Capacity Limit for work center

Hi PP experts,
Our client have a requirement to map the moulds used in their manufacturing process as a resource to plan the capacity. But they want to assignment of capacity limit to this resource.
I.e. A mould can produce 1000 products. So 1000 is the capacity of the mould and as per its use in production order this capacity will reduce. So if I have a production order to produce 100 products, then after the production order processing, the remaining capacity should be 900.
Is there any way to map this by standard SAP or through enhancements??
A quick reply is appreciated.
Thanks & Regards
Enrico.

Hi Digambar,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I would like to explain in detail what is my exact requirement so that you may be able to help me.
The mould is used in a machine to produce the final product. The mould is having a total capacity when its procured but its total capacity reduces also. after each use i.e. The mould can be used for producing a certain quantity of the product and this capacity reduces after each production run.
For eg If the total capacity of the mould is to produce 1000 no of a product which will be available daily or weekly etc, and if my production order is for 100 Nos, after the production run, I can use the mould only for producing 900 product next time.
But in standard SAP, if Iam assigning the available capacity for the mould resource as 1000, I will be having the same capacity every day or every week even after I produce any quantity
So what exactly Iam looking for is a kind of usage factor which can reduce the capacity after every usage of the mould. Is it possible some how in R/3 or APO? either by standard or by any enhancement?
Request your expert advise
Thanks
Enrico

Capacity planning for Work Center

I programmed time for a Work Center on internal activity, for 40 hr using 100% of one resource, the work center it has a capacity of 8 hr each day, the activity gets a duration of 5 days and I indicated that it has to begin the first day of the next month.
When I executed transaction CM01, I notice that the 40 hours are planned for the actual day and don´t respect the dates of the internal activity, I think it is a problem with the work center but do not find the error.
Any suggestion where to look for?
The data used for creating the Work Center on Capacities:
- Capacity Category : 002 Person
- Other formula: SAP008
The data used for capacity:
- Base unit of meas.:H
- Start: 08:00:00
- Finish: 17:00:00
- Capacity utilization: 100
- No. of indiv. cap.:1
- Unit: H
- Relevant to finite scheduling: active
- Can be used by several operations: active
- Long-term planning: active
The data used for creating the Work Center on Scheduling:
- Capacity Category: 002 Person
- Other formula: SAP004
- Work dimension: Time

ALE/iDoc for Work Center data transfer

Hello, community.
I am working on several interfaces for the PP and PM modules using iDocs/ALE.
One of the requirements is that only created and modified data must be distributed from R/3.
For Work Centers, we are using basic type LOIWCS02 and message type LOIWCS. We are generating iDocs through transaction POIM, which has two transfer modes: Complete (data for all Work Centers etc.) and Change (only new and updated data).
The Change Transfer Mode assumes you have set both Change Pointers and Change Documents for the objects to be transfered. Otherwise, it'll work just like the Complete Transfer Mode.
Our PP consultant told me there is no configuration to generate Change Documents for Work Center data modifications.
Can anybody give me other opinions? I'll resort to Z-table solutions only if I have no other options.

Hi Danilo,
Do you know what the process codes are for
LOIWCS and LOIROU ?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Gopi.

User Exit or DB-Table for Work Center (CR01)

Hi!
I have an external software which must be triggered when the user changes a work center in SAP (transaction CR01,CR02). I was looking for an user exit to do what ever is necessary but I couldn't find one.
So, does anybody know an user exit or BADI for work center?
Also possible:
The database table where work center are stored. So I could poll against this table and check if a work center was changed. I found the table SGOSHIST which log all modified objects in SAP. So this could maybe used to check for modified work center, I think.
Thanks,
Konrad

> You can check the BADI definition from transaction SE18,
> 'LTRM_WORK_CNTR_DTRM', this might be helpful,
How can I check this BADI. If I use SE18, it doas not exist, buit if I try to create it, the system tells me that it already exists in the SAP Original System... and asks me if I want to create a copy of it! I don't know what to do at this point!
> Work center details are avilable in CRHD table, you can
> look for CR* from SE11 transaction,
I know, but if you change the description of the work center, it is stored in CRTX. there are a lot of CR* tables. It would be helpful to have a table which is updated every time a work center is modified!
Thanks,
Konrad

Change log for work center data

Hi,
I was looking for the table where the change header document for the work center is stored.I was able to find a transation CR10 which shows the changes and also the database table CDHRD.
When I am trying to view the changes that were made to the work center I find that the data does not exist in the tables.
I was curious to know this as for some transaction the data is being logged in their respective change table but not for Work Center changes.
Can anyone tell me as to why this is happening.
What I think is that some changes to the configuration are required in order to log the changes in the database.
Kindly help.
Regards
Varun

Hi Wolfgang,
Thanks for the information.
However i have another question.
The change table will have data only when it is activated in the configuration menu.
However is there any other way by which we can capture the previous data for the work center e.g. the changed by field. I want that the names of the users who has changed the wrok center currently and the name of the person who previously made changes to it.
See if you can help me on that.
Regards
Varun

Capacity cumulation in work center hierarchy

Hello
Does anyone uses workcenter hierarchies to cumulate capacity requirements ?
I've created a hierarchy but in the capacity evaluation transaction cm01,
the capacity requirements are not cumulated from the underlying work center.
Instead a capacity requirement of zero is shown on the hierarchy work center.
Is there any specifics to cumulate the capacity requirement to work center hierarchy header
Best regards
Pascal

Hi,
In the transaction CM01, choose the pull-down menu Settings-> General. In the pop-up screen, under the "Herarchy" tab, select the check boxes "Cumulation of reqmts" and "Dyn. capacity cumulation", choose the "Hierarchy" and "Plant" and click on "Continue".
Now the "Available Capacity" will be as per hierarchy setup and Rem. avail cap = Reqmts-Available capacity.
Hope this solves the requirement.

