Scheduling and capacity formulas

Dear Gurus,
I have a question in work centers and scheduling.
I am using a machine category work center in one operation. Operation time in capacity tab is 7.5 hours.
Number of capacities is 80. So I have 450 minutes * 80 capacities = 37800 minutes.
My processing formula for capacity is SAP006 Machine * Operation quantity / Base quantity.
In routing I have given the processing time as 4 minutes for a base quantity of 1.
My processing scheduling formula is SAP002 Machine * Operation quantity / Base quantity / Operation splits.
Operation quantity is 3600.
So capacity req is 4*3600/1=14400 minutes.
The system is taking this time and scheduling the operation for 14400 minutes (=32 working days)
It is not considering the number of capacities available(80). How can I bring in the number of capacities into the formula? I think the number of splits does not take care of the number of capacities. right?
Please guide me.
thanks and regards,
Raghu

Dear,
1) Do I need to give this number of capacities again in routing ?Not mandatory but if you have 7 individual capacity but you want to schedule the order on 5 individual capacity in that case you need to define it as 5. Please note required splitting indicator is must. Do I need to change it now? Don't change you can check your result in routing it self go to CO02ExtraSchedulingschedule and check your result with number of split and without number of split.
2) In the workcenter I have two Capacity categories machine and labor.
Working time 6 AM to 6AM with a break of 30 minutes.
Capacity utilization 95
Operating time 22.33 hours
For machine capacity category
Processing formula Machine rqmts is SAP006
number of capacities is 43
total capacity with 43 machines is 57,598.50 minutes.
For labor capacity category
Processing formula Labor rqmts is SAP007 and number of capacities(workmen) is 86 with a total capacity is 115197 minutes.
Dear in SAP scheduling is carried out for only one capacity category i;e machine because it is critical resource, Labour we use to calculate the cost of order. Scheduling time = SET Up+ Processing time (noting but machine time) as labour are simultaneously working on machine. So as your work center category is 001 then number of split is =43.
Hope clear to you.

OPU5 settings and Capacity planning-CM01

Hi All,
I have a confusion while configuring the settings for scheduling for planned orders in REM environment PE order type, when i select the scheduling and capacity requirements in DS section system shows me capacity requirements in CM01,CM50 reports and also DS tab in planned order but when i deselect the same check boxes there si no data in CM01, CM02 or CM50,
If I need to generate the CM01, etc reports in REM environment , then do i need to select DS check boxes also?
My OPU5 settings are as attached in this case CM01 reports are fine.
Regards,
Anupam Sharma

Hi Anupam,
Screen shot is missing. Rate based scheduling is fine for REM.
Create a "Run schedule" planned order and schedule it via rate-based scheduling.
In transaction OPU5, choose order type PE and the plant you use.
Choose "Details" and in the field "Scheduling level", set "1 Via rate-based scheduling" and save the change.

Problem in scheduling while giving formula in resourse

AS per requirement, there r 2 activities in a phase for resourse.
Duration and power consumption.
Activity duration required for scheduling phase(operation).
When i entered formula in setup field for scheduling, it is not scheduled.But when the same formula entered in other(name of field like setup,prcessing etc) field ,it is scheduled.
So , why it is ?

Hy Chetan,
There many confusing things,
First -
When i entered formula in setup field for scheduling, it is not scheduled.But when the same formula entered in other(name of field like setup,prcessing etc) field ,it is scheduled.
In which field you are entering the formula - It should be in Scheduling view and field is Other Fomula.
Second
in scheduling veiw initially only one field(name of field -- other field),where i entered the formula.It is working.
But when i customise for other field like setup and processing formula field and i entered the same formula .This is not worked.
What is meaning by Customise for other field like set up and Processing foumula field ?
Third
Which is your Formula for Scheduling is it Zsap00 or Zsap01.
Pls confirm.

How to run mrp and capacity leveling through heuritics.

