Mrp considering other plant stock also

hi gurujis,
I want to run mrp for some finished products, while running mrp, it has to consider the stocks in other plants also. is there any settings for that?
all valuable replies will be rewarded.
thank you

senthil

Hi Senthil,
First of all I admit that my suggestion would not be as 100% per your requirement.
It means, if you want to use the scope of planning, it must be at plant(s) level for all the materials which are relevant. ( only for some finished products it is not possible).
I appreciate Mr. Murugesan's comments..
Now let's come to the point.
If you want to do planning for Multiple Plants then proceed as follows:
1. T. Code : OM0E
2. Planning Scope : Put 4 digit (Alphabets/numeric) & Description
3. Double click on Sequence of plants (Left Side)
4. Put your Plants as per sequence (As per priority wise)
i.e System will plan for Plants in this sequence only.
5. Use this Scope of planning in MD01 or MDBT as required.
Planning file entries created via stock transfer are automatically taken into account in the planning run.
This ensures that a material is also correctly planned in all plants affected even in the case of
stock transfer processing.
Best Regards,
Siva

MRP consider other plant inventory before procuring from vendor

Hello All,
Is it possible to have standard R/3 (5.0) consider inventory of other plants before creating a schedule line to procure from a vendor?
Example: We have inventory in two plants.
<b>In plant 1000</b>,
requirements of 500 pieces
inventory of 100 pieces
<b>In plant 2000</b>,
requirements of 50
inventory of 200 pieces
In plant 1000, I would like the MRP result to create a stock transfer requirement of 150 from plant 2000 and then a schedule line from a vendor of 250 pieces.
Is this possible? If so any suggestions on how to setup my plants/materials?
Thank you,
Jerry

Hi,
If Plant 1000 regularly receives supplies from Plant 2000 apart from the Vendor, I think it would better if you can maintain Special Procurement Type (Ref SPT 40) for transfer from 2000 to 1000. Then maintain Quota between Plant and Vendor (MEQ1).
However if your scenario is such that stock transfer reqmt should get generated only if when there is surplus inventory at Plant 2000, I am not sure if this can be achieved in Std R/3.

STO generated by MRP to other plant

Dear all,
I need to to generate STO for other plant for RAW matl requirement. and MRP should generate it.
so please reply me if anybody know how to maintain data in the system that it will generate STO for other specific plant only
Regards,
Vimlesh

Hi
Did you maintain the special procurement keys which you intend for the Default plant in the Master data new entries table? There wil be 10 keys , instead of going by new entries(sometines this does not work because of our entry mistake), you can copy and assign your plant for all the keys, by this way you wil make available all the special Proc.keys for your plant, as you might want to change later the key due to some reason or other based upon the requirement.
Second, maintain procurement type F/X and the Spl procurement type 40 in the MRP2 view of the materials, it is expected that you are also filling in other details as required in other MRP views also.
You can not directly generate STO from MRP run, have a look In MD04 for the materials which are subject to ext procurement. You can check each level of the material by entering material no. in the requirement table in MD04 and view the PRs whether they are generated or not.
Either you can go by ME59 or simply you can directly proceed from the MD04 screen by doubel clicking the PR and converting it into a PO by adopting it in PO level, If we have any customised PO document type that can be used here instead if the standard NB type also.

Restriction of planned order generation (mrp)in other plant.

Hi,
I am running mrp for sales orders and i want to restrict the planned order generation in other plants other than the sales order plant.
through standard activity it can be blocked by not maintaining special procurement key of stock transfer.
But some users are creating manual demand in other plant(STPO) against the same sales order for some sub assembly. so if they are running MD02 in their plant it is creating planned orders against the same sales order.
I want to restrict the planned order generation against any sales order in other plants. How it can be done.any enhancement please suggest.
Regards
Madan

Hi,
we cannot restrict the authorizations so specifically here in my business client.
Based on planned orders we have defined some programs.
the programs are effecting because of these unwanted planned orders which have been created for a different plant sales orders.
Is there any enhancement or BADI to control the creation of planned orders in other plant for a sales order of different plant.
please suggest.

Qulaity stock included in the Plant stock -MD04

Dear All ,
I am having following stock for the Material A ,
Unrestricted Stock = 0
Quality Stock = 10
When i check in the T-code :MD04 , System shows the Plant Stock as 10 , and this stock is included in MRP also ..
I have checked the Checking Rule assignment in the configuration plant parameters under MRP .
How the Quality stock is included in the plant stock and the same considered for MRP .
Is this logic is correct one ...
I am expecting some replies from you all

hi,
What you notice is standard SAP behavior. QC stock is considered in plant stock & same is available during MRP run. However for Av. Check you can exclude QC stock in the checking rule.
If your business need is not to include QC stock in MRP run, then create a SLoc which is not MRP relevant & maintain the stock in this location. In MRP - 4 view you need to maintain the value 1 for Sloc MRP indicator. You can get this value defaulted for all newly created materials in OMIR. For mass changes of existing materials you can use MM17.

