Dates for Backwards scheduling when MRP Run

Hello experts,
When MRP run, which calendar does SAP take to schedule planned orders? where could I indicate it?
Thanks in advance.
Laura

Thank you all,
I have checked the calendar that is assigned to my plant, and, as you have said, is the one that is taking into consideration to determine the dates.
In my case, Saturdays and Sundays are not workdays. As a result, every purchase requisition has its release date assigned to a workday. What I have noticed is that although Saturdays and Sundays are not work days, planned delivery time and In-house production time is taking them into consideration to calculate the release date. What I mean is that those two fields are defined as calendar days. Is that correct??
Thanks again.

Scheduling in MRP Run MD02

dear all,
i still confuse for using scheduling in MRP run MD02,
what is the use of using both scheduling type "1" and type "2"?
because if i run the MRP using scheduling type 2, after i generate the planned order, then i can see the capacity planning evaluation,
but not if i run scheduling type 1
if i run the scheduling type 1, how can i analyze the capacity planning?
until now, i always run the scheduling type 2, because i think it is more useful to run scheduling type 2,
so what is the plus and the minus using scheduling type 1 or type 2?
best regards,
MARUFAT

Hi,
In simple words:
The main difference between scheduling type 1 (Basic date scheduling) & Scheduling type 2 (Lead time scheduling & Capacity requirements) is from which records MRP reads the values.
Basic dates is more like a rough scheduling where the values are read from the material master & the exact operation times are not considered or capacity requirements generated.
Lead time scheduling is more precise meaning for each in-house produced material it reads the routing & checks the time maintained for each operation, it then calculates the exact times for each operation based on the working days, shift timings, breaks & also generates capacity requirements.
Now what is the criteria to select... it depends on the business requirement. But the data maintenance for Scheduling type 2 is higher as compared to Scheduling type 1.
What is the benefit for going for Scheduling type 2.... well it gives you a clear picture on your production planning process & how much capacity is required, whether you have the requisite capacity etc etc.
Basic date scheduling is preferred when you do not want such fine control on your production planning process.
For more info refer to SAP help, it should make it more clear.

When MRP run through background process in MDBT open PR and PO not comming?

Hi,
When MRP run through backgroung process in MDBT open PR and PO not coming in MDBT result.
Pls advise accordingaly.
Regards

Ram,
Either I am totally misunderstanding your statements, or your business people are misinformed.
The output of MD01 (MRP total run in foreground) and the output of MDBT (MRP total Run in Background) ARE IDENTICAL, provided you have selected the same parameters.
Neither output contains a discrete listing of open Purchase orders and Purchase requisitions.
Standard output of both MD01 and MDBT are:
1. List of materials processed, with exception messages
2. Statistics
In addition, both of these programs also write MRP records to the MRP databases, provided that the "Display Material List" parameter is set. In this case, both of these programs will produce data that can be further reviewed and managed in MD05 and MD06. MD06 is the tool that most planners use to process the MRP database info.
If you wish to see a listing of the entire MRP results (either MD01 or MDBT), then execute transaction MDLD. This will produce either a spoolfile or a printed document.
For the PO or PR listings, review my earlier suggestions.

'Releasestepcreated' not getting triggered for PR generated through MRP run

Hi,
I have PR Release strategy workflow configured, working well when i try to create PR manually, triggers workflow.
PR's created thorugh MRP run, triggers release strategy but not workflow.
I checked the event trace 'releasestepcreated' event not triggered through MRP run.
Please respond ASAP.
Your inputs will be highly appreciated.

Short Text
Workflow with multiple workitems
Long Text
Refering SAP notes that i came to know that workflow is not supported
through MRP run (md03/md04).we are not using Planned orders.
To trigger workflow for Purchase requisitions created by MRP run, we
have developed a custom report to trigger workflow explicitly.
1.MRP batch job runs every night. After MRP job,planned to schedule
another job to trigger workflow for PR's created MRP run.
2. Used FM 'SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT' to trigger workflow.
3. PR requires 5 levels of approvals based on release strategy
configuration.
4. The issue is PR 'XXX' created and waiting for approval in agent's
inbox.When 2nd day MPR runs same PR 'XXX' effected, another
workitem for the same PR in agent's inbox.
We have multiple workitems for the same PR in agent's Inbox.
If i execute one of the workitem,releases PR, multiple workitems are
getting generated for 2nd level approval for the same PR.
Please give your inputs to resolve this issue.

