Get Safety Stock... Coverage Profile

Great Gurus
How we can calculate the safety stock at concerned. we have maintained , Coverage profiles. Dynamic Safety Stock. as i understand. may be this can be get . ( assuming coverage profiles is 30 days ). Monthly sales forcast or stock requirment / 30. ???
Just confused. how to get this safety stock.
Regards\Adnan

Great Gurus
yes this is right.
I am a SD consultant. this time i need to just check the safety stock quanity. in my view. in this scenarious. From Coverage Profile ( Dynamic Safty Stock )
ADR = Monthly sales forcast or stock requirment \ 30
coverage profie = 11 days
Safety Stock = ADR * Coverae profile
Please help me above is right or something else is just for calculation of safety stock . ( Once agian we are doing this throgh Coverage Profile ).

Stock Coverage profile with more tha 100 days (dynamic Safety Stock)

Hello,
My customer is using dynamic safety stock using coverage profiles up to 95 days.
Now a new requierment emerged which states that they need to extend the coverage to 100, 120 and 150 days of safety stock.
I looked into the config buy as far as I understand it, I can only configurate up to 99 days of coverage in each period!
Anyone had has this requierment form their Customers before and how did they resolve it?
Thanks for any clue.
Bye
Aart

Not in front of system, working from memory here...
In OMIA, there must be a field called No. of periods (or something like that) maintain a value 2 there & for no. of days in a given period maintain 50. This should address the need for 100 days, likewise you can workout for the remaining.
Do a test with the above in your sandbox & let me know if you face any specific issues.

Safety stock coverage by Planned order

Dear all,
when I set the static safety stock for material w/o any other requirement in the MD04 and run MRP, system will generate Planned order to cover the safety stock. Safety stock availability for MRP is set to 0 (that´s correct in this case)
It´s expected by my customer, when there are no requirements (reservations, sales orders etc.) system will not generate any Planned order even if there is a "shortage" caused by the safety stock.
Does anybody have an experience with this?
Example in MD04:
Stock 100
Safety stock -101
Available stock -1.
No requirement.
=> System should not create any Planned order.
Thanks for answers.

Hi,
You may try by defining safety stock availabilty ( in terms %) for a plant + Mrp group in IMG setting.
menu path for ur reference :
Material Requirement Planning
   |_ Planning
         |_ MRP Calculation
                  |_ Stocks
                          |_ Define Safety Stock Availability
Here you define the percentage of the safety stock to be available for planning. This function is used to avoid a situation where order proposals are created unnecessarily by the system to cover small shortage quantities.
Hope this is useful,

Independent requirements within dynamic safety stock policy

Hi Community,
I was wondering if we can setup a dynamic safety stock (coverage profile) without using consumption based forecasting? Our forecast is provided through the SCM DP. If yes, which MRP type should we use?
Many thanks for any feedback,
Noël

Hi Noel
Yes, it is possible to use a coverage profile without consumption based forecasting. You can use an MRP type with MRP procedure, such as PD.
See my answer on the following thread for more details about the coverage profile logic on MRP:

Automatic Safety Stock

Hi Experts,
Currently MRP type is PD & Planning is make to order for finished goods.
I have requirement, wanted system to calculate safety stock automatically based on consumption value for Raw material.
Material should be further Planned in the same way, But if stock falls below safety stock , it creates a Purchase requistion.
System should calculate the safety stock rather than Manually entered.
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek Kumar

Hi Robert,
I don't know whether this will suffice your requirements, but actually it sounds like "Dynamic Range of Coverage".
It is like you want to keep the stock of certain materials as safety stock (coverage of requirements in exigencies) for certain number of days, weeks etc.
For example, one material has got average consumption (depenedent on main requirement of parent materials) requirements of 50 pc. per day and you want to keep a supply of 3 days in hand to cover unforeseen reqmnts, then based on this consumption pattern system will automatically calculate 50 * 3 = 150 pc. extra as safety stock, often called Dynamic Safety Stock.
As & when the main requirements change for parent materials, the depenedent requirement also changes, and hence the dynamic safety stock. For example, if the demand has increased such that average consumption per day comes out to be 80 pc., then calculation of safety stock will be 80 * 3 = 240 pc. extra (as you always want to cover 3 days requirements).
If this is your requirement, then try configuring this feature by creating suitable profiles for Range of coverage (depending on certain groups of materials, like for some you want to get coverage for 2 days, some for 5 days, some for 1 day and so on). And assign the suitable profile to corresponding material master. This will work with normal PD type of MRP without any tweaking.
Reply whether it worked for you.

