RLM MRP execution at storage location

Hello Friends,
Need help - I am configuring RLM with MRP - need help with below:
Requirement: I need to run MRP at the main storage location first (requirement is from Plant Maint order), followed by another MRP run at secondary storage locations. I want to deplete stock in the main storage location before using up stock at secondary storage locations.
This is not for re-order point planning (VB) for both storage locations, I know that I can plan MRP separately at storage location levels, but that only works with re-order point replenishment.
Is MRP area configuration my only option?
If possible I want to avoid MRP area configuration - I hear once it is configured we can revert back!

Hi Joe,
As per your client requirement, you need to run MRP at Main storage location, and want to avoid performing at storage location, here you can define the supply chain derivation via plant Mainteniance order by using using item category and transport requistion in RLM Configuration. you have option to select the order type order type item category ( ), item category change rule ...( newer change item category) & direct prourement type ( SAP Std ).
Yes MRP Area is the only option, the MRP first as plant level is the option, check in setting ie Step-3 Supply process derivation via plant ( supply type PD).
The parameters for the RLM Supply Process are a combination of the following:
· Material requirements planning (MRP) type at the requesting plant or storage location (the plant making the request for materials)
· MRP type at the supplying plant or storage location (the plant or storage location supplying the material)
· Special procurement type at the demanding plant or storage location.

Help required -for MRP Run at storage location level

Hi ,
we need to have separate MRP fro two storage locations with direct procurement from Storage locations. Right now we have MRP run at Plant level for all the storage locations. we donot want the materials in these two storage locations to be planned at Plant level only with Separate storage locations. Plant level MRP will run for the other storage locations .
I have created separate MRP areas for the storage locations & activated MRP for MRP Areas client level. material masters for the two storage locations have been asigned the MRP areas & maintained the MRP area data in material master .
When we run the MD01, the Planned orders are getting created at both MRP areas plus at the Plant level.we donot want the planned orders creation at Plant MRP area level-only at the storage location level for those two storage locations MRP areas.
Can anybody guide me -how to achieve that ? Did we miss any configuration?
I tried to maintain scope of planning & getting error for parallel processing .
Do i need to maintain parallel procesing with servers ?
Pls need your input on this. Any help will be highly appreciated .
   Thank you in advance.
    Regards,
    Krish.

Hi,
     Go to IMG settings 'Materials Management + Consumption-Based Planning + Planning + Define Storage Location MRP per Plant' Enter your Plant, It will show list of storage location in that Plant, then select 2 in 'MRP Indicator' field for storage location for which u want to plan seperately.
Hope It will clear Your Problem

How to run MRP on different storage location level ?

Dear Experts,
Need your valuable guidance to solve the below requirement form the client-
1) My client want to enter a "safety stock level" for one spare part/ Material on the basis of individual storage locations.
           For sake of example: in SL01 he wants the safety stock for particular material set to 5
                              In FS18 he wants the safety stock set to 2
                              In FS15 he wants the safety stock set to 1
Kindly tell me whether it is possible? & guide me how to do it.
2) Also tell me how to run MRP on a storage location level?
           This is because after maintaining different safety stocks for one material in different storage locations, is it possible to appear each storage location with their differing safety stock levels?
I checked the MRP type maintained & its-1 (plant) & not as- 2 (storage location).
Kindly guide me for the above issue
Thanks in advance for your support.

Mehul

Hi Umashanker,
Thanks for your suggession . Accordingly I have resolved the issue.

MRP Relevance for Storage Location

All SAP Gurus,
In SPRO where we need to maintain MRP Relevance for Storage Location?
Regards,

Dear,
Check transaction OMIR - Storage location - MRP relevance.
In detail:
To control whether a particular storage location will be included or excluded from the MRP run. (MD02/MD41).
To exclude it from MRP run follow the steps:-
OMIR - Define storage location MRP per plant
Put the MRP ind. as.         1 - storage location stock excluded for MRP
To include it from MRP run:-
OMIR - Define storage location MRP per plant
Put the MRP ind. as.      space - storage location stock also planned at plant level and save it
Next go to transaction MM01 - tick only view MRP 2
Key in Plant and Storage Location
Look at the Storage Location MRP section
change the SLoc MRP indicator to space and save it
MMD1 - Create MRP Profile - MRP profile is a useful entry aid and makes it easier to manage MRP data.
You define which fields are filled with values when MRP data is entered in the material master record, which of these values can be overwritten and which not.   You use the information stored in a profile is standard information that is needed again and again in similar constellations when material master records are maintained.

