Scheduling Agreement - Automatic Release Individual Schedule Lines

Dear all.
I've create a "LPA" scheduling Agreement and its release type is "JIT". So, I use to ME38 to maintain the individual JIT delivery schedule lines.
The problem I have is this method requires the person to manually release each individual delivery schedule line document on the due date before GR is allowed. Hence, is there a SAP system function that can automatically release any due delivery schedule line document without having to manually track and release using ME38 each day/week/month?
Thanks.
Steven

Hello
use t.code ME84 then system release the sch.lines automatically those maintained with me38.

Automatic Delivery schedule line proposal on scheduling agreements

Hi Experts,
I have a requirements where client wants to have automatic schedule lines in outline agreement i.e. scheduling agreements.
Is there any standard functionality available for configuring this type functionality or we have to customize?
If standard functionality available please suggest which document type we have to use, and what are all the other settings we have to make to work this functionality.
Thanks
Nath

Dear Jagnnath,
The best solution is to create a source list. You can create source list directly from the outline agreemnt main screen (Menu Bar -> Environment) or else use t code ME01. In source list maintain the validity, Pur Org, outline agreement , MRP=2. Here you may set the check box 'FIX', by doing this always scheduling lines will generate with this vendor if there is any requirement of that material.
Hope this may help you.

Scheduling agreement - automatic delivery schedule line generation

Hi,
we assign our scheduling agreements in source lists with MRP indicator on 2 (Record relevant to MRP. Sched. lines generated automatically). As we don't know what the future demand pattern for the product will be, a longer validity date of the source list item is entered, in comparison with the actual validity period. However, all new schedule lines which are generated within this validity period are assigned to the scheduling agreement, even if the quantity of the scheduling agreement has been reached (even outside of tolerances). Can this behavior be changed ?
Thanks for any valuable input.
Kristof.

Hi,
thanks for your reply,
Generally when we create an SA, user will give the schedule line dates instead of that the system has to propose the delivery dates.
My requirement is:
On the scheduling agreements we need to automatically propose delivery dates based on criteria like every Monday, etc. These dates need to get calculated automatically from the header and then get calculated to each JIT tab at the line item.
Is there any document which will hlep in getting the Delivery dates automatically,
am looking into Lz, LZJ but bit confused with these two document types.
Can you please explain more the functionality of these two.
Regards
Nath.

Raj,
Source List a Mandatory for Scheduling Agreement, if you want to create automatic Scheduling line.
Plz use (2) in MRP RELEVENT tab in ME01 (Source List).
rest of the thing is ok, make sure a material master(MRP 2 VIEW) in that view you have to give a planed delivery days. it is must.
HOPE IT WILL WORK

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

Automatic creation of Schedule line after MRP RUN

Hi,
Till now we are using only PO for placing orders to vendor, now we want to use the functionality of scheduling agrement, so that after MRP run, we can get automatic schedule line creation, for this , what are settings required, how system create the automatic schedule lines based on which criteria, second thing while creating on eschedule agrement i found that the conditon which i can add for a vednor in ME21N that all condition are not coming while creating schedule agrement even my vendor is same for PO and Schedule agrement, so what are the setting required for this.
regards,
zafar

Hi
1.In material master purchasing view data auto PO is to be flagged.If scheduling agreemet with release documentation.
Then flag JIT indicator 1.
2.maintain MRP views in material master
3.In source list for fix vendor,source list usage 2 is to be maintained.
4.Vendor master purchasing data auto PO indicator is to be flagged.
5.Then when you run MRP automatically schedule lines are generated.
For JIT and forecasting maintain creaton profile in OMUP transction.
Assign the creation profile in scheduling agreement.

Scheduling Agreements and relevant schedule lines configuration !

Dear Sapients,
I request you all to help me in providing the configuration steps for Scheduling Agreements and relevant Schedule lines configuration.

