Change of factory calender

Hi All,
I have come across a scenario wherein the factory calender are different in the plant and the shipping point. If i change the calender of shipping point on PRD what will be the implications of this ? What all aspects do i need to watch out for ? There is a PP integration in this plant too.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Saurabh Diwakar

hello again.
since calendars are cross client, prashant has a point. apparently it wouldn't make a difference whether you do this is PRD or DEV. you will see the changes in any environment within the global setting.
thanks for the correction.
regards.
p.s.
but shouldn't the assignment of the calendar to the shipping pt be done in DEV?

Please guide.
Thanks and Regards

Dear ,
Frist of all , Factory Calander is a client level set up .You can also make changes with out trasport if the business permits you to open PRD client for extending the calander till 2011.
To make necessary changes , please do the following at any Clinent [prd/dev]
1.Goto OP03-Select calander maintainenece
2.Slect the Holoday Calender in Change mode [Pencil Option] -Keep the valaidty along with all the public holday calander validity till 2011 or 2012 .
3.Similarly , do the same in Factory calander .
4.After that Assing the Holiday calander to Factory Calander and Finally SAVE.
5.Re-assing the Calander to Plant once again in OP03 -Plant Assingent tab or re-assing at WC ( CR02-Capacity tab -Standard Avalaable Capacity )
6.If you are carrying out the changes in Dev , then go back to main screen of OP03 and Flag the Factory Clander , Hit back Transport symbol -Truk to create workbench request and transport request from workbench .Compare the Prod with development at OY19 T code and and transport.

Factory calender issue

Hi all,
Here goes a problem with factory calender in project systems.
The Project performed by the client are flexible. in some projects they work considering sunday as holiday and in some cases they work on sundays.
we have only one plant assigned to the projects which has only one factory calender assigned. e.g plant 1000 to factory calender F1(considering sunday as holiday)
when i create a new project if i change the factory calender at project definition to F2(considering sunday as working) and then if i go futher creating activities. system will still take the default factory calender assigned to plant i.e F1 and not F2.. the factory calender F2 can be seen in project definition, wbs element and activities.
but when i change dates at network header level and try to schedule.. system is considering factory calender F1.
can anyone pls tell me how to solve this problem.
thanks in advance,
steve

Please go to work centre --- capacity --- assign required calendar there.
As in the activity calendar will be picked up from work centre

Transport for SCAL 'factory calender' or administer SCAL in prod system?

Hi togehther,
we could change the factory calender in the development system and afterwords transport this changes by using a transport request and STMS.
But our Consultants recommend not to transport these changes. They recommend to open the prod System with SCC4 to open status (Changes are allowed) and then make the changes in the prod system.
I think, this is the wrong way. How do you solve this probem?

Teamlead SAP-Basis

Hi ,
You are consultants are right because SAP clear tells that "You cannot transport individual public holidays or calendars. You can only transport calendar data in its entirety. When you do this, all public holidays, public holiday and factory calendars existing in the target system are deleted".
As from your mail i understood that in development system,all users have access to to SCAL transaction,if some users have craeted or changed the factory calendar changes.all this changes get in to trnsport request which in turn affect the calendars in production system.
Thats Y in some industries,Consultants will do the changes through fire fighter ID directly in production or in some industries for development system SCAL authorization will not be given to all.so that as Juregn pointed development and production system will be in SYnc and you can do transport.
In this situation you can try one more option,after generating the transport request go to SE01 ,go to change mode and edit the request (double click on the request).
then go to obects tab you will see lot of tables related to factory calendar.check each tables in SE16 for the calendar you made the changes.if entries are there retain the table else delete the table.
If entries are there,then double click on the table,you will get the table key.in that put calendar id if there is only one entry,if more entries are ther e put calendar id suffix star.and save.
Check this solution first intest system and ensure whether it is trnsaporting only the particular changes

Factory calender for Shipping Point

Dear,
if we change the Factory calender for Existing shipping point, Can i know what are the provlems will face??
Thanks in adv.

