CIF Blocking for SNP CTM Run

Hi Folks,
We are implementing CTM solution for a HTDM client. It is the same APO instance where one company is already live on APO and CTM runs are taken on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday on a weekly basis. Now for this new company implementation, we need CTM run to happen everyday at end of the day. Since the client is in USA, we can't have CTM run till 9PM EST since there are end users in west coast as well. But due to busness requirements, we need to complete the CTM runs and publish orders by 8PM EST. No comromise possible on this
Here is the critical issue. CTM run requires CIF Qs to be blocked during the run time. When we run CTM for company 2, if the CIF Qs are blocked, company 1 will face issues since their business is on else where. Is there a way to run CTM and block CIF Qs only for company 2? It is possible for data transfer block from APO to ECC but what we are concerned is to block ECC to APO data for company 2 only. If this can be achieved, the issue of conflict with CTM runs gets resolved.
Has anyone faced this issue or is aware of a solution to this problem? Kindly reply back.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hi Chandra
Does the customer use same client for both company ?
If yes, is there any relation between the data of company 1 and company 2 ?
(Same location products are used ?)
If the data is related, it is better to lock CIF queue.
(Since incoming data can have influence on running CTM
as described in Note 487261 / 528913).
But if the data is not related (different location products are processed,
I think you do not need to block CIF queue from ECC to APO).

  • Sales order block for MRP run when the Customer payment terms is in Advance

    My client needs to block some sales order for MRP which customer payment term is advance. But it should be based on the customer payments terms (In case of Advance). After getting his advance amount, we would be release it and it also be consider for MRP.
    Option 1.Status profile  this concept is will controlled by sales document controls VOV8 not by customer's payment term Advance
    Option  2: In CMR sales area Billing Document tab  by using payment guarantee procedure and in VOV8 in billing tab Payment guaramtee procedure by using this setting , i am getting a pop up message" No Finanical document assigned" in sales order when u try to save. Now sales order is blocked for delivery but not MRP run.
    i am to ask the abaper to develop "here in the information box we will maintained required text say example u201C customeru2019s Payment term is in advance please check the reason for rejection number u201Csay ex: 13u201D: advance " after this is happen go to change mode of sales order put reason for rejecation" now MRP run will not generate the requirement for the sales order.
    for Undo these this flow :
    Va02 : remove the reason for rejection keep it in Blank
    VKM3 : release the sales order.
    Options 3: Development 
    Kindly suggest me the second options is only alternative for solving this issue but really i m not used specific feilds to solving this issue.

  • Customer invoices are blocked for dunning automatically when we run F150

    HI All
    when we are running the dunning (T.Code F150) for one of the customer invoice items are blocking for dunning automatically.
    the customer master setting for dunning block fields is empty and there is no changes for this field.
    These invoices are created recently and could please help to find a solution for not happened the same in hte next dunning runs?
    thanks in advance
    Best regards

    Hi,
    Customer automatically gets blocked if the Customer has NO Line Items which can be considered for Dunning.
    Before running the Dunning check weather the customer master us updated with DUNNING Variant and also check for the weather the  Line items are over due and if so check the Dunning Procedure for Dunning INTERVAL and also the Arrear Days for each Internal.
    Hope this will Help you .

  • WORK FLOW & PROCEDURE FOR FOR SNP CAPACITY LEVELLING HEURISTICS RUN

    Dear Sir / Madam,
    Currently, we are  taking  only SNP Heuristics Run  and the output viz. planned stock transfer requisitions are being passed to PPDS as such. But now we feel, SNP capacity leveling can play a vital role in getting more fine tuned results from PPDS. So, We wants to start using the SNP Capacity leveling run. We shall like to know the work flow / procedure for taking the SNP capacity level run i.e. what inputs should be properly reviewed before taking the SNP capacity level run and what shall  be its output..? Kindly let us know the procedure / work flow for taking the SNP Capacity Levelling Run.
    Your early reply in this regard shall be really appreciable.
    Thanks & Best Regards,
    Sanjeev Chugh

