MRP4 View: Significance of Individual/Collective indicator

Hi,
Ref : MRP 4 view , Field : "Individual/Coll."
Request to give the significance of the above field.
I am not able to understand the help data available for the filed in SAP.
If possible request to give example to elaborate the significance
Regards
Nitin

Hi,
This indicator is useful in case of sales order planning.
If u enter 2, in collective/individual for component, then in component stock requirement list u can see there is no reference to sales order.
That is commom stock will be consider by system.
If u enter indicator 1 or no entry, in MTO after creation of sales order, for component sales order stock will be created. U can see the sales order in component stock requirement list. The common stock of component will not consider the common stock. Pr will be generated for the component/ For this situation u have to transfer common stock material to sales order stock.It depends of the requirement of company. Where to check common stock or sales order stock.
Check the above & reward if found suitable.

Suhas

Individual Collective indicator

Hi
Is there any report abt Individual collective indicator
I need a report regarding the requirements created on each date for the collective requirement of the material
I have maintained collective indicator for the material
Regards
Anand Srinivasan

Dear Anand,
There's no standard report regarding the individual/Collective Requirements.
But still if you want the list of materials with 1 - Individual Requirements only or 2 - Collective Requirements
only,you can get it from the table MARC in T code SE16.
Regarding your second part of question i'm sure whether you are l;ooking for this,
If you want the total Requirements for those materials,then go to T code MD73 - give the Requirements
Plan as * and enter the plant and the date range and proceed.

View Reports for individual Collections

Hello,
Is there a way to view Reports for individual Collections? When I review my Usage Reports or look at Reports within the PSM I only get a break down of total user actions per day for the whole site. I don't see a way to view data for just a single Collection. It would be extremely helpful to me and my faculty if we could see reports or stats for specific Collections. For example, if I could see total subscriptions and downloads for HIST1010. It'd be even better if we could view totals for whole months rather than each day of the month but at this point any data about a whole individual Collection would be great. Any help in viewing the data in this way is really appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Syd,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply. I was able to use your directions to pull stats for the last few weeks for the faculty member who requested this info.
My dream (if Apple is reading) would be to view monthly stats and have that information attached to each course so faculty members could view and sort that information on their own. This would be especially helpful because as our site continues to grow and I continue to encourage faculty to manage their own content, the ability to access the data on their Collections would provide great feedback on how their ocntent is being used. Being able to see how frequently the content they're taken the time to make is being used could be empowering.
Anyway, thanks again for assisting with how to access the data that is currently available.
Best,
Nikki

Individual / collective indicator in MRP 4

What is the use of this indicator and when to use individual and colloective option ?

Hi,
If you maintain Individual requirement seeting in MRP 4 view , always a PR or Planned order is generated aginst the WBS element based on Procurement type setting ( E or F). If a PR is genearated, and is converted to PO and when we do GR of the item , for a valuated stock , Stock and price will be in project stock not in actual cost. ( can see report in T-code GR55. Report Z6P2.)
If you maintain collective requirement seeting. Always a reservation is created against the network activity. Once the item is issued against the reservation , cost is debited from the activity and item is consumed. No stock. Cost will booked to actual cost.
Can check the same by testing with same material ....
first have seeting as a Individual requirement. Genrate PR , convert to PO , do GR and check MMBE (stock report) and GR55 cost reprot.
next time same material , change setting to collective requirements, Reservation is created , DO GI against that resevation. Check MMBE ( No stock should be there ) , Check GR55 cost should be booked in actual cost.
No change in costs. Only change in the flow of qnty and cost.
Thanks

Material Master MRP4 Individual / Collective Requirement

Hi All,
I would like to ask in case I want to use the Individual / Collective Requirement functionality in Material Master MRP4 view, is it a MUST to set the Strategy Group in MRP3 view to 20 : Make-To-Order Production? Because I find if I dun set this field, nothing happens after I execute MD01 for the MRP Run.
Another query is in case the Stock Requirement is on two different dates, can I still group them together into one Plan Order or one Purchase Requisition using the selection - 2. Collective Requirement selection?
Many Thanks.

