Dear
Capacity Requirement Are those Which is used For Operation And Calculate the Time with help of Dervied Formulas
for instance i take an Example To Describe so that u get clear Picture
Ex: Suppose i have machine Drilling u assume that Drilling machine as a one capacity under capacity catergory
here to operate this i need to make my machine set up first then machine time i need to arrange a labour
so total i required Setup Machine Labour so Here in sap we define a standard value key with all these combination and there we will assign formula for HOW Much to Produce so on...... and in turn it is assigned to control key to perform all the Actions.....
Scheduling : Scheduling is Nothing but to sechedule Right time at Right job This helps in shop floor to over come overload on machines.scheduling used in
scheduling for Production orders
scheduling for Planned Orders
scheduling for Plant maintainence Order
Configuration :
1. Capacity Requirenemnt ;
SPRO>>>production >>> capacity requirement >>>> Define capacity catergory
2.Capcity planner
3.Define parameters OP7B
4.Assign this to OPCM
Scehduling
1. go to OPU3

Capacity formulae and Scheduling formulae

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me the difference between the formulae given in Capacity tab and Scheduling tab of work center. If i am right the schedulling formulae is used to get the schedulle dates and time when process orders are created...Why do we give different formulae for different capacity category and where is the output of these formulae can be seen or whatare its uses...?
Regards,
Joseph.

Dear Joseph,
In my understanding while assigning the formula for capacity it should only contain the base quantity, operation quantity and the
machining time for performing an operation.So without considering the no of spilts(no of capacity) the system should calculate the
capacity required to perform an order quantity.
In the case of scheduling normally we have to assign formula that allow for operation splits,
Machine * Operation quantity / Base quantity / Operation splits,so in the case of scheduling the system should consider all the
capacity available(no of machines) and propose the timings accordingly.
Eg: For producing one product the operation time is 8 hours and there are 2 such capacity (machines) available which are running
for 8 hours a day.So available capacity = 8 + 8 hours and now producing 2 such product the capacity req = 16 hours and now
for this the system should propose that on the same day we can produce these 2 quantity considering the no of capacities = 2.
Check and revert

Dear Hemamashewararao,
Welcome to SDN !
As per rules you need to raise only one query as per one thread
Coming to your first query
As per business requirement formula will be defined
The most important difference between Capacity formula and scheduling formula
In SPRO
for scheduling formula tick mark will be marked for scheduling where as for capacity option tick mark will not ticked
For capacity formula tick mark will be marked for option capacity where as for scheduling option tick mark will not ticked
Currently i am not in front of SAP so i couldn't give you path
Good Luck !!!

Modifiying, Transporting and Scheduling Process Chain

Hello ALL,
i have to create a new process chain for a delta Load and put this process chain in a big existing Meta Chain, after i have to transport to Quality System.
if i control the difference between Dev and Quality system to have an idea i see that the Infopackages in Dev have the execution tab: Load Data Immediately without job: BI_BTCH
in Quality some Infopackages have execution tab: run successively in batch with job like this:
BI_BTCH LX6CW08S1ICM04I4O06KOPL
can you tell me please in detail how should i complete this activity:
- wich type of control should i do before creating and modifiying process chain in DEV and Quality
- how should i do to control in Quality the scheduling of a process chain
- if i modify a process chain in DEV and after i will transport in Quality what will be the affect in Scheduling, the scheduling will be the same without problem or i have to schedule again
- in generale how can i schedule a process chain, wich transaction and how in detail
Thanks a lot for your help

