Planning at subassembly level in SAP B1

Dear experts,
Can you please advise if SAP Business one would support the MRP model in which the forecast is planned at a sub assembly level.
The Finished good level has multiple variants based on Customer requirements. There are set of Raw parts which are the same for each variant. I would like to build a Phantom level subassembly in the BOM of each FG and Forecast at this Level which is same for every product. At the same time I want the S/O for the FG to consume the forecast subassembly as well as forecast for the top level if it is built as free for sale.
So that the FG BOM is consisting of set of common parts (subassembly phantom) and set of variable parts.
I load the forecast for subassembly phantom and trigger procurement of the parts. once I receive S/O for the Finished product, I buy the variables and consume the Forecast of the subassembly to build my SKU.
I am now using SAP business one v 8.82. I tried it, but MRP doesnt see connection between subassy phantom and FG demand. It considers them as separate items and thus duplicating the requirements. And I cannot find any setups for planning strategy to set the connection between this subassembly and the FG.
Hope I am clear in my question.
Thanks.
Ivan.

Hi,
Thnx for your answer, but the question was a bit different.
I know how to set up the phantom and i have done it. But I need a setup were I will be loading forecast at the phantom level and then when creating FG demand by either S/O or forecast the system would consume the forecast of this Phantom based on the BOM requirement of the Finished good. This I cannot setup in SAP B1 and need help with. this is similar to make to order strategies with planning material in SAP R3.
Can anybody advise please?
thnx.

SAP PP-Planning at Assembly level(70)u201D & u201C Planning at Assembly level witho

