Rounding Profile in Quota Arrangement

Hello all Gurus,
Can somebody please explain me how to use the rounding profile in quota arrangement? When I am trying to give a rounding profile in quota arrangement in MEQ1 transaction, the system is asking me to create the rounding profile. Can somebody please explain me how to create a rounding profile in SPRO?
Kindly give me the details explanation and steps involved in creating/maintaining a rounding profile value in quota arrangement.
Thanks and Regards,
Umakanth

Hi ,
If the order qty is 44, operation qty should become 3 because 21 + 21 = 42 and one more 21 should come into picture.
Currently it is becoming 2 and this is wrong.
Increasing decimal place will not hep.

Hi,
You can maintain following fields -
1) Initial Screen - Material / Plant
2) Overview - Valid to / Minimum quantity above which the splitting will happen
3) Select line & then go to Item
4) Item Level -
     QAI - Blank
     P - Procurement type
     S - Special procurement type
     Vendor - Vendor Code
     PPI - Own manufacturing plant, if material is to be procured from in house
     Maximum Qty - Maximum qty, after which the quota arrangement is not valid
     Max. / Min. Lot Size - Maximum or minimum lots size for PRs
     Rounding Profile - Same as material master
     1x - Check if the vendor is to be considered only once during single MRP run
     Maximum Release Qty - Maximum quantity, which a vendor can supply during given time frame (for example - 1 Week / 1 Month)
     N / P - Specify time frame which applies to maximum release qty.
Hope this helps

Quota Arrangement || Allocated Quantity

Hi All,
I am currently dealing with two issues related to Quota Arrangement which are as follows:
I have a product in APO on which inbound quota arrangement is set. The product is procured from a vendor and purchase requisitions are created on it. The validity of the quota is from 01.01.2000 to 31.12.2014. Now as per the business requirement we need to extend the validity till 31.12.2015. In APO we can't extend the validity of the quota. The other option is to delete this quota and create the new quota arrangement of desired validity. But the challenge is 32,654 quantity is already allocated to it( in Allocated quantity field, which is as per my understanding the sum quantity of purchase requisitions and purchase orders). If I delete the quota what will be the affects of it ???. How should I proceed with this issue ???
I have integrated a new product in APO and I am trying to arrange a quota for the same. I created it successfully. There are purchase requisitions and purchase orders created on it. However, I can see 0 in the allocated quantity field. Can anyone help me in understanding the reason behind 0 Allocated Quantity ???
Thanks,
Swapnil

Dear Sethuraman,
P - Type of procurement (Internal manufacturing, External Procurement).
S - Special procurement type. For example consignment / sub-contracting.
Vendor - Number of Vendor Master
PPI - Your internal plant from which you will be manufacturing the material.
Ver. - Production version.
Quota - The quota percentage in which the required quantity is to be splitt.
Allocated Qty - Total quantity from all purchase requisitions, purchase orders, release orders, and scheduling agreement schedules allocated to a given source of supply. (The quantities of quota-allocated planned orders are also taken into account.)
Maximum Quantity - Max qty which is to be assigned to this vendor.
Quota Base quantity - If you get a new vendor in the quota arrangement, the quota base quantity is to be entered here to avoid all requirements being assigned to the new vendor.
Max & Min Lot Size - The lot size related to this vendor.
Rounding Profile -
1X - Mark tick here of the vendor is to be assigned only one lot during a MRP run. (may be due to capacity restriction).
Maximum Release quantity - Max qty the vendor should be assigned per MRP period.
No. - Number of periods for which the Max release qty relates.
P - Period to which this qty relates.
Pr - Priority determination sequence
Determining the Quota Base Quantity
The quota base quantity is used only when you include a new source in an existing quota arrangement.

Regarding Quota Arrangment

Dear Gurus,
I have to activate quota arrangement in our organization. I have done the following steps to active the quota arrangement, 1)Activated the Quota arrange usage in material master.
2).Activated the Source list in material master. 3)Created the product requirement
4).Maintained the quota arrangement for Vendor X and Vendor Y 50 percent accordingly
5).Material requirement planning - MRP run for particular product
As per the quota arrangement in this stage PR should create for Vndr X and Vndr Y. But it is not happing.
Your answer will be highly appreciated.

Quota arrangement - winning contract is not auto assign in SC

My Problem: Winning contract is not auto assign to Shopping cart
I created a Quota Arrangement (QA). It contains 2
contracts, for example in line item 1, contain Contract with Supplier
'A', with target percentage of 60%. In line item 2, contain Contract with
Supplier 'B', with target percentage of 40%. I did not specify any quotabase quantity.
For your info, the contract for Supplier 'A" is a Purchasing Contract,
with target value of 80 (currency Malaysian Ringgit). Contract for
Supplier 'B' has target value of 20 (currency Malaysian Ringgit). When Icreate a Shopping Cart, with quantity 5 (each-EA) and price per unit is
2
(Malaysian Ringgit), total is MYR10. When I go to Source of Supply tab,
the system showed 2 suppliers from the 2 contracts. It did not
automatically assigned to the winning contract. We still have to choose
which contract to be assigned. I created another SC after that until theContract exceeded quantity, but the system does not proposed winning
contract automatically. Please help.
Cheers
AIN

yes, the contract have company code

How to calculate the quota base quantity in quota arrangement?

