Emailing Reorder point to MRP controller

Dear Guru's,
Can any one tell me how to send emails to the MRP controllers after running MRP? I would like to send the current inventory status and the ROP with the PR number.
Please advice the user exit or the program to be used... i have no idea about ABAP, it will usefull to talk with my ABAP team frnds.
Regards,
Kumara

You can send the stock requirement list to the MRP controller using the workflow.
SAP already have defined the workflow in the system so you just need to activate that in the transaciton
MDDISPONENT.
For ROP - The user can see the ROP on the stocl list it self by expanding the header details screen on MD04 and PR he/she can see on the Stock requirement list (MD04)
so basically if you activate this workflow your user will see all the information you have asked here.

Mass change of Reorder point on MRP areas for materials

Hi,
Is there any process to upload mass change of reorder point on MRP areas for materials.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pavithra,
I know this is an old thread and my answer may not be relevant to you anymore but maybe it will help others. Are you trying to do a mass change for the reorder points of the MRP Areas? If so, go to tcode SA38, then run program RMMDDIBE. Then go to create/change with Data tab. Select change MRP area and there you can change the reorder points for your MRP areas.

Automatic Purchase Requisition using Reorder Point without MRP Run

Dear Freinds,
My client wants Purchase Requisition should be automatically created as soon as the stock falls below reorder level without MRP run.
Is this possible? if possible then what are the settings required.
Thanks
Prashant Atri

Dear,
It is not possible in standard SAP.
What is the problem to take MRP run?
You can take the MRP run in background through MDBT so system will create automatic Purchase Requisition using Reorder Point.
Hope clear to you.

Mass change of Reorder point at MRP area level

Hi,
I have another constraint.
MM17 will mass change the reorder point at plant level.
Is there any process to do mass change of reorder point for a particular MRP area level.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
When I am doing mass change of reorder point through MM17 tcode selecting MARC table,it will chnage at plant level and getting reflected in material master once I save changes.
But I need it at storage location level.I tried to do this through MM17 tcode selecting MARD table,which will ask for storage location data(i.e storage location level).But after I save the changes,changes are not getting reflected in Display material-MRP1 view.
Can anyone pls suggest why this is happening.
Thanks in advance.

Reorder Point Planning

Hi all,
Business Process is:
1. I am having 6 plants assigned to a single company code.
2. I had created material "A" and assinged to all 6 plants with
different manual reorder points, selected MRP type VB,.
Plants:                    1000      1010    1020    1030    1040    1050
Sloc                        A100     B100    C100       D100   E100   F100
reorder point      100         20        30       25        18       32
i have defined all MRP plant parameters for individual plants:
From my central stores A100 at Plant 1000 the stock will be issued to remaining all Plants, so central stores-in-charge will run an MRP daily or weekly, as we have set different reorder points for the same material at receiving plants
(1010, 1020,1030,1040,1050) so system first triggers the shortfall at all receiving plants and later triggers the Supplying Plant 1000.
Requirements:
1. If the avaialability stock at sloc B100 at Plant 1010 is 15, after running MRP the system is able to create an Auto PR for 5 quantity,. so its working fine,,,,
but my client requirement is:
if the avaialability stock at various plants are:
Plants:         1000      1010   1020   1030   1040   1050
Sloc        A100     B100   C100 D100   E100   F100
reorder point   100         20       30      25      18        32
avail stock          250         15       40      32      29        35
diff stock      +150          -5     +10      +7    +11       +3
so if we observe the above table,,, we can see the difference stock (Avail stock - reorder point) now if my stores-in-charge runs an MRP, a PR for 5 quantity at Plant 1010 is generated, however we are having excess stock at different plants.
what we want is, if my stores-in-charge runs an MRP, no PR should be generated to any Plant except a message saying that at particualr Plants(1020,1030,1040,1050) there are excess quantity of (10,7,11,3) at their individual storage locations.
i am not having much idea about MRP run,,,
1. how to map the above business process in system?
2. if i use planned order concept, ie. during MRP run a Planned Order for a Plant will be generated later my stores in charge will convert this planned order to purchase requisition based on the stock availabile at different plants? so how to work with planned orders/
3. Can i do total mrp run for all plants (1000,1010,1020,1030,1040) at a time?
can any one please help me out,,, its urgent.
regards,
urendra

Hi all,
1. In OM0E i have defined planning scope and assigned 6 plants as sequence.
2. In MD01, i have selected the same planning scope, create purchase requisitions - planned orders, i have'nt selected any Plants.
3. system has given a msg that planning run scope is only possible through parellel mode, now i have selected the parallel processing check box.
4. after pressing enter,, system gvs me the following msg,,,
Please check the destinations for parallel MRP
Message no. MD251
Diagnosis
No destinations have been entered in Customizing or none of the the destinations (application server) entered are active.
In Customizing for MRP, you define the logical destinations (servers) to be used for parallel processing.
how to overcome this,,,

Regarding reorder point planning.

