Maxi stock level

Hi all
How we can calclutate the manimum stock level for the materials tht we maintained in the mateial master mrp 1.
oh which basic we can calculate the maxi stocklevel. is this is system maitnain automatically.
2. what is mean by Takt Time in material master mrp 1 . pls explain me. how we can use this .

You use the lot-sizing procedure Replenishment up to maximum stock level if you want to fill the stock up to the highest possible level or if you can only store a certain quantity of a material due to the container size. This applies to a tank, for example. The capacity of the tank determines the maximum stock level.
Takt time (Used in fixed lot size with splitting & overlapping) - You can determine whether a fixed or period lot size is divided into partial quantities and that these are to be produced at regular intervals that overlap each other.
This lot-sizing procedure is very useful if the actual requirement quantities that occur in the period or the quantity to be produced for a certain date are very large but production is only laid out for smaller quantities.
In fixed lot size with splitting & overlapping you have to maintain the Takt time field for the period of time that the procurement proposals are to overlap.
Hope its clear.

Use of max stock level w/o lot size HB

hello champs..
need a help on below functionality
Can I have the functionlity of max stock level without using "lot size - HB" in material master.
my requirement..tht system should not create any procurement proposal if stock reachs at max level..
but with this i am using min lot size also..and this functionality got vanish if I use "lot size=HB" ..system dont see min or max lot size..it just create the proc proposal for the qty upto max stock level..
my requirement
for a material max stock level -100
min lot size - 50 , max lot size 80
and if my stock is 30 ,and my reuirement is for 80..system should not cross the max stock level and should create the prc proposal for 70 only..
pl share your thoughts on this..I'll appriciate wih necessary reward points..

Max stock level and reorder point for all the materials

Dear experts,
Is there any standard mm report that will give the details of max stock level and reorder point details for all the materials?
Thanks in advance,

Your requirement can be pulled from table MARC. I dont think there is a standard report to meet your requirement. You can meet your requirement through SAP Query though.

Replenishment upto max. stock level during SNP heuristics run.

Hi Experts,
As per the requirement from client, we need to configure the setting of replenishment upto max. stock level during SNP heuristics run.
I am using below settings in R/3 for achieving the expected results.
(R/3 ) MRP1 u2013
Lot size                       HB               Replenish to maximum stock level
Maximum stock level      20,000
(APO) Targ.Stk Lvl Methd   5 u2013 in APO u2013 product master -   lot size tab.
Still, after heuristics run, the requisitions are getting created equals to forecast value. It should get generated as max. stock level maintained.
Could anyone share their experience regarding this? Am I missing some additional setting?
Inputs are highly appreciated!
rgds/Jay

Dear Jayprakash ,
If the requirement is that you have to replenish upto a certain stock level then instead of maintaining the Max Stock level you can simply maintain
SB : Safety stock from product master
and in the Safety stock field maintain the quantity as desired ( in this case 20000 ) . This probably will solve the problem in your case . You may not require to maintain Max stock level .
Target stock level in heuristics also works fine with the following settings
make sure you maintain
Target stock level method as =5
In Maximum Stock level = maintain the quantity desired ( 20000 in your case say )
do not maintain any safety stock method keep it blank .
then location heuristics generates PR according to the the maximum stock level.
If still it is not working plz let me know what other settings you are maintaining probably we will find a way out .
Hope it helps .
Thanks

Max stock level as safety stock from material master while running SNP Heuristic

Hi Experts,
Our user wants to consider max stock level as safety stock from material master while running SNP Heuristic, not the actual safety stock.
Is there any possibility for this setup?
--Kishore

Hi Kishore,
With the given details I suggest that the user can maintain the max stock level values directly in safety stock field of the material master for all materials to be planned by SNP heuristic (keeping the max stock level field blank). Then this safety stock field (which has actually the max stock level values) will update the safety stock values in APO product master and in turn can be considered for SNP heuristic.
Note: The max stock level field in APO product master is used by SNP heuristic only when the target stock level method is maintained as 4, 5 or 6. Since your requirement is to use max stock level as safety stock, so it does not look like that you will be using these target stock level methods or the max stock level field in R/3 and APO. So, this can be left as blank in both R/3 and APO.
Please let me know if this helps.