Hi Sreedhar,
Scheduling Agreement with Delivery Schedules
Definition
An outline agreement that is created for one or more materials and outlines the overall expected quantity of the material(s) to be delivered to the customer over a specific period of time.
Use
The scheduling agreement is used as a basis for delivering a material. The customer sends in scheduling agreement releases, referred to as delivery schedules, at regular intervals to release a quantity of the material.
Structure
The structure of scheduling agreements with delivery schedules resemble that of other sales documents in the R/3 System, in particular the standard scheduling agreement.
Data that applies to the entire document appears in the header; data about materials appears at item level; and delivery dates and quantities appear in the schedule lines within the delivery schedule. Additionally, the system maintains a history that permits you to compare and contrast various generations of delivery schedules.
Integration
Data in scheduling agreements comes from three sources:
The customer sends in requested quantities and dates, normally by Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
The component supplier enters data manually
The system automatically copies data into the scheduling agreement from master records

System is not firming schedule line automatically

Hello,
I want to know how the end and start date of planning time fence is calculated and why system is not firming schedule line automatically.
In Material master I am using MRP type P1 and GR processing time 1 day, planned delivery time 1 day, planning time fence is 7 days. Lot size key EX
Today is 19.11.2008. And I have requirement of this material coming from FG on 20.11.2008.In MD04 transaction system is showing End of planning time fence is 28.11.2008 which is fine as per material master (+ 7 days excluding sat & Sunday).
When I run MRP for FG, system generates schedule line for this material procured form vendor for the required qty on 28.11.2008 with exception message (30-Plan process according to schedule20.11.08).
As per firming type P1 system should automatically firm the order since requirement date is on 20.11.2008 and it should show the schedule line on 20.11.2008 not on 28.11.2008
But when I change the delivery date manually from 28.11.2008 to 20.11.2008 it firms the schedule line.
Please suggest what can be the solution
Regards
Nanhe Babu

Dear,
Check your MRP type and Planning time fence defined in mrp 1 view of material master?
Firm zone (go-ahead for production)
One of two periods specifying the degree to which the delivery schedule lines of a scheduling agreement release are classified as firm or semi-firm.
Use
! Firm zone I Trade-off zone I
!--!-II> Days
SA release creation date Schedule line date
Firm zone: (go-ahead for production)
If the date of a schedule line lies within the firm zone, the vendor has the go-ahead to produce the relevant quantity with the assurance that the orderer will bear any and all material and production costs associated with the scheduled quantity in the event of subsequent cancellation by the latter.
1. Another way of handling your issue is by using the manual firming .
2. In mdo4 in the Edit menu u will find a Set firming date.
3. Now you can select this and this will give u a popup for entering a date.
4.When u give a date in this and hit enter.
Also please note delivery schedule lines in ME38 (even it is created automatically), in Planning time fence, will get affected by MRP run.
Hope clear to you.

JIT schedule lines not created automatically

Hello All,
I'm not able to get the JIT schedule lines automatically for some of the scheduling agreements. I'm familiar with the SA process and schedule lines, but never came across JIT and SA release. Can anybody help me to provide possible reasons of not getting the JIT schedule lines created for SA.
Thanks,
Amit

Hi,
Check following points -
1) Scheduling agreement is released.
2) In Source list of the material, the Scheduling Agreement & the relevant line item is mentioned. In the MRP area the option '2 - Scheduling Agreement delivery schedule generated automatically.
3) If required quota arrangement is also maintained.

Using SQVI to generate report of open and released delivery schedule lines

All,
I'm using SQVI to generate an excel spreadsheet for some buyers to show open released schedule lines because they are a 1 line item per scheduling agreement company.
I used the logical database MEPOLDB instead of a table joint and pulled fields from EKKO(vendor, SA #,&purchasing group), EKPO(Material Number), EKEH(schedule line type), and EKET(delivery date, scheduled qty,previous qty).
Does this sound like I'll get the results I want on paper as long as I use the right selection criteria, because the report I'm getting isn't quite what I expect? I am unable to identify which lines are authorized to ship vs. trade-off zone, planning, etc. in the report thus far.

