Waiver process during Production order

Hi,
My client has a requirement whic is called as waiver process, whereby a part could be replaced by another alternative part during production order process, however the whole process need to be integrated with ECM and workflow for seemless communication and approval.
Has anyone come across manufacturing waiver process and can this process be designed within ECC60 or is it better to look for MES or MII tool to address the business requirement?
Appreciate any response concerning this topic.
Thanks and regards,
Bhaskar

I resolved this issue by using the process in SAP ME and ECC, using WIP processing in MES.

Change Work Center during production order confirmation

Dear All,
I must to modeling this situation:
I created an production order. In routing I used an work center A.
After I confirmed a half of quantity, the work center A was damaged and I must to change it, with the work center B.
The system allow this change, but when I checked the costing, the situation isn't real. The system counted the costs just for the work center A, and no for work center B.
My question is: it's possible to change the work center, during production order confirmation and the costs updated with new cost?
Thank you for your answer!
Regards,
Marian

once a Order is released, the Process order detaisl for that order is frozen.
however if you want to do it, change the order status to CRTD after reversing the Movements done.
Do READ MAster data , this will copy the new Work center , redo the previously done Moevements.
if the change is long term.
or
Just manually add the new work center and do the processing. if the change is temporary.

External subcontracting processing in production orders

Hi Everybody, We are facing a following situation...while using external subcontracting processing in production orders..
Finance wants all costs settled off of production orders with receipts against them at period end to accurately capture costs for the period. This is because of our companys financial policy i.e. we have to settle the exact costs by every month end instead of using GR/IR postings for partially confirmed quantities.. Any production orders with receipts against them must be able to be settled at period end. This includes partially received production orders, (it means when the total production order quantity is 10 PCS and if Subcon vendor sends 5pcs in this month end and sends the remaining 5 in the next month).
Currently we have not been able to settle partially received production orders in our testing. SAP is requiring the production order to be in TECO (Technically Complete) status before it can be settled. It is not feasible for PP to have production orders that have not been fully received in TECO status because they loose visibility to them in their reporting and tracking.
does any body dealth with this situation? any userexits, functional specs etc..
Your guidance will be very helpful,,
srikanth

Did you try using in order type/settlement profile the radio button which indicates can be settled and the not one which corresponds to 100% settlement. Hope this helps.

Batch no assigning during production order creation

Sir,
We are manitaining the batch management for inut raw materials. During production order creation it is mandatory to assign the batch no for raw materials then only production order releasing is possible.In our case due to batch assignement to production order while order creation,we are facing the lot of problems like batch no not assign for full req qty and also if unavailabilty of stock for particular batch no it will come to COGI.hereby i need experts help for,
1.I want to determine the batch no during confirmation instead of order creation and also allow to release the production order even batch should be in blank.
Kindly help
Regards,
PS

Hi
For Rawmaterials why cant'n you assign Batch nos buring GR of purchase order.
Then you can do automatic batch determination during confirmation of order for mvrmt type ;261...
This is easy to handle.
Please check and come back

Serial nos entry during production order confirmation in CO15 - User Exits

Hi all,
Is there any user exit existing for a serial nos screen pop-up during production order confirmation.
Regards,
Sravan Kumar V

Hi,
For serial numbers at the time of goods receipt, u have to activate sr. no. mgt for that particular finished product. This can be done by assigning sr. no. profile in the material master record of that material in work scheduling view. once this is done , system will automatically prompt for sr. nos at the time of goods receipt. I am not aware about any user exit.
Thanks & Regards,

Equipment as PRT's during Production Order Confirmation

Hi Gurus,
During Production Order confirmation I cannot see whether I have consumed equipments as PRT which are attached to operation.
The operation is showing CNF status as well the Order.
How can I see whether which Equipment was used for each operation since there can be more than one equipment as a PRT's for a single operation.
Regards
Nilesh

I use Production Order confirmation hence saw it in CO14 and checked that PRT's are in PRT REL status..I guess this is what you mean to say right??
Thank you so much for your response.

