Lot quantity to order for a material set as reorder point planning

Dear All,
Suppose the requirements of a material are as follows:
Week1 Required quantity - 100
Week2 required quantity - 150
Week3 required quantity - 300
Week4 required quantity - 500
This material is set as "VB" (Reorder point planning in the material master)
My questions is:
Can we use periodic lot sizing procedure for a material planned based on reorder point planning , so that MRP run will consider the requirements of a month (1050) and use that as the lot size to order material.
We want to plan the material if it falls below the reorder level, but we want the system to dynamically calculate the quantity to order based on the actual demand (and not on either fixed lot size or maxmimum stock level).
with regrds

Hi
     Use Anyone of the following
1. Use automatic reorder point with forecast planning requirment.Where ssytem will calculate reorder point automatically based on weekly /monthly Forecast req.In this case Lot size you can use EX itself.
2. Use Planning type PD and lot size EX and Instaed of ROL use safety stock so that system will consider weekly sale req. and  also safety stock according to that procerement proposal will be created.

    is it possible to maintain raw fabric and Colored fabric with same mat.code?
    I have configured the material as well all pricing BOM, Recipe its working properly.
    How can I assign the material to Operation? I am getting GRAY field in New Assignment in change recipe mode ..
    Is it possible to use Material type other than KMAT? I want to use Finish material type. If yes How?
    Right now I can create Process order from the Sales order but I am facing error in confirmation that Sales Order stock does not exist than I have to transfered stock to Sales order and error get solved temporarily but  I want to avoid this manual transaction to remove this error.

    Hi,
    You can use variant configuration for selling the colored fabric. Use the basic fabric as raw. and maintain variant configuarations to have many variants.
    Please use strategy 25. When you run MRP the planned orders will be generated and will be assigned to the sales orders. You can see it on the account assignment tab.
    In material master pleasse maintain Individual collective requirement indicator to 1-individual in the MRP-4 view.
    Then the stocks will be reserved to the specific sales orders.
    Thanks and regards

  • How to create Inpection Lot Z01 & 04 Type for same Material different Plans

    I am trying to create an Inspectoin Lot for two different Inspection Types.  One for (Z01) Incoming Inspection via MIGO and the other for (04) GR Inspection for Production via MFBF.  The problem is I have the same Material for two different Inspection Plans.  The Z01 Inspection Type was copies from the 01 Inspection Type only difference is I activated the Multiple Specs feature for Z01.
    1st Plan = Materia Group....BM206014,  Group Counter....1  (GR Incoming Inspectoin Z01 type)
    2nd Plan = Material Group....BM206014,   Group Counter....2    (GR Inspection for Production 04 type)
    A)  When I do the (Material Backflush) MFBF for the 04 type, the Inspection Lot gets created OK.  I then can go into QA32 and assign the correct Inspection Plat by clicking the Inspection Lot button.
    B)  When I do the MIGO via the Purchase Order (type Z01), it will not create the Lot if I have the Multiple Specs selected in the QM Material Master MM02.  If, I turn off the Multiple Specs in the QM Material Master and create a new PO and MIGO, it will create the Lot, however, it automatically assigns the lot to the wrong Inspection Plan (2nd Plan see above)  I need to be able to select the plan like I can with the 04 type.
    Is their some setting that can be changed in Config or somewhere that acts the same way as example A above?

    For case A, create insp plan with usage "1- production" If you have one IP with this usage for given material then system will assign Plan to lot automatically. In your case for second plan update usage as 1.
    For case B, system should assign 1st plan make sure for both plan udage is correct. for 1st plan usage should be 5 while 2nd plan usage should be 1. Now if your 1st have status 4 and key date before lot date then system will assign plan auto.
    Thanks!!!

  • No inspection lot can be opened for this material and vendor

    dear sir
    i m facing this error while  doing gr. also how to confirm certificate
    plz guide me
    No inspection lot can be opened for this material and vendor

    Sujit/Raj
    I got th similar error. I closed the issue as Raj said because there was an open inspection lot. Im still nto able to figure out the background or root cause for thi.
    The QIno record doe not have release Qty active and release date is 12/31/9999. Then why we have to close the previous inspection lot before recieving another. It seems like there is a condition or something that tells Inspection are to be done in stages and hence previous or pending inspection lot needs to be closed. But where i this condition coming from, where should i check.
    I created PO and performed GR. I noticed if i perform GR and if the Inpection lot has status REL SPCO SPRQ IRCH then this happens. If the status is just REL SPCO SPRQ  then I'm able to do multiple reciepts and this error does not show up.
    Any idea or suggestions?

  • No inspection lot can be opened for this material error is coming during GR

    dear friends,
    no inspection lot can be opened for this material error is coming during GR. what is the cause for this and how to solve it. please suggest me
    regards,
    Krishna

    Hi,
    i think you have maintained the quality view and activated the inspection. but you have not created any inspection lot task list for the material and plant. thsi you can create through QP01 there maintain the material and plant. then enter in inspection plan give usage 5 and status 4. save it and try to check it with QA32 and see the lot. it should be released then only you can give usage decision.

