Difference between snp planned order and pp/ds planned order

Hi to all,
can any one please explain the difference between snp planned order and pp/ds planned order. I am relatively new to this area

The primary differences are as below.
1. The master data for SNP Planned Order is SNP PPM/PDS where the minimum duration for an operation is a day. So it is used for rough cut capacity planning.
The master data for PPDS Planned Order is a PPDS PPM/PDS where operations are down to minute and second level. Moreover sequence dependent operation planning is possible in PPDS Planned Orders. It is for detailed capacity planning.
2. SNP Planned Orders are created in SNP while PPDS Planned Orders are created in PPDS or when transferred from ERP to APO.
3. SNP Planned Order need to be converted to a PPDS Planned Order before it can be used in the Execution System (ERP) for further processing - like conversion to Production Order. Moreover the category types of the orders are different in APO (EE for SNP and AI for PPDS).
Hope this helps.

Difference between SNP heuristics,Optimizer and CTM

Dear Friends,
can any one explain me what are the basic difference in SNP planning methods
1) SNP heuristics
2)Optimzer
3)CTM
when should we use these method in SNP , is all the methods are used in SNP impelemtation ?
just give me some idea about it
Thanks & Regards
Raj

Hi Rajkumar,
                  Please find the difference among three
Comparison of the Planning Methods
you use optimization-based planning or CTM planning if one of the following conditions applies to you:
·        Your business environment is subject to strict constraints (for example, you must take into account production capacities, transportation capacities, storage capacities, and/or handling capacities)
·        You have alternative production locations and sources of supply (locations, production process models, and external procurement relationships)
·        You can decide between early production and late production
·        You share resources, meaning that multiple products are produced simultaneously on the one resource
We recommend that you use heuristic-based planning or CTM planning if any of the following conditions apply:
·        You wish to plan on an infinite basis (meaning that you do not wish to consider capacities) for the medium to long-term horizon (heuristic).
·        You wish to take into account predefined quota arrangements; for sources of supply, for instance (heuristic or CTM).
·        You wish to plan or fulfill demands on the basis of priorities (CTM).
Optimization-Based Planning :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm2007/helpdata/en/09/707b37db6bcd66e10000009b38f889/content.htm
The SNP optimizer offers cost-based planning. This means that it searches through all feasible plans in an attempt to find the most cost-effective (in terms of total costs). Total costs refers to the following:
·        Production, procurement, storage, and transportation costs
·        Costs for increasing the production capacity, storage capacity, transportation capacity, and handling capacity
·        Costs for violating (falling below) the safety stock level
·        Costs for late delivery
·        Stockout costs
Heuristic-Based Planning
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm2007/helpdata/en/a1/b60b4b2fc211d3b6270000e82de178/content.htm
The heuristic is used as part of a repair-based planning process consisting of the heuristic, capacity leveling, and deployment. The heuristic run processes each planning location sequentially and determines sourcing requirements. The heuristic processing groups all demands for a given product at a location into one demand for the bucket. The heuristic run determines valid sources of supply and corresponding quantity based on pre-defined percentages for each source of supply (quota arrangements), or procurement priorities for transportation lanes and production process models (PPMs) or production data structures (PDS). The demands are then passed through the supply chain to calculate a plan. However, this plan is not necessarily feasible. The planner can then use capacity leveling to adjust the plan and formulate a feasible plan.
Capable-to-Match (CTM)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm2007/helpdata/en/c4/986c39b768ca2fe10000000a114084/frameset.htm
With this function, you can execute a multi-level, finite planning of the demands in your supply chain. Unlike the Supply Network Planning (SNP) optimizer that executes cost-based planning, CTM planning uses a heuristic procedure. In other words, CTM does not optimize the costs. Instead, you can use priorities, for example, to influence the sequence of demands and the selection of the procurement alternatives. CTM planning does not consider the individual production and distribution levels one after the other, such as the classic MRP run, but considers them at the same time. This guarantees that CTM planning generates a plan that can be executed on schedule.
Hope these details will resolve your queries

Difference between LIKP-VBTYP 'Returns' and 'Returns delivery for order'

Hi...I have tried researching this myself, but still can't seem to get a good answer. In the LIKP table, there is a VBTYP of 'H' for returns and 'T' for returns on delivery order. I am trying to understand the difference between the two...how could you have a return with it NOT being on a delivered order? Is there something basic I am missing? Any and all help extremely apprecated.

