Schedule lines in Availability Check Delivery Proposal screen

Hi,
This is in continuation to an earlier thread that I had created about Sales Orders not getting CIFfed across to APO. I have a situation in a different system where this is being configured for data transfer. The problem here is not about CIF. All issues pertaining to CIF were addressed in the earlier thread.
This question is primarily about schedule lines of the sales order not opening up for confirmation in 'APO Availability Check: Delivery Proposal' screen as in this link: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B78qjSKXsqbeNDFjMzlkM2MtMDNlOS00ODFmLWJmYjktYmU0ZDU5Zjk0ZDlh&sort=name&layout=list&num=50&authkey=CO2E0ZYN
It is perhaps some config that is changed or missing that is causing this problem.
Kind regards,
Srikanth

Srikanth,
This is what the screen looks like when the ATP you have configured cannot confirm anything. The only button available to you is to proceed without confirming the order.
An example of the types of reasons would be no allocation available, no stock available, no supply elements available, too many existing requirements, etc etc. Improper or incomplete APO GATP configuration could unfortunately also be the culprit.
You have two icons at the top, check instructions and Allocation. Click on these buttons, and they may give you clues as to what is causing your problems.

Schedule line and availibility check

Hello,
I have three questions ;
Q1) my schedule line category is set to " no avalibility check".
Q1A) How does the system confirms the stock in sales order or in delivery if schedule line category is set to "no avalilibity check"
Q1B) does the sales order and delivery appear in MD04 is schedule line category is set to "no availbility check".
Q2)my schedule line category is set to " no materials planing ?
Q2A) How does the system confirms the stock in sales order or in delivery if schedule line category is set to "no materials planning"
Q2B)does the sales order and delivery appear in MD04 is schedule line category is set to "no materials planning"
Q3) what is the relationship between MD04 and MRP run. Does all the sales orders or deliveries appear in MD04 after MRP run ?
request pls answer pointwise for clarity
regards
sachin

hi Sonu,
Q/3 ) relationship between MRP run & MD04
>The function of MRP is to plan the requirement of a header material as well as for the dependent requirements.This is done with the transaction code MD02.All the requirements are pulled up and planned.the outcome of the run will be a report which will show the details of the planning like
>Materials planned
>Materials with new exceptions
.MRP run is therefore static.
>MD04 shows you the stock requirement list of the material.after you run the MRP for a particular material this screen will show you the requirement for header materials,
dependent requirement,available stock,the reservations made.if the stock is less u can either generate PR for externally procured or create prodn order for internal mfred.
this is dynamic i.e whenever u run this t code u get the latest update on the status of that material.
u can't see deliveries in MDO4 only reservations
SO are not seen directly but as a customer requirement and when u run MRP they are changed to planned order.this planned order can be seen in MD04 from where u can either create PR or production order
Q/2B
"no planning " is used for those items for which u don't want to run MRP.certain materials are such that the controller can manage w/o running MRP i.e the SO comes and the product is either delivered or produced w/o running MRP.
hope this helps,
regards.

Sales order - Schedule line or Availability check

Dear friends,
I have one requirement on sales order availability check or schedule line.
When i enter material and quantity in sales order it should not determine stock from one storage location (0003 storage location for damaged goods) through availability check or schedule line whatever.
Can i handle this through any routine or functional config. kindly suggest.
Regards,
Praveen Lobo

Dear Praveen
Dont maintain the storage location 0003 in MMSC. Also, in material master, you dont maintain the "Delivering Plant" so that you will have to input manually in sale order. If Plant is not flowing automatically in sale order, your storage location will also not flow.
thanks

Changing Schedule Line Category after checking Item availability

Hi Expert,
I would like to change the schedule line category according to the result of item availability check, i.e. change to another self defined schedule line category in case confirmed qty < order qty.
Could any one please suggest where I can implement this logic? Which user-exit is required to modify? Thanks a lot!

