PS Scheduling with subnetworks (PM orders)
Hello all,
I am currently working on a project where I am helping a client use Project systems to manange a plant shutdown. The requiment is to schedule the many maintanance orders (300 +) using project systems to see the critical path and the to manage capacity of the work centers to fit into the time box for the shutdown. I have set up a project down to the network activity level representing the high level process and have started linking PM orders through the additional data b tab, but I have a couple questions.
1.) When you create the link on the additional data B tab. You get a pop up box that will automaticly derive the Project definition and WBS element. Should you link it to all through or should you only select one of the PS objects. What purpose does it serve to show all three or just one PS object?
2.) In terms of scheduling when i attach a PM order to a network and activity it will adapt the basic date of the network activity, however it does not change the day of the network activity to be the same period of the orders attached. I am using buttom up scheduling on the network. Example. I have a network activity with a basic date and duration of 1 day. If I attach a PM order which would require 3 days to complete the network still shows only 1 day. When I reschedule the project should it change the dates on the parent objects? i can see the changed dates when I run a CN41 structure report, but if I look in planning board without the PM orders I don't see the true duration.
Any help would be appreciated on this subject. I am not a PM person. Not sure if this is an issue with a control key.
Hello,
I think Abdul has answered your second question. As far as your first question goes, kindly note that the three fields in the Additional data tab serve a specific purpose:
1) Project definition field is used only for reporting and is something that you will not change.
2) The WBS field is derived from the network activity to which the PM order is being linked. Please note that this field is used to determine the special stock requirement i.e. the WBS from which the PM order will request reservation of goods provided the special stock indicator is used (this WBS can be changed for example a situation where you have done all procurement of the project on a central WBS as project stock and would like to re-direct all PM order reservations to this single WBS).
3) The Network is used to link the actual PM order and is used to help schedule it in case the network dates change.
Hope this clarifies.

Collective Planned orders Scheduling for lower level orders with reference to the Superior order
Hi All,
Collective planned order scheduling.
I have been trying to reschedule the superior planned order and i was expecting the lower level planned orders to reschedule based on the superior planned order.
My problem is
when i try to reschedule the superior planned order the system is not rescheduling the lower level planned orders.
For example if i change the basic finish date of superior planned order as 30/09/2014 and reschedule the planned order it is only scheduling the header planned order and the lower level planned order is not scheduling.
Could some one tell me why this is not happenning at planned order level.
As the rescheduling of collective order will work at production order level but for some reason it is not happening at planned order level(as there is no option available to do so).
Please give your thoughts on this asap.
Mahee.Hello Mahee
Please observe that your system is working as designed. Planned orders are scheduled independently, even when they are part of a network/collective order. Note 152319 explains the planned order scheduling in detail and it provides the following information:
* No scheduling of overall networks is executed although a directly manufactured component is assigned.
Note that no scheduling of the overall network is executed for planned orders. For the components requirements dates are determined. In order to cover them, planned orders are created in the next MRP run. Since the requirements are not managed using the exact time, the results of the planned order scheduling and of a scheduling of the overall network of the converted collective order can differ.

Pls tell me elaborately .
Also Pls explain me about service order and when can i go for service order . whether it is restricted to AMC ?
Pls explain me elaborately.
pls explain me steps for creating contract or scheduling agreement and service order..........................
points to be rewarded.
Regards,
Girish.Hi,
Contract is outline purchasing agreement where you have a contract with the vendor,may be a for a predetermined quantity or predefined value. So everytime you need the matl, you need to make PO ref the contract asking for the delivery of the matl. In such instance when PO is ref with contract its called contract release orders or call off orders. So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME51,ME21 & MIGO,
Scheduling agreement is a long term purchase agreement, where you will keep issuing the delivery schedules whenever there is a change in requirement or at predetermined time intervals. The delivery schedule can be on hour/daily/weekly/monthly basis. SA is also an agreement with the vendor for the supply of matl, may be a quanity or value. The delivery dates will be maintained in ME38 ref the SA which are called delivery schedules.So you can maintain the delivery schedule and communicate the vendor on Forecase basis or JIT basis. And when you need some more matl then will only create SA deliveries using ME38. SA could be of 2 types:- without release documentation-system will transmit the delivery info to the vendor once you save the document.
With release documentation- after creating the delivery schedules you need to create SA release using ME84.So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME38 & MIGO,
Service order or service PO is created with item Category "D" and an account assignment category as per ur requirement. U can not enter ur material here only u have to maintain short text of material. Example: You want to clean the boiler and u given contract to your Vendor. Vendor sends quotation mentioning that Rs.100/hr/Man head. Now how you will measure the cleaning activities of furnace? You can pay to contractor based on the hourly basis/ man head spent in cleaning activities. So in this case create the Purchase Order mentioning "Cleaning" in the short text in Item overview(Acc assignment ' K' or C or P and Item category 'D) and item details " Man Head" Service No , Gross price - Rs.100.00 and unit - hour ( or pick from Service master) and Quantity-number of hours spent by all man head.
The steps to create Service PO are:
1) Maintain Item Category as D & account assignment such as cost center Kor slaes orderC
2) Keep material code field blank.
3) Enter description of service & other fields in the PO Item Overview level. Press Enter.
4) System will prompt you to maintain services at Item Level. Maintain your service master number / service description & other fields (quantity / rate /)
5) Save the PO.

