BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3 creating unwanted Dependent Demand

We are using the BAPI function BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3
to create Production Orders to integrate WIP from a
legacy system. The presence of PDS for the product on which the production order is created, makes the PDS assignment to the production order. But, it is also creating a depenedent demand for the component in PDS, which inturn pegs to the supply on the component. We dont want the dependent demand to be created and peg to the supply, as the supply is already reduced in the external system.
We tried using PLANNING_MODE_USAGE parameter, but was not able to stop the creation of dependent demand.
Any way around this?

Hi,
Do you need the PDS in the planning system (APO) at all in case you don't want to see the dependant demand. The BAPI
BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3 documentation says:
For you to be able to create an order, a valid source of supply must exist for in-house production. This can be a production process model (PPM) of the type PP/DS or a production data structure (PDS). The source of supply is then used to generate the order. The order structure (components, operations, durations, capacity requirements, and so on) is determined based on the explosion. If a valid source of supply does not exist, a 'dummy' activity is generated and the order is created without structure and with only a main component.
We create production orders with dummy activities and only the output component using the BAPI without having the PPMs at the supply plant.
Regards
Vinod
NB: Also try 'Deactivate Dynamic Pegging' option in the product-supply location master data in  the 'Demands' tab to ensure  the dependant demand does not peg to available supplies of the component.

  • Background job not automatically poopulating Dependant Demand

    Hi Users,
    We've recently set up a POS & PA using the DP-BOM selection and characteristics, manually created PPM's and generated CVC's using the BOMS. All of this is set up fine in our SCM 7.0.
    The background job has created the forecasts for the ouptput products but NOT the input product.
    Now if I call up the parent material, and then choose to show the input products the dependant demand is generated. If I now return to the material with the dependant demand, it now shows the demand from the parent.
    Or, if the forecast is genereated interactively, then the dependant demand is poopulated.
    Is there an automated method to populate the dependant demand when using background jobs? I would like to think that we don't have to query every sales BOM parent in DP and drill into the input products to load the dependant demand?
    Please let me know if there is an easier way to do this as part of the background processing.
    Thanks

    Hi Andand,
    Thanks for your reply and sorry if my post is confusing.
    As far as the PPM with imputs A & B, output C - I have this relationship working and calcuclating demand in DP no problems.
    If I now add a new PPM combination inpput X, Y and output Z. Create the BOM CVC and TSO so its all set to go. Add to selection profiles and background jobs.
    Now, if I run the background job to create the forecast and this runs successfully. Now I check my products.
    Z has the forecast generated, X & Z have no dependant demand showing.
    The only way I've found that pushes the demand to X & Z is:
    - open product Z in demand planning and then choose the option to show input products from the header
    OR - from demand planning, select the univariate forecast to run interactively.
    My issue:
    The background job (if run alone) does not push the forecast on Z to X & Y.
    And if I show the input products or create forecast (as bove) the dependat demand is shown on X & Y.
    This is going to be a slow process if we have to do this everytime we run the backgound job.
    What am I missing when running the background job?

  • BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3 creating planned order from Restricted Stock

    Hi,
       We have a requirement where we need to programmatically replicate the Push Production functionality as in /SAPAPO/RRP3 transaction. We are using the BAPI - BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3 and it is working fine for conversion of planned orders and Process Orders to component planned/process orders and dependant demand for the parent material. The issue is when we are trying to convert a restricted stock to a planned order and dependant demand using the BAPI, we are getting a message "No valid source of supply could be found". Please let us know if anyone has a resolution to this issue or if any further details are required.