hi,
U can change the SCH line category manually in sales order
Menu path:
Spro-->Img> sd> sales -> sales documents>sch lines-> assign sh line categories---->
here find ur current combination
eg:
ITem cat+ MRP TYPE= SCH LINE CAT + MANUAL SCH LINE CAT
TAN + ND=CN+---here u give teh sch lien cate u want----
this will aloow u changing sch line cat manually in sales order

Two Schedule Lines after MATP check

All,
We are doing MATP check in Sales Order. After the MATP check, the Sales Order is confirming with two Schedule Lines, the first line is confirming with 0 qty and the second line which is created after two days and is confirming with actual Sales Order required Qty. This is happening for all the materials and at any requested date you put in Sales Order.
We further analysed that during the MATP check the Bulk component availability is actually getting delayed but we verified the Stock is fully available for the Bulk as per the requirement date. Master data are setup as per the MATP requirements.
Also we checked, and do not see any issue because of Pick,pack, loading times or delivery & Transportation scheduling config in R/3.
Please provide your suggestions.
Thanks,

Availability check box at schedule line level and requirement class level

Hi All
What is the significance of availability check field at schedule line level and requirement type level.
If I remove the check box at schedule line level, then there won't be any availability check carried out in the sales order, even though in requirement class it is checked. Is it for doing availability once the requirement is passed to MRP...
In make to stock scenario, no availability check is active at schedule line level.
scenario 1. stock is 0 in plant, when i place an order for 10 quantity, does system give any confirmed quantity on so and so date...or the confirmed quantity will be zero or as there is no availability check carried out, it confirms 10 quantity on customer requested delivery date and the time of creation of delivery, it gives an error message stating zero quantity is available. which one is correct in all the above.
In make to order scenario, no availability check is active at schedule line level.
order was created for 10 qty, as there is no availability check active, does the system give some date based on the lead times maintained in the material master or not?
Regards
Sree

Hi sreekar
The significance of availability check at schedule line level is to determine weather availability check and TOR should be carried out for sales orders or not.
If you remove check box at schedule line level , availability check and TOR wont be carried out at sales order level.
Coming to the scenario you said , make to stock , i think the availability check you are using is 01 make it 02. which is planned requirements. and stratergy group as 10. in MRP3 view in MMR. .
as the availability check u have put 01 & stratergy group as 10 availability check doesnt carry
coming to the scenario 2 , if the stock is 0 in plant and if you create a sales order, then the confirmed quantity should be 0 and that particular order will go to backorder processing.
sometimes it confirms the ordered quantity as the confirmed qunatity, and it gives a confiremed delivery date on which the stock is confirmed , but that date is a tentative date.
all these unconfirmed orders will go to backorders. once the qunatity is confirmed automatically , delivery date also will be done
Coming to scenario 3 , when you create MTO order there will be availability check checked at the schedule line level. can you tell wat is the schedule line you are getting is it CP or ND?
for schedule lines , ND - no availability check will be there , PD - availability check will be there
Note: plz check 1st the availability check you have entered in MMR , if it is 01 make it as 02. and then run these cycles.
Reward points if useful and if Any queries let me know

Availability check to restricted stock

Dear all,
Order is created for the material which is marked for deletion but not archived. The material has some available quantity in the Unrestricted stock and it has to be consumed before archiving the material.
If a order is created, the material has to get consumed for the available quantity in the Unrestricted stock and if the requested quantity is more than the available quantity, the order should create confirmed schedule lines only for the available quantity and no schedule line should be created for the quantity which is not available in the Unrestricted stock.
How this check can be obtained. Appreciate your ideas.
Thanks,
Shiva.

