Control cycle for KANBAN.

I want to cosume componenets using my KANBAN BINS.
I maintained my supplying areas. and when coming to the control cycle. Do I have to maintain control cycle for each component that I use in maufacturing against each supply area? or is it only for FERTS

Hi,
1. When you tell consume compoenents means you are talking about Goods issue.
2. Kanban needs to be done for a Inhouse prodcued material or externall procured material
3. In both cases it does a Goods receipt and relevant goods issue posting.
4. so if you only need to do consumption it is not possible.
5. Genearlly it can be maitained for the FERT or halbs which has bom, routing releavent master data
6.For the inhouse manufacture kanban below is the highlevel step
7. and wehen you do status cahnges like full to empty a planned order or prod order will be created.
8. when you change status empty to ful then GR will be posted and GI will be done immediatelly ( based on the control cycle)
9. Kindly refer the attached link for further details.

Control cycle for production staging SAP WM

We currently have control cycle for kanban purchase orders. Do I need to create new control cycle production staging. Actually I will be using fixed bin for production consumption. Kindly confirm whether existing control cycle of purchase order can be used.

Material Staging Indicator for Production Supply
The material staging indicator defines the method of how needed materials can be supplied for production with the assistance of the Warehouse Management system.
As with the location coordinates (warehouse number, storage type, and storage bin), the system files this indicator in the control cycle.
The following staging types are supported:
"1": Pick parts
These materials are picked according to the required quantity specified in the production order.
"2": Crate or kanban parts
These materials are always removed from the warehouse in full cases. These can be ordered, for example, as soon as a case of needed parts is emptied in production.
"3": Release order parts
Release order parts are scheduled individually and the quantities are supplied manually to replenishment storage bins based on the requirements of production orders and the stock levels in the scheduled production supply areas.
"4": Manual staging
Materials are staged manually. For example, you can transport individual components using manually created transfer orders, or you can use the bypass method to transport them directly from the goods receipt zone to production. In goods receipt posting, postings are made to the production storage bins from the control cycles.
"0": Not relevant to WM-PP
These materials are not relevant to WM staging. They cannot be requested using the WM system.

A trigger blocking function for control cycle in Kanban

Hi,
I wantet to change the status in Kanban. I get this error u201CA trigger blocking function was defined for the control cycle in the replenishment strategyu201D. I don't want to set a period of blocking function. how can I deactivate it.
Thanks

Hi,
Pls. check the following setting :
First in PK13n ( KANBAN Board) check whether X is marked with KANBAN Number e.g. 1X.
If so then replenishment will not be triggered because KANBAN is locked.
To unlock the KANBAN pls do the following :
Go to -
> PKMC ( Control Cycle Maintanance) in Change Mode----> Select Control Cycle -> Go to Display Control Cycle ( Glass Icon)--> on top of details of kanban cycle choose option ---> Display Kanbans ( Spectacle Icon )
Select it and go inside : Inside pop up appearing check first Column : Lkln ( Lock Indicator).
Remove the tick in check box of lock indicator for respective KANBAN for which you want to trigger replenishment.
Pls. try above settings and revert back if still problem persists.
Reward if problem solved.

Tejas

Creation of control cycles for lean WH

Hi All,
Is it possible to create control cycles (backflush) for LWH, if so how?

HI ,
There is one more way to create control cycle.
1. PK05 - create supply area ( earlier explained the procedure)
2. PKMC - enter plant - go to change mode ( click on change icon ) - in the right hand window - you can see the create / copy icon.
3.click on create icon
4.select option - classic Kanban or event driven kanban
5.enter material/ plant/ supply area.
6.enter no of kanban / qty.
7.In replenishment strategy - select appropiate option ( in our case it is stock transfer)
8.enter - the tab will change from replenishment strategy to stock transfer.
9.enter storage location.
10.enter destination- storage type- bin
11.enter if any additional data required to enter.
12. save- control cycle will get generated.
thanks

