Hi,

Hi Eli, I have the same question as JSLRA!

The Client want to activate Availability Control in MB21 but without implementing EHP3.

We are in ECC 6.0-

Is there any way to do it? I check in SFW5 and i don´t have Business Function PSM_FM_CI_1.

I also look for  program RFFMRP_MAT_RESERVATION but it doesn´t exist in my system.

Many thanks for your help!!!

Hi Jose Luis, this is possible as for Enhacement Package 3. Integrate Material Reservations with FM. PSM_FM_CI_1, where a funds reservation is created along with the MM reservation.

Best Regards

Dear José Luis,

Until EA-PS enhancement pack 3(EhP3), Material Reservation documents

were not integrated to funds management(FM). From EhP3 the integration

of materials management to Funds Management is available via Business

function PSM_FM_CI_1. Even when you have the business function turned

on, the material reservations generated from Materials Requirement

Planning(MRP) and Plant Maintainance orders are not integrated to FM.

This is due to some technical limitations. But these material

reservations can be updated to Funds management and can be run through

Availability control(AVC) by using program RFFMRP_MAT_RESERVATION.

Please, take into account the next customizing activities in order to be able to work with materials reservations:

Public Sector Management>Funds Management Government->Funds

Management-Specific Postings->Earmarked Funds and Funds

Transfers->Define Integration Scenarios->Define Company Code Group. And

assign the company code to the company code group at

Public Sector Management>Funds Management Government->Funds

Management-Specific Postings->Earmarked Funds and Funds Transfers->Defin

e Integration Scenarios->Assign Company Code to a Company Code Group.

And then maintain the document types for the company code group at

Public Sector Management>Funds Management Government->Funds

Management-Specific Postings->Earmarked Funds and Funds

Transfers->Define Integration Scenarios->Maintain Data for Integration

Scenario.

In the document types for the EF

document that is configured for the Material reservation, you have to

make the quantity and prices fields as optional. You can do that at the

IMG step:

Public Sector Management>Funds Management Government->Funds

Management-Specific Postings->Earmarked Funds and Funds Transfers->Field

Control for Earmarked Funds and Funds Transfers->Define Field Selection

String.
