Production Order operation performed time auto capturing

$
0
0

Dear Sir,

 

As an initiative to have real time shop floor operation monitoring , We are looking for a suitable solution which can work under following scenario .

 

a) Before start of shift , operators are assigned to production order and it's operation number

b) Operators are given a smart card . Before start of operation , operator swipe his id card and operation start time gets recorded into SAP system against that operator .

At the end of shift or on completion of operation , operator again swipe the id card and his ending time gets recorded into SAP system .

 

We do not want any hassle like logon into SAP GUI by the operator for this activity .  All this should take place automatically in background if at all required , during card swiping and after this should get logged off automatically .

 

I request experts to kindly guide as how can this objective be achieved please .

 

 

With Regards

How can I manage batck key in process order component?

$

Hi,

 

when I create a process order I have a material code that has no value in Batch Key field. So when I release for automatic batch determination, the system doesn't check the batch for that component. Instead, if I select the record and execute batch determination with button, I find the batch.

 

I've checked the material master data and the component is correctly batch managed.

 

What should I check?

 

Thanks

Zreport based on MD05

$

Dear Experts,

 

One of our client wants a z report in line with md05 collective access screen. The input screen/selection screen should contain the following

 

Plant

MRP Controller

vendor(range of vendors)

.

.

.

 

Output screen should contain the following

 

Vendor x         MRP Controller     Plant . . . . . . . . . . . . .  . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  . . . . .

 

Material1

material2

.

.

.

Vendor y

Material 3

Material 4

.

.

.

.

 

With reference to the above, how should I frame the logic and give it to the ABAPer

Our client is maintaining source list, so the logic could be passing Plant and vendor into EORD table and getting the materials against vendor.

And this materials will be passed to MARC table and we will get the MRP Controller from here. By comparing this MRP contoller and the MRP

Controller in the input/selection screen we can filter the material and can be displayed in output. But how to display the vendor in the output?

 

Since there is no link between MRP controller and Vendor. How can we display vendor in output?

 

Request you to suggest me the solution/Logic for the same

 

Thanks & Regards

Designing Capacity for a month !

Hi :

 

QUESTION 1:

 

In OP4A - Define Shift Sequence via Grouping (Work Break Sch., Shift definition & Shift Sequence).

 

I understood how the functionality works for 7 days @ 3 Shifts.

 

But how this is transformed to a Months (30 Days).

 

QUESTION 2:

 

What is the purpose of "DEFINE PERIOD PATTERN KEY" via OP11. Where we use this key.

 

QUESTION 3:


In OP4A we already defined grouping which contains shift start/end time and we assign the same in OP36 - Default Capacity. Then why we need to specify the start/end/break length again in OP36 under Standard available capacity.


Thanks in Advance,

Deciding on Alternate material functionality

$
0
0

Hi Experts

 

 

I am working on a scenario wherein I am confused with using alternate or substitute fucntionality for Materials in SAP ECC.

 

Scenario:

The alternate materials are created for material in ECC.For eg

Primary material - MAT. A

                  1st Alternate material for MAT A = MAT B

                  2nd Alternate material for MAT A = MAT C

 

During MRP run, the alternate material is chosen by MRP controller if the stock for primary material is insufficient. Then the controller assigns(manually) this alternate material for the orders wherein the primary material MAT A is used.

Now this material is pushed to MES (a SAP MES software) and there in too the plant planner or manager can change the assignment of alternate material. For eg...Can change MAT B with another alternate MAT C. This means BOM undergoes a revision.

 

My question is how can it be managed in ECC? Since the master data is governed by ECC, how does the change happening in MES can be traced in ECC? Is this functionality called alternate material or substitute material in ECC?

 

Help resolve this understanding/solution. Thanks.

SAP PP Routing change suggestion

$
0
0

All,

 

We have a need to setup user defined fields which will have different values for every routing. But then realized the business is using reference operation set to make changes to the routing. One reference operation set will contain a bunch of routing, and a change was done to the reference operation set all the routing within the set gets updates automatically. However my need now is to touch every single routing to make the change because the change I want to make is to the user defined fields and that value is specific to the individual routing itself and not for the group.

