Hi All,

I’m trying to find a solution for my problem and so far no luck. Here’s the situation:

My client orders multiple materials from one vendor and these material are being shipped in a container. The challenge here is to fill up the container.

For instance:

There are  Purchase Req. for:

1.      10 PC of material X
2.      20 PC of material Y

The container capacity is 1 M2 (where M2 is some UoM). For both materials X and Y  ,  1 M2 = 60 PC.

My client wants to ship in full containers only. I tried to use rounding profile (static and dynamic), but SAP always rounds up each line separately, so I get a full container for each material (PO is created for 60 PC of X and 60 PC of Y).   It should be 20 PC of X and 40 PC  of Y.

I would like to know is there any standard solution so SAP will look at all items in PO during rounding?

Thank You!

Best Regards,

Hi,

We are into Construction Industry, and we use valuated  project stock.

How to handle Materials that are not consumed by the project but used in some operations for eg: Turn Buckle, Shuttering Plate, Shuttering & Staging System, MS Pier Shutter, instruments etc.

No GI is done for these stock as quantity needs to be tracked , these are always in the inventory and has value. These materials are also given to Sub Contractors, they use it and return back after the use.

We have 2 storage locations

1. Main Store.

2. Reusable Store

GR is done for Main Store.

To track the quantity of material given to sub contractor or some other company department, the store transfer the material from Main store to Reusable store and after use when the material is returned back the store person transfer back from Reusable store to  main store.

Problem:

As there is no Goods Issue for these materials, inventory value goes on increasing as new purchases are made. The accounting department expenses out the value based on some percentage  of the reusable store directly through FI module with no impact on MM Inventory. This has created a mess in the system.

Is there a way to solve this.

system did not allow the subsequent debit after 3 way match setting.

PO: 100 Amount & quanity

GR: 100 Amount & quanity

Invoice: 100 Amount & quanity

How it can be possible to post the subsequent debit after posting the invoice.

Hi all.

We have configured to issue an (Inter-company)Sales Invoice, we have a RD04 output that is generating an MM invoice for the Trader: INVL process code is used. The problem is that the EDI message remains in 51 status and the error message is:

"Item of purchasing document xxxxxxxxx does not exist" (Message no. ME706) where xxxxxxxx is the number of the initial (NB type) PO and my guess is that a verification is made between PO and Invoice and that fails because we always delete 1st line and add a second one

Is there anything I can do besides ABAP programming to overcome this issue?

Thank you in advance.

Dear ,

    I am testing ref purchasing organzation,and i have checked out "contract",but i dont know the "conditions".

eg:

Purchasing  Z000

ref    pruchasing  Z100

plant:     Z500

now, i have set a condition by mek1 "PB00":

but when i use purchasing organzation Z000, the price is blank:

AS I know, if i matain the price for the ref purchasing, the price  will be used by Z000,but now,it doese not work,

how to do?

I know that BATCHCHK can be used to perform various batch checks when using MSC2n.

All of the discussions I've seen in SCN revolve around it's use for MSC2n.

My question is, will this exit also be triggered by other transactions that can be trigger batch changes?

I.e.

BMBC (I'm assuming this one is ok because it basically runs MSC2n)

QA07 - Deadline monitoring

MB1C - a stock move say from unrestricted to blocked/restricted

QA11/QA12 - a UD that changes the batch status

QA11/QA12 - a UD that changes the batch expiration date.

Before I sic my developers on testing it, I thought I'd see if anyone would know the answer.

Thanks!

Hello,

I have some doubts according to same legal reports used in MEXICO.

According to the Decree for the Promotion of the Manufacturing, Maquila and Export Service Industry (IMMEX Decree) published by Federal Government of Mexico, some companies are allowed to make temporary importation of goods that are used in an industrial process or service

to produce, transform or repair foreign goods imported temporarily for subsequent export or provision of export services, without covering the

payment of general import tax, value added tax and, where appropriate, countervailing duties.