Hello SAP-Guruu2019s
Pls explain the Strategy u201C Planning at Assembly level(70)u201D & u201C Planning at Assembly level without final Assembly (74)u201D and pls give any examples if possible.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Planning at Assembly Level (70)
Purpose
This planning strategy is particularly useful for manufacturers of products with variants if a more
reliable forecast can be produced for certain assemblies than for the multitude of product
variants.
Prerequisites
You must maintain the master data of the assembly as follows:
Strategy group 70 on the MRP screen.
Set the indicator for assembly planning, the Mixed MRP indicator, to 1 on the MRP
screen.
Consumption parameters (Consumption mode, Bwd consumption, Fwd consumption on
the MRP screen) to allow for consumption of planned independent requirements.
If you are using this strategy in a make-to-stock environment, you also must set the
Individual/coll. indicator to 2 on the MRP screen.
Reduction
Consumption
This strategy is very similar to Planning with Final Assembly (40) However, planned
independent requirements are consumed by production order requirements (or schedule lines in
repetitive manufacturing) and not to requirements of sales orders.
1. Stock for the assembly usually exists.
2. Planned independent requirements are entered at assembly level. Procurement (planned
by means of the planned independent requirements) is therefore triggered before the
production order stage (or schedule line in repetitive manufacturing).
3. The planned orders for the assembly/components are convertible.
4. Procurement smoothing according to order demand is possible. In this strategy,
however, the ability to react flexibly to customer requirements is more important.
5. An accurate availability check is performed according to ATP logic during production
order processing.
6. Requirements from production orders (or schedule lines) are passed on to production
and can lead to changes to procurement after the sales order stage, if the order
quantities exceed the planned independent requirement quantities. However the order
quantities cannot be confirmed if there is insufficient coverage of components. The
system automatically adjusts the master plan. For more information see Coping with
Insufficient Coverage of Components .
7. The planned independent requirements are consumed during the production stage. This
means that you can compare the planned independent requirements situation with the
actual order requirements.
Unconsumed planned independent requirement quantities increase the warehouse stock of the
component, and cause procurement to be decreased or not to take place at all in the next period.
This procedure is called "netting."
Sample Scenario: Strategy 70
Process Flow
This example is based on a production plan in which 100 pieces are planned for <reqdat1>,
<reqdat2>, and <reqdat1>.
Stage 1: Demand Management
1.In this scenario, planned independent requirements are created as follows for the
production plan.
Period indicator Reqmts date Planned qty Value
T (= day) <reqdat1> 100 10,000.00
T (= day) <reqdat2> 100 10,000.00
T (= day) <reqdat3> 100 10,000.00
The system will find requirements type VSFB because the strategy group has been set
to 70.
2. The requirements are passed on to MRP. The stock/requirements list (Logistics
Production   MRP   Evaluations   Stock/reqmts list) displays the following
information:
Date MRP element MRP element data Received/
required
quantity
Available quantity
<today> Stock 0
<reqdat1> IndReq VSFB 100 - 100 -
<reqdat2> IndReq VSFB 100 - 200 -
<reqdat3> IndReq VSFB 100 - 300 -
Stage 2: Procurement Before Use in Production
1. A procurement requisition is created in the MRP run (Logistics   Production   MRP
Total planning). The stock/requirements list displays the following information:
Date MRP element MRP element data Received/
required
quantity
Available quantity
<today> Stock 0
<reqdat1> PlOrd. 123/STCK 100 100
<reqdat1> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
<reqdat2> PlOrd. 124/STCK 100 100
<reqdat2> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
<reqdat3> PlOrd. 125/STCK 100 100
<reqdat3> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
This procurement requisition is the starting point for production or external procurement.
You have a variety of options for handling the procurement process in the R/3 System.
One possibility would be to convert the planned order into a production order, release of
the production order and a goods receipt of the yield quantity. It is also possible,
however, to use returns or other goods movements for make-to-stock production.
2. After goods receipt for the order, the stock/requirements list displays the following
information:
Date MRP element MRP element data Received/
required
quantity
Available quantity
<today> Stock 200
<reqdat1> IndReq VSFB 100 - 100
<reqdat2> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
<reqdat3> PlOrd. 125/SDeb 100 100
<reqdat3> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
Stage 3: Production Order and Allocation
A production order that uses the planned component is created (Logistics   Production
Production control   Order   Create).
An availability check is performed in the order (Component   Availability   Check availability).
In this example, it is assumed that production is 50 pieces of the material and the
material has an in-house production time of zero.
A popup appears containing the following information:
Requirements date <today>
Requirements quantity 50
Availability check (checking group) 02
ATP quantity 200
Confirmation date <today>
Confirmation quantity 50
This availability check is always performed according to ATP logic. See Availability Check [Page
157].
The production order quantity, which is not visible in the production order, is allocated to the
component quantity. You can, however, control the allocation in the stock/requirements list or in
the total requirements list. The total requirements list displays the following information:
Requirements type Date Allocated quantity Total quantity
VSFB 300
<reqdat1> 100
RESE <reqdat1> 50
<today> 50
<reqdat2> 100
<reqdat3> 100
After creation of the production order, the stock/requirements list displays the following
information:
Date MRP element MRP element data Received/
required
quantity
Available quantity
<today> Stock 200
<today> OrdRes SZ-10 50 - 150
<reqdat1> IndReq VSFB 50 - 100
<reqdat2> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
<reqdat3> PlOrd. 125/STCK 100 100
<reqdat3> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
Any parent material that consists of this component is automatically allocated to this plan. In
practice, there are several header materials (like SZ-10 in this example) that allocate this
material.
Stage 4: Procurement After Production
This does not apply to this strategy.
Stage 5: Goods Issue for Production Order
After goods issue for the production order (Logistics   Materials management   Inventory
management   Goods movement   Goods issue), the stock/requirements list displays the
following information:
Date MRP element MRP element data Received/
required
quantity
Available quantity
<today> Stock 150
< reqdat1> IndReq VSFB 50 - 100
<reqdat2> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
<reqdat3> PlOrd. 125/STCK 100 100
<reqdat3> IndReq VSFB 100 - 0
Hope this helps.

