Float before production reg.

HI dudes,
one of my client is having one issue regarding floats, they are using float before production in the schedule margin key and they complaining that the total production time for production order according the basic start and finish dates is lesser than the total activity time given in the routing. i have not checked in the system so far as its new client, can anybody suggest what might be the reason for this.
regards
Daniel.

The following is the logic behind scheduling.
In basic date calculation ( order start date/ order finish date ) the system always calculates backward scheduling.
Steps:
1. From the reqmts date the system subtracts the GR processing time to calculate the order fininsh date.
2. From the order finish date the system subtracts the inhouse production time to calculate the order start date.
3. From the order start date the system subtracts the opening period given in scheduling margin key to calculate the order opening date.
Lead time scheduling :
1.From the order finish date the system subtracts the float after production to calculate the production finish date.
2.From the production finish date the individual operations in the routing are scheduled backwards to calculate production start date.
3.From the production start date the system subtracts the float before productionto calculate order start date.

Scheduling Margin key ( Float before production - Float after production)

Dear Expert ,
I maintain in material master float before and after production
When i rescheduling in house production in routing and display the result i found the time for float is calculated in Interoperation time
And I as i know Scheduled start & Scheduled finish determined the production dates only & FBefProd is time between basic start and Scheduled start and FAftProd is the time between Scheduled finish date & basic finish date
Why he put it there at the time it's not actually maintained in production date ?
Regards
Rami

Dear,
In the routing, click on scheduling result push button,
Here you can see how this interoperatioon time is calculated
how much is Float before and after production.
example-
schedule margine key - 001
float before production - 2 day
Float after production - 1 days
Routing data- for 1 qty - 24 hrs
After you schedule in routing and see the details of scheduling result, the following result
Basic start date - 30.11.2008
Basic finish date - 03.12.2008.
Scheduled start date - 02.12.2008
Scheduled finish date - 02.12.2008.
base qty - 1 TO
Processing time - 1 day
interoperation time - 3(all inclding floats)
Total inhouse production time - 4 days
Now repeat it for 2 qty, results are as below
Basic start date - 30.11.2008
Basic finish date - 04.12.2008.
Scheduled start date - 02.12.2008
Scheduled finish date - 03.12.2008.
base qty - 2 TO
Processing time - 2 day
interoperation time - 3(all inclding floats)
Total inhouse production time - 5 days
I hope you got the idea.

Setting Float before production (in day)

Hi,
How can I set the Float before production (in day) in Material master and in the BOM?
Thanks
Dede

Dear,
Schedule margin key includes,
1. Opening period
2. Release period
3. Float before production
4. Float after production.
Opening Period: It is the time to MRP controller to convert planned order to pur req.
For FERT & HALB opening period, release period, Float before production & float after production are applicable.
But for ROH only opening period & release period only applicable.
You need to assign schedule marging key in material master MRP2 view.
For Customizing for Shop Floor Control, by choosing Operations --> Scheduling --> Define Scheduling Margin Key .

Quality Inspection before Production

Hi All,
We are using Production resource tools(PRT) in Production Order. We want to do the quality inspection of the PRT before one day of Production.
How can we map the following scenario so that Quality check can be done for PRT before Production??
Thanks,
Sanjay

Dear
1) Create Equipment under the category Test Equipment (Q)
2) Go to inspection plan and assign the PRT in the opertion overview. When you click on PRT normaly it will ask for material, you can choose equipment and then add the Equipment there. You can assign multiple PRTs
3) In inspection characteristic - make sure that Test Equip is ticked in the control indicator of the mic
4) In inspection charactertistic overview for each mic you can select and the PRTs maintained in the operation view is visible here and you select the one which is require

How do I keep product attributes from floating over product description on ecommerce site?

