Container Capacity Check in PO

Hi All,
When creating PO for several items and each item has a dimension for example material ordered in boxes or pallets the space and height for each box is known, based on the international standard for the container capacity is it possible that the system issue a message to inform the user that 99% of the container capacity is reached based on the total entered quantities of the requested materials.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
   You have to maintain the container capacity in some additional field in PO or you have to maintain a z table to maintain the container size based on any other criteria.
   You may use the BAdI: ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST, to check and compare the container capacity and issue message accordingly.
    However, I have doubt that how it will work practically. Because, for comparing the capacity, you will be comparing the volume only. In some cases, even though volume is available (as per calculation), the space wont be enough to accommodate the calculated number of boxes. It depends on the product you are handling. To incorporate this issue, you may give warning message for slightly lower volume, like 94-95%.

Goods receipt Capacity check in PO creation- EHP2

Hi
I have activated business function LOG_MM_CI_1 in our ECC 6.0 system . I have also activated Goods receipt capacity check and subsequent settings in customization . I am able to view the GR capacity check icon in Purchase order creation (ME21N). When I click this icon by selecting the line item , system does not perform any function . I have read in SAP documentation that Vendor can be assigned to door . I am not able to find this assignment in the system . Not sure whether this function is only applicable to retail system and not to SAP R/3 . If some one worked on this functionality , kindly request you to throw some light on this functionality .
with regards,

Same thing is happening to me right now .. did you found out what the error was,, or what was missing ?
Please reply soon as I have a demo on the same in two days..

Capacity check is not working while creation of Production order

HI Gurus,
I want to restict the system that in case of insufficient capacity at the work centers, sysstem should not create the production order. For that i did the setting
1) Unchecked the tick for the Capacity check & enter the profile SAPSFCG013 in the OPJK for the business functions 1 & 2.& also make the setting for the Release order '3".
2) Maintain the same profile in the production profile & maintain that profile in the Mat Master
3) In the CR02, activate the tick for the finite scheduling & uncheck for the can used for several operations.
But i have creted the production orders & at the time of capacity check system is giving the message " Capacity avaiolable at all the work centers. But i check in the CM50, all the work centers are overloaded at the respective date.
But i can create & release the p[orduction order.
Requesting all to give your comments & solutions.
Regards
ACP

ACP,
....after confirming all the operations system is allowing me to save
When you confirm an order, you are by definition saying that the capacity existed for that order (you have just declared to the system that all operatons have been performed, and therefore all capacity was available). I can't imagine why you would not wish to save that order, since you must somehow post the physical work that has already been done. Capacity availability check is really only useful when the order to be checked has not yet been executed.
CM50 displays capacity requirements. CM50 does not perform the same function as Capacity availability check. To ensure that all of your orders fall within you capacity constraints, you must perform capacity levelling. Capacity availability check does not work the same as a Material availability check - don't assume that what you know about a material ATP will be applicable for a capacity ATP. Read the help on Capacity levelling. It is not generally possible to stop a manually created production order from being saved, due to any capacity situation, without using an enhancement.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/60/13e308133a11d3bf550000e83235ee/frameset.htm
Naturally, you can use enhancements to have the system meet any business requirement that is not met with the standard Cap Availability check.

Problem in capacity check

Hi guys,
We want to use capacity check functionality in WM. I have done all configuration. We have given capacity as 1,000 kg for the bin type.
In material master, weight is given as 50 kg. It is accepting goods receipt upto 20 nos. it is fine upto this.
if we do migo for 30 nos, what we expect is, 20 nos should go to bin-1 and 10 nos should go to bin-2. But it is giving error that, bin capacity is exceeded.
how to achieve this functionality? Do we need to activate addition to existing stock for this?
Please suggest

Hi,
When you create the TO you make palletization - based on settings on WM2 view of the material master or you can do it manually (override the master data setting or w/o any master data setting).
During TO creation SAP considers the quantity you defined during palletization (e.g. 30 kg) and wants to place this quantity into a storage bin.
So, you have to define the proper quantities during palletization You cannot set SAP - as per my best knowledge - to change this (split the defined quantity) during determination of destination bin.

Capacity check in wm

HI,
I have been working on few strategies in putaway. One of the storage type which uses open storage strategy with mixed, addition to existing are allowed. With capacity check based on material. I have issue at time of creating transfer order. please consider the below case and explain me how to get rid of this error.
For eg: Material , capacity usuage 1.0
total capactity of bin 100.
Goods receipt for 110 quantity ,
At time of creating TO based on material document the system gives error " No destination storage bin to be found in strage type". I thought system will put 100 in one bin and rest 10 quantities in another bin but it doesn't happen.
If i receive quantity 100 or lesser than this quantity system proposes the bin number based on the storage type and storage section search.
--SJ

Hi ,
Thanks steve.
I found that the system is searching for the right bins as per the section indicator. since the capacity is low it gives error"no destination bin found". These bins are empty.
scenario:
when the goods receipt is for 120 ea..
material capacity usuage : 1
bin capacity : 100.
for the above scenario , is it possible to split these quantity in such a way that the system puts 100 in one bin and 20 in another bin.

