Scheduling Agreement Date Management

I am running into limitiations with the standard SAP date management functionality in the firm zone of Scheduling agreements.  I am for any configuration options or customizations out there that can resolve our issues.

As pointed out already above you need to use a periodic lot sizing procedure.
Use Lot sizing procedure P, Lot size indicator K and Scheduling =2
As per your requirement, you need to create a calendar using MD25 with Months (Workdays) as a calculation rule with 1 as the period in the box provided.
After a MRP run the delivery date would point to the last day of the month.
But the requirement is a bit surprising as say for a requirement on the 1st of the month you will have the delivery showing up on the last day of the same month. Under what circumstances do you have this requirement as a valid one in your business case?

  • Getting scheduling agreements data through 2LIS_02_SCN

    Hello All
    There is a requirement to get the scheduling agreements data (Purch doc type: LP and LPA, LU). This information is present in EKKO table. The standard extractor for confirmations 2LIS_02_SCN does not get this data due to performance issues. It would be nice is some one help regarding two aspects :
    1. Is there any setting on the R/3 where in we can enable the standard extractor 2LIS_02_SCN to get the scheduling agreements data.
    2. What would be the logic for getting the scheduling agreements data if one needs to go for function exit on the extractor 2LIS_02_SCN.
    Thanks in advance.
    With Regards,
    Hari.

    Hi,
    Yes...u can create an exit.......
    Here u can link these three tables EKKO,ekpo and ekes....
    U can use the field EBELN (Purchasing Document Number) as a condition which is present in all the three tables to fetch the value for the field BSART(Purchasing Document Type) from EKKO.

    Please check the schedule for the InfoProvider you are using. You can check this within transaction code RSA1. There may not be a schedule that was created to load data. Please verify that this is or not the case. Thanks.

  • Problem in scheduling agreement  dates with 2LIS_12_VCSCL extractor

    I am using 2LIS_12_VCSCL extractor to get the order fulfilment report.
    I am using ODS as an infprovider and on BW 3.5.
    Scenario on Sale Order screen - VA33 [ Scheduling Agreemnent ]
    Sales doc   Item  Line-No     Qty      Del NO    Req-Date         Actual GI Date
        100          10      1            10          222        5/10/2008        5/10/2008   ( this is the only item that is delivered)
         ---            --       2            10                       6/10/2008
         ---            --       3            10                       7/10/2008
    This Scenario when we view the data in rsa3 by running 2LIS_12_VCSCL
    Sales doc   Item  Line-No     Qty      Del NO     Req-Date        Actual GI Date
         100       10      1            10           222         5/10/2008         5/10/2008 
            ---       2            10          222        6/10/2008          5/10/2008
            ---       3            10          222        7/10/2008           5/10/2008
    Note that the delivery no is assigned to the unschedules schedulines(ie; these are open schedulelines that have not been delivered, but the extractor is assigning the first delivery no to all these schedule lines)
    We are confused and do not understand if this is how this extractor works . what we actually expected to get is only one recored for which the delivery has been made.
    like :
    Sales doc   Item  Line-No     Qty      Del NO    Req-Date        Actual GI Date
           100       10      1            10          222        5/10/2008        5/10/2008 
    the other two lines should not get extracted. If this is a bug in the extractor program please point us to the OSS notes or the fix that can be applied.
    Else if this is how this extractor works please suggest the fix that can be applied on the BW side to extract only the first record (ie; the schedule line  record for which the delivery has been done)
    Greatly appreciate help on this issues.
    Thank You,

    Hello,
    I think we have the same problem.  Data pulled over to BW has alot more records for a single delivery.
    Anybody have any thoughts on this.

  • Scheduling agreement dates

    Dear all,
    Statistical delivery date changes automatically when delivery date is changed.
    We are unable to evaluate our vendors due this change. In order to keep unchanged the SDD, we are using a work around, i.e. we first change the DD (SDD) is changed automatically then come back to SDD and change again (this time the new date can be changed).
    Should we set something in order to keep the SDD unchanged?
    Thanks for your help

    SDD will never change when there is any change in DD.
    Do check whether you SA is having an output released , if released that date is called as SDD.
    Go to ME9E output the SA and then re-check changing the delivery date in SA and check the SDD will not change.

  • Dates and quantities copied from Scheduling Agreement to Delivery Order

    Hi everybody,
    we're experiencing a problem with copying control for dates/quantities between Scheduling Agreement and Delivery Order.
    If we define a Forecast Delivery Schedule with more lines/dates into a Scheduling agreement, when I create a Delivery Order with reference to a specific date the system always copies the first forecast delivery schedule date, disregardful the date specified in the selection criteria for delivery creation and with the fact that this could have already been carried out.
    Here's an example:
    Forecast Delivery Schedule into Scheduling agreement:
    (Date) 12.03.07   (Quantity)  10 TO
    (Date) 13.03.07   (Quantity)  12 TO
    (Date) 14.03.07   (Quantity)  15 TO
    When delivery has to be created with reference to Scheduling Agreement, the system doesn't about the date specified in selection parameters (e.g. 14.03.07) and copies the quantity of the first forecast delivery schedule line (10 TO).
    Does anybody knows how to maintain Copying Control for dates and quantities between Scheduling agreement to Delivery Order?
    Thank you!
    Luca

    Dear Pattanaik,
    check data transfer from copy controls.for this T-code is VTLA
    here select your doc type and select details and check also item.check inside both types data trasfer wich is assigned change from this item to header.your problem may ve coming from here.
    hope this will helps you