Hi all,
As we all know, when a new supplier is added in the quota arrangment, we take the help of quota base qunatity so that the new supplier does not get any unfair advantage over the existing suppliers. Would you please help me on how to calculate the quota base quantity or on what basis the quota base quantity is calculated?*
Regards,
Ranjan

Dear,
Quota arrangement divides the total requirements generated over a period of time among the sources of supplied by assigning a quota.
Quota u2013 quota is equal to a number and its represents the proportionate of requirements. Total quota of all the vendors is equal to 100% of requirements.
This quota arrangement is also specific to material and plant level.
Quota rating = quota allocate quantity + quota base quantity / quota.
Quota based quantity used only when a new vendor introduced.
In the as on date situation, the minimum quota ratings will considered as preferred vendor.
The 2 vendors has 2 same quota rating, the vendor who is having the highest quota will considered first.
In the running quota, a new source of supply is included. (In situation of short supply) including a new source not means to reduce the quota for existing.

Syed Hussain.

Assign Source of Supply User Exit with Quota Arrangements in ME57 and ME56

Hi there,
We are using Quota Arrangements to define Vendor rebate levels and we have enabled User Exit EXIT_SAPLMEQR_001 to provide a more informative popup to replace standard Source of Supply popup as need to display current allocation quantities and % allocation fulfiled.
This User Exit is invoked during Assign Source of Supply during PReq processing (More precisely during Assign Source of Supply in ME51n and Automatic Source of Supply in ME57 and ME56) which all works fine.
When used in ME51n and Source of Supply Assigned and PReq saved, the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is successfully updated with the relevant amount
When using ME56 or ME57 to Automatically Assign source of Supply via the PReq list, the User Exit is invoked correctly and on selecting Vendor and saving the PReq is update correctly, however the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is NOT updated with the relevant amount
I have searched SAP Notes and debuged with limited success but cannot find evidence as to why this difference is happening - I assume that it has something to do with User Exit but any advice gratefully received if anyone else has experienced this issue?

Quota arrangement in R/3 for APO generated planned order materials?

Quota arrangement for the planned order materials generated from APO and when
it is at the inbound side of R/3 while in CIF i.e.
u2022 Once the Planned order is created in APO and when it is at the inbound side of R/3 while in CIF u2013 the system will first check in the table(EQUK) against the material and plant whether there is any valid u201CQuota arrangement numberu201D(EQUK-QUNUM) .
u2022 Then from the table (EQUIP) against the u201CQuota arrangement numberu201D the system needs to calculate the percentage quota(from QUOTE field) of the material concerned against each production version.
u2022 Finally the Planned order of the material needs to be converted into more than one Planned orders as per the production versions and in the ratio as mentioned in the quota arrangement.
Actually Functionality exists today in R/3 whereby MRP will generate more than 1 planned order if production version quota arrangements exist. For example if via MEQ1 a quota arrangement exists to split requirements 60-40 between production version 1 and production version 2 then MRP will generate 2 planned orders using the 60-40 split.
Does this still occur if APO generates the order materials and CIFs it to R/3?
*I mean I had a requirement where APO generated planned orders to be split automatically and the correct PVs(Production version EQUP-VERID) to be assigned if quotas(EQUP-QUOTE) exist in R/3 side??*
please help me asap this will b really appreciated and high points will be given....

Rounding profile in the material master doesn't copy to the inforecord

RT,
Dear all, have you ever encountered this kind of problem?
Wishing get the answer as soon as possible from you!

HI,
Did you customize teh rounding profile appropriately in SPRO?? you need to maintain them. moreover this should happen even before a PO is created, i.e while a requirement generates. the rounding takes place during planning run in MRP

How to know if a MRP run element is using Quota Arrangement and lot size?

Hi all,
Two questions:
A) How to determine if a source is actually pulled from Quota Arrangement?
I am wondering if there is anyway from ABAP table or from Transaction (i.e. Purchasing Order) in which the source is pulled from a Quota Arrangement?
We use scheduling agreement, PIR and source list, and as well as Quota Arrangement for our purchasing.
I just want to know how, from system (table and transaction), to find out the source is from quota, not from PIR or others.
B) Quota Arrangement still can work properly if lot-size procedure's splitting quota indicator not Checked?
If my the lot-size procedure which I am using for a material does not activate the splitting quota indicator, it means split quota will not work during MRP run.
But does this also mean that quota arrangement will not be working for this particular material even if I have create a a quota arrangement object (via MEQ1) for this material?
Thanks
Daniel

