Does Make To Order planning consider any SNP/PPDS Horizons

Guys
Does Make To Order planning consider any SNP/PPDS Horizons unike the Make to Stock scenario planning?
Thanks

Thanks for the response guys.
In RRP3 view, when I look at the Individual project segment demand, I do not see any SNP/PPDS Horizons. However, when I see the demands under the MTS segment, I can see the SNP/PPDS Horizons.
In MTS scenario, I understand that only those orders that falls within PPDS horizon are picked up by PPDS planning and orders outisde SNP horizon are picked up by SNP planning.
However, as MTO is purely PPDS planning, I am just wondering whether SNP or PPDS horizon comes into the picture in this scenario or not.
Further more, my primary concern in MTO scenario is, if PPDS horizon is taken into the picture ( which is usually in the near visible term and < SNP horizon, say 15 days), and as PPDS planning doesn't pick the demand in the MTO segment until the demand falls with in this horizon, aren't we not leveraging the full functionality of procurement planning, as PPDS plans the demand by picking it just before 15 days (in this example) of the original requirement date, and the company might not be able to fulfil the customer order as the replenishment time might be long for this particular product being procured/produced.
So, I am basically leaning towards an understanding that what ever demand that falls in the Individual Customer/Project segment (MTO), it will be picked up PPDS planning regard less of SNP/PPDS horizons.
Please advice, if my understanding is wrong and I would appreciate if you quote some examples which might help me better understand the scenario.
Thanks

Getting error while doing make to order scenario

Hello Sap Gurus,
While doing make to order scenario(strategy 20),when i am giving customer requirement through md81(using reqmt type KE),i am getting the following error,"Receiver category is not allowed by settlement profile SD1."
Could you guys help me in solving this error.In settlement profile SD1 i have checked that valid receivers material,sales order are kept as optional,then also getting error.

Hi Jitendra
Can u confirm what setting is kept against reciever "sales order"? Is it kept as settlement required or optional? Ideally it should be "required"
Also provide the error message number which u are getting

Capacity requirement for long term planning and make to order planning

hello,
anybody please guide me.
my client using make to order scenarion and we are doing regulaly MRP run is MD50 with refernce to sales order.
sales orders planning will follow for 2 to 3 months.
at the same time my client wants to do long term planning also. to analize the capacity.
for that he is creatind planning scenario and multi level planning with MS02 also.
But the problem is when they are checking capacity requirement in cm38 it is showing only planning scenario load only. my client wants existing load and longterm planning load also. so they can plan the planning is sutibale in existing plan.
so how can i get both plan in CM 38or is there any other T.code to get that data.
please suggest me
Thanks & Regards

Hi Pierre and Rajesh,
When we create the simulation version, you have the possibility to choose the short-term planning. My point of view is, you can use the LTP fonction to do your scheduling for ex the next 3 months.
I think it's what Pierre did. Am I right ?
between to scheduling scenario to deliver my customer. With the simulation mode I can do my scheduling + use the MRP simulation to check if the raw material are available or not. Then use the MD04 to do the comparaison (or MS04 to compare between 2 scenario).
But I found 2 problems :
First : I don't find the parameters to show in the graphic MFS0, the planed fix order (I can only see the process order)
Second : When my scheduling is finished, I want to update my operational planning with the simulation version. But I don't want to do article by article : when you have 400 references (raw mat, packaging, finish goods) it's impossible (same issue like Pierre)
Have you found a solution for this 2 points ?

ATD check in TLB does not consider the SNP checking horizon

Hello
I would like to know which BADI or Exit is available to change the available to deploy check logic when the TLB is run.
I would like to take into account the SNP checking horizon.
Thanks
Virginie

Hello Virginie,
I know this post is very old but I chanced upon this thread in SCN and am
interested in your solution to add a Macro in a specific planning view tor a specific location to force ATR to 999999 and ATI to 0. Would you be kind enough to tell me the steps to do this?
Will this require me to create 2 new key figures with a Fixed value (example ATRF with a fixed value of 99999 and ATIF with a fixed value of 0) and then in the planning view, create a macro and set ATR key figure = ATRF key figure and ATI Key Figure = ATIF key figure?
Can I just go to the specific planning view and fixed the value of ATR there to 99999 and ATI to 0 without having to create new key figures or macro?
Again, will appreciate if you can provide me the step by step of how to achieve this.
Thank you in advance!

