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.

MRP setting for Purchase (Planned Order ) Requirement date

Dear Sir,
During the MRP run , we desire that the genertaed Planned Orders for the Purchase related items , should have requirement date as either the current date or the current date plus procurement lead time defined in the Material Master against the item .
To achive the abobe requirement , we request you to pl guide us as what setting / parameters are required to be set in the MRP setup . Or if there is some other alternate approach , pl suggest the same .
With Thanks and Rgds
Sonia Agarwal

Dear
Generally , during MRP run , system will genarted Planned order for Purcahsed item if it is opening period .
The opening period for the planned order represents the number of workdays that are subtracted from the order start date in order to determine the order opening date. This period serves as a time float, which is available for the MRP controller when converting a planned order into a purchase requisition.
You define the opening period for the planned order in Customizing for MRP in the IMG activity Define floats (scheduling margin key) and assign it to the material in the Scheduling margin key field (MRP 2 view) in the material master
Now if you want to have Planned order for purchased item with requirement date as current date , then maintain Demand date like Sales Order requirement date as curent date in VA01 or PIR date as current date.
Where as MRP will consider the Planned Order based on planned opening date , lead time , GR processing time from MRP2 view .So for current date requirement , u should keep Lead time and GR processing time as 0.

MRP run but no planned order creation

Hi ,
I use MD61 to create PIR , i can saw PIR in MD04 sceen.
Then i run MRP via MD02 there is no planned order be created.
But if i run MRP via MD43 , the planned order appear .
Could anybody can help on the topic ? Thanks !

Dear Denny Sheng
i think you are asking about two different things:
1) you have enter PIR in md61and those are reflected in md04,but when you take MRP Run( md02) planned order are not created.This is because there must be stock of material available
2) The planned order are created when you run md43.This means you have selected MRP Type MPS.please check .

Difference between snp planned order and pp/ds planned order

Hi to all,
can any one please explain the difference between snp planned order and pp/ds planned order. I am relatively new to this area

The primary differences are as below.
1. The master data for SNP Planned Order is SNP PPM/PDS where the minimum duration for an operation is a day. So it is used for rough cut capacity planning.
The master data for PPDS Planned Order is a PPDS PPM/PDS where operations are down to minute and second level. Moreover sequence dependent operation planning is possible in PPDS Planned Orders. It is for detailed capacity planning.
2. SNP Planned Orders are created in SNP while PPDS Planned Orders are created in PPDS or when transferred from ERP to APO.
3. SNP Planned Order need to be converted to a PPDS Planned Order before it can be used in the Execution System (ERP) for further processing - like conversion to Production Order. Moreover the category types of the orders are different in APO (EE for SNP and AI for PPDS).
Hope this helps.

MRP run - misalignment for planned order between Date and Production Date

Hi All,
We've just integrated SAP for a new plant.
The MRP runs based on Routing Lead Time for Make materials instead on Material Master Lead Time, for Capacity Assessment purpose.
When requirements dates lay in the past, MRP performs forward scheduling starting from current date and properly defines Production End Date according to Routing.
By checking MD04, for the proposed Planned Order, the basic date is same as Current Date (= same as Requirement Date) instead of being same as Production Date.
It works as it if checks stil the MAterial MAster LEad time instead of Routing. In fact if I updated the LT of MM the MD04 provides the right Date.
For future requirements, the MRP works properly, by having basic dates (both start and end date) aligned with Production Dates of Planned Order.
How can I do the alignment w/o updating In House Production LT?
Thanks,
D

Hi Caetano,
we have already done this configuration in OPU5 but it doesn't provide any benefit.
Below how we configured it:
Scheduling level: Via detailed scheduling
Adjust dates: adjust basic dates, adjust dep. reqmts to operation date
For capacity scheduling: Always basic dates, dep. reqmts to operation dates
Scheduling type: Backwards.

D.

What derives creation of PR and what for planned order???

experts i have a situation-pls help
I created a PM work order (IW31 ) with the
start date 01/31/2011
fin date 01/31/2011
then i offset it for -14 days (order start/ requirement date -> 01/17/2011)
i added 3 components in it with the following
RLT - 8 days
MRP type- PD
lot size- EX
after the MRP run- it created PR for all of them with creation date 12/17/2010 and release date 01/09/2011-> which is ok!
now the user added other component in the same WO with the same details on 12/22/2010-> but this time it created the planned order!!!!!
my quesiton is what is deriving it to create PR and what to create planned order???? (my requirement is to hav the planned order for the material so that i can convert the PO -> PR by nxt month close to the release date of the PR of the components- i _unnecessary dnt wants to have the PR created now!!!!!)_

Dear
A merial with Procurement Type F and having requirement (PIR , Sales Order ) , will generate PR in MRP run if you choose Create PR indicator as 1/2.But priorty should be Procurement Type in MPR2 view .Even you keep Creat Purchase Req indicator as 3 (Planned Order ) -It will generate Planned order and u can convert them to PR from MD04.
Where as a Material with Procurement Type-E will create Planned Order based on the requirement in MD02 .Here you should keep the Create PR indicator as 3.Even , if you choose Create PR indicator as 1 or 2 , you will recieve Planned Order Only which can be converted to Production Order , PR, Sub-Contracted PR etc .
Basically Procurement Type drives the Planned order and PR but Create PR indicator in MD02/MD03 gives th result based on the selection .
Test the same with a sample material with Procurement Type-E /F and play around with MD02/MD02

Background MRP Run Some times Planned orders are not generating.

