Creating a Customer Independent Requirement-MD81

Hi
I'm trying to create a CIR for materials maintained with strategy-40 and 63. Which Requirement Types will be best suited for such strategies and is it mandatory to maintain the requirement type?
Further proceeding the document is incomplete while saving and asks for a WBS billing element. what significance does a WBS Billing element have in CIR?
Ignoring the incompletion if I save the CIR, it doesnot appear in the Stock/Requirements List (MD04)
can someone help me with this situation??also pls clarify what difference lies between a CIR and a Sales Order??
Thanks in advance,

SALES ORDER AND CUSTOMER INDEPENDENT REQUIREMENT

What is the difference between sales order and customer independent requirement?
Where these are used?

Hi Sachin,
If you get an order from your customer you create a sales order in your system. Refering to this SO you can create (e.g.) delivery document and issue your goods from your stock.
In case of PIR (planned independent requirements) you don't know who your customer is. You can use these requirements e.g. for forecasts, MTS environment.
In MTO environment SO will generate PrdOrd, and after the confirmation your goods will get to SO-special stocks from where you can ship them out. You won't produce in this environment independently from SO.
In MTS environmnet you can use both SO and PIR. E.g. in case of planning startegy 11 MRP doesn't calculate with your SO, only PIRs are considered. This strategy is very simple: you input your production plan as PIRs. These PIRs will generate PldOrd, then production orders will be issued and after confirmation your PIRs will disappear. It doesn't matter how many SOs you have, it doen't matter how high your stock levels are...MRP displays them only for information purpose.
In strategy 40 (MTS) both PIRs and SOs (and stock levels) are considered, and (one) purpose of PIRs is to level your production (you will produce even thiough your slaes figure are low > later you can fulfill high demands from stock and you won't have to increase your production quantities). SOs will consume PIRs based on the rules you define.

Hi Gurus,

.is it possible to maintain CIR with specific customer no ?

Hello Venkat,
We cannot help until we know the 'different errors'.
Regarding the second query, the answer should be 'No' because CIR stands for customer independent requirements.

How to associate independent requirements to specific customers in SAP

Hello Experts,
I have a question about customer independent requirements.
My client has some customers for which they expect more sales. So, they want to enter some specific requirements, start producing and want to make sure that they are kept reserved for these customers and do not get consumed by the others.
They do not wish to enter fake sales orders into the system until they actually get the order , nor do they wish to go for scheduling agreements, with these customers.
So, I thought of using customer independent requirements and tried transaction code MD81 but in MD81, there was no place to enter a customer no. anywhere. Without mentioning the customer, how do we ensure that the stock produced shall not get used up by other requirements? We are followng a make-to-stock scenario and planning to run MRP and generate planned orders to carry out the production.
Can anyone please suggest as how to handle this requirement in SAP?
Regards
Papri

Hi,
MD81 is for Customer Independent Requirement and this is a specific requirement from customer.
Production execution happens only after receiving the requirement from the customer i.e. MD81 then rest of the process is same only difference is produced stock ( sale order stock ) is delivered only to the particular customer and It can not be delivered to another customer independent requirement.
In your case it is possible to associate with specific customer because your are creating the requirement through MD81.

Narresh

Planned independent requirements for MTO material

how can i maintain PIRs for an item that has strategy 20 (MTO)? when i try to access MD61, sap tells me that i need a requirements type, however strategy 20 doesnt really have these,

Hi Raf,
If you are using planning strategy 20 (MTO) then directly create sales order
If u r use planning strategy 10, 11, 40 (MTS) then you can use create PIR (planned independent requirements)

Creating Planned Independent Requirements for an MRP Area.

Hi All,
I am trying to enter Planned Independent Requirements for an MRP Area, with requirement type VSE and I get the following error;
"Only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level".
I can enter at the Plant level with no problems.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Kevin.

