MRP: how to segregate the planned orders by dependent requirements

Hello SAP Guru's,
I would like to know if this is possible to make the MRP work is this way:
- generate global planned orders (by date) for several dependent requirements, for inhouse production;
- AND generate individual planned orders for each dependent requirement, for external procurement;
For the moment, it is grouping the quantities of all the dependent requirements to generate a unique planned order by date.
But we would like to get separate planned orders for each dependent requirements that are externally procured.
Do you think it is possible to do so? and if yes, how?
Thanks in advance for your help on this subject.
Regards,
Rudy

In MD04 the demand n supply that is seen is considered as plant segment. In some cases when you plan demand n supply for a given storage location separately it is called as SLoc segment, also if you're working with MRP areas then its called mrp area segment, likewise for project & sales order.
In short it is just a way MRP would do its planning. In normal cases, the demand n supply is in plant segment, so in this segment the least resolution that you can work with is a day, so all demand on a given day is clubbed together and a supply proposal is made (depending on the lot size).
If you want further split on a given day, then MRP needs some way to identify the difference & this is provided by the special stock segment such as project segment. To see how it works, if you're working with PS module, ask your PS colleague to create a demand for the material from different projects for a given day. Then in MD04 you will see each project demand show up in different segment & when you run MRP, you will see the results.
I guess more than me writing quite a lot out here, a simple test at your end should help clarify... good luck

How to view the planned orders in mass and how to delete in mass

Hi gurus,
How to view the planned orders in mass and how to delete in mass.
Regards
R.Rajakarthik

Hi,
Use the collective display of planned orders, transaction code MD16.
You can select the data by different options and choose which ones or all that you need to delete.
Click the Delete button to trash them.
This will delete planned orders without deleting the planned independent requirements and sales orders.
Hope it helps

Setting nedded for creation of Planned Order for Dependent Requirement.

Hi PP Gurus,
I have a one material for which I m running MRP which have three Components.
I m using strategy 10 for FG and SFG also.
When I m running MRP for FG the system is creation planned order for FG, but not for SFG even though no stock available for them.
I m using lot size EX for all SFG.
Please Help.
Thanks in Advance.

Dear ,
You should maintain proper MRP related parameters for both FG and SFG.Check all the MMR parameters :
1.MRP Type -PD for FG/SFG
2.Procurement Type -E for FG/SFG
3.Planning Startegy -10 in FG
4.BOM/Routing Explosion -Keep it Blank
5.Indiviaul/Collective Indicator -not applicable as it is MTS so keep it blank
6.Validity of BOM /Routing should be corrcet before MRP run in MD02-NETCH , 2,1,3,3,2
7.What is the Lot Sizing Set up-EX in OMI4-Scheduling Tab -Requirement date =Delievery Date and BOM Validity Date .
Ref .Re: MRP not plalned for dependent components
8.Check in MRP4 -MRP Dept Requirement Parametre should be balnk for plalling the SFG in MMR of FG -MM02
I hope this issue may be with BOM explosion as per the validity and lot size -schedueling set up .
Hope this will be useful

MRP not rescheduling the planned order by itself

Hi,
After MRP i could see that the planned order is not present as per the date of the requriement whereas the planned order at a future date is given a Exception message 30 : Plan accordingly to schedule and proposed the date of the requirement. The requirement is beyound the replenishement lead time and hence MRP should reschedule by itself the planned order as per the date of the requirement rather than giving a exception message as above for a future dated planned order.
I am not sure what is it i am missing. Could you explain.
Thank you

Dear ,
MRP will re schedule the planned order based couple of inputs and checks during MRP run .Basically , it depends on following
In MRP exectuion you should keep : Procesisng Indicator : NETPL: The system only plans materials that have undergone a change that is relevant to the planning run within the period which you defined as the planning horizon. The system sets the net change planning horizon indicator automatically for these materials
Planning Mode : 3-Delete and Re-create Planning
It also depend on following set up and you need to analysie that :
1.Planning Time Fence : based on the PTF , there will not be any automatic changes relevent for MRP
2.MRP Type : PD , it will adoped normal planning and it will not re-schedule order proposal automatically .In you case can use P1-Automatic Firming and Re-schedule Out Of Order Proposal based planning time Fence
3.Keep your Planning Horzon more than the Highest Material Lead Time in Material Master MRP2 View
Please check and revert

How to change the components of the planned order? (FM or BAPI)

I need to change the storage(LGORT) in the components.
I found only MD_PLDORD_CHANGE_COMP_ITEMS, but could not get the correct result.
Has anyone used this FM to change the components of the planned order?
Can you please tell how to use it. Or advise an alternative solution.

Hi Anton,
There's a BAPI to change planned orders - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CHANGE, but it allows to change only header data.
Therefore you'll have to go a bit longer, and use a couple of other BAPIs:
First read the order that you want to change - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_GET_DETAIL
Second, create a new planned order with the changed data, based on the read planned order - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CREATE.
Third, delete the old planned order - BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_DELETE.

