Question

HI All,
I have a scenario kindly guide me how achive this,
Implementation in ECC6.0,
1. I have two diffrent manufacturing plants at two diffrent locations which manufactures same kind of products at both these plants,  and CNF( delear location from where Finished goods are delivered to customers which can be treated as plant). Now the client wants they want to do daily/day  wise forecasting at CNF level.  where in via  stock transfer - special procurement key ( key-40 )at both Manufacturing plant & CNF level.  But the problem  is that in special procurement key, we can assign   1 issuing  pant in spl procurement key,  also we can assign only one SPl procurement key to FG  in MRP:2 , how does the system knows that this production should  either be done in plant 1 or plant2.
Also CBP or MRP run needs to be done.
2. can we do  hour wise planning for production?
can any one kindly guide me how we can  achive this requirement-  kindly  give with example & customization.

Hi,
For your first question...
This can be achieved by quota arrangement.
Lets say your manufacturing plants are A and B and your forecast plant is C.
In plant C maintain the procurement type as F and don't maintain any special procurement key there.In MRP 2 view maintain the quota arrangement usage.
Now go to MEQ1 transaction (quota arrangement). Enter the material and plant C and in the next screen maintain the validity dates and Minimum Quota split quantity.
Select the line and click on Item overview icon.
In the next screen maintain procurement type as F ,
Special procurement as U
Enter the plant A , quota % say 70
In the next row do the same for plant B.Lets say quota % as 30 and save.
Now say there are PIR's of 1000 in plant C.
After the MRP run you will see two STO pur.req will be created in plant C with quantities 700 and 300.One is for plant A and the other for plant B.
Make sure your lot size supports splitting quota.
Thanks,
