GR refer to schedule agreement without release

Hi

I also see some difference between schedule agreement type(LP/LPA). but this not solved my issue.

Hi Henry
If u want to release the schedule agreement even though u use LP document type then
Goto SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Schedule agreement-Define document types....Here in LP document type, click the check box of release docu. Then system will prompt for release...

If your strategy is set up so that all three levels must release the agreement before it is final released I do not believe you can generate a printout.

Scheduling Agreement - Cannot Release, cant create message in LPA

Hello,
I have gone through all the threads on Scheduling Agreement but could not find the answer to the problem I am facing.
I created scheduling agreement through LP, everything went through smooth.
Now while create scheduling agreement through LPA, I am facing these problems, I cannot create output message while using ME38, but can create message through ME32L, but message output through me32L just creates printout of required quantity, no line items printed on it, and when I try to create output message through ME38 the message window comes in display mode, whereas while creating output message through LP, it allowed me to configure it. So first question, how can I enter my output setting in ME38 where SA is created through LPA.
Secondly document is created through LPA, but I cannot release it through ME84. I followed all the required settings, but its not letting me release the document, the traffic light is constant RED. Any ideas?
Lastly, No GR. Going through forum messages, I learnt that until the document is not released I cannot do GR. The dates of lines I changed it to post date, even behind the post date, but its still coming up as document doesnot have selectable items. Please help
Thanks/Afshad

Hello Prasand,
Your answer was helpful, but all these steps mentioned by you were already followed by me. My one question got answered there, why I get the messages in ME38 in uneditable format, but when I use ME84 for SA release, the result comes up in Red, and there I dont see any option to go further. Am I missing any step before it?
I clicked on List>Print Preview, the messages of JIT are there, then I click List> Print, dialog box comes up asking Output Device, I use default device LP01 there and then when I click OK message comes up Spool request (number 0000005941) created without immediate output and the problem remains no Sa released. Any help?
3. Ensure that the output message condition records for output types LPJ1 / LPH1 maintained.
Is this line refering to Customizing>MM>Purchasing>Messages>Output control>conditions tables?Define Condition tables, if yes I dont know how to configure this and havent read anywhere how to get this part configured.
I configured Output control>Messages Determination Schemas>Define messages schemas for SA>Define Message determination schemas, there in control data, i put LPJ1 and LPH1 requirements as 105 which is for delivery schedule, earlier it was pointing to 109 and 111, then Assign Schema: Sa release/expiditer I checked the R indicator. Am I correct?
I guess without the SA release, I cannot do the GR against my SA as when I do GR it gives message no selectable items.

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.

Schedule agreement LPA

Dear All,
I have maintained the Scheduling agreement with LPA doc type with creation profile 0001 after JIT indicator maintained in material master.
I maintained delivery schedule in ME38 and saved.
But when i try to Generate JIT or Forecast schedules error appears as below.
Error generating release against scheduling agreement (cause 2)
Message no. 06857
Diagnosis
The function module for generating a scheduling agreement release (forecast delivery schedule or JIT delivery schedule) has run up against an error, causing processing to be terminated.
In this case the cause of the error is 2.
System Response
The error may involve one of the following situations:
1: The nature of the error cannot be specified precisely.
2: The forecast delivery schedule or the JIT delivery schedule was generated but no message record could be generated.
3: A document type for which the functions "Generate forecast delivery schedule" or "Generate JIT delivery schedule" are not defined may be involved.
4: A material for which the function "Generate JIT delivery schedule" is not defined may be involved.
5: A scheduling agreement that has not yet been released by all persons responsible may be involved.
6: The factory calendar has not been maintained correctly.
Procedure
Error source 1:
Check whether the vendor and plant shown in the PO actually exist in the system.
Error source 2:
Check the Customizing facility for message determination with respect to delivery schedules created under scheduling agreements (print operation '9').
Error source 3:
In Customizing, maintain the document types accordingly ( Define document types for scheduling agreement). Then create a new scheduling agreement with a document type for which release documentation is defined.
Error source 4:
Maintain the JIT delivery schedule indicator in the material master record.
Error source 5:
Have the scheduling agreement released by the person(s) responsible.
Error source 6:
If you are using a release creation profile without aggregation, you must maintain the factory calendar for the next 999 days.
Please advice how to proceed further?
I tried to run ME84 but no output found.
Regards

DEAR ALL,

system donot show the END OF FIRM ZONE and END OF TRADE OFF ZONE
what setting was missed . pls clear me .
Thanks
v raj

Hi Raj,
In SAP IMG > Material Management > Purchasing > SA > Define document type
Check the Field Selection for the Document type. Eg;-LPA = LPL
Then in SAP IMG > Material Management > Purchasing > SA > Define Screen Layout at Document Level
Over there Check on:- LPL
Scheduling Control > Firm/Trade-off Zone if flaged in optional.
Hope this will solve your issue.

