How plant average stock is calculated in LTP

Hi
Can anybody tell me how system calculates plant average stock for a material in Long Term Planning. I tried to crack the formula behind the calculation,but no clue on that.

To calculate the average stock pl do the following
MS29...enter the scenario plant and MRP controller and execute with test mode with say 3 months say from 101007 to 310307
Take a material number from there
go to MB5b
execute the report for the material and plant...take the opening stock for each month and average it..
opening stock as on 010107 = X1
opening stock as on 010207 = X2
opening stock as on 010207 = X3
then the average stock = (X1X2X3)/3
this is equal to what you get in MS29

MC44 average stock

Hello gurus,
Is there anybody who can tell me the formula of AVERAGE STOCK?
I created the material 5000333.
Here is the Material document list (MB51)
2201 561 4900009058    1 2010.12.14                 1 ROL           1,000
2201 561 4900009059    1 2010.12.13                 1 ROL           1,000
2201 561 4900009060    1 2010.12.12                 1 ROL           1,000
If I report MC44 with Period of inventory turnover from 2010.12.12 to 2010.12.14
AVERAGE STOCK = 2 (initial stock-12.12, 1 ROL + last stock - 12.14, 3 ROL) / 2
However if I set the period of inventory turnover from 2010.12.12 to 2010.12.15
AVERAGE STOCK = 2.250
How it is calculated?
Please help me.
Best regards,
Josh

Thank you for the reply.
I already read this article.
Average stock :
The average stock is calculated by adding the beginning stock and the ending stock in the period to analyze and dividing by two.
However I think there may be another factors like date in this formula, because the average stock is changing according to the date.
As I already mentioned, I only made the movement type 561 on 12, 13, 14 December. Only three times.
Here is the MB51 list again about this material.
Plant MVT Document       Date                           Qty
2201 561 4900009058    2010.12.14                 1 ROL
2201 561 4900009059    2010.12.13                 1 ROL
2201 561 4900009060    2010.12.12                 1 ROL
If I run MC44 with the period from 13th to 15th, the average stock = 2.667
However, If I change the period from 13th to 16 th, the average stock = 2.750
According to the formula in the sap document, from 13th to 15th, average stock should be 2.5.   --> (2+3)/2

Calculating Average stock for the given period

Hi,
I need to calculate the average stock based on given date range given by user.
Total stock is also calculating in report only. So it wil get divide by differnce between the date range.
How can we do that?

Using formula variable you can find difference between 2 dates .
-create two formula variables for 2 dates .
-create a formula to differenciate them
-create formula variable and divide that by stock it will give the average stock ..
some example ..

How to get average stock in the inventory management cube?

Dear all,
I need to get average stock for a month.
For example: stock on May 1st is 30kg, stock on May 2nd is 20kg,etc. I need to add these everyday stock together and divided by the days of the month.
Now I have a non-cumulative key figure with inflow and outflow for stock. Is any way I can do this without bringing very bad performance?

How to tranfor stock from 1200 to 1300 plant,

How to tranfor stock from 1200 to 1300 plant, we will shift the production line and materials to 1300 plant.furtherly we wont produce any material in plant 1200 so how can tranfer the stock in SAP ?

Hi ,
Use T code MIGO or MB1B for transfer from on plant to other .
Use the movement type 301 for 1 step transfer .
Use movement type 303 followed by 305 for 2 step transfer .
Consult your MM counter part for the same as you wont be having the requisite authorization i guess.

How to exclude stock of a particular storage type from collective availabil

How to exclude stock of a particular storage type from collective availability check in MDVP.

you can set the storage location as 'Storage location stock excluded from MRP' value '1' in the field
Sloc MRP indicator , in MRP view $ when you enter a storage location accessing the material master.
Thsi is the only way to exclude the storage location, you have to do it per each material and also it is excluded from the MRP.
With this option the stock is not considered in ATP.
IF you need the storage location in the MRP, then you should consider the use of MRP Areas.
With the MRP Areas you define which plants/storage locations belong to each MRP area and the ATP is performed for eah area with the stocks that exist in each of them.
Please if the issue is solved set the thread as answered and provide the points to the useful replies.
thanks for your cooperation

Production in Aternative Plant with stock transfer

Hello,
For our MTO process we have prototyped several scenarios for production of configurable materials over more plants, all based on special procurement keys.
Scenario 1: procured from other plant with stock transfer (41)
Scenario 2: production in alternative plant (80)
With respect to the configuration process and ATP, scenario 2 has our preference. There is one discrepancy, since the plants are far away from each other we need a stock transfer (and paperwork for transportation) between the 2 plants.
However a feature of production in an alternative plant is that the GR of the semi-finished good is directly in the planning plant.
Of course we can do a transfer order w/o reference for the semi-finished good from plant A to plant B but nothing is triggering this process and for us no option.
Any idea how to get such process nicely streamlined? Is there a usable workaround?
Thanks, Hans
(note: If no clues, I intend to bring it in as a request for SAP customer influence)

Thanks Vaibhav,
All required CTP settings maintained and ther is PDS in alternative production plant too. The reason being when I remove special proc key APO CTP created planned order for the deficit qty.
Did you mean to say Original plant means planning plant? but there proc type has to be E with special proc as "80" .SPRO setting is maintained.(maintained Location Determnation settings as you mentioned) I have already tried "X"
but did not work..

