#SAP SERIAL NUMBER PROFILE IS MISSING FOR MATERIAL IN PLANT SERIAL NUMBERS#

And for using this material as an equipment, the status of the equipment should be AVLB. (Equipment in stores)īusiness meaning of ESTO is that, this material 758 serial no 2 is inventorized in store. In this case, the process is exactly same, only difference being that we do not need to activate the equipment view, since it is already activated.įurther point to be noted is that in both cases Equipment status is ESTO. Equipment master is still not accessible in IE02, till the equipment view is activated manually.įurther if Eq Req = Always without equipment.Equipment number will be automatically created, along with serial no, on doing GR.So the meaning of Setting “Eq Requirement = Without Equipment” is that: Equipment master is now available and can be accessed. Just Save and the equipment view will be saved. This means that the eq view has been created for this serialized material (serial no 5 for material 757). On pressing the “Activate Eq View” button, we get this screen. Now click the “Equipment View” (activate) button. We can see that Equipment field in the above screen is still empty. Only then we can access eq master in IE02.ĭouble click the equipment no in the IQ08 screen. Here, we need to do something called as “Activation of Equipment View”. However, if we try to open eq master in IE02, the equipment doesn’t exist. So point to be noted here is that, on GR serial no is created and also EQUIPMENT NO is created, contrary to the expectation of “no equipment would be created”. We can see that serial no 1 to 5 has been created and also equipment numbers 10005707 to 10005711 has been created automatically.

Serial number can be mentioned manually, as well as automatically by checking the check box.Ĭheck the serial numbers created for material 757 in IQ08.

Therefore, when we add 757 in MIGO, a serial no tab automatically appears. Since the Material Master 757 has been assigned with a serial no profile, all stock of 757 is supposed to be serialized on GR. And the equipment no will not be generated because of “without equipment” definition.ĭoing GR for 757, using 501 movement type. So the common expectation would be that when we do GR of this material, serial no will be automatically created. In the serial no profile, we have 2 settings for “Equipment Requirement”.įor the above serial no profile PM, Equipment requirement is defined as “Without Equipment”. In this document I will be discussing the automatic serializing of a material, while Goods Receipt.Ĭonsider material 757, which has been assigned Serial No Profile = PM.