Production at other plant

I have created sales order for material X. In Material BOm of X there is material y with special procurement 80 ( production from other plant ) in line item of Bom.
When I do MRP MD01 in first plant then system does not create planned order for material y in other plant.
But when i do MD50 then system creates planned order in other plant.
Also when production is completed in other plant for material Y then it does not built stock in First plant but it creates sales order stock in other plant.

Mayuresh,
Sorry for the very late reply. I do not think you need to built stock of Y in the first plant. You can just do good issue of Y (in stock in 2nd plant) to the production order of X (the first plant).
If you need to have stock of Y in first plant then you will need to manually do a plant to plant transfer posting goods movement.
Hope this helps. If you have additional questions please come back.
Thanks,
Ram

How to consider the stocks of other plants in MRP run

Hello All,
I have a requirement in which A finished material which it´s planning and production is on PLANT 1 and and is transfered to plant 2 (there is no production and no planning on this plant, it is used for storage only). In that case, I would like the MRP to check the stock of finished material both in plant 1 and 2 for creating planned orders .
I know this can be possible with APO . but is there any other way round we can do this like MRP area or scope of planning or some z developemenmts.
Thanks in advance

Is there any stock at production plant? Where does the goods issue to sales occur?
If both plants can have stock and sales can occurs in both plants then it is the issue not only stock but also sales order consumption with planned independent requirement. You need to have two BADI to do so. First is the one you mentioned and the flexible PIR also (MD_PIR_FLEX_CONS).
If only storage plant has stock and sales occurs here, then you may want to explore special procurement type produce in other plant and make storage plant a planning plant. The receipt of production order at production plant will posted into storage plant directly.
If sales occurs in storage plants, and there are stock in both plant, use special procurement type transfer from others (40 as standard). When you run MRP, the system will check stock at storage plant first, then if shortage, create stock transfer request to production plant. At production plant, the stock transfer request will be your demand to offset with stock there before create planned order.
Like other comments stated previously, SAP cannot handle the multiple plants planning very well.

MRP with stocks in other plant

Hi,
Scenario: 5 stocking Plants + 1 Manufacturing plant under a company code.
For a finished product, all 6 Plants have stock.
For MRP, the demand of the finsihed product from all 6 plants is combined and fed as PIR feeding at manufacturing plant.
Question: How to make SAP to consider stock of all plants and generate the planned order for the difference Qty?
E.g. PIR at Mfg plant = 100 Nos.
Stocks at 5 Stocking plants = 50 nos
Stocks at 1 Mfg plant = 10 nos
Hence on MRP run, system to generate planned order for 100 - (50+10) = 40 Nos at mfg Plant.
Thanks

Hi Nitin,
SAP's planning is based on lean-manufacturing practices - i.e. you will never have stocks in excess of requirements (plus safety stock). So, in reality, you will not need to "adjust" your production for stocks lying at stocking plants (stocks at stocking plants would be just equal to safety stock logic defined at each plant).
Now say some demand at any of the stocking plants got cancelled, and you end up with excess stocks at that moment. So in next MRP-run, system will delete some future STOs. Or, if there is nothing to delete, then MRP-list will show exception message # 25, and you can decide how to move that excess stocks.
So, in conclusion, adjustment of production, based on stocks at all 6 plants, will NOT be needed. Just produce as per MRP proposals, and be on the lookout for exception message # 25. (Hope you are using special procurement key for demand transfer from stocking plant to production plant).

Plant stock to be consider in MRP MD51

Hi all,
My client want while running MRP for project MD51 that time plant stock and other project stock should be consider. MRP should not generated requirement for material available in Plant stock and other project stock i.e. special stock category Q.
With Regards,
Ashish

Dear ,
In SAP Stanrdar while running MRP on projects -MD51 , it does not consider unrestricted use stock .
If you want to consider planr stock or speciall stock except project stock , you have to transfer the stock to the WBS ( MB1B-412Q) so that it will consider it as a project stock during MRP and will not genrate any requirement.
You can try with Cross Project Indicator as 1-All the segments on stock in various wbs and keep availablity check key accrodingly (01) in MRP3 view .

