Help on Availability Check.

Hi, I need help on Availability Check.
My requorement is when a particular item in sales order does not have enough stock, this should give error message and does not allow user to process further.
I want to do this for a particluar sales order type.
I have deactivated 'Forward scheduling" for order type but still 'Forward scheduling' is happening, giving schedule line based on future Material availability date.
Any suggestions how to solve this problem ?

Dear
It will Be depend up on Item Category of you Schedule Line Category.

Help regarding availability check

hi gurus,
SCENARIO 1:-
            my client is using IMS as a leagcy system , when the customer is giving the order ,the order is taken in IMS and an interface is used to do the availability check in r/3 and confirms the schedule line for the customer.After confirming the Scedule line for the customer ,the same details which is saved in IMS is Sent to R/3 for processing (executing sales order ) , now i dont want to do the availabilty check again in the R/3 for the same sales order..what r the settings i have to do ?
SCENARIO 2 :-
                if a sales order is executed in sap R/3 i dont want the availability check at all ? what r the settings to be done ?
NOTE :- IN both the scenarios the material is same and the plant is same.
             please help me in solving the problem

hi gurus,
           the orders r created and processed in the following way
    1) orders created in broad vision for web based orders -processed in sap-moved to IMS.
    2) orders created in sap-processed in sap-moved to IMS.
     assume that there r two customers A and B.
      a ) if the order from customer A is coming through Broad vision ie.internet an interface is used to check the availability check in r/3 and the customer is given the schedule line and the order is confirmed.after confirming the order to the customer the same order is passed to r/3 for processing of further functions like PGI etc etc , now the client dont want to do availability check as the order is already confirmed. what r the settings to be done ?
    b) if the order from the customer B is coming it is created in sap and processed in sap, here the client dont want to do the availability check at all.one thing to note here is the material,plant and sales document is the same in both the cases only the customers r different.
       please give me some solution,its urgent.

What is availability check concept how it is used in SAP

hi friends,
i don't know what is availity check,how is it used and how it should be configured,please help me.

