MD04 requirements date

hi all,
i'm new to SAP and would like some intrepretation of MD04's requirement date for MRP element PrdOrd. How is this requirement date derive from (formula)? Basic finish date didn't help either. I needed this data to be downloaded into spreadsheet and appreciate if someone can let me know what tcode to use...
thanks!

Hi,
MD04 shows the stock/requirement situation (current status), because this is a
dynamic screen.
Reg. prod dates,
for Eg. if we create a finished product (Fert) from a raw material (Roh).
Suppose we give the requirement date as 10/06/07.
The foll. are the diff methods of scheduling.
1. Backward scheduling : System schedules backward from 10/06.
2.Forward scheduling: System schedules forward.
3.Current date: System takes today's date as a prod start date & schedules.
,when you run MRP for 100 nos of Fert.
a planned order is created & a pur req is created for Roh.
For Fert prodn, we have given the machine time in the routings. Assume that it take 16 hours to produce 100 pcs. (8hr/day working).
In back ward scheduling, system will schedule such that the fert prodn should start 2 days ahead of 10/06 & hence schedules the prod start as 08/06.
If the PR/PO processing ,ie delv time is one day, then PR will schedules on 07/06.
This PR is converted in PO.(hence you know the del time here.This is the result of backward scheduling.
If you use current date scheduling.
Suppose today's date is 05/06, system will schedule PR for today & Pl.order on 06/06 & after 2 days prodn will be completed.
Hope this helps.
Pl. Reward if useful.

hello,friends.
i have a component A* with lot size mb(monthly plan),plan on 01.12.2007 .
i used GR Processing time 5 days.To bring component in previous month i,e, on 26.11.207.
Now ,my problem is that due to mb lot size & GR time, the requirement/receipt date of the component is 01.12.2007 (minus GR time ).the basic finish date is 26.11.2007 .we have monthly planning & if we see in the COOIS report month wise it showing o.k.,(26.11.2007),but when we see in the MD04 the date in the requirement date is 01.12.2007 appearing that should be required 26.11.2007.How this date can be adjusted.

Hi,
I'm kind of looking for a similiar answer, I need MD04 (and subsequent customised reports) to display the 'Rescheduling at GR date' - to produce a simple extract for Procurement showing the 1-1 data rather than 1 (minus GR time) - 1.
The strange part is, this at GR date is available in Exception Message text ..... I wonder why it is not available as a seperate column....?
Any help appreciated.

Requirements to be considered as per requirement date

In MD04, I can see few reservations and some sales orders and some other demands for a material.
I want to issue material as per requirement date. I mean the older demand should be fulfilled first.
But if I run picking list for reservations, it will post all reservations. If I run sales order report, system will post material to all sales order.
I want that the requirements should be considered serially as per requirement date. If reservation date is earlier than sales order, then first reservation then sales order then may be again some reservation.
How can I do this since the reports are different ?

This has been implemented a lot of times in several projects.
The solution is to store the chosen language into the user's UME data as language attribute.
(see JavaDocs of UME)
Then you must logoff / logon the user to make the new setting active.
Do a session.invalidate() and then reload the portal page.

Requirements date for VSF "backdating" itself in two months

Please help me understand this peculiar system behavior.
MD04 routinely displays the plant/materialu2019s planned independent requirement as a u201CVSFu201D having a requirements date of the first work-day of the period. What I cannot explain is why the October 2012 VSF has a requirements date of September 21, 2012. Why would the date not be October 1, 2012? The factory calendar assigned to the plant has October 1, 2012 as a work-day.
Same situation for December 2012. The VSF for December has a requirements date of November 21, 2012.
For the rest of 2012, and for the first three months of 2013, the VSF elements are dated on the first work-day of the month. What would cause the requirements to fall a week and a half early for October and December 2012?
I should add that this peculiarity is not limited to one material. It happens over many materials and across all plants. The common thread among the materials is that we plan them into info structure S608 and then disaggregate among the active warehouses / shipping points.
By the way, I am not very fluent in MRP, so please do not assume that I have ruled out something obvious.

