Creation Profile in Scheduling Agreement and Schedule LIne

Dear Experts,
Currently I'm working on Scheduling Agreement and Schedule Line.In standard SAP gives the provision of creation profile.I've gone through the SAP help documentation but I'm not clear on that.I've few doubts on creation profile.
1. I've created a profile say XXXX for 14 days JIT and 6 months Forecast.And I maintain the same on Scheduling Agreement additional data.
2.I'm creating delivery schedule respect ot Scheduling agrrement.
3. I maintain the aggregation horiozon in creation profile as 10 days daily aggregation for JIT and 120 days for monthly aggregation for forecast.
4.I run MRP for the header material and I maintain the necessary SA number in Source list.
5. After MRP run I'm not getting the respective schedule lines for JIT and Forecast.
6. What is the use of creation profile in Scheduling Agrrement and schedule line and is it determine ant schedule lines after MRP run.
Please clarify me on creaion profile.
Thanks in advance

Dear Experts,

From Standard SAP help documentation I'm not convince.

SCHEDULING AGREEMENT AND SCHEDULING LINE CREATION

Hello Guys,
I trying creating a scheduling agreement(SA) for vendor & material combination.
I have created a Scheduling agreement in ME31L then maintained in ME38.
In ME38 i have also mentioned the delivery date. when i am checking EKKO for Purchasing document , its created with the delivery date specified.
My question is how to create a schedule line ? Do we need to maintain a source list of that material, plant and vendor.
If we have the source list maintained, then what is the next step after SA is created and maintained.
Do we need to do MIGO? because i tested by creating one SA in ME31L and maintained in ME38. I mentioned the delivery date as today and when i checked EKKO table the Purchasing document is created.
Do i need to create a Purchase Order?
If no then do i need to do MIGO? If i need to do MIGO, for what reference do i need to do MIGO???
My client never maintained a Scheduling agreement, they want the scheduled lines to be created and sent to vendor and we need to receive the goods on specified delivery date.
Help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
You need to make a distinction between the scheduling agreement (ME31L/ME32L) and the delivery schedule creation (ME38/ME84)
With ME31L you create the scheduling agreement. In the scheduling agreement which is created for a vendor you maintain the parts that you will order at this vendor, the target quantity that you will order over a certain period and the price.
In ME38 you use the scheduling agreement number that is created with ME31L to create schedule lines (manually). These schedule lines consist of a date and an quantity. This is the data that needs to be transmitted to the vendor and against which the vendor is shipping the ordered materials.
Once the vendor ships the materials you post the goods receipt in Migo against the scheduling agreement number.
That is the basic working of the scheduling agreement and the delivery schedule.
Now some remarks.
You need to set-up the required output conditions for transmitting the data to the vendor either via print, fax, email or EDI.
You can do this manually in each scheduling agreement and each release but typically you maintain the output condition records.
For scheduling agreement contract (ME31L) you use transaction MN07.
For the delivery schedule (ME38/ME84) you use transaction MN10.
In order for you to be able to post the goods receipt the delivery schedule needs to have been transmitted otherwise you will get a message that not requirement are found when trying to post goods receipt.
Also the goods receipt can only be posted if the requirements are valid on the day that you are performing MIGO. This means if you would post GR today then the open requirements in the scheduling agreement need to be for today or already from previous dates. The system will not allow you to post GR for quantities that are only due tomorrow (if this is required a user exit needs to be set-up).
If you want schedule lines created via MRP then you need to set-up a source list using ME01. You have to make sure that the MRP key is set to 2 in orer for the system to generate schedule lines and you also have to make sure that you have the correct MRP parameters set-up.
You can use ME84 to transmit the delivery schedule lines generated by MRP if no changes are required. With the ME84 you can transmit multiple releases at once, however this transaction can not be used to make manual changes to the MRP proposal.
The scheduling agreement offers lot's more possibilities but the above should get you going with the basics.
Hope this will help you on your way.

Scheduling Agreement Vs Schedule Lines

Dera All,
ECC 6.0
We are working on Scheduling agreement and schdelue line for Raw Material Procurement , for this we have created the Scheduling agreemnt for vendor say for 100 kg for next 12 months, and maintained the source list in ME01 with "2" to get the schedule lines auto generation once we run the MRP.
Dependenet requirement for next 12 months = 1200
After MRP run the schedule lines are generating in ME38 for all 12 months = 1200 kg , but we have maintained the schedule agreement for 100 kg only , so can we restrict system to generate the schedule lines in ME38 for 100 kg only ?
I mean in ME38 schedule lines should not plant More than scheduling agreement
Pls help me to resolve this .....
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Rajesh patil

Hi, Not sure of any work around.
Post-ME38 phase SAP gives the option of ensuring that 'Scheduled quantity & & greater than target quantity & &' with the 06/067 message and this requirement is Pre-ME38 phase.
A similar requirement got raised today after your response, in the MM forum, and it also received the same response.

