Holiday Calender and factory calender

Hello Experts,
I have one scenario in my current implementation for one of the textile industry,
Here management and staff have total 5 public holidays in a year
But for workers its 2 public holidays in a year (in deewali -- for that 2 days only plant will be shut down).
How to do that in SAP?
Do I have to define 2 different holiday calendars?
Or something else?
Please let me know
Thanks and Regards
Jaydeep Jadhav

Dear Jadhav,
You should create
one Holiday Calendar for Corporate
one Holiday Calendar for Plant
I guess, once the plant is shutdown, even the managers will also get the holiday who are working in plant!!
ESG Grouping for MGRS, STAFF and Workers can be only One.
Holiday Calendar for Plant is different
thus, Managers in Plant will also get the holiday.
FACTORY CALENDAR is nothing to do with Employee Holidays... its only HOLIDAY CALENDAR which defined holidays to employees.

Difference between Holiday Calender and Factory Calender

What is the difference between Holiday Calender and Factory Calender.

Holiday Calendars is used in Time and Payroll. It is Holiday Calender which is used in defining Work Schedules Rules for different regions.
In simple, we can say... it is defined for Employees.
Factory Calendar in turn in used in Shift Planning concept, T&E Mng, in defining/planning for Units.
In simple, we can say... it is defined at Unit(Area) Level.
Eg: Employee can be on holiday based on holiday calendar assigned to his area. But Factory may be running/open on the same day.

Difference between holiday calendar and factory calendar

Hi SAP Gurus,
Can any one please let me know the difference between holiday calendar and factory calendar? Why and when we will use the factory calendar?
I appreciate your help.
Regards
Swathi

Hi,
Factory calendar needs to be maintained if you're using some logistics module that require factory calendar.
(Generally for running MRP - Material resource planning, etc. factory calendar maintenance is a must)
Holiday calendar should have been maintained before factory calendar and holiday cal is assigned to factory cal.
Each factory calendar should be assigned to a plant.

Both are Work Day calendars only. Both are the same form and back end tables.

How to remove the Holiday calender from factory Calender

Hi All Good Morning,
I want to remove the Holiday calendar from Factory calendar,
I know the two ways to remove
1.Through request remove the Holiday calendar at DEV system, then move to production system.
Is there any impact on other calendar related settings If we move the request from DEV--> PROD System.
(My doubt is only changed settings will change or any other settings also get impact)
2.Directly change the settings through client open.
In this option we are able get the change option in Factory calendar at DEV and QAS systems but we are not able to get change option at PROD system.
Can any body help on this,which is the better way.
Regards,
Murali.

Hi,
Many a times the holiday calendars are not in sync with DEV,QAS & PRD System,first check your system and see if they are in sync,
1-if they are in sync do changes in DEV and push request to PRD
2-if they are not in sync better do it on PRD Client,with help of your basis person,however before doing this kindly apprise your client of the same and then with his permission do it.
if HC are not in sync it may so happen that whatever is in DEV may get overwritten in QAS & PRD,hence check as suggested above and then do changes.
First remove(delete) HC from factory calendar and save

Changes in holiday and factory calender ?

Hi Gurus,
i have to delete a holiday from my holiday calendar ? i have some doubts about transporting the changes to quality and prd can anybody explain how we have to trans Port CALENDER

Hi Mahesh Kumar,
The Best Practice in mantaining Factory Calendar is to Transport the calendar from development to quality and to Production. However, it comes with it's own share of risks as it is a table transport.
To avoid those risks, it is suggested to block SCAL via SM01 for users and give access when the changes need to be moved. There is a process which needs to be set up which creates the necessary checks and balances involving the change.
Now, when you transport, you need to make sure that the changes you are moving are only the changes you did currently. Changes which have been done by someone else in the FC would remain with the object as FC object does not ask for transport when you are saving the changes.
So, in order to accomplish the above objective, you need to compare the Factory calendar , Holiday calendar tables. Compare the tables of Development & Production, download the tables to excel. Use some excel formulaes to match the entries of table in one worksheet with the entries in other worksheet. The conclusion of the comparison would be that only changes which you are doing currently are moving with the transport and no other changes are moving.
There are 3 important tables out of 13-14 which need to be compared: TFACS, TFACD & THOCI.

