PIR issue

Hi all,
We have the header material as type KMAT. For this material demand is coming through sales order. When we run MRP planned order is generated for lower level i.e semi finished. When we convert it to production
order and complete the prod. order process it is still showing in MD62 as Independent requirement. When we are changing the requirement date to order start date of KAMT, it is not showing in MD62/MD63.
We have two operation for header material(KMAT),both the operation has different start date.
Strategy for header material is 25 and for semifinished it is 70.
Kindly help me to solve this issue.
Best Regards,
suman

Hi,
Strategy 25 is purely MTO, there are no setting for PIR.
If u create PIR by assigning 25 strategy in MD61,
I think you have created customer order by entering KEK (MD81) or MD61.
You need to delete the requirement in MD62.
If you are using planning strategy 25then it is a make to order scenario for which PIR's created in MD61 will not work and the Requirement type for strategy 25 is "KEK".
Hope clear to you.

SCE 8080 CIR/PIR issue

Hi I create a package in SCABB with CIR=0, PIR=3500 kbps to have bandwith control over a range of IP address in a csv file directly applied on SCE. but when i review SCA reporter Bandwith service per package, I see 4000Kbps and more in this package. Why the PIR is not working??
Example:
csv file:
client1, 1.1.1.0/24, 5
Package in SCABB:
index: 5
CIR = 0
PIR = 3500

Hello Geovanny,
Is this production environment or lab?
What kind of traffic passing through the SCE?
(Num of flows, src IPs, TCP/UDP, applications, etc.)
One possible explanation for this is that since the traffic control
starts only after the classification is completed, those pre-classified
traffic is not controlled. This is usually not a problem but some P2P
protocols may require many packets to be inspected to classify and
if there is a heavy P2P user, the traffic for the user may exceed the PIR
slightly.
I think you can check which protocol is exceeding the PIR by looking
at the report which you realized the issue.
Thanks,
Tomo

PIR's and batch management issue, can this be solved in APO ?

Hi All,
I've an issue. I honestly dont know where I can get a solution for that and thats why i will post it in mm and also pp forum.
Here is my issue.
All materials are batch managed. Each and every customer can get only certain batches and not all batches meet the requirement of a customer. Lets say I have 3 plants (plant 1, plant 2 and plant 3) and I have 3 customers ( cust1, cust2 and cust3). Lets say I get a demand for material and I create PIR's in plant 1. when I run MRP, it will generate planned orders. I convert that into purchase req and then into STO for plant 2. when plant 2 doesn't have the raw material to process into semi finished, I will create and sto from plant 2 to plant 3 to get the raw material. The reason we create sto to plant 2 initially is because it has to process something before it sends it to plant 1. so the link is from customer 1 --> plant 1 (finished goods) -- > plant 2 (semi finished) --> plant 3 (raw material).
Right from raw material it is specific to a customer. i.e. not all raw material batches from plant 3 will be accepted by customer 1.
so when the demand flows from customer 1 to plant 2, is there anywhere that I can keep track of for which customer that order is going and select raw materials based on the end customer ?
Can this be solved in APO ?

Hi sapcrs,
Your requirement is meet the solution of configuration of the following scenario.
customer 1 --> plant 1 (finished goods) -- > plant 2 (semi finished) --> plant 3 (raw material).
The conditions are
a) Raw material is batch managed
b) Keep track of order flow
Solution:-
1) Maintain raw material as batch managed in R/3. Suitably class and characterisitics to be developed to send the information to APO as that the RM is batch managed.
2) The Bom of semi-fnished item at plant-2 to be maintained with raw material. The source of supply has to be linked with plant-3. The RM will be externally procured from plant-3 for plant-2 which is batch specific. The Bom item will be send to APO as PPM which contain all bom and routing details.
3) Now once RM is ready at Plant-3, it will be sourced to plant-2 and at plant-2, semi-fnished item will be made with the production orders triggered from bom & routing data at plant-2
4) Now semi-finished item is ready at plant-2. Once it is ready, it has to be sent to plant-1 for mfg FG. This can be achieved by creating lane between plant-1 and plant-2.
5) Through lane, semifinished item reaches plant-1 which is made at plant-2 which contains RM made at plant-3 which is batch specific.
6) Using semifinished item, Finished product can be made at plant-1
7) Now your final requirement is to track all order flow changes. This can be achieved by mechanism in APO called pegging. Using pegging, the order flow can be tracked right from FG to RM.

