Treatement of normal and FOC item in inventory

Dear Experts,
We have a requirement in which same material has to be in stock with value and as FOC item also. (We don't want averaging of price)
Business Scenario: Stock of item A is 100 QTY with value 1000 $. Vendor provides as special stock (For demo/display purpose) of the same item with 0 value. Both the stock exist in our inventory, i.e 100 qty with 1000 $ and 10 qty at 0 price. After the promotion period we need to transfer this stock to normal stock with normal stock value.
How we can achieve this. Kindly help.
Thanks & Regards
Ranjit Simon

Hi,
   You may check the concept of split valuation in this case. Create two valuation types - one for normal material and one for FOC, so that you can valuate them separately. Refer the doc: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d09889cd-5df5-2d10-979c-8f11abbba28d?overridelayout=t… and Split Valuation Activation & its Material Master creation
    After sales promotion, you may transfer post the material from FOC valuation type to normal valuation type using 309 movement. Refer the help doc: Transfer Posting, From Valuation Type to Valuation Type (SAP Library - MM - Material Price Change (MM-IV-MP))
    If split valuation activation is not feasible, since the material is already in use (as explained by Jurgen), either you may create a new material and activate split valuation for the material and use the material code instead of the existing material code, OR you may create a separate material code for FOC purchase and then transfer post stock to original material using 309 movement after the sales promotion.

FOC item relation with standard item

Hi All,
I am new to SAP SD. I have small doubt related to FOC item relation with standard item. When i enter standard item in sales order automatically free of charge item coming as sub item.
Please tell me where do we create link between standard item and FOC item so that once standard item entered in sales order automatically free item will come into sales order.
Regards
Ashok

If I am understanding you correctly, you will maintain this using VOV4
go to your order type
find the Item category from the material master for the material you are using (NORM,DIEN,etc)
enter your high level item category for sales order (standard Item) (item categories that are defined in VOV7)
then enter your default item category for sales order (sub items)
I hope this helps you in the right direction. Please advise

Launching FBL5N for "Normal items" and "Vendor items" the output ...

Hi All,
In my system customers are vendors too, with two different codes linked in the section "Account control" of the master data of each of them.
Launching FBL5N for "Normal" items and "Vendor items", and for the WHOLE RANGE of customers, the output list shows first all items of vendors and then the items of customers.
I'd like to obtain a report launched for the WHOLE RANGE of customers with an output list which shows me for each customer-vendor code, the customer and vendor items displaied alongside.
Is it possible by FBL5N? If not, is there another report fo this purpose?
Thank you for your advices.
Gandalf

Do you know another report which can help me?
Thanks

CATT Test case for ME41 tcode(Multiple items for inventory and service )

Hello Gurus,
Now we are having quotation legacy file for Tcode ME41 for inventory and service items. We are using tcode <b>SCAT</b>
for CATT. Every thing going fine at recording in test case. i dont know where should i specify my legacy file path. I found there is one download option while before running test case. its not taking the file path. is there any other file path for running test case?
advice me.

Hi
I think you should use an abap program and not LSMW, because the problem is you have to create a recording for trx ME41 in the LSMW and after you can't change the abap code created.
In this way you could insert only a certain number of items by a project of LSMW, and it depends on your recording.
So if you can't know how many item should be loaded, it's very hard to use LSMW.

Double transfered items to plant and now shows negative inventory

Hi,
I have double tranfered (351 mvt type) the items to a plant and now shows negetive inventory.
Ex-
       Its an STO PO
      PO line item   2 qty.
      GI (351 mvt type) - 2 qty and again 2 qty
      GR (101 mov type) done - 4 qty.
plz guide me how to correct it...reversal or cancellation..any effect of a/c entries

Personally I'd suggest a cancellation for something that didn't happen. So cancel GR for 4 (and then do a GR for 2) and cancel the second GI of 2.
With a cancellation you are guaranteed to post to the correct accounts (with a reversal it should be the correct accounts being posted to too).

Updation of FOC item for multiple customers at a time

Freinds,
I have an issue regarding Free Goods item updation using T code - VBN1. Normally we are updating an FOC item with the main line item along with quantity(exclusive or inclusive) for a particular period. The same process will repeat for each customer code using the T code. My question is, whether there is any option to update the same set of FOC item for multiple set of customers at a time, instead of entering one by one for each customers. Please help me out in this. Thanks.

If this is going to be a regular exercise, then you need to consider to add one more combination of Customer / Material based on which, you can create LSMW and make use of it regularly. This is straight and simple approach to achieve the desired result. On the other hand, if you dont want to touch your existing configuration, then you have to copy the standard program SAPMV13N, create a BDC, add input parameters as you wish and upload.

