Availability check during Shipping

Hi,
I want input regarding availability check during shipping.
It's a make to order scenario & I want to know whether availability check is really required during shipping for checking the sales order stock or it can be managed without availability check.
The reason, why I want to avoid availability check is because the quantity of production order is very small say 10 ton of concrete p day. I require a proper logics to convince my client.
Please share your valuable inputs.
Regards
Suman

Dear Suman
Whatever be the production order quantity, it makes sense to carry out an availability check in the delivery for the following reasons.
If you do not carry out an availability check for particular materials in the sales order, you should definitely check whether the order quantity is available and can be delivered when you create the delivery. Even if you have checked the availability situation in the order, it makes sense to check it once again in the delivery.
The availability check is calculated using planned inward and outward movements of goods. Therefore the delivery situation might have changed in the meantime due to unforeseen circumstances, such as lost output. The availability check in the delivery takes any such changes into account.
Thanks

Availability check during goods issue

Dear All
We have a scenerio where SAP change the GI quantity during GI posting . Even though quantity is confirmed in SO and delivery .
we are not having WM , picking and packing happen in external WH .
Please let me know any setting in customizing which force system to do availability check during GI again , as availability check is already done during SO and delivery creation .
Many Thanks
Kaustubh

Hi,
When you do PGI, you can't issue stock that you don't have (in that SL/Plant). ATP can be done in some cases without SL, and that could lead to such problems.
Alternatively (not recommended!) you can allow negative stocks, so PGI goes through with any quantity, and you reconcile stocks later.

Availability check during reservation - MM

Hi Gurus,
We need to do availability check during the creation of reservation. The check to be made is like this,
The reservation quantity should be lesser or equal to sum of unrestricted stock plus all other open reservations.
If the above condition fails, issue an error message and not allow to create reservation.
I did create new checking rule, checking group and checked the required (may be missing something here) objects to be checked in config, but I still able to create reservation. No error message is displayed.
Gurus, could you send me a step by step for availability check? Also, need to issue a custom error message.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Sundar.

Hi
Go to transaction OMB1, there you will four options;
1. Movement Type
2. Checking Rule
3. Define Checking Rule
4. Transaction Code
Go to Movement Type & put Dynamic Availabilty Check either "B" or "F" against the movement type you want.
& accordingly go to checking rule & then go to Define Checking Rule of yours.
& then go to Transaction Code & the created Checking Rule to the Transaction Code MB21 & MB22.
Hope this solves your problem.
Reward points if useful.

Control availability check during release of production order

friends,
Can you guys help me find the user exit/BADI which will allow me to control the release of production order after the availability check is complete.
In detail, the scenario is that : based on a flag on material master, I should be able to ignore this product's availability during release. I cannot change the availability check to "KP" ( No check) as this product can be sold seperately. So what I thought was that if I get to control the availability check during production order release I would be able to ignore this product before check or may be after check and before the status change.
I found PPCO0021 exit and function module EXIT_SAPLCOZR_003 which is actually intended for release control for automatic batch determination. I am not sure if I can use this.
Please let me know if you guys have any idea.
Thanks
Prod_Planner

Let me rephrase the scenario :
I have a production order for a product P1 which consumes raw materials R1 and R2. R1 is supplied by a nearby vendor every 1 hour to my plant so I do not need to worry about the availability of it when releasing the order but R2 availability should be taken into consideration. So, function 1 or 2 in OPJK will not work (as release need to be stopped if R2 not available) hence I will be using 3. If I use 3, R1 availability is also considered hence the whole order is not released. I will maintain a flag on material master so if R1 has flag, I need to ignore R1's availability but still considering R2.
As mentioned, I found PPCO---21 which could help me but need your help to understand if there is any other way.
Thanks

Availability Check during Sales Order and Inventory Adjustment

Hi, I have a small doubt here regarding the availability check during the sales order creation. When a sales order is placed, the availability check is performed. If the material is available, then a confirmed sales order is recorded and sales order note is placed to the customer. If the material is not available, then a transfer of requirments is passed to MM for that material. Am I clear upto this point ? Apart from this, I have another confusion, when a customer places a sales order and it is confirmed, then are the stocks from the inventory get reduced that time itself ? Or the ordered stock is moved to restricted stock and while doing the PGI in delivery the actual stock is reduced from the inventory. Please confirm. Also add your knowledge here if you feel so. Thanks.

Hi,
The stock will not get reduce from the inventory till PGI is done.However, with respect to the availabillity check, we can control the system to take into consideration of the open orders and open delivery.If the system considers the open order of 5 quantity and the user create a order for 5 quantity for which stock available is 5.Then the system will give as no stock available while PGI even though if the stock are avaialble.

Availability check during process order creation

Hi all,
can anyone tell me significance of availability check during creation /change of process order?? ( in terms of business)
how is the usual processs?

Hi,
Availability check for a material is carried out only if the material is
1. A stock item
2. Not a phantom item
3. Not a bulk material.
This can be carried out
1. during order creation
2. during order release
3. when a created order is saved
Availability check can be triggered either manually or automatically.
For this we need to define in checking control(opjk)
First define a checking group(ovz2) and checking rule and this
must be assigned to checking scope.(opjj)
In the checking scope(opjj) we should define
1. which Mrp elements are to be considered during check
2. which inventory categories are to be taken into account
3. whether Replinishment lead time is to be taken into account or not
4. whether check is also to be carried at storage location level.
This checking rule must be linked to checking control(opjk)in which you can say
1.No availability check for the material
2.Availability check when saving the order
3.What type of check is to be carried
whether ATP CHECK or Check against PIR quantities
4. Whether order should be released or not if there is
any missing parts.
The checking group is assigned to material master MRP3 view.Please check whether checking gorup is assigned to all the components in the BOM.

