Warehouse Setup

Dear All,
Can anyone help in maping following scenarioo for warehouse.
Our client maintains inventory in follwing manner:
There is only 1 Main warehouse for eg WH01.
This warehouse is divided in to different segments like Shelf and Blocks. The structure is as follows:
Warehouse--ShelfBlockLevel-----Final Destination of Material
WH01--S1A1--
WH01-S1-A1
WH01--S1A2--
WH01-S1-A2
WH01--S1A3--
WH01-S1-A3
WH01--S1A4--
WH01-S1-A4
Like wise total is as follows:
No of Shelf: 6 ( S1 to S6)
No of BLocks: 13 ( A to M)
No of Levels: 4 (Leval 1 to Level 4).
This will be general scenarion for companies which stores material in such manner.
Any solutions for the same will be highly appreciated.
S.R.P.

Hi!
I have two recommendations for the same,
1. Create as many combination of warehouse.
-- This will help u to track the stock at its exact location.
-- You can avail all the SAP B1 Reports for inventory.
2. Create only warehouses, not those shelf,...
-- Manage those details in Document Level using the help of UDF's.
-- The Report Precision will highly depend on Data Entery.
-- No SAP Default Reports will help.
-- Customised Reports only give expected output.
-- Very Difficult to do Opening Balances, Stock Counting, Revaluations etc..
450 warehouse in not a matter. But, you should be very keen in adding warehouse to items. Don't add all warehouses to all items.

Finding Line Number of Warehouses in OITW

Hi Experts,
I need to use DTW to update minimum and maximum stock amounts for a Warehouse in my Items, Stock tab. I figure this is the quickest way to update over 2000 items in B1.
Trouble is that although I have this warehouse in every item it is not always at the same row number so I thought I would be able to firstly export the row number from each of the items I need to import. But I can't find anywhere in B1 or SQL which tells me what row number each warehouse is at.
Is there any other way to import into the warehouse rows? i have tried using the warehouse code but it doesn't appear to work.
Regards
Jon

Hi Johnny,
In the oitems as you have the items, prices and warehouses CSV files.
The LineNum for warehouse start from 0 as the order is from the warehouse setup in administration the column AF in warehouses CSV has the warehouse code, you can enter the warehouse code and then upate the entire list.

Nettable option in Stock Warehouse

Hi Experts,
What exactly does the nettable option do in the Warehouses setup screen? The help screen states only "Select this check box if you want the warehouse to be involved in the MRP process."
Thanks

Hi Greig,
You may check SAP Note Number: 896231 and these threads first to see:
Warehouse settings
In Stock number in Sales Order Screen includes non-nettable warehouses

Picking from warehouse for Consignment Fill Up

Dear Friends,
For the Consignment Fill Up flow , I am not able to create a transfer order for the delivery.
I am getting the below error :
Data for storage type search is not defined (A )
But from the same plant, I am able to do picking through transfer order for normal sales order.
Is there any specific setting that needs to be maintained for the Consignment Fill up flow with regard to warehouse setup.
Please advise.
Regards,
Harsh

Dear Harsh,
I'm very sorry, I think I misunderstood your question.
1. You can do outbound delivery (picking+GI) from consignement stock.
2. You have problem when you want to create TO from TR that was created when goods arrived at your WH.
You said you cannot create TO. I guess you can create TO, your problem is that SAP can't find automatically into which bins to move the goods when you process the TR (are creating the TO). Please confirm it.
(you can give the destination storage typr/bin manually)
If your problem is this you can check your settings:
SPRO > LE > WM > Strategies > Storage Type Search (+ S. Section Search + S. Bin S.)
Here you can choose 'Determine search sequence' > Please select the relevant line, that you use for the putaway of normal goods > copy it and write 'K' in 'special stock indicator' field.
I do not know your settings but maybe this information can help you to start to resolve the problem you are facing.

Purchase Order With Different Warehouse Items

I have problem in creating the purchase order for the items belonging to 2 different warehouses.
When I create the Purchase order it shows the error as
Cannot retrieve tax information message [80508-2]

Hello,
No, I am referring to warehouse setup --> general tab.
Are you creating one item that will be received by 2 warehouses or more items and more warehouses ?
actually the error can be caused by tax group setup in item master data and business partner. Check also field tax information in the module admin --> system initialisation --> accounting tab. maybe you forget to define the tax info there.

Warehouse Excisable tick mark in 2007B

I have updated database in SAP 2007B (DB backup was taken in SAP 2005B). In Administration -Setup- Inventory- Warehouses window excisable tick mark is grey shaded (disabled) for existing warehouse. Also if I try to add a new warehouse the excisable check box is not enabled. Please explain how to activate this exisable check box in warehouse setup. TIA.

try this , hope it helps

Warehouse items question

Warehouse Item Records question
When creating a New Warehouse then automatically New Item records are also created. The Item Records created for the New Warehouse are empty Item records based on the Original warehouse initially created when we started the system. I wonder if these New Item Master records(empty) created are Mandatory or is it an option in the Initialisation or Setup. In other words, can I create a New Warehouse WITHOUT any associated Item Master Records, just an emty warehouse where I can add my own stock Items?
Also, does anybody know how to Delete these new Blank Master Stock Items created in this new Warehouse.
The main reason I want to Delete these Master Items is to enable me to Delete the Whole new warehouse I have created by mistake! At present I cannot Delete the warehouse because of all these Master items that SAP creates by default.
Thanks for your help for this funny problem - yes it is funny because I only pressed * to search for the Codes of my existing warehouses, but I was in the ADD mode, so it crreated a new warehouse called * and a lot empty Master Item records.
I hope this makes sense
Robert

Yes, SAP B1 has a feature where, when the check box to 'Auto Add All Warehouses to New Items' under 'General Settings' --> Inventory Tab.
However, the feature works a little differently then what you've described. What it does is that it actually creates the new warehouse automatically for any newly created inventory item. This feature can come in handy when you have say, 6 warehouses setup within SAP B1 and you've just created a new inventory item. You wont have to manually add all 6 warehouses to the new inventory item.
There is somewhat of an issue with the Warehouse form, because it opens in the "Add" mode by default, and you're not the first user to accidently hit ' * ' and create a new warehouse with the * name. When this happens, SAP B1 will auto create the * warehouse to all current inventory items.
At this point in time, there is no method to batch remove the * warehouse except to do it manually by hand.