"Insufficient data for an image" when saving a file

I'm running Acrobat 9.5.0 on a Macbook Pro running OS X 10.6.8.
After scanning a document from my Canon MX882, or opening and editing an existing pdf I get the following error when I try to save the file:
Insufficient data for an image
When I try to save the file again, I get this:
The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (109).
Sometimes the error also has (8) instead of (109).
When this occurs, the thumbnail of the page appears correct in the left pane; however, the content of the page itself is entirely or partially missing.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am also having this problem, especially with scanned documents. Since I need to download scanned documents in my work this is a big problem!Sometimes I can read but not save the document, sometimes one or two of the pages will be blank from the start. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10). I tried reducing the page zoom, a suggested workaround on this page: Acrobat: “Insufficient data for an image” error after updating to 10.1.4 or 9.5.2, but that did not help at all. FWIW I use a Windows 8.1 PC with 4 GB RAM. I usually download PDFs from the internet using Firefox.

How to generate a list of pick dates for all scheduled deliveries?

Hi!
How to generate a list of pick dates for all scheduled deliveries?
What all the tables involved?
Thanks
Imran.

Thanks for the suggestion concerning the file path. And certainly it would have been nice to have done this before beginning. However this is a project that has been around for quite a while, and the files have been moved into different bins. And now the project sequence is being revised.
So the problem is, worded slightly differently, how can I search all of the bins for the files that are used just by this sequence, ignoring the files which are used by other sequences? Or, how can I get a list of the file paths of the files that are used in the sequence?

Calculation of start date with backward scheduling

Dear all,
I am facing an issue related to backward scheduling. I have requirement in which whenever backward scheduling is used, system should calculate from last activity to first for calculation of schedules which is fine. But when running scheduling i am giving finish date as input and system is always using start date as current date and not calculation last date from last. For example if i input finish date as 15 feb 2015, and there is only one activity of 15 days, system should count start date from 1 feb 2015. Please help me how i can achieve this, currently its always putting start date as current date.
My current settings are--
Project definition- WBS Scheduling profile- Backward scheduling
                              scheduling scenario- Free scheduling
Network-      Planning type- basic dates
                    Scheduling type- Backward
Please help.
Thanks

Dear all, this issue is resloved. Reason was that by default i am using forward scheduling for all project but in case of backward scheduling, user change schedule type at project definition and network. I was removing start date and putting finish date and running scheduling. Missing step from my side was i need to first copy date from top to down than run scheduling again.
Thanks.

Scheduling agreement MRP run

Hi All,
We use Scheduling agreements for purchasing spare parts. The nightly MRP run checks the warehouse requirements and creates delivery schedule line to scheduling agreement.
Now the MRP run creates unnecessary delivery schedule lines to scheduling agreement if the earlier created delivery schedule line's delivery date has been changed manually.
Today the MRP run finds requirement for article XYZ and creates the delivery schedule line, where delivery date is 2.9.2008 (determined from articles basic data).
The Vendor confirms the delivery date as 3.10.2008 and the purchaser changes manually (transaction ME38) the delivery date to delivery schedule line accordingly and prints the created message.
The next MRP run creates new delivery schedule line, where delivery date is again 2.9.2008.
After that there are two open delivery schedule lines for article XYZ with delivery dates 3.10.2008 and 2.9.2008.
Why the MRP run does not notice the existing delivery schedule line with the new delivery date 3.10.2008?

Basic finish date earlier than basic start date while backward scheduling

I am encountering an issue where in when I am selecting backward scheduling for a process order and I am entering the Basic finish date, afte which system is giving me a Basic startdate which is after the basic finish date.
For eg:- When i give the basic finish date as 08.12.2011, system is giving me basic start date as 09.12.2011
I have checked the recipe of the material. In the recipe one major flaw that i found out was that all the activity timings were maintained as 0. But when i created a similar scenario in the testing client, i am not getting the issue.
Please help.

Hi,
Check what is maintawined in number of days the start day is allowed to be in the past in scheduling parameters of the order type, in OPU3. If there is an opening float defined in schedule margin key of the order, and concerning this float backward scheduling finds a start date which falls into past, lead time scheduling will automatically switch to forward scheduling starting from today. 9.12.2011 could have been deducted this way. Also check the factory calendar if days upto 9.12.2011 are defined as working days.
Regards.

