Hi
A warehouse can contain stocks owned by variousconsignment vendors. Settlement is based on the
material withdrawn from the consignment stock.As a result, Inventory Management and Invoice
Verification must fulfill special requirements.To support the procurement process for consignment
material, you can define conditions for consignment processing that are valid for specific periods. You
can enter these conditions in foreign currencies and include alternative units of mea-sure. For inventory
postings (for example, postings made for deliveries, good issues, confirmations for run schedule headers) and in the relevant preparatory phases, the system can suggest the stocks from which to withdraw material. In the strategies used for stock selection, you can have the system take both your
companys own stock as well as the vendor consi gnment stock into consideration.The R/3 System provides enhanced functionality for settling consignment liabilities. To make the process more transparent to the vendor, you can create consignment settlement documents and send them
to the vendor.

Vendor Management / Tracking the Product or Material

Hi Friends:
Is it possible to follow up on Vendor Management. the case study is as under :
In an organization, the customer has a problem with the product, & the organization offers Customer Service ( which may be mapped in CS Module), in-house repair & on site repair.
There is a case wherein the engineer from the service provider side ( organization) is not able to solve the problem & due to technical or lack of spare part or any other reason, the product / or its part is sent back to VENDOR either fo the Replacement or REPAIR of the product, and the customer does not know where is the product or its part is neither the service engineer s know, And when customer makes a call to enquire about his product, no one in the company has the answer asto where the product is either with the service provider or at the VENDOR site.
So, in order to track the product immediately... where can the same be tracked & which Module of ERP (R/3)? CS Module, MM Module or any other Module ?
Kindly Suggest & advice.
Regards, Pradeep

Hi,
As per your scenario, try these following steps:
1. Create the Service Notification
2. Create the Service Order based on notification
3. Based on analysis, either operation can be done internally (PM01 Control Key) or externally (PM02 Control Key)
4. PR would be generated for the External Operation
5. Components may be issued based on that order for the External Operation
So based on that document flow in notification, you can track the status of the service notification. Even you can define the tasks to be done for the service in the notification, so that, you can track that notification very well.

Maheswaran.

Differ. VMI(Vendor Managed Inventory) and SMI(Supplier Managed Inventory)?

Hi all~
I'm beginner in SNC.
SNC have SMI scenario. But I think SNC-SMI is same as MM-VMI scenario.
SMI
======================================================
http://www50.sap.com/businessmaps/1D59B26B277611D5B359000102ACA9A3.htm
The SMI process is a supplier-driven replenishment and planning process, which is based on min/max stock balance levels, on current demand, in-transits and planned shipments.
======================================================
VMI
======================================================
[http://www50.sap.com/businessmaps/459B5C21A96411D3870B0000E820132C.htm|http://www50.sap.com/businessmaps/459B5C21A96411D3870B0000E820132C.htm]
With vendor managed inventory scenarios, manufacturers can offer their customers a value added service by performing the replenishment planning task for their business partners.
======================================================
Anyone can help to verify differ or same?
Thank you.
SKY.

Hello ,
To add to above two answers,in SNC supply chain is as follows.
SUPPLIER -
> MANUFACTURE -
> CUSTOMER
SNC as an aplication will be installed at Manufatcurer site.
Now if Supplier is managing inventory for manufacturer than it is SMI.In this case supplier will login into SNC ( hosted at Manufatcuring site ) and manage inventory.
If Manufacturer is managing inventory for CUSTOMER than it is VMI.
Basically SMI and VMI are mirror image of each other.
Hope it will help.

Vendor Management with Service Industry

Hello!!
I was wondering if you guys could tell me what SAP material types do your companies use for materials/services like warranties, software install, insert (product information/usage instructions/promotion printed, folded and inserted into the package with the product). I'm assuming that any labor costs, travel, etc. related to repair are DIEN. Do you use any other SAP material types for repairs?
I'm trying to figure out what would be the most suitable material types for above items.
Also How's the VEndor management comes in into the Service industry like IT Services.
Thanks in Advance!!!
Rajesh.M

Hi Rajesh,
As such for services, material type is DIEN, or may be without material number, but using the material groups...but for usage instrcutions/promotion material, material type will be NLAG or UNBW (Non-stock and Non-Valuated respectively).

