Scheduling Clarification

Hi Friends
I create a PIR and while doing MRP the system checks the PIR date and does backward scheduling and proposes a Production Start date, if the start date is in the past the system takes the current date as the order start date and proposes a order finish date which is the standard behaviour.
My requirement is the Order finish date(PIR date) to be considered as the order start date and production has to be done.
Eg. XXX Material - 20nos, 20.10.08
while MRP system should consider the date 20.10.08 and give a finish date by considering inhouse production time.
Give me your views is there anyway to configure this.. I checked out in Scheduling parameters for Planned orders but its not working.

Hi,
To find out basic dates this is the formula given below:
For Backward scheduling:
Opening period+ Inhouse prod time + GR processing time
For Forward scheduling:
Inhouse prod time + GR processing time
E.g. PIR dated 30.10.08, GR Processing time 1day, In-house processing time 1day, we run MRP on 20th, the system backward schedules based on GR processing time and In-house production time and confirms the Available for planning date on 30.10.08
Is the above correct???
Above scenario is correct.
Is the GR processing time including during MRP for getting the available for planning date?
Yes. GR processing time included in planning date.

Require small clarification on scheduler

We have a scheduler which runs for every 2min and 5hours a day. From my observation it is find that these schedular are running fine for some duration of time. But after that,the status of scheduler is running but couldn't see any log for that. Even if I make it INACTIVE and run it again it doesn't run.
If we create a new scheduler again and if we run the new scheduler,then its working fine.
What may the reason that the old scheduler stops running and doesn't run again even if we start it ??

If the task is throwing an exception which is not handled and goes up the stack to the quartz scheduler class, it can block the thread.
I would say to check the log file (also see if you have the correct loglevel) for such exceptions.
Btw, is it a standard task ? or a custom one ?

BOM in Scheduling agreement (Type LZ)

HI
I am using scheduling agreement (Type LZ) for maintaining my sales plan for a period of 4 months. (1st one month - daily & subsequent months as weekly requirements). Ii would create delivery and invoices for each supply.
Pricing previously was based on the finished product (basic price for product was available). SO there was no problem.
<u>New requirement:</u>
finished Product above - is made up of components. Now, price should be derived from components. For this I have enabled SD Bom for my finish product.
But the problem is when i use the Finish product code in scheduling agreement type LZ, the BOM doesn't explode (it explodes in other scheduling agreement types, say LP)
Clarification:
1. Is it possible to calculate price of the higher level material by summing up the components' price?, with out BOM explosion
2. Is BOM explosion possible in scheduling agreement with delivery schedule (LZ).
Note:
1. Necessary settings for item category & BOM master already in place.
2. BOM is exploding in sales order and other sheduling types, except doc type LZ.

If it is maintained as error message, it does not allow me to maintain delivery schedule more than target quantity of 100 EA. Also the overdelivery tolerance is maintained as 20 %, so it should allow me to maintain delivery schedule of 120 EA, but it does not allow me to maintain greater than target quantity of 100 EA. Please let me know your comments.

PS Scheduling with subnetworks (PM orders)

Hello all,
I am currently working on a project where I am helping a client use Project systems to manange a plant shutdown. The requiment is to schedule the many maintanance orders (300 +) using project systems to see the critical path and the to manage capacity of the work centers to fit into the time box for the shutdown. I have set up a project down to the network activity level representing the high level process and have started linking PM orders through the additional data b tab, but I have a couple questions.
1.) When you create the link on the additional data B tab. You get a pop up box that will automaticly derive the Project definition and WBS element. Should you link it to all through or should you only select one of the PS objects. What purpose does it serve to show all three or just one PS object?
2.) In terms of scheduling when i attach a PM order to a network and activity it will adapt the basic date of the network activity, however it does not change the day of the network activity to be the same period of the orders attached. I am using buttom up scheduling on the network. Example. I have a network activity with a basic date and duration of 1 day. If I attach a PM order which would require 3 days to complete the network still shows only 1 day. When I reschedule the project should it change the dates on the parent objects? i can see the changed dates when I run a CN41 structure report, but if I look in planning board without the PM orders I don't see the true duration.
Any help would be appreciated on this subject. I am not a PM person. Not sure if this is an issue with a control key.

