Drop Ship SO Schedule Ship Date to Purchasing NeedBy Date

Has anyone found a solution to resolve the fact that the Sch Ship Date defined on a sales order becomes the Need By Date on a Purchase Release document sent to a Supplier to fulfill a Drop Ship Order Line? This is confusing to the Supplier as the term NeedBy implies this is when the customer will need the product on site. If the supplier has the product there by the Need By Date transmitted from OM, then the product will arrive too early.
Thoughts?...

Let's assume the Customer Service person does not know whether the item is a drop ship item or not. The problem we have is that the Customer Service person normally uses the Scheduled Ship Date as the date Shipping must send out the product on product sourced internally. We are trying to keep things consistent for the end user.
We hope to use the Scheduled Ship Date as the date the product must be shipped regardless of whether the product is sourced internally or externally. Again, this is to keep order entry consistent for the end user and they do not have to think differently when entering the sales order.
Thanks for any feedback.

  • Assign document date to purchase requisition date

    Hi All,
    I have a question regarding purchase requisition. I have a requirement where i have to change the purchase requisition date based on certain condition. I tried to change it in the user exit "MV45AFZZ" when the sales order is released, but at this point the purchase requisition number is not yet created in the database though it is available in this internal table "XVBEP-BANFN" in the include "FV45EFMA_BESCHAFFUNG_SICHERN" of "SAPFV45E". Can anyone tell me when will EBAN table get updated and when should i change the requisition date? I hope the doubt is clear, otherwise let me know.
    Thanks and have a nice day.
    Cheers,
    Ashley

    Hi Ashley
       I have tried on my system and itz working, Can you
    place a break-point in MV45AFZB and see if the flow is
    reaching the place at the point where you need.
       Coming to the Customer Function in
    FV45EFMA_BESCHAFFUNG_SICHERN, have you checked as per
    the documentation of it:
    FU EXIT_SAPFV45E_001
    Text
    Update Purchase Order from Sales Order
    With this customer exit the standard system behavior
    regarding updating order data from the sales order can
    be expanded or restricted.
    The module is called up when the sales order is changed,
    as long as the conditions for changing the order have
    been filled. It transfers the document number, the
    purchase requisition number and a table for the fields
    to be changed in the order (T_PURCHASE_DATA). <b>This
    can be expanded or restricted in the existing
    Customizing.</b>
    <b>The rule is: To change a field with the name
    FIELDNAME, a subprogram (form routine) with the name
    POSITION_CHANGE_FIELDNAME must exist in the program SAPMM06E.</b>
    Try to find if POSITION_CHANGE_BADAT exists in
    SAPMM06E. If not found ask you functional consultant to
    expand it for purchase requistion date and see if it
    works.
    Hope your problem resolves.

  • Use of Shipping calender while populating schedule ship date

    Hi Experts,
    I have done following setup in system in order to use shipping calender,
    a) Define an item, enable ATP. Now we are having ATP based on ASCP plan output.
    b) Define calender where Friday is only working day. This is our shipping calender.
    c) Assign shipping calender to customer, with its ship to site in order management.
    d) Enter SO line for this item. Enter req date - 02 Jul 12 (Thus-day), assume that item is having very less lead time so it will be complete prior to 02 Jul. But due to request date and shipping calender, schedule ship date should be 06 Jul 12, but it is showing as 02 Jul 12.
    So want to know reason behind it.
    Thanks in advance / Dipak

    Hi Arif,
    I am looking for further more help in this case..
    Suppose, we are dealing with two OUs - US ( ie for USA organization) and EU ( ie Europe organizations). Now US OU is sales operating unit, SO will be entered in US OU, having customer and ship-to-location belongs to US OU. Here only SO line warehouse is belongs to EU OU. Its typical sales OU and manufacturing OU scenario.
    Now in order to use shipping calender, we have mentioned default 'shipping method' and 'internal location' on customer ship-to-location. This is pre -requisite. Now this customer ship-to-location is belongs to US OU and EU OU is not allowed to enter any value against it. But as EU OU is dealing with shipping, then want to 'ship' material on specific days. So in given scenario, is there any alternative way to achieve the same ? Is there any work around to use shipping calender ?
    Thanks,
    Dipak

  • Is there any method to stop rescheduling of the PO Need By date from ATP if there is any holiday specified in shipping calender. The requirement is to update the schedule ship date on Sales Order but the lead time of  Purchase Order should not increase

    We are currently not able to manage schedule ship date proposed by ATP when our warehouse is closed. For example , we would like that ATP doesn't propose any schedule ship date for the first of May , which is a non working day in France. The constraint is that we don't want our purchase need by date to be impacted by the process.
    I tried to closed one day in FR1 calendar and, after testing with order management, it appears that ATP didn't propose the closed day, so that's fine, but, our purchase order lead time was increased of 1 day and this is not what we expected.
    Can you help us to find the right process.
    Thanks

