Minimum Order Qty on Info Record for MRP

Hello All -
I have maintained an info record for a material with a minimum order qty. When MRP runs and generates the planned order/purchase requisition, it is not taking into account the min order qty on the PIR. Is there some additional set up that I need to do? I have a source list set up with a 1 under MRP relevant. Thanks!

I also tested and SAP didn't consider minimum order quantity that is maintained in info record (EINE-MINBM), but w/o success... minimum lot size (MARC-BSTMI) maintained in material master is considered.
I assume Charlie is right and minimum order quantity is valid in case of purchase orders:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/67/c50d38c5a5c82ee10000009b38f842/frameset.htm
You can use this function to round off order quantities in POs and contract release orders.
If you enter a minimum order quantity in the purchasing info record, the PO quantity will be rounded up to the desired minimum quantity after evaluation of the rounding profile where appropriate.
(based on this I think order optimizing is valid for POs)
So, whether you use the mentioned minimum lot size and rounding profile fields in material master (suggested by Charlie) or you can maintain rounding profile in the purchasing info record and thus you can have vendor specific minimum lot size.

Csaba

Min.order Qty from Info record in PR in MRP

Hi,
Is there any setting by which , while running MRP, system will take min.order quantity from info record (instead of material master) ?.
If not , then is there any way to achieve the same?

Hi Csaba Szommer
You are right, If you try to convent PR in to PO, and if you have maintained min.order qty in info record, you get message ( error / warning ) as per your message setting.
Your question is also valid that if the same material is being procured by many vendors, and each vendor might have different min. order qty, Hence it has to be picked from info record only.
But I have tried with all the possibilites. While converting PR into PO, based on system message you can correct the Quantity, but if MRP generates PR ,based on the min.order qty in info record, then no need to handle such messages.
You can try also, maintain different min. order qty in Material master and info record, it will always take from Material master and never from info record.
But Logically, it should take from info record.
That is why I wanted to make the system take info record min.order.qty.
So it would solve the problem if you know some setting that takes min.order.qty from info record.
( ref: I am aware of planned del. time , there is one checkbox in plant parametes, if you select that , system will take planned del.time from info record , if you don't, system will take it from material master. So if you know any such setting for min.order.qty, pls let me know. I could not find any such possibilities)
Thanks

Minimum order qty for Stock transport orders

Hello
I wonder if there is any way to make the following fields from the Sales org 1 view in the material master to apply on Stock transport orders (ME21N, with subsequent delivery created in VL10B):
Minimum order qty
Minimum delivery qty
Delivery unit
As of now in our system, it only works for Sales orders and related deliveries. But not for Stock transport orders with a supplying plant.
Also, if there is any other way to implement minimum order qty funcitonality and delivery for Stock transport orders, pls advice.
Thanks,
OT

Hello
We are in an intracompany business case. The supplying and recieving plant are in the same company.
The situation is as follows: we are planning all replenishment manually without any involvement of MRP.
What we would like to achieve is the same functionality as of the minimum order/delivery quantities material master fields in the material master.
So when the planner creates the stock transfer order, he keys in supplying plant, material and quantity manually, then the warning message about the minimum order qty should appear.
So far I have not found any way to do this. Any ideas are greatfully received.
BR,

MRP Minimum order qty not recognized

Hello together!
We found out (note 862814 ) that mrp does not manage minimum order quantities right (see below).
Version: SAP BUSINESS ONE 2007 A PL 6
Description of requirements:
Dear Madams and Sirs,
MRP Wizard yields unexpected result.
For an item having Minimum Stock 4 and having only two item in stock MRP suggests only two items for
purchase though Minimum order Qty. is 3.
From my point of view this result is wrong.
Please help us !
Wrong purchase amount of 2 items is proposed
Proposal of 3 items as Min oOrder Qty. is 3
Partner / Kundenkontakt: bob Systemlösungen
Abwicklung auf Englisch möglich? (Antwort 'Ja' vereinfacht die Bearbeitung Ihrer Meldung) Ja
Name: Daniel Rosen
Valid as of: ASAP
Business needs:
As there are hundreds of items to be ordered at the vendors, it is almost impossible to control the Minimum order Qty. Ordering non adequate quantities results in bad prices! This should be a basic function in MRP.
Examples:
For an item having Minimum Stock 4 and having only two items in stock MRP suggests only two items for
purchase though Minimum order Qty. is 3.
Current Workaround:
Laborious control of every Purchase order from MRP suggestion.
Proposed solution:
MRP should recognize Minimum order Qty. Best it could be set individually if Minimum order Qty is recognized or not.

Hi
did you define default warehouse for items?
If it is true: did you select the default warehouse for the MRP process? Did you select another warehouse?
If you select another warehouse (not default) the behavior is correct.
Kind regards.

MRP order multiple and minimum order qty

Hello
I am running MRP for one item with minimum stock level 20, in house qty 1, order multiple 12 and minimum order qty 20
the MRP return the figure 19 to order, when it should be 24 taking into account order multiple and minimum order qty...
Could you explain me why
we run SBO B1 2007 SP00 PL49

Hi,
This is the definition of your questions:
Order Multiple u2013 you can set a multiplication factor for ordering the item e.g. in
case you define 5 in this field and14 items are required, the MRP will recommend to
order 15 items (3X5=15). If 18 items are required, the recommendation will be to
order 20 items (4X5).
Minimum Order Qty u2013 you can type a minimum quantity for ordering items by the MRP.
The planning data is apply when there is a requirement (sales order, forecast, production orders (for the child item) and reserve invoice.

