ARUN In SAP AFS

Hi All,
What is Alocation run SAP AFS .. how to configure the ARUN .. Is it mandatory in MTO Scenario
Regards/smith

Hello,
For MTO scenario, it is ARun is not needed. Only in case of Make to Stock scenario, we would require ARUN to allocate available stocks to the requirements in an optimum manner.. Please search in this forum about ARUN and how to configure the same. Please go thru help.sap.com which has detail explanation for ARUN.
thanks

SAP AFS Complete Cycle

*will anyone provide SAP Std Business scenarios for SAP AFS Module with T-Codes and complete cycle of Sales process in AFS (Order to Cash).

Hi,
Please refer to the link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_afs50/helpdata/en/b2/53ae56cda511d2aca20000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
It will help you to learn more about SAP.
AFS Process will be as follows:
1. Sale Order Creation : TCode :VA01
    At the time of sale order creation - ATP will allocate the stock to the sale order temporarily.
    (In the transaction - /AFS/MD04 - after sale order creation - the stock will be temporarily assigned)
2. ARun : TCode : J3AT
    Actual assignment of Stocks to the requirement takes place by using ARun.
    (After ARun - in the sale order - Allocation Status will be changed to Fully allocated)
    (In /AFS/MD04 - the status will be changed to F - Fixed assignment)
3. Delivery Creation: VL01N and do PGI. - Create delivery.
4. Billing - VF01.
Thanks,

Sap afs sd

Scenario is as below:
Our client is in apparels and footwears and have there overseas operation also:
I am doing configuration with the logic that as follows:
Client is doing exports as according to the requirements from the
overseas customers and also there are domestic customers.
Now I am utilising the functionalities like season, material grids and
category structure as below.
SEASON: OFF SEASON,ON SEASON
MATERIAL GRID: NL,XL,XXL (NL NORMAL,,XL EXTRA LARGE,XXL : DOUBLE EXTRA LG)
CATEGORY STRUCTURE : REQUIREMENT CATEGORIES,STOCK CATEGORIES
Product A off season (export-sale) material grids whichever is
applicable or demanded by client customers. As product is, off season
I am using requirement categories and for allocation run i am using
coverage stategy with characteristics as QUALITY,SEASON AND PRODUCT.
I am using Make to order strategy for off season material which would
be export sales ,and make to stock strategy for on season materials
which would be domestic sales.
(path:img-logistic general-afs categories-define coverage strategy)
Now the problems I am facing is system is giving me message "invalid
input" after maintaining coverage strategy parameters ie: such like
category value,allocation run requirements etc.
Now if the above scenario perhaps clear to you,Could you please let me
know where i am going against system(sap afs sd).
Also if possible let me know certain config documents pertaining to
order scheduling,allocation run,delivery and billing
Thanks And Regards

Kapil,
goto define coverage stratergy ->Select your stratergy ->double click on coverage stratergy on left side it will display category structure ->again select the same and double click on Arun/MRP/... option on left side there you should mention Stock category and MRP-Mod tab.
"The MRP module controls the assignment of the requirement categories to the stock categories. Module M1 uses a strategy where all batches of stock, purchase requisitions and purchase orders which are available on the requested delivery date (sales order) and assigned to the stock category, will be used to satisfy the requirement"
and i would suggest you to check each and every tab in structure and stratergy both you might have missed something.
try and revert.
hope its helpful to you.

Ashwini

How to handle "bulk orders" in SAP AFS ?

Hi experts,
do some of you know how to manage in SAP AFS the so-called bulk orders also known as "promises to buy" ?
I heard about the chance to use a SD contract: if this is the case which type of contract I am supposed to use ? How this contract is treated by the ARUN ? Is it MRP relevant ?
Thanks in advance.
Karlinga.

