Error- PPDS Planning board -Heuristic 'Adjust and Reschedule Block Limits'

Hi,
I have created a sales order in ERP and overload (within tolerance) a block of a block planning enbaled resource in APO. The block is overloaded.
Then I've run the "Heuristic 'Adjust and Reschedule Block Limits'" under Functions-->Heuristics.
Now i expect that the overload disappears. But I get the message "Heuristic 'Adjust and Reschedule Block Limits' - Executed without result".
Could you please suggest why the Heuristics is not working? Has any setting been missed or set wrongly?
Regards,
Ashok

Hi Ashok,
Please use the following pathway.
1) Transaction code spro
2) Click on "SAP Reference IMG"
3) Menupath:- SAP SCM Implementation guide > Advance planning and optimization >
Supply chain planning > PP/DS > Heuristics > Maintain heuristics > maintain the heuristics SAP_CDPBP_02.  This includes the scheduling horizon and other parameters.
Please confirm

  • PPDS Planning board - PM Resource Vs Production Resource

    Dear Experts,
    I have question regarding capacity Leveling in PPDS
    For Instance I have Resource A in production and also same Resource defined as Resource A in Plant maintenance
    Now there is Break down in Resource A and have maintenance order in ECC
    Does PPDS will pick this overload in the planning board
    Please explain how PPDS is used in such scenarios
    if you need more clear explanation please let me know
    Regards
    Raj

    Hi Raj,
    Maintainance order is integrated with APO as downtime. SO maintainance order will come as downtime on a resource in APO.
    If there is already order scheduled during this time in APO it will not get rescheduled to some other time. But  if are running some detailed scheduling heuristics such situation will get corrected.
    There is also BADI avaialble where you can enable automatic rescheduling using follow up actions

  • MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling) - Show operation status in Planning Board

    Because the current MRS thread is some long and complicated I chose to move this question into a seperate thread:
    Initial question:
    Like many companies, it is not unusual at my customer for their Planners to create orders with multiple operations, particularly since many orders require different crafts to perform the work. When the Planning Board is launched and Planners lok at work scheduled for the past week they want to be able to see at a glance which operations have been completed and which operations, perhaps from the same order, have not and may need to be rescheduled. Their preference is to select "final confirmation" when using transaction IW41 and thereby set the operation system status to CNF when the work on an operation has been completed. They then want to somehow use this CNF operation status to drive something visual in the graphical Demand layout display and Resource layout display to enable the Planner to see at a glance that the operation has been completed. I've tried several approaches with configuration of abstract statuses and the user interface profile without success. My customer's interest in being able to see the completion status of an operation in the MRS Planning Board makes a lot of sense to me. I'm hoping someone can help me with a technique for modifying the Planning Board so that it displays the completion status of an operation in a visual way.
    Response from Varun Verma:
    Hi Mark,
    The problem at your customers end is nothing new.
    What you can do ( many other customers have done it in similar way ) is:
    1) you integrate the status CNF into MRS.
    Check the customizing: Basic Settings -> Assign ERP Objects -> Status
    2) configure in MRS that for status CNF, the assignments and demands (only in item work list or Hotlist) is colored to GREEN (or any other color)
    Check customizing: Set Up Scheduler Workplace -> Workplace Profiles -> Define User Interface Profiles
    Thus the users will know visually, that the green colored assignments are already completed.
    By the way, in your work list you can also filter the demands based on their status
    Regards
    Varun.
    Followup question:
    Varun,
    Thanks for the response.  I thought I had tried this but perhaps it's because in the UI profile I had not entered something in both the status groups for assignments and the status groups for demands.  I have a bit more testing to do but it appears that the demand status now gets updated from the operation status of PCNF (linked to abstract status WORK_START) and CNF (linked to abstract status WORK_STOP).  I also get a red bar (C4) for PCNF and a green bar (C1) for CNF.  Do you have a better status group I should be using in place of C1 and C4?  Status groups C1 and C4 give me a bar but it doesn't look like the demand bar with a outline and alphanumeric description of the demand, it's just a colored bar.
    I know the work list can be filtered based on their MRS "planning" status, however, it doesn't appear to permit filtering by the status of the operation unless I add the operation status as an additional field in the worklist.  Is there something I'm missing here?  And even if it did, my customer wants to be able to see the CNF status indication in the Demand layout and schedule using the work centers so the worklist is not being shown like it is in the Resource layout.

    Hi Mark,
    Well I assumed that you have confirmations integration active !! But I guess not because you say that the status is not integrated always.
    What you need to do:
    1) I assume you have SP05 or later.
    2) Implement the user exit: CONFPM05. In the implementation of this exit you need to call FM: /MRSS/RSG_PM_ORDER_CONFIRM
    3) Go to customizing: Basic Settings --> Assign ERP Objects --> Status
      -- Here, define an abstract status (MRS Status) for confirmed and partially confirmed
      -- map it to R3 status CNF and PCNF.
    After this, whenever you enter confirmation for PM order from transaction IW41, the status will be integrated.
    Now you can use the MRS statuses defined in step 3 to configure the colors.
    Implementing the user exit CONFPM05 might require some technical input. But it is easy. Just a few double clicks and copy paste.
    Contact an ABAP developer for the same.
    This should solve your issue.

