MRP and Minimum Order Recom. Batch Sizes

I would like Purchase Order recommendations to be generated (MRP) based on minimum stock levels. If the stock is below the minimum Qty, then a PO is generated, but the minimum order Qty is ignored:
Scenario:
ItemCode: ABC
Minimum Stock in WH: 40
Current Stock in WH: 22.984
Minimum Order Qty : 10
MRP Generated Recomended QTY : 17.016
As this item is purchased in lenghts of 6m's, ordering 0.016 will not be possible. We also need to order a minimum of 10.
As you can see the minimum Order Qty is ignored. The recomendation is suppose to be in batches of 10, so for this item it should have been 20.
SAP : B1 2007 A SP: 0 PL:47
Any help will be apreciated greatly

Hi,
Welcome you post on the forum.
Minimum Order in B1 only define the lowest order qty. It doesn't imply this is a minimum order unit. Try Order Multiple to get what you want.
Thanks,

  • 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.

  • MRP and purchase order delivery date

    Hello
    Question about MRP
    we would like that the MRP run takes into account purchase order with a delivery date in the future
    Say the MRP run 10th of Oct we want that all purchase orders open with a delivery date in the future takes into account the quantity that needs to be ordered TODAY
    EXAMPLE
    Minimum stock 5
    Wse stock 0
    Purchase order delivery date D+1 10
    Lead time is 5 days
    So if you run MRP the systems proposes 5 to order today but they do not want  to order 5 because there is a coming purchase order D+1 of 10
    Does anyone knows how the pruchase order of 10 is taken into account in the MRP run ?

    Unfortunately, one of the weakness of SAP MRP is if a purchase order and/or production order is late, MRP will tell you to order it again instead of expediting.
    We have overcome this and other issues with our own economical planning enhancements. If you are interested you can contact me with your contact information

  • MRP and return orders

    I need MRP takes in account the return orders created in sales. They must be considered as receipts.
    How can I do it?

    Could you explain it a little more?
    I have found the note 6062082 :
    3. Question:
    Can I activate the transfer of requirements for returns deliveries or
    returns orders and can I use it in any form?
    Answer:
    No. The ATP processes requirements (that is, entries in tables VBBE and VBBS)
    always as planned issues. There is no option to process these requirements as
    planned receipts. Consequently, returns can never be regarded as planned receipts in
    the ATP check.

  • Difference of mrp  md50 & md02  whle doing mrp and production orders

    Dear Gurus,
    Please tell me the difference of mrp md50 and md02  also the production order difference from md04 and co01
    regards,
    muralidhar.t

    Hi Murlidahr,
    MD50 - Is Planing run for Sales Order.It can run MRP upto the last Level of BOM or in SAP terminology it is SINGLE ITEM MULTI LEVEL. Planing MD02 is also Single Item Multi level but there is one big difference and that is MD50 is concider those materials also which have MRP type M0, while MD02 is not useful in case of MRP type M0.
    MD02 - Single Item Multi Level.It is used for Planing for Single Item.But it will explode the all levels of BOM and generates the Planing Proposals for all level of BOM components.
    MD04  - Stock Requirement List.
    CO01 -  Create Production Order Manually.You will find Orders (upto Teco) in MD04 also.

  • Relation between PO Qty and Minimum Lot size of material master

    I have maintained "100" in minimum lot size ( MRP1 View, table MARC and field BSTM) for the material.
    I am also succssed to create the Purchase order for 2.5 Qty for the same material. '
    I wanted to know, how system is allowig to create the PO with lesser qty or is this view is maintained only for sales?
    Please give your expert comments on the same.

    Used for claculate the procurement qty during MRP and depends on the lot size procedure you select. quota arrangement also uses this lot size.

  • 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!
    Jane

    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.

