Scheduling the MRP run

I have configured in the system for a Re-order point planning MRP run. But I have to execute the MRP run manually through MD03 transaction. Is it possible to schedule it ,eans system will execute MRP run automatically at a scheduled day of a month?
Please advice.
Thanks

hi,
I don't see any direct solution for it...
but indirectly,
Try to remove the line item ie. source from the source ...and try again...
its not possible to do via changing the dates...nor any source doc...system still create the procurment...
also try via changing the MRP indicator in the source list to NO MRP...
let me know updates..

Scheduling agreement MRP run

Hi All,
We use Scheduling agreements for purchasing spare parts. The nightly MRP run checks the warehouse requirements and creates delivery schedule line to scheduling agreement.
Now the MRP run creates unnecessary delivery schedule lines to scheduling agreement if the earlier created delivery schedule line's delivery date has been changed manually.
Today the MRP run finds requirement for article XYZ and creates the delivery schedule line, where delivery date is 2.9.2008 (determined from articles basic data).
The Vendor confirms the delivery date as 3.10.2008 and the purchaser changes manually (transaction ME38) the delivery date to delivery schedule line accordingly and prints the created message.
The next MRP run creates new delivery schedule line, where delivery date is again 2.9.2008.
After that there are two open delivery schedule lines for article XYZ with delivery dates 3.10.2008 and 2.9.2008.
Why the MRP run does not notice the existing delivery schedule line with the new delivery date 3.10.2008?

Scheduling in MRP Run MD02

dear all,
i still confuse for using scheduling in MRP run MD02,
what is the use of using both scheduling type "1" and type "2"?
because if i run the MRP using scheduling type 2, after i generate the planned order, then i can see the capacity planning evaluation,
but not if i run scheduling type 1
if i run the scheduling type 1, how can i analyze the capacity planning?
until now, i always run the scheduling type 2, because i think it is more useful to run scheduling type 2,
so what is the plus and the minus using scheduling type 1 or type 2?
best regards,
MARUFAT

Hi,
In simple words:
The main difference between scheduling type 1 (Basic date scheduling) & Scheduling type 2 (Lead time scheduling & Capacity requirements) is from which records MRP reads the values.
Basic dates is more like a rough scheduling where the values are read from the material master & the exact operation times are not considered or capacity requirements generated.
Lead time scheduling is more precise meaning for each in-house produced material it reads the routing & checks the time maintained for each operation, it then calculates the exact times for each operation based on the working days, shift timings, breaks & also generates capacity requirements.
Now what is the criteria to select... it depends on the business requirement. But the data maintenance for Scheduling type 2 is higher as compared to Scheduling type 1.
What is the benefit for going for Scheduling type 2.... well it gives you a clear picture on your production planning process & how much capacity is required, whether you have the requisite capacity etc etc.
Basic date scheduling is preferred when you do not want such fine control on your production planning process.
For more info refer to SAP help, it should make it more clear.

Not to reschedule in the MRP run.

Hello!
I have product   P000GR00000000 consisting a
component say B000GR00000000 .
               If i create production order of P000GR00000000 for DATED 30.09.2007 of 100 EA.then order will reserved -100EA for B000GR00000000 & when i take MRP run it will generare plan order of 100 EA for B000GR00000000.Similarly if i create production order for P000GR00000000 for dated 30.10.2007 of 200EA.Then MRP run will generate 200EA plan order for B000GR00000000.
      Now, i create production order for P000GR00000000 of 300 EA for dated 30.11.2007 & meanwhile the production order of P000GR00000000 DATED 30.09.2007 is technically completed then order reserved for B000GR00000000 of -100EA will be cancelled.If i take MRP run now ,then order reserved of -300 EA for B000GR00000000 will rescheduled,that i want to restrict.
   Is there any solution Not to reschedule in the MRP run if order is TECO.
please give the solution.

mangesh

Hi Mangesh
You can define Rescheduling at plant level or MRP group level using OPPQ/ OPPR or OMDW. if you define at plant level then no need to create in MRP group and assign to material
secodly if you want to avaoid the Reschedule Exceptions then
You can define tolerance values in additon to Resheduling horizon. for the creation of exception messages, in Customizing. These values define a time period in which no exception message is to be created, despite the fact that a rescheduling proposal may exist.
If you don't want reschedule check for production orders then you can remove the flag against production orders in the firmed elements.
if you TECO the order Normally MRP should not consider while planning!
please check onesecond and come back
But Teco will allow you for posting (GR/GI)
hope this helps

Viewing the mrp run output based on mrp groups

Hi, please advise how to view the mrp run result based on mrp groups? also advise how to run mrp on the basis of mrp groups?
thanks.

