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.

Intergration of Production Planning with Plant Maintenance (SAP Modules)

Our SAP Implentation Consultants are creating work centres in Production Planning which are different to the workcentres in Plant Maintenance as follows.
Work Centres in PP
Mixing
Blowing
Filling
Packaging
Work Centres in PM
Mechanical
Electronics
Electrical
My observation is that in PM the work centres should be identical to PP work centres. whereas Mechanical, Electronics and Electrical should be configured as divisions or departments. The idea is that by having PM WC identical to PP WC the costing will be simplified.
looking forward to expert's advices, please

Unable to create a production plan and schedule on SAP B1

Hi,
I've been trying to figure out how to use SAP B1 to give me a production plan and schedule for quite some time now.... I have no problem in accessing my pending orders. There seems to be no option in my production tab to enter resource information! Would be great if you could possibly tell me how to figure this out.

Hi,
Without capturing the actual time of production orders, it is not possible to perform scheduling. You may create planned production order by based on theoretical time.
Only third party add-on fulfill your requirement.
Thanks & Regards,

SAP Production Planning

Hello evey one.Iam Prakash and Iam new to SAP world.I am intrested in SAP- PP.Can any one tell me a breif introduction about SAP-Production Planning( PP ). What is the flow of SAP PP and how it is integrated with other modules in SAP. I wiil be very thankfull for ur reply.

Hello Prakash,
Production Planning is core module of SAP.It is related to actual manufacturing and about its planning activities.
For any company it is focus point. It involves many sub process like SOP,Demand Management,MRP,MPS, LTP,Prodcution Order Creation, Capacity planning and Prodcution Order Execution.In PP module you have to maintain main master data like Material master,BOM,Routing,Work Center.Your accuracy to SAP transaction will be more only if you maintain master data properly and accurate.PP has integrated towards many module , but major is with SAP MM and SAP SD along with SAP QM.
To understand more detailed views on SAP PP , use following link.

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

Hello Marc and Sander,
I checked the document status and tested the link myself using a PC external to the SAP environment and did not have any problem. You do have to be logged in to do this. If you are not, you should see a page that will appear which says that a login is required to use that feature. On some occassions, users see an error message instead. I apologize for that.

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 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

in standared practies of (SAP) PRODUCTION PLANNING how maney G/L's has to be assigned and what are they.
thanks in advance.

HI
generally it depends on your production process. at the time of implementation, consultant maps as per the requirments given by FI team
for example if you have production stages like finished product(stage 1 ,stage 2) this willl have one GLs,other semifinished (stahes) will havwe GLs, RMs,and consumptions GLs,GRs GLS etc.

How I can map "Sales Target Planning" in SAP?

Hi All,
I am working in Sales & Marketing in a Logistic Service Provider Company.
Our Product is Container (in which RMG & other commodities are transported
via ship from/to all over the world). Our Sales Target is planned in yearly
basis on Quantity of Containers, Number of Buyers, Different Corridors,
Different Commodities etc etc. How we can map our Sales Target Planning in SAP?
Regards,
Syed Waseem Reza

Sir,
Can you please let us know the high level process flow you have already mapped? I am facing the same problem.... I am here delivering my existing process flow.
We didnu2019t go for any other special module of SAP
The General modules of SAP including
u2022     SD(Sales & Distribution),
u2022     MM(Material Management),
u2022     WM(Warehouse Management),
u2022     LE (Logistic Execution),
u2022     FI(Finance), CO(Controlling),
u2022     FA(Fixed Asset)
Basic Process Mapping:
u2022     SO(Sales Order) may create directly or against Qut(Quotation)
u2022     All SO line item will create the PR (Purchase Requisition)
u2022     Warehouse does the GR (Goods Receive) against PR indirectly SO.
u2022     Empty and Laden Container enters to Warehouse as a material received.
u2022     TO (Transfer Order) of Goods to the Bin Location
u2022     Creates the Outbound Delivery against GR.
u2022     Picking of Goods from WH Bin to Deliver Place
u2022     Packing of Goods to the Container as per Shipment.
u2022     Outgoing Invoice for collection against Outbound Delivery
u2022     Incoming Invoice for payment against Shipment Cost.
Management wants to give one sales target such as...
Year -SO-----Material Group---Material Group
--(20' Container)-----(40' Container)
2009-----10,0004,000--
2,000
and in the end of the year, Management wants to see the see the following report.
Year      Targeted      Achieved     Target(20') Achieved(20') Target(40') Achieved(40')
--SOSO-----
2009-----10,0008,0004,0002,0002,000--
1,500
For this I have to store my sales target in any of SAP document, because i have already all the Achieved information in my existing system, because material groups are keeping in the Shipment/Packing phase of the process, So i can easily make the report, but i cant get the Target as I don't have any place to store the same.
Can anybody help me to proceed?

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,
weldin angelo

Product Costing and Production Planning

Hi,
Is Product Costing absolutely required before implementing Production Planning, specifically PP orders? My client does not want to plan costs or need any cost estimates. They want to use a PP order to check availability for a BOM, and then issue it out to an external vendor for services. After this material is processed by the external vendor, he would ship it back and we would be doing a goods receipt at the parent level of the BOM. The whole purpose of this is to get the accurate price of the BOM parent which would include all service costs. This parent would finally be sold via the regular SD sales order process. Our Logisitics consultant suggested that the only way this could be accomplished is a PP order. All this looks okay, but he also mentioned that a PP order cannot work without Product Costing and the process cant be accomplished CO-PC. I am unable to grasp why SAP would force us to have costing when the client doesnt need any cost estimates, planning etc. Could any one please tell me if we need CO-PC for this scenario?

Dear SAPFicon,
Technically, to run PP without using product cost planning would cause a lot of problems during business process of production order. Because, once a production order is created then the data structured is freezed in the PO and if there is any missing data it will cause errors. Any errors in production order would stop the following transactions. We never know what would be the error level of the production order. The worst case, the production or should be cancel and start it all over again.
But by using product costing or product cost planning, this is a preliminary step to prevent and eliminate any error of the products tobe produced.
So, ideally, there is one person in charge to ensure that the products which be produced in the production orders are free of error.
So, the product costing is an integrated module that take data from variouse module such as PP, MM, CO, HR.
The product costing use the Logistic master data such as folllowing;
1. Bill of material
2. Routing
3. Work center
4. Material master
How you can say, that running PP without PC will run, while the to run the smooth production order, you need to mandatory parameter in Material Master that belong to Costing area.
Without having product costing, I can assure that your client will trap in a lot of troubles with their business process.
Please see the online documentation for product costing for a better overview or you are welcome to ask again

Irhasni

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
