  • CR068 Work center category Z006 does not exist

    In Customizing transaction 'OP40', I inserted the application 'N' (Networks) for setting the task list application of a work center category Z006 to be used in PS (Project System)
    Three weks ago I used transaction CR01 to create some work centers with Z006 category to be used in networks of a Project with no problem; but now I want to create another work center with transaction CR01, and I get the error message CR068 Setting:`Work center category Z006 does not exist' although the work center category has been maintained.
    This work center category was not deleted in customizing, I can see the last work centers created in table CRHD.
    I followed the steps described in the SAP note 15657 - (Setting the work center category is not permitted) of course using the task list application N.
    I would like to get some help.
    Regards.

    Hi,
      Do you have authorization to see OP40 customization in that client, if yes, then kindly check and confirm whether configuration with respect to Z006 is still there in that client  or its deleted/ overwritten with some valuable changes. The work center that had been created in past will definitely be there in CRHD table/ system irrespective of the configuration changes to their work center category.

  • Work center category does not exist in CNR1

    Hi,
    While creating a work center through CNR1, I am getting the error 'Work center category 008 does not exist'. I checked  OP40 and the work center category is maintained there. Also the category 0008 has application maintained as Recipes.
    Let me know if I am missing anything here.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Soumya.

    Hi,
    I feel so. If your using the work centre category for project managment, then, application management will be assigned to N, then you can use CNR1, which is the T code to create work centre in Project management.
    In the standard system, Work centre category for project management is 006.
    Pl. try creating the work centre through CRC1 for process manufacturing.

  • Capacity category in work center

    capacity category under scheduling tab in work center creation is showing as mandatory, but i do not want to maintain this field because iam not putting anything under capacity tab to avoid capacity planning.

  • Work center costing tab

    Hi,
    Is there any user exit or FM to restrict users entering wrong cost center information, so that it triggers error while saving.
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear Sprint,
    1.I will suggest you to make all the cost center,activity type fields mandatory for the cost center tab of the work center for work
    center category 0001 or as per your business in OPFA.
    2.In this case only for the activity type and cost center combination for which the rates are defined in the system using KP26 will
    allow you to save the data of the work center.
    3.By this atleast only for the cost centers for which rates are defined for the mentioned activity types will be allowed to save.
    4.In my understanding the system checks only this assignment,check whether this can help you.

  • Open Space as a work center

    Hi Gurus,
    My client is in fabrication work. Client has a huge open space where they perform the work. Now client  want to do the capacity planning for the open space. Suppose has the space of 10000 sq meter. In that space can produced 3 finished products. If the fourth order order comes system should show the overloading? How can i do this scenario in sap?
    Its an urgent.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Mayur

    Hi Mayur,
    For your requirement, below are some suggestions:
    1. Create work center category as Free Space:
    You can define the task list usability of the work center category by customizing transaction: OP40.
    2. if required create the capacity category as "Free Space" by copying from 001/Machine.
    Maintain all the other settings related to Work center like: Standard available capacity, shifts etc..
    Whether to consider the capacity for 3 products or more is entirely depends on your work center formulas and standard values..
    Hope this helps..
    Revert for further discussion..

  • Re: Work center in plant

    i have no idea about Work centre, please explain about workcenter how to create?
    what efforts in create a work center?

    A work centre is a place where an activity takes place.
    The usage of work centre shall depend upon your work place, i.e. factory, shop etc.
    Usage of work centre is for scheduling, utilization, efficiency calculation etc..
    work center is created in CR01...
    But before starting the creation, the following are to be in the system, so that you can get a better result.
    Defien work center category using OP40.
    Define the person responsible in config or shoose the standard one if no specific person is not required.
    Task lists to be defined using OP45.
    Standard values using OP19.
    In Basic data enter Work Cenetr Category, Person Responsible, Location, And usage of machine are to eb defined.
    We can define standard vaue priority here. If we mention as should be enters, then that will be a compulsory field. .
    In Default values as per requirement we can put values.
    In capacities Processing fromual to be defined. Inside the subtab, we can give details of shift working, break times, capacity utilisation, factory calendar and all.
    In scheduling the Process Formula to be given.
    In costing field, we have to give the validity period of Machine, Cost center to which this machine attached, also teh relevant actvity types.