How to ignore Assembly Scrap of MRP during Production order Creation

Hi All,
We want to ignore the Assembly Scrap maintained in MRP View during production order creation.
We are maintaining assembly Scrap for planning so we do not want to remove that.
Please let us know if any User exit is there during Production Order Creation.
Thanks,
Amit

Dear Amit,
Assume in CO01,once after entering the total order quantity the system proposes the scrap quantity field separately,now
remove this quantity for scrap field and press enter and once again adjust the total quantity and check for what quantity the
system is proposing the BOM components.
check whether this works for your requirement.

Recording shift during Production order confirmation

Hi All,
Is there a way I can record the shift during production order confirmations using CO15, CO11 or CO11N? I do not see the shift field in the confirmation screen.
Thanks & Regards
Subbu SP

Dear,
If you don't want to use the standard functionality of SAP or you are on lower version then you can go ahead with enhancement.
CONFPP07 Single Screen Entry: Inclusion of User-Defined Subscreens by using this you can define shift in confirmation.
For more details refer this link,

SUBCONTRACT PROCESSING AGAINST PRODUCTION ORDER

DEAR GURUS,
SCENARIO - PRODUCTION ORDER HAS 10 OPERATIONS OUT OF WHICH OPERATION
10 TO 20 - IN HOUSE
20 TO 40 - EXTERNAL
40 TO 50 - IN HOUSE
60 - EXTERNAL
70 TO 100 IN HOUSE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE ENTIRE PROCESS WITH REGARD TO CREATION OF BOM, SUBCONTRACT PROCESS, MATERIAL MOVEMENT WITH RESPECT TO EXCISE ETC.,

Robert,
For the problematic order, you are having the order material which is having a different valuation class deriving the GL account/Cost Element.
I think the problem is because, system is deriving a Cost Element(Through GL account) during GR posting and that cost element is defined to "Revenue" posting. Please change the cost element category or use a correct cost element with right category. Please work with your FICO person on this.
I think in your case the cost element category is "11", you need to have the derivation to a cost element which is having category "1"
Regards,
Prasobh

Batch split during production order confirmation

Hi All,
This is the process which is followed at our customer end, they want to split the batches during confirmation,
1.Production order created
2.While going through each operation, some components are failing in the in-process inspection and they need to be quarantained for further process,(it may be rework, scrap, etc)
3.Now the question is we want to create individual batches, say for example out of 100qty which went operation number 10, 50 were found to be o.k. and the remaining 50 are having defects, we want to create two different batches for this scenario at the time of confirmation.
Is there anyway in SAP todo this , like userexit
Has anybody has gone through similar scenario's
Thanks in advance
Regards
Venkat.

Dear Vanket,
In the operation you can confirm Yield, Scrap and rework quantity.
In your case in each operation you need to create a batch for each qty what you enter.
As I told you before batch can be created either production order release or during GR.
In each operation you are not going to perform GR, hence batch creation is not possible.
You have 2 options as I see.
1. Create different intermediate materials and have production orders for each operation so that you can do the GR for each production order.
You can have the same batch for each stage material so that issuing material and production materials are different but batch is same.
If there is any defective quantity you need to decide you want to scrap it or you want to go for rework. If you want to go for rework then, using trigger point function you can create a auto rework order for the qty of rework entered during confirmation.
2. Second option is you can create a production order as you are doing now, but you need to create batch manually in MSC1n transaction for rework as well as yield qty.
You can confirm the yield qty and rework qty, but you cannot assign the batch as you are not performing GR. You can enter the batch number in the confirmation text field for information purpose. During the final operation when you do the GR, assign the batch to yield qty and post. About the rework qty you are not going to post qty to store, you need to create rework order and confirm the qty, during GR you can assign the batch and do GR.
If you ask me if you need to strict process to represent your case you need to go for first case.
Please go through the above carefully and test the cycle and come back if you need any clarification.

Error during Production Order creation

Hi All,
Our's is MTO scenario. We have maintiain Account Assigment Category as 'M' in Requirement Type. During creation on production order with ref to sales order system gives error "Account assignment cannot be carried out because of different origin no."
If I create the production order with ref to quotation system does not gives any error. But my requirement is to create the prod order with ref to sales order.
Please guide