• How is this process of temporary importation managed in SAP? As regular stock orders? As consignment Stock? How it is tracked if it is a non-serialized stock?
• It is needed any kind of integration by an interface between SAP and SECIIT (Sistema Electrónico de Control de Inventarios para Importaciones Temporales)? Or any standard report  that displays the information that is needed by the authorities?

Furthermore, according to the custom law, the companies that import goods has to maintain and automated control of inventories with a computer system software (Annex 24) and obtain the required reports for the authorities, avoiding fines or penalties arising from omissions or errors, or as a result of an audit. It is required to present the temporary importation of goods, used materials, returns and so on.

They have also need to maintain some information, such as: "Número de pedimento", "Clave del pedimento" and "Fecha de entrada declarada en

el pedimento" in the reception.

• Is there any way to maintain this kind of information for each material?

It is also required to present an annual electronic report of total imports and exports for the immediately preceding tax year according to the form announced by the Secretariat of Economy through the General Rules and Criteria on Foreign Trade.

• Does SAP provide this type of report in a standard way (such as INTRASTAT for trade in goods between countries of the European Union)?

Thanks in

advance,

Best regards

Dear Friends,

I would like to share with you a scenario, which I've come across in 'PO Release Strategy' and solved by doing a small enhancement, as there was no solution in 'Standard SAP' (confirmed by SAP).

The Scenario:

Example: PO Release Strategy is configured for 3 level as explained below;

1st Level:      L2 - Local Purchase Manager

2nd Level:     L3 -  Finance Manager

3rd Level:      GM - General Manager (Highest Level)

In standard SAP for the current scenario, SAP has provided a provision to 'Local Purchase Manager' (1st Level) / Finance Manager (2nd Level) to revoke the purchase order, which is released completely by 'General Manager' (3rd Level). Few business advise to restrict this functionality, as they expects the functionality like, once the PO gets released by General Manager, neither Finance Manager nor Local Purchase Manager should have the authorization to revoke the PO, until the General Manager revokes it.

Solution:

Restricted the release authorization at the role level for the transaction code ME29N, by doing screen enhancement. Since the requirement is not achievable in standard sap (confirmed by SAP).

Steps:

1. Go to transaction code ME29N--> enter purchase order number, which is waiting for release--> enter /h (debug mode) in command bar--> then click on ‘Release Strategy’ tab in PO header-->it would take you to the program ‘SAPLMERELVI--> find out for the ‘Include - lmerelvici1-->double click on the include and then go to method ‘HOTSPOT_CLICK--> write the restriction logic for the desired roles as shown in below logic.

Transaction Code: ME29N

Program Name: SAPLMERELVI

Include Program: LMERELVICI1 

In Method: HOTSPOT_CLICK

Fucnctional Logic:

1. Once we go to the transaction ME29N to release the PO, the program would check for the PO release status (Structure: MEPO_REL_GENERAL- FRGKX≠ R or (Just for reference: EKKO-FRGRL=X))--> if the PO is not completely released (FRGKX ≠ R) skip the process-->  if the PO is released completely (FRGKX = R or (Ref: EKKO-FRGRL= ‘ ’)) go to table AGR_USERS (list of users) and check for the role--> if the user has role: 'GM:GENERAL_MANAGER', allow the user to revoke the PO--> if he doesn't has the given role, display an error message as 'You are not Authorized to revoke the Release Strategy, until final level revokes the PO'

ABAP Code:

IF sy-tcode = 'ME29N'.
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_agr_users,
agr_name TYPE agr_users-agr_name,
uname TYPE agr_users-uname,
END OF ty_agr_users.

DATA : lv_user TYPE sy-uname,
it_agr TYPE TABLE OF ty_agr_users,
wa_agr TYPE ty_agr_users.

if MEPO_REL_GENERAL-FRGKX = 'R'.

lv_user = sy-uname.
SELECT
agr_name
uname
FROM agr_users
INTO TABLE it_agr
WHERE uname = lv_user.

