WM- Material staging between two warehouses

Hi all.
My question is: is it possible to make material staging when warehouse in production order is different from raw material warehouse and raw material warehouse is managed by WM in two steps? I mean, confirming when it has been picked from origin warehouse and when it has arrved destination warehouse.
We need to transfer components from 0001-WM (raw material) warehouse into 0007 (production) and it is necessary to do it in two steps because most of the materials wait in a intermediate area. I thought in creating deliveries to use two-step picking but I don´t want to use purchase order (I am not sure if this flow is possible without pruchase order).
Is there any other choices to handle this process?
Many thanks in advance and best regards.

1 - Why the R/3 divided the material staging into two tab portions?
The first part obviously is for materials staged via pick parts. The second is a comprehensive list of materials that have to be staged from the warehouse irrespective of the type of staging.
2 - Can I use the LP10 and LP12 to manually perform material staging instead of directly via CO02 menu route?
You can use LP10 for staging pick part relevant materials. Typically, WM staging is triggered automatically however, you can manually stage either via CO02 or LP10. Note that LP12 is used for release order parts and it'd require the relevant control cycles that have 'release order part' indicator.
3 - Since our setup is using WMPP delivery, will LP10 and LP12 create delivery order as my understand is that LP10 and LP12 will create TR.
Since your staging set up is set via deliveries, LP10 will trigger the same.

Material Comparision between two clients

Dear Friends,
We want to compare material between two clients. The material has same material characterstics in both client. Is it there is any std. functional module to search it? There is one FM i got CLS_SEARCH_OBJECT but it gives short dump at selectiont tab.
Kindly give me solution as it is urgent
Waiting for the reply,
Thank you,
Nilesh Shete

Hello Nilesh,
This is the first time that I'm coming across such a requirement of such a kind. You can easily compare the materials in two different systems. But within the same system it is difficult to compare between two clients, since the oncept of a client basically exists to separate the data.
One crude method is:
data: mara_1 type mara,
      mara_2 type mara.
data: client_1 type mandt,
      client_2 type mandt.
data : material_1 type matnr,
       material_2 type matnr.
select single *
from mara
client specified
into mara_1
where mandt = client_1
    and matnr = material_1.
select single *
from mara
client specified
into mara_2
where mandt = client_2
    and matnr = material_2.
check mara_1 eq mara_2.
I did not understand what you mean by "....same material characteristics.." do you realize that <i>characteristics</i> has a specific meaning in the context of a material in MM ? And if yes, are you referring to that ?

Tracking of Material Movement between two customers

Dear All,
We have already sold product to customer using SD Cycle.Being Non Moving at Customer end , Is it possible to trannfer to other customer? We don't want any accounting entry in SAP , But want to track serial number base material transfer.Also want to give warranty to new customer.
Pl suggest how to configure this senarion in SAP.
Regards,
Sanjay

We have already sold product to
customer using SD Cycle
Is it possible to trannfer to other customer?
I am sure, your comments fulfills the requirement of movement type 601 (normal sales) in which case, you cannot transfer the goods to other customer. If at all, you want to transfer due to non moving at customer end, from SAP point of view, you need to create a return order, do PGR, raise credit memo and redo the sales process to alternate buyer.
Here again all these can very well done but it will be documented in SAP.
We don't want any accounting entry in SAP
Sorry not possible in SAP

WM material staging screen in CO02

Dear all,
When I goes to the CO02u2019s menu -> Goto -> WM Pick List, there shown two tabs (Only PickParts, & All Parts). There are 10 material items in the Only PickPart tab having staging indicator as "1"; while they are more than 30 material items in the All parts tab having staging indicator of either 1 or 3.
My system background: we're using WMPP delivery as a picking document.
I have several questions:
1 - Why the R/3 divided the material staging into two tab portions?
2 - Can I use the LP10 and LP12 to manually perform material staging instead of directly via CO02 menu route?
3 - Since our setup is using WMPP delivery, will LP10 and LP12 create delivery order as my understand is that LP10 and LP12 will create TR.
Thanks.

Inspection lot for Mvt type 311 between two storage location only

Hello all,
I want to create an inspection lot only whenever my material transfer between two particulars storage locations. e.g if i have multiple storage locations, then i need an inspection lot to be created whenever my material transferred from say X S.Loc to Y S.loc only. For other transfers i don't need to create an inspection lot even from Y to X.
For more clarity, suppose i have ten storage locations. i have also created one storage location for my Lab. So I want an inspection lot to be created only when my material transfer to my Lab storage location from any other storage location, not when i transfer from my LAB to any other S.Loc or between two S.Loc other than LAB.
I have activated inspection type 08 but it does not have a restricition on S.Loc.
So please suggest some solution for the same.

