Planning with Re-order point considering external requirements(MRP type V1)

Dear  all,
We are working for a scenario as mentioned below,
We procure some marterial from our vendors, stock it and then sell to other customers.
Here we want to use Re order point planning considering external requirements , i.e. MRP type V1.
We have maintained following master data
MRP type = V1
Re order point quantity
Lot size = HB
Maximum stock level
Planned delivery time.
We have also created source list,Info record and scheduling agreement
We also maintained setting of schedule agreement in source list as 2 (Record relevant to MRP schedule lines generated automatically)
By doing above mentioned things when we run MRP we are getting schedule lines generated through MRP, for the lot size arrived by considering re order level,max. stock level etc.
My requirement is the schedule line that is coming through MRP should get firmed up, whcih is not happening currently.
Pl. guide as what other setting is required for getting firmed schedule lines.
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi
Automatic firming of Schedule lines only possible with the settings of Planning time Fence (PTF) in MRP-1 view with MRP type which allows firming . With Standard MRP type V1 it is not possible.
As per my idea , better to create new MRP type in SPRO by copying V1 settings and give Firming type as 1  additionally. Use this new MRP type in the MRP-1 view and give Planning Time Fence say 30.
When u run MRP then the requirements falling within the PTF get firmed Automatically.
Pl try and revert back

  • Open Purchase Orders not considered as requirement for MRP Run

    Hi ,
    We are facing a issue of Open Purchase orders not appeared in Stock requirements list and also it is not considered as requirement for MRP Run against reservation.
    As aresult for a reservation demand of 10 units we are ending with Open POs 10 units and a additional planned order 10 units.
    Material Type : ERSA
    MRP Type : PD (or VB)
    Lot size : EX (  HB if MRP Type is VB)
    Could you please throw some light to correct our settings to MRP to consider Open POs?

    Can you check to see if there is a re-order point set up for this materia? That could be causing the problem too.

  • Is possible to maintain MRP type as PD with re-order point?

    Hi guru,
    my user maintain material master of one raw material like this
    MRP type : PD
    Safety Stock : 1000
    Lot Size : MB
    Minimum Lot size : 3000
    as they maintain safety stock 1000 , this will last long for 10 days and this material's lead time in purchasing for 12-15 day.
    When they run for MRP and check in MD04. they give me requirement like this.
    "when i run MRP, I want system to create PR when this material's stock fall under 3000"
    So i suggest they to change from PD to VB for use re-order point . but they not agree with my suggest because they want to see  dependent requirement list when check in MD04 and their reason is...
    "My material usage can't predictable so i can't forecast"
    when i suggest them to add re-order point to safety stock. as alway, they disagree.
    so i think, is it possible to use PD or other type of MRP that show list of dependent requirement with able to use re-order point? if it's possible, How?
    any suggestion is fine. point for useful answer
    regards,
    Kittisak.B

    Dear,
    If your user is willing to have requirement below 3000 then you should ask him to keep Safety stock as 3000 only & not 1000 because there is no meaning in keeping it 1000.You keep safety stock 3000 so as soon as stock is falling below 3000 system will generate procurement element ( requirement) in next MRP run.So even there is no need to maintain reorder point planning VB as MRP type as your user is not willing for it.
    Else you can maintain VB and reorder point as 3000 which will also furnish you the same result.In that case safety stock has not much significance.However if you maintain safety stock more than or equal to reorder point then it will serve your purpose.There is no meaning putting it below reorder point.
    Hope this helps resolve your problem.
    Revert with more details in case any doubt.

  • CM21 Strategy Profile with Setup Optimization but consider the requirements

    Dear guru.
    A question about strategy profile in CM21
    The system Is able to execute an automatic dispatch that optimize the setup time of the production order but also consider the requirements date in order that the production orders dispatched can cover the requirements without delay ?
    Thanks In advance

