Requirement Prioritization - ERP Materials Management

Hi,
I have activated Requriement Prioritization functionality and carried out folloing customization:
I. Activate Requirement Prioritization
Prio Active: x
Req. Priority (RP): 20
Req. Urgency (RU): 2
II. Define Requirement Urgency Groups
A = High
B = Medium
C = Low
III. Define and Assign Requirement Urgencies
RU              Text for RU            UG
1                 High                       A

3                 Low                       C
IV. Define Organizational Priorities (using the existing Organizational Priority)
Org Prio            Text for Org Priority

Issue: Based on the above settings I expect the Requirement Urgency (RU) is automatically defaulted as '1' in the Purcahse requistion which is created from a sales order (Pur. req. account assigned to the sales order). However, the requriement Urgency is not assigned to the Purchase requisition. besides, when the Purcashe order is created it gets the RU = 2 default from the RU activated in Step # 1.
Please let me know if I missed something. Thanks in advance for your feedback !
with regards,
Arup

Hi Suraj,
Thanks for the response. However, just to clarify the issue again.
Requriement:
1. Activation of Requirement Prioritization funcitonality for Purchase documents (Purchase Requisition and Purchase Orders)
2. Based on Plant and Storage Location Combination determination of Requirement Urgency on the Purchase documents.
To my understanding available BAdIs are for determining Organizational priority if additional information from the purchase documents are to be considered.
As mentioned the issue is with the standard organizational priority determination based on Plant+Sto.Loc combination (i.e. 5 as per the configuration setting made in the system) and subsequent determination of Requirement Urgency (i.e. 1 as per the configuration made in the system) on the Purchasing documents is not working.

Prioritize the Purchase Requisiotions/PO's as per requirement

Issue :- In my current system there will be alot of pending PR's & PO's.I couldn't able to followup these and sometimes i am not able to deliver the materials in time.
Assumption :- I think there is a new feature called "Requirement Prioritization "with EC 7.0 version.
So could you please share with me if you have any solutions.
Cheers,
Anil

Hello Sachin,
Standard SAP forms pick up the delivery address that was determined in the Purchase Order line. Normally this is either the Plant address or, if maintained, the storage location address. The storage location address can be maintained in customizing under "Enterprise structure - Definition - Materials Management - Maintain Storage Location".
The form checks the delivery addresses on the different PO lines. If these are all the same, it displays the address in the document header. If not, then it displays this per line item. If the printout does not show the PO line delivery address from the plant or storage location, the logic in the form is probably different from standard SAP logic. In this case, you should look for solving this in the Form, in combination with the standar SAP logic for determining the delivery address in the Purchase Order.

Requirement Urgency for Purchase order

Hi,
I have configured Requirement Urgency ( I have created 2 code "01 and 99 respectively for emergency and routine , now while creating PR, system proposes 99 as routine , which is correct as per my requirement, again when I do change the requirement priority in PR , it is allowing me to so ( e.g. from 99 to 01 ) and based on that I am able to get the report in ME5A.
However , when I am creating P.O with reference to PR, I am able to see the only "99 " codes no "01, codes.?
Is any clue ? can any body suggest.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Guys,
Could u please explain me the concept of requirement priority In Purchasing documents.
Regards
Lokesh

Hi lokesh
In requirement prioritazation users can use the requirement prioritization function to control the servicing of material requisitions in the supply chain according to their urgency.
Requirement prioritization serves to determine a priority for the further processing of requirement items in the logistics process.
U can find this in the item overview of the purchasing document.
Path: SAP Customizing Implementation Guide -
Materials Management -
General Settings for Materials Management -
Requirement Prioritization.
step to be followed are:
Define requirement prioritization
Activate requirement prioritization
Define requirement urgency group
Assign each requirement urgency to a requirement urgency group
Define organizational priorities
Assign organizational priorities to plant and storage location
Hope it wud have answered ur question
Reward if useful

