Min & Max level

Hi
My client insist on the maintenance Min & Max level at storage location, however i can not maitain in standard MM.
If i develop a separate application for maintaing Min & Max level what will be the effects on MIGO when i do Issue or Receipts.
In this senario i will have to develop an additional check on every Movement of Materials (Issue & Receipts).
Kindly help me out.
Regards
Muhammad Tahir

Hi Tahir ,
As said by you . the requirement cannot be fulfilled in MM.
You may try at BIN level provided WM is implemented in your Org.
As a storage location may consists of different materials with different stock units ( Min and Max levels will again differ ) , i doubt your req may not be fulfilled .

Hi Ravi,
Field level authorizations are not available in SAP.
You can only set authorizzation based on Item Master data.
Hope this will help.

MRP min max reorder level changes

Hi All,
I wonder if anyone could please help.
We are experiencing some issues with the setting of min/max levels for material masters. Does anyone know how I could get a change log to show changes to the material master MRP settings?
Thank you
Chris

Hi Chris,
   You can see change log for material master through TCode MM04.
On the MM04 screen you can enter the selection parameters - Material / Plant / Sales Organization / Distribution Channel, Warehouse Number / Storage Type etc.,
   If you have a specific SAP userid whom you think might have done the change then you can enter in the Changed by Field.
   Then click on Execute button.
   In the next screen, select required line and click on details button to see the Old value and the new value data.
Hope this helps.
With Best Regards,

Want to set Min Max for a material for PD MRP type

Hi,
I know Maximum stock level field in Material master MRP 2 view ? but where do i maintain minimum stock level? not procured?
My client wants to set up his inventory with Min Max levels using MRP PD?
Thanks and Apprecaites help.
Regards,
Siva

Hi,
If you want to maintain a Max and Min stock level, Maximum stock is shown straight away, you cannot find the Minimum field directly.
if you want to use MRP type PD then go for safety stock that will be your minimum stock level
or else use Re-order point planning, re-order point will be your minimum and Max-level as maximum.
Thanks

Can we use MRP to plan for FERT in-house produced with PIR's & has Min/Max

Hi SAP Guru's
I have a very critical issue from the client who wants to use MIN/ MAX stock values for planning its finished products (in-house produced)
here is the details of the scenario
Client recieves 2 Excel files every week from customer
1st file contains the Weekly Demand Forecast of FERT material for next 1 year and they upload it in MD61 as PIR's BUT this value is also Inclusive of Safety stock value (ex: if weekly demand entered in MD61 as PIR is 50 and if safety stock value is 10, then actual demand is only 40)
2nd file send contains only safety stock values (for ex in this case let it = 10) to be maintained for the FERT materials
the client wants MRP to plan and trigger based on this PIR's in MD61 and Safety stock level fand plan for FERT, HALB and also ROH materials as defined in the BOM also taking into consideration the current WIP levels (Work in progress for any existing production orders currently being processed) based on the production Lead times values maintained
so what the client wants is they want to maintain 2 stock values, that is one least stock value and other higher value which if stock falls below this point, will trigger production based on the lead time and considering any WIP levels also
(for ex in this case if PIR = 50 and safety stock is 10, MRP run result client wants is = 30 and NOT =40)
so here are my questions
1. is this scenario feasible? use safety stock and min/max level for in-house produced finished which has demand PIRs in MD61 at the same time?
2. Also due to SOX complaince regulations, the client does not want to change the forecast values in MD61, so is it possible to make some settings so that forecast is corrected by WIThOUT including the safety stock value in it? ( for ex: in this case as = 40 only and NOt as 50)
3. which all settings should i maintain like for MRP type or lot size or stock qty levels or anyother customizations if any required so that when we run MRP, can it ignore the safety stock value and generate the client desired output?
thank u verymuch for your time & expert advice in advance

Hi Chakri,
This is not possible as per standard functionality. MRP always creates proposals for the shortage quantity of the safety stock. We have used the user exit in the plant level MRP run to exclude both plant and safety stock in the net requirements calculation.
You have to write logic to convert the safety stock into plant stock in the user exit so there will be no additional procurement proposals...you can create custom indicatar in materail master or linked any existing indicator like MRP group to the user exits so the MRP will checks this and will not create proposals for the selected parts.
If you have any questions then please inform.

