Make-to order with production in alternative plant
Hi,
We are thinking about implementing a scenario with Make-to Order production for our products, but with production in alternative plant (special procurement type 80).
For example, sales orders will be directed to plant A, but production should take place in plant B - and using a make-to order strategy (in our case planning strategy 50 - planning without final assembly).
Is there any problems with our approach, making it not feasible to implement? Is it even possible in SAP to combine MTO with special procurement key 80 (production in alternative plant)?
Is there any other issues that can be foreseen with using this type of production strategy?
Thanks in advance,
Lars
Hi,
The production strategy which you are going to use is very fine.
As per me there is one concern. Example you have created a sales order in Plnat A, in plant A that FG is handling through Special procurement 80, then in the MRP run system will be creating a planned order in Plant B without running MRP in plant B. In MD04 screen you can see planning plant as Plant A. In plant B, u r converting this planned order in to Production order and executing the production. While doing the GR against the production order, the goods receipt will happen directly in Plant A.
This is the one problem (Accountability) you can face.

Sales Order and Production in different plants
Dear Experts,
I have a scenario where Customer specific Sales orders (MTO) will be created in one common plant, whereas production can happen in 2 other plants.
The common plant doesn't physically exists and is created in SAP to cater common requirements (raw materials, plant equipment, shared services, common items etc).
There are 2 ways to create Sales order:
1. Create order for both production plants in individual plants. (In SO line, specify the individual plant)
2. Create order for the common plant. The requirements should be distributed to both the production plants.
If I go with the 2nd option, SD, LE and QM will not have pain areas.
But, when i run MRP, the SD requirement will show in common plant. How can I transfer that to production plant?
I do have PIRs in individual plants. The same should be reduced as well.
I can create an so specific order though CO08, which is not preferred. Is there a way to auto-convert the requirement to another plant?
Thanks
PremHello Prem,
Quota arrangement with special procurement type P ('Production in alternative plant')
As suggested you can use the Quota arrangement in this case along with special procurement key production in alternative plant
Production in Alternative Plant - Special Planning Processes - SAP Library
The customizing for the special procurement SPRO -> Production -> Material Requirements Planning -> Master Data -> Define Special Procurement Type for both required plants.
For quota arrangement which has a special procurement P - Prod. other plant" defined in MEQ1, you should make sure that the field "procurement plant" is correctly maintained and percentage.
Quota usage should be 4 in material master. Please test this for PIR consumption BAdi 'MD_PIR_FLEX_CONS' will be helpful
Please see note 1967124 - BAdI enhancement for flexible primary independent requirements consumption/reduction.

Hallo
I need a computer with danish keyboard so my question is
Is it possible to make an order with danish keyboard and documentation
Jesper NielsenYou can give each track its own artwork. iTunes will normally display the artwork of track 1 in album listings. The individual track art will show in the small window at the top of the screen when playing, or the artwork panel of the mini player, or the now playing window on a device. Try it and see.

Place one order with Products from different sales orgs
Hello,
We are in CRM 7.0 EHP2 connected to ECC 6.0. We have Internet
sales/Webchannel Application.
We are rolling out Internet sales for a new country but they want the option to
place one single order with products from different sales
organizations.
Currently Customers send fax/email to customer
representative(CR) with list of products. The CR identifies and places
multiple orders if products belong to different sales orgs.
Currently customers don't have idea about sales orgs and they don't
have a clue which product belongs to which sales orgs. So, for them to
use Internet sales, we have to provide them an option to place one
order with products from different sales orgs.
I understand SAP doesn't support this. But, is there any way we can achieve this through some custom/out of the box solutions?
Thanks,
RaviHi Ravi,
Please have a below help link, it may help you to explain the role of Distribution Channel and if it fits to your requirement.

Make To Order With Credit Check.......
Dear Expert,
Could i know about Automatic Credit Check-Static and Make to Order with Credit Check...
Thanking you,hi
in simple credit check it considers only the current sales order with the value assigned to the customer
but in automatic credit check we have two types
1. Static: it compares the value assigned to the customer with the value of open sales orders + value of open delivery documents + value of open billing documents + value of billing doc's posted into accounting but for which we have not recieved the payment..
2. Dynamic : the way of calculation is the same as static but the difference is we have horizon in dynamic credit check
Example: in static all the open doc's will be considered for credit check
but in dynamic if i give the horizon as 2 months
sales orders for which the delivery date falls after two months will not be considered
similarly delivery doc's whose billing date is after 2 months will not be considered..
etc
even though its a make to order it will be processed using doc type OR
you assing the credit group to the sales doc
that is suffecient
hope this helps

