MRP Period Setting ?

Hi gurus,
i need some help to understand MRP behaviour.  i have a doubt how MRP planning Period will be decided.
when i run MRP it genarates requiremets for different period.
EX : if i maintain PIR for A material for a six months. and i Run MRP for the same system genarating planned orders only for three months, and two moths for some time.
my doubt is how system knows the planning period. where we have to maintain the setting.
thanks&Regards,
venkat.

Hello Venkat
You should make sure that all the requirements that must be considered by MRP are within the planning horizon.
Therefore, if you have 6 months of PIRs, you should use a longer planning horizong. You can use, for example, 300 days or even a longer period if necessary.
Please observe that the planning horizon can also be defined at MRP group level on transaction OPPR. Therefore, you may have a different planning horizon for some specific materials.

  • 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.

    I know what the error means, but where do I set it to be Mar etc? I know where to do it in the excel addin but for Fin Reports??
    Cheers
    CD

    Solved in the planning forum, but if anybody is interested the answer is
    In Workspace, go to File > Preferences > Financial Reporting.
    There is a point of view section.
    Preview on/off, on brings up the POV selector before running a report.
    Also in section you can setup your default members to be used in the POVs.

  • Maximum MRP period

    Hi Experts,
    Can anybody answer me what is the use of Maximum MRP period in MRP configuration?
    Best Regards
    Ramakanth

    Maximum MRP period is to plan material according to the regular interval  specified as MRP period even if there is no chnage happened relevent to  planning run.
    in other word, if you enter 30 days, system will plan the material every 30 days even if there is no change relavent to mrp ( like GR, issues) happens in system.
    hope this clarifies.

  • Grace period setting

    Can I set grace period to unlimit? When users have over quota, msgs are queued in the channel. After that lets Notices keyword to bounce messages when msg queue time expire.
    Thanks

    Now we set grace period for 5 days and Notices is 2 days. We found that some msgs are queued less than 2 days, because grace period expire. That I understand grace period will start to count after user touch the theshold like now we set at 90% and will reset counter after delete mail until below theshold.
    And messages bounce after grace period expire eventhough user is not over quota ( around 90% - 95%)
    I would like to set when over quota mail will queue for 2 days eventhough grace period expire.

  • MRP Area Setting

    Hi, expert
    I have the following scenario:
    I got a transit sloc 1510 where goods will be backflush to this location first, then use mvt 311 to transfer to 1530 (fg whse) and 1520 (fg whse), and we want to seperate the material planning for 1530 and 1520.
    So, we use MRP area to do this:
    I set up 2 storage location MRP area: 1530, 1520
    sloc 1530 assigned to MRP area 1530, rec loc 1530
    sloc 1520 assigned to MRP area 1520, rec loc 1520
    Item A MRP4 setting:
    Production Version: Issue storage location: 1910, rec sloc: 1510
    Already assigned MRP area 1530 to this item A
    I created a sales order for ITEM A, in sales order, I specific the sloc 1530. Then I run MD02 using MRP area 1530. When I view the result in MD04, the rec loc for plan order is 1530 instead of 1510 (seems like MRP 4 production version setting is ignored).
    I try to add sloc 1510 in MRP area 1530 in SPRO, and then run MD04, the planned order rec loc becomes 1510, and this is what I want. But the problem is when I assign 1510 to MRP area 1520, system prompt error that 1510 already assign to other MRP area, it seems that only 1 sloc can be assigned to 1 MRP area, but based on my scenario, both 1520 and 1530 sharing 1 transit loc 1510, and I want the planning to be diff for 1520 and 1530, how should I proceed? how to configure MRP area?

    I only want to have 1 transit sloc 1510, all the goods will backflush to this sloc first, then later distribute to diff sloc. If follow what you said, I need to create multiple dummy storage location for each MRP area, If I have 8 MRP area, means 8 dummy sloc need to be created, this is not very practical and very hard to maintain.
    Any better suggestion?

  • Backup Retention period setting in SQL Server 7

    Hi,
        Can anyone help me out, how to setup retention period for backup in SQL server 7?

