MRP configuration Settting for MTO & MTS

Hi Experts,
I have a scenario.When we are running MRP for MTS,It should not consider the sales order so ,what are all the configuration settings should maintain to get result.
For MTO, sales orders should be considered.so what are all configuration settings have to maintain.
In this scenario, same Materials we are taking for MTS & MTO.
Flow chart,for your reference.
Plz guide me.
Thanks & Regards,
Bhargavi.

Hi Bharghavi,
In case of MTS, if you do not want to consider sales orders then you can use strategy 10 or 11....settings in the material master MRP3 view as shown below.....
In case of MTO use planning strategy 20 and make settings as shown below.....
as these are standard planning strategies no need to make any configuration....If you want to use both planning strategies for same material then check the link posted by Mr. Caetano
Using two planning strategies for the same material

MRP in Background for MTOs

Hi All,
I have two types of strategy groups MTO and MTS. But i need the background JOB for MTOs only. I have done the settings in MDBT (Variant) and SM36 (Setting up of Background Job). But the system is running the background job for MTS and MTO also.
I only need the background job for MTOs only not for MTS materials. As i have checked bu8t unable to find a link to set the background job only for MTOs.
How can I do this?
Please advice me for the same.

Suresh,
You can activate user exit for MRP run. Once the user exit is activated you need to define the user exit key in SPRO as what that key is(In this case Planning strategy), and in the user exit you can ask the ABAP person to select materials based on the user exit key which should be MARC-(strategy group-field name).
Now you can create a variant with user exit key and value "20"- for MTO. with this the MRP would be run for only materials which have planning strategy 20.

FOR MTO & MTS scenario when the Production order shows the Sysy status DLV?

Hi ALL,
In the MTO & MTS scenario when the Production order system status become DLV ?
Regards
Satish

Hi Satish,
For both the planning strategies (MTO/MTS)..
The status of the production order becomes DLV ,
when you do GR for the order with 101 movement type.
(OR)
At the time of final confirmation if automatic goods receipt is activated.

Re: MTS to MTO+MTS

Dear Expert,
we are currenlty using MTS scenario & now plannig for MTO + MTS scenario. For fert level we will do MTO & Semifinish, raw material level will do MTS scenario.
can any one tell how to map this scenario/any configuration changes ?
which plannig strategies are need to be used in material master?
i have tested with Planning stratgies 20 but it is not generating accounting document, so please help me.
Regards,
Ishwar J

Dear Ishwar,
1.First check whether planning strategy 50 will be suitable your business requirement,here PIR's will be entered at FERT
material level and all the planned orders for the dependent requirements can be converted and produced and kept in stock ,but
for the final product alone only after recieving a sales order its planned order can be converted into production order.
The system generates a planned order which is convertable.
2.In this case if this not suitable check with planning strategy 40.
3.If this is not suitable means create a strategy group by combining one make to stock and one make to order planning strategy
and check the output.

Re: MTO & MTS for same product

Hi Experts,
How to configure both MTO & MTS for a same product.
Regards,
Vivek

Hi Experts,
I am having a requirment for MTO Subcontracting order.The customer issues raw material for the production for the FG product. Now I want that the system should do the Planning for the FG by MRP & also to calculate the the raw material required. The system should also be able to created purchase requisition for the deficit raw material. The raw material should not have any financial implication i.e. they are are only relevent for stock posting & not for any valuation purpose.
Here my client is the subcontractor. So he does production for Other clients as well.
Please advise.

Material Issue for both MTO & MTS

Dear Guru's
I have to do REM Backflush for a MTO scenario.
The corresponding raw material are available in stock which was not purchased over a period of time.
When I try to do post with correction the system is not allowing me to do the posting, the system is giving error as sales order item is not available.
Can anyone help me consumming the raw material available in the stock .
Is there any settings to be done to consume the material which is available in the stock for bothe MTO & MTS.
Kindly do the needful.
Helping hands will be appreciated with good points.
Thanks & Regards,
Arul.

Hi Arul
Please check the below in your DEV server.
If you put the Individual/coll indicator to 2 in MRP 4 view in material master the raw materials can be taken from unrestricted use stock while back flushing.
Or
IN MB1B you can use mvmt type 412E to convert unrestricted use stock to sales order stock.
SO u can do the backflushing after the conversion.

