MRP - Assigned RFQ

Hi All,
I have a material suppose 'x'.
There is one RFQ already created for this material.
Now based on the daily MRP run, it creates a PR for this material and automatically deletes the req on the same day.
I checked the stock, it is 1.
Safety stock is 1.
No reorder point for this material.
MRP type is PD.
There is no demand for this material.
Are RFQs consider as demand?
Why it created PR and deleted it?
Please advice.
Thanks.

PS,
An RFQ can be configured to create MRP requirements or not. Generally, they are not relevant for MRP. You can check for sure by opening the RFQ in VA23N. Select the item of interest, select the procurement tab. Look for a schedule line that contains a confirmed quantity. If there is a requirements type there in this row, then it is probably relevant for MRP. If the confirmed schedule does not contain a requirements type, then no.
You haven't spoken about the Planning strategy, but for most strategies, the symptoms you are describing will not happen.
In your scenario, MRP would create a purchase req for 1, provided no purchase reqs already existed. Otherwise, it would create none.
It is possible that you are running MRP (MD01 or similar) with the "Planning mode" set to "3", delete and recreate. In this case, MRP will first delete all un-firmed proposals (such as existing purchase reqs), and then will create a new PuReq.
MRP does not 'wait around' to delete a PR. If your PR is being deleted "on the same day" (implying AFTER the original MRP run), then something or someone else is doing this.

Process order should not take part in MRP run

Hello Colleagues
I looking for a way how to exclude not released process orders (we have PP-PI) from MD04 report. Not released process order should not take part in MRP run. I was trying to do it using OPJJ for availability check 02 and checking rule PP but I was not able to get result. Could you please help, probably there are other settings?
Best Regards
Eduard

Hi,
Settings in OPJJ will take effect only when you create or release process orders.
As a work around you can try to exclude process order is
1. Create a Storage location and make it not relevant for MRP-OMIR
2. In Material master for the material in MRP assign storage location MRP as 1 (exclude storage location stock)
3. Create the process order, in the GR tab enter the storage location (not MRP relevant)
In the MRP run it will not take the process order into account.
After releasing change the storage location to the normal sotrage location.
In this process flow, the control is with the storage location.
Check it in your sandbox.
Thanks,

Source of supply not populating in MRP generated PR for contract

When I run MRP, it creates the PR, BUT, it doesn't assigned source of supply automatically.I can assigned it manually by clicking "Assign source of supply"
Why can the MRP assign it automatically, even i maintained source list with contract number. I don't have any other vendor assigned for this material in the source list
Can you please help? Here are my setting:
Material masteru2022
      Procurement type = F
u2022     Source list indicator is checked
Source List
08/02/11 To 12/31/11 vendor xxxx   Porg xxx    Agmt xxxxxxx    Fix (Checked)     MRP = 1
**Contractu2022**
Document type MK (Quantity contract)
       Agreement date 8/4/11 validity End 12/31/11

delete yor requisition and try it and run MRP again today. I cant see anything wrong in your contract and source list settings.
I remember even one case where we deleted the source list and created it again with the same entries and then it worked.

Contract and release orders

Hi guys,
I know that by maintaining a source list, we can generate schedule lines for a scheduling agreement through MRP run.
Our requirement is that, release orders are to be created through MRP run, if any contract exists for that material. If no contract exists for that material, MRP run should trigger purchase requisitions.
is it possible?
if yes, what is the configuratin required for this?
anybody can help me out?

