Planning Distribution
Hi All,
I have created a Planning application with 4-5-5 distribution. Now I would like to change it for 4-5-4 distribution. Is There a way to change this. Because I do not wish to recreate the entire application only for this reason. Any ideas are highly appreciated. I am on 9.3.1 version.
Thanks in Advance.
As far as I know, the weekly distribution option is greyed out as soon as you select one of the options and create your application, so you can't edit/change it later on. Not sure if there is a setting you can change on the relational database side, but I am almost certain you will have to re-create your application.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Distribution resource planning, Distribution requirement Planning
Hi PP Gurus
Can anyone tell me what is SAP-DRP(Distribution resource planning) . Also want to know
1. Configuration steps for DRP
2. Transactions to complete business scenario.
3. Prerequisites to implement SAP DRP.
Thanks in Advance
HemantDear
Distribution Resource Planning
Distribution resource planning provides a framework for determining the need to replenish
inventory by:
Linking market requirements with manufacturing and demand management
Relating current inventory positions and demand forecasts to production scheduling
Matching material supply to manufacturing demand, and customer demand to product
supply
Process Flow
1. You define all nodes in the network including plants, distribution centers (DCs),
warehouses, and stock transfer points using the Distribution Network tool.
2. You set up the material master record for each node. In MRP 4 of the material master
record, you must define the deployment strategy for each material (the fair and push
distribution options) as well as deployment horizon (push horizon). For the push horizon,
enter the number of days for which the system considers the ATD quantity and any
additional quantity produced. Any quantity produced beyond the push horizon is not
considered in the deployment calculation.
3. To calculate an available to deploy (ATD) quantity, use the availability check rule, DE, in
Customizing, u2018Carry out control for availability check.u2019 The availability check and the
deployment checking rule, determine the MRP elements that are used to calculate the
ATD quantity.
4. You create a forecast for each DC; for example, a sales forecast.
5. You transfer the forecasted data to Demand Management. The system creates
independent requirements.
6. You perform a DRP run in each DC and in each supplying plant. The DRP run considers
the quota arrangements defined in the network, available stock, sales orders, and
independent requirements.
The DRP run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the
supplying plants.
The DRP run in the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.
7. You convert planned orders into production orders for manufacturing.
You run deployment to produce stock transport orders for distribution of stock from the supplying
plants to the DCs.
Distribution Requirement Planning :
Generates stock transport requisitions between locations.
Accounts for time-dependent safety stocks when the replenishment stock is calculated.
Initiates planning runs in a net change procedure or in a regenerative planning mode
Deployment
When demand is greater than supply, deployment calculates a fair share quantity based on the available-to-deploy (ATD) quantity and requirements in the distribution centers to be supplied.
When supply is greater than demand, deployment calculates distribution of stock using pull or push logic within the distribution network according to planned requirements.
Generates stock transport orders from suggested orders in the DRP plan.
Prioritizes quantities supplied based on requirements types (customer order, forecast, and safety stock).
Multi-Sourcing Using Quota Arrangements
Lets multiple plants supply a percentage of the material required by a single location, which makes it possible to prioritize the deliveries made by plants and to specify maximum delivery quantities for particular time periods.
Represents simple capacity constraints, and combines the percentage-based and maximum quantity approaches.
Lets you establish minimum, maximum, and rounding profiles for lot sizing within the network.
Lets you change the distribution network at future dates.
Lets you offset delivery times for specific items from the sourcing location to the replenishment location.
Single-Sourcing Using Special Procurement Keys
Hope this above details will be useful for your requirement .

Error in plan distribution (KSVB)
Hi,
When i run run plan distribution (KSVB), I am facing a error
saying ' the document xyz does not exist'.
I checked dat document in FB03 also, it doesnot there.
How to resolve this??
Regards,
SwethaHi,
Have you done archiving of your documents? The error implies that one of CO documents that was created by previous run of allocation cycle (you cannot see it through FB03, but through KABP) is deleted, and therefore cannot be reversed. If you did not archive your documents, you can look at the following notes:
186352
192120
... and eventually execute RKCORR99_EASY report.

Controlling & Finance Planning - Distribution Keys
Hello everybody,
got a problem regarding the distribution key 2, which should distribute the plan values as before. We are using mySAP ERP FICO 2005. The other distribution keys 1 for eqaul distribution or 7 for distributing according to number of days are working fine. Did i miss something or is it a general bug?
Regards
FlorianYou may use transaction KP80 to see the list of standard Distribution Keys. It is the same transaction that you could use to create your own.