Hi Siva ,
Splitting of the schedule lines during availability check happens when system is unable to allocate existing stock to current sales order as they are allocated to other salesorders and STOs, in such situation system confirms a future date based on either RLT , or GR processing time of a PO etc..
The first step for you is to use transaction CO09 / MD04 and identify and remove dependecies and reservation from other old sales orders and STOs. Once this happens you will be able to allocate the entire freed stock to a single sales order or STO.
You can also use backorder processing transactions V_RA and Co06 to allocate stolen stock from various sales orders to a single sales order or STO. Rescheduling using V_V2 may also be helpful.

Reg TOR & Availability Check

SD material Determination based on availability check
For SD material Determination you can create a Substitution reason and on the Strategy field, the following info. is available:
Product selection in the background is performed on the basis of the availability check.
We want to have the material determination only in case on material shortage. We expect the Substitution reason to give us this functionallity. It does not hovever take the availabilty into account before substitution.
We thought the worse case is to create a ABAP which is linked to the "requirement" field in the Procedure (OV13).
Has anyone had the same requirement? Is this a bug or just incorrectly documented?
I also encountered this abnormally recently using material determination. In order to combat the problem, the first product substitution should be for the original material. I've illustrated this below:
Original Product: ABC
Substitutes: DEF, XYZ
In order to perform product substitution ONLY in the case of ATP failure for product ABC, structure the Material Determination record as follows:
Material Entered: ABC Substitutes: ABC
DEF
XYZ
There seems to be a devaition at availability check and or on a conceptual note still.
Availability check can be configured both at requiremnt class and at the schedule line categories level.
Whilst the availabilty check at the requirement class level via global and mandatory configuration the schedule line catgry availability check deals with the order.
It is mandatory that the reqmnt class is flagged off for avlblty check and the schdelu line cat need not be.
The following are the mandatory for Availability check to happen--
1. Must be swithced on at the requirment class level and at the schedule line level.
2. Reqmnt type must exist by which a requiremnt class can be found
3. There must exist a plant and is defined
4.Checking group must be defined in Material Master records(it controls whthr the system is to create individual or collective reqmnt)
A combination of checking gropup and checking rule will determine the scope of availbaility check.
Hope this will help.
Thanks,
Raja

For performing availability check while creating sales order you need to maintain configuration settings.
Availability check can be configured both at requiremnt class and at the schedule line categories level.

Disable Availability Check on Sales Order But Activate on Outbound Delv

Greetings all experts !
Currently, there's a new request to create a new processes whereby during the sales order creation, no availability check will be in place but material will still be posted to production planning ( TOR ).
Availability check instead should be activated during the creation of outbound delivery.
I have already configured in such a way that the relevant sch line item ( VOV6 ) - availability check is unchecked and TOR is checked.
But during creation of sales order, availability check is still in place for material specified.
I have check on the necessary requirement class and requirement type settings. Fyi, requirement class used - availability check is ticked. Could this be the reason even though i have disabled availability check on sch line ?
I have tried to untick the availability check setting in requirement class ( OVZG ), and while this can disable the availability check in Sales order, but that configuration will also disable availability check in outbound delivery.
My queries :
1 ) What are the configurations that I need to look into to cater to the above request. To disable availabilty in sales order but instead, run availability in outbound delivery ?
2 ) Is there any way I can disable the availability check on based on sales order type using userexit or function module ?
3 ) Is there any additional function module/bapi/userexit that i can implement to force outbound delivery to run availability check ?
My apologies for such lenghty message here but really really need some valuable feedback here as I'm totally at lost with the new requirement for now.
Many thanks in advance.
Warmest Regards,
Edie O

In SPRO
goto SD>Schedule line>Define schedule line categories
here check if the schedule line category associated with your mentioned order has a flag ticked for Availability.
Availability check for sales
You must carry out an availability check for the following transaction.
The indicator is determined as a proposal in conjunction with the respective requirements type. It can be changed in individual shipping transactions. However, only one restriction is effective.
Example
You do not set an indicator for maintaining the requirements type. In this case, no availability check is carried out. This is independent of the selection in the respective transaction.
You set an indicator for maintaining the requirements type. In this case you can decide whether or not you require an availability check for the relevant transaction.
reward points if it helps

