MRP area configure but vendor is diffrent between client
May I know if have configure MRP area before?
I faced the following problem. Hope you can help.
I configure one MRP area with MRP area type as 03 (i.e. vendor) in DEV-100
However, I cannot put in the subcon-vendor number at DEV-100 because the vendor is internal numbering and it is different between the production and devleopment.
Thus, how to put in the vendor number in DEV-100?
and How to change it in Production system on this vendor?
thanks
Tuff
Hi,
you have to do this configuration directly in production...

Hy all,
could anyone help me??
How can I make fixed sc vendor (subcontractor vendor) field in a purchase requisition created from MRP?
Is possible to make this with MRP area for subcontractor ?
Please, could you suggest me the steps to implement this ?
Thanks in advanceHi,
I talk about SC vendor , ( in my case the vendor is a subcontractor vendor ) field in purchase requisition.
I would make it fixed in the purchase requisition created from MRP without insert it and then flag sc field every time.
I think it is possible by the using of mrp area for subcontractor vendor, but i don't know the correct procedure to make this.
Thank you for your feedback. -
Hello SAP-Guruu2019s
Pls tell me the Procedure/steps/Details to maintain MRP-area for a Vendor & also for a Sub-Contractor.
Any comments welcome & Thanks in advancHi,
Pls. find the following details regarding MRP Area :
MRP Area
Definition
The MRP area represents an organizational unit for which material requirements planning is carried out independently.
Basically, there are three types of MRP area:
Plant MRP Area
The plant MRP area initially contains the plant together with all its storage locations and stock with subcontractors.
When you have defined MRP areas for storage locations and for subcontractors and you have assigned the materials, the plant MRP area is reduced by exactly this number of subcontractors and storage locations. This is because they are now to be planned separately.
MRP Areas for Storage Locations
You can define an MRP area that consists of a particular storage location, by creating an MRP area and assigning the storage location to it. Material requirements for this storage location are then planned separately from the rest of the plant.
You can also group several storage locations into one MRP area, by creating an MRP area and assigning the storage locations to it. These storage locations are then planned together.
A storage location of a plant may be assigned to only one MRP area.
MRP Areas for Subcontractors
You can also define an MRP area for each subcontractor.
A subcontractor may be assigned to only one MRP area. An MRP area of the subcontractor type may also only contain one subcontractor.
Use
You can carry out MRP specifically for the determined MRP areas. This enables you to carry out differentiated material requirements planning. The requester can be, for example, the production on a particular assembly line or a subcontract order.
The MRP area allows you to have specific control over the staging and procurement of important parts produced in-house and purchased parts for each shop floor area. You can, however, also plan the provision of components for the individual subcontractors.
MRP areas of the storage location or subcontractor type are only suitable for:
components that are planned and produced for stock
finished products that are planned and produced for stock. By assigning a storage location in a sales order or by entering an MRP area when creating the planned independent requirements, you can define whether a material is planned in the plant MRP area or in the MRP area of the storage location.
Finished products and important assemblies intended for make-to-order or engineer-to-order production are always planned in the plant MRP area.
The planning run takes into account the planning with MRP areas as follows:
If you do not enter a separate scope of planning, the system plans the whole plant, that is, all MRP areas in the plant, during the total planning run. If you want to carry out a total planning run for a particular MRP area only, you must specify the required MRP area in the scope of planning.
During single-item, multi-level planning, the system plans the selected material in the MRP area entered. In addition, the system takes into account planning file entries from other MRP areas, for example, if the material is to be procured using stock transfer.
During single-item, single-level planning, the system plans the selected material in the MRP area entered only.
Structure
You define the MRP areas in Customizing for MRP. You can thereby assign the following to an MRP area:
one or more storage locations (example: you want to carry out planning for a particular assembly line and therefore assign a production storage location to the MRP area)
a subcontractor.
You assign the various MRP areas to the materials in the material master. For this, you create an MRP area segment for a material for every MRP area, in which it is used. In this MRP area segment, you can define MRP parameters such as, for example, the lot size or MRP type. This allows you to plan the material differently in the MRP area from how you plan it in the plant MRP area.
