cancel production order problem

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am facing a problem in production order cancellation. When I am doing cancellation through CO13 and saving the cancellation from the initial screen only movement type 102 is done, 262 is not done and I get message as 1 goods movement, 0 failed. after cancellation.

But when i get into this screen click on goods movement and and then come back and save both 102 and 262 are successfully done and  I get the message as 2 goods movement, 0 failed. Is there any configuration to set for both the goods movement to take place else is there any way hide this save button.

Thanks in advance.....

Hi Prashant,

Can you check the SAP notes 540392, 313985, 887021 and 915603...

Hi Senthil,

I have gone through the note 540392 .

19. Question:

Despite the "All Components" flag in confirmation Customizing (OPK4),

the system posts the components only if you go to the goods movement

overview in the confirmation.

Answer:

This behavior corresponds to the SAP standard system.

With the "All Components" flag in Customizing, the system also

displays the components that are not backflushed in the goods movement

overview to which you have to navigate.

If you do not call the goods movement overview, the system posts only

the components that are to be backflushed.

what should I do now?

I have exactly the same problem.

Hi Prashant,

Thanks for the details.

Option1:

• You are already using this option.
• Every time the cancellation is entered, please go to the Goods movement screen to get the components list populated - and then save the transaction.

Option2:

• If you do not have this setting already, please set the Back flush indicator entry '1-always back flush' for the components, in MRP2 view.
  • Please note that the changes will be effective for the new orders / and the orders for which you could 'Read PP master data'.
• For the open orders which do not have any confirmation entries so far, you can manually set the BF indicator against the components - manually (or if the business situation allows - read PP master data, after the Material master changes)

Like Senthil said you need to activate backflush for the components. If you don't want to activate them at material master level, do it at Components allocation of BOM items to routing operations level.

That explanation from the note 540392, seems reasonable and logical. Because that setting in OPK4  is just for the system to propose all the components to be issued for that particular operation. You didn't make the goods issue mandatory like by activating backflush, because you cannot issue backflush components through MB1A. For the proposed components, not issued during confirmation can be issued later during MB1A.

The scenario you explained happened for the same operation and counter combination?

Test Case 1: saving from initial screen

Below is the Display of the goods which is going to be cancelled. (CO14)

Cancelling the confirmation. (CO13)

Here I am selecting the operation/counter 123 and pressing the  button in this screen itself.

After saving I get the bellow message

Here only 1 goods movement is passed other 4 material did not get reversed and I have disabled COGI so there is no way for failed movement getting into COGI.

When displaying reversed entry, it clearly shows only one movement (102) has taken place, rest 262 & 532 did not take place.

Case 2: Saving after getting into goods movement

Here is another confirmation display which I am going to reverse.

As usual I am selecting the operation and getting into details (not saving here as done in case 1)

After getting into the details screen (not pressing the saving button now, if I press now the same result I will be getting as in case 1) I am going into the goods movement screen and just coming back and then pressing the save button.

I get the message as shown bellow. All the movement has been reversed.

Displaying the reversed entry I could see all the movement has been reversed.

Did you maintain any profile in Process Control field in OPK4?

Also I suggest your look at the following note 540392 (Question 4 in particular)

I'd also suggest you to look at CO14 for cancelled confirmation and also the material document generated for the cancelled document.

Hi jeevan,

I haven't maintained any profile in process control field in OPK4.

Hi Prashant,

Looking at the screen, you have 2 operations in your order.

I assume there is auto GR which is the last operation.

For Production Order reversal, you are using CO13.

You need to first reverse 2, operation. GR (102) and components assigned to this operations - GI(262) will happen.

Then you need to reverse 1. operation where components assigned to this operation - GI(262) will happen.

Also you can check the goods movements for the order confirmation in CO14.

Can check COGI to look into the errors while posting.

Alternatively,

You can get the document numbers posted for 101 and 261 movement types from Production Order, documents goods movement.

Do the reversal using MBST also, just put the document no.

Hi Prashant,

After looking at the screen, i can make out, you have 2 operations in your order.

And if you use auto GR then your 102 movement type is seen in milestone or last operation.

And if you have not done the component allocation for the operation then 262 movement types are done during order cancellation in first operation.

Also you can check the goods movements for the order confirmation in CO14.

As Senthil told, check also in COGI transaction.

Hi Prashanth,

Case 1 - where you observed only 102 & no 261:

Can you check through CO14 display, if the original confirmation had any 261 movements at all?

--> Please choose the particular (original) confirmation that you were cancelling --> check the goods movement screen.

--> Or, the 261 movements from this(original) confirmation entry went into COGI, and hence no reversals applicable during the cancellation (but, just the COGI entry would have got cleared) ?

Senthil
