    Siva,

    How do I enable or disable wm picking, so I could do it manually ?

    Thanks

    • siva February 27, 2012 at 5:25 am #

      Whether WM is enabled at the plant level is based on the enterprise structure assignment of Plant to Warehouse. Go to [ spro->IMG-> Enterprise Structure->Assignment->Assign Warehouse Number to Plant/Storage Location]. So, for a particular Plant/Storage Location combination, if the WH is not assigned, then WM is disabled – If not it is enabled.

      If WM is enabled, you cannot do manual picking. You would have to do WM Transfer Order.

    Inquiry – 10000065
    Quotation – 20000098
    Order 13928
    Delivery 80016450

    When I click on Post Goods I get this error “Delivery has not yet been put away / picked (completely)”

    How Do I feix this?

    • siva February 13, 2012 at 9:24 am #

      I guess we have discussed this in the class already. We cannot do a PGI unless the goods have been picked. In order to do picking for this scenario, since WM TO is required ( based on the field shown in pic below )SAP WM Transfer order required or not
      you would have to do a TO by clicking on Subsequent functions -> Transfer Order. Let’s discuss the steps in detail if required in tonight’s class.

    Siva,

    I am unable to figure out why my order # 13817 is incomplete and cannot be delivered. Can you please help.

    Thanks

    • siva February 8, 2012 at 6:48 am #

      The order is on Delivery Block – Delivery Block in SAP . Remember, this is NOT a credit block at the transaction level. This is a Customer master level delivery block. So, please do NOT go to VKM3 – Instead go to VD05 and release blocks at the master data level. I went to VD05 and seen that there is a block on the customer. (Picture below )Delivery Block at SAP Customer maste level
      You can just remove the block and the order will proceed further.

    I’m having the below error when I’m trying to create the Billing Document(F2).
    Error: 0000135067 000010 Item category TA TAN cannot be invoiced with billing type F2

    I looked into the Document Flow and the Outbound delivery still says “Being Processed”, Is this due to the Material availability?

    Please let me know.

      Varughese,
      You did NOT PGI the Delivery. Remember that a Delivery Documents needs to be technically complete in order to process it further. As discussed in the class, a Delivery needs to be picked and PGIed to be technically complete. Try doing the PGI and then do the billing part.

      • Varughese Thomas October 19, 2011 at 2:35 am #

        Siva,
        This is where I am having issue. I am not able to do PGI. Which transaction should I use? I tried doing a Transfer Ordeer and it is asking for a Warehouse?

    Hi Siva,

    Why does this error message appear in my attempt to create inquiry:
    ‘Sales unit PAL is not defined for item 000010′.

    Thanks

    • siva September 25, 2011 at 4:50 am #

      Hi
      Can you please give me the inquiry # ?

        Dear Siva,

        The first inquiry # is 10000075

        But i get the error message on a second attempt when i click enter after entering the line item details for the first question on order cash cycle excercise.

  26. Purva September 20, 2011 at 11:11 pm #

    hi Siva

    I had to try tons of times got stuck with many different messages and was able to work on questions 1 through 4
    In the create order if threw a lot of errors for the SU (unit) = PAL. I do not know what that means

    question (1 to 4)
    17000001= Inquiry number
    20000121= Quotation number
    PO# = test order for siva for magna
    14594= order number
    80016749= delivery number

    I was unable to create a transfer order or billing document
    When i try to create a billing document it tells me the order status is incomplete.

    I am also not able to check the document flow.

    Also i have not worked on the questions regarding contract and scheduling as we have not covered that material in the sessions yet.

    The server also keeps logging me off every few minutes- does it time out?

    Thanks much!

Pls Adv

    Siva,

    I have some confusion in “Transfer Order” and need your further assistant.

    I have done some exercise in Inquiry — Quoation — Order — Delivery — Transfer Order — Post good Issue — Billing

    Can i directly do Delivery then Post Good Issue and Billing without a Transfer Order ?

    For my understanding, the Transfer Order is require when the company have control their material in “storage location” in the same plant, so when transfer order is created , mean it will remove the material from same Plant’s storage location to another same plant’s different storage location, am i right ?

    Can i treat this Storage location as “BIN location” or “Rack ” for my material ?

    Correct me if i am wrong. TQ

    Viv

    • siva September 2, 2011 at 10:33 am #

      1. If the Transfer Order is mandatory for the delivery line item, then it is Mandatory before doing PGI – Without that Picking cannot happen.
      2. Consider a Transfer Order like an authorized Txn that generates the material document that does the proper posting required for the WH – It is NOT transferring from one SL to another. It is transferring material out of the WH to the staging area for further processing. And any transfer of goods ( either inside the WH from one rack to another or goods going inside/outside the WH ) needs to be documented using a TO

    Hi Siva,

    I found the class very interesting and easy to understand… i loved the demo class… thankyou for giving me an invite…

    I had few doubts…

    1.U spoke abt seeing order to cash cycle in B -> B perspective… not to see in B ->C perspective…. I did not understand that part… What is the difference…?

