HELP - MRP and Stock in subcontractor!

Hello SAP gurus,
I have a little problem with MRP and the stock in the subcontractor.
This is the scenario:
PLANT..........MRP ELEMENT..........QUANTITY
2100.............Free Stock..................500UN
2100.............Reser..........................700UN
2100.............PurRqs........................200UN
And I the stock in the subcontractor for the same material is 300UN...
Why is MRP creating a PurRqs instead of a stock transfer from subcontractor.
The Scope of check is considering subcontractor stock...
Can you please help me?
Thanks in advance,
Adelmo Silva

Hi,
As i Know MRP will not Consider , the Stock Available at Subcontractor. During the Net requirement calculation it will consider teh stock available at Plant. That is why it would have created PR.
During material Availabilty check it will consider as per settings at Scope of the Check.
One more Option is MRP area for the subcontractor , for More details please refer below SAP help.

How to avoid purchase req and stock transport order to take part in MRP.

Please suggest how to avoid purchase req and stock transport order to take part in MRP.

SPRO >> MM >> CBP...
Under CBP check for the MRP settings where it is placed(check under master data settings)...and check for the indicator for PR's and STO's release orders under tab "Additional external req. in the reorder point planning"..

Is there any way plan safety stock at subcontractor in MRP ?

When the stock is at vendor ( material provided to vendor)
and if we wanted keep safety stock at vendor by entering safety qty in material master .After MRP run system ignores and planes addition requirements which is unwanted .Is there any way to fix for this issue ?

Define Safety Stock Availability
In this step, you define the percentage of the safety stock to be
     available for planning. This function is used to avoid a situation where
     orders proposals are created unnecessarily by the system to cover small
     shortage quantities.
In MRP, the system usually carries out the lot-size calculation for every
     shortage and creates an appropriate order proposal or - if already
     available - a firm receipt with a rescheduling proposal.
However, it does not always make sense for a new order proposal to be
     created for every small shortage. These order proposals must all be
     managed, converted, placed in stock and settled. If you want to save
     yourself this effort, you can make a portion of the safety stock
     available for planning. This has the following consequences:
     o An order proposal is not created until the stock level has fallen
        below the safety stock available for planning
     o If the shortage exceeds the portion of safety stock available for
        planning, then the system creates an order proposal in the planning
        run that covers this requirement and that also replenishes the safety
        stock.
o The portion of the safety stock available for planning can only be
        determined using the MRP group. Therefore, to determine that a certain
        percentage of the safety stock of a particular material is to be
        available for planning, this material must have been given the
        appropriate MRP group in the material master record.

SD Sales BOM and Stock Movement--Help please

Hi,
Scenario:
Client is dealing with Value packs. i.e. He creates a finish good by using 2 finish goods as components by creating Sales BOM.
Basic Requirement: To have component level treatment i.e. pricing delivery to be incorporated for components.
Item cat grp selected as LUMF for BOM parent Item in material master.
But the requirement is that stock movements should reflect for both parent as well as BOM materials upon PGI. Header stock is required to check the stock availibity.
By this approach no movements can be seen for parent which will give a wrong picture of the stock positions for Parent Material.
How this can be handled whereby we can see the stock movements for both Parent as well as components.
Please suggest

manOO

Hi,
Please Use Two Different Item Categories and Schedule Line Categories in this Scenarios and Please ensure that both should be relevant for Delivery.
Hope this sloves your Puprose and Please Reward If Really Helpful,

MRP and Inventory psoting list

Hello
2 questions
when we run MRP and ask to take into account the open purchase order we have recommendation without open purchase quantity taken into account and all purchase orders open are made in 2009
Could it be because of the new year ?
Second question in item screen we right click and have for each item the option to see posting list but since 1st of January teh posting list is without stock movements and does not show 2009 movements
Do you know if we can somehow define the dates where the posting list is shown ? They want to see obviously stocks movements from 2009
Thank you for your help in advance

If your financial year ends on the 31st of December then the short cut from Item Master Data will not show the previous financial years transactions. This is standard B1 functionality and you cannot define the dates.
You can run the full Stock Postings list from the Reports menu and this will give you all transactions.
In your MRP you must make sure that the From Date includes all the purchase orders in the previous year. For example if your oldest purchase order is 01.10.09 then your start date in horizon for MRP should be 01.10.09. This will put all your purchase orders in the Past Due section but will include them in all calculations for ordering stock.

