MRP controllers for Obsolete materials

We have a requirement to check MRP controller for certain values that will identify an obsolete material.
Has anyone done this?
Is there an easy way to do this? Custom? Config?

Hi,
use the transaction MMD7 to display the materials for a particular MRP controller..
Thanks,

Reg: MRP Run for all Materials

Hi Abapers,
I have an issue where in using MD01( Material Run), i need to raise one PR for all materials below the re-order stock. Currently system creates one PR for each material below the re-order stock.
Please throw any ideas regarding this.
Thank you

Hi ,
to procure assembly take 10 days.
And delivery date is after 2 days
After MRP run , system will take first backward schedulling from delivery date will take 2 days and going forward scheduling and take 8 days .
So that from current date system will take 10 days so assembly will procure easily .
Suppose today date 19/05/2011. And delivery date is after 2 days .( on date 21/05/2011 )
if MRP is run on 19/05/2011. System will create delivery date 29/05/2011.So assembly will be easily procure within span of 10 days from 19/05/2011 to 29/05/2011. Delivery of FG is easily available on 29/05/2011.

Block posting for Obsolete Materials in COPA

Hey All
We ahve a ascenario in which we post some expenses to the materials via FI transactions FB50. Nothing hits the stock accounts in these transactions. Only thing is while posting we assign the Materials to the PA segment so that we can run reports in COPA for the materials
Now some materials have been discontinued and the material plant status have been set to NOT to perform any transaction related to supply chain. BUT when posting through above FB50 trasnaction the system does stop it from posting and derivation for the obsolete material. I have even tried setting the deletion flag in MM06 for the material. Is there any solution to this so that we can stop material from posting
Thanks
Ankur

Hi
In my opinion, you need to use exit COPA0002 and put a check.. I dont think its possible in standard system
Another way is to change the description of these materials and add Text " DO NOT USE" so that users are aware while using it

MRP run for dependent materials

Dear All,
Could please give me solution for this below scenario.
My Client wants to run the MRP for dependent material. For example, there are certain material which needs other material also for their application. Material X is leading material and Materil Y is dependent material for material X. one pc of X is made up of 10 pc of Y material.
Now we want that system automatically runs the MRP not only for leading material but also for dependent materials. ( Even if the reorder level for dependent material is not reached)
PLEASE GIVE ME SOLUTION
Thanks.
Vineet Dhawan

Hi
Please maintaint the Bill of material in transactio code CS01 for dependent material X. Maintain the material Y as child material with 10 nos, choose L- stock type.
Ensure the procurement type is F and speical procurement type is 30 in case of subcontracting. also ensure right validity periods.
If the material X is a finished goods, while planning for Material X, subsequently the child material Y also will be planned.
Execute MRP, with requirements for Material X , it will explode for material Y.
If reorder point is not reached in consumption based planning, the material will not be planned.
hope this helps

MRP run for some listed component

Hi Dear,
I want to run MRP for 10 to 20 components instead of whole plant. Pl. let me know how I can run the same.
Thanx in advance
Regards
L.B.Yadav

Hi Lal,
One way is you can assign a new MRP controller for the materials you need to run the MRP.
And in the user exit: M61X000, activate for the MRP controller
In MD01 screen you can give the MRP controller and run, it will consider only the materials assigned with the MRP controller.

How to take planning run for selected materials?

We have some 50 materials for which only i want to take planning run.I try to use MRP area but it it creating problem at the time of delivery of materials.Please suggeset solution.

Hey,
you can resolve this issue by creating a separate MRP controller for these materials and configure the user exit key for this MRP controller at MD01. (just press F4 at user exit key and select the maintain values option) such that materials for only these MRP controller are planned.
This however, has a drawback, ONLY materials whose MRP controller is selected would be planned:
Eg;
if Parent material A has two child materials in it Y and Z.
if you assign A the MRP controller 001 <~~ and
Y and Z have some other MRP controller, the dependent requirements generated from A would not be planned on Y & Z,
So, if you want the planning to take place at all BOM levels for these materials you can place the same MRP controller for all materials which you want to plan separately.
Hope this solves your issue.

MDBT for MRP Controllers

Hi Friends,
Kindly let me know the procedure to run MRP in background(using MDBT) for materials based on MRP controllers. I know that it can be done using "User exit key" & "User exit parameters" in MDBT but not sure how to do it.
Thanks & Regards,
Srini

1.Mostly standard SAP has 2 standard setting for the user exit key
a.ICL Include specified MRP controller in planning run
b.EXL Exclude specified MRP controller from planning run
2.So based on your requirement you need to set this..
3.So give the user exit key as ICL if you need to include specified mrp controller ,in the user exit parameter give the mrp controller number.
4.schedule thejob.
5. Now this background job will run only for the materials which has the speciifed mrp controller
let usk now if you have any issues

One pr for multiple materials with line items while running mrp

Hi SAP gurus,
              I am config the system for MRP as per my client requerement.
                 We use CBP for different RAW materialsfor example they having a 10 materials for planning,were,
         MRP type is VB,
          LOT size is FX,with Different Reorder points and fix order quantity for all materials,
         My client whant run MRP for all these materials in single time that means they whant multiple item at single levels,
        i soles these requirement with the help of Product Group(sop) and its working but when we running md02 for product group all materials have planed and they give different purchase requistion numbers for all these materials but my client Wants single purchase requistion with line items for all these materials.
     Pls give me the solution for that requirement.
thanks and Regards,
abhi

this is not the way SAPs MRP run works.
Where is the benefit for this?
the requisitions are not even split into header and item table, it is just one table EBAN, and either way you would get exact the same number of records in EBAN.

