Customer-specific production schedules

We have contractual obligations with a major customer that require us to complete production of materials they order a set period of time before their requested ship date. For example, they order material with a requested ship date of 3/1/12 and the contract requires that we complete that material and have it in stock 4 weeks prior to that date.
The same material can be ordered by other customers that do not hold us to that "early completion" arrangement. What options are available in PP-PI that will let us model and automate this circumstance, where production schedules and completion dates can vary by customer?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

B,
I hope you are getting a premium price for having signed that contract.
Generally, MRP will try to schedule the Finish Date of a planned or production order to match the Material Availability date of a Sales order. You would like the MAD of the Sales order to be 4 weeks earlier than the planned Goods Issue Date of the sales order; and you would like it only for specified customers.
In SD, you can use Transportation and Delivery scheduling'. This functionality determines which timing durations are relevant for your sales orders and the associated deliveries. The data items that affect the duration between planned GI date and planned MAD are 'Loading Time' and 'Pick/Pack' processing time.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/dd/5607e7545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
Loading time and Pick Pack processing time are entered in configuration of the Shipping point that is used in your Sales order. Shipping point in the Sales order is in turn determined a few ways; but one of them is by Shipping condition. You can enter the Shipping condition in the Customer master.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/dd/5607cd545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
So, conceptually:
1. Create a Shipping point where the combination of Pick/Pack and loading time is 4 weeks.
2. Create new Shipping condition. Assign it to your customer.
3. Create Shipping Point determination where the combination of the new shipping condition, the loading group, and the plant will determine the New shipping point.
4. Ensure that you are using an ATP check, so that other customers don't 'steal' the stock that has been placed into stock for your '4 week customer'.
Speak to your local SD expert, he should be able to set this up for you with no difficulty.

How to populate customer specific field data in table /SAPAPO/ORDFLDS

Dear Gurus,
I have explained in detail about the problem we face. I guess persons who has implemented enhancement: /SAPAPO/RRP_IO_COL in their system can help me out.
Background:
Purchase requisitions in APO is created by an idoc that comes from a legacy system using BAPI CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_POSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3'.
Business Requirement:
I have a business requirement where I need to populate an additional data 'Original delivery date' from the idoc during PR creation in Product view.
Development:
To achieve the above requirement, we are following the below procedure in our development system.
1. We are using enhancement: /SAPAPO/RRP_IO_COL, method: RRP_USEX_COLS_FILL_01 and RRP_USEX_COLS_GET_TEXT_01 to display an additional field 'Original delivery date' in /sapapo/rrp3 - elements view. This field is restricted to Purchase requisition (Order category: AG) only. We are planning to populate the additional data 'Original delivery date' in this customer specific field and store it in table: /SAPAPO/ORDFLDS at the time of PR creation.
2. Table: /SAPAPO/ORDFLDS is appended with the 'customer specific field'.
3. We couldnt find a document on how the data can be populated in table /SAPAPO/ORDFLDS.
4. How to polulate the live cache data in the table '/APAPO/ORDFLDS' ? ( i.e using connection parameter )?
Appreciate if you can throw me some light on this.
Thanks

Customer specific BOM

Hi,
Is it possible to have production BOM customer specific?
Requirement: I will have BOM customer wise, while converting planned order to production order against sales order. System need to pick BOM against that customer automatically.
I know in standard its not possible. By maintaining production version user can select it. But I want automatically.
Any user exit available?
Regards / US

Like the above poster mentioned you need to use order bom specific to the sales order in CS61 by copying an existing material bom or another order bom as a template. But you need to note the following
The following restrictions apply to order BOMs:
    A result-oriented order BOM is non-configurable. Therefore, you cannot create class items in these bills of material either.
    You canu2019t create alternative BOMs for an order BOM.
    You canu2019t create variant BOMs for an order BOM.
    When you change an order BOM, you can work with change numbers, but not with revision levels.

Customer specific serial number

Hi,
I am creating a customer specific 13 digitt serial number during production order creation. This serial number is getting populated in my production order.
But i could not see this serial number in IQ02.
In this 13 digit serial number last 5 digits are internal number number from system. These 5 digits are getting stored in IQ02.
How can i get the customer specific serial number available in production orders in IQ02.
Thanks,
nandha

Hi,
That's what i am thinking.
Already i am having prodn order- serial number link.
Request you to provide any BAPI 's are available so that i can access ser05 and objk and get the created serial number and pass this to BAPI and create the serial numbers once again in IQ01.
Also how to define and where to define that serial numbers are external.
Thanks,

Same material with diff. Production scheduler profiles

Hi,
I am working on PP-PI, where the same material is being manufactured using separate order types.
To be more specific, one order type for the regular manufacturing & another with Re-work order type. The requirement is such that the Order type dependent parameters & production scheduler profile are different in both the cases. Since my master has the prod. scheduler for regular manufacturing on the material master, even if i select the Re-work order type the system is considering the Settings of the regular manufacturing order.
I need to keep the production scheduler profile of the regular manufacturing order as a default in the material
master due to various reasons. At the same time system should consider the settings for Re-work order only when the specific order type is manually selected during order creation.
Appropriate solution would be of great help, thanks in advance

Hi,
Try using user exit. change the production scheduler profile during order save based on the order type.
check with your technical team.
hope this helps.

