Availability check for sales order stock

Hi,
We use sales order stock in sales order which creates purchase requisition automatically.Movement types for GR 101E, for GI 601E. Material master data has on MRP2 view as GR processing time 2 days for example. I create sales order with requested delivery date today.After saving SO, PR is created and I create PO with delivery date today and post goods receipt document for today. System gives as confirmation date today + 2 days. although the material is in stock.
We use also project stock in sales order which creates purchase requisition automatically.Movement types for GR 101Q, for GI 601Q.I run the same scenario for the same material. As soon as I create the purchase order system confirms the open quantity in sales order for today. (Scope of availability check is the same for both sales orders and includes PO)
What can be the reason?
Thanks

Hi Murat,
i guess the problem is with the 'Check without RLT' indicator' in Availability check control. For the MTO (checking rule AE) i guess this indicator is not set but for the Project systems (Checking rule PS) this indicator is set. This makes the difference. Do the changes as desired in transaction OVZ9.
Please check and revert back if you are still facing the same problem.

Availibility check for sales orders created simultaneously

Hi SD experts,
When a sales order is being created with an item "A", while a second sales order is being created too, at the same time, with the same item "A", the system can't carry out the availibilty check.
It displays the following message : "The material A (plant M500) in item 000010 which you entered for processing is blocked for another transaction. The system is therefore unable to carry out either the availability check or the transfer of requirements."
This is quite logic... But for example for a call center where the operators create orders simultaneously how can we make it possible??
Any suggestions please ?
Thank you,
Bahia.

Hi there,
In SPRO -> SD --> Basic functions --> Availability check & TOR --> Avaliability check --> Avaliability with ATP --> Define material block for other users.
Here you make the settings for different availability check types 02 for individual requirements etc. If you check the field Block, system will block the material for other remaining sales orders if availability check is being carried for one sales order. It is set at plant level. If same material is available at other plants, it will be available there.

Availability check for Sales order

Hi Experts,
I have material say 100199 in which I maintain In house production time as 10 days.
Now I have to create Sales Offer for this material and system check availabity and give delivery date for Offer from Inhouse production time maintained.
Problem is this In house production time is independent of Order quantity so system will give same delivery date irrespective of quantity in sales order.
I want system should propose me delivery shedule from master data maintain
i.e if order is of 120 qty then system should propose and for 30 lot i requires 3 days to manufacture.Order creation date is 09/12/07
30   12/12/07
30   15/12/07
30   18/12/07
How I can achive this in SAP?

Hi Lalit,
You can give Lot size dependent In house Production stimes in Work Scheduling View of Material Master. You can do it in MM02. Wish this solves your problem.

Availability check of sales order in planning strategy 40

Dear friends,
Kindly help me this query:
From online SAP help in Demand Management, it said in planning strategy 40:
"An accurate availability check is performed according to ATP (available to promise) logic during sales order processing. The system checks whether sufficient planned independent requirements have been planned to cover the sales order.... If there is insufficient coverage of components (the sales order quantities exceed the planned independent requirement quantities), the sales orders cannot be confirmed"
According to above paragraph, I think that availability check of sales order is carried out against PIR, if PIR quantity cannot cover sales order quantity then order will not be confirmed, it also means stock on-hand will not be included in availability check. However, my testing reveal a different conclusion: sales order is confirmed against stock on-hand, not PIR. My questions are:
1/ in planning strategy 40, how does system carry out availability check for sales order?
2/ how to interpret above help from SAP?
I got that help from this link: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/cb/7f9b7043b711d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
Many thanks for your clear answers.
Regards,
Duc.

Dear duc pb ,
In 40 its only ATP that works.
you can do another test ,
Create PIR 15 quantity.
Create a stock of 10 quantity.
and now create a sales order firszt of quantity 30, as both of the above after combining cant fullfill this demand, save order run MRP.
system will create orders against PIR (15) and remainibnbg quantity of sales order (5)
run one more test, by creating PIR 15 quantity , no stock and a sales order of with quantity 10.
share your findings.
Thanks

Availability check in sales order for DIEN materials.

Hello,
Is it possible to make availability check in sales orders for a service material e.g.: type DIEN? How can i customize it?

The DIEN material type is not stock managed, so it does not make sense to check the availability. If you need to do something similar you could use material type UNBW, this material is quantity managed but not valuated, so maybe this can help you !

