MRP : Planning levels , time lines , qunatities

Hi all ,
can somebody answer me this
What level can we plan the material using MRP ?
can material planned at storage location level ?
What are the time ( lines ) say Purch processing time , planned delivery time , GR processing time are considered during MRP run. what stock types are considered ?
what are those qunatities taken into consideration ?
thanks all

What level can we plan the material using MRP ?
can material planned at storage location level ?
1. Generally, you can run MRP at plant level and this MRP run will consider all of oyur SLocs.
2. If you use MRP areas, there will be one MRP area for your plant, and there may be MRP are for SLocs as well for your subcontractor. In this case you can run MRP at MRP area level.

3. You can use SLoc MRP concept. In this case you can exclude SLoc from planning (via setting in MRP4 view of material master > SLoc exlusion will be valid only for materials you set the proper indicator). You can also carry out settings for SLoc to be planned separately (MRP won't consider those SLoc during planning, but it will plan for them separately > CBP). Please notice that SLoc MRP is not the same as MRP aea.

1. What kind of stock types are considered you can set for MRP type.
SPRO > Production > MRP > Master Data > Check MRP types
2. Purchasing processing time, PDT, GR processing time

MRP - Planned Delivery Time as 'Number of workdays' - How ?

Hi All,
We want to use 'Planned Delivery Time'(PDT) as 'Number of workdays' rather than 'Number of calendar days' while running MRP (Single item, multi level) from MD02 AND eventually that would be reflected in 'Availability date' in MD04. Can we achieve this by config or we need to search a proper user exit / BADI / enhancement spot for this ? Any suggestion on this is most welcome.
Note - Factory Calendar ID has been maintained properly with Mon - Fri as working days.
Thanks,
Ashok

Hi Csaba,
Thanks for your input. The link you have provided does give information on how to assign the factory calender at plant level. However it doesn't answer to my question of how to use 'Planned Delivery Time' as 'Number of workdays' rather than 'Number of Calender days' .
My concern is 'Is it possible achieving this ? If YES, How ? By using config OR by any enhancement spots / User exits ?'
Any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks,
Ashok

Planning Level/Package names not displaying correctly in BPS0 (BI7)

We have just upgraded our BW system from 3.5 to BI7. We are running SEM 3.5.
We now seem to have a display issue with the titles of some planning levels and packages within BPS0.
On some planning level/package lines the display in the left hand pane of BPS0 is truncated with only a partial description, even though the full description is displayed in the right hand pane. This is not consistent, as other levels and packages are displayed correctly. It is not truncating at the same place in all instances.
I have tried to delete the description and re-input it again, but the problem persists.
Similar display issues occur in UPSPL in a seemingly random fashion.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Barry

Hi
Have just found out what is happening and the solution....but no nearer to knowing why.
The display problem occurs in descriptions of planning levels and packages in BPS0 and in UPSPL & UPSPM. Also when viewing global planning sequences.
The cause is the use of "&" in a description text. When this character is removed and replaced with another, eg "+", then the descriptions display correctly.
I wonder if this is to do with "&" being a special character, which I believe XML doesn't handle too well?
Anyway, I can now change the descriptive text and the problem goes away.

MRP - Auto creation of del schedule lines based on planned delivery time

Hi,
We have activated MRP (type PD) where Purchase requiesition is auto created by system for requirement quantity. We require to optimize delivery schedule in such a way that entire PR quantity is broken into various delivery schedule based on planned delivery time and requirement. Scenario can be further explained with following example.
Material Requirement for a month is say 1,25,000 units
Closing Stock say 25,000 units
PR Generated by system for 1,00,000 units. The entire quantity is schdulled with only one delivery schedule line as per planned delivery time.
The requirement is to generate multiple delivery schedule lines automatically in Purchase requisition based on planned delivery time so that Purchase orders can be placed with system generated delivery schedule lines.
How can it be achieved ?
Regards,
Nirav Kinkhabwala

Nirav,
This subject has been discussed repeatedly in this and other forums. I must assume that you overlooked the rules of engagement, which state that you should first search the forums and other public sites, before posting questions here.
Standard SAP MRP cannot be made to generate multiple items in a Purchase requisition. The functionality you seek is usually achieved when converting purchase reqs to Purchase orders, where many single purchase reqs can be adopted into a single Purchase order.
You also might want to investigate use of Vendor Scheduling agreements.

Planned delivery time in Scheduling agreement and MRP

Hello,
Do you know is it possible to determine system so that MRP run will consider the planned delivery time from the scheduling agreement line instead of material master? Now the system read planned delivery time from material master when creating schedule lines automatically by MRP-run.
Regards, jaana

This can be customized in
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide
-> Production
--> Material Requirements Planning
---> Planning
> Procurement Proposals
> Define External Procurement
Here you can select the indicator "Scheduling according to purchasing info record or agreement" either at plant or MRP group level.

