WIP @ annual physical
We are a discrete manufacturer in a fabricate to stock...assemble to order environment. In the process of implementing 11i...coming from a legacy system. How does Oracle handle WIP jobs at the annual physical inventory? Last year we had around 2,600 jobs that had either labor/material or both applied at the time we took our "snapshot" of inventory. We typically backflush our end item assemblies and push our fabricated/machined piece parts.
Unfortunately Oracle has NO WIP inventory module unless you
place the jobs into a Dummy Subinventory of WIP.
We have used the following work around to take inventory of our
WIP jobs.
Create a Physical Inventory for the WIP jobs. Specific
Subinventory - any you choose. Take a snapshot.
Generate TAGS (ALL BLANK). This will give you something to write
your info on.
We then export the Oracle Standard report WIP Location report.
This shows the WIP job, Operation and Quantity.
This is then imported into an Access Database table as the
baseline. A screen form has been created looking like the
Inventory Ticket .
We then enter the info from the ticket to the Access Database
form and subsequently run comparison reports of Baseline VS
Ticket file.
Any discrepancies can be adjusted through normal WIP
transactions, such as WIP Move, WIP material ISSUE etc.
Hope this helps.

EWM: Annual Physical Inventory Issue
Hello together!
I'm looking for cute (use SAP default) solution for the following problem:
For a EWM warehouse in Turkey it's possible to do Ad-hoc physical inventory for products during the year. Nevertheless it's necessary to do a complete annual physical inventory due to legal regulations. But the SAP default provides message "Storage bin XY was already inventoried in the physical inventory year" when trying to start the annual physical inventory.
Is it possible to avoid this message and proceed the annual physical inventory? Is it possible to delete the Ad-hoc physical inventory results to be able to start the annual physical inventory? I found transaction "/SCWM/PI_COMPL_DEL" to delete completeness data sets?!?
Thank you very much for your help!
best regards
AlexanderHi Alexander!
When you create PI document in /SCWM/PI_DOC_CREATE set the checkbox "Include Inventoried Objects"

WIP Inventory at time of physical inventory
Discrete Manufacturer in 11.5.9. Looking for alternatives for handling WIP at the time of annual physical inventory. Have approximately 1800 released jobs of which more than 75% are pure "push" type jobs and the standard wip valuation report will fit the requirements. However for the remainder of the jobs there is a mix between operation pull and assembly pull which are in various stages of completion. On top of that we have many phantom assemblies that could be in-process on these jobs. How do you account for items that are out of the storage containers, built up on the line but not yet on the job? Thanks in advance.
We had the same issue a few years ago. We created a separate process to handle work in process inventory, exactly as you described. We created a report to print tags, then we created a separate form to allow entry of the tags. We then can compare counts to what is in work in process. We manually adjust the work orders as needed. Not a perfect process, but it works. I don't believe there is anything in Oracle to handle inventory that is still in WIP.
Hope this helps.

Physical Inventory Movement Block not Rest at Storage Location Level
Hi,
We are facing a typical problem in our Production System and the issue is as follows:
1. We have created a Physical Inventory Document for a material with Freeze Book Inventory and Posting Block indicators.
2. We completed the count and entered the same with reference to the PI Document.
3. We reconciled and posted the differences in the system.
4. We still find that in Material Master the Physical Inventory block for material movements was not reset automatically at the Storage Location stock view.
Please help us urgently as all our Goods movements for this material are held up.
ThanksHi,
I am able to see 4 PIDs in MI22 for my material.
2 docs pertaining to the latest Annual Physical Inventory in 2010.
These documents are for the same material in the same plant but for different Storage Locations. Out of which when i see the Material Master - Storage Location view, i see that the Physical Inventory Block "X" is set for one of the Storage Locations.
The PID for the Storage Location with this Physical Inventory Block for Movements indicator, is already settled (Count done and no differences in physical and book stock in this storage location).
The problem persists and i need to remove the posting block which was not reset. -
Is there any way to prevent users from ship confirming on a particular date?
Hello All,
We have a requirement to prevent users from ship confirming on a particular date. This is due to they are performing Annual Physical Inventory.
Is it possible to restrict users performing shipping transactions on this particular date?
I have tried adding exception to the existing Calendar set at org level and there is no customer specific Calendar defined, however it is still allowing me to perform ship confirm.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion on this requirement.
ThanksHi,
Yes is Possible.
You can add An Exception in Your Shipping Calender.
So when Some one tries to ship an Order on that date Oracle will automatically select Next possible date.
Thanks

Edited by: user482467 on Jun 23, 2009 2:38 AMHi Vijay,
Adding some more points,
The Sunopsis JDBC driver for XML is installed with Sunopsis, and requires a license to run. This license key file, jdbcxkey.xml , must be copied into your Sunopsis installation folder's /drivers sub-directory.
After installing this file, you must restart Sunopsis for the license file to be taken into account.
Do you have jdbcxkey.xml file in your installation folder? I hope its not and thats the reason for your exception.
Please check the same.
Thanks,