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

Scheduling agreement with relase - doc type LPA with JIT

Hi
can any one give the steps for Scheduling agreement with relase - doc type LPA with JIT process.. and explain how the JIT will work in SA.
Pls advise what are config required and what the user tcode needed to perform the SA with JIT concept.

Dear Friend,
Without release documentation(Document type LP)
The delivery schedule lines have official character-that is to say,they are transmitted to the vendor as they are saved in the system.The system does not document in detail releases aganist the scheduling agreement that have been sent to the vendor.Therefore,in the case of the document type without release documentation,the message control facility should be set up in such a way that a message is immediately sent to vendor if any changes are made to the delivey schedule stored in the system.
With release documnetation(Document type LPA)
If you use scheduling agreement with release documentation,the delivery schedule lines are not transmitted directly to the vendor.Intially ,the lines of the delivery schedule stored in the system for an LPA scheduling agreement for an internal information only.A message informing the vendor of your material requirements cannot be transmitted to the vendor until you explicitly create an SA release,that is forecast (FRC) or Just in Time(JIT) delivey schedule.Through this process,you can change the way schedule lines are represented.With release documentation,you can disply the SA releases(delivery schedules) transmitted to a vendor over a certain period of any time.This enables you to trace precisely when you sent which information to vendor.

Document type LPA in schedule agreement

any one can explain me document type LPA in schedule agreement. I read books as that is document type with release documentation. And what is the diff between LP and LPA?

Dear,
Please find below, which I found by search and posted by fellow collegues earlier....
Default quantity for goods receipt
In the standard system, the quantity open to date from the last- transmitted SA release is used in the case of scheduling agreements with release documentation (document type LPA). In the case of scheduling agreements without release documentation (document type LP), the open quantity to date is used.
Document Type of Scheduling Agreement
As a rule, the APO scheduling agreement in the SAP R/3 system is a scheduling agreement with the document type LP or a scheduling agreement without release documentation.
If you use scheduling agreements of the document type LPA without confirmation control key then no default quantities can be determined from the release upon goods receipt.
If you use scheduling agreements of the document type LPA with confirmation control key then the default quantities from the confirmation (shipping notification) are used.
As a rule, the OLTP scheduling agreement in the SAP R/3 System is a scheduling agreement with the document type LPA.
A scheduling agreement is a longer trem agreement with a vendor covering the supply of materials subject to predefined conditions.The conditions are valid for a pre defined period and a pre defined total purchase order quantity.
You can enter the Target value in the header data of the scheduling agreement.You can enter the Target quantity in the item overview for each item
You can use scheduling agreement with or without release documentation.The advantage of working with scheduliing agreement release documentation is that you always have a record of when you sent which delivery schedule information to your vendor,which you can display at any time.
Without release documentation(Document type LP)
The delivery schedule lines have official character-that is to say,they are transmitted to the vendor as they are saved in the system.The system does not document in detail releases aganist the scheduling agreement that have been sent to the vendor.Therefore,in the case of the document type without release documentation,the message control facility should be set up in such a way that a message is immediately sent to vendor if any changes are made to the delivey schedule stored in the system.

Schedule agreement releases

How I will come to know the Schedule Agreement is released or not in ME84? LPA is agreement type.
ME84 I have executed and next screen green light is coming.
But while going to ME33L and seeing Release number ,its 0.
Please explain how I can do this?
Thanks

Hi PS,
You need to output the last relase. Once you process it's output successfully, it would be considered. Otherwise not.
Any release which is not transmitted, is not considered as valid for use in SA.

ME38 resets Release strategy of Scheduling agreement

Hello,
It seems when the users change the delivery date in the delivery schedule (transaction ME38), the system in some cases resets the release strategy of the scheduling agreement from "Release" to "Not Release".It happened only in some case,release indicator set to "4" in our case.
I cannot understand why this happens.
Has anyone encountered such a problem before.
Thanks
Sunil

Below are the (changed) item fields :
Purchasing Document Item Change Date AEDAT
Item Delivery Date EINDT
Schedule Line is "Fixed "FIXKZ
Below are the (changed) header fields :
Release Indicator: Purchasing Document FRGKE
Release status FRGZU
Purchasing document processing state PROCSTAT
Item and header changes have same "Change document number " and transaction code "ME38" , this happened only in some cases,Rel Strategy is on document type level ,I am also confused on this .
Please assist on this
