Scheduling Agreement - Fixed Order Quantity

Hi Experts!
For a short time we work with scheduling agreements in our company. So far it work well, but know i have a question, maybe anyone of you can help me with my issue.
We would order always the same fixed order quantitiy, i know that i can do this in the material master, but we still have more than one vendor for one material. So i can´t maintain the fixed order quantitiy in the material master.
Does anyone have a idea, how i can handle this? Maybe in the inforecord, but the MRP doesn´t consinder the values in the inforecord.
Best Regards
Florian

Hi,
Use CDHDR and CDPOS tables.
Goto VA33 or VA32. In menu Click on environment choose changes.
Enter agreement number and execute. select the line click on choose button. you will get details.

Fixed Days Supply & Fixed Order Quantity

Hi,
in certain cases we use the Fixed Days Supply & Fixed Order Quantity attributes in the Item Master to influence our ASCP plan calculation (size of planned orders etc.)
We need this because we do discrete production (semiconductor industry) and with the fixed order quantity we to ensure that the system plans with full Lots.
However I am not sure what the impact of the Fixed Days Supply is, especially in combination with the Fixed Order Quantity.
Unfortunatly the Manuals do not tell very much about this. Does anyone have experience with this and wants to share some knowledge? I would like to know what these parameters really do and maybe there are better ways for our setup...
Thanks,
David.

Hi,
thanks for the reply. I found the detailed explanation in user guide you mentioned.
I am not sure that we made the setup in an optimum way.
We use for example fixed days supply = 5 for many buy items, because we place weekly Purchase Orders for these items and want to have the planned orders combined instead of having a planned order for every day.
And we use the fixed order quantity to prevent two things:
1) The size of the planned order gets below a typicall Lot size and the calculated leadtime for this planned order is too short. We define item based resource usage rates so it will calculate the exact lead time for the small planned order, but in reality our production has to run the full Lot which takes more time of course.
2) without the fixed order quantity the planned orders might become too big, which makes scheduling of them more difficult, because finding a free time-slot on the machines for a huge quantity must be more difficult than for a smaller planned order.
But unfortunatly Oracle does not provide some business cases, especially for our semiconductor industry so it is more trial-and-error what we are doing...
regards,
David.

Fixed Order Quantity

Hi,
we are using ASCP together with SFM. We do descrete manufacturing for our products. The products flows look like this:
- asssembly item A (finished good item)
=> is make item (has routing), uses component3
- component3 is make item, uses component2
- component2 is make item, uses component1
- component 1 is buy item
So the flow of material looks like this:
component1 -> component2 -> component3 -> assembly4
(buy) (make) (make) (make)
In production we typically process only full Lots/Batches with a certain quantity depending on the component1.
We want that ASCP plans always full Lots, because the leadtime of the full Lot is always needed in reality. If ASCP plans with partial quantities, then the estimated/calculated leadtime for the planned orders will not be realistic.
To achieve this we want to use the Fixed Order Quantities, however it turned out that we run into several other problems if we use this parameter. For example it happens that system recommends to buy material (component1) just for the sake of the fixed order quantities.
We are running into issues if we enter the Fixed Order quantities, and we get other issues if we leave this empty.
I am looking for someone who has experience with this parameter and can give some recommendations. Maybe we use the wrong approach and there are other paramters that we should use to achieve what we want.
Big Thanks in advance,
David.

