ASCP Yield and Resource Lead Times
Hi,
I am working on Advanced supply Chain Planning on R12. Both ERP Source and Planning are on different instances. We are also using Oracle Shop Floor Management. In the Network Routings we have included a lead time resources at step 10, 20, 30. The resources are as follows:
These resources are defined as 'Machine'
Resource for operation 10: ASSY-LT, 112 hours, Schedule 'yes'
Resource for operation 20: TEST-LT, 64 hours, Schedule 'yes'
Resource for operation 30: PACK-LT, 48 hours, Schedule 'yes'
We also have only one shift with 8 hours. The resources are not available for 24 hours.
We also have yield at each of the above operations.
Lead time rollup calculates 28 days for the item correctly.
We are encountering a problem with ASCP Plan. The start dates and yield calculations using constrained plan with Enforce Demand Due Dates constraint seems problematic. If we check 'Calculate Resource Requiremnents' option, the plan calculates yield but the lead time gets reduecd by one third and start and completion dates for a planned order (and ATP etc.) are not accurate.
If we uncheck 'Calculate Resource Requiremnents'option in the plan, lead times are accurate but plan does not calculate yield.
We are not sure what is causing the problem.
Does anybody know what options or profiles control this behaviour?
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Vijay
Hi Vijay,
important for your lead time calculation is the setup of the calendar and shifts and what shifts are assigned to the resource.
You say you do not have enabled the 'Available 24h' option. We are also using leadtime resources in certain cases, for example LT for Assembly. But in these cases we enable the 24H option. Next to this we set the Resource capacity to 'unlimited' by setting units to a very high number (1000 etc.) on resource level, to prevent that the system gets into capacity conflicts here.
And the yield calculation indeed should be quite independent of the leadtime resource.
best regards,
David.

Reg: lot size and replenishment lead time
1. please explain about lot size and replenishment lead time.
2. please also explain about consumption based planing and in steps explain how to perform manual and automatic reorder point(transc code please)You use the lot-sizing procedure to determine how the system is to calculate the reorder quantity in the planning run.
A lot size defining the lot-sizing procedure is assigned to every material master record applicable to materials planning.
The lot size is defined in Customizing by the combination of the lot-sizing procedure and the lot-sizing indicator.
Three procedures for lot sizing are available:
o static lot-sizing procedures
o period lot-sizing procedures
o optimizing lot-sizing procedures
You use the lot-size indicator to define the procedure.
The following parameters are also available for controlling the lot-sizing procedure:
o Short-term and long-term lot size
You can split the lot-sizing procedure into a short-term and a long-term period. This means that you can select one lot-sizing procedure in the near future and a different one in the distant future.
You define the periods in the section of the screen entitled "End of the short-term period/start of the long-term period".
The valid from date of the long-term lot size area is defined via:
- a periodicity
- a number of periods
The beginning of the long-term period is calculated by taking today's date and adding the number of periods in the future; the long-term planning period then starts on the next complete period.
Note
For materials that are planned using the short and long-term lot size,
it is recommended that you define a maximum MRP period. Defining the
MRP period has the effect that materials after a certain period are
included in planning even if no changes relevant to the planning run
have occurred. This avoids a situation where order proposals created
with the long-term lot size move into the short-term period because no
changes relevant to MRP have occurred for the material.
You define the maximum MRP period in the step, "Define maximum MRP
period". A material that is planned on a regular basis should also be
provided with an MRP type that contains the indicator for regular MRP.
o Scheduling indicator
For period lot sizes, you can use the indicator for scheduling to
determine whether the availability date;
o is to be set to the first requirements date in the period
o or is to be set to the beginning of the period
o is to be set to the end of the period
o or whether the period start represents the beginning of the planned
order and the period end represents the availability date (repetitive
manufacturing)
Interpretation of the delivery times
For the lot-sizing procedure, you can also define whether the period
start is to be interpreted as the delivery date or as the availability
date using the indicator, "interpretation of the calendar times".
NOTE
The indicators, Scheduling and Interpr.deliv.times are mutually
exclusive.
Indicator for the splitting quota
For the quota arrangements, you can determine whether the requirements
quantities are to be distributed to several items, that is, whether
they are to be split. With the splitting quota arrangement,
requirement quantities are not simply allocated to the smallest quota
rating. Instead, they are distributed among various sources using the
following formula:
Quantity for source of supply X = Quota of source X * reqmts quantity
Sum of all quotas
Overlapping indicator
The overlapping indicator along with the cycle time in the material
master record are used to split the planned orders into several
partial quantities whereby the in-house production time overlaps by
the cycle time.
Lot-sizing procedure for make-to-order production
In make-to-order production, you can use the indicator, Lot size for
make-to-order production to determine whether,
the order quantity is to be calculated using the exact lot size
the order quantity is to be calculated using the exact lot size and
the system is also to take the rounding quantity or the minimum and
maximum lot size into account
the order quantity is to be calculated using the lot-sizing procedure
defined for the short-term area
Maximum stock level variant
The system only displays the Maximum stock level variant field in the
lot-sizing procedure, Replenishing to maximum stock level. The
indicator only has an effect in connection with reorder point planning
taking external requirements into account and in connection with
material requirements planning and controls how the system calculates
lot sizes. -
Target and Actual Lead time in MCP1 report
Dear Experts,
In MCP1 report, what is Target Lead Time and Actual Lead Time. How it is calculated?
Thanks in advance for your valuable replies.
Regards,
JejeshHi,
Target lead time
On the operation level, it is the time period between the scheduled
input date at the work center (target input) and the latest scheduled
finish of the operation.
The target input date is calculated through the scheduled execution
finish of the previous operation.
On the order level it is the time period between the scheduled start and
the scheduled finish.
and
Actual lead time
At operation level, the time between the input date at the work center
and the completion confirmation date (the total from queue time,
execution time and move time).
When calculating, the input date is determined via the completion
confirmation date of the preceding operation. The process-dependent
wait time of the preceeding operation is subtracted.
At order level, the time between the reported start date and the finish
date (the total from execution times and transit times of the operations
as well as the order floats before and after production).