Withdraw material from blocked stock at subcontractor

Hi
We have Third Party Order process where in materials are directly received to subcontracting vendor stock, when Goods receipt is posted in receving plant.
Due to some error, few stocks have been posted to Blocked stock at Subcontractor.
We would like to transfer the stock to unrestricted stock / scrap the stock from Subcontractor blocked stock.
Kindly let me know your opinion to make transfer posting.
Thanks and Regards
Rajkumar

Dear Yadav,
1.
Firste you wrote:
Due to some error, few stocks have been posted to Blocked stock at Subcontractor.
After that you stated this
It is about restricted stock at subcontractor.
2.
And materials are not subjected to batch management. So we cannot use MSC2N.
So, your first statement was that the material is in "blocked" stock, after that you stated that it is in restricted-use stock. But you also stated that the material is not batch managed.
"Restricted-use" is the status of the batch, so your material should be batch managed if its status is restricted-use.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/a5/63396b43a211d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
As I wrote you can use MB1A +553O if your material is in QI stock, if it is in restricted use you can't. If it is in restricted-use, please use MSC2N to change its status to unrestricted and after that comes MB1A + 551O.
What is the real stock type the stock you are speaking? Who "posted" it to that stock type and how?
Please give EXACT information.
Thanks,
Csaba

Transferring stock at subcontractor location to APO

Hi ,
We have a subcontracting scenario in R/3 . The component material is supplied to the subcontractor who manufactures the FG and sends it back to our plant . The component material is SNP planned. We want the stock of the component at subcontracting vendor(MatSub) also to be taken into consideration when the the component is planned in SNP. We have enabled the option stock at subcontractor location (forgot the exact description ) in R/3. But the stock is not getting transferred. we are currently running CCR in aPO to pust the subcontractor location stock to APO.
Am i missing some setting . Kindly help .

When the "vendor spec stock" option is enabled in the stock IM the stock at subcontractor location does get transferred to APO. In my test system i think there was some other data issue. But it worked in production

MRP and Materials provided to Vendor

Can you please help with the following:
SAP 4.7, where a material component is issued to a vendor as part of the subcontracting process, MRP will re-order additional stock, if levels drop below the re-order point, the system does not take materials provided to vendor into consideration. Is there a configuration setting that will take into consideration the quantity provided to the vendor as available stock when running MRP and therefore not generate an order until the material componenents are consumed and the goods receipt for the subcontract item carried out.
Thank you

Hi,
Please look at this SAP note: 170597

MRP and Availability check clarification

while browsing the forum, many experts here mentioned in old threads that MRP and availability check are two different (independent) concepts. I am really confused on this one. let me put my understanding here and plz experts help me if I am wrong with a figurative explanation, so that will be easy for understanding.
Assume this is the scenario as of today.
Plant stock for material x u2013 100
Reservations for material x u2013 70
Incoming receipts for material x u2013 50
So net stock = 100 + 50 -70 = 80
sales order arrived for material x u2013 100 and availability check is done. Results of availability check says 80 can be confirmed and 20 can be confirmed on later date.Transfer of requirement for quantity 20 is done to MRP. Mrp runs and creates planned order for 20.
In the availability check config ovz9 if I say donu2019t consider reservations, then when availability check is done for 100 quantities..system will confirm 100 because available stock according to system will be 100+50 = 150. So transfer or requirements are not sent to mrp.
So isnu2019t mrp run directly dependent on availability check?

925,
sales order arrived for material x u2013 100 and availability check is done. Results of availability check says 80 can be confirmed and 20 can be confirmed on later date. Transfer of requirement for quantity 20 is done to MRP
No. 100 pcs requirements are passed to MRP.
In the availability check config ovz9 if I say donu2019t consider reservations, then when availability check is done for 100 quantities..system will confirm 100 because available stock according to system will be 100+50 = 150. So transfer or requirements are not sent to MRP.
No, 100 pieces requirement are passed to MRP.
This behavior depends upon how your 'transfer of requirements' is configured, which is an SD setting. Normally, unless the fix date qty field is set in the sales order, the entire 100 pc requirement is passed to MRP in all cases. The assumption is that you have accepted the sales order and will 'some day' need to issue and sell the parts. You need to begin planning for this event now.
When MRP subsequently runs, it will net out the supply elements (stock and inbound reservations) and will from this calculation determine how much needs to be built. It then proposes a solution (planned order or purchase req).
ATP check seldom has much impact on MRP. You are correct in realizing that the ATP check must be consistent with MRP and with your chosen MRP strategies, in order to provide an end-to-end business process that is logical and meets all business requirements. However, in SAP these two functions are separate.

if you only have to display deliveries and stock transport orders you can take LIKP and LIPS for the deliveries and LTAK and LTAP for transport orders.
for all the other elements displayed by MD04 we would have to know about your setup: are you using dispo-areas (which would populate tables MDMA ...) so in that case please provide more information.

MB5L Report Discrepacy for Material and Stock Account Currency

I have found in the MB Report Discrepancy for Material and Stock Account Currency. Why is this happening? Why is there a variance between total price in materials and stock account? Anyone please help me. I'm abaper but now been pushed to do logistic. I need help for this issue.

Hi,
Here's some information from help. Variances can occur for the following reasons:
You have entered postings to the stock account manually.
The stock account includes not only stock postings, but also other postings. In this case, you should check the account determination in the Customizing for Valuation and Account Assignment. Make sure that the stock accounts are used solely for the transaction key BSX (stock postings).
Check Account Determination - OMWB
The account assignment for the stock accounts (transaction key BSX) was changed during productive operation; the respective stocks, however, were not deducted from the old account (movement type 562) and posted to the new one (movement type 561).

Please advise.

But, we would like to see similar details in the form of list of materials, with cumulative demand, cumulative OPEN PR Qty, Open PO Qty and Stock.