How to manage Customer Specific Labelling in SAP?

Hi there - hope you can help.
I am looking for some advice on managing Customer specific labelling in SAP.
Details:
Each product we sell gets labelled.
The labels are material and customer specific.
We currently manage labels (1/ Label Codes and 2/ Label Stock) in an excel spreadsheet - but I am hoping to incorporate it into SAP.
Looking at the CMIR, I can list the label code in the Customer Description field or in the Search Term field (customer material is already used) - but this doesn't feel correct and would only solve part of the issue.
Other companies may have a similar requirement - so my question is, how can I manage the customer / material specific labelling in SAP (both codes
and stock)?
Many thanks
Mada

If EHS is integrated at your clients' place, then I think, you can achieve this requirement as per the below documentation

Customer specific pricing in E Commerce - on R/3

Hi,
I am currently working on a SAP E Commerce project, and we are installing the same on R/3 and NOT CRM.
Regarding product catalogs and pricing i have a question,
- Can we use subtotals in the pricing proceedure to bring in customer specific pricing - currently the product catalog takes SUBTOTAL 1 from the pricing proceedure and there is a coloum for PROMOTIONAL prices, if we were to use the subtotal 2 in the pricing proceedure, cant we bring customer specific pricing on catalog? - wouldnt this mean that you could conveniently skip the IPC part and also the coding that needs to be redone in IPC for all those requirements in the pricing proceedure?
OR
- There is a BADI - BAPI_ADV_MED_GET_PRICES - can this be used since all subtotals are present in the structure.
- is there any specific customizing to be done to get the subtotals into the structure.
If the above BAPI can bring in the subtotals attached to the pricing proceedure, we could display the gross price attached to subotal 1 and the net price attached to any other subtotals 2 to 6, then what could be the need for IPC - if i understood well then it should be that the performance load is transferred from R/3 to IPC.
I also have another question, in E Commerce when the customer logs in to create an order , i see in a demo that there is a SIMULATE or UPDATE button, while pressing this does it mean that there is a read to R/3 that does in the back ground VA01 or sales order create so that the system retrieves the ATP checks and pricing - this would ensure the customer sees his final price + TAXES before he saves the order.?
Thanks,
Jacob

What scenario you are going to implement - B2C or B2B? Lot depends on the scenario you are going to implement.
I also have another question, in E Commerce when the customer logs in to create an order , i see in a demo that there is a SIMULATE or UPDATE button, while pressing this does it mean that there is a read to R/3 that does in the back ground VA01 or sales order create so that the system retrieves the ATP checks and pricing - this would ensure the customer sees his final price + TAXES before he saves the order.?
This makes a call to the Order Simulate BAPI in R/3. And all the ATP and pricing checks are within the limitations of this BAPI. For example if there are some custom modifications to input additional values through popup screens in the R/3 system that could change the price or ATP results in R/3. These changes will not work in the BAPI.
Though we haven't seen any pricing related restrictions, there could be ATP limitations if you are using APO.

Customer specific prices in Catalog SAP ERP E-Commerce

Hi Experts,
We have implemented SAP ERP E-commerce -- ECC 6.0 ISA 5.0
Initially we implemented a B2B scenario without TREX engine.
VMC component is active (IPC).
In the catalog we don't see customer specific prices. What are the steps to enable customer specific prices in the catalog.
Do we need TREX engine ?
Do we need catalog views for customers to get customer specific prices.
Please advice.
Thanks and Regards,
Ram

Hello Ram,
Maybe have a read of thread Prices on Product catalog for e-Commerce R/3 this contains some helpful information.

