Configuration planning Strategy task bwtn PP/SD Consultant

Hello Consultant
As we known, planning strategy is incdluing two elements( requirements type for PIR; Requirement type for customer requirement) path:SPRO>Production>Production Planning>Demand Management>Planned Independent Requirements>Planning Strategy>Define Strategy)
In you experienced project, if PP consultant was in charge of config "Reqmts type for indep.reqmts" and SD Consultant shoud be in charge of Config"Reqmt type of customer reqmt "?
or PP Consultant should be responsibled for two parts configuration? including(Reqmts type for indep.reqmts/Reqmt type of customer reqmt).
Please advice.

Dear ,
PP consultant is the in charge of Planning Strategy -Define Planning Strategy (SPRO) based on the Requirement Type(OVZH) and Requirement Class(OVZG)  for for sales Item categoery  under basic function of SD module .
Now , most of the parametrs which have activated or relevent from sales side (Req.Transfer ,Account Assingment Categoery , Customer requirement type , Order Type etc) are configured in OVZG by SD consutnat  and same has been assinged to requirement type in ovzg .
Once you did this , PP consultant will decide on the Planning Strategy group in SPRO-MRP-PIR and check wether respective parametrs are flowed in that strategy  .
So i would rather say , its a combine effort based on the clinet requirement .

  • Variant Configuration Planning Strategy

    Hello All,
    We are using Variant configuration and we want to maintain independent requirements for the dependent materials. The main material will be make to order and we want the dependent requirements from the main material to reduce the independent requirements maintained for the dependent materials. Please let what planning stratagies should i use for the main material and dependent materials. Due points will be awarded.

    I don't know if R/3 supports full fledged planning based on characteristics but I do know characteristics based planning can be done in APO. The following documents talks a little bit about planing characteristics in the end in R/3, you may want to take a look at it.

  • When will EK02 appear in the Sales Order?? For different planning strategy?

    Hi Experts,
    In our SAP system ,when you create a sales order with a material which planning strategy is
    50 Planning without final assembly (MTO) , in the item detail screen , on the "Conditions"
    TAB, we will see condition type EK02 and its value.
    But when I create a sales order with a material which planning strategy is 40 Planning with
    final assembly (MTS),in the item detail screen , on the "Conditions" TAB, condition type
    EK02 will not appear.
    I have checked the customizing of our SAP system ,as follows:
    For planning strategy 50, the Requirements class is "045"(MTO val. with cons.),and on the
    configuration screen of Requirements class,we see "Condition type for copying costs from
    line items" (CndTyLineItems) is null ,no value ,not "EK02".
    And for planning strategy 50,the the Requirements class is "050"(Warehouse consumpt.) and
    and on the configuration screen of Requirements class,we see "Condition type for copying
    costs from line items" (CndTyLineItems) is also null ,no value ,not "EK02".
    And on the configuration screen of Sale Order Type screen(VOV8), we see  "Condition type for
    copying costs from line items" (CndTyLineItems) is "EK02" for all the sales order type we
    have used.
    So I am very confused.
    Why material with planning strategy 40 there is no EK02 in the sales order?
    Why material with planning strategy 50 there is EK02 in the sales order?
    Where is the EK02 come from? The requriement class ? Or the Salse order Type?
    Are there any other customizing for Condition type EK02 determination?
    Thanks very for any reply!!

    Hi,
    In MTO you will create Process order.
    And to Produce a Item you use Sub components that is Raw material
    That raw material cost is EK02 which you maintain in the Material Master - Accounting View 1.
    You can see cost in the Process Order also .