Dear Amit
In this case what you can do is make a copy of 311 movement type, say Z11. Deactivate QM for 311 and activate QM for Z11
So whenever you want inspection lot to be created use Z11.
You can activate and deactivate QM in QCCO > Quality inspection > Inspection lot creation > inspection for goods movement

Stock transfer between two St locs of same warehouse

Hi All,
I am new to WM and trying to config/simulate st loc to st loc transfer 311
one step between two st locs that belong to same warehouse number.
What should be the config and under
LE->WM->Interface->IM->movement types -> assign WM Movement Type
References to IM Movement Types. In my system for 311 movement type entry with
only the quantity check box checked and no other spl stock I see that there are
three columns mentioned below
For mvt types on WM side first one “Reference movement type for WM from
material movements” = 311
Second one “Reference movement type for transfer in warehouse mgmt.” =312
Third one “Reference movement type for posting change in whse mgmt.”=309
The reason I am confused is when I do a MB1B 311 from one st loc to another
st loc from unrestricted to unrestricted on IM side it is triggering 309 on WM
side where as I am expecting 311 to trigger with TR to pick from issuing St loc
and another TR/TO with (312 or 311 I am not sure) to putaway the stock in to
the receiving st loc. Can someone help in explaining how should the stand SAP
IM/WM interface work and what should I be doing to make it work that way
Thank you in advance
J

Hi J,
To explain you in simple way,
When Sloc is Wm managed and stock is transferred at IM level using 1 step within plant, stock is directly transferred from one sloc to other sloc(no TR/To is created to pick and putaway unless configured) Due to this difference is created between IM & WM level, Hence mvt type 309 is triggered for PCN . This Mvt 309 is picked based on std config at
LE->WM->Interface->IM->movement types -> assign WM Movement Type
References to IM Movement Types
If you want to create TR immediately then put x in 9 column against mvt 309 and w/h combination.
LE->WM->Interface->IM->movement types -> LE-WM Interface to Inventory Management

Material staging indicator not populating in prod order WM pick list item

Hello,
I have an issue with material staging in an prod order
1) PP-WM interface is activated
2) Control cycle for material is created
3) Production storage location is created for material
4) storage type is 100 for production
5) There is one discontinued material and also the follow up material
6) stock of discontinued material is zero and requirement are passed to follow up material
When we confirm the order the stagging indicator for both follow up material as well as discontinued material automatically populates zero (Non relevence to pick list items) where as it should be one (1 - for pick list items).
One more issue user has manually inserted discontinued material as well as follow up material in production order change mode.
In the BOM of a main material both discontinued as well as follow up material is there with some quantity as a component.
For the same work center, control cycle , production storage location the indicator is populating.
These two material (discontinued as well as follow up) are appearing twice in the WM pick list screen where first two line items are OK and populating indicator "1". But in line item last and second last indicator is not there.
My question is why the stagging indicator is not automatically populating in the production order WM pick list screen in front of components.

Unfortunately, WM material staging via production orders is not possible
from the pull list. Please see the long text of message RMPU 311
(WM material staging for production order reservation not possible):
"You cannot carry out a WM material provision for pick parts from
production order reservations in the pull list". The reasons for this
are cleary explained in the SAP on-line documentation via the
following path :
Logistics -> Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management Guide ->
Goods Issue -> Goods Issue for Production Supply ->
Material Staging for Repetitive Manufacturing
See the following under the Selection heading :
The choice of the selection type influences which types of WM material
staging are supported in the pull list. However, the pick parts can be
staged via RS headers/planned orders but not with the current BOM
explosion. The release order parts, on the other hand, can also be
staged if the current BOM is used for calculating the dependent
requirements.
WM material staging via production orders is not possible from the pull
list.
I think you may try in CO02 or COR2 for production order or process order.