You can do this by using tcode:OVXD ( Define Shipping Point) -Initial step to create Shipping Point in Enterprise structure.
Select your shipping Point & Click on Details button - you will find Factory Calender field.
It will have impact on following:
- confirmation dates of Qty(Lead time)
- Need to check Public holidays.
- Confirmation Date on sales document items, may get re-calculated as the shipping point may have less/more days now to do backward/forward scheduling
- If you are on a MTO environment, the start/finish date of the manufacturing order may change, as now you may have more/less days than previously estimated
-The MRP demand may change, now requesting certain product to be available (material Availability Date) either earlier or later
-Your "Route" (Transit Time) may be off and if you have any "D" Incoterms that drive revenue recognition at different times after PGI, then they may be off now that the date is different.
One suggestion. Copy your client to a temporary sand box client, then do the change there and then try to ship some orders on the date that is/was marked as a holiday, also change some sales orders (anything that will re-trigger the scheduling like quantity or delivery date) and take a look not only to the sales document, but to the manufacturing order as well as get the MRP folks to be aware of the impact on their side . Having the compare client, you will be able to see what happen in your production system vs. how it behaves on your new sandbox with the new calendar.
Hope it can assist you.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
The non working days and working days in the factory calender can be overrided
in the shift sequence .
steps to follow :
1 Go to Workcenters Scheduling tab page.
2.Click Capacties Header.
3. Go to intervals and shifts .
4. Edit --> insert --> insert interval
   Enter maintenance off date and in the workdays coloumn
   three options are available.
   option 1 : working days according to factory calender
   option 2 : Non working days( overrides factory
              calender)
   option 3 : working days (overrides factory calender)
This means for your problem you need to enter the option2
ie though you have specified in factory calender as working day, for all these workcenters the system will
plan in such a way as holiday on the specified date.
Other areas won't get affected.

Consideration of factory calender in threshold values

Hi,
I need to consider the factory calender in the threshold values to check the due date of a task or a checklist item.
For example:
The task/or checklist item is due in 11 days (and the factory calender should be condsidered)
Does anybody know how to implement these checks in the threshold values of cprojects?
Thanks for your help!
Isabella

Dear Friend,
Ideally you should not change anything on Production server directly.
The normal & universally acceptable way is to transport the changes from Development or Quality to Production.
Still if you want to make changes on Production Server Directly (which even i dont recomend) you need to make Production Server in change mode thru T-Codes SCC4 & SE03 & make necessary changes.
Let me know if you need to know how to use T-Codes SCC4 & SE03.
Thanks,

Changes to Factory Calendar Not reflected in work schedule

I have updated the exsisting factory calendar in PRD .
Yet the changes do not seem to have taken effect. I have tried to regernerate the work schedule. However I'am not sure I have done that properly.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi.. you cant expect any change in the Factory calender affecting work schedules. If you want the work schedules to be updated with the holidays you need to be updating the holiday calender.
Factory calender is mainly for Plant Schedules, Bank transfers in finance , etc

Days since Sales Order creation excluding holidays in factory calender

Hello,
Can anyone pls tell me the logic to retrieve the Days since Sales Order creation excluding the holidays in Swedish factory calender.
Current logic which we have thought of is
(The first succesful output - Order creation date)
But the result should exclude the Swedish Factory calender holidays (our client is from Sweden)
Now we need to establish the logic of fitting the factory calender into this whole issue. As we have to provide the logic to our ABAP er .
Waiting to hear from u all.......

Your message is somewhat unclear to me.
When creating a sales order, a "Required Delivery Date" is needed.
This date is checked against the unloading calendar of the customer. If the system finds the requested delivery date = a non-working day of the customer calendar, it issues a warning (No goods accepted on DD.MM.YYYY. The next possible date is: DD.MM.YYYY (Message no. V1019). There does not seem to be any possibility of changing this warning to an error in the standard system; only possibility would be to modify the standard code.
If I have misterpreted your thread, then apologies, and feel free to elaborate on the issue some more.