Sub: "We want that ASCP plans always full Lots, because the leadtime of the full Lot is always needed in reality. If ASCP plans with partial quantities, then the estimated/calculated leadtime for the planned orders will not be realistic."
Oracle ASPC has some more meaningfull logic in Lead time calcualtion. It is not that Lead time will be wrong when you Process the low batch. On the other hand lead time goes up when you use Fixed order Quantity , irrespective of Demand. It also files up your inventory.
See for example, If you have fixed order quanitity for an item say 1000 numbers;assume that you have on hand for 500. and need to refill balance 500.
What will ASCP recommend you ?..1000 numbers.It files your invenotry...Does this mean that lead time for producing 1000 is less as compared to 500!!! also is it acceptable to produce extra 500..
.It also make you to plan low levels adversly with case cade effect...
You issue is not lead time...You are talking about setup time. If you produce more batches, you are occuring the more setups for same items. it makes lead time more lengthy considering the setup time. This is your problem and wanted to limit this or wanted to make it optimization. (Is it right my observation of your problem??)
How to control...?. Rather than speaking about lead time , let us talk in other way ...what is the Planning perid do you want want to conisder while planning a batch or lot size?. In other words let us take an example,,,
Component2 has a lead time of say 30 days for 1000 numbers. At the same time, I am able to accamadate only max 1000 numbers. If the demand goes up ,say for example, 2000, then I need to have two batches. If the goes less than 1000 and demand split in time gap ...for exmaple, 500 in first of week of may and 200 in last of week of may, still I want to consolidate 500+200 into one batch and want to Plan 700 as it is less that 1000.
If the above condition matches..you need to use Min Order/Max orde qunatity and Fixed days supply together. This is the wonderful way it controls the objective as stated above.In this example you will set min 1 , max 1000 and fixed days supply to 20 days.
How ever in some cases if the demand comes likes this, say for exmaple 2000 and 2000, then there is a recommendation to produce 1000,1000,1000,1000 with due date as equal to first lot. However, if you use constranied based planning, APS will reshdule and give you best possible time slot. Other wise, if there is enoguh capacity you are still able to produce 4 batches in first due date. The result of this behaviour depends on EDD and ECC and will vary.Make it understand this and do test case..go ahead..
Thanking you,

Fixed order of photos for album w/o sorting

When importing photos, PSE (by default) imports using a LIFO (Last In First Out) method - hence photos are in choronological order from last to first taken. If photos are from, say, a vacation, this is a problem since nobody wants to see their vacation photos in reverse order.
This can be rectified by Sorting: Date (Oldest First).
However, this sorts the entire Catalog.
My question is: is there any way to use this Sort: Date (Oldest First) and then to assign a Fixed Order to the photos in the album so that I will not have to go through this each time I view the album.
I realize that I can arrange the photos manually, however, in the example I am thinking of there are over 2k photos.
Thanks,

Tom,
Since you used the term "Album" I suspect that you are using PS Elements version 6 or 7. (for future reference it is better to include the version number of PSE when you post because sometimes it makes a difference)
I think that this will work for you, but I am not currently in a place where I can verfiy it: -
After you have created the Album, Right click on the NAME of the Album in the pane on the right and there should be a choice for
b Chronological Sequence
in that menu.
If your photos are all from the same camera, then that should give you the sequence you want. If your photos are from multiple cameras, then your results will be influenced by whether both cameras time stamps were the same (or very close). If you do have multiple cameras, you can use the Organizer Date/Time change adjustment commands to bring the times closer in sync.

How do you run the optimizer with fixed orders?

Hi experts,
If the planner wishes to prioritize orders based on the customer demand, orders should be set as fixed.
How do I run the optimizer when using fixed orders??
Regards,
Analía Nahmías

Hi Analia,
Will you please elaborate more ?
It looks you are running SNP optimizer and want to use also make use of order prioirty functionlity.
You may be knowing already the contents below :
We know that Demand Prioritization functionlity is handled differently in SNP CTM and in SNP Optimizer.
In SNP CTM, Demand can be sorted by different sort criteria.
Whereas in SNP-Optimizer, Demand can be aggregated for three demand classes or by customer locations.
We set prioirties on the SNP Optimizer profile Maintenance for demand classes ,
1. Sales orders
2. The Corrected demand forecast
3.The demand forecast
Apart from this, we can set flag for priority of location products
The optimizer considers the priority of location products in combination with the priority of priority classes of the demand. To simplify this combination, we must group the priorities of the location products into three classes.
Within every priority class as above, the APO system uses all available cost information to determine the final solution
With the above way, planner does not have to fix an order.