Best practice - material staging for production order

Hi Experts,
could any of You pls, support me with some hints of best practice how to handle material staging WM-PP interface in a certain case?
Up till now we had a system, where production had no separate location in IM, but one location existed including raw material wh and production. In the same time in WM we had separate storage types for production and raw materials u2013 hence we did material staging transferring goods only inside one IM location between different WM storage types. The material staging should be done based on separate prd. orders.
Now this need to be changed and separate location need to be handled in IM for production u2013 which means the staging should be done between different IM locations and WM administration also need to be handled.
Up till now we used LP10 for staging, then LB13 for TO creation etc. We can keep going like that, but if do so, there is another step required in IM u2013 movement 311, where material numbers and qty need to be added manually to finish the whole procedure. I would like to avoid this u2013 which makes the administrational procedure quite long.
I have been checking the following possibilities:
1.     Set released order parts-staging at control cycle and use MF60 for staging u2013 but I can not select requirements based on pro ordders here (only able to find demand if component including into selection)
2.     Two step transfer 313/315 u2013 but this not a supported procedure u2013 313 TI /TO / 315
3.     Try to find solution how to create 311 movement based on TO or based on WM stock at certain storage type / dynamic bin.
I have failed.
So, could any of You pls, support me with some useful ideas, how to handle material staging where 311 included and definetly the last step of procedure, but administrator does not need to enter items manually one by one in MIGO.
All answers will be appreciated

Hi,
Storage location control should be able to take care of your problem.
If you want to stage the material to a different IM location then the WM location then make the following settings
If location xxxx is your WM location and location yyyy is your Production location.
You have defined Production storage type ZZZ for production storage location YYYY and have maintained the supply area for the same
In WM configuration - For interfaces - IM interface-Control of Assignment "Plant / Stor.Loc. - Whse Number"
Assign location XXXX as the Standard Location. Maintain entry donot copy sloc in TR for location YYYY
In WM configuration - For interfaces - IM interface- Storage Location control for WH
This entry ensures that there will be a WM tarnsfer Posting between your WM and Production storage Location automatically when you confirm your TO. You can have this done via a btach job also if you want cumulative posting. (schedule job RLLQ0100)

How to perform auto update in staging database using warehouse builder ?

Hi ,
here our client requirement is?
our client want to transfer data from their production database to staging database using warehouse builder.and also what ever the update occur in production database
that must be reflected in staging database.
here we are transfering data from product-db to staging using etl(maping--insert/update operator )
it is transfering fine.but it is not automaticaly updating in staging db with new update in production database?
can any body give me the details how to achive it.
Thanks & regards,
k azamtulla khan.

Hi,
firstly there are two threads for the same issue from youself(excluding this one) which is a waste of others time so kindly refrain from doing so and use one thread.
OWB: how can automatic updation perform in staging database using OWB
OWB: how to use insert/update table operator for target table
secondly, with regards to the options , here are some options:
1. Use trigger for update.
2. Use materialized view(refresh on commit)
3. Use oracle advance queing mechanism (OAQ) for queing the recent inserted/updated records.
Kindly close other threads and maintain just one thread.

WM material staging & process order

HI Team,
1. Is there any relationship between the control cycle with the TR creation process in process order?
Suppose there is one process order created (COR1) with production schedule profile saying 'No creation of transfer requirement on release'.
So this time no matter what, the system will not create any TR while releasing the process order, is this correct?
2. Suppose there is a process order for finished good 'A' and 'B' is the component.
Process order is having production schedule profile saying 'Only creation of Transfer requirement on release'.
Now control cycles are maintained for material 'B" with material staging indicator '3'.
Would the TR be created while releasing the process order?
Is there any relation between the control cycles and the process order and also with production schedule profile?
Please advice on the query in detail.
Thanks,

The system determines the material staging type on the basis of the control cycle and determines the production storage bins, in which the components should be staged.
Please take a look at this topic: WM-PP interface - material staging
This information: Material Staging - Warehouse Management System (WMS) - SAP Library
And this one too: Control Cycle - Warehouse Management System (WMS) - SAP Library
This will help you understand the staging process in detail and is quite easy to read.

Swap between two different item categories in sales orders for sub-contracting

Dear gurus,
my requirement is to have the ability to swap between two different item categories for sales orders for sub-contracting.
This should be controlled by a combination of the material and a value maintained the Usage field in the Customer Material Info Record (for example by entering a ‘V’). A combination of Sales Doc Type, Item Cat Group and Usage should result in the creation of a purchase requisition.
In the event that a process order is required instead of a purchase requisition (i.e. the product is to be manufactured in-house instead of sub-contracted) the user must have the ability to change the Item Category within the sales order to produce a process order.
The user would just change the item category within the sales order, and the system would automatically remove the purchase requisition assigned to the SO, and create a process order and assign it to the SO.
Can you suggest any possible solution?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Majlo,
In my system, I checked. First created sales order with third party line item and then changed item category to normal item category.
Till Purchase order not created, I can change Item category of my sales order line item.
In this case SAP inform by log and once save delete purchase requisition of that line item .
For this you need to assign another item category as an manual item category in SPRO Item category assignment.
After this user can manually change item category to other one manually, if PO do not exist.
Please let me know if your query is different.
Regards

