Change Planning file entry

Hi,
How can I change Planning file entry or selection? For a material, earlier I have selected the following in MD20
1. NETCH
2. NETPL
4. Reset order proposal
5. BOM explosion.
Now I want to deselect BOM explosion , how can I do that?
Sincerely,
Ketan

Hi,
Run MRP in MD02 with Planning mode as 3 - Delete.
This will delete the planning file entry of the material
then create the planning file entry manually by
MD20 - Create planning file entry
MD21 - Display planning file entry
MDAB - Set up planning file entry in background
MDRE -Check planning file entry

OPPP change is not triggering planning file entry flag?

We use alternate BOMs for a particular subassembly and depending on requirements
shuffle between BOMs using a different alternate for a certain time period.
However when we change the alternate in OPPP it is not triggering the change in the planning file.
Is there something we are missing here.
Thanks in advance.

Dear ,
Frist of all , there is no such cutomisation to have planning file entry of any material.Planning files entries is the first step which checks by the MRP during the MRP run. if no entries are found for the selected parts then MRP will not plans these parts. You can create/check the planning files entries from T Codes-MD20/MD21 even before you creat FG BOM .
Planning file entries will be created automatically when you enter the relevent MRP type (example PD) in the material master MRP1 view. OR when there was a change relevent to MRP like stock change due to moveement type/GR/GI or change in material master data.
MRP does planning file rentry based on the MRP relevent changes like you have FG and valid BOM .Now based on the FG MRP4 BOM Slection Explosion method , MRP will explode the BOM from lowest level and there will be planning file entry while executing MRP on FG based on the FG requirement and dependent relation in BOM .
In you case , please check the following ;
1.Whether you have kept other alternative BOM status as Inactive-2 Iin CS02-BOM Header -Status long text and also re-assing this in Routing CA02 with correct valaidty .Check the validity of the BOM alternative which u have included for sub-assbly
2.You have all the material master parameters [MRP1-MRP4 view ] all in place specially MRP type PD, Procurement Type E or F
3.Specially , check BOM explosion /selection methods in SFG/FG level in MRP4-Sleection methoids should Blank or 1 BASED ON QTY OR maintain producxtion version with selection indicator 2 or 3.
4.BOM should have usage -1-Production , Status-1 -Active.
5.Run MRP-MD02-NETCH, 2,1,3,3,2
Check and come back

Planning file Entries

Hi Friends
When is a Planning File Entry is Created?? During the creation of Material master?? We have uploaded the material Master and found that there are few materials for which Planning File Entries are not createdu2026.. How can we overcome this?? Do we have to create the planning file entries using MD20??
Is there any views which are required for Planning file entry Creation?? Like MRP 1 u2013 4 Views should be there for Planning File entry Creations??
Please get back to me on the above.
Jade

Dear,
All materials assigned with MRP are automatically entered in planning file entry.
Depends on changes in material planning or in proposal , system will create planning file entry.
When MRP run system will consider only which materials having entry in above contents of planning file entry.
If the materials is created before activating planning file for plant, you must generate planning file entry for all material by tcode MDAB.
T-Code :
MD20 Create planning file entry
MD21 Display planning file entry
MDAB Set up planning file entry in background
MDRE Check planning file entry
For the first time (just before Go-live), it is advisable to create the Planning file entries mnually and execute the MRP.. This is to reduce the inconsistencies..
But, system will automatically Creates the Planning File entry, if the Material is relevnt for planning.
First time MRP Run with NEUPL will not consider the planning file entries..
So, after that every thing will be stream lined.
In rare cases systm may miss the entering the Material details in the Planning file

Planning File entry is missing

Hi Friends,
I have issues of planning file missing for material from Sales Order. We are using Reorder point planning(ZM) and new Item Category YP19 and No Production involved. I have followign questions.
1. Is Strategy make to order is to be defined in material Master when production is not there ?
2. MDAB / MD20 is mandatory to run every day to get planning file entry ?
3. I nconfiguration in sales distribution, Basic Function, Avaliability check and Transfer requirement, Transfer Requirement, Determination of Requirement types using Transaction, I am not finding the new MRP type, New Item category combination with Requirement type. is this reason for not creating Planing file entry. If so how to configure new Item categorya nd New MRP type in this configuration.
Please confirm to fix the issues.