EXTERNAL OPERATION in a production order with different company code plant
Hi,
in my case i am having a production order with 4 operations.
0010 milling
0020 winding
0030 cutting
0040 milling
among this opearion 0030 i want to do it in a plant which is assigned to different company code than mine.
in this case whether i should proceed with PP01 Control key with opearion plant as that plant which is lieing in diffent company code or
i should specify PP02 control key saying that plant as an external vendor for me and do PR and PO for that service .
which should i follow for my case and how cost gets updated .Hi,
For different company code, u have to specify PP02 in the routing for external vendor. In PP02 control key indicator must be set in external opn.
Before that create purchase info record.
Enter subcontract info record in routing.
after running MRP , convert the PR to PO.
Send the material by MB1B by 541 mvt
Receive the material by MIGO by 101 mvt.

Make-to-Order with Different Plant
Hi Experts,
I'd like to know how to implement business scenario of make-to-order but delivering plant (in Sales Order) is different with manufacturing plant (in Process Order). My client has material locking problem (huge batch records) so that my client wants to create new plant for delivering plant in order to minimize material locking problem. Is this scenario possible?
I have set parameter 'Share Lock' but it does not work to solve material locking problem. Batch level is set in material level.
Hope anyone can give me tricks or experience.
Best regards,

Report for planned or prodcution order for production in Alternate plants
Hai gurus,
I have two plants - X and Y
Plant x have finished goods A and B to be produced and procured from plant - Y
plant Y have finished goods C and D to be produced and procured from plant - X
The production in alternate plant concept is used in plant X for Product A and B
The production in alternate plant concept is used in Plant Y for Product C and D.
Now my requirement is how to get the report for the Purchase order raised by the
plant X for the Finished product A and B , also how to know the planned order
and production order with reference to purchase order for Finished product A and B
under plant - Y
and VIce versa for the Finished product C and B in plant X and Y
Waiting for the positive reply.
Regards,
Sekar chandThere are a few reports that you can use to display STO requisitions and orders, by supplying plant, material, or MD04 like was mentioned.
The only thing that you don't have in a report is the link to the production order. In SAP in a MTS situation there's no fixed link (pegging) between the requirement (STO) and the supply (prod Ord).
You can view the pegging dynamically, for example in MD04.

How to generate one invoice for a sales order with product returns
Hi All,
I have a sales order that has been delivered and goods issue posted. Now the customer returns some of the product and I generated a Return using VA01 - document type RE, generated a returns delivery and posted a goods return.
I need to generate an invoice that will only consider the quantities that were not returned.
I have checked the sales process pertaining to returns, but all I have found consider generating a Credit Memo.
Is there a way to generate an invoice that will only invoice the quantities that were not returned? Say I sold 10 pcs, and 2 were returned, so I want to invoice 8.
Many thanks in advance.
OscarHi Sandeep, Jyotsana, Goutham. Thank you all for your time and your replies.
What is happenning here is that there is a vendor-client relationship where there is a constant flow of purchase orders, and the orders are large.
I understand that it is standard SAP procedure, but in this case, it is not the most efficient. I have two alternatives the way I see it:
1. Post the invoices according to SAP Standard, and then the Credit Memo.
2. Reverse the Purchase Order.
There are disadvantages with both alternatives:
1. I get much more paperwork than I really need.
2. When I get the returns, the delivery, picking and goods issue have been posted, and I would have to reverse all that. Not a very good Idea I think, especially if I have a purchase order with 150 different materials and I get a return of 2 items of one material.
Again, thanks for your replies. From what you have told me I am thinking that what I'll need is to implement a User Exit or Badi.
Best Regards,

Make to order with Prod version with object depedency
I m using 2 production version. In both case BOM & Routing having object dependency. Its make to order scenario. How can I select prod version in costing as well in configuration in sales order. Because by default its taking first version for both configuration & costing.How??
And if I select second version in sales order, in prod order it should automatically take second version. How??
Thanks
varunHello Varun,
If you have two valid production versions for a part then by default system take the first available production version. You have give some selection criteria through quota arrangement.
In ck11n you have the option for selecting the vesion in the quantity structure tab so i think there will be no problem for costing.
For selection of production version in the production order you have work with planning strategy 82. Or incase of MTO (strategy 20) run MRP from MD50...your assigned production version in sales order will be planned.
If helpful rewards your points

Jacopo FrancoiseYour steps are correct -- Please see (How to Modify or Create Notifications in Different Languages? [ID 1258834.1]) for details.
For the NLS language, just type in the new language and see if you can view it properly (or save it to the database and see if you can view it from the application then).
If the language is not set properly, you would get an error as the ones addressed in these docs.
