ATP Check Finished Goods against Components for production planning

Hi All,
Our business has a requirement that they want finished goods to be planned based on the availability of components. Currently we have an APO solution which plans at finished goods level only so there is no need to bring components into APO. We will probably use CTM (currently using Heuristics)
We have concerns about the harm that this will do to our system performance and we really do not want to bring these components into APO. We are therefore interested if there is any way we can avoid bringing these components into APO.
In the past, there use to be a seperate ATP server from SAP where this could be done but my understanding is that this was discontinued and is no longer supporetd. Can someone advise me if there was a product that replaced this ATP Server or does anyone have any suggestions on how we can avoid bringing the components into APO. Please consider that it is not possible to limit to just critical components.
Mark

Mark,
Hmmm.. Your seem to be considering adding hardware to support ATP server, but you seem unwilling to consider adding more hardware to the current SCM solution? Doesn't make much sense to me. Like most SAP products, SCM/APO can be expanded almost infinitely, if you need performance gains. Which you don't know yet.
Anyhow, depending on your requirements, CTM is probably overkill. PPDS or SNP alone would be adequate. If enhanced availability checking is what you want, then one of the GATP solutions would work.
I guess ATP server still exists (run transaction ACBD from ECC) but I don't think I have ever seen anyone use ATP server at the same time they are using SCM. All ATP server does is move the processing load of ECC ATP check onto a distinct buffered memory area. I don't see how that will solve your problem, but I guess I don't really understand what you mean by "planned based on the availability of components." You don't need anything special to plan FGs in SCM and components in R/3, this is pretty standard.

How to execute ATP check and update schedule lines for existing sales order

Hello all,
After stock quantity has been updated, wed like to perform ATP check and update schedule lines for sales documents which have not been delivered yet.
Is BAPI_SALESDOCUMENT_CHANGE useful to do so?
If so which fields should I set X?
At the moment, I called BATCH INPUT and execute ATP check.
But I'm wondering if this is not a smart way.
Thank you
Yuko

Hi arnab
one way of achieving your requirements is
after creating the sales order you can execute the SALEs order MRP using MD50 transaction enter the order # and MRP control parameters 1,3,1,2. and execute.
Ensure the following before MRP.
1. All the master data are maintained for the schedule line creation for the components ( Source list, Scheduling agreements)
2. Material master with valid MRP data.strategy group having MTO strategy.
after sales order MRP you will get the schedule line created for the components
also MRp will create the cpacity requirements as we run the MRP with Lead time scheduling.
Hope this helps

Is ATP check possible in Service Order for Sales Item?

Hi All,
My question, is ATP check possible in Service Order for Sales Item? My requirement is that when i create a service order in the web UI with a sales item and drill down to the item level, i see the schedule lines assignment block but w/o any Confirming date, so i want to know whether the ATP check is happening or not. For example wen i create a sales order in web UI with a sales item and drill down into the item level, the schedule line AB shows me the Confirming date checking the ATP. But this is not happening in case of service order. So kindly suggest the reason and clarify my query. Thanks

Confirmation of Finish Goods Non Valuated for MTO

Hello SAPper Friends,
I was doing a Make to Order production with Strategy 20. When I was doing the confirmation with at least four operations, in the first operation was fine, movement type 261 was posted for the components and also in the last operation I have successfully confirmed the production order for the Finish Goods. However when I checked in CO03 - Display Production Order > Goto > Documented Goods Movements, the Finish Goods has a goods movement = 4 - Goods REceipt for Production, Movement Type = 101 with D/C indicator = S with the Amount in LC = 0.00.
It was only now that I have taken notice of this. How can I check cost of the production order if these is no cost provided by te confirmation? Please assist me to have this validated.
Many Thanks,
Nap

Hello Mario,
Thank you very much for your assistance. Btw, I have informed already the client of the strategy 20 that will answer their problem regarding the MTO, i was not aware of the product costing. I have checked that there is a strategy group 25 that might be resulting with a cost for the production of the Finish Goods.
I need to check on this, again.
Many Thanks,
Nap

Regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders

Hi,
I have a issue regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders.
Actually I am having a Z - Function Module in that i am passing production order number other details to
make the Goods Reversal happen.
The code for the above is as below:
 i_mvtit-material = wa_mdfa-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New
 i_mvtit-stge_loc = 'ZWIP'.
 i_mvtit-stge_type = i_resb-lgtyp. "New
 i_mvtit-batch = i_resb-charg. "New
 i_mvtit-orderid = i_resb-aufnr.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.
 i_mvtit-entry_qnt = i_resb-enmng.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = '262'.
 i_mvtit-xstob = 'X'.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = '03'.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
The Above code does the Goods Reversal but then i will update one Z Table with fields like
Production Order Number[AUFNR], Number of Reservation[RSNUM], Item Number of Reservation [RSPOS], Material Number [MATNR], Requirement Quantity [BDMNG], WBS element[PSPNR] etc. If Above BAPI runs sucessfully.
That is happening correctly.
But Then actual issue is i have do Goods Issue for those Z-Table records.
There i will give Production order Number's & Storage Location in Selection-Criteria.
Then i need to do Goods Issue for that order.
The code i had written as follows.
* POPULATE VALUES FOR BAPI CALL
 i_mvtit-material = i_zpsi7603_01-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New
 i_mvtit-stge_loc = p_sloc.
 i_mvtit-stge_type = i_resb-lgtyp. "New
 i_mvtit-batch = i_resb-charg.
 i_mvtit-orderid = i_resb-aufnr.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.
 i_mvtit-entry_qnt = i_resb-enmng.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = c_261.
 i_mvtit-mvt_ind = 'F'. "New
 i_mvtit-xstob = c_x.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = c_03.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
 EXPORTING
 wait = c_x.
 READ TABLE i_return INDEX 1.
 IF i_return-type EQ c_s.
 DELETE FROM zpsi7603_01 WHERE aufnr = i_resb-aufnr AND
 rsnum = i_resb-rsnum AND
 rspos = i_resb-rspos.
 ENDIF.
If i run above code for Goods Issue it is giving error can anybody tell me what changes i need to do to make it work.
The Error Message i am getting is as below:
Qty and / or "delivery completed" ind. or final issue ind. are missing
Error Number for the above is : 264.
Can anybody solve my issue.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Hi,
Thanks boss.
It is working now correctly.
The issue is the i_mvtit-XSTOB should be equal space in case of Goods issue while incase of Reversal it should be equal to X.
Thanks for ur efforts.
I had awarded you points.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Print layout - Goods issue & Issue for Production

