Production Planning in IS-Retail

Hello all,
I was wondering if it is possible to use Production Planning if IS-Retail industry Solution is activated. I know that materials are converted to articles in IS-Retail, but I don´t know if this could affect the process of production planning.
Thanks in advance.
Ezequiel

Hi,
You can use PP module in IS Retail too!!
But, following functions not support in SAP Retail
(a) Long-term planning: You cannot maintain specific data for long-term planning for articles.
(b) Co-product production: You cannot create specific data for co-product production (for example, apportionment structure for costs) for articles. You can map production transactions with by-products in the bill of material, using articles with a negative quantity

On Order Stock not considering while Replenishment planning in IS-Retail

Hi SAP Gurus,
I am running Replenishment planning in IS -Retail system, but it's not considering On order Stock (e.g Purchase order - schedule receipts). could you please tell me the config where system can consider on order stock.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Mayank,
I had already done the steps that you have mentioned. i.e. Changing the error processed records to
"Not Processed" and running the initial load again, but it does not help as the exception still continue to be the same i.e. No Product or Location can be found in the database" whereas these details are already present in the system i.e.if you check /FRE/MASS_LOC or for product.
After checking the help (F1) for TEMPRPFROM, it clearly specifies that if a date is mentioned in the field, it will activate the blocking on the date and if no value is present in the field, then the temporary blocking will not be enabled.
Also, a surprising fact is that whenevr I transfer the product or location details on a particular date, the TEMPRPFROM reflects that particular date even in the interface tables. So wondering whether some customizing field is present in IS-Retail side which is causing this issue

Product hierarcy in SAP Retail?

Hi,
I have heard that there is a possibility to have more then one product hierarcy in SAP Retail.
The std hierarcy (created in OVSV) is used for financial follow up but we need the possibility to have another hierercy for presenting the products to the customers in a structured way. I have herad that there are such possibilities in SAP Retail, but I cant find them.
Pls tell me if it is possible and also how I go about.
Thanks,
Emma

Hi Emma,
In SAP IS Retail, if you wish to use hierarchy for presenting the products to the customers in a structured way. Then you can use either Article Hierarchy or Merchandise Category Hierarchy.
The Article Hierarchy in SAP ERP enables customers to structure goods based on customer-individual criteria. It is used in Planning, Operations and Reporting on different levels of aggregation.
Path:
Logistics --> Retailing --> Master Data > Article Hierarchy Data> Create           (WMATGRP01)
Whereas merchandise categories mostly observe physical attributes of the goods the article hierarchy groups articles from a sales perspective.
Path:
Logistics --> Retailing --> Master Data --> Material Group Data --> Merchandise Category   (WG21)
Logistics --> Retailing --> Master Data --> Material Group Data --> Merchandise Category Hierarchy Level    (CLWM)
Hope it helps.

Product Costing in SAP Retail Solution

Hi experts
I have a question about product costing in SAP Retail (SAP ECC 6.0).
In material master data (Tr. MM43 - Tr. MM42) Product Costing view for Logistics:CD sheet is activated.
Although, for Logistics:Store sheet is not activated.
In customizing, we have tried to activate the Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet, but there no standard dynpro to use it. So, we have some doubts:
- Do we have to create customer (Z) dynpros in order to activate Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet?
- Does SAP allows Product Costing functionality in SAP Retail solution?
If both answers are YES, i have another doubt:
- In our business scenario, the store is supplied by the Distribution Center. So, does it make sense to run product costing for
a articles in a Store?
We think it makes sense to apply product costing functionality in Distribution center. In order to analyze deviations from
Standard costs to real costs. But we are not sure about Stores.
Does anyone have experience in customizing product costing functionality for a SAP retail in a Logistics:Store?
Thank you for your time