Purchasing Info Records for Material-qty

I have material no. base unit of measure at MM is in PC with std price in RMB,
Order unit at info record in CAR with gross price in USD.
Question:
When I did purchasing price simulation for 1 PC the calculated value is same with 2 PC
When I did purchasing price simulation for 3 PC the calculated value is same with 4 PC
why cost of 1pc is same as 2 pcs , 3 pc is same as 4pcs and so on? what is the root cause?
anyone can help

To explain:-
When you at first execute 'Price Simulation', system will calculate for
simulation quantity (based on standard quantity + base UoM).
E.g. take 5 PC
Info record price is 340 USD / CAR (which is 2000 PC for mat 1C11010937)Price of 0,17 USD is correctly calculated.
Afterwards, when you execute the 2nd step 'Simulation', it will show net value of 1,02 USD
This has following technical reason:
During price simulation, quantity (simul-mglme) will be calculated in
MENGE_UMRECHNEN_FLOAT to 0,003, this is already the rounding result
and will be taken for price determination.
5 / 2000 = 0,003 (-> should be 0,0025)
0,003 multiplied by 340 USD will show the price of 1,02 USD.
If you take 1 PC (as simulation quantity) the internal calculated
quantity is 0,001, multiplied by 340 USD will show the price of 0,34 USD
If you take 2 PC (as simulation quantity) the internal calculated
quantity is still 0,001, multiplied by 340 USD will still show the price of 0,34 USD
This behavior is directly related to large conversion factors and very
low prices for 1 PC (price e.g. less than 0,5 USD / 1 PC)

Conditions for each Order unit in Info record

Hi all
If I have an info record with the base UoM as NOS and Order Unit as EA, can I have different conditions for NOS and EA for the same info record? If yes, How should I create them?
Regards
Madhu

Hi
I think this help documentation is saying that you can maintain multiple ordering unit and can define condition for each of those different multiple ordering units.
You can't maintain condition for base unit of measure once you have ordering unit is different than the base unit of measure.
For example,
In info record you can give PB00 value and give the price and then in unit, you can maintain multiple ordering units. Depending on your ordering unit in PO, the price is picked up relevant to that ordering unit from info record. Similarly, you can maintain multiple conditions with different ordering untit by defining price per such different ordering units.

Delivery time calculation from purchase info records in MRP

Hi experts.
I am using MRP -manual reorder point planning . I have maintain the delivery lead time as 10 days . This material has a info-record for a vendor and a contract also. we maintain the delivery time for the supplier is 20 days in the info records. And a source list is also maintain for this material with reference to the contract and assigned as MRP relevant.
We run MRP of this material and create the PR directly.
we run ME59N for automatic creation of PO also.
what I see is the delivery time defined in the PR is consider as 10 days from the material master MRP view. But when we convert the PR to PO the delivery time is updated from the inforecord. but the delivery date in the PO line item is not update. It is showing the same delivery date as PR.
Is it possible to update the delivery date bas eon the info record when we convert from PR to PO automatically?
regards
DP

I don't know the answer to your question, but can point you in another direction; you can set the system up in such a way that already MRP (as per the way you have described that you work) will take into consideration the planned delivery from the Info record/Contract:
In transaction OPPQ check the "Scheduling: Info Rec/Agreement" box!
This will make MRP take the planned delivery time from the IR or Agreement, whenever the source (vendor) is identified during the MRP run.

Purchase info record for material groups

Hi all,
We have purchase info records for material groups, not material specific. When I create and activate integration model for these info records, no info record is sent to APO. Is there a way to create Transportaiton Lanes automatically in APO?
Regards,
Jenny

Hi,
In APOPurchase info record is transfered as external procurement relationship.
Generally Transportation lanes are created automatically for plant to plant transfer when you define special procurement key in MRP view of material master accordingly.
In case of T. lane for vendor, automatic generation may not work. Still you may try using correct special procurement key + material specific vendor info record..
Thanks,

Info records for service

How to maintain info record for service items? Can it be updated from quotation?
Alok

Hi Alok,
You can create purchasing info records for different procurement types (standard, subcontracting, pipeline, consignment).
You can create purchasing info records:
1. For a material with a material master record, you need the number of the material master record.
2. For a material without a material master record, the following information is required:
Material short text (short description)
Order unit
Material group
Sort term (key), for finding the info record once it has been created
Go through the link, it will be helpful:

Different order units in info records

Hi, I need to have different order units for different Plants in Info Records. I find this field only at general level. How can I solve this problem? Can anyone help me? Thanks. Marí

When you create the info you are creating for plant so you can enter different order unit in diff info as per the plant you select but suppose if you want to maintain more thna one order unit in the same info then you have to activate the variable order unit funcitonlity
to do that go to material masater purchiasing view and enter the 1 0r 2 based on you reqs
1- active
2- active with own price (means in the info record for all the order unit you can maintain the price
then maintain the diff order unit in mateirl master
within mateirl master Additionl data-unit of measure here you can enter
now when you go to info record you will see the variable orderunit filed is populate on general data screen if not populate and then populate.
if 2 is entered then when you click conditio it will popup for pricing
