MRP Paramenters
Hello Everyone,
I am looking for help on MRP parameters.
I would like to know if there's any way on SAP DEP to be able to verify the parameters around the reorder quantity of a material. In my organization we have an issue where the MRP Manager can decide if or not to change the reorder quantities and this is causing quite a friction as you would expect this goes against Annual Operating Plan for other functions like warehouse etc.
So basically, I have been tasked with investigating how the parameters of MRP work and therefore I am here seeking advise on this.
Thank you,
Marius
Can Planning Calendar override Factory Calendar settings?
Hi Experts,
We have a scenario wherein our Factory Calendar(US) is having 5 days working(Saturday's & Sunday's closed) & Capacity Planning/leveling Calendar(ZB) is having 365 days a year as working.
MRP plans based on Factory Calendar(US) & Capacity Planners schedule their production on weekends using transaction MF50 & CM25 which basically looks at the Calendar maintained at Work center level(CR02>Capacities tab>Capacity Category>ZB)
Now, there is a requirement wherein we need MRP to plan only select materials on weekends & drop Purchase Requisitions on Saturdays/Sundays.
For that we created a Planning Calendar(PC1) via.MD25 & then maintained it in the MRP2 view of the material master.
But, when we are trying to run MRP ,the Order proposals are not dropping on weekends.
Even when we are manually trying to schedule Production(Planned Orders) using MF50,the system looks at the Factory Calendar & reschedules the Order for a Sunday on preceding Friday as the Factory Calendar(US) is only open on week days.
Is there any other per-requisite i need to maintain apart from MD25?
regards,
Rishi
Serial Numbers linking PP and SD ?
Dear seniors,
We have a MTO process with serial numbers.
This is the standard business scenario:
Sales Order of 5 pcs. MRP Runs and generates a Planned Order converted into a Production Order.
The GR from production is done with serial numbers. Now we have a special stock E of 5 pcs with serials.
When the delivery is done, the GI is performed based on the Sales ORder special stock.
This is our constraint:
We don't want to deliver those serials from above. It is not efficient to spend time to search for a specific serial.
We want to be able to deliver the 5 pcs without selecting the specific serials.
Please advise based on your experience if this situation is handled by SAP
Many thanks,
GR from Process order into blocked stock
Hi
I want to make the Good Receipt from process order(or production order) to go into blocked stock instead of QI inspection stock or unrestricted stock. Basically I want to set the stock type (AFPO-INSMK) on the goods receipt tab of the process order to blocked status for some materials when creating the process orders for them. I couldn't find the solution through configuration settings and started looking for user exits.
On some of the forum threads, it was suggested to use the user exits PPCO0006, PPCO0007. But I found that these user exits are only for changing the header data of process orders. The stock type is at the item level (AFPO-INSMK). I could find any other user-exit or BADI to edit the stock type (AFPO).
Please let me know if this could be achieved either through standard configuration setting or user exits.
Thanks

Scrap movement type not happening after confirmation in MFBF
Dear Team,
We are following MTO-Repetitive scenario. My query is, if there is a planned order of quantity 100. In MFBF, if I confirm scrap of 10 quantity, neither the planned order quantity is getting reduced to 90 nor the document with movement type 551 is happening. Please find the attachment for the movement types maintained in my REM profile. But the component quantity is getting consumed where 261 movement type is happening. But for the material which was confirmed as scrap is not saved/stored anywhere in the system and I can only see in MCP6 Tcode. Please help in knowing where I am going wrong and the table/field name where this quantity gets stored (other than S225 table)
Thankyou.

Recovery and Fresh Solvent for MRP planning
Dear Experts,
Need your help in below scenario.
We are working for a chemical industry and a facing a constraint in planning and consumption of a raw material which is Solvent
The solvent is assigned in number of BOMS. Now, please find the below BOM structure.
Header Material( X)- Halb QTY-1L
Components---------- ROH1(1L), ROH2(1L), ROH3(10L)(Solvent)
Out of this 10 L of Solvent, 20% gets consumed in the process and 80% is received as MLR( Mother Liquor)
This MLR is further recycled to get the fresh Solvent which is ROH3.
Concerns
1) How will we design the BOM in which 20% Fresh solvent is consumed and rest 80% Solvent is obtained as MLR? same material code or different?
2) Again 80% solvent is recycled to get fresh solvent, so how MRP planning will work out so that system should first consider recycled version of solvent stock and should trigger the requirement for Fresh solvent as per the BOM qty?
Appreciate your valuable inputs
best regards

Serial Number Issue While Doing Subcontracting
Dear Experts,
We have a requirement from client,There are some tools which goes for refurbishment to vendor.
During this process the tools are being handled in serial numbers.
In this case we have maintained recursive BOM for the material in which the same material goes to vendor with serial Number Say 'SR1' and same material code will be received but the Problem is that while we are doing GRN i.e. receiving material from vendor (101 mov type) at that time system is not allowing to assign the serial number which we have sent and system is throwing error.
We want that the system should allow us to assign the same Serial Number.
I have already gone through some scn threads but didn't find any solution.
Please check the attached Screenshots.
Please help ..!!!

