MODULE DETAILS
Materials Managements module is used for mapping the Business process used in Janki
Corp Ltd.., for Planning, Procurement, Receipts, Issues, Transfer Posting, Physical
Inventory, Valuation of materials & Invoice verification.
It is sub divided into
Consumption-based planning
Purchasing
Inventory Management
Valuation
Logistics Invoice Verification
Consumption-based planning:
The central role of MRP is to monitor stocks and in particular, to automatically create
procurement proposals for purchasing (purchase requisitions). This target is achieved by
using various materials planning methods which each cover different procedures.
In consumption-based planning, the following MRP procedures are available:
Safety stock
Average consumption
Replenishment lead time
At Janki Corp Ltd. Indirect materials will be procured externally with manual re-order point
with Replenishment up to Maximum stock level, fixed lot size or lot to lot size.
Purchasing:
Wipro Ltd.
Page 5 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
The tasks of the MM Purchasing component are as follows:
Good communication between all participants in the procurement process is necessary for
Purchasing to function smoothly.
The typical procurement cycle for a service or material consists of the following phases:
1. Determination of Requirements
Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via materials
planning and control. (This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based approach to
inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of materials defined by master
records, use of the order-point method, and forecasting on the basis of past usage are
important aspects of the latter.) You can enter purchase requisitions yourself, or they can be
generated automatically by the materials planning and control system.
2. Source Determination
The Purchasing component helps you identify potential sources of supply based on past
orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements. This speeds the process of creating
requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors electronically via SAP EDI, if
desired.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 6 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Goods receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the PO
number. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over- and under deliveries of
ordered goods.
7. Invoice Verification
The system supports the checking and matching of invoices. The accounts payable is
notified of quantity and price variances because the system has access to PO and goods
receipt data. This speeds the process of auditing and clearing invoices for payment.
8. Payment
Payments are processed in FI in accounts payable.
Inventory Management:
This component deals with the following tasks.
Stock of materials that must be managed separately for reasons of ownership or location.
Material is procured from external or internal sources on the basis of the requirements
determined by Material Requirements Planning. The delivery is entered in Inventory
Management as a goods receipt. The material is stored (and managed under Inventory
Management) until it is delivered to customers (Sales & Distribution), or is used for internal
purposes (for example, for production).
During all transactions, Inventory Management accesses both master data (such as material
master data) and transaction data (such as purchasing documents) shared by all Logistics
components.
Material Valuation:
This includes the following application areas:
Purchasing.
Inventory Management.
Logistics Invoice Verification.
Material Valuation determines or records the stock value of a material. The stock value is
calculated using the formula:
Stock value = stock quantity x material price
Wipro Ltd.
Page 7 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Thus, if the stock quantity or the material price changes, the stock value changes.
Material Valuation serves the following purposes:
2 ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE
2.1 Plant
Plant is an organizational unit within Logistics, serving to subdivide an enterprise according
to procurement, maintenance, and materials planning. A plant is a place where either
material is produced, or goods and services are provided. Material stocks are valued at the
plant level.

3 MASTER DATA
Wipro Ltd.

In
In
In
In
Master data is common across all plants. There are no multi-lingual descriptions for the
materials. In addition to the basic description, Purchase Order Text will be maintained for
the materials. All the existing materials will be loaded to the SAP system; to avoid
duplication of master data a central department will create new materials. Janki Corp Ltd.
will be operating in a multi-plant environment in SAP R/3. For common materials, master
data in more than one plant will have to be maintained on an ongoing basis. The ownership
and corresponding process for maintenance of these master data has to be finalized by
Janki Corp Ltd., in the Realization Phase and documented.
When we create a material master record, it is required to classify the material according to
industry sector and material type.
Industry
It is a factor determining the screen sequence and field selection in a material master
record. Once assigned an industry sector to a material, it cannot change the industry sector
again afterwards.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 13 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Material Type
Material type groups together material with the same basic attributes, for example, raw
materials, semi-finished products, or finished products. When creating a material master
record, materials are assigned to a material type. Material type determines whether the
material number can be assigned internally or externally and the number range from
which the material number is drawn.
Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose, for example, as a process
material.
Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally.
The number range from which the material number is taken.
Which screens appear and in what sequence.
Which departmental data is allowed to enter?
What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured inhouse or procured externally, or both.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 14 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Together with the plant, the material type determines the material's inventory management
requirement; that is:
In addition, the accounts affected by a material entering or leaving the Warehouse depend
on the material type.
In Janki Corp Ltd...., currently the Material Master or Item Master, as it is known, is
maintained independently at plant level and for the projects the materials are created as
and when required. The concept of material type is followed to distinguish the material.
The following Material types will be used in Janki Corp Ltd. Additional Material type can be
created in future.