Min Max Planning not reading Flow Schedules as Demand

We use min max planning to order all recurring purchases and flow schedules for production planning.
Min max planning report does NOT see flow schedules as a source of demand. Is this correct or are we missing a setup somewhere?
If min max planning cannot read flow schedules, is there a standard report to identify component shortages where items are between min max level but not enough on hand to fulfill the open flow schedule?

Check the user and employee tht you have used to launch the conc prog...

Min/max MRP and double star planned order

Hi,
What does setting up materials for min/max mean ? Is it just some concept r does it involve some specific settings in the material master ? I know there are minimum and maximum lot sizing procedures available. Are these to be taken into account to set materials up for min/max ?
What does a planned order with two stars in the MD04 screen mean?
Thanks

Dear,
Single *** means order is Firmed and **** means Capacity planning has been done for the planned order.
There is "storage location" MRP with min max levels.
Have a look at the fields on the MRP screens in the material master and you will see the settings you can choose from.
There should be no need for any config as long as your basic MRP config is there.
The normal MRP run will then try to maintain the correct stock level in that storage location and you use the special procurement keys on the material master to determine where the stock should come from to replenish that storage location.
Go to TcodeOMIA here you will find min max for your plant.

Production supply area w/Min Max

Hello,
I have a WM scenario that i want to prototype, and i would like to know the steps involved in this WM scenario.
The scenario is :
Production Area Supply w/ Min Max
Illustrate the material replenishment to the PSA based on min/max levels for raw materials and intermediates; Min level based on requirements for 2 production runs, Max level based on requirements for 3 production runs.
the material for the replenishment is taken from the storage types.
pl. do mention the steps or how to carry out the scenario with the t codes involved in it.
Thanks,
Maxx

I suggest you checking system by two ways:
1) Set PSA to work center, now it works? If so please check BOM settings carefully.
2) Don't use dynamic production bin, just try a physical bin. If it works please check control cycle settings.
Note: You create the dynamic storage bin "production order" in the control cycle for pick parts. The system then stages all the materials for a specific production order in a dynamic storage bin with this production order number.
When you system emit errors again please use LS24 to check if having a dynamic bin with a production order number.

Reorder Planning vs Min Max planning

Hi,
In what business scenarios should we use:
Reorder planning (ROP)
Min Max Planning?
We are implementing INV/PO for a bank where mostly expense items should be used. Also no manufacturing modules are used.
So which planning will be recommended and why?
Also, if re-order planning is suggested, share the set ups (with screen shots), as to how to set up & get the Requisition qty.
Thanks,

Hi,
Reorder planning is like two bin system. When one bin is empty, the demand is fulfilled from the second bin while the replenishment order is generated for the first one. Reorder Planning uses Oracle Inventory forecasting information to calculate average demand.
In min max planning, we maintain 2 levels, minimum and maximum. When the stock goes below the minimum level, the Requisition is created for the Qty =Max level - Qty already in PO/Req - On Hand.
However, option is available while running min-max to include or not include Qty alrady in PO/Req.
In min-max, the min-max levels have to be maintained manually and the demand forecast is not taken into account.
Hope this answers the question.

Pivot view - how to find min & max on a level lower than selected..

Hi all,
we have a pivot view having structure.
Year
Dept |Count| Min | MAX |
ABC | 87 | | |
XYZ | 44 | | |
Can we find out the min & max in the current year selected on quarter level & not on year and no show quarter on report. I.e the min count & max value of count in the 4 quarters.
also for below structure.
Year
| Q1 | Q2 | Q3 | Q4 |
Dept |Count| Min | MAX |Count| Min | MAX |Count| Min |MAX | Count| Min | MAX|
ABC | | | | | | | | | | | | |
XYZ | | | | | | | | | | | | |
similarly find on quarter & for quarter we want the min & max on month level. i.e minimum & max in 3 months under that quarter.
If we set the aggregation level as Min in max in pivot itself it shows the min & max same as the count as it calculates on the year level.
Thanks,
Dev

