Create Control Cycle(LPK1)

Hello Experts,
Can anybody let me know Is there an Standard SAP Program to load 'Control Cycles(LPK1) into SAP?
Thanks for the help.

Hi Zaya,
If u check field 'Export Parameter' in search help, that is enough.
Basically the use of import parameter checking is that
whenever a field is selected through search help those values are copied from that screen to the search help which can be used inside search help exit.
'Export Parameter' will pass possible values from search help to the screen for selection.
So, if u do not use Search help exits inside search helps, it is enough to check only 'Export Parameter'.
Thanks.

Control Cycles in LPK1 transaction

Hi experts,
Has anyone worked on Control Cycles(LPK1) in Data Conversion?
I need a little Functional and technical overview and what needs to be taken care while loading Control Cycles?
I searched on web But couldn't find all details.
Regards,
Rahul

SAP docu can be found here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/EN/c6/f841494afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
control cycles can be created with and without material (just at plant level)
As it is a tiny little transaction, you can load it with LSMW using own recordings.

Issue in creation of control cycle

Dear Gurus,
During creation of control cycle (LPK1), the fields for source information is not appearing in my system.
I compared control cycle in a different ECC system where source information is appearing.
How can make the screen appear in my ECC system.
Please find the screenshots.
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
This thread is further to the threads in Production Planning and LE/WM Forum. I could not resolve the issue with the threads.
Hope that I will get any pointer in EWM forum.

Hello Malay,
Can first contact your ABAPer and ensure the bottom screen is not an Screen Enhancement?
If it is a some custom development, your ABAPer can help you on the logic behind it.
Else, Let us know.

Manish,
I do not understand how this going to solve the issue because why we need both KANBAN and WM control cycles for one material withdrawal for production?

KANBAN control cycle pk01 error

Hi friends,
I am using SAP 5.0 and material is WM activated, getting error while creating control cycle in PK01.
Error -: Storage bin 002 / / does not exist {Message no. PK033}
Note-:it can be solved with PKMC but in SAP 5.0 Pkmc T-code is not available.

Hi,
Check in the material master for the material, whether you have maintained any fixed bin in WM2 for the storage type 150.
Thanks,

Creation of control cycles for lean WH

Hi All,
Is it possible to create control cycles (backflush) for LWH, if so how?

HI ,
There is one more way to create control cycle.
1. PK05 - create supply area ( earlier explained the procedure)
2. PKMC - enter plant - go to change mode ( click on change icon ) - in the right hand window - you can see the create / copy icon.
3.click on create icon
4.select option - classic Kanban or event driven kanban
5.enter material/ plant/ supply area.
6.enter no of kanban / qty.
7.In replenishment strategy - select appropiate option ( in our case it is stock transfer)
8.enter - the tab will change from replenishment strategy to stock transfer.
9.enter storage location.
10.enter destination- storage type- bin
11.enter if any additional data required to enter.
12. save- control cycle will get generated.
thanks

Control cycle mass creation with staging indicator 4

Hi All,
Is there any way to create control cycles in mass for staging indicator other than 3 - rel order parts?

You can define a generic control cycle for manual staging parts and it will be valid for parts w/o control cycle. Please read SAP online help:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/c6/f841494afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
For manual staging, you can define one control cycle per production supply area for all materials. This control cycle is then valid for all the materials in the production supply area, for which you have not defined an individual control cycle.
If you want other mass cration / change tool, you have to develop it on your own.

Routing and Control Cycle

hi........
Is there any link or connection between Routing and Control Cycle?...........if there is connection then what are the parameter that are interlinked?.......
thanks in advance
regards
Nilesh

It is correct that there are 2 ways of creating control cycles for materials.
One is thru Kanban way and the other is regular WM way of control cycles.Here for WM control cycles again, it is just the way of driving materials to particular supply area while in kanban, the control cycle is driven with kanban signals.
If you want to define Kanban, you need to identify first what way you would want the replenishment to occur.
There are two options, classic and even driven Kanban replenishment. In the former one, the replenishment is triggered thru kanban signal in kanban board and replenishment quantity is equal to what is mentioned in control cycle.
In a event driven kanban, replenishment is triggered the same way but the quanity of replenishment can differ.
Classic KANBAN:
Quantity of material (target quantity) that is specified for a kanban.
Event-driven KANBAN:
Proposed value for the quantity of material in a kanban that is used by the system when no order quantity is entered at a kanban signal.

BAPI /FM to create /change KANBAN control cycle

Hi
Is there any BAPI or FM to create or Change control cycle?
Thanks.