Yes Individual / Collective indicator only works for MTO strategies.
Another query is in case the Stock Requirement is on two different dates, can I still group them together into one Plan Order or one Purchase Requisition using the selection - 2. Collective Requirement selection?
You can but if the dates are different you have to use Periodic Lot Size.like PK.and all requirements within one period will be grouped together and they will be planned together.

What is the functionality of Bom explosion individual/collective in MRP 4 View

Hi Experts.Please give idea about what is the use of functionality of BOM explosion Individual/collective in MRP view 4.How this function will work in strategy 10 and 20.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is a very generic question...If you explore in forum or net you will get lot of information...
This is normally used in make to order strategies like 20, 50 etc...
The individual/collective indicator in the material master record determines
whether a component is procured for a special customer requirement in the
individual segment.
The indicator "1" for individual requirements means that the material is being
specially manufactured or procured for a sales order. A special individual segment
is created for each requirement. An individual requirement is only created if the
higher-level material does not create a collective requirement.
The indicator "2" for collective requirements means that the material is produced
or procured for various requirements. You can find these requirements in the net
requirements segment.
The indicator "blank" means that the component is to be planned in the same way
as the higher-level assembly.
In the above example, two individual segments are created for the shaft for sales
orders A and B.
Thanks

b) What is BOM Explosion No?? please let me know this functionality and the configuration steps if any..
Thanks

Hi,
u2022Individual requirements
Requirement quantities of the dependent material are stated individually.
u2022Collective requirements
Requirement quantities of the dependent material are grouped together.
BOM Explosion Number:
1) Starting from the MRP menu, choose Master data -> BOM explosion number -> Edit.
The system displays the initial screen for maintaining the BOM explosion number.
2) Choose Execute.
The screen for maintaining the BOM explosion numbers now appears.
3) Choose New entries.
A screen now appears where you can enter new BOM explosion numbers.
Enter data as required.
BOM explosion number - The BOM explosion number is the object for which the following data is maintained. It can be entered alphanumerically.
Fixed key date - The fixed key date determines which bill of material is exploded.
Plant - You can also specify a BOM explosion number for a specific plant. Enter the appropriate plant in this case.
Material - You can specify a BOM explosion number for a specific material. Enter the appropriate material in this case.
Status - You can set the BOM explosion number to active or inactive using the status field. Only active BOM explosion numbers are used in the planning run.
4) Save your entries.

Individual/Collective Requirements MRP4 View

I have a situation where my top level material (FERT) is a MTS item (reorder point planning). In the BOM is an intermediate (HALB). Due to the nature of my process I must have a 1:1 relation ship of the HALB to the FERT. However: as many have pointed out, where I have multiple production orders for the FERT, the MRP behavior is to combine multiple order reservations for the HALB into one planned order, regardless of the individual/collective requirement setting. There must be a way to get a planned order for each order reservation in this MTS situation. I know that I am not the only one who has this requirement. Any advice/expertise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Mgf,
I believe expert Sundaresan has answered your question - for Baseline SAP.
In addition to Baseline, though, SAP offers several addons that are industry specific, and some of them appear to me to be tailored to industries in which Milliken is a participant.
Check out the standard industry addons in

You also might want to consider hiring a consulting company to explore possible SAP solutions for you.

Individual/Collective Requirement indicator in MTS

Hi Gurus,
Can you please let me know what is the relevence of individual/Colelctive Requirement indicator from MRP4 view of material..
for Finished product as well as its sub assembliees in case of make to Stock planing strategies.
i know how it works in MTO and how depednent requirements can be grouped together or sepated based on this indicator.
When i tested the same in case of MTS, i found for dfinished product as well as sub assemblies behaviour is always like collective irrespective of MRP4 indicator.
any thougts lets me know.

