Forecast delivery schedules incorrect cumulative release quantity.

Hi Gurus,
We implemented the standard LZM - Scheduling agreement with delivery orders solution for component suppliers.
The entire SAP standard configuration activated and the functionality is working correct.
u2022     Scheduling agreement type LZM / Item category LZMA / Schedule line category L2
u2022     Order Type TAM / / Item category TAMA / Schedule line category CP
Example:
Scheduling agreement forecast delivery schedule for 1000 units./ Md04 show SchAgr of 1000 units
Delivery order for 250 units (MD04 Shows Order for 250 units and SchAgr for 750 Units)
Created delivery for the order (MD04 shows Deliv. For 250 units SchAgr for 750 Units)
Goods issue the delivery / MD04 shows the SchAgr for 750 units.
*Issue:*
When we update the Cumulative quantity received by the customer it is summing up with the forecast quantity (double counting the shipped quantity).
When the Cumulative quantity received by the customer updated to remove the in-transit quantity, the forecast is adding by 250 units and   MD04 shows SchAgr for 1000 units.
Thanks & Regards
Suresh

Hi Suresh
The *** issued qty gets updated when the PGI for the delivery happens. There is a field called *** received by customer and it gets updated when customer sends the *** back in the 830 or 862 as the case may be.
The difference between the *** issued and the *** recieved is always shown in transit.
If you do not want the schedule line to be opened up, then in *** recd change it to the *** issued or ideal option is populate the last delivery PGI'd on the delivery number field next to *** recd field. Hope this helps and let me know if you need any more informataion

Forecast delivery schedule lines consumption

Hi,
I cannot fully understand what is the logic behind the consumption of the forecast delivery schedule lines. This is how the problem can be exactly defined:
- scheduling agreement with delivery orders (LZM)
- JIT delivery schedules are not used and no delivery schedule is maintained... just a forecast delivery schedule
- the whole process is manual, there is no EDI implied
- the cumulative received quantity is updated by an ABAP development that is triggered at delivery goods issue
The rest, happens normal - forecast schedule lines are updated weekly, the customer send pick-up sheets, a TAM delivery order is created, then delivery, GI...
The problem: not always the MRP requirements generated by the forecast delivery schedule lines are consumed by the delivery order/GI. If the delivery orders / deliveries are made on the exact quantity of the schedule lines everything works fine. It is also ok when there are two successive delivery orders with a cumulative quantity that matches exactly the forecast line. As soon as a over-delivery is made, everything turns upside-down: older delivered schedule lines appear again in planning as if nothing was delivered until now...
I suspect that the problem is related to the fact that the whole process is manual and updating the cumulative received quantity is not the only parameter that is counting... is it so? Or the forecast delivery schedule has to be respected 100% in terms of quantities and timing?
I would really appreciate your help.
Regards,
H.

Also please clarify whether delivery schedule lines in ME38 (even it is created automatically), in Planning time fence, will get affected by MRP run.

Problems in GR for forecast delivery schedule

Hi all,
Whenever i try to post GR for forecast delivery schedule the systeme proposes a quantity equals to 0 evev though i sent the form to the vendor(using trans me9e &me9l).
Anubody knows why?

Hi Moshe,
If you are using your scheduling agreement type LPA(with document).Check wheather you have released the FC schedule in ME38.In the delivery schedule>edit>generate forecast schedule.
Then only you will get your message output in ME9E and MIGO.

Forecast delivery schedules and JIT deliveries

Hi Gurus,
Got a question on sales scheduling agreements schedule lines. Our customer sends 10 weeks of forecast delivery schedules and 2 weeks of JIT deliveries. which one of these two are passed to MD04?
Assuming only forecast delivery schedules are seen in MD04:
Assuming customer sends forecast delivery schedule for week2 as 50. but in JIT deliveries he only sent 40 for that week. if only forecast deliveries are see in md04, then my forecast and planning quantity is 50 , but actually my JIT delivery is only 40. AM I producing 10 extra? that means my planning is wrong?