Check
BAPI - BAPI_KANBANCC_ADDEVENTDRKANBAN
Short Text
    Create Event-Driven KANBAN for Control Cycle
Functionality
    With this method you can procure a material quantity for a control cycle. To procure this material quantity one or more kanbans are created in the control cycle and set to status EMPTY.
    The essential entry parameters are:
    o   Control cycle (if the function module is called as a method for the object kanban control cycle, this parameter is not available, but given by the object.
    o   Material quantity
    Information about the status change is issued.
    COMMIT and ROLLBACK WORK: the function module does not carry out any COMMIT work. Command off. This must be ensured by the initiator after ending the function module. Each time the function module is called, a COMMIT WORK must take place. It is not permitted to call this FM several times and to post the result with a COMMIT WORK. If, during the process,
    the FM comes across an error, in some cases the command ROLLBACK WORK wil be carried out. In these cases the kanban is either set to ERROR status, or in the parameter RETURN an error message is given.
Hope this helps.

Control Cycle information missing in COR2

Hi experts !
I encountered an issue in all client about reservations update with control cycle values for alternative items.
We use alternative items in a standard manufacturing BOM. (Strategy 1; probability of usage 100 % and 0 % for the others). These alternative items are WM managed and the control cycle are properly maintained.
When we create the process order, reservation items are created for all items (even for items with a required quantity to 0 which are the ones with probability usage 0 %) in RESB.
When releasing the process order, when the system is reading the control cycl information, only the reservation items with a required quantity different from 0 are updated with the WM info : Staging ind. (BERKZ) , Warehouse No (LGNUM), Storage Type (LGTYP), Storage Bin (LGPLA)
I could not find any customizing functions to manage reservations and control cycles.
I looked for a SAP notes but could not find ant soving our issue.
Do you have any solution to our issue ?
Regards and many thanks for your help...

Dear,
Please refer the OSS Note 1136321 - COMAC: Double Transfer Requirements in WM Material Staging
Or you can raise the issue to SAP in that case.

Issue with control cycle

Hello all,
Can somebody please tell me how to find who created a particular control cycle?
Is there a way to find the id of the person who created/modified a control cycle?
If yes, please tell me.
Thanks and Regards,
Umakanth.

Hi
Use Transaction AUT10 with T-codes PK01/PK02.
Give the period for which you want to find changes.
keep the changed by field open , i.e dont put your user id there.
and execute, you will get list of all changes done through creation or chage transaction of control cycle.
check it out and revert back for further discussion.
Hope it helps you.

Control cycle for production staging SAP WM

We currently have control cycle for kanban purchase orders. Do I need to create new control cycle production staging. Actually I will be using fixed bin for production consumption. Kindly confirm whether existing control cycle of purchase order can be used.

Material Staging Indicator for Production Supply
The material staging indicator defines the method of how needed materials can be supplied for production with the assistance of the Warehouse Management system.
As with the location coordinates (warehouse number, storage type, and storage bin), the system files this indicator in the control cycle.
The following staging types are supported:
"1": Pick parts
These materials are picked according to the required quantity specified in the production order.
"2": Crate or kanban parts
These materials are always removed from the warehouse in full cases. These can be ordered, for example, as soon as a case of needed parts is emptied in production.
"3": Release order parts
Release order parts are scheduled individually and the quantities are supplied manually to replenishment storage bins based on the requirements of production orders and the stock levels in the scheduled production supply areas.
"4": Manual staging
Materials are staged manually. For example, you can transport individual components using manually created transfer orders, or you can use the bypass method to transport them directly from the goods receipt zone to production. In goods receipt posting, postings are made to the production storage bins from the control cycles.
"0": Not relevant to WM-PP
These materials are not relevant to WM staging. They cannot be requested using the WM system.

PP Kanban control cycle

Hi team,
I was referring the below statement to understand the control cycle.
The Kanban Control Cycle business object is used to control the flow of information and material between the demand source and the supply source in a pull environment. It controls the material quantities in production. It defines a loop between demand source and the supply source for recurring replenishment.
In the above statement, it is mentioned that, it is linking the demand source and supply source. In SAP, how we are linking the the demand source and supply source?
While creating the supply area in PK05, we are providing the storage location. Is this supply source or demand source?
In SAP, where we are assigning the another source (supply / demand source)?
Regards
psk

Hello Mario,
Thank you very much for your detailed explanation on storage bin and container.
1. So, if the storage location is not WM managed, there will not be any storage bin. The storage location itself will act as a storage bin. Am i right?
You said that, Containers are the physical means in which materials are kept in this process. a container usually equals a KANBAN. Normally there are at least two (but can be more) containers in a control cycle.
2. We are using pallets to replanish the supply area storage locations (production store which is near to work center). So in this example, the pallets are called as "containers". Am i right?
Consider the below example:
3. In control cycle i have maintained the number of kanban as 4. As you said above, i need to maintain 4 containers. But i have only one field to maintain the container. How to maintain 4 containers in one field?
Thank you.
