Multiple MRP areas to be handled with MD04

Hello to all,
my scope is to advice the user in MD04 when there are other MRP-Areas for the same material in the same plant and maybe offer a function to jump there directly. I am looking for suggestions how to solve this, maybe one of you did it already...
Thanks to all
Joerg

Hi ,
Yes u can use multiple MRP area for the single plant & SAp has given Provision to go to differant MRP area from MD04 , only u have to cchange the MRP area option in the MD04 screen , you will directly jump to given MRP area of that material & u will get the stock & MRp element details of the selected ,material.

Define multiple crop area's, same size with overlap

Is it possible to define multiple croparea's at once in CS3/CS4?
Is it possible to define them and move each crop area a certain amount?
I want to split a citymap into different page's (like an atlas) and export them separately as PDF or EPS.

Daniel,
You are not going to get Illustrator to replicate your FreeHand workflow. So far, every new function which Illustrator has borrowed from FreeHand since Adobe aquired it (including multiple pages) has fallen far short of FreeHand's treatment.
There still is no Lens feature in Illustrator. There still is no option to export just the selection (absolutely stupid).
Yet another unsatisfying workaround that might work for youi in CS3:
If you haven't already, in Document Setup, set the artboard to the size of the full map.
In the Print Dialog, General pane, set Media Size to the desired size for one portion of the map.
In the Print Dialog, Setup pane, set Tiling to Tile Full Pages. Click Done (not Print).
View>ShowPageTiling. Illustrator displays dotted lines indicating the numbered page tiles.You can get the utterly lame Page Tool (it's under the Hand tool), and click somewhere to set the page tiling origin where you want it (usually at the bottom left of the Artboard.
Save A Copy as PDF. Turn on the option for Create Multi-page PDF from Page Tiles.
The resulting PDF will have separate pages, with the map sliced up according to the Page Tiles. The artwork does not actually get sliced; objects which cross the bounds of a PageTile just get masked in the PDF.

DP forecast release on MRP area

Hi Experts,
We are having multiple MRP areas within a distribution center. The sales history is available in R3 with the associated sloc as the delivering sloc.
Can i get this history in DP , do a forecast & release it on MRP areas in APO? What are the precautions to take care in this cycle.
Regards,
Vinay

Hi Vinay,
If you want to do forecast in MRP area level in DP, than follow the below steps:
1. CIF MRP area to APO using integration model.( MRP area will be appeared in APO as Location)
2. Create a characteristic with MRP Area.
3. Do forecasting at MRP area level or dis-aggregate to MRP area level.
4. Release the forecast to ECC.
Hope this answer your query.
Thanks

Pass on Material requirements to MRP areas within Plant

- We are on ECC 6.0 & have a scenario wherein material requirements from depots are passed on to respective plants according to the settings defined in the Special Procurement key in the Material Master (MRP View)
- The requirement from depots are passed on to the manufacturing plant & further down to the Plant in which MRP areas are defined, in the form of Planned Orders, if the stock is not sufficient at depot.
- For Subcontracting, we have various MRP areas within a single separate plant. The requirement is that PR that is generated for STO should be able to pass the requirement to an MRP area (after stock checking at MRP area level), (system to decide the MRP area to be selected for passing on the requirements).
- Currently the system is passing the requirements & checking the stock at plant level only.
- Stock determination rules donu2019t seem to work here.
- The opening up of the u2018Issue storage locationu2019 in STOu2019s by config: (u201CPurchase order-> - Set up Stock Transport order - > Set up Stock Transfer between storage locationsu201D) is yet to be tested.
- But in that case, only a single MRP area is defined for the material & therefore the requirements may flow directly to that particular MRP area. In case of Multiple MRP areas being defined for a single material, how can we ensure that the system determines a stock checking at one particular MRP area & pass on the requirements to it.
Seeking guidance as to how this issue can be resolved.
Precisely,
REQ.FRM>FLOW TO>AS (MRP element)
Depot>Plant 1>Planned order (PlOrd)
Plant 1>Plant 2>Material reservation (MtlRes)
Plant 2>MRP area of Plant 2>Transfer reservation (TrnRes)

dear colleague,
Please check the following info that can be useful:
1) Note 358936 is relevant for MRP areas of type storage location and
   not for Subcontractor MRP areas (which you would be knowing).
2) Secondly this note was created as an advance development and not
   for any particular customer problem. It was also feasible to
   develop this functionality with a small change.
3) The feature of procurement with Schedule lines for components
   in subcontractor MRP areas is not available in the standard SAP
   suite and there are no plans to develop this in the near future.
   This feature would be an advance development.
best regards

