Period    MidMonth
NL        03              Pro rata at mid period          2009    12        4         12           ticked
NL        03              Pro rata at mid period          2009    12        25       12           ticked
NL        03              Pro rata at mid period          2009    12        31        1            ticked
NL        03              Pro rata at mid period          2010    1          15        1            ticked
Thanks in advance

Deepak,
Your period 12/2009 starts and ends between 11/14/09 ends 12/25/09. Now you acquire an asset on 12/4/2009. As per OAVH, you want depreciation calculation start mid-period. Then how is depreciation start date of Nov 14, 2009 for this case?
Then you acquire an asset on Dec6, 2009. This, as per OAVH, falls into period 12/2009. Then why should the calculation start from period 1/2010 for this case?
Thanks,
Asheesh

Confirmation control key check for inbound delivery creation

Hi,
Currently, in the Client's company, the process of receiving goods from purchase orders looks like that (SAP-wise):
- create a purchase order,
- receive goods using MIGO and automatically create an inbound delivery,
- pack the delivery and post goods receipt.
Recently, some patches have been installed, including one described by note 1602047 (which basically enforces checking confirmation control keys if goods receipt assignment and goods receipt relevance are activated for inbound deliveries). Note says that it only affects two-step stock transfer and creation of automatic inbound deliveries using SPED output but it seems it also affects other basic processes like PO receipt in MIGO.
Now, when using the old control key (that had MRP-Relevant and GR-Relevant fields checked), the system is unable to automatically create an inbound delivery after the goods receipt is posted with MIGO (with message VL148 - Not possible to create an inbound delivery). I learned that this is because the "GR Assignment" field must be checked in the confirmation control key so it's possible to automatically create aninbound delivery after receiving a purchase order in MIGO.
After changing the confirmation control key to have the missing field checked it's not possible anymore to receive goods from PO in MIGO as the PO requires shipping notification in order to be processed in MIGO thus requiring of manual creation of an inbound delivery.
Is there any way to skip this check so the process would remain the same (this model has been working fine for few years in the Client's system) and the inbound delievery would be created automatically after posting the receipt in MIGO?
Thanks in advance,
Piotr

Hi,
don't know if you found a solution, but we received the following message from SAP:
The advent of the new version requires some attention to the users. It
was necessary to avoid inconsistencies which in the past version the
system was susceptible.
Main Program SAPMM07M
Source code of MM07MLVS
sy-msgid VL sy-msgty E sy-msgno 148
I have checked the process and through debugged I could confirm the
following information SAP is providing to all similar incidents reportedfor us:
Error message VL 148 is issued if in the confirmation control key used
in the purchase order, the fields for MRP-relevance (T163G-KZDIS),
GR relevance (T163G-WEREL) and GR assignment indicator (T163G-WEZUO)
are not set.
The correction of note 1602047 was necessary to avoid inconsistencies
(table EKES) in the purchase order. Without having the GR assignment
(T163G-WEZUO) set, there is no unique reference created between the
purchase order history (table EKBE) and the inbound delivery
confirmation (table EKES) at goods receipt which leads to a problem if
several inbound deliveries exist for the same purchase order.
If you set T163G-WEZUO to 'X', this assures that, for an inbound
delivery, the confirmation record (EKES) belonging to this inbound
delivery (EKES-VBELN) is also accurately updated at goods receipt.
How to solve the issue?
Use a confirmation control key with the GR assignment indicator set
and then create the inbound delivery with VL31N. If you want to be able
to create the inbound delivery with reference to a certain line item in
the PO, use transaction VL34.
If you still want to use transaction MIGO, there is the following
workaround:
- Create a purchase order without any confirmation control key
- Create a goods receipt (GR) in transaction MIGO with reference to this PO and post the GR to a non-HU-managed storage location
- Create a transfer posting with MIGO using movement type 311 to
transfer the goods from the non-HU-managed storage location to the
HU-managed storage location.
As the transfer posting is an additional step for the user, the whole
process could be automated using a partner storage location
(T001l-PARLG) for the GR which then triggers (through a modification)
the BAPI 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE' to create the transfer posting without
user interaction.
I hope to have satisfied you on the reason why it is now happening and
also I believe you can explain to business that it is a new behavior
necessary done from SAP side to avoid worse situations, we are aware of
potential dissatisfaction it might cause. SAP Support is always
available to clarify any issue.
Sorry for not having a more positive answer.
I hope it helps!

Confirmation Control Key Should be mandatory for PO document type

Hi All,
I want to know, is there any configuration settings to make mandatory "confirmation control key" for the Particular Purchasing document type's.
If it is not there what should be the best to achieve this requirement.
Thanks in Advance,
Shankar.