Using hierarchies with exception aggregation can give strange results when aggregating to the parent nodes of the hierarchy. Recommendations:
1) check whether the results are still wrong if you deactivate the hierarchy view
2) build you exception aggregations globally. That is, do not define the exception aggregation in the structure of your query. Build it as a CKF on your InfoProvider.
3) if the above steps don't work, perhaps you can use APD or get the exception aggregations calculated in the load to the InfoProvider rather than in BEx

Min-Max to create WIP

Hi All,
I need help on the following -
I am running Min-Max planning to create WIP jobs. I want to -
1: Default WIP Start Date to Current Date. Currently WIP completion date is defaulted to current date. This causes WIP Start Date in Past Due which is unacceptable.
2: The WIP jobs are created with status 'Released'. I want this to be defaulted to 'Unreleased'.
Appreciate help on this.
Regards,
Yash
Edited by: Yash on Feb 10, 2012 2:23 PM

Hi Sandeep,
What I found out is the profile option 'INV: Minmax Reorder Approval' governs the status.
Now we have given resolution to set this at user level.
1: Purchase Planner will have this set to 'Pre Approved'
2: WIP Planner will have this set to 'Incomplete'

Min-Max Planning Generating Purchase Requisitions

We have been using min-max planning for a while and scheduling the min-max planning report (planning level: organization) to run every evening to generate a purchase requisition. Of late we have some items that are showing a reorder quantity but not generating a purchase requisition. We have verified the set up of those items against items that are generating a requisition and can't see a difference. What are the possible causes of items not generating a requisition when using min-max planning?
Thank you!

Make sure Item Settup has the "List price" Given.
Source is set to " Supplier"
When you are running the Min-Max Report, it should have the Parameter "ReStock" to "Yes".
Since the records has to come from the Inventory to the Purchasing Module there is possibility that Records might be there in Interface tables. Run the "requisition Import" program and see if it address your issue.
Thanks and regards,
Phani

Min-Max Planning concept

Hi Neils,
Can you please throw a light on --> Min-Max Planning Concept and what is the formula for Min-Max
regds
MRR

Hi MRR,
Min-max planning is used to maintain inventory levels for all of your items or selected items. With min-max planning, you specify minimum and maximum inventory levels for your items. When the inventory level for an item (on-hand quantities plus quantities on order) drops below the minimum, Oracle Inventory suggests a new purchase requisition, internal requisition, move order, or job to bring the balance back up to the maximum.
See the Inventory Users Guide > Planning and Replenishment > Min-Max Planning for more detailed description of the principles behind. In addition to Min-Max you may want to consider Reorder Point Planning where you bring demand figures into the calculations.
If you would like to have sales orders or production demands on end-item or sub-assembly levels influence the planning of components then a type of MRP is needed to break down a product structure to lower level material requirements. For even more advanced planning where capacities, constraints and may be even different optimizations objectives are to be considered you have to look at the Advanced Plannning Suite of applications.
Hope this helps ypu in the right direction.

Min-max report

Hi,
I have place a order for a item. Ordered quantity is 10. Order is closed. But when I run min-max report; i found that on-hand quantity is not change and also the demamd quantity 10 is not reflecting. It is showing some different number 8, i.e item demand quantity = 8. Please guide me Why it is so and how to overcome this issue?
Also let me know the base table for this records.
Thanks

Hi Srini,
Just look at "INV: Minmax Reorder Approval" profile option whether it helps you. You might have set this profile option to "Approved". Change the setting to "Incomplete" either at "Site" or "Responsibility (In which you run the min max planning report) " level.
This would help you to create the min max requisitions in "Incomplete" status and then ask the requestors (or your store incharges) to review and approve the Purchase Requisitions!
Regarding "Supply" consideration, I will check and let you know..

Hi,
One more thing you have to verify for IR-ISO at Item level.
Verify 'Internal Ordeded' attribute is checked in Order Management tab or not.
Please check out following link for more details .