    2. I am not clearly able to make out the difference between Inquiry and Quotation…. to me , both looks same

    3.U said that the software is already configured by someone, so that u are able to just give minimal amount of data for making an order….
    My question is “who does that configuration for a specific company with specific rates/tax/availability of materials etc…????

    4.What is the role of SAP SD consultant…??? to configure OR to make orders and billing like the way u showed us today…???

    5. When can I decide to get myself enrolled???

    6. How can I try doing the activity you gave us today even before i get enrolled??

      Please choose them for now, until you can create your own. ( You can do this after we cover the following chapters )

      Hi Gabriel
      Sometimes because of delayed updates, it is possible that you might get an error message like that. You would just have to wait for a couple of seconds and try again.
      Please try it again now , its working . ( I tested it as well )

    • siva April 25, 2011 at 2:45 pm #

      Hi Gabriel
      The quotation type that you have created is ZQ01 and ZQ01 does not have the proper configuration to copy over to SAP standard order type OR. We will get to this concept when we visit copy controls. Until then, as I mentioned, please use the following data.

      Quotation Document Type : QT
      Sales Order Document Type : OR

      Master Data :

      Customer Master : 1400 or 7
      Materials : M-01, M-02, M-03, M-04

  45. Jeny Koshy April 12, 2011 at 4:20 am #

    3) OR: 16283

    4) Delivery: I am not able to create billing, error: order cannot be created

    5) Billing: since can’t do delivery , can’t do billing either

  46. Sanjay February 16, 2011 at 3:21 am #

    Hi Siva,
    For Question 6, we tried to create a contract using QC, ZBF01, EC02 but in all the documents we could not find the fields which will allow us to lock the price. Can you please advise if we are looking at the wrong contract types.

    • Magna Training February 17, 2011 at 6:39 am #

      When I said’lock the price’ , I meant it in business terms. One of the reasons why contracts are created is because, the customer and the company wants to lock down to a price for a fixed amount of material. There is nothing specific in the SAP pricing screen ( Conditions tab ) that needs to be done.

    • Magna Training February 14, 2011 at 1:18 pm #

      Yogesh

      4. If you are trying to bill the delivery ’80015929′, then the PGI has not been done. You cannot deliver a delivery before the PGI is done for items that require it. Which document are you trying to deliver ?

      7. An order created with reference to a Contract in SAP to ‘release’ material/services from a contract is called as a Release Order. This is a business terminology. So to answer Q.7 , you just need to create an order with ref. to a contract.

      9. We have not covered Scheduling Agreement yet. If you wish to do it, Choose ‘DS’ as the document type using the t-code = ‘VA31′

      10. The scheduling agreement you created requires a delivery schedule. Try to create it using ‘DS’ and let me know.

    2. in second problem where I was able to create sales order but no delivery date. I changed the delivery date at the line item lever and it worked. i was able to create delivery #80015915. but when i tried to post goods. this erroe msg showed up.
    “posting only possible in periods 2011/01 and 2010/12 in company code 1000″

    • Magna Training February 2, 2011 at 5:18 am #

      1. The quotation was created before I changed the configuration in the sales document customization and removed the status profile set-up. Now start creating another new quotation and this time you should not have any issues.
      2. I will fix this issue. The solution to this can be found under SAP MM Posting Periods . Here is what I am doing to fix this. I am going to close the period 12 and keep 01 and 02 ( Jan and Feb 2011 ) Open in transaction MMPV. This is a MM/FICO consultant’s job in real-time. Now you should be able to PGI the delivery .

      Please move on to the next assignment – SAP Sales Order Header, Line Item and Schedule Lines

  50. Magna Training February 1, 2011 at 5:10 am #

    Hi Ehsaan

    1. While searching for the quotation ( while creating the order with reference to the quotation ) use the search tab “Sales Document by Customer” as opposed to “Sales Document According to PO Number”. Let me know if you still can’t find it.

    2. Quotation validity date is different from Requested Delivery date. They are mutually exclusive.

    3. Quotation validity date does not come from the master data. However, the Requested delivery date has a number of parameters that it is based on and will be covered as part of the “Scheduling” class – And yes, there are some parameters from the material master that effects the scheduling and hence the Requested Delivery date.

    4. Fields turn blue to indicate that this is the field where the error has occurred. The red color indicates the place where the changes need to happen. Usually when this happens, check the status bar for the error message. This is SAP’s way of forcing you to correct the mistake before proceeding forward. As discussed in the class today – since you have entered an invalid date ( Feb 30th ) , this error has occurred and until you fix it it will not go away. SAP also prohibits you from entering further data until the data is corrected.

