Regarding SOP
I have a BPP for mass processing of the transfer of of SOP data to
Demand Management, but the process does not function (MC8E).
Hi Narayan,
Mass processing will be used to transfer the SOP demand to demand management (operative planning... For this first you have to create demand for products or products group from MC87 or MC83 transactions.
You need to define transfer profile in custmizing.
Create job from MC8D and in varianat give the input of info structure (S076) and define the transfer profile.
schedule this in background. the SOP demand will be transferred to MRP as per the selection made in variant and in transfer profile.
If you have any question the let me know.

hi brahmankar,
what to enter as info structure in MC35????
thx in advanceHi ,
I think ur not getting any values for avilable capacity and load.
If my assumption is correct, u have defiend interval of avilable capacity for 5 day a week, with out standard avilable capacity at caapcity view of workcenter.
Please check valid of avilable capacity it might have in the invalid period.
Plz check and comeback.
If you have maintained correct Scheduling paramenters in the Spro-pp-sop-resource levelling-scheduling parameters in this if you have maintained 01 the it is routing - if it is 03 then only it wil be against the profile.

Actual sales figures against planned figures
Hello,
I had a question regarding SOP. Can we have actual sales figures to appear against planned value in the information structure?. If so how do we accommodate it?
THis is so that the planner can see for the past year what has been the planned sales and what has been the actual sales.
Sincerely
AjiHi Aji
The actual sales figure can be appeared in planning type (MC8B) . Place the cursor on the sales key figue and goto Edit-.Actual data prev year (Ctrl+F1)

Rough cut planning & available capacity
I need one clarification, in the rough cut planning, the existing load
is not considering for available capacity.It is considering only from
the resource capacity.
E.g : Avaialble capacity of for Resource A (today) is 24 hr
One Order is created and released for 4 hr with Resource A
As per that now my available capacity of the resource is only 20 hr
In SOP planning view, it showing as 24 hrs.
And If i am running the SOP today at 1400hrs for calculating the
resource capacity. Practically my avaialble capacity is 10hrs. But
in the system it showing as 24hrs.
How to capture the above both requirements?
2. Through roughcut planning we can able calcualte the cost, material and
PRT availability also. But it is not coming the the SOP screen.
Is it any configuration i missed out? Help me out

Available capacity means the total capacity available for use in production. Presence of an requirement will not reduce the available capacity.
Regarding SOP. Check for the starting time of the order or requirement. See if you can schedule from the current time instead of start of the day.

Issue in MC74 screen(SOP )
Hi,
We are using strategy 40 for a material-XYZ. We are trying to transfer the Planning data using MC74 to Demand management for the month of May,June,July etc for this material- XYZ,we are getting error - "Requirement was already available". Infact there is no requirement in the MD63 and as well as in MD04 for the material-XYZ. May i know what could be the reason why we cannot transfer Planning data to Demand Management?. Please advice.
Thanks in advanceHi Aditya,
As you asked please find the brief details about SOP.
"S&OP is the result of monthly planning activities. It is usually based on an Annual Operations Plan (AOP) that acts as the company's annual target in terms of sales and supply. Therefore, the sales and operations plans are a means to gradually accomplish the AOP targets - by linking monthly sales and marketing planning directly to the operations side of a business."
The discrete steps are as follows-
Demand
Demand chain
Demand chain Management
forecasting
Supply chain Demand
Please revert with your understanding.

Rough cut planning in SOP for resource levelling
Hello,
I am trying rough cut planning in SOP.
I have created rough cut planning profile for a product group by using MC35.
The task list exits for the product group.
In task list , work centre is maintained and the same is given while creating the rough cut profile.
This product group contains some part number.
When I try Views--->capacity situation -> rough cut planning--->show.
System gives error that -
> No resource load found.
<u><b>Diagnosis given by system is as follows,</b></u>
This situation may be caused by one or more of the following:
No PP task list (rough-cut planning profile, rate routing, or routing) corresponding to the Customizing selection criteria has been defined for this material/product group at this scheduling level.
Resources planning has not been configured appropriately in Customizing.
The information structure which you are planning has not been configured appropriately in Customizing.
System Response
No capacity load could be determined.
Procedure
1. Check that a PP task list exists for this material/product group.
2. Check that a lot size range has been maintained in the PP task list.
3. Have your systems administrator check and, if necessary, change the resources planning settings in Customizing for Sales & Operations Planning (the steps "Scheduling levels" and "Routing selection").
4. Have your systems administrator check that capacity planning has been defined for this information structure in Customizing.
Please let me know how to maintain the resource planning settings for scheduling level and routing selection.
Waiting for your reply.

