Allocated quota concept in CTM Planning

Hi,
Is it possible to work with allocated quota concept in CTM planning considering so far ordered quantity from the time of inception of quota master
In other words, want to know is it possible to have a similar behaviour of R/3 allocated quota concept in CTM Planning
With Regards,
VBS

Hi Saravanan
This is not used by CTM
Please check the Note I released for you:1659757
Thanks and Regards

  • Exclusion of Sales Orders from CTM Planning

    Gurus,
    Without customizing, is there a way to exclude selective sales orders, say by certain delivery priority number, from CTM planning? Is there any standard configuration setting that SAP APO offers for this?
    I want to exclude the SOs with delivery priority no. X from being identified and planned by CTM.
    Appreciate a quick response on this.
    Thanks,
    Chandra

    Hi Chandra,
    1) If the sales orders that you want exclude are falling under certain
    fixed time period, then you can restrict selecting those orders
    using transaction /SAPAPO/CTMORDSEL - Order Selection
    and in the selection tab, you can filter those under radio
    button "fixed time period" and select the ATP categories
    2) In material master, if you provide very low priority and also if
    you maintain time based priority in SNP 2 tab, till that period with
    that low priority, the system will consider that item for lowest
    priority during planning
    Regards

    OptimizeServer says  GOOD BYE
    Please help me to resolve this issue.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Khadar

    Hi Khadar,
    1) The information you have provided is the CTM optimiser log.
    Run the job in background and in  sm37 and click on job log &
    analyse the exact error happened.  In case if you are not able
    to do, please provide the error log.
    2) Check the livecache is stable in its operations when the job
    runs (check with basis team)
    3) Run consistency check for master data before CTM run
    4) Check for any struck queues and clear those and rerun
    5) If you feel more inconsistencies in system, run livecache
    consistency and rerun CTM run
    Regards
    R. Senthil Mareeswaran.

  • Consolidation of Planned orders after CTM planning run

    Hi everyone,
    We use CTM planning engine and create planned orders for the unfulfilled demand. Since Demand is coming from various locations multiple planned orders are created at the supply location. But the requirement is that all these planned orders need to be consolidated to 1 planned order.
    How can we acheive this without disturbing the existing pegging relationships?
    For example:
    Current scenario:
    3 planned orders at location X based on the demand from locations A, B and C. Then a pegging relationship exists (Purchase Requistions) between A and X; B and X; C and X.
    Requirement:
    Above 3 planned orders need to be consolidated to 1 Planned order and still the pegging relationship to supply the demand locations should exist.
    Please let me know if anyone has similar business scenario and has working solution approach
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can increase the lot size to club your demand requirements.  You can also try using period type lotsize to club daily, weekly, monthly requirements.
    Regards
    R. Senthil Mareeswaran.

  • Not clear with the Authorization concept for Marketing Plan

    Hi All,
    I am new to CRM and was going through some of the prescribed document for CRM marketing
    when i encounter with the authorization concept in marketing plan,for example how
    can i restrict a user with a campaign manager role from changing marketing plan.please
    provide the step by step procedure.
    Regards,
    Sanju

    Hi Sanju
    User with a campaign manager role can be restricted for changing marketing plan using authorization group.
    We define authorization groups for use in the Marketing Planner. Authorization groups can be maintained at both marketing plan level and campaign or trade promotion level. Authorization groups enable us to control which users are authorized to change which of these two types of marketing project. We could, for example, define one authorization group to be assigned to a marketing plan, then define further authorization groups to be assigned to the different campaigns within the marketing plan. In the Marketing Planne.
    Follow below steps
    1. Define authorization group using following IMG Path
    Customer Relationship Management / Marketing / General Settings / Define Authorization Group.
    2. In authorization object CRM_CPGAGR of the role Campaign manager maiantian activity 01, 02, 03 ,06 (this will allow user to create, change, display and delete)
    3. IMG defined authorization group ex: ABC can be seen under the tabstrip Basic Data of marketing plan.
    4. Now user have to choose the Authorization group ABC from the drop down in Basic tab to create a marketing plan. User will get the change access for all the marketing plan which have the authorization object ABC.
    Hope this will help...

