 Goods Movements in the Confirmation Transaction

Use

In the Enter time ticket for production order transaction (CO11N; referred to below as the time ticket/confirmation transaction), you can post not only confirmation data but also post goods movements without having to go to a different screen.

Prerequisites

If you want to use this function, you must make the following settings:

Define confirmation profile

In Customizing for Start of the navigation path Shop Floor Control, choose Operations Next navigation step Confirmation Next navigation step Single Screen Entry Next navigation step Define Single Screen Entry to define a confirmation profile that includes at least the following detail areas: End of the navigation path

  • Mill: GI Mask

    SAP recommends that you select Goods Issue as the pushbutton text.

  • Mill: GR Mask

    SAP recommends that you select Goods Receipt as the pushbutton text.

    Note Note

    If you have included both these detail areas in your confirmation profile, the system automatically hides the Goods movements pushbutton.

    End of the note.

So that the system can use this confirmation profile in the time ticket/confirmation transaction, you must either define this confirmation profile as the standard profile or assign it to the users with the help of user parameter CORUPROF .

Permit goods receipt for order item

You must permit goods receipts for order items in Customizing for Production under Start of the navigation path Shop Floor Control Next navigation step Master Data Next navigation step Order Next navigation step Define Additional Settings for Production Orders End of the navigation path . To do so, set the GR allowed for order item indicator.

Integration

In the time ticket/confirmation transaction, automatic goods receipt and backflush are possible as long as you have not created process batches for the production order. As soon as process batches exist for a production order, you must post all goods movement manually.

Background documentation 

If you selected the Fixed quantity indicator in the production order for a component, the system automatically posts a goods receipt for the total required quantity for this component when the first confirmation is made for the production order.

Note Note

If you have included the detail areas Mill: Goods Issues and Mill: Goods Receipts in your confirmation profile, you cannot post automatic goods movements for milestone confirmations nor goods movements for by-products.

In addition, you cannot post a goods issue and a goods receipt for co-products simultaneously in one confirmation. In other words, to post the goods issue for a co-product, you have to save the confirmation before you can enter the goods receipt data.

End of the note.