    Hi,
        Tlane is not a field name,I wanted to say Transportation Lane(T-Lane) exist or not in the system for that product-location combination.
    For the SOURCE_NAME field, it is clearly mentioned in the documentation of BAPI that,
    Selection of sources of supply (for example, PP/DS PPM)
    ORDER_END_DATE is used as standard as the selection time for the source of supply (in-house production). If ORDER_END_DATE is empty, the value from ORDER_START_DATE is used instead.
    If a different time should be used to select the source of supply, this can be set using the EXPLOSION_DATE field.
    If a date field is not specified for an order change, the date of the last explosion of this order is used for source of supply selection.
    The entries in the MASTER<...> fields also play a role for source determination. That is, possible sources of supply are searched for on the basis of product, location, quantity, and so on.
    For the selection of sources of supply, the setting from the product master for plan explosion is used.
    If several possible alternative sources of supply are found, the system chooses one source of supply as standard.
    However, if you want to select a specific source of supply that has been found, you can use the fields PLAN_NUMBER + PPM_NUMBER, PROD_VERSION, or SOURCE_NAME. Note that only one combination may be used; you cannot use both PLAN_NUMBER and PROD_VERSION at the same time because both are valid for different source of supply types.
    Please check with the functional consultant, in plan explosion field in product master what value they have maintained.
    Because BAPI will try to get the source of supply name on basis of that field which is mentioned in the documentation.

  • CTM and Dependent Demand purchase Requisitions

    Hello Gurus,
    We have a business situation where there are 2 plants which can produce a finished product from a single input product.  It is much less expensive for us to transport the finished product than the input product.  We want CTM to force the plant with the supply of input product to produce the product and send it if that plant has capacity - only transporting the input product to the demand plant if there is no capacity at the supply plant.
    Plant A   Demand 100 units of Product X
    Plant B  Supply of 100 units of Product Y which can be used to create Product O
    PPMs for creation of Product at both plants.
    Desired outcome:
    If Plant B has open capacity to create Product X prior to due date, Plant B creates Supply of Product X from Product Y and transports Product X.
    If Plant B does not have open capacity to create Product X prior to due date, Plant B sends Product Y to Plant A which creates Product X.
    The supply may be at Plant A or Plant B so the scenario must be able to work in either direction.
    Currently, when CTM runs, it see the demand at Plant B and creates a planned order there, creating a purchase Requisition for the dependent demand.
    Is there a solution for this?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Sarah

    I have done some further testing of the system and have found that I can further clarify my question.
    consider 3 production plants situated roughly in a line with PLANTA located 1000 KM east of PLANTB and PLANTB located 500 KM east of PLANTC.  Because PLANTC is nearer to PLANTB, the transportation lane procurement priority for PLANTC to PLANTB is lower than PLANTA to PLANTB (making PLANTC the first to be considered at a procurement source for PLANTB)
    We have demand for a finished product at PLANTB.  We can create the finished material at PLANTA or PLANTC.  PLANTA has the input material in stock for creating the finished material.
    When CTM makes its planning run, it looks at the PLANTB demand and determines that PLANTC is the correct procurement source for the finished material.  It looks for the finished material at PLANTC and can't find it, so it creates a Planned Order to create the finished material.  In order to do that, it pulls dependent demand from PLANTA. 
    The result is that we are moving input material west 1500 KM to PLANTC and then moving the finished material east 500 KM to PLANTB.
    We have set our priority for moving input material very high, so it should be the last resort to move.
    It appears that CTM is looking at the priority of the finished material only when determining procurement source.  Is there any setting I can make to the system so that it will look at both the dependent demand priority and the finished material priority when determining procurement source?
    Alternately, is there a way to mark the ATP group EB as not being available during a specific CTM run (without removing the dependent material from the TLANE)?
    Ideallly, we'd like to be able to move the dependent material to another plant if the capacity at the plant it is currently in is too full.
    thanks in advance for any advice,
    Sarah

  • Dependent Demand not genarated

    Hi Experts,
    My client product structure starts from 1*****, 2***** and so on to 7****** that is we have 6 level BOM. Final FG is 1*** and 7*** is raw material. 1 will be procured from vendor1 by providing component 2 to vendor1. 2 will be procured from vendor 2 by providing component3 to vendor2 and so on. 7*** material is a standard procurement. So we are implementing sub-con scenario in SNP using SCM 7.0. So we created work centers and PPMs at sub-con locations (location type 1011 as only one product from one plant will procure from sub-con locations).  
    Could any one confirm the following master data settings I made
    1) Both FG and Components procurement type will be 'F' (External procurement) at plant. Where as at sub-con locations FG will be 'E' (In-house) and component will be 'F'.
    2) Transportation lane with sub-contracting defined for finished good between sub-con location to plant. Transportation lane between plant to the same sub-con location defined for the component with sub-contracting (not sure whether it should sub-contracting or standard procurement in the transportation lane) as we are using PPM
    With those settings I ran CTM and no PRs are generated. Where as when I ran SNP01 I got PRs only one 1 series and I didnt seen any dependent demand. I ran low-level code before running SNP01.
    Could any one guide me to get the PRs through CTM.
    Thanks,
    Naveen