Availability Check in Sales and Distribution Processing
There are three types of availability check:
     Check on the basis of the ATP quantities
     Check against product allocation
     Check against planning
In Customizing, you determine whether an availability check is to be carried out against the ATP quanitity or against planning. The check against product allocations is controlled in the material master and elsewhere in the system.
Check on the Basis of the ATP Quantities
The ATP quantity (ATP = Available To Promise) is calculated from the warehouse stock, the planned inward movements of stock (production orders, purchase orders, planned orders) and the planned outward movements of stock (sales orders, deliveries, reservations). This type of check is performed dynamically for each transaction, taking into account the relevant stock and planned goods movements with or without replenishment lead time. Planned independent requirements are not taken into account here.
Check against Product Allocation
Product allocation facilitates period-based distribution of products for certain customers or regions. As of Release 3.0F, you can carry out an availability check against product allocation. This ensures, for example, that when production is low, the first customer does not get the full amount, resulting in following sales orders not being confirmed or being confirmed far too late.
Check against planning
The check against planning is performed against independent requirements which are usually created for an anonymous market rather than being customer-specific (for example, in the strategy Planning without assembly, when production occurs only up to the stocking level). The planned independent requirements result from demand program planning and are used for planning expected sales quantities independent of orders
Controlling the Availability Check in Sales and Distribution Processing
You control the availability check using general and SD-specific control features.
General Control Features
The following control elements need to be maintained in Customizing and in the material master record:
     Strategy group
The allowed planning strategies (main strategy and further possible strategies) are combined in the strategy group. As of Release 3.0, the strategy group is specified in the material master record in the MRP 1 Screen. In Customizing, strategy groups are assigned, dependent on plant, to MRP groups. If the strategy group is missing in the material master record, it is determined on the basis of the MRP group, if it has been maintained.
Up to Release 3.0, the strategy group is determined on the basis of the MRP group
     MRP group
The MRP group combines materials from the point of view of material requirements planning. This enables you to control planning for these materials in a particular way using, for example, the strategy group, consumption mode and planning period. You enter the MRP group in the material master in the MRP 1 screen. The strategy group is determined from the MRP group.
     Planning Strategy
The planning strategy specifies the requirements type for planning and customer requirements. This represents the decisive control feature for the interaction between Production Planning and Sales and Distribution.
     MRP type and item category
If no requirements type is found using the planning strategy, the system tries to determine a corresponding requirements type on the basis of the MRP type and the item category.
Until 3.0C, determination of the requirements type via planning strategy has taken priority. This is not always the best option, however, as the following example will show. A requirements type is determined for a material, which causes availability to be checked against planning. In consignment stock processing, however, availability should be checked against stock. Until 3.0C the availability check had to be deactivated in these cases. As of Release 3.0C, you can determine how the requirements type is to be determined for each transaction by maintaining the Source field in Determination of requirement types using transaction in Customizing.
     Requirements type
The various requirements are identified by their requirements type. The requirements type refers to the requirements class and its control features.
     Requirements Class
The requirements class contains all control features for planning such as relevance for planning, requirements planning strategy and requirements consumption strategy. In addition, it is specified at a global level whether an availability check is to take place for the material in the sales and distribution documents on the basis of the ATP quantity (ATP = available to promise) and whether requirements are to be passed on. A finer degree of control can be obtained for sales documents using the schedule line category.
Control Features Specific to Sales and Distribution
The following SD-specific control features need to be maintained in Customizing:
     Checking group
The checking group controls whether the system is to create indivdual or collective requirements in sales and shipping processing. In addition, a material block for the availability check with transfer of requirements can be set here. The checking group can also be used to deactivate the availability check. This option was created especially for the assembly order so that when the bill of material is exploded in the assembly order, the individual components, if necessary, can be classified as non-critical parts as far as procurement is concerned.
The checking group specifies in combination with the checking rule the scope of the availability check. It is proposed in the material master record on the basis of the material type and the plant, and copied into the sales and distribution documents.
     Checking Rule
You use the checking rule to control the scope of the availability check for each transaction in sales and distribution. You also specify whether the check should be carried out including or excluding replenishment lead time. The individual checking rules define by transaction, which stock and inward and outward movement of goods should be taken into account for the availability check.
     Schedule line category
You can control with the schedule line category whether an availability check and transfer of requirements should be carried out in the sales documents. The possible settings for this at schedule line level are dependent on the settings in the requirements class which is determined from the requirements type of the material.
     Delivery item category
The delivery item category can be used to control whether an availability check takes place in deliveries.
Prerequisites
An availability check can only be carried out if the following prerequisites have been fulfilled:
     The control elements described above for the availability check must be maintained in Customizing for Sales and the relevant assignments made to the sales transactions
     The availability check must be switched on at requirements class level and - for the availability check in the sales documents - at schedule line category level
     A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found