Why schedule line category must needed

Hello Experts,
I gone through several threads in the forum but still confused.
I got the info like...
It confirms the
1. confirmed date of delivery
2. confirmed quantity of del
3. Availability check
4. Transfer of requirement
a.purchase requisition type
b. delivery block
c. movment type of goods
The Schedule line contains the delivery date and quanitity in a slaes document item. This is only a one line explanation for your understanding purpose only.Tcode VOV6.
Now please kindly explain me with an example without slc what will not happen.
one Item can have many schedule lines . Why we need many SLC for one item please tell me with example.
Thanks in advance for all the replies

Hi,
If you take a sales order document, it is divided into three parts:
Header Level information :
This consist of the overall information of the sales document, for example Net value of the sales order and the like.
Item level information :
This consist of information at item level, like Item 1 has a material with a net price so and so, item 2 has another material with another net price and so and so.
Schedule line information :
This gives the information of the time a sales order has to be delivered to the customer, to view this select the item you want to view and to the menu under item >> Schedule line. This date is actually calculated from the delivery date in the Sales document.
Schedule line Agreement :
Use the T.code VA31 (and choose Scheduleline agreement) : This agreement lets you to predetermine scheduling of different materials with in a given period of time (This is same like the other contracts).
First enter the material with quantity say for example Material 1 Qty: 100, go to Edit from the menu >> Item >> Schedule line
There select within the time period defined two dates, say for example on 12: 01: 2005 40 quantity and on 13: 01: 2005 rest 60 (The qty has to be same as the one in the sales order) .
Once this is done you have created a schedule line agreement.
Call this agreement in your sales order (with reference) and use them.
Imp: You will be able to deliver only 40 qty on the 12th and 60 qty on the 13th, even though the sales order is for qty 100
Best Regards,
Amit.
Note: Schedule Line Category is also needed for Movement Type Determination and Availability Check.
SM30 - Table View - V_TVEPZ -> Assign schedule line categories
First check the Proposed schdule line category (SchLC) - double click on the line item
VOV6 - Maintain the schedule line categories - double click on the line item
For example, you can control the default returns movement type.
651 - two steps - with a transfer posting using 453
653 - one steps - direct post to unrestricted used
Control the Transaction Flow (tick to activate the function)

GATP scenario and Rescheduling Schedule line dates

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me where and how can I reschedule the Schedule line dates available from a GATP check. My requirement is as follows:
For a GATP material, after the GATP check, I need to push the Goods Issue date AHEAD based on the DAY and TIME maintained in the Route Schedule id (VL51, VL52, VL53) for the Route, Transportation Group, Customer, Shipping Point and Shipping conditions.
I have presently coded my development in the Enhancement option after the FM RV_AVAILABILITY_CHECK in the include FV45VFMV_MVERF_PRUEFEN. Here I have called the FM APO_SCHEDULING to get the new set of Schedule line dates by passing the Goods Issue date that I calculate based on teh Route Schedule id.
But the problem here is that the Schedule line dates that I get here have different time intervals from the Schedule line dates that I get normally in a GATP process in a standard process. Logically I feel, these time intervals should be the same while the Enhancement is in place or not.
Please provide me inputs if anybody had faced this issue...
Thanks in advance,
Susanth Kumar

Hi
When I see the schedule line in the sales order where in the qty in the delivered qty column (second column from the confirmed qty column) is updated item wise irrrespective of the delivery done as per scheduleline date.
It means though the delivery and PGI is not done for the date 15.12.2008, but the qty in the delivery qty column is updated and the balace to to be delivered shows for the last date.
So here iam able to deliver only on the last date i.e. 25.01.2009 or at a later date for the schedule line date missing in between and not on the specific date.
Is this how SAP standard works - I was wondering why i cannot deliver any schedule line qty and date later after delivering quantities of the subsequant schedule lines.