    Hi winoa,
    According to your description, SQL Server 7 was out of support. I suggest you can try to install SQL Server 2005 or later version.
    You can configure the media retention server configuration option in higher SQL Server
     by using SQL Server Management Studio or Transact-SQL. For more information, see:
    Configure the media retention Server Configuration Option.
    You can also use the "BACKUP DATABASE WITH EXPIREDATE = " option. or the WITH RETAINDAYS option for backup operation.

  • Skpe number renewal period setting

    Trying to get an answer to
    "How do I change the setting for my Skype Number renewal from 3 months to Annual renewal?"
    is proving to be the usual "what should take 2 minutes" is proving to be MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!!!
    This in the 2013 where we supposed to have "arrived" technologically as far as Microsoft are concerned!

    the only way to accomplish what you wish is to cancel the quarterly subscription and purchase an annual one
    if you cancel the existing sub, it runs to expiry, but you won't lose the number because it is reserved for you for 90 days

  • Costing run for MRP-MPN set

    Hai,
      I am using MPN concept in my process.
      Here I am getting one problem while going for Costing Run.
      1.  In BOM component for FERT is maintained as leading part. on which there is no Inventory maintained or no value for this material in Material Master so in costing run it is taking that value.
      2. How costing run consider the MPN materials for Costing.
    Thank & regards
    KM

    Hi,
    Normally while creating the material master, we will maintain some approximate value in the accounting view. Then later while running the cost estimation, it will explode the BOM, routing it will calculate the BOM item component costs and the activity costs and the same it will update in the costing 2 view. This is the concept of standard cost estimation.
    MPN material is the manufacturer part no. While procuring the component or while supplying the components to the supplier we need to supply the material as per their material no we need to supply them or procure them. But for our easy handling or to follow our own system we will me maintain the different material no. This 2 things we need to link MPN profile and the MPN material no. When u order your own material, the system in turn will create a purchase order with the vendor material no. This is the MPN material logic.
    regards,

  • Mid quarter depreciation without setting the mid period

    Hello All,
    Thank you for taking time to read my question.
    When AA went live, half monthly data for the company code was not maintained (while it should have been maintained 15 as the mid period). Since the half period is not configured, I am not able to set the mid month setting in OAVH. Now the taxes are calculated with an additional 15 days when specifying mid quarter when using period method control 005. The company code went live last year October and SAP will not allow updating the mid period from blank to 15.
    Have anyone dealt with such a situation? I planned on defining a new period control key and assign it to a custom period method control. But still not able to get the depreciation value correct to the mid quarter.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    AM

    What do you mean without mid period setting? Is this OAVH? Anyway, you can try this.
    Use of Half Months in the Company Code
    In this step, you determine the company codes in which you want to use half periods. In this way, you can calculate depreciation in these company codes on the basis of half months or half periods.  Using this method, you can work with 24 periods in Asset Accounting, although the fiscal year version in Financial Accounting has only 12 normal periods (without using a different fiscal year version for Asset Accounting).
    You should be aware, however, that the specifications for periods in the transactions in Asset Accounting (such as, useful life) have to be based on whole periods (12).
    Example
    Half periods are, for example, necessary to represent the "mid quarter/month rule". This is a version widely used in the U.S.A. With this rule, it is important for the determination of depreciation whether an acquisition takes place in the first or the second half of a period.
    Caution
    When you specify the use of half periods in the definition of an asset company code, half periods are automatically specified in all other company codes that use this fiscal year version.
    You cannot use half periods with non-calendar fiscal months.
    You cannot take back the use of half periods once the specification has been made.  It is noted internally by the system in the asset master records.
    Requirements
    The number of the posting periods in the fiscal year version used must correspond to the number of calendar months (12).
    Activities
    1. Specify the use of half periods by entering the date (for example, the 15th) for the middle of the period for the company codes.
    2. If you have defined period controls yourself
    (see Period Control),
    you must provide for the use of half periods in their assignment rules. For monthly and quarterly periods, corresponding period controls have already been created as standard in the system.
    Thanks!