     A plant must be defined. It can either be proposed from the customer or material master record or can be entered manually in the document.
     A checking group must be defined in the material master record on the Sales/plant data screen in the Availability check field
Timing of the Availability Check in Sales and Distribution Processing
When you create an order, the system determines the required materail availability date on the basis of the customers requested delivery date. On this date, you must begin picking, packing, labeling, and loading the goods. Therefore, this is the date of significance for requirements planning on which the availability should be checked.
The following data is required for determining this date:
     Route from the shipping point to the ship-to party location
     Shipping point from which the goods are issued
     Loading group from the material master record
     Weight group determined from the order using the order quantity
Scheduling
This data, which you have already entered in the system, means that scheduling can occur automatically. Since scheduling is carried out backwards from the requested delivery date, it is also called backward scheduling. If backward scheduling determines that the preparation for the shipping activities should have been started already to meet the customer's requested delivery date, the system then starts forward scheduling automatically from the current date.
Scope of the Availability Check in Sales and Distribution Processing
The following elements can be included in the availability check:
     Stock
o     safety stock
o     stock in transfer
o     quality inspection
o     blocked stock
     Inward/Outward movement of goods
o     purchase orders
o     purchase requisitions
o     planned orders
o     production orders
o     reservations
o     dependent reservations
o     dependent requirements
o     sales requirements
o     delivery requirements
Requirements in sales and distribution (sales requirements and delivery requirements) result from all transactions which forward a requirement to Materials Management (MM) or to Production Planning (PP). For example, this could include sales orders or deliveries and quotations as well. Sales and distribution requirements reduce existing stock or inward movements of stock on the material availability date to ensure that other outward movement of stock elements cannot access the quantity reserved in this way.
Requirements relevant for Sales and distribution are created in Sales and Distribution, whereas other elements in this list are created in Materials Management or in Production Planning.
Defining the Elements to be Included in Check
A checking rule is assigned to each transaction. This rule in combination with the checking group controls the scope of the availability check. You can use the checking rules in Customizing for Sales to specify for the various transactions which of the elements listed above should be included in the availability check.
For trading goods it does not make sense to include planned or production orders, for example, in the availability check. However, for products manufactured by your company these orders should be included in the check.
For transactions such as make-to-order production, consignment or returnable packaging processing that create special stock, the availability check is performed against special stock.
If it is defined by the checking rules that both sales and delivery requirements are taken into account in the availability check in sales documents but only delivery requirements are taken into account in the availability check in deliveries, there is a danger that quantities reserved in the sales documents are considered to be available by the availability check in the deliveries. This can lead to sales documents becoming backlogged.
Reactions to the Availability Check in Sales Documents
If the goods ordered by the customer are not available on the requested date, the system branches automatically during sales document processing to a further screen where delivery proposals are offered for selection. The system determines these proposals on the basis of the availability situation. This screen also provides you with information on the scope of the check, the current ATP quantity, and the availability situation across all plants.
Availability Control
On the Availability Control screen, you can choose between the following delivery proposals:
     One-time delivery on the requested delivery date
In this section, the system checks whether the requested delivery date can be kept to. If stock of the material is available to make a delivery on the requested delivery date, the stock quantity is confirmed here. If there is no stock available, confirmed quantity zero is displayed.
To copy this data into the sales document, select Edit One-time delivery.
     Complete delivery
In this section, the system checks whether there will be sufficient stock for complete delivery at a later date:
o     If there is sufficient stock available at a later date to cover the required quantity in the sales document, the system proposes the date here.
o     If the system determines that complete delivery cannot be made at a later date, no date is proposed in this section.
When availability is checked including replenishment lead time, the date which is proposed in this section is the date on which the replenishment lead time period ends if the stock before the end of replenishment lead time does not cover the order quantity.
When availability is checked excluding replenishment lead time, the system bases its calculations on the stock and the planned inward movements of stock.
To copy this data into the sales document, select Edit Complete delivery
     Delivery proposal
In this section, the system checks whether and for which dates partial deliveries can be made. Partial deliveries are displayed for different dates. These dates are based on the planned inward and outward movements of stock.
During an availability check which takes replenishment lead time into account, the date on which replenishment lead time ends is displayed if insufficient stock means that no partial deliveries can be made before replenishment lead time ends.
During an availability check which does not take replenishment lead time into account, the system displays the dates on which partial deliveries can be made with the available stock.
To copy this proposal into the sales document, select Edit Delivery proposal
The dates displayed in the sections complete delivery and delivery proposal are determined from the material availability date using forward scheduling and represent actual delivery dates.
Availability Across Plants
You can display the availability situation in the various plants for which a material is maintained. To do this, proceed as follows:
1.     Select Goto Other plants on the availability control screen.
The dialog box Plant Selection appears. All plants for which the material is maintained are displayed.
2.     Mark the plants in which you want to check availability and select Check plants.
