  - - - whenever you were creating STO PO, we need to take help of SD consultant.
        
        As a SAP MM Consultant we need to maintain the backend settings for the receiving plant, so that will get shipping tab in the PO for that particular receiving plant.
        This type of process is called MM-SD Integration
        
        :explode:Requirements :explode:
        
        We need to ensure that material that we are shipping from 1 plant to other plant should be extended in material master for both the plants.
        
        Both the materials should have sales and purchasing and accounting views mandatory.
        
        Sales data will be given by SD Consultant and if not, we can request SD Consultant to give the sales data to update for the material master.
        
        Ensure to select all the 3 sales views and maintain the important data required in all the 3 screens to avoid SD errors.
        
        Ensure stock is there in supplying plant, or else we will get error in OBD-Outbound delivery
      - here the stock transfer is between 2 different company codes with different plants and each from one company code.
    - - vendor (XK01) is involved in terms of supplying plant.
        :!:
      - Because higher level credits and debits will be involved for between two different company codes, so billing should take place. :!!:
      - We will be creating material as normally and maintaining in both the plants as we did in 4th method by maintaining sales data for both :!::!::!:
        
        Now create maintain a vendor and inside purchasing data -maintain for plant as supplying plant-
        once you enter vendor in PO -it will take supplying plant backend.

    - - The material type (e.g., ROH, HALB, FERT) should have the Quality management view
        
        When on creating the material, it should have the quality management view or else we can also
        extend the view through MM01.
        
        Under the Quality management view :check: the Inspection setup must be activated and :check: assign the inspection type as 01 – Goods Receipt inspection for order, and :check: tick the post to inspect field.
        
        Unlike we have Vendor material combination like PIR, for purchasing material, the QM also has the QIR – Quality info record: Procurement T-Code - QI01,where we have to maintain the relevant information, such as by when the stock has to be released.
        
        Now while doing the PO for this material,
        
        at item detail level, under delivery tab, we could see the
        stock type & QA control key as defaulted, this is coming through the material master.
        
        Now after goods entry through MIGO, we could see the stock type flown through the PO. The accounting entries are similar to the regular unrestricted stock, but :warning: until the material get cleared by the inspection, the Invoice receipt cannot be cleared for payment to vendor.

        Two different scenarios : 1) we can create a stock transfer to a store storage location with MIGO transaction. We can then sell thegoods from the consignment stock directly.
        GI : 201K (use cost center) /. 261 K if production order exists.

  - - - Types Of Physical Inventory : IPCC
        
        Periodic inventory
        
        done once a year,Mostly at the year end.
        
        Continuous inventory
        
        A single material
        can be counted on a single date.So we can count
        some material in February, others in April and so on.
        
        Cycle counting
        
        performed at
        regular intervals.
        a fast moving and high value material can be counted four times a year while slow moving and low value material can be counted once a year.
        The indicator for this is set in material master in the Plant/Storage Location 1 View, in the field.
        
        Inventory sampling
        
        Only a number of randomly selected materials are counted on the balance sheet key date, and if those materials show small enough differences, the other materials can also be considered to have a correct stock levels
    - - Step 1) MI01.
        --document date
        -- planned date for counting
        --Plant
        --Storage location
        --Special stock indicator.
        
        Posting Block
        
        When a posting block is in effect, it prevents any changes or updates to the inventory records, Simply by restricting any sales transactions
        
        Example : Posting Block
        Let's say a retail store is launching a new product line and wants to ensure accurate inventory levels before allowing sales transactions. They can apply a posting block to restrict any sales transactions related to the new product line for a specific period. This posting block prevents any sales or adjustments for those items, giving the store time to properly set up and stock the new products, update pricing, and ensure accurate inventory records before making them available for purchase.
        
        Freeze book inventory
        
        means temporarily halting any modifications or adjustments to the recorded inventory balances within the inventory management system
        
        the system prevents any changes to the inventory levels until the freeze is lifted.
        