Dates and quantities copied from Scheduling Agreement to Delivery Order
Hi everybody,
we're experiencing a problem with copying control for dates/quantities between Scheduling Agreement and Delivery Order.
If we define a Forecast Delivery Schedule with more lines/dates into a Scheduling agreement, when I create a Delivery Order with reference to a specific date the system always copies the first forecast delivery schedule date, disregardful the date specified in the selection criteria for delivery creation and with the fact that this could have already been carried out.
Here's an example:
Forecast Delivery Schedule into Scheduling agreement:
(Date) 12.03.07 (Quantity) 10 TO
(Date) 13.03.07 (Quantity) 12 TO
(Date) 14.03.07 (Quantity) 15 TO
When delivery has to be created with reference to Scheduling Agreement, the system doesn't about the date specified in selection parameters (e.g. 14.03.07) and copies the quantity of the first forecast delivery schedule line (10 TO).
Does anybody knows how to maintain Copying Control for dates and quantities between Scheduling agreement to Delivery Order?
Thank you!
LucaDear Pattanaik,
check data transfer from copy controls.for this T-code is VTLA
here select your doc type and select details and check also item.check inside both types data trasfer wich is assigned change from this item to header.your problem may ve coming from here.
hope this will helps you

Printing last delivery date in schedule lines for sales order
Hi!
We should create a sales order with more then one schedule line. This schedule lines are only for internal use (only to plan our production) and not for printing on the sales order paper. Only the last line is the real delivery date which should be printed on the sales order paper. Now I'm searching for a solution to print only this schedule line.
Have anyone a good idea?
Thanks
MarkusHi,
Select <required fields> from VBEP
into table <itab>
where vbeln = <order number>.
sort itab by posnr etenr descending.

Issue in schedule lines on sales order
Hi all,
While creating a sales order, system is creating schedule lines after two days of order creation. I want that schedule lines should be created for the same date.
Please suggest that what should I do for this?
Please respond.
Best Regards,
AI.hi,
check whether any delivery scheduling is been maintained
IMG>SALES AND DISTRIBUTION>BASIC FUNCTION>DELIVERY SCHEDULING AND TRANSPORTATION SCHEDULING>MAINTAIN DURATION
choose shipping point and remove the "Loading time w.days" and "Pick/pack time wrkdys" if maintained any
choose route and remove "transit lead time"
now try with new sales order

Regarding the Delivery schedule item in Production order
Hi Gurus,
Kindly can you let me know what are the settings to be done for getting the delivery schedule line number in the production order along with the sales order and item number for a MTO scenario.
Regards
AnandIf you're working with stg. grp 20, it should do what you're looking for.
If you're not sure, do this in your sandbox -> assign the stg. grp in material master, create a SO for this material, run MRP, convert the planned order to production order & verify the results.
To know more about this stg. grp you can go thru SAP help or just do a search in this forum or maybe wait for someone to paste the links for you. -
Ignore the number of schedule lines in sale order item when run MRP
Dear All,
I have a problem when I create production order (discrete manufacturing)
When I create a sale order with one sale order item and 3 schedule lines for this sale order item.
After that, I run MRP for this sale order, what I get is 3 planned orders for 3 schedule lines. It means that I will have 3 production orders for 1 sale order item.
I want create one production order for one sale order item whatever the number of schedule lines in sale order item.
I think I have to config in MRP. Please help me.
Thanks in advanceDear
Check in OPPQ then look in Master data Availability Check & strategy for material also check whether u have maintained strategy for same material and see did u extended sales views for other material
As u said 3 schedule lines for this sale order item check whether u have extended sales views for next material

Dedicated scheduling of a planned order having a fixed activity
Hi Gurus,
We're using PP/DS Optimizer with Total Delay Costs objective function, following a Backwards Scheduling strategy in order to Reduce Premature Scheduling. Order activities are then scheduled as close as possible from the requirement dates. However we would wish to apply a forward scheduling strategy to the orders having a fixed activity, but starting from the existing order planned start date instead from the system date, i.e:
Requirement X due on 18.01.2012
Output firmed planned order Y with 3 activities (A1, A2, A3), A2 beeing fixed
Optimization result with a Backward scheduling strategy:
A1 09.11.2011
A2 18.11.2011
A3 17.01.2012
Optimization result when Backward scheduling setting is unchecked
A1 NOW
A2 18.11.2011
A3 17.01.2012
The business requirement we d'like to achieve
A1 09.11.2011
A2 18.11.2011
A3 19.12.2011
It is not foreseen to fix A1 to bypass the problem, above example is only a basic example whereas there're multiple activities in between A1 & A2 in our real material PDS. Is there any way (even with another optimization run, or using in combination a Production Planning Run...) to achieve such a scheduling strategy?
BR,
Pascal.Hi,
To add further and to more precise, the issue is:
In CM01[or in any capacity evaluation tcode], In a particular maonths load[Period] the opeartion from different month is showing up.
For example: if Period[month] 06 is veiwed of a Workcenter load, a line[load appears], whose earliest date is in 7th month[01.07.2014].
I expected to see, only Workcenters scheduled in 6th month to show up in the load evaluation.
Please look at the screen shot.

