Hi,
Please check Lot size in Material Master MRP 1 view. If it is FX, system will plan excess quantity as per fixed lot size.

MRP is not generating any schedule line in my vendor's scheduling agreement

Hello all,
My question is: why the MRP is not generating any new line in my vendor's scheduling agreement?
This is the scenario:
I have created a vendor's scheduling agreement with transaction ME31L
I have created a customer's scheduling agreement with transaction VA31 and those characteristics:
- Forecast scheduling lines
- JIT scheduling lines
- MRP to DS type assigned to type C: Requirements according to forecast delivery/Deliveries according to JIT
I have run MRP with transaction MD01
MRP is generating some purchasing requistions, not purchase orders because we have set up a release strategy which requires 2 approvals, but those purchasing requests are not generating any new line in the vendor's scheduling agreement.
Any idea why it could be? Please do not hesitate to ask for further explanations. Thank you

Hi,
Check if stock is available for the material in that plant.
Also check the requirement date for the material and compare it with the planning horizon for that plant.
Check your material master MRP view.
Create source list(for material and plant in question) with MRP indicator 2.
Thanks and Regards,
Maheshwari

Mrp PR wrongly generated.

Hi gurus,
Plz go through this issue.
Reorder point : 20
safety stock:    10
fixed lot size:    60
MRP type:       VB manual reorder point without ext reqmt.
on 27th Feb stock was 18 and so after MRp run PR generated for qty. 60
And the PR was convertd to PO on 4th March and the reqmt date was 20.4.2008
But on 5th March Mrp was run and PR was generated
My issue is when a PO is open and if the open po qty is considered there is no need to generate one more PR
The reqmt is no pr should generate duly considering the open PO qty
What might be the root for this issue?
And how to rectify it?
Regards,

Hi Thanx for ur reply.
I checked as guided by you
But there are no dependencies
Low level code is not existing
And there are no confirm control keys
Is there any possibility of ignotring the open POs
Further it seems to be a bug, If it is a bug how to locate it?
Even refered to Sap, no updates.
Please throw some light on this issue
Thanks & Regards,

MRP run is generating for HALB & ROH excess inventory though wip is availab

Dear Gurus,
SUB:Scheduling & Procurement of semi finished/ raw materials,ie for the Raw materials & semi finished materials the Scheduling agreements are generted by MRP Run much before the time it is actually required ,as in reality some of the material is available in Work in Progress & actually no shortage is there,therby resulting in excess inventory of ROH & HALB
sap suggests to reschedule the raw material purchase orders to cover the requirements according to MRP-run
- opposite to that: manual checking in SAP shows that the current WIP-level (running production orders on part-no. level) is covering a longer period of time than shown by MRP-run for raw material
The Fert was MRP Type P3 with Lot Size FX
Both the HALB & ROH was MRP Type P3 with Lot Size FX
Later i changed the FERT to i have kept the MRP Type P3 itself ,probably i can test it with MRP Type PD;Pl suggest.
However i have changed the HALB & ROH to Lot size HB;i have not changed the MPR Type from P3 to PD:Pl sugget if i need to change it.Also i have defined the max stock level say for ex 5000 pcs .So please suggest how to reduce this excess invenory of ROH & HALB
I wish to express my gratitude for all the support received.
Kindly forward me these information on my mail id ASAP as it is hard to send so much information by reply on mail
I am always available on these below e mails for chatting from 1.00am till 11.00pm India time if you would like to communicate more to me
Thanking you

MRP - PRs being generated along with Schedule lines

Hi
Problem statement - PRs also getting generated alongwith schedule lines in MRP.
We have 'PD' MRP type set up for externally procured material with 'F'. I had set up to generate schedule line using the sourcelist. and during the planning run MD03, I am selecting the following values
Create PR - '2' Purchase requisitions in the open period (any value in the three generates a PR/Planned order in the open period)
Delivery Schedules - 3 Schedule lines.
The client requires only generation of schedule lines. How can I get this done.
regards
Nagaraj

Dear Nagaraj,
For MRP to create the schedule lines automatically, please change to the following settings.
1. Create Scheduling agreement for the vendor,Agreement type LP.
2. In ME03, Source List: Maintain MRP = 2 Record relevant to MRP. Sched. lines generated automatically.
3. Run MRP
Hope this helps you.

