Set up target, lower limit for MIC

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I am having a problem in setting master data for MIC.

I have a MIC1 for material A, as the demand in contract it has the target value is >= 45.

As the principle of company, this MIC1 must have the value >= 40. If it < 40 then it will be reject.

If MIC have the value between 40 and 45, then the vendor will have to accept the penalty (discount in payment).

I don't know how to properly set up master data for this MIC .

Target = 45, lower limit = 40

or just lower limit = 45

...

Can some one tell me the best solution?

And more question about the print out certificate form. Can i have  the target value in the print out certificate form (it is customer requirement). Until now, the form just have only the upper, lower limit and result.

Please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks and best regards,

Ok, if I understand this, you usually want the material to have a value of 45 or greater.  But you will allow 40-45 because you have an agreement to accept the the material at a discounted price if the value is 40-44.9999.

For a test like that I think I would set the set the test with a spec range of >= 45.00.

I'd put an info field of "return to vendor <40"

Set a passed UD code of ACCEPT.  Create a UD code of Accept/Discount and a UD code for rejected.

For those batches under 45, you use the accept/Discount UD code which moves the material to unrestricted.  The Rejected one moves it to blocked or return to vendor.

You might look at the active ingredient functionality for batch managed materials.  You should be able to use this to influence the payment as well.

MIC upper, lower limits are to decide the valuation & usage decision, it will not have any impact on vendor invoice or payment.

For your actual query, you can set lower limit as 40 & target value as 45. Keep upper limit as open. So that, all the results > 45 will be accepted. If you want to restrict upper limit with some specific value, you can specify that value.

Hi,

Option no.1 seems to be suitable.

Add upper limit 45.

Means final set will have Target = 45, lower limit = 40 & upper limit 45

Check n revert if it works.