Availability check at Sales Order Create

Dear Experts,
I want to do availability check at sales order creation stage (VA01). My requirement is, the system should check the sales order line qty against the unrestricted stock. And if sufficient stocks not available it should prompt an error message.
In more detail; unrestricted stock of material X is 100 PCs. I put a sales order for the same material for 101 PCs. Then systems should block me from saving the order.
Can some please provide me detailed step-by-step action for configuration of above scenario. Thanks in advance for your support

Changing Availability Checks in Sales orders

hi there,
Can i easily change the Availability Check in a sales order?
i have 5 sales orde rtypes, and I sometimes want to change the Availability Check, how can i manage this?
thanks

There are three types of availability checks
1. Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning
2. Availability Check Against Product Allocation
3. Rule-based Availability Check
For ATP logic, the Checking group and Checking rule combination determines the availability check parameters. The checking group is maintained in the material master, and not to Sales order type. Hence you can control by having different groups attached to different materials.
If you have Advanced Planner Optimiser (APO) then you can use the Rule based availability check. You can attach a Business transaction to a Sales document type and thus control the availability check in sales order level also.
Refer the below extracts:
<b>Define business transaction</b>
Path : spro -- img -- sd -- BF -- Av chk and TOR --- Rule based availabilty check
In this step you can define the business transactions. These transactions must also be available in the APO planning system. Here the availability check control is carried out for the transactions.You can find the business transactions in the APO planning system (Field BPROC) under:
Global ATP -> Settings -> Rule-based ATP -> Conditions -> Assign rule strategy.
<b>Assign business transaction to sales order type</b> t code VOV8
In this IMG activity, you assign the actions you defined previously to the order types. This activates the availability check settings for this order type, that were maintained in the APO planning system.

Disable Availability Check on Sales Order But Activate on Outbound Delv

Greetings all experts !
Currently, there's a new request to create a new processes whereby during the sales order creation, no availability check will be in place but material will still be posted to production planning ( TOR ).
Availability check instead should be activated during the creation of outbound delivery.
I have already configured in such a way that the relevant sch line item ( VOV6 ) - availability check is unchecked and TOR is checked.
But during creation of sales order, availability check is still in place for material specified.
I have check on the necessary requirement class and requirement type settings. Fyi, requirement class used - availability check is ticked. Could this be the reason even though i have disabled availability check on sch line ?
I have tried to untick the availability check setting in requirement class ( OVZG ), and while this can disable the availability check in Sales order, but that configuration will also disable availability check in outbound delivery.
My queries :
1 ) What are the configurations that I need to look into to cater to the above request. To disable availabilty in sales order but instead, run availability in outbound delivery ?
2 ) Is there any way I can disable the availability check on based on sales order type using userexit or function module ?
3 ) Is there any additional function module/bapi/userexit that i can implement to force outbound delivery to run availability check ?
My apologies for such lenghty message here but really really need some valuable feedback here as I'm totally at lost with the new requirement for now.
Many thanks in advance.
Warmest Regards,
Edie O

In SPRO
goto SD>Schedule line>Define schedule line categories
here check if the schedule line category associated with your mentioned order has a flag ticked for Availability.
Availability check for sales
You must carry out an availability check for the following transaction.
The indicator is determined as a proposal in conjunction with the respective requirements type. It can be changed in individual shipping transactions. However, only one restriction is effective.
Example
You do not set an indicator for maintaining the requirements type. In this case, no availability check is carried out. This is independent of the selection in the respective transaction.
You set an indicator for maintaining the requirements type. In this case you can decide whether or not you require an availability check for the relevant transaction.
reward points if it helps

User exit in ATP Check for sales Order to trigger notification

Hi All
please let me know is there any user exit after ATP check or in ATP check for sales order to trigger a notication mail.
Regards
Kishore

Hi,
User Exits For Availability Check are given below:-
The user exits named here are planned for projects that are to be carried out in agreement with SAP development as they may only be used in consultation with SAP.
USEREXIT_PLANT_SELECTION in program RV03VFZZ is an exception to this rule (see below).
User exits in program FV45VFZZ
USEREXIT_ADD_FIELD_TO_HEADER
USEREXIT_ADD_FIELD_TO_LINE
User exits in program FV45VFZY
USEREXIT_DELIVERY_GROUPS

USEREXIT_QUOTA_KEY_VALUE
User exits in program RV03VFZZ
USEREXIT_AVAILABILITY_IN
USEREXIT_AVAILABILITY_OUT
USEREXIT_DARA_REFRESH
USEREXIT_PLANT_SELECTION
This user exit is used to adjust the flow during plant transfer. A list of permitted plants, where this material is created, is determined and checked in the standard R/3 delivery. A dialog box appears where you can select the plants. The user exits allow you to modify the plant table so that plant selection takes place in advance for every flagged selection and a dialog box becomes unnecessary.

