MRP areas and MRP controller..

In a plant if there are some 100 x materials and 100 y materials..
The requirement is when the 100x materials are planned ,The 100 y materials should not be planned(i e 100 y materials should not be considered in planning). How to map this in MRP.
I have heard that using MRP controllers or MRP areas this can be achieved.But I don know how?
If anybody cud help me in how to proceed this?

HI
This can be achieved through the user exit in MD01 based on MRP controller assing different MRP controller for X and Y material and with the help of ABAP you can use exit in MD01 and run mrp with that exit in MD01
sorry the user exit which is used in my scenario which is same as of yours is M61X0001 as Suggeste by Mr Mangalraj

MRP Areas and MRP

Hi I've created MRP areas, and expect to run MRP by MRP area, however, when I click on the drop down list beside the field MRP area in MD01 I do not get a list to select an individual MRP area. Is this right?
Thanks

Hi,
we can use Total planning(MD01) for a single plant or use scope of planning to control whether total planning is to be carried out for single plant/sevaral plant/ for one MRP Area/sevaral MRP areas/ combination of plant and MRP Areas.
Steps :
1.Group together the plants which are to be planned in spro in --->Define scope of planning.(OM0E)
2. Define the scope of planning as 999 for ex and give description.
2. Now select that and Specify the sequence in which Plants and MRP Areas are to be planned,
3.Goto new entries and enter the plant as 1000/MRP Area as 1000 with counter 1 and plant as 1100 with counter 2 and save.
4.Execute the total planning either as online job or as background job.
5.The planning run has to be always started with paralle processing.
In SPRO in define parallel processing in MRP enter the destination for parallel processing for ex your server name and enter the no .of sessions as 1 and save.
6.Tcode MD01 enter the scope of planning group and selet the parallel processing and enter. Hope the above points taken care and resolve the issue. Thanking you.

STO from MRP area to MRP area

Is it possible to confirgure the system to create stock transfer orders from one MPR area to another MRP area? I know that you can go from plant to MRP area and MRP area to plant. We would like the material shortages, found in the planning plant/mrp area to pass the STO to to procurement plant/MRP area. We want the STO at the MRP area level and not at the plant level of the procurement plant.
Thank you for your responses.

Hello
If you want to have stock transfers generated by MRP, you must assign a special procurement type. Also, make sure that, on the special procurement type customizing, you have defined the supplying plant.
If you want to have the issuing storage location determined by MRP, please read carefully the WIKI below:
Issuing storage location on stock transfers created by MRP and BAdI MD_EXT_SUP - ERP Manufacturing (PP) - SCN Wiki

MRP Area and SA Schedule Lines

Hello All,
We are looking at using MRP Areas and noticed it can not be turned off once on (ECC 5.0). Given that, is the following true with reference to schedule agreements:
- Will seperate schedule lines be created for each MRP Area (same material)?
- Does the receiving storage location come from the material master or the MRP Area (Does it matter if it is a type 01 or type 02 MRP Area)?
- Is it possible to define differen't receiving slocs in a schedule line for a Plant MRP Area?
Thank you,
Jerry

Thank you Charlie,
The link is helpful however it doesn't come straight out and answer the questions - meaning there is a bit of ambiguity there.
It would be appreciated if you or anybody that is using MRP areas with schedule agreements is doing the above.

Jerry

FG in MRP AREA and ROH comoonents are in different MRP AREA

Dear consultantas,
please i need to check this scenario with you if applicable or not:
i have ine plant 0001 and i created 2 MRP Areas 0001 (plant MRP Area) and 0002 (storage location MRP Area)
my finished product is planned in MRP Area 0001 and its components (in BOM) are planned in 0001 MRP Area.
do you think this scenario is applicable.

Hi
You can map this business process very well in the standard SAP .Only thing is you have to make sure that both the MRP area are activated for MRP and Planning file entry to be done foe those FG and componenet which are in different MRP area .You can include them in SCOPE of Planning in the configuration and run MRP in MD01.Or u can run MRP in two different MRP area as per your requirement .
Hope this will help you .