  • MRP exception handling for planning strategy 52

    Hi All,
            How to handing MRP exception in Mass? For example, header material having two sub assembly and 3 raw materials in it's BOM. As per planning strategy 52, we maintain PIR for finished part, if we run MRP planning will be generated with respect to Planned Independent Requirement(PIR). Now, the problem is the higher/upper level material planing date is lower than low level material, It means Semi finished material(SF2) planning date is for example ( 15 june 2014) at the same time another lower level semi finished material (SF1) planning date is (18 june 2014). In this case without completing SF1, we can't produce SF2 because SF1 is an component of SF2. In the same way, system will propose the planning info for all raw material/semi finished. How we will handle this exception in mass since we using more materials in shop floor.Hence, it's really hard to planner to adjust the planing date for each and every material wise. How to handle/adjust this MRP exception? How to make system to calculate dependent materials availability to calculate next level material's planning date (start,end)? We understand that we have to maintain proper master information like in-house production days, planned delivery date, Gr processing date etc., to get planning information. Apart from that how we handle or to get without this kind of exceptional message? Please suggest
    Thanks

    AKS,
    There is absolutely nothing wrong with having exception messages.  Expecting to be able to perform some mass transaction that will magically make all messages "go away" is unreasonable.  In any real life business, there will be new exception messages with every MRP run - sometimes thousands of them.
    These messages indicate that there is something the matter with the plan; but they don't really tell you what is the best way to fix the plan.  There may not be an easy way to fix this plan, it may actually require having your planners examine each PIR, trace down the BOM, and determine what is the best solution for that PIR.  Once you have decided what is wrong with your plan, then ask me what mass changes are available to fix THAT problem.
    Now, to your question.  If you want all the dates to line up, then allow dates in the past. Although this solution doesn't give you results that are any more realistic than your current solution, you will eliminate most of the exception message 10's; and, if all your master data is correct, most of the supply and demand dates should line up.  The messages will be replaced with a boatload of "new, and start date in the past" or similar.  You can allow MRP to create procurement proposals with start dates in the past by changing the appropriate settings in OPPQ and/or OPPR.  Also affected by scheduling parameters found in OPU5 and OPU3.
    This is a business decision.  Some planners prefer not to allow dates in the past.  Others just the opposite.  You (or the client, if you are a consultant) have to decide which is best for your company.

  • Planning Strategy 81???

    Dear All,
         My client requirements are,
    1. Based on Sales order planned order(or RS as they are using Repetative mfg backflushing) should be generated for FG.
    2. From FG, requirement for Sub assemblies to be passed in the form of  planned orders and for raw materials PRs should be generated.
    3. once they confirm production using the planned orders they should be knocked off.
    Can any one suggest me the process and strategy to be used..
    Regards,
    HT

    Go ahead with planning strategy 81...the given process in possible.
    1) You need to configure the planned order type PE for the plant in OPU5 transaction.
    2) when you create sales orders automatic planned orders will come for sales parts.
    3) Compoenets availability be cheked and you will get the missing part list if shoratge exists.
    4) According to this you can start procurement by creating PRs or PO and miantain the reuqired stock for backflushing.
    5) If you want PRs from MRP then you need to run MRP for these missing parts manually from MD03. But this not requires as you already having the shortage quantity lists to complete the sales orders.
    6) Do backflushing from MFBF against the sales order from Make to order tab against sales order/planned order.

  • Variant configuration- with strategy 40

    Hi,
    We have gone variant configuration. And our planning strategy is 40 with weekly lot size.
    Now the sales orders are created with different characterisitic values for same material
    EX - sales order 1 - 10 pcs- size 20.
           sales order2-  15 pcs - size 40.
           sales order 3 - 20 pcs - size 30.
    here size is a characteristic.
    The sales orders generated in a week are combined (because of weekly lot size) into one planned order.and into production order.
    The production order thus generated  is combineinng the total quantities of different sales order.
    My question is how the production departtment should how much quantity is of what size.(characteristic).
    Thanks in advance
    Kalyan

    Hello
    As a Best Practice . for VCs you should activate ND in MRP1 - material masteri.e. No Planning , and there is config in SD ( requirement class for Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements ) thru which the Production Order will be created automatically as soon as Sales Order for VC materials in created..
    IMG path -
    Hope it makes sense.
    pl come back in case of further questions..