MRP and Factory calender question

Hi all,
When MRP runs to replenish stock from planned orders using production planning and/or Purchasing (Planned orders to Requisitions or production orders), is it replenishing stock based on lead times in a 20 day per month (excluding SAT and SUN and company holiday) format or full calendars days? This would also be an input to contracts/agreements etc.
Please advise.

Hi ,
While planning MRP takes inhouse production time for inhouse materials and is calculated in work days which referes to actual working days from factory calendor.
normally for purcahsed parts, planned delivery time ( PDT) is maintained in material master and this is actual calendor days. This does not consider the actual holidays from factory calendor.

Days since Sales Order creation excluding holidays in factory calender

Hello,
Can anyone pls tell me the logic to retrieve the Days since Sales Order creation excluding the holidays in Swedish factory calender.
Current logic which we have thought of is
(The first succesful output - Order creation date)
But the result should exclude the Swedish Factory calender holidays (our client is from Sweden)
Now we need to establish the logic of fitting the factory calender into this whole issue. As we have to provide the logic to our ABAP er .
Waiting to hear from u all.......

Your message is somewhat unclear to me.
When creating a sales order, a "Required Delivery Date" is needed.
This date is checked against the unloading calendar of the customer. If the system finds the requested delivery date = a non-working day of the customer calendar, it issues a warning (No goods accepted on DD.MM.YYYY. The next possible date is: DD.MM.YYYY (Message no. V1019). There does not seem to be any possibility of changing this warning to an error in the standard system; only possibility would be to modify the standard code.
If I have misterpreted your thread, then apologies, and feel free to elaborate on the issue some more.

for in house production i have to plan for 7 days a week. (Scheduling and Capacity Calculation)
i dont want to receive rawmaterils in weekends.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Dear
Based on your business requirement , you should have the following set up :
1.One Factory Calender with Work Days Monday-to-Friday Let say FC1 .This will be used on all the organisational level starting from Materials Planning to Sales .But will not be assinge to Capacity Requirement Planning Purpose or Any Production Activity in Work Centre .
2.You should have one more Factory Calander with work Days Monday to Monday ( 7 days week ) with some special rule like Plan Shutdown Days , Breakdown Maintainnece etc and this should be assinged to all the work centres -CR02-Capacity Tab -Capacity Header -Factory Calader ID -Let say it is FC2.
You need to ceate Calander in OP03/SCAL .It does nto have any transport and it will be a Cleinet level changes which requires proper approval .Please rememeber , you need to assing only FC1 to Plant assingement in OP03 where as FC2 will be asisnged only in Work Centre level .
Steps : Goto -OP03
1.Identify all those Public Holidays frist with Fixed or moveable as per business requirement
2.Goto Holiday Calander -Hit the pencil -Hit Create option -Enter ID , Description , Valid To/From Year ( shd be 20 yrs differnce )
Add all those holidays as per Public holidays as applicable in your business with proper valididty and finally SAVE
3.Goto Factory Calander -Hit the pencil -Hit Create option -Enter ID , Description , Valid To/From Year ( shd be 20 yrs differnce )
Asisng Hioliday Calander . In case of FC2-Work centre Calander , here you can hit the Special Rules .Include Special Activity like Plan Shut down of factory with Validity etc and SAVE .
4.Come back to OP03 main screen -Assing the factory Calender in plant .
5.Goto -CR02-Capacity -Capacity Header -Available Capacity Header -Factory Calander-Assing FC2
I do not think you should have planning calander seperately if you do not have any specific reason .
Hope it helps

Could someone let me know how to acheive this?

Schedule a process chain using factory calender

Hi All,
My requirement: the user wishes to see the report every month, 1 working day prior to the month end.
I am trying to do this usnig processing chain and factory calender to restrict it.
1. How can a factory calender be used ?
3. how do i give the offset of 1 working day prior to month end?
2. If you have any such experience please share.
Please help.
Rohit Kumar.

Hi,
In the start process open the start time parameters screen. Then click on the button '>>' next to 'at operation mode' button. In the following screen, give the factory calender. In the workday column give 2. Choose radio button 'end of month'. In the period field give the frequency of the loads, i guess it should be 1 for you as you want to load monthly. So the job runs on the day before the last working day.
regards,
Murali.
