Multiresource Scheduling within Unconstrained Plan

Hello,
We are 12.0.6 hybrid manufacturing (Discrete and OSFM) using Unconstrained Plan.
When scheduling planned order for Make items the system calculates the Order Date according to the following formula:
Due Date-Fixed Lead Time-(Variable Lead Time*Planned Order Qty)-PreProcessing Lead Time.
Assuming Planned Order:
- for 10 units
- lead time 30 days (5 fixed+25 variable)
- order date calculation = 5+25*10
This is under an assumption that there is one resource performing that job.
We have multiple resource!
According to ASCP Documentation, chapter 6-105, "Multiresource Scheduling" the system has to schedule the planned orders simultaneously. This feature is contolled by 'Round Order Quantities" attribute at item level.
In our tests, I'm using item with this attribute as Checked.
Unfortunately, the system still schedule the planned orders in sequence, one by one. By that, Planned Order Date is moved beyond the items lead time.
What is the way to set the multiple resource working within Unconstrained Plan.
Taking into account multiple resource should shorten Order Date calculation.
I will appreciate any help.
Regards,
Max.

Dear Max
Have you defined the resources , attached routing to the item etc?. Not sure without that definition how will system know that you have x number of multiple resources..
Thnx

  • SAP Multiresource Scheduling MRS 700 - Help

    Dear all,
    I am looking for additional information regarding SAP Multiresource Scheduling.
    The main is to control the detailed planning and capacity of a group of 150 resources, splitted in different sub teams, attached to different roles, with different skills and working potentially on 1 to n projects. We would like to control the detailed capacity and planning at the resources level. Currently all our projects are stored in the NPDI system.
    I would like to know :
    -if it is possible?
    -if it is manageable with a solution not "too heavy" and complex to manage
    -if somebody has a similar experience
    Thanks a lot for your quick help.

    Hi
    With respect to the question I can tell you that the dump is generated because in configuration was not adding mrss positions on the screen Planner inside SPRO options:
    Set up scheduler workplace -> Workplace Profile -> Define User Interface Profiles
    Within this option exists Maintain Container positions in the layout

  • Delivery Schedule within the Firm Zone of a SA not firming

    Hello,
    We have delivery schedules within firm zone (defined in the Additional Data in item detail) of a SA but they are not firmed by MRP run.
    Here is the material master setting and other relevant information:
    MRP Type = PD (firming type = blank)
    Planning Time Fence = 0 (in MRP1 view)
    Not check the flag in OMIN to firm only the transmitted schedule line
    Maintained Firm/Trade-off zone (as mentioned above) and Binding on MRP = '1' in an item of a SA
    The delivery schedule supposedly be firmed based on the firm zone but is keep pushed out instead after MRP run.
    I appreciate very much if you can tell what's causing the problem and how to remedy it.
    Kind Regards,
    Eddie

    Eddie,
    Your batch job is OK however until the delivery schedule with new schedule line proposals has been transmitted they can be changed by MRP as they are not yet firm.
    From my experience the OMIN settings affect the MRP type firming settings (P1, P2, ...) not the SA related firm settings. Here the binding on MRP key is determining what MRP can change or can not change.
    See here the extract out of the help function on the OMIN setting.
    Firm Only Schedule Lines Transmitted to Vendor by Purchasing
    If you set this indicator, the system only firms the schedule lines which have been transmitted to the vendor by the purchasing department.
    Use
    This function is used if you use a planning time fence in the planning run. If you use firming type 1 ("Automatic firming and order proposals are displaced"), the system automatically firms existing schedule lines when they move into the planning time fence.
    Use this indicator if you only want the system to firm schedule lines that have already been checked and passed on to the vendor per message transfer. If, for example, the quantity of a schedule line was changed but the changed quantity has not yet been passed on to the vendor, then the old quantity that has already been passed on to the vendor is firmed as soon as this schedule line moves into the planning time fence.

  • Open Schedules within the firm zone  period

    Hi All
    We have one schedule aggrement for one part in our system and we have different firm zone period  for each suppliers...
    I would like to ask you ; how can we get the list of the fixed schedules (I mean existing schedules within the firm zone period)  based on the Vendor..?
    Thank you

    firm zones can be defined in scheduling agreement..which will reflect in the release

  • How to consider capacity constrain in ASCP unconstrain plan

    Is it possible to feed available capacity (Resource & machine) to ASCP unconstrain plan, so that ASCP plan only for available capacity eventhough all the supply exist to fulfill all the demand. The constrain is, the business is not ready to move to constrain plan.
    If not possible, what is the alternative solution being used across industry using unconstrain plan in ASCP.
    Hoping for your expert advise.
    Thanks,
    Edited by: user604737 on Nov 10, 2010 9:56 AM

    Currently we have constrain in resource and machine capacity, we are using unconstrain plan. It would be gr8, if you provide more clarity how ASCP recommendation consider this fact and display exception for planner, as we are not able to simulate the plan for capacity changes.