Syed Hussain.

Change MRP type at storage location level

Morning,
i am having trouble with PD and ND reporting. Your you are aware ND should only have balances of 0 and PD should only have balances of >0. When i run a reportto show all PD stock and exclude the positive balances, i am getting MM numbers appearing that are 0 in 1 sLoc but have a positive stock balance in another sLoc. This becomes a problem when i change the PD to ND because it changes at plant level. i only want this to be changed at the sLoc with the 0 stock balance.
I have tried MM06 to flag the MM for deletion at sLoc level however, when running the report again, the sLoc with 0 stock balance still shows.
Also, i have about 800+ that need changing so a solution to do this in a batch would also be appreciated.
Please help.
Paul

Hi,
Go to IMG settings 'Materials Management + Consumption-Based Planning + Planning + Define Storage Location MRP per Plant' Enter your Plant, It will show list of storage location in that Plant, then select 2 in 'MRP Indicator' field for storage location for which u want to plan seperately.
Hope It will clear Your Problem

Can PIR created at wbs element and MRP area of storage location level

Hi,
I tried to create an planned independent requirement at MRP area and WBS element level, but failed. The MRP area is not plant level, but storage location level.
*When trying to create account assignment category Q for it, then there is an error message saying:*
**only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level.**
Does it mean it is not possible to create planned independent requirement for this case?
Thanks!

Select the "Issue storage location" as '2' here:
spro -> production -> material requirement planning -> mrp groups -> overall maintenance of mrp groups -> overview -> mrp control parameters at material level -> (field) Issue storage location selection
& make sure:
1. In the BOM issue storage location is blank for the components
2. For the FG products , in mrp area prod.storage loc is maintained
3. Components are extended to the mrp area.
Pl. revert with the results

LTP excludes materials with MRP indicator of storage location

Hi All,
SAP Note 208017 explains the reason for LTP not taking into account the MRP
indicator of a storage location for a material. Has anyone tried a work around for this issue?
<b>We basically are looking for a snapshot of operative MRP a week back from current date</b> and I thought LTP can be used, but it plans at the plant stock level. Since we have service inventory managed at storage location level and its exculded in operative MRP, we cant have consistent results with LTP being used for my purpose.
Any inputs appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
1. I dont think we should use the LTP Forthe purpose of your requriement
2. Since i think you will be runing the MRP at certain frequency say daily,weekly etc
3. LTP is a strong functionality for the forward planning , which means for a medium or long term in the forward direction
4. For the purpose of snap shot we shouldnot use this ...
may be pp gurus in the forum will be giving us some reply which you are looking for

MRP Areas on storage location Basis

Hi,
I created some MRP areas for different storage locations, and assigned those MRP Areas to material(MRP 1 View). Every thing looks fine as of now.
1)Now when I have seen some forums, I seen Convert planning file entries (SE38 program RMDBVM00), I never done conversion of planning files, can any one tell me what is the importance of it? I didn't done conversion of planning files, will that have any impact on MRP Run.
Thanks
Aplha

Alpha,
Can I convert planning files now, In D,Q and P, will that effect MRP Run?
As expert Caetano has said repeatedly, of course it will affect the MRP run.
The whole purpose of having Development, Quality, and Production systems is to ensure that any changes made in software do not disrupt your business. In any sane environment, you first perform your changes (such as converting your planning file entries) in dev, and perform unit testing. Once you have convinced yourself that the change is worthy of testing, you then move the changes to Qual, where typically your company performs Integration and User Acceptance testing. Only after the business community and the IT community have tested and are satisfied with the results, should you then perform the changed process in Production.
In short, you shouldn't be asking us in SCN when it is OK to perform the activity in the Productive system, you should be following your company's 'change management' processes, which usually involve, at a minimum, asking your company's user community if the change is acceptable to them.

MRP run at storage location

Dear All
We have around 10 storage location and out of the 5 storage location i dont want to include in the MRP run.
What should I do ? can you please guide me.
Regards,
AMOL WAGH

Dear ,
In my understanding it's only possible to make stock in transfer,blocked stock and restricted use stock as available/not available
for planning.So in my understanding it's not possible to exclude a particular storage location's quality stock to be excluded from
MRP.
kindly check this thread which gives a clear explanation regarding your requirement.
Exclude QI stocks from MRP
Correct me if I'm wrong.