        Example : Freeze Book Inventory
        A company is planning to conduct a physical inventory count at the end of the fiscal year to reconcile discrepancies between recorded inventory and actual stock. To freeze book inventory, the company temporarily halts any updates or adjustments to the recorded inventory balances in the inventory management system. During this freeze period, no changes can be made to the recorded inventory levels, such as adding new stock, adjusting quantities, or making adjustments due to sales or returns.
        
        count batches with deletion flag
        
        A deletion flag typically indicates that the items or batches are slated for removal from the inventory records.
        
        However, during the physical count, these flagged batches are still considered and counted to ensure an accurate assessment of the inventory, even if they are marked for deletion.
        
        Step 2) Enter the material number(s) you want to include in this physical inventory document. --> Save
        
        Suppose If you need to delete the document, you can set the deletion indicator.
        Go to MI02->Double click the item with material -> click deletion indicator
        
        Step3 :Entering the Counting Results - MI04
        Enter doc number-year-count date - variance warning alert if difference > X%->Press ENTER
        
        4.Enter the variance percentage. This means that if you had 100 pcs on stock before the physical inventory process, and you enter 107 pieces as a counting result, you will be informed with a warning message of the difference between the previous stock quantity and the counted quantity.
        
        Step 4 : Enter the quantity that is counted for this material.
        
        You will be informed that there is a quantity difference of 20 pcs, if you haven't made a mistake while entering the quantity, you can bypass the warning by pressing ENTER.
        If you made a mistake while entering the quantity, you can correct the entry (124 pcs in my case) and hit ENTER again.
        
        1 more item...
        
        Step 5 : Posting the Differences MI07;
        --Enter physical inventory doc number
        --Enter posting date. Goods posting will be done according to this date.
        You can use the threshold value to enter the maximum allowed differences value in local currency. If you don't want a limit leave this field blank. In order for this to work, materials need to have the standard or variable price maintained.
        
        Step 6 : Suppose You see the difference quantity.This needs to be done in a production environment.
        
        2 more items...
      - If you want to recount the stock again , then use MI11 before posting in MI07
        
        If you want to create P.I for all material in plant - MI31
  - - - Step 2 : posting date & stock type ;
        items from the purchase order have been
        transferred to the screen.
        
        Another example :green_cross:
        
        The first item goes through quality inspection before it can be used, while the second item can be used right away without inspection. The difference is because the "Post to inspection stock" checkbox is selected for the LCD TV 40" but not for the LCD TV 32".
        
        STEP3 : Quantity, Storage location & delivery.
        Check the Quantity information in this tab. You can do goods receipt for less than the initial value if you change it. You will still see the ordered quantity in the bottom of the screen.
        
        Step 4 : Now we can check if items are OK, and post the goods receipt
        
        If you need to change the storage location, or override the stock posting type, you can do it here
        
        You can change the update type for delivery completed indicator.
        It is set to be automatically updated upon posting, but you can change it if your process requires a different approach.

- - - - In simple Words: In big organizations we have to create more than 1000 of materials or
        vendors in sap it’s too much time taking process to do this in within system to do this step bystep for each material or vendor, so SAP gives us provision to gather data which is in our spreadsheets or word documents and direct get it into the SAP system.
        
        It provides a variety of methods to convert and upload data, including direct input, batch input recording, BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces), and IDocs (Intermediate Documents).
        
        LSMW is compatible with both SAP ECC (ERP Central Component) and SAP S/4HANA systems.
  - - - While it provides flexibility to some extent, it may not support all the complex data conversion scenarios that LSMW does.
        
        LTMC is specifically designed for SAP S/4HANA systems. It is part of SAP's strategy to simplify and standardize data migration processes during the transition to S/4HANA.
  - - - IDocs are used for both application data transfer and communication between SAP systems and non-SAP systems.
  - - - Reports
        
        • Standard SAP reports — ex. MB51, ME2M, etc.
        • Custom reports developed by an organization.
      - Interfaces
        
        you can identify business processes such as payroll, shipping, fixed assets,
        QA, etc. which are managed with third-party systems. These external activities may need connecting to the SAP system. To do this, SAP Interface programs are developed to automate the process.
      - Conversions
        
        The project team will upload that data into the updated SAP system using data migration tools such as LSMW, LTMC, etc.
      - Enhancements
        
        Enhancements are created by ABAP teams who make use of BADIs, enhancement frameworks, or user exits.
        BADI - business addins -Allows customization and enhancement of standard SAP functionality without modifying the original source code.
      - Forms
        
        Forms refer to the customized layout and design of documents, such as invoices, purchase orders, or shipping labels, generated from the SAP system
      - Workflows
        
        Workflows automate and streamline business processes by defining a sequence of tasks, approvals, and notifications. Custom workflows can be developed to address specific business requirements and ensure the right information reaches the right people at the right time for decision-making and process execution.