Number Range for Work Center

Hello All
Am having a little concern regarding the number range for Work Center, kindly let me know where the number range for Work Center is maintained or from where it is picked up when we are using external no range assignment for Work Centers.
Regards,
J K Tharwani

Thanks Sir for your reply,
Actually the requirement is the client want that Equipment number must be the same as the Work Center Code, and Work Center code which i have decided is something like 0101001 & if i give the external no to the Equipment then the system doesnt take the same number instead it takes 101001 i.e. it ignores the initial "0" in the work center code. Actually I wanted to see the no range from where the work center numbering is being picked up, but later on i came to know that there is no such no range setting for work center instead it has contol from no range for object type. Shall look forward to your valuable inputs & guidance.

Inspection time Capacity Updation in work center for skipped lots

Hi Guys,
             I am using in process inspection type 03 along with DMR criteria at lot level i have defined the DMR rule and assigned it in routing header.DMR rule is inspection lot 1 in 5 will be inspected i.e when the inspection lot will be created and if there is no quality level exists it will first create the quality level with 1st inspection lot which will not be skipped lot and then it will skip next 4 lots and 5th will be inspected again.Quality level is updated during lot creation level.
             what i am looking is when you have the skip inspection lot he capacity which has been planned for inspection for that work center should not be considered since there is no inspection done because of skipped inspection on that work center although it's the part of Routing/production process.
please let me know if any more inputs required.
your inputs/feedback is really appreciated

Hi Krishna,
It is distributing unevenly because of the Int. Dist. key maintained for "Labour" capacity category.
Following are the available dist keys.
I think for your scenario, you should select SAP020
SAP000     Overall load for latest start date
SAP010     Overall load for earliest start date
SAP020     Equal distrib. earliest dates, fact.cal.
SAP030     Equal distrib. latest dates, fact. cal.
SAP040     Equal distrib. latest dates, discrete
SAP050     Equal distrib. earliest dates, oper.time
SAP060     Equal distr. latest dates, operat. time
SAP070     Overall load at latest finish date
Please let me know if this works for you.

How to find the reporting for work center machine wise

hi gurus
My question is . In one work center machine capacity category 2 machines are used. Client is asking the report machine wise. i.e as 2 machines are available .What is the capacity utilisation for each machine.Provide me the information for this. Thanks in advance
kalyan

Hi Kalyan
you have to make some settings in production order & work center first.
In work center capacity header ,you have to make indiovidual capacities as 2.
In the same capacity header screen by going through the menu Goto--->individual capacitities define these different individual machines.
In the production order operation detail screen goto " capacity reqmt assignment " assign the quantities for different work centers.
Adfter this in the confirmation CO11N you have to fill the split field accordingly& confirm different wortk centers seoperatley.
Then you can the report in the CO14 for diferent work centers.
you try this.

Capacity Leveling of Work Center

Hi all,
I have a problem with Capacity of Work center (WC).
I have a Internal Activity, and i assigned a WC for this Internal Activity. WC's capacity is 100H/day for 1 number of element.
Work of this WC is 250H, duration 5 days, number of element 1. Default capacity of this WC is distributed by Distribution Key define in Activity. . And they are divided equally between factory days in 5 day. That is capacity requirement is 50H/Day
So, i want to edit this WC's capacity following value:
Day 1: 100H/day
Day 2: 50H/day
day 3: 0H/day
day 4: 0H/day
day 5: 100H/day
How can i do it?? I try to use Dispatch Manually but i cant solve this problem.
Please help me for this case.
Thank all.

Dear
Capacity leveling depends on some of the basic set up of Capacity Requirement Planning .You need to have proper CRP set up frist .
Couple of check points : -
Did you work centre is relevent for finitie scheduling in CR02-Capacity Header and wht is the over laod percentage for work centre ?
Did you have Capacity Requirement Related Set up like Over all profile , time profile , Startegy Profile -OPD0?
Did your Capacity Check -OPJK -Order Control at order level are active for availibilty Check 1 and 2 and assinged Over all Profile ?
Set up :
1.Please assing a operation control key like PP01 where Details Capacity Check and scheduling is active .
2.In CR02-Work centre -Capacity Header -You should have Follow check box marked
1.Releven for Finitie Scheduleing
2.Can be used for multiple Operation
3.
3.OPU3/OPU5 -Define Scheduling paramter -Mark Scheduling and Capcity Check for planned order or production Order
4.In SPRO -Shop Floor Control-Define Production Scheduling Profile -You need to matian the relevent Parameters like
1.Schedueling Automatically 2.Scheduling Log 3.Adjust Scheduling -Basic date , Depedent Requirement date 4.Scheduling Type -Backward etc .
These are all basic level set up beside CRP overall profile and other profile like strategy /time etc which may in place as you are analysing in CM01.
Please find below some of the useful CRP details : Refer this threads which are self explaintory :