How to configure wokflow for MRP generated & manually created PR

Dear Gurus,
I have to customize SAP workflow for releasing Purchase requisitions. I will be using enhancement M06B0001 for my own role resolution.
I have some questions regarding workflow
1) How to configure workflow for MRP generated & manually created PR?What are the steps? what are the limitations in doing so?
2) Since we are facing the problem of insufficient user license ,How to send notifications to NON SAP users?(We have thought of creating a Z table for the same)
Looking forward to your reply,
Thanks in advance,
Best regards
Tushar
SAP MM Consultant

Dear Mike,
Thanks for your reply, & sorry for not responding on time.
Here are my constraints:
1) Not a single component of HR module will be implemented.(Project management decision:-()
2) Number of user licenses are less, considering the workflow users.(Hence we have thought of creating Z table for employee nos. & EMAIL IDs ,& this table will be accessed by using M06B0001 user exit.(It is still in development phase. Truely speaking, dont know whether it will work or not).If this works out ,then I believe, record from SU01 will not be used (Please correct me here).
3)We have 2 instances on development server.(in short,2 separate installations on same server by creating additional instance). What are the implications of this particular system landscape on workflow? Whether workflow will work or not??:-(, :-(.
The reason I asked you 3rd question is , As soon as 2 nd instance was created on development server, Short Dumps are coming while running transactions of Workflow builder.(SWDD & PFTC).It is giving error" Table is unknown or does not exist". Description of error says"The current program"SAPLSWF3 had to be terminated because one of the statements could not be executed."
"An SAP Open SQL Statement contains a table that does not exist in the database or is not listed in the ABAP Data dictionary.The Table is "SWF_WFPDSC" or another table is accessed in the statement.
Program=SAPLSWF3
Include=LSWF3U05
Row=22
Module name=SWF_WFP_REPOSITORY_CONTENT_GET
The same dump is coming while accessing SWF_WFPVW table from SE16.
Request to Mike & all of you, help me in this regard.

What is Discrete Mfg and MTO,MTS

Hi Gurus,
Can any one tell What is discrete mfg. And what is MTO and MTS in Discrete Mfg.
Thanks
Kevin

Discrete Manufacturing pertains to industry which frequently switches the manufactured products for eg: Speciality Electrical products, Heavy engineering products(Pressure vessels, Fermentors etc), Computer assembly etc. So every product you make in discrete manufacturing industry will have different components, work centers, routings etc. This is in contrast to repetitive / process industry where the product configuration and process remain fairly constant over a period of time.
MTO (Make to Order):
In make-to-order production (strategy 20), every sales order is planned individually and managed in its own segment in the MRP list or the current stock/requirements list.
The system does not perform a net requirements calculation between individual sales orders or with the anonymous warehouse stock.
The lot-for-lot order quantity is used as the default setting for the lot-sizing procedure, regardless of the entry you have made in the material master record. You define the lot-sizing procedure for make-to-order production in Customizing for MRP in the workstep "Checking the lot-sizing procedure" in the field "Lot-size calculation for MTO production". Depending on the setting of the lot-size indicator in the material master record, you can define a different lot size for make-to-order production from the one used in make-to-stock production.
MTO (Make to Stock):
The demand program is defined without reference to sales orders.
Sales orders are not relevant to MRP, but can be displayed for information purposes. You make this setting in the "No MRP" field in Customizing for the appropriate requirements class (workstep, "Defining Requirements Classes" in Customizing for SD).
Sales orders are covered by warehouse stock. In Sales and Distribution, you can carry out the availability check according to ATP logic. Material withdrawals for a sales order reduce this sales order's quantity.
The consumption of the demand program (that is of the planned independent requirements) is carried out at goods issue (the indicator "PIR reduction" in Customizing of the requirements class 30 must be set if you want to reduce the demand program when delivering to a sales order). The oldest planned independent requirement is reduced first according to the FIFO (first-in-first-out) principle using the requirement date. Future planned independent requirements are also reduced by goods issues, if allowed by the consumption mode and the forward consumption period.