Requisitions for sale order stock

Requisitions for sale order stock that are generated directly from the
sales order are not passed to SRM but requisitions that are created
manually for sales order stock are passed to SRM.
Why is the sourcing of a requisition for sales order stock where the
requisition was created directly from the sales order not supported?

Hi,
We need same requirement, we found only PR's with item category "5"(Third party ) created from sales are transfered to SRM.( It is hard coaded in ECC).
Let us know if you are able to resolve your issue.
Thank you

Goods Receipt for sales order stock

Hi everybody,
I want to receive materials for sales order stock. what I did:
1- Created a Purchase order,
2- Account Assignment = C
3- went to MIGO
4- selected PO number
5- set movement type 101 / E
the SAP give error message that you have not planned 101 / E !!!!
I searched alot but couldn\t find the solution.

Hi Dear,
When you use C account assignment category, System will consume those materials/services for the respective sales order at the time goods receipt/service confirmation. There is no inventory possible when we use, account assignment C as a standard, If you want to make inventorize, we have to choose account assignment category M against sales order.
When we are procuring material against project, Account assignment Q-will be inventoried and P-will be consumed for respective cost object
Like the same M-will be inventoried and C--will be consumed for respective cost object

STO for sales order stock

Hi All
If I am not mistaken, one cannot do a STO for special stock using 2 step transfer, however it is possible in a one step process.
I have made the setting in config to use a one step process, and it have been set up to use movement type 647.
I am trying to move Sales order stock from one plant to another plant, and want to maintain it as special stock.
I can get the process to create the delivery, however, when I try and post goods issue the delivery document, I get the following message.
MSSA-SABWE exceeded by 2 EA: CISCO1402 ZA30 1000 SALEABLE E
Cisco1402 is the material
ZA30 is the plant
1000 is the storage location
Saleable is the split valuation we using
E is the special stock indicator for sales order stock.
If anyone could please give me some direction.
Thanks

Hi
We are not using blocked stock at all in any of our processes.
My understanding is that movement type 647 will not look or put stock into blocked stock.
If I look at table MSSA, for that Sales order number and material number, it comes up with one entry. It has a quantity of 2 in unrestricted, Val. GR Blocked Stck is 0.
Should the quantity of 2 be appearing in there?
So the process followed thus far is:
Sales order raised
Preq auto created from SO
Preq converted to PO
GR for PO
STO created to move sales order stock from one plant to another
Delivery created,
cannot post goods issue.
Thanks

Availability check for Make to stock and Make to Order

Dear All,
Client is selling Make to stock and make to Order material.
How and what settings need to do for Avaialbility check.or we can use standard one.
I hope in case of Make to Order availability check may not happen.
Please correct me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Shrikant