Hi
We have uploaded the plan data to a common cost center and after distribution to individual cost centers the common cost center is not credited. The common cost center still shows the amount uploaded.
Please help to solve the issue
regards
HariHi
If I check the cost center plan data, it is balanced to zero. The issue is that,
We are using Special purpose ledger and generating report through GR55. The report is showing balance in the sending cost center. I have completly checked the Report painter settings and seems to be fine.
I have checked the GD13 report for that ledger and did not find the credit entry (Posting through distribution)
As per the business scenario, we upload plan data only for 6 months through version 10 and for the next 6 months again will upload through version 20.
I dont have any issue with version 10. The problem is with Version 20
Is there any configuring missing in version that does not post data to the ledger

Changes to Weekly distributions pattern in planning after deployment/creat
Hi All,
Hope someone can help me answer this query:
I create a Planning application. I set up the currencies,weekly distributions patterns etc and deploy the application.
Can I now go ahead and change the weekly distribution from 4-4-5 to 5-4-4
Thanks in advanceHi, you can't change weeks distribution through interface after app deployment. No matter is it classic or EPMA app.
But you can do it via SQL directly in planning scheme. And then you have to restart planning web service
To be sure see also Re: Planning Distribution

Dear All,
We have activated New GL Doc Splitting.
When I try to enter the plan values against the Profit Center,the system gives the following message :
Plan period 002 2011 not allowed
Message no. GLPL722
System Response
The selected plan period is not allowed.
Procedure
Set the desired plan period in Customizing under "Define Plan Periods" (transaction GCP5).
Then I went to GCP5 and maintained the plan periods as below:
0001 1 2011 12 9999 13 2011 16 9999
But still the system gives the same message and not allowing to enter the plan values.
Can anybody help me that anything is missed out from configuration point of view.
Regards
Su.Dear Ajay M,
Thanks a lot for suggesting the correct answer and solved the issue and now Iam able to plan the revenues agaist the PC.
But at the same time when I execute the Plan Distribution Cycle for allocation of revenue the sytem given the following message,even though I have creted the correct cycle and planned the revenues against the Revenue Element / PC.
Cycle 0LPLANDISN, start date 20110101, does not include any senders.
Message no. GA749
Diagnosis
No senders were found for cycle 0LPLANDISN, starting date 20110101.
System Response
It is no longer possible to create receivers and assign senders for the segment.
Procedure
Check the definition of the cycle in the maintenance transaction for Plan Distribution: General Ledger. No valid sender cost centers could be found to match your selection.
If you use the sender rules "Posted amounts" or "Posted quantities", check whether records exist in the database for the criteria you entered (cost element, version...)
During indirect activity allocation with the sender rule "posted quantities", you should also note that only the difference between the planned/posted activity allocation and the scheduled activity quantity is allocated. If you entered activity types as sender, you should at this point also check the activity type category. For those quantities posted with an activity type of category 1 (manual entry, manual allocation) no indirect activity allocation is possible.
1. If this is an allocation in the FI/FI-SL area, the problem could also be due to the inheritance logic for FI-SL totals tables, whose "Inheritance of sender based on the receiver" indicator is activated in the "Partner object update" view (T811U-INHERSRC). These are tables that were installed before Release 4.6A.
Use transaction GCA8 to check this, and see the section on:
Inheritance Logic for Allocations
then correct the affected cycle, if required.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

Forecast for planning over the Cost element/Cost center with KP06
Hi all
I'm searching a idea: one of our chief controller need to insert a "forecast" of budget inserted over the various cost elements/cost centers using the transaction KP06. THe problem is that he don't want lost the budget because he can need the reload the previous budget data during the year if the actual situation change. Obvisiously the insertion of the forecast overwrite the budget data over the version 0. This forces us to download over a file the budget and archive it, and reload it eventually. But this solution, a part the programming effort, don't permit to have both the data at the same time in the system. Exist a pratical customizing solution in CO for manage a "forecast"? Our release is 46c.
thanks
DavideThanks Pascal.
Some questions (i dont' have a CO background ):
>execute charge transferts and plan distribution in the new >version
Can you explicate me these concepts (or the transaction used for make this, probably I know this but in italian the name is different)? The KP47 copy the value over the single cost element or only the total of cost center?
>KP98 is the transaction to copy postings from version 0 to >another version. In this case version 0 is the template.
Are you sure? The KP98 have the description "Copy by actual version to planned version", the KP97 "copy from planned to planned"
thanks in advance

hi gurus,
when we define a plan in ASCP there are Manufacturing plan, Distribution plan and production plan. When we define a production plan, then this plan will be for the high level item i.e. nothing but the end items or the FG items. If this is a production plan then only those items which are defined as MPS / MPP will be used in this plan.
so for a manufacturing ASCP plan how can we use the production schedule as a demand, as per the oracle concepts we have learnt that the output of a production plan can be used as an input for the manufacturing plan.
so where do we input that output of the production plan as an input in the plan options of the manufacturing plan that i define.....
thanks & regardsYou have to maintain two plans
1. One is the production plan which has its own inputs for demand ( forecast or MDS etc)
2. Second is Manufacturing plan where in plan options .. you have to assign your production plan from setp 1 as input to this plan ( as demand schedule) -
hi experts,
i created a distribution cycle both planned and actual , but while tyring to allocate cost to desired cost center it takes into consideration only the planned value. will somebody tell me how can i allocate actual cost to the reciever cost center
regards
maryamHi Abdul,
You need to create the Distribution Cycle for Plan and Actual seperately. Creation of Plan Distribution Cycle - KSV7 and Creation of Actual Distribution Cycle - KSV1. Pls check if you have done it.
When you create the Actual Distribution Cycle, in each segment, you need to select the radio button "Act.Vals" under "Sender Values". Pls check if you have done this. And also check if there are any actual postings happened to the Sender Cost Centers in the cycle. (Use KSB1 transaction code).
Pls check and revert back for further explanation...

