Fixed lot size and Minimum lot size

Dear senior,
My client has the following scenario. His supplier provides the item in a fixed lot size of 100. The minimum lot size to be ordered is 300.
The supplier is a fixed vendor.
I tried to maintain this information in the Material Master MRP views. Lot size - FX, Fixed lot size - 100, Minimum lot size - 300.
However, everytime, the minimum lot size will get reset.
Is there any way , I can maintain this scenario via configuration or any other method?
Thank you.

Hi,
Fixed lot size - 100 means for every 100 quantity system will create one purchase document.
If you selected Lot size - FX - Fixed order quantity , then no need to maintain Minimum lot size & Maximum lot size fields.
Then you have to maintain Fixed lot size filed only.
Ex:
Lot size = FX
Fixed lot size = 100
There is a requirement of 300. Then system will create 3 PO's with quantity of 100 each.
If Lot size is Ex - Lot-for-lot order quantity, then only need to maintain Minimum lot size & Maximum lot size fields in the MRP 1 view.
Ex: Lot size = EX
Minimum lot size = 60
Maximum lot size = 100
There is a requirement of 250. Then system will create 3 purchase documents, two documents with the quantity of 100 and third one with the quantity of 60.
That's why, in your case system is reseting Minimum lot size every time.
If you want to maintain Minimum lot size, then maintain
Lot size as EX
Minimum lot size = 100
Max lot size = 300
It will solve your problem.

Report for Reorder point, safety stock, current stock and fixed lot size

Hi,
Purchasing Dept. is looking for a report which can give list of materials falling below the reorder point, so that they can go ahead and create procurement proposals for those materials.
They also want to see the Reorder Point, Safety Stock, current stock and fixed lot size in the same report.
Let me know if there ia any standard report availbale which displays the same or any approach to get the same.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Shankar Goud.

Hi,
There is no standard report because this is meant to be managed by the MRP run.
The MRP lists show all materials that have a problem (such as stock below reorderpoint) but MRP generates requirements for these anyway and so all you need to do is to look for the MRP generated requirements (requisitions?) and you have your list?
Are you using MRP?
If so then please use the standard functions in MRP to get this.
If not, then WHY NOT?

Rounding value and Minimum lot size

Hi all,
Finish material is X and Raw material is Y.
Bom- For Preparing Xu2019s 1 Qty, 1 Qty of Y is required
In Material Master of Y - Rounding value and minimum lot size is 10,
Project needs 5Qty of X.
When MD51 for Project execute u2026 PR of Y must be of 10 as per rounding value and minimum lot size, but it is creating PR of 5 qty.
Above scenario working properly if I take MRP run with MD02 for material X for 10qty, after MRP PR of Y will be created for 10qty.
With Regards,
Ashish

Dear,
By default, the lot size works as lot-for-lot quantity in the make-to-order and project scenario.
Go to OMI4 select your Lot size and define Lot Size: SOP 1 or 2Lot-for-lot with rounding. Better create new Lot size as ZX with these setting.
If you always want lots to be created for the multiple of the rounding value, you must specify a minimum a multiple of the rounding value.
Example: minimum lot size: 10 and rounding 10.
Please try and come back.

Fixed Lot Size and Assemby Scrap

Hi Gurus,
I've an issue using a Material with Fixed Lot Size (MRP View) and Assembly Scrap.
The system doesn't increase the base quantiy (creating a Process Order) with the Assembly Scrap defined in the Material Master, if you change manually the quantity in the COR2 quantiy will be recalculated correctly.
Anybody can help me?
Thanks
Marco

dear marco,
One changes in my earlier post
IF fixed lot size is 1000, and assemby scrap as 10 %
if the pir is for 900
after running MRP system will create a plan order for 1000
In MD04 , you can see the receipt reqmt as 900 and scrap as 100
i.e System will allocate the scrap with in the fixed lot size
Once the plan order is converted in to process order you can see
the total qty as 1000 and scrap 100
for other lot size system will add the PIR reqmt +assembly scrap %,
Yes you can change the qty in COr2, system will update as per the scrap qty , i.e system will allocate the qty for scrap
for ex , if you are changing the total qty as 10000, system will propose 1000 as scrap,
when you save the order and see the mD04
you can see the receipt/ reqmt qty as 9000 and scrap as 1000
i.e system will allocate the 1000 qty from total qty
Hope you are clear how the fixed lot size is working for assembly scrap

Combination of Fixed Lot size and Period lot size

Dear all
I have scenario as follows:
1. My supplier's standard packing size of a raw material is 1000 EA.
2. I want to follow period based lot size to optimise my order and inventory cost. But I don't want to use dynamic lot size which will propose dynamic quantity.
So my requirement is like I want to fix lot size as 1000 at material master and Period is Week. My proposal quantity must be 5000 EA for the following demand pattern:
Week 1:1200
Week 2: 1000
Week 3: 1100
Week 4: 1000
System must consider period as well as fixed quantity.
Kindly throw some light on this.
Advance thanks.

