Scheduling agreement in subcontracting.

Hi,
what are the advantages of using a Scheduling agreement in "Subcontracting"?
A <b>scheduling agreement</b> for subcontracting and a <b>purchase order</b> with material that will be send to the vendor to manufacture the end product are two different steps in subcontracting?
Best regards

Hi,
If you have already maintained the BOM in CS01, you need not have to maintain the seperate BOM in Scheduling Agreement, because, the already existing BOM will get copied. The only thing you will have to do is that, define special procurement category as 30 (Sub-Contracting) in MRP2 view of the material master & then create the SchedulingAgreement with item category as L (Sub-Contracting).
Hope this clears.

Scheduling Agreement u2013 Subcontracting

Hi All,
I have Issue for following process.
1. I Created Scheduling Agreement with item category L (Subcontracting) for Material Fin001
2. I also created BOM for Fin001and Fin001 BOM component is sem001.
3. When I issuing a material sem001 to subcontractor through MB1B u2013 TO Purchase order
    Then that time system is not checking Schedule Line Quantity of Fin001, system is allowing issuing more than
    Shedule line quantity or Target quantity or Purchase order quantity for Sem001 material.
4.My requirement is system should check schedule line quantity of Fin001 and system is not allowing the excess
    quantity sem001 according to BOM of Fin001of schedule line.
Pl. guide me.
Thanks

Hi
It is standard behaviour, system will allow you to send more component qty to vendor. Because of some scrap or wastage you may need to provide more qty.
If you want to restrict it, you have to try with the user exits. Some of the user exits i have given below for the Transaction MB1B.
MB_CF001 Customer Function Exit in the Case of Updating a Mat. Doc.
MBCF0002 Customer function exit: Segment text in material doc. item
MBCF0005 Material document item for goods receipt/issue slip
MBCF0006 Customer function for WBS element
MBCF0007 Customer function exit: Updating a reservation
MBCF0009 Filling the storage location field
MBCF0010 Customer exit: Create reservation BAPI_RESERVATION_CREATE1
MBCF0011 Read from RESB and RKPF for print list in MB26

LSMW - create Scheduling Agreement for subcontracting position type

Hi all,
I want to use LSMW to create a scheduling agreement with position type L (subcontracting).
I'm using Business Object Method BAPI with
Business Object      BUS2013
Method               CREATE
Message Type         PURSAG_CREATE
Basic Type           PURSAG_CREATE01
The LSMW creates the scheduling agreement with the list of material I inserted in my file but with position type 'blank'.
any ideas?
i read that the standard program RM06EEI0 don't support subcontracting, this is the reason of BAPI.
thanks, MG

Hi gurus!
I forgot to put 'X' in E1BPMEOUTITEMX-ITEM_CAT so, even if i mapped the field, it was not updated.
thanks a lot.

How can we map this in SAP?
I created scheduling agreement for subcontracting vendor but could not see the BOM for line item.And when i am doing MB1B by 541 movement type system is giving the error massage that the `purchase order dont have any item`.
Please give me the inputs.

Hi
For Subcontrcting through MRP
Other than the normal, in material master MRP 2 view u need to maintain the special procurement. And maintain BOM (CS01), Create scheduling agreement and manitain delvery lines in ME38, and do the transfer posting in MB1B (541 Movement type) and do the GR at MIGO (101 Movement type).
Please check it once.

Scheduling Agreement Alternate BOM usage

Hi all,
For a FG material , i have 2 BOMs available for that.
I make a scheduling agreement for Subcontracting process while maintaining schedules ME38 , automatically system is picking the first BOM present for that material , but i want to use the alternate BOM to be picked for that particular vendor or for that Scheduling agreement. So should I maintain any thing else for that agreement .
With Rgds,
Vamsi

Hi,
Maintain two production versions, one for each BOM you have, Assign the default production version to the subcontracting info record
When you create subcon PO, the default production version is used. If you want to change it, go in the item level "Material Data" Tab,
click "Re-explode" and choose the production version you want

Subcontracting through scheduling Agreement

hi ..
helloo..i want to knw the steps by step procedure for the subcontracting using scheduling agreement..
thanks..
Rgrds,
AVS

