How to associate independent requirements to specific customers in SAP

Hello Experts,
I have a question about customer independent requirements.
My client has some customers for which they expect more sales. So, they want to enter some specific requirements, start producing  and want to make sure that they are kept reserved for these customers and do not get consumed by the others.
They do not wish to enter fake sales orders into the system until they actually get the order , nor do they wish to go for scheduling agreements, with these customers.
So, I thought of using customer independent requirements and tried transaction code MD81 but in MD81, there was no place to enter a customer no. anywhere. Without mentioning the customer, how do we ensure that the stock produced shall not get used up by other requirements? We are followng a make-to-stock scenario and planning to run MRP and generate planned orders to carry out the production.
Can anyone please suggest as how to handle this requirement in SAP?
Regards
Papri

Hi,
MD81 is for Customer Independent Requirement and this is a specific requirement from customer.
Production execution happens only after receiving the requirement from the customer i.e. MD81 then rest of the process is same only difference is produced stock ( sale order stock ) is delivered only to the particular customer and It can not be delivered to another customer independent requirement.
In your case it is possible to associate with specific customer because your are creating the requirement through MD81.

  • Planned Independent Requirements Data Conversion

    Hi, I am currently trying to figure out what data I need for converting Planned Independent Requirements from Oracle 11i to SAP.  Can someone explain to me what equates to a PIR in SAP from Oracle?
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi YMReddy,
    my requirement is that I input PIR for some materials, and want those materials reserved by this PIR, since this PIR are special, can not be used by other requirement.

  • Long-term planning: how can I reorganize "bulk" independent requirements ?

    Hello,
    Due to some circumstances I have dependent simulative requirements with no relation to any independent requirements.
    I thought that with ms01 (Processing key NEUPL -Regenerative planning and Planning mode 3 - Delete and recreate planning) those independent requirements will
    be deleted because the former independet requirements are no more existing.
    But they remain existing. (in mfs0)
    How can I reorganize "orphaned" independent requirements in long term planning.
    Thanks for any help
    Thomas

    Thanks a lot for answer.
    The subject of my original-question was
    wrong. It should say "dependent" requirements
    instead of "independent" requirements.
    I solved the problem by deleting the
    respective entries in MDSM-Table
    But anyway, the usage of md74/75 was a
    good recommandation, thanks very much.

  • Independent requirement for KANBAN Calculation

    Hi all guru,
    Now i can use kanban caculation for Semi-FG (it use dependent requirement for calculate) and i want to calculate FG too! but i don't know how to configure to use independent requirement (forecast) for automatic kanban calculation. who expert know please explain to me?
    Thank you in advance...
    Edited by: Konnapa on Jul 6, 2009 12:31 PM

    Kanban Calculation takes place for requirements at a control cycle      
    level, specifically at a supply area level.The kanban calculation can   
    therefore be only carried out for dependent requirements that refer to a
    supply area. This supply area is usually assigned to the BOM item but   
    also can be defined in production version or material master.  
    Please refer the following documentation:                                                                               
    SAP R/3 Enterprise Application Components                               
      Logistics                                                             
        Production Planning and Control (PP)                                
          PP KANBAN                                                         
            PP - KANBAN                                                     
              Automatic Kanban Calculation                                  
                Calculating Depndt Reqmts for Automatic Kanban Calculation  
    I am afraid, independent requirements(PIRs in MD61) entered and also    
    sales order requirements can only be tracked at a plant level, and hence
    cannot be included for Kanban calculation. On the same lines the        
    dependent requirements that are defined only at a storage location level
    are also not included!                                                                               
    In fact KANBAN scenario is suitable for the business where the          
    procurement need not be planned well in advance, all procurement can be 
    initiated at any time once KANBAN is empty. This is the most important  
    characteristic of KANBAN. The introduction of PIRs into this scheme     
    contradicts this very objective of 'avoiding' lead times in planning.   
    This is also the reason why KANBAN calculation is more appropriate for  
    dependent requirements from supply area, characteristic of most         
    automotive industries, where make-to-stock planning happens mostly at
    higher Sub-assembly levels and not at component levels.                 
    Kanban is more relevant to only one subset of MRP requirement elements  
    i.e, the Dependent requirements.                                                                               
    Also, incase you want to include all storage locations / supply areas   
    in the plant for the control cycle in question,then in PK02, for the    
    said control cycle , under Kanban calculation tab, click on "Additional 
    Requirements Button" and enter the plant (without the storage           
    location/supply area). In this case,the automatic kanban calculates all 
    the dependent requirements in the plant.
    In automotive releases we have the BADI MPKC_REQ_SELECTION             
    hooked in the function module PK_READ_DEPENDENT_REQUIREMENTS.
    Customers, who want additional requirements such as the ones from APO to
    be included for calculation, can program here.                                                                         
    Production Supply area is the key for the requirements to match with the
    control cycle. Hope I have clarified your query.

  • Purchasing & Order Tracking for New Independent Requirements

    Could anyone tell us how they are currently handling new independent requirements that are not available in the system?
    We are looking at a solution for our purchasing organization for engineering demands where a user needs to purchase a part or service which does not exist in SAP. Currently the user is manually procuring the item. We would like to come up with an automated solution so there will be better inventory tracking and reporting.
    Part of our problem is that the item does not exist in the material master in SAP hence cannot be purchased through the system. Do we have to insist that all part be loaded into the system, but then this would slow down the up-front buying process thereby affecting engineering design.
    Any thoughts/ ideas or best practices would be much appreciated.

    Hello Fred,
    You can purchase materials and services without master.