Material Numbering
For every material a material master record in the material master must exit. A material
number uniquely identifies this record.
Material numbering will be *internally/externally generated according to the material type.
However the existing stock numbers in the legacy system will be transferred to SAP as an
Old material number in the material master record. The maximum number of characters will
be *18. In the case of external if the number of characters is less, then the leading zeros
will not be displayed and for internal number assignment system will use the number from
the range allocated.

Unit of measure
The R/3 System distinguishes between the following units of measure:
Base unit of measure
This is the unit of measure in which the stocks of a material are managed. The
system converts all quantities entered in other units to the base unit of measure.
Alternative units of measure
Individual departments may have their own units of measure. For example,
Purchasing may use a different unit than Sales or Warehouse Management (WM). All
units of measure other than the base unit of measure are referred to as alternative
units of measure. The R/3 System supports the following alternative units of
measure:
Wipro Ltd.
Order unit
Allows a material to be ordered in a unit differing from the base unit of
measure. The order unit is proposed automatically in purchasing functions,
where it can be changed.
Sales unit
Allows a material to be sold in a unit differing from the base unit of measure.
The sales unit is proposed automatically in the sales order, where it can be
changed.
Unit of issue
Unit of measure is the unit in which the material is issued from the
Warehouse. It allows consumption, stock transfers, transfer postings, and
Page 17 of 70

physical inventories to be recorded in a unit differing from the base unit of
measure and from the stockkeeping unit.

Material Valuation
Material valuation is the determination of the value of a stock of materials. The valuation
relevant data on a material include:
a) Valuation price.
b) Assignment to a valuation class, Valuation class is used to determine the G/ L account
during the material movement.
c) Selection of the valuation method using the price control indicator, S Standard Price ,
V Moving Average Price.
The materials will be valuated at Standard Price and Moving average price. For Standard
Price Control indicator will be S and Moving average price control indicator will be V. The
Standard / moving average price should be entered at the time of creation of the Material
Master. Standard cost estimate can be carried out in SAP to arrive at the standard price and
can automatically update the current standard price of the material. Also the standard price
can be changed manually through the price change functionality in SAP. Necessary
authorization control will be put in place to restrict unauthorized change in the standard
price.
Semi finish & Finish Material will have Standard Price all other Material type will Moving
Average Price.
Period end closing has to be carried out in Materials Management at the end of each period
to allow goods movement in the next period. This is required as the price; stock value and
quantity are managed period wise in the system.
Wipro Ltd.

It consists of data like Vendor name, address, reconciliation account, payment terms,
Schema group etc. The vendor master will be created centrally and the required purchasing
data will be maintained in the respective purchasing organization level. The order currency
and the terms of payment will be in the display field in the purchasing organization data. If
the master data currency differs from the purchasing currency it can be changed in the
Purchase order.
Business partners have a number of different functions, described as partner functions, in
connection with your company. You use partner functions to define the rights and
responsibilities of each partner type in a business transaction. When you sell or order goods,
for example, your business partners can assume partner functions such as: Ordering
Address, Goods supplier, Alternate payee.
Vendor Account Group
Vendor account group is a classifying feature within vendor master records that determines:
The type of number assignment, internal or external.
A number range for assigning account numbers.
Which fields are displayed and whether their entry is optional or required (field
status) when you enter or change vendor master data.
Whether the account is for one-time vendors.
To create a master record, an account group must be specified. The account group cannot
be changed after you create the master record.
The following account groups will be created for Janki Corp Ltd..

In Janki Corp Ltd.. the source list will be used to maintain the preferred vendor list. If a
contract exists it will be maintained in the Source list.
Currently in some of the plants preferred vendors exist for supplying certain parts, these will
be maintained in the source list in SAP
No restriction will be placed initially for procurement only from the vendors maintained in
the source list. There is no requirement to restrict suppliers according to their region.

