Multiple Schedule Line Category significance
Hi,
I am a SAP SD newbie.. I am not able to understand the significance of Schedule line category..
Each item can have multiple schdule line caterories. But why would we need multiple of these.
Sap manuals are not very clear on the need for multiple schedule lines especially since they are automaticall determined.
So clarification would help me understand the concept..
Thanks
Kevin
Significance of Multiple Schedule Lines is that if the complete stock is not available at a given point of time & Partial Delivery allowed. For Example, Sales Order is for Quantity 100 (Partial Delivery allowed) & ready stock issay 30, which can be delivered on required delivery date & balance 70 may be available after 10 day. so there will be multiple schedule line, the first schedule line as not confirmed sales order on say 17th Jan, second schedule line as confirmed sales order of 30 on 17th Jan & third schedule line as confirmed sales order on 27th Jan.
Alternatively, customer places Sales Order of say 100 & provides an schedule say 25 numbers on 17th Jan, 25 numbers on 24th Jan & so on..., so accordingly schedule lines can be maintained.

What is the significance of Schedule line category
Pls let me know the role of Schedule line category in SD at various levels like documents etc
Hi Prem,
Schedule line Category is used to provide different control options for the items throughout the sales process. By defining a schedule line category, we
determine which schedule lines are actually relevant for Delivery. We must activate the relevant delivery indicator if we want the goods to be physically delivered.
We can activate a delivery block in the schedule line category, this block is then automatically set at the
schedule line level in the sales document.
In the schedule line category we set the movement type to control which changes to quantities and values are posted to inventory accounting.

Unable to enter multiple Schedule lines for BOM material in Sales Order
Hi All,
We have a Sales Order where in which we cannot add additional schedule lines for BOM material.
The schedule lines are greyed out, user was able to add schedule lines earlier.
I have checked all assignments in VOV6, VOV7 and everything seems to be fine and no changes have been made to item category being used.
Please provide a solution for this.
PFB link in which similar situation posted in this community but the final resolution method is not discussed.

SamikshHi Samiksh,
Pls check for that particular customer, only complete delivery allowed(c) is set in the CMR or CMIR. If so, you can't enter multiple schedule lines for that customer.. it would be grayed out in the sales order schedule lines except confirmed line.
or check the problematic sales order at item level shipping tab if the par del/item is set to 'C'
With regards

Billing in the basis of billing plan for multiple schedule lines
Hi All,
I have one scenario in which we have created milestoen billing via project systems in sales order. Now Suppose I have three line items in my sales order and against each line items we have maintained multiple schedule lines. ex. 10%, 40%,50% respectively. Similarly for other line items also we have maintained the same. Now I need to generate invoice on the basis of schedule lines(billing plan). for ex. single Invoice covers 2 schedule lines out of total schedule lines in the line item. Similarly for other line items.
Kindly guide.
Thanks.Hi
Your milestone billing plan integrates with PS means that you have an order related billing.
Hence schedule line is a confusing word and I assume it as a billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System confirms that the milestone is completed. The billing block will automatically be removed once the milestone is achieved.
Do maintain copy controls properly at item category level (VTFA) and your billing should happen standard SAP way.
If still you face any errors, please post the screenshots.
Thanks

Schedule line Category CN not defined.
hi all,
I am trying to create sales order using FM BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 in a program.
when i am giving multiple line items i am getting error Schedule line Category CN not defined.
this is happening when there is multiple schedule line items and they have different schedule item category.
if schedule line item category is same for all items it is creating sales orders.
even if there are items having schedule item category 'CN', they are processed correctly. the sales order is getting created. the problem arises only if there are mixed schedule item categories for multiple items.
is there any error in coding or some configuration is missing. I have searched a lot on SDN but did not find any specific solution??
Can anybody provide some help??
Thanks!!no solution

Schedule line category and item category
Hi all,
Can some body explain what is the use and differences between Schedule line category and item category?
Where exactly they come into picture when a sales cycle is done? it would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance.
ManuHi,
SCHEDULE LINE CATEGORY:-
Schedule line Category determines the Schedule lines for the Line item, it will determine whether the Item is relevant for Delivery or not
Transfer of Requirements are also controlled
Availability check at the Sales order is controlled with the Indicator set at SCHEDULE LINES
For Third Party processing, the Purchase requisition is created based on the Setting at schedule lines
Together with the ITEM CATEGORY , the schedule lines determine whether the Transaction is Relevant for MRP or not In the Transaction code VOV5
ITEM CATEGORY:-
Item category is a significant part in processing the sales document
Item category determines whether particular item is relevant for Delivery ot not,
Whether item is relevant for the Billing
In Determine the Availability and TOR Item category plays an important role, for example the Availability check at DELIVERY will be taken place based on the DELIVERY ITEM CATEGORY
Some Fnctionalities like OUTPUT, TEXT, PARTNER, INCOMPLETION are controlled
DIP which in the ITEM CATEGORIES is the Main Integration Between SD and PS

