Updating Item Master Organization

Dear All,
We have two Business Group in US and in Canada. We have defined two Item Master Organization; one for US and the other for Canada. Now we want to convert it into single Item Master Organization.
What are the implications? Is it advisable? Is there any document on the impact on the existing setups?

Insert or Update Item Master is too slow

Dear Expert,
I have a problem in add or update Item Master Data. When I click Add/Update, the process saving is too slow (need more than 5 minutes). This condition appear yesterday. In 2 days ago process add/update item master data normal.
But the others transaction like business process, transaction is normal.
I have did shrink database in SQL, but not help.
Does anybody help my problem? how should I do?
Thank you before help me

Hi pak Hendra,
May I know how much is your livedb size now ? If it is still slow after reindexing, you may consider to do these followings suggestions:
1. Increase your server hdd size
2. Increase your server's processor
3. cut off and do new opening balance
Is the problem happened in branch/outlet ? do you use citrix to access the server from branch ? Of course you can reindex the db to solve this issue but it is not the only one solution. You must also concern about the connection.

Multiple Item Master Organizations

We are working on an Oracle Implementation for a large firm in South Korea.
Our client covers many different industires and operate nationally,
it is inevitable to use Multi-Organization structure.
And we are also considering implementing multiple item master organizations
under one installation of Oracle applications.
( Acutally We have 1 Set Of Books, 1 Legal Entity, 13 Operating Units )
Cause there are much difference between chemical industry and Heavy Industry,
Our Client says it just has little business impacts with 2 separate item master organizations.
But According to Oracle documents, Oracle does recommend not to difine
multiple item masters.
We are not sure if there could be much functional or technical impacts with multiple item master organizations.
Cause we have no reference site here in Korea.
Has anyone been involved in this type of situation before?
Are there any other points for considerations?
We would very appreciate hearing from you ASAP.
Thank you

I am not sure if i understood everything but I would say go with single item master. Its simple & easily to manage item attribute later on.

Unable to update item master data after upgrade

Greetings,
I have just upgraded from 2005A SP01 PL22 to 8.81 PL05.
After the upgrade, I am unable to update any field in the item master data.
Error message:
In "Warehouses - Setup" window, on "Accounting" tab, choose sales-type revenue account , '_SYS00000001165' [Message 131-52]
I have checked all the warehouses accounting tab and all the revenue account is a sales type account. I have also checked the GL for _SYS00000001165 and it is a COGS GL. After I change its type to "Sales", I am able to update. This shouldn't be the case.
I have also tested creating and update new item master and I have no problem. However, I will have the same problem if i add a new item via duplicating from an old item.
Any advice?
Thank you.

Hi,
Can you also check whether the Item which you are trying to update has Manage G\L Account by as Item, Item group or Warehouse?
If you have checked for the Warehouses, check for the Item Group and at the G\L Determination > Inventory tab as well.

Relation between item master org and operating Unit

How single item master org can relate to multiple operating Unit so that items defined at Master Org level can be accessed in other operating units ?

Hi,
Item will be accessed in inventory organizations which you assigned the item to.
To access items from particular Operating Unit in Purchasing module
define Operating Unit Organization as a Inventory Organization as well.
Then choose this Organization as a Inventory Organization in Purchasing : Setup>Organizations>Financial Options.
In Order Management you choose an Operating Unit which items can be accessed.
Each item assign to Item Master Organization and to Operating Unit Organization and to required Inventory Organizations.
This works in 11i. I dont know how it is in R12.

Marcin

Hide tabs in Item Master

Dear All
I Would like to hide all the tabs except sales and Inventory tab,how ever i have tried all the ways but when i navigate or do some updation Item Master form comes as default with all the tabs, Does SAP Business One Supports hiding of tabs .is it recommended to hide SAP Standard Forms tabs
Zubair

Hi,
actually we came to the point that you cant hide them in the normal way.
everything you do oItem.Top or oItem.Visible will influence the whole group.
the last solution can be - put a big empty (with no caption) statictext label over the folders !
than it looks like the other folders are not there
give it a try - that's the last idea i have regarding this issue.

Failed to update in the Item Master Form ATO field checked

Hi All ,
I am trying to implement B2B ( Back to Back Order ) and to implement the B2B the ATO should be checked irrespective of Manufacturing is installed or not.
Now the problem is I am able to update some of the item but failed to update some of the item and it gives error " the Sales Order Line is opened you can not
check the ATO".
Now I did to avoid this I updated the columns BUILD_IN_WIP_FLAG to 'Y' and REPLENISH_TO_ORDER_FLAG = 'Y' in the Item master table .
And I was successfully able made further transaction of the open sales order line.
I wanted to know to updating the field BUILD_IN_WIP_FLAG to 'Y' and REPLENISH_TO_ORDER_FLAG = 'Y' will impact our bussiness in Future.
Regards,
Sharad