MRP FOR CBP MATERIALS- MRP TYPE 'VB', IN MD01

Dear PP Gurus,
My client wants to run MRP for consumption based planning materials (MRP type: VB), for there individual plants. For this I have suggested MD01 for planning in the perticuler plant by using the user exit available in the screen. But then also, after MRP run system is plannig all the materials which have MRP type PD as well as VB.
The user exit parameters are
User Exit Key: 002 (Consider MRP Controller for CBP)
User Exit Parameters : CBP
"CBP" is my MRP controller for materials which have MRP type 'VB'.
Pl suggest me what & where is the problem?
Thanks,
Regards,
Sachin Patil.

Dear,
It is possible through
User Exit: M61X000.
You need to maintain MRP group assign it to the VB type material then go ahead.
For details please refer this thread,

MRP FOR MULTIPLE MATERIALS

Dear cons
For MRP we are using t-CODE- md62 for requirement demand.Then we have created a z- t-code which is a replica of t-code- MD02. In MD02 T-CODE one single material option is availble. so we chose one BDC of new t-code- ZMD02. In this Z-t-code it is possible to upload multiple material.But the problem is for each material the system is creating an individual Purchase requisition even though I have uploaded multiple materials, Our motto is to create a single purchase requisition for these multiple material just like the t-code- ME51N where entering of multiple items .are available. So is there any standard T-code availble to create a single pur. requisition for multiple materials in one time.Any advice for other option.

Hi Nirupama,
In standard system we dont have any such facility/transaction to create a single PR for a bulk of material. Which ever T-codes are available to run MRP for multiple materials (ex:MD01), those give individual PR for each individual material. You may refer to SAP notes also for this.

Release Strategy in PO for direct materials not driven by MRP

We have a requirement to enable release strategy for purchase orders created for direct materials that are not driven from an MRP requirement for a single plant.
Request you to let me know how I can make this work.
I have an option to make it mandatory to have Preq for these PO's and can enable release strategy for Preq which are created other than MRP.
request to let me know if there are other options in PO's itself where I can find that the Purchase orders are created directly and put release strategy in it.
Thanks and Regards
Murali

Hi Murali,
Standard SAP provides PO release strategy at header level only and not at item level.
So you can create a new PO document type and allow use of only this document type for manual PO creation.
Then set-up PO release strategy for newly created document type, where one of the primary characteristic will be Order Type (Purchasing).
Hope this will fulfill your requirements.

Automatic MRP could not work for several materials

Dear Expert,
I have problem here in running MRP. Some of the materials were not automatically running MRP. While when I tried to run it manually using MD01 it works.
May be u can give me some idea why? When I tried to check the setting, i found in the table all the materials with complete status KCVDLSBGZXA are not automatically running MRP.
Is it because of that complete status setting? if yes where could i found that setting ?
Thanks
Pauline

Paulin,
MRP relevant changes can be new procrument proposel, changes done in MRP view of material, changes in qunatity for re-order planning relevant materials etc.
MRP will not done untill and unless you have entry of materials in planning files.
i am not agree with you on the point that auto MRP is running for the material for which there is no planning file entry.
another things is please , provide details of material master like MRP type etc for the material for which planning file entry is there but MRP is not considering it.
another question is , what result you are expecting after MRP run ....? i mean how you come to a conclusion that MRP is not run for few of the materils but its done sucessfully for other materials ......?
please check it again and reply.

MRP - MD06 - messages 06 & 07 dont show up for certain materials

Hello guys!
i have detected an issue at my system in transaction MD06 for certain materials.
For MRP list a message 06 or 07 in many cases are not shown.
Messages meanings:
06 Start date in the past
07 Finish date in the past
This happens if a PR with message 06 or 07 was not treated between two new MRP lists, messages 06 or 07 are not displayed in MD06 again.
However, if you run MD07, at this transaction, every message is shown correctly.
Please tell me if i explain myself in a right way.
Does anyone know if there is a customizing IMG activity to determine how to show exception messages in MD06?
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards,
Cecilia.

Hello guys!!!
In addition, i could detect that if i run transaction MD03 for individual planning of this materials, message 42 is displayed to change the delivery date.
However, when we run batch transaction MDBT for every materials at the system, at the same conditions for this materials, no message is generated at MRP List!!!
I checked at planning file and for this materials there is no NETCH indicator marked.
However, i have some PR created for this materials that have not been treated, and their initial and delivery date are out of time.
No new messages were created after the 01 (new PR) a couple of moths ago...
If one purchase requisition is created but then it is not modified... will it be added again for the next mrp run???
Because i can see that they are not marked again at planning file until someone changes manually some field of the PR.
Please help me because i cannot find out any clue to solve this situation!!!
Thank you!!!!!

cecil

MRP for 2 materials

Is it possible to run MRP for one material number and take into account inventory and orders that exist for a different material number?
We have some parts that can be rebuilt (e.g. material abc123). We're considering creating a new material number for the rebuilt version of the part (e.g. abc123R). We want to run MRP for the abc123 material, and recognize the inventory and orders for both materials.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Dennis

Hi Dennis,
It is not posible to do as you want, because there is only one number material by physical part... you can not assing two number material by physical part...

Mass change of Reorder point on MRP areas for materials

Hi,
Is there any process to upload mass change of reorder point on MRP areas for materials.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pavithra,
I know this is an old thread and my answer may not be relevant to you anymore but maybe it will help others. Are you trying to do a mass change for the reorder points of the MRP Areas? If so, go to tcode SA38, then run program RMMDDIBE. Then go to create/change with Data tab. Select change MRP area and there you can change the reorder points for your MRP areas.

Chester
