Henry

Hi Henry
If u want to release the schedule agreement even though u use LP document type then
Goto SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Schedule agreement-Define document types....Here in LP document type, click the check box of release docu. Then system will prompt for release...

If your strategy is set up so that all three levels must release the agreement before it is final released I do not believe you can generate a printout.

Scheduling Agreement - Automatic Release Individual Schedule Lines

Dear all.
I've create a "LPA" scheduling Agreement and its release type is "JIT". So, I use to ME38 to maintain the individual JIT delivery schedule lines.
The problem I have is this method requires the person to manually release each individual delivery schedule line document on the due date before GR is allowed. Hence, is there a SAP system function that can automatically release any due delivery schedule line document without having to manually track and release using ME38 each day/week/month?
Thanks.
Steven

Hello
use t.code ME84 then system release the sch.lines automatically those maintained with me38.

Scheduling Agreement - Cannot Release, cant create message in LPA

Hello,
I have gone through all the threads on Scheduling Agreement but could not find the answer to the problem I am facing.
I created scheduling agreement through LP, everything went through smooth.
Now while create scheduling agreement through LPA, I am facing these problems, I cannot create output message while using ME38, but can create message through ME32L, but message output through me32L just creates printout of required quantity, no line items printed on it, and when I try to create output message through ME38 the message window comes in display mode, whereas while creating output message through LP, it allowed me to configure it. So first question, how can I enter my output setting in ME38 where SA is created through LPA.
Secondly document is created through LPA, but I cannot release it through ME84. I followed all the required settings, but its not letting me release the document, the traffic light is constant RED. Any ideas?
Lastly, No GR. Going through forum messages, I learnt that until the document is not released I cannot do GR. The dates of lines I changed it to post date, even behind the post date, but its still coming up as document doesnot have selectable items. Please help
Thanks/Afshad

Hello Prasand,
Your answer was helpful, but all these steps mentioned by you were already followed by me. My one question got answered there, why I get the messages in ME38 in uneditable format, but when I use ME84 for SA release, the result comes up in Red, and there I dont see any option to go further. Am I missing any step before it?
I clicked on List>Print Preview, the messages of JIT are there, then I click List> Print, dialog box comes up asking Output Device, I use default device LP01 there and then when I click OK message comes up Spool request (number 0000005941) created without immediate output and the problem remains no Sa released. Any help?
3. Ensure that the output message condition records for output types LPJ1 / LPH1 maintained.
Is this line refering to Customizing>MM>Purchasing>Messages>Output control>conditions tables?Define Condition tables, if yes I dont know how to configure this and havent read anywhere how to get this part configured.
I configured Output control>Messages Determination Schemas>Define messages schemas for SA>Define Message determination schemas, there in control data, i put LPJ1 and LPH1 requirements as 105 which is for delivery schedule, earlier it was pointing to 109 and 111, then Assign Schema: Sa release/expiditer I checked the R indicator. Am I correct?
I guess without the SA release, I cannot do the GR against my SA as when I do GR it gives message no selectable items.

Scheduling agreement without usage in MRP / MD04

Hello,
i want to use a scheduling agreement which isn't relevant for MRP. I use the standard agreement type LPA (Scheduling Agreement). The storage location for this process is marked as u201Cstock excluded from MRPu201D and the Source list record is also not relevant to MRP. Although I set these parameters, the schedules appear in MD04.
Is there any possibility like the requirement class in SD? In SD I can set the parameter "Transfer of requirements".
Regards
Andreas

It wont be possible to exclude seperate document type from MRP.
Excluding a Sloc wont work. MD04 list will show the Scheduling Agreement.
You can use a Custom 'Z' Logic to supress the Scheduling agreement from MD04. the program can be written in ABAP Code.

Scheduling Agreements without MRP

Hi !
I have a depot scenario wherein the organization doesnt have MRP runs configured.
Can we by any way configure Scheduling Agreements for customers, the basic purpose of which will be automatic creation or otherwise proposal of creation of deliveries on the required delivery dates, based on the available stock of materials?
Thanks and regards,
Shamik.

This is correct !

