serial number status of semi finished material.

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I have a serialized finished product.

I have a serialized semi finished material as a component of that finished product.

After issuing the semifinished to the production order of the finished product, the serial number status of the semifinished item becomes AVL.

I dont want the semifinished serial number to be reused once it is issued to a production order and the finished material from that production order is delivered .

Help me in acheiving this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Gowri Shankar,

You should maintain a User Status Profile for the Serial Number Profile, (Through Equipment Category).

Once the Semi finished Material with a particular Serial Number is Issued for a production order. The status should change to Say " Used". Then this Serial Number cannot be assigned again to a new Semifinished Goods.

User Status profile should be defined in transaction BS02.

Thanks And Regards,

Balasubramanian.

Hi Gowri,

Configure stock check for serial numbers as 2 (Inconsistencies in Stock data -> Error) for the Serial number profile (you're using for the material) in OIS2 transaction. This will check for any inconsistencies and throw an error, if so.

Hi

Please go to OIS2 check for the profile which is already attached to your material, the profile must have "2" as a indicator in the last column i.e it will give error message.

Select the profile and go to the serialising procedure and check for the serial number usage field for the process/es you wish to change, you can use the no. as you wish so that the serial number can be changed during the next change for the finished material.

Best Regards.
