MRP for Make to Stock Production 10 Strategy

Dear All,
I am using strategy 10. But when i run MRP system also creates plan order for sales order too. Guide me where i am missing something

check the procurement tab in sale order
whats your requirement type ?
is it KSL, if not select the KSL from drill down.

Requirement Strategy: 10 Anonymous make-to stock production

Dear Guru,
I'm trying to test the requirement strategy 10 - Anonymous make-to stock production and I'd expect that the good issue should consume the forecast as explained in the SAP help http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/e6/28dadc939241469dd64f0eb925f328/content.htm
"SAP APO delivers standard requirement strategies:
10 Anonymous make-to stock production
In this strategy no consumption takes place. The planned independent requirements are reduced when the goods issue is posted in SAP R/3
I have create a sales orders in R/3, I have the Integration model properly configured (sales orders and requirement reduction are flagged) but when I post good issue the forecast is not reduced.
I have changed the master data to the strategy "20 Planning with final assembly", and in that case, the forecast is reduced either by sales orders and by good issues.
In customizing I have the same category group for both the requirement strategies.
Any idea how can I consume the forecast only at good issue?
Thanks in advance
Regards
A.M.

Dear Mantione,
The allocation indicator in R/3 and assignment mode in APO should definitely be same, then only consumption will happen. Please see the check mode in APO and requirements class in R/3 also. Usually 50 will be used for requirements class, but it is a general rule that for consumption to happen requirements class and allocation indicator(in R/3) should match with check mode and assignment mode respectively(in APO) along with the consumption mode and related strategies.
You can check the consulting note 159937 for the prerequisites for consumption to take place.
So i kindly request you to maintain similar settings and re-test your issue.
Thanks and Regards,
Nithin.

Availability check for Make to stock and Make to Order

Dear All,
Client is selling Make to stock and make to Order material.
How and what settings need to do for Avaialbility check.or we can use standard one.
I hope in case of Make to Order availability check may not happen.
Please correct me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Shrikant