ROS - SRM Vs, Vendor management -E-Sourcing

Hi all
How vendors are screened in e-Souricng in Vendor management arena. I learnt that e-sourcing too accept and manage vendors .
Supplier screening is very important in procurement busisness.
Is it like Registration of suppliers (ROS) in SRM?
Are after created a vendor in e-sourcing , will u push to ECC or SRM. How vendor data are sync with Backend systems like ECC /SRM.
really vendor data relate with accouting data will be stored in ECC. what about in e-sourcing.
since customer expect this functionality. ARe in e-sourcing can used for only Vendor management for large scale customers. for eg tomorrow DUN And BRADSHEET wanted to use Vendor management functionality via e-Sourcing. is it possible.
Any help is apprecited. I am Mostly interested How vendors are selected / what are the main factors are considered to accept a vendor .
Thanks
Muthu

Hi Muthu
Check out this note
1313088 Integration of SAP E-Sourcing 5.0/5.1 and SAP ERP
on page 2 and 3
Replication of SAP E-Sourcing Supplier to SAP ERP Vendor
This scenario supports the replication of suppliers that have been created in SAP E-Sourcing
for a sourcing event. Suppliers can be replicated back to SAP ERP individually on an asneeded
basis with user intervention.
When transmitting supplier master data from SAP E-Sourcing to SAP ERP, only external
number assignment is supported. This means that SAP E-Sourcing determines the supplier
number that is assigned to the vendor when it is created in SAP ERP. This is possible via SAP
E-Sourcing configuration mechanisms.
Internal number assignment in SAP ERP is not supported in the current integration package.
This means that SAP E-Sourcing does not allow a supplier to be published to SAP ERP when
internal number assignment is used. An error message is displayed in this case.
Linking is possible only through a manual process (that is, you must create the vendor in SAP
ERP manually and then link it to the SAP E-Sourcing supplier manually).
Supplier changes cannot be replicated from SAP E-Sourcing back to SAP ERP. Only the initial
creation of the supplier is supported.
The following basic SAP ERP vendor fields are supported:
SAP E-Sourcing Supplier Fields SAP ERP Vendor Fields......

Vendor Consignment stock or vendor managed stock

Dear All,
My client wants to manage vendor consignment stock.
Vendor will be given a area and vendor will keep the stock in his area. Based on the plan he will supply the stock.
the GR for rawmaterials will be made on the consumption report given by the production person. This activity will happen next day only. i will do the GR only to the quantity consumed.
for example if i consumed 100 qty, i will do GR only for 100 and vendor will issue invoice for 100. But when the vendor issue the stock, he will raise a excise invoice based on which i have to take excise credit. I want to know how to do the same.
secondly, i take credit for 100 qty, but actual consumption is 95 only, how do i reverse the 5 only excise invoice.
regards
ranga

No, it is possible to sell from vendor consignment stock directly and I have done it in ECC 6.0 (not IS-retail).
- Pls refer the note 607604.
- Establish the 'stock determination rule' in MM -> Inventory Management -> Stock Determination.
- You need to assign it to the material (MRP3 view) or assign it to item-ategory.
- DONOT mark the special stock indicator in item-category used in SD (e.g. TAN) with 'K'..I did this mistake and wasted some time. If you do, it will ask you to populate the Vendor field in the Delivery which is not available and you may get stuck up because of that.
This should make it work.
Pls award points if you find this information useful.

Back up discounts from Vendors in consignment purchase

A retailer purchases stock on consignment from a vendor before the start of the season
During the season , for slow moving stock the retailer enters into a markdown arrangement with the vendor where for specific SKU the retailer marks down the price by certain percentage which is shared with the vendor.
For example: If for sports sweat shirt for the XXL sizes the retailer wants to offer a 50 % discount on the product . Of this discount 25% will be shared by the vendor/manufacturer.
During the settlement of the vendor's liability this additional discount needs to be reduced from the vendor payables.
How can this be managed .
Could someone please help

Hi,
Create separate condition type for Vendor discount and company discount and assign to separate G/L account though Account Key
While settlement..compair with vendor discount G/L Account

Material Management-Consignment

What are the Business benifits for Stock Transfer(STO) on Cross-Company-Code for Consignment material?