    Dear ,
    The system Is able to execute an automatic dispatch that optimize the setup time of the production order but also consider the requirements date in order that the production orders dispatched can cover the requirements without delay ?
    To answer to your query I would rather say that any operation  under an work centre have Execution time =Set up time +Processing Time +Tear Down Time  and also Inter operation time -Que time , Wait Time , Move Time .
    Now when you dipatch the operation in CM21 , it cheks the available capacity on that date  and also compare with the total operation timimngs within schedule start and schedule finish date  and then dispach automatically if work centre is not overloaded otherwise it will pop up with a Scheduling Logg or else it will appear with an window that will show u Date , Work Centre , Operation , timie so that you can change according to WC load n availablity in alternate date .So In the strategy prfile if you click Display dates while dispatching u can obseve the same .
    Now total  production order schedule start and schedule finsihe date will be considered and it will automatically chage as per the WC availabli capaciy while automatic dispatch .But u need to SAVE that to observe the changes in CM21.
    Hope it is clear

  • Bill Plan with Sales Order item rejected

    Milestone Billing Plan created.
    IMG Config Sales Order Item Reason for Rejection = BIC checked (Not Relevant for Billing)
    Add material on the (Billing Plan) Sales Order Item.
    Set the Item Reason For rejection (same reason as set in IMG config for BIC above)
    Create some Billing Plan dates (at the sales order header).
    [F3] back. You get an info message "Value-based differences in the billing plan cannot be allocated"
    Save the Order.. All is fine.
    If I do not set a reason for rejection on the item all is fine.
    Can anyone explain this ?

    Hi Friends
    I have resolved the problem myself. I have used sap note : 97272 and downloaded the utility/ correction program ZZUNREJE and ran it for rejected sales line item.
    The reason for rejection was successfully reversed without touching any of the associated POs.

    3.     Create port
    4.     Create partner profile
    7. I changed the fields in material master data(Tcode MM02)  and I executed the Tcode BD21.
    Idoc is generated but the fields are not getting fill with the values
    (Note: some fields  are filled with values e. g material number, material description)
    I checked the Idoc data segment E1MARAM (WE02)
    Fld name   Fld cont.
    LAENG       /

  • What are external requirements in re-order planning?

    Hi,
    I read in SAP help that "sales orders, dependent requirements, reservations and so on..." are external requirements.
    Is the  demand from a production order considered external requirement?
    Also what are dependent requirements here? & what kind of reservations are considered a part of external requirements?
    Sincerely,
    Puja

    Hi,
    In reorder point planning normally only stock is taken into consideration, meaning that replenishment is initiated when stock falls below the reorder point, and replenishment lot size is either a fixed quantity or up to a maximum stock level.
    In some cases you may want to take into consideration also additional requirements; demand from production orders is a reservation, thus taken into account.

  • MRP at storage location level with external requirements

    HI,
    We have to have reorder point planning at storage location level. Also we need to consider external requirements.
    When I am setting storage location MRP indicator as 2 and putting Reorder point and replenishment quantity, then after running MRP it only considers the replenishment quantity but it doesnot consideer any external requirements.
    Help me out how to configure the requirement?
    Regards
    Sukant

    Hi,
    I think your question is answered by Sarita Doddi.
    If you have several storage location for your plant, you cannot plan for them separately unless you assign them to a separate MRP area.
    If a storage location (alone) is assigned to an MRP area, it means you wan to plan for it separately. If several storage locations are assigned to an MRP area (or let's say to a plant), it means you want to plan using all of them - and you cannot choose only one and plan for it (you can exclude a SLoc from planning w/o assigning it to MRP area).
    So, planning is not SLoc wise, it goes MRP area wise.

  • MRP Type V1 does not consider Ext. req. Sales Order after MRP run

    Hi Buddies
    My client wants to use MRP Type V1 which should consider re-order point as well as external requirement (i.e. Sales Order) for net requirement calculation.However when i tried using V1 in material master and ran MD03 it only considered re-order point  and ignored Sales Order.Sales Order didnt even reflect in MD04.Moreover in OMDQ for V1 under additional ext req there is no Sales Order for selection.
    Please reply how i can have ext req sales order for MRP Type V1.
    Regards,
    Sachin Narvekar

    Hi
    MRP Type V1 creats the requirement when the need exceeds the Reorder Point, where as the MRP type VB creats the requirement when the stock qty goes below the reorder point.