Hi
1.As you are looking for Weekly demand demand quanityt , you have to assign Weekly Lot Size : WB.
2. Goto OWD1 and Create a Rounding Profile which will rounds into Weekly Demand quantity for that plant and simulate .
3.Assign this rounding profile in MMR in MRP1
3.DO NOT assing rounding valu as 1000 .Rather keep it blank
Hope this will solve the problem

HOW TO DEFINE THE LOT SIZE THAT CONSIDERS MAX STOCK AND IN FIXED LOT

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement where the client wants to procure the material in fixed lots of 125. they are using manual reorder point VB with reorder point of 100. The maximum allowed stock is 400.
When the MRP runs they want to generate a PR that is close to 400 and also a multiple of 125. I tried to use FX and it is only generating procurement proposal for 125. When I use HB it is considering the max stock but not generating the proposal in multiples of 125. Can anyone help me out with this.
Regards

Hi,
I think your problem could be solved by using rounding profile but not using
fixed lotsize.
In rounding profile you have to give threshold value and rounding value
For the threshold value 1------- Rounding value 125
            threshold value 126------Rounding value 250
            threshold value 251-------Rounding value 375
            threshold value 376 -
Rounding value 400

Fixed lot size key has no effect on planned orders generated for VC PIRu2019s

Hello gurus,
does anyone have an idea why the fixed lot size key is not having an effect on the planned orders that are generated for the Planned Independent Requirements (PIR) for MTO configurable materials. My client is using planning strategy 56.
I have copied & customized the Fixed lot size key FX to suit the MTO production (u201CLot size as in short-term periodu201D activated) that works nicely even with configurable materials when a planned order is generated for a sales order. But the planned orders in the preplanning segment, i.e. that were generated for PIR's, are still created equally to the PIR quantity.
Is this behavior an error or an SAP feature? Though, I have reviewed the OSS Note 437098 that might be related to this. Can anyone tell me if it is related to this issue?
Regards,
Mikko

Got the answer fro SAP:
Please consider the following note, which provides the explanation about this behavior of the lot-size, when VSE requirements are used:
125498 - MRP/Docu: Planning segment and lot-for-lot order quantity
The following section of the note describes your scenario in detail:
"The planned independent requirements for a material are in a separate
planning segment (planning strategy planning without final assembly,
requirements type VSE, VSEV).
You enter a rounding value or a rounding profile or an lot size that is
not exact in the material master.
Material Requirements Planning:
In Material Requirements Planning, planned orders are generated for the
planned independent requirements. The lot size settings (such as fixed
lot size or minimum lot size) are also not taken into account."

Different fix lot size depending on the production version

Hi all,
I have the next scenario:
2 production versions. 2 different fix lot size por each. So:
Prod Version 1 - Fix lot size 200
Prod Version 2 - Fix lot size 300
I created the Quota Arrangement just to make SAP to take my favourite version. And trought the quota, I can define the lot size for each version. BUT.
If I change the version in the order or in the planned order, the quantity don't change.
So: How can I manage 2 different fix lot size for 2 different product versions? If I change the version once the order is created, how can I do the system change de quantity to the right one?
Thanks in advante
<< Please do not offer points >>
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Oct 1, 2010 2:53 PM

I have n't tried this scenario,
This is my Idea
Create a two production version
for ex: lot size 100 to 1000, set the rounding profile qty as 1000
for lot size 1001 to 99999, set the lot rounding profile value to 5000
BY this way u can get the two lot based on the rounding profie
Expert; please correct if i am wrong

Fixed Lot Size

Dear Gurus,
I am simulating the functionality of Fixed Lot Size so I enter Lot Size = FX and indicated Fixed order Quantity = 40,000 in Material Master. We are using Ind./Coll = 1 and I want to generate fixed quantity of planned order equal to 40,000. But when I run MD42, the system still generated planned order equal to the shortage/required quantity. Our requirement is to generate fixed quantity of 40,000 per planned order regardless of demand requirement.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
SD

Hi,
Please find my reply below,
Use MRP Type VB:Manual reorder point planning:Here you need to define reorder point in material master in MRP view.When the stock level reaches the re order point then system will create a procurement proposals.