Availability check during confirmation

Hi all,
I need material availability check do be done during confirmation of a order instead of order release...Where do i have to make the configuration change..???
Regards,
Joseph.

Hi,
As per standard practice, it is always suggested to do availability check at the time of order create / release. However, still if your client is not willing for the same then set no availability check for material, capacity & PRT in OPJK & also in Material master MRP-3 Availability check you can put as no check (KP) case to case basis.
Also if you want to prevent errors in Goods movements at the time of confirmation then you need to maintain following config. setting :
GO to OPK4--> Select your Plant & Material -> Individual Entry General (Tab)--> Error Handling / logs ---> Maintain tick in check boxes Goods Movements & Termination of Incorrect Goods Movements.
However, this config. will work in case you use backflush for components & control key with Auto GR functionality. So that your GI, confirmation & GR all will be linked. System will prevent errors in GI & GR while confirmation with this config.
Hope this helps.

Tejas

Availability check during production order creation - Missing parts details

Hai Gurus,
I have one problem during Availability check when converting Planned order to production order.
1) A- is the finished material, which has A1 to A7 components.
2) A2 is the procured item with safety stock and it has safety stock also.
3) When sale order is created , the material A2 is reserved against the planned order for finished material - A.
4) so when availability is checked during planned order stage , system says no missing parts, when planned order
     is converted to production order system says missing parts for component A2, which is stock and reserved against
     planned order
5) Checking rule for Production order is maintained as follows,
     a) Include safety stock.
     b) Include reservation.
     c) Include sales requirement
     d) Include deliveries.
     e) Include dependent reservations.(x)
     f) Include production orders.(X)
     g) Check release for stock transport orders only.( A)
So now i don't know where I went wrong , so that the system could consider the safety stock of Component A2 which is in stock and already reserved against planned order and it does not show missing parts when planned order is checked.
Waiting for your positive feed back.
Regards,
Sekar chand

Dear,
What checking rule you have maintained for planned order.???
As what i can understand by your question that you have maintained to check reservation only in production order not in planned order. Or one important thing mostly people configure to reserve material only after release or creation of production order. Are you reserving material at planned order stage.?
Check these things. you will automatically find the answer. Hope it will help you. Revert back for more clarification.

Material Availability check during work order creation and Release

Hello All,
We are checking material availability at creation as well as release
Say we have Material XYZ=100 in stock MMBE
Now XYZ =100 is say at normal storage location =75
and scrap storage location=05 and serviceable =20
Currently when availability check is performed it checks for 95 (It excludes scrap storage location 05 )
but we want Availability check to be only for normal stock =75 and not for Serviceable and Scrap location
how to do this in configuration or via exits
Since if the material is under Scrap location it is not counting in Availability check at work order creation this logic is working fine but I do know from where this control is put that when the material is in the stock of scrap it is not counting in Availability check for work orders.Same thing I want to extend it to Serviceable stock .
Why not it is consider it for Scrap storage location , what is config or any MM enhancement
So that when Availability check run it will not consider Materials at SCRAP as well as SERVISABLE storage location also.
Please have your views on this
Regards
pratap

Hello
There are two option for your requiement
1. Changing the status of the servisable storage location stock to restricted use stock . You can include or exclude this stock status material in OPJJ. This solution is not storage location dependent. It is stock status dependent.
2. Please refer the enhancement for the storage location determination. I am not sure about this funtionality:
For production orders the following enhancement is available:
PPCO0005 enhancement for storage loc. determination/backflushing
You can use this enhancement to change the storage location and the indicator 'backflushing' in the reservation.
The enhancement PPCO0005 contains the following enhancement components:
Function exit
EXIT_SAPLCOSD_001 storage location determination/backflushing
You can find the description in modification text of the function exit.
You can find an example of the user exit in the function group XC01 in the include LXCO1F05.

Role of Availability check during order settlement

Dear Gurus,
I would like to ask your help to better understand what is going on.
I have set up an availability check only over material, but when an order is already open due to costing settlement I do not know why the job scheduled go in abend and does not continue just posting a new line into the log as this prg do SDV03V02.
Could somebody help me?
Thanks
Gianluca

hi PSK,
my apologies for the understanding, but what is an MTO?
By the way in an easier way.
When the availability check runs if a user is performing action over it the job (PPIO_ENTRY) goes in abend instead of write a line into a log and proceed.

Availability check during sales orders

Is it possible to do availability check at storage location level?
For example: there is 100 piece of a material in sloc A, and 0 in sloc B. Plant is the same.
Thanks

Hi Murat,
For availablity check at storage location level please check whether:
1) storage location is defaulted in the sales order.
2) In T-code OVZ9 , whether storage inspection checkbox is blank.
If both the above exist, then your requirement will be satisfied.

Component Availability check during MRP Heuristics

Hi Experts,
I am running MRP heurstics to create plannerdorders, during this time i would like to check component availability (planned order/production orders, stock etc).
I don't want to create planned order if component is not available. I don't want to create new PR/Planned order for component.
Component is produced in the same plant.
Regards,
Vipul

Hi Vipul,
Have you tried in PPDS, single-level MRP heuristic SAP_MRP_001 ?
This will run only at single level and not run heuristics for the components.

Hi PP Gurus,
During Conversion it prompts that materials are not available or missing parts log, though in Stock Overview in that Storage Location it contains more quantity(in unrestricted use) that what is needed. Is the requirement date and GR date have some relevancy on this prompt??
