MRP - Auto creation of del schedule lines based on planned delivery time

Hi,
We have activated MRP (type PD) where Purchase requiesition is auto created by system for requirement quantity. We require to optimize delivery schedule in such a way that entire PR quantity is broken into various delivery schedule based on planned delivery time and requirement.  Scenario can be further explained with following example.
Material Requirement for a month is say 1,25,000 units
Closing Stock say 25,000 units
PR Generated by system for 1,00,000 units. The entire quantity is schdulled with only one delivery schedule line as per planned delivery time. 
The requirement is to generate multiple delivery schedule lines automatically in Purchase requisition based on planned delivery time so that Purchase orders can be placed with system generated delivery schedule lines.
How can it be achieved ?
Regards,
Nirav Kinkhabwala

Nirav,
This subject has been discussed repeatedly in this and other forums.  I must assume that you overlooked the rules of engagement, which state that you should first search the forums and other public sites, before posting questions here.
Standard SAP MRP cannot be made to generate multiple items in a Purchase requisition.  The functionality you seek is usually achieved when converting purchase reqs to Purchase orders, where many single purchase reqs can be adopted into a single Purchase order.
You also might want to investigate use of Vendor Scheduling agreements.

  • Req date for an activity based on planned delivery time of component

    Hi Experts
    I wish to create activities for purchase and install an equipment.
    The procurement activity is assigned with the component.
    the planned delivery time is specifed (ex: 100 days)
    Based on this value, can i get calculated the requirement date for the activity (Ex: today+100days) in stead of manual specification of date for the corresponding activity?
    warm regards

    Hi Ahmed
    Thanks for your response. This seems to be good feature.
    However, i could not get the date corrected for my activity after applying this function.
    I have created an activity with normal duration 1day. For the same activity, i have assigned a compnent which has 100days planned del time.
    Then i have used 'Transfer Del time --> duration'. But no change.
    Could you suggest me right approach?

  • Schedule Agreement - Planned delivery time

    Can you still use planned delivery time when using Scheduling Agreements?  Or does this field need to be set to 0 for the delivery lines to get created properly when using JIT/FRC schedules?  If we cannot use Planned delivery time, is there another field that can be used to hold the Vendors lead time.  We want to take this into consideration when determining the end date of the Scheduling Agreement.

    Hi,
    the planned delivery time field on the material master is designed to be used when it cannot find the correct data from the info record. It should always contain the planned delivery time that should be applied if the vendor is not specified.
    the same field on the info record should contain the planned delivery period for the appropriate vendor.
    This field does not have to be 0 if you are using JIT etc.

  • Scheduling Agreement Schedule Lines firmed after outbound delivery

    Dear All,
    We use scheduling agreement for cross-company process in our client.  After MRP run schedule lines created automatically. For the next step outbound delivery is created via VL10F (or VL10B).
    After outbound delivery creation, on MD04 or ME39, i see the schedule line firmed (*). Because firmig MRP doesn't change those schedule lines. This is a problem for our client.
    Do you know a way for MRP can change the schedule lines even outbound delivery created ? How can i manage this situation ?
    Best regards,

    Hi Anil
    The '*' that you see means that the schedule line has been changed manually and the Firming indicator (EKET-FIXKZ) is set when there is any change to the Schedule line.
    So, when a Delivery is created, the schedule line should be 'Fixed'.
    Otheriwse, MRP can delete or change this schedule line and it would cause an inconsistency in the system. This is the logically intended behaviour.
    Please see the F1 help for the field EKET-FIXKZ:
    "Schedule Line is "Fixed"
    Fixes the schedule line and determines that it cannot now be automatically changed as a result of materials planning and control/MRP activities.
    Procedure
    The indicator is set automatically if:
    .- You make manual changes to a line of a scheduling agreement delivery schedule that was created via the materials planning process
    .- You create a schedule line manually
    Dependencies
    You can specify whether Materials Planning/MRP can change delivery schedule lines within the firm and trade-off zones in the additional data for the scheduling agreement item."
    I hope this helps.