B2C scenario customer specific discount when customer login to the B2C site

Hi E-Commerce gurus,
We want to implement a customer specific discount scenario when the customer login to the B2C web site afterwards that easily see the customer specific discount as soon as duration of the login process. We have also succeed sales org-material     scenario that according to our given below function module calculates a discount rate covers all the material within the related sales organization and also shows the indicator of discount rate on the every material pictures at the web site.
Moreover we have configured an access sequence for condition ZB2I(discount condition) that related with Sales Org.-Customer then we replicate the CNACRMPRCUS666 condition table from ECC to CRM with all values but we can not calculate and display the discount rate on the web site when the customer log on the site and/or going to the basket.
Is there any available BADI, BAPI on ABAP and JAVA Stack. How can we display the spesific customer discount rate when the customer log on the site and/or going to the basket?
Kind Regards,
Fahrettin

Hi,
As per my knowledge if you want to implement customer specific discount then you should use ISA B2B instead of ISA B2C. ISA B2B gives you this facility which you want to implement on B2C.
Also How you will distinguish User in B2C to display specific prise. Your discount price is based on Sales Org or base on user?
As your ABAP program is working fine but you are not getting it on web site then you have to write custom java code and collect all the required information on ISA side then pass it to RFC's import parameter and get the result back and display result on ISA B2C.

XI/PI ANSI/ISA-95 Content For Production Schedule; Production Performance

Hello experts,
Can you please let me know what the correct name of the package is on SAP Market Place for the pre-defined ANSI/ISA-95 Content (for Production Schedules; Production Performance; Maintenance Requests;Maintenance Workorders etc. for SAP MII scenarios) .
Thanks and regards,
Brendon

Hi Brendon,
If you are trying to find out packages for MII, the best link is this: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/90537bfe-fd6b-2910-fda3-b04f1177c51e.

NOTE: It requires a S user and also SDN user to download.
I tried to find out what ANSI/ISA-95 refers and I guess what you need is into PP templates into the link above. It doesnu2019t make sense u201CXI contentu201D if you need MII content, my advice is trying to download and install into your MII this templatesu2026

Details about Master production Scheduling & Variant configuration

1) What are the steps for Master Production Scheduling (MPS)?
2) What are the steps for Variant Configuration?

Hi,
MPS:
With in your planning time fence (maintained in mat master ) , you will get firmed planned orders because your MRP Type P1 - P4 has firming type.
And the firmed planned orders will not change after next MRP run.
You have to set MRP Type p1 - p4. acc to firming type. in ur mat master.
Then run MPS .It is generally for important products and it is run single level.Because it will not change your procurement proposals as it has firming type.So you get effective planning for your imp products.
Variant configuration:
Go to mm01 create a material and in bd2 view mark the check box material is configurable and then save the material and go to ct04 create chara.
Go to cl01 and create class with class type 300 and assign the charac. to it
Go to tcode cu41 create the profile using material code and assign the class to it
then got tcode mm02 and assign the profile there
Variant configuration material type is KMAT (SAP std), u can use this material type alternately u can mark the indicator in basic data 2 view ->client specific configuration->Material is configurable tick.

Is TREX required for the customer specific catalog views in SAP ERP E-com

Hi gurus,
I see there are few ramp-up sap notes for enabling the customer specific catalog views of Product catalog in SAP ERP E-commerce scenario.
Any one who has already implemented them know if TREX is mandatory for having catalog views?
specifically for XECOM 5.0 and ECC 6.0
Thank you

See [Note 696095 - ISA R/3 4.0: Collective note on Catalog Views|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/696095]
See the first line in the Reasons and Prerequisites:
Important: The catalog views functionality is only available from ISA 4.0 SP4 on, we recommend to use the latest SP. It is also only available with TREX as catalog engine
This is true for recent versions too.
The requirement is behind how the solution is implemented. VIEWS_ID is actually published to TREX for optimized extraction of customer views.

Standard BAPI/RFC for customer specific pricing

Hi all,
We have a requirement for getting the customer specific pricing for a product. .We have few customers who are privelaged of procuring materials at a lesser price than others.We need a procedure or functionality that will pick this discounted price on the product that is raised by the privelaged customer.
Please let me know if there is any Standard BAPI or RFC for this requirement
Keerthi

Hi,
There is nothing called customer specific pricing in SAP and there is no BAPI to handle pricing for any specific entity.
These things need to be configured in access sequence, condition tables, condition types etc and you have to configure pricing in such a way that the pricing elements are common for everybody but depending on the situation, some customer will get materials for lesser price than others by creating condition records as applicable for each customer.
You have to first configure the pricing procedure.
Then while maintaining condition records, you have to maintain prices for specific customers where youcan maintain lesser prices. For all others you can maintain normal prices. For example for c.type PR00, you can have two tables in the access sequence. One table may be Sales org/D.C/Div/Customer/Material and the second table can be S.Org/D.C./Div/Material
Now maintain a condition record like
5001/00/00/CUSTOMER A/MATERIAL A Value is 80
5001/00/00/Material A Value is 100
If condition records are maintained like this, the customer A alone will get the material for Rs.80 while all others will get it for Rs.100
Hope this helps you. If you have specific doubts, pls lemme know.