    Hi Experts,
    For the master-data set-up in SNP, I got the following low level codes.
    SNP Low Level Code     Material     Location

  • Dependent demand in CTM

    Hi :
    I have a problem when i am creating a demand for FG , dependent demand for component is not getting generated .
    I checked following :
    PPM exist
    Master data selection is right
    Please suggest what else can be the reason .
    Dependent demand is being generated for one other product using same profile

    Hi,
    Assuming that planned order for finished good is getting created , would liekt o suggest ...
    1) Check with heuristic and also with infinite CTM if dependent demand is getting generated.If yes then no major problem with master data set up.
    2) Also go for  "Check CTM Master  Data" in CTM  profile. You may get some clue there. Its  available in Edit option in CTM profile.

  • BAPI- To Pick DEpendent Demand  in APO

    Hi All,

    regards
    Ahasan

    Dear Ashok
    Your requirement can be met using DP BOM. I am not sure about parent child CVC's , but DP - BOM should work.
    You need to first create and activate PPM/ PDS for DP with usage D (BOM Demand Planning).
    Assign it to model and create a  planning object structure with DP BOM relevant.
    Create the master and CVC based on MPOS
    Create a PA with 2 different KF( one for finished product, another for dependent BOM). Initilize the PA and version.
    Config the forecast settings for PA.

  • Dependent Demand Distribution

    Dear PPDS experts,
    I am facing problem with distribution key . I have updated the Distribution key GLEI (Equal distribution) in Production version and the same has been updated in the BOM component. When I run product Heuristics in the PPDS system is creating one planned order in APO and Respective dependent demand. When that Planned order moved to ECC system, because of the Distribution key it is splitting the order quantity in the planned order duration equally, but it is not splitting the dependent demand of the Component.
    I would like to know is there any prerequisites/ settings for the component to the dependent demand split. Your suggestions are highly appreciated.
    Regards

  • Planning Dependent Demand with Phantom Strategy (59)

    Hi
    We would like to maintain forecasts at a Phantom material level and consume this forecast based on dependent demand (Planning Strategy 59 in ECC and an equivalent custom strategy in APO). This works in ECC MRP, but does not appear to work in APO CTM.
    For example - Phantom Material P1 has a forecast. MRP and CTM behave the same, exploding this demand and planning for components. Now, a Sales Order comes in for A1 which is a parent of P1. MRP creates planned order for A1 and dependent demand for P1 which is set to consume forecast (based on the planning strategy 59). CTM also creates a planned order for A1and directly creates dependent demand for components of P1 but does not create dependent demand for P1 itself. Due to this, there is no forecast consumption of P1 leading to doubling of demand.
    Any suggestions how to get Dependent Demand to be created for Phantom materials (so that CTM behaves similar to strategy 59 in ECC MRP) ?
    Thanks
    Rishi Menon

    Hello Rishi,
    Hope you are doing well.
    Have you check the atp check mode. What value are you maintaining on check mode? What requirement type and requirement class are configured in ECC? There should be a class in ECC for Phentom Assembly and see if that is configured.
    Hope this helps.

