Usage of 'Average Inspection Duration' in the Material Master QM view?

Hi,
facing user requirements that you should be able to consider the QM stock in the ATP calculations in a special way, I want to have some feedback re the usage of this Material Master field. The user actually would like to have the parts available in the Sales Order scheduling line after a specific number of days, when having run the ATP job. The ATP Config is set to include QM stock in the run (and they do not want to change that), so presently the system promise deliveries in the SO, but it can not be done! Nice solution should have been the for instance set a delivery after the planned number of days for inspection as set in the MM QM view! The only usage I have seen so far of this field is that the planend insp date range is visibale alike in tr code QA32, but that is more admin info, not causing hands-on effects.
So two questions:
What hands-on effect does this MM QM field entry have in R/3?
Any suggestion how to solve this user wish re ATP logic??
Best regards / Roland

QM: Inspection Setup in the Material Master

Hi all!
A quick novice user query: In SAP ERP Quality Management, I was creating an inspection lot for a material and it prompted me to first add an inspection type for it. I went to the Inspection Setup in the Material Master, entered the material, the plant, check activate inspection, selected an inspection type and hit execute. But it keeps giving me "No entries found". Any help?
Thanks a bunch in advance!
Regards,
Bilal

Your query does not provide complete info as to what type of inspection origin you're trying.
Anyway as a thumb rule ensure that the setup in material master exists, i.e. the relevant inspection origin type. Ensure the tickbox for active exists. Also the corresponding data such as inspection plan / material characteristic etc. exists along with the required setup.
Once the above is in place you can proceed with the QM flow. In addition to this I would also suggest do a search in QM forums to know more about how to maintain the data, what needs to exist etc. Also go thru' SAP help.

Default inspection Type In the Material Master

Hello
We have to assign two -three inspection types in the material master. How to default this inspection types in the material master always .
Thanks
JJ

Dear JJ
This you will have to do by putting validation in the material master. I dont think you have a standard solution for that.
Or esle you can run QA08 wherein you can assign inspection type enmass.
Please let meknow your feedback

Legacy number in the material master

Dear SAP Guru,
Good day.
We are currently in production support today and we want to understand how a legacy number differs from a material number. As we can see in the material master (Classification View) there is an indicated legacy number there with a corresponding value. Could you further elaborate on how and what is the usage of a legacy number?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards,
JMT

Jasmin,
Basically some clients would be interested to track the SAP material number with referance to the Legacy material number, this data would be uploaded during the Cut-over and data conversion to SAP.
I would suggest you look at the Functional/Tehnical specification document for the conversion program which was used for uploading the material master data into SAP, that would give you the business reason and the field mapping details.

Service Level in the Material Master

Hi -
Can the service level field in the material master MRP view be used to drive additional demand independant of safety stock? Meaning, is there any way I can enter a service level and have it increase demand even if I am not using it to calculate safety stock?
Thanks

I do not think this is possible. Service level is usually used for safety stock planning.

Upload the material master

Hi all,
can u pls give the global structure for Upload the material master (All Views Should Be Covered).
Regards,
ravi.

hi,
Please go to TCODE SHDB.
Create a new recording with any zname and enter the tcode in the tcode field.
Now it will record all the screens which you encounter during a record creation.
Once it is done, it will take you to the recorded data. Save and come back.
Now select the recording and click on program which creates a program for your recording.
you have 2 options one for transfering from file and one for transfer from recording.
if you use the file options then it will create the internal table with the fields .
incase of tranfer from the recording then it will directly puts the recorded valus which are to be replaced by creating an internal table and replacing the recorded values with the workareas.
Make necessary changes in the code which was generated automaticallly.
hope this is clear.
Thanks and regards.

Interactive ALV to report to get into Material Master Sales View

Hi,
I want to know way to get into Material master Sales view from an Interactive ALV report.
In the output we have (custom report for Sales) the Sales Order item information. If the user double clicks on the material, it should directly goes to the Material Master Sales org 1 view. I can able to get to MM03 initial screen to display the list of views, but it would be better we can use the Plant, Sales Org and plant info from Sales Item to get into the material master Sales view.
I checked that this functionality is there in the standard code. If you double click on the material in Purchase order display(ME23N) from the item level, it is directly getting into Material Master Purchasing view. Is there a way to achieve this.
Your suggestions would be appreciated with points. Thanks!

Hello,
Yes, it's possible using the CALL TRANSACTION command with the addition AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN. The only thing that you need is to fill the fields from the first screen (SET PARAMETER command).
DATA: carrid TYPE spfli-carrid,
connid TYPE spfli-connid.
SET PARAMETER ID: 'CAR' FIELD carrid,
'CON' FIELD connid.
CALL TRANSACTION 'FLIGHT_TA' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.