You reach the Availability Check: Overview screen. The requirements quantity and the quantity which could be confirmed as well as some additional information is displayed in a separate line for each plant you selected.
3.     If you require detailed information on the availability check for a particular line, select the relevant line and select Edit Check availability.
You reach the Date proposals dialog box where the detailed data is displayed.
4.     You can select a plant with sufficient quantity for confirmation to be copied automatically into the Overview screen. Select the appropriate line and select Edit Copy plant.
Using the user exit USEREXIT_PLANT_SELECTION in the Include LV03VFZZ you can make a preselection of the allowed plants. If you use this option, the Plant selection dialog box does not appear and the availability check is performed immediately for the allowed plants. If, on the basis of information resulting from the availability check, you want to deliver from a plant other than the one specified in the item, you must at present enter this plant manually in the item. In a later release, however, you will be able to select the plant directly from the list of plants.
Displaying the ATP Quantities
If you want to display the current ATP situation on the availability control screen, select Goto Availability overview.
Displaying the Scope of the Check
If you want to display the scope of the check (stock and inward/outward movements of goods taken into account during the availability check) from the availability control screen, select Goto Scope of check.
Delivery Agreements in the Customer Master Record
A customer may react in different ways to the fact that a complete delivery can not be provided for the required delivery date. You can define in the customer master record, the way a customer reacts to the inability to meet the requirements represented by the key data.
     The customer wants complete delivery of all items by the requested delivery date or at a later date.
The complete delivery indicator is copied into the sales document from the customer master record. To find it, select Header Business data on an overview screen or a header screen. You find the indicator in the Shipping section.
If the complete delivery indicator is set in the sales document, the individual items are automatically correlated when the document is saved if the schedule lines exist for various dates (that is, a delivery group is automatically created for the sales document items and the latest delivery date within this group becomes the group delivery date). For further information on delivery groups, see Combining Sales Document Items for Delivery.
     The customer only allows a certain number of partial deliveries for each item.
The partial delivery indicator and the number of partial deliveries are copied into the sales document item from the customer master record. To find the indicators:
1.     Go to the Business Data screen for this item.
2.     Select Edit Shipping details.
The indicators are found in the Shipping section.
Performing the Availability Check Again
Usually, an availability check is only performed when a sales document is created. If quantities or dates are changed in the document and availability needs to be checked again, the check is performed again automatically . However, you can also initiate an availability check manually.
Automatic Checks
In the following situations, a new availability check is automatically carried out:
     Quantity change
     Date change (requested delivery date, material availability date)
     Change to the fixed data
     After new delivery scheduling (for example, the route or shipping point has been changed)
     Change of plant
     Change of storage location or batch
     Removal of blocks which affect requirements
     Removal of reasons for rejection
Initiating a Check Manually
In the sales document, you can initiate a new availability check manually. If you want to perform an availability check for all items in a sales document, select Sales document Check availability on the header screen. If you want to check availability for an individual item, select Edit Item availability.
Fixing Quantities and Dates in Sales Documents
If the availability check for an item determines that the item cannot be delivered fully on the requested delivery date, and, as a result one or more schedule lines have to be created for later delivery dates, the customer can decide whether to accept these delivery dates and quantities.
You can record the customer's decision either by setting an indicator in the Fixed date and qty field or by leaving this field blank. The field is displayed both on the schedule line overview screen and on the availability screen.
Customer Accepts the Schedule Line Proposal
If the customer accepts the schedule lines which are proposed by the system, mark the Fixed date and qty field. The system then transfers the requirements for the schedule lines to material requirements planning.
Customer Requires Goods Earlier
If the customer requires the goods earlier than the date that the system can confirm after the availability check, leave the Fixed date and qty field blank. The system then only passes on the requirements for the requested delivery date and does not take the quantities and dates confirmed by the system after the availability check into account. In this case, it is assumed that the requested delivery date can be kept to because, for example, additional production capacity may become free. The system only confirms the sales order once the entire order quantity can be delivered on the requested delivery date. In the subsequent delivery processing, the sales order is only considered to be completed when the entire order quantity has been delivered or when all partial delivery agreements have been fulfilled.
A fixed item is considered to be completed once the entire confirmed quantity (which can be smaller than the originally requested order quantity)has been delivered. Therefore, it does not make sense to fix the confirmed quantity to 0 as the item is considered to be completed from the start.
During rescheduling, the fixed quantities and dates are no longer taken into account.
Blocking Confirmation of Quantities in Sales Documents
In Customizing, using Block transfer of requirements by delivery block, you can specify that certain delivery blocks in the sales document header also block the confirmation of order quantities.
If you enter such a delivery block in a sales order header, the system confirms the available quantity to show you the delivery options. If you save the document, however, the confirmed quantities are not saved. Your company could block confirmation for a customer if this customer's credit worthiness was questionable. The sales order in this case is not only classed as unconfirmed, it is also blocked for delivery.
Thus, no stock is reserved. The stock is still available for other customers. Although the order quantities are not confirmed, the system still transfers the requirements to material requirements planning. It is assumed that the delivery block will be removed at some point. The automatic transfer of requirements means that the order quantity can be confirmed at a later point in time

