Hi,
If you running MRP with Parallel processing, you should define Parallel Processing in trx OMIQ. ie. No of sessions should be defined.
Otherwise you should uncheck the field Parallel processing in MD01.

How to restrict the Material (MRP relevant )from manual creation of Pur Req

Hi,
If we have a material "ABC" which has MRP type as "PD" (MRP relevant) in Material Master.
If we don't want to give user the option of creating manual Purchase requisition for Materail "ABC", Whether this is possible in Std SAP ? If yes, then How?
Thanks in advance,
Pravin

Hi,
In standard there is no option to restrict at material level.
But using BADI ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST method PROCESS_ITEM you
meet your requirement easily.

Cross Plant Planning for External procured Material in MRP with their stock

Dear Gurus,
I have one requirement my client want Cross plant planning in MRP. this plants are only site plants no Manufacturing. All materials in these plants are Externally Procure Materials(F). Now they want cross plant planning for Externally Procure Materials or cross plant planning for Externally Procure Materials with consider all plant stock details while planning.
can you tell me procedure for this,
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Devraj

Hi,
In R/3 you cannot consider all plants in planning, you have to use SAP APO to achieve your goal (if your goal is to optimize the procurement in your plants). When you execute MRP run in R/3 it will only consider the details of one single plant.
I mean if you have several plants used for external procurement, and you want to make an optimal decision considering all the stocks and open transactional data, requirements in those plants, it is not possible in R/3 as per my knowledge - multi site/plant planning won't give you such optimal solutiion.

MRP Relevance for Storage Location

All SAP Gurus,
In SPRO where we need to maintain MRP Relevance for Storage Location?
Regards,

Dear,
Check transaction OMIR - Storage location - MRP relevance.
In detail:
To control whether a particular storage location will be included or excluded from the MRP run. (MD02/MD41).
To exclude it from MRP run follow the steps:-
OMIR - Define storage location MRP per plant
Put the MRP ind. as.         1 - storage location stock excluded for MRP
To include it from MRP run:-
OMIR - Define storage location MRP per plant
Put the MRP ind. as.      space - storage location stock also planned at plant level and save it
Next go to transaction MM01 - tick only view MRP 2
Key in Plant and Storage Location
Look at the Storage Location MRP section
change the SLoc MRP indicator to space and save it
MMD1 - Create MRP Profile - MRP profile is a useful entry aid and makes it easier to manage MRP data.
You define which fields are filled with values when MRP data is entered in the material master record, which of these values can be overwritten and which not.   You use the information stored in a profile is standard information that is needed again and again in similar constellations when material master records are maintained.

Syed Hussain.

Dependent requirements for Top level materials planned in MRP

Hey Gurus,
A top level material 20350 has a component 30397 and both of these materials are planned in APO. We have another top level material 30399 (but this material is planned in MRP) and the component 30397 (is planned in APO) will the dependent requirements from material 30399 be populated in APO for material 30397?
Sincerely,
Kris

Kris
As Datta has mentioned the dependent demand will not reflect for the component material in APO. We had the same scenario as yours and this is what we did
We modified the Planned order integration model filter criteria by adding custom logic in the BAdI CIF_INT_MODEL. The logic was to query the BOM tables in R/3 and find out all parents that have SNP relevant materials as components and include these parents in the list of materials for which planned orders are to be CIF'ed from R/3 . The BAdI will be invoked when you run the IM generation .
You also have to CIF the BOM to APO . Once the PDS and planned orders are available in APO , the dependent demand will be created automatically. ( If you do not want to modify the BAdI then you can write a query and identify the parents and add them to the integration model manually)
Thanks

ASN POACK needs to be MRP relevant and InboundDelivery auto set to COMPLETE

Dear Experts,
We have the following requirement not sure how to implement this.
Need ASN's and POACK to be MRP relevant for accurate planning.Business
needs to receive against PO,not the inbound delivery for efficiency
purposes.
Set confirmation control key to have MRP relevant and GR relevant but
without invoking the use of an inbound delivery.
When inbound delivery is created from inbound ASN,need ability to
automatically set Inbound delivery to COMPLETE.This supports delivery &
shipping requirement to receive using PO,not Inbound Delivery, and NOT
have inventory supply duplicated,e.g. by Inbound Delivery created by
ASN, and again by any Inbound Delivery that may be created as part of
the PO receipt process.
Secure creation/change POACK and ASN now MRP relevant documents to
avoid overpass the PO line item QTY+tolerance,by providing'error'
message and blocking the saving of the document if happens.
Does it exist an user exit to implement this.
Look forward to get your reply.
Thank you and regards

Worked with DBA and though source tables were not huge, we extended manually and proccess completed once we re-ran.
Thanks all.

