MRP Forecast Template

HI,
Im currently forecasting alot of products to put through the MRP process (around 100). This needs to be done around 8 times a week. My question is that, is there anyway of creating a forecast template I could open with all products listed and I could just change the quantities and the template would still be there after these changes. Currently if I change a previous forecast and delete a few products these changes are saved and so it becomes very tedious to check if all products are present.

Hi Sols,
You can find any Forecast, right click somewhere in the top, and click duplicate. All the info as per your "template" will be in the new Forecast. You can then make your changes and add the new Forecast.
Regards
Carin

  • MRP Forecasting Run

    Hi Gurus,
    Need your expert advice on one of our issues.
    We have a requirement that AMC should be taken for the past 6 months regardless if there is any usage or not. Standard behaviour is that during MRP Forecasting run, zero values in the earlier historical values are not taken into account.
    For instance forecast period is set to '6' however, only last period has a value of 19.17 and others are zero in the historical data.
    When we execute the forecast run system actually considers as 1 month even if we defined 6 month.
    If standard SAP doesn't  cater for the above,  is there a  way to twig the system to achieve the above objective? If yes, how can this address the zero usage and can it be restricted for a specific group of users?
    Thanks.

    Dear Poster
    You have created a thread in the SRM (Supplier Relationship Management) area, is this correct? The issue reported seems like it should belong to an ERP or similar forum? Let us know of this issue refers at all to SMR_SERVER and we can proceed with assistance otherwise I will move your thread to a  more suitable forum if SRM is not your issue!

  • Interested in bringing Past Due forecast from MRP Forecast Sets to ASCP

    We are on 12.1.3 (EBS and ASCP) and are interested in bringing a week of past due forecast from MRP Forecast set into ASCP. We are running EDD plan.
    Following have been enabled but no luck yet, open to suggestions or explanations.
    1. Include Past Due Forecast = 5
    2. Spread Forecast Evenly = checked (as we are in weekly buckets)
    3. Demand Time Fence control = checked on plan options
    4. Item are enabled for Demand Time Fence days = 0
    5. Complete Collections and Plan have been ran.
    Observation - Since the week start date is on Monday, when the plan ran from Tuesday, it brings the forecast for current week from Tuesday of that week onwards breaking into days. But it doesn't bring in forecast for Monday or prior week days.
    Per ASCP guide, Include Past Due Forecast is useful only in case of Oracle Demand Planning.
    Any help in this regards is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • MD21 and MRP forecasting

    Hello,
    I am running MRP(forecast based) and found that system does make changes in planning file(MD21),
    if there are changes made in GR/GI, scrap, Materials master and PO  etc.
    But does not make change, if these changes are in Sales order, new sales order, creation delivery and picked by TO/WM etc...
    My understanding is that if new sales  order created/deliveries changed, if should add made the entry in MD21 as all these changes and run with MRP as these are recorded in MD04.
    Other thing is: Processing Indicator, after making PGI, it did not reset the indicator. I have checked fully may be qty was smal l!!
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    JPS

    Hello
    Please try to provide more details when opening a thread, so that people can understand exactly what is your problem.
    I have searched for a functionality called "Interactive Graphics" and the only reference that I found was on Sales and Operations Planning (PP-SOP):
    Sales & Operations Planning (LO-LIS-PLN) - SAP Library
    Are these the same interactive graphics refered on your thread? If this is the case, there is no such functionality on MRP.

  • MRP- Forecast

    Hi All Expert,
    I am using SAP 2007 B PL04 my question is :
    When we are ruunning MRP we are considering following document:
    1)  Purchase Order
    2)  Production Order
    3)  Sales Order
    4)  Forecast
    On the Second Run if we left some Purchase order/ Production Order from the order recommadation report
    The MRP wizard will not pick up the data from the order recommadation report. Is  there any way to consider Last forecast or the Purchase order/Production Order in the  fresh MRP Run.
    Ashish Gupte

    Hi Marcella
    When we Run MRP thru some forecast we will get result and we save the Order Rec. Report. From the order rec. Report we can generate the purchase order and the production order. But the scenario is suppose if we cannot generate the Purchase order and the production order from the order recom. report. It lies in that report.
    Second time when we Run the MRP i want to consider that pending purchase order and the production order which lies in the earlier order recm. report.
    Is this possible thru some development or other way. Pls suggest.

    Dear guru,
    In MM01/MM02 when i create a new mrp area for a material I want Mrp profile field and forecast profile field as mandatory field. Or as alternative solution purposed with a default.
    How can I do that ?

