Hi Siva,

There is a catch in the serial no upload. Since we use this rampantly, and I developed the solution so am aware of this.

The issue is that you cannot do a mass upload of serial nos using this.

Suppose you have 50 products that the Vendor is shipping, and each has a serial no for warranty requirement, then do u ask the vendor to go to the option and upload 50 times?

this about this..

Hi Achint,

Seems interesting and i am ineterested to know more about how you solved this.

I too may require this.

Hope you can help me.

Since we are just analysing how to start using serial number in SNC.

Hi Siva,

So the solution is not standard SAP. You need a webdynpro chap to enhance the webscreen to give you an option to upload an excel csv file.

The excel file will be having only serial nos in sequence. (Assumption here is that its the same product that you have in one ASN). So assuming its a mouse for eg, then its Mouse Model ABC qty 50. So the Serial no can be SERIAL1, SERIAL2, SERIAL3... SERIAL50; in one column. which will get uploaded.

Behind the scene, you will have a logic that will check if there is another serial no, if yes, then repeat the code to add another line, return the serial no value to it. loop it. Continue until no more serial nos available, then stop.

Maybe you could also add a logic to check the no of components in the ASN, and return value based on both excel not returning INITIAL and ASN qty greater than already no of values returned.

Do let me know what happens .

Hi Achint,

Super and Thank you for the logic, i will try to do it when serial no. is implemeted.

Which company you are working ?

May be you send me in my email if not here.

Hi Guys,

I am able to create ASN.

But when i want to add serial number going via 'Show Details' this error occurs.

Error : You are not authorized to create an ASN with current MD
configuration

I got full access and still i face the same issue

HI,

You have to maintain Serial number profile in Master data for the above product in ECC.

Then CIF material to SNC.

Hi Ravi,

Still i have the same issue.

Product has been transfered to SNC with serial number profile.

Hi,

Can any one help me to solve this Serial number issue in SNC.

Do we have configuration setting to be done ?

[srilakshmikp]

Hi Siva,

There are no specific configuration for serial number in SNC. This is a standard functionality which allows supplier to enter the serial numbers at item level during ASN creation.

The only draw back is supplier can enter Serial numbers into ASN via SNC web ui only, duelist download file do not have the option to upload ASN with serial numbers.

Coming on to the issue you are having to enter the serial number, we have faced this issue earlier when we were trying to enter gross weight and volume information during ASN creation.

We applied the OSS note : 1503933 (Description of the SAP note is incorrect) in our system and this fixed our issue. Not sure if this note is still valid for latest version of SNC. But you can check and implement this note.

If you are still getting the error, pls try to assign SAP_ALL role to your id and try creating the ASN. If that works then its an issue with the user access.

On ASN Maintenance Screen

Select ASN line item and click on ASN Item details.

You can now see item level details appear

Next tab to ASN Item details is Serial Number Tab

You can ADD serial number for ASN item there.

Hi Ravi,

Thank you for the information.

But i see only Show details and not Item details.

When i click the show details, it gives me error as below,

Error : You are not authorized to create an ASN with current MD

Is something to be activated ?

Appreciate your help.

Hi Siva,

Please check your authorization with security team for your role.

Does it allow you to create ASN.

Thanks,

Ravi

[Former Member]

Hi Ravi,

Yes, it allows me to create ASN, but not allowing to see the Show details.

Hi Siva,

Can you check in SPRO delivery what confirmation control key you have maintained in SNC.

Try changing for PO as ASN and Optional.

Thanks,

Ravi

[Former Member]

Hi Ravi,

We are already using ASN and it is working fine for long time.

Now we want to add serial number which is not able to add.

May be i will also check with the guy who has all access.

Is there setting for serial no. ?

Go to SNC portal

First maintain Master Data ->Number Range -> Number Range attributes

then maintain Master Data -> Number Range -> ASN Number range Intervals

Thank you Tejinder for your reply,

We are already using ASN in SNC.

Why are you asking to create Number range again for ASN ?

I have issue in Serial number where supplier has to input the serial number when creating ASN and it is not shown in ASN screen.