Make to order Planning Plant

Dear experts,
I have a configurable material which is produced in plant A and consumed in plant B. The customer order is created and cofigured in plant B. I want to produce my configurable material in plant A according to the customer order which is created in plant B. I can open the production order in plant A configured with this customer order but the planned plant is set B automatically by the system. However I want to issue(101) my material first in plant A and then transport it to plant B with stock transport order. But the system does not allow me to do 101 into plant A. Is there any way to do this.

Forecast Consumption in SNP for Make-to-Order products

We are working on using APO-SNP for Make-to-order products (PlngStrategyGroup = "81" in R/3). We want to achieve normal forecast consumptino on FinishedGoodLevel and generate PlndOrders which shall derive component demand for purchasing (such PlndOrers wont be released to production - they should only function as demand driven on component level)
What we have done so far: Forecast in APO-DP on Finished good level exists and has been released to SNP. The product gets "ciffed" from R/3 into APO material master with planning strategy group "20" (which is basically "make-to-stock") --> we were hoping this would allow us to use "normal" forecast consumption but nothing happens (FCST is not being consumpted by open Sales orders). Within the product view of such products APO is still "realizing" that this is a make-to-order product.
Any other ideas / thoughts what could be done to achieve "normal" forecast consumption on FGI level for make-to-order products in APO-SNP ?
Tks !

I checked in /n/SAPAPO/RRP3 (Product View), unfortunately only FC exists there
Seems that the open Sales Orders from R/3 are being created within another segment (the "element" Tab of RRP3 shows 2 segments:
1) "Make-to-stock" (which contains the FC)
2) "Make-to-order" (which contains the Sales Orders)
That might explain the issue I see (FC and SOs are in different planning segment --> no consumption). Reading about planning segments in the help sounds like I need to find a way to bring Sales Orders for Make-to-Order products into the Make-to-stock segment ... jus a thought .. any idea how to do this ? Does that mean I need to modify the CIF for Sales Order transfer for Make-to-order products ?
Tks

Sales order does not allow make-to-order production

Dear Friends,
I am trying to do do planned order for sales order in MD50 it was showing the error message as
"Sales order does not allow make-to-order production"
Can any one solve this
Shakthi

Hi Shakthi,
It is also possible to set the priority for Requirement Type determination like
0 Material master strategy, then item category and MRP type
1 Item Category and MRP Type
2 as 1, with check for allowed requirement type.
The transaction for this is same as "Requirement Type Determination :
Sales and Distribution --> Basic Functions --> Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements --> Transfer of Requirements --> Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transaction
Look for "Source".
In this transaction, Please, check "Requirements".
Please, make sure of the following 2 things :
1. If you do not set an indicator for maintaining the requirements class: Transfer of requirements is not carried out, irrespective of the specification you make at schedule line level for the transaction.
So it is necessary to mantain the setting first at the Requirements Class. As mentioned in my earlier posts, the requirement class for the material can be found out from Planning Strategy / MRP3 view --> Main strategy (defined in the strategy group) --> Requirement Class for Customer Requirements.
The IMG path for "Define Strategy" is Production --> Production Planning --> Demand Management --> Planned Independent Requirements --> Planning Strategy --> Define Strategy.
2. Once the "Requirements" indicator is set in Requirement Class, the requirements indicator at the Schedule Line decides whether or not you require transfer of requirments for the relevant transaction.
I hope this should solve your problem.

