How to do capacity levelling

Dear Frndz,
Pls help me how to do capacity levelling.....
Scenario:
I have created two production orders for the same finish date as a result the work center is overloaded.Now I want to do capacity levelling.Tell me the step by step procedure to do capacity levelling, so that the capacity problem is solved.
Regards,
Srini.

HI,
Capacity leveling after order creation
This process covers capacity leveling of requirements from the production process, monitoring the capacity after different periods, and how the system determines the new values for the current order after changes are made to the quantities, times, and dates.
1) T Code CM21
2) Enter the field Plant & work Center
3) Choose Enter.
The current orders whose operations result in capacity loads at the selected work center are displayed. By scrolling through the different charts in the planning table, you can analyze the information provided.
4)For a better view, choose Settings ® Scale ® Monthly period split.
5) To automatically dispatch one or several operations of an order, click the red rectangle in the order's diagram section to select the order and choose .
The order disappears from the order pool and reserves a time segment in the work center section.
6) To manually dispatch one or more operations of an order, select the order in the diagram section, drag it to the work center section with the mouse, and place it in a time period that you select.
7) To deallocate an order, select it in the work center's diagram section and choose .
The order is again displayed in the order pool.
8) To analyze the changes made in scheduling, select an order in the order's diagram section and choose Order.
9) Choose Item and write down the start and finish dates of the operation you selected.
10) Choose Enter until the Planning Table: SAPSFCG001 Finite Scheduling Forw./All Functs.Active screen appears.
11) Drag the order to a valid section in the work center's diagram section. Make sure that you move the order to a valid and defined start and finish date.
13) Select the order in the work center's diagram section and choose Order.
14) Choose Item and compare the new start and finish date.
15) Choose Enter until the overview tree appears.

srivas

    Hi,
    How to run mrp and capacity leveling through heuritics.
    What are the setps required for production planning run this thing in the heuritics in pp/ds?

    Sunil,
    APO PP/DS doesn't have a 1-to-1 match for MRP/Cap levelling per se.  There are, though, a limitless number of ways to achieve the results you want.
    Start with a basic PP planning MRP - SAP_PP_002, which will should create all necessary planned orders
    Then try a DS heuristic to schedule your orders according to capacity.  Schedule Sequence SAP001 is a good starting point.  This can be used to schedule your cap relevant work centers such that they fully load the capacity available, similar to cap levelling.

  • How to incorporate availability check into Capacity Leveling

    Dear All,
    Is there a way to incorporate availability check (ATP) into capacity leveling process for planned/production orders?
    To make SAP check components availability on new dispatched dates: 
    - if components are available then to do dispatching,
    else, find next available date for capacity, check components availability
    To continue such search this until all components will be available on dispatched dates.
    Thanks in advance,

  • After capacity leveling  dependent requirement s to be adjusted

    hi
    iam planning a fert product on 30 th agust for 100nos
    created md61 -pir for 100 nos
    done mrp run at mdo2 and got scheduled dates for 100nos which has gone beyond the requirement date as i was chhosed leed time scheduling  and made dependent reqirement proposal for the order operation date.
    here the important thing is the work center which i nedd to produce was fully engaged inthe period (schedule period which system proposed)  .hence i made capacity leveling and planned order dates were changed again
    which are actual producion dates
    after capacity leveling my planned order was firmed
    my problem here is  the dependent requirement proposal date also
    need to be changed with respect to firmed planed order.
    how to achive this
    i tried with opu5
    but no changes in dependent reuirement proposal (planned order)
    plz suggest

    hi
    i tried it but unfortunatly it is creating a new planned order and giving exemption messge to the firmed planned oder as cancel the proposal
    which is not at all acceptable
      means for a single PIR
    i made mrp run AND got planned order , after leveling the planned order was firmed
    means my pir was satisfied with this
    i made mrp run without changing PIR dates and quantity by expecting that it should propose a new dependent reqirement 
    but system created a new planed order to  pir date which sholud not happen.

  • Capacity Planning & capacity leveling

    Dear All,
    If we have two Sales Orders in the same date for two different materials which will use the same work center for processing, and if we run the MRP then two planned orders will be generated. Here according to the capacity planning the system will calculate the number of days required to process in the work center and the job will be assigned to the work center for planned order 1. Then when the system tries to allocate jobs from the planned order 2 to the same work order then the system will show the over load. Then we have to do capacity leveling to remove the over load.
    But the clientu2019s requirement is that when the system calculates the available capacity of a work center in the planning horizon, the system should not consider the time for which the job is already assigned from the planned order 1. And the system should assign the job from the planned order 2 to the work centeru2019s available (capacity) time excluding the (capacity) time for which the job is already assigned from the planned order 1 in that planning horizon. If there is no Available capacity in that planning horizon then the system shall show the over load and then the client shall go for the capacity leveling.
    How to go about Please help.