HI All --MTO-MTS-ETO

Hi All
can any one explain
What is the procedure of MTO , MTS & ETO
Explain

Hi Prakash,
make to order:
it is a buisness scenario where the company produces goods according to the
needsand specifications of the customer,the product sold is not stored on the shelves.the product could be very similar but merely change a portion for differen t of its forms for different sales orders.the production cycle is trigered according to how the customer likes to see the product but not the company.
Make to order Scenario
1. Make-to-order production is a process in which a product is individually manufactured for a particular customer. In contrast to mass production for an unspecified market where a material is manufactured many times, in make-to-order production a material is created only once though the same or a similar production process might be repeated at a later time.
2. You can use make-to-order production: (a) For branches of industry or products where a small quantity of products with a large number of different characteristics are manufactured (b) When a product has to be assembled particularly for a sales order.
3. Stock keeping is not usually carried out for products that are made to order. In companies using make-to-order production, the demand program only determines the production area, in which various variant types are produced. Depending on how you track the costs associated with make-to-order production, there are two ways to process make-to-order items during sales order processing.
(a) Make to order using sales order
(b) Make to order using project system (not relevant for SD application)
4. for make to order production using the sales order, all costs and revenues involved for an order item are held collectively at that item. A particular rule is used that can be changed manually to transfer costs to profitability analysis.
5. make to order production is largely a production planning configuration. It is also controlled by the requirements type, which is determined by three things
the strategy group (MRP 3) in MMR
the MRP group (MRP1) in MMR
the item category and MRP type (MRP 1)
6. Make-to-order production is controlled by the requirements type. The requirements type is determined on the basis of the MRP group (MRP1) and the strategy group (MRP3) in the material master record. In addition, a plant must be assigned for make-to-order items in the sales order.
make to stock:
here the production is done irrespective of the customer orders, it is usually done on the basis of the sales forecasts not on the customer specifications, it is usually a push strategy,company produces the products and they are sold.
there is no customising of the product.
STO
Whenever you need to transfer the materials from one plant to another plant belonging to one company or belonging to two company code stock transfer order is raised by the delivering company.
STO:
Transfer of goods from one location to another location,it may be between plants within the same company code or in different company code's plants.
within the company code,bet plants, receiving plant will raise the STO in Supplying/issuing plant-ME21n,
Supplying plant will deliver the goods to receiving plants , then we need to pick n post the Goods Issue-VL02n, nw when we can observe that the STO qtty will be added into receiving plant and reduced in Delievering plant.
Configure Intercompany Stock Transport Order
Material should exist in both the plants (Delivering & Ordering),
Internal customer should be assaigned to the ordering plant ( MM -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Setup stock transport order -> assign the internal customer to the ordering plant and assign the Sales area of the internal customer.
Assign its Sales area to the delivering plant
Assign the document type and Delivery type NB and NLCC
Assign the Supplying plant --> Receiving Plant --> NB
Take the delivering plant and assign the sales area.
Vendor master has to be created and assaign the supply source ( Delivering Plant).
Create a puchase order ME21N ---> Save
Delivery VL10 G ---> Calculation rule (appropriate) --> Assaign the purchase order number here nt. and execute.
Select the Delivery creation line and do the back ground process.
Start the log display and see the delivery document number by the documents button
Goto VL02N --> do picking and PGI --> Then do the MIGO with respect to the delivery docume
Billing (Intercompany pricing conditions should be set).

Sales order to consider for MTO scenario

Hi PP experts
How to ensure the consideration of sales order requirements for MTS or MTO.
Is it possible to distinguish by order types.
I request please indicate the config requirements for this.
warm regards
sairam akundi

Sairam,
I am not sure as to what excatly you are looking for.
However please note the following with respect to sales order requirements for MTO and MTS:
For MTO: The requirements type in the procurement tab of the sales order should be KE or any other requirements type that supports procurement from sales requirements. To be able to enter the KE requirements type in the sales order the material master should have Planning strategy group which suppotrs MTO Example: 20 which is specified in the MRP3 view.
For MTS: The requirements type in the procurement tab would be KSL or any other which supports make to order. The Planning strategy group for this in material master should be 10.
The configurations for this include the
1) configuration of the Planning strategy group which contains a list of planning
strategies allowed.
2) configuration of individual strategies which combine the requirements types from Production and Sales. The requirements class which is keyed in the requirements type determines excatly how the planning and procurement occurs.
The above configurations are pre-defined in standard SAP. You could change them if you require to.
Check the configs under:
SPRO>SD>Basic functions>Av check and transfer of requirements.
With the above basic settings, in case of MTO sales order would drive the production. In case of MTS production is carried based on forecast values (Planned independent requiremts irrespective of sales order requirements). The warehouse stock is then allocated to the sales order at the time of delievry.
For more help check the SAP online help on Planning strategies.
Hope above is useful.

Ram

GATP in MTO/MTS scenario

We have an ongoing implementation for a paper industry using GATP. Ours is basically a make-to-order(MTO) scenario. But we have some stocks (from order cancellation, rejects, etc) which we move to unrestricted stock category (that is without account assignment). So our planning strategy group contains MTO(primary) and MTS (secondary) strategy. We use reqmnt classes 046 and 049 respectively.
Reqmnt types are KEK and KSVS respectively. When we create a sales order we default the reqmnt type to KSVS so we can do a GATP check for unrestricted stock. We use basic availability check, rules-based check, and CTP.
We need solutions for the following:
1. When we do the GATP check it always reduces the required quantity from the available unrestricted stock quantity. In some situations, we don't want to consider the stock even if it matches most of customer requirements (for plethora of reasons). Is there a way to do confirmation bypassing the stock and trigger CTP for the entire required quantity.
Example: Unrestricted stock qty available=100, required qty=200. Instead of producing 100, is there a way to tell the system to produce 200(since we don't want to take the available stock).
2. When we do only the basic availability check (without activating RBA), in the GATP screen when we click on the delivery proposal button, it takes us to the sales order screen and we are able to see the confirmed quantity in the schedule line. In this case when we click the check instruction button in the GATP overview screen, it shows check mode 049 and business event A as expected. But when we also activate RBA and do a GATP check from the sales order it shows the substitution list with buttons for delivery proposal. If we click on a button for delivery proposal where it shows a confirmed quantity, it doesn't show any confirmed quantity in the delivery proposal screen. Also, when we click on the check instructions for one of the substituted rows, it shows check mode 046 and business event A.
Why we are not able to do a confirmation in this case? Are we missing any setting in R/3.
We are using ECC 6.0 and SCM 5.0
Thanks,
Ramesh