Sandeep

Delivery Schedule line no in Make to Order

Hi all,
        i am doing make to order scenario with 20 strategy group. In sales order we r defining the different delivery schedule lines.when i run the MRP and getting the plan orders for all the FG material and semifinished material, the sale order number and sale order item number is getting updated in production order . Beside these two , delivery schedule line number is not populated and delivery date is not picking correctly in production order.
please give your valuable suggestion .
i would be highly thankful to u
regards
piyush

hi
      thanks,
i have checked MD04 peg requirement list with order route.
every thing is ok.,schedule number is also coming but only for finished good . if three production order is there for semifinished then there is no any relation that how i can judge that this semifinished is for which FG material.means :
FG 1             FG 2            FG 3
SF 1              SF 2            SF 3
SF 11            SF 22           SF 33
How this SF 11 is linked with FG1.and schedule delivery number is there but only for FG material. planning segment is same for all the FG material.MRP element data having all the link but only for FG material.
what is the link of SF 11 to schedule delivery line number with FG material.

WE ARE FOLLOWING MAKE TO ORDER IS IT ESSENTIAL THAT WE DO COSTING

Dear All,
we are doing make to order scenario is it essential that we do costing run . for finished products and semifinished products.
regards
sree

hi,
Yes,
The process is triggered when an order for a configurable material is received from the customer. The customer order is recognized in the MRP run resulting in planned order for production of the material. If insufficient warehouse stock is available, purchase requisitions are created for the raw materials required.
When the production order is created, target costs are calculated for the order lot size (preliminary costing). During the production process, costs incurred are updated on the order, which enables you to keep track of and compare target costs and actual costs at any time.

Remaining Order Plan.....No SAP Notes Please....

Hi Everyone,
    I want someone who really understands Remaining Order Plan to validate if my understanding of it is correct or not. If it is not correct, I would like someone to explain it. I am not finding satisfactory answers from any SAP PS consultant yet, on Remaining Order Plan. Whenever, I ask this question, they say, they will get back with the answer and the next thing you know is that they have disappeared into Aladdin's Magic Lamp.
    I understand that,
    Assigned = Actual Costs + Commitment + Remaining Order Plan.
    I believe that Remaining Order Plan, basically is the value, that is deduced when we assign activities to WBS elements, and arrive at a certain figure called Planned Costs. At this point, All WBS elements have the status CRTD, .i.e., created.
     So at this stage (CRTD Status), I believe that, Assigned = Planned Costs, or we can also say that,
                                                                        Rem Ord Plan = Planned Costs.
     Now, Once we have released the WBS Elements, Actual Costs are going to be incurred, and we are gonna have additional commitments, apart from planned commitments, (realizing that we missed some commitments we had to assign while creating the plan during CRTD Status).
      So, Now during (REL Status), i.e., Released Status, the formula for Assigned would look like this.
       Assigned = Actual Costs + Commitments + Remaining Ord Plan.
Now, Referring to the Assigned Formula, in both the CRTD and REL status, lets analyze how Remaining Order Plan behaves.
     In the Released Status, if Actual Costs = 0 &
                                          Commitment = 0 &
                                          then,
                                          Assigned = 0 + 0 + RemOrdPlan.
                                  ==> RemOrdPlan = Plan Costs
                               Hence, Assigned = Planned Costs.
       As real costs are incurred (i.e., Actual & Commitments), values move from RemOrdPlan to Actual & Commitments Columns, or say they are apportioned appropriately to these two columns, and what is still remaining of the Planned Costs we would term that Remaining Order Plan.
        Suppose, Actual + Commitment = Planned Costs, at some stage in the project, It means, we havae reached the threshold value of the Planned Costs, and the combination of both Actual + Commitment, can cross the planned costs. ( not in all cases, but maybe in some cases, as no one can plan a project ideally anyhow ).
        Once the threshold value of Planned Costs has reached, it would mean that RemOrdPlan is completely apportioned appropriately to both Actual and Commitment Columns. Hence, the Assigned column would look like this...
        Assigned = Actual ( % of Rem Ord Plan) + Commitment ( Remaining % of Rem Ord Plan ) + 0.
        Here, 0 means, zero value in Remaining Order Plan, as it has distributed its values to Actual and Commitment in a certain percentage depending on how the project was executed.
Now, During one of the projects, I have noticed that,
if Planned costs was 100,000 during CRTD stage, they were distributed, in a certain percentage like say,
            10 % to Actual & 25% to Commitment. Hence, 65 % is still left with RemOrdPlan Column.
           Hence , Assigned = 100%,
            The problem is that, When you see, the System status, it shows, ISBD, Insufficient Budgeting, even if there is the same 65% amount available in the RemOrdPlan column. My argument, is that, when RemOrdPlan is something still consumable, how can the system show insufficient budgeting, ISBD status, when there is still 65% in Rem Ord Plan, and that same amount available in WBS element, (via budgeting transactions).
              Moreover, the Available Column should show the same amount as RemOrdPlan, that is 65% of the amount, but it does not. Because, in reality, RemOrdPlan is what is available, and still left to be consumed, until it becomes zero. I think, this concept is confusing all the project engineers who are SAP PS, users.
                 Please, can anyone throw more light on the above arguments.
Regards,
Owais.....