MRP to ecxlude storage location stock and read only requirement

Hi All,
Below is the requirement for raw material,
Have two storage locations A and B.
For storage location A, MRP should exclude stock but has to consider demand's at A (dependent requirements, order reservations) and create MRP elements (purchase requisitions, scheduling agreements etc.).
SLOC B has to consider as normal for MRP (should read demand and stock as well).
Please suggest if it is doable, if yes; how to set the storage location A, so that it just read the demands but exclude stock.
Setting up only "SLOC Indicator" 1 in MRP 4 view is not the option I believe.
Thank you.

Can someone please suggest on below requirement,
How to make the settings at material level so that for a storage location 'A', MRP will just read/consider the demand but exclude the stock.
Is it feasible?

Deepak Girme

MRP for plant/storage location

Dear all,
I have a question regarding MRP extension for plants and materials.
There is one plant (8000). Company has recently got two locations u201Cxu201D and u201Cyu201D in different states. MRP has to be run for u201Dxu201D for sales orders and PRu2019s generated should be directed to the main plant 8000 which then triggers a TO for u201Cxu201D.
My question is since u201Cxu201D and u201Cyu201D are not yet maintained in SAP, Please advise whether to maintain them as plants or as storage locations and also the main steps to be followed for this process. Also, Please advise is there any config to be done so that PRu2019s are directed to plant 8000 and automatic TO/STO are triggered to u201Cxu201D

Hi Krish,
Go to following IMG path and check out your settings -
IMG>>>Production>>>MRP>>>Master Data>>>>MRP Areas>>>
(1) Activate MRP for MRP Areas -
Is that activated?
(2)Define MRP areas>>>> Do setting s as per Storage Location
Then run MRP.
MRP Areas
In this IMG activity you define whether MRP is to be carried out with MRP areas. In addition, you define the MRP areas for each plant in which you would like to carry out this type of materials requirements planning.
The MRP area represents an organizational unit which carries out materials requirements planning independently. The results of the planning run are displayed specifically for each MRP area. An MRP area can include one or several storage locations of a plant or stock with a subcontractor.
You can assign a material to various MRP areas.
Basically, there are three types of MRP areas:
Plant MRP Area
Initially, the plant MRP area includes the plant with all its storage locations and stock with subcontractors. When you have defined MRP areas for storage locations and for subcontractors and you have assigned the materials, the plant MRP area is reduced by exactly this number of subcontractors and storage locations, as they are now to be planned separately.
MRP Areas for Storage Locations
You can define an MRP area that consists of a particular storage location by creating an MRP area and assigning the storage location to it. Material requirements for this storage location are then planned separately from the rest of the plant. You can also group several storage locations into one MRP area by creating an MRP area and assigning the storage locations. These storage locations are then planned together.
MRP Areas for Subcontractors
You can also define an MRP area for each subcontractor. Using an MRP area, it is possible to plan the components to be provided in subcontracting, by defining an MRP area for each subcontractor and assigning the components to be provided. You can therefore plan the requirements to be provided for these components for one subcontractor separately from the usual requirements.
Up to now, MRP at plant level had been carried out. The various requirements were combined in the planning run and procurement elements were created for these pegged requirements with unknown sources.
The introduction of MRP areas enables you to carry out material requirements planning and know the source of the pegged requirements and to be able to distinguish between them. The source of the pegged requirements can be, for example, production on a particular assembly line or a subcontract order.
Material requirements planning for each MRP area allows you to have specific control over the staging and procurement of important in-house production parts and purchased parts for each shop floor and assembly area.
Hope this will give you more idea about the same.

Storage location determination with MRP

Hi GURUu2019s,
I need to know what set up decides which Storage location is used for MRP if there is more than one storage location per plant.
Please guide me.
Cheers,
Kumar.S

Dear
Pleaae do the following :
1.Check in OMIR keep the indicator as Blank (IMG-Production-MRP-Planning-Define Storage Location MRP per Plant-It should not be 1 OR 2 .
2.Make sure that materials in those storage loaction should not have indicator 1/2 in MRP4 view .
Bssically , you do nto need to change any configuration setup in case because it will by defalut as Blnak in OMIR -means all the materials in varioaus storage location are MRP relevent .Those storage location should be under plant which hase activated for MRP (spro-mrp-activate MRP for Plant )
Hope this helps