    Hi Sanjeev,
    as in any other module, correct master will play a key role in getting effective results in capacity levelling. you will need to check the following master data while setting the system for capacity levelling :
    Consistency in BOM in R/3 and PPM/PDS
    Consistency in Routing in R/3 and PPM/PDS - the actual through put on the shop floor should be the same as that in the routing and in the PPM/PDS. unless this is in sync, no amount of levelling can return good results.
    Maintenance of shift - again as present in the shop floor.
    you can provide the dump of the above master data and ask the shop floor engineers to validate the data as it exists in the ssytem. you can do the consistency check between R/3 and APO yourself using queries. Once they have validated this master data and the the actual master data reflects in your system, i think, the job is more than 50 % complete.
    also you need to check the lot sizes, rounding profiles, and period factor, becasue all three combined play a major role in giving good or better results after levelling.
    you may also check at what level you want to run the levelling. whther the bottleneck is at the finished component level, or 2nd level, etc. you may check whther you have discrete manufacuring or REM and if you really want to levelling on REM order.
    then you need to analyse, what is the lengh of horizon you want to run the capacity leveling on. sometimes it makes no sense to run on the entire horizon because if capcities are already overlaoded, you will not achieve the desired results.
    hence depending upon the level of your understanding and comfort of the planner (who will be using this result), the horizon can be increased grdually.
    if you are starting to implemement capcity levelling, you can sumulate runs and show the results to the planner and check if the standard capacity heursitics satisfies their requirement. else you can go for custom requirement.
    you will also have to decide on the stratagies, priorities,etc based on the business requirement.
    i think the above should give some starting direction to implement capcaity levelling in your system.
    award points if you find this useful.

  • Table for Demands and Supplies after CTM run

    Hi Gurus,
    I want to get number of demands and supplies after CTM run .
    I can see these details from opt11 . But i want to use these data points further for a custom developments .
    So please let me know , in which table these entries sit ? There has to be a standard table for the same .
    Regards
    Bhupendra

    Vikas,
    You can also improve changing the data points in CTM global setting /SAPAPO/CTMCUST...
    Enable check box : Asynchronous Update and Define appropriate Packet Size and also update
    Package Size for Creating Orders
    Package Size for Creating Pegging Rels
    Package Size for Order Selection
    Below example illustrates the improved performance by enabling check box : Asynchronous Update and Define appropriate Packet Size
    If you set the indicator, CTM first plans the number of demands
    specified in the Package size field. Then the system creates the
    corresponding orders in the liveCache. At the same time, CTM continues
    with the planning for the remaining demands.
    If you do not set the indicator, the system first plans all demands and
    then creates the orders in the liveCache.
    Example
    You want to use the asynchronous liveCache update for 20000 demands.
    Enter 1000 as the package size. The system attempts to fulfill the first
    1000 demands. The orders for these demands are created in the liveCache,
    whilst CTM planning continues for the remaining 19000 demands."
    We had similar issue and CTM performance improved significantly after updating the above setting.

  • CTM run in APO

    Dear All,
    I am learning APO.I can do the
    DP & SNP (Network ,Multilevel)
    heuristics Runs on APO 3.1 very well.
    I would like to know how to Run CTM ? What is CTM? and most important what are the settings required for CTM run in APO?
    Can anybody help & guide me.
    I am awaiting for your valuable answer.Many thanks in advance.
    Warm Regards,
    Vishwesh Rajguru