In the planning run, the system carries out the following processes:
1. The system checks the planning file entries. Here, the system checks to see whether
a material has been changed in some way relevant to MRP and should therefore be
included in the planning run.
2. The system carries out a net requirements calculation for every material. Here, the
system checks to see whether the requirement quantity is covered by available
Warehouse stock and fixed receipts from Purchasing or production. If the
requirement quantity is not covered, the system creates a procurement proposal.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 24 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
3. Then the system carries out the lot-sizing calculation. Here, the system takes the lotsizing procedure and, if necessary, the rounding up or down values into account.
4. The system carries out scheduling to calculate the start and finish dates of the
procurement proposals.
5. The system determines the type of procurement proposals. Depending on the
settings, the system creates planned orders, purchase requisitions or schedule lines
for a material (see determining the Procurement Proposal). If you have maintained
the necessary specifications for procurement, the system determines the source of
supply which it assigns to the procurement proposal.
6. The system recognizes critical situations, which the planner has to processes
manually in the planning results. For this purpose, the system creates exception
messages and carries out a rescheduling check.
7. It also calculates the actual days supply and the receipt days supply.
MRP Procedures
Creation of procurement proposals
The type of procurement proposal to be created automatically in the planning run depends
on the procurement type of the material. For in-house production, the system always
creates a planned order. For external procurement, the MRP controller can choose between
a planned order and a purchase requisition. If the MRP controller chooses a planned order, it
then has to be converted into a purchase requisition in a separate step so that it is made
available to Purchasing.
The advantage of creating a planned order is that the MRP controller has more control over
the procurement proposals. The purchasing department cannot order the material until the
MRP controller has checked and converted the order proposal. If a purchase requisition is
created, it is immediately available to the purchasing department, which then takes over the
responsibility for material availability and Warehouse stocks.
Planning at plant level or for MRP areas
As materials planning are usually carried out at plant level, all available stock in the plant
(from now on described as available Warehouse stock) is taken into account during
planning. However, stocks from individual storage locations can be excluded from
requirements planning or they can be planned independently. These stocks are then not
included in material requirements planning at plant level. On the other hand, consignment
stocks from the vendor are always included in MRP.
You can also carry out MRP for individual MRP areas. You can define the MRP areas. This
means, for example, that you can group several storage locations into one MRP area and
carry out MRP for this MRP area.
Lot-sizing procedures
The standard lot-sizing procedures are available in the R/3 System. However, you can quite
easily integrate your own formulas without much effort.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 25 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
The automatic planning run determines shortages and creates the appropriate procurement
elements. The system creates notes for critical parts and exceptional situations providing
you with the necessary information for processing the planning results.
4.2.1
Purpose
The central role of MRP is to monitor stocks and in particular, to automatically create
procurement proposals for purchasing and production (planned orders, purchase requisitions
or delivery schedules). This target is achieved by using various materials planning methods
which each cover different procedures.
In Janki Corp Ltd. Indirect materials are planned on re-order point basis. Re-order point will
be defined for each & every material in material master at plant level. MRP will calculate net
requirement for each material, plant based on re-order point, lead time, stocks, expected
receipts, expected Issues. MRP output will give planned order/ Purchase requisitions based
on planning parameters. This output can be converted Purchase orders & send to vendors
for supply of materials. The whole process is online having effective planning.

Direct materials will be planned based on report provided for stock level and
consumption for each unit.
Manuals re-order point planning will plan indirect materials based on manual re-order
point.
As a result of materials planning the identification of exact requirement is possible based
on, lead time, stocks, Expected receipt, expected issues planned independent
requirement/ re-order point.
It ensures optimum inventory at minimum procurement cost.
Plant dependent planning will be very easy.
4.2.4
Business Process
In SAP, a material master for the stock material should exist in the system. No stock can be
maintained without a material master.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 26 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
In the material master Re-order levels can be maintained. Whenever the stock goes below
this re-order level a Purchase requisition will be generated through Material Requirements
Plans. If there is preferred vendor for the requirement created, MRP will create a PR with
Vendor assigned. Creating a purchase requisition can create requirements for stock material
on line.
Manual re-order planning is used to achieve the functionality of requirement calculation &
generation of purchase requisitions.
The reorder point should cover the average material requirements expected during the
replenishment lead time.
The safety stock exists to cover both excess material consumption within the replenishment
lead time and any additional requirements that may occur due to delivery delays. Therefore,
the safety stock is included in the reorder level.
The following values are important for defining the reorder point:
Safety stock.
Average consumption.
Replenishment lead time.
The following values are important for defining the safety stock:

Every time a material is withdrawn from the Warehouse, the system checks
whether this withdrawal has caused stock levels to fall below the reorder
level. If this is the case, the system makes an entry in the planning file for the
next planning run
The system then calculates the net requirements. The system compares the available
stock at plant level (including safety stock) plus the firmed receipts that have already
been planned (purchase orders, production orders, firmed purchase requisitions and so
on) with the reorder point. If the sum of the stock plus receipts is less than the reorder
point, a material shortage exists.
Wipro Ltd.

