Rounding Value in Safety stock

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me about rounding value in Safety stock calculation.
e.g. If safety stock is 1.710 then system should round it up to 2.0. what are the settings/customization requried to do so.
Waiting for your earliest response.
Thanks,
Ambarish.

Hi Edgar,
The requirement is...When safety stock is calculated then in material master MRP2 view it should round off the value automatically.
e.g.
Safety Stock = Factor R* sq root (RLT/7 * MAD) where RLT = 7/6*(Pur Processing time + GR processing Time) + Planned delivery time.
So the value of safetystock comes in decimal/fraction and the requirement is it should round off to next level.
if value = 1.710 then system/logic should round off to 2.0.
MRP type = VZ
Thanks & Regards,
Ambarish

Safety Stock Value

Hi all,
I am using the BAPI - 'BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2' to get Safety Stock Value. I am passing the key figure as 'SAFTY'. But I am getting an error as 'An error occurred in data selection'.
What might be the reason for this?
Thanks and Regards.

Create a new KF for Safety Stock Stock as a permanent object and add it in the planning area administration
Remember to Change the macros associated with this Key Figutre. There is a macro that does the macro calcultion for Safety Stock
There would be other macros as well which use Safety as a basis

Sweth, you are asking for consulting, and in my opinion it is way beyond what can or should be reasonable to achieve in such a forum. You are asking complex questions, that most probable have more than one possible answer.
I suggest that you get on-site help from a knowledgeable and experienced consultant. These are crucial business issues, and should be dealt seriously.

Safety Stock Issue

Hello Gurus,
We are in SCM 4.0 and currently we are facing an issue in safety stock calculation.
We run a macro to calculate the safety stock. The safety stock for a particular bucket is calculated by the sum of total demand of next consecutive 4 buckets. The problem is that the macro works fine if we select a single product-location combination but when we select a product at multiple locations combination (aggregated level) the macro doesnt work. The value is not displayed in the planning book. However, we could see the total demand value for that particular bucket.
Hope I am clear and please help me on this.
Thanks,
Sai

Hello all,
I have a quick question:
Do we need to maintain the data at Location-Product Group level to go for Aggregated Safety Stock Planning?
Let me explain my case:
We have the following selections at Location-Product level:
Sel1: Prod1 at Loc1
Sel2: Prod1 at Loc2
Sel3: Prod1 at Loc3
When I make either of these selections individully in the Planning book the safety stock macro works fine but if I make any of these two selections or all the three selections at a time, then the values does not show up at the Total but I can see the values at 'Details' level if I select Location at the Header Information.
We are thinking of Aggregated Safety Stock Planning and We do not mainatain the data at Group level. Can we still go for Aggregated Safety Stock Planning?
Could anyone give me some suggestions on this?
Thanks
Sai

Report on Rorder Point and a safety stock

Hi,
Pls adivse, by which tcode, i can get a report on Rorder Point and a safety stock for the material.
ie. my client want to have a report abt the material status for reorder stock

Hi,
The safety stock and re-order point are plant specific details
The values can be checked from SE16 - table MARC

Rounding value for direct procurement

Hi,
I an sourcing the same material from another plant within the same client. The materiale is some times purchased as a standard material using rounding value and going to stock. But, in some cases the material is procured as direct procurement. When purchasing for direct procurement will it then be possible not to use the rounding value but just order the exact quantity?
thanks,
Anders

Hi Andres,
I think, you do not need to take any action on this requirement. SAP works the way you wanted, by standard. For example, you have a setup with a vendor (may be via info record or material master itself may have rounding qty etc)...not a problem. The parameters you use in material master will control for procurement process either triggered from planning (or production ) or manual purchases. When you create a SO# and if it triggers a purchase requisition, it sends exact quantity required only, into the preqs. By standard SAP config, the message about rounding rules is just warning. I don't think you will be stuck with this message when you try to convert the 3rd party Preq to PO. Even if there is a message, it must just warning.
Let me know with these inputs, if you test both types of PO#s, how it goes.
Regards