Hi Sreedhar,
Scheduling Agreement with Delivery Schedules
Definition
An outline agreement that is created for one or more materials and outlines the overall expected quantity of the material(s) to be delivered to the customer over a specific period of time.
Use
The scheduling agreement is used as a basis for delivering a material. The customer sends in scheduling agreement releases, referred to as delivery schedules, at regular intervals to release a quantity of the material.
Structure
The structure of scheduling agreements with delivery schedules resemble that of other sales documents in the R/3 System, in particular the standard scheduling agreement.
Data that applies to the entire document appears in the header; data about materials appears at item level; and delivery dates and quantities appear in the schedule lines within the delivery schedule. Additionally, the system maintains a history that permits you to compare and contrast various generations of delivery schedules.
Integration
Data in scheduling agreements comes from three sources:
The customer sends in requested quantities and dates, normally by Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
The component supplier enters data manually
The system automatically copies data into the scheduling agreement from master records

Scheduling Agreement - Delivery schedule line number

Hi,
I am developing a report to show the Goods receipt postings for each delivery schedules of Schedule agreements.
I am not able to find Delivery Schedules line(EKET-ETENR) in Material document table(MSEG).
How do we exactly link the GR quantity to Scheduling agreement Delivery schedules.
We have line item number but not delivery schedules.
GR quantity may be posted to different delivery scheules and for some SAs when the MRP Runs it is positng randomly.
Is there function to find the link,
Searched EKBE, EKET, MSEG and other tables also.
Appreciate your help <offer removed by moderator>.

Hi Shravan,
Thanks for answering, I checked those two tables EKEH, EKEK are release tables. We have some SAs without release documentation. I have to find the delivery schedules using the GR document to which delivery schedules the qty it is delivering.
It is not posting the qty from top of schedules, for some SAs it posted randomly.
Any other ideas or any function modules,
In BW it is possible using extractor but we need in R/3
Thanks,

Difference between Scheduling agreement delivery schedule and PO delivery s

Dear All,
Please tell the difference between the Scheduling agreement delivey schedule and PO delivery schdule.
In PO itself, we can give the delivery schedule.
Then what is the purpose of making scheduling agreement and maintain schedule in ME38?
Regards

Hi,
Difference between Scheduling agreement and PO is while PO is a legal document whatever the delivery schedules you mention in PO, you are liable to pay for the entire qty in case of cancellation
In case of scheduling agreement, we have Firm Zone and Tradeoff Zone to provide some cushion against paying for the entire qty you have ordered
Firm zone: (go-ahead for production)
If the date of a schedule line lies within the firm zone, the vendor has the go-ahead to produce the relevant quantity with the assurance that the orderer will bear any and all material and production costs associated with the scheduled quantity in the event of subsequent cancellation by the latter.
Trade-off zone: (go-ahead for procurement of input materials)
If the date of a schedule line lies within the trade-off zone, the vendor has the go-ahead to purchase any input materials necessary to produce the scheduled quantity. The orderer will recompense him in full for such outlay (but not for any other production costs) in the event that he should subsequently cancel the scheduled quantity.
Schedule lines that lie beyond the firm and trade-off zones fall within the planning zone (forecast zone) and are for rough guidance only, being without any commitment on the part of the orderer.
In case of PO if you want to cancel the order, you are liable to pay for the entire quantity, while in case of Scheduling agreement if you want to cancel the schedule and if the days fall in Firm zone or trade off zone or planning zone you have to pay only for raw materials or assembled products according to the above description

Exit for role determination via exit for scheduling agreement and contract?

Hi..
I have a requirement to fetch the agents in run-time for PO,PR,SCHEDULE AGREEMENT, CONTRACT..
For PO i am using EXIT : - M06E0005
For PR release i am using EXIT :- M06B0001
By using above 2 exits i am getting the agents at run-time...
Same way i need the EXIT for SCHEDULE AGREEMENT and CONTRACT..
if there is any EXIT for this please share with me..
Regards,
Imtiaz Khan

Hi Imtiaz,
Ideally you should have your agent determination logic in workflow itself instead of determinining them in EXIT.
Can you tell me why you are determining agents in exit and how you are making use of it ?
Also let us know how your workflows are getting trigger for all these documents.