Dear ,
Please find the answer of your query :
1. Is Strategy make to order is to be defined in material Master when production is not there ?
Not really .You can use Planning Startgey 40 in this case .Basically , MTO means for all FG and SFG you will use 20 and dependent you will either keep 10 or blank .
2. MDAB / MD20 is mandatory to run every day to get planning file entry ? : If you have new materials created which have not under gone any MRP run so far , in that case you need to run MDAB/MD20 and carry out consistency check of the planning file MDRE.When ever you have new item created , it should have planning file entry .But when you run MRP , automatically , this planning file entry happens with Processing Key NEUPL.Please note that the PLanning file entry will be reset once the MRP is run. So you will not have an entry. When any change relavant to MRP is done the planning file netry is created automatically. You should then check the planning file before running the MRP.So it is always better to have Planning File Consuistency check before MRP run .
MD20 -- for singal material
MDAB -- Planing file entry in Background
MDRE -- check u r planing file entry here
3. I nconfiguration in sales distribution, Basic Function, Avaliability check and Transfer requirement, Transfer Requirement, Determination of Requirement types using Transaction, I am not finding the new MRP type, New Item category combination with Requirement type. is this reason for not creating Planing file entry. If so how to configure new Item categorya nd New MRP type in this configuration :
I do not think there is a relation between MRP type configuration with Requirement Type from SD.Basically requirement type linked with Planning Startgey Group to link wether we need to consider Customer Requirement or Customer Indepedent requirement with subsequenet set up copied from SD ( Accouting , Requirement Trasfer etc ) .
More oever , you are going to deal with ROP where , procureme nt proposal will triggered once availabity comes down reorder level ( either manul or forecast base automatica ROP) based on fixed recipet -PO,STO,Current stock and Demand -PIR,Sales Order.Now in your case , if you want to consider , Sales Order requirement , then it depnds on your re-order level and available stock .If the Re-order qty more than Sales Order qty , then it will trigger only ROP qty as PR .I think you need to test this scinario with stadars ROP MRP type in sand box and let us knwo your exat requirement in Question 3 .
Hope this is clear

Updation of the indicators of NETCH & NETPL in Planning File entry(MD21)

Hi,
Can anyone explain me when the indicators-NETCH & NETPL will be updated in Planning File entry table(tcode-MD21) for a material in a specific plant .
Actually, we observed that these indicators are updated only when we do Goods Issue through backflush during Production order confirmation. If i do goods delivery using tcode-VL01N(mtype 601), these indicators are not updated in planning file entries.Can anyone suggest me what could be the reason for this.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Please read below information.
"The planning file record for a material also has a u201C_net change planning in the current horizonu201D field which will be set if the change in the materials receipt or issue_ element is valid in the planning horizon. This indicator will help you choose only those materials which have undergone a change in the planning horizon; through the use of a planning key, in an MRP run, called u201CNet change planning in the planning horizonu201D.

Long Term Planning-Planning File Entry

Hi Gurus/Friends
In the long term planning after PIR with inactive version and creating Scenario, assinging versions, Plants,....then
during Release+Save it is giving the Result of Planning File Entries
Logically the system has suppose to give the Number of Planning File Entries in Propotionate to the Specific Planning Scenario number and materials inside
But it is giving for all the Materials inside the Plant
Is there any settings to restrict the Planning File Entry creation w.r.t Planning scenario during Release+Save
other than the solutions through Transaction MS20,MS22 and MSAB
(Because during Release+save logically it has to call the MS22 t.code and do planning file entries for the materials in that scenario)
Awaiting for reply
thanks
K.Prabakaran

Hi,
Please Refer Below SAP help .
*Releasing a planning scenario*
You first have to release a planning scenario before you can plan it in the long-term planning run. When you release the planning scenario, the system creates planning file entries for all materials in all the plants allocated to the planning scenario. There is a separate planning file entry for this purpose. This guarantees that your operative planning is kept completely separate from your simulative planning. This long-term planning file contains all the materials that are also contained in the operative planning file. After the release, every change relevant to MRP triggers an entry in the planning file as in operative planning.