Batch and replenishment lead time
Hi,
I read the following statement in SAP help portal and am confused.
Please help explain with an example.
The replenishment lead time should not be considered in the dynamic availability check for batches, since batches are not reproducible
Question: Why not? basically not understand above statement.
thanks
tuffSince a batch is created on a given date at a given time, and it has specific charactreristics and values, you cannot make anymore of that particular batch. The only available qty of a specific batch is what you have available in actual inventory. Therefor no replenishment lead time is to be considered because you can't replenish a batch.
You can use replenishment lead time in say ATP because that will tell you how long it takes to make a batch of material that meets the general spec of the material.
When a material is not batch managed you can use replenishment lead time in the availability check if you want since you can make more material to meet the customers requirement, (i.e. the general material spec).

ASCP Taking Lead time to buy Item from Item Level and not from ASL
Hi All.
We have a buy Item Which is used at multiple Organization now we have defined processing Lead time for this Item at Item Level and ASL level (Global) However for different organization Like ABC and XYZ we have same supplier and Supplier Site for this item,
Below is the details of Item
Item's Processing Lead Time at Item Level
Org - ABC - 35
Org - XYZ - 15
Item's Processing Lead Time at ASL Level
Org - ABC - 10
Org - XYZ - 5
Now when we run ASCP plan for org XYZ and check for exception, Item's Lead time is coming from Item Level (15) not from ASL Level (Does this is expected behavior from Oracle?)
Regards.Hi Abhishek,
I tested one more time with the same scenario, this time ASCP is considering Processing lead time form ASL only however it is considering processing lead time for another organization (When I am running ASCP plan for Org XYZ ASCP is considering Processing lead time for ABC).
Does it is due to same supplier site for both the organization?
Also it has an active sourcing rule for the same supplier

Difference between Req with insufficient lead time and lead time const
Hi ,
1) Can anyone explain the difference between Requirement with insufficient lead time and Requirement lead time constraint exception messages. Both seems to be similar for me with the compressed time.Also at what situations these exceptions are generated.
2) what is minimum lead time required ,actual lead time and its calculation.
Thanks...Check out