Hi,
MRP Run will look at Source list for creating schedule lines if u maintain creation indiactor as 3 (create schedule lines) against a vendor
in ur case of Contracts
maintain this indicator as 2 (relevent to MRP)
assign Contract No. & line item against the row (vendor)
system will create PR assigned with contract no. and if u conver this to PO , a contract release order is created
if u are not asigning any contract in source list system will create PR with vendor assigned
no config required for this
only correct assignments in source list are enough
hope this helps

WRP1 and planned orders

Hi, we have SAP Retail and we have installed a plant which manufacture some products. At this point we have configured all the production process with recipes and all the stuff related however we have experienced some troubles. We have discovered that if we create materials with MM01/MM02 we could not modify them with MM42, we have also discovered that the materials saved with MM01 cannot be replenished using WRP1. Our produced articles are FERT, ROH and HALB and what we plan to do is to run the MRP with WRP1 and generate planned orders that will be converted in production orders.
We run the WRP1 but SAP is generating us purchase requisitions but we would like this transaction to produce planned orders. Or if its posible, transform this purchase requisition in production order, which as I read it doesn't seem posible. I tried to generate a PO document with this purchase requisition and it generates a Framework purchase order (FO) and I don't know what that is.
The overall strategy is to configure with MM41/MM42 the supply source of the stores as 'Stock transfer' (2) and set procurement type 'F' so WRP1 generates purchase requisitions that eventually will be transformed as stock transfer orders which the vendor/supplier is going to be our distribution center. The DC is the place we are mounting the in-house production.
Our supplying plant has procurement type 'X' or 'E' but with this one we want WRP1 to generate planned or production orders with the replenishment requirement that includes all the requirements from the stores, so when we have all the production we could supply articles for the stores.
Is this the right approach? What should we do in this situation?
Thanks in advance
PS. We do not plan to use the MD01, MD03 or MDBT for MRP.

Assign checking group in material master
Define checking rule
Define scope of check.Scope of check is to include what type of stock/Receipts/Reqmts are to be considered during ATP
Define checking control(Here you check the availability either at order creation or Release for plant/order type)
Based on the above settings when ATP is carried out,Missing parts list is determined for the order.
For planned orders additionally we can have the check against planned independent requirements. Here system only checks the dependent requirement quantities against the open planned independent requirements created for the components.Therefore, neither the ATP quantity nor the receipts or stocks are included in this availability check

Change planned order - MD12

Hi,
What is the function of 'assign version' from the list of 'edit' in MD12 - change planned order.
Is there a way to change the BOM revision level assigned by MRP run?
Currently MRP assign the most recent revision level to a planned order, and I would like to be able to change it to a previsious revision level.
Thanks
Lin-Lin Li

Hi,
"Assign Version" is like the reading Master data in Planned Order.
Now try this. in your Pl. Order Change Screen, slect Master data Tab pag.
Then try the "Assign Version", your BOM details in the lowerpart of the screen vanishes.
You will get the message saying "Explosion data has changed, please re-explode" if you confirm this by Pressing Enter.
Then the BOM details dat will go off and you can select another PV.
Otherwise directly you can change the PV in the entry screen itself.
Hope this helps..

ATP Rule for Planned Orders

Hi Experts,
I have configured the ATP rule for Planned Orders. So I only want to check the component stock and Production Orders when running ATP check for the Parent Material.
In OPJJ, I only selected the following options.
Include Safety Stock : Ticked
Check without RLT : Ticked
Incl.production orders : X (Take all production Orders into account)
No other options or boxes have been selected
Also I have included the relevant Checking group in MRP 3 for the Parent Material (Checking Rule has been assigned to that Checking Group in Config) and also maintain the Plant Parameters for MRP (assign the checking rule to the plant)
So, For an example :
Parent : A
Components : B and C
Parent Material A has only 5 Planned Orders starting on same day 20.05.2014 each qty 5
Components B got stock 300
Components C got stock 1
When I ran ATP Check for the Parent material A using COHV, qty 1 has been allocated to all the planned orders as committed. Why is this happening ?
I also checked in CO09 for the Component Material C, and it says ATP Qty is only 1. I expected the system would allocate that stock 1 to one of the Orders but it seems to be not working as I expect.
Any explanations will be much appreciated and will not hesitate to avoid the points.
Kind regards,
Ishara

