Availability check without MRP
Hi all,
we have trading goods scenaios. There is no production dept. But we do have maintain all stocks maintain / procured from vendors. however when a customer come and asks the particular material at the same time availability should be carry out and substituon materials also(popup same FFFC) plant wise, storage location wise i want to carry out av check at one shot means at the legacy system they want to maintain like that only. so how i can proceed. pls help me in this regard.
Thanking You,
Babu
Hi,
1. Maintain the checking group in the material master in the sales view.
2. Also check the required configuration for the ATP is all there.
3. Once when you have the sales order enter you can to the ATP check inthe sales order item level and do the confirmation.
4. If you want to handle the substiution , then enter the material determination
5. In material determination activate the ATP Check

PRT Availability Check for MRP
Hi experts,
Even though a PRT is assigned to operations in one order, when I create another order with the same PRT, on running the availabilty check the system shows me that "all PRT's are available"
Does anyone know what are the relevant customizing settings to be made?
Besides this, when we run a Production MRP we need to see the planned dates for the PRT. However the MRP only takes into account the Work Centers availibilty and not the PRTs availability.
Has anyone had this problem before? Please mention the required settings or workaround solution.
Best regards and thanks,
FernandoWe made a workaround using suboperations to simulate the PRTs because we didn't find the PRT function really useful or friendly for us.

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,
VipulHi 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.

Availability check with MRP area at Sloc level
HI We have MRP area at storage location level maintained for materials. Stock exists in the plant in the storage location which is part of the MRP area.
Now when I create STO and try to create delivery for the same, system is giving message 0 stock available and not creating delivery. Material has 02 Avl Chck group.If I deactivate the MRP area in the material master, it allows creation of delivery.
How can I ensure that system creates delivery even though stocks exist in MRP area relevant sloc only in the plant?
SriramI am sure you have already moved on from this issue, but what you mention is a limitation prior to ECC 6. You can not identify on the purchasing document the source sloc of the supplying plant. This is why you can not create the STO between sloc MRP areas. I was told this was resolved in ECC 6.

Dear All,
I need your inputs in the following scenarios:
a) Availability Check
b) MRP
I know some details about customizing these from SD Point of view(IMG>SD>Basic Functions).
I need to understand logically why and where these are used in SD Flow / SD Module.
Kindly give your suggestions to understand these in a better way.
I would be greatful to you if you can provide me the links or sources wherein I get the information regarding these.
Regards,
Raj Kumar Reddy,
SAP-SD Consultant.Dear SD
a) Availability Check
When you enter a sales order, you can only confirm the delivery of the goods for the required delivery date if the goods are available for all the necessary processing activities which take place before delivery:
The shipping department must ensure that freight forwarding or another shipping company is advised early enough so that sufficient time remains for packing and loading to be carried out. An availability check can be carried out on the deadline date for availability for the goods.
The procurement department must ensure that the production and purchasing departments are advised of inadequate stock quantities so that goods can either be produced punctually or ordered. Sales transfers the information on materials ordered as requirements to material requirements planning. Requirements are planned outward movements of stock. The transfer of requirements informs production that goods must be produced, or advises purchasing that purchase requisitions have been created for which purchase orders must be created and sent to the suppliers. An availability check can only be carried out if these requirements are transferred.
b) MRP
The main function of material requirements planning is to guarantee material availability, that is, it is used to procure or produce the requirement quantities on time both for internal purposes and for sales and distribution. This process involves the monitoring of stocks and, in particular, the automatic creation of procurement proposals for purchasing and production.
In doing so, MRP tries to strike the best balance possible between
optimizing the service level and
minimizing costs and capital lockup.
The MRP component (PP-MRP) assists and relieves MRP controllers in their area of responsibility. The MRP controller is responsible for all activities related to specifying the type, quantity, and time of the requirements, in addition to calculating when and for what quantity an order proposal has to be created to cover these requirements. The MRP controller needs all the information on stocks, stock reservations, and stocks on order to calculate quantities, and also needs information on lead times and procurement times to calculate dates. The MRP controller defines a suitable MRP and lot-sizing procedure for each material to determine procurement proposals.
Thanks

