Capacity Consumption in SNP Capacity Planning Book

Hi,
Can someone let me know how the Capacity Consumption KF(9ACACON)  is calculated in the SNP Capacity Planning Book.
No macor is associated with the KF. But when i load the data in specific to a resource it gives me some value in the Capacity Consumption KF.
Is there any option to identify the calculation logic of this KF ?
Regards
BVN

Hi
There is no formula as such, it depends on the master data settings in your resource. In transaction /sapapo/res01 you can display the Capacity but how exactly depends on what type of resource you are using and how the capacity is calculated, basically you can have:
Time-Continuous capacity
PP/DS Bucket Capacity
SNP Bucket Capacity
And they can also have different values!
For the SNP View it should be using the SNP Bucket Capacity, so if you click on this tab in your resource master data it should have a field "Bucket Definition" which can either be from Continuos Capacity or be maintained separately. If you click the button "Bucket Capacity" it should show you the current values you have.
If it is from Cont Capacity then click that tab and see the start, end and break times there.
To add a little confusion, you may also have several variants of capacity, the active variant is on the General Data tab, this is the capacity variant that should show up as standard capacity in your planning book.
There is more to it all than this but hopefully that should help answer your qeustion.

  • Production during resource downtime in SNP Distribution Planning Book

    Hi Guys,
    We are in SCM7.0. Have got PPDS along with SNP and DP. SNP Planned orders are converted to Production orders and are capacity planned in the PPDS planning board.
    When a production order gets its partial confirmation in ECC then the Production (Confirmed) KeyFigure in the SNP Distribution planning book doesnot considers the resource downtimes / weekends. This results in receipts during downtime/weekends in day bucket in the SNP planning book.
    Before partial confirmation, the scheduled production orders (in PPDS) is reflected correctly in the day bucket considering the downtimes / weekends.
    Any suggestion on relevant Notes / Settings.
    Thanks
    Srini

    Hi,
    Ok, I understand the issue completely now.
    But did you right click on the bucket with downtime in SNP planning book, choose diaply details and see the order details?.
    After doing this you can check in product view and MD04 to check if the order is actually open in this period.
    If it not open in the period corresponding to the bucket in which it is displayed in planning book and product view and MD04 are fine, Please check this and update, maybe other experts could help.
    If you have a really good abapper, you could also debug the planning book load or raise an OSS to be safe.

  • Issue in capturing in transit in SNP interactive planning book

    Hi,
    We are facing issue in capturing in trasit in SNP interactive planning book.
    We are using standard planning area ( 9ASNP02) on which we have build up planning book which is copy of standard planning book. Earlier standard planning area was containing key figure 9AITRAN(in transit)attached to category group (IT1) which contained categories AH, EI.
    As intransit was coming under category CS we added category in category group IT1. After adding it the intransit is not visble in planning book in key figure in transit but when we checking details of cell the value is present with start and end date as 01.01.1970 where as in RRP3 view intransit is present under current date.
    Before additing category CS in IT1 group the intransit was not coming but now after adding category also the in transit is not visible in cell but present in detail view with wrong dates.
    Regards,
    Vrushali.

    HI,
    Stock in transit keyfigure will display only EI orders (incase of VMI
    scenario) and AH orders (if you create inbound delivery).
    If you integrate stock,CS orders only will be available in /sapapo/RRP3.
    The root of the problem is in the setting from Intransit key figure:
    from a planning area management point of view it reflects
    the setting used in the standard SNP planning area  but the customizing
    of the category group used there is different from the one used in
    standard systems.
    Actually you added category CS there. But category CS has a atp category
    type 0, which means stocks actually. In the SNP planning books by design
    stocks are read separately from other orders because  have to be
    considered in the ATD computation.
    Therefore if you need to read orders with category CS you should
    consider it in the category group assigned to the ATD receipts key
    figure and to the stock key figure.
    This customizing could be applied at the planning area level, as
    described above or at the master location level, SNP tab.
    In this case you can specify there the category groups which have to be
    used in order to consider stocks, ATD receipts and ATD issues about all
    products assigned to the used master location. Please refer to the
    related F1 helps in order to get more information about.
    You can get more information at note 591310.

