Transit time in consignment fill-up

Hi,
As we know that after consignment fill-up in MMBE unrestricted stock become the consignment stock,but if stock take 3-4 days to reach the customer site.So this duration( transit time) how will we show in our system.
Because system immediatly show the unrestricted stock to the consignment stock.But in actual it takes 3-4 days.

Prabudh

Hi Prabudh,
Once you done the PGI in the consignment fill up process as per the satndard the system will take in to the stock as special stock.
The underlying goods movement type is a stock transfer. This ensures that when goods issue is posted, consignment special stock is created for the customer concerned. If special stock of this kind already exists in the delivering plant for this customer, the goods are posted to this special stock.
I hope it will not help you,

Credit Limit should be consumed in consignment fill up

Hi
We a consignment sale scenario. We send some goods to our consignment agent. These agents are created as customers in SAP.
When i do consignment fill up (i.e. when i send goods from my stores to consignment agent), there is no FI accounting entry posted in SAP.
My client requires that, my credit limit should get used at the time of consignment fill up itself.
As far as i have worked on credit management, credit limit is used when customer A/c, is debited. But in above scenario, there is no debit to consignment agent account.
Please suggest how to handle this scenario.

Hi Meenu,
Credit limit for consignment fill up is not standard requirement,because the owner ship of the material is still with you.Credit limit
can be triggered at consignment issue,where the owner ship of the material is changing.
System didn't consider at fill up due to the special stock indicator at VOV7 for item category.

Consignment Fill up vallid for accounting document

Hello,
I want to create accounting document during Goods issue in Consignmentt Fill up.
Actually We want to bill customer at time of consignment fill up.
Please suggest for required settings for the same.
Regards
Amit

Dear Amit
Conceptually and Practically also consignment fill up order is not supported with commercial billing and when the consigement fill up stocks move out of a manufacturing plant to make excise invoice we create proforma invoice in consignment fill up and proforma invoice doesnot update or impact accounting
Hope this clarifies your doubt
If you sell a customer a material A on consignment fill up say 100 units that means you are keeping your valuated stocks at his premises thinking that he will use that and so that we can make sale
This is consignment fill up no commercial invoice the ownnership belongs to us
If he takes 50 units out of this then it is Consignment issue this is supported by commercial billing as we make a sale here
The balance 50 units is taken thro Consignment pickup again there is no commercial billing here as we take back our stocks only no sale
Suppose after some time the customer returns 5 units which was sold thro Consignment issue then it is Consignment returns which is supported with commercial billing as we give credit memo for that 5 units

Plants Abroad set up for consignment fill up

Hi,
We have scenario for Plants Abroad. There will be Consignment fill up process within EU from country to other.
There is need for VAT posting in Proforma Invoice for Consignment Fill up.
I would appriciate if any one let me know how Pricing can be set up,Will that tax posting (if we take MWST condition type) will be nullify with another tax condition.
Is there any documents or white paper avaialable for Plants Abroad -Consignment Fill up scenario for Pricing set up.
Looking forward for response asap.Thanks.

Hi Akshay
You can use consignment process as available in Std SAP. If u dont want to VAT postings to be updated till material is sold then u can have different account key and can post tax amount to intermediate account such as VAT payable and then at the time of consignment issue u can have different account key and can update actual tax account .
consult with your FI collegue ,this is process generally followed in stock transfer but u can modify it to use for your consigment posting.
revert if u want to discuss further

Excise Transaction Type for consignment fill up / stock transfer

Hi
When i post excise invoice on account of removal due to sales (through J1IIN), SAP pulls uses DLFC excise transaction type. Following entry is posted at the time of J1IIN:
Excise Duty paid A/c.. Dr
   To Excise Duty payable (Basic + ECess + SHEC)
My requirement is, when i post excise invoice on account of removal due to consignment or stock transfer, SAP should pass following entry:
Excise Duty paid on consignment A/c.. Dr
   To Excise Duty payable (Basic + ECess + SHEC)
Excise Duty paid on stock transfer A/c.. Dr
   To Excise Duty payable (Basic + ECess + SHEC)
For this, i will have to create different GL accounts and assign it to "CENVAT SUSPENSE" in excise transaction type table.
But i does not know which excise transaction type does SAP uses for consignment fill up and stock transfer. Please suggest.