Hello Sharad,
First thing, if you are implementing B2B in your system then your organization is a Manufacturing organization or distribution organization?
If this is not a Manufacturing organization, then the item should be a Buy Item along with ATO attribute enabled. So that the B2B requisition created & then PO.
If you are implementing Assemble to Order in Manufacturing organization, then your ordered item should be a make item not a buy item. For this sub assembly or finally assembly you need to define the bill, routing etc. After that once you book the ATO sales order, the work order will be created. & the process continues.
The error "the Sales Order Line is opened you cannot check the ATO", comes when you are having open sales order exists & you are trying to update item attributes. It is always advisable to close all the sales order lines in this case before changing the same.
Unless & until you are using BOM & WIP in your organization, change of BUILD_IN_WIP_FLAG will not affect. Please make sure not to update these attributes from backend using database update script.

Update of Intrastat details against Item Master Data

Hi I'm looking to import Intrastat details against item master data. I understnad from the portal that this needs to be imported to UDO but need some guidance in terms of template set up.
Grateful for any help
Regards
David

Hi,
If you have made already the transactions you cannot update the G/L method.
Secondly if you have set G/L by Item level then you need to define the inventory accounts for all the items in your template then only you will be able to proceed further

How to update Item UOM in Item master

Hi All,
How can we update UOM of an old Item (with existing transaction) in Item master?
Thanks in advance,
Nuel

Hi Nuel,
It is not possible to update the UOM for an item.
Even Oracle support cannot give data fix once the item is transacted.
Only way I say is to change the item name using the profile option INV: Updatable Item Name
Then recreate new item with correct UOM.
For Example - item name is TEST.
Change the name to TEST-OLD.
Create new item with TEST.
Issue out all old onhand and recieve new onhand.
Please let me know if you have questions.
Regards,
Sabari

Item master not updating DTW error

Hi Expert
well i am updating my item master, i just want to change two field, one field is "SET G/L accounts" and other one is item group, right now it is "By Item Level" for items and i want to convert this into "By Item Group" for this purpose i am using DTW but DTW throwing one error(which is related to conversion of SET G/L account),to solve that error what i did , i just change that field manually, but the number of items is too large so what i did i just run the query to update all items but still dtw is throwing same error for the item which i update by query, so what should i do now ?? i have to change all items manually ??
please reply ASAP

Hi,
You should never try run query to update anything. That is too dangerous. You are risking losing SAP support!
It sound like your db is new. In that case, better to restore to the old backup to do everything right from the beginning. Hope it is still not too late.
Thanks,

Item descriptions update on Master Data

Hi there,
Item descriptions update on master data does not get read into existing sales orders and subsequently when delivery dockets and invoice are generated, they are all not updated. Could the SAP programmer analysts please fix this bug? thanks.
Similarly if item's GL account is set by item group and the item group is changed after an item is processed on sales order, the change in GL posting is not reflected when invoice is subsequently processed. Please also fix this bug, thanks.

Hi Amy,
for both issue nothing to do from SAP MDM side, You need to take help of SAP Technical Consultant(Programmer) which analyst the problem and fix it for e.g. SAP Notes updation for program or assign/change SAP standard program for message type etc.
Thanks,

Automatically Update a UDF in the Item Master

Hi Experts,
I am new to SAP Business One. I need to update automatically the value of a UDF. The value will be calculated using data from related tables. Calculation includes -summation, divide and minus etc. Could you provide guide.
For example a new UDF should contain the suggested quantity to order in the Item Master Data. This is calculated considering the running average sales quantity as of current time for this month and deduct the available quantity on hand and also deduct the quantity already ordered (arriving soon to be delivered to warehouse).
Formula:      = ( S / N ) * D - ( OnHand ) - ( Ordered )
where   S = Quantity sold so far within this month
              N = days count ( if today is March 18, N = 18 )
              D = number of days for this month. (can be 28, 30 or 31 days)
This means that the data in the database must also be updated. I appreciate your input.
If possible, the OITW, MinOrder will be updated instead of a UDF.

Haven't tested it properly, but something like this....
select
(s0.qty / datepart(day,getdate())) * datepart(day,(DateAdd(day, -1, DateAdd(month, DateDiff(month, 0, getdate())+1, 0)))) - t0.onhand - t0.onorder
from
oitm t0
left join
(select     t0.itemcode,
          sum(t0.quantity) as qty
          from inv1 t0
          inner join
          oinv t1
          on t0.docentry = t1.docentry
          where datepart(month,t1.docdate) = datepart(month,getdate())
          and datepart(year,t1.docdate) = datepart(year,getdate())
          group by t0.itemcode) s0
on t0.itemcode = s0.itemcode
where t0.itemcode = $[OITM.ITEMCODE]
Currently this adds up the qty from all invoices, if you want to subtract credit notes you just have to build in a second subselect from ORIN and RIN1 and subtract them off.
Hope this helps.