Need help: Distribution demand is not getting created when Iu2019m using Purch
Friends,
When Iu2019m running the heurisitic plan distribution demand is not getting created. Iu2019m working on SCM 5.1
I have a transportation lane which are automatically created using the Purchase inforecords. Iu2019m not
facing any issues tranfering this purchase info records (PIR). Iu2019m able to see this as transportation lanes
in APO. When I run the heuristic plan run purchase requsition are getting created but distribution
demand is not getting created. I have tested the same scenario by manually creating transportation
lanes. The manually created transportation lanes are generating distribution demand but purchase info
record transportaton lanes are not generating the distribution demand. What may the cause? I would really appreciate for
your input in advance.

KRNFriend,
I have maintained the means of transport to the tranportation lane

What is the difference between define Assessment and define distribution
What is the difference between define Assessment(S_ALR_87005742) and define distribution(S_ALR_87005757)
Hi,
Assessment and distribution of relevant overhead costs is performed at period closing (actual data) or plan closing (plan data). This is usually done directly in CO. It is then reflected in the data in Profit Center Accounting.If you have a service profit center or allocation profit center in your profit center hierarchy, you may need to assess or Distribute costs again in Profit center Accounting.
In Profit Center Accounting, the allocation function allows you to allocate the following plan and actual data.
-- Costs (assessment and/or distribution)
-- Revenues and sales deductions (assessment and/or distribution)
-- Balance sheet items (distribution)
Assessment is made using a special cost/revenue element. In distribution, the original cost/revenue element/account number is retained.
Assesment,you set rules in the form of cycles for allocating primary and secondary costs in plan.
Activities in assesment are
Create an plan assessment cycle by proceeding as follows:
1. Enter a name for the cycle
2. Enter a validity timeframe for the cycle
3. Maintain the header data for the cycle by entering the following:
a) In which currencies the costs should be charged
b) Whether consumption quantities should be charged
c) Whether negative tracing factors should be scaled
d) Whether the cycle should be processed iteratively
e) In which version the cycle is valid
4. Create segments for the cycle that contain the following information:
a) The sender cost element to be distributed
b) Criteria to distribute the costs among the receivers
c) Sender objects
d) Receiver objects
Distribution ,you create rules in the form of cycle for the settlement of primary costs on a cost center.
Activities in distribution are
Create a plan distribution cycle by proceeding as follows:
1. Determine a name for the cycle.
2. Determine a validity period for the cycle.
3. Maintain the header data for the cycle by entering the following.
a) Which currencies are to be used in the allocations
b) Whether consumption is to be allocated or not
c) Whether negative tracing factors are scaled or not
d) Whether cycle processing is to be iterative
e) In which version the allocation is to take place
4. Define cycle segments in which you store the following information.
a) Sender cost element to be distributed
b) Criteria for cost distribution to the receiver
c) Sender objects
d) Receiver objects

Hi All,
In CO like Cost Center Accounting,Internal Order,Profit Center Accounting and Project systems.every where we see planning.
in planning we have Assessments,Distributions and Settlements?can any one explain me clearly Plan Assessments,Plan Distributions and Plan Settlements? and where do we use this?i mean what is the business scenario?
I will assign points.
Thanks,
RauThe activity price planning that you perform in CCA, which is used for determining the conversion cost in your Material cost estimate, can be determined automatically if you use Plan Assessments and Distributions.
One of the scenario that i have configured in the past is that the client will enter the plan values by cost center, primarily for the supporting functions i.e. non-manufacturing cost centers. Once all the plan values are finalized, then we will do distribution and assessment of these plan values to the Manufacturing cost centers. You may also have some direct costs associated with your manufacturing cost centers, so you can enter the plan values directly for these also. Once you do the plan assessment / distribution to your manufacturing cost centers, then we will run the steps for Splitting and Activity Price Calculation.
Whatever the rules that we configure for Plan Assessments/Distributions, the same rules will be applicable for your actual assessments/distributions also.
This is probably only 1 scenario and each client may have different requirements. If the client does planning at the cost center level and for some cost centers they would like to derive the values based on certain rules, then you can use assessments/distributions.
Thanks,