Inspection type's maintained in the material master

Hello,
I want to know the transaction code using which I can check the inspection type's maintained in the material master.
I do not want to go per material put in mass. I know that I can pull the data from tables but i do not want that.
I want the standard SAP transaction code.
Regards,
Narendra Bora

Well, you could make the argument that using SQVI to create a query and making this report available to select users is not really development. It is a standard SAP transaction and users can be limited to only running certain queries. Groups of queries can be created and users assigned to groups. By adding variants that users can't modify and locking certain fields in the variant you can limit the queries to a maximum number of records. Usually the argument is that a user will create a massive query or set values that return too many values. Both of these concerns can be addressed.
I don't think a lot of people understand the full capabilities of SQVI. You don't have to give users unlimited access to the transaction!
If there was a "standard" report or transaction for what you want, I think between Sujit, and myself, we would be aware of it. It is a common requirement during go lives to have to review inspection type setups. I would hope by now we would have run across it.

" Item Category Group" in the material master?

Hi,
I'm going to use inbound delivery for purchase order, so I'm going to do it as follows:
1) Create a new "item category group Y001"
2) Create a new "item category Y001 (copy from ELN then change the movement type to 101, and set it relevant to putaway)",
3) Replace the item category group in the material master with Y001
4) Determine the item category via transaction 0184 as the following ways:
     "Delivery Type" EL    +
     "Item Category Group From Material Master" Y001    +
     "Item Usage" V     +
     'Item Category Of The Higher-Level Item"
     ==> "Determine New Delivery Item Category" Y001
My question is, If I change the item category group in the material master, is there any effect to SD part?
Thanks.

hi
General item category group
Materials grouping that helps the system to determine item categories during sales document processing.
*If a group is configured specific to distribution channel, it has priority if the corresponding activity is distribution channel-dependent
Item category group from material master
A grouping of materials that the system uses to determine item categories during the processing of sales documents.
the difference between the two lies in the specificity to the distribution channel

Change of price control from "s" to "v" in the material master

Dear All,
Due to business requirement, we would like to change the price control for FERT items in the material master from "S-Standard Cost" to "V-Moving Average Price". This change we would like to do only at sales plants (Non-Manufacturing Locations). Very few materilas are having the stock on the date of the price control change
I would like to know is there any SAP Note / Any of you are having such experience? Please arrange the same.
Regards
Anilkumar

Hi,
i am not sure about any program but through MR21 you can change tthe Price in material master.
If stock is available system will hit to closing stock of the material for price change in case stock is not available it will hit price difference gl account.

Update of cost in the material master

Hi all,
From the purchasing point of view,In the normal process Cost in the Material master gets updated from purchasing documnents automatically.In this case,manually if the cost is changed in the purchase order affects the cost in the material master.My requirement is this should be done automatically after receiving the vendors confirmation of list of material costs.There may be chance of change in the cost of the materials.so the costs of the materials which were changed should get updated in the material master automatically(VPRS).
Ie changing of the costs of the materials in the purchase order should be reduced .How this will done??
If we have more than 2000 line items in the purchase order,it will be quite little bit difficult to update each material cost in the purchase order .
Thanks in advance..
Regards...VM

Hi,
Normally material will be valuated with two types of price controls S -standard price and V-moving avaerage price.
A std price as its name indicated it is std and will not chnage.
A moving average price will chnage accordingly with the change in the material price.
Normally it will be better create a info record for the material and vendor combination for the plant or purchase organisation with a info update indicator in the purchase order will serve your pupose .
With the proper settings at SPRO system creates info record during creation of PO if it does not exist or updates the existing record if it has one with the latest price details in the form of last purchasing document so that these details get defaulted during creation of PO.
However you can create a outline aggrement so that a PO can be created with reference to that.
Or you can create a condition record for the price for your combination so that it can get defaulted.
The price which is there in PO will not be defaulted to material master.
Or time to time you can review the prices and maintain via MR21.

Deleting QM View in the material master

Hi
Is their any way we can delete the QM view in the material master , once it is created
Thanks
JJ

Hi
Deleting a QM view is not possible
what You can do ...is Deactivate all Inspection Types that you have assigned by QA08
or do mass changes using MM17(MARA & MARC) and remove all fields.
It is as good as removing QM view.
Note:
u can set deletion flag at plant level or client level. ONce u do that u can delete that particular material from that plant using sara transaction . But note that all view at that plant level vl be get deleted
so better to make it blank