hi
Product hierarchy in R3 is termed as Merchandise category hierarchy in SAP IS retail
But in R3 Product hierarchy is not used much but Merchandise category hierarchy that is termed as MCH is a basic thing reqd for defining master data that is article master data which is nothing but material master in R3
As i said Product hierarchy levels are available in R3 also but not much used
Merchandise category hierarchy levels is most commonly used in SAP IS retail
What we call material group in R3 is same as Merchandise category in SAP IS retail and material in R3 is article in Retail
Merchandise category hierarchy levels
Say a Retail mall has merchandise items
Under merchandise there are 2 divisions Food and non food
Under nonfood say there are 2 divisions say hardware and apparel
Under apparel there 2 divisions say Mens wear and ladies wear
Under mens wear you have t shirts,shirts and pants etc
Here t shirts,shirts and pants etc are individual articles
Menswear and ladies wear are material groups
Hardware and apparel are merchandise hierarchy level 1
Food and non food merchandise hierarchy level 2
Retail mall is merchandise hierarchy level 3
like that hierarchy levels are commonly defined and used as a must to have efficient master data in SAP retail and the maximum no of hierarchy to have ideally is 6 apart from Merchandise category
In our example we have defined three levels
The same functionality can be used as product hierarchy in R3 also but doesnt been put in to use much
In Retail the no of articles a store is going to manage to be will be huge hence this sort of seggregation is needed there must
For more clarity try to post this in retail forum(Trading industries)

Sales order reference at the time of Production Planning

Hi all,
Is there any Hard check (or) Validation at the time of assigning sales order in Production order?
to be more specific
At the time of creating production plann, we assign open sales order to that. Again if new production plan is created and with out knowing if he assign the same Sales order number system should block it.
Is there any solution for this
Regards
Shashi

Shashi,
Couple of important things to be noted.
1. How could you determine if the first user linking the SO to the Production Order really selected the correct one. It could be very much possible that the same Sales Order linked to the another Prod Order is actually correct.
Unless you have a business validation procedure to check this it will not be of much value to prevent duplicated.
You can read about the transaction notification stored procedure using the link below
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1011154
This transaction notification is a stored procedure available in a company database and can be accessed from SQL Server Management Studio

Sending Production Plan to Vendor / Supplier

Dear Sir
Ours is a production unit (assembly line) we use lot of components. So I want to know is it possible to send plan directly to Vendor by E-mail from SAP.
Thanks & Regards
Vishal

Hi Vishal,
Sending out Production Plan to Vendors by email is possible but given nature of dataset involved (not documents in form of Production Orders) it may not be a very feasible option. Instead either develop a report to extract relevant Production Plan data and send it out as email.
But better look at Supply Chain Collaboration applications like SNC Supply Network Collaboration that has Outsourced Manufacturing processes catering to these kind of supplier / vendor collaboration requirements.
Hope this helps.

Daily Production Plan query changes

Dear Experts,
I was tried to do a daily production plan query, but i need to add one more feild in the below query, (ie) In sale order Document, Row level feild of Quantity ( RDR1,Quantity) should be in that query,
SELECT T0.[ItemCode],T1.[ItemName], T0.[PlannedQty] as 'Planned Qty', T0.[DocNum] as 'Doc No', T0.[PostDate], T0.[OriginNum] as 'Sale Order No', T0.[CardCode], T0.[CmpltQty] as 'Completed Qty' FROM OWOR T0 join OITM T1 on T0.Itemcode = t1.ItemCode WHERE T0.[PostDate] >='[%0]' and T0.[PostDate] <='[%1]'
Plz help me.
Thanks and Regards,
Manikandan

Hello Manikandan,
You can add the sales order into the production order, but you should now: there is no connection defined between sales order lines and production order, only the item code can be used as reference to sales order lines
I mean:
*if you have the same item in sales order lines in different position the query always multiplies the result. *
So you can join the sales order header for Origin Number and DocNum, and sales order lines by Itemcode
SELECT
     T0.[ItemCode],T1.[ItemName], T0.[PlannedQty] as 'Planned Qty', T0.[DocNum] as 'Doc No', T0.[PostDate],
     T0.[OriginNum] as 'Sale Order No', T0.[CardCode], T0.[CmpltQty] as 'Completed Qty',
     T3.[Quantity] [Sales order Qty], T3.LineNum [Sales order Postion]
FROM
     OWOR T0 join OITM T1 on T0.Itemcode = t1.ItemCode
     left outer join ORDR T2 on T0.[OriginNum] = T2.[DocNum]
     left outer join RDR1 T3 on T2.[DocEntry] = T3.[DocEntry] and T3.[ItemCode] = T0.[ItemCode]
WHERE T0.[PostDate] >='[%0]' and T0.[PostDate] <='[%1]'