MRP Run can not create Planned order to Sales order

Hi,
I have a problem with planning run to sales order. We have a configurable material which have make to order strategy. MRP Run does not create planned order to some of our sales order. I think it has relation with schedule lines but i can not understand the problem.
If schedule line has 1 as confirmed quantity MRP run can not plan but 0 as confirmed quantity MRP Run creates planned order. How can i solve this problem?
Regards,
techmastere

Hi,
Order for which qty is confirming, check which schedule line is determined and which requirement type system is determining.
then in VOV6 for schedule line tick mark availability check & Transfer of requirement
for requirement class OVZG tick mark availability check & Transfer of requirement
Note: if schedule line is not relevent for availability check & ToR then system always defaul confirm quantity.

Time scheduling by the Plan order (MD02)

Hi,
Does the the scheduling margin time be considered by (start and finish date) for plan order after MD02.
If yes how can I customize the system
Is the Time scheduling important for the plan order or only for the production order?
I've set in the Material master for my Material 4 days by the scheduling margin.
When I execute MD02. The system doesn't consider the 4 days by (start and finish date) from the plan order.
It only consider the Goods receipt processing time.
Is the Goods receipt processing time relevant only for the plan order and the scheduling margin time for the production order?
Thanks.

Dear ,
Did you miaintain the Scheuling Margin Key in OPPR , Material Master -MRP2 and routing ??
Generally , to define the order float we need the scheduling margin key in OPPQ .The scheduling margin key is copied from the material master -MRP2 view . The float before production or float after production and the release period are defined in the scheduling margin key
For Customizing you need to go in OPPR or in Shop Floor Control, by choosing Operations --> Scheduling --> Define Scheduling Margin Key . This key gets transferred when the production order is created from planned order or direct production order These values can be changed in the production ordr only .
While running MRP , it will not cosider the SMK for scheuling purpose because MRP does not carry our detail scehduling based on Work Centre available capacity where as it takes the routing operation time and perfomr the scheuling to gerenrate the Planned Order Dates .
refer this expert comments : Scheduling Dates for Planned Order and Production orders

How To Automatically Create Planned Orders When Sales Order Is Saved

I have a MTO sceanrio where we need to create planned orders when sales orders are saved without running MRP.
I have the Planning Strategy Group set to 81 in the material master, but it didnt create the planned orders.
Could you tell me other settings I should review to make the planned orders create automatically?

Tony,
At the "Requir. Classes" (OVZG) customizing screen, field "Automatic start of make-to-order in background mode" affects the automatic planning. See fields help doc. below.
    If you select this indicator, the system automatically carries out
    single-item, multi-level planning for a sales order if a sales order
    item is either created or changed.
    This function can only be used for make-to-order production.
So check out the Req. Cl that yr Req. type (req. type is part of a strategy).

Incorrect Sales order line item assignment to the Planned order

Hi,
I am creating a sales order & then MRP run to get planned orders.
The sales order has one assembly line item, which is a configurable material. Inside the configuration of the assembly, I maintain some components. After saving it explodes and the same components reflect below line items of the assebly in sales order.
Now if I run MRP there is a requirement for the component and so the planned order is created for the component. But If I open the planned order & see inside its Assignment view, there is correct sales order number, but the line item its showing is that of Assembly and not of the component. Why ? Is there any wrong in configuration or any wrong in planning type ?
I checked correct Item category is used.
MRP Type - PD
Correct requirement type is used in procurement view.
I think what ever is comming is standard SAP functionality. But I am not sure.
The client is saying, thie is wrong and because of this the warehouse guy is picking the wrong material (As the line number is wrong).
Please suggest here.

Hi Sambit,
We assign the Ordet type(Production order/ Planned order/ Network) to the requirment class to let the system know that for the material which has this requirment class , system chould create a Planned/ Procustion order. When you assign this normally system should create it automatically based on the settings. Requirment class comes from the requirment type which comes from the Item category and MRP type(*Genarally). Also check if there is any startegy Group assigned to the material in the material master and also the MRP group. Check the strtegy group defualts in the transaction "OPPS"(rEQUIRMENT TYPE /class FOR CUstome requirments). The best thing you could do is make the screen shots of the assembly header and the component's requirment classes and tell the business that based on this sytem is creating the planned order.And also check the plant parameters and the MRP group parameters in "OPPQ" and "OPPR" respectively. Kindly please let me know if you need any more infromation on this.

HT2470 Why does this not explain how to change the sort order?

Why does this (i.e. support at Apple.com) not explain how to change the sort order? I can "arrange" by Date Modified for example but it won't let me switch to use most recent dates first. Also, what is Apple-speak for arrange versus sort anyway? It seems I used to be able to click on a column heading in finder and get a drop down arrow allowing me to change the sort sequence.

Arrange roughly translates to "group the items in the folder." Sort is how each group is ordered. If you have arrange set to none, you can sort by anything. However, there is no way in the Arrange/Sort menu to choose the direction. The only way to do that is in the List View, and you must have Arrangement set to None.
I've submitted an Enhancement Request to allow choosing sort direction from the Arrange/Sort menu, but I haven't ever gotten a response, which is good and bad. Good because they will often respond that they have considered it and don't plan on implementing. Bad in that they've haven't implemented it.