Hi DB49,
Appreciate your reply. Please see the following comments.
Right now I have been assuming that you have performed an availability check manually for one of the planned orders, and you got the same results (overconfirmation). Please confirm.
Yeah I have performed for one order and it gave me the same result. Also, when I perform for the 2nd Order, it allocates the quantity.
OK, basic things you should already have checked:
You have maintained the checking rule for planned orders (OPPQ or OPPR)
You have maintained the ATP group for the materials (OVZ2)
You have assigned the ATP group to the Material Master of the components (MM02)
You have maintained the scope of check according to the rules you mentioned earlier (OPPJ).
You have no planning strategy in the component material that would have invoked a special ATP.
I checked everything apart from point 2 (OVZ2). I have maintained that via MRP Group and that MRP Group has been linked to Master Data (MRP 3)
Really appreciate your support in this.
Kind regards,
Ishara

Reg : Quota Arrangement

Hi Gurus,
I have made the settings for Quota arrangement.
I have used 3 Vendors and made the settings in Quota arrangement.
When i am creating the Purchase requisition, the system is suggesting 3 Vendor names.The particular vendor name is not getting selected Automatically. I have to select that Manually.
Please advice what setting needs to be done for making them getting picked up automatically as per the Quota settings.
With Regards,
Saakithyan

Quota arrangement is used for PRs created during MRP. System considers the quota arrangement while creating PR during MRP & assigns the source to the vendor from quota arrangement as per the quota calculation. If the lot size allows splitting of quantity then the PRs with split are generated on the sources as per quota arrangement.
The Quota Arrangement is not at all considered for Manually Generated PRs

MRP Req assigned to RFQ

Are RFQs consider as demand?
Why it created PR and deleted it?
Please advice.

Hi
You can run MRP for MRP controller using User Exit Key available in TCOde MD01.
You have to define the user exit keys and make use of the same. ( in SPRO you can do that )

Issue in assigning new Planning Calendar for MRP.

Hello Experts
I have trouble in setting up new Planning calendar for S&OP and MRP process. Let me explain in details
Requirement is, currently I am using standard country specific Factory calendar format (monthly period) per plant. But new requirement has came up and Company wants to change beginning and end of period (monthly) -- as shown below
Current Calendar
1 July to 31 July = period 1 - 2014
1 Aug to 31 Aug = Period 2 - 2014
and so on..
New requirement is ( Last week of Friday is end of Period)
Sat 28 June to Fri 25 July = Period 1 - 2014
Sat 26 July to Fri 29 Aug = Period 2 - 2014
Sat 30 Aug to Fri 3 Oct = Period 3 - 2014
and so on..
(basic concept is to keep
4wk, 5wk, 5wk for Quarter 1
4wk, 4wk, 5wk for Quarter 2. and so on.. )
I have setup new planning calendar in MD25..
ie. min period, start of period not a working day, Calculation rule & Period etc...
then assigned new planning calendar in MM02 - MRP2 and also in MRP1 used Lot size PK... etc..
But when i Put demand in MC88.. which gives us std month format and transfer to DM, then Ran MRP but some how MRP is not creating correct Qty in planned demand as per new calender..
i.e.. 1 July to 31 July = period 1 - 2014 if total demand Qty for Material XYZ is : 50
I am expecting planned demand result in MRP as... Sat 28 June to Fri 25 July = Period 1 - 2014 - should be 50 in total.. but It's not..
Any reason? Or I am missing some settings?
Thank you in advance..
PC...