MRP background job generating Plnd Ord instead of Pur Req

Hi Gurus,
There is a variant created for background job of MRP, which is running once in a day. In this varaint, I have control parameters set in such a way in that , it should create purchase requisition ( Purchase requisitions in opening period = 3 ) . But its creating planned order only.
When I am running in foreground, it is generating Pur Req as expected but not generating Pur Req when running in background.
Please help me creating purchase requisitions instead of planned order.
Regards,
Om
Edited by: Om.P.Singh on Nov 24, 2011 5:12 PM

Dear Om.P.Singh,
As per your settings (Setting value 3 for Create Purchase Req paremeter) it will create only planned orders for the externally
procured items.
If you have set the value as 1 then it creates only purchase req's for all the externally procured materials.
If you have set the value as 2,then it creates PR in the opening period(mentioned in the scheduling margin key) and planned
orders for the remaining period.
This parameter setting works only for the externally procured items.
Check and revert back.

MRP is not generating purchase requisitions consistently for MRP type VB

Issue: When executing consumption based MRP in ECC 6.0 using the following parameters; purchase requisitions are not created for all material with stocks below max stock levels. In other words requisitions are created incase of some materials and requisitions are not created for others.
u2022     MRP type VB ( manual reorder point) with reorder point qty
u2022     Lot size HB with Max stock level
u2022     Procurement type F (external procurement).
Additional info: Some of these materials are batch managed and results are inconsistence whether it is batch managed or not.
Regards
Sai

I checked that and planning file entry is created.
Example 1: MRP is not working.
MRP type = VB
Lot size =HB
Procurement type= F
Material # = 1200045
Reorder point =30
Max stock level = 300
Available qty = 139
No PRs are existing before MRP.
MRP is expected to create PR for qty 161 (300-139= 161)
Example 2 : MRP is working.
MRP type = VB
Lot size =HB
Procurement type= F
Material # = 1200052
Reorder point =100
Max stock level = 1000
Available qty = 87
MRP created PR qty of 913 and results are as expected.
MRP is expected to create PR for qty 161 (1000-87= 913
NOTE: I am directly creating Purchase requisitions by selecting creation Purchase Requisitions Indicator =1 during MD01/MD02 trxs . Not creating any planned orders.

MD51 Project Planning - double MRP elements getting generated

Hi All,
During planning run for a individual project planning thro MD51,
against a Order reservation for a particular material a PR is getting generated. When we convert the PR to PO and do the planning run , again a new PR is generated and therfore lead to overplanning of a material.
Suppose for the PO which is been created I do a GR for a partial quantity then after second planning run , PR is created only for the remaining qty.
This means the system doesn't considers the PO which is created and generates another PR for the same requirement which is not required.
Kindly help me on this. Its critical

K Rao,
I can see 2 projects for every material planned.
see your last screen shot ,
18-01-0027:02-01 with material I1400542007210
18-01-0027:02-01 without a material, whats the second project?
If you can correct planning for the second project which is without a header material , your issue can be resolved.
Thanks

Excessive Heat generated viewing Flash Media

I have a Apple Powerbook 15" w/1.6 Ghz, 2 GB SDRAM, OSX
10.4.10
I loaded a temp tool to read processor heat in real time.
With machine at idle, the temp is right at about 100F
Go to any video with Flash Media, and the temp reaches 155F.
I just checked the version of Flash Player, and it is V9
Processor Activity Monitor is also maxed out.
Why is it cheap portable DVD players have no issues with heat
or huge processor loads?
It's not enjoyable watching ones Motherboard melt every
soldered socket just to watch a micro video.