Can PIR created at wbs element and MRP area of storage location level

Hi,
I tried to create an planned independent requirement at MRP area and WBS element level, but failed. The MRP area is not plant level, but storage location level.
*When trying to create account assignment category Q for it, then there is an error message saying:*
**only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level.**
Does it mean it is not possible to create planned independent requirement for this case?
Thanks!

Select the "Issue storage location" as '2' here:
spro -> production -> material requirement planning -> mrp groups -> overall maintenance of mrp groups -> overview -> mrp control parameters at material level -> (field) Issue storage location selection
& make sure:
1. In the BOM issue storage location is blank for the components
2. For the FG products , in mrp area prod.storage loc is maintained
3. Components are extended to the mrp area.
Pl. revert with the results

GR Processing time using MRP areas

Hi Experts,
I have setup where the same materials is purhcased but planned indemendent using MRP areas. There is a requirement to maintain a different GR Processing time to the material depending on the MRP area. I am only able to maintain the GR processing time on the "general material master" and not in the MRP areas.
Please give me input on how to solve this?
Thanks in advance.
Anders

Hi,
I have
1) created a MRP Profile with GP processing time 1.
2) on MRP 2 left the GR processing time blank =0
3) Assigned a MRP are to the material with reference to the MRP profile
= GR processing time updated in MRP2 view
Do you have other suggestions?

MRP Areas Activation

Is there an option for one to only activate MRP Areas for a specific plant instead of activating for all plants in client?
Thanks.

MRP area activation is must if you would to carry out planning using "scope of planning"...in scope of planning you can group the plants or storage location or sub-contractors and run the MRP at one time. This you can do from MDBT/MD01 transaction in backgorund/online. This option for carry out plannning for MRP areas is not available with other transaction like MD02/MD03.
If you are working with plant level MRP from MD01/MDBT and not using the MRP area then you just have activate the MRP for plant from OMDU transaction. For this MRP area activation is not neccesary.
"MRP area Activation will not effect to the plant which are enabled for plant level MRP from OMDU transaction" Both are having different significance and importance.
Hope the above clarifications is clear.
If satisfy please close this thread or please inform for any more doubts.

PR in MRP Area not appeared

Dear SAP Guru,
hi, i have a case if anyone can help !
i have material X with MRP area R0001 (Vendor 0001) with plant A, when i run MRP .. PR exist in MRP area R0001
but when i change MRP area into R0020 (Vendor 0020) and set deletion flag MRP area R0001 (vendor 0001) and run MRP
the result not in MRP area R0020 .. but in plant level MRP area that's MRP area A
why the result not int new MRP area R0020 ? can anyone help this issue
thank you
Regards
Budhi
Edited by: A_Budhi_P on Oct 27, 2010 5:46 AM

Hi
For the Material X
=========================================
You have Created the new MRP AREA >>>>> R00020.
Also, you mentioned that, deletion Flag is set for the Old MRP AREA >>>>R0001
=========================================
After Creating this New MRP AREA>>>R0020,
1) Did you assigned this New MRP AREA >>.>R0020 in the Material Master (MRP1 ) for the material X ?
2)When Running the MRP,
you have to run the MRP with the MRP AREA>>.>R0020. Means, you have to enter the following
Material : x
MRP AREA : R0020
Plant : Plant Code
Then run the MRP
In this case you will get PRs, against the requirements of the Material x, For the given MRP AREA>>>R0020
Please check & revert

