MRP running on an STPO

Hi,
Is there any option of running MRP on an ( stpo)stock transfer purchase order.
I am also in knowing can i run mrp for a sales order for one sub assembly only but not on the material as a whole in MD02 or MD03.
Please suggest if you have any idea.
regards
madan

Hi
MRP at STPO level: When STPO is created, automatically, thats becomes the requirement in the supplying plant. if that material has planning strategy as 40, I think, it creates the receipt element during MRP run.l check.
MRP at SO level for an assembly:
MRP at SO level is possible through MD50. But, you are saying at an assembly level. I feel, you have 2 options
(1) use ND as MRP type for materials other than particular assembly.
(2) use complicated strategy ( I am not sure.. you need to check through 60-80 number strategies, which may suite to requirement).. sorry for vague answer. I am trying to some thought for your requirement which need to be furthre investigated.
Thanks

Plannning Material and Plant for MRP Run

Hi,
If I have a material (01) extended on 2 plants, on one plant (A) we have production and planning/MRP + stock and on the other one (B), just stocking and transfer. B's requirements are to be entered and planned at A. I also want stock at B to be considered with stock at A when MRP runs at A. In the material master, I have some settings. I want to know if these would be any good:
Material 01 on Plant A:
MRP PD
Strategy 40
Lot size EX
Coverage profile applied
Material 01 on Plant B:
MRP ND/PD tried both
Strategy 40
Lot size EX
Coverage profile applied (same)
Planning material: Material 01 itself
Planning plant: Plant A
I particularly want to know about points 5 and 6. Will they make any difference if I run MRP on scope of planning(all plants) or just plant A? Will stock at B be considered? What difference does that setting make in my case? Please help!
Thanks!

No sales on Plant A. Only transfers and STO's. Stock is STO'd to Plant B (and other Plants, as well)
Plant B sells the stock.
Yes, I want to load the forecast in Plant A (COPA to SOP to DM to MRP). What do I do in this case?
I tried another case, as well. In that I put a special procurement on the material in Plant B view and marked it as external procurement. (the planning material and plant were there, didn't remove)
Then I entered the forecast in both plants separately (PIRs for both Plants) The requirements from Plant B made STPO Planned orders in Plant B and STCK Planned orders in Plant A. I am using coverage profiles (period is month, standard length 25 days, target 10 days for 1st period for 2 months, target 10 days for 2nd period for 1 month, target 10 days for the rest of the horizon) Not using any consumption modes.
The results I am getting don't make sense to me. I have attached screen shots for both plants MD04 and the MRP + work scheduling views

How to create STPR(Stock Trasnsfer Pruchase Req) in MRP Run

Hello PP Guru ,
I am running MRP in various branch-plant .I maintained Special Procurement Key 40 for all the material in branch-plant .Here we have one supply plant .We run MRP at Supply plant once all our other branches(plant) completes their MRP run .My requirement is
1.How to create STPR/STPO while running MRP at branches ? I did not find any option in MD01 to create STPR/STPO while executing MRP at plant level.Is there any configuration seting required?
2.How to create PR/PO in Supplying plant (Central plant) so that it will consider all the branches STPR/STPO and show List of PR in MD04 ?
Thanks and regards

Hi Jia,
Yes, there is some special setup for Stock Transport orders. There are some business decisions you must make first. Pls refer to [Stock transport orders|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/EN/4d/2b90dc43ad11d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm] for basic functionality in helping you to make your decisions.
For configuration settings, refer to
[Purchasing IMG|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/32/72369adc56d11195100060b03c6b76/frameset.htm] then Purchase Order>Set up Stock Transport order.
and
[Purchasing IMG|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/32/72369adc56d11195100060b03c6b76/frameset.htm] then Purchase Requisition>Set up Stock transport Requisition.
These steps can be reached in IMG>MM>Purchasing>Purchase order>Set up Stock transport order, and
IMG>MM>Purchasing>Purchase Req>set up Stock transport requisition.
For question 2, there is no special setup. Once your STOs/STRs are properly set up, you will see new requirements in your central plant, which represent the un-fulfilled requirements from the branch plants. Assuming that you already have set up MRP in the central plant, MRP will create new proposals (pureqs or plndords) just as if all of these new requirements were new sales orders.

Order of delivery schedule line counter at schedule agreements from MRP run

Currently we are using schedule agreements for our long term external suppliers, but we are facing a problem with the order of new delivery schedule lines created during MRP run.
Because of master data settings like, lot size, rounding value, plan delivery time and planning time fence to set as firm new requirements, multiple schedule lines are created with no order for schedule line counter.
Does anyone is aware of a BADI, user exit or customizing control to have this schedule line counter in order?
Thank you

Effect of manually created proposal on MRP Run

if there is any proposal which might have been created by the user manually & not via MRP run, does it have effect on the results of MRP.
will the system ignores the requirement as it has been covered already via manually created proposal.