Vb type in house production with controls on Max stock level, considering -

Dear friends,
Please think of possible solution to map the follwing scenario,
my client having vb tpe scenario for in house mfg product, As the it reaches to re-order level it generates planned order ,
eg mrp type -vb, reorder point-200 ,min lot size -150 and max lot size 500,
and Max stock level - 1500 and his lotsize -EX,
here after creation of planned order he wants a control , that when it is converted to process order , in change mode , he should able to change the order qty in such way that , it Need to consider open process orders and Available Stock
(Unrestricted & Quality) also in same Plant
e.g. Max Stock Lvl is 500 Unrestricted Stock 100 Quality Stock 50 open
ProcOrder is 200. If user trying to change ProcOrd 250 it should allow
to change ProcOrdr of 150 only.
please sugeest how to set the controls.

Hi Dhar,
In av. check scope (OPJJ), include the stocks which you wish to consider eg: quality insp. stock etc in addition to unrestricted stock. The system will then create planned orders only for the needed items.
If user tries to change the qty of the order to more than required, MD04 will show an exception message. Hope this meets your need.
If helpful award points

Report from system on different stock levels-min, max stock levels

hI gURUS,
Is there any Standard Report from SAP system to see on different stock levels-minIMUM stock, maximum stock levels

Hi,
MMBE will not give stock level min and max that is maintained in material master MRP view. I think you need to make a z report for th same or may be through query.

Max Stock & Good Receipt Time with Optimizer

Hello,
We are attempting to use the optimizer to maintain a max stock level (Max Stock = 750 ) constraint at a location. We are also using a Good Receipt time (Good Receipt = 1 day) for this location/product. Currently when we execute the optimizer (discrete) the system is exceeding our max stock value we have maintained in the product master because of the Goods Receipt Time.
For example on 09/15 we have an on hand quantity of 200 units. On 09/16 we have demand for 200 units, bringing our on hand quantity to 0 units. On 09/17 we have a receipt of 950 units to fulfill the demand of 200 units and bring our stock up to maximum level, resulting in a stock on hand quantity of 750 units for this day, which is our maximum stock level for each day.
However, the receipt of 950 units on 09/17 is in reality received at the location on 09/16, because only one-day transport time is defined. Utilization of Goods Receipt Time is causing us to go over our max stock of 750 units defined. Any ideas how to resolve this issue?
Thanks

I would assume max stock level to be a softer constraint compared with meeting the demand on time. Can you confirm what would have happened had you received 950 units one day later, say by decreasing the GR days to 0 ? If the receipt date were pushed out without violating the max the stock level, I would conclude the max soft level to be a soft constraint.
Also check the result when GR time is 2 days.
I would also experiment with keeping inital stock on hand beyond the max stock level and watch it fall below max stock level before calling any receipts.

IS-Retail: Site stock levels in Store and DC

Hi Friends,
I have created a site 1200. I maintained the same as DC in WB01 and created article and in Logistics:DC view and maintained stock level like reorder point, max stock , etc.
If I have to extend the same article to another DC and I want to maintain stock levels for site (DC) separately, how to do this ?
How to create the same site 1200 as Store for maintaining Logistic:Store view. I tried to create in WB01 and it says site already exists. In the list of store, 1200 is not appearing.
Can the stock levels be different or same for DC and Store for a site?
Please help.
Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
Two types of sites are used in SAP Retail:
a)Distribution Centers that store and prepare merchandise for
other sites or customers-Profile 0100 Category -B
b)Stores which present merchandise and sell it to consumers
Profile -0110/0120 Category -A
Only One Reference Site will be created each for Distribution
Center and Store. In Reference Site no stocks will be
maintained .
Stocks will be maintained individually for DC and Stores.
For e.g Create Ref DC 1000 and use it in WB01 for your New
DC 1001 so that all common data wil be copied . Same applies to Stores. Ref Store 2000 and use it for New Store 2001.
Hope this helps you.

