Reorder Level Planning with Min. Lot Size

Hi All,
I am trying to configure MRP Run. I am maintaining following Data
1. Reorder Level
2. Maximum Stock Level ( stock beyond which PR cannot be raised or stock cannot be maintained.
3. Min Lot size (lot size of which PR should be raised.
can anybody please help.

Hi
Max.stock level can be use with lotsize HB not with VB. But you can use max.stock level and minimum lot size with reorder point planning.
Ex. Reorder point -10
Max. stock level - 20
Stock -9
When the stock level goes below 10, system will create a P.R to topup the stock value for 20.
Ex. Reorder point -10
Min.lot size - 5
Stock value - 9
When the stock level goes below 10 ie, 9 , system will create a P.R to topup the reorder point. But the min lot size is 5. So P.R will generate with quantity 5.

  • CTM Planning: How to Handle Min Lot Size Daily Resource Capacity?

    Hello,
    I am facing a situation where the Min Lot Size values require more than a days capacity of the Resource.
    Finite Planning CTM is skipping all demands.
    Example:
    Daily Resource Availability = 24 Hrs,
    Capacity Consumption per PPM = 1000 Kgs / 1 Hour.
    Min Lot Size =  50,000 Kgs
    Capacity requirement for the 50,000 Kgs = 50 Hrs
    Is there a way CTM can plan this?
    Thanks,
    Ran

    Yes the time buckets in CTM profile has nothing to do with this limitation...
    Nor does the infinite/finite setting.
    Basically its a limitation of how the resources are stored in livecache.
    You can not exceed the capacity for which the resource is stored...
    The only workaround is to define the resourcde in weekly time buckets by manually defining a capacity profile.
    I don't like this as every order will take a week...
    I am not aware of any other workaround...
    I have seen other clients take out the minimum lot size for SNP, then when cif transfer the order back to R/3, it is combined to 1 large order...

  • Min Lot Size and Rounding value

    Hello MM  Gurus
    need a small help!
    I m a bit confused regarding the  use of Min lot size and Rounding value in material master "MRP 1" view..
    can some body teach me a detailed functionlity for both..
    As both serve the purpose ..for e.g. my requirement is 7 and min lot is 10 system will create proc.proposal for 10
    in similar way if i use rounding value as 10 , then als system will create proc.proposal for 10 only even if requirement is 7.
    grateful if you could pl expain me the functionality of both...
    another query..if I use Min lot size in material master will the same will serve the puspose of  <b>min order qty ( maintained in PIRs)</b>
    i'lll appriciate with good reward points...thanks in advnace

    Helo Guys..
    Thanks for valuable inputs..
    i have assigned the appropriate rewards ..
    pl clear my this doubt also
    e.g. for a materials
    Min Lot size - 40
    Rounding value 25
    requirement is for - 35
    will it be 40 or 50 ..i understand 50..
    j
    ust anothe rquery..pl treat this separate issue..and separate rewards will be given
    <b>can I use max stock level w/o use of  lot size "HB"</b>
    e.g. if my max stock level is 80
    and min lot size is 30 and current stock is 60
    what'll be my proc proposal created by MRP , i dont want system to cross 60 stck,,

  • Help on Planning Calender and lot size procedure settings

    Hi Gurus,
    We have 2 different schedule at the moment for our PO Placing to our supplier :
    1. Planning Calendar D01 --> For Seafreight shipment, PO Placing on bi-weekly basis, every Monday and RDD (Request Delivery Date) is on Thursday (11 days after PO Placing)
    2. Planning Calendar D02 --> For Airfreight shipment, PO Placing on weekly basis, every Friday and RDD (Request Delivery Date) is on Wednesday (5 days after PO Placing)
    Now we have required to change the SEAFREIGHT process by having the PO Placing on weekly basis, every Monday and RDD (Request Delivery Date) is on Wednesday (9 days after PO Placing).
    Please let me know the step by step procedure to create a new Planning Calendar and Lot Size Procedure to accomodate this requirement?
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards
    Brijesh

    Dear Brijesh:
    1. I think you are planning to change the Planning calendare D01.
    2. For this go to MD26- GIVE THE plant / palnning calendar id.
    3. Then in the CAlc rule for spec peroid - change the day from wednesday to Monday.
    4. SAve this and generate periods.
    5. Now in the maeterial master- check if you have the lot size as PK and also planning calendar as d01.
    6. In the planned dleiveyr times you enter 9 days.
    Kindly check this and revert back.

