Capacity split & operation scheduling

$
0
0

Hello gurus,

i'm facing the following problem:

- i have set in a WC for the scheduled capacity type 001 two single capacity (16 * 2 = 32 h)

- using co02 (or cm25), i split the order in the two single capacity

- the start date/hour is the same for the operation and the splits, but these ones should have a different finish date/hour, because the split duration is different based on the quantity and the available capacity of each split respect to the WC total capacity;

- the operation start and finish date doesn't change despite the splitting.

i was expecting that the operation finish date gets the lastest split finish date/hour, but it is not working.

I'm missing some configuration or the system behave this way correctly?

Thanks in advance.

Bye.

Batch Split Incorrectly?

$

0

I have a problem with Batch Split.

 

Current inventory for raw material A:

 

BatchQuantity
000000000120 KG
000000000230 KG

 

An order that requires 40 KG of material A was created and released.

Under normal scenarios, the material will be split in such a way whereby the header batch will have 0 requirement quantity and the split batches will have non-zero requirement quantities that the total equals to the required quantity for the order as shown in the table below:

 

ComponentReqmt QtyUnitBatchBatch KeyCommitted Quantity
A0KG10
A20KG0000000001220
A20KG0000000002220

 

However, in some of my orders, the requirement quantity for the header batch is non-zero and this caused confusion for warehouse because the header batch line without a batch assigned got printed out in the pick list. For example:

 

ComponentReqmt QtyUnitBatchBatch KeyCommitted Quantity
A10KG110
A20KG0000000001220
A10KG0000000002210

 

I have checked in the system and found that out of a total of about 5000+ split batches, only 36 had this problem.

How did the header batch end up getting a non zero requirement quantity?

I tried to replicate but is not able to as the system will be able to split the batch properly.

MDVP issue - availability check

Hi all

 

Here's my problem. I am using the MDVP transaction for availability check. But for some reason, when SAP shows me the missing parts and I check the stocks, I find that there is stock in the plant.

 

What could be wrong with MDVP? And does MDVP check the availability on Plant or Storage Location level?

 

Please help

 

Thanks

Dear SAP Gurus,

 

1. If I activate backflush indicator in Material master, Workcenter, Routing and Production order. Then which backflush indicator the system will choose for automatic backfushing and what is the significance of backflush indicator in 4 stages?

 

2. If I activate automatic goods receipt indicator in Control key and Production scheduling profile. Then which Auto GR Indicator the system will choose for Auto GR and what is the significance of Auto GR indicator in this 2 stages?

 

3. What is difference between collective creation of production version and individual creation of collective version?

hello sir,

requesting to all sap gurus,help me out.

 

COOISPI is not showing all the withdrawn quantity while I am taking the component wise report. If the materials are issued in multiple batches i could not view all the consumed batches instead it is showing the first record only against the order. Please refer the screen shot in which order no.1020603 consumption of 110001 material withdrawn is shown wrongly.


Fixed Lot size with splitting but without rounding value as multiple

$
0
0

Hi all,

I have a requirement where business wants a particular size of lot in planned order.

The scenario is when customer order drops in for part A for say 2500 EA, after MRP run the total amount/fixed amount they should plan to produce is 4500 EA and in that also they should produce in individual lot sizes of 1000 EA

So for demand of 2500 EA, they expect MRP to create planned orders for total of 4500 EA  with each planned order as 1000,1000,1000,1000 and last planned order of 500.

The closest to this requirement that i have in Standard SAP is FS lot size in which i can maintain Fixed lot size and rounding value however in my requirement fixed lot size is not divisible by rounding value. I.E  4500/1000 is not a number but fraction.

 

So my question is how can i take care of this requirement ?

 

Thank you for your time

Reducing Forecast Requirements

$

0

Good evening.

 

I need your help in order to understand the issue of the forecast requirements reduction. Although I have searched and i have read from various resources, I am still not confident enough that I have really understood it. Fore example, at the "SAP Material Requirements Planning (PP-MRP)"

book I am reading (page 29):

 

"Features:

The forecast, which calculates future requirements using historical data, is carried out at regular intervals. This offers the advantage that requirements,  which are automatically determined, are continually adapted to suit current consumption needs. The forecast requirement is reduced by the material  withdrawal so that the forecast requirement quantity that has already been produced is not included in the planning run again."

 

So far, so good. What i understand is that system compares actual consumption with the forecast requirement and it adjust the requirement's

quantity accordingly. But, immediately bellow, at the same page, it reads:

 

"Reducing Forecast Requirements:  

Reducing forecast requirements by consumption:

If consumption is higher than the forecast requirements in the current month, then the system also  reduces future forecast requirements. 

Reducing current forecast requirements by consumption:

If consumption is higher than the forecast requirements  in the current month, then the system does not reduce future forecast requirements."

 

At this point, i am completely lost. Shouldn't be the other way round? If consumption in this month is higher than the requirements, shouldn't

system increase next month's forecast requirement? Why next month's forecasting requirement should be reduced?

 

I would really appreciate it if you could also point me to any further resources regarding requirements consumption you think would be useful to me,

since so far i had no luck in understanding it.