Schedule Lines generated for expired Scheduling agreements

Hi All,
We are facing problems in Scheduling agreements.
Schedule lines are getting generated for those agreements whose validity has expired(i.e Validity in Past).
Is there any check to restrict those Scheduling Agreements??
Please Help.
Regards,
Ritesh.

from OSS note 914607 - FAQ: Validity and status of scheduling agreements
1. Question: When I process scheduling agreements without delivery schedules, I have the option to specify the validity of the scheduling agreement: "Valid" and "Valid to". What role does the validity play when the scheduling agreement is processed?
Response: In the case of scheduling agreements without delivery schedules, the system checks the validity of the scheduling agreement if you create a new schedule line or change an existing schedule line. If the schedule line date is outside the validity interval, a warning message is issued. You can then decide whether or not to create the schedule line or whether to adjust the validity of the scheduling agreement. No error message is issued.
2. Question: What role does the validity play in the case of scheduling agreements with delivery schedules?
Response: The function is similar to scheduling agreements without delivery schedules. The only difference is that the entry of the validity is optional (unlike scheduling agreements without releases) and this is not checked by the system. If the validity is missing, the system does note issue a warning message. If you specify the validity, the system behaves in the same way as for scheduling agreements without releases.

Document type LPA in schedule agreement

any one can explain me document type LPA in schedule agreement. I read books as that is document type with release documentation. And what is the diff between LP and LPA?

Dear,
Please find below, which I found by search and posted by fellow collegues earlier....
Default quantity for goods receipt
In the standard system, the quantity open to date from the last- transmitted SA release is used in the case of scheduling agreements with release documentation (document type LPA). In the case of scheduling agreements without release documentation (document type LP), the open quantity to date is used.
Document Type of Scheduling Agreement
As a rule, the APO scheduling agreement in the SAP R/3 system is a scheduling agreement with the document type LP or a scheduling agreement without release documentation.
If you use scheduling agreements of the document type LPA without confirmation control key then no default quantities can be determined from the release upon goods receipt.
If you use scheduling agreements of the document type LPA with confirmation control key then the default quantities from the confirmation (shipping notification) are used.
As a rule, the OLTP scheduling agreement in the SAP R/3 System is a scheduling agreement with the document type LPA.
A scheduling agreement is a longer trem agreement with a vendor covering the supply of materials subject to predefined conditions.The conditions are valid for a pre defined period and a pre defined total purchase order quantity.
You can enter the Target value in the header data of the scheduling agreement.You can enter the Target quantity in the item overview for each item
You can use scheduling agreement with or without release documentation.The advantage of working with scheduliing agreement release documentation is that you always have a record of when you sent which delivery schedule information to your vendor,which you can display at any time.
Without release documentation(Document type LP)
The delivery schedule lines have official character-that is to say,they are transmitted to the vendor as they are saved in the system.The system does not document in detail releases aganist the scheduling agreement that have been sent to the vendor.Therefore,in the case of the document type without release documentation,the message control facility should be set up in such a way that a message is immediately sent to vendor if any changes are made to the delivey schedule stored in the system.
With release documnetation(Document type LPA)
If you use scheduling agreement with release documentation,the delivery schedule lines are not transmitted directly to the vendor.Intially ,the lines of the delivery schedule stored in the system for an LPA scheduling agreement for an internal information only.A message informing the vendor of your material requirements cannot be transmitted to the vendor until you explicitly create an SA release,that is forecast (FRC) or Just in Time(JIT) delivey schedule.Through this process,you can change the way schedule lines are represented.With release documentation,you can disply the SA releases(delivery schedules) transmitted to a vendor over a certain period of any time.This enables you to trace precisely when you sent which information to vendor.