Currency Issue in Shopping cart & PIR

I am facing the following issue. Please let me know if there is a solution to this behavior.
User Employee currency in the PPOMA is USD.
User creates a shopping cart for a material ID for which there are 2 sources of supply. PIR details is in the attachment. PIR has CAD as
currency.
In the shopping cart, I do not see currencies at all for the PIRs . When I assign a supplier, in this case I expect 12.71 MXN to convert to USD at the line item level based on the exchange rate. This is not happening and the system is not converting the value based on the currency exchange rate. Exchange rates are maintained in the system.
Regards
Sathya

Hi Sathya,
Please check the following:
1.     Is your approval process defined at the header level or item level. Means approval is triggered based on the total value of SC.
2.     What is the company code currency - USD or ??
3.     If USD then the SC will take USD itself.
4.     When you create and order --> in the PO the Vendor currencies will be displayed with converted value.
5.     Also check when you click on assign vendor the 12.71 MXN should be your line item currency instead of 12.71 USD and total value should be converted to whatever company code currency.
6.     Please check in SRM/ERP - TCURR table whether the correct Exchange rate type for example M is maintained in both the systems. Please also create a manual PO in backend system to check whether it is working correctly in the backend.
7. Please check the following posts, may be helpful:-

PIR consumption issue

We have been having intermittent problems with our R/3 implementation (4.7C)for a long time. PIRs get consumed without explanation (i.e. no sales orders coming it to consume the forecast, which is expressed as PIRs). We suspect it might have something to do with our delivery process, but have been unable to pinpoint it, or re-create it for showing SAP, or anyone else. Has anybody out there experienced something similar? We're at the end of our rope!

I am sorry for the very late reply Senthil.
Yes PIR is basically a requirement that is created manually ( t code :MD64) on the manufacturing plant. This enables the manufacturing plant to produce materials to stock ahead of actual customer requiremnts( the sale order).
The advantage of consumption mode is that it prevents dual planning. To better explain if the sale order is created when actual customer order is received it will first consume the PIR requirement as stocks have been produced ahead of time
(made to stock strategy) against the PIR. If the sale order qty is over & above the PIR reqt then only system will plan for additional qty to meet the remaining sale order qty.
For your case
Lets assume unconsumed PIR for last month was 10. This month PIR is 20.
now sale order comes this month for 10. It will consume the PIR of this month & not consume PIR of last month as your backward consumption is only 5 days. Then your earlier month PIR remains unconsumed & will cause excess planning.
Lets assume another sale order comes for 20. System will consume the remaining PIR (of this month) =10 & replan for additional 10 to meet actual Sale order.
So my advise for consumption periods is backward =30, forward = 30 or 60 days if you create PIR monthly. If your PIR is for weekly or daily buckets then consumption periods as per your selection should work well.
Lastly enusure that unconsumed PIR reorganisation run is carried out to avoid excess planning( tocde: MD74)
Hope this helps you. If you have further doubts please send me an email on [email protected]

PIR & capacity Overload Issue

Dear All,
I entered PIR for materiel-A 60,000 qunat. using t code MD61.
After MRP run i view the capacity over load using CM05 .
In CM05 i found capacity overload for my work center .All requirement assign into the first week and overload becomes 999%.In same work center for sub sequent week where capacity is available that capacity not utilized .So how can i flow my requirement to the next week and reduce my capacity over load.

Dear,
This not possible in R/3 as MRP only look for material availability. So it can be possible through APO which will do the finite scheduling and capacity planning.
Best way according to your capacity put the demend in MD61 suppose week 1 -200 wk 2 100 like wise that.
In R/3 you need to do the Capacity leveliing where finite scheduling take place.
If there is any overload you need to level it.
Options
1.You can dispatch the operation to another work center.
2.You can do splitting so that the same operation is carried out by many people
3. You can shift the dates
4. You can do external processing.
5.You can reduce the reqmts qty.
Capacity leveling is only a tool. If you have overload SAP cannot help unless you have the resources to tackle it.
Please refer this link,

Issue w.r.to sales order/PIR

Hi friends,
i need an help once again.i have created demand plan(PIR)_ for the month of december.
few sales orders were created in the month of November. at that time the confirmed quantity in the sales order was zero.
Now for the PIR we have ruuned MRP and we have generated planned orders.And we have produced against the sales order(which was created in november).now if we check in MMBE the system is showing .stock against the sales order.But in the sales order confirmed quantity is still zero and we are not able to do the delivery for this order number eventhough stock exists.
Please let me know the solution.
Planning startegy is 56.
Thanks in Advance.