How to print already dispatched orders on shopfloor
Hi experts,
lets say I have operations of multiple orders dispatched in cm25 based on my available capacity. once I am done with this work, the next step is to print these orders in the right sequence that needs to be executed on shop floor. what transaction can I use to print them based on the start date of the operation?
I need to sort all the dispatched operations of the orders, starting with earliest operation to the last operation and then print them and provide them to shop floor supervisor
Operation and split confirmation - Individual capacities
Hi Experts, appreciate if you could please clear some stuff here for me..
I have a requirement to work with operation splits. Just to keep it simple, I will take a easy example
Lets say I have an operation 0010 and I created just 1 split for this because I just have one individual capacity.
operation 0010 - start date dec 1 and end date dec 2
capacity requirements generated = 48 hrs
I created a split
split 1 - start date dec 3
capacity requirements = 48 hrs
if I dispatch operation 0010, it consumes 48 hrs of the capacity from dec 1 to dec 2
If I dispatch split 1, it consumes 48 hrs of the capacity from dec 3 to dec 4
but my real capacity is just 48 hrs, in the above example I am filling up 2 * 48 hrs which is incorrect, because for other production order, the capacity will be shown as overload..
so where am I am wrong conceptually?
Planned Orders requirement date
Hello,
For a given requirement planned orders are created in MRP, these planned orders are then converted to production orders (in case of in-house procurement).
The finished material has a lot size key WB (weekly lot size). For example for a requirement of 50 pces with maximum lot size of 40, MRP generates 2 planned orders with 10 & 40 pces. The smaller quantity is always planned at first.
My question is, is there any possibility (setting) to plan the biggest (bigger) quantity at first?
Thanks in advance

Assign material to work order or work center
Hi all,
Could anybody please suggest how to assign material to work center or work order.
Thanks in advance.
MRP and ATP
In MD62 header screen we are selecting "w/o MRP" check box for entered forecast. So MRP doesn't consider forecast for planning. In this case FERT material is make-to-stock type. So if there is stock system confirms to the order else it create planned order in MRP.
Now per business if customer order is not within forecast (Example - Forecast is 10K for Jan-2016 and customer order is 15K then system shouldn't confirms it.
If customer order is part of forecast then it should check HALB stock. If HALB has enough stock then confirm otherwise not.
To me it doesn't make sense but just want to understand if anyone else has faced same kind of question.
Reply appreciated.

Subcontracting WIP (Intermidiate Material)...
Hi,
My Production Order has a routing with 3 operation in which Operation 0020 is with Control Key PP02 and a got a PR for subcontracting this operation.
In ME21N for this PR Acc. Assign is "F" & Item Cat is "L" is maintained.
when i try to save the PO got an ERROR message "ME154 - Not Possible to determine any Component".
Since this is intermidate material we will not have any component to be assigned for this PO.
From SCN i got a suggestion to change this error msg to warning.
I approached ABAPer they said as "this is called by Std functional Module and it can't be changed here and if possible you change via SPRO".
In OMCQ i could not find this error msg in list.
What is the solution...
Thanks With Regards,

Spare Sales order stealing stock from a Released production order
Hi Gurus,
This is not a new problem. I read the below link only a hundred time now.
Sales order stealing components from Production order
Business scenario-
Top Assembly material - XYZ (Let's say Desktop PC), Proc type - E, Plng Strat - 40 (regular MTS scenario)
Sub Assembly material - ABC (Let's say Monitor), Proc type - F, Plng Strat - blank. But we sell this part sometimes (Let's say - customer wants an additional monitor).
Roy is a shop supervisor working on a $1 million Sales order for Top assembly XYZ which is already late and customer is screaming.
He released the production order with no missing parts, printed and fretting to finish this order.
After couple of hours of setup & machine prep - Roy went to pick up the parts and to his surprise material ABC is not available.
Tina is at shipping department working on a $1000 Sales order that arrive today. System said 'sure you can ship it 3 days in advance'. So created a delivery and shipped it to the customer.
Now, Roy ran TCode: MB52 and found out that Tina just shipped his component ABC.
SAP gave the part ABC to a $1000 sales order and business lost sales on a $1 million order.
Please find the attachment for config screen shots TCode: OPJJ
