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...

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.

To run the mrp for the selected 3 or 4 materials together in plant

Hello guys,
Is it possible to run the mrp in a plant for selected 3 or 4 finished material together?
As far as my knowledge is concerned its not possible.In scope of planning or mrp area you can group couple of plants or storage locations but not the materials.Am i right?

Hi,
You can use MRP user exit (M61X0001), where you can define user exit key for MRP type, MRP controller or External procurement key. So you can group these materials into one MRP controller and then you can use that user exit key to run MRP for that MRP controller materials.
Thanks,

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.

MRP for BOM materials

Hello,
Actually , I have a finished good ( parent material) which is a BOM and is made out of two raw material items ( child material).
But, I am unable to see any short term or long term requirements for this two raw material items in MD04 and MS05.
Is their any special configuration need to be carried out for the requirements on the raw materials.
Thanks

Dear
First Check MRP Values are maintain in Material Master or Not For your FG & Raw materials.
Are you run the MRP for the FG Product?
If yes than after requirement is Come in MD04.
thanks

Creation of PRs for materials in stock

Hi,
When i run MRP for a finished product, many PRs are created for raw materials in stock also. Why this is happening?.Is this because of planning strategy in MD02 .We are using planning strategy 20.Pls suggest a way to stop creation of PRs for a material in stock.
regards
Ashok

Hi Ashok
Try Strategy - 40 VSF Planning with final assembly
Stocks on hand reduces the PIR during MRP run. e.g. if stock is 100 and PIR is 100, MRP run will not prompt 100 for procurement. if stock is 0 and PIR is 100, MRP run will prompt 100 for procurement.
This strategy should solve your problem. Just simulate this in ur test system and verify the results.

MRP for MRP type VB

Hi,
In order to run MRP for the materials related to consumption based planning (VB) in transaction MDBT / MD01 i have followed below link and activated user exit but when i run MRP, it is considering even MRP type PD. When we try to put break point in debug mode program is not considering this exit itself. Has anyone has implemented this exit? Let me know the correct procedure.
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-32041
Regards / US

Dear Uma good morning.
I will have to agree with what Mariano is saying and i will take it a little bit further.
Some time ago, in my company we were asked to implement an MRP solution where MRP should run with specific settings (different than what stands for all other materials) for only 2 MRP controllers. We followed the procedure Mariano describes but with one addition.
At the lowest part of the MD01 screen, there are two boxes, User Exit Keys and User Exit Parameters. In the first box we entered the User Exit Key we created (using Mariano's procedure) and in the box User Exit Parameters we entered "IEQ(MRPcontroller1)/IEQ(MRPcontroller2). IEQ stands for "Include Equal". So, whenever MRP was running with this variant, it was running only for the materials that belong to these two specific controllers.
Of course, you will have to also change your standard MRP variant, by writing to the User Exit Parameters box "EEQ(mrpcontroller1)/EEQ(mrpcontroller2). EEQ stands for "Exclude Equal. This way, your MRP when running on this second variant it will run only for the resto of the materials, excluding (not running again in other words) the materials of the first variant.
You can find the document which describes the complete procedure here (it also describes the steps Mariano is talking about):

MRP for Scheduled Maintenance Plan

Hello here!
Please help me.
I customised MRP type VB (Manual Reorder Point Planning).
Then I created monthly Task List with some components from materials.
In next step i assigned my Task List to my Maintanance Plan.
I Scheduled and Started my Maintanance Plan (from 30.07.2011).
If I run MRP(01.08.2011) and Work Order was created (30.07.2011) - everything work great. MRP will create Purchase Requisition.
But i need to customise MRP for posibility of creating Purchase Requisition for future Work Order's(30.08.2011, 30.09.2011 etc)
It is posible?
Thanks you and sorry for my english.

Work Order (Maintenance Order) will be created based on scheduling. In case of any stock items, Maintenance order will create the reservation.
If you run the MRP for that material, based on stock availability, MRP run will create PR.
As you are using Reorder Point Planning, system will consider that material only when the available stock comes below the Reorder point.
So you can keep safety stock by considering future orders as well, so that MRP will create PRs for future work orders.

MRP for FG not looking at Raw Material

HI all,
I'm running MRP for finished goods material against my production plan (created in MD61).   The material has a BOM component but when I run MRP for the FG its not looking at BOM component to consider raw material) availability and thus proposing dates solely based on the Production Plan and not any other requirements.
It simple creates the planned orders based on the production plan entered into MD61. The dates for the planned orders don't take into consideration that on the suggested Production date there is not enough raw material to actual produce the product.
The Production plan does drive requirements to purchase the raw material but the dates are not neccessarily correct to get product to the warehouse on time for production run.
FG set up:
RP Type:                                PD - MRP
Lot Size:                                 EX u2013 Lot-for-lot Order Quantity
Safety Stock:                         125 - EA
Availability Check:                   02 u2013 Individual Requirements
Procurement Type:                   E - In-House Production
In-house Production:                 1 - days
Planning Strategy:                   10 u2013 Make-to-stock production
BOM / Raw Material set up:
RP Type:                                PD - MRP
Lot Size:                                 EX u2013 Lot-for-lot Order Quantity
Availability Check:                   02 u2013 Individual Requirements
Procurement Type:                    F - External Purchased
Pland Del Time:                         3 - days
GR Process time                       1 - days
Planning Strategy:                   40 u2013 Planning with Final Assembly
How do I get the MRP for the FG to not only create the planned orders from the production plan but also take into consideration raw material availability?   Thanks for your help!!