The system then calculates the procurement quantity according to the lot sizing
procedure defined in the material master.
For reorder point planning, the system supports the fixed lot size and Replenish up to
maximum stock level lot-sizing procedures.
The system then schedules the procurement proposal, that is, the system calculates
the dates, on which the purchase order has to be sent, or when production has to begin
and the date on which the vendor has to deliver the goods or by which production has to
have the goods ready.
Various control parameters are available for the total planning procedure and for single-item
planning, which you can set in the initial screen of the planning run.
You use these parameters to determine how the planning run is to be executed and which
results are to be produced.
The control parameters include:
Creation indicator for procurement proposals for materials that are procured
externally
You can choose whether planned orders, purchase requisitions should be created for
materials that are procured externally.
Planning mode
You can determine how the system is to deal with procurement proposals (panned
orders, purchase requisitions, scheduling agreement lines) from the last planning
run, which are not yet firmed, in the next planning run.
Scheduling - You can choose basic date calculation or lead time scheduling.
Once MRP run is over, the following evaluations are available for evaluating the planning
results in consumption-based planning:
MRP list
Current stock/requirements list
Planned orders and purchase requisitions are internal planned elements that can be
changed, rescheduled or deleted at any time.

4.3 Purchasing
The Materials Management (MM) module is fully integrated with the other modules of the
SAP System. It supports all the phases of materials management: materials planning and
control, purchasing, goods receiving, inventory management, and invoice verification.
The tasks of the MM Purchasing component are as follows:
Good communication between all participants in the procurement process is necessary for
Purchasing to function smoothly.
Purchase requisitions are usually regarded as internal documents used within Purchasing.
Requisitions can be created either directly or indirectly.

"Directly" means that someone from the requesting department enters a purchase
requisition manually. The person creating the requisition determines what and how much to
order, and the delivery date.
"Indirectly" means that the purchase requisition is initiated via another SAP component.

There are primary two type of procurement in SAP
A stock material is a material that is kept in stock. Such materials are placed in storage
following a goods receipt. When goods are received by or issued from stores or the
Warehouse, the stock on hand is increased or reduced by the amount of the quantity
received or issued.
When you order a material for stock, the system does not require an account assignment.
This is because the posting to the appropriate stock and consumption accounts occurs
automatically after each goods movement (for example, after a material is received by the
stores or issued from stores). Furthermore, the value and the quantity of the stocked
material are updated in the material master record.
To order a material for stock, the material must have a master record.
When you procure for direct consumption, you specify the consumption purpose by entering
an account assignment (for example, a cost centre). On goods receipt, the material or
service counts as having been consumed. If a material is procured for direct consumption,
the consumption accounts in Financial Accounting are posted when the goods receipt is
entered. The total quantity and value of existing stocks of the material are not affected.
For spare parts under warranty the details will be captured through characteristics
maintained for the material master. During Goods Receipt the warranty details are entered
in the system.
The following list shows the various external purchasing documents available in the standard
SAP System.
Request for quotation (RFQ)
Transmits a requirement defined in a requisition for a material or service to potential
vendors.
Quotation
Contains a vendor's prices and conditions and is the basis for vendor selection.
Purchase order (PO)
The buying entitys request or instruction to a vendor (external supplier) to supply certain
materials or render/perform certain services/works, formalizing a purchase transaction.

Contract
In the SAP Purchasing component, a type of "outline agreement", or longer-term buying
arrangement. The contract is a binding commitment to procure a certain material or service
from a vendor over a certain period of time.
For each item of a purchasing document, specify whether procurement is for stock or for
direct consumption. In a purchasing document, can enter items with or without account
assignments.
If you order stock materials, the ordered material must have a material master record. If
order is for consumable materials, the ordered material may have a material master record.

The system does not automatically generate Part I entries for goods issues of
excisable materials.
The missing entries have to be generated once a day using the Update of Registers
RG 23 (Part I) program for all goods issues involving excisable material.
Ensure that the receipts are updated first before the issues, so that any updation of
incoming Part 1 entries, which were left out, gets updated and inconsistencies
between receipts and issues are thus prevented.
Adjustment Entry
Material write- off / Declared Non-productive:
Create an Excise JV with reference to the material document. The excise duty
debited to the Cenvat account should be reversed.
The excise duty to be reversed is calculated manually or using the get Excise invoice

Additional Excise:
This procedure is used when a vendor has increased the amount of excise duty that
it originally charged.
The additional duty is debited to the Cenvat Account with reference to the vendors
invoice number.
The Credit account can be changed at the posting the excise JV.
Other Adjustments:
When there are any adjustments, which do not fall into any of the above-mentioned
category, then this function is used.
This function can be used to cancel any out going invoice created through J1IS. It

