Warehouse receiving using vendor EAN/UPC code

Is it possible to capture the vendor EAN/UPC code and use this information to receive the goods in the warehouse/plant?
First issue would be how to deal with duplicate vendor EAN/UPC.
I have seen many posts where it is possible in IS-AFS but has anyone done this in standard R/3?
Thanks

You can certainly search by EAN/UPC when performing GR with MIGO. Click on the binoculars and it's the fifth field available to search via.
So as long as you have the code set against the material master . . .

  • EAN/UPC code.... CARTON-ID (13 digit)  as HU ID in EWM

    Hi All,
    My client currently uses EAN/UPC code.... CARTON-ID (13 digit) as an which vendor will print on CARTON and send it.
    Its  sap IS-Retails system . No HU-managed and No Sap WM managed.
    Now client is going for EWM impl, where it requires HU ID Number to automate follow-on process.  Client is asking US to use the same CARTON-ID  as HU ID in EWM process. ( we suggested to assign Number range to Vendors or Stick HU labels Manually at warehouse to automate the process)
    It is possible to use CARTON-ID as HU ID number in EWM?  kindly suggest very urgent.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Rahman,
    Lets assume you are dealing with outbound deliveries and you have raised an outbound delivery in ERP and this gets replicated to EWM.
    When you do the picking and packing for this delivery, it would look for packing profile behind the Warehouse order and when it creates an HU, it asks for HU or takes it from preceding document.
    This again depends on the Number range you defined.
    There is a BADI /SCWM/EX_WHO_DSTGRP, which you could control to pass your own HU id here(Could be for example your carton ID).
    You could use similar concept with slight modifications during your goods receipt also.

  • EAN/UPC CODE and PURCHASING GRID

    Hi Experts,
    In material master can you please let me know how to configure,
    1)    EAN/UPC Code configuration in Material Master
    2)    Purchasing grid
    I need the info urgently.
    Regards,
    Subha

    Hi Subha,
    1)The EAN/UPC's configuration is done in the path
    SPRO>Logistics general>Material Master>Settings for key fields>Internal article numbers:
    Here we can define external or internal number ranges for the EAN's.We can also define the prefix for EAN/UPCs and define the attributes of the EAN/UPCs.
    2) Grids are used in AFS(Appearl and Footware system).There are material grid,purchase grid and sales grids in Appearl and footware industry.
    We have to define Charecterstics and using them we have to define a grid(matrix type).While creating a material master this purchase grid has to be assigned in the AFSpurchasing view of the AFS material.
    For example--Shirt(material)- Silk cloth white colour 40 size,Silk cloth golden colour 42 size,cotton cloth blue colour 40 size.Here cloth,colour,size are the 3 charecters.Using these 3 charecters a grid is created.This grid is assigned to the material.With this we can have n number of combinations for a single material.

  • EAN/UPC code in the material master

    Hi all,
    Does anybody have the scenario where the UPC number of a product is the same as the SCC number displayed on the container that holds this product with the difference being the EAN category and the leading zeroes? For example: UPC of a bottle is 080686001409 with EAN category = UC (length = 12 digits) and SCC of the case is 00080686001409 with EAN category = SC (length = 14 digits). The number is externally assigned. SAP does not let you enter these 2 codes in the master data. When you enter the second code, 00080686001409 and ctg SC for example, SAP automatically changes it back to the first code 080686001409 and maintains ctg SC. So now I have the same code with 2 different categories (and one of them u2013 SC u2013 has an incorrect length).
    Please let me know if you have this scenario and what you have done to solve it.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi ,
    I am also facing the same problem. The system not allowed saving the same EAN/UPC number for multiple SKUu2019s with varying number of leading zeros.
    For example: UPC length 12 digits value like 085267207850 with EAN category Z3 and SCS length 14 digits value like 00085267207850 with EAN category Z5. The number is externally assigned. SAP does not let you enter these 2 codes in the master data. When you enter the second code, 00085267207850  and category Z5, SAP automatically changes it back to the first code 085267207850 and maintains category Z5. So now I have the same code with 2 different categories (and one of them u2013 Z5 u2013 has an incorrect length).
    Could you please let me know what you have done to solve it.

    Please help..

    Hi,
    Through the table "MARM",i can only see the UPC/EAN codes equivalent to the data present in the basic data of the material master.
    But i am not able to get the grid values for which the EAN/UPC is not maintained in the additional data of material master.

