Subcontracting and serial number

[martin_badik]

Hi all,We have the following scenario: We deliver material (with S\N) to a vendor. .We deliver all serial number to the vendor (MType 541)(example s.n. 23). c. We post GR (101) and the specify S\N.The problem is that materialis both in MType 543(s.n 23) and 101(s.n 23) with the same S\N and the system issue error message IO 231: "Stock data of serial number x not suitable for movement".Any idea one to manage the process 

I muss take on same serial number, because i have serial number joined with equipment PM.

If i take on different serial number, new equipment PM create and i loss history.

Any programing or customizing settings?

Help me, pleas.

Hi,

Movement type 543 is automatcally derived from the system when you post the GR (101) for subcontracting P.O, i don't think we will maintain the serial number in movement type 543. The serial number is mantained only in 541 (with status 'ECUS') and in 101 (with status ESTO).

Hi,

I think you are just sending a material for repair to the vendor with same serial number and receving it back.  In this case your material given in the P.O item and component sent to the vendor should be same. So you can manage the same serial number with status ECUS while issuing to the vendor and ESTO when receving. No need to worry about 543 it is determined by the system automatically when you do GR.

If you are facaing any issues, please send me teh screen shot, we will help you to fix the issue.

1. picture is line with 101 with serial number (F01 and F02)

2. picture is line with 543 with serial number (F01 and F02)

Hi,

Seems you 're trying to realize recursive subcontracting:

identity of the refined material and the material to be refined is identical = same material/serial number)

is performed, in the combined goods receipt/issue (movement type101/543).

This functionality is NOT supported in standard. It's only supported in A&D subcontracting solution(IS-ADEC-SUB).

You may try below as a workaround, or you may consider to:

-------------------------------

1.  You create a purchase order with item category L for subcontracting
    The material of the purchase order item and the "material to be
    provided" item is identical (recursion).

2.  The serialized material is posted with movement type 541 into the
    stock of material provided to vendor (MB11)

3.  The serialized material is posted from the stock of material

    provided to vendor (movement type 562; special stock indicator 'O',

    Transactions MB1C/MIGO) with the original serial number. Afterwards

    the same material is posted into the stock of material provided to

    vendor (movement type 561; special stock indicator 'O', Transactions

    MB1C/MIGO) with a dummy serial number.

4.  Goods receipt/issue for the purchase order (Transactions
    MIGO_GR/MB1A)
    The goods receipt of the material to be refined and the goods issue
    of the provided material is carried out in one step.

   -> the purchase order item is posted with the original serial number

with

      movement type 101.

   -> the "material to be provided" item with the dummy serial number is

posted automatically

      with movement type 543.

-------------------------------

Thanks and regards,

Polly

Hi,

Where does it set type subcontracting? Transaction?

From SAP Library (http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/En/44/f60977de291433e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm

Subcontracting Type	Description
Initial	Subcontracting This is reserved for standard subcontracting. For functions such as serial number or special stock, you can use this subcontracting type.
1	Refurbishment with Unchanged Material Number During goods receipt, an unplanned serial number change is possible.
2	Refurbishment with Changed Material Number This is a planned change where the subcontractor is expected to return the same physical part with the same serial number. Physically, the part is the same; however, the material number has changed because the part has been modified during the repair. The serial number can also change during the goods receipt.
3	Replacement This is used in the forward exchange process where a replacement part is received from the subcontractor before the part to be repaired has been sent. The system sets this value automatically; you cannot set it.

Thanks