hi,
yes for make to order we dont have AvChk. for make to stock items u need to follow the
below configuration.
Availability check
1. Availability check is an integral part of the business process that determines if the required delivery quantity can be met on a required delivery date. For this purpose the system takes into account pre-delivery activities such as scheduling for picking or packing times and the time taken to produce or obtain the material. It also performs several background functions such as Backorder processing, rescheduling and ATP quantities.
2. Backorder processing: processing of a sales order that has not been fully confirmed or not confirmed at a certain delivery date.
3. Rescheduling: is a proposal of how u2013 confirmed quantities already assigned to a sales order can be reassigned to other sales orders that have a higher priority.
4. Available to promise (ATP): is a process of checking the available quantities of a material. The ATP quantity consists of warehouse stock + planned receipts (incoming stock) u2013 planned issues (outgoing stock). to examine stock on hand (CO09) proceed to logistics u2013 sales & distribution u2013 sales u2013 environment u2013 availability overview.
5. Replenishment lead time (RLT): is the time taken for the material to become available either internally (in house production) or externally (from a vendor). The most important things to consider during an external procurement are purchasing and MRP 2 (procurement) views of MMR where the processing time for purchasing, planned delivery time and goods receipt processing time are taken into account. On the other hand internal procurement is based on in house production time (MRP 2 view) goods receipt processing time or alternatively RLT time, which is found on MRP 3 view.
6. RLT (Replenishment Lead Time) is the time taken for the material to become available. RLT is only used when doing an ATP check (Available To Promise). The value of RLT for a material is specified on material master record.
7. There are three types of availability checks u2013
Check on basis of ATP quantities.
Check against product allocation.
Check against planning.
Configuring Availability check through Checking Groups u2013
1. The checking group + checking rule determine how the availability check is to be performed.
2. The checking group determines whether and how the system checks the stock availability and generates requirements for material planning. The checking group defines what type of requirements will be passed on i.e. summarized requirements (daily/weekly) or individual requirements for each sales order.
3. The checking rule applies to how the availability check is to be carried out at the transaction level. Note that you must define checking rules for each individual application such as for production orders for example. In Sales and Distribution, the checking rule is specified internally within the system and cannot be changed.
4. The checking rule, in conjunction with the checking group, determines the scope of the availability check for every business operation; that is, which stocks, receipts and issues are to be included in the availability check and whether the check is to be carried out with or without the replenishment lead time.
5. Briefly explaining the above u2013 checking group determines which type of requirement to be passed on to MRP whether it be individual or summarized and checking rule which is at the transaction level and can be configured independently for each application module, determines which stocks, receipts and issues to be taken into account. For performing an availability check checking group has to work in conjunction with checking rule.
6. Advantages of individual processing over summarized processing u2013
Backorder processing is possible.
You can access (MD04) order, line and schedule line individually which gives a greater control on available stock and requirements placed on stock.
The system automatically uses individual requirements in case of special stock items.
7. Required data for the Availability check to be carried out u2013
The Availability check must be switched on at the requirement class level.
The Availability check must be set at the schedule line level.
A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found.
A plant must be defined in the sales order for each schedule line item (in other words plant must be defined for every material in MMR).
A checking group must be defined in the material master record in the MRP3 screen in the availability check field.
8. Configuring Availability check and defining Checking Groups u2013
Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
SAP standard checking groups are 01 u2013 summarized requirements and 02 u2013 individual requirements or you can create your own by copying the standard ones.
Total sales and total deliveries columns are there to configure a checking rule to sum up requirements to post to MRP either individually or by day or week.
Block quantity required can be set if you want several users to be able to process the material simultaneously in different transactions without blocking each other.
The no check indicator is CHECKED when you DO NOT want the system to carry out ATP check.
9. Defining material block for other users u2013 the block check box is an indicator that enables you to block material master records of a particular material during the availability check and restrict other users from accessing same master record and reserve the material. If the block is not set, two users can confirm the same material at the same time for two different orders, not knowing if the stock is available or not. If you select this field, the material is blocked during the availability check and other users cannot: a) Make changes in the material master record. b) Create purchase orders for the material. C) Create orders for the material.
10. Defining default values for checking groups - Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
However if there is no entry present in the material master record for the checking group, a default value can be set here, depending on material type and plant.
This default value will be used by the system depending on the material type mentioned in MMR and plant in sales order.
If an entry exists, this default value is over written by MMR.
11. Controlling Availability Check u2013 in this section, you tell the system what stock on hand and what inward and outward movements of stock it must take into account when performing the availability check in addition to whether or not to consider the replenishment lead time.
12. These settings are based on the checking group that is assigned to the material master record and the checking rule that is predefined and assigned to the sales and distribution transaction.
13. These settings carry out control both for sales order and delivery as well. This is due to the fact that you may want to include specific stock or incoming stock for the sales order, yet at the time of the delivery only include physical stock on hand waiting to be shipped.
14. It is possible to indicate to the system that you would like the availability check NOT TO CHECK the stock at the storage location level. This indicator is used to set the scope of the availability check.
15. It is used to switch off the check at storage location level. You create a reservation for a particular storage location. However, the scope of the availability check is set in such a way as to exclude the storage location. In this case, the system carries out the check at plant level only and does not take the storage location into account that is specified in the reservation.
16. Should you not want the system to automatically check RLT, you may indicate so here. RLT is the time taken for a material to become available. It is only used when doing an ATP check and is taken from MMR.
17. Defining the elements in the availability check entirely depends on the business needs, but a few tips are given under u2013
When controlling the Availability check at the time of the sales order, a purchase requisition does not necessarily indicate by it is going to come into the plant.
A shipping notification on the other hand - a confirmed purchase order u2013 is a good indicator of receiving stock on a specified date.
It is always recommended not to select the shipping notifications for the delivery requirements type as you may not actually receive the stock into plant or warehouse for which you are creating a delivery.

Forecast Consumption in SNP for Make-to-Order products

We are working on using APO-SNP for Make-to-order products (PlngStrategyGroup = "81" in R/3). We want to achieve normal forecast consumptino on FinishedGoodLevel and generate PlndOrders which shall derive component demand for purchasing (such PlndOrers wont be released to production - they should only function as demand driven on component level)
What we have done so far: Forecast in APO-DP on Finished good level exists and has been released to SNP. The product gets "ciffed" from R/3 into APO material master with planning strategy group "20" (which is basically "make-to-stock") --> we were hoping this would allow us to use "normal" forecast consumption but nothing happens (FCST is not being consumpted by open Sales orders). Within the product view of such products APO is still "realizing" that this is a make-to-order product.
Any other ideas / thoughts what could be done to achieve "normal" forecast consumption on FGI level for make-to-order products in APO-SNP ?
Tks !

I checked in /n/SAPAPO/RRP3 (Product View), unfortunately only FC exists there
Seems that the open Sales Orders from R/3 are being created within another segment (the "element" Tab of RRP3 shows 2 segments:
1) "Make-to-stock" (which contains the FC)
2) "Make-to-order" (which contains the Sales Orders)
That might explain the issue I see (FC and SOs are in different planning segment --> no consumption). Reading about planning segments in the help sounds like I need to find a way to bring Sales Orders for Make-to-Order products into the Make-to-stock segment ... jus a thought .. any idea how to do this ? Does that mean I need to modify the CIF for Sales Order transfer for Make-to-order products ?
Tks