READ TABLE it_agr INTO wa_agr WITH KEY agr_name = 'GM:GENERAL_MANAGER'.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE 'You are not Authorized to revoke the Release Strategy, until the final level revokes the PO' TYPE 'I' .
EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
clear : lv_user,it_agr,wa_agr.
ENDIF.

Result:

Local Purchase Manager is trying to revoke a purchase order, which has already released by Finance Manager & General Manager, but system is throwing an error message, as expected.

Hope this document is clear for you and helps you in your current or future project(s) .

Thank you for reading the document .

Dear Moderator(s),

Kindly do not reject this discussion. I agree that the topic has been discussed for many times, but I've failed in getting an accurate answer for the below scenarios. Hence I've created this thread as a new discussion. So kindly consider the request and please help me to get answers.

Dear  Experts,

I would require your kind assistance in understanding the cause for the issue, so that I can proceed accordingly.

As reported by my user I been trying to understand, why the 'Net Price' field is getting grayed out for the following situations;

1. 1. In ME31K screen, after maintaining net price for a contract line item, it is turning into grayed out mode! This is not happening for all the items, only few items are turning into this status!
2. 2. In ME31K screen, if I copy an existing contract, I can't edit material net price for few line items as they are in grayed out mode. I need to update them by going to condition record of the specific item
3. 3. In ME31K screen all the items net price fields will be in edit mode, but when I go to ME32K screen I can see that few items net price fields will be in grayed out mode!

As I was analysing the cause for the issue, I've come accross a scenario where, if I change the net price via condition record of the contract item via ME31K / ME32K then the net price field turns into grayed out mode. I don't why it is behaving like this.

Note: Please refer the attachment. In the attached screen shot you can see the item 20, 270 and 290 are in grayed out mode.

Kindly provide your input to understand the cause for the issue, and follow the standard procedure to avoid the same.

Kind Regards,

Hello,

I have used output type SPED to created inbound delivery with ref to replenishment outbound delivery (Supplying plant and receiving plant in STO is  in same company code)

As soon as replenishment outbound delivery is PGI (PGI creates material document with movement type 641-stock in transit) ,a  SPED output type is issued and inbound delivery is created. The plant in inbound delivery is the receiving plant. The inbound delivery and outbound delivery is updated in confirmation control tab of STO.

1) while doing GR with ref to outbound delivery, system is throwing  error that GR cannot be done (error code 8 and sometimes error code 6 appears )  which Iam not able to understand. what is missing ?

2) We are able to do GR(movement type 101)  with ref to inbound delivery but in this case the Actual GR date is not updated in inbound delivery.

3) Also we tried doing GR by clicking the PGR button in inbound delivery. But no material document gets created. Although the inbound delivery status gets a  "completed "  status with a "confirmation of service" appearing in document flow of inbound delivery  . Why  no material document is created in this case ?

Hi All,

I have an issue in which we have automatic POs created from ME59N tcode. As per our requirement, we need the auto-approval of these POs which are generated automatically. The PR for these PO has a sales order reference to it ( MRP PO). i have also attached a screenshot.

Is there any configuration involved to start the auto-approval of these POs?

Also, this functionality was working some time back, and has stopped working recently. I do not understand the reason behind it. I am from ABAP team, and I am unable to find any condition where it checks - if it is MRP generated PO, then auto release, otherwise not.

Please help me to resolve the issue.

hello colleagues,

before posting that, I checked reports listed in Inconsistencies in tables EKES EKET and EKBE, solutions for confirmation problems - ERP SCM - SCN Wiki. but no one has been satisfied my needs to correct the inconsistency. attached is the table EKES.

Remarque: in MD04, requirements  are considered as ShpgNt, besides there is no inbound delivery related to these requirement as the screen shot shows.

could you advice?

thanks.