Safety Stock (o reserved) to a Customer Cluster

Hi Dudes...
I have a need to define in our Stock Levels the next requirement:
1. We have a 2 big Customer type or kind in the Company: Self Services (supermarkets) & Wholesalers

- Reorder Point
- Safety Stock
3. We need to get that when the stock level fall down the safety Stock, this remaining stock stay only to Self services customer and till the replenishment be triggered then, the stock could be again for the 2 kinds of customer.
Is there any setting or customizing ti get this scenario?
This is really important to the company, I'll appreciate your soon support.
Please let me know if my question is clear.

How to Avoid Getting Safety Stock Replenishment Too Early in an ASCP Plan [ID 301629.1]
In order to line up the safety stock supply with the changes in safety stock, a combination of the profiles must be used:
MSC: Use FIFO Pegging as yes
and the plan option
Peg Supplies by Demand Priority is checked.
The profile MSC: Use FIFO Pegging as yes will perform the following:
For all demands and supplies, it proceeds item by item and
pegs supplies to demands on a daily basis. Daily supplies
and demands are not sorted. When supplies or demands
on a given date are used up, it picks from supplies or
demands on the next date. The unpegged supplies are
pegged to excess.
The peg supplies by demand priority combined with the profile above will prevent the system to plan ahead for safety stock.
Also no safety stock smoothing is setup.
To implement the solution, please execute the following steps:
1. Please set the profile:
MSC: Use FIFO Pegging as yes and
2. Under the plan settings in the main tab the set the following options:
Enable Pegging ON

Safety Stock Not Being Released To Cover New Sales Orders Or Forecast

Hi,
Does anyone know of a way to get safety stock at the lower levels of the BOM to get released for upper level sales order or forecast demand without having to adjust the effectively out to a future date?
Example:
A = Finish goods item with two weeks lead time
B= component of A and it has two weeks lead time
C= component of B and has 10 weeks lead time.
Have safety stock hard coded with an effective date of today for 100,000 units.
I have 100,000 in inventory and I have planned orders to cover all my demands and future safety stock requirements for the next ten weeks.
I receive a new sales order for 50,000 units with a customer request date five weeks out.
I am getting ATP dates to assign to the new sales order 14 weeks out versus allowing me to use 50,000 units from the safety stock to schedule in week five?
Even If I schedule the sales order for five weeks, because I have gone down two levels to confirm that I have safety stock, and It could be used, planned orders would not get generated at the next two levels, because the demand date on the safety stock is earlier than the demand date for the new order?
Is there any resolution that anyone has found that addresses this issue?
We have set a demand priority rule on the ASCP plan options tab to "Sales Order Priority" where we have set criteria for number one to "Sales Orders & MDS Entries Priority" and number two to "Schedule Date".
We have found that adjusting the supply and demand dates out to cover the full 14 week period does reduce the safety stock at the lower levels, but it also creates additional starts and inventory to be put into the line, which makes this approach not feasible.
Does anyone have any solutions to this problem? We do not build safety stock for the sake of building safety stock. We want it to be used for any sales order or forecast demand that comes within the planning horizon.
Appreciate any inputs.
Regards,
Dave

Determing safety stock ,stock in transit and free stock,

Hi ,
I need to get safety stock , stock in transit and free stock as apperaing in the planning book , i dbugged the planning book and i find one funtion module which is using the live catche concept by passing some memory id. is there any funtion module or bapi is available by passing the product , plant and market can i get the stock.or else pls let me know the table name of the above stock is maintained.
Thanks

try using BAPI_STSRVAPS_REQUESTLIST2 to read the stock
not sure if all the stock figures will appear in it (safety stock is a calculated KF and may not be picked up here)
BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 shoudl give you the planning book details including the safety stock
if you can see it in the planning book and it is a time series KF you can extract it using this

Safety Stock Planning not completing - /n/SAPAPO/MSDP_SB T-Code

While running Safety Stock Planning (/n/SAPAPO/MSDP_SB transaction) in SCM for products at a particular location, the system hangs and never completes the process. The message at the bottom is u201CDetermining Demand Information: <location> <product>u201D. This process works fine when running on any product at another location.
In order to avoid the above infinite/endless loops, in the Safety Stock Planning Profile, the checkbox for Execute Cycle Test was selected. While this did resolve the endless loop that the program was running, it now results in an error.. Now, it gives an error message "Cycle found for product <product> at location <location>".
Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply....it was really helpful.
We verified T-Lanes by using t-code WUF. There was transportation lane between location 6000 and location 6010 and vice -versa with all products selected. So, we put a block on all products on one T-Lane.
Thanks.