Daily production plan in manufacturing shop floor

Hi, we want to generate 2 different weekly production plans based on 1) roh available 2)customer delivery date. pls advise how to generate same.

Hi
There is no planning method in SAP based on raw materials. if you know how much finished product can be made out of one raw material then you can use SOP and create a prodcution plan as inactive version.
For customer delivery date, if you know the cumulative requirements then place this quantity in SOP as the sales plan with delivery dates and create synchronous production plan and save it as another inactive version.
Once you take a decision on which version to be used you can copy the version to a active version and transfer to demand managment and run mrp which creates planned orders.
Make sure you use backward scheduling in the material master
Thanks

SAP PP (Production Planning) Master Data Definitions

SAP PP (Production Planning) Master Data Definitions and Transaction codes.

SAP PP (Production Planning) Master Data Definitions
• Factory Calendar
• Material Master
• Resource • Bills of Material (BOM)
• Production versions
• Master recipe
Factory Calendar: The factory calendar is defined on the basis of a public holiday calendar. The public holiday and factory calendar is a central module in the SAP System. It is assigned to a specific plant during the initial system setup and therefore used in many areas (e.g. in Logistics and in Human Resources) in the system.
Material Master: Material master comprises if all the basic data of the material for each department. The data covers all the relevant information required for the transactional flow e.g. sales, Planning, Production, Quality, Purchasing, Costing etc. Material master covers all the descriptive and control data and the flow of information depends on fields maintained within it. The integration of all material data in a single database object eliminates redundant data storage. Material Masters are created once and can be changed or extended whenever required
Bill of Materials: Bill of Materials or commonly called BOM is a formally structured list of components that make up a product or assembly. The list contains the material number of the component together with the quantity and unit of measure. BOMs are used in their different forms in various situations where a finished product is assembled from several component parts or materials. Resources: Resources are production facilities and persons involved in a production process that have capacities. They are subdivided into categories to specify their suitability for certain purposes or their use in certain processes
Product Versions: A production version determines which alternative BOM is used together with which task list/master recipe to produce a material or create a master production schedule. For one material, we can have several production versions for various validity periods and lot-size ranges. The production version determines the following:
• The BOM alternative for a BOM explosion.
• The task list (master recipe) and any alternate, as needed.
• Lot-size restrictions and validity parameters.
Master Recipes: A master recipe defines the following data that is required for the production of materials without relating to a particular order: processing steps, resources, material components, and control information for the process control level. Master Recipe enables to plan the production of materials (products). Therefore, Master Recipe is used as a template for process orders and run schedules as well as a basis for product costing. In a Recipe
• The Phases (work steps) to be carried out during production.
• The activities to be performed in the operations as a basis for determining dates, capacity requirements and costs.
• The use of materials during production.
• The use of resource.

How to implement the WIP in production planning module?

Hi Gurus,
Good afternoon! We are planning to Implement the WIP in Production Planning Module. Current set-up, we create production order and confirmed for all process in production transaction especially the consumption of raw materials and Goods receipt of FG from one Production order. We have two activity in production transaction. But we would like to separate the process per activity. Can we ask on how to separate the transaction or implementing the WIP? To create production order as semi-finished goods and one production order for final finished goods. We would like to ask for your expertise and advise on how to implement WIP in SAP PP that there is no duplication of manufacturing FG cost.
We would like also to know all FI entries per transaction to make sure there is no double entries in manufacturing cost of FG.
thank you,