MRP with MRP areas for the material is not activated until the material has been assigned to an MRP area. If you have not assigned a material to an MRP area, that is, you have not created an MRP area segment in the material master, the material will continue to be planned in the plant MRP area only. If you have assigned an MRP area to it, the system can plan it in the plant MRP area and in the assigned MRP area.
Integration
You can carry out material requirements planning for MRP areas using all MRP procedures and all lot-sizing procedures.
You can also carry out an independent material forecast for MRP areas using your own parameters.
The material consumption values are updated separately for each MRP area.
A separate ATP check is carried out for each MRP area.
If several storage locations belong to an MRP area, the system can also carry out a check at two levels, that is, at storage location level and at MRP area level.
Example: Subcontractor
You can also carry out planning for components to be provided in subcontracting using an MRP area by defining an MRP area for every subcontractor and assigning the components to be provided to the MRP area of the subcontractor. You therefore plan the requirements to be provided for these components for one subcontractor separately from all other requirements (see Planning for Components to be Provided in Subcontracting).
Depending on the requirements situation, the system creates either stock transfer reservations from the plant to the stock of material provided of the subcontractor or it creates purchase requisitions within subcontracting/third-party order processing, according to the special procurement key settings.
Implementing MRP Areas
Implementation Options
The main reason for you to implement MRP areas is if you would like to plan materials, which are required in different shop floor areas, storage locations or by subcontractors, separately from one another.
As soon as you have activated materials requirements planning with MRP areas, this type of MRP is active at client level, that is, MRP will be carried out in this way in all plants.
Material requirements planning with MRP areas cannot be reversed.
Process Flow
You can implement material requirements planning with MRP areas in three steps:
You convert the existing planning file entries at plant level to planning file entries at MRP area level.
During the conversion, the system creates a plant MRP area for every plant as a background job. This, however, will not affect your planning. The processes in material requirements planning and the planning results remain unaffected.
The conversion is also useful even if you do not work with MRP areas, but still have to plan for several plants, as the new planning file improves system performance during the planning run.
You activate MRP with MRP areas in Customizing for MRP. This causes the MRP area field to appear in the applications of MRP and in related areas. When you enter the plant number, the system automatically fills the field with the number of the plant MRP area. The number of the plant MRP area is the same as the plant number.
This does not affect the planning run as the plant MRP area still corresponds to the present plant.
You define an MRP area, for example, for a storage location. You then assign the materials that are to be planned for this storage location, by creating an MRP area segment in the material master.
Materials requirement planning for this storage location is then carried out separately. The storage location stock is no longer included in the available stock of the plant MRP area. The receipt and issue elements of this storage location (MRP area) are also not taken into account in the plant MRP area. They are only taken into account in the MRP area of the storage location.
If you have already worked with storage location MRP the system still carries out storage location MRP even after the activation of MRP areas. You need to decide in principle whether you want to continue using storage location MRP or whether you want to create MRP areas for the storage locations that are planned separately. It is not possible to simultaneously plan a material using storage location MRP and an MRP area for the same storage location.
If you decide to use MRP areas, you should then try to convert all storage locations that are planned separately to MRP areas in one step. Before you assign the material to an MRP area, you must remove the MRP indicator, which is located in the material master at the storage location organizational level (view MRP 4) in the screen area Storage location MRP.
Even if you have defined MRP areas in Customizing, the system plans the materials in the plant MRP area until you assign the MRP areas to the materials.
Only the assignment of one or more MRP areas to a material, by creating MRP area segments in the material master, actually cause changes in the material requirements planning.
Hope this helps.

