Selection of suitable planning strategy

Hello All
Here is a requirement for deciding the planning strategy of the material, material is produced when the actual order arrives for it, but procurement of sub assemblies can be done beforehand, to this material belongs 5 subassemblies, out of which 4 are procured before sales order arrival & 1 is procured after sales order arrival, this is so because the assembly which is procured after sales order arrival depends upon the order, i.e. the specification for this assembly depends upon the order itself. I decided strategy 52 for the material but in case of this strategy all the downlevel assemblies are procured before sales order arrival, but in my case one of the assemblies is procured after sales order arrival and remainng procured before. Kindlysuggest the suitable stratey for the material. Expecting your positive & prompt response.
Regards,
J K Tharwani

Hello Pradeep
Thanks for replying to my query, Individual/Collective requirement indicator dosnt work because it only passes the requirement of header material individually or collectively depending upon the setting done in the material master of component, if we have set it to 1 then it passes the header level material requirements individually i.e. for each requirement of header material planned order will be created for component immaterial of the sales order arrival, and if we set it to 2 the requiremets of header level material are clubbed into one requirment and only one planned order is generated for the component.to. Shall look forward to your valuable input.

Link between process order and sales order for planning strategy 52

Hello,
I investigate the possibility of a link between "sales order" and "planned order / process order" for the usage of planning strategy 52 (planning w/o final assembly, make to stock).
I know, this is not conform to the basics of planning strategies (EITHER make to order OR make to stock) and I suspect it would be a modification. Of course we have the alternative "make to order" - strategy 50, but we do not want to use individual customer stocks.
Is anybody there with similar customer requirements or project experiences?
Thanks in advance,
Joerg

Hi Jorg,
To my understanding if you need hard pegging then in SAP only Individual requirement is possible.
Or else you need to create a custom transactions/table to identify Sale order and when ever a process order is created by selecting the sale order record, the process order detials should also get updated against that.
You need to take the help of ABAP expert for this,

Cutover planning strategy doc

Does anybody have Cutover Planning/Strategy document for PI/XI? I do have the ASAP standard.. but I feel there must be one with lot of good information.. please send it to my gsvas81at gmail dot com

Hi,
We restricted from NEUPL................
When i have gone thru entire process my findings for this problem is as follows
1) When A planning strategy is changed in a plant?plants the existing/Pending PIRs need to closed or deleted. If there are any PIRs pending the system can not select new req Type automatically.
2) All the Depending requirements schedule lines and purchase orders for existing PIRs need to be closed before going to new Planning Strategy
If the user follows this procedure then the system will automatically uses "Control of Requirements Type Determination " and a required "Req Type" populates in user parameters. otherwise there will be planning inconsistency
Please correct me if i am wrong

Planning Strategy that drive demand on both PIR and Sales Order

Hi,
Do anyone know is there any planning strategy that i could use to drive demand on both PIR and SO? PS 40 won't suitable as it will compare between PIR and SO and only drive demand on which is higher in term of quantity loaded in. I am looking on a planning strategy which will sum up both PIR and SO as total demand.
Thank you.

Hi,
Try Planning Strategy Production By Lot Size (30) it will create planned order by mrp run from PIR and SO, no consumption will do for this planning strategy. This planning strategy commonly used where you want to keep existing sales order in MD04 (usually contract sales type, not a direct sales) as a requirement to generate planned order.
Here some brief explanation http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/en/cb/7f93d943b711d189410000e829fbbd/content.htm

Reg:planning strategy

Hi,
what would be the Planning strategy if we have both make-to-order and make-to stock scenario for the same finished product
Regards,
Raj

HI
Normally Str 40 works in the both ways, but its still a Make to Stock stratergy which also considers SO.
but this does not behave as a pure MTO as you would not get the SO reference in production order.
If you want it that way, one option would be to combine these stargtergies 10 & 20 in a Zstartergy group
& assign it to the material. Latter when creating the SO for the line item you the option of selecting
the requirement type, & based on this the Production order would be created as MTS or MTO order.
Hope this helps.

