Schedule lines means

Hi Friends... what do you mean by Schedule lines. why is it needed in sap after sales order.
what is meant by Schedule line item category,without this what will happen, what is the importance
of scheduline lines. Please explain me with an example why it is needed and its necessity.
Thank you so much for all the replies.

Shiva,
The schedule line category controls whether schedule lines in delivery schedules are relevant for planning and/or delivery. The system determines this category on the basis of the planning indicator in the forecast delivery schedule, then in the just-in-time (JIT) delivery schedule.
The items in a sales document are divided into one or more schedule lines. These schedule lines differ from each other with respect to date and quantity.
Different control elements are also defined for the schedule lines. For example, for some schedule lines, material requirements planning is not carried out; for other schedule lines, it is carried out. Also goods receipt, not goods issue, is posted for a schedule line defined in a returns document.
Do you want to know anything specific or you have any issue on the same kindly elobrate.
Regards

  • How to compare delivery date in schedule lines and PGI in outbound delivery

    Hi,
    I want to create a report to monitor and compare different dates in sales and delivery process.
    One of my key figure is the comparison between date confirmed to the customer, that I can find in the schedule line of the sales order, and the actual goods issue date from the outbound delivery.
    But I can't succeed in making the link between delivery and schedule lines, means between LIKP and VBEP.
    Would you have any idea?
    Thank you.

    It seems there's no exact (table) connection / link between delivery item and schedule line item.
    Those who were searching for this thing (link / connection between delivery item and schedule line) were recommended to use FM "RV_SCHEDULE_CHECK_DELIVERIES".
    This FM calculates the delivered quantity for each schedule line, so it makes link between the delivery item and schedule lines - however if you check the code it's quite sophisticated...
    (if you put a breakpoint in the FM and display a SO in VA03, you can check how the parameters have to be populated with data).

  • Various date at first schedule line date

    Hi All,
    we are using RLT in our availability check & we run rescheduling of orders (V_V2) when some stocks from our plants comes in.
    on such cases , a back order on rescheduling gets updated with a new date, however during rescheduling, we prefer to not to adjust the the original dates in the first schedule line
    meaning i have a sales order with first date as 11th feb & i have a route of 2 days of route. so Mat avlbl date is 9th feb, Planned GI date is 9th feb, customer delivery date is 11th feb.
    but if i miss this order on 11th feb, & when i receive a stock on 15th feb, i will do a rescheduling at this point of time, i should not have any change in Mat avlb date/ Planned GI date for the first schedule line. but the new proposed dates should be seen only in the second line.
    meaning - first line will have 9th feb as mat. date &  Planned GI date &
    the second date will have 15th feb as mat.date & Planned GI date & the customer delivery date for the second line will be 17th Feb.
    is this possible.
    now i have both lines are getting updated with 15th feb & this needs to be seen only in the second line.
    thanks & Regards
    Ilango

    hi AA,
    This doesnt seems to be a Std process. GR happens for current date. and you can alter Actual PGI date but the document date (delivery) shall not be prior to MAD or Transportation planning date of Order. i guess this may require an OSS.

    Dear Subrat,
    you cannot create a yearly schedule line in the scheduling agreement. It is not possible due to format restrictions of the date field. But what you can do is the follows (it is the modification, but it should work with the help of user-exits):
    1. You can split the year schedule line to the monthly schedule lines. There are two ways to do it. If you apply the DELINS IDOC, then you can do it already during transfer of the data to the application (itr is the best way). Here you can use, for example, user-exit USEREXIT_ZUORDNEN_IDOCS (include LVED4FZZ) or customer function EXIT_SAPLVED4_002, called from the subroutine USEREXIT_DYNPRO (Include LVED4F0U). Alternatively, you can use the user-exit USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBEP (Include MV45AFZZ) within the call transaction, then it will work also in the dialog case.
    2. After getting the monthly schedule lines, you can create a planning delivery schedule, where you can split mothly schedule lines automatically to daily schedule lines according to the customer factory calender.The settings for generation of planning delivery schedules can be found under:
    Customizing SPRO: Sales and Distribution => Sales => Sales Documents => Scheduling Agreements with Delivery schedules => Maintain Planning Delivery Sched. Instruct./Splitting Rules
    It is the only ways, how you can reach your aim. I hope, this information will help you further.