925,
so in system it will show on 3/21 monday
I guess this means that you are entering using a Day format rather than Week format.
You have answered you own question already. If the online SAP help, which you have read and reasonably paraphrased, is not clear enough to make you understand this, I cannot help you.
JIT horizon is 3/23, Forecast is for 3/21.
As I stated before, even though it may in your mind represent a week's demand, it is still for one day. There is no bucketing, nor time-based disaggregation, nor consumption. It is just a scheduling agreement.
You wrote
am using MRP indicator D. that means within jit horizon, consider my jit quanity for requirements. and after jit horizon consider my forecast delivery schedules as requirements.
. This is a reasonable paraphrase of the SAP online help. Do you believe this?
Forecast schedule is for 3/21. NOT for W 12/2011. This is before the JIT horizon, isn't it? What do you think will happen to the forecast schedule, looking at the last 'rules' you just wrote? and as stated in the SAP help that you read?
Now you want to enter JIT schedules. 21/22/23/24/25/26. JIT horizon is 23. 24/25/26 are after JIT horizon. What do you think will happen, based on the 'rules' you just wrote?
I feel my time is being wasted when you keep asking me these questions, already having the answers explicitly stated in SAP oinline help. Since you do not have access to a system, this cannot be a support issue, it is a evidently a matter of idle curiosity for you. I therefore believe I will will move onto other forum questions, where there is a possibility that the questioners will get some business benefit from my answers.

Planning delivery schedule , forecast delivery schedule , JIT delivery sche

Hi
could any one tell me the difference between Planning delivery schedule , forecast delivery schedule , JIT delivery schedule & their respective ways of processing delivery???????????????????????????????????????????????/

Hello Friend,
Planning Delivery Schedule:
You want to plan requirements for a certain customer for the next 16 weeks. You create a planning delivery schedule on the basis of information that you have gathered in an internal planning system. A few days later, the customer sends you a forecast delivery schedule that covers only 12 weeks. You decide to generate a planning delivery schedule by copying the schedule lines from the forecast delivery schedule for those 12 weeks, splitting them into units and days that fit your production schedule. For the remaining four weeks that you require, you simply adopt schedule lines from the previous planning delivery schedule in the scheduling agreement.
For another customer, you create a six-week planning delivery schedule on the basis of internal data. When the customer sends in a forecast delivery schedule for the same six weeks, you notice that the first four weeks of schedule lines in the customer delivery schedule are detailed enough for production, but the last two are inaccurate. You decide to copy the first four weeks of schedule lines unchanged into the new planning delivery schedule. You adopt the remaining two weeks of schedule lines from the previous planning delivery schedule, which already exists in the scheduling agreement.
Forecast Delivery Schedule:
For an SD scheduling agreement, a customer sends a forecast delivery schedule containing requests for individual schedule lines. On the SD side, a delivery can be created automatically from this.
JIT Delivery Schedule:
A release carried out at an exact point in time of quantities in a schedule line (of a delivery schedule).
The JIT delivery schedule is way of fine tuning production for the customer and shipping for the vendor.
The term is used predominantly in the automobile component supplier industry.
Delivery in Forecast in done through VL10 & VL01N and Delivery through JIT is done from JITK.

Hi Experts,
i want to write a Report, with 2 parameters for the selection : Sold-to-party and Period
For this Sold-to-party/Period, I want to list all scheduling agreement + Forecast delivery schedule.
I already found the Function SD_VBEP_READ_WITH_VBELN to read all Forecast delivery schedule lines using Sales Doc.No. , but how can I select all Scheduling Agreement for the Period ?
Regards,
David

Solution:
by selecting data from table VEPVG (Delivery Due Index) and using function SD_VBEP_READ_WITH_VBELN for each SD Document.