  • Scheduled ship date not taking PO need by date

    1. Please consider following case -
    a. Sales order is created for org UK for item A for 10000 qty 24-Mar-2011 with order request date as 29-Mar-2011.
    a1. There is no on-hand in UK for item A.
    a2. The item lead time for item A, as defined in UK org in item attributes’ Lead times tab, is as following -
    a21. Pre-processing time - 4 days
    a22. Processing time - 20 days
    a23. Post-Processing time - 1 day
    a3. A standard purchase order for item A is created for 15000 quantity on 25-Mar-2011 with Need by date as 10-Apr-2011.
    a4. The ATP rule that is attached to the item, is having Purchase orders checked, under supply sources.
    Observation : Before purchase order creation, the scheduled ship date on SO was 28-Apr-2011 (item lead time of 25 days).
    Then the PO is created as in point a3 and ASCP plan was run. The sales order line for item A is unscheduled and Rescheduled, the scheduled ship date becomes 25-Apr-2011.
    Questions :
    1.     Why did the scheduled ship date change to 25-Apr-2011?
    2.     What all things it is taking into consideration?
    3.     As per our understanding, the scheduled ship date should have been changed to PO Need by date. But this didn’t happen. Is our understanding flawed?

  • Schedule Ship Date/ATP in OM.

    Hi Champs,
    would like to know how system calculates automatic schedule ship date for an order.
    also pls let me know if ATP and schedule ship date are same.
    Thanks.
    -Arif.

    Hi Arif
    Schedule ship date is populated by ATP when you book or schedule the order. If the item is ATP enabled, ATP calculates the schedule ship date and populates on the order.
    When ATP runs, it considers lot of modules like , purchasing supply, open order for demand etc. ATP calculation is complex calculation and can be dependent on lot of parameters like if you have Global Order Promising installed or not.
    I hope you get the answer.

  • Scheduled ship date using PO /  On-hand Quantity

    Hi All,
    ATP calculates the scheduled ship date using the pegging from PO or from the available On-Hand-Quantity when the order lines are created.
    I couldn't find any difference in the order tables whichever way the scheduled ship date is created.
    Any idea how to find based on what this date is calcualted from OM?
    Thanks
    Geetha

    Seeing sales order in OM you can identify whether schedule date is coming from onhand or purchase orde or lead time. But this information is not stored anywhere.
    You should check this sales order on planning workbench and pegging area should tell you the required info.
    So whatever you are asking is available on planning instance (MSC data).
    if you are not using ATP based on planning output then I don't think you will be able to get required information.
    thanks

  • Sales order schedule date is a (working) day before Scheduled ship date

    In MRP/MPS planning, the forecast consumption is occuring for all sales orders at a date (sales order schedule date) which is always a working day before the Scheduled Ship Date (SSD). What is the logic?
    Time fences are not used.
    E.g. Sales order is scheduled to ship (SSD) on 30th Nov, in forecast set > Forecast items > Consumptiion > Detail, the sales order schedule date is a day before SSD.

    Hi,
    This is a complex issue; best solution is by using APO/GATP.
    If not, then in ERP only, the second best is:
    1) Work with assembly processing in SO, meaning that a production/planned order is automatically created in the customer order during order creation.
    2) Then, after the order is created it is scheduled, and the delivery date proposal is based on that.
    3) Now you can check in the order that there are no capacity overloads, and all capacity required to produce on the proposed date is available. If yes, you're done. If not, it gets a bit complex, since you actualy need to switch to capacity planning, do capacity leveling and dispatch (PP), and the you get a new feasible schedule proposal based on that.
    APO/GATP could do all that automatically!

  • How to stop scheduled ship date and scheduled arrival date from defaulting to sysdate

    Hello,
    We have a business scenario where we are deriving scheduled ship date and scheduled arrival date outside and then imported in the instance with the order. However we find that the scheduled ship date and scheduled arrival date are defaulting to sysdate. The atp flag is set to N for these items. I have checked the defaulting rules, there is no such defaulting rule set for scheduled ship date or arrival date ( screenshot attached) Please share your thoughts on how can I stop scheduled ship date and arrival date date from defaulting to sysdate ?

    Is there a way on CONVERSION to create a sales order with a scheduled ship date in the past?
    Customer wants to maintain the original scheduled ship date on converted ordered, but the scheduled dates is defaulting to sysdate for past due shipments on converted orders.

    Hi Friend,
    As of now there is no functionality to display SSD,RD,PD backdated, max it can be sys date, not lower then that.