  • Link between process order and sales order for planning strategy 52

    Hello,
    I investigate the possibility of a link between "sales order" and "planned order / process order" for the usage of planning strategy 52 (planning w/o final assembly, make to stock).
    I know, this is not conform to the basics of planning strategies (EITHER make to order OR make to stock) and I suspect it would be a modification. Of course we have the alternative "make to order" - strategy 50, but we do not want to use individual customer stocks.
    Is anybody there with similar customer requirements or project experiences?
    Thanks in advance,
    Joerg

    Hi Jorg,
    To my understanding if you need hard pegging then in SAP only Individual requirement is possible.
    Or else you need to create a custom transactions/table to identify Sale order and when ever a process order is created by selecting the sale order record, the process order detials should also get updated against that.
    You need to take the help of ABAP expert for this,

  • MRP exception message 64 and planning strategy group 52

    Hi Gurus,
    I have done extensive search online in the forum to find the route cause why we are getting MRP exception message 64 for a specific material in one of our plants. This exception message does not occur for the same materials which is also produced in another plant.
    I was just wondering whether the planning strategy group of 52 in MRP 3 view would have any effect on the frequent occurrence of exception message 64. I know that the 64 message occurs when the routing time is higher than the in house production time. If that's the case where to look for in routing to correct this, apart from this do we need to look at work centers and other details. I'm not a  PP person but still was curious to know see if i could take a shot at it.
    Also the MRP settings that we follow in the plant where this problem does not occur is NETCH, Create PR - 2, Schedule lines - 3, create MRP list - 1, Planning mode - 3, scheduling -2
    in the plant where the 64 message occurs quite often is Netch, Create PR -2, Schedule lines - 3, create MRP list - 1, planning mode - 1, Schdeduliing - 1
    I was  thinking do MRP settings and planning strategy group would have any impact on why we are getting the 64 wexception message
    Because of this 63 exception message, the downstream components are getting wrong signals.
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Hello Ravi
    Generallt, exception message "64 - Production finish after order finish" is triggered when the order start date is in the past and system automatically changes to forward scheduling to calculate the finish date.
    Note 1913017 explains how the order basic date is calculated and adjusted in case of forward scheduling, however, you are using strategy 52 and this is a very special scenario, whever VP planned orders are generated.
    The VP planned orders will always be adjusted to the requirements date even if the requirements date is in the past. This is a special feature in the planning segment, since these orders are only kind of 'virtual' planned orders. These orders only have to provide the demand requirements for the components in time.
    Therefore, there is a relationship between strategy 52 (VP planned order) and the exception message observed.

    Project Plann dept will raise the indent to commercial dept(purchasing)
    procure raw material and they will send to storage location
    production will run MRP and create pln order
    then execution of production
    issue of finished Goods (Hot Mix and WetMix) to projects
    reconcilation of rawmaterial consumption to tht project.
    can any one tell which strategy will suits my client requirment

  • Reg:Planning Strategy 40

    Hi friends,
    i need to know about planning strategy 40.
    For EX:
    1. suppose if we have  planned and created PIR from january to march(quarterly plan) for any product, now if we want to change the plan how the system will behave..can we change the PIR  which we have generated from JANUARY TO march.
    If it is possible to chnage ,,how to change the PIR..what will be the impacts.
    2' Can we create another PIR once again from january to march...or feB to march apart from existing PIR
    3. suppose if i have created PIR from january to march , and splitted into daily  plan, in between if the sales orders comes how this planning strategy 40 will behave.As it is make to stock.
    For Ex:
    We have planned 1000 numbers in the month of january, daily 50numbers production.
    Suppose if we get sales order for another 2000 apart from our planning 1000numbers ,how this planning strategy will behave.
    Thanks in addvance.

    Dear
    Planning startegy 40 works like follows :
    It is basically Consumption of PIR not Reduction of PIR .
    Example :Let say you have  PIR for 1000  for January  and it is appearing in MD04
    Now you have sales order for another 2000  for same month .Here PIR quantity is less than the Sales Order Qty ! Now run MRP -MD03/MD02 -NETCH , 2,1,3,3,2 and check the Result .Here PIR will be vanished and PR/Planned  of 2000PC will be appearing in MD04.So PIR is consumed by Sales Order .
    Now you have   PIR for 2000   and you have sales order for another 1000  for same month .Here PIR quantity is more  than the Sales Order Qty ! If you goto MD04-Sales Order will not appear at all .That means Sales Order is geting fullfilled by PIR deamnd. Now run MRP -MD03/MD02 -NETCH , 2,1,3,3,2 and check the Result .Here Sales will be vanished and PR/Planned  of 2000PC will be appearing in MD04.
    Refer : Re: Industry wise planning strategy usage
    Answer of your questions :
    1.You can goto MD62-Change and add PIR questiy at Material level , Plan Numbers , Product Group Level
    2.You can create but it will update th exsiting motnhly requirement  in the same planning table in MD62
    3.This question is answerd in the above explanation .
    Hope it helps

