Seperate Document Number Range

[former_member588587]

Hi all,

I have created a new movement type called 901 and 902 which is nothing but replication of movement types 541 and 542.

But I would like to know if its possible for the system to generate a new document number range for movement 901.

Thanks

Hi G. Coelho,

To the best of my knowledge it is not possible to have document number ranges by movement types. In std SAP, it is based on the goods movement, goods receipt, inventory documents etc.

You can verify the same in OMBT

Then let me explain my scenario. Basically we needs to send out some parts for purpose of repair. And after the work is completed, they will receive the goods back. For the goods being sent out they require Delivery note with a unique numbering system. Also the price of the repairs will only be known after repairs has been completed. How do I go about setting up this scenario in MM?

Currently I am sending out material using 901 (similar to 541), printing out a Delivery Note. On receipt of part, I simply reverse the transaction using 902 (similar to 542). Then later a purchase order is raised for the known price of the Repair Service against a Cost Centre.

To set the number assignment for GR/GI slip numbers, proceed as follows:

1. Under Plnt, activate the assignment of GR/GI slip numbers for the plant.

2. Under Intervals, define the intervals of the individual number ranges for each fiscal year.

3. Under No.range grpg.code, define the individual number range grouping codes.

Assign a number range for internal number assignment and a number range for external number asignment to each grouping code.

4. Under Object, assign a number range modification constant to the individual plants, storage locations, and movement types.

Only enter the movement types for which a goods receipt/issue slip number is to be assigned.

Hi Godwin,

There is one work qround for your scenario. For this you will have to maintain External Tracking number.

You will have to enter your serial Ext. tracking number in the "Material Slip" field while sending material to vendor.

Based on this number you can get the report thru MB51. Put required Material Slip number (Reference) in Reference field in selection screen. Or set layout in report to display Reference field.

This will help you for the tracking purpose only.

Hi Goodwin,

Just a thought:

Why dont you create a sub-contracting PO for the material which your sending out for repair? If the material code does not change after the repair, then just enter the same material number in PO material field & also in the components list. Maintain the price as 1 (currency as per your business need). Once the price is confirmed by your subcontractor, amend the PO.

Issue the material via ME2o or MB1B with 541 movement w.r.t this PO. And when you post a GR for this PO, system will auto post a 543 mvt for the components & a 101 mvt for the PO material.

Hope the above helps.