    Dear Murugesan ,
    in OMSR i make the mrp profile (MDMA-DISPR) and forecast profile (MDMA-PROPR)
    as required entries in the screen sequence.
    But when I create/change mrp area fields the system don’t consider as required these fields.
    Are you sure that the field selection for data screen is concerning also for mrp area fields ?
    Thanks.

  • MRP & Forecast Profile

    Hi  there,
                  When we mainatain Forecast Profile (T-code - MP30).. we have two colums to be checked for differrent fields Fixed value & Default value.
    But we cannot set both the indicator at the same time for a field i.e  both the fixed value & default value checked.
    Same is also applicable for MRP Profile - MMD1
    Then why SAP has provided a check box instead of radio button .
    Please suggest me the same .
    Regards
    Kaushik Choudhury

    Hi kaushik,
    Default value - Indicator that specifies whether the field is copied to the material master record as a default value; that is, the value can then be overwritten in the material master record
    whereas
    Fixed Value - Indicator that specifies whether the corresponding field is copied to the material master record as a fixed value; that is, the value cannot then be overwritten in the material master record

  • MRP/Forecast Profiles - Program RMMM0001

    Hi,
    anyone out there knows how to turn off the program RMMM0001? It will run whenever a MRP or Forecast Profile is changed or Deleted.
    In addition, can this auto-schedule be configured? That is, only run whenever change is done (even default value change) and no run if profile is deleted.

  • Unexpected MRP Forecast

    We have a very peculiar situation within Oracle.
    Somehow, a statistical forecast was generated for quantity 1 for EVERY sku we have loaded into Oracle. As well, we had just created a user for a new employee. Somehow his name is tied to these records. As well, the forecast will not drop off. Does anyone know how this could happen?

  • MRP+forecast(past data)

    Hello experts
    is there any way to use past data(such as invoices etc) in MRP in order to make comparisons from early years?
    what i want to do is to have a bried look what happened last year this period in my system. unfortunatelly, i did not use it earlier, so i am not able to have a brief look in my saved scenarios
    i was thinking if there is a way to import somehow these data into the MRP
    thanks a lot for your time!

    Hi Fasolis.......
    You can not take the Invoices into consideration while MRP.
    Invoice means Stock Data and you are generating Recommendations based on Instock, Ordered and Commited.
    As you have not used MRP for Past data unfortunately it is not possible to get that history.

  • MRP - Forecast date not loaded

    Hi experts,
    In planning production we use a program to generate forecast for one year (weekly period basis). This program uses the BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE function. We are trying to plan this year to febrery until december and we loaded the requirement schedule data, but as a result, we get schedule planning since may until december only.
    I tried testing through SE37 the BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE function, but the problem persist, so I have thought there is a problem at customizing, but I have not found where.
    I appreciate any idea to help me resolve this issue.
    Best regards
    José

    In my system it's creating without any problem, I would suggest you to check the following
    1. When you run it in SE37 (I ran it with period indicator = 3 (month, check your indicator)), see if you got the success message for the number of entries in the table RESULT is same as REQUIREMENTS_SCHEDULE_IN
    REQUIREMENTS_SCHEDULE_IN           11 Entries
                     Result:           11 Entries
    REQUIREMENTS_CHAR_IN               0 Entries
                     Result:           0 Entries
    RETURN                             0 Entries
                     Result:           0 Entries
    In MD63 check the planning horizon range you're giving to view the table values.
    Also see if you're looking at the right version you gave in the SE37

  • MRP Forecast - Formatted search

    Hi all experts.
    I have created a UDF on the forecast report in SAP. Here I would like to list Alternative Items connected to the item number on each row. I have the following formatted search query:
    SELECT T1.[AltItem] FROM OITM T0  INNER JOIN OALI T1 ON T0.ItemCode = T1.OrigItem
    where t0.itemcode = $[ORCM.itemcode]
    This works fine when I trigger it with SHIFT+F2. But I would very much like this field to get data when I execute the report. I don't want it to be a manual task to trigger the query. I have tried setting this up by using standard settings of automatic update in the formatted search - but it will not fire the query.
    Any suggestions?
    Best regards, Runar Wigestrand.

    Dear Runar,
    The Formatted Seach (FMS) works when there is an 'Event' performed by the user on that particular B1 Window. This input can be in the form of 'Shift+F2 or also if there is a change which the user initiated in the values on that Window. So depending on this the values int he specific field will change.
    In essence, what I mean is that there has to be a User Initiated actions which has to occur on that particular B1 Window and only then the FMS would work.
    For more information on FMS, please have a look at the following link :
