Question Re: Goods Receipt from Production through RF in Supply Chain Management Q&A

Goods Receipt from Production through RF

former_member414281 — Sat, 10 Apr 2021 10:52:00 GMT

Hi ,

I am trying to do Goods Receipt from Production through RFUI . we qre using S/4 HANA 1909 embedded EWM .The Path in RFUI is Inbound Process--> Receiving of Handling Units --> Receiving HU by Manufacturing order --> Receving HU by HU . I enter work center and then Manufacturing Order.

I am getting the error " E: No open quantity found for manufacturing order 10000247 (/SCWM/RF_EN840)" .

In nomal scenario without RF, after the Process order confirmation , the Inbound delivery is created in S/4 and replicated to embedded EWM . I can then post GR against this Inbound delivery .

But my requirement is to receive HU from Production through RF and then complete putaway process .

May I know what kind of settings i am missing to the complete the GR from Production through RF ?

Appreciate your answers as i am quite struuggling to get this scenario set up .

Regards

naveensomsingh,

Have you checked that production order is confirmed and all operations are complete?

Thanks

HI Ritesh,

Yes the Process order is confirmed and also all operations are confirmed as shown below.

Hi Ritesh ,

Please find the process order and operation confirmation screen shots . Also error from GR from production through RFUI. I missed to attach the screen shots in my earlier reply.

Hi Naveen,

Please also check

1. if the goods receipt storage location is the EWM-managed storage location:

2. If there some qRFC messages exist for inbound document in SMQ1 or SMQ2.

3. If the product master data are completely set in /SCWM/MAT1 (finished good)

4. If you are looged at the right work-center in RFUI

Fingers crossed!

Best Regards,

Marek

Hi,

"In nomal scenario without RF, after the Process order confirmation , the Inbound delivery is created in S/4 and replicated to embedded EWM . I can then post GR against this Inbound delivery ."

OK, that means you start the process from ERP, but "posting GR against the process order" (you have set up the system accordingly, but as the storage location is EWM managed, the system creates and inbound delivery".

"I am getting the error " E: No open quantity found for manufacturing order 10000247 (/SCWM/RF_EN840)" ."

I do believe that this RF process is only working with expected goods receipt? Means that there is NO EWM inbound delivery yet, but created with the ER process.

This is the correct answer. For the RF to work, you need to replicate the Expected Goods Receipt for the manufacturing order first (use e.g. /SPE/EGR).

Hi Juergen,

We are using S/4 hana embedded EWM 1909 . As per SAP, EGR is required when we are using decentralized EWM . see below excerpt from SAP.Help

https://help.sap.com/viewer/9832125c23154a179bfa1784cdc9577a/1909.002/en-US/ea9feb535cbb5d1ee10000000a441470.html

" Note

If you are using decentralized extended warehouse management (EWM), you need to have expected goods receipts in EWM from the manufacturing orders in the enterprise management system (for example, SAP S/4HANA or SAP ERP) to be able to use this function. For more information, see Generate and Delete Expected Goods Receipts. "

While I tried creating EGR , i get the below error .so i guess for embedded EWM it is not required to have EGR.

True - in the embedded scenario, the manufacturing orders are accessed directly, no EGR needed.

Usually, one of the following points is the root cause:

- no EWM managed storage location on goods receipt tab in process order

- in fact, no open quantity or delivery completion flag is set

- order is not released

- no GR flag set for the "main item" (check tab goods receipt in the process order or field AFPO-WEPOS)

- order is no process or production order (check AFPO-DAUTY, must be 10 or 40)

- order was triggered by kanban replenishment

Hi,

ok, I missed the point where you wrote that you used embedded EWM. Because, indeed, in embedded EWM you do NOT need the report to create the EGR documents.

And in that case... Hm, don't know. There is no other pre-requisite described for embedded EWM I am aware of. Then I would think that the error is because you do have already an inbound delivery created. You wrote that the inbound delivery is created through the confirmation. Then you have to deactivate that, that should be controlled by the production processing profile.

2. open-qty.jpg open-qty.jpg

Hi Jonas ,

Please see my reply to the points you have mentioned which could be the root cause

1. EWM storage location is maintained in the GR tab . Pls see the screen shot

2. How do we find the open qty for the process order ? Is it if the GR Qty = 0 then it is having open Qty ? . Pls see the screen shot

3. Order has been relased . Without Release , system does not generate PMR and cant do subsequent staging and consumption.All these process have been completed . Even the Proces order is confirmed - Status CNF

4. GR flag is set for the main item in the GR tab. pls see the screen shot

5. Yes Order category = 40 ( process order)

6. No , this Process orders are manually created or through the MRP run for MTO scenario. They are not created through Kanban replenishment.

Frankly i am quite struggling to get this fixed for months . what is the document type in EWM to be used ? Is it INBM ?

do we need to map to ERP doc type DIG to INBM ? I guess inbound delivery is only created in EWM , so DIG delivery type is not required to be mapped to INBM doc type .

SAP hep says "

" when products arrive from production at the warehouse, you receive them handling unit (HU) by HU. The system creates an inbound delivery and post the goods receipt for each HU. The inbound delivery is not replicated back to SAP S/4HANA ."

How is this Inbound delivery created in EWM when it is not coming from S/4 HANA? what is the triggering point to generate this inbound delivery in EWM ?

Please advise what kind of settings are involved for the GR from product through Advance Production Integration using RFUI ?

Naveen

Hi Naveen,

your screenshots seem to be corrupted, but nevermind, I believe you. 🙂

The inbound delivery is created in EWM only when you post GR for an HU in the RFUI. The goods movement is then communicated to the remaining S/4 system via material posting document (101). In a decentral scenario, you would have the EGR first for the RFUI, in embedded scenario the system emulates the EGR via the production order, the follow-up process is the system (creation of PDI in RFUI, goods receipt posting in EWM, communicated back to S/4 via goods movement posting only).

You can investigate further by setting a break-point in method /SPE/CL_EGR_SELECTION->PPO_GET and see what happens during the selection. It is difficult to help without the system access.

Best regards,

Jonas

Hi Naveen,

Was this issue has been resolved? Since we are getting same error on S/4 1909 Embedded EWM. Your response would be helpful.

Hi Jonas ,

While i really did not have chance to get back to you becuase of busy scheule . Yes, based on your inputs for the method /SPE/CL_EGR_SELECTION->PPO_GET, i was able to identify the missing configurations relevant for this process setup and now the GR from production is working smoothly through RF.

The missing configurations were

1) Code for Initiator for communication chain at mapping of ERP and EWM document type level . The value " RNP " Receipt Notification from Production.is required .

2) Differentiation Attribute for Item Type Mapping . The Value " P1" Main Product (Manufacturing) should be maintained at the item type mapping..

Thanks for your valuable inputs and really appreciate

Regards

Naveen

I had the same issue, we did the simple RF config set up with COLOS label printing machine and it worked for us.

Hello,

Just for you information, we had the same error and after debugging I saw that the item position DIGN on T184L was not determined.

After adding the entry, it worked.

Normally standard RFUI doesn't have the direct future as per the above query. Its good as you have enhanced the screen.

Re: Goods Receipt from Production through RF

cemijares — Thu, 15 Dec 2022 05:26:11 GMT

Storage location is not assigned to your production order (at Goods Receipt tab)

Or the storage location assigned is not EWM-managed.
