Dear Subhjit,
You can get a mail whenever you stock goes below a defined limit with the help of Early Earning system.
Here you can define certain characterstics with predefined conditions like Stock < 1000 Kg, and whenever those conditions comes automatically a mail goes to Id given in follow up section.

Hi,
If the stock goes below the safety stock system wont allow you to draw the material and message come.
But for your requirement you can have a Z-report run in back ground checking the exisitng stock and safety stock periodically and it will send a report to respective user in box. With the help of ABAP it is possible.
Hope your requirement has been addressed.

Approval hierarchy to issue Minimum safety stock

Hi Guys,
We have a requirement to have an automated approval hierarchy for issuing the inventory below a safety stock limit defined. How can we achieve that. I know that there is some option as "minimum safety stock" in SAP, but we need that a workfklow to be activated when the stock reaches to this level and only after approval it should be allowd to be issued. Is it possible to implement?

Hi,
There is no approval concept in this case. But you may check the below work around, Activate availability check for the material. Then you may maintain the message M7181 as user specific and maintain it as error message for the users who are NOT supposed to issue the goods below the safety stock. Refer the thread: message to be make error for specific user id
You may create a program to find the materials with stock equal to safety stock and send the result. You may schedule the job in background with specific interval. Also refer the thread: Material alert workflow

Report for Reorder point, safety stock, current stock and fixed lot size

Hi,
Purchasing Dept. is looking for a report which can give list of materials falling below the reorder point, so that they can go ahead and create procurement proposals for those materials.
They also want to see the Reorder Point, Safety Stock, current stock and fixed lot size in the same report.
Let me know if there ia any standard report availbale which displays the same or any approach to get the same.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Shankar Goud.

Hi,
There is no standard report because this is meant to be managed by the MRP run.
The MRP lists show all materials that have a problem (such as stock below reorderpoint) but MRP generates requirements for these anyway and so all you need to do is to look for the MRP generated requirements (requisitions?) and you have your list?
Are you using MRP?
If so then please use the standard functions in MRP to get this.
If not, then WHY NOT?

Report on current stock and safety stock

Hi,
I want to have the report on current stock and safety stock.
In MC.9 it gives wrong safety stock. When I go to cross check the safety stock in material master & in MC.9 I see differences.
Thanks,
Kiran

You can user tcode MC.9 or MC.5 to know valuated stock available at given plant. Stock lying in Returns (MB52) will not be a part of this report as it non-valuated stock.
The stock in the accounting view of the material master considers stock at plant level including stock in Transit (Intra & Inter plant stock trasnfers) & special stock like stock issued to vendor , consigment stock etc which is valuated at plant level.
whereas and stock in the plant stock view of the material master does not consider such special stocks hence there will always difference in both veiws.
For Physical stock as on particular date you can consider MB5B report with radio button "Storage location/Batch Stock" wherein you will get Quantity issued & Qunatity received in those SLOC along with Opening stock & Closing stock for the specified period.
use tcode
MBLB to know stock at vendor.
MB54 - Consignment Stock.

Safety stock not covered by schedule lines in planning run

Hi !
In our organization we are trying to implement scheduling agreements and automatic creation of delivery schedule lines through MRP. We have MRP type PD and it considers the reservations created by PM orders and Production orders as requirement elements. When I do the planning run, it creates schedule lines for the PM order reservations and purchase requisition for safety stock. I need it to create schedule lines for all scenarios. Kindly help and suggest a solution.

Satya

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 T-code

Dear Experts,
What is the T-code for viewing all the safety stock which are maintained for all materials.
Regards,
Phalgun Patel

Hi,
Execute t-code se16, then enter MARC table and press enter. Enter list of materials or plants or this can be run without any selection parameter.
Execute it and look for field EISBE (Safety stock).

No planning file entry for safety stock

hello!
i do not have a planning file entry for safety stock. my material has required safety stock and no quantity on plant stock. therefore MD01 should create a purchase requisition - but is does not. i do not have an entry in the planning file as well.
any ideas what could be the reason?
thanks!
matthias

Hi,
- First of all check whether MRP is activated or not for Perticuller Plant.T.code is OMDU.
- Which MRP type is maintained for that material?
- In rare cases (Materials uploaded by LSMW using Badi) it is observed that system miss to make the entry in Planing File.So better will be set a Back Ground job to activate Planing file OMD0 or make manual entry using T.code MD20.

Dhaval

Dynamic update of safety stock in SAP R/3 systems (ECC 5.0 version)

Hi Friends,
Forgive my newness to SAP. Let me explain the problem i am facing in SAP. I want to identify the parameters to dynamically update the finished goods safety stock for each depot by SKU wise.
Current process :- Safety stock is calculated manually and updated by using Transaction code MS02 in the system.
It would be highly useful if i know the flow in SAP system and how the current process can be changed?
If more info is required i'm ready to give.
Thanks in advance

Hi Mario Adler,
Thanks a ton for ur answer.
Will it update safety stock for finished goods in each depot by SKU wise? Raw material safety stock isn't my concern.
project description : Manufacturer of chemical goods , 70+ products,350 skus
Distribution : factory to depot (bulk volume)
Mother go-down to depot(Stock transfer)
No of depots :33,factory:3,mother go-down -1
Sales forecasting is done in excel for every month and updated to SAP via BAPI. After that DRP,MRP and other runs takes place.
What are all the areas i need to touch in to get the parameters to update the safety stock?
Regards
Arasu

MRP with Safety Stock

Hi All,
I am working on a trading Company. I have one scenario for Make to Stock, whenever the MRP will run it should consider the safety stock and the MRP should be run through the reorder Point. As i do not have much idea about the MRP, so please guide me on this. Please give me step by step Procedure to do this. What MRP type,shall i choose while creating the material master and which lot size? Its will be better if you clarify with an example.
Sure,Points will be awarded.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dharama,
I have run the MRP same as the example given by you for Lot size HB and MRP type VB as--
Ex. Stock 50
Reorder point 60
safety stock 30
MAx stock level 100
When MRp run system create P.R for 50 no's.
I understood the first two line items as we have the safety stock as 30, so it will be reduced from the avalaiable quantity 50. It will become as 20.
But after that, how the system is calculating on the reorder level and the maximum stock level. Please clarify me on this.
Thanks in advance
Sure, Points will be awarded.

MRP - project stock - safety stock

Hello,
My MRP plans on a project stock.
When I try to fill in the field "safety stock" in material master data MRP plans the safety amount on unrestricted use stock. I would like it to be planned on a specified project.
Do you know how to do it?
Best regards
Piotr

Hi,
procurement for safety stcok will always happen wo ac assignment. So you may have look for use of some other parameters like lot sizing or minimum lot size fields etc.

In Material master safety stock field is in display

Hi,
As a consultant i am able to change the Safety stock field in MRP view in the test system and Production also,but for the user this particular field is in display mode wheras other field in the MRP view user is able to change.
Kindly help me if,there is any settings for the same.
Regards,
Prashant

Hi Prashant,
Have you checked if there is any configuration made to lock same fields on material master? Follow the below path please;
Logistics u2013 General ==> Material Master ==> Field Selection ==> Define Lock-Relevant Fields
May be someone defined some fields as u201Clock-relevantu201D in customizing and during creation or changing of material master he/she set this indicator. You are able to change those fields because you may have SAP_ALL authorization whereas others may not.
Best regards