Hi,
The basic benefits of STO will carry even for the consignment material like:--
 A goods receipt can be planned in the receiving plant.
 You can enter a vendor (transport vendor) in the stock transport order.
 Delivery costs can be entered in the stock transport order.
 The stock transfer order is part of MRP: Purchase requisitions that were created in MRP can be converted into stock transport orders.
 The goods issue can be entered using a delivery via Shipping (LE-SHP).
 The entire process can be monitored via the purchase order history.
Moreover wen you are using Cross comapny code sto then please note the following points:--
 The quantity posted from the stock of the issuing plant is managed neither in the issuing plant nor in the receiving plant. Only once the goods receipt has been posted is the quantity posted to the unrestricted-use stock of the receiving plant. After the goods issue has been posted, the stock overview displays the quantity transferred as Stock in trans. CC. This stock is determined dynamically for stock balance display.
 With this transfer posting, price determination is carried out in both Purchasing and Sales & Distribution (SD).
o In Purchasing, the price of the material in question is determined in the usual manner (from the info record, for example).
o In SD, pricing is also carried out as normal during the billing process.
 The goods movements are valuated at the price determined in each case
Hope it helps you.

Manage Consignment Stock within Intraplant delivery

Dear Gurus,
we are using Stock Transfer Orders to manage the transfer of materials between two storage locations (from A to B) within the same plant (there are two different responibilities). The steps are the following:
1. STO creation
2. Delivery creation and Warehouse Management TO creation
3. WM Transfer Order confirmation
4. Goods Issue Posting
5. Goods Issue Receipt
Now we would like to introduce a new warehouse (C) for a transfer of materials from C to B. Whse C contains Cosignment Stock. The system should create an Outbound delivery for consignment and create WM TO for consignment. After the confirmation of the WM TO the Goods Issue Post should be done with a Movement type 641k and the goods issue receipt should load whse B with own stock.
I tried to build this scenario and it seems to work but i can't post the goods issue because the delivery is not created for a consignemt scenario (while WM TO are created correctly).
Can you explain me wich are the correct steps?
Kind Regards,
Francesco

Hello Francesco,
I have the same concern and / or inquiry, have you been able to resolve this issue? What was the conclusion?

Sell vendor stock (Consignment fill-up) to clients

Dear mates,
I have a complicated business requirement. I have special stock(K) of vendor consignment (for sample X ) and I want to sell this stock to a client (for sample Y).
I looking for this scenario in a lot of forums but i do not get any answer or solution.
Anyone have some idea to do it?
Regards and thanks a lot,
Isaac

Dear Isaac,
System should convert vendor stock into unrestricted stock (Business owned) in back end and then posts the goods issue (Mvt Type 601) for the sales order created for customer at the time of PGI .
From FICO side a new line item will be created against vendor payments.
Business clears the vendor payment through standard vendor payment process.
Just think whether this idea may of any help for you.....

EHS - Contractor/Vendor Management

Hi all
Is there any mechanism in SAP EHS or MM module, where we can capture details such as Insurance, Environment compliances, Waste dispose/transport license details for vendors/contractors. We want to capture this information while selecting a vendor/contractor and then renewing their contractors.
is there any functionality, where we can create criteria mentioning that, without these documents, particular vendor/contractor cannot work for the organisation.
Looking for your reply.
Regards
Vikram Sethi

Hi Vikram,
The requirements which you have mentioned is addressed by SAP MM module with PTP (procure to pay) scenario under vendor evaluation business process.
Please go to the following path in spro for maintaining your specific criterions:
spro> materials management> purchasing>vendor evaluation>define criteria
Here, you may define the "main criteria" as say " EH&S " and probably maintain your different aspects as "subcriteria". Here you have the facility of user exits for probably delisting or blocking specific vendors for may be EH&S services.
You may also like to see t-code "me61" i.e "Maintain Vendor Evaluation" , where-in if you had floated any RFP (request for proposal) to the available vendors in your company's master data, you would like to evaluate the vendors on the EH&S specific defined subcriterions in spro. Thereby, you should be able to select and process only those vendors which are really applicable for the required job.
Please get in touch with any MM consultant for detailed info.
Regards
Pavan

(VMI) Vendor Managed Inventory

Dear Gurus,
I'm new to MM. I need your expertise to enlighten me on the VMI process. We have a Supplier and we would like to implement VMI so that the materials are only created with PO and Invoiced at the time the materials are used for Production Consumption.
How do I set this up? What are the prerequisites?
Thanks experts!

Hi,
This can be mapped as vendor cosignment. Vendor places stock at your premices. You will do GR for the material, but no accounting docs get created. When the consumption of that material is done through GI or transfer posting from consignment to own throgh 411 K movemet type. The accounting will get trigger. In mrko we will do settle. One thing is there is no invoice. Only settlement periodically in MRKO.
The prerequisites are Material master vendor master PIR )infocategory as consignment, price should maintain), consignment PO(here price will be picked from PIR, NO invoice Tab, item category K), GR and MRKO. For each movemet type special stock indicator as K should be used.Thanking you.