Join VBAK & VBAP and store data in an internal table GT_VBAP to get Sales order numbers, items, materials.
Get Open Sales order items from VBUP into GT_VBUP where VBUP-GBSTA NE 'C'.
LOOP at GT_VBAP.
Read table GT_VBUP with key vbeln & posnr.
If sy-subrc <> 0.
delete GT_VBAP.
endif.
****Fill your Final Report Internal table with required field values **Append into that internal table
ENDLOOP.
Now Select WMENG BMENG from VBEP into GT_VBEP for all entries in GT_VBAP.
LOOP AT GT_VBEP.
*******Again Modify your Final Report internal table with these values
***VBEP-WMENG is Ordered Qty
***VBEP-BMENG is Confirmed Qty
************Open Qty = Ordered Qty = Confirmed Qty***
************Open Qty = VBEP-WMENG = VBEP-BMENG.***
ENDLOOP.

Regarding multiple schedule lines in sales order with same date
Hi All,
we create the Orders from RFC and the orders are going to Multiple Schedule lines for the same date.
period delivery date ordered quan confirmed quantity
D 10/11/2007 10 0
D 10/11/2007 0 10
here for the same date in first line it is not confirming and in the second line it is confirming the quantity for the same date.
On what conditions it is possible??????
Any one have the solution for this Please send it to me [email protected]
Regards,
PrasadJust check the schedule line details i.e go to schedule line---shipping. You will find that although the del. date is same in both the case but the timings were different e.g material availability time etc will be different in both these lines. So though the dates may be same its time difference that's causing the second schedule line.

Multiple Schedule Lines for Individual Qty in Standard Order
Hello All,
I have a Client Requirement to Set up the Standard Order for a Material which will be sold on Single Quantity every Month.
This will have to occur from the same Order. For this Multiple Schedule Lines are required to be generated as per Monthly Delivery Schedule.
I know this functionality comes under Scheduling Agreements where we can deliver goods as per confirmed Schedule Lines for the Month.
But Client Requirement is to set up this functionality in Standard Order Only as setting up scheduling agreements calls for mapping of New Order Types which is not feasible.
So Can you provide with your valuable Inputs as to whether this can be possible through Standard Order in the system.
Looking forward to your esteemed reply!!
Warm Regards,
Onkar KhedekarDear Onkar:
If you don't want to use Schedule agreements, you can enter several schedule lines for each item in "Schedule line" tab at item level.
Enter in this tab each schedule line per month.
But be aware which date you enter becuase this requirement will be transfered to MRP.
Check it and revert.

How to create multiple schedule lines for configurable products
Hi -
We have enabled variant configuration and would like to have multiple scheudule lines created , but it seems that only one line is avaialble, is there any way to configure the use of multiple schedule lines?
Note - we are not using KMAT material types, rather triggering a unique kit compoments within Sales BOM.
We have been able to make the necessary adjustments to allow the creation of the Scheduling agreement and have the BOM explode correctly, but just am not able to trigger multiple sched lines.
thanks
BillYour context node shall contain all these fields like country,city,etc as different attributes.so in your view configuration,add all these fields whatever you require from the AVAILABLE FIELDS section to the DISPLAYED FIELDS section.NOw all these attributes would be added in diff rows.What you need to do is,select the first attribute,lets say COUNTRY,click on this attribute and then on the buttn SHOW FIELD PROPERTIES.Thsi will show you the label name etc.Here you change the label name to NATIONALITY.Also ,it will show you the row no,cloumn span of the field and column span of the label.You need to reduce the column span of the field value.Ie if the column span is from D TO H,reduce it from D TO F.Now goto the next attribute eg CITY and in the same way,goto the attribute properties.Here ,There is a check box SHOW LABEL,uncheck this,and now goto the row no and the cloumn span.Make the row no same as that of the COUNTRY FIELD.The column span should howevrbe statring from where the column span of country field ended.Ie Teh column apsn of counrty field ended at F .So for CITY,the column span should start from G to amybe H.Now this is how you need to accomodate the other fields also in the same row,by changing the row no and column span in the field properties.