Hello Folks
I have a problem in availability check . When i raise a sale order for material A quantity 1500 and when i have 1000 quantity of material A in stock, there are two schedule lines, and on the order creation date there is 0 quantity confirmed even though 1000 quantity of Material A is available. Instead it creates a another schedule line where it confirms wholly the 1500 quantity.
I have a necessity where i need to confirm 1000 material stock on the order creation date, and the rest 500should be confirmed on a later date. Have also checked with the config, i don't find anything wrong, Please advise me or guide me through how to handle this now !!
Thanks in advance
Cheers
VjHi,
1.If the material is already assigned to existing order, you can not assign it to other order.
2.At the schedule line level, check item availability which will take u to availability overview screen..
There selecet System Proposal push butto which will meet ur requirement..
If u select one time push button, then you'll be getting only one schedule line with the 1000 qty.
If u select full qty push button, then you'll be getting one schedule line with 1000 qty and remaining 500 qty will be in next schedule line date which can also meet ur req.
If u select proposal, system will propose a date which will also meet ur req..
Note that the material should be available at the time of availability check without getting assigned into any order..
Make sure that the customer is allowing partial delivery..
Hope it'll helpful..
Thanks & Regards,

Causes for not displaying Availability Check Screen
Hi gurus
Can anyone explain me some reasons about why the availability check screen is not showed in a sales order item? I have a message saying "Sales order item not specified in requirement", It depends on the configuration of availability check?, how can I see how is the Availability check configured on my SAP?.
Thanks a Lot.
Regards
SorayaHi soraya
In availability check , requirement class is global . it affects the entire system. For this requirement class a requirement type is assigned
You can see this requirement type in the shipping tab as you have the sale tab, item overview tab in the same row last but one tab is shipping tab , click on that shipping tab , you can see a requirement type is assigned .
Example :
Generally for MTS
stratergy group - 10 , availability check -02, MRP type - PD
requirement type - KSL or 041
Generally for MTO
stratergy group - 20 , availability check -02, MRP type - PD
requirement type - KSL or 041
Let me know the status

Disable Availability Check Based on Sales Order Type
Hi All SD experts,
Usually ( correct me if i'm wrong ) availability check is set via schedule lines item type. Is there any way that I can disable the availability check based solely on Sales Order Type ? Meaning no matter what item category or schedule lines assigned to materials, availability check will still be disable.
Besides setting in schedule lines type, what are others config that might trigger availability check ? MRP settings ? Movement type ?
Any valuable feedback will be great and much appreciated. A big thank you in advance.
Warmest Regards,
EdieHI EDIE
In order for the availability check to happen,the following configuration settings are required.
Availability check:
a) you have to define requirement class & requirement type.
b) you have to activate at scheduline category level
c) in deleviry item.cat ,there is availability check off field,,,,, if u dont mention any values here,then system checks for availability.if u mention 'x' here,then system dont check for availability.
d) you define checking group and checking rule ,these determine how availability check is going to be performed
MRP:
MRP determines how material is planned,whether it is inhouse production or external procurement.MRP also determines the time taken for the material to become available for ready use.When ever an order is rised,the requirement is passed to MRP through transfer of requirements(TOR), here MRP determines the inhouse production time or external procurement time.
Movement Type: Movement type determines the type of material movement ,whether it is Goods Issue ,,, or ,, Goods Recipt,,,,, stock transfer between two plants etc.Movement type is determined in schedule line category level.

Stop Availability checking in SAP
Hi all,
We have a situation where we do "not" want availability checking to look at any MRP elements or inventory in SAP.
I created a new checking rule where ATP will not look at the MRP elements, and this works fine, BUT ATP will still confirm a Sales order on todays date if inventory is available.
We need to have all sales orders confirm 10 work days from the date of order entry.
Please advise how to make sales orders confirm 10 workdays from date of sales order creation.
Appreciate your help!
PaulHi Paul
If availability check should not take place then in MMR dont maintain Availability check , in MRP tab .Secondly as you want to confirm sales order after 10 days then maintain Lead Time in Days feild in VOV8 as 7 days and in shipping point maintain 3 days then system will confirm the delivery date after 10 days only.But make sure that you are keeping RLT, feild blank in MMR data

Exclude availability check for a particular stor. loc.
Hi,
I need to exclude a stor. loc. for availability check. MRP should not be excluded.
How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.
SonalHi ,
For exclude the storage location from availability check plz follow the below
1. Go to transaction OPPJ
2.Select Determine Check
3.Select the availability type which you use and go to details
4.There you can find the Storage location check tab
5.put the check mark in No Storage location inspection and save.
So that the storage location will not be included.
Hope it will clear you.

