Scheduling agreement planning in APO

Hi,
  Currently I am planning in APO (SCM 5.1) and have scheduling agreement (type - APO Sch. Agree.)
Planning run created - Schedule lines and using transaction - /SAPAPO/PWBSCH1, create release.
Then I went to external procurement master data and clicked on SA release and executed Schedule line.
I could see it green.
But if I check ECC, I don't see Schedules lines in agreement.
Do let me know if I am missing any steps or any configuration which I might have missed.
In the "Partner" tab within external procurement master data, I changed medium to "XML" and can see one failed IDOC.
How scheduling lines are released from APO to ECC? is it not standard "pulbication of planning result"
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for all your replies, mentioned settings are already maintained and I did check all the queques for any error.
OLTP transfer setting is also maintained as immediate..so I don't need to transfer change pointers through report, as it should immediately be transferred to ECC.
My question is: We have report - create release (transaction - /SAPAPO/PWBSCH1) to release scheduling agreement, so I believe for scheduling agreement we need to use above transaction.
It seems to work, as I can see IDOC but its in failed status.
I have following question:
- Does scheduling line release work in a different way than purchase req, in APO. I did test with purchase req and it was immediately transferred to ECC.
Has somebody worked for schedule agreement scenario in APO?
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sharad

  • Scheduling Agreement: Planning in Frozen Period

    Hi,
    as you know you can set 2 fixed periods for scheduling agreements and configure SAP to create fixed or non fixed schedule lines inside the period.
    Do you know if there is anyway to configure the system in order to prevent it to create new schedule lines inside this period?
    I explain better: we define a contract with the vendor and enstablish that there is a frozen period of 90 days, meaning that from here to 90 days your delivery schedule can't change in any way. Therefore i set the first fixed period of SA to 90 days and tell the system to create fixed schedule lines in that time interval, so they won't be changed. But if a new requirement in the past or within the 90 days comes out and the MRP runs with automatic schedule lines creation enabled, then i get more fixed schedule lines in the past and contractual parameters are violated.
    Any way to prevent this?
    Thanks and best regards

  • How ro delete/cancel procurement Scheduling Agreement Release in APO system

    Hi,
    Can you please tell me the ways to delete procurement schedule agreement release in APO system.
    I have gone through the thread "How to delete the old schedule line release? and found two transactions but it seems both the transactions like /sapapo/cmds_del  & sappao/cmds_sc02 are used for sales scheduling agreement release deletion.
    The system is not allowing me to delete the same in APO system as these are APO scheduling agreements.
    Please help me on the same.Thanks in advance.Revert back if any further clarification is required.
    regards,
    kaushik

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply again.
    The /SAPAPO/DELETE_PP_ORDER program does not select the release schedule lines though it selects the Scheduling Agreement Schedule Line (Not released) for deletion.
    The transaction /SAPAPO/PWBSRC2 for Deleting External Procurement Relationship but as long as the released schedule line exists , it is not possible to delete the scheduling agreements.
    I have gone through the help.sap.com site and I was not able to found anything about deletion or cancel/closing of Scheduling Agreement Release.
    Still waiting for the solution.

  • Scheduling agreement release in APO

    Hey Gurus,
    We are planning and releasing scheduling agreements in APO through the product view.  The problem that we are having is that we can't see these released schedule lines in MD04 after the schedule lines are released in APO.  Is there somethign with the CIF that needs to be set up for this?  We already have integration models set up for PIR's and SchAgreements already.
    Also, we checked the /SAPAPO/CCR reconciliation report and didn't see anythign stuck in there   Do you guys have any suggestions for us?
    Sincerely,

  • Schedule Agreement - Planned delivery time

    Can you still use planned delivery time when using Scheduling Agreements?  Or does this field need to be set to 0 for the delivery lines to get created properly when using JIT/FRC schedules?  If we cannot use Planned delivery time, is there another field that can be used to hold the Vendors lead time.  We want to take this into consideration when determining the end date of the Scheduling Agreement.

    Hi,
    the planned delivery time field on the material master is designed to be used when it cannot find the correct data from the info record. It should always contain the planned delivery time that should be applied if the vendor is not specified.
    the same field on the info record should contain the planned delivery period for the appropriate vendor.
    This field does not have to be 0 if you are using JIT etc.