    5. The “Napp…” error occured because, the original quotation has a status profile that does not allow further order creation. We will discuss this as part of “SAP Status Profile Configuration” class. This happened because of the last batch’s configuration. I have removed it now and you should be able to create quotations without issues going forward.

    6. You are not able to create the delivery for SAP Sales Order # 13108 because , the requested delivery date is Feb 9th, 2011 , whereas you were trying to create the delivery on Jan 31st 2011 – Which basically means, the system is not ready yet. The way around it is to create a delivery into the future. We will discuss this in the class on the system where I will show you how to change the delivery date.

    7. You have probably changed the delivery date at the header level and the message that the system displayed says that the change has not been propagated to the order’s schedule line. SAP does not encourage changing the Requested delivery date at the header level. Because, SAP would not understand how to handle the change at the schedule line level. It is always advisable to change the schedule at the schedule line level individually after the order has already been saved

    HI SIVA,

    TRIED TO CREATE ANOTHER PRACTICE ORDER WITH REF.
    QTY 100, ITEM M-02
    SUCESSFULLY CREATED THE FOLLOWING:
    inq # 10000021
    qt # 20000085. (QT WAS VALID FOR ONE DAY,WHICH WAS 30/01/2011)
    BUT NEXT DAY WHEN I TRIED TO ADD SALES ORDER AND I SEARCHED FOR QT # I COULD NOT FIND IT..(WHY?)
    SINCE I KNEW THE QT NUMBER, SO I TRIED TO CREATE AN ORDER ANYWAY BY ENTERING THE QT #.
    ,
    IT SAID “REF NUMBER WAS VALID ONLY UNTIL 30.01.2011.
    EVEN THOUGH SYSTEM INITIALLY CREATED REQ DEL DATE 31.01.2011.
    ( SIDE QUESTION….HOW AND WHY THIS DATE?…IS IT BASED ON MASTER DATA IN MM FOR MRP…RIGHT? )
    THEN TRIED BY CHANGING THE VALIDITITY DATE FOR QUOTE TO 12.2.2011.
    ( ANOTHER SIDE QUESTION..WHY SOMETIME FIELLDS TURNS BLUE COLOR, WAS I SUCESSFULL IN
    CHANGING DATE? ) THEN I TRIED TO CREATE AGAIN AN ORDER AND THIS IS WHAT I GOT.

    “CREATE SALE ORDER DOCUMENT NOT ALLOWED.(USER STATUS )
    Napp, objectvb200000850000

    THEN I TRIED NEXT SENARIO:
    SALES order without ref.
    OR # 13108
    SALES ORDER WAS CREATED SUCESSFULLY. BUT THEN:
    IT WOULD NOT LET ME CREATE DELIVERY BASED UPON DELIVERY date ( system picked the del date:
    09.02.2011. AGAIN I AM NOT SURE WHY….MAY BE MRP AGAIN) THIS TIME I PICKED M-01 AND QTY: 10).
    “No schedule lines due for delivery up to the selected date ”

    I DECIDED to changed delivery date BACK TO 31.1.2011. the msg I GOT IS “THE DEFAULT DATE IS
    NOT COPIED INTO EXISTING SCHDULE LINE”
    ALSO ” REQ DEL DATE” TURNED BLUE COLOR AND DATE ITSELF TURNED RED. AGAIN I AM WONDERING.

    Yes Ehsaan, you did it right. Next time, if you want to create a general contract, use document type QC ( which stands for Quantity Contract ). You can in fact use other contract types as well – Like QP,SC etc. However , in order to use WK2 you need an assortment module. We will discuss more on this during our contracts class , which is still due.

    When I said the contract is good for 9 months, that means, you should create the contract with the start date as today and end date as 9 months from now. Did you do that..?

    Scheduling agreement is still pending. So don’t worry yet.

    Siva,
    this my answers to first 6 questions.
    inq # 10000020
    qt # 20000084
    or# 13103
    del #80015914
    Billing # 90036904
    value contract # 40000205

    but I am not sure what do with next . In fact i am not sure if I handled q # 6 right. yes I did get contract number some how. but I am not sure if i did correctly. for example…” contract type”
    i just picked ..WK1…from list without any reason….then on next stage it asked me..with or with ref..i had no answer….somehow i got to next screen and under item review I put 600..don’t know why..may be i was trying to match your contract price discount…so some how I saved it but i don’t know how. I got the contract #. I am also confused about about your question…..you said this contract was good for 9 months..and then asked to create release order with the validty of 1 month. why? if it is valid for 9 month..obviously its valid for one month too. I have not tried yet q # 8 and 9.
