Country of Origin in Item Master

Dear All,
We have a database field by name "CountyOrg" in item master. But I cannot find any field in front-end where I can view the data I have imported in this field thru DTW (ItemCountryOrg). I have items where I would like to save their country of origin as each item is unique to one country. Please let me know what is the use of this field in SAP and if I import the country name here will it effect/restrict any of my transaction in SAP.

Hi,
The function module BAPI_PRDSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2 (Create or Change Products) can be called in the z pogram like any other function module call in a z program. After the data definations, tables "product_head" and "product_head_X" need to be passed the values, along with other import values like Logical system , business system group etc.
Your technical consultant should be able to work out smoothly.
Hope this helps.

Material Origin in Material Master

Hi Guru,
I'd like to ask if there is any configor any way that Material Origin in Costing Tab 1 of Material Master has tick for all materials.
Thanks.
Ellen

Dear Ellen,
In my understanding its not possible to make this field as a check box filled with a tick mark for material
origin while creating the material master.
Still if you need you can get some help from your ABAP consultant is it possible to make it possible
through some enhancements.
For the created one check in MM17 to do a mass change.
You can have a look on T Code OMS9 to create a new selection group by having only the field mateiral
origin - MBEW- HKMAT and try to make the option as required entry.
Check with this and revert back.

VL02N - Country of Origin Updation

Hi,
I have a requirement to default Country of Origin field in VL02N Transaction for each line item under Foreign Trade/Customs Tab -> Origin / Destination / Business Tab.
For this to be happen, I have used a function module EXPIMP_POSTING in the user exit Z_MV50AFZ1_6, which will update the country of origin field perfectly.
The problem occurs here -> The function module requires an input EXNUM (Number of foreign trade data in MM and SD documents) which is obtained from LIKP table. This Number will get generated only when the Delivery has some foreign trade data.
Is there any other way to update this Country of origin field without passing EXNUM field to this function module or do we have any other function module or exit for such requirement?
Thanks,
Dhanalakshmi M S

Intrastat - country of origin unknown

Hello,
in Czech republic is possible to present Country of origin unknown in certain cases in Intrastat reports, where the vendor is not able to provide the information about the real country of origin of material.
For such cases I have customized the new Country of origin called "QU - origin unknown" in Country global parameters (OY01) as well as in foreign trade data for MM (VI78).
But when I ran the periodic declaration for import in ENPA, the items of documents with COO QU still fall down into Incompletion log, because of non existing Country of origin QU. But in fact the Country of origin QU is assigned correctly in purchase order document.
Can somebody help?
Thanks

BAPI to Update Country of Origin for Delivery Item

Hello All,
I have a requirement as follows.
For an Outbound delivery item (VL02N), I need to update the 'Country of Origin' (EIPO-HERKL). This will come in 'Origin/Destination/Business' tab under 'Foreign Trade /Customs' tab for the delivery item. Could anyone please tell me if there is
a BAPI to do the same.
I think this country of origin is not the country of origin for the material, because even if the material is having a value for country of origin in material master, the same is not reflecting in the delivery.
Thanks and Regards
Indrajit

Hi,
Try using the FM ''EXPIMP_POSTING".
Refer to the sample code.
PARAMETERS p_deliv TYPE vbeln.
DATA: lt_xeikp TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF eikpvb,
      lt_xeipo TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF eipovb,
      lx_xeikp TYPE eikpvb,
      lx_xeipo TYPE eipovb,
      lv_exnum TYPE exnum.
SELECT SINGLE exnum
       FROM likp
       INTO lv_exnum
       WHERE vbeln = p_deliv.
lx_xeikp-exnum = lv_exnum.
APPEND lx_xeikp TO lt_xeikp.
lx_xeipo-exnum = lv_exnum.
lx_xeipo-expos = '000010'.
lx_xeipo-herkl = 'US'.
lx_xeipo-updkz = 'U'.
APPEND lx_xeipo TO lt_xeipo.
CALL FUNCTION 'EXPIMP_POSTING' IN UPDATE TASK
TABLES
    fxeikp = lt_xeikp
    fxeipo = lt_xeipo.
COMMIT WORK.
Thanks,

Country of Origin deletion in batch master

Experts,
When I post physical inventory differences via MI07 the field Country of origin in batch master is automatically deleting. Even the batch master log confirms the same.
Your suggestion is welcome.
Naren

OSS note 619913 explains:
batch data such as country of origin, region of origin, and freely available date fields can be changed in user exits only.
To newly create a batch in goods movement, use exit EXIT_SAPMM07M_003.
I have not used this fields before so I am not certain if you have to take care about these fields in MI07 yourself.
I am the opinion that existing data should not be effected with a quantity adjustment.
check OSS and if you dont find anything, then open a call at SAP.

Country of origin is required in MIGO

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement where we need to input the country of origin while doing MIGO. This in turn should reflect in MMBE stock overview.
I know this can be possible using split valuation where we can assign valuation category as ORIGIN in material master.
But our requirement is that we should not use moving avg price for a material & it should be Standard price. Using standard price I cannot assign valuation category.
Can you all please let us know is there any standard settings for getting this? Or should we going for customization?
Please advise.

Hi,
MCHA-HERKL is not automatically updated based on the purchase order
during a goods receipt. You must use user exit EXIT_SAPMM07M_003
and read there the PO information for setting MCHA-HERKL. Use this exit
to set this field for goods movement transactions (MIGO, MB01, etc.).
For batches created in all other applications, you must use user exit
EXIT_SAPLV01Z_013 to set the field.
Also, can you please review the attached note :
619913 FAQ: Basic functions of batch management
3 Question:
How can batch master data be valuated in goods movement?