  • Lot for lot(EX) with minimum lot size

    Hi Experts,
    Is it possible to have Ex with minimum lot size. I have a situation where an FG cannot be produced over a certain qty but can be produced in any numbers beyond that. Please explain.
    Regards,
    Sachin

    Hi,
    You can use Lot size key EX- lot for Lot order and Minimum lot size as per the requirement. If the lot size is smaller than the Minimum lot size qty procurement proposals will be created for the minimum lot size quantity.
    Hope it resolve your issue. Kindly revert for further clarification.

  • Lot size EX with Minimum lot size

    Hi all,
    I have a query like how will the material behave if the following settings are made
    MRP type:M0
    Lot size:EX
    Minimum lot size:100
    Rounding value:100
    Maximum lot size:300
    My main question is is it right to use lot size EX along with mimium lot size value,rounding value,Maximum lot size defined.

    Hi Anshul
    Ex is lot for lot order quqntity. It will put lot size exactly what is required from MRP run. During MRP run after net requirement calculation the system will look for Lot size,Rounding value and Rounding profile before making procurement proposal.
    You can use EX with Rounding value
    If you requirement is 180 Nos and the rounding vaule is 100 the lot size for this will be 200.
    Hope this will clear your doubt.

  • Schedule with dependent lot size problem

    Hi,
        I maintain the setup/process/tear down time(base qty is 10) in Work Schedule view in MM02(dependent with lot size)..But the begin date/end date in these POs are the same when I create Production Orders with different qty.
        It seems my setting doesn't take effect..Do you have any suggestion?
    PO 1:   100 qty      Start date 11/10  End DAte 11/11

    In-house production time (lot size dependent or independent) is used for calculating the basic dates of planned orders when MRP is run with basic dates parameter (instead of lead time scheduling). However when production orders are created basic dates are always determined according to the production dates and production dates are determined by lead time scheduling. In other words, the lot size dependent production time data that you have maintained could only determine basic dates of planned orders, only if MRP is run with that parameter. In the case of your production orders, standart values of the operations and formulas of the work centers are used by lead time scheduling. Dates might be equal because scheduling formulas of work centers does not consider order quantities or labour hours, which would be multiplied by order quantities, are not maintained in routings. Investgate the production dates and scheduling of the operations in production orders. Also have MRP create planned orders to see the effects of lot size dependent times in master data. Be sure to emty the lot size independent production time in material master to avoid it overwriting lot size dependent time.

  • How to perform Data Collection on single SFC with QTY = 1 with material lot size 1?

    Dear experts,
    We are working with SFC qty>1 on a relaxed routing. At a given operation we want to collect the data on single quantity; i.e. SFC qty on that operation, where the collection will happen, will be 1.The corresponding material lot size is for ex 10. The operator must be able to collect data on SFC with qty=1 multiple times until the quantities will be consumed. He must be also able to collect other values on the remaining quantities on the same operation with the same DC group or other DC groups. How many times the data must be collected is dependent on the shop order build quantity. The data may be collected several time but not more than the build qty. In other words some specific data will be collected on a qty of a product while others will be collected against remaining quantity. The data collection must be also done in a serialized manner.
    Here's what we have set up so far:
    1) 3 DC groups, each DC group has 3 data fields.
    2) Each data field has the following restrictions:  Required Data Entries = 0 and Optional Data Entries = 1
    3) All DC groups are attached on the same combination of operation\material\routing
    4) we are using relaxed routing
    Process description:
    The operator must be able to collect any data field on single product. For that he will enter the operation where the data collect are attached, he will enter the SFC with qty=1 then he will run the data collection after selecting the appropriate DC Group and entering the needed information. The operator will complete the SFC with qty=1.
    The operator will pick the next product, select the same SFC and enter qty 1 and collect other value against this product.
    Problem is:
    Once the first collection is done on a given SFC with entered qty=1, the system is not allowing the operator to do further collects on the same SFC with qty=1 or any other quantity. He cannot select any DC group from the DC group list. We tried also with the table selection menu on the DC Group list but nothing can be selected.
    So we tried to play around with the DC group definitions as follows:
    A) we set Required Data Entries = 0 and Optional Data Entries = 10. Still the operator was not able to select any DC group after collecting data the first time. We tried to reopen the pod and list again. But we get the same blocking behavior.
    B) we set Required Data Entries = 10 and Optional Data Entries = 1. The operator was able to select the DC group after collecting data the first time. BUT operator must enter the data fields 10 times on one SFC quantity, which is not what we want. Besides again he cannot collect other information on remaining quantities on the same operation.
    C) There's an option to serialize the SFC before reaching the operation where the collection is happening, then merging ofter complete. Automation is needed here; hence customization. We are highly avoiding customization now, since we expect the data collect to work well on single quantities even when the main SFC has qty>1
    Questions:
    1) Are we missing any kind of further configuration\setup?
    2) Or the current system design does not allow collecting data on single quantities of an SFC which main quantity is greater than 1?
    3) Looking at this link Approaches to Collection of Data - SAP Manufacturing Execution (SAP ME) - SAP Library, there's nothing mentioned about same SFC number with multiple quantities!!!
    We are using SAP ME 15.0.3.0.
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Ali