Ravindra DeokuleHi Ravindra,
You can use t.code mc84 to create a product group.
Pl follow the following steps to do SOP with product group.
1. Create a Product group in tcode MC84.
Enter a percentage for material say X & Y to be produced. X 40% & Y 60%. Total qty will be split in the ratio as per the %.
2. Create Production Plan in tcode MC81.
Enter the sales plan qty.
Then goto menu,edit & choose create Prodn Plan synchronus to sales.
3. Create Rough cut Planning Profile in tcode MC35.
4. Enter the Status ,Usage & lot size.
5. Choose resources tab & then choose work center & enter work center name which you consider as a bottle neck & then enter the unit of measure as 'min'.
6. Use MC82,
Choose inactive version and select your version.
then goto menu->views> capacity situation>show
7.Check for over loads & adjust your qty acordingly.once the load becomes 100 % save.
8. Change the inactive version to Active version in tcode MC78.
ie in the version enter the inactive version & in the target version enter'A00'
9.In mc82 choose active version, you can see that the plan is activated now.
10.In the menu choose extras & transfer to demand mgmnt.
11.You can see the requirement in the md62 transaction.
12.Then run mrp.
Also regarding the unit of measure in t.code mc35,
If you select your resource as 'workcenter' & choose min or hour & then you enter 1(eg) in the first field against the work center. This means it takes 1 min or hour to produce 1pc(base quantity) in that particular workcenter(bottleneck workcenter)
Reg: Capacity calculation in mc87,follow the eg as above.Enter 1 min as time & base qty as 1 in mc35. Then check in mc87, you will get the load in %. ie if your work center is permitted to work for 8 hours/day & you pass a production plan of 480, then your load will match for 100%.

Rough Cut Planning Profile in SOP
Hi,
Need an input on the Values keyed in to the Rough cut capacity profile? Is there any documentation on the same?
I have maintained the Time span as 1 work day and the basse quantity as 1. In the resource table, i have keyed in the work center and the unit as H. Now when i maintain a value of 1 under the first day the capacity req is 1 in SOP but when i maintain a value of 1 in day 1 and day 2- the capacity requirement doubles

Error while creating Product Group in SOP
HI Gurus,
When I am trying to create the product group in SOP in MC84 , I get follwoing error.
"Product group cannot be created (batch input error 7) Message no. MA218"
how to slove this?
Thanks in advance.
RGRajiv,
Basically if there are mismatch in the Field selection and fields visible in MC84 you would get this error.
The workaround suggested by SAP is to create a product group using MM01 with material type PROD, latter on using the change product group transaction MC86 you can assign its members.

Creating a new product group for SOP
We have SOP set up in our system .When i am trying to create a product group with material as a member , i am getting error , what is this ? Any help
The field is defined as a required field; it does not contain an entry
Message no. MG144
Procedure
Transfer a suitable value.
If the field is the material group or unit of weight, and the field is not ready for input, check whether the material is locked. If it is locked, you cannot extend the Purchasing view or the Sales view. If either of these views needs to be extended, the material must first be unlocked. This can be done only by a user with special authorization. Contact your system administrator.
Note
For information on locking and unlocking material master records, see the SAP library documentation Material Master (LO-MD-MM) -> Locking Material Master Records.Hi,
Check mandatory field and sales and purchase view in material master.
Please check authorization for it aslo.
Go to tcode OMSFIX and un check if any field is checked for lock relevant.
this will open the field in MM01 and you can see the required field,
You can unlock the material in transaction MM02 (You will find "Unlock" icon in the application tool-bar).
Please refer this thraed,