Hi,
Refer following link;
[SAP ERP Solution Browser|http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/]
Following are the basic differences as far as MM Module is concerned;
Pickup list - Batch where-used list display in transaction MB56
u2022 Until release 4.7, the top-down and bottom-up analyses in the function pickup list for batch where-used list (transaction MB5C) were displayed only in the form of simple output lists. As of release 6.00 of SAP ERP Central Component, the function pickup list for batch where-used list branches to the batch where-used list itself (transaction MB56).
u2022 In addition, user can define how the data in the batch where-used list is displayed, in the initial screen.
u2022 User can use all the settings available in the batch where-used list. For example, he can expand transfer posting or display vendor batch. However, it is not possible to limit the selection to valid plants in the initial screen of the pickup list.
Usability enhancements for transaction MIGO for the posting of goods movements
u2022 For goods movements that refer to purchase orders as reference documents (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, subsequent adjustment), user can specify the ordering plant as an additional selection criterion directly next to the purchase order number and the item number.
u2022 There is a new default value: "copy account assignment fields." When entering other goods receipts, user can copy existing account assignment data from the previous item to use as the default values for a new item. To do this, user has to set the copy account assignment fields indicator in the default values.
u2022 User changes the default values in the menu path "Settings -> Default Values."
u2022 Goods movement is monitored with reference to a material document. When you enter the following goods movements, it is possible to specify a material document, such as the following, as the reference document:
- Goods receipt
- Goods issue
- Transfer posting
- Remove from storage
u2022 Note that these material documents must be documents that have arisen from a goods movement without reference ("Others") and that are not reversal documents.
New report : display list of invoice documents (MIR5)
u2022 Logistics invoice verification offers a new report display list of invoice documents (RMMR1MDI), w hich user can use to display such a list (Transaction is MIR5).
u2022 As an addition to the existing program invoice overview (transaction code MIR6), user have extended selection criteria and display options. For example, on the initial screen user can make selections by one-time customers, invoice gross amount, and entry date.
u2022 User can also show an expert mode, which enables him to select at plant level by FI document, GL A/c posting, and Material Posting.
u2022 In the output list, the report shows both posted and held invoices.
u2022 It does not show invoices without a corresponding FI document; such as invoices planned for verification in the background or which the software has already verified as containing errors.
Requirement prioritizations in materials management
u2022 With Requirement Prioritization functionality user can assign requirement urgency at item level in purchasing and reservation documents.
u2022 The software determines the relevant requirement priority (overall priority) of a material requisition from the combination of requirement urgency group and organizational priority.
Mass maintenance of outline agreements
The following two transactions available:
u2022 Mass maintenance for contracts: transaction code MEMASSCONTRACT
u2022 Mass maintenance for scheduling agreements: transaction code MEMASSSA
Commitment plan for purchase contracts
u2022 With the function of the commitment plan for purchase contracts, it is possible to pre plan value consumption for a purchase contract.
u2022 To this end, a commitment plan is generated for each document item of the relevant contract.
u2022 This commitment plan itself can have any number of items.
u2022 User can define a value and a validity date for each commitment plan item.
u2022 This enables user to pre plan different values for different periods of time.
u2022 The software generates an earmarked fund document for a defined commitment plan item.
u2022 This earmarked funds document can in turn contain several different items with different account assignments.
u2022 The software adopts these account assignments from the item account assignments of the commitment plan.
u2022 If a purchase requisition or purchase order references this contract, the earmarked funds document is copied into the purchase order, and the account assignment is adopted from that document.
u2022 Account assignment to a different account assignment object is then no longer allowed.

BOP Sort Criteria Order priority ORDPRIO

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me where can I find this field on the sales order. How is this populated in the sales order. Does it come from the customer master or from where ?
Regards,

Biswajit,
ORDPRIO does not originate from SD. It therefore does not exist in any Sales Order.
ORDPRIO may be used when performing BOP on Stock Transport orders. This field can exist in dependent requirements (reservations) created by Stock Transport orders. In order to use this field, you must have previously activated MM Requirements Prioritization in ERP.

