Hi Experts,

When we are creating a return Sales order(with reference forward invoice no.) than duplicate materials are coming in sales order. But when we create same return order without reference than duplicate materials are not coming,

Please suggest how to remove duplicate materials sales order during with reference creation.

Find the enclosed screenshot for the same.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Shatrughan,

Based on your reply, can you confirm whether you are using the same Main item and Sub-item category in both the Invoice and the Return Order?. If you are using the same item categories then it will explode the BoM.

As mentioned in the OSS note, please use separate item categories for the Invoice and for the Return orders. In the item categories for the Return order, the BoM structure scope indicator should not be activated to explode.

Hi Shashi,

Thanks shashi for your valuable response. Now we got solution of this issue.

Due to the BOM structure scope indicator is active in the item categories for the Return order it was happening. Now we remove the same from return order item category.


Thanks for all experts comment on this issue.

Dear Tomar,

Thank u for sharing screen shot .

there are two things u have to check .

1. forward invoice item category is TAP , which BOM is there for single level of material , see the screen shot . when you copy with reference to forward invoice the dependent items also will copy .

2.In Return invoice your item category is ZTAS for line item 10 (third party item ) and rest all item category it is ZRTU . check in this way also .

Hi Reddy,

I checked In both item categories (TAP and ZTA5), Structure scope "A" is defined. For return order, item category is ZTA5 (not third party item TAS)

HI Shatrughan,

           For the return item category ZTAS  why is the BOM explosion is activated in field "Structure Scope"? Ideally for a return item you should not explode it again as the original invoice contains the BOM components and those are copied to return order .  I guess the Structure scope is set to A for ZTA5 as you are using the same item category for the return orders created with out reference to an invoice. I suggest you to create another return item category (similar to ZTAS with the Structure scope as BlanK) and propose that item category in the copy control settings from Invoice to Return Order.  So for a return order created with reference to an invoice this new item cat will be determined which will not explode again.  Also Make sure that the new item category is maintained as a manual item category for the return order type in VOV4.

For return orders created with out reference to an invoice you can continue using the ZTA5

Looks like BOM or free goods items, not sure what you have. in item cat determination for returns type, check if there is a higher level item cat setting. Perhaps remove that may work.

Hi

Share the screen of Invoice where we can see material numbers in invoice and in return order. Is it happening for some specific material or for every material and every invoice?

Hi

It is strange. You need to check and compare your settings with standard settings. See where is the difference in your settings and standard (F2 Invoice and RE order) for copy control, item category determination and item category settings. Check copying routines, BOM settings in VOV7 and item category determination in VOV4. There must be something different from standard settings and you need to identify that.

Thank$