Hi experts,
I have entered safety stock as 40 pcs., reorder point 50 and created requirement for
may 09 - 30 pcs.
jun-09 - 30 pcs.
After executing MRP run it is showing planned order for 50 pcs. only.
But the requirements are not covered I mean to say at last the available qty should be zero.
Please help me on this immediately.
Rgds,
Parul.

In Consumption based planning(re-order point planning), planned independent requirements or dependent requirement will not be considered in the net requirements calculation. Instead, it is triggered when stock levels fall below a predefined reorder point .So, all the planned independent or dependent requirements in a certain period of time should have been considered before setting the reorder point
Therefore, these planning procedures are used in areas for planning both B- and C-parts and operating supplies.(low value materials, but consumption is more)
In reorder point planning, SAP checks whether the available stocks are below the reorder point that has been set for the material. If they are, SAP will create procurement proposal.
We can determine the reorder point manually (u201CVB-Manual reorder point planningu201D MRP Type in standard SAP R/3) or, it can also be calculated automatically using the material forecast (u201CVM-Automatic reorder point planningu201D MRP Type in standard SAP R/3).
In standard SAP R/3 system, besides u201CVB u2013 Manual Reorder Pointu201D and u201CVM u2013 Automatic Reorder Pointu201D MRP Types, there are also other MRP Types that have reorder point as its basis to calculate requirement with additional procedure which count external requirement (sales order and manual reservation) as a requirement. The MRP Type are: u201CV1-Manual reorder point with external requirementsu201D and u201CV2-Automatic reorder point with external requirementsu201D.
If you want to include requirements in the reorder point calculation in addition to the customer requirements and manual reservations,
go to SPRO ->Materials management ->consumption based planning ->master data -> MRP Types
Select the mrp type v1 and
select the following fields:
o     Requirements for materials to be provided in subcontracting
o     Dependent order reservations on the basis of production orders
o     Dependent order reservations on the basis of maintenance orders or networks
o     Release orders
o     Purchase requisition releases
o     Forecast delivery schedules

Reorder point in PD

can i use reorder point with mrp type PD.
when i am trying to put a reorder point its giving me a warning like thing,
Reorder point considered only with reorder point or time-phased planning.
The system does not reset the reorder point because you can define in Customizing for Consumption-Based Planning that the reorder point is calculated automatically for any MRP type.
i went in to the configuration and set the indicator to reorder point in the pd configuration.
but not showing any impact.
can some one sove this.

Hi,
You cannot use reorder point planning with MRp type PD system gives a message: Reorder point considered only with reorder point or time-phased planning.
If you want to use something with PD use 1) safety stock 2) Minimum lot size so that the particular qty. can be ordered.
Try once .
If helpful award points.

Change the MRP run fro Reorder Point to Forecast Based.

Dear Experts
My client is a battery manufacturing company, its Semi Finished product is Make-to-Stock and Finished Product is Make-to-Order. Initially the MRP was configured as reorder based and in Material master it was set as VM (Automatic reorder point plng ). But now we need to change the MRP form reorder point to Forecast Based. The rolling forecast of the coming 3 three months is given in Planned Independent requirement (MD61) as version u201800u2019 - REQUIREMENTS PLAN.
We have changed the MRP procedure in Material Master form VM to VV Forecast-based planning of the finished product but unable to get any result means no Automatic PR is getting generated, the we have changed all the materialsu2019 MRP procedure of that Particular BOM to have the required MRP and Automatic PR raise but still no expected result is coming.
I would request you to provide your expert opinion to execute the Forecast Based MRP, what else should I do achieve the Linking between the Rolling Forecast and MRP instead of Reorder point. Should I have to make changes in Material Master (Only on finished product, In house developed/manufactured Product, Raw material etc), any configuration change in MPR and PR . Looking forward for your specialist advice.
Regards
Sony

I have provided the demand in MD61 and make stock level of the material in such a way that it should raise the PR for MRP run but it is not generating any PR. have checked that if I put value in the forecast tab of the material master manually then it is raising the PR but I need the system to pick the value form the demand that I provided in MD61. Is there any configuration related issue to get the values form the demand and generate PR accordingly. Please guide
Should I have to provide 'VV' at the first level of the Material at its master data or at each component of the BOM irrespective of
the components for Semi-Finished (In house production), Raw materials (Procure from the supplier). Please suggest...