Linking SLoc and MRP Areas in Supply Area
Hi All,
I recently moved one production line from one plant to an other one. This new line is feeded with Water from a separated tank. I would like to be able to see the requirement of water coming from the new line and stock in this tank separatelely from the "other" Water to be able to know how much water we have to supply to this separated tank.
Based on, what we are asking for is a new storage location equivalent to the separated tank (for stock and consumption) and a new MRP are (to be able to differentiate between demand).
this is the situation am going on right now, i think the above subject is what am i thinking the best solution on this situation, can anyone help me guide to work on this. thank you!Dear,
APO-DP Vs Flexible Planning in ECC. Yes APO advance but ECC is more user friendly.
The master data is managed in R/3 and transferred to APO using CIF. An issue storage location is maintained in the R/3 production version. This issue storage location is assigned to an MRP area in R/3. This MRP area is contained in the integration model (transaction CFM1). The MRP area is therefore transferred to APO. The APO plan (PPM or PDS) is created in APO in the MRP area. Using this plan, a planned order is created in the MRP area location in APO.
If you want the R/3 behavior, you must not assign the component to the model in the MRP area location. The system will then automatically switch to the plant location, that is, the system then uses the plant location as the issuing location of the component in MRP area.
Hope it will solve your problem. Also refer the OSS Note 628739 - APO 3.x Release restrictions for MRP areas

Dear SAP Guru,
hi, i have a case if anyone can help !
i have material X with MRP area R0001 (Vendor 0001) with plant A, when i run MRP .. PR exist in MRP area R0001
but when i change MRP area into R0020 (Vendor 0020) and set deletion flag MRP area R0001 (vendor 0001) and run MRP
the result not in MRP area R0020 .. but in plant level MRP area that's MRP area A
why the result not int new MRP area R0020 ? can anyone help this issue
thank you
Regards
Budhi
Edited by: A_Budhi_P on Oct 27, 2010 5:46 AMHi
For the Material X
=========================================
You have Created the new MRP AREA >>>>> R00020.
Also, you mentioned that, deletion Flag is set for the Old MRP AREA >>>>R0001
=========================================
After Creating this New MRP AREA>>>R0020,
1) Did you assigned this New MRP AREA >>.>R0020 in the Material Master (MRP1 ) for the material X ?
2)When Running the MRP,
you have to run the MRP with the MRP AREA>>.>R0020. Means, you have to enter the following
Material : x
MRP AREA : R0020
Plant : Plant Code
Then run the MRP
In this case you will get PRs, against the requirements of the Material x, For the given MRP AREA>>>R0020
Please check & revert

Gurus,
I had activated MRP area for exisitng client.
The scenario is,
Within a plant i have two MRP area. One is plant level (A) and the other one is storage location level (B)
A finished good and its components belongs to both the MRP areas. (A and B) I created a Planned Independent Requirement for finished good at storage location MRP area (B) and run MRP via MD02 for MRP area B, i got a planned order at MRP area B. But the dependent requirements for the components are created at MRP area (A) plant level.
My requirement is to get the dependent requirements at MRP area B for pegged requirements of MRP area B.
Suggestion to this isue is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
AravindHi pravin,
Thank you for the reply.
Initially my client was not activated for MRP area. So when i activated MRP area, throughout my client for each of the existing plants an MRP area is created by default. So, all the materials that belongs to the plant, by default belongs to the plant MRP area.(A)
I created one more Storage location level MRP area (B) and assigned that to MRP 1 view of the finished good and all of its components. I also created a planned independent requirement for the finished good at MRP Area B. that is i can see the requirement in MD04 screen only with the MRP area B and not in MRP area A.
Then i ran MRP for the finished thru MD02 for MRP Area B. I got a planned order in MD04 of MRP area B.
As you are aware MD04 screen is specific for particular MRP area.
This planned order is not displayed in MD04 screen of MRP Area A. But the dependent requirements for the components are not displayed in MD04 screen of B. But the dependent requirements are seen in MD04 Screen of MRP area A.
As per my understanding the dependent requirements of components should be displayed in MD04 screen of B as my pegged requirements are from MRP area B.
Kindly suggest and please let me know if any thing is not clear.