Hi
Steps are the same as how you create for a SC PO and the creation of shedule lines is the same standard way. Only the item category will be L - Subcontracting.
To enter several delivery dates for a subcontract order item, proceed as follows:
Display the scheduling screen for the item.
Enter the quantities and dates.
If the ordered material has a bill of material, the components are copied from the bill of material.
If you do not use bills of material, you must either enter the components manually or refer to an existing purchase requisition. You have to enter the components for every delivery schedule.
Position the cursor on a schedule line and choose Item ® Component ® Overview to display the screen for processing components. You can enter or change the individual components in the same way as an order item.
To make entering the schedule lines easier, copy the components for other delivery schedule items. To do this, select Edit ® Repeat components ® Activate.
When you enter the next delivery schedule for the material, the components will be copied from the selected delivery schedule. The quantity and the date required are redetermined.
Save the delivery schedule.
When you print the scheduling agreement, the quantity required per component and date required are reprinted.
Thanks & Regards

Subcontracting Using Scheduling agreement

I am trying to carry out subcontracting using Scheduling Agreement, but not able to achieve the same. Please let me know stepwise porocedure to carry out the same.

Hi,
Please cehck the following,
Requirement Subcontracting Orders to be generated as schedule line using MRP.
Solution is as follows.
Step 1
Transaction Code: MM01
Path Logistics  Materials Management  Material Master  Material  Create (general)  Immediately
Create Material Master with source list marked in Purchasing view and Special Procurement type is 30 in MRP2 View.
Source List to be marked in Purcahsing data view of material master record.
Procurement type in F
In MRP-2 view, Special procurement 30 Subcontract
Step 2.
Create Q-Info Records.
Transaction: QI01
Menu Path: Logistics  Quality Management  Quality Planning  Logistics Master Data  Q-Info Record: Procurement  Create
Step 3.
Create a Scheduling Agreement (Doc. type LP).
Enter the firm zone: Zone in which the requirement should be converted to Schedule lines.
Save the document
Step 4.
Create Source List
Transaction: ME01
Path: Logistics  Materials Management  Purchasing  Master Data  Source List  Maintain
In ME01,
Enter the valid from and to date, vendor, purchasing organization, agreement created in STEP 3, and MRP indicator as 2 = Record relevant to MRP. Sched. lines generated automatically. SAVE the record
STEP 5
RUN MRP.
Transaction is MD02.
Path: Logistics  Production  MRP  Planning  Single item, multi level
Control. Parameter to be used for schedule lines is 2, This will ensure that requirement in the firm zone is converted to schedule lines rest will be converted to planned order.
Next is the solution for splitting the requirement in two vendors.
step-6
The splitting of requirement will be handled using quota arrangement.
Following are the steps to be followed:
Step 1. Customizing settings
Transaction: OMI4 (Define Lot sizing procedures), Choose MRP Lot Size
Mark the Splitting quota.
The Splitting will enable the requirement to be split between two vendors. The following are the details of the same.
Step 2. Change the Material Master
Change views
View to be changed is Purchasing
Input the Quota arr. Usage as 3 (MRP relevant).
Step 3. Create Info Records.
Transaction: ME11
Choose Subcontracting and create the info record.
Step 4. Maintain the Source List
Transaction: ME01
To add the next vendor
Step 5. Create Quota Arrangement
Transaction: MEQ1
Path: Logistics  Materials Management  Purchasing  Master Data  Quota arrangement  Maintain
Input the material and plant and press enter.
Input the Valid to date and Min. qty splitting (If the requirement is greater than Min qty Splitting only then the requirement will be split else it will be allocated to only one vendor based on the Quota
Enter the following details
Procurement type as F = External procurement
Special procurement as L = Subcontract
Vendors for which splitting is to take place.
Calculating the Quota Rating
The system assigns a quota rating to each source of supply. The quota rating is calculated as follows:
Quota-allocated quantity + Quota base quantity
= Quota rating
Quota
where
     Quota-allocated quantity
= Total quantity from all purchase requisitions, purchase orders, release orders, and scheduling agreement schedules allocated to a given source of supply. (The quantities of quota-allocated planned orders are also taken into account.)
     Quota base quantity
= Quantity used to control the quota arrangement when new sources of supply are included.
     Quota
= A number specifying which portion of a total requirement should be obtained from a certain source.
The source with the lowest quota rating represents the valid source, even if it has a quota rating of 0 (that is, the quota-allocated quantity and the quota base quantity have the value 0). If more than one source of supply has a quota rating of 0, the item with the highest quota is the valid source of supply.
According to the formula, the following applies: The higher the quota, the lower the quota rating and the higher the likelihood that the relevant source will be determined as the valid source.
But in case of splitting SAP will not go on the basis of Quota it will purely split the requirement quantity between two or more vendor on the basis of Quota %.
Step5. RUN MRP
Remember to choose the schedule lines control indicator to 2.
Please try this.
Don't forget to reward, if found to be useful.

