MRP on storage location level

Dear all,
We are searching a solution to the following problem:
We have two storage locations A + B.
In theses two location we have the same product.
We want to plan theses storage location with MRP and do one purchases or production order.
If storage location A has a requirement of 10 and storage location B a requirement of 20, the MRP will sum-up theses requirement and create a purchase requisition or planned order of 30. This is OK.
Question:
When the material arrives or the production has completed, how do we know which storage location has to receive which quantity (A = 10 / B = 20)?
Is there a standard solution proposed by SAP for this problem?
Thank you.
Best regards,
Thomas

How to run MRP at storage location level?

i know to run the MRP at plant level. i want to know to run the MRP at storage location level. what are the setting have to do for that? please can help any one....

Hi,
I think your question is answered by Sarita Doddi.
If you have several storage location for your plant, you cannot plan for them separately unless you assign them to a separate MRP area.
If a storage location (alone) is assigned to an MRP area, it means you wan to plan for it separately. If several storage locations are assigned to an MRP area (or let's say to a plant), it means you want to plan using all of them - and you cannot choose only one and plan for it (you can exclude a SLoc from planning w/o assigning it to MRP area).
So, planning is not SLoc wise, it goes MRP area wise.

MRP at storage location level with external requirements

HI,
We have to have reorder point planning at storage location level. Also we need to consider external requirements.
When I am setting storage location MRP indicator as 2 and putting Reorder point and replenishment quantity, then after running MRP it only considers the replenishment quantity but it doesnot consideer any external requirements.
Help me out how to configure the requirement?

Help required !! For MRP at Storage location level

Hi ,
we need to have separate MRP fro two storage locations with direct procurement from Storage locations. Right now we have MRP run at Plant level for all the storage locations. we donot want the materials in these two storage locations to be planned at Plant level only with Separate storage locations. Plant level MRP will run for the other storage locations .
I have created separate MRP areas for the storage locations & activated MRP for MRP Areas client level. material masters for the two storage locations have been asigned the MRP areas & maintained the MRP area data in material master .
When we run the MD01, the Planned orders are getting created at both MRP areas plus at the Plant level.we donot want the planned orders creation at Plant MRP area level-only at the storage location level for those two storage locations MRP areas.
Can anybody guide me -how to achieve that ? Did we miss any configuration?
I tried to maintain scope of planning & getting error for parallel processing .
Do i need to maintain parallel procesing with servers ?
Pls need your input on this. Any help will be highly appreciated .
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Krish.

Hi Krish,
Go to following IMG path and check out your settings -
IMG>>>Production>>>MRP>>>Master Data>>>>MRP Areas>>>
(1) Activate MRP for MRP Areas -
Is that activated?
(2)Define MRP areas>>>> Do setting s as per Storage Location
Then run MRP.
MRP Areas
In this IMG activity you define whether MRP is to be carried out with MRP areas. In addition, you define the MRP areas for each plant in which you would like to carry out this type of materials requirements planning.
The MRP area represents an organizational unit which carries out materials requirements planning independently. The results of the planning run are displayed specifically for each MRP area. An MRP area can include one or several storage locations of a plant or stock with a subcontractor.
You can assign a material to various MRP areas.
Basically, there are three types of MRP areas:
Plant MRP Area
Initially, the plant MRP area includes the plant with all its storage locations and stock with subcontractors. When you have defined MRP areas for storage locations and for subcontractors and you have assigned the materials, the plant MRP area is reduced by exactly this number of subcontractors and storage locations, as they are now to be planned separately.
MRP Areas for Storage Locations
You can define an MRP area that consists of a particular storage location by creating an MRP area and assigning the storage location to it. Material requirements for this storage location are then planned separately from the rest of the plant. You can also group several storage locations into one MRP area by creating an MRP area and assigning the storage locations. These storage locations are then planned together.
MRP Areas for Subcontractors
You can also define an MRP area for each subcontractor. Using an MRP area, it is possible to plan the components to be provided in subcontracting, by defining an MRP area for each subcontractor and assigning the components to be provided. You can therefore plan the requirements to be provided for these components for one subcontractor separately from the usual requirements.
Up to now, MRP at plant level had been carried out. The various requirements were combined in the planning run and procurement elements were created for these pegged requirements with unknown sources.
The introduction of MRP areas enables you to carry out material requirements planning and know the source of the pegged requirements and to be able to distinguish between them. The source of the pegged requirements can be, for example, production on a particular assembly line or a subcontract order.
Material requirements planning for each MRP area allows you to have specific control over the staging and procurement of important in-house production parts and purchased parts for each shop floor and assembly area.
Hope this will give you more idea about the same.