Your laptop is not overheating at all. If those were Celsius,
then we have a reason to be worried. Laptops are not the best for
heat management, you have no reason to be worried. Your temps are
fine. The activity monitor is maxing out because whatever you are
watching is obviously very processor intensive, and you are lacking
in that department. Overall, you are fine, and this isn't a Flash
Player issue. Why are cheap portable DVD player able to handle
this, well, that is what they are made for, and solely for that
purpose. They play DVDs and that is it. You have a computer, with a
slew of moving parts, and processes running in the background. If
your computer only played DVDs, than that would be all it is worth,
but you can play DVDs, burn DVDs, surf the web install
applications, the list goes on and on.

Schedule Lines are not getting generated after MRP run.

Hi,
I have an issue where a SA exists for the parent material with item category L (subcontracting). The parent material has a valid BOM and some sub components as well. I see in CS03 that BOM is fine with validity dates for the parent material. A valid source list also exists for the parent material where SA is present as the source of supply with MRP indicator as 2. Now when i run MRP for the parent material using MD02 (NETCH), with indicators as below:
Create pur.req. 2
Schedule lines 3
Create MRP list 1
Planning mode 1
i don't see any schedule lines in MD04. Instead it creates a PR that too without any source of supply.
In master data for the parent material MRP type is PD with Procurement type F and special procurement key 30. I have checked and every thing seems to be fine still MRP run doesn't create schedule lines.
Any help is appreciated. I can give more info if required.
Thanks.

Dear Rakesh,
Scheduling agreement:An outline agreement against which materials are procured at a series of
predefined points in time over a certain period.
1.For this you have to first use ME31L for creating scheduling agreement and then ME38 for maintaining scheduling agreemnet
schedule.
2.Ensure in the source list after maintaining the material,vendor combination the setting for MRP relevancy is set to 2 - Record
relevant to MRP,Schedule line generated automatically.
Moreover you have to use value 3 for delivery schedule line which is one of the MRP control parameter while taking MRP run.
So for the materials for which scheduling agreement exists,schedule lines will be generated.
Check and revert back.

MRP type "VB" components generated dependent reqt. after MRP by sales order

Good morning to all SAP gurus
        I hav scenario for mech. industry where we r going to implement MRP run , having FERT which is MTO scenario and " PD" MRP type.and its BOM components having MRP type "VB" with no strategy type. At MRP run after creating sales order system generated purchase requisition for components(ROH) depends on sales order requirements along with reorder point PR. So please help me system shouldn't generate PR depends on sales order requirements should create as per reorder point PR only.
       EX.   To manu. 1 nos of FERT (PD) required 1 nos of ROH (VB) . we r creating sales order of 10 nos. , reorder pt is 11 and
stock is 15. after mrp run system generated PR for 10 nos which is dependent for sales order.
       Pls elaborate regarding above scenario. Thanks in advance.
Regards
siva

Dear
Practically speakig , system should generate special stock PR as you are dealing with MTO sales order and MRP should plan the depedent requirement accordingly based on the MRP4 -Indiviaul and Collective Indicator -1 .
But , if you do not want to consider it as special stock , then you need to assing MRP4 Individual and Collective Indicator -2 and run MRP MD02-2,1,1,3,3 .
In you case , you have already stock 15 pc and ROP -10 , so system will not genreate any PR because , it will fullfill the requurement ( 10 PC FERT -10 ROH) .Once the stock fall behind 10 , then it will trigger PR .
Hope this is clear