Planned Delivery time not considered after MRP run for scheduling

Dear All,
After running MRP, the planned delivery time maintained in Purchase info record is not taken into consideration for calculating start date of the schedule line of externally procured material generated by the system.
Planned delivery time is 3 days & Requirement of parent material falls on 15/02/2010. With this, system should calculate the start date for schedule line as on 12/02/2010 considering 3 days Planned Delivery time.
Any idea as to what might have gone wrong?
thx for your help in advance.
Rgds,
Ranjeet

Hi,
Determination of PLD from the Purchase info record is maintained in transaction code:OMDT. Planned Delivery time is also maintained in Scheduling agreement. However, it is not calculating delivery date as well as release date.

Planned Delivery Time of Schedule Line

Dear Gurus,
I have done the setting in SPRO >MM>PURCHASING>PP>PROCESSING TIME from 1 day to 0 day bt still it is picking up one day for schedule lines.There is 0 days planned delivery time in VendorMaster,Material Master,Vendor info record.
I hv run the MRP on 06/01/2011 and system is generating schedule lines for 07/01/2011.I want it for 06/01/2011 only.
With Regards.

I hv run the MRP on 06/01/2011 and system is generating schedule lines for 07/01/2011.I want it for 06/01/2011 only.
During MRP, System will do the backward scheduling... from FG reqmt to Raw material,
Compare the order start date of header material in plan order or in prdn order with the reqmt date for the schedule line material - Is any difference in days?

Consider planned delivery time field in MRP Areas

Hi,
I would like to know if the "Consider Planned Delivery Time" field in the MRP areas is taken into the scheduling of materials during MRP run? From the help documentation, it seems to be yes. Otherwise the system will take the Planned Delivery Time from the Plant level. May I ask how we can tick this field for all materials? We are currently in the process of activating the MRP areas in our system. Before, we didn't use the MRP areas but we think the need for it has arrived. Is there a mass maintenance tool to do this? Or do I have to use LSMW? Thanks!
Regards,
Chester

Hello Chester
If you flag the field "consider planned delivery time" the planned delivery time defined on the MRP area will be considered by MRP. You should tick it for all the materials if the value from the MRP area should be considered.
Also, the report RMMDDIBE can be used for mass processing of MRP areas.

Loading levels under elements in time line

I have a master container file that holds elements like a
navigation, border, logo and other items that need to be visible at
all times. I put these elements on the stage in various layers.
Upon clicking on buttons within the navigation, external .swf
files are then loaded into this container file. The loaded .swfs go
into an empty movie clip called "target_mc", created using
ActionScript:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("target_mc");
here's the AS for one of the buttons:
on (release) {
loadMovie("MM/01_home_SR_3404.swf", "target_mc");
Everything works fine, however the loaded .swfs are coming in
on top of the elements in my timeline. Is there a way to have then
come in under these elements? I know using AS to load these
elements in the same way as the .swfs will solve the problem, but I
like being able to see them in the time line so that it's easier to
make adjustments. I also know that creating an empty movie clip
that sits on the time line in a lower layer to hold the .swfs will
solve the problem, however I need to load them into levels so I can
eventually do things like swap depth and load to the next highest
level.
any advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!!

I'm still using Cs6.... I found that if you hold shift+click with the cut tool it cuts it.. I'll try link as shifting is a pain...
Maybe there is a way to set teh shift+click as the default action for the cut tool?

Simoultaneous planned delivery time (MRP)

Dear Experts,
I would like to set my MRP for material purchases in order that I can have 2 different lead times, depending on the route (air/sea)
For instance, if MRP can supply enough material with 1kg or less, then it should take a shorter lead time for it would be air freight than if the minimum necessary was more than 1 kg. (Actual freight lead times= air 60 days, sea 90 days)
Best regards
Marco Aramini

Hello Marco
It is possible to have different lead times for different vendors on MRP.
On the customizing transaction OPPQ, choose the option "external procurement" and make sure that the flag "scheduling: info rec agreement" is set.
With this setting, the planned delivery time is read from the info record or from the scheduling agreement.
After that, you should create a quota arrangement for both vendors (see note 1508647 for details).
On the quota arrangement, you can use the minimum and maximum size to define that the source will only be selected if the lot size is higher than 1KG or smaller than 1 kg.
If have a more complex logic to select the vendor, you can use BAdI MD_MODIFY_SOURCE.