  • Process Sales Order based on minimum order

    Hi Sap gurus,
    Can any one Help me Out regarding How the System should have capability to process Sales Order based on minimum order quantity and minimum order value and How we will map In sap
    Thanks
    Points will rewards
    Regards
    Rajesh

    Hi,
    We can set the control for Min order quantity in the Sales org1 view. Like wise we can control min order value also.
    For that we have to use two condition types AMIW & AMIZ.
    AMIW is min order value, where as AMIZ is min ord surcharge
    Let's say AMIW value is 50,000.If the order value is less than 50,000 then AMIZ comes into picture.Amiz compares the automatically determined order value and AMIW value.The difference of those two values Amiz takes as surcharge and it overwrites the automatically determined order value with this value.
    Like wise we can maintain min order value also by using this two cond types.
    In the pricing procedure
                            subtotal      req   Altcal   Altcond+bv
    AMIW                D
    AMIZ                                  2         13
    Award me points if u satisfy
    Thanks,

  • Recalculation of minimum order surcharge  in invoice

    Hi  experts,
    i have activated minimum order value (MOV ) and minimum order  surcharge (MOSC) in sales order.
    Now i have conflicting scenario
    case 1 )   multiple  SO  where  MOSC  is  applicable .....they have one delivery.......and in invoice it should disappear.
    in copy control, price type used to recalculate the price...it is working perfectly all right.
    Case 2 )  one  SO ...........( beacuse of multiple schedule line )........multiple delivery multiple invoice.........here MOSC is not there in SO , so it should not re appear in invoice. 
    But with copy control settings  if recalculation taking place MOSC  is appearing.
    SO how to handle the scenario in standard sap ?
    regards
    anish

    hi sharan,
    The issue is  MOSC should only be recalulated when it is active in sales order.
    Case 1:  Customers places  many small orders  with same requested delivery date. Now in eache order MOSC would be active.
    But combining all into a single delivery and subsequent billing  should remove the value. Here recalculation of price in copy control /price type settings would  meet that requriment.
    Case 2 :  Customer places large order . Material has many schedule lines.
    So recalculatipon of price would activate MOSC which i do not want.
    Therefore i am thinking of applying a new code with the help of ABAP-er to create new price type and assign in copy control ?
    or should that be made possible  via alternate calculation type against AMIZ conditon type.
    looking for expert's opininon
    regards

  • Standard Packing Qty vs Minimum order Qty

    Dear All
    In Inforecord when I am maintaining Standard Qty and Minimum Order Qty
    system is objecting me by giving an error
    That  Minimum order qty must be less than Standard Packing Quantity can we avoid the error message
    kindly help me in maitaining the Inforecord.
    Regards
    Chaitanya

    Hi,
    This is standard system behaviour, see below extract from documentation:
    Standard Purchase Order Quantity
    Quantity of the material that is normally ordered from this vendor.
    Use
    The standard purchase order quantity serves as a basis
    for computing the effective prices in vendor evaluation.
    for determining the price if a price/quantity scale applies
    Example: standard quantity 100 pcs.
        Scale prices: 1-100 pcs. $10.00/ 101-200 pcs. $8.00
        Price determined on basis of standard quantity: $10.00
    Dependencies
    The standard quantity may not be less than the minimum order quantity.
    I fail to understand why would you have any problems with the fact that the minimum order quantity must be less than the standard quantity.
    Maybe it is because you interpret Standard order quantity as standard package quantity!

    Mario

  • Rounding value and Minimum lot size

    Hi all,
    Finish material is X and Raw material is Y.
    Bom- For Preparing Xu2019s 1 Qty, 1 Qty of Y is required 
    In Material Master of Y - Rounding value and minimum lot size is 10,
    Project needs 5Qty of X.
    When MD51 for Project execute u2026 PR of Y must be of 10 as per rounding value and minimum lot size, but it is creating PR of 5 qty.
    Above scenario working properly if I take MRP run with MD02 for material X for 10qty, after MRP PR of Y will be created for 10qty.
    With Regards,
    Ashish

    Dear,
    By default, the lot size works as lot-for-lot quantity in the make-to-order and project scenario.
    Go to OMI4 select your Lot size and define Lot Size: SOP  1 or 2Lot-for-lot with rounding. Better create new Lot size as ZX with these setting.
    If you always want lots to be created for the multiple of the rounding value, you must specify a minimum a multiple of the rounding value.
    Example: minimum lot size: 10 and rounding 10.
    Please try and come back.