  • CTM planning for process industry

    Hi,
    We are taking CTM planning run in a process industry scenario where we are having continuous processing. But when we do CTM planning CTM creates PP/DS planned order to meet the delivery date of orders and for some orders their are unscheduled gaps between operation due to non availability of next resource.
    Is it possible to create orders in CTM without any unscheduled gaps between the operations as is the case in case of orders created using PP/DS?
    Regards,

    Hi kiran Ghule,
    With the functions of the Quality Management (QM) module, you can implement it.
    The QM application component supports tasks associated with quality planning, quality inspection and quality control. In addition, it controls the creation of quality certificates you can do this
    Explore your self in this module if any problem then come back.

  • CTM Planning run Error

    Hello,

    Does anyone encountered this error ?
    Thanks in advance.

  • CTM planning generates excess stock

    Hello experts ,
    We are using CTM planning and we have given build up safety stock and the lot sizing procedure in product master is by period (W). Now CTM planning is generating excess stock for this material . Why is it ?? Can anyone help please

    It is not clear in your Q whether the excess stock created while running CTM is lesser  or greater in magnitude than the Lot Size. I would not be too surprised if the excess stock is lesser than Lot Size. Not that lot sizing restrictions only apply on supply side and hence there could be a situation where supplies are created in excess. 
    One other situation where this can happen is when there are unpegged fixed supply orders in the system. In that scenario the order may not be sensed as a supply order by CTM. You can verify that by looking at Pegging Overview related transaction in PPDS. Or do a supply simulation in CTM profile. It can clearly let you know the supply orders considered.
    Excess stock can also be generated if there are Quantity Based Safety Stock requirements in the system.
    To isolate the problem, I would also try out scenarios with standard lot size instead of periodic just to make sure that there is nothing funny happening with the latter setting.

  • Quota Arrangement in MRP Planning

    Dear All,
    I am facing problem in foll Scenario:
    I am trying to use Quota arrangement in MRP Planning.
    I have maintained foll values:
    Quota Usage in Material Master.
    Quota for the material against 3 vendors in Percentages.
    I have not maintained any Lot size procedures cause we are not using any batch management or Lot sizing in our company.
    MRP Type is reorder type planning.
    PIR is maintained for all the 3 vendors against the material being used.
    No source List is maintained.
    But during MRP Run only 1 PR is getting generated against a single Vendor - which is appearing 1st in the Quota arrangement.
    Kindly please suggest me why is this happening... and whether there is some note of configuration missing.
    Regards,
    Jyotsna Loomba

    Hi,
    It is easier to use an example.
    Lets say we have two vendors that we want equally used and they have been set up in a quota arrangement for a long time. The quota base qty will show how many have been ordered from each. So lets say that at the moment we have the two vendors both set up with a quota of 1 (to keep them equal) and the quota base qty is the same for each (lets say 10,000).
    We now want to add a third vendor and they too should get an equal share of the orders. If we just add them the system will see that vendors A and B have each had orders for 10,000 and the new vendor has had 0 and so the system will give every order to the new vendor until they too have a total of 10,000.
    By manually entering 10,000 to the quota base qty of the new vendor we are tricking the system into thinking that the new vendor has had the same number of orders as the existing vendors and so from now onwards they WILL all get an equal share.
    I hope this helps with the clarification of the use of quota base qty?
    As for the data you have just provided, the system would give the next few orders to Vendor V2.
    the reason is that the other two vendors get a quota rate of 1 each and V2 has a quota rate of 8 and so V2 should get 8 times the qty of V1 and V3. The quota base qty of 80 against V2 and 20 against each of V1 and V3 means that V2 will get the next orders until their qty reaches 160 (at the proportion of 1, 8, 1).
    So if V1 is getting all of the orders at the moment then there is something wrong with the set up of the quota arrangement. This could only really happen if you have set some maximumquantities or lot sizes etc. If you have not done this then I would check that V2 and V3 have valid info records etc.