Don't believe this is possible without a manual process linked to it.
The only solution I see for now is that you first only release the TR that need to go to your follow-up system, import them, then perform the manual actions and then release the subsequent TRs, etc...
Same issue is popping-up when using XI Transports, as each TR has a Change List that needs to be activated. If two TRs within the same maintenance cycle contain the same object, the second TR will fail because the change list for that object is not yet activated. A manual process can solve the issue. At our project, we introduced a new user status for this.
Best regards,
Roel

Will MIM (Merchandize and inventory management) work with SAP AFS / SAP POS

We are implementing SAP AFS ERP at the head office and SAP POS at the retail stores.
We want to implement the MIM module for inventory management at retail store level. Does MIM work in conjunction with SAP AFS. A consultant was suggesting that MIM works only with SAP Retail and no other vertical SAP solution.
Can someone please clarify?
Regards
paddy

MIM is linked to IS Retail, not to AFS.
Nevertheless, you can always link and AFS and a Retail system. SAP provides a very convincing ALE scheme for this.

MM configurations for SAP AFS System

Hi,
        I'm working in MM configuration for SAP AFS production system, After uploading AFS Materials successfully and also created Purchase order to make a stock for that material, but PO created successfully but not able to do Goods receipts for created PO.
       Errors : Purchase order xxxxx has no items,
Once created sales order for the same material again we got the error while GR but error is different.
      GR is not possible for this PO number.
But material type is ROH , and its external procurement only.
Please let me know when we will get this type of errors.
Thanks and regards
Nisar.

Hi Nasir;
Some possible causes are;
1.     Defining inbound delivery (Or kind of a confirmation) in the PO LI level and not maintaining the document subsequently
2.     Not releasing the PO before the GRN
3.     Creating the PO with a material with Grids (AFS Basic Data Screen) and not maintaining the grid value at item detail level of the PO

Hi,
Your configuration will only be applicable for the documents you are creating in future. It will not be applicable for the documents you have created in the past.
If any such open sales orders exist with third party I.C., then just delete them or put rejection codes, and then start creating new orders for them
If invoiced cases are there, you really have to analyse the implications and then take the corrective measures.

SAP AFS Upgrade from version 5.0 to 6.4

Hi Experts,
I wanted to know if someone here was familiar with the SAP AFS upgrade from 5.0 to 6.4. I wanted to know how exactly they improved the areas listed below. (obtained from SAP Course). Your help would be greatly appreciated
http://www.sap.com/services/education/catalog/globaltabbedcourse.epx?context=%5b%5b|wdedaf||1||de|%5d%5d|
1) Improvements in the areas of planned independent requirements, seasonal concept, value add services, Combined order, productionu2013 warehouse interface
2) Production Planning Basic Data - Enhancements of AFS Bill of Material (AFS BOM), SKU Group Based Routing
3) Manufacturing Execution u2013 Collective Planned Order Conversion, Combined Order Confirmations
4) Batch Determination/Classification for SAP Apparel and Footwear
5) Handling Unit Management for AFS
Thanks,

Hi Ronny,
Thanks for the reply!
These patches you speak of, is it for the types of issues I mentioned in my first post or do they cover the entire AFS functionality? I assume it still requires complex configurations but are there a lot of complications with going from AFS 5.0 to 6.4, compared to a new AFS 6.4 implementation? Specifically with the grids, categories and BOMs?
/Cheers

SAP AFS-Retail Financial Accounting Integration

Dear all,
we have a scenario where the same company that manufactures garments, sells them through its own stores. The company is planning to implement SAP AFS for the manufacturing part, and SAP Retail for the retail operation. Both operations are part of the same financial unit, meaning financial accounting needs to be managed integrated for both operations; the same company is used for manufacturing and for retail (only one company code needs to be created).
Any experience with this scenario? is it possible to centralize financial accounting in one of the systems?
Regards,
Andres G.

Dear Andres,
There is an integration between AFS and IS-Retail. Please check this with your implementation partner. They will be able to help you with this.