How to change default selection in compensation planning

Hi experts,
We have upgraded our portal to EHP1 sp04.

There is one "Employee Selection" scroll down view, I need the default to be "Direct Reports"
http://rapidshare.com/files/308150359/DirectReports.jpg
The default it shows is "Employees from organizational units", I need to change it to "Direct reports". Can someone tell me how I should proceed about it.
Please guide me

When will EK02 appear in the Sales Order?? For different planning strategy?

Hi Experts,
In our SAP system ,when you create a sales order with a material which planning strategy is
50 Planning without final assembly (MTO) , in the item detail screen , on the "Conditions"
TAB, we will see condition type EK02 and its value.
But when I create a sales order with a material which planning strategy is 40 Planning with
final assembly (MTS),in the item detail screen , on the "Conditions" TAB, condition type
EK02 will not appear.
I have checked the customizing of our SAP system ,as follows:
For planning strategy 50, the Requirements class is "045"(MTO val. with cons.),and on the
configuration screen of Requirements class,we see "Condition type for copying costs from
line items" (CndTyLineItems) is null ,no value ,not "EK02".
And for planning strategy 50,the the Requirements class is "050"(Warehouse consumpt.) and
and on the configuration screen of Requirements class,we see "Condition type for copying
costs from line items" (CndTyLineItems) is also null ,no value ,not "EK02".
And on the configuration screen of Sale Order Type screen(VOV8), we see "Condition type for
copying costs from line items" (CndTyLineItems) is "EK02" for all the sales order type we
have used.
So I am very confused.
Why material with planning strategy 40 there is no EK02 in the sales order?
Why material with planning strategy 50 there is EK02 in the sales order?
Where is the EK02 come from? The requriement class ? Or the Salse order Type?
Are there any other customizing for Condition type EK02 determination?
Thanks very for any reply!!

Hi,
In MTO you will create Process order.
And to Produce a Item you use Sub components that is Raw material
That raw material cost is EK02 which you maintain in the Material Master - Accounting View 1.
You can see cost in the Process Order also .
Note : Dont post same in different posts

MRP exception message 64 and planning strategy group 52

Hi Gurus,
I have done extensive search online in the forum to find the route cause why we are getting MRP exception message 64 for a specific material in one of our plants. This exception message does not occur for the same materials which is also produced in another plant.
I was just wondering whether the planning strategy group of 52 in MRP 3 view would have any effect on the frequent occurrence of exception message 64. I know that the 64 message occurs when the routing time is higher than the in house production time. If that's the case where to look for in routing to correct this, apart from this do we need to look at work centers and other details. I'm not a PP person but still was curious to know see if i could take a shot at it.
Also the MRP settings that we follow in the plant where this problem does not occur is NETCH, Create PR - 2, Schedule lines - 3, create MRP list - 1, Planning mode - 3, scheduling -2
in the plant where the 64 message occurs quite often is Netch, Create PR -2, Schedule lines - 3, create MRP list - 1, planning mode - 1, Schdeduliing - 1
I was thinking do MRP settings and planning strategy group would have any impact on why we are getting the 64 wexception message
Because of this 63 exception message, the downstream components are getting wrong signals.
Thanks
Ravi

Hello Ravi
Generallt, exception message "64 - Production finish after order finish" is triggered when the order start date is in the past and system automatically changes to forward scheduling to calculate the finish date.
Note 1913017 explains how the order basic date is calculated and adjusted in case of forward scheduling, however, you are using strategy 52 and this is a very special scenario, whever VP planned orders are generated.
The VP planned orders will always be adjusted to the requirements date even if the requirements date is in the past. This is a special feature in the planning segment, since these orders are only kind of 'virtual' planned orders. These orders only have to provide the demand requirements for the components in time.
Therefore, there is a relationship between strategy 52 (VP planned order) and the exception message observed.