Automatic reorder point and safety stock caluclation- MRP type:V2

Hi,
I want the system to calculate reorder point and safety stock. To simulate this i created one material with
MRP type:V2, service level as 97%, Forecast model:D,Hist. period:12,Forecast periods:12, and I entered
the historical value for past 12 months as 100 nos in material master.
04.2009     100
03.2009     100
02.2009     100
01.2009     100
12.2008     100
11.2008     100
10.2008     100
09.2008     100
08.2008     100
07.2008     100
06.2008     100
05.2008      100
Then I went to MP30 and executed the forcase.When I checkd the material master the system has calculated the reorder point as 14 nos. But there is no value updated in safety stock field.
Now I have two questions.
1) How the system has arrived the reorder point value as 14 nos.
2) Why there is no safety stock updated in material master.
Could u please clarify this.
Thanks and Regards
Purushothaman

Hi,
This is further to my preivous mail. I have changed the consumption values and now i am getting the safety stock.
MRP type:V2, service level as 97%, Forecast model:D,Hist. period:12,Forecast periods:12, and I entered
the historical value for past 12 months as.
04.2009     100
03.2009     80
02.2009     110
01.2009     85
12.2008     90
11.2008     95
10.2008     125
09.2008     90
08.2008     90
07.2008     92
06.2008     101
05.2008     100
After executing the forecase the sytem has calculated the below parameter.
Basic value:95.759
MAD:11.448
Safety stock:10.252
Reorder point:23.658.
Can anyone explain me how these calculation arrived.

Can use Scheduling agreements using VB/V1 reorder point MRP?

Hi,
Curretly client is using MRP PD with forward scheduling of 120 days and total horizon of 240 days (it is scheduling 6 months back and 6 months forward from current date) so that Vendor will always have at least 6 months of forecast requirement and client wants to use Min/Max and Reorder point as the key fields for inventory? will this is possible by changing MRP type VB or V1 or R1?
I have a taken a test material and changed MRP to VB and it did not ran for forward dates as the stock was not below reoder point? what are the points i'm missing here?
Appreciates everyone time and help.
Thanks
Siva

VB is consumption based planning and Scheduling agreements can be used only with PD MRP

MRP with reorder point and safety stock and planning calender issue

Hi,
We are using currently MRP type PD and using Scheduling agreements and after the demand management changes when ran MRP the delivery quantities are fluctating in higher range and vendor complains about it so to avoid this we are constantly changing GR Processing days in material master? how can we avoid the drastic changes on the order quantites on scheduling agreements with out changing GR processing days.
For example : we constantly manufacter 480 vehciles per week and some time because of holidays it will be 320 or 560 per week then the forward scheduling agreement quantites instead of 480 parts week(twice a week delivery) goes up and down and vendor needs a at least a range for his prodcution?
I was thinking to use Reorder point but when i changed the MRP type VB then i cannot see forward scheduling agreements at MD04? does MRP type VB or V1 will allow forward scheduling also like 120 days ahead of planning?
Appreciates everyone time and help.
Thanks and Regards,
Siva

you can use MRP time fence to restrict the changes in planning data for specified horizon. For example If MRP time fence = 30 days, no changes in planning data will be allowed for coming 3o days unless you manually intervene.if any new requirements came in this period , they will be planned automatically at the end of this period only.

MRP TYPE IN REORDER-POINT PLANNING

Hi
I would like to know the difference between the V2 and VM MRP type in the individual Material Master record.
Because, for me, both are for Automatic Reorder-Point Planning and I don't know which I have to choose.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Forecast program is used to calculate reorder point.
check this document
[http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/f4/7d257044af11d182b40000e829fbfe/content.htm]
Even when you the calculation is based on past consumptions, in the forecast view you maintain parameters for tendency (seasonal, etc), how many periods are to be taken into consideration and you may also manually adjust consumption quantities. You may refer consumptions to other materials (i.e. when you have a new material code, replacing an old one, you can use this old one historical consumption data to calculate reorder point).
Hope this helps