When MistyAcresAlpaca.com went live, the site was working perfectly. Over the past week, I've seen changes to the site's menus , footers and products pages that were not initiated by myself. It appears to be a software, JS or JQuery issue.
To clarify, catalogs have been rearranged on menu, product attributes float over product descriptions and foot information has been rearranged.
Customers who try to order products using IE as a browser are unable to do so. Using Chrome or Firefox, customers are able to order products but attributes (size, color) are still floating over the product. Most of the sites customers use IE as a browser.
Please advise on how this can be resolved and the website stablized.

Think you may have a missing end </div> for your <div id="nav">, as it appears to be currently encapsulating the entire page including the footer.
As a result styling for the menu #nav ul li is being adopted further down on the product details.

Mike

Which user exit can be use before production order creating?

which user exit can be use before production order creating?
i want to check AFPO data,then show error message before production order creating.
1.i try to use PPCO0001( enhancement when saving the order) to check AFPO data, then show some error message,sap system will generate a abap down error.
2.i try to use PPCO0007(Exit when saving production order),
i can show error message,but i can't check AFPO's data.

Hi,
You can access AFPOD structure using field symbols.
Try below mentioned code in routing:
constants: c_afpod TYPE char30 VALUE '(SAPLCOKO1)AFPOD' .
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_afpod> TYPE ANY .
data: wa_afpod TYPE afpod.
ASSIGN (c_afpod) TO <fs_afpod>.
wa_afpod = <fs_afpod>.
Then later you can use wa_afpod in exit PPCO0007. Hope this will work for you.

Export 24 Bit Source WAV as 32 Bit Float Before Converting In Adobe Media Encoder?

Hi,
I'm exporting movies from After Effects as .avi and wondering what I need to do to preserve my audio as close to the source as possible. My source audio file is 24bit / 48K. I am using Adobe Media Encoder to encode the video/audio as YouTube Widescreen HD, but since After Effects doesn't offer 24bit export, should I export as 32bit float? And is this going to alter my audio in any way before it goes to Adobe Media Encoder?
I've read about this on some different forums, but am still not clear about it..
Thanks,
Henry

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your response. The issue that I'm running into with Adobe Premiere is that I've created "odd" frame rates in After Effects to sync my animations in "time" with my music. For this particular animation, the BPM of my music is 72.5, so I've used half of that, 36.25 FPS to perfectly line up my animation in After Effects. It locks right in with the BPM. I've tested this out on YouTube, where my videos are headed, and it works perfect. The problem is that Premiere is not using the source (After Effects) frame rate and and I have to choose from a set list of frame rates. Is Premiere limited to these frame rates? If that's the case, then I guess the only other option for me is to export from After Effects as 32bit float and test to see if their is even a difference from the source WAV. Most people are not going to be monitoring with high end D/A converters anyways, so it's probably not even going to make a difference. However, I have put a lot of work into this project and I want to deliver the best possible master.

CHECK LIST BEFORE PRODUCTION

Hi
what are the things we need to check once the config requests are uploaded into production server.
chris

u need to check the
1)condition tables are copied or not
2)No ranges for Rg 23 reg are copied or not
3) plant setting of CIN copied or not
4)release strategy if applicable u have to create the characteristics.
5)J1ID settings are copied or not specially chapter IDs
rest all will be transferred through requests only.
all above told settings are transactional level thats why u have to check the same otherwise no need to check the settings.

Questions for the wiseman before production deployment

Hi, I have a number of questions I would like to ask before deploying the webelements into a production environment. who do I contact to answer my questions and concerns? Thanks.

