Information on Requirements type in scheduling agreement

Does anyone can give me infomation about 'requirements type' found in the procurement tab of the scheduling agreement?

Hi,
The requirement type determination in orders/ SA as follows:   requirements types are determined according to a specific search strategy beginning with the material strategy group. Strategy for Determining the Requirements Type
1. First, an attempt is made to find a requirements type using the strategy group in the material master.(note: Define a requirement type and a class for each strategy which you will  define in the production module)
2. If the strategy group has not been maintained, the system will determine it using the MRP group.
3. If the MRP group has not been defined, the system uses the material type instead of the MRP group when accessing the corresponding control tables.
4. If no requirements type is found here, the system assumes a special rule and attempts to find a requirements type with the aid of the item category and the MRP type.
5. If this is not possible, a last attempt is made to find a requirements type with the item category only.
6. If the last attempt fails, the system declares the transaction as not relevant for the availability check or transfer of requirements
Hope this will help you to understand better

  • Condition Types in Scheduling Agreement(Urgent)

    Dear Experts.
    This is a query with reference to my earlier issue Changes in Condition ME32L.As per suggestions, to get validity periods i have clicked on Time dependent Condition In SPRO settings Under Define document Types.

    I'm not sure about your own pric proc, but in standard it should works, and also its apply per organization level.
    RM0000 and RM1000                                                      
        Control the price determination process in POs, quotations, and    
        scheduling agreements.                                             
        Both calculation schemas require 2 condition types for the gross

    Thanks for the Reply. But i think ORDRSP is for Order Confirmations.
    But I have to send Outbound Idoc for a Schedule Agreement.
    Whether the same  Idoc type & Messge type used for SO/PO(e.g ORDERS05, ORDERS/ORDCHG) can be used for Scheduling Agreement.

  • Date Type in Scheduling Agreements

    Hi,
    In a scheduling agreement when we have weekly or monthly schedules the system displays the date in the screen as 12/2010 or 13/2010 for say a weekly schedule.
    However when the data is stored in the table the delivery date is always the first working day of the week. In this case when the week is 13/2010 the data is stored in the table as 22/03/2010.
    Is there any way to change this to the last working day of the week?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Please check this:
    I think you can configure the dates based on the splitting rules. Please check T Code VOZP
    Define Splitting rules according to your requirement, maintain planning delivery schedule instructions and assign delivery schedule splitting rules.
    Hope this helps

  • Requirement Date in Scheduling agreement

    Hi
    There are 6 line items in scheduling agreement created in ME31L for subcontracting process .
    Hi
    For first 4 line items , delivery schedule mentioned is 02/08/2008 .
    For last 2 line items , delivery schedule mentioned is 05/07/2008.
    I think this could be the reason always delivery split has been happening when creating th e delivery .( 1 delivery for first 4 line items and another delivery for last 2 line items )?
    Is it right ?
    Can I request you to clarify below points .
    1.Can I tell user to change delivery schedule for last two line items as 02/08/2008 ? in which transaction user can change this delivery schedule ?
    In ME32L , When I try to change , I found it grayed out , can I know why it is so ?
    2. For many days , this scheduling agreement is existed , delivery has been happening for this scheduling agreement .If we change this delivery schedule now , what could be the ramification .
    Thanks In Advance

  • Document type LPA in schedule agreement

    any one can explain me document type LPA in schedule agreement. I read books as that is document type with release documentation. And what is the diff between LP and LPA?

