Make to order production - schedule line not confirmed

Hi,
I created a " make to order production " having few normal materials & few supersession materials.
created PO, GR,invoice, all done.PO is updated in sales order.
Schedule line is automatically confirmed for normal materials, but not confirmed for supersession materials.
can anybody tell me , how schedule line can be automatically confirm for supersession materials.
Thanks.

Is your scenario a third party one? After you finished GR for the PO, have you checked inventory of those materials? But I still didn't understand what's difference between new material and "supersession" old one? New for what and old for what? Could you be more specific or any example will be helpful.

Schedule Lines not confirmed

Hi SAP experts
Can somebody tell me as to why schedule lines for a material is not confirmed for a material while creating a sales order. I tried creating an order for two materials and since one of the material does not have confirmed schedule lines, it is affecting the delivery and the subsequent functions.
Issue requires immediate action. Pl help me

Hi,
It looks like you don't have enough stock for this item as in availability check,it is not able to confirm item. In case MMBE shows that you have stock available in that particular plant, then it could be possible that the stock is already reserved for other order to be delivered later. To check that, goto the order, select the item which is giving problem, click on display availability. check if you have any customer order in the list confirmed for a later date.( It will show confirmed quantity. ).
Now you can decide, based on the priority, how you want to go. You can un-confirm the quantity in confirmed order, so that quantity is available for other orders.
Thanks,

3rd Party Consignment Process - Schedule Line Not Confirmed

Below is the process that is being followed in the system:
1) Consignment Fill Up is created with materials having Item Category as "Consignment 3rd Party ".
2) A Purchase Requisition is automatically created as soon as the Order is saved.
3) A Batch Job runs periodically that removes the check "X" in the field "Account Assignment Category " from the Purchase Requisition.
4) After the X is removed from PR, another Batch Job runs that creates the Purchase Order from Purchase Requisition.
5) After PO creation, Delivery is created from Consignment Fill Up Sales Order. (Vendor directly delivers the material to Customer and the PGI of delivery moves the Stock into Consignee's account)
Issue that happened in the System:
1) A Consignment Fill Up was created with 2 materials having item category as "Consignment 3rd Party "
2) A Purchase Requisition was automatically created.
3) "X" was removed from "Account assignment category" field in PR by the Batch Job. Removal of this "X" breaks the link between the Fill Up Order and Purchase Requisition.
4) After this, Purchase Orders were created for both the materials.
5) Now, in the Consignment Fill Up, Sales Unit was changed from KG to LB for line item 10. This caused the Schedule Line for line item 10 to change its status from "Confirmed" to "Not Confirmed" and Confirmed Quantity = 0.
6) Now, when the delivery was created for the Fill Up Order, only Line Item 20 was delivered.
7) The main issue here is - How to create the Delivery for line item 10 from Fill Up OR How to confirm the Schedule Line for line item 10 ??
Is there any way out by which the line Item 10 can be seen in VL10H or VL01N ?
Note: We cannot change any configuration as we only have display access for the configuration.
One solution could be - To reject the Line Item 10 in the Fill Up Order and then creating a fresh Fill Up Order for the same material and same quantity and then, deliver it. This would also move the Material Stock into Consignee's Account.
But, if there is any workaround available by which we can deliver the Line item 10 without rejecting it, please let me know.
Thanks n advance for your suggestions.

Hello,
the proposed solution seems correct to me: check if when creating the new item, you have the option to choose an alternative item category not creating a Purchase request but getting material from available stock.
If you simply create a new item, its account assignment category will expect to get the material to be delivered from special stock E assigned to that item.
Anyway if this doesn't work you don't have many alternatives: why don't you ask to the SAP support team or to the IT to solve this issue?

Schedule Lines not confirmed for Consignment Fillup

Hi
I created Consignment Fillup, Schedule lines are not confirmed, even though stock is available in MMBE.

