Requirement of MRP Types

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me if some materials are not used in BOM for those materials what should be the MRP types?
Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
ND or X0 planning will give you no planning at all in SAP, which means you will have to manually plan these materials.
For materials that are not contained in a BOM, most companies use a consumption type of planning.  The simplest and most common is Reorder Point planning.

  • Planning with Re-order point considering external requirements(MRP type V1)

    Dear  all,
    We are working for a scenario as mentioned below,
    We procure some marterial from our vendors, stock it and then sell to other customers.
    Here we want to use Re order point planning considering external requirements , i.e. MRP type V1.
    We have maintained following master data
    MRP type = V1
    Re order point quantity
    Lot size = HB
    Maximum stock level
    Planned delivery time.
    We have also created source list,Info record and scheduling agreement
    We also maintained setting of schedule agreement in source list as 2 (Record relevant to MRP schedule lines generated automatically)
    By doing above mentioned things when we run MRP we are getting schedule lines generated through MRP, for the lot size arrived by considering re order level,max. stock level etc.
    My requirement is the schedule line that is coming through MRP should get firmed up, whcih is not happening currently.
    Pl. guide as what other setting is required for getting firmed schedule lines.
    Regards,
    Sandeep

    Hi
    Automatic firming of Schedule lines only possible with the settings of Planning time Fence (PTF) in MRP-1 view with MRP type which allows firming . With Standard MRP type V1 it is not possible.
    As per my idea , better to create new MRP type in SPRO by copying V1 settings and give Firming type as 1  additionally. Use this new MRP type in the MRP-1 view and give Planning Time Fence say 30.
    When u run MRP then the requirements falling within the PTF get firmed Automatically.
    Pl try and revert back

  • MRP type change from VB to PD - Problem in old requirements MD04

    Hello Experts,
    For MRP run we were using VB as MRP type in material master. We upload schedule in scheduling agrrements. At time of MRP run system was only considering based on reorder point only.
    Now business disicion is change and we have changed MRP type as PD. So at time of MRP run system should consider based on requirements i.e. from scheduling agreement. Now here is our problem. System consider and shows old scheduling requirement also in MD04. Let me explanin you in detail. Before changing MRP type from VB to PD, there were some schedule  available in system. after that we have uploaded 2 3 more schedule. But system still shows old schedule availabe at time of MRP type change.
    Can you please help me how to resolve this?? How can we clear old requirements from system.
    Thanks in advance for your reply.

  • MRP Type P1 and late firm schedule lines

    Hello All,
         We are using MRP Type P1 which firms our schedule agreement schedule lines within the planning time fence (as desired).  However, sometimes the supplier is late on delivery and the firm schedule line goes into the past.
         Is it possible to have MRP move the firm schedule line delivery date to today instead of going into the past?
         Thank you,
         Jerry

    Hi ,
    Bring process forward (reschedule in)
    Within this rescheduling horizon, the net requirements calculation checks whether, after a requirement, a firmed receipt exists, which can be used to cover this requirement. Then the system displays a rescheduling date as well as the exception message Bring process forward for this receipt. The net requirements calculation then uses this receipt and the system will only create another procurement proposal if the receipt quantity is not sufficient to cover the complete requirement. Several firmed receipts can be used to cover one requirement.
    It does not take in to account the GR processing time and it is purely based on the stock requirement date , parameters in Procurement and Scheduling in the Material Master
    So it will consume the requirement  backward scheduling and bring the Process forward.
    Kumar which  strategy are you using ?  scheduling agreement is of weekly , daily or monthly bucket ?
    How many days SA bring to Production and How many days SA for forecast you are doing ?
    Are you using any Program to convert these SA in to PIR and upload ( using any program ) .

  • Open Purchase Orders not considered as requirement for MRP Run

    Hi ,
    We are facing a issue of Open Purchase orders not appeared in Stock requirements list and also it is not considered as requirement for MRP Run against reservation.
    As aresult for a reservation demand of 10 units we are ending with Open POs 10 units and a additional planned order 10 units.
    Material Type : ERSA
    MRP Type : PD (or VB)
    Lot size : EX (  HB if MRP Type is VB)
    Could you please throw some light to correct our settings to MRP to consider Open POs?