Tilman,
Well, it can be executed...but the results are inconsistent. RBA GATP will in some limited circumstances give deceptively reasonable results for MTO, especially with CTP. However, it is not a comprehensive solution as pointed out by Sanjeev. The problem lies in the subitems created in ECC. Each subitem is account assigned to the sales order item or subitem in MTO (although it is not yet clear to me that YOUR 'MTO' orders are so configured). When performing an atp, and during Backorder Processing, when you perform the product check, the first thing the check does is to delete any subitem and all unfirmed supply elements in APO and then run RBA GATP. Now, the account assignment is no longer relevant for the subitem, but is changed to being relevant to the ITEM. Product check can no longer find any firmed supply elements (such as stock, or production orders, or Purchase orders), and will either deconfirm, go to lead time, or create another planned order, depending on your settings. This is unsatisfactory.
You also mention seeing Business Event 'A' in your scope of check. This is typically 'not-account-assigned'. AE is usually used for Sales order account assigned checking. This is hard coded in SD and sent to APO during the ATP check (well, it was before ECC6, I haven't worked much on this rev yet). If you are not getting Business Event 'AE' or 'A-something' when you do a 'scope of check', then you are only checking generic stock.
You didn't mention the strategies you are using, but KEK/046 sounds quite a bit like strat 25. Anyhow, whichever it is, the strategy configuration in ECC should have 'Acct assign cat' set to 'E", if you want MTO. If you are actually creating MTO requirements, I would be surprised that you didn't receive an error during your ATP check, without also having 'AE' configured in SCM under "maintain check control" and also under 'Maintain Check instructions".

Mix Planning (MTO + MTS)

Hi...
I have Stock of One raw material (Trading Material) of Quantity 10.
Now i created Sales order for Quantity of 50 qty...Now my requirement is that after MRP run, system should consider the the available stock (10 nos.) also after generating requirement PR of qnty 40 should have reference of Sales Order,Customer Specific PR.
How to map this , which strategy i have to use for this material, as it mix of Make to Order & Make To Stock kind of Scenario.
Expecting Positive reply Soon

I'm afraid you are waiting for positive reply for vain.
As per my best knowledge there's no mix MTS / MTO scenario in SAP. Whether you use MTO or MTS but you cannot mix them.
You can maintain two planning strategies for your planning strategy group (that is assigned to your material in MRP3 view of material master) and use one of them in the SOs according to your wish...
SPRO > Production > Production Planning > Demand Management > PIR > Plannng Strategy > Define Strategy Group (V_T461P) - you can give a main startegy and some alternatives for the same strategy group...
...but even though you define one MTO and one MTS strategy for your strategy group MRP will consider MTO SO as MTO SO and MTS PIRs as MTS PIRs. I mean you cannot consider normal (not-assigned stock) for MTO SOs (for which MRP plans in the SO special stock segment). And you cannot create PR with SO reference by MRP for MTS requirements.
Strategy 40 is mix of MTS and MTO (you can consider SOs) but it also can't fulfill your requirements.
Just my opinion...

Csaba

Difference between MTO/MTS vs Consumption Based Planning?

Hi,
What is the Difference between MTO/MTS vs Consumption Based Planning?.
In what scenario we used these types?? could you please explain me with examples...
Regards,
Raj

Hi,
MTS = Make to stock, you are simply wanting to build up stock and so this will generate requirements even if there are no Sales orders or demand of any kind. This is the most common option
MTO = make to order, you only want these items when there is a specific
But consumption based planning is not completely different, you are still using MTS / i.e. you are creating requirements based on the settings in MRP instead of any demand (but the same applies to MTS)
So MTS and consumption based planning are more or less the same thing.
You would use MTO if you produce items only when you have an order.
So if you have warehouse space and sell a lot of an item, you can use MTS or consumption based planning because you know that you will always be likely to be able to sell the stock.
If you make things for specific orders (such as special sizes or specifications to match the customer's requirements. Or if you don't sell many of an item and the lead times for production are very short (or you don't have much warehouse space) then you would wait for an order before making the item (MTO