Planning time fence vs total lead time
Hi Gurus,
we have a scenario like the below in the unconstrained plan. Trying to understand various dates on the PWB. could you please explain.
1. Item is a Make item and it's planning time fence attribute is set as Total Lead time.
2. Processing lead time of the item is 25 and fixed lead time is 2
3. ASCP is suggesting a planned order on PTF date which is exactly 25 days from now.
4. But the suggested start date of the order is only 2 days less than the suggested due date. This is the point we are not able to understand. We have set the processing lead time as 25 so, isn't the planned order not supposed to have the start date as today?
Thanks
MaheshDear,
Please refer this link,
[Planning time Fence|Planning time fence]
For sales order will convert to a specific production order use CO08 here define order type as ZP04.
OPKP ( Production Scheduling Profile) whether ZP04 is assigned under Order Type or not.If not maintain the same and then assign the same Production Scheduling Profile in Material Master in Work Scheduling view.
Also in In OPPQ or OPPR you have to define order type as ZP04 under conversation indicator use when in MRP run MD50.
Please try and come back

5. What are the differences between MD02 & MD04?
6. How do you get to the following screen, since I canu2019t get here from MD02 or MD04 (missing buttons and Replenishment lead time information):
http://i34.tinypic.com/9hl9hz.jpg
Please help. This is very important.
Thanks,
LauraHi Laura,
The RLT can be set in the Masters Materials.MMR and Also in the Documnet Type Configuration.
But as per SAP standard Procedure the Prority will be the document type.
That means the RLT given in the Order document will overseed the RLT given in the MMR.
Go to material master and select MRP3 view. There see what is maintained for "Strategy group". Now go to OVZG, select this Requirement Class and tick the field "Rq" against this.
Now go to OVZH, select your Requirement Type and ensure that the above Requirement Class is assigned to your Requirement Type.
Now create a sale order and check in MD04.
Hope ethis helps u..

Different Lead times for supplier in MRP calculation
Dear All,
We have different suppliers for a material. Different suppliers have different lead times and Min.lot size. Our requirement is when we run MRP system should suggest Pld.Order quantity for the supplier and also take lead time accordingly. I have done splits for suppliers by using Quata arrangement but system is only taking planned delivery time from material master record.
I also defined info records for the vendor and define lead time but still system is taking Pld delivery time from materials master.
Please help
Majid Ali khan.Hi,
Go to OPPQ, enter your plant then click on External Procurement, there tick the check box Scheduling: Info Rec / Agreement.
This will ensure that the PDT is read from info-record if it exists.
Hope it clarifies.

Hi gurus,
I'm after some suggestions as to how to configure the following scenario in our make to stock PP-PI environment.
Our process orders have a standard production rate for production of a batch of pieces. I.e. 600 pc per hour. The pieces are recieved into QI stock and then samples are sent to the lab. The testing lead time is usually 24 hours but for every 10th batch the samples are sent off site and the lead time changes to 2 weeks. We need to make sure that we schedule the start of the planned/process order to take into account the different post production testing lead time.
Thanks,
RosHi,
In Planned Order and production order, there is facility to change Floats in Schedule Margin Key manually. Even u can chage SMK maually.
so Make 2 SMKs and use according to the purpose.

Impact of not defining Processing Lead time at ASL
Hi All,
We have a scenario where we have defined Global ASLs for different Orgs with Same supplier site due to this ASCP is considering incorrect Lead time,
So as to get the correct Lead time we are planning to remove Processing Lead time from ASL so that ASCP will consider correct Lead time from Item level,
I wanted to know is there any other impact of disabling Processing lead time at ASL Level.

hi, we are having different times for shipping lead time, customes lead time, delivery lead time etc. how to map these type of lead time for materials to plan properly. as i know we have only pland delivery time, gr processing time,in-house prod time, pr processing time in mat masters.pls advise how tomap above said lead times for roh materials?
Shipping, delivery and customer lead times are not maintained in PP master data.
Check with your MM/SD Concerned guys to check where they are maintained.