    Can you check to see if there is a re-order point set up for this materia? That could be causing the problem too.

  • Schedule Lines not generated for MRP Type PD

    HI All,
    I have created Schduling Agreement, maintained Source List with MRP Relevant - 2 option and maintained Vendor as Fix, maintained info record.
    I have created a material with MRP type as PD and lot size as EX, and strategy group as MTS. Now when i enter requirement through MD61 and do MRP Run through MD02, system is generating PR instead of Del Schdule line inspite of schduling agreement. 
    But If i change MRP type to VB and maintain reorder point and maintain min lot size, then system generates Del Schdule lines for the same material.
    What could be the reason. I want delivery schedules based on MRP Type PD.
    Where I am wrong in MRP Views or in any cutomization. It seems that purchasing part is fine since it creats scudles line so no problem in SA or in Source List.
    Please help
    Regards,

    Hi Vikas,
                      After being thru with your query,i would like to reply your ultimate question"I want delivery schedules based on MRP Type PD"
    Simple answer:put parameter 'delivery schedule line' as '3'(schedule lines in opening period) without simulation mode.
    Please make sure you  don't make any change with previous settings(custom)
    please get it done and revert.

  • MRP Type V1, VB, or PD.

    I am loking to maintain MM02 MRP Type and maintain re-order point at 0.
    MRP Type V1 & VB are not allowing me to enter 0 as a re-order point value.
    I am in a simple distribution environment where finished goods are purchased and issued with no sales or production requirements.
    I would like to run MRP and generate Purchase Requisitions for items with re-order points.
    I am also looking to maintain the Material Master for items that are not required to have re-order points but may need to be ordered in future.
    The current MRP Type is: V1 with Lot Size: HB.
    Therefore I am unable to change Re-Order point to 0.
    What is the best setting for this enviroment to maintaint the Material Master and have re-order point of 0?
    Thank you,
    Tim

    Hi Tim!
    Your question is related to MRP module of ERP, however, this space is dedicated to SAP ME and MII solutions. Thus you'd rather re-post the question to a proper forum - this might help you find the right one.

  • MRP TYPE for  Periodic planning in the material master.

    Dear gurus,
    i need planned the materials in the periodic modality, are there the type MRP in the material master for create the planned file ( table MDVM) one once a month or in the specific period chose ?
    Example :
    I need that the material master don't create a file planned ( MD20- TABLE MDVM) for a change of the requirement situation new , but i would like that the flag in the table ( MDVM) or file of the planning MRP created when the today date is in the period specific.
    31.3.2011  (or period 1.4.2011- 10-4-2011)Date for the create a file MRP and after when run MRP planned the material, for others scenary the system must not planned the material.
    Are there the MRP type for my problem? Or the customizing setting?
    Thanks a lot
    Dani

    Dani,
    Not sure if MRP type or customizing can help here. And even if we are able to achieve this requirement it will be applicable at plant level.
    However, try exploring option of periodic lot size (weekly, monthly, etc). This will work according to period you've set and should give you the results you are looking for.

  • MRP type for two different types requirments( Sale order and PIRs)

    Dear All,
    We have requirment  some materials we have sales order and PIRs. For sales order we want to consider with "MRP type" as PD and PIR we want to consider "MRP type" as VB manual reorder point planning.
    Is there any stadard  solution.
    If standard solution not possible also poivde some inputs on enhancement.
    Regards
    Sailendra
    Edited by: nivedita yadav on May 7, 2010 2:31 PM

    Sailendra,
    your post is confusing, how you want to different MRP type for same material?
    and why its needed?
    1) you can use MRP type PD , and incoming sales order will search in existing stock or will create procurement proposal ( depends upon what strategy you are using)
    2) If you  are using VB then when ever you stock will fall below the reorder point you maintained in material master , system will create new procurement proposal, here the manual means the value you need to maintained manualy for reorder point and safety stock.
    In automatic reorder point planning, both the reorder level and the safety stock level are determined by the integrated forecasting program.
    The system uses past consumption data (historical data) to forecast future requirements. The system then uses these forecast values to calculate the reorder level and the safety stock level, taking the service level, which is specified by the MRP controller, and the material's replenishment lead time into account, and transfers them to the material master.
    hope it will help you.
    Regards