Restrict PO based on the maximum stock level qty in MMR

Hi
We have maintained Maximum Stock level in MRP1 in Material Master. Is there any facility which can restrict the Purchaser, not to raise any PO more than maximum stock level qty which is maintained in Material Master ??? how to do ?
Is there any user exit or warning mesge settings?
Edited by: Jayakumar Raju A.S on Jan 13, 2010 8:55 AM

If you want do such check then you have to do that in a userexit.
I am personally the opinion that a purchaser does not extend the PO quantity just for fun. Maybe he gets a better price if he procures a little more. It is probably a lack of training and knowledge about each others work, that a buyer does not understand what the maximum stock level is , and the planner may not understand the particular issues a buyer deals with daily.
Bring those two together an let they explain each other the reason for the maximum stock level and the reason why the order quantities are changed. Maybe they will finally change the maximum stock level, maybe the buyer will not change the quantities anmore without discussing it first with the planner......

Customer consignment stock- REPORTING stock level & goods depatched

Hi all
I'm looking for a report (or reports) which shows the following (bare in mind that this will all be customer consignment stock):
- the delivery numbers
- the previous month's stock level
- the quantity of goods despatched the following month with a rolling calculation
- monthly invoice values
- remaining stock levels (after current months goods have been issued and invoiced)
I'm aware that MMBE/ MB58 shows the current stock levels, however I'm hoping there is a report in SE16 which shows it as a report structure.
I understand that this is a lot of info requested by myself however any information would be appreciated.
Thanks
/ Vicky

Dear tortyv,
As per my understanding of the requirement,
You please check the "VL06" report if it satisfies your requirement you enter the execution parameters and execute.
System will give the list of out bound deliveries. Select one of those and click the details icon (ctrlshiftf3) according to the item view or headder view.
If it does't suit you have to go for z report.
I f you want that please provide the input fields in order to fetch the required data for the report.
Thanks&Regards

HOW TO DEFINE THE LOT SIZE THAT CONSIDERS MAX STOCK AND IN FIXED LOT

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement where the client wants to procure the material in fixed lots of 125. they are using manual reorder point VB with reorder point of 100. The maximum allowed stock is 400.
When the MRP runs they want to generate a PR that is close to 400 and also a multiple of 125. I tried to use FX and it is only generating procurement proposal for 125. When I use HB it is considering the max stock but not generating the proposal in multiples of 125. Can anyone help me out with this.
Regards

Hi,
I think your problem could be solved by using rounding profile but not using
fixed lotsize.
In rounding profile you have to give threshold value and rounding value
For the threshold value 1------- Rounding value 125
            threshold value 126------Rounding value 250
            threshold value 251-------Rounding value 375
            threshold value 376 -
Rounding value 400

Goods Issue to increase the stock levels in a plant

Folks,
I am not a MM guy and I am trying to increase the stock levels in a plant using a Goods issue.
1.     Can I do the Goods Issues without reference to a Purchase Order? If so, how can I do this
2.     What are the relevant movement types when GI is made w/o reference to a Purchase Order?
3.     Can GI be made with reference to any other entity/object other than PO?
Thanks

1. Can I do the Goods Issues without reference to a Purchase Order? If so, how can I do this
No u can't ..u have to do Goods receipt for a PO
Raise a PO for the same material and do GR
2. What are the relevant movement types when GI is made w/o reference to a Purchase Order?
u cant do GI for PO
3. Can GI be made with reference to any other entity/object other than PO?
GI aganist cost centre, production order, reservations ....
the easier way to bring in stock of a material is to do intial entry thru MB1C with mvt type 561.