  • Sales order for pipeline material type..

    Hi All,
    How can we raise the sales order for pipeline material..
    Is schedule lines will be there for the sales order raised for pipeline material???
    Rgds,
    Pavan

    Hi
    Seems you working on  IS Utilities, please corerct if Wrong and if I am wrong to guess you are working on IS Utilities then the next story dosn't make any sence.
    PIPEline material type is used for Materials such as oil, power, or water that flow into the production process directly from a pipeline, line, or other type of conduit. Since pipeline materials are always available, they are not planned.
    To answer specifically what you asked would be as follows:
    1. The fact that material type is PIPE from an SD standpoint is irrelevant
    2. lets consider your PIPEline material is power, your UOM should be Kilowatt hours and establish price for it.
    3. "deliver" the material and bill it.
    However, taking the whole business context of sale of electricity into account why you want to sell PIPEline material without using IS Utilities. Typically electrical utiltity requirements have some unique challenges not easily met by SD:
    1. Amount to be billed to the customer is from meter readings.
    2. The bill to the customer ( at least in North America) is not so much of an invoice as opposed to statement of accounts that includes meter readings, consumption history etc.
    I will suggest to look into IS Utilties first before getting into SD.

  • Production Order for a Material with two units of measure?

    Hi Everybody I have the following issue.
    In my company there is a new production process with a Material that should be configured in the master data with the field "Base Unit of Measure" as per unit (each). But the production process, should be confirmed by tx CO11N, in Kilograms. I know that I can use the additional Data in tx MM03 to set a Production Unit, but the value of convertion would be fixed. For example 122 Kg = 1 each, the thing is that the value in kilograms for each lot can vary, one lot can weight 122 and another one can weghr 125, and in each case I shoul have two units in stock. And as I have the value of convertion fixed, when I confirm each lot one for 122 kg and another for 125 kg I will have 2.025 units in MB52.
    How can I solve this problems? I need to have the chance the confirm in kg changing for each lote the quantity but in the base Unit of Measure have one unit for lot. As if for tx CO11N I could have a field where I can set tha x quantity of Kilograms is x each.
    Kind regards
    Leandro. 

    Hi Ayoub, First thank`s for your promt answer,
    1. The Quantity is different, because is not a perfect process, there is a manual work in the process that makes this quantity differ, there is no big difference, maybe a Kilo or Two but the production mannager wants to have this registered. And besides in productions they manage kilograms, but for selling the comercials manage units (each - EA)
    2.The convertion rate is known at the end of the process after cutting and packaging a unit, they weight it.
    Regards

  • Skip lot across multiple batches for same material

    Hi,
    I am looking for a way to control skip lots across multiple batches for the same material.
    We need to do a quality check in production after a certain quantity produced (on a machine, for a material). My idea was to do skip lots (for GR)  until we reach a threshold (say 10.000 pcs) and then do an inspection for the next GR for that material.
    Any ideas how to set that up?
    Thanks for any hint
    Andreas

  • Create another purchase order for a material ordered in full

    Hello friends,
    I have a little MM question for you.
    I've created a purchase requisition with a material A and quantity 100 UN
    I've then created a purchase order in reference to this PR.
    This PO has been released.
    Is it possible, in standard SAP, to create another purchase order in reference to the same purchase requisition for the same material and the same quantitiy ?
    How does SAP control that ? (customizing path ??)
    Regards,
    Bahia.

    Dear,
    Is it possible, in standard SAP, to create another purchase order in reference to the same purchase requisition for the same material and the same quantitiy ?  Yes it is possible in SAP
    How does SAP control that ? (customizing path ??): SAP controls in that way, when ever you create purchase requisition with a material A and quantity 100 UN...Now PO created and released...
    Now again if you try to create PO wrt PR, you can observe this time you will get all deatils in PO without quantity...reason behind that is, you have already released an order for full qty w.r.t. that PR...So this time qty field will be empty..You have to manually enter this field.
    Now the same you can see in the the PR status in ME53N Tcode.

  • Material variant replacement in sales order for Configurable Material

    HI
    I am using variant configuration. In this i have created material A as configurable material and have Preconfigured Material B as its variant by assigning configurable material in MRP 3 view.
    Now when i am creating Order for material A i.e. Configurable material and the characteristics values are same as that of Preconfigured material system is not replacing Configurable material with Preconfigured material.
    Please help me out.
    Regards,
    Anand.

    Even after maintaining the item category MTAC(Mills Make to order config at mat level), the configurable material is not getting replaced in the sales order (va02). It is just showing material variant exists for the configurable material.
    The setting in item category for configuration is.
    Config. Strategy     01(Sales Order Strategy (TAC, TAM))
    Mat. Variant Action  4 (Replace configurable material (Append and change))
    ATP material variant 2 (Do not substitute if not completely available)
    Structure scope      D (Configuration, poss. with BOM explosion)
    I have maintained the stock for material variant as well to take care of ATP material varinat setting shown above.
    Please suggest if missing something.