Hi,

The issue we are currently facing is ,in case of excise duty part 2 posting (J1IEX), that J1I7 report says the RG part 2 is not posted while under internal Excise Invoice (under Part 2 Tab) it shows the posting being done.

There have been no cancellations of documents.

What is causing this the issue and what could be the resolution?

Hi all,

I tried to maintain RB00 but not able to distribute discount to same materials which belongs to one material group ,

I need help in this scenario which is  to be mapped in sap. Its based on Group

condition. Please follow up.

1.)You maintained a discount based condition record based on material group ( = 01 for example). You maintained scales also.

QTY       Discount

1-10         Rs 100

11-50       Rs105

51-150     Rs110

2.)You are creating a Purchase order for a vendor  with five different items with different quantities as below

ITEM 1 - 25 No's

ITEM 2 - 3 No's

ITEM 3 - 12 No's

ITEM 4 - 27 No's

ITEM 5 - 62 No's

All the material is having the material group = 01.

3.) While calculating the discount, system  must add the quantities of items which have material group = 01.Here total quantity of items is 129.

My requirement is since total quantity is greater than 150 . All line items should get  Rs 110 discount irrespective of individual  quantities.

Is this possible? If yes ,How?

Waiting for reply.......

Dear Expert,

I have set MRP type V1 as our MRP procedure (Manual Reorder Planning w/ External Requirement). The following scenario that I am facing problem;

ROP = 100

Lot Size = HB = 110

Stock available = 0

Plan Delivery Time = 45

Planning Horizon = 75 days

Sales Order #1 = 20 (Delivery Date = 15/01/2015)

Sales Order #2 = 100 (Delivery Date = 30/01/2015)

Sales Order #3 = 150 (Delivery Date = 15/05/2015)

When I run MRP on 01.12.2014 with parameters;

Processing Key = NETPL

Create PR = 1

SA Delivery Scheduling line = 3

Create MRP List = 1

Planning Mode = 3

Scheduling = 1

The system trow me result (MD04)

PR = 380 w/ delivery date 15.01,2015 (Plan delivery Time is 45)

My query is, why does the system consider all requirement even beyond Planning horizon, the result suppose to be PR = 230. Is it V1 does not consider Planning horizon and how to rectify? Appreciate any single answer, thanks.

Best regards,

HI Guru's,

I need to update some of the data / fields in material master. Hence i have created LSMW recording with tcode MM02. while creatiing recording i have selected on those fields which i need to update in purchasing and Plant data 1 view.

when i try to upload the file ( .txt ) to update the new entries ( by running in foreground ) it is giving me error and prompting me to enter all the details like material description, base unit of measure etc etc..i don't understand why is it doing so because already material is created in the system and im just trying to update few fields. is there any problem in my file ?  if so how should be the format of the file sop that it should skip materail description  , base unit of measure and other data and allow me to update only fields which i have selected ?

Or is it the behaviuor of LSMW that we need to fill all the detaills of the material master in order to update / change also ?

Pls advise.

Hi  SCN -  I  need  to  run  a  background job  for  the  particular  date/user name.

In MB51  , system  has  to consider  the posting date (for  example -  03/0 4/2015 ) and  user name .

on daily  basis  whatever  the  user done  the  data  entry  need  to  generate for me by considering posting date  and  user .

System has  to execute  the output

Please  help me  on this ...

Is there any limitation in PS modules , PM or SRM , if we decide to use the material master ( DIEN ) to represent the items acquisition services , instead of using the Service Master ?

In SRM I can use the items defined in the service master defined in ECC or can only use items defined in the material master with type DIEN ?

     Dear all

I have the same issue:

My customer want to have different accounting registration if for THE SAME MATERIAL is done a purchasing of reworking.

an example

PURCHASING STANDARD                     --> ACCOUNT A

PURCHASING STANDARD SUBCO      --> ACCOUNT B

PURCHASING REWORKING                --> ACCOUNT C

PURCHASING REWORKING SUBCO      --> ACCOUNT D

how can I obtain this behaviour?