Availability check purpose

I want to know the purpose of availability check in material master.(daily requirements,individual requirements etc) .
how does it effect in planning.
which values to be selected in availability check.
Edited by: Csaba Szommer on Jan 6, 2012 8:26 AM

Hi,
u could search threads available on this topics,
Pl. refer following excerts from SAP help.
Availability Check
Use
During sales order processing, the availability check enables you to tell the customer if the product can be delivered on time. You can control how the availability check is carried out by setting the Availability check field in the material master.
Integration
There are two availability check methods:
u2022     Check against planned independent requirements
o     Used with, for example, strategy 50, 60, 52, 63, 74. (All other strategies use ATP check.)
o     Only planned independent requirements are taken into account
o     No MRP elements (for example, stock) are taken into account
o     No requirement to customize the checking rule
o     The field Availability check is only used to determine the requirements passing (daily or individual requirements)
u2022     Available-to-Promise (ATP) check
o     Check is performed against stock and all other MRP elements (for example, stock, production orders, sales orders, requirements, schedule lines)
o     Option to check against a replenishement lead time (RLT).
o     Very accurate
o     Always performed when production orders are processed.
Activities
Transferring Requirements from Sales Orders
The following applies to both checking methods:
In the standard system, checking group 01 is set up so that daily requirements are passed on to production. This means that there is only one line visible in the stock/requirements list (as shown above) that contains the cumulated quantity for one day, rather than the individual sales orders. The sales order number does not display on the Order line in the stock requirements list.
If you want to see individual requirements, you can create a new checking group in Customizing for Sales and Distribution (choose Basic Functions  Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements  Availability Check  Availability Check with ATP logic or against planning  Define checking group) and a new checking rule that combines the new groups with A.
Set up the ATP Checking Rule for Sales Order Processing
The following applies only to the ATP checking method:
u2022     You can define how the system checks availability of components in production orders in Customizing for Sales and Distribution. Choose Basic Functions  Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements  Availability Check  Availability Check with ATP logic or against planning  Carry out control for availability check.
AV (= Checking group for availability check)     Description     ChR (= Checking rule for availability check)     RLT
01     Daily requirements     A     'Blank' (= check with replenishment lead time)
02     Individual requirements     A      'X' (= check without replenishment lead time)
u2022     The checking rule in the sales order is A in make-to-stock strategies and AE for make-to-order strategies. The checking rules for 01/AE and 02/AE are the same in the standard system.
u2022     You can define your own checking rule for production orders in Customizing. In the standard system,the checking rule for production orders is PP.
Set up the ATP Checking Rule for Production Order Processing
The following applies only to the ATP checking method:
u2022     Maintain the Availability check field on the MRP screen of the material master. In the IMG for Production, choose Production Orders  Operations  Availability check  Define checking group.
u2022     Maintain the checking rule. In the IMG for Production, choose Production Orders  Operations  Availability check  Define checking rule. The checking rule is assigned to the order type and transaction (create/release). In Customizing, choose Production Orders  Operations  Availability check  Define checking control.
u2022     Define the scope of the check. In the IMG for Production, choose Production Orders  Operations  Availability check  Define scope of check.
u2022     Maintain the checking control. In the IMG, choose Production  Production Orders  Operations  Availability check  Define checking control to define a plant and production order type combination and when check availability can be performed, during order creation or during order release.