  • Discontinued parts with MRP type VB

    We have scenario as below :
    1.       We have material A with stock 100, open PO 50.
    2.       The material A is now planned to be phased out by replacing it with a new material B
    3.       Material A had MRP type VB now we will change it to ND
    4.       Material B will have MRP type VB
    5.       So when we run MRP for materil B it should consider stock of material A & Open PO of Material A for calculation during the MRP run and the new requirement calculation should be
    Example :
    Material B is set up with RO point 100 and max stock of 150
    So when we run MRP for Material B even though stock for material B is zero it should not generate any new requirement as stock & open PO of material A exists.

    Hello
    Please take a look on the following note, which explains the general restrictions of the discontinuation process:
    43636 - Discontinued parts
    The note provides the following explanation regarding the MRP type:
    The material is planned using an MRP procedure, for example, MRP type PD.
    Therefore, since you are using MRP type VB, which uses a reorder point procedure, the discontinuation will not happen and your system is working as designed.

  • MRPgenerated requisitions and MRP type =VB

    Hi Gurus,
    I have the following question.
    IF a material has the MRP type VB=manual reorder point planning, then when the stock falls below the reorder point, MRP generates purchase  requisitions. For eg, on May 1st, MRP generated a requistion of 100 units of one material. Now, if no PO is created or no goods receipt done on May 1st of that material, will MRP run on the next day will create one more requistion of 100 units? Or there will be no requistion generated by MRP, as there is already a requistion of required qty sitting there?
    Thanks,
    Kumar

    Dear Kumar,
    MRP run is as per the business requirements and it can be run daily or weekly or monthly (or individually for a material using
    MD02.).In your case since already one PR for the required quantity has been existing in the system,when MRP is run on
    the next day the system does not create any additonal PR for 100 quantity,and if you run with a MRP control parameter with
    value 3 for planning type - delete and recreate planning data,then the system will delete the old PR and generates a new PR for
    the same 100 quantity.

  • MD04 Screen - MRP Type VB

    Hi Experts,
    We are facing problem on MD04
    Material -- 151-1234
    MRP Type -- VB
    I saw only order reservation details, I don't see Dep Requirment details, we have open production orders and open planned orders in father (main assembly) materials
    Ques:
    Is there any different logic for 'VB' MRP type in MD04 screen?
    What the reason for not showing in MD04 screen?
    Regards,
    Sankaran

    Hi,
    For MRP type VB, dependent requirement (open prod order, dep planned order)will not pass from main material.
    Because this is reorder point planning, so while MRP run system plan for procurement if the stock qty falls below the reorder level.
    In MD04 you can see only P.R & P.O for VB type material.
    While running MRP for main material, VB type material will not plan.
    You have to run separately by MD01 or MD02.

  • System creating procurement proposal for components having MRP type VB

    Hello All
             I am having a FG under which there are two raw materials ROH1 & ROH2, MRP type for FG & ROH1 is PD & lot size EX, MRP type for ROH2 is VB & lot size HB. When am running Single-Item-Multilevel MRP for FG (using txn MD02) system is creating purchase requisition for ROH2 as well which shall not be the case as its MRP type is VB (Manual Planning).
            Looking forward to your valuable inputs for resolving this issue.
    Regards,
    J K Tharwani

    Thanks for your inputs
             There is stock of ROH2 above the reorder point still the system is generating purchase requisition after I run the MRP for FG, I would like to inform you that I am running MRP of the FG against Customer independent requirement (Sales Order), am using strategy 50(MTO) for FG.
             I also checked the similar scenario with another FG but i kept strategy as 40(MTS) for it, & when am running the MRP against independent requirement of FG with 40 strategy am not getting any purchase requisition for ROH2 (having MRP type VB & lot size HB).
            Can you please make me understand this behaviour of the systtem. Again looking forward to your valuable inputs.
