Regarding Quota Arrangment

Dear Gurus,
I have to activate quota arrangement in our organization. I have done the following steps to active the quota arrangement, 1)Activated the Quota arrange usage in material master.
2).Activated the Source list in material master. 3)Created the product requirement
4).Maintained the quota arrangement for Vendor X and Vendor Y 50 percent accordingly
5).Material requirement planning - MRP run for particular product
As per the quota arrangement in this stage PR should create for Vndr X and Vndr Y. But it is not happing.
Your answer will be highly appreciated.
Reg/ Shankar G.

Dear All,
Thanks for your valuable replies; I have done the quota arrangement successfully.
The following functions are done to achieve the goal.
u2022     I have created the info record for both vendors.
u2022     Activated the Quota arrange (3) usage in Material Master (Purchasing)
u2022     Activated the source list-purchasing
u2022     Maintained the quota arrangement thru MEQ1 for particular material
u2022     I have assigned 50% for 2 vendors
u2022     We have to maintain Lot size data as a u201CFSu201D, fixed lot size field enter sum Value and also enter the rounding
                     value.   Eg- if you enter the fixed lot size 5000, you can enter the rounding value 2500. Then 2 PRu2019s will as per our
                      quota arrangement.

Help Regarding Quota Arrangement

Hi Gurus...........
Could u pls explain the importance of Quota Arrangement MEQ1??like whats the use of this??etc
and also in Tcode MEQ1 what values to maintain like in Item ie
QUOTA,IN %,PPL,VER....etc pls explain me in detail
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi Veeranna,
MEQ1 is used for maintaining Quota arrangement. By maintaining Quota, we can split the requirements based on quota among vendors.
You need to maintain the vendor and the quota, and procurement type etc. If the material is supplied by the plant then maintain them in PPL.
Hope this helps.

SNP quota arrangement with fixed lot size

Hi all,
i have a question regarding quota arrangement for external procurement in snp heuristic. Whe have 2 sources of suppy created by info record. The quota is 25% for the first and 75% for the second one. In product master there is maintained a fixed lot sice of 500.000. Im wondering that the snp heuristic creates 2 requisitions of 500.000 for each sos at the same day. So we get an serios excess. Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Christian

Hi,
thanks for reply. Ok, normally net requirement calculation works properly. In case of a shortage the heuristic shall apply an receipt with the fixed lot size wich is maintained in material master. However, in out particular case it generates the double receipt quantity which is not needed at the receipt date.
The heuristic should do the following:
Day 01 Stock 100
Day 02 DepDmd 20
Day 03 DepDmd 20
Day 04 DepDmd 20
Day 05 DepDmd 20
Day 06 DepDmd 20
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 1!!
Day 08 DepDmd 20
Day xx PurReq 100 !! Source 2!!
and not:
Day 01 Stock 100
Day 02 DepDmd 20
Day 03 DepDmd 20
Day 04 DepDmd 20
Day 05 DepDmd 20
Day 06 DepDmd 20
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 1!!
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 2!!
Day 08 DepDmd 20
In this example 100 would be the fixed lot size from material master.
Best regards,
Christian

How to calculate the quota base quantity in quota arrangement?

Hi all,
As we all know, when a new supplier is added in the quota arrangment, we take the help of quota base qunatity so that the new supplier does not get any unfair advantage over the existing suppliers. Would you please help me on how to calculate the quota base quantity or on what basis the quota base quantity is calculated?*
Regards,
Ranjan

Dear,
Quota arrangement divides the total requirements generated over a period of time among the sources of supplied by assigning a quota.
Quota u2013 quota is equal to a number and its represents the proportionate of requirements. Total quota of all the vendors is equal to 100% of requirements.
This quota arrangement is also specific to material and plant level.
Quota rating = quota allocate quantity + quota base quantity / quota.
Quota based quantity used only when a new vendor introduced.
In the as on date situation, the minimum quota ratings will considered as preferred vendor.
The 2 vendors has 2 same quota rating, the vendor who is having the highest quota will considered first.
In the running quota, a new source of supply is included. (In situation of short supply) including a new source not means to reduce the quota for existing.