Transferring Open Items, Instalment Plans and Dunning Level

Hi all,
We are implementing SAP IS-U for a water suplly company and we have a process in which an Installation is transferred from a Business Partner to another. For this we are using the Move-in / Move-Out functionality (trx EC60).
So far, so good. The problem is that we also should transfer also the Open Items, Instalment Plans and Dunning level to the new Business Partner and new Contract Account.
The questions is: can we transfer these automatically?
We thought in different scenarios in case this is not possible, so I would appreciate if you can give us an opinion:
1 - Use FP40 transaction and transfer FICA elements manually
2 - Create a FOP process to perform step by step the process from CIC0. The only problem I have found is that there is not any object that allows me to transfer the open items. Does it exist? If not, this option is not valid
3 - Use the "Change CUstomer" Functionality. Did you have any experience using this funcionalidty? The main issue I have with this is that the system generates a dummy invoice, the Move in Date is in the future, and the Account must be closed.
Please any information will be very helpful. Thank you very much in advance!
Best Regards,
Lucas

Hi Lucas,
You can transfer the open items and the dunning level manually to the new BP and CA through transaction code FP40.
You need to maintain the following configuration settings in the posting area 1055-
Curr-Currency of the Cocd
Clearing Reason-Clearing reason used for transfer
Document Type-Document Type used for Transfer
Only all items- blank
Credit-X
Transfer DL-X
Moreover, you cannot transfer Instalment Plans through FP40, as instalment plan items are statistical in nature.
Hope it clarifies.....
Thanks,
Amlan

Planning at higher level

Hi all,
We are implementing multiple Planning, Budgeting and Forecasting. Budgeting and Forecasting will be done at the base level whereas Planning is done at the higher level. Now the concern I have is in BPC we can not post data at parent level so is it even possible to Plan at higher level.
If yes, then how can we do it. Please share your views.
Thanks,
Diksha.

Hi Rich,
Thanks for your reply. I have some more questions on this document.
1. If I want to plan at a much higher level , will this BADI work. Say for example: the base level members are at level 6, I want to plan at level 2 or level 3. Will it still write the records to level 6 members though they are not immediate dependants.
2. In the example given in the document, both the base level members and the parent member is in the input schedule. If I don't have the base level members shown in the input schedule, and I only have the parent member, will this BADI still post data to the base members.
For example: I have some 500 base members to one parent node. I don't want to display the 500 base members. I will only have one parent member in the input schedule and post data to that member only. Will it still say that 500 records are submitted.
How is the scoping done for this BADI. Generally for the default logic, scoping will be based on the members on the input schedule.
Thanks

Planning at daily level and weekly reports ?

Dear Experts,
Will be advisable to do Planning at daily level and weekly reports in 7.5 NW?
Any body did these kind of project earlier ? Kindly provide suggestions / recommendations please...
Thank you,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
We had done a planning at the daily level. However, the scope was also small for this planning scenario.
The main point is that in case of daily planning, the volume of the data might get too high. Any complex manipulation of the data might take a longer time due to the huge volume of the data.
Hope this helps.

Planning Job Aggregation Level

I am running a Background Job (Univariate Forecast Profile). My Selection Profile excludes 3 single values can I still run the model at this level of aggregation "total" excluding those 3 single values. Running the model at the Total should be more accurate than running the model for 22 single values and summing the forecast. For some reason a forecast is no longer being produced? I do get the warning Characteristic of selection not part of aggregation level. I didn't notice any problems the last couple months.
Thanks, experts!

Thanks Guarav, please see my comment below.
Ok, I believe I have resolved the issue. I am going to summarize my previous process.
1.Created a Master Profile (forecast) for each Strategy I wanted to test. I would use the same Master Profile even if I changed the Parameters in the Univariate Profile.
2.Used the same forecast Activity, changing each time I changed the Strategy. Planning Job would remain the same.
3.By creating a New Activity & New Planning Job my forecast model appears to be running correctly. The only items I continue to select in the Planning Job Aggregation Level are SourceSystem and Product.
It Appears the best methodology is to set up a separate Master Profile/Univariate Profile for each Strategy & set of Parameters. A separate Activity & Planning Job should also be set up for each Strategy & set of Parameters. This would also have to be done in order to add to an overnight (monthly) Process Chain.

Transfered option at Datasouce level at sap BI system

Hi Experts,
I have enhanced datasource at R/3,i have removed hide option for those enhanced, source code is also working fine but Datasouce already replicated by some one in sap bi system ,so 3.x datasource is available in sap bi system.