hey Michele, here's the answers to your questions..
1. not sure what you mean by this but pass through html is a supported method and feature in xi & xir2. webelements is a function library that uses this method. rather than having everyone create their own code each time for pass through html components, we've institutionalized the code in a custom function library.
2. there is support via Global Services should you need help with a project / implimentation. contact your sales rep should you wish to go the Global Services route. there is no support via Customer Assurance as this is considered custom code...i.e. same as if you were using the sdk to do some custom work. there is this forum and hopefully it will ramp up so that more people use it.
3. not at this point. most of the samples though have instructions on them, plus the Users Guide is pretty big and there's also the video of David Taylor's presentation at http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/1575
4. this tool does not add the ability to write to the database...that ability has been around since v9 of crystal. this tool adds the ability to create an easy interface to do this which was lacking with regular prompt methods.
5. pass through html must be activated on the crystal reports web server...see the user guide for more info.
6. these controls simply append textÂ to a report viewer...so you are going to see no more performance lag on a report than you would if you put a bunch of text formulae on a report.
7. see 2. it would be the same if you're building a custom app...global services support, forums, but no customer assurance support.
8. one could really write their own tool to do this as pass through html is the method that makes this possible. clients have been writing their own controls since v9 of crystal. webelements is simply a larger library wherein the controls all act in conjunction with opendocument syntax and the prompting method in crystal.
9. this comes from business objects.

By product / Co product : Reg

Hi,
I am working with joint production and have some issues related to same.
1 - I have created a production order with one co product and one by product.
      But when I do the goods receipt, in MB31, by product is not appearing during goods movement.
2 - During WIP calculation I am always getting values as zero. Even though system is not showing any errors.
3 - System is not identifying any Settlement Rules automatically when I create production order.
4 - Even when I maintain settlement rule with equivalence no.s, system shows settlement only for the main
      product but co product and by product is not appearing at all,
Can you guide me to resolve these issues.
Pavan

Hi
1) Co - Products will be posted in to stock with 101 and by-products with 531 hence you can't post a by product in MB31
3) Assign the settlement Profile in OPJH per order type then u will get the settlement rule copied to Order
4) For the main product and co-product tick co-product check box and for Main product in MRP-II view in Joint Production tab assign source structure
   In the source structure maintain both material no of main & co-product , valid to and eq no

In house production time in material master .

Dear All ,
What will happen if i do not enter ( keep blank ) the inhouse production time in MRP 2 view ?
Where i am using routing for all inhouse produced material . all the scheduling parameter are correct as per routing considered .
i have checked the scheduling in routing for these material , scheduling appearing correctly . So this is supposed to be copied as it is in the planned order --> prodn order ( it is happening ) .
So if i do not use in house production time field in MRP2 what will happen ?
Pl guide

Hi,
It is the time to produce a product in a plant in no.of days.
In-house production time:
Specifies the time in workdays needed to produce the material in-house.
In-house production time is independent of the order quantity.
Use:
The system requires the in-house production time to determine the planned dates for planned orders in materials planning.
Procedure
You can define work scheduling times in the material master record in one of two ways:
Either you enter the in-house production time. If required, you can get the system to update this value from the routing.
Or you enter the setup, tear down, processing, and inter operation times. If you maintain these values, the system determines the in-house production time on the basis of lot size.
Production Planning and Control (PP)
The time required to produce the material in your plant.
You can enter the in-house production time depending on the order quantity or independent of the order quantity. It is calculated by adding the lead times of all operations, the float before production, and the float after production.
I hope it helps you. Any queries please revert me back.

Production orders without a material

Hi Guys,
Can anybody explain the scenario where the concept of production orders without materials come into picture.
Thanks
Shailesh