Question on Planning File entry

Hi all,
Whenever a material master is changed with relevant MRP data, there will be a planning file entry for NETCH, NETPL. And after the MRP run, it will be reset. So I would like to know whether the materials which are reset (there is not entry for NETCH, NETPL) will be considered for the next MRP run. When i see the list in MD21, i can see the materials without NETCH, NETPL.
So I would like to know when you run the total MRP (MD01), the materials which are reset will be planned or not? Or should we manually create the planning file entry?
Regards
Brijesh

Dear,
While running MRP, system will consider material which have planning file entry.
So I would like to know when you run the total MRP (MD01), the materials which are reset will be planned or not? Or should we manually create the planning file entry?
system won't consider the material in MRP run.
NO need to create planning file entry manually ( because that material does n't have any changes related to MRP, so if u create manually also, system won't plan)

MRP Run - Planning file entry Issue

Dear All,
We are facing one problem in MRP Run. We run MRP in the background for a plant (MDBT) System is not creating planned order for few component. I have checked all relevant setting. I found that planning file entry is missing. I would like to know that how system can miss the material? How system creates & delete planning file entry ? I have some data related to this.
Last MRP run date is 22-04-09
PIR changed date on 30-04-09
MDRE Run on the 30-.4-09 at night.
MRP Run on 02-05-09 at night.
Problem reported that no planned order for the material on 07-05-09.
We have huge number of material so its difficult to check all material individually whether MRP run happend or not ?
Please let me know the possible reason for this.
Thanks & Regards
Kundan Kumar

Dear,
If you carte materaial or uplod materail before activation plant for MRP this may be the cause for this.
Planning File creates all the materials relevant for the planning run.
The planning run and the scope of the planning run (which materials are planned in which planning run) are controlled by the planning file.
For planning file entry use the following transactions,
MD20 : Create planning file entry
MD21 : Display planning file entry
MDAB : Set up planning file entry in background
MDRE : Check planning file entry Please run this in it will solve your problem
All materials assigned with MRP are automatically entered in planning file entry.
Depends on changes in material planning or in proposal , system will create planning file entry.
When MRP run system will consider only which materials having entry in above contents of planning file entry. After MRP run system delete the planning file entry. And again material gone the changes like GI GR on any other demand then system generate planning file enty again.
Hope it will help you to understand basic concept.

Planning file entry

Hi Guru's ,
is there any need to set up planning file enteries in OMDO for every plant because system will atomatically update the planning file for every material that have valid MRP data. If i have valid MRP views maintained in this situation what will be the reasons that system will not update plannig files.
thanks
Ramakant

Hi Ramakant,
Planning file entries will be created automaticaly with valid MRP type and with the every change in which is relevent to MRP.
But SAP recommends to run the setup and consistency check at plant level befor you execute the MRP this is because sometimes system wll not create planning file entry for a particuler part because od many reasons hence the this material will not be planned..in the same way after MRP run some planning file entries will not be deleted autmatically for some parts...resulting the MRP re-planned these parts in next run eventhough there was no change happned and no MRP was requires.
So conclusion is it is better to setup the planing file entries creation and consistency check program before every MRP run at plant level.
I hope this will help you.
Rewards your points to all useful answers.

Planning File Entry Job MDAB

Hi ,
We are in process of implementing MRP for a plant.
Query
Do we need to schedule MDAB for the planning file entry before MRP job( NETCH) or run MDAB just once.
If we do not schedule this job and run just once what are the problems we will face.
Thanks,
Anup

Hello,
MDAB is a batch program to set up planning file entries. So after you run this program, system will make planning file entries for all those materials which might have missed the entry.
This normally does not happen, but as a good practise it is better to run MDAB & MDRE, to ensure that the planning file entries are consistent.
Effects as such: As you might know already, if a planning file entry does not exist for a material it will not be considered in MRP run.
When to Run the Job:
There is no need to run this transaction regularly, unless otherwise you find a lot of inconsistency and some material which are supposed to get planned in MRP run are not getting planned.
SAP automatically creates a planning file entry for the material whenever an MRP related change is happening for the material. Some times due to inconsistencies in the system, this entry is not made, so that materials would not get planned in MRP run, only when you face problem like this you need to run MDAB
Hope the above clarifies.
Regards