Check what schedule line category is flowing. I believe it should have been E1 and in VOV6, for this schedule line category, the box "Availability" is checked. Next go to material master and check whether the availability check is either 01 or 02 is maintained.

Sales order Schedule line not showing in prod. order

Hi
I am using Make-to-order production. In my production order i can able to see the sales order number, item number but not able to see the schedule line number. It is showing zero. But in table VBEP table when i checked, system gives the sales order number (eg.1511632), item number (10) and schedule line number (0001).
Why in production order screen and AFPO table i am not getting schedule line number(field name-KDEIN).
Regards
Ganesh M

Hi,
When an item has more than one schedule line, the system automatically assigns a unique number to each line. The number is displayed in the details screens for schedule lines. The schedule line number serves internal purposes and does not, for
example, determine the sequence of schedule lines in the overview screen. The schedule lines on the overview screen are sorted by date.
Please go to Sale order view from MD04, Click on Item no. and go to schedule line tab page, now you can see the line items and if you want to see in detail click each line item, it will show line item number clearly.

Sales order does not allow make-to-order production

Dear Friends,
I am trying to do do planned order for sales order in MD50 it was showing the error message as
"Sales order does not allow make-to-order production"
Can any one solve this
Shakthi

Hi Shakthi,
It is also possible to set the priority for Requirement Type determination like
0 Material master strategy, then item category and MRP type
1 Item Category and MRP Type
2 as 1, with check for allowed requirement type.
The transaction for this is same as "Requirement Type Determination :
Sales and Distribution --> Basic Functions --> Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements --> Transfer of Requirements --> Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transaction
Look for "Source".
In this transaction, Please, check "Requirements".
Please, make sure of the following 2 things :
1. If you do not set an indicator for maintaining the requirements class: Transfer of requirements is not carried out, irrespective of the specification you make at schedule line level for the transaction.
So it is necessary to mantain the setting first at the Requirements Class. As mentioned in my earlier posts, the requirement class for the material can be found out from Planning Strategy / MRP3 view --> Main strategy (defined in the strategy group) --> Requirement Class for Customer Requirements.
The IMG path for "Define Strategy" is Production --> Production Planning --> Demand Management --> Planned Independent Requirements --> Planning Strategy --> Define Strategy.
2. Once the "Requirements" indicator is set in Requirement Class, the requirements indicator at the Schedule Line decides whether or not you require transfer of requirments for the relevant transaction.
I hope this should solve your problem.

Sandeep

Sales Order Credit Status Block with Schedule Line ATP Confirmed Quantity

I would like to keep the Credit Status Block on a Sales Order when it is created and over the credit limit and at the same time be able to Confirm the Order Quantity (if inventory is available) on the Schedule Line. Has anyone done this? I'm using ECC 5.0
In the IMG --> Sales and Distribution --> Basis Functions --> Credit Management/Risk Management --> Credit Management --> Define Automatic Credit Control --> If I remove the Status/Block indicator the schedule line does confirm the sales order quantity but the sales order is not blocked and a delivery can be created.
Thanks.
Donna

Hello Donna,
I think I solved your problem.
There are two ways to block the sales order - one is to not confirm the Schedule line i.e. block delivery... block further action that can be taken. The second is to not let the person save the sales order.
Another option is to get Just a warning message, that the credit limit has been exceeded, but able to save the sales order with a confirmed schedule line.
The setting will be in OVA8.
For the Document Value you make the setting C or A. and make sure the block is not set.
Don't worry about the Open order or open delivery unless you want the system to perform a credit check considering the orders that are already existent. Same with open delivery. It will take into account all the cost of the orders that are open for delivery.
Now here some options:
Either consider a 'warning' by the system good enough and still be able to confirm the schedule line.
(ii) Put in a Delivery Block in the Sales Document Types, in the Shipping tab. That way, you will be able to save the sales doc. but not be able to deliver it.
(iii) Put a Billing Block in the Sales Doc type, in the Billing tab. You will be able to deliver but not bill.
(iv) Create a new routine (with the help of an ABAP guy) and place it in the auto credit check, 'Reaction' field where it will place a Delivery Block.
Do let me know what your thoughts are and what you decided to do.
Thanks

Schedule line getting confirmed when Ordered Quanity is greater than stock.