In the purchase order delivery address, if there is a requirement to maintain delivery
addresses other than the ordering plant, then they can be maintained at item level.
If more than one delivery address is required to be maintained then the item has to be split
into more than one line item.
In the Purchase order/Contract apart from the material price, freight, Insurance, excise, tax
and other delivery charges can be maintained in the pricing condition.
These will be maintained through separate Condition types. Condition types are the various
elements in the pricing of the Purchase order. Different condition types will be defined to
meet the requirements of Import purchases and local purchases.
The other delivery charges can be maintained in the Header level i.e. applicable to the
whole Purchase order or in the item level of the Purchase order.
If the delivery charges are maintained at Purchase order level, then the system will treat
them as planned delivery costs. For freight and other delivery charges, if there is a different
vendor for the planned delivery costs, the vendor details can be maintained in the Purchase
order against each of the condition types. Vendor pricing schema will decide which pricing
procedure is applicable for the specific vendor.
The Purchase Order/Contract created will be subjected to an approval process. In the
approval process certain approving personnel can be maintained as mandatory and non
mandatory. If the person is not available alternative persons can be configured in the

Procurement of External Services
The procurement of services may involve the following steps:
Determination and recording of requirements
A need for certain services can arise in a user department of your enterprise, within the
framework of a project (such as the translation of software) or with regard to regular
maintenance work (such as the outsourcing of routine electrical jobs) for instance. The user
department can either prepare a purchase requisition itself, or request Purchasing to do so.
In each case, the requisition is the trigger for procurement activities in MM Purchasing.
Determination of possible sources
In the source determination facility, an instrument for analysing this data, enabling to
establish whether suitable potential bidders exist for the requested services and whether
longer-term business relationships have already been set up with certain service providers
in the form of contracts. The price simulation function can help to choose the desired source
of supply from the sources suggested by the system. In this case, the requisition can then
be converted directly into a standard purchase order or a release order to be issued against
a contract that already exists with the service provider.
Bid invitation procedure
If a bid invitation process is to be initiated for services, an RFQ must be created.
Entry of data from quotations submitted by bidders
When quotations (bids) are received from bidders, the latters prices and conditions are
entered in the RFQs that already exist in the system. The status of the RFQs is then
changed: the RFQs in fact become quotations.
Comparison of quotations
When all quotations have been received and entered, the most favourable one is quickly
determined using the price comparison list. The price comparison list evaluates the
quotations for you at different levels. You can make your decision on the basis of list of all
quotations ranked by total value or compare the quotations at individual outline levels. The
system provides comparative data right down to the individual service (task or activity) level
if required.
Award phase (order placement)
The successful bidder receives either a standard purchase order or a release order issued
against an existing contract, either of which is created by conversion of the relevant
quotation.
Monitoring of purchase orders
Wipro Ltd.
Page 48 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
During the phase of service performance, the cumulative "actual" values (for the services
actually performed) are continually updated in the underlying purchase order (standard PO
or contract release order).
Entry of services actually performed
You enter services that have actually been performed by means of service entry sheets with
reference the PO. Each individual service is recorded together with quantities and values.
Acceptance of services performed
After services have been performed for the firm it has to be recorded in the service entry
sheet, check & formally accept the services.
Verification of invoices for services
At the conclusion of the procurement process, the service providers invoices are
checked for correctness. This involves comparing the value from the accepted entry
sheet with that shown in the invoice and checking that the tax amounts are correct.

Excise related data online with inventory management transactions will be updated.
Material is procured from external or internal sources on the basis of the requirements
determined by Material Requirements Planning. The delivery is entered in Inventory
Management as a goods receipt. The material is stored (and managed under Inventory
Management) until it is delivered to customers (Sales & Distribution), or is used for internal
purposes (for example, for production).
During all transactions, Inventory Management accesses both master data (such as material
master data) and transaction data (such as purchasing documents) shared by all Logistics
components.
It involves
All transactions that bring about a change in stock are entered in real time, and the stocks
are updated as a result of these changes. You can obtain an overview of the current stock
situation of any given material at any time. This, for example, applies to stocks that:
If a further subdivision by lots is required for a material, one batch per lot is possible. These
batches are then managed individually in the stock.

externally owned special stocks separately from standard stock.
The stocks are managed not only on a quantity basis but also by value. The system
automatically updates the following data each time there is a goods movement:
Wipro Ltd.