Hi,
In addition to above answers pls find the procedure of creating Production order w/o Material :
1.Creating Production Orders Without a Material
Choose Logistics ® Production ® Shop Floor Control ® Order ® Create ® Without material.
You reach the initial screen Create production order.
2.Enter the following data:
the plant
the sales order (you can specify a sales order as a reference.)
the order type (it controls whether an internal or external number range is used.)
if you have selected an order type for which an external number assignment is required then you must also specify an order number in the field Order.
3.You must also specify the following data:
the responsible MRP controller
the responsible production scheduler
If you want to create the order with reference to an existing order then the order referenced must also be one without a material.
4.Choose Enter.
The General tab page appears.
5.Enter the following data:
a Short text for the order
Total quantity: Specify the quantity and the unit of measure.
Order start date or order finish date: Depending on the scheduling type you must specify the order start and/or the order finish date.
Production orders are generally scheduled backwards.
Scheduling type: Use a key to specify how the order is to be scheduled.
Scheduling margin key or float before production, float after production and release period:
The release period, the float before production and the float after production of the order are defined using the scheduling margin key.
If you specify a scheduling margin key the system fills these fields automatically.
If no scheduling margin key has been specified you can specify the float before production, the float after production and the release horizon by specifying the corresponding number of days.
6.You must also specify the following data:
Scrap portion: You can specify the scrap quantity that you expect for this order.
Priority: You can assign the order a priority. This field does not affect order processing.
Long text: To create a long text for the production order choose the Long text tab page.
7.Choose .
You reach a dialog box where you can specify whether you want to use a reference operation set. If you do not want to use a reference operation set then a standard sequence is automatically generated with an operation.
The system searches for a valid routing (see Routing Selection) and a valid bill of material (see Selecting Bills of Material).
If alternative sequences exist in the selected routing, they can only be copied to the production order if alternative sequences are permitted for the order type in Customizing for Shop Floor Control: Choose Master data ® Order ® Define Order Type-Dependent Parameters.
If you do not want to change the operations or add any components, you can now save the production order. Otherwise, change the data and then save the production order.
Hope this helps.

Tejas

Production.Sched.Profile - PP-PI

Dear Forum Members,
While configuring the production scheduling profile in PP-PI,(using T.Code CORY) the option for setting automatic Goods receipt
is not displayed.Is there any OSS notes to be applied for resolving this or if not what could be the reason for not providing the
option for Auto GR in this profile particularly for PP-PI?Kindly please share your views.
Regards
Mangalraj.S

Hi Mangal,
In PP-PI , Auto goods receipt is done at the phase level, and done with the control key settings . Mostly auto GR is done in the last phase of last operation.
Is your product serialized or non-serialized? For serialized product, you cannot have have auto GR. GI and GR to be done by two separate operations. GR by MB31. For non-serialized products, certainly you can have GI and GR together.
Scheduling margin Key,
The float before production, float after production and the release period are defined in the scheduling margin key (Customizing for Shop Floor Control, by choosing Operations -- Scheduling--- Define Scheduling Margin Key) . The scheduling margin key is assigned to the material ( MRP area in the material master) and is transferred when the production order is created. These values can be changed in the production order.
You define the following floats with the scheduling margin key:
opening period
float after production (only in the case of in-house production)
float before production (only in the case of in-house production)
release period (only in the case of production order management)
Floats are always maintained in workdays.
Opening period- The number of working days between the date that the order is created and the planned start date.
This time is available for the MRP controller to convert a planned order into a purchase requisition or a production order.
float after production- The number of working days between the scheduled finish date and the order finish date; used as a float in production scheduling.
float before production- The number of working days between the order start date and the scheduled start date; used as a float in production scheduling.
release period- The number of workdays between the planned start date of the production order and the date for releasing the order.
If the order release indicator is set, the production order is released by a background program that takes all dates into account.
More Specifically , A schedule margin key consist of folowing days as required in a production order
1.Opening Period : The number of working days between the date that the order is created and the planned start date.
2.Float After Production :The number of working days between the scheduled finish date and the order finish date; used as a float in production scheduling
3.Float Before Production : The number of working days between the order start date and the scheduled start date; used as a float in production scheduling
4.Release Period of the Production Order : The number of workdays between the planned start date of the production order and the date for releasing the
The float before production, float after production and the release period are defined in the scheduling margin key (Customizing for Shop Floor Control, by choosing Operations  Scheduling  Define Scheduling Margin Key). The scheduling margin key is assigned to the material (MRP area in the material master) and is transferred when the production order is created. These values can be changed in the production order in CO02.
You define Scehduling Margin Key in -OPPQ/OPPR and same has been assinged to MMR in MM02 of that FG/SFG material .