  • Report with EAN/UPC by article/vendor

    We are looking for a report of EAN/UPC numbers by article.  We would like to be able to select by Article, Vendor and/or Merchandise Category.  If there are multiple EAN/UPCs by vendor, each should be listed with it's category.
    Although I could write such a report in ABAP, it seems that this should be a standard report.  Does any one know a t-code for such a report?
    Thanks in advance,
    Deb

    I donot think there is a standard report to List the materials (Or Articles in IS - Retail) by EAN numbers.
    I do not know the Business requirement, but I can tell you that when you go to MM03 and ask for the list of matrials, you can select the materials based on the selection Criteria (List materials by EAN), which will give you all the matrials for which EAN has been maintained.
    Unlucky. MM60 does not have the option you are looking
    Hope this helps.

  • Is third-party SO/PO  process possible using only one company code?

    Hi friend,
    1) my client wants to implement third-party PO process but also wants a way of keeping track of inventory during this process. I know that inventory should be tracked on the vendor side and not on our client side since we're doing third-party PO.
    However my client wants to track inventory (in an inventory g/l account like 120100) so that when my client post a Goods Receipt, the inventory account
    gets Debited and when client post  the outgoing invoice to customer, the inventory account gets Credited. In this way, my client can track
    if the customer have received the ordered item or not.
    The problem is that third-party PO posts to consumption account but DOES NOT post to inventory account. Is there any way of
    setting this up so that in addition to posting to comsumption account every time a Goods Receipt occurs?
    2) i tried to create "Individual Purchase Order" (customer order from client -> client order from
    vendor -> vendor ships item to client -> client then ships item to customer) so that posting will hit inventory account.
    However, i find that taking this approach involves setting up a Plant for vendor (A), a Plant for our Client (B), and a Plant for Customer (C).
    Because when i do a Goods Receipt, the stock has move from Plant A to Plant B. Then when i do a Goods Issue to the customer, it asks for the receiving plant. I assume this means that the stock moves from Plant B to Plant C.  
    Also, from the reading i did on the forum, i get the impression that i need to create more than one Company Code if i were to do
    third-party PO.  Do the Vendors have to be created in a different company code then the Customer? Or does it mean that Just the
    plant (like Plant A) needs to be created in a different Company Code then Plant B and Plant C?
    3) can i do third-party PO using only ONE company code?
    Can anyone provide some clarification on this issue? I've read tons of posting but none really helped clear  this issue up.
    Thanks so much.

    Dear Kishore,
    Individual PO processing is not third party process at all. In third party process the vendor delivers the goods dirctly to the customer - please check what SAP help says.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/dd/5601d4545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/content.htm
    Dear Queyen,
    One important point of third party process is that there's no need to keep stock of materials - that is in harmony with reality. Why does your customer want to keep stock from the goods if they doesn't receive at all? Is it coreect? It doesn't correspond to the fact.
    You can do statistical (ghost) GR against the third-party PO and you can see the goods movement in MB51 - I think this should be enough.

  • Down payment received from vendor

    Hi,
    i have the system where the standard is providing the Downpayment paid to vendor with acct type-K, and down payment received from customer-acct type -D.
    How can we cater the senario where the compay receives the downpayment from Vendor (which is similar to customer) but when i try to create using Acct type-k the system does not allow me create.
    Kindly advice and treat this as urgent ...........
    best regards
    raj

    Dear George,
    Good morning and greetings,
    The account types are pre-defined in the following way
    A - Assets
    D - Customer
    K - Vendor
    M - Material
    S - GL
    You cannot create anything of this sort in the standard system.  Moreover, I am not getting your requirement, downpayment is normally paid to Vendor and received from customer.  If you are treating a vendor as a customer also, then all you have to do is in the Control screen of Vendor you have an option of defining the customer code for that vendor and thereby the vendor and customer code are interlinked.
    Kindly let me know if this meets your requirement and please let me understand your business need...if this reply is found useful please reward points.
    Thanking you
    With kindest regards

  • EAN/UPC# in Basic Data1

    Hello,
    Some basic information needed to understand the process better.
    Can you tell me in MM01 - material master if it is a requirement to use the UC# in the EAN/UPC field in Basic Data 1?
    Should the EAN/UPC field reflect what the customer is sending in on their orders?
    Thanks,
    Victor

    Hi,
    If you sell products to a distributor or a retailer, those products may need a UPC bar code that represents a "Global Trade Item Number (GTIN)
    In SAP, you have to define attributes for EAN Category say "UC" through SPRO
    Logistics General-Material Master-Setting for Key fields-International Article NumbersDefine attributes for EAN
    The following field has to be entered as per your requirement.
    EAN category
    Number range object
    Int. number range
    Ext. number range
    Check-digit algor.
    Fresh produce prefix
    EAN length
    W4EN is the tcode for creating number range for EAN codes.
    Please let me know if you have any questions.
    Thanks,