    Waht is CTM
    Capable-to-Match (CTM) functions match a large set of
    prioritized customer demands and forecasts to a set of
    categorized supplies considering the current production
    capacities and transportation capabilities in a multistage
    production environment, as in the semiconductor
    industry. CTM is based on constraint-based propagation
    techniques and goal-oriented programming.
    Preprocessing tools provide a set of categorized supplies
    and prioritized demands as input to the CTM Engine,
    which then performs a fast check of production
    capacities while considering transportation capabilities.
    Prioritize by Demand
    CTM prioritizes demands, such as customer orders
    or forecasts from SAP APO Demand Planning, based
    on such characteristics as customer priority, location,
    and product priority.
    Supply Categorization
    CTM performs supply categorization based on the
    available supply and user-defined inventory limits, such
    as amount of inventory or planned deliveries.
    CTM Engine
    The CTM engine delivers the functions you need to
    control supply and demand. The CTM engine process
    can be divided into two steps. In the first step, the
    CTM engine builds the CTM application model using
    the specified supply network model. In a second phase,
    the CTM engine matches demand to supply considering
    production capacities and transportation capabilities
    and using constraint-based propagation. CTM searches
    before production and after production.
    In before production searches (or most to least), the
    system first searches through all supply categories for
    finished or semifinished products before it resorts to
    ordering production for that item. The search is
    conducted top down. The system first searches the
    production process model for finished products, then
    intermediate products, then raw materials.
    In after production searches (or least to most), the
    system searches for categories after an attempt is made
    to produce the item.
    Time-Dependent Production Processes
    You can define different production processes,
    including product flow, for different time intervals. The
    CTM engine chooses only production processes that
    are valid at the representative time.
    Model Alternative Components
    You can implicitly model alternative components by
    annotating a list of alternatives within the bill of
    material, or you can model alternative components
    explicitly by defining a set of product substitutions for
    a given product.
    Identification of Raw Material
    A special product category identifies material that is
    available in an infinite quantity. But for the consumption
    of this product, a purchase requisition must be
    created.
    Process Flows Based on Demand
    You must select a specific process flow based on the
    set of characteristics of a given demand. For a planning
    process that covers several physical plants, you must
    be able to restrict the production and distribution
    network to a set of allowed plants. In addition, the
    CTM engine can handle the plant substitution rules of
    SAP APO’s Global ATP component.
    Product Substitution Rules
    CTM considers a set of demand characteristics for each
    product and a prioritized list of substitute products
    using Global ATP rules.
    Customization/Settings
    Global customizing settings
    The package size is the key parameter that can improve the performance if you are using the asynchronous liveCache (LC) update.
    In asynchronous update the system creates the orders in the LC after planning the specified number of demands. At the same time, the system continues with the CTM planning for the other demands.
    The performance depends on the amount of planned orders that are created per demand.
    If you set up a package size of 1000 demands, this means that each 1000 demands CTM writes the results to the LC. If there are only 1000 planned orders created for fulfilling these 1000 demands then the package size is too small for an asynchronous run with a good performance because the CTM run needs to stop each 1000 planned orders for triggering the LC writing. This increases then the run time. In case there are 100.000 planned orders created then the package size is too big because the CTM run for creating these 100.000 planned orders needs probably longer than the parallel writing of the results to the LC.
    So the optimal package size makes the planning and writing to LC almost parallel.
    Apart from the package size of the asynchronous LC writing, there are three more areas where packages must be defined.
    - Package Size for Creating Orders. The value indicates how many orders can be created in the LC at one time.