Hi Bilal,
1) EVENT: When you want to have a process chain 'A' to be started after completion of a process chain 'B' or any process in process chain 'B' we can use this event. These two chains can also be from different BI systems. Like Chain 'A' could be from one production system and Chain 'B' could be from different production system. As soon as the chain A finished an event will be triggered and this event will trigger the chain B. The start time of chain B might differ because it depends on the completion of chain A. To schedule a process chain using an event, Go to Tcode: RSPC look for your chain. Switch to change mode. Right click on the start variant and select maintain variant. Click on "change selections. click on "after event," give the event name in the slot and select the periodic job.
2) RUN JOB PERIODICALLY: When you want to have the chain run for more than once periodically we select this option. Suppose, chain B has to run after completion of chain A periodically we have to use this option. If you do not check this option, your chain B will run only once when the event is triggered after completion of Chain A. From the next time onwards, it not run even the event is triggered.
3) JOB: For every process when it runs a job will be created assainging it to a work process in the system. Similarly, when the chain starts a job will be created containing the log of the run. Also, in the scheduling options of a process chain, you can have your process chain started after completion of a particular job in the system (ex: an attribute change). For this, Go to Tcode: RSPC look for your chain. Switch to change mode. Right click on the start variant and select maintain variant. Click on "change selections. click on "after job" give the job name in the slot and save the settings.
4) SCHEDULING PROCESS CHAIN: Means to make settings to a process chain so that it will run on a periodic basis at a certain time. If you want to start a chain immediately, you will choose the option immediately and trigger it. It will run for only once. But, if you want to have your chain run everyday at 7:00 am in the morning, you have to schedule it using the scheduling options as below:
In Tcode: RSPC look for your chain. Switch to change mode. Right click on the start variant and select maintain variant. Click on "change selections." Click on Date/Time button. Give the start date and time in the Scheduled Start slots. (Ex: 09-04-2009, 7:00, to have the chain run at 7:00 everyday starting from tomorrow). Tick the check box Periodic job in the bottom and click on "periodic values" button and select the option as daily and save it. Then click on "Restrictions" button to specify the factory calander. The Tcode for calander is SCAL, where you can see all the factory calanders in the system and you can choose that suits your requirement. Save the changes and navigate back to process chain maintaince screen and click on "Schedule" button.
Now your chain is automated for trigger

REM Planning table - Capacity requirements and Levelling.

Hi i have few queries in REM planning table.
In REM planning table MF50 my selection is based on entire plant. Here in total capacity data tab for any particular plant it will show the list of work centers which are maintained in particular plant to know the capacity details as per our requirement.
1.When i select any WC line and click on change capacity display from CRP it is giving break up with required and available capacity hours for any particular WC available time is assume 22.5 hrs per day which is given in operating time in capacity header in WC but in MF50 it is showing 23hrs.I have defined shift sequence in OP4A and assigned in capacity header grouping which have 3 shift with 30 mins break in each shift which results in 22.5 hrs working for a day so in shift sequence and operating time it is mentioned as 22.5 hrs is the time available for day but in MF50 it is showing 23 hrs available for day?
2.What is due% in MF50 total capacity data for any work center and how required time would be calculated?
Appreciate if any one has any example.
Cheers
KK

Hi bump for any suggestions?
i have noticed one thing the time available is a round up value actual time available as per capacity header is 22.5 but in MF50 it is showing as 23..if i change to 21.5 then it is showing 22hrs available per day is this the standard behaviour?
can anyone tell me how the required time is calculated?
Cheers

STOP and SCHEDULE process chains

Hi
i have an already scheduled procces chain (a group actualy... it's a process chain with 2 processes inside) that i want to stop. How do i stop it or remove it from schedule?
then i want to schedule an other one. in this new one i want to put 2 processes inside. how do i do that?
i've serched in rspc transaction, but i'm not sure of what steps to make and i don't wwant to make any mistake
best regards
ricardo

Hi ,
Kindly Follow the below steps:-
1) Go To RSPC
2) Go to the particular Chain which you want to Deschedule
3) Click on the Start Variant of your chain and check the Menu Bar , there will be one menu as "EXECUTION"
Inside that dr will be option"REMOVE FROM SCHEDULE"
4) This will remove from Schedule.
5) For scheduling again You have to go to Start Variant again -> rt Click-> Display Variant.
6) Give the Timings when YOu want to schedule and save .After that Click on Schedule in the same menu "EXECUTION"

Capacity requirement showing up in previous month in RCCP

Hi Experts,
                 I am doing RCCP through MC88. But when i am giving the sales quantity in January and generating a synchronous production quantity, the capacity requirement and load are shown in the month of December instead of in January.
                 How can i get the requirement and load in January, please suggest.
Regards
Sm.