    Hello Satish,
    Let me understand you issue:
    You would like system to give overload only when there is no capacity available in planning horizon.
    Did you try using tabular planning board ? Tabular planning board uses bucket principle. It will give overload only when the whole bucket is full. It will not check the date and time of planned order # 1. While allocating capacity to plannined order # 2, the bucket's full capacity will be checked.  In your case try allocation bucket size equal to your planning horizon period.

  • Capacity Leveling of Work Center

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with Capacity of Work center (WC).
    I have a Internal Activity, and i assigned a WC for this Internal Activity. WC's capacity is 100H/day for 1 number of element.
    Work of this WC is 250H, duration 5 days, number of element 1. Default capacity of this WC is distributed by Distribution Key define in Activity. . And they are divided equally between factory days in 5 day. That is capacity requirement is 50H/Day
    So, i want to edit this WC's capacity following value:
    Day 1: 100H/day
    Day 2: 50H/day
    day 3: 0H/day
    day 4: 0H/day
    day 5: 100H/day
    How can i do it?? I try to use Dispatch Manually but i cant solve this problem.
    Please help me for this case.
    Thank all.

    Dear
    Capacity leveling depends on some of the basic set up of Capacity Requirement Planning .You need to have proper CRP set up frist .
    Couple of check points : -
    Did you work centre is relevent for finitie scheduling in CR02-Capacity Header and wht is the over laod percentage for work centre ?
    Did you have Capacity Requirement Related Set up like Over all profile , time profile , Startegy Profile -OPD0?
    Did your Capacity Check -OPJK -Order Control at order level are active for availibilty Check 1 and 2 and assinged Over all Profile ?
    Set up :
    1.Please assing a operation control key like PP01 where Details Capacity Check and scheduling is active .
    2.In CR02-Work centre -Capacity Header -You should have Follow check box marked
    1.Releven for Finitie Scheduleing
    2.Can be used for multiple Operation
    3.
    3.OPU3/OPU5 -Define Scheduling paramter -Mark Scheduling and Capcity Check for planned order or production Order
    4.In SPRO -Shop Floor Control-Define Production Scheduling Profile -You need to matian the relevent Parameters like
    1.Schedueling Automatically 2.Scheduling Log 3.Adjust Scheduling -Basic date , Depedent Requirement date 4.Scheduling Type -Backward etc .
    These are all basic level set up beside CRP overall profile and other profile like strategy /time etc which may in place as you are analysing in CM01.
    Please find below some of the useful CRP details : Refer this threads which are self explaintory :

    How to dispatch operation to do Capacity Leveling at Work Centre Level :
    1.Frist Check the  over load at work centre . Goto -CM07/CM05-give plant only -then hit the Stnadard view -You will find weekly or daily baiss load ( Requirement , Avaliable Capcity , Overlaod etc )
    2.Check the week in which days you are tring to dipatch -if you selet the week check box and double clik it will show u all the dataiul load .Basde on the available capacity in other week-days u need to dipatch in CM22/CM31  or CM25/CM21
    While dipatching in CM22/CM31-Select the Stragegy button on the top header -Mark Date entry when dispatching  so that when you select the operation of any production order or planned order for certain work centre , it will pop with window having information of Date , Work Centre , Time .Onec you did this you will receive Scheduling log with certain information .

  • Capacity leveling. Aim is to have oders scheduled within 1 day if possible

    Hi All,
    I have a list of 10 prod. orders with same basic/scheduled start/finished date= today
    In capacity leveling, if i select a whole list of these orders and dispatch them, i get all orders with start day= today, finish date= today+ x days.
    I would like to have orders scheduled with start/finish date within 1 day.
    I have available capacity of 4 hours per day. Each order takes around 1,5 hours, thus i can have 2 orders scheduled for today, and so on. This is exactly what i need.
    My kind question to you is how to setup SAP in a such way.
    NB: If i do leveling for each order one by one, then i get what i want: e.g. order is scheduled within 1 day.
    Best Regards,
    Andrey

    Dear Andrey
    Your requirement is, Automatic capacity levelling based on the available capacity.
    In SAP R/3 PP module, only manual capacity levelling is available. Automatic is possible in APO.
    If the requirement dates are same for multiple orders, system will through all the orders in the same date and it will display overloaded. So manually we need to dispatch the overload to the required date.
    Please check the below thread also.

  • Capacity Leveling Problem

    If I have an order that requires 85 hours of production, and the work center responsible only has available capacity of 14 hours per day, how can I divide up the order in a Capacity Leveling Planning Table (CM22)? When I dispatch the order, it automatically overloads the work center instead of spreading itself out over several days. When I created the production order I gave it a start date 2 weeks away from the finish date. Yet in capacity leveling, when I dispatch the order, it only goes to one day and overloads the work center by several hundred percent?
    Basically, how can I take this single order and divide it up over 7 days in Capacity Planning?

    In both the "strategy" box of CM22 and the "capacity" tab of CR02, I have made sure that the relevant boxes for finite scheduling were checked.  However, the system still overloads the work centers.  This would mean that there is a 'finite' capacity in each work center and that each center cannot be overloaded, but my work centers still load themselves to nearly 1000% capacity!  Why is this?  How can I make sure that when a work center reaches capacity, it's quantities flow into the next available slot?  
    How can I spread the requirements over a period of several dates and not just one?