Hi,
Can you use MRP Controller instead MRP Group. Because you have option to view MRP result by MRP Controller in MD05.
And you can execute MRP based on MRP Contoller by using user exit M61X0001 in MD01.

Exclude storage locations from the MRP run

Hi all,
Is it possible to exclude stock of specific storage location from the MRP run?
Thanks for your help
Thomas

Hi,
2 things,
1. In OMIR for the storage location set that this location is excluded from MRP run (if am right the value to be maintained is 1)
2. In MM02 go to MRP-4 view of the material master, specify plant & the storage location which you want to exclude & in the field SLoc MRP indicator specify that this is excluded for MRP run (if am right the indicator is 1).
The step 1 ensures that all materials which are extended to this storage location will by default have the value 1. And step 2 ensures the materials already having this storage location view are excluded from MRP run.

Vivek

Dates for Backwards scheduling when MRP Run

Hello experts,
When MRP run, which calendar does SAP take to schedule planned orders? where could I indicate it?
Thanks in advance.
Laura

Thank you all,
I have checked the calendar that is assigned to my plant, and, as you have said, is the one that is taking into consideration to determine the dates.
In my case, Saturdays and Sundays are not workdays. As a result, every purchase requisition has its release date assigned to a workday. What I have noticed is that although Saturdays and Sundays are not work days, planned delivery time and In-house production time is taking them into consideration to calculate the release date. What I mean is that those two fields are defined as calendar days. Is that correct??
Thanks again.

MD01 - in what order does the MRP run pick its materials to plan

Hello,
I would like to know how the MRP global run (MD01or inthe background) picks the sequence of its materials?
Is it by order of material number? first number first run? or is there anyother logic?
Thanks for any reply
Aart

Dear Aart,
As well said by Dogboy49,the system plans the materials according to the low level code sequence.
Materials may appear in several products and in several production levels of a product. The low-level code represents the
lowest level of usage of a material within all product structures.
It determines the sequence in which the materials are planned. The system plans materials with the low-level code 0 first and
then those with 1 and so on. The lower the low-level code is, the higher the number assigned to the level.

How can I include the minimum stock of storage location in the mrp run.

Hi all,
I have in plant 1030 storage location 1001 and 1006.
MRP1 Lot Size = EX
           MRP type = PD
           Reorder Point = 5
MRP2 Safety Stock = 5
MRP4 for 1001 is not filled
MRP4 for 1006 Sloc MRP Ind = 2
                         Reorder point = 2
                         Replenishment qty = 3
If no stock and I run the mrp I get
a PurRqs for 8 with a automatic MtlRes of 3 going to storage loc 1006
If I create a reservation in 1006 for 10 units and run the MRP again
a PurRqs for 15 with a MtlRes of 10 going to storage loc 1006.
I want the result to be PurRqs for 18 with a MtlRes of 13 going to storage loc 1006.
10 for the reservation and 3 to fill storage loc 1006 with the replenishment qty.
How can I acheive this?
Best Regards!
Curtis

Hello Curtins
Please observe what is stated on question 6 of FAQ note 550954, regarding storage locations planned separately:
6. Question:
    A storage location should be planned separately. Is it possible to
    consider external requirements?
    Answer:
    No. The storage location MRP is a very simple reorder point planning
    procedure, during which only reorder point and replenishment
    quantity are defined. More complex settings can be implemented via
    storage location MRP areas.
Therefore, I'd suggest you to use MRP areas to map this scenario.

Change the MRP run fro Reorder Point to Forecast Based.

Dear Experts
My client is a battery manufacturing company, its Semi Finished product is Make-to-Stock and Finished Product is Make-to-Order. Initially the MRP was configured as reorder based and in Material master it was set as VM (Automatic reorder point plng ). But now we need to change the MRP form reorder point to Forecast Based. The rolling forecast of the coming 3 three months is given in Planned Independent requirement (MD61) as version u201800u2019 - REQUIREMENTS PLAN.
We have changed the MRP procedure in Material Master form VM to VV Forecast-based planning of the finished product but unable to get any result means no Automatic PR is getting generated, the we have changed all the materialsu2019 MRP procedure of that Particular BOM to have the required MRP and Automatic PR raise but still no expected result is coming.
I would request you to provide your expert opinion to execute the Forecast Based MRP, what else should I do achieve the Linking between the Rolling Forecast and MRP instead of Reorder point. Should I have to make changes in Material Master (Only on finished product, In house developed/manufactured Product, Raw material etc), any configuration change in MPR and PR . Looking forward for your specialist advice.
Regards
Sony

