SNP Keyfigure Explaination

Hi All,
Where can I find a document which explains how the SNP keyfigures are calculated
Eg;
Stock on hand =( Planned Reciept + stock from R/3 + production planned or ,,,)
Supply Shortage = Total Demand-Total Reciept-stocks
Thanks
Ravi

Go to SNP > Environment > Macro Work bench
For a given planning book/data view, choose a macro from depo. Drag it to central portion of screen. Check the formula written there.
Usually this is not required as most of the formulae can be judged by common sense.

SNP keyfigure function

HI
Is it possible to create /define new SNP Keyfigure function in the system in the Planning Area to assign to own keyfigures???
Umesh

Hello Umesh,
To classify forecast even if you are maintaining different key figures you need to release them in diferent category.
I think you are forecasting at a descriptive charachteristic level like channel or customer and want to relase it to different categories, first have you configured the new category group that you have defined against the key figure in Planning Area.
Then to release the demand into corresponding category you need to create a background job for release of demand from DP to SNP, you can check in the product view if the demand has been mapped to corresponding category.
I think once this is done prioritization using descriptive charachteristic shouldnt be a problem.
Thanks,
Sanjog

Add new keyfigure in SNP PB

Hello,
I need to add a new key figure in SNP PB to input values manually.
I was trying to use a standard KF that is already in PA and that we are not using but when I try to change this KF in tcode /SAPAPO/SDP8B to set an input/output row, system gives me this message when saving:
"Key figure <Aggregated distribution receipt (plnd)> must not be set to ready for input".
I only have a few KF left to use and all gives me this error except 9AAFCST, but this one does not allow negative values (system set to 0) and the row I need is to input values than with a macro should change the Total Demand (to add or diminute).
Anyone knows how can I do this?
Thanks,
Teresa

Hi,
what do you mean by a Z Time-series keyfigure, how can I do that?
We can create a new keyfigure Z and add it to PA and PB? I just want a simple input keyfigure to use in a macro to sum to the real standard forecast that comes frm DP.
Regards,
Teresa

Hiding and deleting keyfigures in SNP PB?

Hi All,
I am new to SNP and working on SCM 5.0
1) How do I make a copy of SNP planning book data view to make changes to keyfigures in PB?
Task 1: How do I hide some keyfigures?
Task 2: How do I delete some figures?
In both the tasks I am trying to see how it affects the associated macro before and after...
Thanks in advance
..Pooja

Pooja,
You can hide key figure by going to tcode /SAPAPO/SDP94 than click on the design button , next click on the top left corner of the grid it will select all the cells.
Next right click and than go to manage hidden rows, there you can pick key figure you wants to hide.

Could some one explain the "Preparationu201D and u201CTechnical Setup" of apo snp

Hi,
Can you go through the following threads?

Please let me know if you need more information.

Can any explain APO -DP/SNP production support.

Hi sap gurus..
this is suresh ,i am new for APO -DP/SNP production support,
exactly what my role and responsibilities in production support,what i can do
please any one healp me i am very thankful to them.
regards
suresh kumar

Hi Suresh,
In DP/SNP production support,
1) You need to monitor business related background jobs on daily/weekly/monthly basis
2) You need to analyse and take corrective actions for failed jobs
3) Any production related issue, you may receive tickets and accordingly you need to analyse the issue and find out suitable solutions in line with client
4) Documentation activities if any needs to be carried out
5) For system downtimes/incidents, suitable back ups/job retriggerings needs to be done
6) In DP, updation of CVCs/planning book data extraction if any needs to be carried out.

Could not release my own Key Figure from DP to SNP

Hi SAP Experts,
As requirement, I have to run forecast for three Key Figures in Demand Planning (DP): Z_FK1, Z_KFK2, Z_FK3. Unit of measure of these Keyfigure are VND (currency Viet Nam Dong).
I added these Key Figures to DP Planning Area with name Z_DPPlan01.
I created a new Planning Area in SNP with name: Z_9ASNP02 by coppying from the standard 9ASNP02. Then I added the above Key Figures (Z_FK1, Z_KFK2, Z_FK3) into Z_9ASNP02 planning area.
After I runing forecast in DP, I tried to release value of three Key Figures into SNP with tcode: /n/sapapo/mc90. Although system informs that u201CRelease successfully executedu201D, nothing released from Z_DPPlan01 to Z_9ASNP02 when I check in SNP Planning book.
Question is:
How to configure Key Figures in SNP and DP (Sematic, Key Figure Function, Category, Category Groupu2026) so that we can release all three above Key Figures from DP to SNP?
Thanks very much for your help!
Duyennx