Importance of Forecast Delivery Schedules in SD scheduling agreements

Hi ALL,
I would just like to consult you a scenario that I'm facing.
When I create a JIT scheduling agreement, even though that schedule lines are maintained for the JIT delivery schedule tab, if the Forecast delivery schedule tab has no schedule lines, the NET value of the document will be zero.
Can you explain the Logic behind this?
Also, why am I not allowed to create an outbound delivery and invoice if the Forecast Delivery schedule tab has no schedule lines?
I know that the document will be incomplete without the net value, but why is it even though schedule lines are created in the JIT tab?
Please help me with this.
Thanks in advance guys!

This is what I found out in an SAP “Knowledge Base Article" (1472965), indicating that there has to be requirements in the forecast delivery schedule in order for the schedujle agreement line item to not be considered incomplete for price.
https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/convert2pdf/002007204200000153012010?sap-language=EN
Resolution
l You have to enter schedule lines for the forecast delivery schedule
l The VBAP-NETWR is calculated based on forecast delivery schedule and not according to the JIT delivery schedule

Delivery schedules in SA(LPA)

Gurus,
I have created a LPA scheduling agreement and generated JIT schedule lines with Firm and Tradeoff zones through MRP.
Now, I want to release them manually.
could anyone let me know how these have to be released and sent to vendor with all the information about the zones.
I would really appreciate your help in this regard.
Cheers
Mittu G

Hi
You can create the SA release using transaction ME84.
Use transaction ME35L for approving/releasing the scheduling agreement.
For SA releases to be transmitted as messages to the vendor, the following settings must be made in Customizing for Purchasing:
Releases (Message Determination) at Item Level
In order for a separate message to be generated for each SA release (i.e. per scheduling agreement item and release type), you must set the Release message indicator in Customizing for Purchasing under
Define Message Schemas for SA Release/Expediter - > Assign Schema: SA Release/Expediter.
If you do not select the Release message indicator, the messages will be generated at header level. You can then view the messages under
Header-> Messages.
If you select the Release message indicator, the messages will be generated at item level. The messages generated are listed in the release documentation.
If you have initially not selected the indicator, messages will be generated at header level. If you select the Release message indicator at a later point in time, you will find the newly generated messages in the release documentation. You will still find the already generated messages under Header ->Messages.
Define "Main Message Type"
You must designate just one message type as the "main message type" for each SA release type (FRC or JIT delivery schedule) in Customizing for Purchasing, and set the indicator A (update print-dependent data) for this message type.
This means that when an SA release with the "main message type" is outputted, the print-dependent data is updated in the SA item, the SA releases, and the delivery schedule lines. Only if an SA release is outputted with the main message type is it taken into account in the current stock/requirements list, for example.
You set this indicator using the fine-tuned control facility for the message type.
In the case of scheduling agreements with release documentation (document type LPA), the message types LPH1 and LPJ1 are used for forecast delivery schedules and JIT delivery schedules respectively in the standard system.
In the case of scheduling agreements without release documentation (document type LP), the message type LPET is used in the standard system. In this case, no release is created. Instead, the message is generated as soon as the scheduling agreement delivery schedule (specifying the scheduled quantity) is created or changed.
Outputting Releases in the Main Message Type
All releases must always be created with the main message type because the system will otherwise not update the print-dependent data. This is particularly important if you are working with different message types.
You send SA releases to the vendor with the main message type LPH1. You provide the forwarder or carrier with a copy (message type LPH2) and create a printout for your own files (message type LPH3).
If you send SA releases to the majority of your vendors as printouts (i.e. in hardcopy form) and have an EDI arrangement with just a few of them, you can create message records for the main message type:
At document type level with the transmission medium "Print", and
At vendor/purchasing organization/EDI level with the transmission medium "EDI" for the EDI vendors.
Do not set the change indicator in the message overview. A set indicator has no effect in the case of scheduling agreement releases. As a general rule, the system outputs all releases that have not yet been transmitted.