Automatic reorder point planning

Hi Gurus,
Cud somebody guide me on the Basic settings required for AUTOMATIC REORDER POINT PLANNING'VM',Including SPRO settings.I cudnt find an answer for this from previous FORUMs.
Kindly give me u r suggestions or aslo suggest some good links for PP documents or links concerning with Automatic reorder point planning and its settings.
THNX in ADVANCE

hi HKR
In automatic reorder point planning, both the reorder level and the safety stock level are determined by the integrated forecasting program.
The system uses past consumption data (historical data) to forecast future requirements. The system then uses these forecast values to calculate the reorder level and the safety stock level, taking the service level, which is specified by the MRP controller, and the material's replenishment lead time into account, and transfers them to the material master.
Since the forecast is carried out at regular intervals, the reorder level and the safety stock level are continually adapted to the current consumption and delivery situation. This means that a contribution is made towards keeping stock levels low.

Difference :Automatic Reorder Point Planning and Forecast based palning ?

Dear MM Guru's,
As we See in throtical Concepts that
Automatic Reorder point planning and Forcast Based Planning Used the prevuious Historical Data.
Please explain what is difference Between them.
regards,
A. S.

Hi,
Reorder Point Planning: -
Use: -
In reorder point planning, procurement is triggered when the sum of plant stock and firmed receipts falls below the reorder point.
Features: -
The reorder point should cover the average material requirements expected during the replenishment lead time.
The safety stock exists to cover both excess material consumption within the replenishment lead time and any additional requirements that may occur due to delivery delays. Therefore, the safety stock is included in the reorder level.
The following values are important for defining the reorder point:
- Safety stock
- Average consumption
- Replenishment lead time
The following values are important for defining the safety stock:
- Past consumption values (historical data) or future requirements
- Vendor/production delivery timelines
- Service level to be achieved
- Forecast error, that is, the deviation from the expected requirements
Manual Reorder Point Planning
In manual reorder point planning, you define both the reorder level and the safety stock level manually in the appropriate material master.
Automatic Reorder Point Planning
In automatic reorder point planning, both the reorder level and the safety stock level are determined by the integrated forecasting program.
The system uses past consumption data (historical data) to forecast future requirements. The system then uses these forecast values to calculate the reorder level and the safety stock level, taking the service level, which is specified by the MRP controller, and the material's replenishment lead time into account, and transfers them to the material master.
Since the forecast is carried out at regular intervals, the reorder level and the safety stock level are continually adapted to the current consumption and delivery situation. This means that a contribution is made towards keeping stock levels low.
Forecast-Based Planning: -
Use: -
Forecast-based planning is also based on material consumption. Like reorder point planning, forecast-based planning operates using historical values and forecast values and future requirements are determined via the integrated forecasting program. However, in contrast to reorder point planning, these values then form the basis of the planning run. The forecast values therefore have a direct effect in MRP as forecast requirements.
Features: -
The forecast, which calculates future requirements using historical data, is carried out at regular intervals. This offers the advantage that requirements, which are automatically determined, are continually adapted to suit current consumption needs. The forecast requirement is reduced by the material withdrawal so that the forecast requirement quantity that has already been produced is not included in the planning run again.
Reducing Forecast Requirements
- Reducing forecast requirements by consumption
If consumption is higher than the forecast requirements in the current month, then the system also reduces future forecast requirements.
- Reducing current forecast requirements by consumption
If consumption is higher than the forecast requirements in the current month, then the system does not reduce future forecast requirements.
- Average reduction of the forecast requirements
The reduction of the forecast requirements is based on average daily consumption. Actual consumption data is not relevant.
The system calculates the average daily requirement first using the formula forecast requirement/number of workdays in the forecast period.
The forecast requirements are then reduced by the quantity resulting from the following formula: number of workdays worked x average daily requirements.
Period Pattern and Forecast Periods
You can specify the period pattern for the forecast (daily, weekly, monthly or per accounting period) and the number of periods to be included in the forecast individually for each material. It is possible, however, that the forecast period pattern is not specific enough for planning purposes. In this case, you can define per material that the forecast requirements should be divided according to a finer period pattern for planning. You can also define how many forecast periods are to be taken into account during requirements planning. The splitting indicator is defined in Customizing for MRP per plant and per period unit and is assigned to the material in the material master.
Example: -
For a monthly forecast, the requirements date would be set on the first workday of the month because, for planning, it is assumed that the total requirement must be available at the beginning of the period. You can then divide this monthly requirement into either daily or weekly requirements.