MD04 - Subreq - Storage location MRP area

Hi all,
I have an issue of Subreq in MD04 which is not assigned to the the good MRP area.
I'm explaining :
Business process
   -> I work with a subcontractor
        case 1 : either I buy raw material to be processed and delivered it directly to my subcontractor
        case 2 : either I send raw material from my physical stock to my subcontractor
   -> I create subcontracting purchase order with indication as components, the raw material.
   -> In case of the components are already in my subcontractor (case 1), the reservation (Subreq) should not consume my physical stock.
   -> In case of the components are in my physical stock (case 2), the reservation (Subreq) should consume the physical stock.
Solution choosen
Then I decided to create a storage location MRP area : "EXTERN" as External.
I assigned a storage location "EXT" to this MRP area.
I assigned this MRP area to the material in MRP1 / MRP Area.
In the purchase order, in the components popup,
For case 1 : I assigned "EXT" as Prod.Stor.Loc and Supply area
For case 2 : nothing special is filled
Issue
For the case 1, althought I assigned the storage location "EXT", the Subcontractor Requirement is not attached to the good MRP area.
WHY?
Remark : I didn't use the subcontracting MRP area because I would like to have 2 cases : case 1 & case 2.
Thank you in advance for your help about this problem which make me nervous !

Hello Catherine
Your system is working as designed. The following note explains the system design in more detail:
503497 - Subcontracting and MRP areas
Take a look on the relevant information provided by this note below:
Reason and Prerequisites
The most important point to understand the system behavior is the fact that the withdrawal of the (subcontracting) component is generally carried out during the goods receipt for an SC procurement proposalfrom the subcontractor stock that is managed at plant level from an inventory management point of view and that has no reference to a storage location at all.
This causes that subcontractor requirements can never enter a storage location MRP area, since you can later not post the withdrawal from this MRP area.
Thus SC-requirements always enter the SC segment of the plant MRP area or the SC-MRP area.
The SC MRP area in turn is supplied by stock transfer reservations from the plant MRP area or via third-party order processing through procurement proposals with goods receipt directly to the subcontractor. A supply through the materials planning from a storage location MRP area is not possible.
For the above reason, SC-requirements do also not carry any storage location, since the storage location does not have any control function at all for SC-requirements:
You cannot and you should not determine a storage location MRP area (see above), and the subcontractor MRP area is determined via the vendor of the procurement proposal, thus it is independent of the storage location.
See also Note 376050 on this topic that makes a modification available which prevents the deletion of the storage location in the subcontractor requirements, so that you can use, for example, customer-specific reports to analyze the storage location.
Please observe that the mentioned modification note 376050 only makes the storage location available on table RESB, so that you can use it on custom report. This modification will not make the storage location to be considered by MRP or on MD04.

Problem with MRP area

Gurus,
I had activated MRP area for exisitng client.
The scenario is,
Within a plant i have two MRP area. One is plant level (A) and the other one is storage location level (B)
A finished good and its components belongs to both the MRP areas. (A and B) I created a Planned Independent Requirement for finished good at storage location MRP area (B) and run MRP via MD02 for MRP area B, i got a planned order at MRP area B. But the dependent requirements for the components are created at MRP area (A) plant level.
My requirement is to get the dependent requirements at MRP area B for pegged requirements of MRP area B.
Suggestion to this isue is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Aravind

Hi pravin,
Thank you for the reply.
Initially my client was not activated for MRP area. So when i activated MRP area, throughout my client for each of the existing plants an MRP area is created by default. So, all the materials that belongs to the plant, by default belongs to the plant MRP area.(A)
I created one more Storage location level MRP area (B) and assigned that to MRP 1 view of the finished good and all of its components. I also created a planned independent requirement for the finished good at MRP Area B. that is i can see the requirement in MD04 screen only with the MRP area B and not in MRP area A.
Then i ran MRP for the finished thru MD02 for MRP Area B. I got a planned order in MD04 of MRP area B.
As you are aware MD04 screen is specific for particular MRP area.
This planned order is not displayed in MD04 screen of MRP Area A. But the dependent requirements for the components are not displayed in MD04 screen of B. But the dependent requirements are seen in MD04 Screen of MRP area A.
As per my understanding the dependent requirements of components should be displayed in MD04 screen of B as my pegged requirements are from MRP area B.
Kindly suggest and please let me know if any thing is not clear.
Regards,
Aravind