    Dear,
    Please find below, which I found by search and posted by fellow collegues earlier....
    Default quantity for goods receipt
    In the standard system, the quantity open to date from the last- transmitted SA release is used in the case of scheduling agreements with release documentation (document type LPA). In the case of scheduling agreements without release documentation (document type LP), the open quantity to date is used.
    Document Type of Scheduling Agreement
    As a rule, the APO scheduling agreement in the SAP R/3 system is a scheduling agreement with the document type LP or a scheduling agreement without release documentation.
    If you use scheduling agreements of the document type LPA without confirmation control key then no default quantities can be determined from the release upon goods receipt.
    If you use scheduling agreements of the document type LPA with confirmation control key then the default quantities from the confirmation (shipping notification) are used.
    As a rule, the OLTP scheduling agreement in the SAP R/3 System is a scheduling agreement with the document type LPA.
    A scheduling agreement is a longer trem agreement with a vendor covering the supply of materials subject to predefined conditions.The conditions are valid for a pre defined period and a pre defined total purchase order quantity.
    You can enter the Target value in the header data of the scheduling agreement.You can enter the Target quantity in the item overview for each item
    You can use scheduling agreement with or without release documentation.The advantage of working with scheduliing agreement release documentation is that you always have a record of when you sent which delivery schedule information to your vendor,which you can display at any time.
    Without release documentation(Document type LP)
    The delivery schedule lines have official character-that is to say,they are transmitted to the vendor as they are saved in the system.The system does not document in detail releases aganist the scheduling agreement that have been sent to the vendor.Therefore,in the case of the document type without release documentation,the message control facility should be set up in such a way that a message is immediately sent to vendor if any changes are made to the delivey schedule stored in the system.
    With release documnetation(Document type LPA)
    If you use scheduling agreement with release documentation,the delivery schedule lines are not transmitted directly to the vendor.Intially ,the lines of the delivery schedule stored in the system for an LPA scheduling agreement for an internal information only.A message informing the vendor of your material requirements cannot be transmitted to the vendor until you explicitly create an SA release,that is forecast (FRC) or Just in Time(JIT) delivey schedule.Through this process,you can change the way schedule lines are represented.With release documentation,you can disply the SA releases(delivery schedules) transmitted to a vendor over a certain period of any time.This enables you to trace precisely when you sent which information to vendor.

  • Scheduling Agreements / Delivery Schedule / Firm zone, Trade zone

    Dear all.
    I am in the process of setting up scheduling agreements (LPA type) with firm zone and trade zone in SAP 4.5b
    The following issues  I have:
    1.) with the release via ME84, it gives me an error 'no processing message ME 857, no message record found'.
    As far as I know the customizing is correct. Can some one give a tip about what I maybe have forgotten?
    2.) I am also using the firm and trade zone, but in the automatic generated delivery schedules line it is not turning up?
    If there is any one who can help me with this subject, any information is welcome.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Wilfred

    You have to create a condition record for your message type LPH1 in order to be able to generate the message (mn10).
    At funcional level, try to update your schedule line manually through TCode me37 and then go to the ME84.
    At customizing level, here are some things that were missing when it occurred to me :
    Check in SPRO - Purchasing - Messages - Output Control - Message Types -
    Define message type for scheduling agreement schedule lin - Fine-Tuned Control: Forecast Delivery Schedule/Expediter that you have operation 9 for LPH1 and the checkbox activated.
    Check in SPRO - Purchasing - Messages - Output Control - Message Determination Schemas - DefineMessage Schema for Scheduling Agreement Release - Define Message Determ. Schema: Forecast Delivery Schedule/Ex in the control data : You must havefor LPH1 the requirement 109.
    Hope it helps

  • How are deliveries automatically created from scheduling agreement?

    How are deliveries automatically created from the schedule line of the scheduling agreement? Can anybody explain this step by step? Can we use the code VL10BATCH for this purpose? If we can, how is this code used?
    Thanks in advance.

    hi
    A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
    You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity.
    The scheduling agreement is used as a basis for delivering a material. The customer sends in scheduling agreement releases, referred to as delivery schedules, at regular intervals to release a quantity of the material.
    Document Types
    To configure document types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Header -> Define sales document types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
    The R/3 System contains the following document types for component suppliers:
    LZ - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (no external agents)
    LZM - Scheduling agreement with delivery orders
    LK - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (external agents)
    ED - Delivery by external agent (consignment issue)
    EDKO - External agent correction
    RZ - Scheduling agreement returns (no external agents)
    KAZU - Consignment pick-up for external agents
    KRZU - Consignment returns for external agents
    Item Categories
    To configure item categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Item -> Define item categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
    The system determines the following item categories for the related document types in
    documents containing materials with item category group NORM:
    Item category LZN for scheduling agreement type LZ
    Item category LZMA for scheduling agreement type LZM
    Item category LKN for scheduling agreement type LK
    Item category KEN for document type ED
    Item category EDK for positive corrections (or the manual alternative EDK1 for
    negative corrections) for document type EDKO
    Item category REN for document type RZ
    Item category KAN for document type KAZU
    Item category KRN for document type KRZU
    Schedule Line Categories
    To configure schedule line categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Schedule lines -> Define or Assign schedule line categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
    The R/3 System contains the following schedule line categories for component suppliers:
    L1, BN, L2, and CN for item category LZN
    E4, E0, E5, and BN for item category LKN
    L2 for item category LZMA (standard for delivery order processing)
    Schedule Line Types
    To configure schedule line types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Scheduling Agreements with Delivery Schedules -> Define schedule line types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
    Creating Scheduling Agreements
    To create a scheduling agreement with delivery schedules:
    1. In the Sales menu http://Ext. choose Scheduling agreement ->Create.
    2. Enter scheduling agreement type LK (standard) or LZ (external agents) and the
    relevantorganizational data.
    3. Choose ENTER.
    4. Enter the following data:
    Sold-to or ship-to party number
    Purchase order or closing number
    Material or customer material number
    You can use the Description field to identify the scheduling agreement. For
    example,
    you could enter the model year for a particular production series.
    The system allows up to 35 digits for a customer material number.
    Rounding quantity
    Usage
    Choose Goto -> Header -> Sales to enter the usage at header level, or Goto ->
    Item-> Sales A to enter it at item level. The system proposes usage S, for series, as default in both cases.
    Planning indicator
    Choose Goto -> Header ->Sales.
    Target quantity
    Mark an item and choose Goto -> Item -> Sales A
    Partners
    For scheduling agreements with external agents , choose Goto -> Header
    ->Partners to enter the external agent as forwarding agent and special stock partner
    on the partner function screen.
    5. Create a delivery schedule
    Mark an item in the scheduling agreement and choose Goto -> Item -> <Delivery
    schedule>. Enter:
    A delivery schedule number and date
    The cumulative quantity received by the customer
    The last delivery confirmed by the customer
    A schedule line with date, time, and quantity