thanks,
k srinivas

Hi,
Refer following link;
[SAP ERP Solution Browser|http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/]
Following are the basic differences as far as MM Module is concerned;
Pickup list - Batch where-used list display in transaction MB56
u2022 Until release 4.7, the top-down and bottom-up analyses in the function pickup list for batch where-used list (transaction MB5C) were displayed only in the form of simple output lists. As of release 6.00 of SAP ERP Central Component, the function pickup list for batch where-used list branches to the batch where-used list itself (transaction MB56).
u2022 In addition, user can define how the data in the batch where-used list is displayed, in the initial screen.
u2022 User can use all the settings available in the batch where-used list. For example, he can expand transfer posting or display vendor batch. However, it is not possible to limit the selection to valid plants in the initial screen of the pickup list.
Usability enhancements for transaction MIGO for the posting of goods movements
u2022 For goods movements that refer to purchase orders as reference documents (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, subsequent adjustment), user can specify the ordering plant as an additional selection criterion directly next to the purchase order number and the item number.
u2022 There is a new default value: "copy account assignment fields." When entering other goods receipts, user can copy existing account assignment data from the previous item to use as the default values for a new item. To do this, user has to set the copy account assignment fields indicator in the default values.
u2022 User changes the default values in the menu path "Settings -> Default Values."
u2022 Goods movement is monitored with reference to a material document. When you enter the following goods movements, it is possible to specify a material document, such as the following, as the reference document:
- Goods receipt
- Goods issue
- Transfer posting
- Remove from storage
u2022 Note that these material documents must be documents that have arisen from a goods movement without reference ("Others") and that are not reversal documents.
New report : display list of invoice documents (MIR5)
u2022 Logistics invoice verification offers a new report display list of invoice documents (RMMR1MDI), w hich user can use to display such a list (Transaction is MIR5).
u2022 As an addition to the existing program invoice overview (transaction code MIR6), user have extended selection criteria and display options. For example, on the initial screen user can make selections by one-time customers, invoice gross amount, and entry date.
u2022 User can also show an expert mode, which enables him to select at plant level by FI document, GL A/c posting, and Material Posting.
u2022 In the output list, the report shows both posted and held invoices.
u2022 It does not show invoices without a corresponding FI document; such as invoices planned for verification in the background or which the software has already verified as containing errors.
Requirement prioritizations in materials management
u2022 With Requirement Prioritization functionality user can assign requirement urgency at item level in purchasing and reservation documents.
u2022 The software determines the relevant requirement priority (overall priority) of a material requisition from the combination of requirement urgency group and organizational priority.
Mass maintenance of outline agreements
The following two transactions available:
u2022 Mass maintenance for contracts: transaction code MEMASSCONTRACT
u2022 Mass maintenance for scheduling agreements: transaction code MEMASSSA
Commitment plan for purchase contracts
u2022 With the function of the commitment plan for purchase contracts, it is possible to pre plan value consumption for a purchase contract.
u2022 To this end, a commitment plan is generated for each document item of the relevant contract.
u2022 This commitment plan itself can have any number of items.
u2022 User can define a value and a validity date for each commitment plan item.
u2022 This enables user to pre plan different values for different periods of time.
u2022 The software generates an earmarked fund document for a defined commitment plan item.
u2022 This earmarked funds document can in turn contain several different items with different account assignments.
u2022 The software adopts these account assignments from the item account assignments of the commitment plan.
u2022 If a purchase requisition or purchase order references this contract, the earmarked funds document is copied into the purchase order, and the account assignment is adopted from that document.
u2022 Account assignment to a different account assignment object is then no longer allowed.
Availability check in "Enjoy purchase order and requisition"
u2022 Display and checking of availability are invokable separately in the "Enjoy purchase order and requisition" function, in line with the software behavior on the sales side.
u2022 User invoke the display and checking of availability in the "Enjoy purchase order" function (transaction code ME21N) and the "Enjoy purchase requisition" function (transaction code ME51N) as follows:
- To display the availability overview, choose the menu path "Environment -> Availability." - To check availability, choose the "Check Availability" icon.
- Until this release, if user carried out the availability check for an item of a stock transport order, the software adopted confirmations as per the desired date/time only.
u2022 Two settings are possible with availability check:
- Confirmation as per desired date/time (this is the standard setting and corresponds to previous software behavior)
- Delivery proposal - Full confirmation
External services: putting service items in the purchase order on hold (changed)
User can put purchase orders with service items on hold if these items do not contain any errors. Purchase orders with service items can also be put on hold if errors occur only at header level or as a result of the availability check.
Customizing transactions OX18 replaced by view
The assigned customizing transactions have been replaced by the following view in the following implementation guide activity in customizing for the enterprise structure: Assign plant to company code: transaction OX18 replaced by view V_T001K_Assign. One will find this activity in the implementation guide under the menu path "Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Logistics General -> Assign Plant to Company Code."
Goods receipt: new movement types in inventory management
The following new movement types are available in inventory management:
- 107: Goods receipt to valuated goods receipt blocked stock
- 109: Goods receipt from valuated goods receipt blocked stock
Prepayment of invoices
This functionality is characterized as follows:
u2022 User can trigger prepayment of vendor invoices in logistics invoice verification.
u2022 User use the prepayment function for vendors with whom organisation has a good, long-standing relationship.
u2022 The function enables payment soon after issue of the invoice and full exploitation of the date of required payment and existing cash discounts, by posting the vendor liabilities, taxes, and cash discounts in financial accounting in advance.
u2022 The software executes the payment of the invoice regardless of the relevant goods receipt and the outcome of the invoice verification check.

u2022 If the software has already posted the prepayment document, user can make only restricted changes to the header fields of the invoice.
u2022 To ensure adequate and orderly financial accounting postings, a prepayment clearing account has been added to SAP ERP Central Component.
u2022 Upon prepayment, the software debits this account and then settles the account again after executing the check.
Purchasing accounting information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse
u2022 With the transfer of the purchasing account information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse component (whose functionality is now part of SAP Net Weaver), it is now possible to maintain Info Cubes, reports, and queries that can determine how and where the costs from purchasing documents have been assigned and controlled.
u2022 As part of the software, a new data source (2LIS_02_ACC) has been created and the purchasing extraction process extended to cover the account information for purchasing orders, schedule agreements, and contracts.