Well, we figured it out. The problem was the fiscal year variant.
A few years ago, we were a nine-to-five, Monday-thru Friday kind of company. As such, the accounting periods were carefully managed so that a period never ended over a weekend or on a holiday. Nowadays, we are a 24-7 operation, and accounting periods correspond to calendar months.
But when we changed over the fiscal year variant, it was only set up thru 2011. 2012 still had the old period strategy.
On the MRP3 tab of the material master record, material/plants are assigned the period indicator u201CPu201D, Period according to fiscal year variant. We forecast by periods in S608.
MRP was just doing its thing and determining requirements according to our accounting periods and setting the requirements date accordingly.
Solution: correct the fiscal year variant out for a few more years. Transport, reload the forecast data, transfer to demand management, and run MRP.
All is well in the stock/requirements list.

MD04 Transaction Data Table

Hi,
I want to know the table name for MD04 transaction data. in that transaction i am giving Material, Plant. its showing MRP values and stock. i need to know where it is storing?

Hi,
Just Use:
    CALL FUNCTION 'MD_STOCK_REQUIREMENTS_LIST_API'
    EXPORTING
PLSCN = "Planning Scenario of Long-Term Planning
    matnr = <t_marc>-matnr "Material Number
    werks = <t_marc>-werks "Plant
    inper = 'M'   "For Months
   ergbz = s_ergbz-low
BERID = "MRP Area
IMPORTING
E_MT61D =
E_MDKP =
E_CM61M =
E_MDSTA =
    TABLES
   MDPSX = t_mdps
   mdezx = t_mdez
    mdsux = t_mdsu "Summary table
    EXCEPTIONS
    material_plant_not_found = 1
    plant_not_found = 2
    OTHERS = 3.
Please it is exactly replica of MD04, so whatever is possible in MD04 e.g. setting the filter, everything is possible in this FM as it has got all the required parameters. In the above example I am retrieving the 'Summary' data monthwise.
I hope this helps,

Requirement date for PIR

Hi Everyone,
We we create PIR in MD61 by weeks, say plan qty 25 in W38, 2008, the system will automatically assign the requirement date as 2008-09-15 (Monday) in MD04.
Is it possible to change the date to the last day of the week 38... in this case, 2008-09-21..?
Thanks,
Bin

Hi,
It is not possible to set the date to the last day of the week as the requirement date.
If you want every Saturday to be your requirement day, create planning calender with the week starting day as Saturday and assign it in your material master and check up whether it suits with your requirement.

How i can get only required data from table by using CKM

Hi...
i have done one scenerio i.e get required data from one table into another table on basis of some condition by using CKM.
Now i want same,but this time my target is file ,not RDBMS.
so plz tell me procedure how i can get required data from source table into File on basis of some condition using CKM.
thanks

CKM checks for Constraints and Not Null condition. You can use IKM SQL to File and being that there is no option in IKM for CKM .
The other method is you can declare those Not null and other condition as Filter in the Source Datastore, that should filter out records that you are not willing to move to files.

Scheduling problem with delivery date in purch.req and requirement date

Dear all,
I have the problem, that the calculated delivery date in the purchase requisition does not correspond with the requiement date of the production or planned order.
I would like to use planned delivery times in the material master.
Example:
Planned delivery time: 20 days
Todays date 01.10
Case 1)
Requiement date of planned order 10.10
Case 2)
Requiement date of planned order 20.09
This situation can happen in our envirnoment, as the engineering process still continues after start of production. In this case I would like to have the following result:
Case 1)
Delivery date is 10.10 minus the goods receipt time
Case 2)
Delivery date is day of MRP or one or two days more
I made the setting that dates in the past are not allowed. This solves my first smal problem. I tried to set the scheduling margin key but these settings do not help me, as they are relevant for all materials. I need of course individual planned delivery dates per material.
So, I want to change the standart MRP procedure that in the case of the "wished requirement date" not the calculated date is beeing taken, but the "wished date". Usually you receive an exeption for this case and you would need t solve this manually. But this we dont want to do.
Can s.o. please help me? Thank you all very much, I really dont know what to do in this case.
With best regards,
Bjoern

The question cannot be answerd by SAP standart as I see. We will go through a workaround.