Hi Sap Gurus,
We have an issue in one of the sales scenario.
In one of the sales orders the ordered quanity is purposely maintained greater than the stock at respective storage location(batch managed).
In this case the schedule line should not get confirmed and it should not allow delivery document creation.
But in the sales order the schedule lines are geeting confirmed and even the delivery document is getting created with picking request completion.
Could you please help to understand :
1. why the schedule lines are getting confirmed when ordered quantity > Inventory?
2. How do I stop delivery document creaton in this scenario?
Looking for a quick response.
Thanks in advance,
Bhaskar

Hello Bhaskar,
Is Availability Check in your system considering Replenishment Lead time, if yes, then this is possible.
Check this IMG Link:
IMG - Sales and Distribution - Basic Functions - Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements - Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning - Carry Out Control For Availability Check
Here check the RLT settings.
Also check settings under In/Outward Movements, where things like include Purchase Order can lead to confirmation of stock in Sales Order, despite physical inventory being present.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Jignesh Mehta

Credit Status "Not allowed" but schedule line still confirmed

I have a little issue. I know is sth from configuration, but I don't remember where it is.
When automatic credit check is performed, and a sales order goes to "Credit Not allowed" I would like the position of the order remains unconfirmed, in order to leave the stock free for other orders.
Now the system leave the schedule lines created, confirmed, even when credit stock is "not allowed". Could sb help on this?
Regards

Hi Eduardo Vartorelli
For the Sales Order to stop the flow of requirements to MRP You have to set the status in the requirement.
Go to T code OVB8 and then set what is your requirement in the routine.
Currently the routine checks only for credit status in VBUK - CMGST if the status is B then it will not transfer the requirements to the MRP.
I am not sure what is the Credit status of your document in the VBUK. If its not "B" and still you want to hold the requirements then you can modify the routine to handle your new requirement.
If the status is B and then the requirements are trasnfering then you need to put a Break point in the rouitne and check if the routine is actually getting called or not.
The Program Name is LV07A101.

"Make-to-Order Production with Variant Configuration (147)" doesn't work ..

Hi, I'm trying to run through this scenario ) on the Cloud Showroom and clearly the document I have (147_BPP_EN_UK.doc dated Oct 2008) is out of date or at least out of sync with the system as configured u2018in the cloudu2019 u2026.. the necessary roles specified in the document are not available in the cloud and some of the transactions are not there, e.g. VL10I.
But more infuriating is that the process just does seem to work, for instance from page 13 u2026.
Item 7 ...
"If a material variant can be determined on the Display Material Variant screen, select the configurable line item and choose Enter. In this case the previous configurable material number will be replaced by the new configurable variant that was created. For example, F1000-M1 will replace F1000 if Type of Material Material Metal and Type of Packaging Normal is selected."
In my case Iu2019m not clear what the u201CDisplay Material Variant screenu201D is u2013 the previous instruction (Item 6) from the document says u201CWhen all of the configurable choices have been selected, choose Back.u201C which takes you back to the document overview. Highlighting the line and pressing enter doesnu2019t do anything and there is no option to select the configurable line item that I can find so the expected material substitution doesnu2019t happenu2026.
I've got a couple of screen scrapes that show the approriate variant material being specified and found (Characteristic Value Assignment) but there doesn't seem to be any way to attach to the forum. I have tried to double click the variant material on the Characteristic Value Assignment screen and also tried clicking clicking once and then 'entering' but neither method resulted in the necessary substitution (i.e. the overview screen still shows F1000 and not the variant material F1000-P1 that has been specified?
Also the schedule line was confirmed as deliverable u2018todayu2019 even through there is not stock u2026 all very puzzling u2013 any help much appreciated.
Regards.

