GOT STUCK IN MAKE TO ORDER SCENARIO

Dear All,
Ours is a Make to order concept where in PP would run MRP against a sale order and as a result planned orders will get generated.
we under MM will convert those Plnd orders into PR'S using MD15.while doing so it is obvious that system will copy the account assignment as "E".Till this there was no problem.
i have a semi-finished product which needs to be sent for subcontracting.Now for this i could able to convert the Plnd order into P.R where the account assignment "E" and the special procurement type from MRP2 "L'" is getting captured. Then i had converted into P.O. Eventually when i am trying to issue the components referring to that P.O, the system is issuing a message as"PO HAS NO ITEMS".
Kindly suggest as to any further settings are required.

Hi Syed,
Sorry, your process isn't totally clear to me.
You wrote:
1. 'i have a semi-finished product which needs to be sent for subcontracting'
2. 'here SFG will be my finished product for which i will issue the components'
Maybe I didn't understand your problem well, but according to your statements there's inconsistency in your scenario.
1. you have SFG
2. you send this SFG for subcontracting, and you want to send components as well
3. you want to get the SFG as the result of the subcon process
In my opinion:
1. you have SFG
2. you should issue 'L'-PO for your FG, where components are: SFG, component1, component2, etc
3. as the result of the process you should get FG
(and you can solve this as third-party PO - of course if you want)

Make to Order Scenario problem

i want to configure a make-To-Order Scenario
i have create an item category ZTAK (for Make to order items) ... and assigned it to my sales document type and the Material item category in sales view 2 is 0001 (Make to order)
when creating the sales order i got the following message
Transaction ZTAK PD is not defined
Message no. V1347
Diagnosis
This combination of item category ZTAK and MRP type for material PD is not allowed.
System Response
The system does not allow further processing of this item.
could any one help

Hi,
Configuration steps:
 Create material by specifying item category group as 0001 = Make u2013 to u2013 order (Normal item)
In MM01 Basic data tab, General item category field [0001] = Make u2013 to u2013 order, 0002 for configurable
material
Make u2013 to u2013 order checking group for availability check should be [02] = Individual requirements in Sales:
General/Plant tab.
 Go to VA01 and raise the sales order by specifying this material that we created in the previous step
Item category is TAK
Schedule line category = CP
Requirement type = KE [Sales order Header  Procurement  Requirement field]
KE = Individual customer order without consumption
(For standard items item category group = NORM)
System determines requirement type 041-order/delivery requirements. This requirement type points requirement
class where we can control whether the system has to carryout TOR, Availability check, and Product allocation
functions.
NOTE: Make sure that controlling area and fiscal year defined and maintained.
 Save and Exit
 Go to MB1C to initialize the stock
Movement type [561]
Specify special stock [E]
E = Receipt without purchase order in unrestricted sales order stock
Specify the sales order number [ ] and item number [10]
Specify the material with quantity
 Save and Exit
 Go to MMBE and check the stock balance
 Go to VL01N do the delivery
 Go to VF01 and raise the invoice
Hope this helps.

No accounting documents posted for Make to Order Scenario

Hi!
We are following the make to order scenario, but for product costing following product cost by order.
When goods receipts/goods issue are posting ( movement types: 101E & 601E), there are no accounting documents got generated.
can you suggest any one what I have to do?
I am OBYC settings are ok.

Hi
Check the account assignment category in the PO and check for the relevant GL account assignment.
It is purely the assignment.
Also check the field status settings for the movement types.

Mrp for make to order scenario

hi gurus,
I have got a different and challenging scenario in make to order planning. production planning has to be made on sales order basis.for eg : a particular finished product, a sale order of 100 nos is generated. but all 100 nos cannot be produced in single plant. so it has to be distributed to 2-3 plants. one more thing is, for make to order scenario, there is no fixed lot size. based on sale order quantity, planned order is created irrespective of fixed lot size maintained in material master. IF my batch size is fixed, for make to order also based on fixed based size, planned order has to be created.
Can anybody suggest a better solution for this scenario?
Thank you all in advance. all useful replies will be rewarded.
regards,
senthil

Hello,
For MTO, Lot for Lot order quantity is defaulted..
So your receipt element will be as per your Sales Order.
Try this:
In T. Code : OMI4, for Lot Size : EX
Change the MTO Lot size to "1" Lot-for-Lot with rounding.
(Which is Blank by default - lot-for-lot)
Maitain the Rounding Value in MRP-1 Screen or Use Rounding Profile..
This Helps..