How to organise stock transfer in scm-erp

Hello all!
There is a plant. there are many stocks inside plant. we use sap erp .we are plannig integrate sap scm. i don't know how to organise stock transfer between stock. what is better: using sto converted from stock tranfer requisition or using reservations created from planning in apo. maybe i am wrong..

Hi Mildar,
You can integrate sto between erp and scm via coreinterface
through creating integration models and get it planned via APO
in deployment
In deployment run of APO, using the stocks, system converts
the stock transfer requisitions to stock transfer orders and
push it to SAP R/3 system which you can use it for
executing purpose.

How is GC cpu utilization % calculated?

I am trying to find a way to capture the problem where a user process eats up a ton of cpu for over 30 minutes. I thought that I could possibly use the cpu utilization metric.
In testing it, I reset the values to warning and critical thresholds to 0 and 5% respectively to see what would happen. I was emailed with the expected critical alert. In looking at the top sessions on the server, I noticed that 1 session was eating up 100% of one cpu (which I want to know about) but the alert email said that 45% was utilized which I noticed was about what the user load is on the server.
Initially, I had the warning and critical threshold set to 85 and 95% respectively but did not get any warning about a user process that was taking up 100% cpu for > 5 minutes (in which the 5 minute collect times were set to once).
My questions are
1) How do I capture a single process eating up > 90% cpu in a multi-cpu environment
2) Is the cpu utilization % capturing the Average Load of the cpus on the server and alerting when it's above the critical threshold?
3) How is the cpu utilization % calculated?
Help would be appreciated.

The cpu load is determined by running the Grid program nmupm found in $AGENT_HOME/bin
The output is like:
dbc12ykf: PDBGRP> nmupm osCpuUsage
em_result=1|206331806.000000|201540370.000000|102524043.000000|958620752.000000
em_result=2|212731589.000000|201203614.000000|67775500.000000|948506267.000000
em_result=3|212402913.000000|230642957.000000|76833167.000000|917779040.000000
em_result=4|242543014.000000|367865067.000000|81554006.000000|791426607.000000
You will get a line for each cpu.
YOu'll need a bit of reverse engineering to figure out the columns - I think they are user, system, idle , 5min avg - Multiplied by 10000 ?
Now to capture a big one - I think you will need a user defined metric. Just write a simple shell script to run the above command, and evaluate the numbers coming thru.

If physicaly checked the stock found zero. how to enter stock zero in systm

if physicaly checked the stock found zero. how to enter stock zero in system
thanx