  • Bank guarantees (BGs) received from Vendors

    Hello
    We are on ECC 6.0
    Vendors are paid in advance against submission of BGs.
    Similarly, retention withheld as per agreed terms of Purchase order is released before expiry of warranty / guarantee period against submission of BGs by vendors.
    How do we capture BGs received from vendors in SAP?
    What are the relevant t codes?
    How do we create special gl indicators for such transactions?
    Do we need to create a separate GL Account for BGs received from vendors?
    Thanks.
    Vimal

    I used the standard special GL indicator L meant for Account type K.
    I checked on / selected noted item under Properties.
    I selected others under Special gl transaction types.
    Posting keys assigned are 29 (Dr to vendor) and 39 (Cr to vendor).
    I created a separate GL A/c for BGs received from Vendors and assigned it to vendor reconciliation a/c.
    I did all above through FBKP t code.
    I assigned this Special GL A/c for BGs received for Account type K and Special gl indicator P in OBXS t code for transaction key SGA (Automatic statistical offsetting entry).
    However, when i try to post this as a noted item through F-57, I get the following error after entering 39 posting key; Special gl indicator P for document type KA -
    Special G/L indicator P is not defined here
    Message no. F5875
    Let me know what i am missing here.
    Thanks.

  • Where can I find the batch no (or UPC code or Lot no) in the Delivery doc?

    Hi all,
    I am using 4.6c . I send the IDoc DESADV to my customer and they get the EDI document which their translator converts back to IDoc. I need to find this information in the delivery document (vl03n):
    lot no., batch no. UPC code. so that I can populate them in the outbound IDoc.
    I could find the batch no in the table LIPS in the field CHARG. and I know in the EDI, the segment is SLN where this information is stored, but where is this in the actual delivery document (and the outbound IDoc)?
    Please ask me if my question should be elaborated.. Hope you can tell me the tab and the field in the Delivery document (it could be at header or item level.)
    Thanks,
    Charles.

    Hi there Charles,
    Batch number is in DESADV IDOC in field E1EDP09 CHARG.  In VL03N, you can drill down into a line item, and go the the Batch Split tab to see this number.
    I don't believe UPC number is a standard SAP field.  There is a EAN (European Article Number) field which can be used like the UPC field if needed. 
    I have a case where a customer sends a UPC and lot number on their order, and needs to see it back on the EDI shipping notice.  I store these values in custom text fields, which pass from the order, back to the DESADV IDOC after delivery.  From there, I can include them in the EDI back to the customer.
    Regards,
    Aaron

  • Issue with UPC codes in Inbound sales orders via EDI.

    Hi All
    We are on ECC 6.0. We have incoming sales orders through EDI IDOCS. In the incoming IDCO the customer can provide either of the following information in that sequence.
    1.  GTIN number
    2.  Customer material number
    3.  UPC code
    4.  Old Product code.
    We need to derive the correct material number for each customer. Now I can achieve this through standard material determination using material determination type access sequences in the order specified above. However I cannot do the same, as we need to use material determination for genuine promotions. For example I can maintain a material determination record to map UPC 123456789 to Material number ABC in SAP R/3. However we do have situation where in for a particular season or depending upon the ATP situation we may have to derive Material XYZ (SAP material number) in case customer orders material ABC. So in other words if I use material determination to derive my SAP material number for in-coming IDOCS based on UPC codes then I would need to have multi level material determination. I.e. From an IDOC for UPC code 1234566789 I derive material ABC and then for material ABC derive material XYZ.
    I tried setting up these two layers of material determination in the standard system. It is possible only if I use a substitution reason which copies the material entered as a sub-item. We do not want to maintain the sub-item in sales order and relevant documents for a lot of other reasons. Is there a way I can use standard Material determination/substitution to derive this multi level search without haveing to copy the sub-item in sales order? Am I missing some settings here? If not is it possiblt to suppress the sub item from being derived in SAP using some user exit in sales order processing?
    For an IDOC I could have used standard SAP tables to identify SAP material number based on UPC code. However the problem is we have multiple SAP material numbers assigned to one UPC code. So it is not possible to identify a unique material number just based on the UPC code.
    I would like to know if any of you experts have encountered a similar situation and if so what is the ideal way to resolve this issue. Any comments/suggestions/guidance is welcome. You can also reply at my e-mail id [email protected].
    Thanks

    Hi Daniel,
    Can you please which IDoc message type you are using to create sales order using IDoc?
    Also check in IDoc, what is the value of ACTION & EINKZ fields in segment E1EDP01?