  • Difference between Purchase Order and Scheduling Agreement

    Can any one explain the main differences between a Purchase Order and a Scheduling Agreement?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    A Purchase Order is a document that is given to Vendor to indicate our intention to buy goods from them. It contains what is the desired goods, how much quantity, price, and the delivery date, among other things.
    A standard procurement cycle for this is:
    PR --> PO --> GR --> IV
    A Scheduling Agreement however, is a type of an Outline Agreement. Outline Agreements are divided into 2, first one is Contracts and second is Scheduling Agreement. So this is basically a long term agreement with a particular vendor that contains details on what is the desired goods, quantity, and the exact delivery dates.
    A standard cycle for this is:
    PR --> Create Scheduling Agreement --> Maintain Delivery Schedule (agreed dates on when vendor will send the goods and time) --> GR --> IV
    As you can see, for Scheduling Agreement, PO is not required, but instead we would need to Maintain Delivery Schedule.
    Just to share on Contracts, it appears as below:
    PR --> Contract Creation --> PO --> GR --> IV

  • Restriction of Validity start date in Scheduling agreement

    Hi,
    I am not able to convert the message 06 170( Start of validity period is in the past) in error message , when i am going to define attributes of system messages in purchasing and converting this message into error , system still does not give error message when i am selecting  back  validity start date in the header of Scheduling agreement (me32l)
    What can be the possible reason.
    Regards
    Sachin

    Hi,
    I believe the message 06-170 is hard-coded in Include "MM06EFRP_EKKO-KDATE" in the Program SAPMM06E
    Laufzeitbeginn in der Vergangenheit -
        IF ekko-kdatb < sy-datlo.
          MESSAGE w170 INTO gl_dummy.
          mmpur_message 'W' '06' '170' '' '' '' ''.
    Please consul your ABAP Team on this to change it to Error.
    But SAP does not recommend changing standard Programs, so please discuss this and see that its really required and will not have any effects to your business process, because there may be instances wherein you might require to create scheduling agreements with a past validity date sometime in future based on business requirement.

  • Calculation of goods issue date in scheduling agreements with routes

    Hello together,
    i have a problem with the calculation of goods issue date in scheduling agreements when we use route, because the system ignore the days of transit.
    Example:
    We had customized the route 4711 with a transit time of 3 days. This route would be related to a scheduling agreement. But this setting has no influence to the calculation of the goods issue date for the schedules. The same happens with loading date and so on.
    Can anyone give me a tip, which setting is additional necessary?
    Regards
    Andreas Walter

    Hi,
    check the following settings
    1, Route determination Path : IMG>sales and distribution>Basic function>Routes>Route determination
    2, Activate the route Determination for your sales document type in following path :IMG>sales and distribution>Basic function>Routes>Route Schedule Determination-->Schedule with route schedule for sales document type
    3, Maintain Delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling in the following path:IMG>sales and distribution>Basic function>Delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling>Maintain Duration

  • How to get GR posting date for schedule line of scheduling agreement?

    I had hard time to tie the GR date to schedule lines. I need this information to generate vendor performance report. However, the GR date is tied to scheduling agreement item level only. One item line can have multiple schedule lines. Is there a way to link the GR date to actual schedule line? Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    There will be icon called PO history in the over view screen of SA.Select the item and press it.May be this will be some what useful to you.

  • Scheduling Agreement: validity variation date on schedule dates

    Hello everybody
    I have a problem and  I appreciate your advice .
    There is an agreement “A” which validity date is from 01.01.2007 to 31.12.2007.
    And an agreement "B" with validity date from 01.01.2008 to 31.12.2009
    After the MRP has been run, It creates the Delivery Schedule based on agreement "A" . But in a specific item, it was created two delivery date which are out of the validity date; those were 07.01.2008, and 12.01.2008
    The question is why did the system create deliveries schedule out of the validity date base on agreement “A” and not based on agreement “B”? I mean,
    Why did the system create this Scheduling delivery date out of the range of validity of the Agreement?
    And, In the case that it had taken the validity date from Agreement "B" why did it put it on agreement "A"?
    Could you give me any tip or suggestion where I need to verify or check in order to find out the reason why this happened?
    I already verify the agreements, the source list and they seem to be ok.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Adrianda,
    The creation of schedule lines through MRP depends upon the Agreement( no "A" or "B" in your case) and the validity period,and the period for which the MRP is run the system will create the SL according to the period for which the MRP has run,as per my knowledge there are no other place you can check,so double check the source list.

  • Delivery before the schedule line date in scheduling agreement.

    Hi All,
    I have a situation where in I am using JIT delivery schedule for processing the delivery requirement from customer. In this, lets say, I have a schedule as 08/05/2009 for material A to deliver 1000 qty and the material is made available to me after production as of 07/05/2009 and I want to despatch the material on 7th only and not on 8th. The system does not allow me to do this.It allows me to make a delivery only on 08/05/2009.
    Is there any alternative to this and is this SAP standard behaviour.

    I think you can change the schedule line date in scheduling agreement itself and do the delivery.
    regards,
    Sudhir

  • Scheduling Agreement –delivery date in month format -  MD04

    Dear experts,
    Scheduling Agreement, forecast delivery schedule.
    When I enter a delivery date in month format, the system, during processing, automatically checks the factory calendar and proposes the first valid working day as the delivery date. ( Yes. I know it is a SAP standard )
    My requirement is automatically checks by the system  the last  working day as the delivery date.
    Could you tell me what are the settings i need to check to resolve this issue?
