shelf life

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

This is my requirement as below.

My client maintaine the Room temperature based on Batch shelflife.When the material recived user enter the batch time like 300 hr 200 hr  depends on batch..... Once material stored with batch in the cold room. When ever he wants that materail user will take from that cold room and used some quantity and will be back put into cold room.

Once will take the material from cold room some activites done like cuutting ..This process will take 30 min or depends on quantity...So finally this time will reduced from that batch shelflife quantity automatically.

Once batch shelf life over remaining quantity will be moved to blocked.

Please tell me how to map in the sap.

Regards,

Manoj

My suggestion is to keep the workcenter for cold room by this you can maintain the timing for the cold room usage and collect the cost and for shelf life of material you have to create the material master.

workcenter: cr01, cr02, cr03

material master shelf life in mrp parameters and other batch management parameters need to be activated. mm01,mm02

cost is the matter and my suggestion is to use the workcenter to activity.

I have not yet seen such functionality in SAP.

You would at least need to declare the cold room as a separate storage location and then do transfer posting to another storage location if you remove something from the cold room and another movement if you put it back later.

If your users are posting just-in-time then you can derive the time to be reduced  from the difference of the CPU time of the 2 movements and can update the Shelf life with a BAPI. The difficulty would be to know which two 311 movements belong together.

Alternative you may create a new transaction with its own dynpro where the user can enter material, plant, batch and the time where the material was not in the cold room and then the BAPI can reduce the shelf life. But you have to care about that you don't record the time multiple times, so you need some reference for your time recording.