  • Supplier Processing Lead Time with ASCP Unconstrained Plan

    Hi All,
    Is it possible for unconstrained plan to consider supplier lead time constrained which we define in ASL?
    I have defined an Unconstrained Plan & the plan is not considering Item Level , ASL Lead times & generating the planned Orders to meet demand due dates by compressing the Lead time.
    Constraint option is not checked in plan options.
    Appreciate your advise on this issue.
    Regards,
    Pranay Saxena

    Hi Pranay,
    An unconstrained plan cannot have ANY constraint.
    So it is not possible to have just the supplier lead time as constrained.
    Alternatively, if that is what is your requirement, you may run a constrained EDD plan with just the material constraints enabled and the "Enforce Purchasing Lead Time" Flag checked.
    If the supplier capacity is NOT set.. it will be treated like infinite..
    This way you will force the engine to respect the lead times from ASL and acheive a near unconstrained plan.
    Another alternative is use constrained plan as explained above and set the profile MSO: Lead Time Control to Do not Violate Minimum processing LT... in this case even the processing LTs for the MAKE items are also respected.
    Hope that helps.

  • Capacity leveling. Aim is to have oders scheduled within 1 day if possible

    Hi All,
    I have a list of 10 prod. orders with same basic/scheduled start/finished date= today
    In capacity leveling, if i select a whole list of these orders and dispatch them, i get all orders with start day= today, finish date= today+ x days.
    I would like to have orders scheduled with start/finish date within 1 day.
    I have available capacity of 4 hours per day. Each order takes around 1,5 hours, thus i can have 2 orders scheduled for today, and so on. This is exactly what i need.
    My kind question to you is how to setup SAP in a such way.
    NB: If i do leveling for each order one by one, then i get what i want: e.g. order is scheduled within 1 day.
    Best Regards,
    Andrey

    Dear Andrey
    Your requirement is, Automatic capacity levelling based on the available capacity.
    In SAP R/3 PP module, only manual capacity levelling is available. Automatic is possible in APO.
    If the requirement dates are same for multiple orders, system will through all the orders in the same date and it will display overloaded. So manually we need to dispatch the overload to the required date.
    Please check the below thread also.

    Dear jsanzone,
    I'm facing the same error even when the server time out is more than the query execution time of the report.By server time out I assume connection time out of WebI report server which I have set to 180 min.But the actual query takes maximum of 5 min.
    We are using BO XIR2+SP2.
    I scheduled a webI report to get saved in Excel format to an Unmanaged disk location upon a File Event.
    We have 3 such reports to be scheduled on the same event.
    Expected frequency of File Event getting fired in a day is twice.Scheduling frequency I have set it as every one hour with the file event.
    This usually should work fine.
    But frequently 1 or 2 of the above 3 instances are getting failed with the following error "Object could not be scheduled with in specified time interval " after being in Running state for few hours(8). Amazingly this is not happening every time. May be once or twice in a week.This works fine after I restart the BO services and the same thing repeats after 3 or 4 days.
    Do I need to increase any server parameters?
    Why is this happening randomly?  

  • Mass Re-start / Re-schedule of Maintenance Plan

    Dear Sirs,
    I have created a BDC which runs in the background at the end of every month.
    This BDC creates a Strategy Maintenance Plan (IP42), the moment a new equipment is installed in the system & it automatically gets scheduled (IP10) as per the installed date.
    After a while we came to know that the BDC was not taking the proper start cycle date & hence the Maintenance Plans which were created were scheduled on the wrong date. We have already solved the problem & have corrected the coding.
    But we need to re-schedule all the earlier wrongly scheduled maintenance plans & delete the previous history.
    When we tried to re-start the cycle manually through IP10 it was allowing us to delete the earlier records as well as to re-start the cycle.
    But as there were thousands of Maintenance plan to be re-started, we planned to create a LSMW or BDC to do the same.
    But while running the LSMW / BDC recording we are not able to delete the earlier records & those are showing as skipped.
    We want the earlier records to be deleted & to re-start the new cycle.
    Can you please tell me something that can be done through any std transaction like IP30 etc.
    Regards,
    YVK.