  • Planned delivery time in Scheduling agreement and MRP

    Hello,
    Do you know is it possible to determine system so that MRP run will consider the planned delivery time from the scheduling agreement line instead of material master? Now the system read planned delivery time from material master when creating schedule lines automatically by MRP-run.
    Regards, jaana

    This can be customized in
    SAP Customizing Implementation Guide
    -> Production
    --> Material Requirements Planning
    ---> Planning
    > Procurement Proposals
    > Define External Procurement
    Here you can select the indicator "Scheduling according to purchasing info record or agreement" either at plant or MRP group level.

  • Schedule line date vs actual delivery date

    Hi All,
    Is there any standard report or work around available to compare customers schedule line date vs actual delivery date
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Abir,
    I think your talking about a "On time Delivery report" to track actual delivery against the quoted delivery.
    There is no standard report available in SAP for this.
    This is hard to track if you have maintained multiple schedule lines for a one single line item.
    (Where you maintain multiple delivery dates in schedule line level to quote  multiple delivery dates. If you have maintained multiple line items to quote multiple delivery dates, this would have been easy)
    Because you do your delivery based on your sales order line item. Not based on your schedule lines. Therefore in your delivery line item table (LIPS) you cannot see Schedule line number. Therefore you cannot compare quoted delivery against actual delivery date.
    Assuming you have maintained your multiple delivery dates in Schedule line level, this is how you have to proceed.
    - Use VL10E transaction to create delivery against schedule lines.
    - Create append structure in the LIPS table to accommodate to carry the schedule line item of sales order in each delivery document + Line Item combination.
    - Use this user-exit u2013include  MV50AFZ1. Can save the particular sales order schedule line in the LIPS, earlier created append structure field.
    Then you have the schedule line number available in the LIPS table, Now you can code your report to capture quoted delivery against actual delivery date.
    Hope this helps you !

  • Planned Delivery time not considered after MRP run for scheduling

    Dear All,
    After running MRP, the planned delivery time maintained in Purchase info record is not taken into consideration for calculating start date of the schedule line of externally procured material generated by the system.
    Planned delivery time is 3 days & Requirement of parent material falls on 15/02/2010. With this, system should calculate the start date for schedule line as on 12/02/2010 considering 3 days Planned Delivery time.
    Any idea as to what might have gone wrong?
    thx for your help in advance.
    Rgds,
    Ranjeet

    Hi,
    Determination of PLD from the Purchase info record is maintained in transaction code:OMDT. Planned Delivery time is also maintained in Scheduling agreement. However, it is not calculating delivery date as well as release date.

  • Regarding Schedule line category for Reverse delivery

    Can any one pls let me know what will be the schedule line category for reverse delivery after cancellation of invoice?

    FYI-
            reversal of delivery only reverse the stock & accounting doc's. To do this seperate mov type is used which is linked with the actual Goods issue mov type i.e. 601 ( ref: Tx-OMJJ)
    for every mov type there is reversal mov type is assigned to reverse the transaction.
    for reversal no schedule line category is required.

  • Is planned delivery time is considered in scheduling agreement ????

    Hi experts
    problem is that the schedule lines (for external procurement) generated from MRP are not taking the "" Planned delivery time into consideration"". System is only taking the G.R processing time.
    I have mentioned the Planned delivery time in .
    1) Scheduling agreement for 1 day.
    2) In material master for one day.
    3) In info record 1 day.
    e.g Suppose req date is 13.07.2008. MRP run date 4.07.2008.
    a) Planned delivery time = 1 day . B) G .R processing time = 3 days.
    Now when i run the MRP on 4.07.2008.
    Schedule line is generated on - 10.07.2008
    Please Guide . How i can take care of that time which is requiered at vendor ends.
    Regards
    Rahul Bhardwaj

    Go to OPPQ for that plant
    Click on "External Procurement " tab and check if you have maintained any planned delivery time?
    Tick indicator " Scheduling info record/agreement " (This will take Planned del time specified in scheduling info rec or agreement)

  • How planned delivery time effects delivery creation?

    Dear All,
    Some time before, while placing order thro' CRM, we came across a typical error (hard error).
    "date (11/12/2011) lies afterthe end of validity calendar". 
    we could not place order in CRM but in SAP we could create save the order despite of same error but soft. However system didn't allow to create delivery for same order & same error message populated"
    Later it was found that it is because for material  " Planned Deliv. Time  maintained for say "X "days in material master MRP2 view" & was corrected.
    How planned delivery time effects delivery creation?
    For material even though planned delivery time was maintained as say for 500 days, sales order requested delivery date & delivery date in order schedule line got determined as order date (Considering avaliability of funds & material).
    i.e order date/req. delivery date/delivery date in schedule line are same as date on which order is placed.