Assign Source of Supply User Exit with Quota Arrangements in ME57 and ME56

Hi there,
We are using Quota Arrangements to define Vendor rebate levels and we have enabled User Exit EXIT_SAPLMEQR_001 to provide a more informative popup to replace standard Source of Supply popup as need to display current allocation quantities and % allocation fulfiled.
This User Exit is invoked during Assign Source of Supply during PReq processing (More precisely during Assign Source of Supply in ME51n and Automatic Source of Supply in ME57 and ME56) which all works fine.
When used in ME51n and Source of Supply Assigned and PReq saved, the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is successfully updated with the relevant amount
When using ME56 or ME57 to Automatically Assign source of Supply via the PReq list, the User Exit is invoked correctly and on selecting Vendor and saving the PReq is update correctly, however the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is NOT updated with the relevant amount
I have searched SAP Notes and debuged with limited success but cannot find evidence as to why this difference is happening - I assume that it has something to do with User Exit but any advice gratefully received if anyone else has experienced this issue?

Created Purcahse requisition and purchase order.
But quanity with vendor percentages is not executing.
Regards.
Paramesh.
Advance Thanks.

Hi
Can you give more information. How you create the PR & PO manually or via MRP.
Quota arrangement works for automatic source determination and it has the highest priority.
Also Splitting quota is only possible with MRP.

Source determination with referance to quota arrangement

Dear all
I had created quota for vendor A & Vendor B for a material M100, I had also defined quota arrangement usage in SPRO ( 3),
While creation of PR for this material M100, I had selected the tick for source determination, But still system is not determining the source.
Here one more observation is if I create the info record the source is determined from info record & the details are updated in quota.
Can some one help me which other things I need to check, so that the source is automatically determined by system from quota arrangement.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Pravin

HI,
If MIGO is done for the P.O all the datas are updated in the Purchase order history.
When you are doing MIRO , it will take what you have entered in the MIGO only.

Multiple Requisition line itme for Quota arrangement

Hello
We are maintaining the quota arrangement master data .
The Purchase requisition is splitting in to two line items based on the demand and assigning the Vendor on it .
Is it the right way or some thing missing in the configuration
Please advice me
Thanks
Nick

Hi,
1) The creation of PR depends upon the lot size you have maintained in the material master record.
a) If you have maintained lot size as FX (Fixing & Splitting) & the splitting indicator is maintained for the lot size in customizing, then seperate PR will be generated for each vendor maintained in quota, with quantity alloted to the respective vendor as per quota arrangement & delivery date being as per requirement of the material (probably being same for all PRs).
b) If you are using other lot size (which does not have the splitting indicator) then one PR will be generated for each demand, which will be assigned to the first vendor in line as per quota arrangement. Next PR (probably after next MRP run) will be assigned to another vendor which will be next vendor as per the quota arrangement.
2) Regarding firming, these PRs will not be firmed automatically. If required, you will have to firm the same manually.

Prashant

Quota Arrangment

Dear All,
Can anybody define me the process of quota arrangement & its advantages.
How i can map it befor/after the MRP is carried out .
Regards,
Gs Kothari

Hi
Quota arrangements allow you to define target percentages and distribute them between two or more purchasing contracts. A quota arrangement ensures that a contract is guaranteed both a minimum sales volume and a percentage of the total purchasing volume of the product category or product. A quota arrangement has the highest priority in the sourcing process.

Quota arrangement

Hi
My requirement is if we want to procure material of 1000 kgs . It need to be distributed 50% of the order between two vendors.
I came to know that this can be done through Quota arrangement.
Could you please guide how system generates 2 orders for this one requirement for 2 vendors and what quota arrangement settings needed..
Please explain me step by step procedure since I dont know abt this process
Thanks
Jupudi

Hi,
You can maintain following fields -
1) Initial Screen - Material / Plant
2) Overview - Valid to / Minimum quantity above which the splitting will happen
3) Select line & then go to Item
4) Item Level -
     QAI - Blank
     P - Procurement type
     S - Special procurement type
     Vendor - Vendor Code
     PPI - Own manufacturing plant, if material is to be procured from in house
     Maximum Qty - Maximum qty, after which the quota arrangement is not valid
     Max. / Min. Lot Size - Maximum or minimum lots size for PRs
     Rounding Profile - Same as material master
     1x - Check if the vendor is to be considered only once during single MRP run
     Maximum Release Qty - Maximum quantity, which a vendor can supply during given time frame (for example - 1 Week / 1 Month)
     N / P - Specify time frame which applies to maximum release qty.
Hope this helps