Hi
You can follow the following physical Inventory transaction for updating ZERO stock in the system.
Please go with following transaction
MI01>Create physical inventory document>Enter Document Date>Planned count date>Plant Code>Storage Location>Click on Enter button>you will get the separate screen>Enter material code>and click on SAVE button (Ctrl+S)>you will get Physical inventory document number. (MI02-Use for delete)
(After getting Physical inventory document number you go with MIO4)
MI04>click on enter button>you will get "Enter inventory count screen>Enter Phys. inventory doc.no>Fiscal year>Count date>click on enter button>you will get separate screen>Enter physical qty>and click on save button ((Ctrl+S)>you will get massage from the SAPu201D Count entered for phys. inv. doc. 100000112"
(After completed above transaction you please go with MI07)
MI07>you will get Post inv.differences: initial screen>Enter Phys. inventory doc.> Fiscal year> Posting date>click on enter button>you will get separate screen with deference qty>click save button (Ctrl+S)> you will get document number generated from the system (Diffs in phys. inv. doc. 100000112 posted with m. doc. 4900001246)
Physical Inventory:
Physical Inventory is a business process in which physical stock is matched with book (system) stock. It is legal requirement to carry out physical inventory at least once in a year.
Physical inventory can be carried out both for a companyu2019s own stock (Unrestricted, Quality, Blocked Stock) and for special stocks (Customer Consignment stock, Vendor consignment stock from vendor, Returnable packaging). This inventory is carried out saperately for both type of stocks.
Physical Inventory Processes:
Several inventory processes available for physical inventory which includes as follow:
1. Periodic Physical Inventory
o All stocks of the company are physically counted on the balance sheet key date
o Every material must be counted
o Entire warehouse must be blocked for material movements during count.
2. Continuous Physical Inventory
o Stocks are counted continuously during the entire fiscal year.
o It is important to ensure that every material is physically counted at least once during the year.
3. Cycle Counting
o In this method of physical inventory, inventory is counted at regular intervals within a fiscal year.
o These intervals (or cycles) depend on the cycle counting indicator set for the material in Material Master record as CC indicator in plant view data.
o With this Cycle Counting Method of Physical Inventory allows fast-moving items to be counted more frequently than slow-moving items.
4. Inventory Sampling
o Randomly selected stocks of the company are physically counted on the balance sheet key date.
o If found not much variance between the counted stock and the book book stock, it is presumed that the book inventory balances for the other stocks are correct.
Physical Inventory Process Cycle Flow
1. Creation of physical inventory document
- Physical inventory document(s) is created individually or using the batch program, click for more information
- The transaction codes for creation physical inventory are as follow
Individual Inventory documentation creation
MI01 - Individual physical inventory creation
MIS1 - Inventory Sampling document creation
MICN - Cycle count inventory document creation
Collective Inventory document creation
MI31 - Own stock without special stock
MIK1 - Vendor consignment
MIQ1 - Project stock
MIM1 - Returnable Transpiration material
MIW1 - Customer Consignment stock
MIV1 - Returnable material with customer
MIO1 - Material provided to Vendor (Subcontracting material)
2. Print physical inventory document
- Physical Inventory document can be printed based on the physical inventory document status and or item status
- Transaction code MI21 is used to print the inventory document where print default value can be populated
3. Count the physical stock
- Based on the inventory document printout, the warehouse person will check the stock of material physically and note that on print out. This is completely physical process.
4. Enter count in system
- On completion of physical count, the count result is needs to be entered in the system. This can be with reference (using Tcode MI04) or without reference (using Tcode MI04) to the physical inventory document.
- If count quantity for that material is ZERO then select ZC (zero count) column instead of putting 0 in qty field. If 0 is used for zero count then systm will consider that as "not counted"
5. Analyze difference
- Once count is posted in the system, difference analysis can be carried out using transaction MI20
- The output gives information based on the input criteria i.e. physical inventory document, plant, material etc.
- The output gives information about the book quantity, Counted quantity, difference in quantity and value.
- From this output list, you can carry out further process ie initiate recount, change count quantity, post difference
6. Initiate recount and follow the steps 3,4,5
- If found unacceptable difference, recount is initiated using directly from difference analysis list (transaction code MI20) or using transaction code MI11.
- New inventory document will be created for selected items or for entire document
- The original document items will be deactivated once recount is initiated so original document will not be available for further process.
- On initiating recount, you need to process same as for new count document.
7. Post the difference
- Several options are available for posting difference
- Post difference after count is posted using transaction code MI07
- Posting the count and inventory differences using transaction code MI08, here you have created physical inventory but not counted so with this you can count and post difference in sinle step.
- Entering the count without a document reference using trasnaction code MI10, with this you can create inventory document, enter the count and post difference in single step.
some more points for posting difference
- Posting period must be open to post inventory difference.
- The fiscal year is set by specifying a planned count date when creating a physical inventory document.
- Tolerence to crear difference per user group can be set in customization.
- The system will generate material document for the difference qty and post the value to appropriate account (for valuated stock)
- The movement type in material document will be 701 or 702 based on gain or loss of material.
Serial Numbers in Physical Inventory
If material is managed with serial number then it is possible to carry out physical inventory for material with serial number. There are some pre-requisite before you carry out physical inventory for serialized materials.
- Serial number profile must be maintained in the material master.
- the serialization procedure MMSL (maintaining goods receipt and goods issue documents) has to be assigned to serial number profile.
- The stock check indicator in the serial number profile should be configured.
- Maintain basic settings for the serial numbers in customization for Serial Number Profile.
- Configure serial number management for physical inventory in the Settings for Physical Inventory step in Customizing for Inventory Management.
Blocked Stock Returns are the stock which is return stock from Customer or the stock which can be return back to vendor. To restrict the usage of this stock mostly business do transfer posting for this mateial as BLOCKED stock
Thanks & Rgds,
Rajesh

How to transfer stock

how to transfor stock from one one plant to other plant

Dear,
You can perform this in two different ways,
The question should be,is the material transferred between the same excise range or is it trasnferred on a sales basis?if so,then
1.You should raise a STO to the supplying plant,this is done using ME21n.
Next the supplying plant will deliver it to the receiving plant with proper invoice/excise documents.
You will receive the material at receiving plant against the OBD number.This can be done using MIGO.
If not,
2.Then you can simply transfer the stock from one plant to another using the movement type 301 in the transaction MIGO.

To consider part of plant available stock

hello all,
May I know where in the SPRO configuration in SAP to tell the system what stock type (i.e. UU stock, QI, block, stock-in-transfer, restricted stock, etc) to
consider or not consider as available plant warehouse stock during MRP run for the Net Requirement Calculation? Thanks.
Tuffy.

Dear
May I know where in the SPRO configuration in SAP to tell the system what stock type (i.e. UU stock, QI, block, stock-in-transfer, restricted stock, etc) to :
Goto OPPQ-Enter Plant Code -Selecty Available Stock option -Mark the check Box if you want to conside those stock ( Stock in Transit-Block Stock -Unrestricted Stock ) in Net Requirement Calcualtion .Other wise , keep it uncheked if you do not want any stock like Block Stock , in MRP NRC .
At the same , check if you have OPJJ -Scope of check -for availablity with various stoks and Inward/outward movements , is correctly in place .

how could your fico consultant consume that material against asset, without the stock is going down?
did he do a FI posting only?
if so, then he has to reverse it and has to post the consumption with a MM movement.