Dear Geetika,
if there is any proposal which might have been created by the user manually & not via MRP run,
does it have effect on the results of MRP.
Yes definitely it have effect on MRP
MRP checks All Firmed Receipts & creates procurement proposals
will the system ignores the requirement as it has been covered already via manually created proposal.
Say for example demand is there for material as 50 PCS
Now manually user created Production order for that 50 pcs
Now if run MRP than system will not create any plan order as already Production order consists for 50 pcs
Again we have add demand for the same as for another 50 pcs
so now total demand became for that material is 100pcs
Now Run MRP system will create plan order for 50 pcs
As we have already 50 pcs of production order which is created manually
Hope the above clarifies

Purchase order status in MRP run

Hi Gurus,
I have a doubt in MRP run.
While doing the MRP run, can there be any open PO s or is it mandatory to close them.
Can you also please suggest me on how to run the MRP.

Hi,
MRP Run
Purpose
The Material Requirements Planning (MRP) function enables you to plan material requirements for complex manufacturing processes. You use the MRP Wizard to create and run MRP scenarios. The MRP Wizard generates recommendations for the production and purchasing orders required to produce the final product on time and in the required quantity. You then use these recommendations to create production and purchase orders in the Order Recommendation Report.
The order recommendation cannot be issued for requirements that happened in the past (before the present day). Since the purchasing or production process cannot be completed in time, the MRP does not mix the real past data with new recommendations for the same period.
Prerequisites
●     You have defined the
○     Planning system
○     Procurement method
○     Order mutliple
○     Minimum order
○     Lead time
See also: Item Master Data, Planning Data Tab.
●     You have set the time interval between orders. See also: Define Inventory Cycles.
●     You have defined the appropriate items as non-production bills of materials (if required). See also: Item Master Data, General Tab.
●     You have defined default warehouses. See also: Define Warehouses.
●     You have defined forecasts. See also: Forecasts.
●     You have selected the Consume Forecast option to make the system exclude existing sales orders from the forecast. If this is not selected, the forecast considers existing sales orders as an additional requirement. See also: Sales Order.
●     You have set the planning definitions. If you chose Consume Forecast, you have defined the consumption method, days forward and days backward. See also: General Settings, Inventory Tab.
Process Flow
       1.      Start the MRP Wizard.
       2.      Create a new MRP scenario or select an existing one. (See also: MRP Wizard: Select New or Existing Scenario.)
       3.      Define the parameters for your scenario, such as the planning horizon and item details.
You also choose your display preferences. (See also: MRP Wizard: Scenario Details.)
       4.      Define the data sources for requirements that you want to include in your MRP scenario.
For example, you define whether you want to consider the existing stock or the minimum stock level. You can also include a predefined forecast. (See also: MRP Wizard: Data Source.)
       5.      Save the scenario or run it.
After you run the scenario, the system displays the MRP Results.
If there are red figures in the result table, solve the problem and re-run the MRP.
       6.      Analyze the MRP results. You can display the final stock quantity before the MRP run or after it.
       7.      Save the recommendations and exit the MRP Wizard.
Result
After completing the MRP Wizard, you still need to create the purchase and production orders in accordance with the MRP recommendations. See also: Order Recommendation Report.
Hope this will help.

Is there a report to track the exception messages after a MRP run ?

We have a scenario at our client site where MRP run is not optimized to the fullest.
The planners are not trained on how to interpret those exception messages.
They are not trained on how to reschedule / expedite planned orders resulting from an MRP run.
Is there a report out in SAP that keeps track of
1) History of number of exception messages by type ( Expedite/Reschedule/Cancel)
2) History of number of exception messages that were acted on or ignored by the planner.
This is to create metrics on the usage of MRP exception reports by planners.
Appreciate your inputs..

Hi
The exception messages are dynamic and time dependant. You cannot have history of exception message.. If your user is feeling difficult to use standard MRP reports. Create a new report using a function module MD_STOCK_REQUIREMENTS_LIST_API
It gives all MRP data including exception messages.

When MRP run through background process in MDBT open PR and PO not comming?