Hi,
I fully agree with the input given by Mr G Lakshmipathi.
VBTYP as field description implies, it just says about the SD document category , but applicable to all documents such as order(includes outling agreements, inquiry,quotation as well) , delivery , billing.
These values are inbuilt. wrt: document behaviour we use this doc category.
You can even observe, doc category: K & O -
K = Credit memo request which applicables only in VA01
O = Credit memo applicables only in VF01.
if you try to execute the table LIKP ( from SE16) with VBTYP=H, you will not get any doc's
I hope it adds info.

Difference between Profoma Invoice F5 and F8

Dear Gurus,
Can any one explain me the difference between Profoma Invoice F5 and F8 apart from order relevant and delivery relevant profoma Invoice. Thanks in advance.
Regds
Jeevagan

Hi
As far as i know
F5 is an Order related Proforma Invoice and F8 is delivery related. Apart from this the copy controls will be maintained from Order to billing for F5.
Similarly the copy controls will be maintained from Delivery to billing for F8 Proforma.
Also for F5 you can create the billing doc after creating the sales order itself.
for F8 Proforma invoice you have to create a sales order and delivery then only you can create a F8 Proforma.

Difference between Stock Transfer Horizon and Planning Time Fence

Hi Experts,
Could you plz help to explain the difference between stock transfer horizon and planinng time fence?
Appreciated your professional input to address my confusion.

Hi Gavin,
The stock transfer horizon is used in SNP planning, it is the time period within which SNP does not create any stock transfer requisitions.
The planning time fence is used by PPDS planning. It is the time period within which the PPDS planning does not create any orders. The orders lying within this period are considered to be firmed by the PPDS planning.
Functionally, the stock transfer horizon/ production horizon in SNP are analogous to the planning time fence in PPDS, which provide the system ability to keep the plan firm/unchanged within this period.
Hope this helps!

Difference between SNP Heuristics and PP/DS Heuristics

Dear Friends,
I have a basic question regarding Heuristics , is SNP Heuristics and PP/DS Heuristics are same
if not what is the key difference between them
i am very clear about PP/DS heuristics but not sure how heuristics is used for planning in SNP , i am able to read sap help , but could not able to get clear answer
Please help
Thanks & Regards
Raj

Hi Raj,
Heuristics is the simple algorithm which can be attached to any working
module to perform our business requirements.
PPDS Heuristics is used to create procurement proposals for uncovered product requirements
and to carry out planning tasks for products or orders.
This will be used during Production planning run and in interactive planning.
whereas
SNP heuristic is used during capacity levelling and deployment. The SNP Heuristic performs
requirements planning through the entire supply chain network to determine how to satisfy
the customer and/or consumer demand.
SNP heuristic, based on a repair-based planning approach, efficiently plans complex distribution
networks in multi-site production environments.

Difference between SNP PDS and PPDS PDS

HI Experts.
Can you tell the major differences between SNP PDS and PPDS PDS.
Thanks
Raja kiran R

Hi Raja,
Unlike PPDS planning (time-continuous planning), the least time bucket in SNP planning (bucket oriented planning) is a day, not seconds. Which is why the duration of individual activities in SNP PDS are planned in days only. Scheduling in SNP is based on the fixed duration of an activity and not based on order quantity or capacity load. If a plan contains 3 activities each with fixed duration of 1 day, then the SNP planned order will have duration of 3 days.
On the other hand in PPDS, the duration of an acitivity is calculated based on the resource load that generates the order quanitity, which means larger the qty to be produced, the longer the duration of the activity.
Hope this helps!

