Scheduling Agreement Item/Header Text

Gurus,
Where can I extract the item and header text of a particular scheduling agreement found in t-code: ME32L ?
Thanks

Texts for Scheduling agreements are stored in tables STXH and STXL with
TDOBJECT = EKKO
TDNAME = the Scheduling Agreement number (+item in case of text item)
You need to use function module READ_TEXT to retrieve the texts

Scheduling Agreement Item not reflected as commitment item in CO

HI SAP MM Gurus,
Good day!
Here is my scenario:
We need to create scheduling agreements with Account Assignment F which needs to have the commitment items reflected upon creation of the delivery schedule. This works ok if I create the documents (Scheduling Agreement and Delivery Schedule) manually, with the field EKPO-XOBLR being set to X to have the items pass through to CO
The problem is, due to the volume of documents processed, we need to create an upload program using the function module BAPI_SAG_CREATE. Upon observation, this does not update the commitments for the shceduling agreement items even though both the scheduling agreement and delivery schedule were created.
Any thoughts on how I can resolve this?
Kind regards,
DeLo

Are u sure the transaction code is ME33L, contracts use ME33K
Now this is tricky.
One way of finding the condition table used is (working backwards)...
go to table KONH
in the field VAKEY enter your contract(10 chars as in EKKO/EKPO w/ leading zeroes or trailing spaces) and contract line(5 chars w/ leading zeroes).
look at KVEWE (A in my case) and KOTABNR (16 in my case) used now join the two (A016 add the zero in between) now this is the condition table.
working forward.
if the condition table is A016
Get A016-KNUMH from A016
A016-KAPPL = 'M'
A016-KSCHL = 'PB00' (condition you are looking for)
A016-EVRTN = Your Contract Number
A016-EVRTP = Your Contract Line Number
Select DATAB (Validity Start Date), DATBI (Validity End Date) from KONH
where KNUMH EQ A016-KNUMH
Cheers!

Hi all,
Many thanks for the suggestions. One of our expert developers got involved and provided the solution.
In order to have item level text populate, the VBAP-PSTYV (the sales document item category) field also needs to be populated. The VBAP-PSTYV field value is dependent on the sales document type. (Or, at least it is for the configuartion set up in my example) The sales document type is VBAK-AUART.

How are deliveries automatically created from scheduling agreement?

How are deliveries automatically created from the schedule line of the scheduling agreement? Can anybody explain this step by step? Can we use the code VL10BATCH for this purpose? If we can, how is this code used?
Thanks in advance.

hi
A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity.
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.
Document Types
To configure document types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Header -> Define sales document types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The R/3 System contains the following document types for component suppliers:
LZ - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (no external agents)
LZM - Scheduling agreement with delivery orders
LK - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (external agents)
ED - Delivery by external agent (consignment issue)
EDKO - External agent correction
RZ - Scheduling agreement returns (no external agents)
KAZU - Consignment pick-up for external agents
KRZU - Consignment returns for external agents
Item Categories
To configure item categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Item -> Define item categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The system determines the following item categories for the related document types in
documents containing materials with item category group NORM:
Item category LZN for scheduling agreement type LZ
Item category LZMA for scheduling agreement type LZM
Item category LKN for scheduling agreement type LK
Item category KEN for document type ED
Item category EDK for positive corrections (or the manual alternative EDK1 for
negative corrections) for document type EDKO
Item category REN for document type RZ
Item category KAN for document type KAZU
Item category KRN for document type KRZU
Schedule Line Categories
To configure schedule line categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Schedule lines -> Define or Assign schedule line categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The R/3 System contains the following schedule line categories for component suppliers:
L1, BN, L2, and CN for item category LZN
E4, E0, E5, and BN for item category LKN
L2 for item category LZMA (standard for delivery order processing)
Schedule Line Types

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 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.

How to set delivery complete in scheduling agreement automatically

Hi. I would like to request for help on how to flag delivery complete in an scheduling agreement?
When creating a goods receipt against a scheduling agreement, do we need a user-exit or how is it configured in order to check the quantity receivedthe quantity in the goods receipt and compare it with the quantity in the scheduling agreement (/- de tolerance) and, in case the full ordered quantity has been received, set the flag Delivery completed in the scheduling agreement.
Thanks.

Hi,
We regret that the functionality setting of "delivery completed"
indicator automatically for a scheduling agreement is not included in
the SAP standard system.
For scheduling agreements, you must maintain the final delivery
indicator only in the scheduling agreement item.
A maintenance from the goods receipt is useless for scheduling
agreements since the current schedule line situation is generally not
final. Even if all schedule lines are supplied, this does not mean that
no new schedule line might be added. Therefore, for scheduling
agreements,maintenance of final delivery indicator is planned only from
the document item.

Edit

Scheduling Agreement with LPA

Hi,
I am trying to generate schedule lines and release them to delivery schedules with doc type LPA.
I have done the settings in MRP2 view and done the settings in source list, info record and scheduling agreement.
I have created and Plnd Independent requirements in MD61 and executed the planning run in MD02 but unable to create schedule lines.
Could you please advise me if i am missing any settings or config's.
I wan to know how the zones work with LPA and how the whole cycle and the functions available with LPA.
Responses will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Mittu G

hi
These are the Prerequisites befor you go on to SA with release
Scheduling agreement releases (FRC and JIT schedules) can only be generated for scheduling agreements with release documentation (in the standard system, document type LPA).
(In the standard system, the Release docu. indicator is selected for document type LPA in Customizing for Purchasing under
Scheduling Agreement -> Define Document Types.)·
If you wish to work with JIT delivery schedules, the JIT schedule indicator must be set in the material master record (Purchasing or MRP 2 view) and the Additional data of the scheduling agreement item.
You create SA releases by means of the Purchasing menu via
Scheduling agreement -> Create release
Choose release type ->FRC and JIT delivery schedulesSelect scheduling agreements - Specification of plant
Scope of selection- Changed or next date
Creation- According to strategy in profile, Tolerance check active
On the days on which the next FRC date (1st. Monday in the month) or the next JIT date (Monday each week) is reached, scheduling agreements with the above profile settings are selected and SA releases (delivery schedules to be issued to the vendor) created (because the next creation date has been reached).
Reward points if useful
Thanks & Regards