Kanban - Control cycle

Hello all!
I am trying to create a control cycle for Kanban in my test system. I have created replenishment strategy in Customizing for Kanban and this was transferred all to my test system. When I want to input the address for a vendor it says: Replenishment strategy in plant ... does not exist.
I suppose there must be a problem with my Replenishment strategy which I have created in Customizing for Kanban. I was not sure about what I need to specify. I have specified plant, type of Procurement:it is an external Procurement, working with Scheduling agreements, Order type - LP, GR - 101, Signal lock- 0. These are all information, which I have specified I was not sure about the rest.
Please could anyone help me ??

Hi,
I answered to few of the threads, hope it will help you, if required any further info please let us know.

SNC Kanban Issue - Control Cycle Master Data

Hi,
We are testing the SNC Kanban scenario with contracts (PO) between ECC & SNC.
We have created a control cycle for the ECC material and have sent the Master Data to SNC. We are now trying to send over the control cycle info to SNC and are getting hte following message when we run KANBAN_MD_TRANSMIT:
"Kanban control cycle 70666: No address data available; processing terminated"
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
regards.

Hi Anjan Bellur
As per the error message, the address details for your supply area are not maintained
Kindly go to the transaction PK05 in r/3 system
For your plant and Production supply area, Shift+F5
Maintain the address details
Then the reported error message will not appear
Best Regards

Issue during creation of control cycle

Dear Gurus,
During creation of control cycle (LPK1), the fields for source information is not appearing in my system.
I compared control cycle in a different ECC system where source information is appearing.
How can make the screen appear in my ECC system.
Please find the screenshot.
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
This thread is further to the thread in Production Planning Forum

Manish,
I do not understand how this going to solve the issue because why we need both KANBAN and WM control cycles for one material withdrawal for production?

Sent control cycles via IDOC

Hi,
I want to use the following IDOCs to execute the KANBAN process in an external system.
Inbound SAP: CONF51 (for Kanban status)
Outbound SAP: PKHD5 (control cycle) + PKHD5 (kanban) information
How can I trigger that the outbound information is sent once a day?
Using a job I guess that is checking what happend the last day in table PKPS. I want to put in 2 fields different information from other tables. How can I do that?
What must be setup to sent out IDOC information from SAP?
I already setup for testing via WE19 the following and it worked:
- Partner system with the relevant outbound message types.
Cheers

SUPPLY AREA & Controlling Cycle

Hello,
I am working with PP REM scenario.
I want to know more about the customizing and master data and Function of following terms.
1. SUPPLY AREA
And
2. Controlling Cycle
Maulik

Dear Maulik,
Dear Maulik,
The Master data required for Kanban production control includes
1.Supply Area:A supply area is an interim storage location on the shop floor which is used to provide material directly to the
production line or the work center.
The supply area can be a shelving area, an area marked off on the ground, special boxes and so on. Defining the supply areas
for a plant is part of the material flow design for KANBAN. The supply area is defined in Customizing and is assigned the following
objects:
Plant
Storage location
Person responsible
Goods movements are posted to the storage location assigned to the supply area.
One storage location can be assigned to several supply areas, however, one supply area cannot be assigned to several storage locations.
2.Control Cycle: The control cycle defines the relationship between the demand source and the supply source.
The control cycle contains the following control data for KANBAN production:
●     Kanban circulation, that is, the number of kanbans and the quantity per kanban or per call item as well as the number of load carriers
●     The basic data required for automatic kanban calculation, if necessary
●     Replenishment strategy
●     Printing kanbans, if necessary
●     The delivery address, if necessary
3.Replenishment Stragegy: The replenishment strategies define in the control cycle how replenishment is to take place:
Using in-house production
Using external procurement
Using stock transfer
The replenishment strategies also determine whether and which replenishment elements (run schedule quantities, production orders, and so on) are created by the kanban signal.
The replenishment strategy is assigned to the material in the control cycle.
1.You can create the supply area by executing PK05
2.Control cyce can be created using PK01.