  • Planned Delivery time in case of Scheduling Agreement

    Hi All,
    Does system consider the planned delivery time in case of Scheduling Agreement for Vendor like in normal Purchase order and requisition?
    I am doing the MRP run, but system is taken planned delivery time into consideration. I have one material that is Inhouse produced material for plant X and Y Plant needs this material for further making of a finished goods.
    Y plant have scheduling agreement for STO from plant X. After MRP Run required Delivery date in plant X for Material is same as plant Y. but from Plant X to Y, it take 4 days to reach. So Ideally in Plant X this delivery date should be less than 4 days as plant Y.
    Please look into the issue and reply if you have some answers.
    Thanks
    Pavan

    Hope you have maintained different Planned Delivery times in plant X and Plant Y as per your requirement. For procurement in Plant Y the system would consider the planned delievry time maintained in Plant Y. If you want in-house production time to be considered with Basis date sheduling during MRP run in PLant X then enter the in-house production time approprietely. Else if ou want to consider the exact routing times then consider Lead time scheduling in plant X.
    If the above are maintained properly then you should get the desired result.

  • Consider planned delivery time field in MRP Areas

    Hi,
    I would like to know if the "Consider Planned Delivery Time" field in the MRP areas is taken into the scheduling of materials during MRP run? From the help documentation, it seems to be yes. Otherwise the system will take the Planned Delivery Time from the Plant level. May I ask how we can tick this field for all materials? We are currently in the process of activating the MRP areas in our system. Before, we didn't use the MRP areas but we think the need for it has arrived. Is there a mass maintenance tool to do this? Or do I have to use LSMW? Thanks!
    Regards,
    Chester

    Hello Chester
    If you flag the field "consider planned delivery time" the planned delivery time defined on the MRP area will be considered by MRP. You should tick it for all the materials if the value from the MRP area should be considered.
    Also, the report RMMDDIBE can be used for mass processing of MRP areas.

  • Simoultaneous planned delivery time (MRP)

    Dear Experts,
    I would like to set my MRP for material purchases in order that I can have 2 different lead times, depending on the route (air/sea)
    For instance, if MRP can supply enough material with 1kg or less, then it should take a shorter lead time for it would be air freight than if the minimum necessary was more than 1 kg. (Actual freight lead times= air 60 days, sea 90 days)
    Best regards
    Marco Aramini

    Hello Marco
    It is possible to have different lead times for different vendors on MRP.
    On the customizing transaction OPPQ, choose the option "external procurement" and make sure that the flag "scheduling: info rec agreement" is set.
    With this setting, the planned delivery time is read from the info record or from the scheduling agreement.
    After that, you should create a quota arrangement for both vendors (see note 1508647 for details).
    On the quota arrangement, you can use the minimum and maximum size to define that the source will only be selected if the lot size is higher than 1KG or smaller than 1 kg.
    If have a more complex logic to select the vendor, you can use BAdI MD_MODIFY_SOURCE.

  • Creation of SNP PDS using planned delivery time

    Dear Experts,
    How do i control creation of PDS because of operaion generated from planned delivery time,although planed delivery ime is zero.
    the scenario is as follows:
    Material :XXXXX
    Planned Delivery time
    Procurement Type:E
    Plant:XXXX
    in transaction /sapapo/curto_simu: there are two PDS displayed with PDS usage as PDS for Supply Network Planning(SNP)
    the first one is because of operation generated fromm planned delivery time,output qty is the same a s that maintained as base qty in BOM and mode is blank,activity field is even blank.
    the other PDS is created because of the valid production version in R/3.
    Thanks in advance
    Amrish

    Hi Dutta,
    Thanx for a quick revert.
    Yes we are using reciepe and we have a valid PDS being generated because of Production Version.
    The problem lies with the creation of other PDS from planned delivery time whereinplanned delivery time is zero.I want a resolution so as the system doesnot create thses PDS which are invalid in nature.
    These invalid PDS are hamperring result out of SNp optimizer for the reason these are considered in the input log of optimizer.