DMS document output in SOP report
Hi all,
I want to OUTPUT a DMS document in SOP Report template. But it is not reflecting in my SOP report though I have fullfilled the prerequisites.Here are my steps that i carried out
1) I have linked the DMS doc. in a value assignment in user defined text.
2) The DMS document type is SBV.
3) The required document indicator tick is alos ensured in specify user defined text types in BASIC DATA & TOOLS in customizing.
3)It is also ensured that the EHS <> DMS doc types are linked in customizing.
4) I put the symbol in wwi report template under GESTDHEADE HEADER User-defined text .
But when I run the preview (cg42) the space where I have assigned the symbol is blank.
I even tried to put my required data in Long text in user defined text tab assigning REMARKS as user defined text type but there is no output in REPORT when i carry out preview.
Requesting your comment what shall be the cause of this .
Regards,
Ashish pradhanHello all
the document type SBV should not be used or used only carefully regarding this. I recommend to use a customer specific document type. SBV is related to WWI report templates. Furthermore make sure that generation variant fits usage of data record in which you have set up the document which is located in the user defined text (Active indicator of usage must be set). I know cases in the area of access problemes so that the WWI could not retrieve the user defined document. PLease make sure that you have "checked" WWI layout without error (WWI Check).
PLease check this:
if you have uploaded e.g. an rtf file and created a value assignment and you have uploaded the document to be stored in the user defined text than the document is "there". That means: in this process the SAP EH&S process generate a new unique id which should show up in the user defined text (there somthing like this should show up: SBV WWI 0000111223 numbers...)
Using this unique ID you can check if the document is really in DMS available. Furthermore depending on the EH&S release (support package etc.) you could check this. If you "click" with the mouse key on the unique id (refer above) the SAP EH&S system should upload directly to your client computer the document and start immediatly the corresponding application (e.g. word etc.) . In doing so you can check if the document is "really" there
May be you need to check further DMS customizing. E.g. depending on the document you have used in upload there is a missing link to the "type" of document. .E.g. the EXCEL macro regarding standard SAP output variant links to I believe a seperate document type
Hope that helps
With best regards

SOP report goes into word repaginating
hi
I am facing a word repaginating porblem while opening my SOP report.
I have assigned a DMS doc with doc type SBV to the specification work (it is a word .docx file) . I created the report SOP from the specification work bench and it is in realsed state also. But when I tried to view the released report either from CG54 or report management , the word document that is opening goes into the state of word repaginating . It remains in the same status till i cancel the action. But during this process the system outputs the report template perfectly to the extent of report body but the part where i have assigned the DMS doc show some wierd symbols.
If I try to view the report from 'report from template' functionality in CG02 or from cg42 I get the output of dms document as well along with the report template.
Regards,
AshishHi Ashish,
Here you would not only have to take care of the document type settings of SBV, but also of SBR and SBE.
Document type SBR (not SBV) is used for generating reports for specifications using released report templates and contain expanded specification data. While, SBV is for only defining the report template in which you use symbols of various symbol types to define the layout of your reports. The link between report templates and report generation variants enables you to generate reports (SBR) and final reports (SBE).
Hence, the problem may be of incorrect settings in document types SBR and SBV. Check the document status and workstation application settings of these doc types based on SAP note # 0000995736.
Hope, above solves your problem.

How to make rolling plan at any point of time for 12 months using SOP/LTP?
Hi Gurus,
I am configuring an MTS scenario where the client desires that at any point of time, when he does planning, system should do a rolling plan. For example, let us say that we first do the planning in Jan for Jan to Dec. When he does the planning again in Feb, it should become a plan for Feb to Jan and so on. Is this possible in SOP/LTP? Please advise. Thanks.
Regards,
SBYes. This is normal for SOP, but what are looking to achieve using LTP? Is this rolling plan operative, or simulative?