I have provided the demand in MD61 and make stock level of the material in such a way that it should raise the PR for MRP run but it is not generating any PR. have checked that if I put value in the forecast tab of the material master manually then it is raising the PR but I need the system to pick the value form the demand that I provided in MD61. Is there any configuration related issue to get the values form the demand and generate PR accordingly. Please guide
Should I have to provide 'VV' at the first level of the Material at its master data or at each component of the BOM irrespective of
the components for Semi-Finished (In house production), Raw materials (Procure from the supplier). Please suggest...

MRP run: how to check the target quantity of Schedule Aggreement

Hello Gurus,
We have a requirement when running MRP, creating schedule lines automatically in Schedule Aggreement.
Currently, the MRP did NOT check the target quantity of Schedule Aggreement. But we need to check this, to make sure the schedule line quantity will not exceed the target quantity.
I check some note and the solution is use quota arrangement. but quota can be limit the maximum quantity per vendor, not per S.A.
Is there any way to fullfill this requirement?
Configuration?
Or any BAID/enhancement can be implemented?
Or where to do the modification?
Please advise, Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Charlie

Hi Charlie
This is the standard behavior: MRP does not check the target quantity.
If you want to develop your own code to do that, the only option that I see is MD_MODIFY_SOURCE. This BAdI allows you to define your own logic for the source determination during the MRP run.
Take a look on the following document for the most common BAdIs on MRP:

MRP Run error " Schedule Lines not generating properly"

Hi Folks,
I am facing a typical issue with MRP Run.
Every time when I am running the MRP for a particular material I have made settings such that Schedule lines to be generated by maintaining the Source list and MRP relevancy as 2 in source list. Also I have fixed the vendor. Now my problem is I am getting Schedule lines for first run and Combination of Purchase requests and Schedule lines or only PRs for the next MRP run.. This is keep on repeating in such as way that the planning is shifting as said above for subsequent MRP Run.
Note that the initial settings during MD02 remain same for all run.
I want only schedule lines to be generated but not PR.
Pls advise and provide input where the wrong might be.
Quick responce would be appreciated.
Regards
Shash

Dear shash,
Check with What are the MRP control Parameters values which you are using for the MRP run.
In MD02, For Deleivery schedules run with value 3 - That's - Schedule lines.
The other options are 1 No schedule lines
2 Schedule lines in the opening period.
check with this & revert back.

Schedule line date changes after each MRP run

Dear Experts,
Clarification needed on how the system plans the MM schedule lines.
Setting: Start in the past not allowed.
3 days for processing of order
The issue is after each MRP run the system is moving the schedule line to the current date + 3 days for processing + the planned delivery time.
If the schedule line is not firmed, after each MRP run ( which happens everyday) the system is moving the schedule line and then giving an alert saying the " order has to be rescheduled to the previous day"
on the second day after the mrp run the system moves the schedule line again by one more day and gives the rescheduling date as " -2 days from today"
this change is happening every day after the planning run. - because of this there are really no backorders ( schedule line in the past ) in the system. we were not able to know if the vendor is actually delayed in this case.
can you kindly suggest what went wrong here ??
we are using strategy 10 for the planning of procured parts. Let me know if more info is needed.
Note: we are also using stock transfer process for some procured parts. there too the PR date gets changed after each MRP run. There there is no lead time in this case. the order is placed on the same day as the requirement as both plants are nearby. There the PR date is changing everyday to the current date.
your advice would be of great help
thanks
Nagendra Kumar

Hi Caetano,
thanks for your suggestion
Yes, we use firm zone for few of the vendors. there the system don't change the schedule lines.
Also for the stock transfer PR's there is no firm zone and the lead time is one day. in this case it changes everyday after the MRP run.
the stock transfer PR's leads to the creation of Schedule lines from the source plant. Since this PR gets changed everyday. the alerts coming out of MD07 gets changed and we really did not know if this order is delayed or not. In the source plant we use the firm zone to avoid moving the schedule line. But then the alerts are always not correct.
is there any setting which helps in not moving the PR everyday without using " start in the past"
thanks
Nagendra Kumar