Hi,
How to run mrp and capacity leveling through heuritics.
What are the setps required for production planning run this thing in the heuritics in pp/ds?
Regards,
Sunil

Sunil,
APO PP/DS doesn't have a 1-to-1 match for MRP/Cap levelling per se. There are, though, a limitless number of ways to achieve the results you want.
Start with a basic PP planning MRP - SAP_PP_002, which will should create all necessary planned orders
Then try a DS heuristic to schedule your orders according to capacity. Schedule Sequence SAP001 is a good starting point. This can be used to schedule your cap relevant work centers such that they fully load the capacity available, similar to cap levelling.

Difference between r/3 planning( lead time scheduling) and APO planning

Hello APO Gurus,
Please let me know the difference between the R/3 capacity planning by using lead time scheduling and APO capacity planning for a work centre.
Both in both cases you can use the lead time from routing OPERATION.
Please let me know where the planning differs.

Infinite scheduling with capacity leveling.......

Hi there ,
If we go for infinite scheduling & then after MRP run go for capacity leveling ..........
then will we get the same effect as finite scheduling .....
Please suggest me
Regards
Kaushik

Hi Kaushik,
If my understanding is correct, you are asking for the difference between manual and automatick despatching of orders in capacity levelling?
when we set finite scheduling in capacity header view of work center, and run MRP with scheduling parameter 2 set.
In capacity planning the availabile capacity will be compared with the required capacity and the load will be depicted as a graph or in table format. This only gives the load situation against the period.
For this the despatching of order will be done manually based upon the load per day by a scheduler in capacity levelling.
And to add more,
In R/3 finite scheduling is not there and this is drawback and APO was put in front for this purpose.
Can you confirm me whether the system automatically levels the order or despatchs the order in finite scheduling.
Best Regards,
Sendil

Scheduling agreement Fcst del schedules and JIT question

We have a requirement of not sending forecast delivery schedules TOR to MRP from SA.
Instead, we take this forecast delivery schedules and massage the data (add or delete) and then send it to MRP as regular forecast (PIR).
so when the JIT schedules come, does the forecast get consumed with the JIT's in MD04?
lets say, I got 100 pc for 2nd week of July 2011 as forecast delivery schedule from customer and I loaded them into MRP as PIR
and I got JIT for only 90 PC for the 2nd week of july 2011.in MD04 will the 90 get consumed from the PIR??

925,
so in system it will show on 3/21 monday
I guess this means that you are entering using a Day format rather than Week format.
You have answered you own question already. If the online SAP help, which you have read and reasonably paraphrased, is not clear enough to make you understand this, I cannot help you.
JIT horizon is 3/23, Forecast is for 3/21.
As I stated before, even though it may in your mind represent a week's demand, it is still for one day. There is no bucketing, nor time-based disaggregation, nor consumption. It is just a scheduling agreement.
You wrote
am using MRP indicator D. that means within jit horizon, consider my jit quanity for requirements. and after jit horizon consider my forecast delivery schedules as requirements.
. This is a reasonable paraphrase of the SAP online help. Do you believe this?
Forecast schedule is for 3/21. NOT for W 12/2011. This is before the JIT horizon, isn't it? What do you think will happen to the forecast schedule, looking at the last 'rules' you just wrote? and as stated in the SAP help that you read?
Now you want to enter JIT schedules. 21/22/23/24/25/26. JIT horizon is 23. 24/25/26 are after JIT horizon. What do you think will happen, based on the 'rules' you just wrote?
I feel my time is being wasted when you keep asking me these questions, already having the answers explicitly stated in SAP oinline help. Since you do not have access to a system, this cannot be a support issue, it is a evidently a matter of idle curiosity for you. I therefore believe I will will move onto other forum questions, where there is a possibility that the questioners will get some business benefit from my answers.

Forecast delivery schedules and JIT deliveries

Hi Gurus,
Got a question on sales scheduling agreements schedule lines. Our customer sends 10 weeks of forecast delivery schedules and 2 weeks of JIT deliveries. which one of these two are passed to MD04?
Assuming only forecast delivery schedules are seen in MD04:
Assuming customer sends forecast delivery schedule for week2 as 50. but in JIT deliveries he only sent 40 for that week. if only forecast deliveries are see in md04, then my forecast and planning quantity is 50 , but actually my JIT delivery is only 40. AM I producing 10 extra? that means my planning is wrong?