Dear Pawan,
2 . The business requirements are:
Our customer is a bank that has many branches. They want to forecast for each branches:
- The Total money (all denominations) will be issued in next quater (Z_KF1). This base on historical data (Z_HIS1)
- The total money (all denominations)will be received in next quater (Z_KF2). This base on historical data (Z_HIS2)
Base on these forecast KFs, we need to calculate the Average of Total money will be received and Issued in next quarter (Z_KF3 = (Z_KF1+ZKF2)/90.
90 is the number of days in a Quarter.
We need to release the three KFs from DP to SNP for further calculation and reporting. As said previously, I added three time series KFs Z_KF1, Z_KF2, Z_KF3 to SNP Planning Area (Z_9ASNP02)
If could not release, we can coppy. But the problem is that: in DP, beside standard characteristics 9AMATNR and 9ALOCNO, we also added more custom characteristics like Z_TYPE (to generate CVCs and to drill down money by type (cotton, polymer, coin)). So when I run the Tcode /n/sapapo/tscopy, despite of the fact that in u201CCharacteristic Assignmentu201D I only assigned 9AMATNR and 9ALOCNO from source to target, system show message like:
3 combinations not contained in target master planning object structure
Message no. /SAPAPO/MSDP_REL108
Diagnosis
Characteristic combinations exist in the source planning area's master planning object structure that are not contained within the master planning object structure of the target planning area.
System Response
The source data of these characteristic combinations is not written to to the target planning area.
So, How to copy with my case?
4.Please Explain more about:
u201CCreate a third custom category group containing your custom category, and add this under 9AMALO. Give only your category group name & Semantic should be 000u201D
4.1.I can creat a custom category group under menu path:
SAP Reference IMG u2192 Advanced Planning and Optimization u2192 Supply Chain Planning u2192 Supply Network Planning
u2192 Basic Settings u2192 Maintain Category Groups.
But where can I create my custome category? Is this menu path:
SAP Reference IMG u2192 Advanced Planning and Optimization u2192 Global Available-to-promise (Global ATP) u2192 General Settings u2192 Maintain Category
In this path, I can see to folder:
-u201CSAP categoriesu201D: We could not create new category in this folder
- and u201Cnon-SAP Categoriesu201D: I can press button u201CNew Entriesu201D and key in Data like:
oCategory: TT
oCategory text: TT
oCategory Description: TT
oSort String: 99
oCategory type: Requirements (I also tried with Forecast, Stock, Receipt)
And then, press u201CSaveu201D button. But system always create message:
u201CEnter values in work area for non-key fields
Message no. SV174
Diagnosis
An entry has been made for a non-key field in the view or table, which does not satisfy a selection condition stored in the Dictionary or made in the maintenance transaction initial screen.
System Response
The values entered cannot be accepted.
Procedure
Ensure that your entry is correct. This data record will not be displayed if you use the same selection conditions again.u201D
I donu2019t know what wrong here. How to create my custom Category? Here is u201Cnon-SAP Categoriesu201D, Is there any problem if we create category with this type?
4.2 How to add custom Category Group under 9AMALO? Which T-code we use?
5. By the way, Please clearly explain for me:
5.1. What are differences between u201CTime series live cacheu201D and u201COrder live cacheu201D?
5.2. What are differences between releasing KFs from DP to SNP and copying KFs from DP to SNP?
Thanks very much for your help!

New category for SNP planning

Hi Experts,
I would like to bring 'maintenance orders' as a new requirement category for SNP planning. These orders are to be considered as demand element (using a new LC order keyfigure). Customized Order type in order category 30 are available for these maintenance orders, which is required to be mapped in to a new requirement ATP category in APO. Please guide me with right procedure.
Thanks and regards,
Raghav

Hi Raghav,
Good to know that you achieved what you wanted to.
But for our benefit, can you share in more detail, how did you manage to do it?
you stated that you created a new order category ''Order Reservation Withdrawable'', which lets say is ZZ. and you must have added this category to the category group which is assigned to your dependent demand key figure.
But can you share how did you ensure that the order reservations for maintenance orders that you created in R/3 managed to flow to this order category and not to some other category?
Appreciate if you could explain in a bit more detail.
Rgds, Sandeep

Adding Category/Category Group to a Keyfigure

Hi,
I am trying to map a keyfigure to a Category/Category Group. However when I am in the change mode in the Planning area, both Category/Category Group columns are displayed as read only. I had even tried by removing te Time Series objects. even then these columns are non readable.
How do i make these columns readable ? any ideas / thoughts?
TIA

Please explain your issue in more detail. Will try and help.
Linking a KeyFigure in Planning area to a Category Group should not have the effect you are talking about. Please check if you did something wrong. Refer to the Setup of 9ASNP02 Planning area on how KFs and Category Groups are linked and then also see the same KF appearing in 9ASNP94 Planning Book in SNP Interactive Planning.
If this is helpfull Please_award_points.