  • Time scheduling by the Plan order (MD02)

    Hi,
    Does the the scheduling margin time be considered by (start and finish date) for plan order after MD02.
    If yes how can I customize the system
    Is the Time scheduling important for the plan order or only for the production order?
    I've set in the Material master for my Material 4 days by the scheduling margin.
    When I execute MD02. The system doesn't consider the 4 days by (start and finish date)  from the plan order.
    It only consider the Goods receipt processing time.
    Is the Goods receipt processing time relevant only for the plan order and the scheduling margin time for the production order?
    Thanks.

    Dear ,
    Did you miaintain the Scheuling Margin Key in OPPR , Material Master -MRP2 and routing ??
    Generally , to define the order float  we need the scheduling margin key in OPPQ .The scheduling margin key is copied from the material master -MRP2 view . The float before production or float after production and the release period are defined in the scheduling margin key
    For Customizing you need to go in OPPR or in   Shop Floor Control, by choosing Operations --> Scheduling --> Define Scheduling Margin Key . This key gets  transferred when the production order is created from planned order or direct production order  These values can be changed in the production ordr only .
    While running MRP , it will not cosider the SMK  for scheuling purpose  because MRP does not carry our detail scehduling based on Work Centre available capacity  where as it takes the routing operation time and perfomr the scheuling to gerenrate the Planned Order Dates .
    refer  this expert comments : Scheduling Dates for Planned Order and Production orders

  • ERROR : Object could not be scheduled within the specified time interval

    I have the next error Object could not be scheduled within the specified time interval.
    When i schedule a report to be refreshed and the moment come when the report have to be refresh appear the error.
    i check the error in the following path in the CMC
    HOME> FOLDERS > USER FOLDERS > ... > "REPORT FOLDER"  Instance Properties
    Why i get this error?
    Anyone can give me a good solution to solve this error?
    Thanks!!!

    Hi Ed,
    The above error message is appearing due to the reason, when a large number of requests are scheduled to start at the same time, this may exceed the Maximum Number of Simultanius Requests that the deployment can support.
    To resolve this error message, increase the end time on the scheduled instance. To increase the end time, use the following steps:
    1. In the Infoview, browse to the desired report and click 'History'.
    2. Find the desired scheduled instance and click 'Reschedule'.
    3. Under the 'When' section, increase the end time for the scheduled instance.
    Upon completing these steps, the error message no longer appears.
    Hope it will help in resolving the error.

    Now both are displayed in the Gantt chart graphic.  However, it is difficult to see this long string of data as the bars in the Gantt chart may not be long enough to display the data. 
    Therefore we would like to use the "hover over" text which is displayed in the status line at the bottom of the screen.  We have tried using both the Info Text and the Quick Info options within the Bar Chart: Options Profile (OPG0).  Only the first text (the material descirption) is dislayed within either the Quick Info or the Info Text.
    Is it possible to have multiple object values appear in Quick Info or Info Text?  Or is it possible to control which text is displayed in the Quick Info or Info Text?
    Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated, as this is a make-or-break issue for the business to use the planning board.  Thank you!

    I'm also looking for a standard customizing alternative to do the same thing.
    Still, if you're interested, I've already done it successfully with user exit PLAT0001.
    Hope this helps.

  • Safety stock not covered by schedule lines in planning run

    Hi !
    In our organization we are trying to implement scheduling agreements and automatic creation of delivery schedule lines through MRP.

  • Dedicated scheduling of a planned order having a fixed activity

    Hi Gurus,
    We're using PP/DS Optimizer with Total Delay Costs objective function, following a Backwards Scheduling strategy in order to Reduce Premature Scheduling. Order activities are then scheduled as close as possible from the requirement dates. However we would wish to apply a forward scheduling strategy to the orders having a fixed activity, but starting from the existing order planned start date instead from the system date, i.e:
    Requirement X due on 18.01.2012
    Output firmed planned order Y with 3 activities (A1, A2, A3), A2 beeing fixed
    Optimization result with a Backward scheduling strategy:
    A1 09.11.2011
    A2 18.11.2011
    A3 17.01.2012
    Optimization result when Backward scheduling setting is unchecked
    A1 NOW
    A2 18.11.2011
    A3 17.01.2012
    The business requirement we d'like to achieve
    A1 09.11.2011
    A2 18.11.2011
    A3 19.12.2011
    It is not foreseen to fix A1 to bypass the problem, above example is only a basic example whereas there're multiple activities in between A1 & A2 in our real material PDS. Is there any way (even with another optimization run, or using in combination a Production Planning Run...) to achieve such a scheduling strategy?
    BR,
    Pascal.

    For example: if Period[month] 06 is veiwed of a Workcenter load, a line[load appears], whose earliest date is in 7th month[01.07.2014].