If we activate MRP Areas what are the implications on other plants.
Q:- If we activate MRP Areas what are the implications on other plants.
My Business is having many plants with different business
eg :- One Plant (1000)MRP is currently being executed at Project Level MD51
Second Plant (2000) MRP is currently being executed at Plant Level ,
Third Plant (3000) is currently being executed at materail levels only (MD02/MD03)
Issue :-
for our new scenario we need to execute MRP at MRP Area only -- Storage location MRP run
So we would have to activate MRP @ MRP area level , but doing so
You convert the existing planning file entries at plant level to planning file entries at MRP area level.
To convert the planning file entries, you use the report that you trigger in Customizing for MRP in the IMG activity Convert planning file entries for MRP areas.The system creates a new planning file and MRP areas for the existing plants. These MRP areas, however, do not affect how material requirements are planned. The number of the plant MRP area is identical to the plant number and therefore has four digits.

Can any one provide , what are the drawbacks , if activated at MRP Areas are activated , since it is activated at client level ,
Will it impact my current MRP execution process for other Plants ??( other plants MRP is being executed at Plant MRP /Project MRP / etc,,
Please Reply /Share your comments urgently
Regard's
TallhaHello Tallha
The only visible impact is that you will have an extra field on MD04 and another MRP transactions.
If you simply activate MRP areas but don't create MRP areas for the materials, your process will not change and you should be able to continue using MRP as you were using before.
There is a positive impact on the conversion of the planning file may improve the MRP general performance.

STO between plant and storage location MRP area
Dear PP/DS experts,
For some business requirements, I want to model stock trnasfer order scenario from plant to storage lacation MRP area but the system only make stock trasnfer reservation.
In my EPR system, I maintainted storage location MRP area material with special procurement 45, then the transportaion lane is created between location 1200(location type 1001) to MRP area 1300(location type 1007).
My question :
1) Is it possible to make stock transfer order scenario instead of stock transfer reservation between plant and MRP area ?
2) If possible, Is there something to do more in master data maintenance except mentioned above in ERP ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Lee, Seung WonHi,
Yes you can perform intracompany STO (Plant to plant) and STO at Storage location level at the same time,
We are using same for our client.

Change vendor in MRP area - SC Direct delivery
Hi,
I need to change the vendor in my MPR area for subcontractor. I receive the following error:
"Vendor 1234 is being used by material ZZZ, therefore cannot be changed"
The material has of course already been assigned to the MRP area as the was requered for the flow using the previous vendor.

andersHi,
Try this. First remove the vendor assigned to the material. Then assign new vendor.

MRP Area - Vendor Stock separate MRP
Dear Experts,
I would like to consult this solution. Currently we have a standard Subcon PO (MM). In this solution, we provide stocks to vendor via 543. Now, business doesnt want the vendor stocks to be included during MRP. How to set up?
Can I use MRP Area (subcon type) with this just like MRP Area for Slocs?
Appreciate your help. Thank you!I reckon the business wants to see all the stock acquired though purchase made in that MRP area. Since they seemed to concerned about planning and may want to ignore the stock ordered manually (you need to confirm this with business). You may have to create SQL query to report this.
In the table EBAN, filter out all the values the field ESTKZ = 'B' and BERID = your MRP area (if BERID is empty you need to input all the storage locations assigned to that MRP area) and the field EBELN, EBELP, BSMNG contain the purchase order data created from the purchase requisition. You need to inner join that to the purchase order table, EKPO and inner join this to table EKBE (there you can find the material document also) and out put the quantity received.

PIR' s are consuming in Stock transfer between slocs under same MRP area
We are using Sloc to Sloc with PO /delivery/asn/pgr route These SLOCS belong to same MRP area
Materials that are having strategy group 40
PIR's are conumed once PGI is done .
How to restrict this
Please throw me some lighti am not saying to stop the consumption by sales order.
try to map a different delivery type in case of such stock transfer as you explained process at your end. and for that try to wrok that way. i think you i have done misttake by saying requirement class as that comes in SO not delivery. in your case the PIR reudction is due to movement type. please movement type config in OMJJ (it might have PIR reduction active.
go thorugh not 896518
please check the movement type getting called in this GI case, and try to create a new mvmt type map this inplace of standard one with config and on that movement type remove the indicator "indepenet requirement reduction"