    - Package Size for Creating Pegging Relationships. The value indicates how many pegging relationships can be created in the LC at one time.
    - Package Size for Order Selection. The value indicates for how many location products a LC request can be started at one time (package size for reading orders from LC in a way that CTM can use them for planning).
    It is difficult to give recommendations regarding these package sizes because one needs to play around in a specific situation to improve the performance. So consider the following values as an orientation.
    Regarding the package size of the Order Creation a value smaller than 1000 can be recommended (default value is 500 orders), but also a value up to 5000 can be efficient. In case of performance issues it is recommended to run CTM with different package sizes : 500, 1000, 2500, 5000 and see whether one of these settings can improve the performance.
    Regarding the package size for Creating Pegging Relationships a value bigger than 1000 is recommended. The default value is 5000 pegging relationships.
    The setting for the Order Selection is based on location-products, which implies that if the setting is currently 5000, CTM reads the orders for the first 5000 location-products and sends them in one package from the LC. If the average amount of orders per location-products combination is 10 (each location-product has in average 10 orders) the result is 50.000 orders transferred in the package.
    As this setting depends on the amount of orders existing per location-product, one needs to play again with different settings in case of performance issues. Generally it is recommended to have a value smaller than 10.000.
    3) Planning profile (business improvements)
    Apart from the customizing settings, the performance depends on many other criteria like the Master Data Selection, Order Selection, Selected Demands, Planning Period, Product-Location restrictions.
    If you want to improve the performance you should create a master data selection which contains only the objects in the model which are actively planned by the CTM run.
    You can check whether it is possible to divide your supply chain in separate independent model parts. This covers a big performance improvement potential because the independent parts of the chain can be planned in parallel.
    Then the order selection, especially the size and data requirements, is one of the major areas where you can improve the performance.
    During the deletion of orders in a CTM planning run, several checks that are not always required are run. The parameter 'FAST_DEL' skips some checks of the normal planning run to improve the planning run time. The parameter is activated if you set Value1 of the planning parameter to X. In this case, no information is analysed on pegging, input or output nodes during order selection. Therefore, the parameter can only be reasonably used with the planning mode "Regenerative planning" (Replan all Orders) and the deletion mode "All unfirmed orders" (Delete all Orders that are not firmed). Note that in this case, only the status and the type of the order are analyzed for the deletion decision. This means that all planned orders or purchase requisitions are deleted, if they were not firmed manually (Output fix) and contain at least one location product that is contained in the CTM master data selection. This parameter must not be used if you use a subcontracting scenario. In this case, inconsistencies can occur between the data in APO and the R/3 System because subcontracting purchase requisitions are deleted but not the subcontractor planned order at the subcontractor side.
    Notice that since release SCM 4.0 the parameter 'FAST_DEL' is obsolete and has been replaced with the planning step (Technical Settings tab) End Planning Run after Oder Selection in combination with Do Not Check Order Details.
    CTM run time depends on the number of demands. Consequently if your business need for CTM does not require all demands simultaneously, you can perform CTM runs using a demand selection. You can cut down on run time if you can first reduce the amount of demands considered in the planning run.
    Another factor to take into account is the planning period set for the CTM profile. You can implement a horizon in the work area which includes only those demands that can be planned during the horizon of the CTM run. That is, exclude any periods containing demands which cannot be planned.
    Consider also whether you can meet your business requirements by restricting your demands by product-location. You can experience long run times because in a large supply chain you do not restrict the demands by product-location combination.