Hi Jiaul,
            I cannot find a provision to change the profile dynamically from MC88 screen. This is possible in my understanding in capacity levelling/planning screens like CM38/CM01, etc.
            But even in such screens the same problem remains. For example when i did LTP for this material with PIRs in Feb 2011, the capacity requirements in CM38 appeared from current period that is from 09.12.10, though my planning scenario was valid from 01.01.2011. I changed the period and evaluation period dynamically from the CM 38 screen, but that did not solve the problem as the requirement and load which was wronly showing up in Jan instead of Feb 2011 ( just as it happened in RCCP) merely vanished from the output and now i have the available capacity in Feb 2011 showing up but without any capacity requirement or load in the month.

Sm.

Capacity requirement for long term planning and make to order planning

hello,
anybody please guide me.
my client using make to order scenarion and we are doing regulaly MRP run is MD50 with refernce to sales order.
sales orders planning will follow for 2 to 3 months.
at the same time my client wants to do long term planning also. to analize the capacity.
for that he is creatind planning scenario and multi level planning with MS02 also.
But the problem is when they are checking capacity requirement in cm38 it is showing only planning scenario load only. my client wants existing load and longterm planning load also. so they can plan the planning is sutibale in existing plan.
so how can i get both plan in CM 38or is there any other T.code to get that data.
please suggest me
Thanks & Regards
Bhakta

Hi Pierre and Rajesh,
When we create the simulation version, you have the possibility to choose the short-term planning. My point of view is, you can use the LTP fonction to do your scheduling for ex the next 3 months.
I think it's what Pierre did. Am I right ?
between to scheduling scenario to deliver my customer. With the simulation mode I can do my scheduling + use the MRP simulation to check if the raw material are available or not. Then use the MD04 to do the comparaison (or MS04 to compare between 2 scenario).
But I found 2 problems :
First : I don't find the parameters to show in the graphic MFS0, the planed fix order (I can only see the process order)
Second : When my scheduling is finished, I want to update my operational planning with the simulation version. But I don't want to do article by article : when you have 400 references (raw mat, packaging, finish goods) it's impossible (same issue like Pierre)
Have you found a solution for this 2 points ?

Process Order Basic Finish Date and Scheduled Finish Date

Folks,
I have a requirement from the business to be able to update the Process Order Basic Finish Date and Scheduled Finish Date independently from each other.
In other words, update the Basic Finish Date and the Scheduled Finish Date cannot change or update the Scheduled Finish Date and the Basic Finish Date cannot change.
I believe the reason for this is to be able to use the Basic Date to maintain the ATP accurately and keep the Scheduled Date to mark when the order was originally due from the shop floor to be able to measure if orders are being completed on time or late.
I have worked in tnx OPUZ and had some success with other issues with these dates but I can't seem to make them work independently from each other.
Or does anyone have any ideas how to measure proces order performance to the production schedule?
Thank you for your help,
Greg

Rajesha, thank you for your reply but it doesn't solve my problem.
Let me restate my scenario:
I start a process order and both the basic and scheduled finish dates are the same, June 1.
At some point, shop floor tells me they will be late and cannot deliver until June 15.
I need to update a date in the system so the ATP and the MRP planning runs have correct information for promising customers, I will update the Basic Finish date with June 15.
I also need to keep the original June 1 date in order to measure the shop floor performance to the production schedule to measure how early or late the order was delivered. How can I keep the original finish date or how can I measure if a process order is early or late??
Thank you for your help,
Greg

Basic and scheduling dates & time calculation in process order creation

Hi guru's,
i have one requirement, i need to calculate and display the basic and scheduled dates & times based on the given input i.e material , plant , process order type , quantity , UOM and scheduling type ( for corresponding scheduling type user will provide either start date or finish date ) using RFC. can u plz provide any function module for this purpose or logic for calculating the same , as i am working on version 4.7ee .
Awaiting for a quick response.
Regards,
Madan

Dear Rohan,
1.Check the length of break timings defined in the resource that is assigned in the phase.
2.Check in OPUZ whether for the process order type and plant combination whether scheduling is to include the break time also
(whether the check box for scheduling with breaks) is included.
Check and revert back.