After attempting secure erase, iMac w/homemade fusion drive won't boot from *anything*
2009 iMac with homemade fusion drive (SSD installed in optical bay). Was working fine with Yosemite until I attempted to secure erase it before giving away the machine.
Now the drive is borked. Disk utility could make no sense of it, can't reformat, it can't repartition it. And now it has completely stopped booting. I cannot even get it to boot of an external USB drive anymore (the original operation was performed while booted from a Yosemite installer drive on a USB stick).
I've reset the PRAM, reset the SMC, and just nothing. All boots are attempted from internal messed up fusion drive, which eventually ends in the "prohibitory sign".
I'm not even sure what to try at this point. Any suggestions out there?Thank you for the reply. I have since resolved the problem, although not in the most satisfactory way.
Here's what I did:
Pulled both drives out of the iMac, put them into a USB dock, and reformatted each one. Both drives appeared at this point to be fine.
Reinstalled both drive into the iMac, and started up from a USB drive. No problem.
Recreated the fusion drive from the terminal. No problem.
Now, because I am a glutton for punishment, I tried wiping the fusion drive again. This time, part way in, it kernel panicked. Luckily, I was able to reboot once again to the external drive.
At this point, the fusion drive was in the exact same messed up state as when I started. Disk Utility app could do nothing with it.
Fortunately, this time I went right to the command line, and was able to fix things up and recreate the fusion drive before anything else bad happened.
I gave up on wiping the drive for now. If I need to do so in the future, I will disable the fusion drive and try to wipe each physical drive separately.
I should note that this iMac has never given a spot of trouble before now, so I am highly suspicious of the way disk utility tries to wipe a fusion drive. I certainly won't try it again. (I don't know if it has ever kernel-panicked before in the 5 years I've owned it). -

How do I download an OS (Lion) for a used-IMac that's had a complete memory wipe?
I just recently bought a used-Imac (only 5 months old) from a friend of mine which he did a complete memory wipe on the computer. Operating System and all. He had Mountain Lion which is the operating system the computer is asking me to reinstall but I can't because my apple I.D. never purchased Mountain Lion. He told me that he got it illegally which I didn't care too much for. I know the OS is only $20 which I would gladly pay for but the problem is that I have to have OS X v10.7 Lion to be able to download it. I tried downloading a version of it but it had said that I didn't have enough space on my disc for it? By the way, did I mention that nearly all memory was wiped away from the computer. I had 230-something gigabytes on my computer so this didn't make any sense to me as to why it couldn't download 10.7 Lion. Can anyone help me on this?
You only need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 in order to download Mountain Lion.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion. -
Transaction code for mass creation of physical Inventory document
what is the transaction code for mass creation of physical Inventory document.
MI31 is the transaction to create hundreds of physical inventory documents for annual inventory at a time.
MICN can create several documents at a time for cycle count.
Just look in the menu of phyiscal inventory into the knot Sessions, there are even more e.g. for counting of own stock a customer and vendor location, for vendor stock at own location etc. -
I want to get rid of an old iMac CRT that I have had since 2000 and need to make sure I wipe the hard drive clean of any personal information, etc. Are there any tried and tested methods to do this, short of removing it and destroying it with a hammer? Thanks
There are software solutions for wiping the drive, beyond Apple's utility that can reformat with a write zeros option. As for physically disabling the drive, you could remove the top cover and then the platters. A less invasive method of destruction would be to drill a few holes through the top cover and the platters. Depending on the capacity of the drive, you could reformat it, then remove it and use it for other backup needs. An IDE-to-USB adapter with power supply (about $15) enables use of the bare drive for quick connection to a USB port. The more expensive (about $30) option is installation in an external enclosure, but that would only be cost-effective if the drive capacity makes it worth the effort/expense.

Wipe hard drive data without access to screen
I want to permanently wipe out all data on my hard drive. The problem is that my video card has crashed/burned down, so I don't have access to the screen. Is there a way of wiping out all data without physically removing the hard drive?
Do you have access to another Mac? If so mount your blind Mac to it in the Target Disk Mode, Transferring files between two computers using FireWire. Now you'll see the drive on the other Mac's screen and can run Disk Utility to reformat/repartition the drive.

Hi there,
I have recently lost my iPod in downtown Clearwater Florida. I used Find my iPhone and it kicked in temporarily as the person walked by a Starbucks that was at a mall I've never been to. I locked the device and sent it a message but didn't get a call back. I got the notification that my message had been sent. It was offline again so I locked it, sent another message, and then clicked Wipe so the person couldn't get onto my personal data as I don't have a password on it.
I then afterwards realized that after wiping it that this means I will no longer be able to locate it. It is offline so the wipe hadn't sent yet and I was trying to find a way to cancel it. I clicked the little "x" next to my device hoping that would do it, and it has now removed my device from the list.
Am I totally screwed now? Or is there a way I can undo either of the actions above? Removing it from my list and then undoing the wipe?
Thanks,
ChriI didn't see where I could cancel the command. I think it's too late now because I hit the "x" button and it removed my device.. Is there a way to get my device listed again without having the physical iPod? It randomly showed up again today after I accidentally did the same thing 3 months ago (face palm) and removed it