Hello,
I think Abdul has answered your second question. As far as your first question goes, kindly note that the three fields in the Additional data tab serve a specific purpose:
1) Project definition field is used only for reporting and is something that you will not change.
2) The WBS field is derived from the network activity to which the PM order is being linked. Please note that this field is used to determine the special stock requirement i.e. the WBS from which the PM order will request reservation of goods provided the special stock indicator is used (this WBS can be changed for example a situation where you have done all procurement of the project on a central WBS as project stock and would like to re-direct all PM order reservations to this single WBS).
3) The Network is used to link the actual PM order and is used to help schedule it in case the network dates change.
Hope this clarifies.

Delivery Schedule in Scheduling agreement

Hi
We have a scheduling agreement created in MM in ME31L for subcontract process .
Delivery schedule mentioned for first two line items are 5/07/2008 .
Deliver schedule mentioned for 3rd line item is 02/08/2008 .
Due to this different requirement dates, always delivery split happens .
Regarding this , I request you to clarify below points .
1. I understand these delivery schedule were mentioned when this scheduling agreement was created . Afterwards there is no updating happened for delivery schedules .
Afterwards many deliveries have been generated with reference to these scheduling agreement , user is creating delivery every month with reference to this scheduling agreement . I mean how it is possible to create many deliveries with one schedule date .where as in SD , we need to update schedule lines always.
Thanks In Advance

Excellent information !
I understood what you have mentioned .
Just I need your clarifications for my below queries to fix this issue .
There are 6 line items in this scheduling agreement .
For 3 line items , delivery schedule date is 02/08/2008 . for another 2 line items, delivery schedule is 05/07/2008 . due to this different delivery schedules for line items in scheduling agreement . whenever user creates delivery , delivery split is happening .
In order to avoid this problem , can ask user to change delivery schedule for another 2 line items to 02/08/2008 from 05/07/2008 . ?
If user change this delivery schedule for this line items , is there any ramification in anyway ?.
Thanks In Advance

Delivery Schedule for Scheduling Agreement

Hi Gurus,
Can I do GR for scheduling agreement(with delivery schedule) if the GR is earlier than delivery date? What should I do to be able to do so?
Thank you very much

Hi
'Propose all Items" is ticked so that MIGO proposes all the items irrespective of the delivery date and quantity. This means that even if the delivery date has not yet been reached or the complete qty has been received, the system will still allow you to do the GR.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks

Delivery Schedule (Add in Remarks)

Hi,
We have an issue on the delivery schedule. Currently, user would like
to add in some remarks / note into the delivery schedule for clearer
clarification to the vendor on the confirmed delivery date & qty.
This remarks is helpful to them especially when there is changes on the
delivery qty / date. We tried to explore if there is any function in
adding item text but not able to find under customizing.
Also, tried to use the function on "Field Relevant to Printout of
Changes" for Delivery Schedule in order to highlight the change on the
document during printout. However, it's not successful.
Anybody know whether is this the restriction from
standard SAP function? If yes, can we have customized field in Delivery
Schedule for Item Text? How can we do this? Via screen layout? Anybody know how to do this? Appreciate your prompt response!
Thanks!

Hi Yagnesh,
Thanks for the reply!
May i know the pop up box you mean is triggered during what time? Is it during ME38 - Delivery Schedule maintenance? Or during output trigger @ t-code ME9E? Could I know about the details of which user exit you're referring to?
Is it really not possible to maintain item text / remarks into the delivery schedule? Thanks!

