Hi All,
We are using Parts Interchangeability function with PIC01,..
Part A is replaced with Part B., following steps are maintained
1- Supercession chain
2- MRP Views, strategy group for Material master and all relevant views
But in Sales Order, the part is not getting replaced. As per below link from SAP, in the order, replacement should automatically happen during ATP
Any idea what could be missing?
Thanks

Hi,
What would be the better solution if I am going for Lease & Rental (Fleet Management) for automotive industry - Is it VMS or DBM that should be leveraged along with CRM ?
Since the requirement areas are Vehcile Lifecycle management (Procurement, Vehicle Database, Vehicle Contract Lease, Dispositions, Asset Management), not sure what to use with CRM.. VMS or DBM.
Thank you..

Hi all
Wanted to get some information on the types of EDI exchange between OEMs and their suppliers. What is the EDI format type that is used for JIT calls or for scheduling agreements and forecasted delivery schedule.Any information on middleware will also be useful.
thanks a lot
Hello,
In SAP DBM, for Vehicle Sales Order, PA uses characteristics which are available in the billing document but are not passed on to the Profitability Analysis (CO-PA). I have a KEDR Derivation with a breakpoint and I can see the characteristics related to Billing with data completed but these are not passed to the PA object.
This occurs for example with VKORG, SPART, VTWEG, KAUFN, etc. Only the charateristics related to CO Order likes WERKS, AUFNR, PRCTR are passed to CO-PA.
It be will a miss configuration in COPA, in DBM or a problem in SAP ? Thanks and regards.

What are the Key metrics for Vendor rating in Automotive industries best practices
We have a requirement that Operating expenses and material consumption (direct, indirect, tools and machinery spares) should be controlled so that they do not exceed the amounts specified in the annual budget. The commitments should also be tracked through the purchase requisitions and purchase orders. The expenses and indirect, tools machinery spares consumption is accounted to cost centers at present. The budgets are also provided at cost center level. Direct material consumption is accounted mainly to RS Headers for repetitive manufacturing. In some divisions, costs for small projects are collected through Internal Orders. The budgets have to be controlled at Cost center, GL account level. The company is an automotive company.
We have two options to satisfy the requirement - one to use WBS elements at Cost center, GL account level and other to use Finds Management functionality of SAP. In using WBS elements, we find mainly two drawbacks - 1. huge master data since WBS elements are created for each GL account, Cost Center combination. Each GL account is one project. (There are 200 GL accounts and 3000 cost centers). 2. WBS element has limitations since it is part of CO module and the same needs to be reserved for future use as CO objects, for cost collection, if needed.
The other option is to use Funds management (Budget Control System BCS) due to the advantage that the master data is limited to Funds Center (Cost Centers) and Commitment Items (GL accounts). These objects are independent of CO module objects and hence more flexible. It can be used for Purchase Requisitions and Purchase Orders, as per the requirement.
I would like to know if anybody has implemented Funds management in manufacturing company and what are the experiences? Have you found any limitations or any other points that needs to be taken into account while implementing?
Please provide your inputs.
Thanks and Regards,
Sanjay
Hello experts,
As you see in the below screen snap, after creating several splits in DBM order , the claims were created for the respective warranty cases.
My query is, after successful creation of warranty claims. When we look into the document flow
( Goto->document flow / Ctrl + F3 ) of the order, only the first split and its internal order number were appearing in the document flow. The rest of the splits and its order number were not there.
Help me to identify the issue.
Thanks In advance,
Regards,

Automotive industry phantom assembly consept.
Hello SAP community. I am a newbie and I am looking for direction on a strategy for Outbound Processing I would like to implement with our distribution function.
Current State:
1) Manually count product for what we may have available for a shipment
2) Create deliveries
2) "Pick' the product based on our talley sheet
3) Print labels and apply them to a pallet as a "double" check
4) Create the shipment
5) "Pack" the shipment if needed
6) Print BOL and packing list
7) Give to material handlers to deposit the shipment on the truck
Notes:
Currently using IM but looking at implementing WM
Make to Order Environment
Also must build and load to sequence for some customers
Do not currently scan, but want to implement
I would like for my future state to look something like this:
1) View an allocation screen for sales orders when allocation reaches 'x' % we release a pick ticket of combined line items that would be our future shipment
2) Pick ticket is released and material handler scans material from a bin location so that total qty matches qty needed
3) Once the pick ticket is "picked to completion" the pick list can be closed
a) If total qty picked does not match qty needed then descrepancy must be resolved (not sure which path to take for resolution)
4)Finalize the shipment (i.e.close) PGI, etc
Please let me know if this is understandable. Or if more information is needed? Apologies for my ignorance of some of the SAP terminlogy.