  • Capacity Consumption in SNP planning book

    Hello,
    Can anyone explain what drives the calculation of capacity consumption KF in the planning book.
    Here is the example.
    1) I have a Resource whose SNP bucket capacity of 90,000/Hr = 450000/Wk
    2) I created a PP/DS PPM for one product from ECC and then converted it to a SNP PPM
    3) There was no resource assignment in the SNP PPM. I then manaully assigned the resource (in step 1) to the PPM.
    4) The material consumption on the SNP PPM is 37 per HR
    5) The variable bucket consumption on the resource within the SNP PPM is 1 per hr.
    Now I created a planned order of 4440 for the finished product in the SNP planning book manually (behind the scenes the heuristic run was carried out obviously).
    On my capacity view, the values i see are:
    Available capacity  = 450000/Week (which is clear since its 90,000 * 5 days/week)
    Capacity Conusmption = 6845
    Resource capacity level in % = 1.521 (which is 6845/450000 * 100).
    The only question is how is the Capacity Conusmption value populated by a value of 6845?
    Please provide me your input gurus.
    Thx,
    Vishy
    The idea is to create oneresource and assign it to multiple SNP PPMs so that the capacity situation on this resource for various products could be analysed.)

  • Default set of KF in Planning Book?

    Hi,
    I am currently working on 'slimming' down the SNP Planning Books being used by us. Basically trying to remove KFs/Macros not relevant to us.
    In doing so basically I am trying to make separate books for Production Planning and Capacity Planning. So my SNP Production Planning Book just has the 'Supply Network Planning' indicator ticked.
    When I try to remove the KFs not relevant to me (eg: Capacity Planning, TLB, Deployment) and complete the Planning Book and save...when I get back to the design I see that these KFs are back.
    Is there a 'Necessary' set of KFs which you HAVE to use when designing? Is there any way I can only use the KFs that are required by me?
    We are on SCM 5.0.
    Kindly suggest.
    Regards,
    Abhi

    Dear Abhishek Sharma
    While deleting the KF from Planning book(KF tab next to planning book tab), the system deletes all the KF in the planning book and you need to choose the necessary KF which you would require from the planning area.
    You would be able to view the the KF which are currently in the planning book and can choose the required KF for the data view. Further while deleting the KF from the data view, the system pops up a message "  Row KF from macro definition book and data view deleted". You can go ahead by saving it.

  • SNP Planning Book not showing Bucket Capacity

    Hi,
    I have a process in which for some materials subcontracting is required and this subcontractors are managed under SNP. We define the capacity of subcontractor in numbers. Bucket Capacity is defined in the Master Data of Resource of this subcontractors and it is not getting viewed in the planning book.
    Can some one help me why it is not in Planning Book.

    Hi,
    Please run the planning area consistancy check and try the same with SNP planning book.Also check the live cahe version of the resource.Ignore if you already have done all these steps.
    Also check the UOM of the bucket resource and the planning area UoM.
    Hope this can help.

  • Meaning of CONDET key figure in standard 9ASNP94 APO SNP planning book

    I am trying to clarify the use and meaning of the CONDET (capacity consumption details) key figure in the SAP standard SNP planning book 9ASNP94.
    Any advice appreciated...

    Hi  Frank,
    This indeed is practical requirement wih no simple solution ( at least we  did not find).
    We created a background job for deletion of the stocks ( which were updated through IDOCs like your situation) at specific periodicity. The jobs were made as per planners with specific variants and when planner would like to delete the stocks, the job will be run.
    Another option could to be copy the standard program /SAPAPO/RLCDELETE to a module program and check validation at the input screen, before calling the deletion program.

  • How can you block production for a specific product in SNP planning book

    Hi All,
    Looking for a way to manually indicate a decision to prevent production in a specific cell for a product in the SNP planning book utilizing the supply planning and capacity leveling heuristics.  For this requirement the resource would have available capacity during that time period.  It also could plan other products in that time period.  The requirement is for a planner to manually go into the planning book to somehow indicate that the heuristic should not consider that time period as available for a specific product, while still leaving the resource available for other products.
    Has anyone run into this before?  Any experience on how to stop a heurisitc from considering a specific time bucket  for a specific product as available for orders?
    Thanks
    -Mike

    Hello Mike,
    I haven't tried it yet myself but I kow that there is the option in the Planning Book to manually fix several periods for a specific location product. This will prevent the heuristic from planning these periods for the specified product. For details please have a look in the Online Help for SNP under key word "Order Fixing".

  • How to go about capacity planning for storage ?

    Hi Experts,
    How to go about Capacity Planning? For  instance if clients wants to upgrade to new server and new storage and asks us how much additional storage do you need for next 5 years, how can calculate the amount of storage.
    I don't have any baseline info about the server of past years. Where can I start and any scripts you guys use for doing capacity planning?
    Appreciate your help.
    Thank you.