  • Dependent demand on non-working days

    Hi Experts,
    Let me explain our scenario:
    1) We have a factory that is 90% closed for a period of time (i.e. August) for production (10% of the work centers are still working)
    2) Same factory is 100% closed for receptions.
    We have setup the system in the following calendars:
    1) Z1 --> closed on august
    2) Z2 --> opened on august
    And assigned them in the following way:
    1) Location calendar --> Z1 (we avoid purchase requisitions creation for roh's and pack's)
    2) Work centers that will stop --> Z1 (we avoid planned orders creation in these way)
    3) Work centers that will still work --> Z2 (as the work center calendar is more restrictive than location calendar)
    With this setting behavior is nearly the one we need, but we have the following problem:
    Once a planned order is created on, for example 22nd August in a working work center system is doing this:
    Basic end date: 22nd August
    Then, order is scheduled and system calculated production dated and basic start date in the following date:
    Basic end date: 01st September (first working date in Z1,  the one in the location)
    Basic start date: 31st July (last working day in Z1 calendar, the one in the location)
    Production start date: 22nd August
    Production en date: 22nd August
    So is seems that the behavior is...production dates based on work center calendar, basic dates based on location calendar.
    The problem of this is that "dependent demand" for all the components of these orders are based on "basic start dates"...which is incorrect; "dependent demand" should be placed wherever the production starts...
    Any suggestion?
    Thanks in advance,
    Raü

    Dear,
    Yes you can do this with scheduling parameter go to OPU5 and OPU3 here define Adjust date= Adjust date to operation start.
    One more thing I would like to tell you that you have no need to create to calendar you can do this with same factory calander.
    If you don't work on that particular period define work center available capacity as zero  and other day so you need to create two shift sequence in OP4A one with working Hr and another withiout working hrs.
    Assign it to your  work center with valid date. Meas up to 22 Aug on shift sequence and from 22 August another shift sequence.
    And you knows that system do the scheduling as per available capacity.
    Hope it will help you. Please try and come back.

  • Dependent demand requirements distributed in days

    Dear experts,
    Planned Orders created by the PPDS planning are usually between 2 to 4 days long, normally longer than one day. For some components we  would need to see the requirements distributed proportionally in days instead of receiving the total depend demand quantity just before the beginning of the order. Reason for that is because suppliers are geographically very close so these components are ordered in daily basis and also, these components are actually being continuously issued to the mixing tank.
    P.e:
    Planned Order = 2000 PC --> Availab.Date = 4th July 12:00 am (starts 2nd July 12:00)
    Component Requirements = 2000 PC -- total quantity required at the beginning of the order --> 2nd July 12:00
    The business requirement is to have the requirements distributed proportionally by days:
    2nd July --> 500 PC (Order is half of the half)
    3rd July --> 1000 PC (Order runs the whole day)
    4th July --> 500 PC (Order runs half a day)
    I have tested with the Distribution Key assigned into the Production Version and also to the components. I have tried distribution with both distribution function: equal distribution and equal portions (alternatives dispatch at the start and end date do not work for my requirement), and then also the distribution type according to discrete points. Nevertheless I only get continual consumption which is not bad but with regard to the components dependent demand dates it is not what I need, the entire quantity is at the start of the operation to which components are assigned.
    Any experience with this kind of requirement?
    Thanks for your advice
    Regards
    Carlos
    Edited by: carlos tur ferrer on Jun 16, 2010 8:12 AM

    Hi Santosh,
    Thanks for the answer. I have been using distribution key GLEI and as you mentioned, I got 3 lines in the Stock/Req List for the finish good (1000 PCs per day) in R/3 and therefore I got 3 dependent requirements in R/3. However, in APO I get only a planned order, 3 days lenght, so there is only one dependent demand for the component which requirement date is just before the beginning of the planned order. Then, material planners see the total demand for the order in one day even though the order takes 3 days and the total quantity is not needed at the beginning.
    This is have I did:
    -GLEI assigned to the component and to the Production Version
    -Transfer the PDS
    -I have the C for Continual Consumption assigned to the finish article and also for the components the PDS.
    -I ran Planning of Standard Lots considering Continous I/O (however in R/3 I get the 3 lineas even creating the order manually or with the  normal planning with standard lots.
    In APO, I dont see any distribution of the quantity in the planned order,and neither in the dependent demand. I get a 3000 PC planned with availability day one day (one line) and the same for the dependent demand, one line. What I can see on the DSPB, chart product stock, is that the component is being required continuously and the planned order quantity is growing also gradually.
    Am I missing something? It must be possible in APO also!
    Thanks again