  • Scheduling Agreement & Planning Time Fence

    Hello,
    I read a lot of articles on Planning Time Fence and the MRP Types P1 to P4 that goes with it. And I have tested it out in a Testing Environment.
    But I can't get it to do what I need.
    This is a normal planning with no PTF and MRP Type PD.
    Sometimes we have false requirements that show up in the past due to human error. When this happens, MRP rolls during the night and adds a bunch of deliveries in the past to cover the requirement.
    I wanted to use the PTF to prevent this. Meaning that extra deliveries would get added by MRP but after a PTF and not Firm deliveries. So that once the error is corrected, MRP rolls again and deleted all the extra deliveries it added.
    ** Only P2 and P4 adds deliveries after the PTF, but I need it to act normal on a day to day basis aswell and have MRP create deliveries like the print screen above. To add non-Firm deliveries after the PTF is just in rare cases of human error.
    Not sure if my explanation is clear.
    Patricia

    Hi Patricia,
    The planning time fence is there to stop MRP from making changes to requirements that fall within the planning time fence.
    Your planning time fence is a rolling period which shifts by 1 day each day and is calculated as of the current date. Yesterdays date is passed so it would not make sense for a planning time fence to use a date in the past to start it's calculation.
    Everything that falls before the end of the planning time fence will not be changed by MRP and you will see that all these schedule lines in MD04 will have an * assigned meaning they are firmed for MRP.
    If you manually add schedule lines in the past, the planning time fence will not stop you from doing this. The planning time fence will only stop MRP from making changes.
    By the way:
    If you manually add requirements to the scheduling agreement then MRP will never change these requirements as these are fixed requirements.
    If your customer would add requirements in the past or you add independent requirements in the past and your current stock does not cover the requirements the system will generate schedule lines and will put these directly after the planning time fence with an exception message assigned to them.
    As a side note:
    I always wonder why such questions arrive in the forum as this is something that can be very easily tested in the test environment.

  • Delete/Stop Scheduling Agreement Release (Purchasing)

    Hi,
    I have a question concerning releases of a purchasing scheduling agreement in SAP APO. Basically very simple - how can I delete them or at least stop them? I did not find any transaction or report to do so (only for SD scheduling agreement releases). I know that there is a functionality of "dynamic stopping" of release done by the system but how can I do it manually? If there is no such function (which I could not really believe) what would be the business scenario to stop such a release (releases are created by APO, but I manually want to delete them). There has to be such functionality...
    Many thanks in advance

  • APO type of scheduling agreements

    Hi Experts,
    Here I really struggling with source of supply determination for APO type of scheduling agreements. In my case for OLTP type scheduling agreements, source of supply is getting determined but not for APO type. I have maintained required master data(LP type and ext planning indicator 1) in ECC. Please give your inputs this is very critical situation.
    Thanks,

    Are the transportation lanes in APO maintained properly?

  • Planned delivery time in Scheduling agreement and MRP

    Hello,
    Do you know is it possible to determine system so that MRP run will consider the planned delivery time from the scheduling agreement line instead of material master? Now the system read planned delivery time from material master when creating schedule lines automatically by MRP-run.

    This can be customized in

    Here you can select the indicator "Scheduling according to purchasing info record or agreement" either at plant or MRP group level.

  • Planned Delivery time in case of Scheduling Agreement

    Hi All,
    Does system consider the planned delivery time in case of Scheduling Agreement for Vendor like in normal Purchase order and requisition?
    I am doing the MRP run, but system is taken planned delivery time into consideration. I have one material that is Inhouse produced material for plant X and Y Plant needs this material for further making of a finished goods.
    Y plant have scheduling agreement for STO from plant X. After MRP Run required Delivery date in plant X for Material is same as plant Y. but from Plant X to Y, it take 4 days to reach. So Ideally in Plant X this delivery date should be less than 4 days as plant Y.
    Please look into the issue and reply if you have some answers.
    Thanks
    Pavan

    Hope you have maintained different Planned Delivery times in plant X and Plant Y as per your requirement. For procurement in Plant Y the system would consider the planned delievry time maintained in Plant Y. If you want in-house production time to be considered with Basis date sheduling during MRP run in PLant X then enter the in-house production time approprietely. Else if ou want to consider the exact routing times then consider Lead time scheduling in plant X.
    If the above are maintained properly then you should get the desired result.

  • Planned delivery cost for the scheduling agreement

    Hi Experts
    1. I have an requirement to post Invoice ver. for the Planned delivery cost (freight,customs duty,CVD etc) against the Scheduling Agreement just like Import Purchases with checking off the GR Based IV Indicator before doing the GR
    I tried it but its giving me that no delivery costs are Planned in the Scheduling agreements it runs fine in case of the PO because PO is a time independent.  Please inform how to post the same for schedule agreement with time dependent indicator on. I tried switching off the time dependent indicator and the system allowed, but my requirement is to Post I.V for the delivery cost with the time dependent indicator on.
    Appreciate if you can suggest something in this case Urgently .
    2. Aother issue is we have some uploaded Scheduling agreement from legacy system with Time dependent conditions. For this we need to post planned delivery cost in Miro. Since the system is not allowing to post, how to about for this. Shall we enter the delivery cost in unplanned delivery cost in Miro and post.  Please suggest if any alternate solution is available.
    Regards
    Arvind