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.

How to fix order value not to exceed a specified amount in a Purchase Order

Can you please let me know the config steps required to fix a certain amount in a purchase order ( I mean to say one designated General Manager Purchase has got delegation of powers to issue purchase order for an amount of Rs. 10 lacs only). Is it possible in MM or in FI BCS? Kindly provide config steps in detail if available in MM

Dear Colin
Would you please detail config steps to use OTB function since I am not MM guy but from FICO. In release procedure value is not indicated in our case. After creating the PO at one level Purchase Officer releases the order, next it goes to finance guy he just sees the terms and conditions then releases finally it goes to the GM he also verifies certain terms and conditions and finally releases. Value is not incorporated at any stage. Now we would like to have value. Think it becomes difficult now to meddle with the release procedure.

New lot-sizing procedure (similar FX fixed order quantity)

Dear All,
I have to create a new lot sizing procedure for MRP run. This new procedure should be similar to FX - the material should be included in MRP run when the stock falls below reorder point - but the quantity ordered (proposed to be ordered in PReq) should be the fixed lot size no matter which is the difference between the reorder point and the stock.
To clarify the request: the reorder point is 70, the stock level is 15 and the fixed lot size is 25. The MRP run should create 1 PReq for 25. (The standard functionality of FX lot sizing creates 3 PReq for 25 pieces each one - because the needed quantity is 55.)
If there is no standard customization to be done, I think I should do some changes in the needed quantity (set the quantity 25 instead of 55) - but I need yours advice also about the best way to do this. Maybe you may indicate an exit/BADI or a place where I can do an enhancement to achieve this.
I now it is not the best request - but I have to do it, unfortunately .
Regards,
Florina R.

Hi Tomasz,
1) The reorder point is 70 (greater than the needed quantity for a week) because the vendor has some delivery problems and also because this quantity covers the delivery lead time.
2) The lot size is fixed because they do not want to order more than the needed quantity for a week even if the difference between the reorder point and the stock level is greater than 25.
I'm able to fix the lot size but not to limit the quantity at this value (25).
I have to do this because they will provide the needed quantity (if the stock falls to 0) from another vendor (but the tricky thing and wrong also is the fact that for the second vendor I have a second material....).
It is hard for me to convince you that the request is correct because I know in this way SAP will work incorrectly - but the client knows the consequences and even so wants this kind of lot sizing procedure...
Regards,
Florina R.

PP MRP: Fixed Order setup

Hi Gurus,
One of our requirement is for the system to generate fixed amount of qty for every requirement or order entered into the system, we were able to use the "fixed lot size" field at MRP 1 (MM01) to address this. However the enduser also requires the system to generate orders irregardless of the order requirement they enter (cust order, and forecast) and Available Qty, they also ... how do we address this?
requirement:
customer order                        30000                    system generate          42500          avail qty    12500
forecast                                     1000                    system generate          42500          avail qty     54000
forecast                                    20000                   system generate          42500          avail qty     76500
please advice,

CTO1 and CTO2 are a configurable materials (super BOM)..and the customer require model(MTM) orders will consume the fcst on these configurable materials(63 strategy Planning w.plng material w/o mke-to-ord)..
for example,CTO1 have 10 building block(like,HD,SP..)BB1,BB2,..BB10 while cusotmer order may only require BB1,BB2..and this customer order will conusme the fcst on this CTO1's BB1,BB2 fcst...
         fcst
BB1   100
BB2   100
BB10 100
customer order arrive:require BB1 10,BB2 10
           fcst     order reserve
BB1     90         10
BB2     90          10
BB10 100
We will only plan on CTO(super BOM)..and orders have detailed requirements..
Not sure if I make u understand...
Now we plan on CTO1 and CTO2(CTO1 has the same BOM structure as CTO2)
if a customer order comes,we hope the order will consume the fcst on CTO1 first,then consume CTO2...