Short, medium and long term planning in SNP

Hi,
can somebody explain me what Short, medium and long term planning mean in SNP?
Lets, say I have this scenario:
If I have a product with SNP horizon of 35 days, which means that the product is planned in SNP only after 35 days from today. Only PPDs deals with orders in these 35 days.
I have a 3 planning books
short term with 30 days from today
medium term with 7 months from today and
long term with 2 years from today.
When I say short, medium and long term planning in SNP what exactly happens in these ?? What do users usually do in these books?
SNP horizon is 35 days and the short term book is 30 days long, in which SNP does nothing. What's the use of this book?
Thanks.

When I say short, medium and long term planning in SNP what exactly happens in these ??
Nothing much from a technical stand point.
What do users usually do in these books?
Check the Time Bucket Profile for the different books. The short Term Book will be in days, the mid term in weeks and the long term in months/quarters etc. The different books allows users to see the keyfigures in different time-based aggregate level.
But if Heuristic is executed then behaviour will be different. Remember SNP Location Heuristic run uses the bucket of the data view to compute the Net Requirement and then try creating Receipts in each bucket within the time horizon of the data view using suitable master data. So if you run Location Heuristic in the short Term (daily) view then you will have many receipts one per day most likely. If you run in mid-term Weekly view then there are less number of receipts one receipt per week till 7 months. likewise for the long term view.
SNP horizon is 35 days and the short term book is 30 days long, in which SNP does nothing. What's the use of this book?
Maybe just to see the data. Location Heuristic run will not generate any new receipt.
Thanks,
Somnath

DP forecast not released to SNP - error "Invalid Data Status"

Hello,
When DP forecast was released to SNP, one material - Location went into error. The error is "Invalid Data Status"
Release to DP to SNP is thru background job, and it check the material status (only material with active status is considered for release).
But for the above error, the material is active.
What could be the possible reason for this error & how can it be resolved.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Datta,
In consistency match, there are multiple objects. Since DP is new to me, I am not aware of the objects that should be selected. Can you tell me which objects should I select for this and what will be the outcome of this.
Also can you please explain me why do we execute his transaction?
Thanks in advance.

Error while intercative planning in SNP

What we did is as below
1.     created MOPS
2.     created Planning area in DP
3.     created time series and assigned version 000 in DP
4.     Created Planning Book and Data view in DP
5.     BW settings to extract data from OLTP and we have the data with planning version 000 in BW info cube
6.     Load the history data from Info cube
7.     Calculated proportional factors for next year
8.     created Forecast profile.
9.     Run forecasting after reading the history
10.     Now forecast is ready in DP.
11.     Released the same to SNP
12.     When I goto SNP interactive planning and trying to load the data using 9SNP94 planning book/Data view i am getting the error - key figure not defined
Can anyone tell me how to resolve the same?

Dears,
I tried all the steps given by you..but all in vain, I will explain you in detail what i ahve done..
In /SAPAPO/MSDP_ADMIN - Administration of Demand Planning and Supply Network
I have defined MOPS with following character(no SNP tick)
9ALOCNO
9AMATNR
Defined planning area with following key figures
SALE_HIST     Sales history
9AREVFC     Sales Forecast
9AMANUP     Manual Correction
9ATOTFC     Total Forecast
9APRICEFC     Planned Price
T_PRICE     Price
Storage bucket profile used is MONTH
Created time series and it is valid up to 31.12.2009
In BW, I have created a infosource/infocube with 9ALOCNO and 9AMATNR as character and SALE_HIST     Sales history as key figure and OCALMONTH as time character. Uploaded data from excel and now I can see the data in infocube.
Now uploaded the data from BW to SAP-APO using - /SAPAPO/TSCUBE - Load Planning Area Version
Calculated proportional factor using /SAPAPO/MC8V - Calculate Proportional Factors.
In /SAPAPO/MSDP_ADMIN - Administration of Demand Planning and Supply Network, created chrematistics combination.
Created forecast profile with UA profile
Defined Planning book and data view
Defined macros in /SAPAPO/ADVM u2013 MacroBuilder
For calculating 9ATOTFC     Total Forecast = Sales Forecast 9AREVFC + Manual Correction 9AMANUP
For calculating T_PRICE = 9ATOTFC * 9APRICEFC
Now I goto /SAPAPO/SDP94 - Interactive Demand Planning and search for my PB
I could see sale history filed is copied form BW.
Run Forecast and got the forecast in 9AREVFC.
Released the DP figures above to SNP using /SAPAPO/MC90 - Release to Supply Network Planning.
In /SAPAPO/SNP94 - Interactive Supply Network Planning, used std planning book/DV u2013 SNP94(1).
When I load I am getting the error as u201Cno key figure selection was foundu201D
Any clue where i am wrong?