The reporting point backflush is not possible for make-to-stock repetitive

Hi All,
we are using the assembly backflush in the MTS REM process. we are need to do the reporting point backflush
if we tick against the RP backflush. what will be the effect in the process while confirmation.
i read the sap library . it say like
The reporting point backflush is not possible for make-to-stock repetitive manufacturing.
is it correct.
Thanks
VRaj

Hi mangal,
i did all the setting as you said. but when click on the reporting point.
system thru error
Error reading reporting point information
Message no. RM111
Diagnosis
The repetitive manufacturing profile is set for the reporting point procedure. However, either no reporting points exist for the material or they are incorrect. Two common reasons for this are:
The repetitive manufacturing profile has been changed in the current session.
You have not defined any milestone operations in the routing.
When creating the product cost collector, no reporting points were created.
Procedure
Two alternative solutions are possible:
Assign a repetitive manufacturing profile with no reporting point procedure to the material in the material master record.
Recreate the reporting points by recosting the product cost collector. To do this, the following prerequisites must be met:
In the material master record, in the production version, you must enter a routing under either detailed planning (first priority) or under rate-based planning (second priority).
Milestone operations must exist in this routing. The system ususally automatically creates the reporting points from these milestones when creating a product cost collector or when creating a production version.

The definition of Organization structure might not allow you to do so
Please go throught the following link in detail http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/f4/7d3f9344af11d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Summary from the above link is as mentioned below
You can plan material requirements at plant level or for different MRP areas. With MRP at plant level, the system adds together stocks from all of the individual storage locations, with the exception of individual customer stock, to determine total plant stock. The requirements are combined in the planning run and procurement elements are created for these pegged requirements with unknown sources. Individual storage locations can be planned separately or be excluded from planning.
In the case of material requirements planning on an MRP area level, only the stocks from the storage locations or subcontractor assigned to the respective MRP area are taken into account. Only the requirements in this MRP area are combined and procurement elements are created for them. This enables you to plan material requirements specifically for certain areas.

Make to Order & Make to Stock - Hybrid strategy

Dear colleagues, Have any of you set up a mixed manufacturing strategy where the top level in Bills of Materials is driven by 'Make to Order' with hard pegging between sales orders and production orders, and as you down in the bills of material, we want to promote more of a Make to stock philosophy where there is no hard pegging between sales orders and production orders. Our structure is a multi level ( 5 levels) BOM with the intermediates being assemblies or subassemblies.
Have you come across this type of situation in your experience ? If yes, what approach / strategies have you adopted before? What are the unique settings that you may have used to drive the above strategy?
Regards,
Pavan

Rajesh, Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate it.
Here are a couple of other questions.
Do you have situations, where the top level MTO may be driving MTO at assembly level, which is driving a MTS at sub assembly level?
Any thoughts on how you have enforced the pegging with sales orders at BOM levels below the FGs will be helpful.
regards,
Pavan

Unable to carry out MRP for make-to-order

Dear All,
I have a six level Bill of Material ( BOM ) .I am using planning strategy 20 make-to-order producton.
There is no stock for any of these materials.
Now when i try to run mrp on sales order basis it is not planning for all the levels of the BOM.The MRP Stops planning at 3 or 4th level.The MRP Run does not give any error.
Is there any setting to carry out MRP out MRP for all level of BOM?
I checked the setting in 0001 plant and compared them with my plant they are same.THE SYSTEM IS DOING MRP IN 0001 PLANT FOR ALL LEVELS
so pleses help me on these issue.
Regards
Prashant

Hy Prashant,
If you want to carry out MRP with MD50 for all levels of BOM then check this things,
For all the BOM components (up to last level) check in MRP 4 view of Material master
- Individual / Collective - It should be Individual or Individual/Collective.
If is maintain as Collective then you will not get planing Proposals though MD50.
- For all BOM headers Materials (Fert , Halb ) check in MRP 4 view for MRP for Dependent requirement should be maintain as Dependent requirement are Planned
Check the above things and if not maintain then maintain it and then run MRP with MD50.You will get the Planing proposals for all levels of BOM.

Overdelivery shipping for make-to-order production

Hello,
I have the following business scenario example:
We have a make-to-order production of carton boxes.
A customer places an order for 1000 UN.
Production is always planned with an overdelivery tolerance so the actual produced quantity for that particular order is 1050 UN.
The customer allows an overdelivery of 10% so it should be fine to ship the 1050 UN.
When I create the outbound delivery, the system creates it for the exact sales order amount: 1000 UN, even though there are 1050 UN produced for that order and item. So right now, the user has to manually modify the delivery quantity to match the actual stock.
Is there a standard way of configuring the system so that in the delivery creation the system selects the entire produced quantity (respecting the overdelivery tolerance)??
Do I need a user exit for this? In that case, which one should I use and what would be the logic for it?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Unfortunately there is no easy way to influence delivery quantity in delivery processing by user exit or customer function.
At creation of an delivery FORM USEREXIT_BATCH_DETERMINATION in include MV50AFZZ would be the best option to influence the delivery quantity. Despite the name of this user exit it could be used for changing normal items as well and the main advantage of this user exit is that the ATP check is done afterwards.
If you change the delivery quantity please be aware that you have to ensure the consistency of all delivery quantity fields at item level (LIPS-LFIMG, LIPS-LGMNG, LIPS-LFIMG_FLO, LIPS-LGMNG_FLO). You could use FORM LIPS_QUAN_SET (Include FV50XFLP_LIPS_QUAN_SET) to synchronize all the quantity fields.