Hi,
When MRP run through backgroung process in MDBT open PR and PO not coming in MDBT result.
Pls advise accordingaly.
Regards
rk

Ram,
Either I am totally misunderstanding your statements, or your business people are misinformed.
The output of MD01 (MRP total run in foreground) and the output of MDBT (MRP total Run in Background) ARE IDENTICAL, provided you have selected the same parameters.
Neither output contains a discrete listing of open Purchase orders and Purchase requisitions.
Standard output of both MD01 and MDBT are:
1. List of materials processed, with exception messages
2. Statistics
In addition, both of these programs also write MRP records to the MRP databases, provided that the "Display Material List" parameter is set. In this case, both of these programs will produce data that can be further reviewed and managed in MD05 and MD06. MD06 is the tool that most planners use to process the MRP database info.
If you wish to see a listing of the entire MRP results (either MD01 or MDBT), then execute transaction MDLD. This will produce either a spoolfile or a printed document.
For the PO or PR listings, review my earlier suggestions.

Open Purchase Orders not considered as requirement for MRP Run

Hi ,
We are facing a issue of Open Purchase orders not appeared in Stock requirements list and also it is not considered as requirement for MRP Run against reservation.
As aresult for a reservation demand of 10 units we are ending with Open POs 10 units and a additional planned order 10 units.
Material Type : ERSA
MRP Type : PD (or VB)
Lot size : EX ( HB if MRP Type is VB)
Could you please throw some light to correct our settings to MRP to consider Open POs?
Saravanan

Can you check to see if there is a re-order point set up for this materia? That could be causing the problem too.

Sale Order MRP Run for All Order Line Items

Greetings...
I have One Sales Order , in which i have ten different Line Items .
Now I have to Run the MRP on basis of Created sales Order so that all Line items wi get consider insingle MRP Run on sales order base MRP Run.
How to take MRP Run of One Sale Order for all Line Items.???
In MD50 , we can have sales Order with Item..

In MD50 you can give only one item at a time.
Its a standard transaction meant to accomodate changes relevant for MRP after plant level MRP run related to specific sales order Item.
so either you need to do it multipal times by changing material or you need to go for MD02.
Please explain bussiness case in detail why you want to restrict your MRP run for items in a specific sales order.

Production orders not to be considered during MRP run

Dear SAPeers,
i want to know how to ensure that open production orders are not considered during the MRP run.
the following is the scenario.
PIR for march after MRP run creates a planned order. this planned order is converted to production order. now this production order is processed but not completely confirmed and TECOed after a certain quantity has been produced.
now we delete the old PIR and create a new PIR in the next month. now we revoke the TECO status of the production order and run MRP. I want to know how to avoid MRP from considering the open production order and create planned order for the complete PIR quantity.
Thanks and Regards
Srinivasan

Srini,
what i am worried is shortfall of raw materials in case they were to open the production order in the current month after the planning has been done. how do we allocate raw materials for both the plan as well as the open production order?
Okay, you presumably had RM available for all of your production orders (and those RM were balanced by the reservations from the production orders). Now, you TECO the production order. In effect, any un-issued RM are now released and freely available for other orders/planned orders. Now you plan the following month. Those RM that were freed can and will be used for the new plan. Odd business process, but OK. Now, you re-open the production orders, and, yes, you will have a shortage unless you run RM MRP again. This is, ah, inconsistent with any business process I have ever seen.
The question that jumps to mind is, "Why re-open the old production orders at all? Alternatively, why were they TECOd in the first place?" If one knows that he intends to complete an order in production, one does not normally TECO the order, and then later reverse the TECO.
With respect to my name, I must unfortunately keep a low profile. Ever since I escaped from the mental institution, the thought-police have been hunting for me. I do not wish to be the recipient of any further electroshock 'treatments'.

Discontinuation Material in MRP run

Hi,
In our scenario, we are using Discontinued parts with (Discontinuation Ind - 1, Effectivity-out date - Nil) with follow-up material in MRP4 view of MM.
It is observed that whenever there is no sufficient stock exist, dependant requirement is not transferred to the follow-up material during MRP run. However is the same is happening during Material Availability check.
Is there any IMG setting for this to happen during MRP run also.
Thanks in advance.
Parthasarathy P

Hi ,Parthasarathy,
if an item to be disticontinued item , the following must be true.
1. you have to define Discont ind= 1, and followup material in MRP VIEW,
2. Both Discont item and followup items should have same base unit of measure.
3. When BOM of Header Material creation, discontinuation data is maintained for the discontinued item and follow-up data is maintained for the follow-up item -in CS01.
4. Then you have to assign some value for Discontinuation Group in "Discontinuation Data" for your Discot item in BOM. -in CS01
5. Then create a followup group with same value of Discont Group for yourFollowup item -in CS01.
During the MRP run the Dependent requirements of header material will be transferred to Followup item if it is not enough stock of Discont item.
Please check your Discont data has defined in BOM. The value of Discont group and follow group should be same.
please letus know for further doubts...