  • Capacity Leveling in SNP SCM 5.0

    Hi,
    I want to use the SNP heuristic followed by capacity leveling in order to enable my customer to check capacity requirements in terms of machine and people resources. The particular requirements are:
    1. no backward/forward capacity leveling
    2. level the capacity across alternate resources
    I don't see how I can do 2 without doing 1. I haven't seen a parameter about the number of days allowed in backward/forward leveling (which I would set to zero or to a low number e.g. 2 days)
    Best Regards,
    JL

    I dont think you should be using the standard capacity levelling functionality at all if you are not going to level it forward or backward
    What you need to think of is planning using Aggregated resources.
    In a nutshell you creatae new header resources that are of capacity equivalent to your resources plus alternate resources
    Do SNP plannign on the aggregated ( header )resource
    Level or trim any excess capacity requirements (levelling wouldve done this for you but you got to specify the direction)
    Disaggregate to the member resources based on some disaggregation rules (or you can customize this)

  • Capacity Leveling  Or Tabular Mettod

    Hi Experts
    Can any one tell me About the capacity leveling or tabular method And how we used it in our day to day scenario.
    Rgds
    Pankaj Agarwal

    Hi Pankaj,
    Normally in domestic projects very less usage has been seen for Capacity LVl. but by the Tcode CM25 you can use this form of levelling. CM25 is tabular capacity planning board where you can see the capacity requirements laid against the planned orders or work centers. After visualizing the plan you can better evaluate the capacity requirement. But it is mainly used to priortize the operations in std. practice.
    There as the board you can select the plaaned order and via allcaote and Deallocate buttons you can take these operations. And finnaly you despatch it them to upper tab of the boards as yr firm capacity load.
    Pls try it. It is a very good tool,

  • Capacity Leveling - CM22 - Question

    Colleagues,
    We are using CM22 for performing capacity leveling functions.
    1) In the standard system the Total capacity requirements (First column), are updated based on confirmation. We noticed that
    only confirmaton yield is posted, the capacity requirement is deducted. However, we would like to know if capacity requirements can be deducted, just by confirmin the operation hours alone.
    2) In the standard system, the Total capacity requirements incudes all the time buckets against an operation and sums it up as requirement. Therefore, if you have setup time, processing time in an operation both are added to the total capacity requirements and displayed.  We would like to consider only processing time and not include setup time in to the total capacity requrements field.
    If any of you have modified the total capacity requirement field on CM22, I would appreciate your thoughts and inputs on how to go about doing this.
    Thanks,
    PKV

    Hi, I didnt get your 1st question correctly. please elaborate.
    For point No-2,  From a business prespective if you dont want to capture setup time in ur capacity reqmt, then you should'nt be entering the same in the work center.  For some of the clients  we have used only process time so that we can plan actual capacity reqmt.  But in those case, the setup time was negligible when compared to process time.

  • Capacity leveling problems

    I have some troubles with implementing capacity leveling. I cannot level with planned orders (cable solution), so it is only possible to plan production orders.
    The setup matrix is used (because setup times can be greatly reduced, depending on the succesor).
    For some operations, simular machines can be used. CM21 (work center view) is used. Version: R/3 release 4.6C.
    Now a couple of problems rise.
    Problem 1:
    Since there are simular machines, normally production versions are used for capacity leveling. However, we have to level with production orders, so production versions are not applicable.
    Making one workcenter with different individual capacities is also no solution, since SAP messes up with setup times then (i.e. two operations of different production orders have to leveled onto the work center. Normally, the setup is 20h, but if it is a right succesor, it has to be 0h. This is mentionned in the setup matrix. If we dispatch now with a specific strategy for setup time optimization, only one operation will have setup time and the other operation will be schedule from the start on of the other operation's setup... In reality, two setups has to be done, since there are two machines!).
    Alternative sequences is also no solution. While leveling, the alternative sequence will never be used by SAP, in my view.
    Problem 2:
    The strange logic of SAP: setup of the next work center can only be done if the production on the previous work center has finished. In reality, the setup of the next work center can overlap with the production of the previous workcenter.
    Besides these two problems, there are some more troubles with capacity planning in SAP. SAP messes up sometimes by putting the setup time before the wrong operation (sometimes, the first operation has no setup time and the second does. However, this should be the other way around.).
    If you plan an operation manually, SAP doesn't take into account the setup matrix.
    Does anyone has a solution?

    Hi  Walravens,
    What i have understood is, u have the avilability of multiple resouces to produce same material, if any capacity bottle neck, u level the different production order of same material from "one work center" to "another workcenter".
    At  cm21, select the mutiple workcenters (selection criteria) and dispatch the operation as need.
    For setup time overlap, how to system know ur producing two operations (from two different orders) with same setup.
    Even the operations from same production order, system consider the set up time of the second operations unless u define overlap function. . Am I understood your problem in correct way.
    So remove the set up time for second operation and dispatch. 
    Regards
