Procurement planning

Hi experts
what are the config. steps involved when it comes to procurement planning in SNP and PP part of PPDS ,in product master we have that procurement tab aprt from that where all in SNP and PPDS screens we need to invoke procurement related parameters -the scenario is like 30 units come from supplier A and 20 units comes from supplier B ,10 units comes from external contactor and 50 units are produced as inhouse production all these together make  a FERT so i need material from supplier A and B and contractor along with inhouse produced (HALB) material ...
the issue boils down to --like--.I want to execute procurement planning separately for  this FERT material .
.system wise where do i start  and where will i end up ?  
would you please help me with some material to gain insight into this procurement planning part in  APO

Hi Rahul,
As suggested by Ada, you need to set the procurement type to X since you are procuring it externally as well as making it inhouse.
You will have to create quota arrangement and include all the four sources of supply in the quota. So three of them will be based on the external procurement relationships (2 vendors and 1 Subcontractor) and fourth one will be based on "In House Production".

Mitesh

  • Procurement Planning in BPC

    Hey Guys,
    Can we do Procurement Planning (Material Planning) in BPC System?
    This is something new for me... I know we do Income/expense planning, Headcount plnning and CAPEX planning as these all r financial planning (Account based).  but doing the procurement planning in BPC System is entirely new for me..
    can we do that in BPC or should we keep it safe for APO only??

    Any Suggestions from experts???

  • Consider tolerance during procurement planning in MTS

    Hi Gurus,
    Our net requirement calculation is considering Under delivery tolerance sourcing from Sales requirement, this is working fine in the net requirement calculation but we would also require to similarly consider the Sales tolerance as tolerated material shortage in MTS procurement planning, for example:
    Sales order (S1) is requesting finished product P1 for 891 Kg on February, 01st, with a tolerance of -/+ 10%
    Receipt (R1) is covering S1with 891 Kg as receipt qty
    R1 has a dependant requirement on material P2 for 891 Kg
    P2 is configured in a Make To Stock strategy.
    Available stock (AS) on P2 is 850 Kg
    Stock replenishment order (R2) with 1500 Kg planned on March, 1st
    Actual procurement planning is pegging (AS) and (R2) on (R1) dependant requirement, leading then to have R1 with a planned start date on March, 1st (corresponding to latest pst), resulting into a delay covering customer requirement!
    We would expext as a result of the procurement planning of above example to get (R1) dependant requirement only peg on (AS) as 850 Kg is within S1 tolerance.
    Is there a way to achieve this ?
    BR,
    Pascal.

    Pascal,
    Your requirement is illogical for MTS.  You are jumping to the conclusion that P2 is only supporting your lone P1 Sales order.  In fact, in a MTS environment, P2 must generically supply any/all demand for the P2 material, including, but not limited to, dependent demand from P1.  This flexibility is a major reason one uses MTS,  The production is anonymous, and can be used for any demand..
    Consider the situation where there are 10 different sales orders for P1, or for any other parent part of P2.  Consider that each of these orders has a different Underdelivery tolerance.  Which UD Tolerance should be used for P2? .
    Using Underdelivery tolerances for planning only works the way you want in MTO scenario, where there is a distinct planning segment for each sales order/item.

  • Convert procurement plan from I2 into purchase requisitions

    Hello Greetings,
    Trying to findout if anyone has experience in converting procurement plan from I2 into purchase requisitions, without having to build a custom interface.
    Thanks Very Much
    Moorthy Mahadevan

    Hi Ahmad,
    If you want to firm planned orders, then use MRP type P1,P2,P3,P4 and P5. The firming logic of already existing and new planned orders are differs for the MRP type P1 to P5. You can select as per your requirement.
    Then if you want the system do not generarate new Planned order if PR exist already, please select the Individual/Collective indicator in MRP 4 view to Collective requirement (02).
    Thanks and regards

    Hi,
    for 2) direct material works like an ext. classic scenario. However it is not exactly the same since ECS could have accounting assignment where direct material excluded that.
    for 3) Local purchasing grp is mandatory for direct material and ECS scenario. Other than that, it is not required. The user can exists anywhere in the org structure as long as a responsible P.Org and Grp have been assigned for that user.

  • How to produce to the point in the procurement plan

    HI:
         At present, our material purchase plan is  delivery schedules of Outline  Agreement delivery plan line generated by running the MRP , but the delivery schedule line there is a problem, that scheme is at a certain date, we hope to generate a delivery schedule can be accurate to one day of the a point in time, such as 2009-12-20 10:30 , how to do ?

    In your example, your BigDecimals will always be accurate to exactly one decimal place. The string you construct the object with determines this. If you need accuracy to 4 decimal places, say so:
    BigDecimal preciseToFourPlaces = new BigDecimal("4.0000");

  • 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.

  • CIF - Dependent Requirements for Product Planned Externally

    Hi Experts,
    I have flagged a product in APO to be planned externally [Procurement type: P - external procurement planning].
    I see it has Planned Externally in the Planned Orders where it is used as a component.
    My problem is that que Requirements are not transfered to R/3 so the product can be planned by MRP.
    What are the necessayr settings to maintain (excluding the technical CIF settings to connect R/3 to APO).
    Thanks,
    Marc

    Hi Kumar,
    So basically, you are saying that I can only transfer planned orders through the CIF and that I was wrong in assuming that I could transfer Dependent Requirements directly ?
    Thanks,
    Marc

  • Advance material planning for projects

    Dear All,
    We have a scenario for fabrication industry. Where client want to plan material procurement in advance for manufacture FG. But BOM of FG will come in later stage when design phase get finished in phases. Initial for cost planning and material procurement planning, they are finding out requirement of material quantities and costing happened on it. This material is planned for procurement, while the BOM will prepared in later design stage. FG are assigned to project activities, and project MRP will give planned orders. these material bom will rolled cost to activities, cost will get doubled and material too. How to handle this scenario, Any standard solution.