Scheduling the MRP run

I have configured in the system for a Re-order point planning MRP run. But I have to execute the MRP run manually through MD03 transaction. Is it possible to schedule it ,eans system will execute MRP run automatically at a scheduled day of a month?
Please advice.
Thanks
Satya

hi,
I don't see any direct solution for it...
but indirectly,
Try to remove the line item ie. source from the source ...and try again...
its not possible to do via changing the dates...nor any source doc...system still create the procurment...
also try via changing the MRP indicator in the source list to NO MRP...
let me know updates..

Event not getting triggered for PR generated through MRP run

Hi All,
Could anyone let me know how to get a workflow triggered for the ReleaseStepCreated event (obj - bus2105) when the PR is created through MRP run. The MD02 control paramters have the value '1'.
Interstingly the workflow triggers when the value is set to '2' or '3'.
Thanks,
Ameekar

Thanks Aman,
I checked field restrictions but there are none there. Actually i checked them for other object 'AOOMARA' which is being thrown as an exception when i am creating the PR through MRP run.
Exception says -> field not maintained.
So i guess, i need to maintain the field for Change Document but i am not sure how. COuld you please aid me with that.
Thanks A lot !!

Date format becomes incorrect when you run check option on portal

Hi,
We have a report which has Date variable in selection screen. When we enter selection as interval and then when we click on Check option before executing the report, the date format becomes garbage.
Here is an example:
This is what I enter in Date variable :
Date : 01/01/2001-01/01/2010
After that when I click on CHECK option, the system automatically converts the first date into garbage value i.e. 01/01/2001 will be converted to 1//20/01/0
This only happens when we run report in Portal 7.0 When we try to run similar report using default web template of BW 3.5, it works fine.
Has anybody faced similar problem ? We are on Portal Java SP13 with Patch 6.
Thanks,
Parin Gandhi.

Thanks Frank for a quick reply.
I have used the SimpleDateFormat for formatting with the pattern as, "MM/dd/yyyy" and it is working fine if user enters 4 digit year.
However, for a entry with 2 digits for a year e.g. 04/10/07 when i parse the date using SimpleDateFormat,it is giving me date as 04/10/0007.
Is there a way by means of which i could force the user to enter 4 digits for the year?
I have tried using dateStyle attribute of <af:convertDateTime> tag with 'shortish' as its value, it converts a 2 digit year into 4digit on the browser side & displays on the screen e.g. if user enters 04/10/07 it will appear as 04/10/2007 on the screen however, in value change listener method, i could see date as 04/10/0007.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Rounding of Decimal for dependent requirement During MRP Run

Hello Experts,
I have the following scenario:
We are currently enabling Characteristic Based Planning in our system.
Our one component is selected when two characteristic values are met through object dependencies.
Ex: Component A = Char A= '002' and Char B ='002'
Now we have given the following Usage Probability for the two characteristic:
Char A = 20%
Char B = 15%
And the total PIR quantity is 25 Pcs for Configurable Header.
With the above usage probability and PIR Qty, We have a dependent requirement of 0.75 Ea
((20% X 15%) of 25 Pcs) = 3% of 25 Pcs = 0.75 Ea of the component
Now during MRP Run I want to round the dependent Requiremnet to 1 Ea instead of 0.75 Ea.
Any suggestion towards the solution will be appreciated.
Regards,
Vinod

Hi Vivek,
As mentioned we are using Characteristic Based Planning.
The component is selected based on a Selection comdition which is as follows:
Component 721290201000 = $PARENT.BCS_RL_LINE_LOADER = '002' and $PARENT.BCS_RL_WAFER_VENDOR ='002'
When the above two conditions are met the component is selected.
In Characteristic Based Planning we give percentages (Usage Probabality) to the characteristic values like:
$PARENT.BCS_RL_LINE_LOADER/'002' =20%
$PARENT.BCS_RL_WAFER_VENDOR/'002'= 30%
For the Parent which is a KMAT Material we maintain the PIR say 40 Qty.
Now the component qty is calculated as follows:
721290201000 =(20% X 30%) of 40 Qty of parent
721290201000 =(6%) of 40 Qty of parent
721290201000 = 2.4 Qty of component is the dependent req.
Now my requirent is to round the dependent requirenment to 3 during MRP Run. Please note that the purchase requisition got from the above dependent requirement is rounded to 3 qty.
Now I want to round the dependent requirement.

Vinod