Availability check issue Please help

Hey Gurus,
We created a bunch of sales order with material 8000379 with the availabilty check in the material master as "02". We decided the change this to "KP" to no check and now we are not seeing a confirmation line for delivery in the sales order unless we delete the line item in the sales order and recreate. This is causing us a massive problem. We have almost 1000 sales order with this material that we woudl need to change. Is there anyway to reread the master data for this material?
Thing to note, this material is a subcontracted material and it has a PO against it so we can't just delete the line item and recreate it on the sales order. Is there a better solution than deleting the line item? We are desparate for a solution.
Sincerely,
Nina

Creation of Sale Order for configurable material with availability check.

Hi,
We have a scenario in which the material is configurable. The configurable material (X) has few variants (Ex: X1, X2, X3, X4, X5). While booking the sale order, we use the material number (X).
Further, the material planning is done for the variants X1, X2, X3, X4, X5. The standard variants are planned for production in advance.
1.     While booking the sale order, we want the availability check of the stock (type matching to happen). What needs to be done in configuration?
2.     While booking the sale order, there is a possibility that the configuration selected will not match with any of the standard variants due to some additional requirements of the optional features, in such cases how to link the standard variants to the sale order & create requirement for additional requirements.
Regards,
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
           1.Create material master for configurable material and variants in mm01.
           2.Maintain BOM for the configurable material in CS01
           3. Configur the variant configuration steps
              a. Create charecteristics T.code CT04
              b. Create values and assign classes
              c. assign the values to charecteristics
              d . Maitain dependence T.code CU01
              e.create configuration profile t.code CU41
              f.stimulate the configuration profile.
4. Do the availability check configuration through this path
IMG --> Sales and distribution > Basic functions ,> Availabilty check and Transfer of requirements.
5. Maintain the Availbility check field and MRP views in the material masters other wise you sit with PP people and do that
I hope it will help you

Availability Check not working for Item Cat TANN or YG05 in Btch Split

Currently working on implementing Automatic Batch Determination (BD) project and one fine piece is holding up the implementation (make or break for project).
In our QA System:
- In inventory we have a quantity of 2 for a material: 1 in one batch and 1 in another batch.
- Create an order with 2 line items with the same material number for a quantity of 1 each. Line item category is TANN
- When you generate the delivery the batch determination causes the items to split (even though you have a quantity of 1 in the line item).
- When you go into the delivery and open up the 1st line item and look at the 900001 line, BD chooses the 1st batch for a quantity of 1. Line item category is YG05.
- When you open up the 2nd line item and look at the 900002 line, BD chooses the 1st batch again, NOT the 2nd batch which it should.
If I change the line item category on the Sales Order to TAN and generate the delivery, BD correctly assigns the 1st batch to the 900001 line item and the 2nd batch to the 900002 line item. Which is correct.
Now for the strange part. The TANN item category and BD works find in our DEV Sandbox, but NOT in our QAS system.
I have spent two days now trying to find out where Availability Check is assigned specifically to Item Categories and any differences between our DEV Sandbox and our QA systems to no avail.
Our customers need the ability to be able to put the same material number on multiple lines of a sales order due to special pricing per customer within an order.
Can anyone direct me to some configuration or transaction that controls Availability Checking by Item Category. I have checked the 0VLP transaction and they are identical between our DEV and QA system for the TANN and YG05 categories.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

In VOV6 the 'CP' Schedule Line Cat. has the Availability flag check. There were a few areas where I found an "Availability" flag and made sure there were all set.
But, I did finally find out what the error was:
Logistics Exec -> Shipping -> Basic Shipping Functions -> Avail Check and Transfer of Requirements -> Transfer of Requirements -> Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transactions
There are entries by Item Category. For
I/C = TANN
MRP type = PD
the Requirement Type was missing (if you look at the entry for TAN/PD you see an 11 in the RqTy column).
So I entered a 11 (Delivery Requirement) into the field and now the Availability Check works and I am getting the correct Batches and quantities during Batch Determination.
There is no entry for the YG05 batch split, so I guess the system just uses the Item Category of the main line item.
Thanks for the responses. Sorry to bother you I should have figured this out earlier.
Scott.