The valuation area is the organizational level at which a material's stock value is managed.
The valuation area can be plant level or company code level.
In Inventory Management, work is basically done at plant and storage location levels. When
you enter a goods movement, you only have to enter the plant and the storage location of
the goods. The system derives the company code from the plant via the valuation area.
When Good receipt for the purchase order is done system automatically updates stock
quantities & values including P&F, Freight, Delivery charges, incidental charges mentioned in
the PO. For POs having account assignment cost will be debited to relevant G/L account
indicated in PO.
Goods movements include both "external" movements (goods receipts from external
procurement, goods issues for sales orders) and "internal" movements (goods receipts from
production, withdrawals of material for internal purposes, stock transfers, and transfer
postings).
For each goods movement a document is created which is used by the system to update
quantities and values and serves as proof of goods movements.
Inventory management basically involves:
Goods receipt
A goods receipt (GR) is a goods movement with which the receipt of goods from a vendor or
from production is posted. A goods receipt leads to an increase in Warehouse stock.
The System distinguishes between the following types of goods receipts:
1. Goods receipts with reference to an order
2. Other goods receipts
Goods receipts
Goods receipts for Purchase Orders, goods receipts for production orders, subsequent
adjustment of subcontract orders, initial entry of stock balances in to SAP, vendor returns
and customer returns all will be treated as Goods receipt in SAP.
Material documents are generated when there is a goods movement registered in the
system. Numbering of these documents are based on the transaction / event types of the
transaction. Numbering is defined for a fiscal year and internal numbering has been defined
for a material document.

When Goods Movement transaction is run, the system displays an additional tab at header
level for the excise invoice header information, and one tab at item level for the excise
invoice line item information. Fill the data as required.
When save the goods receipt or goods issue, the system also saves the excise invoice
(either captured/created or posted). It creates all appropriate excise register entries,
material documents, and accounting documents
Goods receipt for purchase order process as follows:
1) Choose Goods movement Goods receipt For purchase order PO number
known or PO number unknown.
2) Enter the data on the initial screen:
a. Enter the header data.
b. Select the movement type.
3) If the quantity delivered is intended for the warehouse or for consumption/usage,
select Movement type PO to warehouse (Movement type 101 ).
a. Enter the purchase order number. In addition, we can enter the plant and a
purchase order item, in order to restrict selection of the purchase order items.
4) If you selected PO number not known, you can specify search criteria for the
purchase orders on the initial screen. The system then displays a list of purchase
orders. Select and copy the required purchase order items.
5) The item selection list is displayed. This list contains all of the purchase order items
that satisfy the criteria entered.
6) Select the purchase order items to be copied. If necessary, you can change data in
the selected items on this screen.
7) Copy (adopt) the selected items.
8) Post the document.
Excise capturing process during goods receipt as follows:
1. In the top line, enter the purchase order number and choose.
2. Enter header data as required, following the standard procedure.
In addition, on the Excise Invoice tab:
a. Set the excise action to Capture Excise Invoice or Capture & Post Excise
Invoice.
b. Enter the official excise invoice number and the excise invoice date.
4. Enter line item data as required, again, following the standard procedure.
In addition, on the Excise Item tab, change the data so that it matches the vendor's
excise invoice, if necessary.
5. Save the goods receipt.
We can also enter a freight supplier if the condition type for delivery costs allows to do.

Stock transfer
A stock transfer is the removal of material from one storage location and its transfer to
another storage location. Stock transfers can occur either within the same plant or between
two plants.
There are two methods of stock transfer.
One-Step Procedure:

Reservations
With this component, a request to the Warehouse to keep materials ready for withdrawal at
a later date and for a certain purpose can be made.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 54 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
A reservation for goods issue can be requested by various departments for various account
assignment objects (such as cost centre, order, asset, etc.).
The purpose of a reservation is to ensure that a material will be available when it is needed.
It also serves to simplify and accelerate the goods issue process and prepare the tasks at
the point of goods issue. It is also important that Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
takes reservations into account. It means that required materials are procured in time if
they are out of stock.
In SAP the user department specifying where the material is required, what quantity is
required, and when it is required can create a Reservation. While running the material
planning, based on the Reservation, the system will generate a Purchase requisition
automatically, if there is no enough stock on the required day. Reservations do not block the
stock from being issued to any other requirement.
In SAP standard movement types are defined to differentiate between the various types of
goods movement described above. The following is the list of some of the commonly used
movement types that will be used in Janki Corp Ltd.