The following is the excerpt from SAP [Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/81/470a58ddab11d1b55b0000e82de178/frameset.htm] I think you maintained a planning strategy in the MRP view (for the plant) which doesn't support VSE.
You can delete PIRs from an MRP area by deleting the MRP area number from the Creating Planned Independent Requirements screen and recompiling.
When you define the planning strategies and parameters in the material master, these parameters apply to the whole plant, including all the MRP areas within the plant: You cannot maintain the MRP areas separately.
The integration of the MRP area and the assignment of the MRP area in the sales order is supported only by a user exit in the sales and distribution user exit pool.
Sales orders with MRP areas are created irrespective of the availability check control group in the material master.
Customer order processing of production sales orders with the item category (account assignment Step E Single) is only maintained in the MRP area of the plant.
In Customizing and in the MRP area user exit, make sure that when transferring individual sales orders, only requirements types KE, KEK, KEKS, KET, KELV, KEV, KEVV, VSEF, and VSE are generated.
The following requirements types are valid for the MRP area: KE, KEK, KEKS, KET, KELV, KEV, KEVV, VSEF, and VSE.
You cannot plan with preliminary planning materials in the MRP area.
There is no planning strategy for the material segment of the MRP area.
The planning strategy for the material master segment of the plant is assigned to the material segment of the MRP area.
The consumption mode and the periods of adjustment are derived from the plant in the MRP area of the material master.
Only consumption customer requirements with planned independent requirements are allowed: VSF requirements with KSV and VSFB with KSV.

Create independent requirements in SAP R/3 using Java Connectors

Dear Experts,
I am an Developer and have this requirement .
My part is to deliver a program [an EXE program] that can read an input file and create independent requirements in SAP R/3 accordingly using these function Modules.
One thing that is very important to Notice is that, to keep requirements synchronized in SAP with an external requirements plan[flat file] I will have to:
1) Read the existing requirements for a material/plant combination using the BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_GETDETAIL from the Java program and
2.) Update any existing requirements that dont match the external requirements source through BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CHANGE.
3.) Create new requirements using BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE.
Please help me how do I go about this.
Your Help will be appreciated .

Hi
I not understand your question.
¿Need the steps to make the exe program?
1.     Make the JCO communication between Java and SAP R/3
2.     read the flat file and use BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_GET to display detail for planned independent Requirements.
3.     Update any existing requirements that dont match the external requirements source through BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CHANGE
4.     Create new requirements using BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE.
5.     call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
Important message of SAP documentation for BAPI_REQUIREMENT_CREATE > Caution: Method is obsolete as of Release 40A!
Try reading the documentation for this BAPI.

Sales order does not consumpt Independent requirement

Hi Gurus,
My material is as below:
MRP Type: M0
Stategy group:40      Planning with final assembly
Consumption mode :2 Backward and forward consumption
My independent Req is 'VSF Planning with final assembly'
My sales order item category is 'Zwac', rety is using ZWAC-M0-KSV 'Sales order with consumption'
but before i create sales order:
MRP element Received/Requirement quantity
stock
IndReq              100-
After that:
MRP element Received/Requirement quantity
stock
IndReq              100-
Sales order        90-
but i expected like this:
MRP element Received/Requirement quantity
stock
IndReq              10-
Sales order        90-
Do you know what i did wrong , thank you!
Regards,
dragsky

Dear,
If you have planning stategy 40 , then PIR qty will be consumed duirng MRP run if both PIR created with VSF and you have incomming Sales Order qty .Let say you have 100 pc PIR and also 150 pc of sales order , run MRP-MD03 , it will create 150 pc Planned order or PR .
If your using and Sales Order is not getting consumed upon while running MRP , then couple of checks in this case :
1.Is your PIR (created in MD61) "VSF"?
The requirement type should be KSV to consume with VSF. Please check OVZI to check why your item category in Sales Order get the requirement type 041.
Here you must have following set up :
Requirement Class : 041 , Availablity , Requirement Check box Marked and Allocation Indicator-1 .This Alocation indicator basically Controls the consumption of customer requirements with planned independent requirements whereby the customer requirements type is only allocated one consumption strategy.If it blank that means no consumption with customer requirement .
Please check If you want req. type 041 to consume with VSF, then you have the change the configuration of planning strategy. Use path Production -> Production Planning -> Demand Management -> Planned Independent Requirements -> Planning Strategy -> Define Strategy.
2. What is the schedule line category in your SO ?? Is it "CP"? You are using customised item categoery zWAC which may be inharited from WAC-Order /Delivery Requirement (OVZI)
Check and come back.Hope this will address the issue

Independent requirement and dependent requirement

Hi,
Can anybody explain me what is dependent and independent requirement in PP?
thanks

