Due tu requirement class wrong stock availability

Hi everyone,
Our situation is this. We have a requirement type assigned to a Sales document item category. We create a Return PO for a material and choose that the stock type should be Blocked Stock (in Delivery tab in transaction ME21N). Why can it be that in one plant everything works perfectly fine but in another plant sistem says there is no stock available (and there is stock in that plant)? Please any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Padmasri,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, we also think that it has to be something different between the plants configuration, but I can't see any difference. If you have any idea, please let me know.
Thanks,
Nisha

Requirment class & Procedure for each schedule line category

Hi all,
In requirment class we have a switch on/off indicator for avai check and TOR.In define procedure for schedule line category also we have the same.
If I dont want the system to carry out availabilty check, I can switch off the indicator in requirment class or at schedule line category.
My question is why we have these indicators in 2 places.
It is written we can fine tune these settings at Define procedure for schedule line category settings
Could anyone explain in details with Business scenarious
Thanks in advance
Mano

Hi,
1. Availability check at Requirements Class level -
The requirements class contains all control features for planning such as relevance for
planning, requirements planning strategy and requirements consumption strategy.
In addition, it is specified at a global level whether an availability check is to take place for
the material in the sales and distribution documents on the basis of the ATP quantity
(ATP = available to promise) and whether requirements are to be passed on.
2. Availability check at Schedule line category level -
A finer degree of control can be obtained for sales documents using the schedule line category.
Replenishment lead time is only included in the check performed on the basis of the
ATP quantity.
You can control with the schedule line category whether an availability check and
transfer of requirements should be carried out in the sales documents.
Note -
1. At the global requirements class level, the availability check can only be switched on in combination with the transfer of requirements. At schedule line level, the settings are proposed from the requirements class.
2. If the availability check is switched on at requirements class level, it can be switched off at schedule line level. However, you cannot switch on the availability check at schedule line level, if it is switched off at requirements class level. You can make this setting at schedule line level. But the system ignores it and the setting for the requirements class applies.
3. Also, at schedule line level when the availability check is switched on, the transfer of requirements can be switched off. For example, this makes sense for inquiries or sales information.
4. The settings specific to schedule lines for performing an availability check are only relevant for sales documents. In the shipping documents, the settings from the requirements class and the delivery item category are used. As with the schedule line category, the availability check can be switched off as required in the delivery item category.

Availability check box at schedule line level and requirement class level

Hi All
What is the significance of availability check field at schedule line level and requirement type level.
If I remove the check box at schedule line level, then there won't be any availability check carried out in the sales order, even though in requirement class it is checked. Is it for doing availability once the requirement is passed to MRP...
In make to stock scenario, no availability check is active at schedule line level.
scenario 1. stock is 0 in plant, when i place an order for 10 quantity, does system give any confirmed quantity on so and so date...or the confirmed quantity will be zero or as there is no availability check carried out, it confirms 10 quantity on customer requested delivery date and the time of creation of delivery, it gives an error message stating zero quantity is available. which one is correct in all the above.
In make to order scenario, no availability check is active at schedule line level.
order was created for 10 qty, as there is no availability check active, does the system give some date based on the lead times maintained in the material master or not?
Regards
Sree

Hi sreekar
The significance of availability check at schedule line level is to determine weather availability check and TOR should be carried out for sales orders or not.
If you remove check box at schedule line level , availability check and TOR wont be carried out at sales order level.
Coming to the scenario you said , make to stock , i think the availability check you are using is 01 make it 02. which is planned requirements. and stratergy group as 10. in MRP3 view in MMR. .
as the availability check u have put 01 & stratergy group as 10 availability check doesnt carry
coming to the scenario 2 , if the stock is 0 in plant and if you create a sales order, then the confirmed quantity should be 0 and that particular order will go to backorder processing.
sometimes it confirms the ordered quantity as the confirmed qunatity, and it gives a confiremed delivery date on which the stock is confirmed , but that date is a tentative date.
all these unconfirmed orders will go to backorders. once the qunatity is confirmed automatically , delivery date also will be done
Coming to scenario 3 , when you create MTO order there will be availability check checked at the schedule line level. can you tell wat is the schedule line you are getting is it CP or ND?
for schedule lines , ND - no availability check will be there , PD - availability check will be there
Note: plz check 1st the availability check you have entered in MMR , if it is 01 make it as 02. and then run these cycles.
Reward points if useful and if Any queries let me know

Special stock-E in Requirements class 011-Delivery requirement

Dear expert,
i want to change the value in filed: special stock from E to other value via OVZG, can i do it and how?
please do me a favor,great thanks!
David

Dear David
To the best of my knowledge, in OVZG, for Requirement Class, the field will be blank for "Special Stock".
However, if you want to add, just copy the requirement class and assign the value by renaming the requirement class.
Thanks

Special stock indicator in requirement class

Hi
While trying to create a new requirement class or while changing an existing requirement class, the special stock indicator is always greyed out. Can anyone suggest why?
Thanks.