About scheduling agreement

Hi,
Can anoybody tell me that what is the difference between scheduling agreement with release document and scheduling agreement w/o release document?
what are the benefits of the scheduling agreement with release document?
Thanks
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
Release nothing but creating output messages which we will send to vendor ( just like purchase order output message like printouts), by automatically ( without release, document type LP) or depending upon certain criteria i.e with release, document type LPA.
If you ar using scheduling agreements without release documentation ( document type LP), the message is generated directly. i.e the movement you save the schedule lines the system creates the delivery schedule and sends to the vendor
If you are using scheduling agreements with release documentation ( document type LPA), you must explicitly generate SA releases ( FRC or JIT)
The schedule lines of a scheduling agreement release contain finalized information for the vendor regarding quantities and delivery dates. The schedule lines are recorded with the aid of the release documentation and can thus be displayed and verified at any time. The release documentation enables you to see which schedules you transmitted to the vendor during the last two weeks, for example, and check the correctness of goods receipts against the relevant schedule lines.
In the case of with release (delivery schedules) the output messages are controlled by creation profile.
Creation profile
1.     it aggregates the release (i.e. scheduled) dates and quantities
2.     It generates an SA release in accordance with the creation strategy and the entries on the initial screen for SA release creation.
3.     The releases (delivery schedules) are transmitted as messages to the vendor
The advantage of with release is you can create forecast delivery schedule (FRC) and Just in time delivery schedule ( JIT)
Forecast (FRC) delivery schedule
Provides the vendor with longer-term data regarding the quantities needed of a material and when delivery is required. In such schedules, the timing of delivery is usually expressed in terms of calendar months or weeks. Note: approximately equivalent EDI terms for the forecast delivery schedule are: planning schedule with release capability (ANSI 830) delivery schedule (message) (EDIFACT DELFOR), and delivery instruction (ODETTE DELINS).
       Just-in-Time (JIT) delivery schedule
Provides the vendor with data on required quantities and desired delivery dates/times covering the near future.In such schedules, the timing of delivery is usually expressed in terms of specific days or even times of the day. Note: equivalent EDI terms for the JIT delivery schedule are: Shipping schedule: (ANSI 862) and Delivery just in time message (EDIFACT DELJIT).
Thanks

ME38 resets Release strategy of Scheduling agreement

Hello,
It seems when the users change the delivery date in the delivery schedule (transaction ME38), the system in some cases resets the release strategy of the scheduling agreement from "Release" to "Not Release".It happened only in some case,release indicator set to "4" in our case.
I cannot understand why this happens.
Has anyone encountered such a problem before.
Thanks
Sunil

Below are the (changed) item fields :
Purchasing Document Item Change Date AEDAT
Item Delivery Date EINDT
Schedule Line is "Fixed "FIXKZ
Below are the (changed) header fields :
Release Indicator: Purchasing Document FRGKE
Release status FRGZU
Purchasing document processing state PROCSTAT
Item and header changes have same "Change document number " and transaction code "ME38" , this happened only in some cases,Rel Strategy is on document type level ,I am also confused on this .
Please assist on this

Schedule agreement releases

How I will come to know the Schedule Agreement is released or not in ME84? LPA is agreement type.
ME84 I have executed and next screen green light is coming.
But while going to ME33L and seeing Release number ,its 0.
Please explain how I can do this?
Thanks

Hi PS,
You need to output the last relase. Once you process it's output successfully, it would be considered. Otherwise not.
Any release which is not transmitted, is not considered as valid for use in SA.

GR for scheduling agreement schedule lines

Dear All,
I have created a scheduling agreement with release. The FRC and JIT delivery schedules are created and transnmitted to vendor.
I am not able to make GR for the first delivery schedule line. If I give the ref. as the schedulinjg agreement in GR, System gives a message " document XYZ does not cantain any selectable items"
Message no. M7064
Regards.
Milind Dugade

Hi Madhura,
I checked all the parameters and found that the delivery date in schedule is 21.11.2008. I tried to post Gr with posting date as 21.11.2008, but the system is giving the message "Document 5500000138 does not contain any selectable items"
I had already checked the schedule is released and transmitted to vendor. The status is green agaist that scedule.
Regards and Thanks

Change in Scheduling Agreement

Hi Experts
Scheduling agreement is released through release indicator 1(No change possible) and also outputted. Now user wants to cancel the release but its throwing error as: "Document already outputted".
Is there any wayout to cancell / change/release the SA. User does not want to keep the SA open in sys for long.
Many thanks in Advance
Basab

Hello Basab,
Even we had encountered the similar issue, for your kind information.
1)Once the PO is ouputted, then the NAST table will be updated with processing status = 1. Once this entry comes in NAST table, then as a standard SAP feature, one cannot unrelease the PO/SA.
2)Release(Changeability) indicator 1, is a different concept altogether. Here we cannot change any PO/SA doc without unreleasing the same if Changeability indicator is 1
3)Even though changing the table entry is not recommended, here in this case, that is the only option which can be seen. That is, value in processing status field has to be changed from 1 to 0 in NAST table(i.e changing the table entry). This is the only way out, even though changing the table entries are not recommended).
4)Changing this entry in NAST table, will not be having any other impact,for your kind information. After changing the table entry, it will definitely allow you to unrelease SA.
Regards
Mahesh