Dynamic Safety Stock Calculation

Dear All,
We have set Dynamic Safety stock for finish good.
Below is the screen snap for Coverage profile for your reference,
After MRP we have get results as shown in below screen,
Also find Monthly results for the same in below screen,
Can anybody who has worked or Dynamic Safety stock please explain the calculation in detail for this scenario.
Thanks,
Narresh

Hello Naresh
Regarding the coverage profile calculation, I'd like to ask you to go through the following notes, which explain the range of coverage usage in MRP in detail:
217144 - Range of covrage calc. w/ range of coverage profile
217080 - Documentation: range of coverage in MRP
Let me explain to you in more detail the range of coverage calculation during the MRP run.
Calculating the range of coverage serves to determine a dynamic safety stock level based on current requirements. Statistical, in this context, means it is not the actual requirements that are taken into account, but the average daily requirements within a defined period that are calculated by the system.
MRP will execute the following procedure:
The system calculates the average daily requirements using theparameters defined in the range of coverage profile
The system reads the defined ranges of coverage in the range of coverage profile and calculates the minimum, maximum and target range of coverage (see Calculating the Minimum, Maximum and Target Stock Level and Values of the Statistical Range of Coverage Calculation). Thetarget stock level represents the safety stock level.
System checks for every MRP element whether the available quantity is below the minimum stock level. If stock falls below the minimum stock level due to a requirement, the system creates a procurement proposal and thus calculates the procurement quantity, so that the available quantity is replenished up to the target stock level.

Safety stock calculation

Hi all,
1. How the system calculates the Safety stock requirement for the raw materials?
Requirement is,
I am doing monthly production planning for the FG materials. And i want to keep all the raw materials stock as 15, 30 and 45 days stock as safety stock of the respective FG BOM raw materials. Bu the safety stock requirement for the each raw material is different.
How to get the safety stock requirement quantity for the required raw materials?
Actually I tried with coverage profile and the safety time / range of coverage in the MRP 2. But I did not any results. i think I may be wrong ,when I am working with coverage profile and safety time / range of coverage.
Please suggest me the appropriate solution for the above requirement.
Example,
Month     April
FG Material (XYZ)     1000
BOM for XYZ
Component     Qty     stock
RM1     2     100
RM2     1     150
RM3     1.5     500
As per the BOM the actually requirement for the RM1, 2, 3 are 1900, 850 and 1000 respectively.
I want to maintain the safety stock of the raw materials for RM1 for 15 days, RM 2 for 30days and RM3 for 45 days stock based on the gross requirement qty. So my total requirement as per the safety stock requirements is as below said, for the raw materials like,
RM1 is 2000(gross requirement qty) +1000 (safety stock requirement for 15 days) -100 (available stock) =2900
RM2 is 1000(gross requirement qty) +1000 (safety stock requirement for 30 days) -150 (available stock) =1850
RM3 is 1500(gross requirement qty) +2250 (safety stock requirement for 45 days) -500 (available stock) =3250
How to get the above explained requirement quantities for the raw materials like RM1,2,3.

Srinivas

How do I configure CTM for Coverage Profile days of ECC6.

Dear Srinivas Krishnamurthy,
Will you please provide some guidelines or procedure on CTM to make use of Saftry time indicator and safety cvoverage period, which will pre-pone the requirement to that many days (Coverage profile), where the PR or Planned order will be generated in previous to that many number of days from the month requirement is entered and this will get added to the fallen month requirements.
I am completly new to CTM.
Thanks in advance.
With regards,

Sweth, you are asking for consulting, and in my opinion it is way beyond what can or should be reasonable to achieve in such a forum. You are asking complex questions, that most probable have more than one possible answer.
I suggest that you get on-site help from a knowledgeable and experienced consultant. These are crucial business issues, and should be dealt seriously.

Max number of days in Target Range of Coverage Profile

I created a range of coverage profile to use for dynamic safety stock... I set my period indicator to 'M' for months... however it appears that the system calculates my average daily requirement and then multiplies that by my target, min, and max. the field for target, min, max is a two character field, so does this mean that i can not exceed a target of 99 days of supply?

My period indicator is set to "M", and when the system calculates my average daily usage it does base the calculation on monthly periods. However when MRP is executed it calculates my target safety stock level by multiplying the avg. daily requirement and the target range of coverage (avg.daily req. X target DOS). What this means is if i want to keep 3 months of safety stock, in the profile i have to put '90' in as my target range of coverage, rather than '3'.
Therefore, because the field is only 2 characters you can't have more than 99 days of supply... correct?