Subcontracting with MRP areas / Customer consigment

Dear all,
I'm currently looking for some information regarding subcontracting processes with MRP areas.
On the first hand I need a general overview how subcontracting purchase orders would be handled with MRP areas. In addition I'm really interested in the replenishment of the subcontractor stocks. On the other hand some facts about the customizing would be fine.
My second topic is consigment stocks at the customer. So I need similar information as for the MRP areas but regarding this customer consigment.
It would be really great if someone has some literature recommendations or official documentations about these issue.
Many thanks in advance!
Regards
Enrico

Hi Enrico,
Working with subcontracting and MRP area's gives you the option to plan the requirements for the subcontractor separately and you can then order the components separately. This functionality is used when working with scheduling agreements and direct deliveries to the subcontractor as there this is a requirement.
A second instance where one would use and MRP area with sucontracting is that when a material is used both by the subcontractor and it's also used directly in the plant production. The requirements for the subcontractor can be separately planned using an MRP area.
The following links may give you some more information regarding working with subcontracting and MRP area's

Help with POST data if multiple selections are chosen

I've created a form with a menu (list) that includes all 50
states. I'm using the POST option, along with PHP, to process the
form data, which will be emailed to me. The list-menu looks like
this:
http://askdave.info/help/states_menu.gif
and I have "Allow Multiple Selections" checked in the Property
Inspector.
If the user chooses multiple states, I want
EACH of those states to be listed in the email that I
receive. Right now, if I check multiple states, I only get
the very last state that's selected. For example, here's the
email I get after I check 5 different states.
http://askdave.info/help/formdata.gif
Problem--> In this email, only one state is listed
(Hawaii) even though I selected 5 different states. How do I get
the form data to list ALL states that are checked?
Here is what I have:
<form name="form1" method="post" action="process.php">
<input type="hidden" name="required"
value="name,phone,email,states,capital" />
And then for the menu that lists the states, I have:
<label>
<select name="states" size="7" multiple id="states">
<option>All States</option>
<option>Alabama</option>
<option>Alaska</option>
<option>Arizona</option>
<option>Arkansas</option>
and so on...
What am I missing? How do I get the PHP script to send
multiple values, if multiple values are chosen? (I'm new to PHP, so
go easy on me. I can post my code, if necessary.) Is this a PHP
issue, or do I need to add something to the HTML form?

Hi,
>>
I think DynaForm stands for Dynamic Form
>>
this makes some sense ;-) I was just wondering because there
is a pre-made script called DynaForm
here, but
it has a different "logistics" than yours.
However, both "DynaForm" versions are pretty basic, as they
just deal with non-multiple values - form fields like single line
input fields, texareas and non-multiple select´s. Your script
e.g. just loops through all existing form fields using the
"foreach" method:
//Pulls form fields & values.
foreach ($this->post as $field => $value) { // looping
through all form fields
if ( $field == 'required' ) continue;
$this->_addLine($field, $value); // here´s where the
field´s name/value consolidation happens
...and simply consolidates a field´s "value" with its
associated "name". The problem is : this method just works for
fields having just 1 value -- but any "multiple value" form fields
(e.g. your "states" select or checkbox groups which can pass
multiple values as well) actually require a separate "foreach"
treatment within the script, and this hasn´t been incorporated
here.
That said, I suggest using an other pre-made solution like
PHP
Form Mail script that´s capable to handle your multiple
values - scenario innately.

Error while posting Customer with Multiple sales areas using DEBMAS05.