Accounting Entry getting passed in case of Make to Order Scenario

Hi Experts,
In Make to Order scenario, as per my knowledge, when the goods is recieved from Production Order the Accounting entry gets passed is Inventory A/c Debit and Cost of Goods Produced Credit.
But how is Cost of Goods Produced, which is an expense, gets crebited? I am confused, because the above entry will create a credit balance to an expense account. Can anybody clarify this please?
Thanks and Regards,
Sameer Joshi

Thanks for the reply.
Do you mean that at the time of PGI, when the entry is posted to COGS, the amount of COP will also get transferred to COGS and then the whole amount will be posted at PGI?
Thanks and Regards,
Sameer

Customer number not in the inspection lot for a make to order scenario

Hi All,
I know that standard SAP will get the Customer number into Insp. lot only for insp. types 10/11/12. I am wondering if someone know a way to get the customer no. into insp. lot for insp. type 04 where the material is make-to-order scenario and the Production/Process order has the Sales order and customer no. without activating User-exit. The quality users want to be able to see the customer no. in insp. lot without having them to go to process order.
It makes no sense to me why the customer no. is not brought into insp. lot when that is available in the Prod/process order, which can further be used to select the customer specific insp. plans for 04 insp. type Insp. lot without using Variant configuration.
Any light on this topic is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Srikant,
I guess.........
Normally the inspection lot refers the triggering document that are the trigger cause for them.
- Inspection type 01: - Purchase Order and GR material document.
- Inspection type 03: - Pro. Order Number
The same way...
The inspection type 10\11\12 are purely related to the SD, and directly integrates QM and SD. Hence in the inspection lot for the inspection types directly integrated to SD, it will furnish the Sales order number \ Customer.
But the inspection type 04 is purely have it's relation to Production process. So it will have the details related to integrations it has i.e. the "Pro. Order." Hence it integrates QM-PP, it have the data related to PP (Pro Order), not the SD's one.
But I think one way you can achieve it,
Assign the Customer number also to the inspection plan along with the Material. So I think at the time of assigning the inspection plan to the inspection lot, it will refer the Customer number also and will display the Customer number along with Task list Group\Group Counter, in the inspection specification screen in QA03/02

Consignment stock, make to order scenario

Hi
We have a material which produce make to stock and make to order also.
In case of make to stock its fine. But when we are testing make to order then following is system behavour.
Action     Mvt Type     Accounting Document
GR     101     No Accounting Document
Consignment     631     Finish Inventory     Dr      at Standard Price
                    Consignment Inventory Change (VKA)     Cr
PGI     633     COGS     Dr      at Standard Price
                    Finish Inventory     Cr
My question is why not accounting document is generated at the time of GR 101 in case of make to order scenario.

Hi
MTO has 3 scenarios in it. (I think you either fall in Scenario 1 or 2)
1. Where the Qty of Prod order is tagged to sales order upon GR from prod order....
The valuation in this case happens at the std cost (CK11N).... Every thiing remains same as in MTS... You get variance as well
2. Where Qty & Value both are tagged to the sales order (Sales order is Cost Object & Stock is Valuated stock)
This is not recommended by SAP and should be chosen only in rare cases...
This scenario pertains to Complex MTO, means totally manufactured based on customer demand.. Like Cars, Boeing Air Crafts, etc
Sale order is a cost object...
Sales order cost estimate is done when sales order is created...
GR is valuated at sales order cost estimate... Variances are calculated based on this cost and actual cost incurred..
PGI and Revenue post to the sales order because SO is the CO object
Finally Sales order is settled to COPA
3. Where Qty & Value both are tagged to the sales order (Sales order is Cost Object & Stock is Non Valuated stock)
This is recommended by SAP
This scenario pertains to Complex MTO, means totally manufactured based on customer demand.. Like Cars, Boeing Air Crafts, etc
Sale order is a cost object...
Sales order cost estimate can be done when sales order is created...
GR is Non valuated... No Variances are calculated because GR is non valuated
Production Order settles upon sales order.. hence, actual cost goes to sales order...
PGI does not generate accounting doc because stock is Non Valuated
Revenue post to the sales order because SO is the CO object
Finally Sales order is settled to COPA
These are the 3 possible scenarios in MTO... There might be a slight variation in Consignment scenario.... I am nt sure if the "No Accounting doc" situation at GR is OK or not

Make to order Scenario...

Hi Friends,
I have maintained all required fields for make to order scenario.....
In MRP 3, Strategy Group- 20
in house production time- 2 days
But when I punched sales order , in schedule line tab of order item .....order quantity in getting confirmed before proceeding to further process in make to order ( Production order , Material Planning and before production order is getting confirmed ).
My problem is that in make to order scenario, sales order quantity is getting confirmed before proceedings further.
So kindly advised as to be done to get rid of this problem
Thanks in advance
Shailesh

Hi Shailesh,
Please check the configuration settings in the IMG for Availability check.
You check have maintaining availability checking group 01 or 02 in the Material master.
Have you assigned Checking rule AE -SD order; make-to-order stock for checking group 01 or 02 in the IMG
Spro>sales and distribution>Basic functions>Availability check and transfer of requirements>Availability check>Availability check with ATP logic/Against planning>Carry out control for availbility check.
I hope it will help you,