Tomek,
If I want to use the split quota, it seems there is some pre-requisite.
If you go to MEQ1 and press F1's on the "Minimum qty split" column, and you will notice the following message.
Allocation by quota using splitting quotas is only carried out via a requirement planning run, subject to the following preconditions:
Through the appropriate entry in the field Quota arrangement usage (on the MRP data screen 2 or Purchasing screen) it must have been specified that a quota arrangement is to be applied in the planning run.
The indicator for the splitting quota must be set for the the lot-sizing procedure used for materials planning purposes in Customizing.
Hence, the quota arrangmeent still workable even if the lot-size does not have the spliting quota box checked?
Indicator: Splitting quota in short-term horizon
The indicator for splitting is used to determine that in the case of the selected lot size, the quota arrangement is to be applied using the splitting logic.
Use
If this indicator has been set, the lot is split up in the planning run according to the following formula:
quota for source X
Quantity for source X = --------------------- * requirement
sum of all quotas

Process Quota Arrangement

In SAP SRM 210 training material, page 334 (under main topic Unit 8: Sourcing), it is clearly stated that every requirement fitting a quota arrangement is sourced automatically by the system. But that did not happen in our system implementation (assuming standard SAP is used and no configuration needed). The picture captured in the training material SRM210, page 334 showed that, in Process Quota Arrangement, at Quota Arrangement item level, there are 3 columns in which values are updated. The value will be updated in the 3 columns after Purchase Order created with refer to quota based vendor selection. The 3 columns are Release Quantity, Current Percentage and Target Percentage. After PO created, system gives current release quantity and current percentage in the quota arrangement. However, in the real implementation, I did not see the column available for automatically update except the target percentage column. We want to see if the Quota Arrangement updates the column Release Quantity and Current Percentage but both columns are not updated. We use standard SAP-SRM7.0, but the result is not as the same in the SAP SRM210 training material, provided by SAP.
Anyone know the solution?

Usage of rounding profile in manual created production order

Hi,
We are making usage of various static rounding profiles.
For each of the materials produced, the rounding qty can be different, depending on the workcenters used to produce the materials (but for one material, there is only 1 rounding profile possible)
This works fine as long as we create planned orders via MRP runs (rounds up according the values set)
However, this rounding value is not taken into account (proposal, warning, error,..) when a user creates a planned order manually via MD11 or a production order via CO01.
Furthermore there is no warning message or whatever at the moment a user is converting a planned order (with a correct calculated rounded value) into a production order and manuaaly adapts the order qty.
As were are talking about a few 1000 different materials, the production planner cannot know all by heart and the rounding proposal would be excellent.
Anybody an idea how to implement this ?
Thanks and regards?

Hello again,
thanks for you prompt answer.
This would certainly solve our problem in case we would have always one and the same quantity to produce for a given material; but this is not always te case.
Perhaps it was not clearly explained in my first mail, but we would like to work with one (1) ROUNDING PROFILE per material.
Example, material A can be produced in multiples of 14; as such it should be possible for the production planner to create production orders for 14, 28, 42 , 56,..... pieces. When entering a order for eg. 25 pieces (= example the qty needed for a certain sales order), the system shpuld round to 28.
Other materials (having another rounding profile) are produced in multiples 3, im mulitples of 5,...
For this particular plant we have about 50 different rounding profiles in place.
So it somewhat logic that a production planner does not know all these by heart.
If you have a solution for this as well, please let me know.
Anyway already my thanks for feedback.
Regards.
Danny

While Creating PO with Quota Arrangement Quantity is not picking by % given

HI ALL.
created Quota arrangement with 2 vendors.
And assigined Percentages like 30 and 70 for this.
Created Purcahse requisition and purchase order.
But quanity with vendor percentages is not executing.
Regards.
Paramesh.
Advance Thanks.

Hi
Can you give more information. How you create the PR & PO manually or via MRP.
Quota arrangement works for automatic source determination and it has the highest priority.
Also Splitting quota is only possible with MRP.

Subcon Quota Arrangement behavior during MRP

Dear Gurus,
Currently, we have a scenario wherein during subcon process there can be 3 Vendors active. During MRP, we would like to have an output as per below:
Requirement: 1500
Vendor A: capacity 500 - priority 1
Vendor B: capacity 700 - priority 2
Vencor C: capacity 500 - priority 3
If I run MRP, I would like system to have PR's Vendor A with 500 then as the Vendors capacity is only 500 the remaining requirement should be passed on the succeding vendors. So from my example, Vendor B should have 700 and Vendor C should have 300.
Is this possible using Quota Arrangement. I was trying to test but I cannot get my desired result.
Please note that the settings in the material master is already set to Quota usage 4 and the lotsize is weekly with splitting quota activated.
Thanks,
Raymond

Hi,
Yes I have maintained below in MEQ1 just for testing but I cannot get the desired result:
                  Quota Percentage        Maximum Lot size      Priority
Vendor A:   100                                 500                           1
Vendor B:    100                                 700                          2
Vendor C:                                           500                          3
Set-up Weekly lotsize with splitting quota and quota usage 4.
But during MRP execution, I think the system splits the requirement quantity into 2 and distribute to Vendor A and Vendor B then if it reached maximum lotsize it proposed to vendor C.
our requirement is first to consider Vendor A then Vendor B then Vendor C according to maximum lot size and priority.
Any idea if this is possible?
Thanks,
Raymond