SNP quota arrangement with fixed lot size

Hi all,
i have a question regarding quota arrangement for external procurement in snp heuristic. Whe have 2 sources of suppy created by info record. The quota is 25% for the first and 75% for the second one. In product master there is maintained a fixed lot sice of 500.000. Im wondering that the snp heuristic creates 2 requisitions of 500.000 for each sos at the same day. So we get an serios excess. Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Christian

Hi,
thanks for reply. Ok, normally net requirement calculation works properly. In case of a shortage the heuristic shall apply an receipt with the fixed lot size wich is maintained in material master. However, in out particular case it generates the double receipt quantity which is not needed at the receipt date.
The heuristic should do the following:
Day 01 Stock 100
Day 02 DepDmd 20
Day 03 DepDmd 20
Day 04 DepDmd 20
Day 05 DepDmd 20
Day 06 DepDmd 20
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 1!!
Day 08 DepDmd 20
Day xx PurReq 100 !! Source 2!!
and not:
Day 01 Stock 100
Day 02 DepDmd 20
Day 03 DepDmd 20
Day 04 DepDmd 20
Day 05 DepDmd 20
Day 06 DepDmd 20
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 1!!
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 2!!
Day 08 DepDmd 20
In this example 100 would be the fixed lot size from material master.
Best regards,
Christian

MRP planning Purchase REQ per fixed lot size

Folks,
I have materials which have MRP type PD with fixed lot size of 20 pieces. Safety stock = 200 pieces. MRP run results in 10 preqs of 20 pieces each. I would like to have 1 Preq of 200 pieces. How can this be achieved?
Regards,
MdZ

Hi,
This is because of Lot size "FX" you maintained as 20.
For FX lot size system will divide the total qty as per the fixed lot qty & throw that much of PR for that stock.
So Safety stock = 200, FX =20 so PR will be 200/20 = 10 PRs
If you want 1 PR for your safety stock, then change the Lot size to "EX" then system will throw 1 PR for 200 qty as per your Safety stock

Minimum Lot with Fixed Lot

Hi Experts
I have one requirements that our some of the vendors can be supplied the minimum lot of 1200 Kg but after that they can supply the fixed lot of 600 Kg due to packing constraints but as per my understanding in standard SAP we can not set these both parameters simultaneously.
Please suggest.
Regards
Ajay Goel

Hi,
Based on which criteria you can define that the vendor can supply 1200kg for first lot and after that 600kg? Is it per day delivery constraint or anything other? Could you please elaborate.

Difference between Fixed order qty and Fixed Lot multiplier

Hi All,
Can someone explain me the difference between Fixed order qty and Fixed Lot multiplier in general planning tab at item level with example.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Just bit more clarification i need to understand the difference.
Like for example let us assume two cases.
Case 1:- order less than Fixed order qty (Fixed order qty =50 and the FIxed lot multiplier =50)
Let us assume that we have set Fixed order qty equal to 50. We have a physical order of 40 then still MRP will place a order of 50 only. In case of tumhi snagaSame is the case of Fixed lot multiplier it will place a order of 50
Case 2:- order greater than Fixed order qty (Fixed order qty =50 and the FIxed lot multiplier =50)
Let us assume that we have set Fixed order qty equal to 50. We have a physical order of 60 then still MRP will place a order of 50 twice. Same is the case of Fixed lot multiplier it will place a order of 100.
eventually we are doing the same in both the case so what is the exact differnece.

Fixed lot sizein MTO-20

HI,
i HAVE AREQUIREMENT that planned order lot size must be 100 although customer order is 1000,So i am looking that instead system generate a single planned order of 1000 it must generate 10 planned orders of 100 each.
Is it possible with strategy 20.
In material i put lot size fx and fixed lot size as 100.
But it is not coming .
Can anybody pl. suggest me?
urgent,thanks in advance

Hi,
it is possible, u can also use lot size EX also.
Set the EX and define the Max lot size = 100 at MRP view.
Goto OMI4 set the "MTO lotsize = 1" (Bottom area) for Lot size EX .
or u u can sue FX with above settings.
Please try and comeback
