BOP Run

Hi,
We have a running BOP system in place. Now we have changed the loading time under shipping point in ECC, What change needs to be done for this to be considered in BOP runs?
Regards,
Ujjal

Under the Parameters Check tab of BOP, you have the option of doing a cancel confirmation. The list though can point to a variant list and hence would need to be pre-populated with appropriate values. If you want to sophisticate this, write a wrapper program that tests for the condition and populates the TVARVC list (table TVARVC) that you can access through the variant definition.

Error BOP run for STO in SCM2007 - ECC scenario

Hi,
We are taking BOP run for STO in SCM 2007 environment. The BOP results are showing correct dates as per the availability at supplying plant. But this date is not getting updated in product view (we are running BOP in update mode and not simulation mode). Have you faced this issue?
Best regards,
Vaibhav

Any ideas on this?
In the transfer order scenario, we want the system automatically generate inbound DN for the receiver plant after the outbound DN is posted for the sender plant. Can we implement this function in R3 system?

Delivery date differs in the VETVG table after the BOP run.

Hi,
I have created a STO with multiple line items with multiple delivery dates in the same STO. We have APO also
E.G. 1st and 3rd line item have todays delivery date(01.03.12) and 2nd and 4th line item have 05.03.12.
for the 1st and 3rd line item the system have material availability and we get the confirmed committed quantity from the APO system and got deliverd successfully.
for the 2nd and 4th line item there is no stock in R/3 and APO sytem, and we get the committed quantity as 12/31/9999, once the material is available, BOP run happens it gives committed date in the STO delivery schedule, we found the committed date between EKET table and VETVG table is different when we try to do it for the future date, i want to understand how the committed date arrived in the VETVG table and why it is differing from the EKET table, for the 1st and 3rd line item, the committed date is same in both the table, plese advise.
Regards,
Rajesh

Hi
You can change the dates with userexits if you have specific requirements. Please, see these notes:
SAP Note 414484 - VL10: Delivery creation date all up to today (user exit)
SAP Note 198137 - VL10: Customer-specific enhancements / user exits
If you have any kind of 'accident' while you are trying solutions with records in table VETVG, see SAP Note 61148 - VL04 VL02 AME807 AME815: Insert to table VETVG.
I hope this helps you

RBA STO is not correlated during BOP RUN

Hi all,
We are facing a problem with delivery groups correlation during BOP when one of the items of the delivery group is confirmed using an STO created by RBATP.
For example, let's make a simple case
Product A,B and C are part of the same delivery group.
10 units of both products are requested.
Product A is confirmed in full using an STO from another plant created using a Rule
Product B is confirmed partially (say 5 units)
Product C is confirmed partially (say 4 units)
In BOP filter we have added only products A and B and checked "Correlation" parameter, so product C is added and correlated to the other two. We do not want that an ATP check be done during BOP for product C, so "Check Correlation Group" is not checked.
After running BOP, products B and C are properly correlated. While product A is not correlated an is confirmed for the full quantity.
It looks like during BOP, the ATP check is done as first step (and in the case of product A an ATP tree is created) and afterwards quantities and dates are correlated, but this correlation is not capable to modify the ATP tree.
Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation
Pablo

Hello Michael,
Yes I have already checked this note. Please note that as long as the activity in the rule is to create an STO no subposition should be created in Sales Order, so this note does not apply to my case.
On the other hand it is very interesting and helpful this part of your answer
Michael Thinschmidt wrote:
> Yes indeed quantity correlation should not work at STO level as it is not implemented in the coding. Just the date correlation should work.
Could you please refer me to any note or document where it is explained this situation. I have checked and rechecked notes and help and I have not find any hint a reason for this behavior.
Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation

BOP Monitor missing Sales Orders, Displays only STOs

Hi,
We have an issue with a back order processing monitor screen. BOP Monitor displays both SO and STO immediately after the BOP run but wipes out the SO from display after few hours. I guess the SOs have been deleted from buffer and so we don't see them on monitor screen.
We have no functional issues as SO have been processed and confirmed but only the monitor screen misses SO. How does the buffer removes only SO? Do we have any programs to change the buffer? Much appreciate your clues here.
Thanks

Hi Asokan,
BOP Monitor is a dymanic display unlike SM37 background jobs log. So, if you see the Monitor immediately after BOP run, it would show you the results of BOP. However, if you see after some hours, the display will show you dynamic situation of your BOP result elements i.e. situation of schedule lines at that moment.
If you have any program in R3 that updates sales orders, then there is possibility that the sales order schedule lines are updated and no longer available for display.
Please check whether you get any messages in BOP Monitor. Also, for reference to BOP runs, please refer BOP_RESULT instead of Monitor. This report is static and will show you situation before BOP and after BOP.