  • Partial delivery per item in sales order and ATP - schedule lines

    Hi,
    I've problem regarding ATP- schedule lines and partial delivery flag.
    In sales order there is flag Partial delivery per item B / 1 . That means create only one delivery even with quant 0. That comes from customer master or customer info-record and it is OK.
    Please look at next example.
    Customer requires:
    10 PCS of materail A on date X. Only 5 PCS are available on date X.
    10 PCS of material B on date X 0 PCS are available on date X, 10 PCS are available on date Y.
    So if we create outbound delivery on date X it will contain only 5 PCS of material  A. No successive deliveries will be created for material A because of the flag B/1. That item is closed.
    Problem is with material B.
    The sales order will be open because of material B and on date Y we can easily create another delivery with 10 PCS of mat B.
    That is wrong. Agreement with customer is only one delivery for ALL items in sales order. If we create delivery on date X it should contain only materials which are available on date X and sales order should close.
    Do you know how to fix this problem?

    Hi,
    I've think you didn't understand my requirement. I allways get schedule lines but they are confirmed on different dates.
    Example in same sales order we have:
    Schedule line for item A:
    DATE X confirmed quantity 10
    Schedule line for an item B.
    DATE X confirmed quanitity 0 (zeroe)
    DATE Y confirmed quantity 10.
    I would like to create outbond delivery on date X with:
    item A quantity 10
    item B quantity 0.
    And if that hapens than B/0 rule will work or reference customzing that you suggested before. So order will be closed because all items are processed or referenced once.
    Do you know how to do that?
    Regards

  • Delivery Date needs to be changed on Schedule lines

    Hi All-
    I am using BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE, to update the delivery date on the schedule lines...If I have 2 lines of schedule, needs to be updated the second one ETENR '0002'...
    Bapi returns message that successfully processed, when I go back and look at Sales order, I don't se any changes on schedule line..
    I am pssing into BAPI, sales doc and schedule line with the delivery date and the flag 'U'..and also I am using BAPI commit...
    But, let me know if I am missing something and also let me know is it possible to change schedule delivery date or not?
    Thanks,
    Sony

    Hi
    Please follow this process.
    Only specify fields that should be changed
    Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
    Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
    Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
    The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
    Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data.
    1. Minimum entry:
    You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
    You must always enter key fields for changes.
    You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
    2. Commit control:
    The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.

  • Open Quantities / relation between Sales Schedule LInes and Doc flow tables

    Hi Experts,
    I got a requirement, in which I hv to develop a report for the Open quantities for sales order items. fine.
    I ssue is that, in the report I hv to show at Schedule line level i.e. VBEP.
    So, by pulling the records from VBEP depending on the seldction criteria, I hv to pull the MATCHING record from VBFA for Post Goods Issue.
    Then, I hv to implememnt the follwoing formula,
    Open Quantity = VBEP, say Schedule line 1 quantity -(mnus) first saved corresponding Order, Item Quantitity-RFMNG in VBFA for PGI type
    As we know, VBEP is at Schedule line lvel, where as VBFA is ITEM level!!
    So, pls. let me know that,
    1 - Is really, we can develop the MATCH btwn VBEP and VBFA tbls, I mean, always, the data will be correctly pulled?
    2 - If so, Is the folllwoing statement is OK?
    LOOP AT IT_VBFA WHERE VBELV = IT_VBEP-VBELN and POSNV = IT_VBEP-POSNR and ERDAT LE IT_VBEP-MBDAT
    3 - Any other good statement for my requirement?

  • How to identify the Open Schedule Lines.

    Hi All,
    I am writing an ABAP report which requires to identify the OPEN SALES ORDER SCHEDULE LINES.
    The requirement is to identify the Open Sales Order Schedule Lines for a particular month (user Processing month in the selection screen).  Here the Schedules line item could have been delivered already.  If it is not Billed then it is OPEN schedule line.
    Can anyone help me to understand the logic which I need to apply to identify only the Open sales order scshedule lines.
    I am using the following tables:
    VBAK,VBAP,VBUK,VBUP,VBEP.  Is there any other table which I need to use?  I am trying to avoid using table VBFA due to performance issues.
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards
    Gopalakrishnan S

    Hi Gopal,
    If you want to find status of any sales order line item then you can find from following method from VBUP table.
    In VBUP table there is a field FKSTK.By this filed status we can find billing status of particular sale order and this field has four possible values and these are
    <i><b>field value  field value meaning</b></i>                             
    if this value is space then order is not Not Relevant for billing             
    if this value is  'A'  then order is    Not yet processed
    if this value is   'B' then order is Partially processed
      if this value is  'C' then order   Completely processed
    If you want to find status for the header then go to VBUK table and process is same as above.
    In these table we can find all types of status.