In SAP R/3, physical inventory can be carried out both for a companys own stock and for
special stock. Inventory for a companys stock and for special stocks (such as consignment
stock at customer, external consignment stock from vendor, or returnable packaging) must
be taken separately (in different physical inventory documents), however. Note that the
blocked stock returns and the stock in transfer cannot be inventoried. If these stocks are
still to be counted in a physical inventory, these must be transfer posted to other stocks
capable of inclusion in a physical inventory.
The stock in a Warehouse can be divided into stock types. In the standard system, a
physical inventory can be carried out for the following stock types:
Unrestricted-use
Quality inspection stock
Blocked stock
Inventory of all stock types mentioned can be taken in a single transaction. For the
materials to be inventoried, one item is created in the physical inventory document for
every stock type.
Physical inventory takes place at storage location level. A separate physical inventory
document is created for every storage location.
If a material does not exist in a storage location, this means that no goods movement has
ever taken place for the material in the storage location. The material, therefore, has never
had any stock in this storage location. The material does not exist at stock management
level in the storage location. It is therefore not possible to carry out a physical inventory for
the material in this storage location.
This is not to be confused with a material for which a goods movement has taken place and
for which the stock balance is currently zero. A physical inventory must be carried out in this
case, since storage location data is not deleted when the stock balance is zero.
SAP R/3 supports the following physical inventory procedures:
Periodic inventory
Continuous inventory
Cycle counting
Inventory sampling
Periodic Inventory
In a periodic inventory, all stocks of the company are physically counted on the balance
sheet key date. In this case, every material must be counted. During counting, the entire
Warehouse must be blocked for material movements.
Continuous Inventory
In the continuous inventory procedure, stocks are counted continuously during the entire
fiscal year. In this case, it is important to ensure that every material is physically counted at
least once during the year.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 57 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Cycle Counting
Cycle counting is a method of physical inventory where inventory is counted at regular
intervals within a fiscal year. These intervals (or cycles) depend on the cycle counting
indicator set for the materials. The Cycle Counting Method of Physical Inventory allows fastmoving items to be counted more frequently than slow-moving items.
Inventory Sampling
In MM Inventory sampling randomly selected stocks of the company are physically counted
on the balance sheet key date. If the variances between the result of the count and the
book inventory balance are small enough, it is presumed that the book inventory balances
for the other stocks are correct.

Material Master Record
As a rule, a material master record is created for every material. The information contained
in this record includes valuation data for the material. When maintaining the material
master record, Must decide the following:
Whether a particular material should be valuated at all
Whether different sub-stocks of a material should be valuated differently

Wipro Ltd.
Page 60 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
The stocks of a particular material in this individual plant are valuated together. Stocks in
other plants are not included in this valuation area.
Valuation class
You group together different materials with similar properties into valuation classes so that
you do not have to manage a separate stock account for every material.
Which valuation class a material can be assigned to depends on the material type. You can
define the following assignments in Customizing:
All materials with the same material type are assigned to just one valuation class.
Different materials with the same material type are assigned to different valuation
classes.
Materials with different material types are assigned to a single valuation class.
A material is assigned to a valuation class in the material master record. The system checks
whether the material type allows the material to be assigned to the valuation class
specified.
The system refers to the valuation class of a material to determine which stock account to
post to when a posting is made for this material.
Material type
You assign every material to a material type when you create it. Examples of material types
in the standard system include raw materials, operating supplies and finished products.
The material type controls the properties of a material and which data must be maintained
for the material. The following control features are important for valuation:
Movement type
For every material movement, there is a movement type in the SAP System. The movement
type controls the properties of the movement, for example, which entries you must make
when entering a material movement, and which updates are carried out when the
movement is posted. The following control features are important for valuation:
1. Reason for movement type field is used for addressing many issues-for
employees,contractors etc.since it is a configurational value, the same has to be
mentioned.

All the materials will be created in the system with accounting & costing views which
needs to be valuated either with price control S or V. Initial price will be updated in
material master while creation. Based on receipts value moving average price will keep
on getting updated online for every receipt. Material having standard price will have
moving average price updation only for statistical purpose. Every issue will be with
corresponding price in the material master with relevant financial posting.
It completes the material procurement process, which has started with the purchase
requisition and resulted in a goods receipt.
It allows invoices that do not originate in materials procurement (such as services,
expenses, course costs) to be processed.
It allows credit memos to be processed, either as invoice reversals or return deliveries.