Considering stock in other plants' storage location

Hi all,
E.g. For 1 material I have stock in 2 plants A and B. Major consumption being in plant A (say 80%). So when I execute MD07 for this material with MRP controller for plant A (collective overview), in the 'plant stock' column I would like the stock to be sum of stock in plant A and plant B. Is it possilble ?
Regards,
Yogesh

Hi,
For that you can use MD48, but it is per material. If you want such feature for multiple materials, then you will have to build a custom report (for stocks refer to table MARD). As std SAP ECC does not have this feature.
Hope it clarifies.

Project material requirements to consider plant stock first

In some ERP systems, we have project specific BOMs and when the requirements are exploded and netted, the system first tries to see if the demand can be met from plant stock. If full or partial demand can be met from the plant stock, the system recommends a stock transfer order from general (plant) inventory to the project.
Any unmet requirement generates a project specific 'mrp-planned' order (purchase or production recommendation). This way, the planners and financial can see what existing plant stock can be used for a project and they can use this info for financial planning. Once the planner determines that the existing plant stock is usable for the project, he/she can confirm and 'execute' the transfer order which prings the plant stock to the project stock. For engineering or technical reasons (single lot date code requirements) the planner can choose not to accept the stock transfer recommendation (either fully or partially) and manually create purchase recommendation to cover the quantity.
I have read some posts here but it is not clear that IN SAP PS if the collective indicator is set (or not set), would one be able to see, either directly or indirectly, what plant stock is recommended to be transferred as project stock?
Can the behavior of described ERP system be modeled?
Thanks, experts.

Hi,
Please also try the following settings in Material Master to consider the item from plant stock ..
View : MRP1
MRP Type : PD
Lot Size : MB
View : MRP 2
Procurement Type : F
View : MRP 3
Strategy Group : 70
Mixed MRP : 3
Availability Check : 01
View : MRP 4
Individual/coll. : 2

MRP User Exit/BAdI for changing plant stock

Hi,
I have a client who is wanting to add consignment stock to plant stock during the MRP run for materials with a certain material group.
I need to find an exit or a BAdI which is called at an appropriate time to have a developer code this function.
Anyone have any ideas? I don't want to make changes to SAP Standard code!
Thanks,
Mark

Hi,
If am right, you want to consider the customer consignment stock in MRP, if yes then I believe the BADi -> MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA should meet your need.
I have not used this BADi, but check with your abaper if the method CHANGE_MDPSX_MARD reads the stock & then the unrestricted stock can be added with customer consignment stock from MSKU.
Check & revert if the above meets your need.

Dear
For MTO scinario , any depedent will be either having Account assingement PR or it will pick up the speciall stock (E) based on the Individaul and Cllective Indicator as 1 in MRP4 view .It will never getting reservaed from un-allocated stock ( i beieve u r talking abou Un-restrited stcok ) .This is a standrad behaviour of the MTO cycle in SAP system .
As you have mentioned , that you are using planning startegy 20 -MTO and also you want depdents (SFG and Compoenets in SFG) to be from un-allocated stock .In that case you should not use Planning strategy 20 and also assing Indviaul and Collective Indicator as 2 or blank .It will be purely MTS and you can have sales order with item categoery TAN .
So please keep Ind/Collective indicator as 2 in MRP4 and try
Hope this helps

How can MRP consider subcontractor stock?

     in-house stock 50
     SubcSt   20
after MRP running , the plannde order quantity will be 30 ,not 50.
i appreciate for any help.
regards
Joey

May I have mistaken your question,
You can see the details in the following help link, you may have to go for MRP area concept
Subcontracting
Use
In subcontracting, the vendor is provided with materials (components), which he uses to produce the finished product.
Integration
From the point of view of materials planning, subcontracting is initiated by the special procurement key Subcontracting. The special procurement key is allocated to the finished product or the assembly in the material master (MRP 2 view) (see also Procurement Type and Special Procurement Type).
In order to plan specific material requirements for each individual subcontractor, you can use MRP areas. You can thereby create an individual MRP area for every subcontractor (see Planning for Components to be Provided in Subcontracting).
You can find further information on subcontracting in the SAP document MM Inventory Management under Subcontracting.

Is there a way to transfer those stocks to other plant of same vendor?
Can you also help me on this process (subcon)
to send the materials in vendor i have to create subcon PO first,
then transfer the materials of the assembly to vendor using what tcode and what movement type?
Im new to this..
regards,
Najah

Hello
Here both Plant are under same company code, no need to configure the clearing accounts.
During transfer posting ,
The inventory value of the plant (valaution area) Transaction event BSX will be reduced and same will posted in the stock account BSX of the other plant.
Entries will be :
Example
                        Valuation class          Value     G/L account
Plant 1   BSX              3000                 -XXXX    300000
Plant 2   BSX              3000                 +XXXX   300000
If both plants are in different company codes, then clearing accounts will comes into picture when you transfer post with 301 'O'.
Warm regards
