MRP Type PD and VB combination

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have one req. as below,
I have one material which i want to run on both PD & VB type.
Means,
for simple example
1. I have one fert item in that one roh item bom.
first case:-
1. Roh item has min, max level is 500, 1000 ea. i.e. reorder level is 1000 ea.
2. if my roh has stock 400, system should generate requirement of 600.
3.& also if my fert item has 2000 requirement & if I take MRP RUN then system should genrate roh requirement is 600 & then 1000 nos.
Pls. advise me how i can achive this????
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vinayak

Hi Vinayak,
I guess you dint get an ans to your previous posting on the same issue.
Anyways i see a fundamental mis-alignment in your need.
You specify Min stock level as 500, Max as 1000. If present stock level is 400 & req. coming for 2000, you want the system to propose 600 + 1000, which implies, when you issue the entire 2000, the system will have 0 stock, is that what you're looking for? Can you justify the same?

Sales Order is not consider for MRP in MRP Type PD and Strategy 40

Sales Order quantity is not consider for net requirement calculating in MRP.
My MRP Type is PD and Strategy 40.
Also in MD04 Sales order is not appearing.

Dear,
Requirements to MD04 will flow based on the settings you maintain in OVZ9 for the combination of "Availability Check" and "Checking Rule". Here whatever fields you choose under the tab "In/outward movements", that will be considered.
It may be because of Requirement type Missing at schedule line category level . In MD04 requirement are pass on Either Individually or collectively . In Case of Individual each schedule line create one entry in MD04 ( Stock Requirement list)
So check the materail master for checking group is maintain or not?
Please refer this thread also,
Re: Sale order not reflecting in MD04
After that run MRP again and check the result.

MRP Type P1 and late firm schedule lines

Hello All,
     We are using MRP Type P1 which firms our schedule agreement schedule lines within the planning time fence (as desired). However, sometimes the supplier is late on delivery and the firm schedule line goes into the past.
     Is it possible to have MRP move the firm schedule line delivery date to today instead of going into the past?
     Thank you,
     Jerry

Hi ,
Bring process forward (reschedule in)
Within this rescheduling horizon, the net requirements calculation checks whether, after a requirement, a firmed receipt exists, which can be used to cover this requirement. Then the system displays a rescheduling date as well as the exception message Bring process forward for this receipt. The net requirements calculation then uses this receipt and the system will only create another procurement proposal if the receipt quantity is not sufficient to cover the complete requirement. Several firmed receipts can be used to cover one requirement.
It does not take in to account the GR processing time and it is purely based on the stock requirement date , parameters in Procurement and Scheduling in the Material Master
So it will consume the requirement backward scheduling and bring the Process forward.
Kumar which strategy are you using ? scheduling agreement is of weekly , daily or monthly bucket ?
How many days SA bring to Production and How many days SA for forecast you are doing ?
Are you using any Program to convert these SA in to PIR and upload ( using any program ) .

Difference between MRP Type PD and VB

Hi All,
I have a scenario, in which i have some doubts which i have mentioned below.
1. MRP Type 'PD' with maintaining Safety stock for the materials which have longer lead time. Will the safety stock which exists will cover both excess material consumption within the replenishment lead time and any additional requirements that may occur due to delivery delays.
2. MRP Type 'VB' with maintaining Safety stock, reorder point, Maximum stock level for the materials which have longer lead time. Here the safety stock which exists will cover both excess material consumption within the replenishment lead time and any additional requirements that may occur due to delivery delays.
3. MRP Type 'ND' with maintaining Safety stock.
Of all these 3 MRP Types, what will be the outcome after doing the MRP Run? Should I go for separate MRP run for VB type materials?
Please give the solution.
Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
PD: this requirement type considers teh requirements in terms of Sales orders,PIRs stock transfer requireements etc for the material and then does the net requirement calculation and creates procurement proposals accordingly. it also considers safety stock while doint the net requiremetn calculation.
VB: generally used for items with a fairly consistent consumption pattern. here the requirement depends on the safety stock and the current stock. if the current stock goes below the reorder point, then only a requirement is generated. besides the safety stock it does not consider any othe requirement.
ND; these items are not planned. so no effect of MRP run
normally for the VB type materials, a background job is scheduled that does the MRP run at predefined schedules.
even for items with PD, the MRP job can be scheduled at predefined intervals according to the MRP controllers or some other parameters like production schedulers, MRP group etc.
please let me know if u need more details

MRP type for two different types requirments( Sale order and PIRs)

Dear All,
We have requirment some materials we have sales order and PIRs. For sales order we want to consider with "MRP type" as PD and PIR we want to consider "MRP type" as VB manual reorder point planning.
Is there any stadard solution.
If standard solution not possible also poivde some inputs on enhancement.