Dear Owais,
Let me try to explain my understanding about availability control and residual order plan =) hope it'll help
The problem is that, When you see, the System status, it shows, ISBD, Insufficient Budgeting, even if there is the same 65% amount available in the RemOrdPlan column. My argument, is that, when RemOrdPlan is something still consumable, how can the system show insufficient budgeting, ISBD status, when there is still 65% in Rem Ord Plan, and that same amount available in WBS element, (via budgeting transactions).
Status ISBD is set for any activity which is relevant for availability control which increase the assigned value not actual value.
If you include the activity group 02 (Orders for project) in your availability control setting then any increase you make in order plan value will trigger the availability control ergo it will set the ISBD status if the value exceeds the tolerance limit even it's still a plan value, not an actual value yet
Moreover, the Available Column should show the same amount as RemOrdPlan, that is 65% of the amount, but it does not. Because, in reality, RemOrdPlan is what is available, and still left to be consumed, until it becomes zero. I think, this concept is confusing all the project engineers who are SAP PS, users.
IMO, if the system shows the 65% of the amount in Available column, user will assume that that amount is free to use while in fact the value is already 'reserved' only for material/activity which has been planned, user can't post any cost outside what has been planned
Please correct me if I'm wrong =)

-K-

Delivery schedule line number in make to order

Hi all,
i am doing make to order scenario with 20 strategy group. In sales order we r defining the different delivery schedule lines.when i run the MRP and getting the plan orders for all the FG material and semifinished material, the sale order number and sale order item number is getting updated in production order . Beside these two , delivery schedule line number is not populated and delivery date is not picking correctly in production order.
please give your valuable suggestion .
i would be highly thankful to u

piyush

Hi
When you do the MRP Run at MD02, maintain the Delivery Schedules as 3 (schedule lines), so when ever you do the MRP Run, it will run along with the delievry date.

Make to order - MRP

Dear all,
MY Client doing Make to order production, finished material is assembly. all components are sent to subcontractor under 541 mvt type without reference. when the sale order came for assembly, we have to run MRP, at the time system not considering subcontracting stock ( components).
fert - material master - Mrp 2 view procurement type-F and spl procurement - 30
components - Mrp 4 view - ind/coll requirement- 2
I want system has to consider subcontracting stock of components while MRP run????
thanks in advance

Dear,
Special stocks are not considered for MRP run. Subcontracting stock is a special stock (O), hence is not considered for MRP.
You need to define MRP area for vendor subcontracting. then run MRP for this MRP area it will work for you.
Please do refer this thread also,

Re Sales order stock in make-to-order scenario

Hi
    While doing make-to-order scenario after doing production order confirmation for the raw material the reserved stock is reduced but sales order stock is not reduced. how to solve this.
Thanks
Antony

Dear,
If you are using strategy 20 then please note,
You also must maintain the following master data settings for the finished product:
Strategy group 20 on the MRP screen
Item category group (such as NORM) on the Sales Organization screen
Sales Order -> MRP -> Customer Stock Finished Product -> Delivery -
+
   ^                                                                                |
   |                                                                                |                                                --      Reduction--
Goods Issue for Delivery and Reduction of Planned Independent Requirements
After goods issue for the delivery (choose Logistics -- Sales and distribution -- Shipping --Delivery --Create), the stock/requirements list is reset