 

Best personal regards to all,

Nikos

DOUBT MATERIAL CONSUMPTION OF ALTERNATE BOM

DOUBT IS IN ALTERNATE BOM RAW MATERIAL CONSUMPTION

SFG1

RM1-MAIN BOM

RM2-ALT BOM

 

SAP QTY IN PLANT

RM1-30 KG

RM2-100 KG

 

WHEN IT IS GONE FOR PRODUCTION SFG 1 IT SHOULD CONSUME RAW MATERIAL 40 KG EITHER RM1 OR RM2. BUT IN THIS ALTERNATE BOM, IT IS TAKEN RM2 - 40 KG. 40 KG OF RM2 CONSUMED.

 

MY DOUBT IS WHY IT IS NOT TAKEN RM1 MATERIAL CONSUMING 30 KG AND THEN RM2 10 KG.

 

4 NOS SFG IS 40 KGs

Planned delivery time is not taken into consideration when creating PR

$

Good afternoon.

 

I am running an MTS scenario, where i am using EX as lot size and PD as MRP type. When i run MRP for my material,

MRP creates one Purchase requisition per day (grouping daily reqs, as it is the standard behavior of EX in MTS scenario),

but it does not take into consideration the planned delivery time for the material. In other words, it creates the PR the same

time that the requirements are needed.

 

Although i have searched, i am not sure i have understood why this is happening. One possible solution could be that for this

material's supplier an inforecord exists, with zero (0) as planned delivery time. I know that MRP, in case an inforecord exists,

it reads the planned delivery time from the inforecord, and in this case this time was 0. So, i entered the inforecord and changed it

from 0 to 10 days, but again, no change in PR date. I also went to transaction OPPQ and for the specific plant i unclicked the

"Scheduling/inforecord agreement" from the "External Procurement" option, but again, nothing changed.

 

Is there something i can do, or this is normal behavior of EX lot size type when in MTS scenario?

 

Thank you very much,

Nikos


Production order creation Issue

hello sir

sap gurus,



SAP should not allow Planned order to Production order creation if BOM or Rouitng is not present for the material code.

current date scheduling is picking a future date in production order

$
0
0

Hi,

 

When I choose current date scheduling type during production order creation, after scheduling it is adjusted to a future date i.e.

 

If basic start date: 09/09/2015

then after scheduling it is adjusted to 12/09/2015.

 

In the first operation following interoperation times are maintained

 

Standard queue time: 2.5 day (maintained in the operation)

Standard queue time: 2.5 day (maintained in the work center scheduling view)


Note that as per factory calendar all are work days


Can any one guide in this systems behaviour.


Thanks in advance

Firming Indicator (*) for Scheduling Agreements not consistent between MD04 and MD05

$
0
0

Hello SAP Gurus,

 

We are seeing a certain behavior in the system where a Scheduling Agreement is MD04 marked with firm indicator *, but in MD05 it is not.

 

Observations:

1. These SAs are within the Firm Zone indicated in the master data (ME33L).

2. These SAs are generated by the MRP run on the same day. For example, SA was generated on September 9, 2015. When you check on the same day, it shows the SA without the Firm Indicator in MD05, but when checking in MD04, it is marked with a *.

3. After the next MRP run (ie September 10), I notice that these SAs are already marked with a * in MD05 and by then is consistent with MD04.

 

I am thinking that this is expected given that the SA was just created. I have also checked notes 354164 and 204153 and they seem to support my theory but the scenarios provided do not specifically point to my case.

 

Can anyone confirm that this is expected system behavior that there is a difference between the MRP list and Stock Requirements list? If not, any inputs on what else I can check?

SAP MRP settings for my requirement

Hi,

 

We are changing a plants MRP type from PD to Reorder point with external requirements within the lead time(ZZ).The only thing I want the new MRP type ZZ to do is to calculate how much to procure based on re-order point level, receipts/requirements and DO NOT consider Forecast to come up with a proposal as checked in OMDQ within the lead time.

 

ZZ New MRP Type:

MRP_1.png

 

Also, the current plant is live using PD as MRP type with the following settings,

 

Current PD MRP type settings:

MRP_2.png

 

My concern here is what should be my settings on my ZZ reorder point MRP type so that VSF reductions are not affected and it should work the same way as we are doing today, Sales order that are currently being put into this existing live plant is not being affected and must consume forecast as the same way. I am sure I do not want to consider forecast to plan in re-order point.


Thanks

Availabilty check for the production order

$

Hi,

 

I have a scenario on the availability check for the components on the production order.

 

It is basically a MTO scenario:

 

Header Material:3011000010

 

Converting planned order to production order.

 

Components:

2011000011

2011000012

1011000030

1011000031

 

All the components are of individual customer stock consumption.

 

Problem:

 

Now I have stock for the materials against the sale order for component 1011000031 for 80 nos but system commited qty says only 32 pcs how is that getting committed in the order. Pls clarify and even though i have 80 pcs it says missing parts pls clarify and through some light to clear this issue.

 

Note: For all the material in the MRP 4 view : All are kept blank means individual as well as collective to suit both the needs.

 

Scope of check parameters:

 

1. Include the safety stock

2. Incl stock in transfer

3. Incl qualiity insp stock

4. incl purchase orders

5. incl dep reqs

6. include reservations

7 include sale reqts

8. include deliveries

 

Include planned orders: A option is given means: Check firmed planned orders only.

 

Regards,

 

Deepak GS