 

is there a way to deactivate the reference operation set and make individual changes ? is it possible and the correct solution ?

 

Any other suggestion will help. thanks in advance

Dismantling/Disassembly Process Discrete Manufacturing

$
0
0

Hello,

 

Is there any standard SAP process to dis mantle a finished discrete product ?

 

Example: Finished Good = Raw Material Component 1 + Raw Material Component 2

 

When the production order for Finished Good is confirmed and delivered the raw material stock reduces and finished good stock increases.

 

What should be done to dismantle the Finished good ?

 

One way is to reverse the delivery and cancel the confirmations, and set deletion flag on the previous production order. However then the cost associated with dis mantling is not captured in the system. Also the cost incurred in assembling is lost, leading to incorrect financial postings.

 

What is the way to breakdown the finished good into its components ?

 

I read about creating a re work order, and entering the finished good quantity as negative and raw material quantity as positive using CO07, however this is a manual process.

 

Any help/inputs would be highly appreciated.

 

Best Regards,

Ameya B.


Double time booking of labor hours

$
0
0

Hello,

 

 

 

Production order operations, are having labor hours maintained against activity type and cost center maintained in the work center and standard hours maintained in the routing.

 

 

 

During order operation confirmation actual labor hours are entered by the workers.

 

 

 

Also we have a 40 hour work week, and workers also fill in their time sheets, using CAT2 against the same labor work center and the production order.

 

 

This creates double booking of labor hours.

 

 

 

How can this be avoided ? Is it possible that hours booked by the labor in CO11N are somehow transferred and displayed in CAT2 against the day they were booked ?

 

 

Current work around we have is to not enter labor hours while confirming using CO11N.

 

 

What is the best possible way to handle this

 

Any inputs by experts would be highly appreciated.

 

Best Regards,

Ameya B.

Update purchase requisition quantity for external operation

$

Hi experts,

 

Is there any way that system will update purchase requisition quantity according to the confirmation of last operation?

 

 

For example

 

If we have an production order with 300 pieces has two operations (1) Internal operation  (2) external operation

 

If first operation confirmation is 200 or 400, could the purchase requisition bring out the quantity with 200 or 400.

 

I always get the purchase requisition quantity equal to order quantity which is not reasonable.

Appropriate Planning Time Fences for Multi-level Assemblies

$
0
0

Seeking input on setting Planning Time Fences for complex assemblies with multiple sellable levels. For example...

 

Product Structure

Lowest level: 1A1

Mid-level: 1A1 goes into 2A2, 2B2, and 2C2

Top level: 2A2 goes into 3A3 and 3B3

 

Routing Time

Lowest level: 1A1 takes 5 days to make

Mid-level: 2A2 takes 9 days to make (5 + 4), 2B2 takes 10 days to make (5 + 5), and 2C2 makes 11 days to make (5 + 6)

Top level: 3A3 takes 20 days to make (5 + 4 + 11), 3B3 takes 25 days to make (5 + 4 + 16)

 

What is the suggested planning time fence strategy for a problem like this? Would you stack up all the lower levels so that in the problem above, 1A1 would be 5 days, 2A2 would be 9, 3A3 would be 20, etc? Or, would you take the highest time from each level group so that in the problem above, 2A2 is 11, 3A3 would be 25, etc?

 

Thanks.

User Exit in MD01 SAP PP

$

Dear All,


In current system, we’ve done user exit in MD01 transaction for MRP run at following levels:

  1. 1.     MRP Controller
  2. 2.     MRP Type
  3. 3.     Planning Strategy

 

Pls note that MRP run with these user exits plans the material at single-item, single-level & creates dependent requirements on raw material & components.

 

Now the requirement is whether we can enable single-item, multi-level MRP run for this option??

 

Pls requesting your valuable suggestions

 

Rgds,

 

V Kumar