hi,
yes for make to order we dont have AvChk. for make to stock items u need to follow the
below configuration.
Availability check
1. Availability check is an integral part of the business process that determines if the required delivery quantity can be met on a required delivery date. For this purpose the system takes into account pre-delivery activities such as scheduling for picking or packing times and the time taken to produce or obtain the material. It also performs several background functions such as Backorder processing, rescheduling and ATP quantities.
2. Backorder processing: processing of a sales order that has not been fully confirmed or not confirmed at a certain delivery date.
3. Rescheduling: is a proposal of how u2013 confirmed quantities already assigned to a sales order can be reassigned to other sales orders that have a higher priority.
4. Available to promise (ATP): is a process of checking the available quantities of a material. The ATP quantity consists of warehouse stock + planned receipts (incoming stock) u2013 planned issues (outgoing stock). to examine stock on hand (CO09) proceed to logistics u2013 sales & distribution u2013 sales u2013 environment u2013 availability overview.
5. Replenishment lead time (RLT): is the time taken for the material to become available either internally (in house production) or externally (from a vendor). The most important things to consider during an external procurement are purchasing and MRP 2 (procurement) views of MMR where the processing time for purchasing, planned delivery time and goods receipt processing time are taken into account. On the other hand internal procurement is based on in house production time (MRP 2 view) goods receipt processing time or alternatively RLT time, which is found on MRP 3 view.
6. RLT (Replenishment Lead Time) is the time taken for the material to become available. RLT is only used when doing an ATP check (Available To Promise). The value of RLT for a material is specified on material master record.
7. There are three types of availability checks u2013
Check on basis of ATP quantities.
Check against product allocation.
Check against planning.
Configuring Availability check through Checking Groups u2013
1. The checking group + checking rule determine how the availability check is to be performed.
2. The checking group determines whether and how the system checks the stock availability and generates requirements for material planning. The checking group defines what type of requirements will be passed on i.e. summarized requirements (daily/weekly) or individual requirements for each sales order.
3. The checking rule applies to how the availability check is to be carried out at the transaction level. Note that you must define checking rules for each individual application such as for production orders for example. In Sales and Distribution, the checking rule is specified internally within the system and cannot be changed.
4. The checking rule, in conjunction with the checking group, determines the scope of the availability check for every business operation; that is, which stocks, receipts and issues are to be included in the availability check and whether the check is to be carried out with or without the replenishment lead time.
5. Briefly explaining the above u2013 checking group determines which type of requirement to be passed on to MRP whether it be individual or summarized and checking rule which is at the transaction level and can be configured independently for each application module, determines which stocks, receipts and issues to be taken into account. For performing an availability check checking group has to work in conjunction with checking rule.
6. Advantages of individual processing over summarized processing u2013
Backorder processing is possible.
You can access (MD04) order, line and schedule line individually which gives a greater control on available stock and requirements placed on stock.
The system automatically uses individual requirements in case of special stock items.
7. Required data for the Availability check to be carried out u2013
The Availability check must be switched on at the requirement class level.
The Availability check must be set at the schedule line level.
A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found.
A plant must be defined in the sales order for each schedule line item (in other words plant must be defined for every material in MMR).
A checking group must be defined in the material master record in the MRP3 screen in the availability check field.
8. Configuring Availability check and defining Checking Groups u2013
Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
SAP standard checking groups are 01 u2013 summarized requirements and 02 u2013 individual requirements or you can create your own by copying the standard ones.
Total sales and total deliveries columns are there to configure a checking rule to sum up requirements to post to MRP either individually or by day or week.
Block quantity required can be set if you want several users to be able to process the material simultaneously in different transactions without blocking each other.
The no check indicator is CHECKED when you DO NOT want the system to carry out ATP check.
9. Defining material block for other users u2013 the block check box is an indicator that enables you to block material master records of a particular material during the availability check and restrict other users from accessing same master record and reserve the material. If the block is not set, two users can confirm the same material at the same time for two different orders, not knowing if the stock is available or not. If you select this field, the material is blocked during the availability check and other users cannot: a) Make changes in the material master record. b) Create purchase orders for the material. C) Create orders for the material.
10. Defining default values for checking groups - Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
However if there is no entry present in the material master record for the checking group, a default value can be set here, depending on material type and plant.
This default value will be used by the system depending on the material type mentioned in MMR and plant in sales order.
If an entry exists, this default value is over written by MMR.
11. Controlling Availability Check u2013 in this section, you tell the system what stock on hand and what inward and outward movements of stock it must take into account when performing the availability check in addition to whether or not to consider the replenishment lead time.
12. These settings are based on the checking group that is assigned to the material master record and the checking rule that is predefined and assigned to the sales and distribution transaction.
13. These settings carry out control both for sales order and delivery as well. This is due to the fact that you may want to include specific stock or incoming stock for the sales order, yet at the time of the delivery only include physical stock on hand waiting to be shipped.
14. It is possible to indicate to the system that you would like the availability check NOT TO CHECK the stock at the storage location level. This indicator is used to set the scope of the availability check.
15. It is used to switch off the check at storage location level. You create a reservation for a particular storage location. However, the scope of the availability check is set in such a way as to exclude the storage location. In this case, the system carries out the check at plant level only and does not take the storage location into account that is specified in the reservation.
16. Should you not want the system to automatically check RLT, you may indicate so here. RLT is the time taken for a material to become available. It is only used when doing an ATP check and is taken from MMR.
17. Defining the elements in the availability check entirely depends on the business needs, but a few tips are given under u2013
When controlling the Availability check at the time of the sales order, a purchase requisition does not necessarily indicate by it is going to come into the plant.
A shipping notification on the other hand - a confirmed purchase order u2013 is a good indicator of receiving stock on a specified date.
It is always recommended not to select the shipping notifications for the delivery requirements type as you may not actually receive the stock into plant or warehouse for which you are creating a delivery.