    to collect data for the same SFC multiple times, your system rule "Allow Multiple Data Collection" needs to be set to true for the site.

  • Material Cost Estimate with different lot size.

    What happens if the material cost estimate is run twice using different lot sizes each time  (all other parameters unchanged) for the same period?
    Will the cost estimate run later overwrites the results from cost estimate run earlier (though the lot size is different)? What is the role of lot size in a material cost estimate?

    The costing lot size impacts your cost estimate if you have lot size independent costs (i.e. setup cost).  Those fixed costs are spread over the costing lot sizee to give you a cost per unit..  Larger costing lot sizes can also help you minimize rounding issues.
    You can only have one marked cost estimate in a given period.  However, you can create and save a cost estimate as many times as you want as long as you have not marked it for release.  When you save the estimate it will overwrite an existing estimate.  You also have the option of creating multiple estimates under different versions or with different costing variants.

  • PLANNING CALENDER IN LOT SIZE

    Hi
    What is the function of Planning Calender in Lot Sizing procedure in SNP.

    Hi
    You can define the planning calendar to define the periodicity of lot size.
    For example in our case we want to SNP to create requirement only in alternate month based on lot size.
    So we create planning calendar which consist only alternate month and attach to lot size.
    Now when we execute the SNP planning, it will create supply element only in alternate month.
    I hope this will give insight of it. Please let us know , if it helps you.
    Thanks

  • 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,

  • Lot size exclusion from planning run

    Hi Gurus
                   My scenario is some materials are maintained with lot sizes as EX , VB, HB ,  when planning run executed , the system should not consider the VB and HB lot sizes ( these are not bom components) and no procurement proposal should exist , we are not following storage location MRP ,
    Pl come back in full thanks in advance
    Regards
    Ram

    Hi ramki
    VB is MRP type not lot size. VB consumption based planning with manual reorder point. The planning proposal will be created based on your reorder level.
    HB is lot size of " Replinishment to maximum lot size "
    Normally oils and others are procured where the storage tank capacity is restricted. The max replish level will be your max tank capacity.  You can define them as cosumable materials or bulk materials.

  • Min max lot size time based for use with SNP and PPDS

    Hi all, Is there anyway to set up time based min and max lot sizes? ie we want to have a Max lot size which is small for use with the first 3 months of our plan which starts life in SNP and then converts to PPDS and into blocks for block planning, but months 4 to 36 we want to leave as large max lot sizes as there is no need to have the small max lot sizes for the different horizon.
    As far as I can see there is only a material/plant lot size  and Max lot size and no way to have a different setting in a different time period.
    Thanks
    j

    Hi John,
    As you know, in the product master, the lot size maintenance is time-independent, so that obviously can not be used for your scenario. As per my understanding, to meet this using standard functionality, you can maintain multiple product specific t-lanes (for STRs) and PDSs (planned orders) with required lot size ranges and validity dates (for short or long term horizon). But, again since the validity of t-lanes and PDSs will not be automatically rolling forward so the updating the validities will be a challenge.
    The other option could be to enhance the heuristic functionality at lot size selection step while creating order.

    Umesh

    Thanks in advance
    Rahul

    Thanks dear
    Yes you are right the Planning Calendar starts 18.4.11 and ends 24.4.11
    Now as far as first planned order is concerned I thought it should be scheduled to start&end  on Monday 11.04.11, rather it starts&ends on Tuesday 12.4.11. Also the actual coverage days goes up to 5 days even though its maintained for 3 days.
    Similarly the second planned order also comes up on Tuesday 19.04.11 and covers 6 days (more than the setting and planning Calendar of only Monday)
    On the whole this is confusing me on Lot size and Planning Calendar relation and how it impacts MRP. Can you please help me on this.
    Also if you can throw some details on: how to restrict MRP to give planned order only on, say, Monday and Thursday, as only then it could be produced.
    Thanks in advance