VC,
I need to the PlndOrd date for FG to take into consideration raw material availability...otherwise it's pretty useless to the site.
I guess you are unfamiliar with the workings of standard MRP. MRP in ECC as delivered by SAP will not support this requirement.
There are a couple of assemble to order strategies that may be suitable for you, if all of your RM materials exist in the FGs BOM. Strat 81 and 82, which are intimately linked to the Sales order ATP check. These strategies are not compatible with FGs forecasts.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/EN/41/19206a45fd11d188ff0000e8322f96/frameset.htm
In SAP ERP, MRP just does not check the availability of components during the MRP run. The Net Requirements calculation of a component part (which is the closest concept within MRP to an Availability check) takes place ONLY after all parent parts are completely planned, and all parent part planned orders have been already been generated and saved. In effect, when MRP is running, information is neither gathered nor considered as to what the planning situation will be for the components.
APO has several solutions that, depending upon the detailed requirements, might provide a solution. A common one is to first run an MRP type heuristic, to create planned orders for all the shortages, and subsequently run a 'Bottom-up' scheduling heuristic to bring supply and demand dates into alignment, based upon pegging information. ERP does not have this functionality.
Of course, SAP ERP is infinitely modifiable. If you have enough time and money, you can write custom code that will torture ERP into filling any Business Requirement.

MRP for Service Order

Hi Friends,
My client want to run the MRP according to Material Group and according to service order.What are the possible ways to run the MRP? How my problem can be resolved?Please reply...
Regards,

Hi Edit,
The question is not to run MRP for Service materials, - to run MRP for the Materials in a Service Order.
I have one service order in which I have raised requirement for 10 materials (eg. Raw materials).
MRP can be run Plant wise or Material wise.If I run Plant wise MRP, system will gather all the requirement that are required in the plant (including Sales order, Service order, Prod order etc..).
If I run the MRP Material wise, system will gather the requirement of that material in all types of orders.
But the requirement is to run the MRP only for a particular Service order (only for the materials and quantities required in the given Service order) and generate PR and PO for procurement. The material may also be required for another service order, sales order or prod order. MRP should not gather the requirement for other orders.
Hope my explanation is clear. Prasanna, please post the correct scenario if there are any deviation in my understanding of your query.
I am also Looking for the solution. If any one have idea please help us to solve the issue.
Thanks,

Best MRP type and strategy to run MRP for component using PIR and forecast

Hi Experts,
I want to run MRP for Component parts. I need to run MRP based on Planned independent requirements and Forecast Data.
Which is the best suited MRP type and strategy.
Please help to share bestpractices if any. thank you.
Rayudu

Hi,
is the components you are talking are Semi finished materials or Raw materials and Packing materials which are procured from vendors ???....
It is not a good idea to maintain planning strategy for Components which are part of BOM...these materials are automatically planned when the header materials of these components are planned....
If these components are not part of any BOM then you can try the option of using forecast based planning.. MRP type VV and maintain the forecasting view in the material master
You can also explore the option of consumption based planning like manual or automatic reorder point planning...
Thanks

Preventing MRP for 541'd material

Hi all,
Sometimes we send expensive spare parts to other companies in case of emergency, and get them back when they have it in a few days.
When a material is sent to a vendor with 541 movement (Transfer posting unrestricted-use stock - stock of material provided
to vendor ), the MRP for that material should not create planned orders for that material. Because it is thousands of euros expensive and it will be back in stock in a few days.
After automatic MRP run, planned orders are checked in MD15 and these ones are removed from list for not to create purchasing requests for them.
What can be done to prevent MRP create planned orders for materials that a posted with 541 movement?
Thanks in advance,
Koray

Sales Order MRP for material

Dear all,
I am facing with some critical scenario ,we can share our views in this forum....
My Client is expecting one order...(He knows 101% he will get it ) so ,he will start to working on Procrument and production , it's a MTO order ...by that genuine order comes ....the expected order stock is 40% ready.
Now i need to stop the Expected order ,more over i need to transfer the stock to Expected to Genuine order...now againg i need to run the MRP for Genuine order.
Revert me back if you need more clarity.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
raj.

In that case, you generate the requirement via MD81 based on which, materials can be procured, produced and make ready for despatch.
Once the confirmed order is received, create a sale order for the entire quantity and during MRP run, system will consider the available stock and only for the remaining order quantity, system will throw the requirement.
thanks