Hi Bala,
In SPRO goto>Sales and Distribution> Basic Functions-->
Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements
-->
         Transfer of Requirements
-->
             Define Requirements Classes
             Define Requirements Types
-->      Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transaction
Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transaction
In the standard system, requirements types are determined according to a specific search strategy beginning with the material strategy group.
Strategy for Determining the Requirements Type
1. First, an attempt is made to find a requirements type using the strategy group in the material master.
2. If the strategy group has not been maintained, the system will determine it using the MRP group.
3. If the MRP group has not been defined, the system uses the material type instead of the MRP group when accessing the corresponding control tables.
4. If no requirements type is found here, the system assumes a special rule and attempts to find a requirements type with the aid of the item category and the MRP type.
5. If this is not possible, a last attempt is made to find a requirements type with the item category only.
6. If the last attempt fails, the system declares the transaction as not relevant for the availability check or transfer of requirements.
Note
You can select an alternative search strategy in the 'Source' field, for example a transaction-related procedure for determining requirements type (source = 1 or 2).
Example
There are business transactions, such as consignment stock processing, in which the material with its planning characteristics is not important, rather the transaction itself. An issue from the customer's consignment stock should not trigger an availability check against planning at the plant as layed down by the planning strategy but rather against special stock.
Actions
1. Assign the item categories and MRP type to the requirements types.
2. Select an alternative search strategy in the 'Source' field if necessary.
By assigning the 1 or 2 to the Source you can have the requirements in MD04 refered to order instead of the initial source document which is usually quotation. If we don't assign this then the system by default refers to the initail document created i.e. Inquiry or Quotation whichever is the first document.

Karthik.

Regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders

Hi,
I have a issue regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders.
Actually I am having a Z - Function Module in that i am passing production order number other details to
make the Goods Reversal happen.
The code for the above is as below:
 i_mvtit-material = wa_mdfa-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New
 i_mvtit-stge_loc = 'ZWIP'.
 i_mvtit-stge_type = i_resb-lgtyp. "New
 i_mvtit-batch = i_resb-charg. "New
 i_mvtit-orderid = i_resb-aufnr.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.
 i_mvtit-entry_qnt = i_resb-enmng.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = '262'.
 i_mvtit-xstob = 'X'.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = '03'.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
The Above code does the Goods Reversal but then i will update one Z Table with fields like
Production Order Number[AUFNR], Number of Reservation[RSNUM], Item Number of Reservation [RSPOS], Material Number [MATNR], Requirement Quantity [BDMNG], WBS element[PSPNR] etc. If Above BAPI runs sucessfully.
That is happening correctly.
But Then actual issue is i have do Goods Issue for those Z-Table records.
There i will give Production order Number's & Storage Location in Selection-Criteria.
Then i need to do Goods Issue for that order.
The code i had written as follows.
* POPULATE VALUES FOR BAPI CALL
 i_mvtit-material = i_zpsi7603_01-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New

 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.

 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = c_261.
 i_mvtit-mvt_ind = 'F'. "New
 i_mvtit-xstob = c_x.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = c_03.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
 EXPORTING
 wait = c_x.
 READ TABLE i_return INDEX 1.
 IF i_return-type EQ c_s.
 DELETE FROM zpsi7603_01 WHERE aufnr = i_resb-aufnr AND
 rsnum = i_resb-rsnum AND
 rspos = i_resb-rspos.
 ENDIF.
If i run above code for Goods Issue it is giving error can anybody tell me what changes i need to do to make it work.
The Error Message i am getting is as below:
Qty and / or "delivery completed" ind. or final issue ind. are missing
Error Number for the above is : 264.
Can anybody solve my issue.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Hi,
Thanks boss.
It is working now correctly.
The issue is the i_mvtit-XSTOB should be equal space in case of Goods issue while incase of Reversal it should be equal to X.
Thanks for ur efforts.
I had awarded you points.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

System status for IDOC creation and processing for production orders

All
I am creating IDOCs for production orders to send requirements to an external WM system for kitting execution.
I need to know whether there are any system statuses to notify me when an IDOC has been created,failed and processed. If not, how do I go about creating user defined statuses for these statuses.
Second question, which idocs should I use to confirm, teco and cancel the production orders from an external system?
Thanks
Evan

HI Evan
u can use the standard program - RBDMOIND scheduled in back ground to update the Idoc staus ,
this helps to update the IDoc Status from
'03 Data passed to port OK ' to
'12 Dispatch OK'
status 03 indicates the IDoc is successfully transmitted to Communication Layer and the Status 12 helps to confirm the data dispatch to the receiving port.