Reg:Planning Strategy 40

Hi friends,
i need to know about planning strategy 40.
For EX:
1. suppose if we have planned and created PIR from january to march(quarterly plan) for any product, now if we want to change the plan how the system will behave..can we change the PIR which we have generated from JANUARY TO march.
If it is possible to chnage ,,how to change the PIR..what will be the impacts.
2' Can we create another PIR once again from january to march...or feB to march apart from existing PIR
3. suppose if i have created PIR from january to march , and splitted into daily plan, in between if the sales orders comes how this planning strategy 40 will behave.As it is make to stock.
For Ex:
We have planned 1000 numbers in the month of january, daily 50numbers production.
Suppose if we get sales order for another 2000 apart from our planning 1000numbers ,how this planning strategy will behave.
Thanks in addvance.

Dear
Planning startegy 40 works like follows :
It is basically Consumption of PIR not Reduction of PIR .
Example :Let say you have PIR for 1000 for January and it is appearing in MD04
Now you have sales order for another 2000 for same month .Here PIR quantity is less than the Sales Order Qty ! Now run MRP -MD03/MD02 -NETCH , 2,1,3,3,2 and check the Result .Here PIR will be vanished and PR/Planned of 2000PC will be appearing in MD04.So PIR is consumed by Sales Order .
Now you have PIR for 2000 and you have sales order for another 1000 for same month .Here PIR quantity is more than the Sales Order Qty ! If you goto MD04-Sales Order will not appear at all .That means Sales Order is geting fullfilled by PIR deamnd. Now run MRP -MD03/MD02 -NETCH , 2,1,3,3,2 and check the Result .Here Sales will be vanished and PR/Planned of 2000PC will be appearing in MD04.
Refer : Re: Industry wise planning strategy usage
Answer of your questions :
1.You can goto MD62-Change and add PIR questiy at Material level , Plan Numbers , Product Group Level
2.You can create but it will update th exsiting motnhly requirement in the same planning table in MD62
3.This question is answerd in the above explanation .
Hope it helps

Demand management planning strategy

Hi there,
I am trying to set up demand management for simple make to stock. I am using standard requirements type LSF which is linked to requirements class 100.(OMP1) The requirements class has a planning indicator (PLNKZ) set to "1" (net requirements planning) in OMPO. This is what I want as we want the warehouse stock to be taken into account when procurement proposals are generated. The planning strategy assigned to the material master has the "1" setting (net requirements planning). However when I run MRP after entering planned independent requirements for LSF (MD61), the purchasing requisitions proposed are just for the independent requirements and ignore warehouse stock. There is a line in the Stock / Requirements list that says "Gross Requirements Planning" Does anyone know where it is picking up "Gross Requirements Planning" instead of Net Requirements Planning (i.e. check what is in stock before creating procurement proposals)
Any assistance is appreciated.
thanks
D

Hi Suhas,
I don't want mixed MRP as such but when I cannot get any procurement proposals (requisitions) when the setting is blank. It may be elsewhere that the procurement proposal is - I am still checking.
However, when I choose "2" for mixed MRP, it does generate requsitions (but gives me the other problem where warehouse stock is not taken into account)
The requirements class 100 has an entry "1" for planning indicator and "1" for requirements category. All other columns are blank at the moment. I am in the process of experimenting with these next.
thanks for your help so far.

Add new variable in Selection ID for planning book

Hello,
Need your suggestion-
We have requirement to add new variable -like SNP Planner in SNP Selection ID of Planning book. Please suggest steps to configure this
Regards
Pandit

Pandit
There are more than one ways of doing this.
The best option is to create a freely definable attribute (Spro --- APO >> Master data >> Freely definable attributes) at material location level and now you will automatically be able to see the attribute when your create a selection id. But you have to make sure you add logic in your material cIF user exit or create a custom program in APO to populate the desired values for the freely definable attribute for all materials in the selection
Thanks