Fixed Order Qty Cause for Blank MOQ

Hi
i set MOQ =5400
and FOQ = 1260
The need is to split the Planned order to our lines of 1260 while repecting MOQ
The result was that Planning engine blank the MOQ to null and egnore MOQ
has anyone face this issue and can exaplin why this is behave
is this a bug ?
will appricate your advise
Thanks
Shlomi

I think what want is 5 planned orders of 1260 each so that the total is greater than 5400.
Planning engine applies the order modifier to each planned order.
It does NOT apply them across a group of planned orders.
So what you want cannot be done out of the box.
Hope this answers your question

How can I fix order of numbered songs (compilation)?

Hi there,
How can I get a series of mp3 files to line up and play in numerical order on my ipod? They are in the correct order on iTunes on my computer. Further details:
1) All 10 files have the same song name, followed by their respective numbers. For example:
XX 01
XX 02
XX 03
XX 04
and so on up to XX 10
2) On the Info tab, their respective track numbers are listed:
Track 1 of 10
Track 2 of 10
and so on up to Track 10 of 10
3) "Part of compilation" is ticked for all of them.
The problem is that the list on my ipod starts with Track 3-10, and the tracks play in this order, one after the other, 3 through 10.
Next on the ipod list come Tracks 1 and 2, and these two play in this order.
I want them to be listed from Track 1 to Track 10 and to play one after the other in that order.
Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks! I'll follow your link.
"I would have guessed at disc no. as being part of the problem as the iPod has always seemed to ignore the Album Artist field in my experience."
The Album Artist field messed up the order of another compliation on my ipod too (just noticed this morning), so it is a factor.
Originally, I had included the Album Artist with some songs in the compilation but not with others; the order appeared out of sequence, listing those that included an Album Artist first (and in sequential order for the relevant chapter numbers). When I deleted the Album Artist from them all, the order appeared in sequence for all chapters. I'll pay more attention to this in future.

How to fix order of playlist on burned MP3 CD?

I am trying to burn an MP3 cd that I want in a specific order - NOT by artist, album, etc - but an order that I created (you know, like an old school mixed tape). But every time the cd is finished burning the order is changed. I can resort manually, but I want it to STAY in the order I chose without having to do anything. I am giving this as gifts and it won't be obvious that they need to resort, nor do I want them to have to. I have tried following these instructions ... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2455?viewlocale=en_US , and they do not work. I have also tried right clicking and selecting "Copy To Play Order" - this does not help either. I can't burn this as an Audio CD because there is more than would fit.

For a normal album, the minimum info you need to get your album to list correctly is Artist name, song titles, album names, and then track _ of _. If some of the artist tags have a "featuring" artist, like "Bad Rapper feat. another bad rapper" then you will want to use the Album Artist tag to fill in the one name you want the album to be listed under.
So first select all the tracks from the album you are having trouble with. Do a Get Info on the entire bunch. Assuming none of the tracks "feature" anyone else, do you see the artist, album, and total number of tracks filled in?

Why can't Verizon fix ordering for current Verizon customers?

It should be EASY to buy a Verizon offered phone off the Verizon website as a VERIZON CUSTOMER!
I'm autopay prepaid. All I want is to purchase the Samsung G4 refurb off the site for the free deliver and activation. However, the system says I have to add $45 service. I'M A CUSTOMER WITH SERVICE!
Chat with a rep tells me I can call Customer Service later and have that fee used on my account. DUH! At that point I'm not on autopay and will lose my other 500mb!!
I'M A VERIZON CUSTOMER BUYING A VERIZON PHONE OFF THE VERIZON WEBSITE! Why isn't it in my hands without losing 1/2 my data being charged $90 for my $45 service???
