Re: How to standardize Material description for PR/PO with text items

Hi

 

Thanks for your reply Prasoon. But I think you didn't understand my requirement. I want standard description of 'non-stock' material codes, (standard description means lets say its Pipe, 20m L, 10 m width, 6 m dia, ISO certificate no. xxxxx) This material can be seen on universally recognizable materials list ( the vendor will identify these materials easily). But our users during PR/PO may enter text for this material as "Pipe, 20m L, 10 m width, 6 m dia, ISO certificate no. Axxx) , this will confuse the vendor also and goods receiver also whether the original material is received or not.

 

So, I want a validation (through some fuzzy logic,if possible) which can validate ( during material master creation or PR/PO itself) whether this material is actually a std. (and existing one) one or not.

 

For ex: If I recruit a person (analogous to material) he will have a valid name with all his characteristics defined and he will be easily recognizable by all.

 

Hope you understood my requirement...

 

Regards

Saurabh

Hi,

   If you can take organizational measures to make the user enter the material description ("standard material description") correctly while creating material code, then you may go for non valuated material type and create material master accordingly. The same will be pulled in PR / PO.

   If its not feasible, you may check the feasibility of development. If you are going for development, you may maintain the standard description in a ztable. Now, you may check the material description entered with the similar text in the ztable and issue a pop up with the similar texts. User will be able to select the text accordingly. Same procedure can be used in PR / PO as well.

   Refer the thread: Prevent creation of duplicate material master record

Hi

 

It is helpful. In development I will maintain std. texts for validation and these std. texts will be as per some historical data. But, is there a way through which I can extract some std. materials texts being used in shipbuilding/shipyard industries in this z-table, so that, whenever any new/old/third party user creates materials (or PR/PO's) this validation will be triggered.

(I assume I will have to look for Google to search for shipyard materials)

I hope you got my point.

 

Thanks & Regards

Saurabh

SAP has such logic and duplicate checks in its MDG Master data governance module

and it is available in general in HANA: What is Fuzzy Search? - SAP HANA Fuzzy Search Reference - SAP Library

 

We recently reviewed MDG again, and we were impressed how it had developed from its beginning.

If we were still at the starting point, then we had certainly considered it.

However, replacing our own development with MDG is not an option, we are in some  functions still ahead of MDG, and the delta of what MDG has more than our own development does not justify the costs for the change.

All vendors are keen to present their product, invite them and make your choice.

 

What a fuzzy search does is well explained in a video for a different software product on You-tube

Find data duplicates with fuzzy logic techniques. - YouTube

Problem extending views using MM50

I need to extend the Quality Administration views of 5 HAWA's to a Plant that they're already created. I could do this using MM01, but in a early future i'll need to do the same job (with different type of material) but with many more, so would be nice to use the MM50.

 

For a start I've listed which HAWA materials need this extension, used the SE16N:

 

(sorry for the language of the system, I don't have all the details in the english version of our SAP)

ListHAWA.png

 

As seen, i've got these 5 materials that need to be extended to Q.

 

Went to the MM50 transaction, pasted these materials and selected the Q, but got this error:

 

MM50Hawa.png

I've even set the transaction to list me which materials doesn't have the Quality View, and got only two materials:

 

WOQualityView.png

Why the HAWA listed above doesn't show up as a extendable?

Thanks Jurgen.

You provided me both the ways to either accept (MDG) or surrender (invite vendor's products) .

 

Very good reference to know about MDG but I am not sure it will not be acceptable to the business for the said task (considering the cost factor).

 

We are in process of observing tools and application from different vendors, But still I believe if we could achieve the objective with our  internal development team then it will be cost effective solution because more or less many applications seems to use LSMW/BDC with some additional enhancement on screens etc.

 

However, I need to see  all the available options.

Re: Vendor Contracts BAPI

Hi,

 

It depends how you defined Source Structures. It should be multilevel I guess. At least 2 lvls needed: header and item. Then in source fields you need identifier field that will tell if it is a header or an item. (special type called identifier). Then you should assign this structures to respective BAPI idoc segements.

 

In your input file you should give something like:

A header 1 fields values

B item 1 field values

B item 2 field values

B item 3 field values

A header 2 fields values

B item 1 field values

B item 2 field values

...

 

This would be read to 2 separate idocs, into different segments. The sequence you give matters.

 

Best Regards,

Tomek

Hi Ravi,

Thanks for reply,

 

As I mentioned already

Now with this requirement to production plant XYZ after MRP run procurement proposal is created and production plant produce the goods.

So system is not checking whether PR released or not, system is considering PR as valid requirement.

And yes as PR is internal document requesting plant can cancel requirement any time before converting to PO.

 

Thanks

Re: reverse a invoice document

Hi Ravindra,

 

This message can appear for two reasons:

 

1)The quantity for which you are entering the invoice is
greater than the, difference between the quantity delivered so far and the
quantity invoiced so far. The invoice refers to a service item for which an
invoice has already been posted.

 

2)The system has determined that the product of (invoice
quantity -quantity to be invoiced) * order price is greater than the tolerance limit
for quantity variances set in Customizing.

 

In the case of order-based Invoice Verification, the system
blocks the invoice for payment at the time of posting with the blocking reason "Quantity
variance".

 

Now.. Check your entries and make any necessary corrections.

    

Goods Receipt-Based Invoice Verification

Conventional Invoice Verification:- The system does not allow you to post the quantity entered.
For this reason you can only post the invoice as a subsequent debit/credit.
Ifyou want to do this, enter the appropriate subsequent debit/credit indicator
in the field Subseq. Debit/credit.

    

Logistics Invoice Verification

 

If you post the invoice despite the variance, the system
carries out the posting and the associated account movements. However, the
document also receives a blocking indicator, so that the system cannot pay it.

 

Order-based Invoice Verification

 

If you post the invoice despite the variance, the system
carries out the posting and the associated account movements. However, the
document also receives a blocking indicator, so that the system cannot pay it.

  

Invoice for a Service

 

A service item is considered to be completely settled when
the first invoice is posted. If you receive another invoice, as in this case,
you can only post the invoice as a subsequent debit/credit.

Enter the appropriate subsequent debit/credit indicator in the field Subseq. debit/credit.

 

Thanks

put the cursor to block reservation table and then press F1.

It means if anybody else is processing a reservation at the same time, then you cannot lock this table and hence nothing will be updated.

Why don't you just leave it with the proposal of individual lock?

Hello Saurabh,

 

You want to create standard Text which will have to be called with certainn code in PO with some custom development, instead try following

 

1) Create RFQ for Text with max.Qty and Max.Date for perticular vendor

2) Just enter this RFQ number in ME21N for creating PO it will defualt Text, so every time you need not enter text and just enter RFQ number

3) Make "Short Text"field display only, so that user will not be able to edit it

4)If short test needs to entered for certian other PO's, you can create a new document type for those

 

Please check if this works, or simply you can create long term Contract for Text items and refer it creating PO making Text field non editable in PO

 

Thanks

Thank you Sir Jurgen, I found it. It was in OMS2 configuration. The value update check box was not thick. i think, that was the reason why only the quantity of those materials was updated and the amount was doesn't.

 

thanks for your help.

MRP4 ask for Storage information, maybe that's the cause of part of your problems. Try to add the storage information at the MM50, before processing.

Hi,

   It seems you had changed the field reference for the material type or the screen sequence. Please check the below points:

1. Go to OMS2 and check the field reference key assigned to the material type.

1.png

2. Go to OMT3E and check the screen sequence assigned to the combination of the screen reference of the material type. In standard, the screen sequence is 21. If its different, change it to 21 and test the scenario again.