Make to order scenario (GR Nonvaluated indicator is on by default)

Hello Friends,
I am working on make to order scenario. I have assigned planning strategy 20 to the material. Against this material i created one sales order. Now with reference to this sales order i am creating the production order by transaction CO08. While doing these when i am checking under goods receipt tab, i am finding that GR Nonvaluated indicator is on by default. Because of this when i am doing the GR against these production order, system is not generating any accounting documents.
I am unable to find how the GR Nonvaluated indicator under Goods Receipt tab in production order is on by default, in make to order scenario.
Kindly share your valuable input on these.
Thanks and Regards,
Jitendra Chauhan

Make to Order Scenario Process Flow

Hi Friends -
I am looking for simple Make to Order scenario with BOM Components with Routing.
The process flow I want to execute -
1. Create a Sales Order for a Finished Product (Product should have a BOM for Production)
2. Do the product Materials Planning for the Sales Order through MD50
3. Get all the dependent material requirements (both for products as Planned Order and also for BOM Components - all the BOM components should also be planned)
4. Convert Planned Order for Product to Production Order
5. Convert Planned Orders for BOM components to Purchase Requisition
6. Confirm Production Order
Pls correct me if I my process flow is wrong or requires modification.
I will appreciate if you can validate the above process flow and guide me to execute the same in the system.
Pls help me on configuring the system and setting up the materials and related master data for the same.
Thanks in advance
Purnendu

Dear GSL - Pls check the following details
1. I have created a Material Master data for Finished Product (FERT).
2. I have assigned Item Category Group - 0004, and General Item Category group as 0004 ( Make to Order / Assembly).
3. I have assigned MRP Type PD in MRP 1 View and Strategy Group 20 (Make to Order Production) in MRP 3 View.
4. Now created a Universal (Type 3) BOM for the product with one material component.
5. Now also created a Routing for the Material with two operations having PP01 a control key.
6 When I try to create a Sales Order for the finished material it is giving message
Configuration not possible for material 747 : Reason 3 --> Help
Message no. V1360
Diagnosis
This may have been caused by one of the following:
1. The configuration profile for the material allows or requires the bill of materials to be exploded during order processing. However, a plant has not been specified in the item.
2. The configuration profile of the material allows or requires the bill of materials to be exploded during order processing, but the order quantity in the item must be greater than 0.
3. A configuration profile has not been maintained
or
A configuration is not permitted for the material
or
4. The configuration profile of the material allows or requires the bill ofmaterials to be exploded during order processing. However, the system could not determine a date because important data is missing from the item (see incompletion log).
This message is also coming in the Incompletion log f the sales order.
I have not checked the Configurable Indicator for the material in the Basic Data 2 view of the materials master, but still the message related to Configuration is coming.
Pls help e on this.
Thanks and warm regards

Re Sales order stock in make-to-order scenario

Hi
    While doing make-to-order scenario after doing production order confirmation for the raw material the reserved stock is reduced but sales order stock is not reduced. how to solve this.
Thanks
Antony

Dear,
If you are using strategy 20 then please note,
You also must maintain the following master data settings for the finished product:
Strategy group 20 on the MRP screen
Item category group (such as NORM) on the Sales Organization screen
Sales Order -> MRP -> Customer Stock Finished Product -> Delivery -
+
   ^                                                                                |
   |                                                                                |                                                --      Reduction--
Goods Issue for Delivery and Reduction of Planned Independent Requirements
After goods issue for the delivery (choose Logistics -- Sales and distribution -- Shipping --Delivery --Create), the stock/requirements list is reset

ATP - Make to Order Scenarios

Can anyone advise how ATP works for make to order scenarios? In the first place, shd there be ATP for make to order scenarios? Since the production order created is associated directly with that particular sales order.
1. w/o assembly processing
I noticed SO for this case is always confirmed based on lead time towards customer. However, any date changes in the production order does get updated into SO schedule lines. Why is this so? In the event if there's any delay, material availability shd be change due to change in order completion date. Why is different from case with assembly processing?
Thanks
Peter

ATP:
Available-to-promise is the quantity of a material or part still available to MRP which can be used for new sales orders.
Available to Promise. It is the process of checking the available quantities of a material. The ATP quantity is equal to warehouse stock plus the planned receipts (incoming stocks). ATP takes in to account all movements into and out of the warehouse.
If selected, it can check the stock examined for ATP that can be safety stock, stock in transfer, stock in quality inspection, & blocked stock, although the planned receipts & planned issues of the stock associated with ATP may be purchase orders, purchase requisition, planned orders, production orders, reservations, dependent reservations, dependent requirements, sales requirements & delivery requirements.
The ATP quantity is calculated according to the following formula: ATP quantity = warehouse stock + planned receipts - planned issues.