  • Dependent Demand Planning of commponents

    Hi
    Following is the BOM structure -
    F (Finished Good) -
    > S1 (1st Intermediate) -
    > S2 (2st Intermediate) -
    > R (Raw Material)
    I am trying to plan the finished good (F) in an external system (like say xLPO / ECC) and transfer the dependent demand of the S1 thus created to APO and plan the balance materials S1, S2 and R in APO. Can this be done. I have tried it but it does not seem to work.
    Dependent demand of S1 is net getting transferred.
    Regards
    Deepak Joshi

    How have you tried to plan for S1 in APO? Moreover standard APO design says F to be planned in APO. If F is planned in APO then S1 / S2 and R are NOT to be planned in APO as you plan for Header product (and the important components) in APO not the other way round.
    Having said that you can get demand of S1 from the external system (not ECC) to APO BW and load that data in Demand keyfigure. If you are using Planning with BOM (DP-BOM functionality) then assig this keyfigure suitably to the dependent demand keyfigure.
    Otherwise this demand of S1 when released to SNP/PPDS should explode to S2 dependent requirements based on the SNP or PPDS PDS.
    Hope this helps,

  • Can't create multiple dependent LOVs from the same bind variable

    Hi all,
    I'm having difficulty creating multiple dependent LOVs from queries based on the same bind variable in my JSF application (JDev 10.1.3.1). Basically I have a static LOV in a af:selectOneChoice component from which users select a value which then becomes the bind variable value for two separate queries that generate two different dependent LOV. Having developed the code along the lines of Steve Muench 's blog (http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/2006/04/03.html#a685), the first dependent LOV works really well. The first dynamic LOV gets refreshed whenever the list from the static LOV changes, and I can execute other queries based on the values selected.
    The problem arises when I want to create the second dynamic/dependent LOV that has the same bind variable based on the same selected value from the static LOV. Here I would also like the functionality whereby the second dynamic LOV is also refreshed after the selected value in the static LOV changes. Thinking that all I had to do was replicate the methodology used in creating the first dependent LOV, I created the second iterator, invokeAction and other binding components in the PageDef. The executable section now looks like the following:
    <iterator id="SelectStaticQueryViewObjIterator"
                  Binds="SelectStaticQueryViewObj" RangeSize="-1"
                  DataControl="DMSApplicationModule1DataControl"/>
    <invokeAction id="refreshDynamicQuery1BindParameter"
                  Binds="ExecuteWithParams1" Refresh="prepareModel"
                  RefreshCondition="#{empty requestScope.VariableChanged}"/>
    <iterator id="SelectDynamicQuery1ViewObjIterator"
                  Binds="SelectDynamicQuery1ViewObj" RangeSize="-1"
                  DataControl="DMSApplicationModule1DataControl"/>
    <invokeAction id="refreshDynamicQuery2BindParameter"
                  Binds="ExecuteWithParams2" Refresh="prepareModel"
                  RefreshCondition="#{empty requestScope.VariableChanged}"/>
    <iterator id="SelectDynamicQuery2ViewObjIterator"
                  Binds="SelectDynamicQuery2ViewObj" RangeSize="-1"
                  DataControl="DMSApplicationModule1DataControl"/>I now have a problem whereby everytime I change the value of the static LOV, multiple HTML components for the same ADF component are being generated (the LOVs are refreshed via PPR). The surprising thing is that this duplicating behaviour applies to all ADF components listed after the first dynamic LOV in the *.jspx source. For example, I have a <af:outputText="Test Text"/> component created after the first dynamic LOV. Each time the value in the static LOV changes, a duplicate HTML component is created. This also applies to the 'related' second dynamic LOV which is bound to a af:selectOneChoice component - multiple dropdown lists are created. I've checked with the browser's Page Source and there are actually multiple html components being generated with their own unique ADF-generated IDs. I've tried all different options for the Referesh and RefreshCondition attibutes in the second invokeAction element but nothing seems to eliminate this issue.
    Any suggestions about how I might create multiple dependent LOVs from the same bind variable that get refreshed when the selected value changes would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi all,
    Just updating the thread on how I've overcome this issue. As it stood the manner in which I was trying to solve my use case, as described above, was creating an absolute mess. Then with a blank sheet of paper I quickly realised that a much simpler solution would be to create a whole series of master-detail VOs and build my components around them. Thankfully I haven't had any issues going down this path as yet.