  • Scheduling Agreement Vs Schedule Lines

    Dera All,
    ECC 6.0
    We are working on Scheduling agreement and schdelue line for Raw Material Procurement , for this we have created the Scheduling agreemnt  for vendor say for 100 kg for next 12 months, and maintained the source list in ME01 with "2"  to get the schedule lines auto generation once we run the MRP.
    Dependenet requirement for next 12 months = 1200
    After MRP run  the schedule lines are generating in ME38 for all 12 months = 1200 kg , but we have maintained the schedule agreement for 100 kg only , so can we restrict system to generate the schedule lines in ME38 for 100 kg only   ?
    I mean in ME38 schedule lines should not plant More than scheduling agreement
    Pls help me to resolve this .....
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,

    Hi, Not sure of any work around.
    Post-ME38 phase SAP gives the option of ensuring that 'Scheduled quantity & & greater than target quantity & &'  with the 06/067 message and this requirement is Pre-ME38 phase.
    A similar requirement got raised today after your response, in the MM forum, and it also received the same response.

  • Scheduling Agreement Schedule Lines firmed after outbound delivery

    Dear All,
    We use scheduling agreement for cross-company process in our client.  After MRP run schedule lines created automatically. For the next step outbound delivery is created via VL10F (or VL10B).
    After outbound delivery creation, on MD04 or ME39, i see the schedule line firmed (*). Because firmig MRP doesn't change those schedule lines. This is a problem for our client.
    Do you know a way for MRP can change the schedule lines even outbound delivery created ? How can i manage this situation ?
    Best regards,

    Hi Anil
    The '*' that you see means that the schedule line has been changed manually and the Firming indicator (EKET-FIXKZ) is set when there is any change to the Schedule line.
    So, when a Delivery is created, the schedule line should be 'Fixed'.
    Otheriwse, MRP can delete or change this schedule line and it would cause an inconsistency in the system. This is the logically intended behaviour.
    Please see the F1 help for the field EKET-FIXKZ:
    "Schedule Line is "Fixed"
    Fixes the schedule line and determines that it cannot now be automatically changed as a result of materials planning and control/MRP activities.
    Procedure
    The indicator is set automatically if:
    .- You make manual changes to a line of a scheduling agreement delivery schedule that was created via the materials planning process
    .- You create a schedule line manually
    Dependencies
    You can specify whether Materials Planning/MRP can change delivery schedule lines within the firm and trade-off zones in the additional data for the scheduling agreement item."
    I hope this helps.

  • Schedule Lines

    Hi All,
    I have my main servers in the USA and my German Client is creating the orders, howcome the system is proposing tommorrow's date in the Schedule Lines.
    BTW how are Schedule lines determined? I know that it is thru MRP Type + Item category.
    Regards,
    Vinod

    Hi,
    My question from where the sales is happening to customer i mean the plant supplying the goods to customer.
    What ever may be the case.
    It works as below
    Sale order with schedule line is 18.02.2008, this means the order quantity can be delivered to cusotmer on this date.
    This date is determined based on Material availability date.
    System provides the confirmed date by calculating backword scheduling from the date customer wants the good at place i.e devlivery date. ( it calculates all the dates like material availability date, transportation planning date, loading, picking, packing and transit time to reach customer). then give confirmed delivery or schedule line.
    For example schedule is on i.e 18/02/2008.
    You create delivery after this due date. This means all the activities are carried out for this delivery for this reason you can create delivery with PGI.
    ( The system is operated by user (business) to just replicate the actual process happening in the business)
    Kindly reward points if useful.

  • MRP Area and SA Schedule Lines

    Hello All,
        We are looking at using MRP Areas and noticed it can not be turned off once on (ECC 5.0).  Given that, is the following true with reference to schedule agreements:
    - Will seperate schedule lines be created for each MRP Area (same material)?
    - Does the receiving storage location come from the material master or the MRP Area (Does it matter if it is a type 01 or type 02 MRP Area)?
    - Is it possible to define differen't receiving slocs in a schedule line for a Plant MRP Area?
    Thank you,
    Jerry

    Thank you Charlie,
        The link is helpful however it doesn't come straight out and answer the questions - meaning there is a bit of ambiguity there.
    It would be appreciated if you or anybody that is using MRP areas with schedule agreements is doing the above.
    Regards,