    HI
    GOOD
    IT IS POSSIBLE IN ABAP
    Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple, very flexible text format derived from SGML (ISO 8879). Originally designed to meet the challenges of large-scale electronic publishing, XML is also playing an increasingly important role in the exchange of a wide variety of data on the Web and elsewhere.
    XSD->
    XML Schemas express shared vocabularies and allow machines to carry out rules made by people. They provide a means for defining the structure, content and semantics of XML documents. in more detail.
    XDS->
    XDS can process data images from CCD-, imaging-plate, and multiwire-detectors in a variety of formats. Detector specific Input file templates greatly simplify the use of XDS; they are provided as part of the documentation.
    XDS runs under Unix or Linux on a single server or a grid of up to 99 machines of the same type managed by the MOSIX system; in addition, by using OpenMP, it can be executed in parallel on up to 32 processors at each node that share the same address space.

  • ATP against planned independent requirements

    I have set up materials that are linked to planning materials using strategy group 63.  I have tested setting the planning material consumption to a 2 for forwards/backwards and 3 for forward only.  I have set up planned independent requirements by week.
    When I book a sales order it gives me a material availability date that is in the week prior to the availability of the material based on planning.  For example I have 100 parts available for week 30 which starts on July 21 yet my sales order shows a material availability date of 7/16 and a goods issue date of 7/18.  How can I ship the goods if they are not available yet.   Any ideas on what could be wrong?? 
    Many thanks for any and all help!!

  • How to manage Customer Specific Labelling in SAP?

    Hi there - hope you can help.
    I am looking for some advice on managing Customer specific labelling in SAP.
    Details:
    Each product we sell gets labelled.
    The labels are material and customer specific.
    We currently manage labels (1/ Label Codes and 2/ Label Stock) in an excel spreadsheet - but I am hoping to incorporate it into SAP.
    Looking at the CMIR, I can list the label code in the Customer Description field or in the Search Term field (customer material is already used) - but this doesn't feel correct and would only solve part of the issue.
    Other companies may have a similar requirement - so my question is, how can I manage the customer / material specific labelling in SAP (both codes
    and stock)?
    Many thanks
    Mada

    If EHS is integrated at your clients' place, then I think, you can achieve this requirement as per the below documentation

  • Plan independent requirement?

    hi
    what is plan independent requirement and what is the link with it sales order.is it made after sales order or before sales order.please explain in detail.also please explain what is the the difference between
    mrp type PD and VB.
                                                                                    regards
                                                                                    sanjay

    As the name suggests ,it is independent on sales order or any other orders. It is the input to MRP. If for a material you are creating PIR in MD61 as 100 in 1 month, It means you need 100 qty of that material produced in your plant after one month. It is independent.
    Then MRP will give you the procirement proposals like purchase requisitions(if externally procured materials are short of the requirement..i.e for 100 qty) and planned orders(if inhouse materuals are short of the requirement..i.e for 100 qty)...
    PIRs are those which are created by you.. you can create them at any time. MRp will take care of making the necesary materials to be available for that requirement...i.e it will prompt us the dates on which the materials have to be available in the plant to meert the requirement...
    PD and VB:
    PDwill work with BOM structures.
    Imagine the final material A , and its component B
    you need 2 pieces of B to produce 1 piece of A.If you work with PD and you receive for example a sales order for A of 10 pieces , the MRP with PD will determinate that you need 20 pieces of B taken into account the sales order delivery date.
    The system will use the BOM to know the quantity that you need. You will not have additional stock for the component B. The system will procure when and how many pieces you need.
    IF with the same example you work with VB for component B, then you have to define a reorder point (example 5).
    If your stock is bellow that level ,the system will procure to get again the reorder point level. If you have enough stock (example 30) the system will not create any purchase requisiton for B, independent of the sales orders of A , and the reservation of 20 pieces.
    When yuo work with expensive components you should use PD , because you don´t have stock without pegged requirements.
    if the materials are cheap and you need to have allways some stock , you can define VB as planning type.

  • Uploading Planned Independent requirements

    Hi Gurus,
    Could anybody suggest how to upload planned independent requirements with LSMW? I have tried doing the same with the direct input method but the standard program gives an error and does not run. Is there any way of doing the same?
    Thanks and regards,

    LSMW Will not work for PIR use BAPI 'BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE'  for PIR creation.
    In SE37 You can check this.

    Hi,
    How can find who has deleted the PIR detail?
    Is there any table related to it?
    Thanks
    Srini

    Hi,
       Goto table PBIM - Independent Requirements for Material. Enter either Material Number or Reqmts Plan number and execute. Check the column Deletion indicator (Field - LOEVR) "D". If it is set, represents that material is deleted. (Or enter "D" in Delection Indicator field in the PBIM table and execute to get the deleted PIR line items)
      Also, if you want to know the details of that material, get the value of Independent requirements pointer (Field - BDZEI) and pass this field in PBHI - Independant requirements History table and get its details.
      Hope you can get this...

    Hi Raf,
    If you are using planning strategy 20 (MTO) then directly create sales order
    If u r use planning strategy 10, 11, 40 (MTS) then you can use create PIR (planned independent requirements)

  • Planned Independent Requirements

    Can any body tell me what exactly Planned Independent Requirements means and how it differs means from dependent requirements?
    Thanks for your time
    Thanks Again,

    Hi,
    To produce a finish material, there should be some requirements. The requirements can be in form of forecast or order based. Order based requirements are triggered by sales order or customer requirements. The forecast can be done in any any system for a particular finished product in SAP or non SAP system. After carrying out the forecast, this can be entered into SAP as planned independent requirements. The term PIR is nothing but requirements which are triggered by planning and not by order.
    PIR comes into picture when you are using a MTS or related scenario.
    Hope this make it clear to you.