    I have found that the 2nd text field (USR08) must be added as the last step (#6).  When I had it as #1, the planning board did not display the USR08 value.
    Now both are displayed in the Gantt chart graphic.  However, it is difficult to see this long string of data as the bars in the Gantt chart may not be long enough to display the data. 
    Therefore we would like to use the "hover over" text which is displayed in the status line at the bottom of the screen.  We have tried using both the Info Text and the Quick Info options within the Bar Chart: Options Profile (OPG0).  Only the first text (the material descirption) is dislayed within either the Quick Info or the Info Text.
    Is it possible to have multiple object values appear in Quick Info or Info Text?  Or is it possible to control which text is displayed in the Quick Info or Info Text?
    Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated, as this is a make-or-break issue for the business to use the planning board.  Thank you!

    I'm also looking for a standard customizing alternative to do the same thing.
    Still, if you're interested, I've already done it successfully with user exit PLAT0001.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards.

  • Rescheduling the order in planning board

    The error is "Activity is outside the planning period" and the detail Log contians 'reschedule activity 180501 0010 0015 S, which is outside the planning period'
    (I found that the order valid to order is 04.10.2010 for this perticuler order if this is the reson then how this field is getting updated?)

    Hi,
    Check in the initial screen of the access to DS Planning board the planning start and planning end period defined.
    You are doing a rescheduling activity which is out side the planning end period.
    In the strategy profile you can define that in case of scheduling error termination can happen .

  • Error while transporting Planning board profiles from Dev to QA

    Hi All,
    I have created planning board profile by copying an already existing Non-Standard profile.
    The Profile is working fine in Dev and i am able to see all the charts and Graphical objects as per the settings in the profile.
    But when i transport the profile to QA, it is giving error SAPBARC with text "Illegal number of columns in Chart". I checked what setting have been transported, and found that many of the setting have not been transported for the profile.
    Also tried to move all the profiles, thinking, there might be some dependcy among them. But the problem still persists.
    Awaiting for help...
    Thanks in advance..:).

    Hi Davis,
    Before transporting transformation make sure either of source or target should availble in target system.
    suppose you have a transformation between Data source and Data Target, first transport Data source, then transport Transformation along with data target.
    Before tansporting Transformation either source or target should be avaialble in QA system..then only transportation will happen smoothly..
    Hope this helps.

  • MRS - Resources and demands are not visible in the Planning Board

    Hi Friends - I am working on the the MRSS 610. We have installed it on the our ECC 6.0 as an add-on. We have configured the system as per the configuration guide.
    But when I am accessing Manageru2019s Planning Board -  /MRSS/PLBOMGR , using the Organization unit, I am getting Notification saying that the resources assigned to the Organization unit are not available in the MRS.
    "Resource 00000000010000000000000000000000 not yet created in the WFM Core"
    The details of the Error message
    "Resource 00000000010000000000000000000000 not yet created in the WFM Core

    Procedure
    Contact technical support.
    Procedure for System Administration
    Create the resource in question in MRS."
    I have run the Report
    /MRSS/HCM_RPTWFMIF : Transfers the HR data (availability times, qualifications and the resources itself) into the MRS Basis
    But even after that I am not getting the resources in the planning board.
    Also I am not able to view the Demands from PM/CS orders.
    I have created PM Orders and
    Assigned Work centres to the operations and
    assigned the Resources to the Operations.
    The HR assignment to the work center is also done.
    I have tried T Code   /MRSS/PLBOSRV - Enter the MRS planning board using a specified order
    to pull the order demand. But it is not working
    Its giving following message
    1004280 is not a valid demand
    Message no. /MRSS/SGU139
    Diagnosis
    The order does not exist in MRS.
    This may be because:
    The order number has an invalid format.
    The order does not exist.
    The order is not relevant for planning and has therefore not been transferred to MRS.
    The order has been deleted from MRS.
    Pls help me on this.
    Thanks in advance and warm regards
    Purnendu

    Hi Anil/Saurabh - Thanks a lot for your replies.
    I have checked the MRS configuration as per your suggestion.
    It looks fine as per the configuration guide. I have done the PM/CS integration for Orders as demand.
    But the Demands are not visible on the Planning Board.
    I have checked in the debugging mode what is causing the problem - It looks like
    "The Database Table: /mrss/d_dem_h  needs entry"
    But there are no entries in this table.
    I could not find any Customizing transactions or Application transactions for maintaining this table. This is an Application Table for Master and Transaction Data and its Display and Maintenance allowed with Restriction.
    I could not also find any transaction for transferring Demand from ECC(R/3) to MRS.
    How do I maintain entries in this table?
    How do I transfer Demand from ECC to MRS?
    Saurabh - I have also been not able to transfer HR Resources from ECC to MRS.
    We don't have WFM Core installed in our instance. But MRS should work fine without WFM. MRS Basis should take care of it.
    To transfer Employee resources i have run the Program " /MRSS/HCM_RPTWFMIF". But when I execute the transaction with the selection parameters system shows that it is processing (Clock at the bottom Status bar) but it does not shows any result or status.
    So I am not sure whether it is executing the program properly.
    Pls help me resolve these issues.
    Thanks and warm regards