Dear experts,
We are generating IDOCS vis SAP DS for posting Customer master. The message type used is DEBMAS and basic type is DEBMAS05. we have a requirement to create 1 customer with multiple sales areas. However, we are ending up with a strange error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1". Despite the IDOC going into status 51, the customer gets created and the 1st sales area too. the 2nd sales area however is not created! The IDOC data definitely contains Name1, otherwise the customer would not have been created in the first place.
As the error message is related to the Address data, I also explored upon exploring this erorr further on the lines of Central Address management where in the ADRMAS and DEBMAS have to be passed together(IDOC Serialiization). OSS Note (384462) provides further details about this. One Important point from the note is:
"As you have to specify the logical name of the sending system among other things, SAP is not able to make any default settings in the standard systems. When you use the serialization groups delivered as a standard by SAP, the address objects are imported before the master objects.Thus the sequence address data before master objects must only be adhered to if one of the following points applies to your application:
Such fields are set as required entry fields that are only provided by the BAS in the Customizing of the customer or vendor master.
For your customers, contact persons exist to which a private address or a different business address is assigned.".
This is not the case in our situation, as we do not have required entry fields in customizing that are only provided by the BAS, so the error is all the more confusing and I am not too sure what the cause is.
If someone have experienced the same issue before and have found a solution to it, kindly help out.

I have found the cause and solution to this problem.
This error ”Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1” and other similar errors like “Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-SORT1“ which occurrs during the IDOC posting when there are more than one sales area or company code occurs when the customer number range is set up for Internal numbering. This means, that the number gets generated only at the time of save and upon debugging the IDOC, we found out that after creating the customer and the first sales area/company code record, the segment E1KNA1M is cleared completely! This is the reason, it throws an error which points to a mandatory KNA1 field as missing. (Like NAME1, SORT1 etc.)
This was resolved by splitting the IDOC into 2.
The solution is to First post only the KNA1 segment and create the customer.
In the second step, pass the IDOC with all other segments along with E1KNA1M, but pass only KUNNR in E1KNA1M and the rest of the fields in E1KNA1M as “/”: you would have got the KUNNR after the first step.
Important note: This requirement to split the IDOCs does not occur when the customer number is known upfront. (Meaning cases where the customer number is externally generated) I also tested this and created a customer with external numbering and I was able to post more than 1 sales area with the same IDOC.
I noticed multiple threads with the same issue, but none of it had a concrete answer. I hope this information will be useful for anyone facing similar problems.
Cheers

Replenishment delivery for material with MRP areas and Avl Check

HI We have MRP area at storage location level maintained for materials. Stock exists in the plant in the storage location which is part of the MRP area.
Now when I create STO and try to create delivery for the same, system is giving message 0 stock available and not creating delivery. Material has 02 Avl Chck group.If I deactivate the MRP area in the material master, it allows creation of delivery.
How can I ensure that system creates delivery even though stocks exist in MRP area relevant sloc only in the plant?
Sriram

1) According to SAP when inbound deliveries are used and your delivery item category is set up for mvt type 101, these should be received with transaction VL32N. If you use MIGO/MB0A instead the GR status in the delivery will not be updated. If you then report on open deliveries you'll notice that nothing is received in the course of time. Amazing. Now if you set up the delivery item category without the movement type your inbound will not even be GR relevant. Just one of these things that's nice to be aware of.
Check note 199703.

Report with multiple Detail Area

Hi All,
Please see the Report pointed to the link below:
[Report with multiple Detail Area|http://us.share.geocities.com/felix5ac/fairway.jpg]
Some Explanations:
========================
(1) The line with "ABCDEFGH..." is variable data coming from the database in the Detail Area
(2) The lines with "WBLNX'" "123, 123.12",
"WBLNX'"
are variable data associated with the same Heading: "ABCDEFGH..."
(2b) There can be multiple lines of data in the detail area (i.e. 1 or more "ABCDEFGH..." and the associated WBLNX and numbers...)
(3) Item Code Descriptions ==> is a Header Info
(4) ARL ... and FPHI... ==> are variable data and lines in these area can be 1 line; it can be 4 lines; it can be 10 lines...
(5) Lines FROM "Artwork Procedures..." to the the end of the page are static.
QUESTION:
===================
How do I best design these Report with the multiple detail areas? Again, please see link of the Report above...
Thanks and Best regards,
Felix

Hi Felix
You can place the less detailed fields in the regular sections of the report and wherever you require multiple lines you can use the subreports.
Hope this helps.