Scheduling process flows and mappings

Hello
I have created many process flows. Now i want to schedule it. I know i can use OEM, but i need to log in as DBA. i also know that you can use owb scheduler module to schedule a process flow. but i want to schedule it using sql plus. i found a link on scheduling process flow in sql plus for older versions of OWB. Can we use the same script for OWB 10.2? here is the link - http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_news/2005_7_7_Scheduling_an_OWB.htm
Please let me know how to schedule a process flow in OWB 10.2 in sql plus. It would be great if you could post the sql script required to schedule OWB 10.2 process flows.
Thank You

Hi,
the web server named by the link is down, so a general answer.
You can use the scripts sqlplus_exec_template.sql and oem_exec_template.sql from the directory <OWBHOME>/owb/rtp/sql and schedule it with cron or at or scheduler or ...

Remaining capacity requirements scheduled for operation in Planned Order

Hi all,
I'm workig with planned orders, and I need the "Remaining capacity requirements scheduled for operation" data to list it in a Z Report, but I don't know how to get it.
You can see the info in the "Detail Scheduling" of the planned order in MD13.
Anyone knows how to get the info? Any table or any FM to get it?
Points will be given for helping
Thanks in advance!

Did you ever find out where the planned order capacity information lives? I can find the production capacity information in table KBEZ, but it appears that there is no planned order info there.
Thanks,
Matthew Bruckner

Regarding workcenter capacity and scheduling

Hi Experts,
I have created a workcentre and maintained all formula's for each activity in the workcentre.Now what I want is that, while confirming the activity , If workcentre gets overloaded beyond tolerance limit then it must issue a warning message and wont allow us to confirm that much activity.
Case 2:
If capacity is overloaded then the timeframe also should mave accordingly as automatic scheduling.
your valuable suggestion would be highly appreciated
Regards
Ashutosh Saraf

Hi,
Work center capacity and activity confirmation both are different entities and this is what I guess. Please correct me if wrong.
Let me put it this way...
Work force is assigned at work center level which let you know the total capacity being maintained at referenced work center. If some one asked me about what is the capacity of work center A, then my reply is 64 hours/day (10 persons with 8 hrs each and performace 80%). Thats how we derive the capacity of WC.
Now coming to Activity confirmation: for example you have planned hours of 100 on NWA and keep confirming periodically. When you cross the limit of planned 100 hours system gives a warning that activity is already confirmed (I mean reached 100% of planned work) but still allow you confirm beyond planned hours.
In combined view of WC and NWA, system never gives any kind of warning message even if you going beyond the planned hours on NWA.
As Mahendra pointed out, capacity evaluation and levelling being done manually and there is no automated process available unless you have developed program which takes care off.
Case2: Capacitiy overloaded or underloaded, capacity levelling to be performed basing on available capacity at work center level by manually.
The time frame adjustment (I assume you are talking about automatic scheduling), if activity confirmation is less than the planned distributed value, whenever system schedules automatically and let you know ETC (Expected time of completion). for that you have to select the automatic scheduling check box at NWA.

Sudhakar

If you wish to use the cellular capabilities of a device, you will need a SIM (unless the carrier uses CDMA which doesn't use SIMs) and you will have to pay a cell carrier. No cell company provides service for free. The only way you will get free Internet is via WiFi to a free and open WiFi access point, as sometimes is offered in public buildings or by some businesses.