Bipin

Extraction of Purchase Order from BOP background Worklist

Hi to all,
have you got any idea on how to have on the BOP worklist the purchase order or other categories that have been taken in consideration during the background job?
Are notes 376773 and 377186 the right once?
Thanks
Maria

Hi Prasad,
when the Batch BOP runs it gives us a worklist where you can see how the availability of a sales order has changed (in terms of date). To reach this result the BOP takes in consideration the purch orders, the stock available, the order priority...etc.. but the worklist does not give information of what purch order has taken to rischedule the sales order.
We would like to see it.. so I suppose that we have to use user exits or something similar.. The notes I reported I suppose that are helpful..
Do you agree? Have you got any other advice to give me?
Thanks in advance
Maria

BOP Filter

Hi,
There is a requirement where we want to run manual Ad-Hoc BOP by sales order,creation date range,material and plant so that it will pick only the particular selected orders.
But we found that though it picked particular sales order but it filter from total backlogs which exists for that particular material and plant combination, and filtering the selected orders from the whole list actually took maximum portion of BOP run time.
I need help whether there is any way where BOP can picked the input sales orders only respect to particular material and plant combination.
I am giving two scenario which I faced:
1. Total backlog:53k
Sales order: 5 k
Run time:2.5 k
2. Total backlog:10k
Sales order: 5 k
Run time:45 mins
Thanks,
Dipankar

Dipankar,
I have no idea how BOP works technically. Logically, though, you cannot select a specific subset of records from a database without scanning the entire database. So, I don't think your request is possible. How would the program know that all matching records had been retreived without first going through the entire possible list?
The issue is the speed of the scan. In databases, if you select via a key or an index, the DBM has already pre-scanned the database, and knows the location of the records you seek. It can therefore find them quickly. I suspect that one or more of the 'reads' in your BOP program is not indexed, but again, I don't know how BOP works technically.
It might not hurt to regenerate these BOP programs. Try /SAPAPO/BOPC_GENER
If this doesn't help, Go to your DBA and ask him to analyze your BOP's performance. He can advise you of what you can do to improve it.
Another option might be just to use interactive BOP. /SAPAPO/BOPI
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance,

BOP results for credit blocked customer orders

Hello all,
We are facing an issue with BOP. We use the backorder processing in order to confirm the customer orders quantity. When the customer order has a credit block status, the quantity is apparently confirmed in result work list (immediately comes after BOP run) and using transaction /SAPAPO/BOP_RESULT, but in table /SAPAPO/BOPRESLT the fields CNFQTY and NEWCNFQTY are empty.
Is it possible to change this behavior?
Thaks in advance.
Regards,
Januario Faria

Hello All,
My issue was solved using the suggestion below posted on the thread - Sales Order Credit Status Block with Schedule Line ATP Confirmed Quantity .
We modified this SD configuration and the quantity has to be confirmed to sales orders with credit block using BOP processing.
Thanks to all.
Bests regards.

[Sales Order Credit Status Block with Schedule Line ATP Confirmed Quantity;
Hi ,
Please go to Transfer of requirements-->maintain requirements for transfer of requirements and remove the 101 Routine number so that when credit block on order still the quantity is confirmed to sales order. Because of this Routine it is removing the reservation while in credit block.
I have tested it and it is working. I have similar scenario and it is working fine.

Wrong Availability check for Header Item in Sales BOM after BOP

Hi Guys
I am stuck with a very weird problem. Request your advice:
I have a Sales BOM with one item Lets header is 'A' and Item 'B'. On creation of Sales Order ATP check is performed and both the line items (with A and B) the committed qty and committed date.
Now when BOP runs, it deletes the allocation of A and changes it to '0'
Details:
'A' is a non stockable product
Req:
1. I am not sure whether I should include A in BOP selection, however even running it only with B it deletes the allocation of A and the committed qty changes to '0'
Can you please suggest the solution or standard way of running BOP for Sales BOM
Thanks in advance
-Rahul

Thanks for writing in Prasun
Yes I created a new Filter type however when you add a STO category and then you change the fields to include item category you will get the same error. I am also in V 5.0 of SCM
Normally we use SAP_NetChange filter type. So is it possible to restrict using item category for this filter some how!
On the otherhand I also wonder these should not ATP relevant as the header item is non stockable item! And I guess there should some catch to exclude if not item category as you mentioned!
So the order categories included are:
Customer Inquiry
Customer quotation
Sales Order
SD Scheduling Agreement
SD Scheduling agreement w/external
Contract
Delivery w/io charge
Independent requriement
Release from customer in plant
STO
Deplyometn release
TLB release for purc ord
Fields
Product
location
distribution centrer
MRP area
product Hierarchy
Location hierarchy
supplier location
These are std filter type and I cant be modified.. however we restrict our filter to location only!
Kindly advice!
Thanks in advance

How to reschedule STOs in BOP jobs in APO?