RIMODINI for CIF Object: [MRP Area Matl, MRP Areas]

Hi Experts,
We have Material maintained at MRP areas in R/3. Integration model is maintained with CIF object : [MRP Area Matl, MRP Areas] to bring the new material master at MRP Area changes through Delta mode(CFM3), but the changes to existing material in Integration model at MRP Area does not come over immediately to APO and not through DELTA mode.
We have to execute Report: RIMODINI to bring the changes of existing material master changes at MRP Area level to APO. Since its a performance intensive it takes too long to execute to bring changes over to APO.
Is there alternative method of bringing the existing material master changes at MRP area level for CIF object : [MRP Area Matl, MRP Areas] to APO without executing RIMODINI.
Additional Information: R/3: SAP_APPL     470     0030     SAPKH47030

Replenishment delivery for material with MRP areas and Avl Check

HI We have MRP area at storage location level maintained for materials. Stock exists in the plant in the storage location which is part of the MRP area.
Now when I create STO and try to create delivery for the same, system is giving message 0 stock available and not creating delivery. Material has 02 Avl Chck group.If I deactivate the MRP area in the material master, it allows creation of delivery.
How can I ensure that system creates delivery even though stocks exist in MRP area relevant sloc only in the plant?
Sriram

1) According to SAP when inbound deliveries are used and your delivery item category is set up for mvt type 101, these should be received with transaction VL32N. If you use MIGO/MB0A instead the GR status in the delivery will not be updated. If you then report on open deliveries you'll notice that nothing is received in the course of time. Amazing. Now if you set up the delivery item category without the movement type your inbound will not even be GR relevant. Just one of these things that's nice to be aware of.
Check note 199703.
may b it helps...

MRP Areas and Delivery schedules

We have managed to succesfully configure MRP areas, however we still have problems of transferring the MRP results to Scheduling Agreement. We can only set source list at plant level. Now same plant has different MRP areas. Please help.

Hi TAJUDDIN,
Let me rephrase my quiry. We have a customer that sends requirements to us, which we then send through to MRP, which gives us the nett requirements, which are then sent to the supplier.
We have been running this at plant level with no problem as the supplier was seeing all the requirements (from our customers/ subsidaries) consolidated. But now this requirements must be passed to the supplier per individual customer or subsidaries. For implementing this we created a new plant with storage Locations representing each subsidary, each subsidary has to be planned separately and handed to the supplier as individual requirements.
Hence we looked at MRP areas for this, the other option was to create each subsidary as a SAP plant but this is not neat. Our problem is that we are able to plan with MRP areas but we are unable to pass the MRP results to the agreement that we have with the supplier.
JUst though to give more infor of the full scenario might help, but in short you've been very helpful. I've learnt quite a lot.
I hope you'll still be patient with me while I try and understand as well as address the current issue we have.
Thanks.

Run MRP by MRP area - Tcode?

Experts -
How I can run MRP for MRP area? We have few MRP areas and assigned to many materials. MD01 is for plant level, I am looking for simmliar transaction (not background job) that can run MRP for MRP area.
Thanks for your time-

Hi Air,
Normally Planning of materials takes place on a plant level
By usung MRP Areas - Specific storage locations can also be grouped together and planning takes place on that grouping area (MRP Area)
Ex : Plant 3200/Sloc 50 & Plant 3200 /Sloc 51 is one MRP Area this is done in Configuration
When activated materials can now be planned per MRP area and MRP runs can also be done on MRP area
Consumption history will be kept on MRP area level
i'm also forwarding a link which would be very helpful to you

In case if this information is found helpful do please do reward
accordingly

Can PIR created at wbs element and MRP area of storage location level

Hi,
I tried to create an planned independent requirement at MRP area and WBS element level, but failed. The MRP area is not plant level, but storage location level.
*When trying to create account assignment category Q for it, then there is an error message saying:*
**only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level.**
Does it mean it is not possible to create planned independent requirement for this case?
Thanks!