I found the answer to this myself - I was looking at out of date best practice documents on our server, the latest bast practive documents are written for EHP4 and therefore should work on the 'cloud'.

Forecast Consumption in SNP for Make-to-Order products

We are working on using APO-SNP for Make-to-order products (PlngStrategyGroup = "81" in R/3). We want to achieve normal forecast consumptino on FinishedGoodLevel and generate PlndOrders which shall derive component demand for purchasing (such PlndOrers wont be released to production - they should only function as demand driven on component level)
What we have done so far: Forecast in APO-DP on Finished good level exists and has been released to SNP. The product gets "ciffed" from R/3 into APO material master with planning strategy group "20" (which is basically "make-to-stock") --> we were hoping this would allow us to use "normal" forecast consumption but nothing happens (FCST is not being consumpted by open Sales orders). Within the product view of such products APO is still "realizing" that this is a make-to-order product.
Any other ideas / thoughts what could be done to achieve "normal" forecast consumption on FGI level for make-to-order products in APO-SNP ?
Tks !

I checked in /n/SAPAPO/RRP3 (Product View), unfortunately only FC exists there
Seems that the open Sales Orders from R/3 are being created within another segment (the "element" Tab of RRP3 shows 2 segments:
1) "Make-to-stock" (which contains the FC)
2) "Make-to-order" (which contains the Sales Orders)
That might explain the issue I see (FC and SOs are in different planning segment --> no consumption). Reading about planning segments in the help sounds like I need to find a way to bring Sales Orders for Make-to-Order products into the Make-to-stock segment ... jus a thought .. any idea how to do this ? Does that mean I need to modify the CIF for Sales Order transfer for Make-to-order products ?
Tks

Overdelivery shipping for make-to-order production

Hello,
I have the following business scenario example:
We have a make-to-order production of carton boxes.
A customer places an order for 1000 UN.
Production is always planned with an overdelivery tolerance so the actual produced quantity for that particular order is 1050 UN.
The customer allows an overdelivery of 10% so it should be fine to ship the 1050 UN.
When I create the outbound delivery, the system creates it for the exact sales order amount: 1000 UN, even though there are 1050 UN produced for that order and item. So right now, the user has to manually modify the delivery quantity to match the actual stock.
Is there a standard way of configuring the system so that in the delivery creation the system selects the entire produced quantity (respecting the overdelivery tolerance)??
Do I need a user exit for this? In that case, which one should I use and what would be the logic for it?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Unfortunately there is no easy way to influence delivery quantity in delivery processing by user exit or customer function.
At creation of an delivery FORM USEREXIT_BATCH_DETERMINATION in include MV50AFZZ would be the best option to influence the delivery quantity. Despite the name of this user exit it could be used for changing normal items as well and the main advantage of this user exit is that the ATP check is done afterwards.
If you change the delivery quantity please be aware that you have to ensure the consistency of all delivery quantity fields at item level (LIPS-LFIMG, LIPS-LGMNG, LIPS-LFIMG_FLO, LIPS-LGMNG_FLO). You could use FORM LIPS_QUAN_SET (Include FV50XFLP_LIPS_QUAN_SET) to synchronize all the quantity fields.

Sales Order Schedule line not populating in the Production order

Queation: Is there a way to tell the system to look at the sales order, line item AND schedule line. It is displayed in MD04 but it doesn't carry over to the Production Order. We are a MTO and this information is relevant in a number of ways.
Please Help.

Vickie,
If you are using MTO scenario then when you run the MRP for the material, it will create a planned order for that sales order based on the dates calculated from the sales order schedule line (Shipping tab)...
So now when you convert the planned order to production order, all the sales order details will get copied.
try and revert back.