Material valuation with respect planned price 1 in material master

Dear All,
     The costing variant PPC1 has been used for released cost estimate. In my scenario I want to create one more variant say ZPC1 where to calculate the value of the material from the planned price 1. In this case
1.     What should be the validity date mentioned in the material master for valuation
2.     The variant has been configured as
a.     Costing Type 12 Mod Std cost Est
i.     Price Update No Update
ii.     Save Parameter With Start of Period
iii.     Misc Cost Sheet
b.     Valuation Variant 001 Planned Valuation
i.     Material Valuation - Planned Price
ii.     Standard Price
c.     Date control
i.     From Date : Start of Current Posting Period
ii.     To Date : End of Current Posting Period
iii.     Qty Struc Date : Current Date
iv.     Val Date : Current Date
d.     Qty Structure Control (As PPC1)
3.     When I run the standard cost estimate with variant ZPC1 the system calculates the standard price of the material even when the price is mentioned in the planned price1.
How the variant should be created to capture the planned price for calculation when using the variant ZPC1.
Kindly help me in this regards
Regards
Vasantha

HI,
The requirement is to execute the cost estimate quaterly for planned price 1.
So we are planning to create separate costing variant to pick the planned price 1 of RM.
Clinet has the Excel file with the details of RM and Price combination but the prices are not available in SAP.
We are looking for the Mass transaction to upload the prices in Planned price 1.
Kindly help.

Run Sales order wise MRP - AFS material

Dear Experts,
Here my client asking to run the MRP for sales order wise. recently we did the AFS implementation for one of our client. there is an common T-code for MRP run, for AFS material is /AFS/MD02 . they are using material based BOM ( Bill of material). so there might be common material for different sales order i.e if am using material XXXX for Sales order 500 mean , same material will present in Sales order 510 too. current system
( T-code /AFS/MD02) will run MRP of material XXXX Both 500,510 sales order but my requirement is i need to restrict to single sales order.
any one guide me to resolve my requirements.
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Thangam.P

Dear Venkat,
You are right MD50 does not support AFS material.
Please Try running : /AFS/MD02.

Hope it will help you.

MRP relevance of special stocks

Hi Experts,
I am working with project systems using Q stock. When I move Q stock into a none MRP relevant storage location the stock is still used and netted in the MRP calculation. The storage location is set to none relevant in OMIR, and also in the materials MRP4, I noticed the same behavior with E stock. Is it simply that the special stock indicator is considered prior to the storage location, or is it something I can control. The reason I don't want to drop the stocks into unrestricted is because we use generic materials in project stock and for E stock we are heavy VC users and the materials mean nothing once their link to the project/sales order is lost. I want to be able to keep the link to the project/sales order while quality decisions made but to start the replanning process, specifically with lower level requirements
Regards,
Jez

Hello Jez
This is the standard behavior.
Both project stock and storage location planned separately or excluded from MRP are special stock segments and a planning element can only belong to one specific special stock segment.
Therefore, it is not possible to have a storage location planned separately on a project stock.
The workaround here is to use an MRP area. Generally, individual stocks are only possible on the plant MRP area, however, you can use the business function OPS_PS_CI_1 in the project system to achieve a work breakdown structure (WBS) account assignment on MRP area level.
You can find more information on the following FAQ note:

Planned delivery time in material master

Is planned delivery time in material master considering holidays ? I mean when I say 7 days, is it one week and 2 days or only one week ?

