Availability check in Enjoy Purchase Order & Requisition

Hi Experts,
The availability check is used in 4.7E also but what is difference in Ecc 6.0 or new functionality added
Can any one plz let me know
Regards
Pratap

Below is capture from sap release documentation :
Availability Check in Enjoy Purchase Order and Requisition
(Changed)
Use
As of SAP ECC 6.0, SAP_APPL 600, display and checking of availability are invokable separately in the
Enjoy purchase order and requisition in line with the system behavior on the Sales side.
You invoke the display and checking of availability in the Enjoy purchase order (transaction code
ME21N) and the Enjoy purchase requisition (transaction code ME51N) as follows:
- To display the availability overview, choose Environment -> Availability
- To check availability, choose the Check Availability icon.
13.6.16.3 System Behavior After Availability Check for an Item (Changed)
Use
If you carry out the availability check for an item of a stock transport order, hitherto the system adopted
confirmations as per the desired date/time only.
SAP AG 30
______________________________________________________S_A_P_-S_y_s_te_m_
As of SAP ECC 6.0, SAP_APPL 600, you can define in Customizing how the system reacts if the desired
quantity cannot be confirmed for the desired date/time.
You have a choice of two settings:
- Confirmation as per desired date/time
This is the standard setting and corresponds to previous system behavior.
- Delivery proposal
- Full confirmation
Effects on Customizing
You make the settings in the Rule for Adoption of ATP Results in Purchasing field in Customizing for
Purchasing under Purchase Order -> Set Up Stock Transport Order -> Assign Delivery Type and
Checking Rule.

BOM in standard PURCHASE order/requisition

I would like to use BOM as a specification of a "group" of materials procured many times in the same or similar configuration.(eg. servers with specific configuration listing all parts).
Is it possible, to use material BOM in standard purchase order (NEITHER SUBCONTRACTING NOR PRODUCTION ORDERS) as a kind of "recipe" for eg. server configuration.
What I would like to achive is to reduce ammount of work in document entry. Instead of entering 30-50 position for each purchase requisition/order, I would like to use for this material BOM.
Is it possible?
If not, what other object can serve for preparing a list of materials to procure?
How the buttons "BOM Explosion" and "Components" can be turned on on standard purchase order/requisition?
Thanks in advance for help.
Best regards,
Wojciech

Hi,
To the best of my knowledge - BOM's are used in the context of value addition say - a manufacturing or processing involved in converting the inputs to the final prodcut.
While configurable items are used in a scenario where in a simple putting together / packaging in to a kit kind of activity is involved.In this scenario the final product is packaged to the requirements from picking the items of choice from the available prodcut list.
As it seemed the requirement as indicated in the question are in line with this concept I had suggested this solution of usage of Configurable materials.
I have not come accross a scenario of BOM and BOM explosion in Procurement excepet for Sub contracting.
How ever , I appreciate if any one can share information on BOM & Explosion in Purchase order.
Hope this information helps.
Thanks & regards

Supplier number required in Purchase order/ requisition

Hi Gurus,
Requirement is to see supplier number in purchase order/ requisition.
If we give supplier number automatically system should pickup the supplier name, if we give name system should pick up the supplier number like customer in sales order form.
I have checked is there any hided field for supplier number not find any field, is there any possibility through Descriptive flex fields to achieve the requirement.
Thanks
AK

Hi AK,
Your requirement is possible only thru "forms personalisation".
Also you need to link the supplier number with suppier name so that by selecting the supplier number supplier name defaults in the form.
DFF does not help much here...it only captures the supplier number info.
Thanks

Does SAP provide an extractor for the Purchase order requisitions?

Hi,
I hope, there is no standard ES for EBAN table.So you may need to use Generic extractor.

How to make material availability check work during Work Order creation

Hi Experts,
Kindly advice about these matters:
1. How to make material availability check work during Work Order creation?
My requirement is Work Order can not be created when it has missing parts. I have set the config to '3' can not created when is has missing parts, but it still does not work.
I have implemented SAP Notes 1148139 on my system (SAP ECC 6 Ehp 5) also, but still does not have any effect.
I must not set the config Res./Purch Doc creation to 'immediately', because it does not fit to my user requirement. Is there anyone knows how to solve this requirement?
2. How to make information message/ Availability check screen appear when sparepart is missing, without clicking Availability Check button? for example: appear when clicking Save button.
Thank you

Hi Maheswaran,
I have implement the prerequisite notes. (Notes 790219 and 1034962). Do you know why it is still does not work?