    Dear ,
    To answer the question for Capacity requirement planning on sales order I would say that MRP does  only materials planning based on demand and reciept  but never does Capacity Requirement Plannig .MRP generates Planned Order  and susequently , production order can be genreted and farther you can carry out capacity requirement planning based on the work cente available capacity , requirement and load for those MTO orders .
    But there are SAP business suit like APO-SNP APO PPDS which carriy our details scheduleing and caapcity check based on the demand situation : Sales Order ,Independent Order  and does capcaity vaialbality chek for those demands while planning .
    Now , here is the answer of your question :
    1) Can Capacities are Scheduled as per priority given in SO automatically. : Not possible  through  SAP MRP but in APO-PPDS, APO-SNP-CTM , Herustic model .
    2) Can revised availability dates will be reflected in SO. : It can be reflected as per the ATP chekc , Replishmenet Lead  Time and re-scheduling horizon maintained in OPPQ-Carry all overall plant parametres.
    3) Which reports will be useful for understanding consolidated availability date of material for given sales order/s. : You can check through MD04/MD05 or in sales order -Availaibility check -Schedule Line -Availaibility date .
    Hope your are clear about the requirememt .

  • Demand on VC material not visible in SNP planning book

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any way to plan VC (Variant Configuration ) materials in SNP at the group level ?
    I will explain the scenario more in details below
    I have an VC material say X. Material X has end product Y attached to it (material variant). When material X is cifed to APO, it appears as configurable product in APO & is a top level product. Now when I create a demand on material X through DP, the demand appears in product view (RRP3). However the demand does not appear in the SNP planning book nor it gets selected during background planning run. The system is configured as Variant Configuration & not CDP.
    Is it possible to plan material X in SNP ? If possible how can the demand be read in SNP ?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Sandeep

    Hi Sandeep,
    One of the limitations of Characteristics Based Forecasting is, CBF results can only be used in PPDS and not in SNP, hence it is not possible to plan that material X in SNP. Even though you use MC90 transaction which is release DP to SNP, but the data will not be available in SNP
    That material X will be planned only in PPDS, there are two ways to plan, those are
    1. one way is by releasing CBF results to active version using MC90 transaction, during this release, you should maintain consumption group in release settings and in product master, in this case you have to use Forecast Check/Allocation check as a part of ATP/GATP, here you can not use CTP or MATP
    2.the other way is by releasing CBF results to inactive version using MC90 transaction, during this release you should not define consumption groups,  generate the dependent requirements in inactive verison using heuristics in PPDS , and convert dependent requirements from inactive version to Forecast - active version using /SAPAPO/DMP2 transaction, in this case you can use MATP/CTP as a part of GATP

  • Forward / backward consumption Logic ( Macro) in DP Planning book

    Hi ,
          i need to have Forward / backward consumption Logic ( Macro) in DP Planning book .
    For example- say i have keyfigure - A , B.  Kefigure B need to consume the value of keyfigure A ( forward/ backwrd)  in DP planning book .
    Is there any std  MACROfunctionality to do this? 
    If NO. how we can write macro for this requirement ?
    Regrds
    Rajesh

    Hi Aparna & desai,
              Macro function - DEMAND_CALC( ACT_PRODUCT ; ACT_LOCATION ; ACT_VERSION ; ) will work only when we manintain product master with version and if we work in that same planning version. means every time it will go and refer product master setttings of 1) strategy 2) forward consumption days 3) backward consumtion days. So its more usful in SNP planning book.
    But i am working in DP planning book and version which i am working is  not involved in product master. so i hope this function will not work.
    Is there any otherway  to achive this with time series keyfigure . what logic i can use for macro?

  • Capacity planning and hardware sizing

    Hi,
    I would like to know in detail about capacity planning and hardware sizing while deploying oracle database products. I need to know about properly planning the infrastructure and configuring and deploying the products. Moreover, when should we use RAC,how many nodes, exadata, DR etc. How to size hardwares RAM,Disk for this kind of implemetations.
    I know it depends on budget and environment. Still if anyone kindly give some links/docs I will be able to have a decent start in this domain.
    Regards,
    Saikat

    See , they all depend on your company policy and the database size that they are going to have.
    1. Size : i have worked on databases sizing from 80G to 2000G , all depending on the client or the industry you are catering to.
    2. hardware and Ram : Server Team should know this better , you can have a simple small server if the DB and application are small and the usage would be less. If it a full fledged system with high load then you need to get in touch with your server team and raise an oracle SR for exact specifications for that database and also plan for some future growth.
    3. RAC : depends on the project if it requires such a setup.
    4. DR : is for disaster management. Also all companies implement this by adopting data guard ( physical standby).
    5. For having a good start , start reading the books and refer to oracle documentation. More you refer , more knowledge you will get .
    Start with the basics.... make your basics strong.. and then move ahead with complex setups.