  • SNP and PPDS planning horizons

    Hai,
            I am reading through SNP and PP/DS planning horizons. I understand that SNP doesnot plan anything within SNP production horizon whereas PP/DS plans only within the PP/DS horizon.
    Now, I get confused when trying to understand the following sentences:
    1. If production horizon of SNP is smaller than the PP/DS horizon, the planning horizons of SNP and PP/DS overlap with each other. In this horizon, SNP determines the receipts with most cost-effective sources of supply and lot sizes and PP/DS plans the receipts in more detail.
    2. If requirements within the SNP production horizon cannot be covered by PP/DS, then SNP plans the receipt outside the SNP production horizon(this corresponds to the logic in the PP/DS planning time fence in short term planning).
    3. If the PP/DS horizon in the product master is set to be greater than SNP production horizon, this gives rise to an overlapping area in both SNP and PP/DS receipts are created.
    Can anyone please help me undestand the above? An example or somedocumentation reference is appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi Visu,
    Good question. You missed Planning Time Fence in the equation.
    |--||--
    >
    1.       PTF             SNP            PPDS
    You execute PPDS Heuristic (Product Heuristic) then requirements upto PPDS horizon will be covered by receipt elements (beyond Planning Time Fence). If you run SNP Heuristic then receipt elements will be created from SNP Horizon out in future deleting the receipt elements created by the previous PPDS run. But note that while PPDS planning is down to the second level SNP planning is minimum at a day level. If you have weekly buckets then all requirements for one week will be clubbed and single receipt element will get created. However you can consider SNP orders as fixed during PPDS Net Requirement Calculation through appropriate development.
    |--||--
    >
           PTF              PPDS           SNP
    2. This is also not clear to me as I cannot build the scenario as described. The above diagram is the closest I could come up with. But in this case if you run SNP Heuristic and there are unmet requirements (sitting between PPDS and SNP horizon) then the receipt for that will be created only at the start of the SNP Horizon.
    3. This is correct but already explained in 1.
    Hope this clarifies or at least does not add to the confusion. BTW if you are interested then please read OSS Note 481906 - SNP - PP/DS integration (documentation).
    Thanks,

  • Gap of Time of R3 and PPDS planned orders

    Hello Gurus,
    I'm facing an issue regarding R/3 - PPDS planned orders.
    The customer has the cenário that R3 and APO does not synchronize planned order on-line. R3 sends the orders on line however APO send it only in a determinated  time. As a matter of fact, the issue happens when R3 planned orders are sent to APO. Anyhow, the order into R3 that should be delivered by 03/20/2010 for example, in APO, it is showed as 03/18/2010 or 03/19/2010 without apparently reason.
    I realized that the R3 system server has a gap of 2 hour more in the system time if you compare with APO server, however I cannot understand the reason of this gap of days and I don't think that seems to be the reason.
    Also, the capacity of the resource is not defined at the same time for a shift that is in R3.
    Is there anyone that could help me about it?
    Tks in advance.
    Marcos.

    Hi,
    The time zone depends on the customization done - but one can change it to the desired option by setting the time zone in product view or requirements view as need be. One has the options of choosing:
    Time zone of user
    UTC Time zone
    Location time zone
    Any time zone the user prefers
    so immaterial of the server location, one can change the settings according to the user requirements.

  • DEtailed scheduling planning board - scalling of objects in the charts

    Hi,
    I am wandering if there is a possibility of changing the scale in the graphical planning board in APO PPDS, eg. in the resource chart. in the way that I could change the scale just for a certain period of time or one object.
    for example:
    the planning period choosen is 10.09.14 to 01.10.14., scale unit is hour, but the duration of some orders or operations is less than a minute. Woud it be possible to somehow change the scale just for 1 day or 1 hour within the shown period? zooming in does not help as then I cannot see the other lines that I need to look at when scheduling that specific order or operation.
    thank's for any helpful hint!
    br,
    Wojtek

    Hi Mike,
    thank you for responding to my query.
    I know the functionality with the right-click. this unfortunately does not help as the whole time frame is stretched-out => they cannot seen some objects, while the planners would like to strech-out only part of the shown period.
    I also checked the possibility of changing the scale down to seconds cause some operations have a duration of less than a minute (timescale editor = double left-click on the scale). But the production is still unhappy. They have seen in some software such a possibility and wish the same in the graphical planning board. they want to see just part of the time frame in another scale so that the objects outside the scale remain in the same time unit but the objects within the considered time frame would be displayed in another time unit.
    In the resource chart if you right-click an operation you can select the option shrink/stretch operation => I am not sure if there is sth wrong with my connection but most of the time when I click this option nothing happens. Just a couple of times while clicking on the same operation I manged to get a pop up "change operation duration" where you can define in % the new duration. but have to choose a new duration between "min and max duration" that are in this pop up zero => so I cannot change anything and have no clue where this zeros for min and max come from and in the end if that might solve my problem.