You need to talk to your CO consultant and make sure that the account assingment settings are done for valuation, only after the special stock indicator can be activated

Delivery date not confirmed on the same day even though stock available

    Hi Experts - We are creating an STO in Brazil where stock is moving from 1 plant to another plant.
    Current ATP situation is as follows: which shows 22 EA still available.
We are creating the STO from the plant 3004 to plant 3005.
We are confused why the system is proposing the delivery date of March 17 instead of March 14, in spite of sufficient quantity being available.
We do understand that it takes 03/17/2014 because of the upcoming weekend. But when stock is available on March 14, we would have expected this result.
These are the key configurations that I have done:
Material Master:
MRP View: Planned Delivery Time is 0
MRP Type: PD (MRP)
Checking Group: 02
Assign delivery type and checking rule config for Material Master is also done as follows:
Request your help please!
Regards
Siddharth Sridhar

Yes If Stock is available for material & still date is changing in STO creation than may be this could have happened due to time zone setting,
2 option-I would request you   also go through Stock requirement List (MD04) & check where some pending order is lying & some purchase orders if yes then first block them,
Sometime it heppens if earlier for same material you would have created Sales order (qty is 20) & stock available qty is 15 & still with 15 qty you would have done PGI.& after some time your would have done migo for the same shortage material & this time 5 qty material could be adjusted in shortage order that's why if you go through md04 then you would be able to block shortage qty which is adjusted,n now date is showing deff,
hope this would help,
Thanks,
Kamlesh

Automatic BOM Selection as per Stock availability

Hi...
I have a query.....How can i set an Automatic BOM selection as per stock availability
Problem is that the client is having more than 1 type of raw material which can be used, so the user needs to consume the ROH as per the stock availability, in that case he has to manualy check and amend the Production Order accordingly.
Hence, i want to set a system wherein the system would do the checking of the ROH material and then select that material and execute the production order accordinly.
Requesting your valuable inputs.
Thanks in advance,
Harris

Harris,
Please explore the possibility of defining "Alternative Item Group", in the BOM Item level details(Basic data tab).
From Application help for your referance,
Alternative item: group
Consolidation of alternative items within a BOM. Every material in the assembly can be included in the alternative item group.
Use
As soon as you enter an alternative item group, you see an additional dialog box with the following data: ranking order, strategy, usage probability.
You can maintain alternative items in the following situations:
Alternative positions with specific usage probability
These alternative items are incorporated with a specific usage probability. Enter the usage probability for each alternative item in the group, so that:
dependent requirements are determined in requirements planning
dependent requirements are changed to a reservation in the production order
Alternative positions as information
You can enter an alternative item for information purposes. This item would then, for example, only be taken into account in situations involving missing parts.
As there should be neither dependent requirements nor a reservation for this item, enter no usage probability.
Procedure
Enter the same character string to denote the alternative items of an alternative item group.
Enter the same strategy for all alternative items in the alternative item group.
Dependencies
Alternative items are valuated in the following way:
Dependent requirements determination
Requirements planning determines the dependent requirements according to the usage probabilities that have been entered.
If the usage probability is 0%, then no procurement is planned for the item. For information purposes, however, dependent requirements with 0 as quantity are created.
Withdrawal posting
You can control the withdrawal posting for the resevation in the production order in the following way:
Withdrawal according to usage probability (manual change is possible)
Withdrawal if there is 100% availability
(Check ranking order and strategy)
Example: See Strategy for alternative position

Block Stock consider during MRP Run and Stock availibility check

Dear All,
I am facing the stock availibility check , Sytem consider the Defective material which is Block in same storage location ,and system not generate the Planned order .
-Blocked Material stock 100, and requirement 100 then system not generate the planned. Client need the system generate planned order 100 , Because 100 material is defective.
I have configured the system scope of availibility , Block stock check remove , but problem is not solve.
Thanks
Rajesh Tiwari

Dear ,
Can you please re-check your MRP plant parametrs in OPPQ wether you have selected blocked stock( Available Stock tab ) option by chance ?
Please de-select the same and re-run MRP.Generally MRP does not consider block stock in net requirement calcualtion .One more thing , MRP does material avilablity check as per OMJJ set up ( define availbality chek ) but does not consider the same while doing net requirement calcualtion to generate PR rather it goes down to MRP plant parametrs ( oppq or oppr )
Hope this is clear

Requirement types & requirement class for trading goods.