"CLOSED": HOW TO LOAD FIRM PLANNED ORDERS OF ANOTHER PLAN INTO ASCP PLAN?

Hi everybody,
How to load firm planned orders of plan 1 into plan 2?
Business Case:
Customer uses a separate planning for order intake. During order intake the requested due date is validated based on ASCP Gantt Chart. Bottlenecks are resolved. For make items firm discrete jobs are created, if adjusted suggested due dates are manually changed. For buy items firm planned orders are created for manually changed suggested due dates.
If the order is accepted the demand is transferred from the Order Intake MDS into the so called Operational MDS. The firm discrete job will be automatically visible in the operational ASCP Plan (after data collection/running ASCP Plan).
But how is it possible to include ONLY firm planned orders of another plan into your current plan?
PLAN1 asigned master demand schedules
- O_MDS1
- O_MDS2
PLAN2 assigned master demand schedules
- O_MDS1
- O_MDS2
- T_MDS
I want to transfer the firm planned orders from plan2 to plan1.
Thanks for all your inputs,
Catalina

Since you need to run a data collection to load the new discrete job, I suggest you to add a custom step in the data collection.
This custom step will
1) select all firmed planned order in plan 2
2) put the firm planned order into a new schedule through staging tables (MST_ST_SUPPLIES) .
3) collect the data
Then run plan1 with this schedule defined as demand schedule for your new plan.

What is the effect of the planned order after it is converted to production

Hello Gurus,
1.There was a planned order with wrong date 2041 instead of 2011
2. plannedorder is already converted to production order and is visble in assignment tab of the production order
3.when I am tryng to display the planned order it gives error planned order is not exists.
4. Production order is already delivered
Now will there be any effect on finanace or any other ,if the planned order was created with wrong date,
can we now change the date of planned order , but it says does not exist as it is already converted to prod order.
Please let me know the implications of wrong date and how we can correct the date from 2041 to 2011
Thanks in Advance
Himakar

Dear Himakar,
As explained by our forum member,once after the planned order is converted into production order,the entire planned order
details gets deleted from table PLAF and the planned order dates can be changed in the production order and there is no
business impact other than the planned/production/actual dates.
However the planned order no deatils can be checked in the production order.

Modifying Sales order in ECC does not modify the planned order in APO?

Hello,
I have the next situation, a MTO scenario, LPP material,:
- users create a sales order, quantity 2000M, 2 individual lenghts by 1000M. In automatically, being a MTO scenario, APO generates a planned order to fulfill the requirement with 2000 M qty, individual lenght 1000.
- users modify the sales order, the quantity 2000 M remains, but will change it in 1 individual lenght by 2000M. APO cancels the precendently created planned order and generates another one, with individual lenght 2000.This is OK.
-users modify the sales order, the quantity remains 2000 M, but again 2 individual lenghts by 1000 M. In this case, the planned order is not cancelled, as expected, but remains with individual lenght 2000, which is not ok.
Any idea how to fix this?

Alex

MRP batch job not creating planned orders

Hi Experts,
Can anyone help with suggestions of where/what to look at with this situation. My MRP background (batch) job is not creating planned orders for materials in certain MRP planning areas as expected, but will create planned orders in other MRP planning areas. Running MD01 or MD03 creates planned orders for materials in all MRP planning areas of the plant as expected.

Ben,
Any time you get a difference between interactive MRP and batch MRP, first look to the planning file.
Start out by finding some of the discrepant parts (no planned orders are being created) Review for the presence of a planning file entry in MD21. If an entry does not exist, create one in MD20. If an entry does exist in MD21, but there is nothing in the NETCH/ NETPL/reset ord/reexpl bom cols, then this means no relevant changes have taken place, and NETCH MRP will ignore the parts. You can optionally reset these flags in MD21.
If you discover that you have one material for which there is nothing in MD21 (no record at all), then you probably have others as well. Run MDAB in Background, which will mass create all the missing entries. Also a good idea to run MDRE in case something has been corrupted.
Here is [OSS note 205681|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/205681] which explains a bit about the planning file. Also, See [OSS 371016|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/371016] which describes a similar problem.

How to get the Purchase order Qty in the object dependency

Hi,
We are using variant pricing in the purchase order. I have condition type say u201CZVBPu201D for Pallet cost. I defined Pallet cost as 5 USD per each (pallet). I have to calculate Number of pallets = Purchase order Qty/ 5. The number of pallets should be rounded to nearest integer.
My question is how to get the Purchase order Qty in the object dependency?
Is there any reference table and field can be used to get Purchase order Qty just like we use MMCOM-VKOND for variant pricing.
Appreciate your help
Thanks,
Srini

Hi,
1. I do not have system now so I can not conclusively tell about table field .
2. Since I did it long back so I also do not exactly remember it, there are more than one place where PO qty appears for example Item overview and Item details - one of the PO qty when used in the characteristic do pull the PO qty which can be used for variant pricing (so request to please update the forum with the correct table and field once you find it - in the meantime if I get opportunity to get to system I will also try and find out ).