Dynamic Safety Stock and Calculate based on past consumption

Hello experts,
I have set up my coverage profile in configuration for dynamic safety stock. However, the value is going off of the current net requirements in the system. How do I set it up so that the target stock level (DSS) is determined by 30 days of our past consumption and so many days of near future requirements?
I assume I need to set up the MRP 3 tab in a specific way. These materials that will be using dynamic safety stock are not forecasted, therefore, the material master had PD as MRP type (not VM or VV as discussed for setting DSS with forecasted materials), lot size of DY, and the coverage profile.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Hi,
Hi the configuration should be like this..
First Create range of actual coverage profile SPRO and enter the following data.
Period Indicator - M
Number of Periods - 2
Type of Period length - Working days
Number of days per period - 30
Range of coverage in the first period - target - 30
Then assign this profile to the material in MRP3 screen in the field range of coverage profile field.

Maintain plant specific safety stock

How to maintain plant specific safety stock for the same material.

Hi swetha
First Go to T : code : MM02 : change Material
Enter plant number for which u want to enter Safety stock
Goto MRP-2
Net Requirement calculation
enter safety stock
Use of safety stock :
Safety stock
Specifies the quantity whose purpose is to satisfy unexpectedly high demand in the coverage period.
The risk of shortfalls is reduced by having a safety stock.
Procedure:
With manual reorder point planning, you can enter a value in the material master record. However, it is merely for information.
With automatic reorder point planning and forecast-based planning, the system determines and adjusts the value automatically for forecasting purposes.
Hope ths solve ur problem
please reward points

Dynamic Safety Stock - Custom logic

Hi,
Are there any exits / enhancements where we can build customer specific logic to periodically update Safety Stock values in the Material Master (MRP Area)?
Thanks.
Raj

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
We want to maintain a Minimum Stock Level at various Storage Locations periodically. However the value is computed based on certain historical values (and not mere consumption). There is an industry logic which will compute this figure.
We need to find a solution to compute this figure as per logic and use it in MRP for planning along with other requirements (such as Reservations, Customer Orders, Forecast etc.,). Since the count of parts and associated historical values are quite high, computing this offline is tedious.
Is there a better way to address this without Z - Devpt.?
I can provide any other info if reqd.
Thanks.
Raj

Automatic Safety Stock

Hi Experts,
Currently MRP type is PD & Planning is make to order for finished goods.
I have requirement, wanted system to calculate safety stock automatically based on consumption value for Raw material.
Material should be further Planned in the same way, But if stock falls below safety stock , it creates a Purchase requistion.
System should calculate the safety stock rather than Manually entered.
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek Kumar

Hi Robert,
I don't know whether this will suffice your requirements, but actually it sounds like "Dynamic Range of Coverage".
It is like you want to keep the stock of certain materials as safety stock (coverage of requirements in exigencies) for certain number of days, weeks etc.
For example, one material has got average consumption (depenedent on main requirement of parent materials) requirements of 50 pc. per day and you want to keep a supply of 3 days in hand to cover unforeseen reqmnts, then based on this consumption pattern system will automatically calculate 50 * 3 = 150 pc. extra as safety stock, often called Dynamic Safety Stock.
As & when the main requirements change for parent materials, the depenedent requirement also changes, and hence the dynamic safety stock. For example, if the demand has increased such that average consumption per day comes out to be 80 pc., then calculation of safety stock will be 80 * 3 = 240 pc. extra (as you always want to cover 3 days requirements).
If this is your requirement, then try configuring this feature by creating suitable profiles for Range of coverage (depending on certain groups of materials, like for some you want to get coverage for 2 days, some for 5 days, some for 1 day and so on). And assign the suitable profile to corresponding material master. This will work with normal PD type of MRP without any tweaking.
Reply whether it worked for you.

Minimum safety stock

Hi,
I maintained minimum safety stock as-50 in MRP2 view while creating material master, my client requirement is this minimum safety stock should not be issued at any cost, without enhancement from abap consultant i need to maintain this safety stock.
can anyone help me to cose this issue.