Set Availability Check to Exclude Planned Order

Hi All,
anyone know how to set the availability check so it will not include the planned order in the calculation ?
I find one setting in SPRO, the path is :
Sales & distribution ==> Basic functions ==> availability check and Transfer of Requirements ==> Availability Check ==> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning ==> Carry Out Control for Availability Check
select one of the record, and update filed "Incl. Planned Orders".
I've uncheck that field, but I can't get the appropriate result. When I create a new sales order, the availability check still take the planned order I created before into account.
The problem is, my user want to prevent creating delivery before the goods are already put in the stock. So the planned order should not be considered in the availblity check.
Thank you in advance
Rudy

Hi Rudy,
Concept of availability check is to verify if the stock is available at the time of creation of sales order. If available, when it can be ready for delivery (as Packing, arranging for transportation, etc may have lead time) & if not available, when it would be available considering Packing, arranging for transportation, etc lead time.
Availability check whether material is available on required delivery date (backward scheduling) or not. If not available on required delivery date, system will propose next available date (forward scheduling)
1. Define Checking Groups
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Define Checking Groups
You define checking groups with which you specify the type of requirements records the system is to create when processing sales orders or deliveries
2. Define Material Block for Other Users
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Define Material Block for Other Users.
3 .Define Checking Groups Default Value
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Define Checking Groups Default Value.
4. Carry out Control for Availability Check
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Carry Out Control for Availability Check.
5. Define Procedure by Requirements Class
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Define Procedure by Requirements Class.
6. Define Procedure for Each Schedule Line Category
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Define Procedure for Each Schedule Line Category.
7. Determine Procedure for Each Delivery Item Category
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Determine Procedure for Each Delivery Item Category.
8. Checking Rule for Updating Backorders
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Checking Rule for Updating Backorders.
9. Define Default Settings
Menu Path: SPRO>SD>Basic Functions>Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements> Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning>Define Default Settings.
Availability checks
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 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) planned issues (outgoing stock). to examine stock on hand (CO09) proceed to logistics sales & distribution sales environment 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
Check on basis of ATP quantities.
Check against product allocation.
Check against planning.
Configuring Availability check through Checking Groups
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 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
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
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
Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
SAP standard checking groups are 01 summarized requirements and 02 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 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 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
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 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.

Seperating purchase order requisitions by demand origin

Hello All,
I am hoping someone has some familiarity with dual flows for receipts.
Our supply chain services direct assembly (production order demand) and customer services (plant transfer order). Our purchase orders communicate the demand to the vendors without any indication of demand source. Once materials are received, we create a plant transfer order to move from our plant to the CS plant.
I am wondering if it is possible to setup SAP to segregate the demand to drive separate purchase requisitions. This would allow the product to be direct directly to customer services at receipt. In the screen capture below there is the dependent demand from assembly and the ConRel demand from the customer services plant (D003). These are rolled up in to purchase orders based on order policy.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,
In the standard MRP this is not possible to do it. You could use lot size EX (lot for lot), but if there are more than demand requirement on the same day, then the MRP will create a single replenishment order.
You can try with BADI: MD_ADD_ELEMENT. Check this thread:
How to create separate planned order / purchase requesition for same date

New smart form picking enjoy purchase order /SAPDII/SPP_ORDER

Hi Experts,
Ours is a new implementation project.
Requirement is to design a new smart form for purchase order.
The print program for the purchase order is loaded.
When I go for print preview the print program is calling the enjoy PO and not my form.
I checked in the transaction NACE
PRINT PROGRAM : Z_SMBZA_ZA_FM06P
FORM ROUTINE :ENTRY_NEU
FORM : -
PDF/SMARTFORM : Z_MMPO_ZA
My print program has 2 includes
INCLUDE Z_SMBA0_AA_FM06TOP.
INCLUDE Z_SMBA0_AA_FM06PE02.
Every thing is working fine except with the following piece of code
IF NOT tnapr-sform IS INITIAL.
lf_formname = tnapr-sform.
ELSE.
MESSAGE e001(ssfcomposer).
ENDIF.
Here I am getting tnapr-form as /SAPDII/SPP_ORDER and not Z_MMPO_ZA
If I change the field to Z_MMPO_ZA in debugging it works fine and I am getting the output of my form.
In the table TNAPR the field SFORM shows Z_MMPO_ZA
In the table NAST the field PFLD3 shows /SAPDII/SPP_ORDER
Can some one help me how to make the program by default read my form and not /SAPDII/SPP_ORDER
Thanks
Joshi