Select the "Issue storage location" as '2' here:
spro -> production -> material requirement planning -> mrp groups -> overall maintenance of mrp groups -> overview -> mrp control parameters at material level -> (field) Issue storage location selection
& make sure:
1. In the BOM issue storage location is blank for the components
2. For the FG products , in mrp area prod.storage loc is maintained
3. Components are extended to the mrp area.
Pl. revert with the results

SPP and MRP Areas

Hi,
today we are doing all our ECC planning (MRP) on MRP Areas. No planning is carried out at plant level.
Is it possible to do the planning in SPP on the MRP Area locations instead of Plant locations.
We are considering where to perform our spare parts planning in the future and we are thinking of either using:
- ECC Flexible Planning
- APO Demand Planning
- SPP

Kenneth

MRP area for running a sale order MRP

Hello PP experts,
I come across a scenario where , I need to do the MRP run for sale order in a MRP area. I have checked , I can put PIR with respect to MRP AREA , but when I open MD50 screen for running MRP for sale order. I did not found the MRP AREA
field in the screen.
In short , my question is , How the sale order MRP run , system will do in a MRP
area defined for the material ?
Here , I have already defined the material is MRP AREA and also I have created
MRP area segment in the material master.
I have also configured the MRP area in SPRO.
Waiting for your reply.
Regards,

Hello ,
Thanks for reply.
I am using plant MRP area. For FERT , I am using make to order strategy 20.
I want to specify the real problem. It is like below.
Suppose 'A ' is sumassembly goes to a variant configured MTO KMAT say 'V'.
The same 'A' subassembly is a child for a make to stock FERT say ' S'.
Presently using strtegy 11 for MTS fert 'S' and 10 for the subassembly ---'A'.
Now the planner want to plan for the subassembly.
He is putting the PIR for the subassembly as sales order is not availble and he is putting the PIR for FERT 'S'.
When sales order is coming then additinal quantity planning is happening.
So I suggested to use the strategy 70 for subassembly 'A' , so the sales order (of 'V') OF quantity will be offset for the PIR of the SUBASSEMBLY 'A'.
But the consumption of PIR of 'A' will be apllicable to MTS FERT that is 'S'.
So how can we prevent the system from offsetting the dependent requiremet triggered from the PIR of 'A'.
That means the consumption (that is the usage of stategy 70) of the FERT requirement should only work for ' A' and sales order based KMAT 'V'.
The same offseting should not work for subassembly 'A' and MTS FERT 'S'.
For for Make to order KAMT 'V' , if I use MRP area and do the sales order planning in MRP area. Will I get the desired result ?
Waiting for reply.

Ravindra

Use of report RMMDDIBE for MRP area creation

Dear All
I have this requirement where i have to extend already created materials to storage location MRP areas. In SAP documentation i found that, standard report RMMDDIBE can be used for this.
If anyone has worked with this earlier, kindly let me few things abt this report
1- Exact fucntionality of this report
2. How to run this report
3. Is it a configuration or just front end report which has to be run everytime
4. can we make front end batch job
Any help on this would be great
thanks
bals

Hi Murugesan,
1. Exact fucntionality of this report
The mass create & change MRP Area data instead of manually doing via material master MRP1 view
2. How to run this report
Select the materials and plant that you want to create or change the MRP areas, then select where to copy the MRP area data from, i.e. copy from material master MRP views, copy from other MRP area data.
For example you can copy the material master data when creating, then use "create/change the data" to update some of the fields.
3. Is it a configuration or just front end report which has to be run every time
Yes, you must have configured MRP area and assigned storage locations in the IMG. RMMDDIBE is a mass master data update program, it is not configuration.
4. can we make front end batch job
No real need, this is a mass create/change program.

MRP areas with subcontracting

Hi,
Details:
1) we have BOM like A is the finished product and under A -B and C are the compnents.
2) we have created the mrp areas and assigned in the materials master for all the materials.
and created the purchasing info records as well.
B and C will be procure from from vendor1 and will supply to vendor 2.
Vendor2 will use the B and C materialsand to make the Finished material A and supplies to plant.
So i defined subcontracting for A material.
I have created the scheduling aggrement for B and C material with Vendor1 and A with vendor2.
After MRP run schedule lines are creating for B and C materials only and PRs is creating for A material in place of schedule lines.
To create the schedule lines for A material is there any config settings to be done.
My requirement is schedule lines to be created for A,B and C materials.
Suggest me how to solve run the scenerio.
Waiting for responce.
Thanks
Chindam

Hi Chindam,
Check whether you had maintained source list if so the schedule lines will be created automatically when trigger a MRP run.