Dear all,
I am working on a project in which there are only trading goods. Majority of the items are make to order & few are make to stock.
For the make to order scenario, what will be the requirements type & requirements class to be used for the trading goods. Which item category is to be used......will it be TAN or different......
For the make to stock scenario, what will be the requirements type & requirements class to be used for the trading goods. Which item category is to be used......TAN cannot be used here as it will be used in the MTO scenario so diffferent controls.
What control parameters should I take care of while defining the requirements class & requirement type.
With best regards,
Niyaz Sayyed.

Hi,
    As my understanding, You should copy a new requirement class and make the following parameters and its values.
   For Requirements,
      req.transfer is X
      Allocation ind. is 1
      Prod.allocation is X
     No MRP is blank
For assembly
                assembly type is 2,
                 order costing is X,
                 Special stock is E,
                 order type is ZXXX
You can refer to the sap standard MTO strategy 20 to complete your project. This is the most important parts defining the requirements for sales and distribution module.

Requirement class- consumtion indicator and requirement reduction indicator

hi
in DEMAND MANAGEMENT WE CAN SET REQUIREMENT CLASS
can any one elobrate whats the difference between the consumption indicator and requirement reduction indicator.
in help i dint get any explanation regarding the indicators which we need to se at requirement class
in siemens material i got the diff on between but i couldnt understood
can any experts elobrate the issue.
the explantion is like that
consmtion is not the only integartion between actual sales requirements and PIR. reduction of the PIR will also takes place asa result of the sales requirement.
Reduction is the process of actual reducing the value of PIR and its stored in the system. where as during consumtion the actual value stored was not changed, only the quantity passed to planning was lowerd.
can any body elobrate the above statement
regards
sasikanth

HI
Consumption indicator
The PIR are consumed with respectve to sales order
requirement reduction indicator
make-to-stock production is reduced by customer requirements which are planned as sale from stock

Standard requirement class

Currently I donu2019t have sap system can any one tell me what is standard requirement class and requirement type for (sales order to delivery and billing normal case)
Ahmed

Hi ,
TOR is dependent on requirement type, requirement class, checking group and schedule line category.
Requirement class contains all the control parameters, required for demand mgmt/sales and distribution.The requirement class is the controlling factor for the availability check and the TOR for all sales document types.
Requirement Types are Texts that represent the planning Strategy in any application (like demand mgmt/Sales & Distribution. A requirement type is allocated to a single requirement class,but a requirement class can be allocated to more than one requirement type. The requirement type is displayed in the sales order is based on the item category and the MRP type of the material.
Hope it helps.

Pasapula.

Requirement Class Selection

Hi
We have a two company code say 1000 / 2000. in 1000 co code we produce FG by strategy 10(MTS) where as in co code 2000 we produce material FG by strategy 45 (MTO). now my qestn is :
when i create Sales order for material which is in co code 1000 system takes defualt cutomer requirement KEV for stock material but it should not to be take.
Please sugest earliest.

Dear Vishal
You have not specified whether sales area, sale document type and plant are different for each company code.
- Assuming that your sales area and sale document type are also different, please check in OVAZ whether you have maintained the correct sales area to the sale order type.
- Ensure that in OX18, correct plant is maintained for the company code
- In material master, correct sales area is maintained which you can check in MM02 by selecting only the sales area
- In MRP3 view of material master, check what strategy group you have maintained bcoz, the requirement class depends on this.
thanks

Requirement Class 101 and 105

Hi,
In std system settings for requirements class 101 & 105 are kept same. Similarly for the requirement class 103, 106, 107 the settings are kept same (requirements class for planned independent requirement)
Can anybody suggest the reason behind that. Is there any specific reason for creating multiple requirement class for same settings?
regards,
Mohit

Dear Lauliu,
Requirement class 101 - is linked with planning strategy 40 and requirement class 105 is linked with planning strategy 70.
With planning strategy 40 it's a pure make to stock scenario where based on PIR's(planned independent requirements) the system
creates planned orders for the finished products and these can be processed from production perspective without recieveing
any sales order.
With planning strategy 70 it's a planning strategy for planning the components designed for planning the procurement (production
or purchasing) of components by planning the components themselves. This is particularly useful in the following cases:
There is a variety of finished products (possibly with an irregular demand pattern where planning is not possible).
The finished products are consumption-based.
The overall purpose of planning at component level is to procure components to stock (without sales orders) in order to react to
customer demand as quickly as possible.
check and revert back with your queries.