SAP WM -Capacity check

Hi
Help me to solve this issue.Iam trying to do stock palcement for a material whose Base UOM is Each and Odering UOM is "CAR", CAR=12 EA.Iam trying to place the material intially in the fixed bin ,if the fixed bin is full place in the rack area.
Iam using capacty indicator "4" (based on article) for the rack area, defined capacity usage as "1" in the material master and Total capacity as 500 in the storage bins. when i receive 50 cartons means 600 EA ,i expect 480 EA (40 cartons) to be placed in the first bin and the remainaing 120 EA (10 cartons) in the next bin .But system is throwing the error " Bin capacity is too low ".
when enough empty bins are avialbel y the system throws this errors.
The problem is if all the quantity can't be fit in the fixed storage bin due to its capacity then the remaining has to be put in a rack area.
Is the system to be enough intelligent to split the suitable quantity in two parts in order to fill completly the fix storage bin and the remaining to another storage bin.
Help me to solve the issue.
Regards
Kumar

Hi Kumar
Hope you are using Near Picking Bin putaway strategey. If so, you can choose Capacity Check method in storage type as "3 - Check based on maximum quantity per bin in storage type"
As system will check the maximum quantity defined, available quantity in the bin and suggest suitable overflow/reserve bin and not fixed bin
If bin quantity is less than maximum quantity defined in master level and putaway quantity is well within the maximum quantity, system will suggest Fixed bins

Capacity check problem in Project system

hi,
i have some questions for the Capacity check problems in Project System.
1. if one Person is assigned to diffierent Work Centers, for example, person A is assigned to Work Center 01 under Plant 01, and Work Center 02 under Plant 02, how can i do the Capacity check?
if i want to use A of Work Center 01 in the Project, the System will only check the Capacity of 01, or both of 01 and 02?
2. What is the Pooled Capacity?

hi,
1.Capacity check takes place at plant level itself..
2.Pooled capacity:- This is created separately in [u wil find in PP] and this capacity can be used by different work centers.

Capacity check during Planned order to production order conversion

Hello Gurus,
I have a strange situation during capacity check.
While Converting the planned order to Production order, I release the order and I don't get any warning. All work centers are available
But for the same material/quantity/dates, if I create the Production order manually, release it, system check the capacity and I got the message the Capacity Over loaded (which is correct also as there are overload on the work centers).
My question is why I am not getting this message while converting the planned order to production order.
There are overload on the work centers and manual creation of Production order is working fine, but problem is during planned order to production order conversion.
For information, I have maintained Finite scheduling indicator in OPKP, capacity availability indicator "NO CHECK" is also blank in OPJK.
It will be grateful if you can please help me here.
Thanks in advance,
Sandeep Kumar

Hi KK,
Thanks for your feedback.
I have checked all these settings but still no success.
I am surprised but it is not a customizing issue I believe, because capacity is checked in Dev client while converting planned order to production order. I am facing this issue only in Staging client.
Master Data is same. In CM01, in Quality(Staging) client, it is showing overload. while creating production order, it shows overload but only when convert from planned order to production order, it does not show overload .
Please suggest what else I need to check.
thanks in advance.

Rough-cut Capacity Check at any level on the Plng Hierarchy ??

Fellow Experts,
I have the following Planning hierarchy on my self-defined, consistent planning, Info structure:
MFG Plant >> Prod Family >> Materials.
Product Family is a grouping of materials by Machine Cells(Work centers). I've the data available @ the material level & the same is also auto-aggregated at the Prod Family levels. At this point I want to trigger Rough-cut capacity check at the Product Family level.
I've maintained the key-figure on the Info Structure, required data set-up on MC35, config for Scheduling parameters (to do rough-cut planning) & selection ID maintenance for Rough-cut Plng Profile to be picked up. Yet, the system keeps bumping me off with "No Resource Load exists" error.
Is there something wrong I'm doing or my expectations are incorrect?? Could someone help me out here??
Cheers
Anand

HI,
Make sure the capacity planning relevant field is maintained for the Infostructure config setttings in MC7F.