Returning project related items to inventory

Items are purchased as an expense whenever a purchase order is raised against a project. Received, delivered and expensed out at the time of receiving. Incase of surplus items, how to return back such expense items into inventory?
What is the best way to return such expense items back to inventory?

You can't return expense items as Inventory.
You need to make them as Inventory Item and perform Misc/account alias
receipt to bring them to stock.
Also, you may need to perform manual journals to adjust the project costing.

Sales analysis report of items not inventoried in utility bill

Buenas tardes:
Espero me entiendan ya que mi ingles es un poco malo.
quisiera saber si hay alguna forma de sacar un reporte de facturas de servicio donde los articulos son del tipo no inventariable, ya que en el analisis de ventas no me permite sacar este tipo de informacion,
no se si me explique bien.
Gracias
Good afternoon:
I hope you understand me because my English is a little bad.
I wonder if there is any way to get a report of invoices for service where no type items are inventoried, as in the analysis of sales will not let me get this type of information,
not if I explain it right.
Thanks

Welcome to the forum.
Yes finding it difficult to understand what exactly your requirement is. Assuming that you want to see some despatch details where delivery is not made and its like sale order related billing, please check the following TCodes.
1) VF05 or VF05N
2) MCTE
3) MCTA
4) MC+E
Hope my understanding is correct,
thanks

Difference between booked items and requested items

Hi Gurus,
I wanted to understand the difference between
Booking History - booked items – booked date
Booking History – requested items –booked date
The Series definition has the same definition given in the hint. I checked one of the below links for the same topic but couldn't get a full view.
Which series go to Actual_quantity in Standrad collections
Can any one let me know what the difference between booked items and requested items is? As I understand in OM, we have no differentiation. Do let me know
Thanks
DNP

Hi
In normal circumstances, there is no difference between requested item vs. booked item. But if you're using Item Substitution, these could be different. For example, a customer may call to request item A but for multiple reasons it may be substituted by a different item (usually an upgrade with similar form, function etc).
Oracle APS supports this functionality out of box in order promising and ASCP where it can be done based on a pre-defined relationship based on availability etc.
Hope this answers your question, please feel free to let me know if I may help calrify further

Can't get Mail- Gmail- Drafts(And Sent Items) to mirror online or my iphone

I have read the posts here and elsewhere on how to get this to work, but for some reason my 'Drafts'(and 'Sent' items) folder in Mail.app is still not the same as online or on my iphone. What exactly do i need to do to make Mail.app folders for Drafts/Sent items stay in synch with my iPhone and web based Gmail?
Here are my settings in Mail.app
-Gmail is Setup as IMAP
-in Mail->Prefs->Accounts->Mailbox Behaviours All boxes are checked for Server except 'Junk'
When looking at a normal 'Inbox' panel, if I mouse over the 'Gmail' account in 'Drafts' it says "Contents Stored on Server. Name on Server: Drafts"
However when viewing Mail.app->Drafts->Gmail, no draft messages are shown. If I do the same on my iPhone or the web based gmail I do see the up-to-date drafts. Also if i select the 'Drafts->Gmail folder), I do not get any options in (Mail->Mailbox->Use This Mailbox for).
That said, if I find the IMAP Structure in Mail(scrolling down accounts) I do see a folder structure called 'Gmail->[Google Mail]' that does contain the Drafts and Sent folders that are in synch.
Tia,

Cost Element Category and Commitment Item Cat. for PS Cash Mgmt

Dear All,
We are activating PS Cash Mgmt.
I want to know the difference between:
1. Maintaining the Cost Element Category as 1 and 11. Is it necessary to maintain 11 (Revenues) or maintaining 1 (Primary costs/cost-reducing revenues) will have same result.
2. In Comm. Item Financial Tran. maintained is 30. But for Commitment Item Cat. as 3 (Expenditures) or 2 (Revenues) only to be assigned for revenue.
Our Client is asking to maintain everything as 3 (Expenditures) to all the commitment items. What will be the effect on PS Cash Management if I use Cost Element Category as 1 & Commitment Item Cat. as 3 ?
Regards
Shubham

Hi,
Cost element category as 1 and commint Item caterory 3 holds good for all expenses, so you can use this, with this when you process Invoice In MIRO a Project cash management document will get generated and this will update the report against the payments in CJIA as well in S_ALR_87013574 reports etc.
Combination for creating commitment items is
Cost element category 1 --> Commitment item category as 3 and Financial Transaction as 30
Cost element category 11--> Commitme nt Item category as 2 and Financial Trns as 30.
Note : what ever the G/L accounts created wrt Chart of accounts, whether it is Expenses or Inventory or Revenues, you have to assign commitment item in the G/L Master in Create/bank/interest tab in field commitment item. If it is not assigned in all modules you will get error as commitment item not assigned.
Thanks