Error in scheduling parameters for production orders
Hi Guys,
Greeting for the day u2026u2026u2026.
I am trying to create production orders creation for own order type ex MM01, but I am getting error message as u201C scheduling parameters are not defined for the order type u201C even though I have maintained following parameters as below,
Production scheduler -
xxxxx,

All operation in order will be reduce
Do not reduce,
Could any one light on this issue,
Thanks in advance,
MohanHi,
This error will come if you have not maintained Define scheduling parameters for production orders.
Check this order type whether linked with respective plant in OPU3.*And give production scheduler * mark ie, all.*
And in Define production scheduling profile - OPKP, link your order type in the page below.
In material master work scheduling view, input production sch profile or prod scheduler.

How to deactivate schedule line in sales order
hi friends,
how can i deactivate the schedule line in sales order so that we can deliver the sales order after the schedule date. i can uderstand that system is not allowing before schedule date. but what if i want to deliver after that.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Solomonhi,
this is to inform you that,
here you need to switch off:
schedule lines allowed
in schedule lines control data - remove or un check - availability/TOR
In SPRO - Availability Check settings.
but i have a question here:
what is the business logic.
do you want to do the same with all the sales orders or not.
please update the forum
then answer will be different

When i tried to make confirmation for Production Order through CO15 transaction , i receive the following error message “ Production scheduling profile for production order type 10 does not exist – SAP Message No.10085 “
In Work Scheduling view, Production Scheduling Profile is maintained as per OPKP only.
How to check whether production scheduling profile is maintained for relevant order type 10.
To do this , i went to OPKP & KOT2_OPA transactions but i don’t know how to check. I guide me through with a screen shot.
Also, pls explain about “Order Type 10” and how it is linked with material and order execution.
Looking for a detailed explanation with screen shots , since i am new to SAP.
Thanks With Regards,
Dinesh Kumar V.Hello Dinesh,
Please check the order type dependent parameter in OPL8 here you will get the Substitute Scheduler
Then go to OPCH and check valid production scheduling profile assign here as per OPKP to your production scheduler for your plant.
Production order have Order category as 10 Process Order 40 in standard SAP you can check this in OPJH.

Updating Scheduling data for Purchase Order
Hi,
I need a function module which can update the scheduling data for purchase order in EKET table. Normally we create Purchase Order as a reference from purchase requisition through BAPI_PO_CREATE1. That time it takes care of all the scenarios. But as per the requirement I want to create a PO which is created from more than one Purchase Requistions so I can't use the said BAPI. But still I am using this BAPI and after creation is completed I am updating the Requistions. The same scenario is taken care in ME59N, but I can't copy that code because of some requirements. So could any one please give me the idea to replicate the same functionality with any function module or other ways.
Thanks

Route Schedule in Third Party Orders
We have made the necessary setting for the determination of Route and Route Schedule, but unfortunately the route schedule is not getting picked in the Third party order, but it works wonderfully with outbound delivery orders...
Is there any other setting to trigger the RS for 3rd party orders? or is it that SAP doesnt support RS for 3rd party orders as there is no actual delivery happening?
Regards
RajDear Babu,
As, in Third-Party Orders, theres is no Material-Movement (shipping) from Plant; Route Schedule will not be applicable. Customer places an order on to you and you have placed an order to your vendor, who will directly deliver the goods to your customer.
Best Regards,
Amit.

System problem in the delivery schedules of a purchase order ?
hello to all,
I am creating a purchase order and displaying it (in smart form). what i am noticing is the system does not keep that entry of the delivery schedule(with itself) that has the same audit quantity and delivered quantity. why is this so and how to display that entry ?
suppose following r thr delivery schedules entries(against a material), while creating a purchase order..
PO Quantity of Material is 4
Delivery Schedules are:
Deliv Date SL Qty Stat Del Date GR Qty Open Qty
01.03.2006 1 01.03.2006 1
03.03.2006 2 03.03.2006 1 1
04.03.2006 1 04.03.2006 1
where,i believe, 'SL Qty' = Audit Quantity and 'GR Qty' is the Delievered Qty.
Now when i display these delivery schedules(thru a smart form) the first entry in the deliveryschedules does not get displayed.
Deliv Date SL Qty GR Qty
03.03.2006 2 1
04.03.2006 1 0
why does system deletes the entry whose audit qty is equal to the deliv qty ??
hope u all got it... Thanks for yur time..Hello,