Umesh

Cost difference between PM report MCI8 and IW38 orders cost

Hi Experts!
I have an issue of cost difference between Plant Maintenance total actual cost of orders and Cost analysis report.
Short Text
Cost difference between PM report MCI8 and IW38 orders cost
Long Text
Applied SAP notes 180047 and 112841 for the following error:
Cost is not displaying in MCI8 for every 3 months intervals.
Now this problem has been resolved but got an another error like cost
difference between MCI8 report and IW38 order costs.
Note applied method:-
1). Configured FYV as Z1 with Period update for info structures S61 to
S65, S70, S114 to S116.
2). Regenerate order cost in Tcode OLI5.
3). PMIS: Statistical setup of info structures T.Code u2013 OLPM
For Info Structures which is changed in the configuration SO61-SO65,
SO70, S114-S116.
4). Copy info structures Version &( to Active version 000 T.Code u2013 OLIX,
Select Copy version
For all info Structure SO61-SO65, SO70, S114-S116.
*Steps for Reconstruction*
New another error like cost difference between MCI8 report and IW38
order costs.
Step 1. Transaction- MCI8, Order type - CORR, Period -01.2009 to
12.2009 and execute
Step 2. Drilldown the corrective maintenance order costs into period
wise.
Step 3. Transaction- IW38, Order type Corr, Period -01.2009 to 12.2009,
Currency - EUR and execute
Cost differences: E.g. Example A)
                               MCI8                                 IW38
Total costs             8.041,69                           5.544,99
of WOs               18                                     18
So far my view is that, regardless of the selection criteria or the
output layout, predominantly the costs are different.
I would expect that they are equal. And what the right result are,..u2026Iu2019m
not sure.
Regards,
Santhamoorthy

Hello,
Sometimes this difference comes because of the selection period which we are choosing.
Try to run IW38 once with the help of Basic start and basic finish dates of the order.
And after that with the help of the period with the same dates range.
You will get the difference also.
the reason is that whenever any Posting is done in the previous month PM order the system changes the basic start date and when you select the current period and execute IW38 it shows the whole cost incurred on the order including all previous cost.
But in MCI8 it does not happen because MCI8 is run through LIS structures. And in this report only the current month cost will be shown by the system.
I hope you got the idea about differences.

Difference between SAP/APO/DP and the SAP/CRM solution for forecasting

Hi,
Can you please help me identifying the main differences between SAP/APO/DP and the SAP/CRM solution for forecasting? Advantages and disadvantages?
Thanks a lot

Hi LCD777,
Forecasting at DP & CRM are altogether at different entities. CRM involves webbased data transfer mechanism tool whereas DP is database/livecache driven tool.
In CRM, you dont get optimised solution of forecasting out of it whereas in DP you can get as much as
optimised solution & flexibility as per your requirements.
DP is majorly a forecasting tool where in huge statistical method functionalities are embedded in
whereas CRM is majorly a transactional tool wherein it involves gathering of forecast data and executing it.
Typically, CRM will be integrated with DP containing GATP environment & ECC so that DP will plan for forecast data, ECC system drives sales order data & GATP calls for availability check and finally
the forecast execution& transactions will be controlled by CRM

Difference between BSI 8.0 and 8.0G

Hello All
Can someone tell me the Difference between BSI 8.0 and 8.0G?
Thanks

Charlene :
Below is the cut and paste message from BSI on the reason of BSI 80g to be used on first payroll on 2008. In short, this version contains certain critical tax change/calculation not in lower version of BSI 80 (e.g. e and f). If you already upgraded to BSI 80, then this is just a cyclic update (not as bad as from 70 to 80) plus tubs up to 68 (to include PA tax changes).
Rgds.
Please note this is a Mandatory cyclic upgrade, due to BSI modifications to benefit plan and earning type data layout information, and to accommodate additional Pennsylvania Local Services Tax (LST) changes effective January 1, 2008. Pennsylvania Local Services Tax (LST) rates are scheduled to be published by the Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) on December 15, 2007. BSI will issue the pertinent data updates shortly thereafter. Due to the anticipated volume of changes, we expect to issue the data updates over several TUBs.
This cyclic upgrade must be installed as soon as possible, prior to running your first 2008 payroll, in order to keep your TaxFactory system current. Please check with your vendor for certification information.