Hi,
the system always confirms stock in sales order when availibility check is with RLT since it assumes it will have stock at the end of RLT
what happnens when availibility check is done without RLT in sales order. does it confirms stock in sales order. if yes then how it confirms.
regards
sachinHello, thanks for ur reply to my previous question on Availibility check without RLT. can u pls answer the follwoing.
I have a scenario where i make a sales order for 100 pcs on 23.8.08. the delivery date to customer is 01.09.08 and the material availibity date calculated by system is 28.8.08(01.09.08 less transit time less pick pack time).
when the system does the availibilty check for the material on 23.08.8, it found no stock. yet my system confirms the schedule line for delivery date of 01.09.08.( obviously it is becasue availibility check includes RLT). what is the relevance of the scope of ATP check, i.e. opening stock, incoming purchases and outgoing sales orders. what happens when we check incoming PO and outgoing sales orders in scope of atp check. if my opening stock is 50 pcs and incmoing stock is 60 pcs and outgoing sales order (excluding this one i have used as an example) is 10 pcs, i think 100 pcs of my sales order can be confimred. if this is so, what is the point of having a check with RLT, since the system uses the above incoming PO+outgoing SO for atp check
is there any connection between checking the incoming PO and GR processing time in material master ?
i think the stock which gets confirmed in sales order, the stock is locked for that sales order. and if a new sales order is made, then the availabl qty for this new sales orders gets reduced beaucse there is a check in atp for the outgoing sales orders. ami i right ??
even if the required stock is already available in plant and the the schedule line is confirmed in sales order, do the sales order is being shown in MD04 or the sales order is shown in MD04 only for those quantities which requires production
how the information is transferred to production department that material should be ready by 28.08.08.( material availibity date). what if the production department is not able to produce the material by 28.08.08
when the production manufactures the material, how it is attached to the sales order
what is the point of doing availibity check in deliveries.

dear friends,
can you pls let me know ,
1) what is the difference between "Individual requirement" - 02 and "Daily requirement" - 01 in Availability check field - MRP-3 view.
2) can u explain with example, ie when to use Daily / individual requirements.
3) If you go to SPRO , Availability check--> Define checking control
here you get the details of Plant , Order type and Business function.
so is there any link between this Business function and Daily / Individual requirements of MRP-3 view.
thnx-rgds
AmitabhHi,
individual reqmt:
whenever a reqmt comes for an material on the same day
ex reqmt 1 10pc
ex reqmt 2 10pc
this will be maintained as two separate reqmts in MD04 for which two separate planned orders for the material will be created.
Daily remts:
Reqmt 1 10 pc on 08.08.07
Reqmt 2 10 pc on 08.08.07
The two reqmts will be grouped together as one reqmt for the material on the same day .
In this case one planned order will be created after md02.
planned order will be created on 08.08.07 for 20 pcs

Availability check in sales order without RLT
Hi Gurus,
System always confirms stock in sales order when availability check is with RLT since it assumes it will have stock at the end of RLT.
I want to know that what happens when availability check is done without RLT in sales order. Does it confirm stock in sales order? If its confirmed then how it will be confirmed
Thanks
VimalDear Vimal,
If the stock is available system will confirm the availability. Otherwise, you need reconfirm the order once the stock is updated. You can do this using rescheduling or back order processing.
If you want the system to check the replenishment lead time, you should make sure that you have entered a value in at least one of the following three fields in the material master:
GR (goods receipt) processing time (Purchasing view)
Planned delivery time (MRP I view)
GR processing time (MRP II view)
Otherwise, the system confirms every requirement.
Hope this suffice,
Pl award marks if this is satisfactory or ask for more details!