Quota Arrangement in LTP

Hi Gurus
In LTP Business Process my requirement is like this
1) One Fert Material Contains one ROH in BOM of Qt1
2) The ROH contains 2 vendors
3) I want to give the quta of ROH in 40% and 60%
SO in LTP i need 2 planned orders for ROH even if i my requirment for Fert is single
Pl explain me the settings required for the same
K.Prabakaran

Hi,
In MEQ1 , pls check the foll.
1. Min Qty splitting - the minimum quantity that a lot must have in order to be apportioned among several sources of supply in the planning run.
Check whether order qty is more than this min qty.
2. Also check the valid from and to dates.
Allocation by quota using splitting quotas is only carried out via a requirement planning run, subject to the following preconditions:
Through the appropriate entry in the field Quota arrangement usage (on the MRP data screen 2 or Purchasing screen) it must have been specified that a quota arrangement is to be applied in the planning run.
Regards,
Sheik
The indicator for the splitting quota must be set for the the lot-sizing procedure used for materials planning purposes in Customizing.

Dear,
Quota Arrangements :
In simple words: Distributing the requirements quantity between potential source of suppliers (Vendors) - basing on their order fulfillment capacity.
In business terminology:
Quota arrangements allow you to define target percentages and distribute them between two or more purchasing contracts. A quota arrangement ensures that a contract is guaranteed both a minimum sales volume and a percentage of the total purchasing volume of the product category or product. A quota arrangement has the highest priority in the sourcing process.
Quota Arrangements
Quota Arrangements means a mechanism enabling the system to compute which source of supply to assign to a requirement for a material.
If a material can be obtained from various sources of supply, each individual source of supply can be allocated a quota arrangement. The quota arrangement is valid for a certain period of time and specifies exactly how the receipts are to be distributed amongst each source of supply.
We can set the quota arrangement for in-house production as well as for external procurement. Setting quotas permits the automatic apportionment of a total material requirement over a period to different sources.
Sources of supply can be:
- an individual vendor or outline agreement
- another plant, from which material should be procured
- a production version
Quota Arrangement Usage
The quota arrangement facilitates the determination of the applicable sources of supply for the following at a certain time.
Purchase orders
Scheduling agreement delivery schedules
Planned orders
Purchase requisitions
Materials planning and control
In customizing activity, we specify for each material master record which quota arrangement rule is allowed. We group the usage combinations you have chosen under different keys.
We have to assign quota arrangement usage key to material master record in purchasing or MRP2 view (Maintaining Material Master Record T.Code MM01)
The quota arrangement usage determines whether a material is included in a quota arrangement and which operations lead to a quota arrangement.
We have to maintain the quota file for the material. Here we define the sequence of the sources of supply, the quotas per source of supply and numerous other parameters in the quota file.
Maintaining the Quota File
A quota arrangement file consists of quota arrangement records identifying the source (such as a vendor or an internal plant), the validity period, and the quota allocated to each source.
We can maintain the quota file. Following are the steps for maintaining this file.
T. Code: MEQ1
The initial screen for maintaining quota appears.
Enter the material number and the plant for the material that you want to use to maintain the quota file and choose. The header screen for maintaining quotas appears.
Enter the Valid to date for the quota arrangement item.
We can only define continuous validity periods for one material. In the first interval, the system sets the current date in the Valid from field. The Valid from dates of the other intervals are set continuously so that the day after the end date of the last quota item is set as the start date for the next item.
If we want to work with splitting quota arrangements, we will enter a minimum quantity here.
Double-click on the item to process.
The item screen now appears.
Here we will define the source of supply and other control parameters per item.
Allocating the source of supply to the quota item determines the procurement type that the procurement proposal receives. Therefore, we can specify via the quota arrangement that, for example, 75% of a material is produced in-house and the other 25% is procured externally.
Save entries.

Source determination,Quota Arrangement Process

Hi,
Plz tell me how to maintain Source determination,Quota Arrangement.step by step