When I try to update my phone to ios 7 it says i need to update my itunes to 11.0.5, when i check my current version in help menu under check for updates it says I have the current 11.0.5 version.

When I try to update my phone to ios 7 it says i need to update my itunes to 11.0.5, when i check my current version in help menu under check for updates it says I have the current 11.0.5 version. Even the downloader for the update doesnt show that i need to update.Help plzz????

There is some kind of error. The new version of iTunes is 11.1, which although is not available via updates, it can be downloaded from the Apple website here:

After updating iTunes to the newest version you should be able to update your iOS
EDIT: I just did that and it works

Longer time for Material Availability check while creation of prd order.

Hi guys,
I am facing a weird problem while creating production orders thru CO01.
I enter the component and plant and I am also using the forward scheduling option.
for some reason, SAP is taking a long time for material availability check when I hit the release button.
Sometimes its taking more than an hour. Its happening with few specific BOM's, and I have checked the master data but I could hardly find a problem in master data.
Can someone suggest me some tips ??
Thanks & Regards,
Sashivardhan

Hi,
Please check the Availability check control maintained for Components it should be 01 or 02. Also check the issue storage location maintained or not. You can maintain issue storage location in BOM in Status/lng text tab in Production Storage Location.
Hope this will help.

Navin

Reserve stock in availability check

Dear Gurus
I have one requirement. I have searched forum but I didn't get anything which helps me.
I have a material A with 5 quantity in storage location 1064. When I create sale order of this material with 3 quantity system reserves this stock against this sale order.It will remain reserve until i reject this order. Thee are many open sale orders against which stock is reserved. I have to find out orders with VA05 and reject them. If i create new order of same material with 3 quantity system will only confirm 2.
My requirement is that when i press availability check button system should only check available stock, no stock reserve. When i create delivery system should copy available stock. In short there must be only availability check, No stock reservation.

Dear moazzamjii
My requirement is that when i press availability check button system should only check available stock, no stock reserve.
If this is your requirement you go to OVZ9 in that just flag the iinclude sales requirements in the in/out movements.
Check and revert
Thanks&Regards

Availability check Problem in sales order according MRP sterategy

hi,
We are using strategy 56 for configurable final product and strategy 65
for its variants.Requirement type is "ELV V". According this requirement type,
it is not possible to confirm availability check and then deliver the
sales order. We tried to mark availability check for requirement type ELV V in OVZG Tcode, but the
following error came up: "Check against plan material can only be carried
out w/o avail.check". Is there any setting to handle this problem to work
with strategies 56 and 65? Is it some configuration that we forgot?
Thanks,

My problem is that, To make assembly of material A we have two component material B and C.
in the sales order of material A, system should check availability of component material B and C.

Availability check problem in sales order

Hi All,
We have one material which is assembled by using two components (BOM).
During avaiability check in sales order system should check components stock available in Stores.
· If there is sufficient stock of the component materials is available, the availability check should report a fixed number of days to make assembly,
· If there is insufficient stock of the component materials, the availability check should report the longest lead time for the material which is short + fixed number of days to assembly.
Please help

Change availability check group to 02 from 01 in scheduling agreement

Hi All,
I have created a Scheduling agreement for a material which is having an availability check of 01(Daily requirement), because of that my order number is not reflecting in MDO4. Now i have changed the availability check for that material to 02(individual requirement). Could you please suggest me how to get the order number in MD04 now? Finally we have to update availability check group as 02 in scheduling agreement also.
Do we have any program or SAP note which will help us to resolve this issue?
Warm Regards
Lakshmikanth

Hi
Any corrections made in masters after a document is created will not update the already created documents (99 %in SAP)
It will apply for new documents only
You have made the changes in material master only changing availability check from 01 to 02
You need to create a fresh order and see
