Scheduling Agreement - Pr. Date Cat.

Hi,
What exactly is the use of Pr. Date Cat. (specifically: 5 - GR Date) in the Conditions portion in Additional Data when creating Scheduling Agreement (ME33L)?
Does it really have any effect on the valuation of the material during Goods Receipt? As can be understood when displaying Help (F1).
"If you choose the date of goods receipt, for example, a new price will
be determined upon the arrival of the goods, causing the item to be
revaluated at this time."
I have created several test scenarios but the GR price always takes the price in the Scheduling Agreement even if i have an Info Record with a different price on the validity date on which my goods reception falls.
Can someone please confirm it's functionality and how exectly the Pr. Date Cat. affects the Agreement and Goods Receipt?
Thanks!

Hi
Price date category will affect the valuation during the Goods receipt.
If the Price date category is 5 - GR date then the system will search for the price in inforecord for the GR date then it will be considered for valuation.
In you scenario please check the price date category is maintained in purchasing inforecord as well.
Hope it helps
Thanks/Karthik

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?
Thanks in advance
artur

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?

GRN vs Schedule Agreement validity Date

Dear All,
We got very severe issue, we have created the Scheduling Agreements(document type -LP) between the two plants (Cross Company Codes) with the vendor code created under the Account Group : 0007.
During the creation of the Scheduling Agreements , we have not assigned the Plant code in Vendor Master (In Purchasing organisation data-> Extras-> plant Assignment).
So the shipping data did not get determined per material in scheduling agreement and scheduling agreements created as the normal Scheduling agreements (NOT as Stock transfer scheduling agreements)
and plants started doing the transaction(In Production server) as Normal Purchase Sale (by creating sale order and GRN via Scheduling Agreement) .
But now , it is required to change the process via Sale -Purchase to Stock Transfer , so we have changed the Vendor master and assign the Plant to the vendors.
But the transaction has been going on already created scheduling agreements. So how Delete/Close the existing scheduling agreements. and we need to create new scheduling agreements(Stock transfer scheduling agreements).
I have tried out with Validity period (by shortning the Validity Period) , so that existing SA should NOT be invalid for GRN, but GRN date has no control with Validity period of SA.
Please suggest how to go about it.

Nitiin

Hi,
Try This
Do not maintain Delievry Schedule in Me38 or you can try with setting Block vendor in Source List or you can change validity period in source list.

Scheduling agreement pricing date category

Hi
i have a situation where the pricing date category in the additional data tab in scheduling agreement is defaulted to value 5 in display mode while i create a PO for certain vendors.
At first i checked for authorizations,but that wasn't helpful.
The field is in display mode when creating/changing an agreement.
pricing date category wasn't maintained in vendor master or info record for these vendors.
It happens only for certain vendors.
can someone tell me,how this is happening.

Hi,
The field price control cannot be changed for scheduling agreements
with time-dependent conditions, it is always set to '5' (GR date).
The reason is that the delivery from the vendor does not necessarily
cover exactly one scheduling line; in many cases several scheduling
lines with different delivery dates are affected - which delivery date
should the system take in such a situation? In other words: there is
no scheduling line based GR in the SAP system - therefore it does
not make sense to change the field.

Scheduling Agreements-Not able processes shipments

When i try to make any changes to the delivery document (change/delete) created by the combination of two scheduling agreements the system shoots an error ME803 dump.txt. I looked at Note 100690 which says inconsistency and executed the correction report to fix the same. But whenever new delivery is created from these scheduling agreements encounters the same problem. Need to run the correction program to reprocess the delivery document. This is affecting the shipments from other plants.
Delivery Quantity is getting updated wrongly
Can any one tell me the root cause of this problem.
Thanks in advance

Balu

Hi Will,
It's an outline agreement that is created for one or more materials and outlines the overall expected quantity of the material(s) to be delivered to the customer over a specific period of time.
Use
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.
Structure
The structure of scheduling agreements with delivery schedules resemble that of other sales documents in the R/3 System, in particular the standard scheduling agreement.
Data that applies to the entire document appears in the header; data about materials appears at item level; and delivery dates and quantities appear in the schedule lines within the delivery schedule. Additionally, the system maintains a history that permits you to compare and contrast various generations of delivery schedules.
Integration
Data in scheduling agreements comes from three sources:
The customer sends in requested quantities and dates, normally by Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
The component supplier enters data manually
The system automatically copies data into the scheduling agreement from master records
Hope it helps. Please reward if useful.

Schedule agreement-JIT and creation profile (are necessary to maintain)

Hi Friends ,
I am doing schedule line agreement in this way.
1) Create SA agrement -ME31L
2) Maintain schedule lines -ME38
3) MIGO-
4)MIRO
That is working.
A ) But then why it is necessary to maintain in material master under purchasing tab- JIT
and
B) in vendor master -Creation profile
Please can u explain me A and B
Regards,
Mahesh.

Hi Mahesh,
Maintaining JIT in material master is necessary only if you wish to Use JIT scheduling agreement schedule lines, if you are fine with only FRC schedule line, then you don't need to update this field. This is a control on the material level, like you know if a certain material can't be managed on a JIT level then you will not use it, so JIT agreements can't be created for it.
I don't feel Creation Profile is mandatory for vendor master, because you can opt to enter the creation profile in the Scheduling agreement additional data. Creation profile basically has a lot of control function, here isthe abstract from SAP Help
The creation profile determines:
    Which event triggers the creation of a scheduling agreement release (changes involving the lines of the overall schedule and/or the reaching of the next transmission date)
    How the delivery dates are shown (aggregation and release horizon)
    Whether Backlogs and Immediate Requirements are determined and shown in the scheduling agreement (SA) release
    Whether a tolerance check is carried out for SA releases that are created due to changes to the overall delivery schedule in the system

Price date and Pr.Date Cat in Scheduling Agreement

Hi Gurus,
Anyone know what is the purpose of these 2 fields in SA? If I enter the price date with Pr.Date Cat = no control, what is the impact? Will system based on the Price Date to get the price in the info record?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sue,
The PR date category determines which date is to be used for price determination purposes.
If you maintain as "no control"it will take price based on the document date.

Price determination date control in Scheduling agreement (ME33)

<<Do not ask for or offer points>>
Dear SAP chams,
I have one doubt at the time of scheduling agreement creation. I am creating scheduling agreement trough t'code ME33. In the same, Select line item, go to item data, go to Additional data. Here the field Pr. Date Cat (Price Determination (Pricing) Date Control) contains the value "5" (i.e. GR date). I want to change this value. How can i change this determination ??...
Helpful answers will surely be awarded by points.
Thanks and regard,
Tarpan Vadaliya
Edited by: Matt on Feb 27, 2010 10:47 PM

Hi
Price determination category 5 cannot be change in scheduling agreement if your document type is time dependent. (See config spro>mm>purchasing>scheduling agreement>define document type. In that you will see a tick for time dependent condition)
If the config tick is removed then you can change price determination to any other option.

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.

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.

Sudhir