  • SCHEDULING AGREEMENT AND SCHEDULING LINE CREATION

    Hello Guys,
    I trying creating a scheduling agreement(SA) for vendor & material combination.
    I have created a Scheduling agreement in ME31L then maintained in ME38.
    In ME38 i have also mentioned the delivery date. when i am checking EKKO for Purchasing document , its created with the delivery date specified.
    My question is how to create a schedule line ? Do we need to maintain a source list of that material, plant and vendor.
    If we have the source list maintained, then what is the next step after SA is created and maintained.
    Do we need to do MIGO? because i tested by creating one SA in ME31L and maintained in ME38. I mentioned the delivery date as today and when i checked EKKO table the Purchasing document is created.
    Do i need to create a Purchase Order?
    If no then do i need to do MIGO? If i need to do MIGO, for what reference do i need to do MIGO???
    My client never maintained a Scheduling agreement, they want the scheduled lines to be created and sent to vendor and we need to receive  the goods on specified delivery date.
    Help will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You need to make a distinction between the scheduling agreement (ME31L/ME32L) and the delivery schedule creation (ME38/ME84)
    With ME31L you create the scheduling agreement. In the scheduling agreement which is created for a vendor you maintain the parts that you will order at this vendor, the target quantity that you will order over a certain period and the price.
    In ME38 you use the scheduling agreement number that is created with ME31L to create schedule lines (manually). These schedule lines consist of a date and an quantity. This is the data that needs to be transmitted to the vendor and against which the vendor is shipping the ordered materials.
    Once the vendor ships the materials you post the goods receipt in Migo against the scheduling agreement number.
    That is the basic working of the scheduling agreement and the delivery schedule.
    Now some remarks.
    You need to set-up the required output conditions for transmitting the data to the vendor either via print, fax, email or EDI.
    You can do this manually in each scheduling agreement and each release but typically you maintain the output condition records.
    For scheduling agreement contract (ME31L) you use transaction MN07.
    For the delivery schedule (ME38/ME84) you use transaction MN10.
    In order for you to be able to post the goods receipt the delivery schedule needs to have been transmitted otherwise you will get a message that not requirement are found when trying to post goods receipt.
    Also the goods receipt can only be posted if the requirements are valid on the day that you are performing MIGO. This means if you would post GR today then the open requirements in the scheduling agreement need to be for today or already from previous dates. The system will not allow you to post GR for quantities that are only due tomorrow (if this is required a user exit needs to be set-up).
    If you want schedule lines created via MRP then you need to set-up a source list using ME01. You have to make sure that the MRP key is set to 2 in orer for the system to generate schedule lines and you also have to make sure that you have the correct MRP parameters set-up.
    You can use ME84 to transmit the delivery schedule lines generated by MRP if no changes are required. With the ME84 you can transmit multiple releases at once, however this transaction can not be used to make manual changes to the MRP proposal.
    The scheduling agreement offers lot's more possibilities but the above should get you going with the basics.
    Hope this will help you on your way.

  • EDI Message for Scheduling Agreement Schedule Lines

    Hi Experts,
    My client has the EDI set up for the SASL and is running fine.
    Currently we have scheduled background program to trigger the IDOC and convert the IDOC into XML to send the information to the external system via interface after MRP run.Output type in the SASL will be triggered at header level (Without release documentation) whenever there is a new or change in the schedule line. Schedule line will be fixed automatically for every MRP run based on the Firm zone maintained in scheduling agreement.
    Now the requirement is, Client wants to send the schedule lines regardless of New or change after MRP run sothat all the information will be sent to the suppliers. This requirement may be contradictory one but the client needs it.
    1) For the New schedule line creation the output type will be triggered so no issues the program will take care
    2) For the change schedule line also the output type will be triggered so No problem.
    Requirement :
    1) When there is no new & change in the schedule lines , how we can handle this???
    2) Client wants to fix the schedule lines based on the planned delivery time and they do not want to maintain this PDT in the Firm zone field.??
    Kindle explore and provide me the inputs. Appreciate your help.
    Thanks /Karthik

    Can you elaborate bit more on the issue.
    see if you are not mentioning the PDT in the firm zone field. then it means the schedule lines can be changed and once they are changed the change idoc will get trigger.
    however if there is no change in the schedule line and since its a old one there will not be any idoc generation for this.
    seems as per your requirement you want to get the idoc generated for the old line as welll then u need to look for the anhancement badi/uer exit to map this.
    need more insight of the issue to resolve it