    Hi,
    As you know if the delivery cost document is not posted during GR the
    delivery cost is not proposed during invoice (MIRO). Planned delivery
    cost will be proposed in invoice only when there are records in EKBZ
    table. The EKBZ table will be updated when delivery cost is posted
    during GR itself.
    Please ensure in the PO itself thatr the conditions have been defined
    properly with the relevant amounts and values.
    During GR when planned delivery cost conditions are present in PO,
    system checks for values in amount field. Then only appropriate
    calculations will be done for delivery cost and planned delivery cost
    document will posted during GR and hence updates EKBZ table.
    Solution to this issue is described in below steps,
    1) reverse the invoice document
    2) reverse GR document.
    3) You have to give values in amount field in relevant conditions ZGDS
       in the PO.
       If you face any issues changing the values, delete above conditions
       and put it again manually and give values in amount field also.
    4) Post GR once again, delivery cost document will also be posted.
       You can check it in PO history.
    5) During invoice select Item + planned delivery cost and post the
       invoice. If you need planned delivery cost to be posted separately,
       then you can post individual invoice for item and delivery cost.
    Please note it is not possible to post delivery costs for documents with
    multiple accountassignments. 
    For your second question, I am afraid I can not answer. Please open a new ntry in the forum, so that someone else can answer it.

  • Is planned delivery time is considered in scheduling agreement ????

    Hi experts
    problem is that the schedule lines (for external procurement) generated from MRP are not taking the "" Planned delivery time into consideration"". System is only taking the G.R processing time.
    I have mentioned the Planned delivery time in .
    1) Scheduling agreement for 1 day.
    2) In material master for one day.
    3) In info record 1 day.
    e.g Suppose req date is 13.07.2008. MRP run date 4.07.2008.
    a) Planned delivery time = 1 day . B) G .R processing time = 3 days.
    Now when i run the MRP on 4.07.2008.
    Schedule line is generated on - 10.07.2008
    Please Guide . How i can take care of that time which is requiered at vendor ends.
    Regards
    Rahul Bhardwaj

    Go to OPPQ for that plant
    Click on "External Procurement " tab and check if you have maintained any planned delivery time?
    Tick indicator " Scheduling info record/agreement " (This will take Planned del time specified in scheduling info rec or agreement)

  • Scheduling agreement with Consumption based planning

    Dear Experts,
    I Have a Scenario,
    I need to Bulit a Laptop which is a Finished Material, and the Components like Hardisk, Processor, Ram, Casing, Monitor are my Rawmaterials. By using these rawmaterials we are building the parent material.
    My Client requirement is 1) Plan and schedule the requirement
    2) Replenish the stock based on consumption based planning.
    My query is
    1) How should i proceed for mm based procurement ?
    2) Does i need to create scheduling agreement for rawmaterials and and maintain schedule lines ?
    3) For which materials i need to run the MRP ? weather its parent material or Component material ?
    4) What are the sequence of process need to be carried out ?
    Required ur valuable inputs on this.
    Best Regards

    Hi
    Consumption based planning and Scheduling agreement are two different functions.
    Consumption-based planning is based on past consumption values and uses the forecast or other statistical procedures to determine future requirements. The procedures in consumption-based planning do not refer to the master production schedule. That is, the net requirements calculation is not triggered either by planned independent requirements or dependent requirement. Instead, it is triggered when stock levels fall below a predefined reorder point or by forecast requirements calculated using past consumption values.
    A form of outline purchase agreement under which materials are procured on predetermined dates within a certain time period.
    With release documentation (in the standard system, document type LPA)
    The schedule lines in the system have internal character. This means that you can change them in any way you wish. The schedule lines stored in the system are not transmitted to the vendor until you explicitly create a scheduling agreement release (which may take one of two forms: a forecast delivery schedule or a JIT delivery schedule).
    The release documentation allows you to display the releases transmitted to a vendor over a certain period in order to establish exactly when you transmitted which information to the vendor.
    Without release documentation (in the standard system, document type LP)
    The schedule lines immediately have official character, i.e. they are immediately transmitted to the vendor the moment you save them (transmission time-spot 4 for messages). There is no release documentation in this case.
    It cannot be explained in few lines. You need to study the below link.

  • Problems in transferring Scheduling Agreements from ECC to APO

    Hi All
    We are facing a strange problem in transferring scheduling agreements to APO.
    When we create the integration model, it shows the selected scheduling agreements and vendors. On activating the integration model in CFM2 or CFM3, we do not get any error.
    But when we check in APO, we do not see any scheduling agreements.
    Can any one tell us what could be problem or where should we check to identify the issue ?
    Best Regards
    Mitesh

    Hi Mitesh,
    Did you try deleting all the integration models in CFM7 and trying again ? You could also try deleting the blocked queues in SMQ1.