  • SNP Planning book - Period Information Setting Issue

    Dear All,
    In SNP Planning book we have issue related to "Period Information" for
    the buckets. The period labelling is not working properly.
    Actually when we go to the SNP planning book and change the Period
    Information Settings(refer attachment). Once Period Setting is changed,
    it gets changed to all the users(globally). So it is behaving as if it is not
    user specific settings.
    Scenario is - Suppose I changed the Period information in SNP Planning
    book to appear in particular format, and when other users goto SNP
    Planning book their Period Information Setting gets automatically
    set to the same format which was I changed to, and vice-versa.
    FYI - We do not have - Use-Exit implemented for Period Setting.
    Appreciate any input in this regard.
    Thank you
    Satish Waghmare

    Hi Pawan
    Thanks for the reply.
    Here is what SAP has to say, this is as per reply to my OSS message.
    Question- The period information settings cannot be
    made user-specific; there is no customization possible. right?
    SAP Says-------> Regarding the period information settings, there is really no
    customization to achieve the result, unfortunately.
    Question- When you goto Design of the Planning Book, inside the Dataview Tab,
    Period Labelling field shows value as "A", However F4 drop-down list do
    not contain u201CAu201D value for the selection. Only possible values in F4 drop-
    down list are Blank, U, Z, B and E. Could you please clarify this?
    SAP Says -
    > Regarding the period labeling values, the 'A' value is blank in the
    selection because you can also leave it blank for the system to use the
    'standard labeling' option.
    Sharing it for for everyone's benefit.
    Thank you
    Satish.

  • MRP - PRs being generated along with Schedule lines

    Hi
    Problem statement - PRs also getting generated alongwith schedule lines in MRP.
    We have 'PD' MRP type set up for externally procured material with 'F'. I had set up to generate schedule line using the sourcelist. and during the planning run MD03, I am selecting the following values
    Create PR - '2' Purchase requisitions in the open period (any value in the three generates a PR/Planned order in the open period)
    Delivery Schedules - 3 Schedule lines.
    The client requires only generation of schedule lines.  How can I get this done.
    regards
    Nagaraj

    Dear Nagaraj,
    For MRP to create the schedule lines automatically, please change to the following settings.
    1. Create Scheduling agreement for the vendor,Agreement type  LP.
    2. In ME03, Source List: Maintain MRP = 2 Record relevant to MRP. Sched. lines generated automatically.
    3. Run MRP
    Hope this helps you.
    Regards,
    Ashish

  • MRP Problem

    Hi Expert,
    I got problem in my MD01, in my plant parameter is set up like this CREAT PURCHASE REQ. 2 and SCHEDULE LINES 2, and my material is a RAW, with MRP type set up as PD, and PROCUREMENT is F, why does when i check in mD04 there are planned order for my RAW material since raw is externally procurred it must be PURCHASE REQ should appear? please explain this to me, what should i do?
    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi,
    Based on the Opening period defined at Schedule margin Key of  Material , MRP will creates PR & Planned order.
    During the backward scheduling system calcualtes the Opening date by subtracting openning period   ( the Number  days defined at SMK as openning period ) from  release date.
    If Requirements date  is earlier than the Opening period system will create planned order .
    some time is there to convert it to PR.
    If requirement date later than the openning period it will cretae PR directly.
    Set  create pur req = 1 at md01 sytem will create PR always.
    Regards

  • Unfirmed purchase reqs not getting cancelled in the background MRP run

    Good morning,
    The system has created Purchase requisitions for 2010 due to the setting in the MRP run. we want to change it to planned orders outside the Vendor lead time and when i run a REGEN MRP with setting 2 (Purchase requisitions in opening period) its not happening. When i run indivudual MRP with MD03 with the same setting its alright, purchase requisitions are deleted and its converted into Planned orders. Can anyone please throw some light on to make backgrouond MRP run delete the Purchase requisition and create planned orders.

    Jags,
    You must delete the offensive PRs first.  Regardless of the MRP settings, MRP will still decide that the PRs are valid and will leave them alone.  It will not 'change' them into planned orders.
    Run Regenerative MRP with your new settings (Create purchase reqs as '2') but also run your MRP in planning mode '3', delete and recreate planning data.  It will delete all existing unfixed purchase requisitions, and then run MRP.