Subcontracting Scheduling Agreement

Hi all
can anybody please let me know what are the Customization step required to set up the Subcontracting Scheduling Agreement
and how to see the component in BOM provide to vendor as we have already maintained the BOM
your quick response will be highly appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
Customization for subcontracting Scheduling agreement is same as regular scehduling agreement. It is Std SAP.
In the Item Catergory enter "L" for subcontracting
You can view the bill of material in the subcontracting scheduling agreement in this path
Item > components> Over view
(OR) go to the print review in that you can see components provided to the vendor

Subcontract and scheduling agreement

gurus can u tell n detail reg the subcontract n scheduling agreement followed during real time?

Hi,
Sub Contracting Cycle are:
(1) You have a material (Finished Goods) that can be procured externally, and you have maintained BOM (CS01) with components (Raw Materials). Any waste generated and received during subcontracting process can be maintained as component with negative quantity in the BOM.
(2) You create a subcontracting PO (ME21N, Item Category L with different document type ie.. from std one). Maintain Purchase Info Record for Subcontract category for material and subcontractor.
(3) You make a transfer posting to issue components for SC PO(In ME2O directly or by MB1B with 541 Movement type). Material is sent to subcontractor. As material remains under your ownership, system does not make any value entry. But quantity is shown as "Material Provided to Vendor" .So no accounting document generated by supplying raw material to Sub Contracting Vendor.
(4) You receive (MIGO) finished material against SC-PO. You also specify components consumed in manufacturing of finished goods. Additionally, if you have negative components in BOM, now you'll also receive subcontracting by-products. There are three events, so three accounting entries are generated:
(5) Invoice Verification (MIRO) for SC Invoice.
(6) Payment in F-53
The accounting entries are:
FG BSX acc. Debit Acc.
GR/IR Cle.acc. WRX acc. Credit Acc.
FRL Acc. Debit Acc.
BSV acc. Credit Acc.
BSX acc. of components Credit Acc.
GBB - VBO Acc. Debit acc.
PRD acc. Some time Credit &
Some time Debit
If you are activate Price Diff. Acc. for SC-Vendor in....
OLMB -
> GR -
> Price diff. acc.for SC order while you do GR for your Plant......then Price Diff. Acc. also will be trigered...
Scheduling agreement is a long term purchase agreement, where you will keep issuing the delivery schedules whenever there is a change in requirement or at predetermined time intervals. The delivery schedule can be on hour/daily/weekly/monthly basis. SA is also an agreement with the vendor for the supply of matl, may be a quanity or value. The delivery dates will be maintained in ME38 ref the SA which are called delivery schedules.So you can maintain the delivery schedule and communicate the vendor on Forecase basis or JIT basis. And when you need some more matl then will only create SA deliveries using ME38. SA could be of 2 types:- without release documentation-system will transmit the delivery info to the vendor once you save the document.
With release documentation- after creating the delivery schedules you need to create SA release using ME84.So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME38 & MIGO,

Subcontracting - Direct delivery with MRP and Scheduling agreements

Hi All,
can anyone suggest where I am going wrong.
I have a sub con assembly A that is made up from parts B and C.
The source of supply is:
A by VENDA
B by VENDB
C by VENDC
I do not want part B arriving on site as it is situated next door to the sub con plant. (however I might want to stock it for spare purposes later)
So I would like to send Part B directly to VENDA
I have set up a scheduling agreement for part B for VENDB and I have changed the delivery tab to VENDA and ticked the SC vendor option.
My problem is that when I run MRP I get a planned order for Part B and not a schedule line. If I remove the tick then I do indeed get a schedule line.
I have read a few posts that indicate that this can only be done via MRP areas (which we dont have).....is this really true??
Kind regards
Ben

Hi Peter,
I have looked at the possibility of converting over to MRP areas and the migration was a technical iceberg We have a lot of custom code which works along side MRP at plant level and I suspect this would require changing.
However you have triggered my curiosity again so I will have another play in my sandpit!
Take care
Ben