Dear Balaji,
If you push F1 when your mouse is set on that field you will see that help says that PDT is defined as calendar days. However, you can carry out some changes:
http://www.sap-img.com/materials/planned-delivery-time-as-workdays.htm
About meaning of PDT:
http://www.sap-img.com/production/calculation-to-determine-the-delivery-date-and-release-date.htm
In addition to that link, you can use safety time as well (with this setting you can pull back in time the requested availabilty date during MRP run). You can also use PDT in info records if you have several source of supple for one material.

How to make ECC subcon delivery NOT MRP relevant?

Experts, need help to make the ECC subcontracting delivery (LB) that moves components from plant to vendor to be MRP irrelevant so it doesn't go to APO.
Any idea?

Aparna
Thanks for your response. I thought about this solution, but before I try it I want to use the standard way if possible.
If you read the following SAP help document, it says Subcon components delivery doesn't come to APO.
That's why I want to find out why it's coming to APO and how to stop it in standard way.
(http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm70/helpdata/en/62/5759394ba2cd4ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm, choose subcontracting with source location in SNP)
4.      Sending the subcontracting components to the vendor
○       If you work with MRP areas for subcontractors in the SAP R/3 system, the following processes take place in the latter system: a delivery is created for the stock transfer reservation, picking takes place for this delivery, and a goods issue is posted. The subcontracting components are transferred from plant stock to the stock of material provided to the vendor (subcontracting stock/stock with subcontractor). Since the delivery is not MRP-relevant, it does not appear in the SAP SCM system.
○     If you do not work with MRP areas for subcontractors in the SAP R/3 system, the subcontracting components are transferred directly from u201Dplant stocku201D to u201Dstock of material provided to vendoru201D.
In each case, u201Dstock of material provided to vendoru201D shows a plus and u201Dplant stocku201D is reduced.

No sales orders with MRP-relevant requirements were found MD04

Hello MM Enthusiast,
We are in process of EHP upgradation and I need to replicate the following error message,
No sales orders with MRP-relevant requirements were found
Error message MF 336
Please let me know how to get the above message in S environment.
I have gone through the already discussed thread (http://scn.sap.com/thread/3460655) but couldn't able to get the message MF 336.
Based on your response I can replicate and apply the causing / resolving note given by SAP AG.
Looking forward to your valuable input to proceed further on this issue
Cheers,
Kumar S

This issue was solved using a different availability checking rule in MRP3 of the material master.
the old checking rule had a requirements summary, while the new was for individual requirements, this setting is defined in OVZ2 customizing transaction.
Hence you need to enter a checking rule in your material master which has a A as sales requirement in OVZ2.
then create 2 or more new sales orders for this item for the same delivery date.
After that you should get the error in MD04

Are Procurement Contracts MRP relevant ???

Hi All,
This may seem like a very novice question but I could not find any detail pertaining to this on the net.
1. Are Procurement Contracts MRP relevant ? If so what are the settings required.
2. Whats the use of creating a procurement contract with reference to a Purchase Requisition ??
Regards,
Imran

Hi
I hope you are referring to contract & not scheduling agreement.
If you have contract assigned in source list with fixed source checked & MRP indicator as MRP relevant, MRP would generate the PR with contract as source of supply.
Then you should have job running to conver the PR to PO for transaction ME59N with variant having "Contract" checkbox ticked.
This would ensure that PO is released against contract for the generated PR.
I hope this helps.
Thanx
Prasad

PR( MRP relevant) deletion not possible

Hello all,
We have PR(MRP relevant) with AACategory as "Q". when i want to delete the line item through ME52N, the delete option is appearing greyd out, hence cannot delete the PR line item. For this PR, delivery date is prior to the release date.Pls guide me in the same.
Regards
Abhijit

Hi
It was said in the SAP documentation that the purchase requisition is 'firm' in views of MRP running if at least one of the criteria was satisfied -
1) The 'Fixed' indicator of the PR line item was manually flagged;
2) The PR Line Item has had the follow-on documents (such as Request for Quotation (RFQ) or Purchase Order);
3) The PR is subject to Release Strategy for which The 'Fixed for MRP' indicator of the 'Block' and/or 'Released' Release Indicator is ticked.