Vendor capacity check when creating PO

Hello Friends.
We have a business process situation where we would like to check Vendor capacity at time of creating PO (NB) for raw materials to ensure that we do not place POs for more than Vendor capacity.
Ideally it would be great if there is any way to check all open PO qty and compare with Vendor capacity at time of placing PO - converting PR to PO or direct PO creation.
We are in ECC 6.00.
Appreciates your comments/suggestions.
Thanks,

Thanks all for your comments but option for contract will not work in our case and here is the reason.
We want to make sure that we do not have open PO qty more than what Vendor can supply at any point of time. Business reason is sometimes there is surge in finished goods demand and MRP will create new PRs for raw materials and planners will keep converting these PRs to PO withouth knowing how much open qty already Vendor has to supply. So if we have somewhere a check point in system where it checks and warn if open PO qty is more than particular limit set somewhere for example, PIR etc.
Please comment.
Thanks in advance - vbhai

Capacity check during sale order creation

hi,
i have the following doubts,
1. During sale order creation i need capacity availability check for that i make settings, its working good,if i put the order in the evening time but system take the start time as morning shift starting time.can any one guide me to take the time as the order creation time. and also help me how the system check the capacity.
2. During sale order creation , if suppose capacity is loaded means it will show a pop up with the name capacities with overload,
Here i need the clarification how the system calculate the requirements and requirements order, capacity load, from where the system get the information for these calculation.
Muthamil

Hello, you are working with a make to order scenario, that means that a planned / production order must be created to address specifically your customer requirement ??
By standard SAP you can have a capacity availabily check once the production order is in the creation phase....but this should be too late for you.....

SE Capacity check

In Our case we developed online module booking program as Webdynpro using SAP delivered HRIQ_STUDENT_BOOKING
but we have following symptom that can not understand.
1) for SE available check we use V_piqsmbooked table.
2) Student see there is available seats and trying to bookin but system send error message saying " there is no available seats
in the event package" but when i check V_PIQSMBOOKED table there are still available seats.
3) this situation only happen not the starting time of module booking but normally when there are few seats(5 availavle seats) available and compttition is very high.
4) finally booking is finished successfully but some of the student meets error message that saying " no seats available in SE.
5) if somebody meet this kind of situation, please recommend what i have to check.

Jin dal,
Did you look into "Buffering Duration for Availability Check in Module" in IMG?

Calculation of container check digit

Dearest All.
i hv a requirement .. i hv to calculate check digit for Conatiners for Export and Import.
i tried a lot but failed.....
the logic is as follow...
Every container-number needs its own check digit. This check digit is the last figure of the container-number, that behind the -.
Of course, you can calculate this check digit yourself.
First start with the prefix.     Then there is the number itself.
This is the simplest part of the calculation.     Last but not least the calculation:
with an example: OOLU 708695.
Each letter of the prefix has its own value:
A     10     J     20     S     30
B     12     K     21     T     31
C     13     L     23     U     32
D     14     M     24     V     34
E     15     N     25     W     35
F     16     O     26     X     36
G     17     P     27     Y     37
H     18     Q     28     Z     38
I     19     R     29
Each figure of the number has its own value.
1     1
2     2
3     3
4     4
5     5
6     6
7     7
8     8
9     9
0     0
We know that:     Now calculate:
O     26     26 X 1 =     26
O     26     26 X 2 =     52
L     23     23 X 4 =     92
U     32     32 X 8 =     256
7     7     7 X 16 =     112
0     0     0 X 32 =     0
8     8     8 X 64 =     512
6     6     6 X 128 =     768
9     9     9 X 256 =     2304
5     5     5 X 512 =     2560
     Total =     6682
Of course we can understand if you don't want to calculate all these check digits by hand.
Therefore we made you a little tool.
Enter the container-number as followed: XXXX123456, just try it.
Container-number:
     Check digit:
     Calculate the check digit           Clear the form
Now divide this total by 11:
6682 / 11 = 607,4545
and take the figures after the comma
and multiply it by 11 to get the check digit.
0,4545 X 11 = 5
The complete container-number is:
OOLU 708695-5

HEY ,
don't get panic
you can do this
go step by step
if you are aware of Dialog programing then you can do this
OR if you want to do in simple basic report then also it is possible just use your logic .
1)   create one module pool
2)   create one screen
   in screen give one button to get EVENT in PAI
in PAI you can write code
now for
albhabets and there numbers you can ceate either one ztable or you can create one internal table with cloumn
albhabet , value
A              20
B              30
etc
also same for
1 ,1
2,2
3,3
etc
when user will enter this number say OOLT 78432
use spilt function to split the entered string   into two string
check the length of BOTH string
using DESCRIBE FUNCTION
NOW UP TO THAT LENGTH
IF LENGHT OF 1ST STRING IS 4
AND LENGTH OF SECOND IS 5
THEN
for 1st character check with albhabet value
get 1st value and multiply with 1
get 2nd and multiply with 2 .
get 3rd and multy with 4 .
and so on .
same for numbers
you can do and
use you logic for other steps
you can do that .
just go step by step how you have explained .
Regards
Deepak.