    Hi Shrikant,
    The advance procurement material list should be prepared and then it should be attached in initial stage to project.
    Header(X)
    Line item 1
    Line item 2
    This advance procurement BOM should be attached such that
    the header(X) will become text item after attachment and
    for the line items the Preq will be generated.
    For this line item should be make to stock procurement type
    and this should behave as dependent and independent requirement
    and there will be no duplicacy of the requirements.
    You need to dicuss this with PP consultant.

  • Selective deletion and plan data

    Hello Gurus,
    I am having some doubts
    Any one of  them,could you please  clarify my doubts.
    1.By using the selective deletion (for Infocube),I have deleted some records.
    when i checked it on the log,In Deletion mode its showing the different values such as D,N and R....
    When I deleted the records,it has created 2 requests in log .
    onething its showing the status as 'N' and another thing as 'R'
    What is this mean.why its differing by requests.
    2.Reg plan data,How we are getting this plan data.(I know,based on actual data we are creating),But what is the procedure,how and  where we are creating this plan data like R/3 or BW.
    Will assign points.
    Thanks in advance
    Brgds
    Kumar

    Hi,
    As far as plan data is concern, there would be various plan data requirements for an org. let's say 'sales budget' / 'Production Planning' / 'Procurement plan' /
    'inventory status'..and so on so forth..
    basically when ever there is plan data requirement normaly the concern department has to prepare the paln data for the quater/Half/fiscal year, on either
    a legacy system or R/3 system..
    If it is from R/3 you are suppose to create a DS and then an infosource and so on..
    If it is a Legacy system - then go for the File Upload, after making your flat file
    infosource.
    Hope this helps..
    assign points if useful..
    cheers,
    Pattan.

  • Does Make To Order planning consider any SNP/PPDS Horizons

    Guys
    Does Make To Order planning consider any SNP/PPDS Horizons unike the Make to Stock scenario planning?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the response guys.
    In RRP3 view, when I look at the Individual project segment demand, I do not see any  SNP/PPDS Horizons. However, when I see the demands under the MTS segment, I can see the  SNP/PPDS Horizons.
    In MTS scenario, I understand that only those orders that falls within PPDS horizon are picked up by PPDS planning and orders outisde SNP horizon are picked up by SNP planning.
    However, as MTO is purely PPDS planning, I am just wondering whether  SNP or PPDS horizon comes into the picture in this scenario or not.
    Further more, my primary concern in MTO scenario is, if PPDS horizon is taken into the picture ( which is usually in the near visible term and < SNP horizon, say 15 days), and as PPDS planning doesn't pick the demand in the MTO segment until the demand falls with in this horizon, aren't we not leveraging the full functionality of procurement planning, as PPDS plans the demand by picking it just before 15 days (in this example) of the original requirement date, and the company might not be able to fulfil the customer order as the replenishment time might be long for this particular product being procured/produced.
    So, I am basically leaning towards an understanding that what ever demand that falls in the Individual Customer/Project segment (MTO), it will be picked up PPDS planning regard less of SNP/PPDS horizons.
    Please advice, if my understanding is wrong and I would appreciate if you quote some examples which might help me better understand the scenario.
    Thanks

  • LongTerm Planning-Demand Creation,MRP Execution

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me what is meant by Longterm planning. What are the Tcodes used for using LongTerm Planning.
    How can we say that a given material is planned by Longterm Planning?.
    How to create demand in Longterm planning and then execute MRP in Longterm planning?.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    LTP - Long Term Planning is one of the planning tool provided by SAP for the planning puropses. It has got multiple usgaes, for production planning, procurement planning or for budget control etc. Why it is used depends mainly on what kind of business one is doing, what kind of products a company is producing. Mainly we do LTP for MTS scenarios. In MTO scenarios also we can use LTP.
    As the name says it is used for the planning purpose only and we can do multiple plannings by using inactive planning versions available or by creationg them. Analyse the result of the planning in inactive version and subsequntly convert or transfer inactive plan to active demand plan and execute the processes in a normal way.
    Main object in LTP is the creation of planning scenarios, which contains details reagrding validity dates of scenario, which all objects need to be considered for planning (viz, production orders, sales orders, PO, PR, planned orders , stocks, capacity, BOM explosion etc check t code MS31/MS32/MS33 etc), the plants where LTP is going to be used,  what is the inactive version is going to be used etc. The creation of scenario helps in simulaitong the planning results.
    Demand for LTP will be created in a normal way as we do it in DM. You can also use SOP to transfer data to LTP.
    You use planning scenarios created earlier whenever you run LTP. The result of LTP are inactive plans and nonconvertibles. You can use MRP result only for the analysis purpose. You do this analysis lutliple times by using different planning scenarios for the same bunch of materials. When you feel one of the scenario/simulation is giving proper results then you can convert that inactive planning to active plan and proceed ahead with normal execution cycle.
    Hope this will help.

    Pavan