Dear,
QUOTA ARRANGEMENTS
If a quota arrangement exists for a material, it has the highest priority during source determination. Like source list, the quota arrangement facilitates the administration of sources of supply at plant level.
If you procure a material from different suppliers, you can assign a quota to each individual supplier. A quota arrangement applies to a certain period and specifies how the receipts should be distributed among each source of supply.
If a quota arrangement exists, this does not mean that the quantity of a single manually created purchase requisition is automatically apportioned among different sources. In such case, the entire quantity of the requisition is assigned to one source u2013 the source that is next in line receive the relevant order.
Before you can maintain a quota arrangement item with the procurement type external procurement, a source of supply (info record and / or outline agreement) must exists.
Create quota arrangement:
LOGISTICS u2013MATERIAL MANAGEMENT u2013 PURCHASING u2013 MASTER DATA u2013 QUOTA ARRANGEMNET u2013 MAINTAIN.
Specify number ranges for quota arrangement:
SAP IMG u2013 MATERIAL MANAGEMENT u2013 PURCHASING u2013 QUOTA ARRANGEMENT u2013 DEFINE NUMBER RANGES.
You must specify the business application for which quotation arrangement will be used, for example: in material planning or in purchase requisitions. You make this specification in QUOTA ARRANGEMENT USAGE filed, which is to be found in the plant-specific purchasing/materials planning data of the material master record.
Set quota arrangement usage indicator:
SAP IMG u2013 MATERIALS MANAGEMENT u2013 PURCHASING u2013 QUOTA ARRANGEMENT u2013 DEFINE QUOTA ARRANGEMENT USAGE.
System assign quota rating to each source by calculation as u2013 Quota rating = (quota allocated quantity + quota base quantity / quota).
ADDITIONAL ASPECTS OF SUPPLY SOURCE DETERMINATION
Quota arrangements also can be source of supply.
Quota arrangements for material requirements arising over a certain period divided up among different sources on basis of quota. Quota arrangements determine which source of supply is automatically assigned to a purchase requisition.
SOURCE DETERMINATION
The purpose of the source determination process is to automatically assign a source of supply to a purchase requisition, if source determination indicator set in the requisition header, the system searches for possible sources of supply for all the items of the requisition. Quota arrangements also can be source of supply.
In source list specify a preferred source as fixed for a certain period, the system suggest just only this source, even if other potential sources exists.
Quota arrangements for material requirements arising over a certain period divided up among different sources on basis of quota. Quota arrangements determine which source of supply is automatically assigned to a purchase requisition.
Source list record consists of the following:
1.Validity period u2013 Period of validity
2.Key source data u2013 Number of vendor and responsible purchasing organization or number and item of outline agreement.
3.Fixed source u2013 Within a validity period not more than one source should be flagged as fixed.
4.Procurement plant u2013 if the materials can be procured from a plant or another point within your firm, enter the plant number in PPl field and leave the field for the vendor number empty.
5.Blocked source u2013 To block a source. If you set Blocked indicator and enter only one validity period, the material is excluded from external procurement; that is, it cannot be ordered during this period.
6.Material requirements planning - You use MRP indicator to determine whether an automatic source determination process is carried out during the requirements planning run. The appropriate source is then automatically assigned to a purchase requisition, or scheduling agreement delivery schedule lines can be generated directly via planning run.
If an attempt is made to order a material subject to a source list requirement from a source that is not included in the source list, the standard system issues an error message with the text: Source not included in list despite source list requirement. You can change this to warning message.
If source list requirement defined for a plant, all materials in the plant level must be maintained with source list before procurement.
Analyze source list:
LOGISTICS u2013 MATERIAL MANAGEMNET u2013 PURCHASING u2013 MASTER DATA u2013 SOURCE LIST u2013 FOLLOW ON FUNCTIONS u2013 ANALYSE.
Define source list requirement at plant level:
SAP IMG u2013 MM u2013 PURCHSING u2013 SOURCE LIST u2013 DEFINE SOURCE LIST AT PLANT LEVEL.
Source lists can be created:
-Manually.
-Create from within an outline agreement u2013 on outline agreement overview screen, select an item for which you wish to enter source list record and choose ITEM u2013 MAINTAIN SOURCE LIST.
-Creation from with an info record u2013 you can enter vendor in the source list when creating or changing a purchasing info record. Choose EXTRAS u2013 SOURCE LIST. If the info record valid for entire purchase organization, you can create the source list for all plants of the organization in question. Choose the plant via GOTO u2013 PLANT.
-Automatic u2013 can generate by system automatically.
Create source list manually:
LOGISTICS u2013 MATERIAL MANAGEMENT u2013 PURCHASING u2013 MASTER DATA u2013 SOURCE LIST u2013 MAINTAIN/DISPLAY.
Generate source list automatically:
LOGISTICS u2013 MATERIAL MANAGEMENT u2013 PURCHASING u2013 MASTER DATA u2013 SOURCE LIST u2013 FOLOW ON FUNCTIONS u2013 GENERATE.