Hi Mark,
I have faced same requirement. I am not sure about transporting to TST and PROD. I done by this way.
After generating SQVI program in DEV , I assigned that program to a transaction and tested in DEV. Later i have regenarated SQVI in Production. then I assigned the generated Program to same transaction in DEV. And transported the Tcode assignment of program to Production..
About authorization , if its not sensitive report, BASIS can restrict at transaction level.

Ravi.

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.

*MRP unable to create Delivery Schedule Lines in MM Scheduling Agreement*

Hi Experts,
I need your help...
The issue is, in-spit of maintaining Source List with an u201CScheduling Agreement with item No.u201D & u201CSource List Usage in MRPu201D as 2 (Record relevant to MRP. Sched. lines generated automatically), MRP run does not generate Schedule Lines, instead PRs are created.
Please help me to understand such behavior and fix the issue as the requirement is to generate Schedule Lines only.
Thanks,
Pratap

Hello
Please check
1) Source List maintained properly in terms of Material # ; plant # ; proper POrg ; Schd Agr # and line item# ; proper validity date & MRP relevant indicator
2) Please also check Quata arrangement if you are using. whether % is maintained correctly against the vendor
3) MD03 , Delivery schedules- should be 3
4) check your planning horizon whether it is NETCH or not
5) check material master -MRP2 view, Procurement type is F- external procurement, schedule margin key if you are using
if everything above is set, then I feel it should work
Also please verify-
lot size, safety stock and the corresponding prod volume for MRP input v/s the stock available in MMBE
example.
MD04, we can see the open del lines.
if SS = 50 , prod volume is 150
1) if MMBE shows 200 then it wont generate any schedule.
2) if MMBE is 180 and your lotsize is 40, then after MD03, you will have a schedule line of 40 (provided if everything is set properly)
Please ensure there are NO open delivery lines . if you find such in MD04, then please close open delivery lines
in calculation of MRP, system considers such open delivery lines are going to receive and no additional schedule line generated even after MRP run
thanks

Change in scheduling agreement schedule lines .

Dear All ,
        We have activated release strategy for scheduling agreement .Previously while maintaining schedule lines it was not going for release .
         But now while maintaining schedule lines in ME38 it is going for release .I want to know what is the reason and I want to stop this .
         We have made some changes in Closed PO amendment ,like we have changed the release indicator value R -6- 10% to R - 6 -0% .
Like whenever we make change in price of a PO even a 1paise
it should go for release .
          The release strategy for SA and PO is same .

Hi,
Since you have changed the release indicator it is again going for release for any change.
Please change the release indicator to 2 from 6 so that you can change the schdeule lines or any modiifcation again release will not set
Please check the release indicator in P.O and SA

Scheduling Agreement - Delivery schedule line number

Hi,
I am developing a report to show the Goods receipt postings for each delivery schedules of Schedule agreements.
I am not able to find Delivery Schedules line(EKET-ETENR) in Material document table(MSEG).
How do we exactly link the GR quantity to Scheduling agreement Delivery schedules.
We have line item number but not delivery schedules.
GR quantity may be posted to different delivery scheules and for some SAs when the MRP Runs it is positng randomly.
Is there function to find the link,
Searched EKBE, EKET, MSEG and other tables also.
Appreciate your help <offer removed by moderator>.
Satya
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Jan 18, 2011 2:44 PM

Hi Shravan,
Thanks for answering, I checked those two tables EKEH, EKEK are release tables. We have some SAs without release documentation. I have to find the delivery schedules using the GR document to which delivery schedules the qty it is delivering.
It is not posting the qty from top of schedules, for some SAs it posted randomly.
Any other ideas or any function modules,
In BW it is possible using extractor but we need in R/3
Thanks,
Satya