Schedule line number determination - Schedule line category CP(MRP)
Hello All,
I want to know on what basis schedule line numbers getting determined.
Schedule line category: CP-MRP
Sales order line items getting confirmed based on the Planned order--> production order created through MRP run.
I have created sales order line item 1 with 100 quantities. for example I created today. RDD also today.
3 production order created.
Those production orders confirmation date as below.
Production order 1 - 60 quantities - 14.04.2014
Production order 2 - 30 quantities - 16.04.2014
Production order 3: 10 quantities - 18.02.2014.
There are four schedule lines for the line item 1.
All the 4 lines showed as per the confirmation date order.
But the schedule line numbers are not as per the above order.
For example,
Schedule line number ----- delivery date ----- Confirmed qty
1. 09.04.2014 0
3. 14.04.2014 60
2 16.04.2014 30
4 18.04.2014 10
On what basis this schedule numbers getting determined? Is there any standard procedure ?
Why schedule line numbers not inline with the confirmed date?
Let me know if you need more information.
Thank you.
Regards,
Rakkimuthu CHi,
Schedule line number is the number that uniquely identifies the schedule line .
Use When an item has more than one schedule line, the system automatically assigns a unique number to each line. The number is displayed in the details screens for schedule lines.
Note The schedule line number serves internal purposes and does not, for example, determine the sequence of schedule lines in the overview screen. The schedule lines on the overview screen are sorted by date.
The schedule line number will get created automatically by the system. I hope this will clarify your doubt. Thanking you. -

Sales order we have made schedule line category catCN but still reqt coming
Dear Sir,
Sub : For sales order 5000060 line 10 we have made schedule line category as CN but still system is giving requirement against this order (while running MRP T code MD50)
Details:
One user has made one FG material delivery with PGI without putting the picking quantity. He had put zero picking qty. When we click PGI button System does not allow to do PGI without putting the picking qty but how he could do it we do not know. Now there is no goods issue material document instead one confirmation of service document is there in doc flow .we can not open this document. if we click display by selecting this document in document flow system gives error - NO document created for confirm service/cancel transaction
All the delivery fields are gray out. Delivery qty is there in this delivery hence at sale order schedule line tab against the schedule line system is showing delivered qty -2.
Goods movements status is B- partially completed.
Also system is not allowing to reverse the delivery- it is saying-no data available for this selection criteria. Hence we are not able to do delivery against this item. Hence we have created sale order line item 20 & transferred this stock to line item 20 & did subsequent transactions.
Now system giving requirement for line item 10 .We have made schedule line category CN still system is giving requirement against delivery number in T code -MD 50 against sale order line item- there is customer order ,delivery, production order .delivery number never comes in MD50 .it is giving requirement against delivery.
Kindly let us know how to stop the requirement to generate from this sale order line item
Also kindly let us know how user could make this & how this might have happened & how to restrict this in future.
RegardsDear Sir,
When we create a sale order default sch line category is CN after few days (there is a specific reason) we change it to CP & run MRP
In this case we made the product by doing this but while doing delivery .user did some mistake & did PGI without picking qty in delivery.Now this qty is in delivery but there is no material document that stock has not yet moved .Since there was a problem in the delivery we have trasfered this stock to sale order line item 20.& did further transactions.
Afte this we did schedule line cat from CP to CN
But in MD50 system is giving the requirment against sale order ,delivery

How to use bapi to change so's schedule line category
dear friends:
I try to change so's schedule line category using bapi "BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE", but it doesn't work,the code is as following:
T_SCHEDULE_LINES-ITM_NUMBER = ITAB-POSNR.
T_SCHEDULE_LINES-SCHED_TYPE = ITAB-ETTYP.
T_SCHEDULE_LINES-SCHED_LINE = '0001'.
APPEND T_SCHEDULE_LINES.
T_SCHEDULE_LINESX-ITM_NUMBER = ITAB-POSNR.
T_SCHEDULE_LINES-SCHED_TYPE = ITAB-ETTYP.
T_SCHEDULE_LINESX-SCHED_LINE = '0001'.
T_SCHEDULE_LINESX-UPDATEFLAG = 'U'.
who can tell me the reason.thanks in advance.Hi
First try to execute same bapi in test mode and then check thwe respective SO if this work then you have to commint the changes through program, some more help on this topic
The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
