Role of MRP Type

Hi,
Please let me know the role of MRP Type in transferring the material from R/3 to APO.
Thanks,
Prabhat

Hi Prabhat,
MRP Type represents how material requirements planning will be
carried out in a typical ERP system.
Depending upon different values that we specify for MRP type,
planning will be carried out for that location product.
If we have APO system integrated to R/3, then you need to choose
XO as MRP type if you need that product to be planned in APO.
If you want to plan the material at R/3 level, choose your value as
PD
If you do not want to do MRP at all, but if you need your requirements
of that location product to be transferred, then choose the value
as ND

Role of MRP Indicator regarding Excise Part in GR or in J1IEX

Dear All,
Pleae let me know which is little bit confusing among the user .Actually when we do the GR & capturing the excise part but when we click the check on MRP indicator and what are the role of MRP indicator .
Also standars system makes the excise flow from GR to excise posting in J1IEX & then in MIRO but some of time it won't flow in MIRO then we kamke it flown through Condition type.
We want it shoud flow for the excise from excise posting to MIRO whether respective condition types are maintained or not in PO but it must flow the excise whatever entered in GR time & finally posted in J1IEX..
Please share your views...
Thanks,

Hi,
when we click the check on MRP indicator and what are the role of MRP indicator .
see when you having a trading po in that case you dont know what will be the duty you get fron trader in that case you have to mark MRP indicator while caturing invoice on miscellaneous tab ,in that cas ewe can use it but for that we have to maitan tax code with excise value in po
ex
in po basic valu is 100
BED-10
cess-2
hcess-1
when yo get invoice from trader he give you duty
po basic value is 100
bed-12
cess-2.5
hcess-1.5
in that case we have to change it manuaaly in migo or J1EXI

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 ) .

Purchase Order is generated after MRP for Material with MRP Type ND

Hi Everyone,
Material type := HAWA
My material procurement type = F i.e. External Procurement.
MRP Type = ND in Production server , and VB in Quality
Lot Size = EX
Material Status :- 15 Pre-release both for Quality and production server
The Material is bulk material and bulk material indicator is set.
Purchasing View is also maintained for the same.
Planning Strat = Z5 Company specific
Special procurement key:- Z7 Company specific
I am running MD02 with following parameters.
Create Pur Req =1, PR
Create MRP List = 1, MRP List
Delivery Schedule = 3, Schedule Lines
Planning Mode = 2 Re- Explode BOM & Routing
Scheduling = 1
Issue:
After MRP run, system is generating PR, Though with MRP type ND purchase requisition should not be generated.
Observation:- Looks like there is inconsistency of material date in Quality and production server.
When I tried to run the planning , The Error message was generated"Material status is set to pre- release.
After changing the material status to 20 (Active ) , when we run the MRP , The error message is generated "Material is not planned automatically "
We havent been able to locate the root cause so far
Please guide us
Thanks in Advance,
Ayaz

IF the material is ND, system won't Run MRP for the material
Observation:- Looks like there is inconsistency of material date in Quality and production server.
There is no link
When I tried to run the planning , The Error message was generated"Material status is set to pre- release.After changing the material status to 20 (Active ) , when we run the MRP , The error message is generated "Material is not planned automatically "
system will read the X plant material status or plant specific material status first and then only system will read MRP type

MRP Type V1 - How to take open Purchase Orders into consideration

hi I'm having a problem with a material which is setup as MRP type V1.
When running MRP using NEUPL a purchase requisition is created as expected based on re-order point on the material master. At this point the Purchase Req is converted to a PO, but the delivery date maybe pushed out before saving. Running MRP after pushing out the deliver date on Purchase Orer generates another Purchase Requistion with a delivery date before the PO. Is there a way to get MRP to take the open PO into consideration rather than suggesting another PO ?
Our planning horizon is set to 365 days.
Is it possible to get MRP to see the PO and not suggest a req ?
Thanks for any help

I have checked the availability check and we are using one that is ticked to include purchase orders. this does not seem to have any effect.
The lead time on the item is 5 on the material master and 15 on the infor rec which is not that high ?
and when running MB02 for the item I am running with Create Purchase Requistion = 1
is it that what I'm expecting is unrealistic? i.e that for re-order point materials MRP is only going to take into account the lead times and if there is a Purchase Order with a delivery date outside of the leadtime the system will see that we need to reorder and generates a Req within the leadtime without looking out futher to see what's on order ?

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

Vikas

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.

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

Want to set Min Max for a material for PD MRP type

Hi,
I know Maximum stock level field in Material master MRP 2 view ? but where do i maintain minimum stock level? not procured?
My client wants to set up his inventory with Min Max levels using MRP PD?
Thanks and Apprecaites help.
Regards,
Siva

Hi,
If you want to maintain a Max and Min stock level, Maximum stock is shown straight away, you cannot find the Minimum field directly.
if you want to use MRP type PD then go for safety stock that will be your minimum stock level
or else use Re-order point planning, re-order point will be your minimum and Max-level as maximum.
Thanks
Satya

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.

Ritesh

Running MPS also runs MRP type PD materials

Hello experts,
In ECC 6.0, we have certain critical FINI materials to run with MPS ( ie type M0) while there are other FINI materials ( non critical) to run on MRP ( ie type PD).
The issue we are finding is that ECC running MPS even for other MRP driven FINI materials in Tcode : MD40 ( with the Process MRP materials field checked). What we actually need is that MPS run for only those FINI materials that have MPS (ie type M0) & it's direct subassemblies of those materials which are MRP type PD.
We do not want the MPS run to drive MRP for other FINI materials that have MRP type PD.
I have checked SAP notes and they had similar issue & hence have a resolution note for earlier versions of SAP ( 3.0 to 4.6 versions). So this issue seems to be occouring again in ECC.
Has anyone else come across this issue in ECC 6.0? If yes how it was resolved.
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,
Just to understand the query better, can you let me know why you dont want the MPS run to drive the MRP run for other finished parts which are marked for MRP run? Is it that these parts are not to be planned?

Vivek

Also which SAP notes did you refer to?