Routing and Control Cycle

hi........
Is there any link or connection between Routing and Control Cycle?...........if there is connection then what are the parameter that are interlinked?.......
thanks in advance
regards
Nilesh

It is correct that there are 2 ways of creating control cycles for materials.
One is thru Kanban way and the other is regular WM way of control cycles.Here for WM control cycles again, it is just the way of driving materials to particular supply area while in kanban, the control cycle is driven with kanban signals.
If you want to define Kanban, you need to identify first what way you would want the replenishment to occur.
There are two options, classic and even driven Kanban replenishment. In the former one, the replenishment is triggered thru kanban signal in kanban board and replenishment quantity is equal to what is mentioned in control cycle.
In a event driven kanban, replenishment is triggered the same way but the quanity of replenishment can differ.
Classic KANBAN:
Quantity of material (target quantity) that is specified for a kanban.
Event-driven KANBAN:
Proposed value for the quantity of material in a kanban that is used by the system when no order quantity is entered at a kanban signal.

Independent requirement for KANBAN Calculation

Hi all guru,
Now i can use kanban caculation for Semi-FG (it use dependent requirement for calculate) and i want to calculate FG too! but i don't know how to configure to use independent requirement (forecast) for automatic kanban calculation. who expert know please explain to me?
Thank you in advance...
Edited by: Konnapa on Jul 6, 2009 12:31 PM

Kanban Calculation takes place for requirements at a control cycle
level, specifically at a supply area level.The kanban calculation can
therefore be only carried out for dependent requirements that refer to a
supply area. This supply area is usually assigned to the BOM item but
also can be defined in production version or material master.
Please refer the following documentation:
SAP R/3 Enterprise Application Components
Logistics
    Production Planning and Control (PP)
      PP KANBAN
        PP - KANBAN
          Automatic Kanban Calculation
            Calculating Depndt Reqmts for Automatic Kanban Calculation
I am afraid, independent requirements(PIRs in MD61) entered and also
sales order requirements can only be tracked at a plant level, and hence
cannot be included for Kanban calculation. On the same lines the
dependent requirements that are defined only at a storage location level
are also not included!
In fact KANBAN scenario is suitable for the business where the
procurement need not be planned well in advance, all procurement can be
initiated at any time once KANBAN is empty. This is the most important
characteristic of KANBAN. The introduction of PIRs into this scheme
contradicts this very objective of 'avoiding' lead times in planning.
This is also the reason why KANBAN calculation is more appropriate for
dependent requirements from supply area, characteristic of most
automotive industries, where make-to-stock planning happens mostly at
higher Sub-assembly levels and not at component levels.
Kanban is more relevant to only one subset of MRP requirement elements
i.e, the Dependent requirements.
Also, incase you want to include all storage locations / supply areas
in the plant for the control cycle in question,then in PK02, for the
said control cycle , under Kanban calculation tab, click on "Additional
Requirements Button" and enter the plant (without the storage
location/supply area). In this case,the automatic kanban calculates all
the dependent requirements in the plant.
In automotive releases we have the BADI MPKC_REQ_SELECTION
hooked in the function module PK_READ_DEPENDENT_REQUIREMENTS.
Customers, who want additional requirements such as the ones from APO to
be included for calculation, can program here.
Production Supply area is the key for the requirements to match with the
control cycle. Hope I have clarified your query.

Control cycle mass creation with staging indicator 4

Hi All,
Is there any way to create control cycles in mass for staging indicator other than 3 - rel order parts?

You can define a generic control cycle for manual staging parts and it will be valid for parts w/o control cycle. Please read SAP online help:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/c6/f841494afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
For manual staging, you can define one control cycle per production supply area for all materials. This control cycle is then valid for all the materials in the production supply area, for which you have not defined an individual control cycle.
If you want other mass cration / change tool, you have to develop it on your own.