After firming planned order, new planned order is generating in MRP run

Hi Experts,
I am using SAP AFS. Planning strategy is 21- MTO with Project settlement. MRP type is PD. Lte size is EX. Procurement type is X.
We are using the production versions. Individual / collective reqmts is 1. Planning time fence is not maintained.
In sap AFS T.Code for MRP run is /n/afs/md02. After receiving the Sales order, MD04 screen gets updated accordingly and I am running the MRP.Planned orders are generated accordingly. I am firming the planned order manually through MD04. The satr mark is also appearing.
My problem starts now. If I am running the MRP again for the same requirements another planned order of the same qty. is getting generated. That means after the second MRP run, I am having two planned orders (one firmed plnd order) and second is the new planned order. My requirement is that MRP should not generate any new Plnd. order / PR's if there is no new Sales order.
The parameters for MRP run are "1" for "Create PR's", '1" for "Plng Mode" and '"1" for "scheduling ".
I have tried in all the possible ways, but of no use. Still new plnd order is generated after firming the 1st plnd. order in MRP run.

Thanks all for your feedback..
@ Vishal
1. Yes, Both Old firmed planned order and newly generated planned order have the same grid value
2. For both the planned orders :
Special Stock is E u2013 Orders on hand,
Consumption is V,
Sales order is the same (As we are using MTO , Strategy 21) and same WBS element.
3. First planned order is not in the assigned tab of MD04. This means that has been allocated to some object. u2013 I didu2019nt got this point. Can u please elaborate?
@ Nikhil
1. Quantity of sales order is not reducing after firming the sales order
2. Account assignment category for both the planned orders is u201CZu201D - Indiv.cust./project
I have made some more observations and found the following differences between the two planned orders
From MD04 , keep the cursor on corresponding planned order
& click on upward arrow ( available on bottom side of the report).
It will show what will be the originating requirements i e. for which requirements this planned order generated.
For Firmed planned order it is taking me to screen u201CPegged Requirements
u201D*And the following data is present:
Planned dates: 04.07.2010
MRP element No. 3100001185 (Sales Order No.)

Release Strategy not working for MRP generated PR

I have one qurey. Currently we are release strategy for normal PR.Now client want to activate release strategy for MRP generated PR.
current Release Strategy for normal PR configured as following.
Purchase requisition document     RV
Purchase requisition document     ZADV
Purchase requisition document     ZIMP
Purchase requisition document     ZSER
Purchase requisition document     ZSTD
Purchase requisition document     ZSTR
Purchasing group     A01
Total value of requisition for     > 1.00 INR
Creation indicator (purchase r     Realtime (manual)
Overall release of purchase re     Yes
For MRP generated PR I add creation indicator B - Material requirements Planning.Even after add creation indicator release strategy is not triggering for PR.
To trigger PR any setting need to do other than add creation indicator.
Regards
Sathish

Hi
You don't have to include creation indicator as parameter. Check in what documnet type MRP PR is generated. You can see it in t.code OMDT. At document type level also you can manage it. You need to include creation indicator only if a seperate person approves MRP generated PR.
To know how to configure release procedure see the below link

After PO , PR again Generating through MRP.

Hello To All.
I have Problem that, We have done our PR from MRP (MD51).
PO is Creating from that PR.
But when we once again run the MRP, system again generating PR.
Please reply.
Regard,
Riten Patewl

Riten,
MRP will review the entire supply/demand situation and will generate proposals (purchase requisitions in your case) based on the configuration you are using. You have not given enough information to enable anyone to determine what is the problem. According to the symptoms you are describing, If the Purchase req was converted in its entirety to a purchase order, including dates, then either the demand situation has changed, or you have a rescheduling horizon conflict that does not allow MRP to consider the newly created PO. You can tell this by reviewing the exception messages.
A couple of other thoughts that may also be contributing to the issue. A common mistake that people make is that they believe that a Pur Req is deleted when converted to a Purchase order. In most cases, the purchase req is not deleted, but is instead treated by MRP/MD04 as 'replaced' by the Purchase order. In addition, it is also marked as 'fixed'.
If you convert a PR to a PO, but not the entire quantity, the PR will still show on your MRP listings for the balance. If you later delete the purchase order, then the original purchase req will reappear in the MRP listings, as 'fixed'. If you create a Purchase order manually for the same quantity (not convert), then the purchase req will remain (but unfixed) until the next MRP run.