Dayanan,
Always give the relevant details when you post such a question. In your case, I assume we are still talking about the same setup you and I discussed recently in a different post.
As I recall, you are using MRP planning strategy 56. Please confirm. In this strategy, stock is usually made irrelevant for ATP. You will recall that I told you that Strategy 56 Sales order confirmations are based solely upon the un-consumed PIRs. Running MRP alone will not confirm sales orders! You must do this yourself since you have added the needed PIRs after the SO was originally entered. VA02 > select item > then Edit > Check availability. You should now get a proposal and once you accept and save, your order will be confirmed.
Once you have confirmation, you then attempt to create a delivery. We have not spoken about how your ATP is configured for Delivery creation, but I am hoping it is one that includes stock, which is the most common way to configure ATP for Deliveries under strategy 56. Try to deliver the order once it is confirmed; let me know if you have problems.

Issue : PIR Internal Requirement Plan number generation

Hi,
I am facing Problem on demand release as a PIR with requirement plan number .
Requirement Plan number internally generating for each line items one plan number.
Requirement type : VSF
Version : 05
Example: I want 10 line items in planning table should create internally only one requirement plan number .
If you know solution help me out.
Regards,

Hi,
Requirement Plan number internally generating I think it is not possible, as it is to create and to identify one or more planned independent requirements.
Only active version of PIR will be considered

MD61-PIR Entry Issue

Dear Friends,
I want enter the PIR for a Material on the same date for tw Different Production Versions in MD61 using requirement type LSF.
But in Schedule lines when I try to enter plan for two different Prod. Version on same date, it is deleting one and creating Demand for only one version in a day. and giving the Message 6P336.
But in different date for different version, it is accepting. what setting I need to do to? to meet my following requirement?
Same material is produced in the same day with two differnt versions and demand should be entered in MD61 for two different versions.
I hope u guys will help in this.
Sree

Sree,
This is a standard feature in SAP, you cannot have PIR created for multiple production versions for a period. Even if you use multiple Active PIR version for the material to create this scenario, still after MRP run SAP would create planned orders for the full quantity for the first production version.
Workaround possible: Use the Quota Arrangements option to split the demand for a day into multiple version.
1. Assign the quota usage in the material master MRP2 or Purchasing view.
2. Maintain Quota master using MEQ1.
Now based on the quota master maintained during MRP run system would split and create the planned order accordingly.

Prasobh

Problem with gross requirement planning pir is not getting reduced

Dear Gurus
I am trying to use strategy 11 for a particular finished product.(having bom and routing)
In the material master I have set mrp type pd lot size ex .strategy group 11, mixed mrp 2,item category group norm, availabilty checking group 02 .
Then I made manually pir for that material in md61 with BSF requirement type .
Then ran the mrp for that material in md02.
Planned orders came .(In md04 screen that gross requirement line text also came as usual )Converted them to prodn order and then did the gr in mb31 with 101 mvt type. After doing the gr the pir should get reduced in md04 screen which is not happening . Where I am going wrong
Regards
Sandip Sarkar

Dear Sandip Sarkar,
                                  It usually happens run MRP and ckeck.
Strategy 11 in summary :-
1. Sales Order creation - no impact.
2. Goods Receipt - minus the quantity for the oldest planned independent in demand management.
   For e.g. if PIR is 100 and delivery 90, PIR becomes 10 (withdrawal 90).
3. Delivery - no impact as delivery is issue from sales order.
This strategy is particularly useful if you need to produce, regardless of whether you have stock or not. For instance, steel or cement producers might want to use this strategy because they cannot shut down production; a blast furnace or a cement factory must continue to produce, even if this means having to produce to stock.
You need to maintain the following master data for the finished product:
Maintain strategy group 11 on the MRP screen.
Set the Mixed MRP indicator to 2 on the MRP screen.
Maintain the item category group (for example, NORM) on the Sales Organization screen.
Maintain the Availability check field so that you perform an availability check without the replenishment lead time (checking group 02 in the standard system).
Strategy                                                        10

Hi my name is Silvana Pires,I purchased an I Phone 4 S Model A 1387 EMC 2430 SCC.ID DCG E
2430 AIC.579 C-E 243 A in California one year ago,Unfortunately its Not working well the screen is getting black,and the phone is in good shape I can prove it,the Apple support in Brazil doenst work like in USA.
I look forward to your reply and a resolution of this problem.
Thank you very much!!!

