Using Variant Configuarion for a sales order

Hello
I have most of my solution on VC for sales completed. I am having a small issue on one thing...and I would like to get some suggestions please.
We are not a true MTO site so this really is not a MTO scenario...but there is a requirement to use some of the functionality of VC for the different software options...everything works great except one thing. I have one of my items (this is a power cord and can be a 110 or a 220) that I have as a K class and a stock item(L) and I have the material numbers listed for this in CL24N; all the classes and characteristics, etc are set up. CU50 works correctly, My Class type for this is 300. The sales order works great, etc...my issue is when I post goods issue fo ra sales order, the power cord item does not get reduced in inventory and I need it to. The item does not show up on the sales order, we want it like that; however the power cord needs to be reduced from inventory. Does anyone know a way around this without having to add it as an item in the sales order. We would like to keep it in the Variant Configuration selections.

Thank you for responding, very appreciated. My valuation class and account assignment appear to be correct. If I use this item as a standard line item in the sales order, it will relieve inventory. Only when I am using it as a characteristic will it not relieve inventory, which is what I need it to do.

Custom ATP Check using Variant Configuration Data in sales order

I have a requirement to modify the standard SAP ATP check by including the variant configuration data entered on a item. Standard SAP does not use/include the characteristics data when doing the ATP. None of the available user exits would allow me to do this.
The scenario is the client has a configurable product that exist in inventory as one item, base unit as IN2. The batches that exist in inventory have the characteristics of width and length. The order data specifies a width and a length, they need the ATP to identify the availability based on the characteristics of the batch.
The solution was to present the user with a list of batches based on the characteristics that meet the criteria. The user would then have the option of choosing one of the batches which would mean that the line item would include the batch #. If the user does not want any of the batches, they could choose to select a Make to Order option, which would change the item category of the item, so that it creates a production order upon saving the order.
The problem I am having implementing this solution is I have not been able to identify the internal table(s) that contains the characteristics data in SAPMV45A after the configuration screen is called. If anyone knows where that information is during the sales order processing, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Jean,
Have you managed to find a solution as yet? I know you have not received any replies but am hoping you were able to resolve the problem as we are facing the exact issue on our project.
Please let me know,

How to set "Configuration Variant" for a sales order item using function

Hello All,
I use function module 'SD_SALES_DOCU_MAINTAIN' to create Customer Indep. Requirements but how to set "Configuration Variant" for a sales order item.
Is their any idea or sample code?

A variant is simply an SAP report where the parameters for running the report have been set by the user and then saved with unique name. This allows future retrieval and execution of the report faster without reentering the parameters. As a convention the variant name should start with with the digits 50 so searchs for LHU variants is easier and quicker.

Pricing determination for creating sales order using BAPI

Hi,
I am using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 for creating sales order. I am filling conditions structures
'BAPICOND' and 'BAPICONDX' .
      fs_order_conditions_in-itm_number = '00010'.
      fs_order_conditions_in-cond_type = 'ZNTP'.
      fs_order_conditions_in-cond_value = zsalesinput-price.
      fs_order_conditions_in-currency   = 'INR'.
      append fs_order_conditions_in to order_conditions_in.
      fs_order_conditions_inx-itm_number = '00010'.
      fs_order_conditions_inx-cond_type = 'ZNTP'.
      fs_order_conditions_inx-cond_value = 'X'.
      fs_order_conditions_inx-currency   = 'X'.
     fs_order_conditions_inx-updateflag   = 'U'.
      append fs_order_conditions_inx to order_conditions_inx.
I am filling the conditions table with above mentioned fields.
Sales order is getting created successfully but I am getting two condition records in the conditions tab of sales order, one which is filled using the BAPI and the other one which is automatically picked by the system. Please tell me how to restrict the one which is created automatically by the system.
Because I want the one which is created by BAPI only.
Helpful posts will be rewarded

Hello Manchu.
Basically, it is an SD customizing issue. During the creation of the Sales Order you cannot "restrict" any other condition type. The SD guys must customize the condition type to allow for zero value so that the sales order is successfully created without this conition type.

George

Web Service for "Creating Sales Order" by using BAPI

Hello All,
I am trying to create a WS for "Creating Sales Order". The corresponding BAPI that I am using for this purpose is BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1. I am able to create the Web Service and run the WSDL on WS Navigator.
But there is a problem whil executing the Web Service. In the interface of WS, we can only enter item level details of "Order Partner". So when I enter the details and click on Execute, it returns me an error message "Please enter Ship to Party and Sold to Party". I have already given these details.
Does any one have any idea of what is going wrong?