Harry

Mrp for make to order scenario

hi gurus,
I have got a different and challenging scenario in make to order planning. production planning has to be made on sales order basis.for eg : a particular finished product, a sale order of 100 nos is generated. but all 100 nos cannot be produced in single plant. so it has to be distributed to 2-3 plants. one more thing is, for make to order scenario, there is no fixed lot size. based on sale order quantity, planned order is created irrespective of fixed lot size maintained in material master. IF my batch size is fixed, for make to order also based on fixed based size, planned order has to be created.
Can anybody suggest a better solution for this scenario?
Thank you all in advance. all useful replies will be rewarded.
regards,
senthil

Hello,
For MTO, Lot for Lot order quantity is defaulted..
So your receipt element will be as per your Sales Order.
Try this:
In T. Code : OMI4, for Lot Size : EX
Change the MTO Lot size to "1" Lot-for-Lot with rounding.
(Which is Blank by default - lot-for-lot)
Maitain the Rounding Value in MRP-1 Screen or Use Rounding Profile..
This Helps..

Siva

Initial settings required for Made to Stock -10 strategy.

Dear Frndz,
Kindly help me with the step by step procedure to do the initial (SPRO) settings required in SAP PP to carryout the Made to Stock -10 strategy in the system.
Regards,
Srini

Hi,
For MTS, maintaining the Planning Starategy 10 in Mtrial MAster is the Only thing we need to do.
System by default will do the rest of the things for you.
In MD61, system will propose Requirements Type LSF.
Sales Order will be for Inforamtion Purpose.
PIR will be reduced after PGI to the SO.
If you require any specific thing pl. inform.

MRP for make to order

Dear All,
I have a material with make to order strategy 20. now when sales order comes, MRP plans material on the basis of that order. but client wants that when order comes then they can start production. but in sap, after order mrp plans material then procurement starts and after procurement production is started.
Now my requirement is that though material is make to order but is it possible that we can plan materials before order. otherwise guide me how can i cater client's requirement.

now when sales order comes, MRP plans material on the basis of that order. but client wants that when order comes then they can start production.
assuming: once the production order is received, they will start production means, Dependent material have stock, In that case use Strategy 82. once sale order received, production order will create automatically.
For dependent material use strategy 70
Or use strategy 50, Enter PIR to start producing Dependent material, once the sale order received, you can convert the plan order into production order

Using different UOMs for same material (stock, production, sales)

Hi,
here is our scenario:
1. A material that we sell is 10 meters long in its full length.
2. We want to be able to sell it in any length. E.g. 2 meters, 4 meters, 5 meters, etc.
3. The by-product will be 10 meters - the sold length and should be kept in stock.
4. The same material should be kept in stock at seperate lengths and we/warehouse want to be able to see how many of each length are kept in stock. E.g. 10 PCs of 5 Meters, 5 PCs of 10 meters etc.
Any ideas how this would best be solved?

hi Kenneth,
U can activate batch management for ur product.
Create class(class type=023) having characteristics length and values wat u want to maintain,
after that assign ur class in mm02 in classification view and maintain ur stock in batches
in mmbe u can see ur stock batch wise
please come back if more clearification

MRP FOR On order stock

hi
Can anybody pls tell me does system consider open PO qty, On order stock qty(rejected materials), Open PR qty while MRP run.
If yes How does it happen?
If suppose I want system not to consider above stock in MRP run,
How can I do It?
Pls suggest..
Pravin

Hi,
I am not sure what you mean by "on order stock qty" (rejected materials), but if you are using MRP type PD it will look at all documents and items that will affect stock (POs, Planned orders, requisitions, sales orders, production orders, PM orders etc. etc.).
This is not configurable or changeable because the logic of PD is "Full planning" or "Plan Deterministic" (determining everything that affects stock).
You have some minor control over things such as "stock in transafer" and "blocked stock", you can decide if MRP should ignore or include these. But if you use PD then all of the above will be considered.
You can use other MRP types such as reorder point planning and this ignores all of the above and just maintains the stock levels above or equal to the reorder point. (although you can even configure reorder point MRP to take orders etc. into consideration).
So unless you switch to reorder point planning or forecast planning you will find that the above types of document / orders will be considered by MRP.