Difference between SAP 4.7 and ECC 5.0

hi frnds
.what is the difference between SAP 4.7 and ECC 5.0?
regards

Hi,
Following are the basic differences as far as MM Module is concerned
Pickup list - Batch where-used list display in transaction MB56
u2022 Until release 4.7, the top-down and bottom-up analyses in the function pickup list for batch where-used list (transaction MB5C) were displayed only in the form of simple output lists. As of release 6.00 of SAP ERP Central Component, the function pickup list for batch where-used list branches to the batch where-used list itself (transaction MB56).
u2022 In addition, user can define how the data in the batch where-used list is displayed, in the initial screen.
u2022 User can use all the settings available in the batch where-used list. For example, he can expand transfer posting or display vendor batch. However, it is not possible to limit the selection to valid plants in the initial screen of the pickup list.
Usability enhancements for transaction MIGO for the posting of goods movements
u2022 For goods movements that refer to purchase orders as reference documents (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, subsequent adjustment), user can specify the ordering plant as an additional selection criterion directly next to the purchase order number and the item number.
u2022 There is a new default value: "copy account assignment fields." When entering other goods receipts, user can copy existing account assignment data from the previous item to use as the default values for a new item. To do this, user has to set the copy account assignment fields indicator in the default values.
u2022 User changes the default values in the menu path "Settings -> Default Values."
u2022 Goods movement is monitored with reference to a material document. When you enter the following goods movements, it is possible to specify a material document, such as the following, as the reference document:
Goods receipt
Goods issue
Transfer posting
Remove from storage
u2022 Note that these material documents must be documents that have arisen from a goods movement without reference ("Others") and that are not reversal documents.
New report : display list of invoice documents (MIR5)
u2022 Logistics invoice verification offers a new report display list of invoice documents (RMMR1MDI), w hich user can use to display such a list (Transaction is MIR5).
u2022 As an addition to the existing program invoice overview (transaction code MIR6), user have extended selection criteria and display options. For example, on the initial screen user can make selections by one-time customers, invoice gross amount, and entry date.
u2022 User can also show an expert mode, which enables him to select at plant level by FI document, GL A/c posting, and Material Posting.
u2022 In the output list, the report shows both posted and held invoices.
u2022 It does not show invoices without a corresponding FI document; such as invoices planned for verification in the background or which the software has already verified as containing errors.
Requirement prioritizations in materials management
u2022 With Requirement Prioritization functionality user can assign requirement urgency at item level in purchasing and reservation documents.
u2022 The software determines the relevant requirement priority (overall priority) of a material requisition from the combination of requirement urgency group and organizational priority.
Mass maintenance of outline agreements
The following two transactions available:
u2022 Mass maintenance for contracts: transaction code MEMASSCONTRACT
u2022 Mass maintenance for scheduling agreements: transaction code MEMASSSA
Commitment plan for purchase contracts
u2022 With the function of the commitment plan for purchase contracts, it is possible to pre plan value consumption for a purchase contract.
u2022 To this end, a commitment plan is generated for each document item of the relevant contract.
u2022 This commitment plan itself can have any number of items.
u2022 User can define a value and a validity date for each commitment plan item.
u2022 This enables user to pre plan different values for different periods of time.
u2022 The software generates an earmarked fund document for a defined commitment plan item.
u2022 This earmarked funds document can in turn contain several different items with different account assignments.
u2022 The software adopts these account assignments from the item account assignments of the commitment plan.
u2022 If a purchase requisition or purchase order references this contract, the earmarked funds document is copied into the purchase order, and the account assignment is adopted from that document.
u2022 Account assignment to a different account assignment object is then no longer allowed.
Availability check in "Enjoy purchase order and requisition"
u2022 Display and checking of availability are invokable separately in the "Enjoy purchase order and requisition" function, in line with the software behavior on the sales side.
u2022 User invoke the display and checking of availability in the "Enjoy purchase order" function (transaction code ME21N) and the "Enjoy purchase requisition" function (transaction code ME51N) as follows:
To display the availability overview, choose the menu path "Environment -> Availability." - To check availability, choose the "Check Availability" icon.
Until this release, if user carried out the availability check for an item of a stock transport order, the software adopted confirmations as per the desired date/time only.
u2022 Two settings are possible with availability check:
Confirmation as per desired date/time (this is the standard setting and corresponds to previous software behavior)
Delivery proposal - Full confirmation
External services: putting service items in the purchase order on hold (changed)
User can put purchase orders with service items on hold if these items do not contain any errors. Purchase orders with service items can also be put on hold if errors occur only at header level or as a result of the availability check.
Customizing transactions OX18 replaced by view
The assigned customizing transactions have been replaced by the following view in the following implementation guide activity in customizing for the enterprise structure: Assign plant to company code: transaction OX18 replaced by view V_T001K_Assign. One will find this activity in the implementation guide under the menu path "Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Logistics General -> Assign Plant to Company Code."
Goods receipt: new movement types in inventory management
The following new movement types are available in inventory management:
107: Goods receipt to valuated goods receipt blocked stock
109: Goods receipt from valuated goods receipt blocked stock
Prepayment of invoices
This functionality is characterized as follows:
u2022 User can trigger prepayment of vendor invoices in logistics invoice verification.
u2022 User use the prepayment function for vendors with whom organisation has a good, long-standing relationship.
u2022 The function enables payment soon after issue of the invoice and full exploitation of the date of required payment and existing cash discounts, by posting the vendor liabilities, taxes, and cash discounts in financial accounting in advance.
u2022 The software executes the payment of the invoice regardless of the relevant goods receipt and the outcome of the invoice verification check.
u2022 Most logistics invoice verification standard functions are not affected by the prepayment function.
u2022 When the software posts invoices, it continues to execute the standard checks.
u2022 If the software has already posted the prepayment document, user can make only restricted changes to the header fields of the invoice.
u2022 To ensure adequate and orderly financial accounting postings, a prepayment clearing account has been added to SAP ERP Central Component.
u2022 Upon prepayment, the software debits this account and then settles the account again after executing the check.
Purchasing accounting information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse
u2022 With the transfer of the purchasing account information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse component (whose functionality is now part of SAP Net Weaver), it is now possible to maintain Info Cubes, reports, and queries that can determine how and where the costs from purchasing documents have been assigned and controlled.
u2022 As part of the software, a new data source (2LIS_02_ACC) has been created and the purchasing extraction process extended to cover the account information for purchasing orders, schedule agreements, and contracts.
Automatic settlement of planned delivery costs with evaluated receipt settlement (MRDC)
u2022 A new report (RMMR1MDC), available within the logistics invoice verification, can be used to automatically settle planned delivery costs.
u2022 To invoke the report, from the SAP easy access screen, choose the menu path "Logistics -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Automatic Settlement -> Automatic Delivery Cost Settlement" (transaction code MRDC).
u2022 Functionality for report RMMR1MRS is enhanced.
u2022 User can use the report RMMR1MRS, "Evaluated receipt settlement with logistics invoice verification (LIV)" (transaction code MRRL), to settle planned delivery costs in addition to goods and service items within logistics invoice verification.
u2022 To do so, set the relevant indicator on the initial screen of the report.
Parking service items
It is now possible to put service orders without errors or with commitment errors on hold.
Report MB5B : Stock on Posting Date
u2022 This Report is available with u201CNon-Hierarchyu201D display option which provides details of Opening, Receipt, Issue and Closing balances of Stock with quantity and value both for a given period.
u2022 This functionality is not available in Release 4.7.
Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations
u2022 Function of stock transport orders between storage locations is available from ECC 6.0 onwards.
u2022 As a result of which user can input issuing storage location with supplying plant.
u2022 Facility of using different delivery types for different issuing storage locations is available.
u2022 Shipping Point data can also be determined based on the issuing storage location