  • Demand management planning strategy

    Hi there,
    I am trying to set up demand management for simple make to stock. I am using standard requirements type LSF which is linked to requirements class 100.(OMP1) The requirements class has a planning indicator (PLNKZ) set to "1" (net requirements planning) in OMPO. This is what I want as we want the warehouse stock to be taken into account when procurement proposals are generated. The planning strategy assigned to the material master has the "1" setting (net requirements planning). However when I run MRP after entering planned independent requirements for LSF (MD61), the purchasing requisitions proposed are just for the independent requirements and ignore warehouse stock. There is a line in the Stock / Requirements list that says "Gross Requirements Planning" Does anyone know where it is picking up "Gross Requirements Planning" instead of Net Requirements Planning (i.e. check what is in stock before creating procurement proposals)
    Any assistance is appreciated.
    thanks
    D

    Hi Suhas,
    I don't want mixed MRP as such but when I cannot get any procurement proposals (requisitions) when the setting is blank. It may be elsewhere that the procurement proposal is - I am still checking.
    However, when I choose "2" for mixed MRP, it does generate requsitions (but gives me the other problem where warehouse stock is not taken into account)
    The requirements class 100 has an entry "1" for planning indicator and "1" for requirements category. All other columns are blank at the moment. I am in the process of experimenting with these next.
    thanks for your help so far.

  • Cutover planning strategy doc

    Does anybody have Cutover Planning/Strategy document for PI/XI? I do have the ASAP standard.. but I feel there must be one with lot of good information.. please send it to my  gsvas81at gmail dot com

    Hi,
    We restricted from NEUPL................
    When i have gone thru entire process my findings for this problem is as follows
    1) When A planning strategy is changed in a plant?plants the existing/Pending PIRs need to closed or deleted. If there are any PIRs pending the system can not select new req Type automatically.
    2) All the Depending requirements schedule lines and purchase orders for existing PIRs need to be closed before going to new Planning Strategy
    If the user follows this procedure then the system will automatically uses  "Control of Requirements Type Determination " and a required "Req Type" populates in user parameters. otherwise there will be planning inconsistency
    Please correct me if i am wrong

  • Planning strategy for Both scenario of Make to order and make to stock

    Hi
    My client having Both scenario of Make to order and make to stock ,so please explain me step by step which Planning strategy is use for following situation
    1.Forecast the production quantities for the variants and create the PIRs
    2.sales order is created for variants
    3.Planned independent requirements should consumed by incoming sales orders
    Note:If it is MTO scenario i need sales order reference number in production order
    With regards
    Laxmipathi

    Hi,
    You can Define Strategy Group under SPRO>Production>Prod.Planning>PIR>Planning strategy-->define st.Group.
    In this step, you group strategies together into a strategy group. You can determine a main strategy as well as up to seven alternative strategies.
    The main strategy is proposed in demand management or in sales order management and can be overwritten by another planning strategy defined in the strategy group.
    You can allocate the strategy groups to the materials directly in the material master record, or you can allocate the strategy groups to an MRP group and then in a second step allocate the MRP group to the material in the material master record.
    Hope it will help you.

  • Configuration plan for chages in XSL files ?

    During SOA 11g deployment, can we use configuration plan for making changes / override values which are set in transformation XSL files ? Have been getting mixed response on the net, so need to classify on the same.
    Thanks.

    I don't believe you can. There is no specific construct in the config plans for doing that and I believe the search and replace feature only works with WSDLs and XSDs.