  • Planned order CIF blocks

    Hi,
           This is continuation of my previous [post|No IModel active for cat. Planned Orders]
    I am getting the CIF blocks starting with CFIP00... and these are from the program,/SAPAPO/RDMCPPROCESS, that collects and pushes the orders to R/3.
    Now the strange thing is I get about 200 of them every day and when I delete the first CIF block, all the queues will be deleted immediately. This is probably the 5 or 6 time in a row. Every time I run this program, I get the blocks. After deleting the first queue, everything else gets cleared immediately.
    I checked in the active integration model the material at that plant is in there.X0 maintained,  and the planned order in that first queue is not the same material every time!
    Any bod has any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Hi Manish,
                       I activated the first one and it said running and came back to the same error SYSFAIL.
    I checked SLG1, it's the program /SAPAPO/RDMCPPROCESS that was runs at 02:10 AM and that's almost the same time in CIF
    queue as well.
    I checked SLG1 and there is a log with grey icon (instead of green or red) with

  • Does T-Lane Duration take priority over Quota Arrangement for SNP Heuristics?

    Hi,
    I have the following scenario setup for SNP Heuristics.
    Source : S1, S2
    Destination : D0
    T-Lanes are All Product valid from years 2012 - 9999
    T-Lane : S1 -> D0 : 0hr Duration
    T-Lane : S2 -> D0 : 144 hr Duration
    Inbound Quota Arrangements at D0 - 100% to Partner Location S2 ( no quota for source S1)
    When I run Location Heuristic in Data View for a demand 2 days from current day, it is sourcing from S1 even though I have 100% Quota arrangement to source it from S2. Is this correct?
    Regards

    Hi,
    The quota has priority, so S2 should be determined.
    This is what I would do:
    I would check again than the Quota is well mainatined: check the validity period, double check the quota is 100% for S2. You could even recreate the Quota again.
    Check MAT1 for your Material in all the locations S1 & S2.
    Check that your t-lane S2 --> D0 is ok.. not blocked.
    Try to create an Transport Requisitions manually in RRP3 at location D0 and chose source S2.
    If after point 4 you can create manually teh requisition assigning S2, then something is wrong with your Quota. In this case check these threads:
    Quota arrangement not considered during snp heuristic
    Quota arrangement not considered during SNP heuristic
    Kind Regards,

  • Transit time , SNP CTM

    Hi,
    I am facing another scenario:
    we are using CTM for SNP.We have maintained transit time of 3 weeks for certain products from a certain vendor location. Vendor location was not CIFed from R/3, but was created by extending the product to a location in APO. After the CTM run, planning book is showing 4 weeks transit time for one particular product only.
    ANy suggestions on this will be appreciated.
    Thanks for your time.

    Can you confirm what you see is 4 weeks by looking at the requirement and availability date of the order/req created in the system at the destination? Can you confirm there is no Stock transfer horizon at source? Also confirm whether there are no holidays either in the receiving calendar at destination or shipping calendar at source? Are you maintaining calendar in T lane mode?

  • Credit memo - Blocked for payment  in MM

    Hi,
    i created a purchase order (ME21N) with 10 quantity and 100 for price for a total amount of 1000 u20AC.
    After i create the corresponding invoice but with 10 quantity and 2000 u20AC for total amount, of course the status is Blocked for price reason.
    So i call my vendor, and he send me a credit memo for 1000 u20AC. Now when i catch on the credit memo in reference to the invoice the system block also this document, perfectly but is there a workflow standard to manage this process ? i would like to deblock this credit memo.
    Thanks for your help.
    Cheers

    Hi,
    In your case try to run the trasaction and find the business object associated for credit memo. The process is as follows.
    The SWELS is event trace and this is used to find the business Object and event triggered when a trasaction is executed.
    Example: i want to know what is the Business object and event triggered when a sales order is created. In this case i will switch on the event trace and run va01 and create a sales order. Now i again go to swels and switch of the event trace.
    Now go to display event trace(swel), here you can find bus2032 and event created. so this business object and event can be used to trigger your workflow.
    Once you are able to find the business object. Open swo1 t-code and enter the business object and click on where used list. you wil find all the Workflows assigned to that business object. if ther is any standard workflow you can directly use it else you can develop the a custom workflow.

    serveradmin stop ipfilter
    serveradmin start ipfilter
    Add the subnet 10.x.x.x to the firewall whitelist
    /usr/libexec/afctl afctl -w 10.0.0.0/8
    Till now not, no joy .
    The only indication i could find till now is the "emond[106]: Host at 10.0.0.100 will be blocked for at least 15 minutes" message in the
    system log. Anyone any suggestions , ideas , hints how to analyze this issue further or better to resolve this ?

    I had a similar problem. I fixed it using a few steps. I think the important steps were performed on the Time Machine client although I also rebooted the Time Machine server once and cycled the Time Machine service on and off a few times. I also turned on and off the external drives connected to the Time Machine server.
    Now to the steps that I think actually fixed the problem. They were performed on the Time Machine client.
    1) Under Time Machine in System Preferences, turn it off and remove the remote backup destination.
    2) Under Keychain Access in Utilities within Applications, look for entries under login and System related to your Time Machine server machine.
    3) From the client, I connected to the Time Machine server both through Finder and through Time Machine preferences under System Preferences. Instead of just entering the password, I changed the password a few times.
    4) I also deleted the Keychain entries between some of these password changes.
    5) Then I went back to Time Machine one last time and set up the remote volume on the Time Machine server and turned it on.