MRP Planned order finish Date calculation (Planned delivery + GR Proc.time)

Dear Gurus,
Currently in our system, when MRP runs, Planned orders are created and the order finish date is calculate based on Purchasing processing time OMEW + Planned Delivery time from Material Master + GR processing time from material Master.
My business requirement is that, system has to take only Planned Delivery time + GR Processing time and exculde Purchasing PRocessing time.
I cant make it Purchasing Processing time as ZERO - because this is used for other Purchase orders and KPI will be affected for procurement department
Now we are going to Automate the Purchase orders for Materials - if outline agreement exist.
How to make system settings for a MRP run, the Planned order finish date - should consider only Planned delivery time from Material master + GR Processing Time ( it should exculed Purchasing PRocessing time). Is it posssible? if not by any user exit, ABAP coding should be done?
gurus please advice!
BADI : MD_PLDORD_CHANGE - is this can be used?
Please advice
Regards

Sales Plan At MRP area level

Dear All,
is it possible to maintain sales plan on MRP level? if yes How.
or if I will enter sales plan on Plant level can i tranfer to demand management on MRP area level if yes how?
Regards,
Ahmed sobhi

Hi,
Please elaborate your query.
You must have gone to SE37 transaction to check this function module and you must have checked the import parameters on the the import tab.
When we call this fiunction module in Z program, we need to ensure that data is supplied so that import parameters are taken and data is updated in MDMA table.

Cash Management Report FF7B - drill-down from planning levels to AP/AR OIs

Hi
I'm configuring cash management and have created all planning levels and groups needed.
All master data, ie GL accounts, vendors and customers, have the correct planning level or group.
I've created all the groupings etc that I need.
I'm running the reports FF7A and FF7B. I have two questions and problems.
1. When running the Liquidity Forecsat for customers and vendors I drill-down to the standard PL or SL planning levels for AP and AR postings respectively. Then I drill into the planning groups correctly (E1-E9 and R1-R8). But when I try to drill into the cash management detail records (or is it the AP/AR line items?) I get "Memo Records: List - List Contains No Data". This happens every time. Should I now see the AP or AP line items? Or should I see some cash management memo records? I have deleted all the cash management data several times and recreated but I still get this problem (using reports RFFDDL00 and RFFDKU00)
When I do the same for purchase orders, purchase requisitions or sales orders I see a Memo Records List which agrees with the previous planning level total and I can then drill into the actiual POs, PRs or SOs from this list without an issue.
2. When running the Cash Position and I do the drill-down to the GL Line Items, I get an enormous list which does not just show the total of items at the previous planning level. Why is this please? Example: a bank account with a balance of £2,000 (shown on the panning level) but with 000's of line items totalling say £5m. Again I have deleted the CM data and recreated but without any improvement to the problem.
Any help anyone can give me with these issues will be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
Wayne

Hi
I have the same trouble with Tcode FF7B. There´s a message "Memo Records: List - List Contains No Data"; bit in the TcodeFF7A, it runs OK. The message appears just witn Tcode FF7A.
Also, There´s all TR data in tables FDSB for GL accounts, FDSR and FDFIEP for customers/vendors.
Can you help me?? can you solved this issue?
Tanks for your Help

System is not considering Planned Delivery time

Dear Gurus,
As iam planning for the month of January and running the MRP,schedulelines are getting generated but system is not condering Planned Delivery time maintained in the material master ie. 7days.Following is the example:
I have a FERT-X with a component A-1PC in its BOM and its planned delvery time from vendor is 7 Days.If iam running the MRP on 13/12/2010 for FERT-X 100 PCS for January1,2011 then the schedule lines are getting generated for for component A is on 01/01/2011.But PDT is maintianed in material master is 7 days and same has been maintianed in vendor inforecord.But system is not considering it.
Kindly help to resolve the issue.
With Regards.

I have one ROH which has two different vendors.
Two scheduling Agreemnt with target qty 100000 kg each.
Two different Vendor info record with Min. order qty maintained.V1-1000Kg,V2-6000Kg.
One source list with two vendors and with respective scheduling agreement.
Quota arrangement is there in which SOB is maintiained 50:50.
I hv the requirement of 3084 kg of ROH.
I run the MRP and two diiferent schedule lines are getting generated with 50:50 qty as mentioned in Quota arrangement.
Not considering the minimum order qty maintiained in vendor info record.
The above process is correct
Only One doubt In Quota Arrangement?
IS two schedule line is created after MRP run?
Generally System will select a vendor Whose Quota value is less
quota rating = quota base quantity + quota-allocated quantity/ quota

Is planned delivery time is considered in scheduling agreement ????

Hi experts
problem is that the schedule lines (for external procurement) generated from MRP are not taking the "" Planned delivery time into consideration"". System is only taking the G.R processing time.
I have mentioned the Planned delivery time in .
1) Scheduling agreement for 1 day.
2) In material master for one day.
3) In info record 1 day.
e.g Suppose req date is 13.07.2008. MRP run date 4.07.2008.
a) Planned delivery time = 1 day . B) G .R processing time = 3 days.
Now when i run the MRP on 4.07.2008.
Schedule line is generated on - 10.07.2008
Please Guide . How i can take care of that time which is requiered at vendor ends.
Regards
Rahul Bhardwaj

Go to OPPQ for that plant
Click on "External Procurement " tab and check if you have maintained any planned delivery time?
Tick indicator " Scheduling info record/agreement " (This will take Planned del time specified in scheduling info rec or agreement)