Can PIR created at wbs element and MRP area of storage location level

Hi,
I tried to create an planned independent requirement at MRP area and WBS element level, but failed. The MRP area is not plant level, but storage location level.
*When trying to create account assignment category Q for it, then there is an error message saying:*
**only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level.**
Does it mean it is not possible to create planned independent requirement for this case?
Thanks!

Select the "Issue storage location" as '2' here:
spro -> production -> material requirement planning -> mrp groups -> overall maintenance of mrp groups -> overview -> mrp control parameters at material level -> (field) Issue storage location selection
& make sure:
1. In the BOM issue storage location is blank for the components
2. For the FG products , in mrp area prod.storage loc is maintained
3. Components are extended to the mrp area.
Pl. revert with the results

Hi,
     Go to IMG settings 'Materials Management + Consumption-Based Planning + Planning + Define Storage Location MRP per Plant' Enter your Plant, It will show list of storage location in that Plant, then select 2 in 'MRP Indicator' field for storage location for which u want to plan seperately.
Hope It will clear Your Problem

How to run MRP on different storage location level ?

Dear Experts,
Need your valuable guidance to solve the below requirement form the client-
1) My client want to enter a "safety stock level" for one spare part/ Material on the basis of individual storage locations.
           For sake of example: in SL01 he wants the safety stock for particular material set to 5
                              In FS18 he wants the safety stock set to 2
                              In FS15 he wants the safety stock set to 1
Kindly tell me whether it is possible? & guide me how to do it.
2) Also tell me how to run MRP on a storage location level?
           This is because after maintaining different safety stocks for one material in different storage locations, is it possible to appear each storage location with their differing safety stock levels?
I checked the MRP type maintained & its-1 (plant) & not as- 2 (storage location).
Kindly guide me for the above issue
Thanks in advance for your support.

Mehul

Hi Umashanker,
Thanks for your suggession . Accordingly I have resolved the issue.

Storage Location level ATP check with CRM

Hi:
I am on an implemenation where the integration is between CRM, EWM and GATP. So, consider the situation where the sales order check is done through CRM and a call to GATP is made.
Some background on supply
EWM would like to receive the goods into storage location ROD (Received On Dock) and then do a movement type to move it to storage location AFS (Available For Sale). The sales orders should consider only the supply from storage location AFS and not ROD.
First question is, is it possible to do a storage location level determination in CRM? I don't think so but wanted to confirm. The reason is because even a plant determination is not possible in CRM when you integrate with GATP (the plant is determined through Rules).
Now, suppose that we have determined the storage location called AFS (in gATP through enhancement) and will do an ATP only at that level in GATP. Suppose that the first plant that will be checked is Plant A and then based on the location determination procedure, the next plant that will be checked is Plant B. When the system checks supply at Plant B, then the question is this: will it still check only at storage location AFS in Plant B or will it check at the plant level? The requirement will be to check at the same storage location level (which means that whatever process we used to determine the storage location at Plant A has to be followed for Plant B also).
One option that can be considered is to check at the Storage Location MRP Area level (there seems to be better support for RBA and Storage Location MRP Area than just storage location). See SAP Note 412314. But this is also complicated.
Another option is to not check at the storage location level but represent the various stocks with stock types (stock type ROD and stock type AFS) and only the stock type AFS will be used in the list of ATP categories.
Please share any experience that you may have in this.
Thanks,