  • Scheduling Agreement & Planning Time Fence

    Hello,
    I read a lot of articles on Planning Time Fence and the MRP Types P1 to P4 that goes with it. And I have tested it out in a Testing Environment.
    But I can't get it to do what I need.
    This is a normal planning with no PTF and MRP Type PD.
    Sometimes we have false requirements that show up in the past due to human error. When this happens, MRP rolls during the night and adds a bunch of deliveries in the past to cover the requirement.
    I wanted to use the PTF to prevent this. Meaning that extra deliveries would get added by MRP but after a PTF and not Firm deliveries. So that once the error is corrected, MRP rolls again and deleted all the extra deliveries it added.
    ** Only P2 and P4 adds deliveries after the PTF, but I need it to act normal on a day to day basis aswell and have MRP create deliveries like the print screen above. To add non-Firm deliveries after the PTF is just in rare cases of human error.
    Not sure if my explanation is clear.
    Patricia

    Hi Patricia,
    The planning time fence is there to stop MRP from making changes to requirements that fall within the planning time fence.
    Your planning time fence is a rolling period which shifts by 1 day each day and is calculated as of the current date. Yesterdays date is passed so it would not make sense for a planning time fence to use a date in the past to start it's calculation.
    Everything that falls before the end of the planning time fence will not be changed by MRP and you will see that all these schedule lines in MD04 will have an * assigned meaning they are firmed for MRP.
    If you manually add schedule lines in the past, the planning time fence will not stop you from doing this. The planning time fence will only stop MRP from making changes.
    By the way:
    If you manually add requirements to the scheduling agreement then MRP will never change these requirements as these are fixed requirements.
    If your customer would add requirements in the past or you add independent requirements in the past and your current stock does not cover the requirements the system will generate schedule lines and will put these directly after the planning time fence with an exception message assigned to them.
    As a side note:
    I always wonder why such questions arrive in the forum as this is something that can be very easily tested in the test environment.

  • Scheduling agreement without usage in MRP / MD04

    Hello,
    i want to use a scheduling agreement which isn't relevant for MRP. I use the standard agreement type LPA (Scheduling Agreement). The storage location for this process is marked as u201Cstock excluded from MRPu201D and the Source list record is also not relevant to MRP. Although I set these parameters, the schedules appear in MD04.
    Is there any possibility like the requirement class in SD? In SD I can set the parameter "Transfer of requirements".
    Regards
    Andreas

    It wont be possible to exclude seperate document type from MRP.
    Excluding a Sloc wont work. MD04 list will show the Scheduling Agreement.
    You can use a Custom 'Z' Logic to supress the Scheduling agreement from MD04. the program can be written in ABAP Code.

  • Scheduling agreements with delivery schedule - Copy control

    Hi,
    I wonder, if it would be possible / would make sense to specify for sales document type "LZ - Scheduling agreements with delivery schedule"  a copy control for referenced documents like quotations.
    Is there anybody who already has experience in that field?
    Thank you in advance for your answers.
    Best Regards,
    Melanie

    Hi,
        It is obvious that, a schedule agreement needs to come with the fixed delivery qty and dates.
    Pls explain your requirement in detail so that you will get a clear solution.
