COGI-Non editable entries

[former_member337527]

Hi,

In COGI I find some non-editable greyed out PM SKU entries which are traced back to PM orders. But the 261 Goods movement date does not match with the COGI date. What could be the reason for this and How can these be removed without disturbing the PM order cost if any?

Hello,

Grey out enteries is due to peroid close.

261 Goods Movement date is the movement posting date, this is editable if the peroid is open. Initially the COGI Error date will be corresponding to the date on which the error movment is created. Any attempt made post error date which change the reason of error will update the COGI Error date and will make it differ from Goods movement posting date. The reason for difference in date.

Clearing COGI in same peroid is advisable. If the peroid is close and COGI still exist then make a same entry in next open peroid against same order, rest costing run will do and reevaluated cost wrt same order will be achieved in next peroid.

I ran SU53 transaction and received the message "The last authorization check was successful"

And when I was going through the PM work order where the non editable COGI entries were traced back, I found the status of the work order as MSPT- Material Shortage and WPRT-Await out of stock part. Does this have anything to do with the issue? If yes, how can I rectify the same? Thanks

Hi,

Yes I checked the authorization and I have the same. Also among the displayed entries of COGI only few are greyed out and others I am able to edit.

what did you get running /NSU53 (do not leave COGI screen) ?

have you got a system message "The last authorization check was successful"?

if not - forward it to your sap security guys.

Hello

I have always seen similar problems related to authorization. Maybe you don't have authorization for an specific order type.

You may try with an user with SAP_ALL authorization.

Otherwise, please provide a screenshot of SU53 after running COGI.

Hii

Reason 1 : After entering in COGI T-Code, Please select the individual records tab available at display icons bar. Once you get to each and individual error records, you can double click one and reach to individual error goods movement section where the editable option for batch, quantity, location, Posting date will come. From this section of screen, COGI can be clear.

Reason 2 : For this I am assuming the entries belong to current period. Reversal movement type like 262, 102, 532 etc entries in COGI will also be greyed out which is mainly for 'Deficit of unrestricted stock' error, In order to rectify it, the GR quantity with respect to the mention batch and location to be brought in stock and then COGI can be selected and refreshed to clear it.

I hope will explain the reason for above.

Hi,

Thanks for the explanation on difference in dates. In my case, the error is for current period only. One entry is in today's date also. The error shown is 'Deficit of unrestricted stock" in some cases and "Enter a batch" in some other. How could these be corrected?

Hii..

"Deficit of unrestricted stock" implies for the given posting date the stock of material for the selected batch from the consumed location is less than the entry made. To solve same, user either need to select batch whose stock quantity is more than consumed entered one or to clear same COGI with multiple batches consumption whose total quantity are more than or equal to the quantity entry made. This will be achieved by using batch split functionality at bottom of Goods Movement screen appearing at the time of COGI error clearing. Error movement line to be selected and at the time of split, one quantity is selected with respect to actual available batch stock and the remaining left out quantity is to be assigned with other batch which exist in stock more than or equal to the left out quantity. If the second choice of batch further come out with less stock quantity in compare to left out entered quantity then again the movement line to be selected and same batch split functionality to be used in similar manner as explained above.

"entre a batch" implies batch itself is not selected for the movement posting of the material. Batch is editable field and F4 help to be taken on the field will show the choices of batches available wrt the material code at Plant level. The batch with respect to actual consumed material to be identified and transferred it in your consumption location from MB1B if necessary and then required batch as per the required quantity to be selected for confirmation. In case if actual choice of batches are multiple than use batch split functionality as mention above.

Hello

Probably they are greyed out because of missing authorization. Try to run a trace on SU53.

You should check with the users if these goods movements are indeed necessary and try to fix them, so that you can fix and post them.