I designed two print layouts separately 1 in Goods issue for Goods issue in inventory module
and 1 in Issue for production for Issue for production in production module.
If i take a print preview or print in Issue for production , it will reflects the print layout designed in Goods issue.

kavitha S

Hi Kavitha,
I think, are you duplicate the Goods issue PLD Template to Issue for Production PLD Template on Duplicate Layout Template.
Best, Try to create a New PLD from Issue for Production(System) PLD.

Taxes and duties on components for cost plan

Hi experts
I am working for below scenario:
The components those are planned must be added with applicable taxes for cost plan.
In case of imported goods, the applicable import duties need to be added to cost plan.
Similarly in case of external services, the service tax to be included.
For this purpose i wish to maintain different costing sheets (with various tax rates).
The relevant costing sheet is added in the activity/ component.
Is this OK or any other solution?
In this case, the predefined costing sheets to be used. As and when new rate comes in to picture, customizing to be done.
Any solution, with which user can make use of different variables easily?
warm regards ramSiva

Hi Virendra
I will maintain different costing sheets as follows:
00001: No overhead
00002: VAT 10%
00003: Service tax 12%
No one is defaulted with any of the profile.
I am thinking to make the field at activity level mandatory.
So, user has to choose the appropriate costing sheet at each activity level.
As the description is maintained with detail of tax, the user can choose the right one.
I request to comment and suggest if any easy way to achieve this requirement.
warm regards

Goods Issue (MB1A) for production order - no stock reduce happening in WM

Hi,
I try to do a Goods Issue with transaction MB1A for a production order, but no stock reduces happens within WM (HUM).
I did the following.
Created a Production order - CO01
Created a TR - LB01 - (assigned production order to the TR)
Created a HU for the materials. (HU02)
Created a Transfer order to storage type 914 with L_TO_CREATE_MOVE_SU.
At the end I want to do an goods Issue with MB1A. This seems not to work correctly. When I fill out the ordernumber and process the transaction a Delivery is created.The materials are already on 914, so it can be issued directly.
What can I do to solve this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Alexander

Please find out is there any accoun t assignment is there for the component in question.
pl got production order disply screen and goto --> material list
check is there any value on the filed account assignment. If that is the case then you need to have special stcok for that account.
If it is empty then check
are you entereing the correct storage location and plant.
if that is also fine then check whether the component is already issued, i.e. goto the component detailed screen and check wthere final issue tick is there for the component...or the componentb is deleted...
come back after these checks.

GATP - ATP Check -Dropping Delivery Against Adavanced Shipment Notification

Dear SAP friends,
As per our current configuration for Scope of Check in GATP, we can confirm outboud delivery only against Physical Stock(CC).
Now we have requirement to create(drop) outbound delivery against Physical Stock(CC) + Advanced Shipment Noticiation(AH). As per my understanding ATP category- AH gets updated whenever any inbound delivery is created for a Purchase Order in ECC.
But here we have special requirement, We need to consider only those inbound deliveries which has ETA date less than Current Date + 5. Meaning it will consider only those Inbound deliveries which has ETA date in the past or has ETA date within next 5 days. How this can be acheived? Does anyone had similar requirements in the past? Possible solutions?
Please let us know any inputs in this regard.
Thanks a lot
Satish

Hi Satish,
I do not think that there is a standard way to control this.
You may have to do development in one of the userexit to consider only those ASN (Receipt elements) which are present in next 5 days.
I do not know the exit name , but you can find the suitable (of course you need help of you developer buddy) using t code SMOD and search for APO*.

G/L Account hits for Production Planning (Process Industry)

Dear Experts,
Please I want to know the G/L Acounts that will be hit/updated during a Process order execution cycle enumerated as follows;
RawMaterials: R09 & R19, SemiFinished: S24, Finished: F29
Each of the three material types above has a different valuation class.
Using Process Order 100000, materials R09 & R19 are processed to produce S24
Using Process Order 100001, material S24 is then processed to produce F29
Confirmation of process order is then carried out using tcode cor6. ( default activities 'Machine & Labour' proposed by the system were also confirmed along with 'Yield' ) And batch number generated for the output products.
The Process Orders are then set to Technically Cpomplete and Order Settlement carried out using tcode co88.
What are the G/L accounts that will be hit in this transaction for
1. Goods issue(261)?
2. Goods receipt(101)?
3. Activities (Laour & Machine)
4. Order Settlement?
Thanks in advance as marks will be awarded accordingly.

for raw material
check in OBYC
check transaction GBB & VBR- you can find the credit and debit account based on valuation class
for GR
iN OBYC
check transaction BSX and AUF- you can find the credit and debit account based on valuation class
for activity
check in Kp26 by giving cost center and activity
you can find the secondary cost element