Sailendra
Edited by: nivedita yadav on May 7, 2010 2:31 PM

Sailendra,
your post is confusing, how you want to different MRP type for same material?
and why its needed?
1) you can use MRP type PD , and incoming sales order will search in existing stock or will create procurement proposal ( depends upon what strategy you are using)
2) If you are using VB then when ever you stock will fall below the reorder point you maintained in material master , system will create new procurement proposal, here the manual means the value you need to maintained manualy for reorder point and safety stock.
In automatic reorder point planning, both the reorder level and the safety stock level are determined by the integrated forecasting program.
The system uses past consumption data (historical data) to forecast future requirements. The system then uses these forecast values to calculate the reorder level and the safety stock level, taking the service level, which is specified by the MRP controller, and the material's replenishment lead time into account, and transfers them to the material master.
hope it will help you.

Best MRP type and strategy to run MRP for component using PIR and forecast

Hi Experts,
I want to run MRP for Component parts. I need to run MRP based on Planned independent requirements and Forecast Data.
Which is the best suited MRP type and strategy.
Please help to share bestpractices if any. thank you.
Rayudu

Hi,
is the components you are talking are Semi finished materials or Raw materials and Packing materials which are procured from vendors ???....
It is not a good idea to maintain planning strategy for Components which are part of BOM...these materials are automatically planned when the header materials of these components are planned....
If these components are not part of any BOM then you can try the option of using forecast based planning.. MRP type VV and maintain the forecasting view in the material master
You can also explore the option of consumption based planning like manual or automatic reorder point planning...
Thanks
Kumar

MRP Type VV - Forecast Based Planning

Hi all,
My company would like to look at MRP Type "VV" - Forecast Based Planning (under Consumption-based Planning) for FG production materials.    I've read quite a bit about the concept and some based set up to how it works.   We would like to base Planned Orders > Production Orders based on this type of forecast planning.   It seem that SAP advises this kind of plannig for Raw Materials but not FG.   Anyway, what I really need to know are the specifics of how you set up the master data (in the Material Master) to properly execute this type of MRP: like....
MRP Type: VV
Lot Size: EX
Period Ind: W
Availability Check: 02
Forecast Period:   12
Periods per Season: 12
Historical periods: 60
other fields I'm not sure......
RP Profile: ??
Forecat Profile: ??
what else......?
Also, what is the recommended approach to convert this forecast plan into Planned requirements to be converted to Production Orders?
I appreciate any further information I can get on MRP Type "VV" and how it works.   I appreciate your input!

Thanks for the info nudratmaab.    Can you provide further data on what to expect given this forecast.....say I pick MVGA (Moving Average Forecast)? So I enter some consumption (say last 12 months) and run forecast (MP38).    The MD04 shows the average requirement per "W" bucket:
02/23/2012     ForReq     W 08/2012                16-
02/27/2012     ForReq     W 09/2012               116-
03/05/2012     ForReq     W 10/2012               116-
03/12/2012     ForReq     W 11/2012               116-
03/19/2012     ForReq     W 12/2012               116-
03/26/2012     ForReq     W 13/2012               116-
04/02/2012     ForReq     W 14/2012               116-
04/09/2012     ForReq     W 15/2012               116-
04/16/2012     ForReq     W 16/2012               116-
04/23/2012     ForReq     W 17/2012               116-
04/30/2012     ForReq     W 18/2012               116-
05/07/2012     ForReq     W 19/2012               116-
The next part is where it is a little foggy for me.   For "VV" do I run WRP1 (Replenishment) or do I run MD02/ 03 (MRP) and then what is the ForReq converted to (or does it even convert)?   I'm looking to implement this for Production Planning Requirements for Finished Produced products (I need them to convert to PldOrd (Planned Orders) to be converted to PrdOrd (Production Orders) by production scheduler.
The second part of this is the Raw Material (BOM component) associated with these Finished Goods. THese BOM components are set up as MRP Type "PD" and Lot size "EX" and I was hoping that the FG MRP run would also do BOM explosion and drive requirements for the Raw Material as well.....I'm not seeing that.
I need professional / expert to tell me how this works:    So MRP Type "VV" & Lot Size "EX" for the Finished Goods.......and MRP TYpe "PD" & Lot Size "EX" for the Raw Material (BOM Component).....
THanks again!!

MRP Type

Hi all
in my client for a material we have given MRP type as XO(external planning.
when ever we create sales order it will go to APO to availability check.
but now we want to do availability check in our plant first and if stock not found then it has to go to APO.
if we use MRP type ND then no MRP so it can do availability at our plant.but it not going to APO if stock not found.
Any suggestions Please let me know.

Filter MRP Type 'X0' in SDP94 Shuffler

We are bringing all Products relevant to MRP Types - X0 and PD. X0 used by SNP & GATP, PD used by only GATP. There is a business requirement to plan only 'X0' related products through SNP Heuristics. Without filtering 'X0' in shuffler some of the users are running heuristics, so we are receiving huge 'PD' requirements (POs, Planned Orders etc) in R/3.
How can we make a default selection in shuffler, which considers only 'X0' in heuristics?
We are using SDP94 to run Heuristics(Custom Planning Book/Data view).
I appreciate if some one throw some light on this.