BAPI to create Scheduling Agreement of VA31

Dear gurus,
I need to find the BAPI or Function Module to create Scheduling Agreement of VA31 from the uploaded data. I know that I can use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 to create the sales order of VA01. Can I use the same bapi to create the scheduling agreement of VA31? Both of the screens seems to look quite the same but their order types are different. Any suggestion on this?
Thank you for your help. Have a nice day.

Perform Post Goods Receipt Against Scheduling Agreement

Dear all,
I've weird problem here. This is concering GR against Scheduling Agreement. I've a "LPA" type Scheduling Agreement and all the delivery schedule maintained and schedule line released successfully in ME38.
When I do GR via MIGO by entering the Scheduling Agreement #, a prompt was given with no items selected. Note: My schedule line delivery date = GR posting date.
What I did was, inside MIGO I go to Settings | Default Values and check on "Propose All Items". Finally, the affected line item appears but with "blank" quantity. So, I key in the actual quantity per the released schedule line and complete the GR posting successfully.
Question 1: Why do I need to perform the MIGO propose all items setting? Normal PGR against PO doesn't require this.
Question 2: Is this a standard SAP behavior or I'm doing PGR - scheduling agreement process the wrong way?
Appreciate any expert clarification.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jurgen,
I've read Notes 493404 and I'm facing Question 10
10. Question:
For the goods receipt for the scheduling agreement the system displays error M7 064: "Document xx does not contain any selectable items".
Answer:
A possible reason is that the document is subject to a release strategy and has yet to be released. You can check this using transaction ME33 and release it subsequently if necessary.
Another reason can be that although a confirmation control key that contains a confirmation category with GR assignment has been maintained for the scheduling agreement item, this category has yet to be confirmed. You can check this using transactions ME33 and OMGZ. If necessary, create the relevant confirmation.
Another reason may be that no undelivered schedule line exists up to the posting date. If nevertheless you want to post the GR, you can use transaction ME38 to bring the next schedule line date forward, or in transaction MB01 you can select the "Suggest Zero Lines" field or in transaction MIGO the "Propose All Items" field under Settings - Default values.
From the snapshot of the notes 493404 above:
1. I don't have a release strategy for the scheduling agreement. Have checked via ME33L
2. I didn't implement any confirmation control in the scheduling agreement. Have checked via ME33L
3. I've a delivery schedule line up to the posting date. In my scenario, schedule line date = GR posting date
Therefore, I'm still truly puzzle with the system behavior. Any further help will be most appreciated.
Thanks.

Scales definition in Scheduling agreement

Hi,
In a scheduling agreement, you can maintain condition with scales.
When you do so, at goods receipt time, the system does not look at how many you just received to define the scale to use but look at the target quantity on your scheduling agreement item and choose the scale appropriate for that qty.
Does anyone already had a requirement to calculate the quantity received since the beginning of the scheduling agreement and define the appropriate scale according to that ?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the double message. In is a mistake on my side. It is my first time on this forum...

Correct usage of Scheduling Agreements?

Hi Experts!
One of my groups is using scheduling agreements, however I do not think they are using it the way SAP had intended.
Example: They use Scheduling agreements, similar to a blanket order. However, the blanket order quantity is fluid and the order can remain open even when the initial quantity has been fulfilled. These Scheduling Agreements will contain many items, sometimes around 30-40 line items.
The staff basically conducts two activities for these customers: enter new scheduling agreements with updated validity dates and expedite releases with a less than two week time frame. These expedites are communicated by the customer via email.
The customers submit a 16 week forecast via EDI as well as a firm 2 week JIT. Most scheduling agreement activity occurs systematically, although there are daily expedites for each customer for a few parts.
Initially, when entering a scheduling agreement, the staff does not indicate the JIT schedule. However, they do enter into the Forecast delivery schedule, basically just to activate and allow communication from customer.
My concern is should scheduling agreements contain that many items?
Also, the staff makes many changes in the scheduling agreements and when it reaches the time when the period for the scheduling agreement, what ever material they did not get to ship, they ship it to the customer in one bulk. Are you suppose to do that with scheduling agreements?
In addition, sometimes the staff allocates some of the materials promised to the customer on the scheduling agreements to another customer, then just re-allocates it back at a later time...should this be done or is it bad business practice?
What are good business practices for usage of Scheduling Agreements? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time in advance!

you should not do that the reason is SA is use full for the JIT and promise to deliver things
In addition, sometimes the staff allocates some of the materials promised to the customer on the scheduling agreements to another customer, then just re-allocates it back at a later time...should this be done or is it bad business practice?
It's depent on the company bussiness policy - not rgiht process but if bussiness want to do then what else you can do?

A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity. The following graphic shows the document flow for scheduling agreements.
The same functions are at your disposal for processing scheduling agreements as there are for the sales order, including pricing and availability checks.
In addition to the standard scheduling agreements you can also manage scheduling agreements for the component supplier industry, with their special features that include:
Working with scheduling agreements with EDI output
Entering scheduling agreements in a forecast or just-in-time (JIT) delivery schedule
Using different types of cumulative quantities
Taking into account the automatic fiscal year change used by the component supplier
Managing engineering change statuses
Storing packing proposals
Creating correction deliveries for the scheduling agreement
Working with external service agents