  • Fixed lot size and Minimum lot size

    Dear senior,
    My client has the following scenario. His supplier provides the item in a fixed lot size of 100. The minimum lot size to be ordered is 300.
    The supplier is a fixed vendor.
    I tried to maintain this information in the Material Master MRP views. Lot size  - FX, Fixed lot size - 100, Minimum lot size - 300.
    However, everytime, the minimum lot size will get reset.
    Is there any way , I can maintain this scenario via configuration or any other method?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Fixed lot size - 100 means for every 100 quantity system will create one purchase document.
    If you selected Lot size - FX - Fixed order quantity , then no need to maintain Minimum lot size & Maximum lot size fields.
    Then you have to maintain Fixed lot size filed only.
    Ex: 
    Lot size = FX
    Fixed lot size = 100
    There is a requirement of 300. Then system will create 3 PO's with quantity of 100 each.
    If Lot size is Ex - Lot-for-lot order quantity, then only need to maintain Minimum lot size & Maximum lot size fields in the MRP 1 view.
    Ex: Lot size = EX
    Minimum lot size = 60
    Maximum lot size = 100
    There is a requirement of 250. Then system will create 3 purchase documents, two documents with the quantity of 100 and third one with the quantity of 60.
    That's why, in your case system is reseting Minimum lot size every time.
    If you want to maintain Minimum lot size, then maintain
    Lot size as EX
    Minimum lot size = 100
    Max lot size = 300
    It will solve your problem.

  • Batch size in MRP

    Dear PP experts,
    I have a requirement which I am explaining in the example below.
    Example:
    I have an FG code "FG1" with BOM batch size as 500 Kgs. having one SFG component as "SFG1" quantity = 500 Kg.
    I have BOM of the same "SFG1" with batch size as 450 Kg. having different components.
    The situation is, at SFG level by using the same quantity I get output between 450 to 500. Whatever output I get at SFG1 level,  I use it to convert to FG1.
    Now when I enter PIR in MD61 for 500 Kg of FG1, system calculates the required quantity of SFG1 = 500 Kg as per the BOM and then accrodingly creates 2 planned orders of 450 Kg at SFG1 level. Due to this the raw material quantity planning is done for 2 batches, but actually I will be producing only one batch of SFG1 and using it for FG1.
    In such cases, is it possible by some means that during MRP, system calculates the SFG1 requirement only of 450 Kgs so that only one planned order is created for the SFG1. This will prevent the additional planning of raw materia also. In short for one batch of FG1 only one planned order of SFG1 should be created.
    Pl. let me know how this can be achieved.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Prashant

    Hi,
    There's a general issue in MRP with non-linear lot sizes, like in your case.
    There are a few approaches to it:
    1) MPS before MRP; to avoid over requirements for purchased materials, you define the manufactured levels FG1 and SFG1 as MPS.
    Then in the first instance you run MPS, level production, get rid of unwanted batches, and then run MRP after you have a good stable production schedule.
    2) Plan at component level; use a planning strategy in which you plan at component level, e.g. at the purchased material level. This way you avoid the non-linear issue.
    3) Balance your production flow so you have exact multiples of batches, not like you describe 450 Kg. for SFG1 and 500 Kg. for FG1.
    4) In a MTO scenario you could also try planning with a planning material, in which case the planning material has linear BOMs.

    Mario

  • Sufficient stock but MRP create planned order and purchase requisition .

    Hi Expert,
    After MRP run planned order and purchase requisition created . but the problem is for child material sufficient is there but still PR and plnd order is created .
    MRP type PD, LOT size EX,Strategy group 10, for testing purpose I made safety stock 0, min lot size 0 , max lot size 0.
    I cant find the cause why MRP create PR and Pland order for the material which has sufficient stock. Please help.

    Dear Anirban
    could you check the following master data value:
    Lot size -> MB Monthly ( only for test)
    Rounding value -> null
    Strategy 40 MTS.
    You can try with this setting in order to figure out what is the problem.
    You can check also orizzon planning and re-scheduling (set to 999).
    Let me know if i have been useful for you

  • 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.