Credit Block for released sales order

Dear All,
I have got one issue. There is a sales order which was created earlier say 15 days back. It went into the credit block at the time of saving it. It was released through VKM3 too.
Now when i change any field in the sales order today, it is going into the credit block. We are not changing any value of any of the item. Just maintaining the Billing block in it or remobving the Billing block.
The number of days maintained in the OVA8 are 182. So as per the standard functionality it should not go into the credit block for any change in the sales order like changing the billling date or changing the billing block.
Can you please let me know what might be the reason for this sales order to go into the credit block..??? Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Vishi.

Dear Vishi
Please check if you have checked the critical fields option.
Credit check against critical fields (fixed value dates)
The indicator controls the critical field check. If the field is selected, the system checks whether critical fields have been changed.
Use
If a check is carried out, the following fields are relevant:
Payment terms
Additional value days
Fixed value date
Note
Use this type of check for sales documents only.

KPIs for SD:Sales Orders & Delivery

Hi Experts,
Could some one please help me out to find out different KPIs for SD : Sales Orders & Delivery.
Am trying to create a BEx report for SD mofule using custom list of KPIs.
Any source where i could find the KPIs for SD module.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Krishna.

Krishna,
???? There is no list of 'KPIs for SD module'. KPIs differ for every company. Perhaps you should first ask your business users what THEY think the KPIs should be.
A few KPIs related to SD I have seen:
Forecasted/Budgeted vs Actual - Bookings
Forecasted/Budgeted vs Actual - Backlog
Forecasted/Budgeted vs Actual - Billings
Current backlog late to Requested date
Current backlog late to Confirmed date
Historical Requested vs Confirmed vs Actual (Shipment) date
Historical/Current Pricing and Pricing trends
Historical/Current Price vs cost
....but don't start work on ANY KPI until you get confirmation from your users that the KPIs have merit TO THEM.

MTO - how to prevent a second planned order for a sales order?

Dear friends,
We are working on Make to Order process (Planning strategy group 20).
No Production/process order is used
Shop floor uses a different system --> details from planned order is passed to the shop floor system; and finished product is delivered/posted into SAP Sales order stock - through interfaces
No QM in place
A typical day-to-day scenario
Sales order Qty = 100
MRP Run à Planned order qty = 100
Raw materials posted to Sales order stock
Planned order is firmed
For example if Produced qty = 90
sales order stock of the finished product = 90
Balance 10 cannot be produced / delivered for various reasons
Planner posts the raw material to cost center / rejections / own stock etc., and ensures that the sales order stock of the raw materials are zero.
Planner deletes the planned order
Next MRP run triggers a new planned order for the balance qty 10
Now, the requirement is to prevent the new planned order getting generated for the balance quantity, during the subsequent MRP run (despite the shortage in the Sales order stock of the finished product).
The following options have been evaluated
Once the final good receipt is done & before deleting the planned order,
o       Change the Sales order quantity to match the total produced quantity
o       (or) Change the schedule line category for the Sales order item from CP to CN
§         Since the Sales order and planned order are handled by different teams, considering the frequency of correspondence/coordination needed between these two teams to get the sales order items corrected, this idea is not accepted
§         Additional authorization for the planner to change the sales order item is not acceptable
Include Under delivery / Unlimited tolerances
o       at the customer (master) level
o       (or) Sales order level
§         In this case, System seems to consider the tolerances only when the delivery for the Sales order is posted; and not when the sales order stock is received within the tolerance limits;
§         Considering the time gap between the GR and Delivery of the finished product, this option is not accepted
Kindly suggest the other options / settings / processes, to meet this requirement
Thank you for your time and efforts.
With Best Regards,
Senthil

Looking for your inputs .
Thanks inadvance

Hi
1. Copare the Routes which are Automatically determined and which are not automatically determined
2. Have you mainted this route to be RELEVANT FOR TRANSPORTATION without this check route will not get picked up.
SPRO > Logistic General > Shipping > Basic Shipping Function > Routes > Define Routes > Define Routes and stages > Select the Route and check for it's settings > CHECK MARK Relevant for Transport. Without this check the route will not get picked up as of my understanding.