Hi Philip
In your scenario I assume that MRP run for PD materials will be managed by a person different than the APO planner who takes SNP run.
Ideally you should have different MRP controllers for X0 and PD materials.
If you do this, you can easily exclude PD materials from SNP run if you choose products in shuffler by SNP planner. This will prevent PD materials being planned in SNP.
Hope this solves your problem

Item Category and MRP type for material is not allowed

Hello all,
I got a Error Message:
Transaction Z113 is not defined (Message no. V1347)
Diagnosis
This combination of item category Z113 and MRP type for material is not allowed.
System response
The system does not allow further processing of this item.
Procedure
Check your entry.
You can display the combination defined in table TVEPZ, which controls scheduling line category determination, and change it as required if you have the authorization to do so. The MRP type for the material may be changed in the material master.
The SD Configuration seems all right, I have:
Sls Doc Type (VOV8) ZA9 (no delivery type assigned)
Item Category (VOV7) Z113
Assigs Sls Doc & Item Ctgry (VOV4) ZA9/ZNOR/blank/blanl/Z113
ZNOR = Std Item-Av. chck Del
ZNOR defined in MM03/Sls Org 2
Define Schedule Line (VOV6) = Z7 (without delivery)
Z7 has FLAG on Prod Allocation
Assign Schedule Line (VOV5) = Z113/ND/Z7
At table: TVEPZ
I have the entry: Z113/ND/Z7
Guys, what would?
Please help me out because I am stuck in this issue.
Thanks a lot,
Barbara

Barbara, this may be tied to Strategy Group on the Material Master (I can't read enough into the detail)
Item Category determination + MRP Type for your schedule line type ties to a Sched. Line category(this you know)
New Rqmts class gets tied to a Rqmts Type
New Rqmts Type gets assigned to rqmts class
Strategy, assign the Rqmts Type to it
Strategy Group, Assign the Strategy to it
MM02 [MRP3 view] strategy group should be the one that ties together (all the other ties
It may be something in this area that you need to trace through ?

MRPgenerated requisitions and MRP type =VB

Hi Gurus,
I have the following question.
IF a material has the MRP type VB=manual reorder point planning, then when the stock falls below the reorder point, MRP generates purchase requisitions. For eg, on May 1st, MRP generated a requistion of 100 units of one material. Now, if no PO is created or no goods receipt done on May 1st of that material, will MRP run on the next day will create one more requistion of 100 units? Or there will be no requistion generated by MRP, as there is already a requistion of required qty sitting there?
Thanks,
Kumar

Dear Kumar,
MRP run is as per the business requirements and it can be run daily or weekly or monthly (or individually for a material using
MD02.).In your case since already one PR for the required quantity has been existing in the system,when MRP is run on
the next day the system does not create any additonal PR for 100 quantity,and if you run with a MRP control parameter with
value 3 for planning type - delete and recreate planning data,then the system will delete the old PR and generates a new PR for
the same 100 quantity.
Check and revert

Item category (Customized )ZJT1 and MRP type for material is not allowed

Hi Guys,
When i try to create the order i see the error as item category and MRP type of the material is not allowed.
I checked in Vov5 table, i could observe that Schedule line category is maintained.
Could you please help us in resolving this..
Thanks and regards,

Hi,
Please assign the Item Category ZJTI and MRP type (for eg: PD) assigned to the schedule line category in IMG under Sales and Distribution--> Sales ---> Schedule line -->Assign schedule line
Hope this resolve your issue

Material type questions and fields on the MRP tabs

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody please answer these questiosn for me?
1) material types determine what views will be created in the materil master right?
2) for materail types can we have procurement type as F, E or both?
3) MRP controller and purchasing group fileds on the material master, what are their significance? like which field will take importance in what ccase is my questions?
Can anybody please help me in answering these
thanks
Anmusha

All the materials which can be produce inhouse that only can have Procurement type E and The materials which can be procured externally always can have F.
The materials which can be manufactured inhouse as well as procure from external source can have both type procurement
eg. Raw material will always have F
Finish goods will have E
and SEMI finish can have both procurement type
the reason you can prodice inhouse, procure from outside or you can do sub contracting.
Yes, the material should have MRP controller to pull in MD07

Delivery type "LB" and MRP

Hi All
I work on the APO side and iam not thorough with MM . I have a question about the subcontracting scenario .
We provide components to the subcontractor who then makes the finished products and ships them to our plant. Let us assume we have a subcontracting requirement for 100 CS. We now create a delivery (ME2o) to the subcontractor for 100 CS ( delivery type LB) . When we look at MD04 the delivery created for 100 CS is not offsetting the subcontracting requirement of 100 CS. So we now have a demand of 100 + 100 = 200 CS which is actually not the case. Is this a standard SAP behaviour ?
I believe whenever we issue goods to the vendor the stock at subcontractor location (MatSub) increases and the dependent demand gets offset by stock at subcontractor location . But why doesnt a delivery to the vendor offset the dependent demand ? Please help
Thanks
Saradha

Hi ,
I think planning strategy group plays a role in consuming the requirements along with MRP type (defined at material level)
check out MRP3 view -> Planning , Strategy group.