Document Parking
When company receives an invoice, enter the data in the system, and save the invoice
document. The system does not make any postings. Parked documents can be changed.
When finished changing the document, can post the parked document.
One of the basic questions is the invoice reference, which enables you to clearly allocate the
invoice to a business transaction. If such a reference exists, the system uses "knowledge"
that it already has and proposes the appropriate values when verifying the invoice, for
example:
Wipro Ltd.
Page 63 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
If the vendor invoice contains different information, you can overwrite the data proposed.
The system checks whether your entries are allowed and display a warning or error
message if anything is incorrect.
Delivery costs are costs that are invoiced for a delivery over and above the value of the
delivery itself. This includes freight charges, customs duty, or other costs.
There are the following types of delivery costs:
Planned Delivery Costs
Planned delivery costs are entered in the purchase order on an item basis. Provisions are set
up for the relevant costs at goods receipt. The delivery costs planned in the purchase order
are referenced when the invoice is entered. The provisions are cleared. The values proposed
for the items come from the purchase order history.
Unplanned Delivery Costs
Unplanned delivery costs are only entered when the invoice is entered. No provision is made
at goods receipt.
Will be at Header Level.
Logistics invoice verification facilitates four different activities:
Invoice
The vendor invoices for the goods that have ordered from the company. Passing the
same bill submitted by him.
Credit memo
The vendor has invoiced too much for the last delivery, for example, less than the
agreed quantity was delivered and that at the agreed total price, or returned part of
a delivery to the vendor due to quality problems.
Subsequent debit
Already received & posted an invoice from vendor for all the goods received.
Subsequently, freight costs are to be taken into account; however, the invoice
quantity remains the same.
Subsequent credit
Already received a credit memo from vendor for all the goods received.
Subsequently, freight costs are to be credited to company; however, the credit memo
quantity remains the same.
In Logistics Invoice Verification as in other applications the SAP system often needs to
retrieve stored data at many points, change this data where necessary, or add new
information.
Wipro Ltd.
Page 64 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Depending on the type of information, the data in the SAP System is stored in different
master records, such as the material master record or the vendor master record. This
central data storage function avoids redundant data and ensures that the different
departments use the most up-to-date information from various departments (Material
Requirements Planning, Purchasing, Inventory Management, Quality Management, Logistics
Invoice Verification, and so on).
4.7.1
Purpose
Logistics Invoice Verification is situated at the end of the logistics supply chain that includes
Purchasing, Inventory Management, and Invoice Verification. It is in Logistics Invoice
Verification that Incoming Invoices are verified in terms of their content, prices and
arithmetic.
When the invoice is posted, the invoice data is saved in the system. The system updates the
data saved in the invoice documents in Materials Management and Financial Accounting.
Visibility across MM & FI module on the status of invoices is online. Material price changes
are adjusted in inventory valuation at the time of invoice posting. GR based invoice
verification ensures document flow & data consistency.

Payments to the vendor will be exactly as per the pricing structure of the Purchasing
document.
It will ensure multiple vendor payment for against same PO like material payment to
one vendor, freight payment to another vendor, loading charges to third vendor etc.
Invoice posting can be online to ensure on time payment to vendors.
Subsequent debit & Credits can be posted to vendor with reference already paid
invoices.
Unplanned delivery cost can be posted to inventory to availability of stocks while
making the payment to vendor.
4.7.4
Wipro Ltd.
Business Process
Page 65 of 70
MM Business Blueprint
Receive an invoice from the vendor referring to a purchase order and a goods receipt, for
example. When first call up the application, enter the company code that work in. All further
transactions are then posted in this company code. If you want to switch to a different
company code, can do this during processing.
Entering a vendor invoice involves:
1.
2.
3.
4.
The last step is not mandatory. If there is no balance or if the variances are within the
tolerance limits set, can post the invoice immediately after entering the allocation data. If
the system cannot post the invoice, can check the invoice items and change them. When
post without checking the invoice items, variances in individual items can cancel each other
out.
The following accounts are particularly important for Invoice Verification:
Vendor Accounts
There is a separate account in the sub-ledger for each vendor that all amounts concerning
this vendor are posted to. Making a posting to the vendor account is not the same as
making a payment; payment is only made when the Financial Accounting department posts
the vendor's payment to a bank account.
Stock Accounts
In the R/3 System, there is no separate account for each material. Instead, different
materials with similar features are grouped together in a common account (for example,
raw materials: acids). The account relevant for a material is defined in the material master
record when a material is created.
The system only posts to the stock account when a price difference occurs for an invoice.
GR/IR Clearing Accounts
The GR/IR clearing account is an "intermediate" account between the stock account and the
vendor account. At goods receipt, the net invoice amount expected is posted to the stock
account. The offsetting entry is posted to the GR/IR clearing account. This posting is then
cleared by an offsetting entry on the vendor account at invoice receipt.
Tax Accounts
The system makes postings to special tax accounts when invoices include tax.
Price Differences Accounts
Price differences have to be posted to a price difference s account if price differences have
occurred in an invoice and when invoices are posted net and no posting can be made to the
stock account.

5 INTERFACE REQUIREMENT
Weigh Bridge Interface
Weigh Bridge interface is currently used for weighing of Raw materials and finished goods.
The Goods Receipt for Raw materials is carried out after approval of reading from Weigh
Bridge. Transport vendor wise goods receipt is carried out considering the allowed tolerance.
Weigh Bridge interface requires development in SAP to record the readings from the
weighbridge which will be stored. Upon approval of these readings a goods receipt will be
posted in the system.