Dear Friends,
We have a problem in APO BOP .
While running BOP, the STOS are not rescheduled. Upon checking the BOP result, the STOs are displayed with Status 'Unchecked'. and dates are not altered, even though the availability situation has changed.
I would like to know, what needs to be done to reschedule STOs in BOP run?
PS:
1. I have selected the STOs (BI) in the BOP filter criteria.
2. My Sort profile contains the following fields with the priorities indicated on right side.
ERTMS     Created on                          3
LFTMS     Delivery Date/Time     7
LIFPRIO     Delivery Priority     1
ORDSTARTTIM     Start Time     5
WMENG     Requested quantity     9
3. We are using SCM 7.0 with ECC 6.
Regards
Srinath Sastry

Hi Srinath,
You can check your selection in Confirmation situation Tab in BOP Filter and make changes so that STOs can able to reschedule.
Thanks,

Custom fields appended in /SAPAPO/MM_DOC table gets cleared after BOP

Hi,
I appended few fields in /SAPAPO/MM_DOC table for STO's. I was able to populate it from ECC.
But once the BOP job has run all these custom fields are getting cleared.
Can someone tell me how to fix this.
Thanks
Kranthi

Hi Vaibhav,
Some of the custom fields has been added to /SAPAPO/MM_DOC table in SCM to populate data of STO's in ECC.
These custom fields will be updated using BADI's in SCM.
When the Back Order Processing(BOP) runs on SCM for these STO's these fields whatever has been updated from ECC are cleared.
How can I stop clearing these custom fields.
Can I use any exits or BADI's which can update these fields during BOP.
Regards,
Kranthi

GATP - Issue with substitution rules with validity dates

Hi,
We are using GATP with RBA. Our condition table has plant as a field.
We are planning to have a substitution procedure (rules) defined at plant level.
Our rule control for product substitution list is "Start from top of list"
The issue we are facing is explained below.
The first item in the substitution procedure (rule) cannot have validity dates.
So it will always be balnk. And validity dates can be maintained for other items in the procedure (rule).
What happens in our scenario is when there is a requirement on an item in the substitution procedure (rule) which has a validity date, the first item in the procedure (which can never have validity dates) is never considerd for substituions.
If I remove the validity dates, then the first item in the procedure (rule) is considered for substitutions.
We find this strange and against our business requirement. We want the first item in the procedure (rule) to be considered for substitution ireespective of the validity date for the requested product.
It would be great if you could suggest a method to achieve this.
Thanks & regards,
Arvind.S

Hi Mohan,
Thanks for the response.
We are using back order processing (BOP) for allocation.
We observed that the first item was not getting considered for substitution in the BOP results and also in product view after the BOP run. No stock of that item was allocated for the order taken up in the BOP run.
However, we tried rule evaluation also. It shows the first item also, but in actual allocation the issue exists.
We are not using "start immediately" in check instructions.
Thanks & regards,
Ashok

ATP allocation impact on Backorder processing

HI All,
We have implemented Product allocation for one of our project. When we were trying to run back order processing we are not getting the desired result.
We have created allocation plan for one of the customer and maintined allocation qty as 50 pcs.
Then we created a sales order for the same customer with 100 pcs. At the time sales order creation the stock was zero in that plant.
Then we posted 100 pcs of that material in to stock. When we run back order processing as per the functionality only 50pcs of the stock should get assigned to that particualr sales order since we have maintined 50 pcs as the allocation.
But when we run the actual BOP using V_V2 not even a single piece is getting assigned the that order.
then we tried to make below changes and executed BOP.
1.We changed the sales order qty to 50 insted of 100. Then executed the BOP then 50 pcs are getting confirmed to sales order.
Can any one tell why it is not confirming when the order qty was more than allocation qty?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,Babs

sai and Tibor,
Thank you both very much for your prompt replies. It does seem logical to me that backorder processing should execute the same rules-based ATP processes as the original check when creating the sales order. Unfortunately it's not working as we expect during our testing.
I have two issues...
First, if a sales order has no quantity confirmed, then backorder processing does not see that sales order at all. The "Backorder Processing Worklist" transaction shows the sales order but when executing "Batch Backorder Processing" the sales order is not included in the output. I've turned on the ATP Application Log and I see this error in the log...
Item IJv{EkpP06m000002Wfr8G (status I) was not found in the items
Message no. /SAPAPO/ATPLOG_BOP025
The item number corresponds to values that I see in the ATP Tree Structure after the BOP run. Has anyone seen this type of problem before?
The second issue is related to sales orders that DO have confirmed quantity. Backorder processing will handle those orders but only seems to run basic ATP checks. It does not appear to execute the rules-based ATP check, even with the Rules Eval (Again) flag set. For example, we have a rule set up for location determination that substitutes plants in the event of a shortage. When we execute the backorder processing, the ATP Application Log shows that it's finding the correct rule but it doesn't seem that the rule is actually being executed. The only stock that is confirmed is the stock in the ordering plant. The system doesn't confirm any of the available stock in the other plants to the sales order in backorder processing.
Has anyone seen this behavior? Do we need to have a second set of check instructions for business event BO (backorder processing)? Can you suggest any other configuration that we might need to check?
Thanks again for your thoughtful responses.