Hi,
Contract is outline purchasing agreement where you have a contract with the vendor,may be a for a predetermined quantity or predefined value. So everytime you need the matl, you need to make PO ref the contract asking for the delivery of the matl. In such instance when PO is ref with contract its called contract release orders or call off orders. So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME51,ME21 & MIGO,
Scheduling agreement is a long term purchase agreement, where you will keep issuing the delivery schedules whenever there is a change in requirement or at predetermined time intervals. The delivery schedule can be on hour/daily/weekly/monthly basis. SA is also an agreement with the vendor for the supply of matl, may be a quanity or value. The delivery dates will be maintained in ME38 ref the SA which are called delivery schedules.So you can maintain the delivery schedule and communicate the vendor on Forecase basis or JIT basis. And when you need some more matl then will only create SA deliveries using ME38. SA could be of 2 types:- without release documentation-system will transmit the delivery info to the vendor once you save the document.
With release documentation- after creating the delivery schedules you need to create SA release using ME84.So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME38 & MIGO,
Service order or service PO is created with item Category "D" and an account assignment category as per ur requirement. U can not enter ur material here only u have to maintain short text of material. Example: You want to clean the boiler and u given contract to your Vendor. Vendor sends quotation mentioning that Rs.100/hr/Man head. Now how you will measure the cleaning activities of furnace? You can pay to contractor based on the hourly basis/ man head spent in cleaning activities. So in this case create the Purchase Order mentioning "Cleaning" in the short text in Item overview(Acc assignment ' K' or C or P and Item category 'D) and item details " Man Head" Service No , Gross price - Rs.100.00 and unit - hour ( or pick from Service master) and Quantity-number of hours spent by all man head.
The steps to create Service PO are:
1) Maintain Item Category as D & account assignment such as cost center Kor slaes orderC
2) Keep material code field blank.
3) Enter description of service & other fields in the PO Item Overview level. Press Enter.
4) System will prompt you to maintain services at Item Level. Maintain your service master number / service description & other fields (quantity / rate /)
5) Save the PO.

What is the difference between scheduling agreement and delivery schedule

Hi
1. Can anyone explain me the difference between scheduling agreement output
    and scheduling agreement delivey schedule
    Will the both look same in T.code SP02 when seeing the output for a document.
    Can anyone send me T.codes for above ones in purchasing.
2. when seeing the Detailed statement for rebate agreement,there is item number.
    In which table can we see the item number for rebate agreement

Hi,
If you have to deal with more complex situations, you can define a delivery cycle in the material master record in addition to the planning cycle. In so doing, you determine the days on whichthe vendor delivers his goods. The delivery cycle is entered in the material master record as a planning calendar in the Planning calendar field.
You enter a delivery cycle if the delivery date (or the goods receipt date) depends on the day on which you order the goods. For example, you carry out the planning run and place your orders on Mondays and Tuesdays. If you place the order on Monday, the delivery is made on Wednesday, if you wait until Tuesday to place the order, the delivery is not made until Friday
Where as Planning calander is Three character number (numeric or using letters) that specifically identifies a PPS-planning calendar. The difference between Planning calender and delivery cycle is If you have selected the MRP type "MRP" and have set a period lot-sizing procedure according to planning calendar, you enter here which planning calendar is to be used.
If you selected the "time-phased planning" MRP type, the planning calendar that you specify here defines the delivery cycle. This specifies the days on which the vendor delivers the material. You can enter the planning cycle in addition to the delivery cycle

Same BO is getting invoked for Pur. Order, Schedule Agreement and Contract

Hi All,
My Scenario is like this:
For Purchase order, Scheduling Agreement and for Contract the Release Statergy are same. For these three scenarios i have created 3 different workflow templates.
My Purchase order workflow is working fine.
My problem is :
When i create a Schedule agreement or a contract, my PO business object is getting invoked and it goes to error.
I have a doubt:
For all the three scenario's they are using same number range, will this may be one of reason for the above problem???
Kindly help me to resolve the issue.
Thanks and Regards
Balaji E.

Hi,
You can check this link:-
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/abap/workflow+scenario (based on PO change)
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/crm/action%252bprofiles%252bin%252bsap-crm(reason for more than 1 WF trigger)
More than 1 WF trigger, could be that there would be a triggering condition that triggers more than 1 WF. Since further the conditions are not satisfied, this could lead the WF in error state.
Let me know if u still face any issues..!!

Scheduling Agreement Delivery Schedule Maintenance

I have recently been given the task to maintain the delivery schedules
for schedule agreements in the EKET table using data from external
sources. I have been unsuccessful at finding standard interface
techniques (Call Transaction, BAPI, ) to do this. A similar program
already exists at my client site that uses the SAP function
ME_UPDATE_SCHEDULES_DISPO to do this, but I am uncomfortable issuing a call to this function out of context to accomplish these updates.
Can anyone confirm for me that use of this function would essentially be
the same as calling a BAPI (if one existed) and that there should be
little or no risk to our application as a result of using this approach?
Please note that my question concerns scheduling agreements and not
purchase orders. I have found references to BAPIs for scheduling agreement maintenance in release 6.0, but my client is running release 4.7.

hi,
plz go thru following threads
How to pass table as input parameter of a BAPI ?