Planning File Entry has Reset Procurement Proposal field marked

Dear Sir,
We are facing a problem that in the Planning File Entry , the Material has "Reset Procurement Proposal " field marked as "X" automatically . We desire that this fileld should be blank as a default .
Kindly help us on this issue pl .

sonia agarwala

Dear ,
Basically ,when this indicator is set then the planned orders and purchase requisitions created by the systeem in the pre MRP run are deleted and recreated.
You can also control this from the MRP run transaction MD01, MD02, MD50. The same could be set in the planning files also. So even if you do not set it during running the transaction the planned orders and PRs will be deleted and recreated based on the following fields are changed.
1. In house production time.
2.MRP Controller
3. Schedule Margin Key.
4.Planned delivery time.
After making changes to the above mentioned fileds you can see the planning mode 3 Reset Order Proposals indicator in MD21.
So if you do not want this , then select Planning Mode Indicator -1 OR 2 in any MRP run like MD01/MD02/MDBT /MD03.
Planning Mode -1-Adop Normal Planning
Planning Mode -2-Reexplode BOM and Routing
Hope this is clear

Planning file entry and purchase orders

Hi all:
The documentation for MRP planning states that the planning file entry is updated for relevant changes to the material that includes among other things creation of purchase orders for the material.
In our system, MRP requisition creation does update table MDVM as part of the MRP run. However, purchase order creation does not update the planning file entry, even though the documentation says it should.
Anyone ever encounter this? Are there controls that need to be set?
thanks in advance
weston

Not sure where you had read that a Purchase order creation updates the PFE. Have a look at this.

Use of planning file entries

hi pp gurus
can any one explain me what is the use of planning file entries
one moree problem when i converting existing planning file entries
into new file entries. system gives the resullt converted planning file entries-0
so why it is happening
regards
Balu

Hello Balu,
System creates planning file entries automatically when the change take place for the materials if there is no change then there will no creation of planning file entry.
If you are running the background the also above logic will apply. Do some changes in stock or in material master then check the planning file entries.
Background job is recommend to run if sometimes systems will not create planning file enty eventhough there was a change. Otherwise there will be no creation of planning file entry if no change.
Please rewards your points if helpful

Use of Planning File Entry

Hi,
what is the use of planning file entry and when it will be generated?
- Ram.

Hi Ram,
Planning file extry will be created or executed by system to
the objects (location products) which undergo planning run.
ie Whenever a location product undergoes demand or supply
relevant changes, during planning run for system to plan, a
planning file entry will be marked by system which will be
used as basis for planning.
This will be used in cases where network heuristics kind of
runs will be executed

Issue related to planning file entries.

Daily around 50,000 materials are getting flagged with the planning file entries ( NETCH , NETPL & BOM Expl ) in around 10 - 20 sec .
As this is imapcting the MRP run , we need to now the reason why these planning file entries are created .
Note :-
*)   All these materials has been linked to the configurable material in MRP view
*)   There are no changes in these materials
*)   There are no changes in the config mat , BOM , routing .
*)   There are no batch jobs or Idocs processed at the specific time when planning file entries are created
     Assuming that the Time stamp of last update for planning file entry in DBVM is in UTC (Universal time)
*)   We have also execute the program for consistency check of planning file entries , however even this did not help

Hi Anupam
We just upgraded from 4.6 to ECC.
In 4.6 , the number of entries flagged with NETCH per day was around 3000 & the MRP run was taking around 30 min to finish .
After upgrade the MRP run is taking around 8 hrs to finish
As per our analysis , the main reason for the MRP performance is the number of planning file entries flagged with NETCH , NETPL & BOM re-explode indicator .
When we checked the update time stamp in table DBVM for all the 50,000 entries , we observed that all these entries were updated within a time duration of 15 - 20 sec.
In this paticular time duration , we checked whether there were any batch job or idocs getting procesed , but there were none .
As these entries are updated almost daily & there is no centain time when this happens , we need to know whether there is a mechanish with which we can find the specific program which created the planning file entries .
If we find the program , we can debug it .
As planning file entries are created in a number of cases ( may be creation /changing of master data or transaction data ) , we are totally clueless which standard program or Z program is causing the issue