Schedule line date changes after each MRP run

Dear Experts,
Clarification needed on how the system plans the MM schedule lines.
Setting: Start in the past not allowed.
3 days for processing of order
The issue is after each MRP run the system is moving the schedule line to the current date + 3 days for processing + the planned delivery time.
If the schedule line is not firmed, after each MRP run ( which happens everyday) the system is moving the schedule line and then giving an alert saying the " order has to be rescheduled to the previous day"
on the second day after the mrp run the system moves the schedule line again by one more day and gives the rescheduling date as " -2 days from today"
this change is happening every day after the planning run. - because of this there are really no backorders ( schedule line in the past ) in the system. we were not able to know if the vendor is actually delayed in this case.
can you kindly suggest what went wrong here ??
we are using strategy 10 for the planning of procured parts. Let me know if more info is needed.
Note: we are also using stock transfer process for some procured parts. there too the PR date gets changed after each MRP run. There there is no lead time in this case. the order is placed on the same day as the requirement as both plants are nearby. There the PR date is changing everyday to the current date.
your advice would be of great help
thanks
Nagendra Kumar

Hi Caetano,
thanks for your suggestion
Yes, we use firm zone for few of the vendors. there the system don't change the schedule lines.
Also for the stock transfer PR's there is no firm zone and the lead time is one day. in this case it changes everyday after the MRP run.
the stock transfer PR's leads to the creation of Schedule lines from the source plant. Since this PR gets changed everyday. the alerts coming out of MD07 gets changed and we really did not know if this order is delayed or not. In the source plant we use the firm zone to avoid moving the schedule line. But then the alerts are always not correct.
is there any setting which helps in not moving the PR everyday without using " start in the past"
thanks
Nagendra Kumar

How Can I Modify an Existing Schedule using the WS-SDK?

I'm trying to modify the scheduling info of a pre-existing schedule. I've got the schedule details from the database and modifying them, and then called BIPlatform.Schedule with the modified infoObject. However what it does is create a new schedule with the new schedule details, leaving the old one unchanged. Is it possible to modify the old instance, or do I need to delete the old instance andjust create a new one?

Hiya Adam,
Thanks for the clarification.

Multi resource Scheduling with CRM

Hi MRS Experts,
I am an CRM consultant working on a scenario of resource planning in SAP CRM services. We have a scenario where the user creats a service order in IC web client. As soon as he creates a service order two things should happen:
1) Appoint scheduling based on customer availibility
2) resource (employee) scheduling
Regarding this I have following questions:
1) Can MRS work in this scenarion (resource scheduling in/with SRP CRM?
2) Is it a standard integration?
3) What it takes to integrated MRS with SAP CRM?
4) What data points are required to in mRS from CRM to for resource scheduling and appointment scheduling:?
5) If we are correct WFM is not requred for MRS?
6) How MRS integrates with mobile application fro the service scenario?
7) is it advisibel to use WFM or MRS, with CRM?
PS: Guys its great to have such discussion, the doc links mentioned in the first page do not work.
I would realy appriciate if somebody clarifies the above queries as early aspossible as i am struggling at this point a lot.
Thanks in advance.
Please assist.
Regards
Adi

Hello Aditya,
1) Yes MRS can work with CRM. But with the current release in service market place (whcih is MRS 610) it is not possible to have this as out of the box solution.
You will need to enhance MRS to enable this.
2) With the new release, which is due this year, it will be possible to integrate CRM service orders with MRS.
3) MRS provides more functions with respect to service planning. So I would say MRS should be preferred solution.

Is it possible to create a Purchase order wrt a Scheduling agreement?

Is it possible to create a Purchase order wrt a Scheduling agreement?

Hi,
It is not possible to create PO wrt a Scheduling Agreement. Po is basically a formal instruction given to the supplier by the purchasing dept. It is non-binding. Delivery of the goods is not mandatory for a PO. However, in the case of SA, we create SA
and maintain SA Schedule lines (ME38) with reference to SA. The agreement created with vendor is binding and fixed.
Hope it clarifies.

Background jobs are scheduled in future date

Hi
A system which is used by a customer test system was installed and scheduled the jobs in 2010( in future date).
Now we have changed the date to current date. But still all the background jobs are in future date.
There are around 500 jobs are scheduled. And it not possible to reschedule one by one.
Is there any way workaround to change it back to current date format.
Best Regards,
Jai

Dear Jai,
The jobs scheduler should have this dates changed to current. If its a third party system which are running these batches, then be careful to convey the same message to the 3rd party.
If its in SAP, then the schedule change date should execute your jobs. At the same time, ensure that the transports between the test systems match to the destination.
Do let me know for any clarification.
Thanks
Madhu