What gets copied when you copy a warehouse?

Hi
We are debating whether to copy one of our existing warehouses or the SAP standard for our new warehouse setup.
Does someone know what are the things that get copied when you copy a warehouse ? (eg storage types , Storage locations etc.... ) Would any customized transactions that we have in our existing warehouse be copied ( eg: customized RF transactions etc)
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi,
It copies only standard warehouse structure. It will not copy customized ones.
Thanks,

Warehouse created in error

Hi Experts
I have created a warehouse code in error which I now need to remove. However, when I try to remove I get an error which tells me it cannot be removed as it is linked to items. There are no stock transactions linked to the warehouse so why can it not be removed?
Regards
Jon

Hi Jon,
as I said above, as long as there are no transactions on the wh you will be able to remove it, regardless of whether there are items linked to it or not. The sole exception is where this wh is defined as being the default wh for an item, then you need to revoke the default allocation before you can remove the wh using this path:
Administration -> Setup-> Stock Management -> Warehouses -> Find the wh you wish to delete -> in the 'Warehouses-Setup' window right-click & select 'remove' from the menu, then confirm that you wish to remove this wh.
Please note that you need to be in a patch equal or higher than 2007A Sp01 pl06 or 2007b pl15.
All the best,
Kerstin

Unable to release OPM Batch in R12

Hi gurus,
We are implementing R12 OPM and using the shared version of unconstrained ASCP planning.
We are not able to release OPM batch planned orders to OPM execution.
The profile Auto Implement planning suggestion to APS is set as No and ran the "Auto Release of Planning suggestions for APS" concurrent request manually gives error message as
"Profile Update activity offset is not set",
Searched thro metalink and could not able to get the solution.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Suresh

First try to create plan batch manually in Production Module.
If it allows you to create and save planned batch (FPO) then the issue is with ASCP-OPM integration.
If you are unable to create planned batch manually, check for:
1) Plant-warehouse setup in MPS
2) Document ordering
3) Valid effecivity for the item
I am not sure if all of these are still required in R12, but they are required in 11.5.10
If you are able to create FPO manually then there might be issue in integration where some setup steps is missing. You need to follow all the setup steps mentioned in ASCP-OPM integration manual.

Can't disconnect from other computer on the local network

We have several Mac's (6) running in our small office, connected via wifi and ethernet. One of the computers we call the "warehouse" and is used as our storage unit and to run 3 filemaker databases. This warehouse is still running OS X 7, while the others are all running Mavericks.
The Issue:
When we click on "SHARED" or through "DEVICES" the warehouse shows up as connected via VNC. If I click "Disconnect" nothing happens. If I go the "GO" menu and use "CONNECT TO SERVER" and enter the static IP we have the warehouse setup with it connects fine. Then if I go back to the "SHARED" it still says "Connected as:VNC" and if I hit disconect it will kill my connection but the view below still stays the same and the only choice it ever gives me is "DISCONNECT"! I've rebooted the watrehouse and my Mac.
Now, if I go to another computer (13" macbook air)...and click "SHARED" nothing shows up....The only way I can connect is using the "go" menu and the IP.
This has only been since upgrading to Mavericks.

Hi

Samples

I have a client that provides samples of their product to selected customers. The transaction needs to relieve inventory, but should post to an expense account rather than Cost of Goods Sold. She also needs to print a document similar to a packing ticket with Customer Name and address. Now I am using an inventory issue to hit the promotions expense account and creating a Sales Order to generate the document. My client finds this burdensome. Any ideas?

Hi Tony,
The way Inventory G/L is setup would detemine the route to go to make this work.
If you Inventory is set by Warehouse
Then you could do an Inventory transfer to the Sample warehouse and ship from the Sample WH. You will need to change the COGS G/L account in the Warehouse setup to an expense account.
If you Inventory is set by Items Groups
This would probably involve lot more steps. But I still will provide the steps.
Goods Issue of Item A. Then Goods Receipt of Item A Sample into another Group whose G/L determination is set with the Expense Account in place of COGS and then deliver this item.
If neither of the above work for your Client, then you current sequence would be the only option.

Unable to close PO

HI all,
We are on SRM 5.0 ECS.THe flow is : Ext PR-->created SC in SRM >PO>GR-->INV
We are trying to close some PO's but get the foll error:
Document item "PR #/Item #" has not yet been carried forward to the current year
Posting in fis. yr 2011 is not possible; in FM ope n doc."PR#" in fis. yr 2009
Please advise.

Are you doing JIT processes? Are you using DIMP Automotive ? If yes, then it could be caused by a bug which is fixed with OSS note 1634429 - VL09: Goods movement reversal scenario with warehouse
Are you eventually still in release 45A or B? In that case this error can be fixed with 137983 - Error in WM when reversing GI for delivery
At least it is not normal that this error message comes up.
As said it maybe caused that the info in the delivery does not fit anymore to the current warehouse setup, or by a program bug. You may need to contact SAP as this needs a deep analysis