Hi
I think there is no standard setting to make mandatory document "confirmation control key" for the Particular Purchasing document type's.
Best way is to maintain in Purchasing view of vendor master record since confirmations rare sent by the vendor.If you want for some perticular materials you can maintain in Purchasing info record.

Vendor Bank Details - Bank control Key for Spain

Greetings,
Can anyone tell me how to maintain the bank control key for Spain in the vendor master data? I can see that Spain uses the key to check the combination of bank number and bank account number, and it looks like the validation points to table BNKAIN. However, where do I get the two digit bank control key (from the vendor?), and how do I maintain it in the table (this table is buffered)?
Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated, and I will gladly assign points for helpful responses.
Thanks!

Hi Eric,
Thank you for your quick response. My problem is not location of the field itself, but rather on what data to use to populate the field. There is no input help for this field, and the system issues an error message every time I try to populate the field. We ran a trace and discovered that the system appears to be running a check against table BNKAIN. I think perhaps I need to maintain that table, but cannot figure out how to access the table to maintain the entries. Do you know how to maintain this table, or is there a specific bank control key that should be used for Spain?

Default values for confirmation control key

Dear forum
I am using a confirmation control key 0004 Shipping notification (standard SAP) in the Purchase order line item (created with ME21n).
When I enter the confirmation data (with transaction ME22n) in the purchase order line item (confirmations tab), I have to type in delivery date, quantity and so on manually, which is standard.
But, what if I want to copy the original delivery date and quantity from the line item in the order, and use this as default value for the line item confirmation data...is it possible somehow?
The reason why I want to do this is for the user not having to go in and update this date manually all the time, but only when the confirmed dates/quantities differ from the desired delivery date and quantities in the purchase order line item. We are not on EDI or using Inbound deliverys for Purchase orders.
Thanks
Ola

Hi,
The Confirmation is nothing but the acknowledgement.So, its usually entered manuallly by the authorised User allowing follow on documents for Purchase Order.
You can chesk once the customisation of Confiramtion control keys for automatic update indicator.
Yes, you can use User Exit and develop with the help of ABAPERS.
Hope it will help you.

Mass change for field Confirmation control Key in PO / SA

Dear All,
There is a need to do mass change in value for field Confirmation control Key in PO / SA. Some of them have PO history. If we have PO history system wont allow to change conf. ctrl key. Also since it is a production system we can not cancel previous po histories. This is in SAP 4.7 where we dont have mass change tcode for Scheduling agreements.
Can we maintain the values thru table entries. like using se16n maintain entries check box. This option is greyed out. can we activate that & do this requirement.
please suggest.

hi Greetings!
The confirmation control key can not be changed in the scheduling agreement if GR for item had already been posted. If the GRs can be canceled , it is possible to change the confirmation control in the SA item.
Version 4.7 do not support Mass change of scheduling agreements, hence you have to either create a SCAT or BDC to perform the task.

Bank Control Key for Spain

Does anybody know how the Bank Control Key works for Spain.
The help on the field LFBK-BKONT is not that helpful.

Hi,
This is a key for checking the combination of bank number and bank account number. Permitted length, characters and other country information for Spain are :
The bank key has eight digits (4 positions stand for the bank number + 4 positions for the branch), is numerical, and without gaps.
The bank account number has 10 digits, is numerical, and without gaps.
The control key has 2 digits and is numerical.
The bank key, the bank account number and the control key are checked simultaneously.
If an error message is displayed when entering bank data, you should check whether data has been entered correctly. Here's a sample.
Country Bank key Bank account Control key
Spain 00120345 0000067890 03
Hope this helps. I had copied this from a note long back and can look for the actual note if required.
Cheers !

Control key for sub-operation

Hi, what is the control key used for sub-operations for which we do not want seperate confirmation. when main operation confirms, the sub-operation should get confirm automatically. please advise.

hi,
You can use PP03 or *PP05 * or any other which dont have tick for confirmation required.
only thing is that , other details also you need to check for.
Depending on your requirements, a sub-operation can contain the following data:
A control key, which specifies
Whether costs are determined for the sub-operation
Whether the sub-operation is processed internally or externally by a vendor.
Whether, afterwards in order processing, a confirmation can or must be made
A wage type for settling incentive wages
Standard values, which are planned values for the activities to be performed in a sub-operation.
External processing data, which form the basis for externally processing sub-operations
User-defined fields with any customer-defined data
Check and revert back

Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement

if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
if we want want to maintaine
pls tell me how it is
pls expalin
faisal

if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
I am not clear about your question. But I guess you want to know about control key function. You activate "proc. asctive" box in QM view of material master, that is always at plant level. When you activate this, system automatically asks for a control key & cert type, thats mandatory field.