You are welcome. I'm glad you got it back up.
(1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
(2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
(3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
(4) Add some SARE rules:
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
70sareadult.cf
70saregenlsubj0.cf
70sareheader0.cf
70sarehtml0.cf
70sareobfu0.cf
70sareoem.cf
70sarespoof.cf
70sarestocks.cf
70sareunsub.cf
72sare_redirectpost
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
backhair.cf
bogus-virus-warnings.cf
chickenpox.cf
weeds.cf
Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
Then stop and restart mail services.
There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck!

Error in SE16n - PIR exsist only in EINE table & does not exist in EINA tab

Hello All,
This is regarding error in Pucrahsing Info Record in which PIR only exist in EINE table & not in EINA table. This is not normal behavior of SAP standard.
In this issue we are able to see P. Info Record (5300083719) details in EINE table only.
But the same PIR does not exist in EINA table .
Also we can not see this in display mode(ME13) & system does not allow us to change PIR. System gives the error message that PIR does not exist.
This is something strange. Can you pls. reply on this.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
The PIR No is availabe in EINE (pur org data) and the same PIR is not availabe in EINA table( General data ).
This is Program error. bcz some times system will not get the correct PIR no while creating the PO, in that time system will create new PIR , that no is from buffer table..
And you cannot track that buffer table....... If you want to check the on that day,, how many PO's were created for that same combination of material and vendor.

How can I send multiple subcon PPMs to APO since one PV must be in the PIR?

We often have two or three production versions for a single subcontracting material. For example, PV 01-1 from now until June, then PV 02-1 from June until November. To create the PPM in APO via CFM1/CFM2 we must have one PV in the subcontracing PIR. This means we can only send the currently active PV 01-1 to APO and we can not plan with 02-1 in the future! I know I can manually create this in APO or I can temporarily change the PIR, send the PPM, and then change the PIR back but I would like an automatic process for this.
Why can't I leave the PV blank in the PIR and that would mean to send ALL PPMs? This is essentially how R/3 planning works... if you leave the PV blank in the PIR it will automatically choose the PV with the correct date ranges.
I'm sure many people have had this issue but SAP offers no solution. Does anyone know of a user exit or have any ideas on how to resolve this?
Thanks,
Eric Strehlow

Hi Vinodkumar,
You have desribed the way that I run my process. However, for subcontracting we must also put the PV into the PIR or the PPM creation will have no link from PV to Vendor and therefore it will not create a PPM.
In R/3 planning, we leave the PV blank in the PIR so the system will automatically choose the correct PV based on the validity dates. I would like to leave the PV blank in the PIR and have APO create PPMs for all Vendors that this material is extended to for each PV. But as far as I know this is not possible. Then APO planning can choose the correct PPM based on validity dates.
Thanks,
Eric

While creating po, the vendor material no should updated in PIR.

hi all,
i am facing one issue
the issue is, while creating po, we can search the material no according to vendor material no, but when we change the vendor material no in po item details in material tab and save the PO, that is updated in the PIR, if we tick the box(info update), that means the new no is update in PIR,
but suppose i entered the wrong no, so i want to edit that field again. but the new assigned no is not updating the PIR though i have checked the check box(info update)
that means, PIR is updating once but not second time. what is the possible solution.
regards,
susanta
Edited by: susanta bindhani on Jun 26, 2008 8:27 AM

hi pankaj,
read the issue perfectly,
supoose i have created PO, i have entered in the field of vendor material no-123, ok. and i tick the box(update PIR).
then i save the Po, i saw the change in PIR- 123
after i gone to change mode- me22n, thr, i again change the vendor material no to 456, ok, and i save the PO, then i saw it in PIR,
but no change. the field no is showing -123.
my question is why PIR is not updating second time only once.
pls give me some suggesion, my client need it urgantly.