1.basic settings-create subtransaction type.
create subtransaction type
cf-consignment fillup
st-stock transfer
2.account determination- Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction
copy DLFC and name it as DLFC and cf and also st.
3.account determination-Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction
copy dlfc and maintain DLFC and subtransaction type cf and also st.
change the gl account for cenvat suspense for st and cf combination.

Proforma Invoice for Consignment Fill-up

Hi,
Everytime there is a delivery out from my company, we need to submit a proforma invoice to custom.
Now we plan to implement the Consignment but we facing a problem. After we created the transcations for consignment fill-up (sales order type KB and its delivery order), we want to create the proforma invoice (F8) based on the delivery order but an error occured as below:
"80008164 000010 Item category LF KBN cannot be invoiced with billing type F8."
Is this message telling that consignment fill-up transaction can't use as reference to create a proforma invoice?
Is there any configuration that I need to do to allow the creation of proforma invoice based on the consignment fill-up transaction?
Thank you.

Hi Aaron,
You can have a Proforma Invoice for Consignment Fill-up. For this use the following path:
IMG> Sales and Distribution> Sales> Sales Documents> Sales Document Item--> Define Item Categories. Here select the Item Category KBN and select option "D" for Billing Relevance field and "X" for Pricing field (seen in the Business Data option).
Also maintain Copy control between the Delivery type & Billing type using T-code VTFL. Here ensure Copying requirement as 009(DlvRel.pro forma hdr) at Header level. And at Item level select Item category as "KBN" with Copying requirements as 010(DlvRel.pro forma itm), Billing Qty as "B" and Pricing Type as per your requirement.
Hope this helps you.
REWARD if it helps you!!

Promised Date Calculation based on Need by Date and Transit Time

Hi,
I have created PO with NBD as D25 (Day 25) and approved it. This means that i need the goods to be at my premisis by D25.
Now the requirement is
Promised date in my PO should be calculated to D25 - Transit Time. So that supplier will be notified D25-Transit time.
Or Is there any workaround to overcome this.
Thanks,
Jey

PO Number Check on an Inter-Company Consignment Fill-up Order

Hi Gurus,
I am working on an Inter-Company Consignment Fillup Scenario. When i create an order in CRM the order is error free. Upon replication i get an error. The error message is
Purchase order "TEST PO" does not exist in the system (see long text) (Notification E V1 583) - TEST PO is the PO entered.
The requirement is to enter any PO and ECC should not check if a Purchase Order exists for the PO entered in ECC.
This was working before we applied support packs in our environment 10 days back.
Well we do not create orders in ECC, if i try to create one in ECC the error is
Purchase order Test PO does not exist in the system
Message no. V1583
Diagnosis
You are creating an order for a consolidated company and must eliminate internal business volume. For this reason, the system tries to determine if the related purchase order exists. This is not the case, however.
Procedure
Enter the relevant purchase order number
Thanks,

<b>Consignment Cycle:</b>
1. Consignment fill up:
Sales document type is KB
Item category KBN
schedule line category 1
In this step, you are not invoicing the customer. document flow is sales order -
delivery item category. It will not be relevant for billing and pricing because you are not charging money for these goods in this step.
In schedule line category, you will set movement type 631 & set for availability check and TOR.
2. Consignment Issue.
Once the customer informed you that he used all the goods or partial goods then you will create consignment issue for used goods.
Sales document: KE
Item category: KEN
schedule line category: C0 or C1
Here you are invoicing the customer(because he used the goods). you are assigning the delivery document and billing document to the sales document.
In item category, you are setting relevant for billing, pricing, special stock.
In schedule line category, your setting is 633 movement type, relevant for availability check & TOR.
3. Consignment Return:
Customer found that some goods are damaged or he not able to sold the goods he want to send it back. that you are creating this document.
Sales document type: KR
Item category: KRN
You will assign delivery document and billing to sales document. you will create return order, return delivery, return billing.
Your setting item category relevant for billing, returns, pricing, special stock.
Your setting schedule line item category: 634 movement type, NO availability NO TOR.
4. Consignment Pick up:
Even if you create the consignment return the goods are not come to direct to your plant. For that you need to create consignment pick up. here the owner ship is not changing so you do not need to create billing.
Assign return delivery to sales document type.

