Kit to stock process, triggered from EWM

[JuergenPitz]

Hi,

has anyone here ever managed to get a kit-to-stock process running? In general my process is working, I have a VAS order, an outbound delivery order and an inbound delivery. But both deliveries in EWM use the same BP. As this BP is a vendor, of course the outbound delivery order shows an error and does not create the outbound delivery in ERP. All settings I can think of are done, but still no success. Any pointers what I am missing?

Hi Jürgen,

without having checked details in the System, i would assume the BP used for inbound - and outbound deliveries is the one maintained in /SCWM/LGNBP.

This BP should be maintained with all 3 ID Types (CRM002, CRM004, CRM011) and roles of vendor and customer.

Did you check this?

Let me know if this doesnt help.

Hi Matthias,

in this transaction I have to assign the SCU, the Custodian, the Default Party Entitled to Dispose, and the Default Ship-To. I suppose I can disregard the SCU and the Custodian, as they could not be it. The Default Entitled to Dispose is tricky, because it is the Default. So what in a multi-client warehouse? Anyway, in the /SCWM/VAS_KTS, you enter you Ent. to Dispose, so it is not necessary. Which leaves the Default Ship-to. But this one is not used. I have entered one, but does not work.

A BP in standard can not have all three roles. Because it is either a vendor (so CRM004) or a customer (CRM002) (Except if you would use the BP mapping because you used the same number in ERP). And only of of them has the ID Type CRM011. I can also not assign CRM002 or CRM004 manually (Error: You may not enter any numbers in the dialog for ID Type CRMxxx).

What I am missing the connection that the other BP is found in this process. I enter the entitled to dispose, which is a Vendor, and the system must find the BP for the other "direction", in this case a customer.

(and just to confirm: in our warehouse the SCU, the Custodian and the default entitled to dispose are all the same).

Hi Jürgen,

still guessing it´s the Default entitled from /SCWM/LGNBP.

A BP can have all 3 id types in Standard as BP can be a "representative" of ECC vendor  and ECC customer and plant. The mapping of ECC vendor and customer is done in TX BP in the tab "identification".

For the maintenance of the BP with the 3ID types you might Need to Change some BP customizing settings. Pls check SPRO-Cross Components-SAP Business Partner-Business Partner-Basic Settings- ID numbers - define id types and remove the flag "Display only". This should enable you to maintain the entitled BP with all 3 ID types.

Check this and try again.

If it´s not working let me know which System and i can check.

Cheers,

Matthias

Ah, that did the trick. After removing the "Display only" flag it works. Just one change: the setting is under "Define Identification Categories".

The outbound delivery order in EWM still looks strange because it has the BP which is a vendor as ship-to-party and when you check the ODO it gives a warning "Business partner xxx not allowed for document role STPRT" - but the action for sending the delivery to ERP now works.

Great, thanks a lot!

Hi experts,

I am also facing the same problem. Direct ODO created with kit to stock VAS order has vendor as BP. So system failed to generate the message through PPF action to replicate the ODO to ECC. After maintaining customizing settings-define id types and remove the flag "Display only" at SPRO-Cross Components-SAP Business Partner-Business Partner-Basic Settings- ID numbers, system is able to generate the message successfully but it got stuck in inbound queue of ECC now for the following error:

Did any of you encounter this problem? Any solution on this?

Thanks,