  • CTM planning in Planning segment

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to do multi-level CTM planning in the planning segment? 2nd level products in BOM are make2stock.
    Appreciate your reply

    Edited by: MadhuNambu on Apr 29, 2011 1:27 AM

    Hi,
    Check whether the supply category defined is included in the search strategy..
    If this is not defined then the  system cannot consume the surplus receipts created during CTM planning.
    Thanks,

  • Exclude sales orders based on sales order type from CTM planning run

    Dear people,
    We have sales orders in R/3 with custom sales order types, like ZE01, ZE02 etc.
    These sales orders are CIFed to APO and all sales orders have ATP category BM. We use CTM and we want to exclude sales order with sales order type ZE01, is this possible?
    Which enhancement could be used to exclude sales orders with selection on sales order type?
    Edited by: Peter237 on Jan 19, 2012 12:35 PM

    Dear,
    Check the requirement type of your sales order line item in VA02 procurement tab it should be Reqmt type of customer reqmt   KSL
    Also check the strategy assign in material master and MRP group OPPR and then check the setting of strategy 10 in OPPS there should be
    Customer Requirement planning
    Reqmt type of customer reqmt   KSL  Sale frm stck w/o ind.req.red.
    Requirements class  030  Sale from stock
    Allocation indicat.     No consumption with customer requirements
    No MRP   :-               1 Requirement not planned, but display.

  • Creation of SNP planned order in Monthly Bucket though CTM plan

    Hi,
    Can anyone advise how to aggregate the SNP planned order generated after CTM run in Monthly bucket.
    Can it be done through customizing?
    Regards.
    Punit

    system switches over to external procurement in place of in house production only when you use optimizer.
    Heuristic will do this only if there is a SNP PPM/PDS and the resource calendar prevents timely production.

  • CTM planning related conceptual questions

    In an attempt to understand the CTM functionality for master planning I have the following  questions
    1.In real implementation where is the safety stock planning done by the standard methods and the where are the service levels considered.
    2.when is the lot for lot/fixed lot/reorder point and by periods?
    3.when is the planning mode strategy like the replan all orders or orders with fix pegging used. is it based on the replenishment lead times of the products?
    4.when is the delete only the un firmed orders used?
    I understand that it is industry specific but an explanation with reference to the industry would be helpful. idea is to understand the business logic behind this configuration.

    typically service level based Safety Stock planning would be used in situations where replenishment leadtimes are variables. there could be SLAs with the supplier as well. standard Safety stock planning would be used under relatively static conditions of leadtimes. One would use days' of cover in situation where net requirements could be varying a lot with time. One could also use quantity based static Safety stock quantity, in situations where the product has high volume net requirements. One could use time-phased quantity safety stock/days' of supply where conditions are dynamic throughout the year in terms of demand and supply.
    Regenerative planning is to do planning from scratch by getting rid of all unconfirmed and confirmed planned orders/requisitions. Non regenrative planning would be doing incremental supply planning based on increased/decreased demand.
    Lot for lot will be used when the planned order quantities do not have any size restrictions. so they may go from a certain min lot size to a max lot size. So there is just one planned order to meet the demand. In fixed lot size, there are possibilities of multiple planned orders of same size to meet the demand. Reorder point method will mean that planned orders get created when stock and scheduled receipts fall short of an expected level of projected stock.

  • CTM Planning: How to Handle Min Lot Size Daily Resource Capacity?

    Hello,
    I am facing a situation where the Min Lot Size values require more than a days capacity of the Resource.
    Finite Planning CTM is skipping all demands.
    Example:
    Daily Resource Availability = 24 Hrs,
    Capacity Consumption per PPM = 1000 Kgs / 1 Hour.
    Min Lot Size =  50,000 Kgs
    Capacity requirement for the 50,000 Kgs = 50 Hrs
    Is there a way CTM can plan this?
    Thanks,
    Ran

    Yes the time buckets in CTM profile has nothing to do with this limitation...
    Nor does the infinite/finite setting.
    Basically its a limitation of how the resources are stored in livecache.
    You can not exceed the capacity for which the resource is stored...
    The only workaround is to define the resourcde in weekly time buckets by manually defining a capacity profile.
    I don't like this as every order will take a week...
    I am not aware of any other workaround...
    I have seen other clients take out the minimum lot size for SNP, then when cif transfer the order back to R/3, it is combined to 1 large order...