Hi,
Minimum Safety Stock
The quantity that defines the lower limit for safety stock. This value cannot be exceeded.
Use
Defining a lower limit can influence the following:
material master data maintenance
The safety is checked to see if it is greater or equal to this lower limit.
forecasting
The lower limit is checked if you use an availability indicator which shows, according to customizing settings, if the safety stock is to be calculated again in a forecast.
If the safety stock is lower than this level in forecasting, the safety stock is automatically increased to the value of the lower level.
Dependencies
The safety stock must always be greater or equal to this lower level.
Hope this helps.
Revert if you need more details.
Regards,
Tejas

Issue with -ve safety stock not allowing items of smaller demand to be isue

We have a material with a safety stock value of 300 with only 119 available in inventory. Looking at MD04 the available qty immediately goes negative (-181). We have requirement of 30 but was prevented by the system from ussing the material - no iventory available message. The workaround, which is not acceptable, was to reduice the safety stock to zero, create the delivery and then re-instate the safety stock level back to 300.
So the issue is that material could not be issued to PrdOrds. Is there a possibilty that we have some missing config / master data settings that are preventing the issuing of material when safety stock is factored in and available quantity is less than zero?

From planning perspective, there are two options available for your scenario.
You may try if the dynamic safety stock works for you. You may have to configure the minimum, maximum and target stock levels. The system calculates the average daily requirements of the material and determines the proposals.
If your business process demands only static ss, you can configure the % share of ss that can be used for smaller requirements. Check the config node Production >> MRP >> Planning >> MRP calculation >> Stocks >> Define SS availability. This way the smaller requirements would be considered for use from SS by planning. You will have to define the % share of SS that can be used by planning based on MRP groups.

Automatic reorder point and safety stock caluclation- MRP type:V2

Hi,
I want the system to calculate reorder point and safety stock. To simulate this i created one material with
MRP type:V2, service level as 97%, Forecast model:D,Hist. period:12,Forecast periods:12, and I entered
the historical value for past 12 months as 100 nos in material master.
04.2009     100
03.2009     100
02.2009     100
01.2009     100
12.2008     100
11.2008     100
10.2008     100
09.2008     100
08.2008     100
07.2008     100
06.2008     100
05.2008      100
Then I went to MP30 and executed the forcase.When I checkd the material master the system has calculated the reorder point as 14 nos. But there is no value updated in safety stock field.
Now I have two questions.
1) How the system has arrived the reorder point value as 14 nos.
2) Why there is no safety stock updated in material master.
Could u please clarify this.
Thanks and Regards
Purushothaman

Hi,
This is further to my preivous mail. I have changed the consumption values and now i am getting the safety stock.
MRP type:V2, service level as 97%, Forecast model:D,Hist. period:12,Forecast periods:12, and I entered
the historical value for past 12 months as.
04.2009     100
03.2009     80
02.2009     110
01.2009     85
12.2008     90
11.2008     95
10.2008     125
09.2008     90
08.2008     90
07.2008     92
06.2008     101
05.2008     100
After executing the forecase the sytem has calculated the below parameter.
Basic value:95.759
MAD:11.448
Safety stock:10.252
Reorder point:23.658.
Can anyone explain me how these calculation arrived.
Thanks and regards

Suppression of Re-Order Point Safety Stock Exception Messages

Hi There!
Hope someone can help!?
I need to be able to suppress MRP Exception Message 96 - Qty Under Safety Stock but for PD Only.
Is this possible?
Cheers,
Karl

Hi There!
We have lots of Raw materials controlled by MRP Type PD, which have Safety Stock Value.
However, quite often although the actual stock is lower than the Safety stock Planners have lots of messages (96 - Below safety stocks). However, although Purchase order reciepts may be late, there isn't actually a problem. As When the PO Reciepts actually happen there is enough stock to satisfy actual demand.
We would like to put many of these Raw materials on Re-Order Point Planning, and manage. But we would like to ignore the (96 - Below Safety Stock) for Normal Items.
Hence, Planners have exception messages for REAL Priorities.
Hope this explains all!
Cheers,
Karl
