Capacity Planning for all Sales Order Items

Question

Sir,
A Sales Order have 4 different line items & need to produce on single work center.
In schedule line of sales order requirement dates are given priority wise.
After running the MRP I have observed that for all schedule lines, all planned ordered are starting on same date & time on the given capacity.
I need to level it manually.
Here I have few Question.
1) Can Capacities are Scheduled as per priority given in SO automatically.
2) Can revised availability dates will be reflected in SO.
3) Which reports will be useful for understanding consolidated availability date of material for given sales order/s.

Answer 1

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 .
Regards