Stock Transport Order between Two Company codes

Dear All
Scenario-- Stock transport order Between two company codes.
The valuation of Comapny Codes is at Moving Average Price.
I have a scenario
MAP of Issuing Plant-- Rs. 10 / kg
I am able to pick up the price of Rs.10 (MAP) of issuing plant while creating PO.
in receving plant.
At the time of Goods issu the MAP has changed & become Rs.12/kg. Hence the goods issue takes place at Rs.12/- perkg.
When we make GR at receiving plant ,the valuation of GR is at Rs.10 i.e at PO price.
Is it possible to have a GR valuation at Goods issue price for that delivery note?
Request Your feedback urgently.

The invoice has the material costs at time of goods issue.
You receipt is valuated to PO price. But when you post the invoice, then the MAP is adjusted,
By setting up EDI, SAP will probably post the invoice before the goods receipt is done, hence the GR should be valuated with the invoice price.
from Note 518368 - FAQ: Valuation for the purchase order;
With which price is the goods receipt posted for a purchase order?
Answer:
If the goods receipt is executed before the invoice receipt, the goods movement is valuated with the purchase order price. If an invoice is already posted, the system uses the price of the invoice. If a partial invoice is received, the partial quantity corresponding to the invoice is valuated with the invoice price, the rest is valuated with the purchase order price.
For more detailed information, refer to both the documentation of the material valuation and Note 380883.
see as well Note 547570 - FAQ: VPRS in pricing

Automatic creation of transportation lane between two Plants or location

Hi,
I am aware that when we cif Inforecords from R/3 to APO new transportation lanes automatically gets created between the Plant and Vendor.
The isssue which i am facing is that i want transportation lanes to be created between two plants . The TL should be created automatically. I could find the below details from sap help.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm41/helpdata/EN/3e/dfaf376ed96c21e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Transportation Lanes with Reference to R/3 Material Master Record
Storing a special procurement type with procurement type F: External Procurement and special procurement U: Stock Transfer (in the MRP 2 view of the R/3 material master record), means that the material has to be procured externally from another plant (supplying plant) or transferred from another plant.
To also be able to perform stock transfers for this material in the SAP APO system, there has to be a transportation lane from the supplying plant to the receiving plant. If you have transferred a material with this special procurement type from the SAP R/3 system, the SAP APO system automatically creates a corresponding transportation lane from the supplying plant to the receiving plant for the supplying plant (from the special procurement type) and material/plant combination. The transportation lane is given the creation indicator u201CSu201D for special procurement.
I am not able to make sense of special procurement U: Stock Transfer (in the MRP 2 view of the R/3 material master record),
Is this Special procurement some sort of customization as i could not find U: Stock Transfer in my implementation.
Please help me understand this. What exactly should i do to create TL between Plants automaticcaly through Cif.

You need to define setting in IMG for this from source to Target location.
Follow this path :
Production->Material Requirements ->Master Data->Define Special Procurement Type
example :
Plant      1004
SP type    40   Stock transfer (proc.from alter.plant)
Procurement type     F    External procurement
Special procurement U    Stock transfer
Plant                1039

Transfer of stock between two storage locations within a plant in two steps

Hi,
We have a plant 6400 & we have two storage locations 6401 & 6402. Each storage location belongs to a department which are located at some distance from one another.
The material to be moved from one storage location to another using a truck.
For the above mentioned process can we have the following process
(1) In first posting the material is issue from the storage location to a transit
(2) In second posting the material from the transit is received into the storage location
I am looking for a feature that is possible between two plants, can we have a similar feature available within a plant.
Warm regards,
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
It would be a business decision i suppose. If those 5 nos. are lost / damaged in transit & needs to be scrapped, then the ownership needs to be decided first. If it lies with the sender, then reverse the 5 nos. (MB1B mvt is 314) & then proceed with your scrapping or if it lies with the receiver then receive the 5 nos & then proceed with the scrapping.
Posting in system is one aspect, but a clear business rule is the key factor. So discuss with your materials mgmt personnel to define the process flow.
Hope the above helps.
Regards,
Vivek