Purchase-How could I consider Transit time and lead time in imported mat.

My doubt refers about master data configuration of imported material.
My sittuation is :
Material - Lead Time: (depend on source)
Transit Time: (depend on source)
My company is responsable to transport all bought material. Besides, I can buy of differents suppliers.
Considering these rules, It s impossible to fix dates in material master, because material purchase is related with center and not with supplier. By the way, I need to discover other master data to configure it maybe : Inforecord, quotization... Whatever...
I need to correct this to generate Purchase order with dispatched date of my source against required date of my company after execute MRP.
I tried to study this scenario but until now I ve not got a solution.
Probably, you have had it before and can help me.
I hope your help!
Thank you!
Regards!

Create POs with respect to either PIRs (if you don't need to print out) or Contract/item, both of these are Vendor/material specific so you can set lead times accordingly . Probably best to use Source List and set requirement in material master too (Purchasing view).

How to back date for schedule line date of Consignment Fill-Up

Hi,
There are available stock for the material used. In VA01 of order type KB - Consignment Fill-up, I put in a backdated schedule line date (example: 09.09.2008). However, the system automatically proposed a new schedule line date of today's date (example: 13.10.2008).
How can I remain the backdated date with confirmed qty instead of today's date?
Thanks.

Hi Wooi Ling
when system is not able to confirm the schedule lines, the system would give a proposal date on which the requirement can be met.
in this case ,you can do one thing , you can set the indicator " Fix date and quantity " in the item schedule line. this would fix the date and the quantity for delivery and the schedules lines.
this would also mean the customer accepts the delivery and quantity confirmed by the system, The system then passes on MRP requirements so that the confirmed date and quantity can be met.
hope this helps
thanks

Document flow in consignment fill up incorrect?

Hello Experts,
This issue is about consignment pick up
the problem what the user is getting is---
1)the user created a consignment fill up order
2) while the consignment pick up order is not showingallowing inward delivery of second line items.
I would give an example-
consignment fill up order-100 units
consignment pickup order- line item 10=10 units
line item 20=20 units
line item 30=30 units
in the document flow of the consignment fillup order is not showing the consignment pick up of line item 20,30.
meaning: in the document flow , the line item 20,30 are not updated and cannot be known unless we can open,see and compare with consignment fill up order. Now how to overcome this problem,is this a configuration error or program error?
Regards,
Raj
Edited by: Nori Raja Sekhar on Nov 3, 2008 10:56 AM

Dear Raj
- Ensure that the item category for all line items is KBN in fillup order
- Ensure that for line items 20 & 30, you have created fillup delivery and proforma invoice
- Ensure that the schedule line category for fillup order is E1
- Similarly, for consignment pickup, ensure that the item category is KAN and schedule line category is F0

Picking from warehouse for Consignment Fill Up

Dear Friends,
For the Consignment Fill Up flow , I am not able to create a transfer order for the delivery.
I am getting the below error :
Data for storage type search is not defined (A )
But from the same plant, I am able to do picking through transfer order for normal sales order.
Is there any specific setting that needs to be maintained for the Consignment Fill up flow with regard to warehouse setup.
Please advise.
Regards,
Harsh

Dear Harsh,
I'm very sorry, I think I misunderstood your question.
1. You can do outbound delivery (picking+GI) from consignement stock.
2. You have problem when you want to create TO from TR that was created when goods arrived at your WH.
You said you cannot create TO. I guess you can create TO, your problem is that SAP can't find automatically into which bins to move the goods when you process the TR (are creating the TO). Please confirm it.
(you can give the destination storage typr/bin manually)
If your problem is this you can check your settings:
SPRO > LE > WM > Strategies > Storage Type Search (+ S. Section Search + S. Bin S.)
Here you can choose 'Determine search sequence' > Please select the relevant line, that you use for the putaway of normal goods > copy it and write 'K' in 'special stock indicator' field.
I do not know your settings but maybe this information can help you to start to resolve the problem you are facing.