Scheduling Agreements / Delivery Schedule / Firm zone, Trade zone

Dear all.
I am in the process of setting up scheduling agreements (LPA type) with firm zone and trade zone in SAP 4.5b
The following issues I have:
1.) with the release via ME84, it gives me an error 'no processing message ME 857, no message record found'.
As far as I know the customizing is correct. Can some one give a tip about what I maybe have forgotten?
2.) I am also using the firm and trade zone, but in the automatic generated delivery schedules line it is not turning up?
If there is any one who can help me with this subject, any information is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Wilfred

You have to create a condition record for your message type LPH1 in order to be able to generate the message (mn10).
At funcional level, try to update your schedule line manually through TCode me37 and then go to the ME84.
At customizing level, here are some things that were missing when it occurred to me :
Check in SPRO - Purchasing - Messages - Output Control - Message Types -
Define message type for scheduling agreement schedule lin - Fine-Tuned Control: Forecast Delivery Schedule/Expediter that you have operation 9 for LPH1 and the checkbox activated.
Check in SPRO - Purchasing - Messages - Output Control - Message Determination Schemas - DefineMessage Schema for Scheduling Agreement Release - Define Message Determ. Schema: Forecast Delivery Schedule/Ex in the control data : You must havefor LPH1 the requirement 109.
Hope it helps
Regards

JIT and Forecast delivery

Delivery schedule dates are coming in Past dates

Hi Friends,
In the Scheduling Agreements the delivery schedule dates are coming in the past dates even tough the scheduling agreements are having new schedules. There is also open quantities there for the scheduling agreements.
please kindly explain me what is the delivery schedule date in Scheduling Agreement.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kannan M

Hi Khan,
Just check this thease might be the reasons to get correct the delivery schedule.
To access a delivery schedule, mark a scheduling agreement item and choose Goto ® Item ® .
The following data is displayed in the delivery schedule tabstrip:
·        Delivery schedule number and date
·        A wide range of standard cumulative quantities
·        Delivery information
To display deliveries for the delivery schedule, choose Deliveries on the delivery schedule tabstrip.
In scheduling agreements involving external agents, the system displays deliveries made to the customer by external agents as consignment issues.
·        Correction delivery information
To display or create correction deliveries, choose Corr. delivery on the delivery schedule tabstrip.
·        An analysis function
·        Information at a glance
To display a summary of delivery schedule data, choose Short disp. on the delivery schedule tabstrip.
·        Schedule lines
Choose DlvSch.Hdr on the delivery schedule tabstrip to access the delivery schedule header. The following data is displayed here:
·        Information on quantities received by the customer
·        Information on the customer fiscal year and cumulative quantities reset due to a year change
·        A wide range of cumulative go-ahead quantities
·        Notes on the delivery schedule
Correcting Cumulative Delivered Quantities
Prerequisites
You correct cumulative quantities in scheduling agreements:
·        In case of returns
·        When there has been a processing error
·        When there has been a year change
·        When you are transferring initial quantities from a legacy system into the SAP System
To do this, you create a correction delivery within the delivery schedule itself. This delivery is not relevant for requirements planning, shipping, goods issue, or billing.
Correct cumulative quantities only when the customer has not posted goods receipt.
Procedure
To create a correction delivery (document type LFKO):
       1.      Choose Corr. delivery on the delivery scheduletabstrip.
The system displays a dialog box in which you enter a:
-         Correction delivery date
For help on deciding where you want to position the correction delivery, choose Display. The system lists delivery dates in chronological order.
-         Correction quantity
Enter a negative correction quantity by placing a minus sign after the quantity.
       2.      Choose Enter and save the scheduling agreement.
Result
When you save the correction delivery, the system updates the cumulative quantities in the delivery schedule.
To display correction deliveries, choose Deliveries on the delivery schedule tabstrip, or Environment ® Display document flow.
Example
Your customer returns 200 pieces of material from a delivery made on 7/10 because of damage during transport. Several other deliveries have been made before you prepare the correction delivery, so you view a list and choose an appropriate date. In this case you decide on 7/14 because it occurs after the delivery on 7/10 and before the delivery on 7/15.

Murthy V.N