If you looked at the error message and searched the forum, you should find the answer as this is a problem that started in 2005. You should not run CHM files from a server and cannot without editing the users registry. See the page below.
http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/chm_mspatch/896358.htm
All along your questions have been based on webhelp, why suddenly are we going go CHMs.

Automator: Watermark PDF Documents not supplied required data?

I want to create a letterhead background on a Numbers document so I can email a Numbers document on my letterhead. I haven't found an easy answer so far until I came across the Watermark PDF Document feature in Automator. That would work perfectly, problem is, I can't get it to work at all. No matter what I have added, subtracted or rearranged I get the same results....The action "Watermark PDF Document" was not supplied with the required data. I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong. Can someone walk me through what it is suppose to look like? I want it as a printer workflow so I can just take the document I'm working on in Numbers, go to the print menu, as if I was going to "print" it in to Preview, and it will convert it to PDF then put the watermark on it. I have done lots of research to try and figure out what I am doing wrong...and I hope it's something really silly because I am getting so frustrated.
Thanks!

I couldn't find the QuickLook folder but I took a screen shot.
What I am asking for is someone to tell me what the workflow should look like.
I have tried
-Get Specified Finder Items
-Launch Application (Preveiw)
-Watermark PDF Documents
-Move Finder Items
-Rename Finder Items/Rename PDF Documents
-View Results
..and all combinations of those items. I tried Watermark PDF Documents by iteslef as a Print Plugin...it gets to Preview but there is no watermark.
No matter what I try the same result happens "The action 'Watermark PDF Documents' was not supplied with the required data."
I have tried JPEG and PNG images, several different files with different sizes, shapes and colors. I even tried the images you supplied above. It never works.
I'd love for someone to be able to make it work on their computer then tell me how they did it so I can duplicate it. If if still doesn't work for me then I'll know it's something to do with my computer.

Basic Start/Finish Date and Requirment Date in Maintenance Order

Sir,
We want to know the link between Order Start/finish date and requirement date in Maintenance Order.
As we are facing problem during change in dates.
When we change either start date or finish date in the order, the system automatically change the requirment date as of ondate of all the materials which has been earlier issued and also consider the today date.
Like in Maintenance Order
Basic Start Date - 01.04.2009
Basic End Date - 31.05.2009
We have issued materials on the order at different date by putting offset value for the requirement date.
Now if we increase the Basic End Date of order to n30.062.009 or whatelse, the system automatically changes the requirement dates of all the materials issue based on current date. Suppose we changed the Basic End date on 10.11.2009, the system changes all the requirement dates by calulating offset value from 10.11.2009. However these materials has been issued earlier.
I want to know if there is any remedy to stop to change the requirement dates automatically.
With Regards
Mudit Gupta

HI
In general the requirement date will get changed only when the IMG settings in OPU7 permits the requirments dates should be adjusted towards the order basic start and end dates
kinldy check and adjust as per the requirement

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field?

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field? I can't seem to change it from the short date format.

Hi,
I would suggest you to change the form language to English (UK), Here are the steps:-
1. Open your form in FormsCentral
2. Clik on Options tab
3. Click on Language and Formatting and check out the selection for Form Language and make sure English (U.K.) is selected and the default date format should be day/month/year.

Is it possible to change the requirement date of a component?

Hello Gurus,
When a non stock material is defined as a component of service order a requirement date is automatically determinded (RESBD-BDTER) on the current date. Does someone knows if one can be able to influence this field?
It means that I would like to be able to fill it by myself.
Kind regards
Chris

Hi Paul,
As you said "
The requirement date is calculated as follows:
1. The start date (earliest scheduled start) of the operation minus
2. The goods receipt processing time of the component and minus or plus
3. The lead time offset for the component in the order
The above values (point 2 and 3) can be adjusted to manipulate the
delivery date."
I have checked for stock & non stock item, but this calculation is not working for work orders. only i can change the date with offset. i checked material master record and change the GR processing time and planned delivery time but its not working. Do you have any idea why its not working?
Thanks.