Hi Satish,
In my project also we had this requirement to determine the correct Storage location after plant has been determined by using rules.
What we did is as follows:
- We created a Z table which had entries for all plants and preferred storage locations for those plant (only one entry per plant) in your case it will be like:
Plant A - AFC
Plant B - AFC
Plant C - AFC
- We used a ATP user exit in APO to get the storage location of source plant ( which was determined in APO via rules) from the Z table.
I hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Anupam

Material deletion flag at storage location level is not working

I have a material that is created in some plants and also in some storage locations within each plant. If I mark the deletion flag at plant level I am not able to create a PO -> Me051 error message appears. Whereas if I mark the deletion flag at storage location level nothing appens. I am able to create a PO and also to create to goods receipt. Is there any customization that I should do in order to get the error message?
Thanks in advance.

storage location level deletion flag is not checked at order creation.
it is assumed that you can change the storage location when you do the receipt.
MRP run is at plant level, so the requirement is valid even the storage location view is flagged for deletion.

Material block for sale in plant-storage location level

Dear experts,
Please help me how to block a material to sale in plant-storage location level.
Thank you.
Regards,
Badruddoza

The standard sales block (MVKE-VMSTA) in material master is valid for sales organisation / distribution channel combination (VKORG, VTWEG) - this means you cannot do it for Plant / SLoc combination,
What does it mean to block it at plant / sloc level? Generally in SO you do not specify the storage location. Or you are speaking about MRP also? In this case you could use SLoc-MRP (with proper availability check in delivery) for your material but the problem is that a plant might be assigned to several sales area and this SLoc would be hidden for them also.
Could you please specify what would you like to achieve, what sales block means according to you?

MRP at Storage Location

Hi folks!!!
With the help of MRP (Consumption Based), I only want to create purchase requisition at storage location level. I have made all the settings in MRP4 and it is working. But the problem is that it is also creating PR for plant as well, which I don't need.
Please let me know the settings, so that PR will create only for storgae location level and not for plant.
Regards.

Hi Qamar,
You can use MRP Area concept to plan only for the Storage location. Please follow the below Steps:
1. Defining MRP Areas (SPRO > Production > Material Requirements Planning > Master Data
> MRP Areas > Define MRP Areas)
2. Assignment of MRP Areas to Materials (MRP1 View of Material Master MM01/02)
3. Planning Material Requirements with MRP Areas (MD01 -Use Scope of Ploanning - Configure Scope
of Planning in IMG or MD02 for the specific MRP Area)

Opening and closing Stock report at Storage location level- date wise

Dear all
Is there any standard report to view opening and closing stock at storage location level? ( we have MB5B which resets the entry screen if we enter SLOC details).
Thanks
Sam

Do I have the option of selecting Storage Location wise opening and closing stock on a particular date or period, that is what I have requested? Is it possible, evenafter selecting storageloc/batch stock and entering all the SLOCs in the selection creen, the report output does not contain any SLOC, and using ctrl+F8 or display variant does not have SLOC as a field also.
pls gudie

MC.9 drill down at storage location level

In mc.9 report stock against plant xxxx at storage location drilldown
I see
In total valuated stock is 0
But
at storage location 0040 I see 423.686 as valuated stock
and at storage location 5M06 I see minus 423.686 as valuated stock
Client need to have not stock at plant level.
In total I see 0
But client is bothering about valuate stock he is getting at storage location level.
Thanks,
Kiran

Hi Jurgen,
For plant xxxx there is nil stock in mc.9 report. only I see sloc to sloc transfer of qty. for example sloc 0001 has qty + 100 & sloc 0002 has qty -100.
Finance is asking to user that this + - qty should not show in mc.9 and asking him to get it removed.
What should I suggest to user and finance.
Thanks,
Kiran