Dear Santhosh,
MRP-4 as 1 : In individual planning, this indicator is used to display the dependent requirements of a component separately.
MRP-4 as 2 : In collective requirements, this indicator is used to display the dependent requirements of a component grouped together.
This Indicator is useful to control the planning of dependent requirements if the main product is being planned with strategy 20 ie; MTO Process.

What is exactly difference btw individual collective call blank and 1?

Hello all
Could you please to help me get ride of that what is exactly difference btw blank and 1 in MTO scenario?
it is better if you guy can show me a example.
Thanks

Hi,
In case of any requirement through sales order, it will be the special stock categoery E and material should have Individual and Collective Indicator as 1 in MRP4 view .It depends on what item category you are going to use in the sales order .
In MTS strategy, You can't achieve based on each requirement But you can get the plan order( system will combine all the requirement ) generated.
Example
If you have Asembly Material A, and components X,Y & Z for A.
For MTO
MRP generates the Planned Order for the Assembly and components with respect to the sale order requriement.
Fot MTS
MRP generates the Planned Order for the assembly and components based on the stock requirement.

Individual/Collective in BOM With Phantoms

Hello All
Iu2019m working with variant configuration using strategy group 65.
My BOM has several levels and the first level is always a phantom.
When exploding the BOM MRP create individual requirements for each component.
Because the components are used in other finish goods with different strategy I don´t want to set in the mater data the individual collective flag to 2. Instead I create e new explosion type in the BOM to create collective requirements.
My problem is that MRP bypasses this explosion type from the BOM when the component is phantom which forces me to enter it at the level of the no phantom component.
Is possible by any means force MRP to only create Collective Requirements for the Components of a MTO ?
Thereu2019s any chance to force SAP to Look to the explosion type in the phantoms and create only collective requirements?
Thanks for your comments
Pedro Coelho

Dear
I do not think so it is possible in Standrad MTO process .
In MTO process , you can not club all the Depedent Requirement ( Phantom BOM -componenets ) in to one PR utlising MRP4 individual and Collective Indicator .
Basically indiviaul /collective indicator MRP4 as 2 then PRs or planned orders will be generated during the MRP run for dependent requirements with account assigned to respective WBSE or Sale order
Where as at header level it will work like this : Individual and collective indicator in mrp4 view
Just check this

Individual/collective req ind

Dear experts,
I'm using MTO. I have multilevel bom structure. I have faced a problem.
For example I have a material in level2 followed individually according to customer order. I want the level3 materials to be managed collectively. I'm setting all the materials collective indicator in 3rd level. But sometimes I forget to create the MRP view of the 3rd level material. Then the system plans the requirements of 3rd level according to 2nd level and as the 2nd level followed individully this 3rd level material is also planned individually.
My question comes: Is there any way to define the system plan the materials always collectively if mrp view does not exist or if I don not set any indicator.

Hi,
Yes you can set the collective/Indual indicator with out MRP view also..
In the BOM you can set..
In component details there got a Explosion type for this explosion type in the background setting set as collective requirement and assign the same in the BOM items.
hope clear..
Revert me if any issue

MRP4 view exclude storage location & material provided by vendor/customer..

Hi
Could anyone please tell me in MRP4 view for a material,where is the option so that i can exclude or include the storage location stock from MRP?
and also in which T code i should indicate the material is provided by vendor/material provided by customer?In CS01wher's this option?
Please help me
Thanks & regards
Raj

Hi Karthik,
MRP area is nothing to do with storage locations settings in MRP4 view. If you want to activate MRP area and use the MRP run at MRP area level then you have to customized MRP area either at storage location level or sub-contractor level (in MRP master data settings )... then you need to assign this MRP1 view of the material and with valid MRP type. Now when you run the MRP then planning will be carried out at this MRP area for this part.
With storage location indicators in MRP4 view (must enter with putting the stoarge location values from MM02/MM03) you can exclude the stock of this storage location (indicator 1) in the palnning run or you can plan seperately with indicator2 with using re-order level. Here no need of MRP area.
If helps rewards points.