SNP Planned Order

Hello Experts,
Scenario: we plan finished goods in SNP & for component level we run MRP in ECC.
I need to understand how MRP does planning in ECC based on SNP Planned order. Why MRP run does detailed scheduling on Finished goods planned order which released from SNP?
I am not getting why MRP in ECC considers material which has X0 MRP type & it does detailed scheduling on finished good planned order & it changes start date & time of planned order which push back or forward sometime in SNP.
Can anyone explain why MRP does detailed scheduling on finished good planned order? And after sheduling why it changes start Date & Time?
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Sujay Joshi

Dear manimaran
I am going through the same scenario as joshi....component planning is done by MRP and planning for final product is done by SNP and PP/DS......say i have planned order from SNP and PP/DS
1. can i subject those planned orders to MRP run again by bringing back to ECC
2.If its is possible how do i see what is the screen wherein i will see that planned orders from SCM has arrived to ECC
3.what tcode do i use to subject those scm planned orders to MRP run
I have detailed a implentation procedure i would be happy if you can say if it is logically correct,if it is not correct then which is the correct logic.
Planning will be divided into two parts ,Plant level planning and supply chain planning, for Plant level planning traditional MRP run is mandatory to determine the requirements at the plant level.
DMS (Distributor management system ) to be used by all customers
Capture the demand from all the market segment into DMS and upload the demand in SCM
Create a demand plan in APO and release it in SAP R/3 Demand management after confirming the demand.
Maintain material master for all the materials on demand.
Maintain relevant production version in C223
Run traditional MRP
Calculate exact quantities by creating production order in R/3.
Transfer the quantities required for specific time period alone to APO,for example if you want to allocate capacity to run 4 shifts transfer the approximate value of quantity alone to APO, the time period may be for 7 shifts or 1 month ,which is industry specific.
Perform simultaneous capacity and material planning in PP/DS (or)
After rough cut planning in APO, SNP perform simultaneous planning in APO , PP/DS ,using any one of standard heuristic like PP_001 or MRP_001 or PP_002
Adopt planning procedure =3
Confirm the production order in R/3
thanks

SNP planned order availability date difference between APO and ECC

Hi,
I have observed that SNP Planned order availability date is not matching between APO and ECC. Details are as follows.
I ran SNP Optimizer with bucket offset of 0.5. After publishing the optimizer created planned orders to ECC, only start date is matching.
Example:
I am using PDS as a source of supply.
Fixed production activity in SNP PDS is 1 day.
GR processing time: 3 day
After running optimizer planned order is created with dates explained below.
Start date/time: 09.05.2011 00:00:00
End date/time: 12.05.2011 23:59:59
Availability date: 16.05.2011 00:00:00
Because of bucket offset defined as 0.5 optimizer planned order availability is start of next monday.
After publishing this planned order to ECC dates on the planned order is as follows.
Start date: 09.05.2011
End date: 09.05.2011
Availability date: 12.05.2011
I have not maintained any scheduling margin key in ECC. Also if I dont define the GR processing time, planned dates between APO and ECC always match. Can anyone explain the impact of GR time on the availability date.
Regards,
Venkat

Hi Venkadesh,
What's "state stamp"? Do you mean different time zone?
note : 645597 mentioned by Nandha is very helpful:
In standard, CCR will use duedate - "the available date of the output product".
Nandha's words "In SAP APO, if the receipt date of the primary product deviates from the
end date of the last activity of the order, the receipt date
always identifies this as inconsistent. You cannot rectify
inconsistencies of this type by using CCR."
I guess in your PDS or PPM, the output product is not assigned to the End of the last activity. Someone changed it?
Please CIF the PDS or PPM again.
If you really want to apply a note, please use note 815509 as you're using planned order,
and system will use order end date in CCR instead.
GR time is always considered. BR/Tiemin