Thanks KK/Umesh
Business wants planning calendar in this format. And Fiscal Year Variant has also been set according to new calendar.
KK, Regarding MC88 there is no option to incorporate planning calendar into S&OP process. And Organisation's S&OP process is set from day one (Planning by ProdGrp/Material) so MD61 would not be a good option to use.
Umesh, regarding "start of period not a working day", I have selected "do not displace". And 27/09 and 27/12 dates are set holiday. The major issue here is: Not every 4th Sat of month is Period start day, MRP is picking new planning calendar (defined in above table) from the system But some how when transferring forecast data from planning table to demand management (MC88), system don't recognize new planning calendar and it distributes demand over weekly bucket per regular month Calendar instead of new planning calendar..
Some how I need to incorporate new planning calendar into S&OP setup somewhere, Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Vendor not assigned to PR when doing a MRP run

I am doing an MRP run for creating purchase requistions
However the vendor is not getting assigned to the PR.
I have the vendor defined in the source list (made it fixed) and also created info record.
However when i run the MRP the PR is created but the vendor is not assigned to the PR.
Also how can create the PO automatically from the MRP ?
Also where can i see the time frame setting for Processing PR to PO?
Thanks

Dears,
I'm faced to the same kind of problem...
The process is an inter-company PR.
The MRP of our plant creates PR for the other plant, these PR are type "MFS" (because of customizing with the tcode OPPR, in order to manage MRP group in the material sheet MRP1)
We have maintained the info-record and the source list, and the extra-purchasing view of the vendor (the plant we send the PR).
When we launch the MRP, the systems creates the PR and we get them in the dynamical status of stock (tcode MD04). In this list, the vendor well appears on the rigth of the screen. So, it seems that the source list is well managed
BUT, when we have a look into the PR (tcode ME53N), the vendor doesn't appear in the source list sheet. :-((
Please, tell me what could be the reason of this stange fact ? (the field is not invisble customized...)
FYI, we get the same result with material without MRP group, and PR type NB
Thanks for your support,
BR,
Tony

Stock transport order between storage locations and assignment category type E not in MRP

Hello Gurus,
I have a stock transport order between 2 storage location which belongs to the same plant. Besides the stock transport order is allocated to a sales order (account assigment category E). When I run the MD03, the system take into account the quantity of the stock transport order as a future entry and this is wrong. I need that the MRP has not into account the stock transport order as an entry.
As an important information, If I modify the stock transport order removing the account asignment category E (sales order), then the MRP doesn't take into account it, so this is correct.
Could anybody tell me how to get it?
Thanks in advanced.

Laura,
It is normal that MRP will consider an STO as a receipt element; this is basic planning. It is unclear to me why you think you do not want it to do so, but I will assume you have some logical reason.
Contrary to what some others may have suggested, changing the scope of check for availability checking has no effect on which elements are considered for MRP. MRP is a completely separate functionality from Availability Check.
For Location > Location STOs (within a plant), then, you normally have the receipt element of the STO in the destination storage location, and the requirements element of an equal amount in the source storage location. Net of these two elements is zero, unless you have already issued the STO at the source location.
Changing the Account assignment from "E" means that the STO will not be relevant for your Sales order (in other words, when you receive this STO into the destination storage location, it cannot be used for your sales order). In a general MTO scenario, it also means that the proceeds of this STO (the stock you received) cannot be used for ANY sales orders.
One way that some people make an STO 'not relevant' for MRP is to alter the destination storage location such that it is not relevant for MRP. You can change the MRP relevancy of the storage location in MM02 > MRP4 tab

Account assignment defaulting to U after MRP run in Purchse requisitons

hello,
i have got one ticket
the material is non valuated (UNBW)- when MRP is run - purchase requisitions are getting generated as having default acount assignment category "U". This is creating problem in automatic creation of PO as U category is not accepted in PO.
can somebody tell me from where is this acct assignme getting defaulted? is ti config or setting in material master

thanks Saravan,
i checked in OPPQ- MRP paramers for plant- clikced on external procuremetn for certain plat
accout assignment cateoy for non valuated is U:
i have given 10 points.
i was having one more question-
if you have answer i will open new thread so that u can reply in that i will assign u marks there!1
in MD04- available qty column- is getting cumulated for certain scenarios and for certain it is not
can you tell me from where it is controlled