  • Automatic Single Item multi-level planning on sales order creation

    Hi all,
    I am using strategy 50 and want planning for single item to be carried out at the time of sales order creation to avoid MRP run everytime sales order is created..In order to achieve it i checked Automatic Planning Indicator in "OVZG" for the requirement class "045" which is requirement class for sales order of strategy 50. But still unable to achieve the desired result..
    Please guide me through.
    best regards,
    shah

    HI shah,
    in sales order go to Procurement tab there u will get the requirement type. system will determine requirement class based upon following criteria
    1) by strategy group in material master
    2) if strategy group not there then MRP group
    3) if mrp group not there then material type
    4) by this also not able to fine the requirement type then special rule is used with the help of item category and mrp type
    5) if this also fails then it will go with item category only
    6) this also fails then it will give any requirement type
    hope this is clear

  • MRP Type V1 - How to take open Purchase Orders into consideration

    hi I'm having a problem with a material which is setup as MRP type V1.
    When running MRP using NEUPL a purchase requisition is created as expected based on re-order point on the material master. At this point the Purchase Req is converted to a PO, but the delivery date maybe pushed out before saving. Running MRP after pushing out the deliver date on Purchase Orer generates another Purchase Requistion with a delivery date before the PO. Is there a way to get MRP to take the open PO into consideration rather than suggesting another PO ?
    Our planning horizon is set to 365 days.
    Is it possible to get MRP to see the PO and not suggest a req ?
    Thanks for any help

    I have checked the availability check and we are using one that is ticked to include purchase orders. this does not seem to have any effect.
    The lead time on the item is 5 on the material master and 15 on the infor rec which is not that high ?
    and when running MB02 for the item I am running with Create Purchase Requistion = 1
    is it that what I'm expecting is unrealistic? i.e that for re-order point materials MRP is only going to take into account the lead times and if there is a Purchase Order with a delivery date outside of the leadtime the system will see that we need to reorder and generates a Req within the leadtime without looking out futher to see what's on order ?

  • MRP is conflicting with Sales order requirement Qty and date

    Hi experts,
    We have below scenario:
    Material has the stock 100. It has reorder point 3 and MRP type V2 (Automatic reorder point with external requirements) and planned delivery time 10 days.
    MRP run creates purchase requisition whenever the stock falls below reorder level or/and based on customer orders requirements.
    We created first sales order for Qty 80 and delivery date 03/01/2012.  Qty 80 is confirmed against this sales order.
    We created second sales order for Qty 50 and delivery date 01/31/2012. Now remaining Qty 20 is confirmed against this order. So we have requirements of 30 Qty for this second order.
    When we run MRP, it supposes to create Purchase requisition for Qty 33 (30 + 3) including reorder point (3 Qty). As the delivery date for this order is 01/31/2012 and requirement Qty is 30, and planned delivery time is10 days, MRP run should create purchase requisition. But it is not creating.
    If I change the planned delivery time to 30 days, it is creating purchase requisition. It is considering sales order delivery date of First order (delivery date: 03/01/2012), but not for second order (delivery date: 01/31/2012).
    So MRP is conflicting with Sales order requirement Qty and date.
    Appreciate your help in this regard to resolve the issue
    Thanks,

  • Re-order point planning

    Dear Sir,
    We have configured Re-order point planning. Accordingly we have created
    the MRP controller and updated the material master (812 materials) with
    all the values required for re-order point planning.
    With all these settings, system is not running planning after executing
    MD01 (total planning), only planning start and stop time is displayed
    as a result. Where as if I run single item, single level planning with
    MD03 for the same material, system runs the planning and proposes the
    purchase requisition also for that material.
    Is the planning file creation is the solution of the issue...
    if it is then how to create the planning file for bulk material (800 no approx). Do we need to do create the planning file again and again, if we want to add the mateail in Re-order point planning
    Regards,
    Sachin

    Dear Mr Sachin,
    For the materials that are relevant for re-order point planning, the planning file entry will be made automatically by the system when the stock level falls below the "Re-Order point".
    Then in the next MRP run procurement proposals will be created for these materials.
    Hence unless the stock level falls below the re order point, planning file  entries will not be made & system will not create any proposal.
    Regards,
    Ramasamy