Neha ,
The function of Demand Management is to determine requirement quantities Goods/products.Customer requirements are created in sales order management. To create a demand program, Demand Management uses planned independent requirements and customer requirements.
To create the demand program, you must define the planning strategy for a product. Planning strategies represent the methods of production for planning and manufacturing or procuring a product. Using these strategies, you can decide if production is make-to-order production(MTO) triggered by sales order or if it is not triggered by sales orders i.e make-to-stock production (MTS).
Let me explain with one example.
Finsished product "A" has BOM and BOM items are "B" & " C".
There could be a demand for Product A from customer or from Planned independent requirement . planned independent requirements are maintained in the system (t code MD61). so when you run the MRP for a Finsihed product A it also creates the dependent requirement for items B & C ( B /C are dependents, for product A ). in turn the requirements for the items will be fulfilled by raising the purchase requisition , if procured externally or production order if it is in-house.
hope this explanation is helpful.
Thanks
Kiran
P.S Pls award points if you find the answer is helpful.
hope this

Planned Independent Requirement Not getting displayed in MD04

Hi,
I am assigning material to nwa and doing advance procurement by using procurement type PIR. Reservation is getting created after release of activity but the same is not getting displayed in MD04.
The items of the reservation are getting displayed in MB23.
what could be the reason for this?
Regards,
B P Singh

Hi,
Planned Independent requirements (PI) are normally configured for consumption by 'Dependent' requirements. Hence the PIR would have been replaced by the reservation from 'dependent' requirement. You can test and verify the same in development system.

How to create a Custom List without the column "Title" ?

Maybe this one is easy as it sounds, I just want to know how to create a little list for my SharePoint application featuring 3 columns:
1 - User Name (this should be Person type - UNIQUE + Required)
2 - Report (Memo - Required)
3 - Status (Choice + Required)
The list will be used to allow the users to submit a weekly report and I don't want to include the title because there is no use to me, I know I can hide the column by customizing the list but this sounds very amateur even for a newbie like me (yeah... sounds
so cheap!), since I've been reading a lot about custom content types and I still didn't get the chance to use this properly I was wondering how I could put them to use and I guess the example here would be the best right?
I really spent some time trying but I always end getting the Title even when I try to use custom content types so I'm really giving up and asking for some help at this point.
Thanks a lot for the help!!!

Yes, you can do that. If you need a different content type with your custom fields. Following are the steps : http://www.dotnetcurry.com/ShowArticle.aspx?ID=620
After creating your custom Content Type, Click on the 'Title' filed in your custom content type.
In the 'Column Settings' make it 'Hidden (Will not appear in forms)' and click ok.
Now add this content type to your list/library.
In the list/Library go to setting and 'Advance settings' and make the 'Allow management of Content Type?' as 'yes' and click ok.
Now make default content type not visible from 'Change new button order and default content type' link in the settings page of list/library, and your contet type as 'Default'.
Create a new view, remove the 'Title' field and make that view as 'dafault' view, you can delete the 'All Items' view also if required.
Now whenever user come to that list/Library they will not see the title column and also will not appear in the 'New Item'.
Note : The 'Title' field is mandatory in all the list/library and by default added to the 'All Item' view. So, by doing above steps you are creating a new content type where 'Title' is not mandatory and also not added in default view.

How to create the custom charts?

how to create a custom charts? for example the donut shapes, but for the data can be automatically adjust (like a available charts on keynote)

Keynote and Numbers do not have a tool for making Donut Graphs. There are ways to make them using HTML, but I prefer to cheat:
1 Create your first graph as a pie chart and add a circle of solid color to the center
2. If you need more, take a screenshot of the pie chart with the center fill and drag the screenshot into Preview - in Preview > Select Tool (pulldown from Toolbar) > Instant Alpha and remove the inner filled circle and outer fill then Save As > PNG with Alpha
3. Drag your new hollow shape into Keynote. This chart can be placed over another pie chart with a filled center (the fill should match the background)
Not as graceful as a special tool but can get the job done quickly - changing the data requires starting it over since at least one of your donuts my be an image rather than a pie chart with variable data.
Try it. If you need more specific tools, Google Donut Shaped Charts for starts.
Good luck