Dear All,
We run MRP in the background at plant level once in a month. Some time we do not get planned order for the material in MD04. Than we run MRP (Selected material only) manually through MD01 considering MRP control parameter 13132.Than only we get planned order. Plesae let me know why it happens? Please give your comments on this.
Thanks & Regards
Kundan Kumar

Dear Kundan Kumar,
First check the output list or the results of MRP run in SM37,find out for how many materials it has
throwned out error,I hope in this list you can find out the materials.
Then the next step you have to check once again the material master settings.
Instead of running in MD02,first check whether was there any issue in master data,or if this happening
repeatedly for the same materials and work around.

MRP Controller changes in Planned order

Hi Gurus,
If anyway possible to change MRP controller in Planned order. I tried to change in MD12 but it's shows only display mode. Any answer?
Thanks,
B.Deethya

Dear,
I do not think so you can change the MRP controller any where other than material master and source list .Please check this threads which has approched similar kind of alternative solution :

MRP not rescheduling the planned order by itself

Hi,
After MRP i could see that the planned order is not present as per the date of the requriement whereas the planned order at a future date is given a Exception message 30 : Plan accordingly to schedule and proposed the date of the requirement. The requirement is beyound the replenishement lead time and hence MRP should reschedule by itself the planned order as per the date of the requirement rather than giving a exception message as above for a future dated planned order.
I am not sure what is it i am missing. Could you explain.
Thank you

Dear ,
MRP will re schedule the planned order based couple of inputs and checks during MRP run .Basically , it depends on following
In MRP exectuion you should keep : Procesisng Indicator : NETPL: The system only plans materials that have undergone a change that is relevant to the planning run within the period which you defined as the planning horizon. The system sets the net change planning horizon indicator automatically for these materials
Planning Mode : 3-Delete and Re-create Planning
It also depend on following set up and you need to analysie that :
1.Planning Time Fence : based on the PTF , there will not be any automatic changes relevent for MRP
2.MRP Type : PD , it will adoped normal planning and it will not re-schedule order proposal automatically .In you case can use P1-Automatic Firming and Re-schedule Out Of Order Proposal based planning time Fence
3.Keep your Planning Horzon more than the Highest Material Lead Time in Material Master MRP2 View
Please check and revert

Hi all.
I have installed firefox 4 and i have an issue which for start i dont know if it is supposed to be so or not.

Any news on this.
I think it has something to do with the add on : Tabgroups manager.
If i disable this add on then everything works normally.
Also when this add on is enabled my tabs are always below adress bar ,no matter what.

Custom program to insert and firm new planned order supply

Hello,
Can anyone point me to the Oracle package/procedure that is used in ASCP workbench to insert and firm a new planned order supply? Would like to call this proceudre from a custom program.
Cheers!

There is no api to insert data into a given plan but Oracle allows you to use the "Legacy Collections" to import/create various data elements (such as Reqs, PO, Planned orders etc.)
See "Legacy Collections" sections in http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E18727_01/doc.121/e13358/T309464T309470.htm#T309821
Keep in mind that this takes time to setup. So make ensure that this is the right solution before proposing it.

Automatic changing of activity start date and time of planned orders in SAP

Hello experts,
I have a requirement that in the transaction /SAPAPO/SEQ1 for the list of planned orders what ever we get in the sap we have to swap the activity start date and time for two planned orders which we select automatically. For this I have found the BADI "/SAPAPO/SEQ_VISUAL01".
Now i am able to identify the two selected planned orders inside the BADI method SEQGRID_TOOLBAR_OKCODE_HANDLE.
Now my requirement is i have to swap the start date and time for these two planned orders automatically i.e. through BAPI or any FM.
Any idea of any BAPI or FM to change the details of the planned order.
Thanks,
Sanath.

Hi Sanath,
Please check this BAPI BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3. This Bapi has the provision of chaning Planned Order & Production Order Data. Also, you can explore more info on available bapis in the T-code 'BAPI'.
Thank you,

ATP Check include in MRP and Exclude on Process order

Dear all,
We have a situation if we include reservations, deliveries and dependent requirements in ATP check in OPJJ, the system behaviour is that it includes all of them during MRP run. On process order level if we perform ATP check the system shows that all materials are available as it includes the dependent requirements and deliveries as well. we want to exclude dependent requirements and deliveries from ATP check on process order level so that it can only consider the quantities that are available in stock. and system will block the release of process order in case of short fall. as system includes dependent requirements and deliveries as well it always shows the msg that all material are available. Plz help and reply soon...... any suggestions or work arounds are always well come ..............

Hi
as i understand from ur question u dont want to considered dependent requrement and delivaries for
this go to t code OPJJ and do not select dependent requrement and delivaries tick.
after that go to t code OPJK and select material avalability as -03-No creation if material is missing
hope this will help u
regards

Using Component scrap differently in MRP and in production/process orders

Hello Gurus,
We use Component scrap in our BOMs.
MRP calculates the requirements including the scrap and that is fine. Is there a way that when we create production/process orders the components' required quantity will not include the scrap automatically? We don't want the components to be issued with the additional scrap, but rather issue the scrap by request only if required.
Thanks

Not possible.
The SAP logic is tht procurement of RM and Production & consumption has to be in line. Functionally tht is ideal

Removing the top most bar that shows Firefox logo, min/max option and 'x' to close window

How do I run Firefox with the top most bar which has the Firefox logo on left and the "minimize window", maximize" and the "X" that closes the window? (Windows 7 - 64 bits and Linux).
Thanks!

Firefox's "full screen" view does that automatically. You can use the F11 function key to enter and exit full screen mode.
By default, the tab bar and Navigation Toolbar also are hidden in full screen view. To keep those displayed, move your mouse pointer to the top of the screen and they should slide down temporarily. Right-click a blank area of the tab bar or right-click the new tab ("+") button and uncheck "Hide Toolbars". When you move your mouse away, they should stay on the screen.
Is that closer to what you're looking for?