Hi,
IF NOT tnapr-sform IS INITIAL.
lf_formname = tnapr-sform.
ELSE.
MESSAGE e001(ssfcomposer).
ENDIF.
In debugging check what is value in TNAPR-KSCHL and confirm whether this is the desired output for PO printing.
Also check in PO Header --> Messages, what is the output type configured there. If it is not the desired output type, try adding your desired output type there and chek the print preview.
Also confirm the NACE settings are correct for your Output Type used wihile taking the PO printout.
Thanks & Regards,

Purchase Order Requisition

Hi Gurus,
             I want to clarify that only for Third party Item Category BANS the Purchase Requisition is triggered and can a purchase order be triggered for a Make to Order or any other item Category.
Regards,
Sarosh

Dear Sarosh,
yes, you can see the link to the production order from the sales order. If you go to the transaction VA02 or VA03, mark the item and go to the schedule line screen. Here you see under the schedule lines the following buttons:
    Sales    Shipping    Procurement
In the case of assembly order you can see 4 buttons:
   Sales    Shipping    Procurement     Production Order
In the case of third-party order you see other 4 buttons:
   Sales    Shipping    Procurement     Purchase Requisition
So, it is impossible to have purchase requisition button and production order button simultaneously. Also in coding, these processes (both located in the include FV45EFMA) are completely separated, also in VBAP and VBEP the different fields are filled.
To be sure that you have an assembly order, you can go to the schedule line screen, call debugger and check the field T459K-MNTGA. If the field contains '1' or '2' then you have static assembly, if the field contains '3' or '4' then you have a dynamic assembly, if the field is empty, then you have no assembly process (in the terminology "Make-To-Order" and "Assembly Order" are the same).
So, on the schedule line screen you can see the linked productioon order.
I hope, this info helps you further.

Then go to MIGO transaction to select the movement type 122 to return the goods,what's the whole precedure for returning the goods to the vendor,can anybody tell me,very appriated!

Hi,
Retun to vendor through have two types....
One is you have Po created, vendor send the item in that few items have rejected so you need to return the item to vendor......

sencond type is Retun PO..... In Po while creting the PO tick the return indication..
If you do the GR system will pick 161mopvent type.. ( GR returns)...

Availability check in make to order

Hi,
Iam in the process of configuring sales order process for one of my finnish customer. The scenario is make to order. Few things are troubling me. I need to know how is the availablity check is done in case of make to order scenario. questions are as follows-
a) The stock is not available since it will be made as and when sales order is created and requirements t/f to PP/MM. So there is no point in switching on availability check in sales order. Only TOR shud be switched on for sales order schedule line. If availibility check is switched off , then there will be no delivery/transport scheduling too or I think i need to switch off delivery/transport shceduling seprarately too since there is no point in calculation of material availability date............ Am i right ?
If you disagree, then why AC needs to be swithced on and what ATP settings shud be flagged( i mean sales requirments, opening stock, planned stock etc) !
b) If you agree that AC needs to be switched off, then how is the stock confirmed in sales order. Is it after production order is made and then the schedule lines are confirmed.
c) If one agrees on both points a and b, then if my customer wants a delivery date after creating a sales order, then how the system will calculate the delivery date in sales order since availibility check and delivery schdeuling both are switched off.
regds

Hi,
If you carry out ATP in MTO,
system will give you probable date of material available date,confirm date,schedule date,
it will not confirm material immediately and give schedule line as like STO.

Availability check Problem in sales order according MRP sterategy

hi,
We are using strategy 56 for configurable final product and strategy 65
for its variants.Requirement type is "ELV V". According this requirement type,
it is not possible to confirm availability check and then deliver the
sales order. We tried to mark availability check for requirement type ELV V in OVZG Tcode, but the
following error came up: "Check against plan material can only be carried
out w/o avail.check". Is there any setting to handle this problem to work
with strategies 56 and 65? Is it some configuration that we forgot?
Thanks,

Yes, We have maintained planned del. time. and other fields also,
My problem is that, To make assembly of material A we have two component material B and C.
in the sales order of material A, system should check availability of component material B and C.
please help