- - - - the grouping of G/L accounts for recording accounting transactions in a structured way.
        
        Chart of Account is assigned to Company Code & Company code is Assigned to Plant/ Valuation area
        
        T-Code:-OB62
    - - a collection of valuation areas that will have the same account determination
        
        Since a valuation area can be a company code or plant, we can say that a valuation grouping code represents a group of plants or company codes that have the same account determination
        
        T-Code:-OMWD
    - - Valuation class
        
        It determines the G/L account to which the value of the material is to be posted during inventory transaction
      - Account category reference (ACR)
        
        Account category reference is the link between the valuation classes and the material types.
      - OMSK
        
        1) We have multiple Account category reference for material here; we can create if needed.
        
        2) we can link Valuation class to Account category reference
        
        3) Here we can assign Acc. Cate. Reference to Material Type.
        We can assign Multiple Acc. Cate. Reference to Specific Material type also ; So the Material type have multiple Valuation Class.
    - - A key to differentiate account determination by business transaction.
        
        For example, we must differentiate general ledger account posted by goods receipt transaction and posted by invoice receipt transaction.
        
        Movement type is linked to Value String & Each Value string contain
        Transaction key as shown.
      - T-Code:-OMJJ/OMWN
        
        for movement type 101 Value string WE06 & KBS TEKey
        is assign.
    - - simplifies financial reporting and analysis by providing a way to group related accounts together
        
        For example : "Raw Materials Expense," "Packaging Expense," and "Transportation Expense." By assigning them a common Account Grouping Code, like "Material Expenses," you can easily group and track these accounts together.
      - T-Code:-OMJJ/OMWN
        
        GBB/PRD has different account modifier i.e. different
        GL code assigned.

- - - - This is done in customizing. Requisition document types can have two number ranges assigned. One internal and one external range are assigned to each document type
    - - It is useful in grouping purchase requisitions and specifying its use in more detail. For example, we can have standard PRs, subcontracting and stock transfer

        Overall release indicator (defines if all the items in PR are released simultaneously or individually).
    - - used for tracking specific requirements
        
        The requirement tracking number from the purchase requisition is copied to the purchasing documents (for example: RFQ or purchase order) created with reference to a purchase requisition.
        The requirement tracking number thus enables you to group together the purchasing documents that exist for a certain material requirement.
        
        MELB
        
        You will be presented a list of documents containing the tracking number
    - - Source determination take various data as parameters for the actual determination process. These include Outline agreement, Purchase info record, Plant in our company, Quota arrangement, Source list.
        
        All this is taken into account while determining the best possible
        source for a requirement.
        
        To use the source determination, you need to tick the Determine Source check-box on the pruchase requisition initial screen.
    - - If the search is done in the foreground mode, and more than one valid source is found, a selection list appears from which user should select the appropriate source. If only one suitable source is found, it is assigned automatically.
        
        You can see how two sources are offered by the system, from which we have to choose the better manually.

        BADI allows more complex system infrastructure that can include SAP, country-specific versions, industry solutions, customer developments, and so on.
    - - Think of BAPI as a bridge that connects different software systems. It provides a standardized way for external applications to interact with SAP, enabling them to retrieve information, update data, and execute business processes.
        
        For example, let's say you have an e-commerce website where customers can place orders. To integrate this website with SAP, you can use a BAPI called BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2." This BAPI allows you to send order information from your website to SAP, and SAP will create a sales order based on that data.

        Time independant
        
        Whereas time independent conditions don’t have any time restrictions
        
        However, pricing conditions that are maintained in purchase orders are always time independent and follow the delivery dates maintained there.
