Dear Experts,
Need your views and support on how to map the below requirement in sap.
Actually, the client is already in SAP R/3 system and they have around 1000 FG Material codes. For 1 Base FG, they are having 30 different material codes for same base material as per customer different packaging size and dimensions. This is process Industry. When chemical is packed in ISO tank, it has different material code and when it is kept in drum, it has different material code. And same goes on. This has created a chaos situation when sales people want to see the stock of FG, he/she never knows from which code Material stock will exist.
Is there any functionality which can be used for material code optimization?
This is required to have a better Planning and stock visibility.
Best regards
Shailesh
Hi Shailesh,
In standard SAP it is not possible I believe.
Lets take the example like you are having different packing size and in that the base material is same.
So finished materials are P,Q,R,S. Inside that base material is A.
Finished product has been created as per the customer requirement and that will exist. For better stock management you can for grouping of product. But this is complex and not the straight solution.
Better solution is to create customized report. This can be run in background and can be sent through e- mail to the sales people. Or they can run it manually.
For example: You have P-10 pcs and Q-20 pcs in stock. P contains 5 ltrs of base material and Q contains 2 ltrs of base material. Now total qty is 50ltrs +40 ltrs=90 ltrs. That will be the logic of report.
Not sure you have already thought about that or not.

Krishnendu.