  • Re: Work flow for resource / work center in MEINT

    Hello Experts,
    We are working on SAP ME 15.0 recently installed. We are trying to send the work center from ECC to ME. In MEINT we see only the following work flow for work center / resource:
    As can  be seen, LOIWCS02 is not there. When we sent work center (category 9100) with LOIWCS02 IDoc type, it failed in MEINT. But when we sent work center from ECC (category 9100) using IDoc type 9100, it was processed successfully in MEINT but it created work center in ME.
    The other component LOIWCS02_ME_RES or LOIWCS02_ME_WC is not getting called. What is the possible reason and resolution?
    Would be thankful for any feedback on this.
    Thanks in advance
    Srinivas

    Hello Alexander,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    As per the help document, the work center category 9100 is supposed to create a Resource in SAP ME but it ends up creating work center in ME.
    If you see the screen shot I had put in my query, I see that there are three work flows - one for LOIWCS03 and the other two for LOIWCS02_RES and LOIWCS02_RES. Would this make any difference since I would expect that the work flow for RES and WC should also be in line with LOIWCS03?
    I will be asking my tech team to raise a support incident for this. Meanwhile I would appreciate your reply on this.
    Thanks

  • Work center capacity header freezed

    Dear Gurus,
    we're  not able to edit the work center capacity header. not able to edit the start and finish times.
    it is happening only for one work center. in other work centers same capacity category is editable.
    Please help us in resolving this.
    Regards,
    Gowri

    Hi,
    Check your work center categeroy definition for which edit is not possible.
    The work center category determines which data can be maintained in a work center.
    Each work center category is assigned to the applications (for example, production, plant maintenance or quality management) whose menus allow you to maintain work centers with this category.
    Each work center category has a number of screens assigned to it which the system displays when work centers of this category are displayed. The screens contain groups of fields (for example, scheduling data). Depending on the work center category, you can make field selections on these screens (for example, defining required entry fields).
    Thanks,

  • Main Work center ?

    Dear All,
    Can you please explain,
    How to create main work centre & work center.
    How can we differentiate the two after creation.
    What is the use of work center hierarchy.
    AR

    Hi Amit,
    About Work Center : Work Center is a person, a group of persons, a machine or a group of machines.
    Just understand the above lines. this is the basic defination of work center independent from any PP or PM work center.
    Now, if work center is created to perform Maintenance tasks with * work center category 0005 * those work centers are called maintenance work centers.
    ( Generally persons or group of persons are created as work center in PM)
    If work center is created to perform Production tasks with * work center category 0002 * those work centers are called PP work centers.
    (Generally Machines or group of machines are created as work centers in PP)
    In Plant maintenance, work centers can be defined in Hierarchy i.e. work center heirarchy is possible.
    take an example: you have created a work center with a group of people. you need to define who would be person responsible for this group & also you can define the persons heirarchy with the integration of HR.( e.g. Manager-Senior Engineer- Engineer-Associate Engineer- Senior Fitter- Fitter)
    The difference in one word is : Both are work centers but having different category & being used to perform different kind of tasks.
    For the trasaction : i would only like to say that while creating from PM nodes by t-code IR01, system give you default work center category 0005.
    I hope i am able to solve ur query for some extent.
    Thanks,

  • PP Issue - Resources VS WorK Center

    Dear PP Guru,
    As i know for resources , there's secondary resource could allocated for costing purpose.
    Thru resource network, you can define the network as the work center and the assign an specific resource (work center) at order release.
    Can anyone tell the similarity & different in term of resource vs Work center ?
    TQ

    Dear,
    Resource & Workcenter are approximately same. Resource are assigned to work center category 008 (Processing unit). This is inturn assigned to the Task list type 2 (Master Receipe). Work center (CR01) is deifned for work center ct 001 or 002 and assign it to the routing. And in simple language work Centers  use in routing of PP (discreet manufacturing), and resources use in master recepies of PP-PI (proces manufacturing).
    Hope clear to you. There is no other difference.