Difference between Scheduling agreement delivery schedule and PO delivery s

Dear All,
Please tell the difference between the Scheduling agreement delivey schedule and PO delivery schdule.
In PO itself, we can give the delivery schedule.
Then what is the purpose of making scheduling agreement and maintain schedule in ME38?
Regards

Hi,
Difference between Scheduling agreement and PO is while PO is a legal document whatever the delivery schedules you mention in PO, you are liable to pay for the entire qty in case of cancellation
In case of scheduling agreement, we have Firm Zone and Tradeoff Zone to provide some cushion against paying for the entire qty you have ordered
Firm zone: (go-ahead for production)
If the date of a schedule line lies within the firm zone, the vendor has the go-ahead to produce the relevant quantity with the assurance that the orderer will bear any and all material and production costs associated with the scheduled quantity in the event of subsequent cancellation by the latter.
Trade-off zone: (go-ahead for procurement of input materials)
If the date of a schedule line lies within the trade-off zone, the vendor has the go-ahead to purchase any input materials necessary to produce the scheduled quantity. The orderer will recompense him in full for such outlay (but not for any other production costs) in the event that he should subsequently cancel the scheduled quantity.
Schedule lines that lie beyond the firm and trade-off zones fall within the planning zone (forecast zone) and are for rough guidance only, being without any commitment on the part of the orderer.
In case of PO if you want to cancel the order, you are liable to pay for the entire quantity, while in case of Scheduling agreement if you want to cancel the schedule and if the days fall in Firm zone or trade off zone or planning zone you have to pay only for raw materials or assembled products according to the above description

PO Delivery Schedule and GRN linkage

Hello,
A PO has a line Item and for that Line item , number of Delivery schedule lines have been created.
Now for One delivery schedule line (EKET-EINDT) , Multiple GRN's Created and similarly for other delivery schedule lines too.
I want to know for which delivery schedule line which multiple GRN's Prepared.I have searched EKBE table, (no delivery schedule line reference is given), also EKBEH, EKETH , but no records found.
From EKET Table I can get Scheduled Qty.and Delivered Qty. but not multiple GRN Qty for that schedule line.
Please help to give solution.

Thank you charlie for quick response.
Tried to run ME2N and selected GR line number and Del Sch , But system showing no entries found for 1st GRN line.
When selected second line and Del schedule, System gives message " Pl select valid line.
I want to develop a program for report on mismatch in delivery schedule and actual delivery date ( GRN Date).
Please let me know if there is any table from where i can get the dates of GRN creation according to delivery schedule line.
Thanks

How to schedule and deliver a report in OBIEE 11g as an link or url to the report ?

I am using OBIEE 11.1.1.6. We have a requirement to schedule and deliver reports as a URL and not as an attachment ( as the file sizes are quite huge ). Have any one implemented such a scenario ? If so kindly share was it an out-of-tne-box solution or used web services ? Thanks in advance

Hello user9210174,
I have tried in this way.Let me know if it meets your requirement.
Created a dummy report with all the reports embedding as a Link and this report i have inserted into a dashboard then created an agent to schedule this dashboard.
Thanks,

BI Schedule and Presenation Server on Different Servers Configuration

I'm having a problem getting my iBots to run and deliver the information to the catalog with the following configuration:
2 Presentation Servers on Windows with IIS for NTLM authentication (via a Load Balancer)
OBIEE Server and Scheduler, and Presenation Server on Solaris (the Presentation Server on Solaris will be turned off)
The catalog between the 2 Windows Servers are are shared. When I create an iBot on the Windows the request is sent to the Scheduler on Solaris and errors out with the following message:
[nQSError: 77006] Oracle BI Presentation Server Error: A fatal error occurred while processing the request. The server responded with: Path not found (
/shared/_ibots/Test Email from UAT)^M
Error Codes: U9KP7Q94^M
My question is why does the scheduler send the alert to the Presentation Server on the Solaris box and not the shared Presentation Server with the shared catalog on the Windows Servers. Am I missing something in the configuration?
Thanks,
Chuck

I figured it out. I had to re-run the schconfig utility on UNIX and reconfigured the server from localhost:9710 to the actual server name.
